Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Zhao Man looked at the Queen Mother and said with a smile: "This gift needs to be seen outside."

"You, you have always liked to tell people off since you were a child." The Queen Mother smiled, looked at Emperor Chen, and said, "The time is coming soon, let's all go out together, just in time to see what gift this girl wants to give to the Yi family."

Emperor Chen nodded, and the princes, princesses, and concubines in the palace followed him and the Queen Mother out of the palace together.

The Queen Mother looked at Zhao Man and asked with a smile: "Can you take it out now?"

Zhao Man nodded, took out a bamboo tube from his arms, lit a fuse coming out of the bamboo tube with a fire stick, and then pointed the bamboo tube towards the sky.

call out!

A beam of fire shot out from the bamboo tube and exploded in the sky.

Everyone was a little surprised and didn't know what she was up to.

After blowing the cold wind outside, Princess Yiyang finally came out of her trance, glanced at Zhao Man, and said sarcastically: "Is it possible, Xiao Man, that the birthday gift you gave to the Queen Mother was just a firecracker?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly noticed that something seemed to light up in front of her eyes. When she looked up at the night sky in front of her, she realized that it was the night sky that lit up.

Zhao Man's firework seemed to have released a signal. After the first explosion, streaks of fire shot straight into the night sky from a distance and exploded at a high place, exactly in the direction they were facing.

When the fireworks exploded, a big word "Longevity" in the sky was clearly visible. Although it quickly dissipated, a new one would appear soon.

The fireworks were dense and continuous, and the momentum was even greater than yesterday. In the garden, the guests attending the Queen Mother's birthday banquet raised their heads and looked to the sky.

People in the capital also hurried from their rooms to the courtyard to watch this rare scene.

Looking at the word "longevity" spelled out by the fireworks, the expression on Princess Yiyang's face was frozen and she could no longer speak.

Everyone was looking up at the fireworks, while Zhao Man turned her head to look at Tang Ning. The fireworks in the distance illuminated her face, reflecting the overwhelming sweetness and happiness in her eyes.

"Man'er, this is your gift..." The queen mother lowered her head and looked at her with a smile, but she saw her eyes looking away, her tone paused slightly, and the two words she said were also covered by the noisy explosion.

She looked at the smile on Zhao Man's face and followed her gaze.

Tangning's eyes only stayed in the sky for a moment before looking back. He had seen this scene too many times, and he had also seen fireworks that were more beautiful and grander than this.

Emperor Chen wanted to make the Empress Dowager's birthday party lively, so the best gift was to follow his wishes. This gift was so lively that the people all over the capital were shocked. It was also unique in form and would not fall into the trap of clichés. .

The fonts in the sky were actually made using the simplest method. Using special fireworks that would not explode after explosion, they were placed on the ground in the shape of the character "Shou" and ignited at the same time to create this scene.

Of course, even this simple operation was figured out after countless trials.

He actually didn't put as much thought into today's fireworks as yesterday, but the number of fireworks was twice that of yesterday, which was enough to set off for a quarter of an hour.

At a certain moment, as if he realized something, he turned his head and looked at Zhao Man who was looking at him with a silly smile. He gave her a smile back, and Zhao Man immediately looked away.

Tang Ning looked away, but she still had some strange feelings in her heart. She looked in a certain direction and saw that the Queen Mother's eyes were also on him.

The Queen Mother smiled at him and looked at the fireworks in the sky again.

After the night sky was bright for a long time, it finally returned to darkness.

Chen Huang looked at Zhao Man and said, "Man'er has prepared this gift carefully."

Rare things are valuable, and today the Queen Mother received more than five Buddha statues of various kinds on her birthday. This kind of unique gift can actually make people feel bright.

Zhao Man smiled and said, "As long as the Queen Mother likes it."

"I like it." A smile appeared on the Queen Mother's face and she said, "The gift Man'er gave me tonight is my favorite."

Hearing the Queen Mother's words, the princes, princesses and concubines behind her showed embarrassment on their faces. No matter how valuable the gifts they gave were, after all, no such alternative gift could please the Queen Mother.

After watching the fireworks, today's birthday banquet for the Queen Mother has officially begun.

The birthday banquet was held separately for the male and female family members. The female family members' side was hosted by the concubines in the harem, but the princesses accompanied Emperor Chen and the Queen Mother on the side of the courtiers and dignitaries.

Tang Ning and Xiao Jue shared a table. Before the birthday banquet started, the eunuchs and maids had already placed food on the table, but they could not enjoy it immediately.

Similar to the birthday of the king, the birthday of the queen mother, etc., there are regulations, and one needs to follow the rules one by one. After finally completing all the procedures, when it was announced that it was ready to start, Wei Jian came around from behind, walked to Tang Ning, and said : "Master Tang, Your Majesty asked you to come over."

Tang Ning put back the piece of dessert she had picked up and asked Xiao Jue to leave a few pieces for him before following Wei Jian.

He walked to the front, bowed to Emperor Chen, and said, "I wonder what your Majesty's orders are when he summons his ministers?"

Emperor Chen looked at him and asked, "Did you just say that the Queen Mother's illness focuses on diet?"

Tangning nodded and said, "If you can pay attention to your diet, the Queen Mother's illness can be well controlled."

Chen Huang pointed to the food on the table and said, "Then take a look at which of these meals the Queen Mother cannot eat."

Tang Ning looked at the food on the table and said, "You can't drink any more sweet soup. It's best not to eat any more desserts. You can eat more vegetables..."

The Queen Mother had a look of regret on her face and said, "Can't you eat even sweet things?"

Emperor Chen looked at her and said, "The queen's health is in serious condition, so it's better to listen to the doctor's advice."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Then I won't eat."

Immediately, a palace maid took away the food that Tang Ning had picked out. Tang Ning screened it again before saying, "That's it. If there's nothing else, I'll leave."

Emperor Chen nodded and said, "You can go down and eat too."

Just as Tang Ning was about to turn around and leave, the Queen Mother looked at Emperor Chen and said, "There will be many dishes to be served soon. We can't just call him over to ask after the last one..."

She looked at Tang Ning, pointed to Zhao Man's seat nearby, and said, "Yi Yang is not feeling well and will go back first. There is a vacant seat at Man'er's place. You can go and sit there..."

Tangning was stunned for a moment, then said: "That's where the prince and princess belong. I, it wasn't appropriate for me to go there..."

"This is the decree of the Ai family." The Queen Mother looked at him and said: "You are not annoyed by the people walking here and there, but the Ai family is still annoyed..."

Tang Ning looked at Huang Chen, who said, "Since it is the Queen Mother's wish, you can just sit there."

"Sir... according to the order."

Tang Ning nodded, turned around and walked over, and sat next to Zhao Man with a dull look in her eyes. ?

Just now, when Tangning stood up and left the table and walked to the front, she attracted the attention of many people.

They were too far away, so they couldn't hear clearly what he said to Her Majesty and the Queen Mother. They only saw that there seemed to be a lot of commotion here, with dishes being added and dishes removed...

When Tang Ning and Ping Yang Princess Zhao Man sat together, everyone was even more confused and completely confused about the situation.
