marry a princess

Chapter 289

The room was completely dark in an instant, the empress dowager was about to order the maids to light the lamps, when she saw the cloth scroll in Su Yan's hand shining with light, getting brighter and brighter, and the one thousand Chinese characters for longevity seemed to be changing slowly, and in the blink of an eye, the kung fu would appear. There appeared a large golden character "Shou", while the other "Shou" characters next to it were shining with silver light, which was gorgeous and dazzling.

Except for Bai Ziwan and Puyang Qingyu, everyone's eyes widened in shock, as if they couldn't believe that such an ordinary cloth scroll had such a wonderful side.

"Yingying, this..." The Empress Dowager was astonished, she stared at the cloth roll intently, then touched it, looked at Bai Ziwan, and said, "Why does the upper thread glow? Is this fluorescent gold and silver thread?"

Fluorescent gold and silver thread is an imperial product, and no one can use such a precious thing except the emperor.Bai Ziwan quickly said, "No. This is an ordinary silk thread made by a special method, but it has the same effect as gold and silver thread. Now that the windows and doors are closed, the fluorescent thread will shine."

The original disdain suddenly turned into admiration, Bai Ziwan was not arrogant or impetuous, looked at the birthday character on the cloth scroll, and smiled faintly.

"Yingying, this is the ring given to Ai's family by the emperor Taizu. Today, Ai's family will reward her to you." The empress dowager took off the ring and handed it over.

"Yingying dare not accept..."

The empress dowager lifted Bai Ziwan up, and put the ring on her finger involuntarily, "The Ai family said that if you dare to accept it, you dare to accept it."

What does the empress dowager want?Bai Ziwan subconsciously glanced at Yuan Hongyi, saw him nodding, knelt down to salute, and said, "Yingying thanked the imperial grandmother for the reward."

The Empress Dowager patted the back of her hand and ordered, "Open the door. Mother Xi, Qianshoutu's subordinates, bring the peacock hairpin and the pair of Hetian jade bracelets for Ai's family."

The maids quickly hung up the curtains, opened the doors and windows, and the room was suddenly lit up.Grandma Xi took the picture of a thousand years of life, and fetched the things after a while.The empress dowager gave the peacock hairpin to Princess Anning, and the jade bracelets to Mrs. Pond and Xue Ningshuang respectively.

That night.

The crowd surrounded the empress dowager and went to Fushou Palace for dinner. The emperor and empress dowager sat at the head, the empress and concubine Yi sat at the emperor's head and below, Puyang Qingyu sat on the left side of the empress dowager, and the others sat in order of size. sit aside.

Bai Ziwan and the Seventh Concubine Liang were sitting at the same table, with the Pang family and the third concubine Lin sitting at the top, and the eighth prince Yang and the ninth prince Qin sitting at the bottom.

During the dinner, the empress dowager mentioned ice cream on a whim. When the emperor heard it, he was curious and asked the empress dowager. How could the empress dowager know, so he had to ask Qingqing to explain. Qingqing knew that something was wrong, so she kept silent and went straight to the park Zi Wan looked this way.

Seeing that Bai Ziwan was not angry and nodded against her, Qingqing then told the emperor everything about the ice cream.

Unexpectedly, the emperor also followed suit.Yuan Hongyi's face darkened, Bai Ziwan immediately gave him a look and agreed, but he couldn't laugh or cry in his heart.

"Qingqing, my child... Fifth sibling, I'm really sorry."

Seeing the guilt in Pond's eyes, Bai Ziwan shook his head lightly, and said indifferently, "Sister-in-law four doesn't need to blame herself, I was originally going to try something new for the empress dowager and the emperor."

Clever as Mrs. Pond, he couldn't hear the comforting meaning in Bai Ziwan's words, so he pulled Qingqing over, lowered his face, and said, "Qingqing, have you forgotten what your father told you? I will make dolls and ice cream for you again."

