Chapter 106 Who's jealous? 【6】

"Go and play as much as you want, and I'll just help you watch the house." Dugu Lan got up to fetch water, and began to water the ground meticulously.

Lin Xiaoling began to feel that having such a younger brother was actually pretty good.

Five days passed quickly, and Zi Fei's birthday was coming soon.

Concubine Zi is 22 years old this year, which is not considered a big birthday. In addition, due to her special favor, the ministers of the court and the central government have always impeached her, so she herself thinks it is better to keep a low profile.

On her birthday, Concubine Zi only set up a table in Feiyan Palace, and only invited Lin Xiaoling's mother and son and Dugu Lan. Naturally, Nangong Chenyan was indispensable, so he intentionally brought a few ministers over.

Listening to the flattering words of those ministers, Lin Xiaoling knew that Nangong Chenyan must have picked them, picked a few treacherous ministers to flatter him.

However, although Nangong Chenyan loves his wife, it seems impossible to govern the country like this. Keeping so many treacherous ministers by his side will bring disaster to the country and the people sooner or later.

Such a thought flashed through Lin Xiaoling's mind, but it quickly disappeared.

How the couple get along has nothing to do with her. Concubine Zi is her good friend, and her friend's husband treats her friend well, so she should be happy, right?

"Isn't it enough to have a meal by myself? What do you invite these things for?" Concubine Zi also seemed to hate those treacherous ministers, with a respectful expression on her face.

"You are an imperial concubine, and when you celebrate your birthday, you should naturally have the congratulations from the ministers." Nangong Chenyan didn't care, and said to the minister, "Concubine Zi is in a bad mood today, you can put down the presents and go back, don't make any arrangements." Welcome to the banquet."

Several ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, but in the end they had no choice but to put down the gifts in their hands and leave.

Concubine Zi stepped forward to look at the gifts carefully prepared by the ministers, and snorted coldly: "The fat of the people!"

"You are just a concubine, this is not something you should care about." Nangong Chenyan's face was not very good-looking, and he said to the maid beside Zifei, "Put it away."

"Yes!" The maids hurriedly carried down the gifts from the ministers.

Nangong Chenyan sighed and looked at her: "In the past, when they brought gifts, you at least gave them a smiley face and kept them for a meal. How come you didn't even have a smiley face this year?"

Concubine Zi looked at him angrily: "Because I'm bored."

"Okay, today is your birthday, it's up to you." Nangong Chenyan turned his head away and let out a deep breath, "I asked the imperial dining room to cook your favorite meal, everyone must be hungry after waiting for so long. "

Concubine Zi didn't speak, Nangong Chenyan frowned, and turned to look at Lin Xiaoling: "By the way, didn't you prepare a gift, why don't you give it to Ziyi?"

Lin Xiaoling frowned: "How do you know?" She didn't promise that she would give it away, did this guy send someone to monitor him?

"Give it away if you have it, it's really long-winded!" Nangong Chenyan had a dark face.

Alright, for Zi Yi's sake!

Lin Xiaoling pursed her lips, took out the wooden box that had been hidden behind her all this time, and handed it over: "Zi Yi, this is the first birthday present I gave you. I made it myself, and the workmanship is rough, but I think you will like it." of."

"You made it yourself?" Concubine Zi was stunned for a moment, and finally smiled, "Then I have to take a good look."

The rosewood box was opened, and inside was a transparent crystal box. Inside the crystal box were three dolls, two big and one small, two women and one child.
