The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 321 Birthday Ceremony Preparations in Progress

It was rare for the Empress Dowager to go into her own private vault, so Aunt Zhen and Nanny Gui helped her with reference.

"Queen Mother, what kind of birthday gift would you like to prepare for the princess?"

In response to Aunt Zhen's question, the Queen Mother shook her head.

"I'm not sure yet."

The empress dowager's private vault was filled with golden ornaments and the finest Hetian jade, including white jade, green jade, blue-white jade, jasper, topaz, sugar jade, black jade, and emerald green.

"Why don't I give the princess ten pieces of raw jade and let her make the jewelry she likes."

Aunt Zhen nodded: "It's a good idea."

Nanny Gui agreed: "I think it is feasible."

The Queen Mother's major concern was resolved, and she felt much more relaxed.

"Xiaoyu, what are you and Nanny Gui planning to give to the princess?" She was a little curious.

The good things and gadgets that the little girl usually prepares will also be available to Aunt Zhen, Nanny Gui and others.

Aunt Zhen smiled gently and said, "I prepared a jade bracelet for the princess. It has thirty white jade and sugar jade interlaced."

Aunt Gui sighed when she heard this: "After hearing about your birthday gift, I feel like I can't give mine."

The Queen Mother said cheerfully, "What did Madam Gui prepare?"

"Your Majesty, I have prepared a pair of purple hairpins inlaid with purple Hetian jade."

The Queen Mother was very satisfied when she heard this: "That's good too."

Aunt Gui was not sure, "Are you serious, Queen Mother?"

"Really, that's good. The princess is just a child."

In Fengyi Palace, the Queen was asking the Crown Prince about the birthday gift for her sister.

"Mother, I will not tell you what I am giving you for now, but what do you want to give me?" He was also very interested in his mother's birthday gift.

After hearing what her son said, the queen said arrogantly, "Why, if you don't tell me yourself, do I have to tell you?"

Seeing his mother's arrogant look, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled gently.

"These earrings were given to me by my son. Mother, please tell me about them."

Seeing the Crown Prince's curious expression, the Queen smiled mysteriously and whispered in her son's ear.

"Jade flute."

The Crown Prince was shocked: "Mother is so generous. From this perspective, I feel a little bit reluctant to give you my gift."

The queen reached out and touched her son's forehead: "What are you talking about? This is just the kindness of a brother."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shook his head and laughed, "I was overthinking it. By the way, Madam Luo, what are you guys preparing?"

Nanny Luo and Bai Yuechu smiled at each other.

"A Hetian jade bracelet prepared by your servant."

The queen was extremely surprised when she heard this: "How could you bear to part with that one?"

Nanny Luo nodded: "The princess deserves it."

Hearing this, the queen smiled.

Bai Yuechu smiled softly and said, "This servant prepared a pure gold butterfly hairpin."

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Luo Cheng were astonished when they heard this. Nanny Luo and Bai Yuechu were so generous.

Luo Cheng thought of his golden pig and suddenly felt reluctant to give it away.

After leaving Fengyi Palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked at the people behind him and found them very quiet. He felt very strange.

"Why are you so silent today?"

Luo Cheng said with a sad face: "Your Highness, I feel that the birthday gift I prepared for the princess is not presentable enough."

His Royal Highness sighed: "As long as you put your heart into it, my sister will understand."

Not only Fushou Palace, Fengyi Palace, Zhaolan Palace and Fanghua Palace in the harem are preparing birthday ceremonies, but also Yuting Palace, Kanghe Palace, Xianghe Palace and other palaces are actively preparing ceremonies.

Concubine Zhang specifically instructed Nanny Qin to prepare a birthday gift that would make her proud.

Nanny Qin went to the storeroom and looked around, and finally chose a white jade pillow.

"My lady, do you think this is suitable?"

Concubine Zhang took a look and nodded with satisfaction.

"That's it. Oh, go ask the Tenth Prince what to give him."

"Yes, ma'am."

Shen Jiarou didn't know that everyone in the palace and every family in the capital were preparing for her birthday gift, and some were even having a headache.

The Duke of Zhenguo was discussing with his wife, and both of them had red faces due to confusion.

"Madam, what do you think we should give her? The princess has seen a lot of good things. If it's too low-grade, I'm afraid it won't be suitable. If it's too good, I don't know what to give her."

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo pursed her lips and said, "How about that painting of orchids from the previous dynasty?"

The Duke of Zhenguo slammed the table and said, "Okay, let's go with that one."

That was his favorite thing, and he bought it at a high price.

Seeing that the problem was solved, the Duke of Zhenguo sighed that he could finally sleep well tonight.

Shunpin brought her birthday gift and sent it to Fanghua Palace in advance.

"Meet Madam Shunpin."

"Princess, please don't be polite. I am here to give you a birthday gift in advance."

Shen Jiarou was startled: "Ah?"

Send birthday gifts in advance?

Shunpin asked someone to open an exquisite yew wood box, which contained a musical score.

Shen Jiarou reached out and took a book, and found it was a musical score.

"Piano score?" She seemed to have never seen it before. Could it be a unique copy?

Shunpin smiled brightly: "Yes, I saw that the princess already knew how to play the zither, so I prepared a zither score for her."

Shen Jiarou thanked sincerely: "Thank you, Madam Shunpin."

In Xuanyi Palace, Nanny Wang anxiously searched through all the items in the Thirteenth Prince’s private vault.

Princess Yongkang's birthday is coming soon. How should she prepare for the Thirteenth Prince?

The Thirteenth Prince, who is already six years old, has already understood a few things about how to behave in society.

"Mammy, are you worried about preparing a birthday gift for the Fourth Princess?"

"Yes."

"Don't worry, I'm ready."

Nanny Wang was stunned: "Ah?"

Seeing a pearl rabbit taken out by the Thirteenth Prince, Nanny Wang was surprised. She wanted to pick it up and have a look, but she didn't dare to reach out.

"That's good. The princess' birthday gift is settled. Thirteenth Prince, you are really amazing."

Three days passed quickly, and Shen Jiarou's tenth birthday banquet was held in the palace.

Shen Jiarou wore the bright yellow butterfly palace dress that Aunt Zhenhua had just sent her. When she appeared at the banquet, she attracted everyone's attention.

The Queen Mother looked at the little girl holding her arm and smiled: "From today on, our little girl is one year older."

Shen Jiarou smiled gently: "Grandmother, you are joking again."

Everyone looked at the three people on the high seats and the protagonist who had just walked to his seat.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, Your Majesty the Empress."

……

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty raised his hand and said, "Everyone, please stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, and Your Majesty the Queen."

The virtuous concubine looked at today's protagonist and praised him with a smile.

"The princess looks radiant today."

Concubine Zhang was unwilling to be outdone and praised: "Who says it's not true? Princess is the protagonist today, and your dress is just right for the occasion."

Shunpin covered her face and smiled: "The Imperial Concubine and the Virtuous Concubine are right. The princess is one of the most beautiful protagonists today."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty laughed: "Shunpin is right, the princess is the protagonist today."

One family after another continued to praise the family, and Shen Jiarou almost felt dizzy listening to them.

"Jiarou thanks Sixth Grandmother for the compliment."

……

"Jiarou thanks the emperor uncle for the compliment."

……

Shen Jiarou looked at the master's wife who was praising her and smiled: "Master's wife, you are joking."

Shen Jiarou's face turned slightly red after being praised continuously.

Lady Yong'an looked at her daughter's slightly red face and smiled gently.

When Emperor Wenzong of Tang attended his daughter's palace banquet for the first time, he found it much more interesting than previous palace banquets.