"Mother Concubine..." Qingqing wrung the corner of her clothes, looked at Pond's pitifully, saw that Mother Concubine ignored her, then looked at Bai Ziwan, and whispered, "Fifth Aunt, Qingqing didn't do it on purpose." , Tears came down, and Bai Ziwan's heart ached when he saw it.

"Qingqing don't cry, Auntie doesn't blame you." She held Qingqing in her arms, wiped away her tears, and gave her another piece of chicken leg, "Auntie also made a beautiful doll for Qingqing. A doll like Qing will be Qingqing's younger sister, okay?"

Qingqing nodded, with tears still hanging from her long eyelashes.

"Then you have to promise your aunt not to cry. If you cry, you won't be pretty. Aunt likes brave and strong children. How about Qingqing being a brave and strong child?"

Qingqing wiped her face with her sleeve and smiled, "Qingqing will never cry again. Qingqing will be a brave and strong child."

Bai Ziwan hugged her head with a smile, kissed her on the cheek, and patted her little butt, "Go and play. Be careful not to fall."

Qingqing readily agreed, and ran outside, Pond quickly ordered the maid to follow, and said with a smile, "This child can't get close to anyone except me and master, but I didn't expect to be so close to you."

"If my child is as cute and well-behaved as Qingqing, I will be satisfied." Bai Ziwan always felt that many eyes were staring at him when he was talking to Mrs. Pond.

"Don't you just want him to be your son?"

Bai Ziwan smiled, "I'd rather she be a daughter."

Feeling a little bored, Bai Ziwan backed out quietly, walked to the side corridor and sat down, looking at the faintly visible stars in the night sky.

Her clothes were torn, and Bai Ziwan turned her head to see a little girl who was about the same size as Qingqing and was carved with jade, looking at him with a timid expression.

"Who are you?" Bai Ziwan asked in a soft voice, afraid of scaring her.

"I'm Yulin." Yulin tentatively pulled Bai Ziwan's finger, "Auntie said just now that she wanted to make a doll like Sister Qingqing to be her younger sister, and Yulin also wanted it, so Aunt Fifth would do well for Yulin, too?" ? Yulin also wants a younger sister."

This is the daughter of the Seventh Prince?Bai Ziwan always liked children, especially girls, so she nodded, "Okay, Fifth Aunt will also make it for Yulin, and send it to you when it's done, okay?"

The little man tilted his head and looked at Bai Ziwan, as if he was thinking, and then said, "Can Yulin and concubine mother go to Aunt Fifth?"

This little girl is probably also greedy for her snacks.Bai Ziwan said, "Okay, you and Concubine Mu will go to Aunt Fifth's place to play, and Aunt Fifth will cook delicious snacks for you."

Yulin's eyes lit up, she turned her head and shouted, "Concubine Mu, come quickly. Concubine Mu, Fifth Aunt promised to make me a doll and also make delicious snacks for me."

"You little greedy cat." Mrs. Liang nodded her daughter's forehead and saluted, "Qi'er has met Fifth Sister-in-law."

"Sister, you don't need to be polite, get up quickly."

"Why did sister-in-law come out? I just saw Sister An Ning looking for you."

Bai Ziwan glanced at Fushou Palace, smiled and said, "I never like this kind of occasion, so I came out to get some air."

Liang smiled, "Yu Lin, go to see Dad with mother and concubine, okay?" Then he said to Bai Ziwan, "It's cold at night, sister-in-law should not stay too long, so as not to catch cold."

Seeing the look in Liang's eyes, Bai Ziwan was taken aback, and smiled, "Thank you for reminding me, sister, you go first, I'll be back later."

After Mrs. Liang left, Bai Ziwan was still sitting on the corridor, turning around and looking at one place, thinking about Mrs. Liang's words and eyes just now, how could he catch a cold when there was no wind?
"Ah Wan..."

Bai Ziwan turned around abruptly, and couldn't help being stunned when he saw the person standing behind him.
