The imperial concubine is nine and a half years old, and she is willing to overturn the table and re

A pair of bright eyes sparkled with an incomparable sincerity. As Xie Yuantang spoke, his eyes swept from the empress dowager to the emperor, and then to the royal relatives and ministers' families. His tone was sincere and well-behaved:

"Who else wants to see it?"

Everyone: "..."

Lu Zishan, who had barely shown her face to Xie Yuantang a few times, asked in a low voice: "How much...?"

"Not expensive, not expensive."

Xie Yuantang smiled with dimples and said crisply, "After all, today is to celebrate the Queen Mother. Originally, it would cost one hundred taels, but today, only thirty taels will do~"

Situ Yan didn't know his family had this business before entering the palace, but this did not hinder his professionalism.

At that moment, he curled his lips, revealing a professional smile with eight teeth, and said in a friendly manner:

"This price has never been available before, and it may not be available in the future. If you want to see it, don't miss it. If you hesitate once, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

Everyone: “…” Why are you so professional?

Situ Qing: “…” You are quite eloquent when you say this!

Xie Yuantang smiled and said, "Does anyone want to see it? If not, I can leave now~"

Queen Jiang frowned. She was a little curious. She was curious about how Xie Yuantang turned into flowers just now. Not only that, but he actually gave the flowers to Situ Feng instead of her.

But she didn't want to satisfy Xie Yuantang's wishes even more.

But before she could scold him, and before Queen Jiang could say anything sarcastic, Concubine Li, with shining eyes, spoke hastily:

"I want to see it! I want to see it!"

Queen Mother Jiang and Queen Jiang: "..."

Situ Qing sighed, he knew it would be like this!

Concubine Li excitedly urged Xie Yuantang: "I have money, I will give you money!"

Situ Feng followed closely behind: "This princess is also rich! Hurry up and change! This time I want to stand in front of you and watch!"

After saying that, he glared at Situ Xu again: "Xu'er, take out the money!"

Situ Xu: “…” He reluctantly took out ninety taels.

Throw it into Situ Yan's already bulging pocket.

Situ Mo coughed lightly and smiled, "Even though the singing and dancing are wonderful, it's also nice to see other things occasionally."

As he spoke, he took out the money.

Situ Ran smiled helplessly and also took out thirty taels.

Next came Leng Yunchao and Yan Guanqing.

And there is Lu Zishan.

The Minister of Works asked his daughter, "Aren't you and Xie Yuantang at odds? Why are you still giving her money?"

Lu Zishan blushed as she looked at Situ Yan who had collected the money and left, and said shyly, "But...he just asked me to kiss him~"

Minister of Works: “…”

With several princes and princesses taking the lead, and with the influence of Yan Guanqing and Leng Yunchao, more than half of the ministers in the court gave money.

Among the other family members who came, two-thirds of the ladies and young ladies also took money. Even if they originally didn't want to spend money, after Situ Yan said "honey", they obediently paid.

Situ Qing laughed loudly and said, "Haha! Okay, Yuantang, I'll give you thirty taels too. Please act it out again."

He paused, and then added a hint of meaning: "This time, you must make a good flower to give to the Queen Mother."

Queen Mother Jiang: “…” Now that you’ve said this, how can I refuse?

In the end, even Xie Zhaoqing took the money reluctantly.

Xie Yuantang looked at Situ Yan, who had borrowed a bag from somewhere because his purse was full of empty space, and said with a bright smile, "Well, since everyone is so supportive, I will perform it again."

This time she did not use red silk, but only took the silk handkerchief she carried with her.

"Look, I don't have anything in my hand now."

After saying this, she covered her hands with the silk handkerchief.

Situ Feng's eyes were almost glued to her hand, and she even touched it. She took the handkerchief away and covered it again: "Really, there is nothing!"

Xie Yuantang looked at the others again: "Is there anyone else who wants to check?"

Concubine Li was about to speak, but Situ Qing held her wrist.

Situ Qing glared at her and scolded her in a low voice: "Don't go."

Concubine Li pouted in grievance and had to sit there and stretch her neck as far as possible to look around.

Lu Zishan asked cautiously: "Can I...?"

"sure."

Xie Yuantang smiled and nodded. Lu Zishan walked over excitedly and imitated Situ Feng. She poked Xie Yuantang's hand, picked up the handkerchief and checked it. She opened her eyes wide and said, "There's really nothing!"

Now, everyone became even more curious.

The Third Princess who couldn't hide her thoughts and Lu Zishan who was at odds with Xie Yuantang, both said that there was no problem. So was it really possible that something could appear out of thin air?

"Can I check it out?"

Situ Mo walked over slowly and looked at Xie Yuantang with a smile.

Xie Yuantang blinked and stretched out his hand in front of him: "Check it out."

In order to avoid suspicion, Situ Mo only lifted her wrist gently, looked carefully at her fingers and the back of her hand, and lifted her sleeve.

"Mo'er, how is it?"

Situ Qing asked.

Situ Mo turned around and bowed, "Father, I have seen similar performances before. Most of them used clever tricks, either hiding the weapon in the sleeve or having someone to assist them."

"But my fifth brother's wife had nothing in her sleeves, and no one else helped her during the process... Forgive my ignorance, I can't figure out the trick, I just think it's really magical."

Xie Yuantang raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that it would be strange if you could figure out the things in the portable research room.

"Oh?" Situ Qing was slightly surprised. "In that case, Yuan Tang, please change quickly."

"Yes."

Xie Yuantang covered his hand with the silk handkerchief and said with a grin, "Watch carefully, now is the moment to witness a miracle!"

After saying that, she blew a breath on the silk handkerchief, and then quickly turned her little hand over.

The silk handkerchief fell, revealing a blooming... chrysanthemum.

Everyone: “Wow… huh?”

It has changed, and it is indeed miraculous, but you, the chrysanthemum, would never think...

Before I could finish this thought, I saw Xie Yuantang walking up with a chrysanthemum in her little hand and said respectfully:

"Yuan Tang presents this chrysanthemum to the Queen Mother, wishing her a long and happy life."

Everyone: “…” Giving chrysanthemums to the empress dowager, you think of it as sweeping the tomb!

Situ Qing's temples were throbbing with veins. "Don't you have any other flowers?"

Queen Mother Jiang looked at the chrysanthemum with a gloomy expression.

How come the one given to Situ Feng was a peony, but the one given to her was a chrysanthemum?

Seeing that the Queen Mother looked unhappy, the whole place fell eerily quiet.

Just as Situ Qing was thinking about how to smooth things over, Concubine Li spoke up: "This is not an ordinary chrysanthemum! Queen Mother, can I go to your palace to admire it in my spare time?"

Situ Feng: "Me too... um!"

Before he could finish his words, he was pulled back by Situ Xu.

Queen Mother Jiang: “…”

The next moment, Yan Guanqing stood up and said in a clear and elegant voice: "In ancient times, chrysanthemums were used to describe gentlemen. The Fifth Imperial Concubine's action is to praise the Queen Mother's noble character, which is as elegant as a chrysanthemum."

Leng Yunchao also stood up immediately, but he was not well educated enough, so he scratched his head and said only one sentence: "That's right, he is right!"

My two uncles are really good at talking nonsense.

Xie Yuantang's eyes rolled around.

She just wanted to annoy Queen Mother Jiang and also to express her disdain for the old woman, as she had wrinkles as big as a chrysanthemum!
