After the divorce, King Zhan cried and begged me to remarry

Chapter 397 Chapter 3 Nineteen Birthday Gift
As expected, the Queen Mother did not care about the eyes of others, but was particularly satisfied with the birthday gift sent by Chu Nanli.

"Yes, you kid, you have a heart."

Her praise of Chu Nanli made many people extremely angry.

But those people were not stupid and would not anger the Queen Mother at such a time.

"A civilian girl is so bold that she wants to ask for a favor from the Queen Mother."

As soon as Chu Nanli opened her mouth, the Queen Mother guessed her intention.

"You want the Aijia to reward those children with something, right?"

The Queen Mother looked at her with a smile. In the eyes of others, this made it even more obvious that the Queen Mother valued Chu Nanli very much.

In fact, the Queen Mother had heard about Chu Nanli's recent movements.

Especially the matter at the Jiatsyuan.

Because of the Heli incident, she actually had a lot of dissatisfaction with Chu Nanli.

No matter what Ye Yunting did wrong, he was her biological grandson, so she would not be too harsh on him.

On the contrary, for Chu Nanli, no matter whether she did it or not, it was actually wrong.

"It doesn't matter, now that the Ai family is old, it's time to accumulate some blessings for themselves."

"How about this. From now on, the Ai family will allocate part of the birthday gifts they receive every year and exchange them for money to support the daily lives of the children."

The reward given by the Queen Mother cannot be said to be unimportant.

Chu Nanli never expected that the Queen Mother would be so generous.

She originally thought that if the Queen Mother could give her a plaque or something, her Ji Ci Yuan would be related to the Queen Mother in the future.

Now that the Queen Mother has donated money, other people in the capital will definitely rush to send money for the Queen Mother's sake.

Chu Nanli has already received the reward she wanted, so naturally she won't care about the opinions of others.

And the birthday gifts that came after her, although expensive, were not as original as the ones she gave.

The expression on the Queen Mother's face was always one of lack of interest.

But soon, it was time for the princes’ birthdays.

The first thing to be presented was naturally from the prince.

The prince prepared a set of hollowed-out gold vessels. The exquisite patterns formed the three characters "Fu Lu Shou", which looked gleaming and luxurious.

"Royal Grandma, my grandson specially invited skilled craftsmen from the private sector to embed blessings on the surface of these gold vessels. If you look closely, each sentence is your grandson's filial piety towards you!"

Usually in front of the emperor, Ye Yunkuo rarely showed his face like this.

In order to keep his position as prince, he had to hide his talents and pretend to be meek.

But in fact, his ambition is no less than that of Ye Yunting.

He ordered people to carefully prepare this birthday gift for three months just to please the Queen Mother today.

Although the raw materials used were a little vulgar, after looking at it carefully, the Queen Mother did feel the prince's intention from it.

She smiled and nodded: "Well, yes, the prince is interested."

The Queen Mother is actually quite satisfied with the prince Ye Yunkuo.

She was the one who urged the emperor to appoint the crown prince directly.

After all, there is no war now, and it is a time of peace. What the court needs is actually a loyal king.

Therefore, even if Ye Yunting is superior to Ye Yunkuo in every aspect, she still prefers the emperor to pass the throne to Ye Yunkuo.

"My grandson only hopes that the imperial grandmother can live a long life. For the rest, my grandson has nothing else to ask for." Ye Yunkuo received praise from the Queen Mother, but he was still neither arrogant nor arrogant, and did not get carried away.

"The gifts prepared by eldest brother are really exquisite. I'm afraid that as a younger brother, I will be outdone by eldest brother."

"However, my brother is already ready, so I can only show my shame."

Even though Ye Yunting said this, after seeing the prince's birthday gift, he couldn't help but show a proud look on his face.

He knew that no matter how perfect Ye Yunkuo's preparation was, it would never be as good as his!

"Royal Grandma, please also take a look at my grandson's birthday gift."

There was a faint sense of contentment on Ye Yunting's face, and just as he expected, when his birthday gift was presented, many people exclaimed.

There is no other reason. The raw materials for this birthday gift alone are too rare.

There is a huge white marble wall, half a man tall, with countless cranes carved on it, about to spread their wings and fly high.

But this piece of jade is rare in the world.

"My grandson also accidentally heard that such a huge jade stone appeared in the far north. Just half a year ago, he sent people to the north to search carefully. It was not easy to find such a piece, which was just for the imperial grandmother. birthday gift."

Ye Yunting didn't even look at Ye Yunkuo, but the birthday gift he gave made Ye Yunkuo's face turn blue and white.

Just now, in order to show his intentions, he specifically proposed to the Queen Mother that he had been preparing birthday gifts for more than three months.

Now that Ye Yunting said this, wasn't he clearly slapping him in the face?
But in front of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, in order to show his eldest brother's demeanor, he could not say anything.

Ye Yunting believed that the gift he brought out must be the most dazzling at today's palace banquet.

No one else can compare to him.

But he obviously didn't expect that Ye Jiuxiao's birthday gift had not been presented yet.

"What has Xiao'er prepared for the Ai family? Why hasn't anyone brought it up yet?"

By the time the birthday gifts were almost given, the Queen Mother still hadn't seen Ye Jiuxiao.

She said half-jokingly: "The Ai family has been waiting for this birthday gift from you for a year. You shouldn't let the Ai family wait too long, right?"

"How dare you, my son, keep your mother waiting for too long?"

Ye Jiuxiao stood up slowly, and at the same time asked the palace attendants to bring him the birthday gift he had carefully prepared.

Compared to the previous ones who mobilized troops and mobilized people, the birthday gift that Ye Jiuxiao presented could be said to be mediocre.

However, because of his status as regent, no one dared to laugh at him like he did at Chu Nanli.

There was only one medicinal plant in the wooden box.

But those who saw the value of this medicinal material were all amazed by Ye Jiuxiao's generosity.

When the late emperor was still alive, a miracle doctor once presented him with a prescription. The medicine made according to this prescription can bring people back from the hands of the Lord of Hell as long as they have a breath.

It can be called the flesh and bones of the living dead.

It's a pity that this prescription has been passed down for a long time, and one of the medicinal materials in it is extremely rare and disappeared decades ago.

One can imagine the effort Ye Jiuxiao put into finding this medicinal material.

The Queen Mother's hand fell on the wooden box, and she looked a little moved, "The Ai family are old, so you'd better keep such a precious thing to yourself."

"My mother can live a long life, this is my son's wish."

Since Ye Jiuxiao gave away the things, he would naturally not be reluctant to part with them.

This medicinal material is indeed precious, but it still needs to be used where it should be used.
