Chapter 317： In the limelight

"The same is true for the old sister. It's hard to have a birthday. It's true if you want to have fun, but you can't invite everyone, right? Don't make any mistakes when the time comes, and humiliate your good reputation for decades." Madam Zhao's eyes fell on Yue Li, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Originally, Yue Li's identity was very sensitive, but Mrs. Zhao couldn't see that Yue Li was getting better, so she wanted to pick up the conversation.

The smile on Princess Ankang's face remained unchanged, she picked up the tea cup on the table and took a light peck, as if she didn't mean to speak.

However, Li Shuang didn't like Mrs. Zhao's way of accusing Sanghuai. He just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yueli's eyes.

Today is the birthday of Princess Ankang. It is because of Li Shuang'er's face. She doesn't want to spoil the whole banquet at this time.

Everyone looked at the master's house and didn't speak, and they didn't say anything while watching. It's true that the Zhao family is a century-old family, but no matter how powerful it is, it can't be compared to the prince of the royal line, especially this prince was extremely prestigious decades ago.

Only fools will offend.

"Grandma, Shuang'er has prepared gifts for grandma early so that she can have a happy birthday."

Princess Ankang smiled and put down the porcelain cup in her hand and looked at her. "Oh? What made you girl prepare for so long?"

Li Shuang'er was silent. "Grandma will find out in a while."

Mrs. Zhao looked ugly for a while when no one answered her words, she just hummed and stopped talking.

Yue Yingying saw that Li Shuang'er was a little unwilling, but she was an adoptive, what's so arrogant!

"Princess Ankang, Yingying has also prepared a gift for you. I hope that the princess will like it at that time." Yue Yingying will not let go of such a showy thing. Besides, she came this time to please the Princess Ankang and to help herself ascend to the post.

As soon as Yue Yingying left, the expression on Mrs. Zhao's face was wonderful.

Mrs. Zhao stood behind and sneered. After all, she was still younger and scheming, but she didn't think about everything comprehensively, so she would inevitably miss it.

"Wang Hao, the hour is almost up, and the prince asked the slave and maidservant to ask, can we go over to have a banquet?"

Princess Ankang stretched out her hand to Li Shuang'er, and Li Shuang'er stepped forward to help her up. "It's almost the hour, let's go there. Sitting for this time, everyone must be hungry."

"No, I've heard that the chefs of the Ankang Palace are very good. Isn't this just a treat today?"

"Yes."

The ladies and ladies responded, and they all followed out.

"Old lady, Yingying will help you too." Seeing everyone walked away, but Mrs. Zhao was still sitting there, she was a little upset, seeing that she missed another chance to please Princess Ankang!

"What gift did you prepare for the princess?" Mrs. Zhao asked casually.

Yue Yingying's heart jumped, and secretly said that this old woman had a lot of control. "It's okay, it's Daddy who made me prepare until uh." He didn't say exactly what it was.

At the first hearing that Yue Mingde ordered to prepare, Mrs. Zhao felt a little more comfortable.

The banquet was held in the main hall of the Nuan Pavilion, and the men and women were separated. The guests on the male side were already seated.

Seeing Princess Ankang coming in, they all got up and saluted.

"Okay, get up, treat it as a family dinner, don't be too restrictive."

Yue Li wanted to find a remote corner to sit down, but Li Shuang'er pulled her to the front.

King Ankang is an old man who has passed the ancients, his hair is gray, but his eyes are very energetic, and he has an inviolable majesty.

"Let's have a banquet."

"Yes."

The maidservants carrying exquisite dishes filed in, and Yueli who was far away could smell the coveted fragrance.

The cook of the Ankang Palace is indeed well-deserved, and it is truly fragrant!

"This drunk chicken is my favorite, you can try it." Li Shuang'er directly gave her a chicken leg.

Yueli didn't want to be polite, she was hungry anyway!

But someone stood up before the chopsticks in his hand were clamped down.

"The prince, the princess, Yingying has a gift to give to the princess, and the princess is also pleased to accept it." Yue Yingying paid her respects, showing the manners of a modest and polite lady.

Li Shuang'er bit off the chicken wings and curled his lips. "What kind of moth your sister is going to have."

"No way, who will let your grandpa and grandma save you."

"Okay, I also want to see your child's gift." Princess Ankang is still kind.

At this moment, the expressions of Mrs. Zhao and the other guests changed a little.

This month, the young lady in the Prime Minister’s Mansion is really lacking in etiquette. There are more people who are taller than her. Not to mention that the Ankang Palace’s direct items have not been taken out yet, so she is anxious to get out of the limelight. I really don't know how high the sky is.

Yue Mingde felt that Yue Yingying had seized a good opportunity. He was confident that Princess Ankang would like her gift.

Yue Yingying smiled and asked people to bring up her gift. It was a desk with pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it.

Taking such an opportunity, it's not just trying to show off the text, it's really disappointing...

Yue Yingying was extremely confident. He twisted his slender waist, picked up the brush and scribbled a big calligraphy on the paper.

When she finished writing and picked up the paper, there was nothing on it.

Everyone can't help frowning, what tricks she is playing.

When everyone was puzzled, Yue Yingying kicked away the box hidden under the table. In an instant, a group of colorful butterflies flew out, dazzling people.

Those colorful butterflies hovered above Yue Yingying's head, and the last one fell on the piece of paper in her hand. From a distance, all the colorful butterflies formed a big birthday on that piece of paper.

King Ankang and Concubine looked at them, but they had to sigh Yue Yingying's ingenuity secretly.

"Good, good!"

As soon as the princess' voice of approval was uttered, someone responded.

"It's really good. I can find so many colorful butterflies in this winter. I don't know how much effort it took."

"Why, are you sour?"

Li Shuanger disdain. "Her gift is to be ingenious, no matter how good it is, my grandmother won't like her."

"Thank you, the princess, the princess praised, Yingying is also very happy to be liked by the princess."

It was originally a very ordinary polite remark, but it was not that taste at all in Mrs. Zhao's ears!

After Yue Yingying retired, she was full of thoughts about Princess Ankang's impression of herself, and she didn't even notice the changes in Mrs. Zhao.

She can also be regarded as the curtain of giving gifts.

Just when Li Shuang'er was about to send his gift, a man stumbled in from outside. "The prince, the princess, you have to be the masters of the old slaves!"
