The Legend of Zhen Huan: Year after year, we share the spring breeze
Chapter 38 Birthday 2
The two of them ate a few snacks to fill their stomachs. Zhen Huan sat on the couch reading a book. An Lingrong was a little bored, so she sat aside and chatted with her.
An Lingrong asked curiously, "Sister, what gift have you prepared?"
Zhen Huan asked Jin Xi to fetch a box and open it to show An Lingrong. It was a chrysanthemum bonsai ornament carved from a piece of Hetian yellow jade.
"What about you?" Zhen Huan asked.
An Lingrong rolled her eyes helplessly: "Sister, don't you know how poor I am? What should I do with such an expensive gift?"
Zhen Huan smiled and said, "It's not the price of a gift that matters, it's the thought that counts!"
"Then I will sing a song for Sister Mei, a song that carries my heart!" After saying this, An Lingrong made a heart shape with her index finger and thumb and cast a coquettish glance at Zhen Huan.
Zhen Huan was amused by her actions, "Naughty!"
By the time Zhen Huan finished reading a book and An Lingrong had looked at the flowers on every tree in Sui Yuxuan, Shen Meiyu had not returned yet!
When Liu Zhu returned alone for the third time to gather information, An Lingrong could no longer hold on and fell directly onto the couch!
Seeing that her eyes were blurry and she was extremely sleepy, Zhen Huan said, "Go to bed and sleep for a while. I'll call you when Sister Mei comes back!"
An Lingrong was not polite and lay down on the bed with Su Ye's help.
In the Yangxin Palace, Shen Meizhuang was speechless as she watched the emperor reviewing memorials.
Yongzheng was busy all the time, and Shen Meizhuang sat on the side, flipping through a book, but her mind had already flown to Suiyuxuan.
In the morning, An Lingrong said she would give her a surprise, and she was looking forward to it. Rong'er's thoughts always made her eyes light up.
Alas, how can the old emperor compare to her lovely and beautiful sister at home.
Caiyue was waiting outside the hall and feeling a little anxious. Liuzhu had come three times already. Listening to her describe the taste of the nectar made by Wen Changzai, she was already full after swallowing her saliva.
Shen Meizhuang saw Caiyue and Liuzhu talking secretly outside the palace, and she knew that the two people from Shuiyuxuan had been waiting for her.
When will the emperor let me go back?
I looked at the western clock on the table and it was almost five o'clock!
Yongzheng saw Shen Meizhuang fidgeting out of the corner of his eye and was curious about what could have caused this dignified and serious person to lose her composure.
"Is there something wrong?" Yongzheng asked.
Shen Meizhuang quickly replied, "I'm fine."
"Your birthday should have been a grand occasion, but the northwest is currently short of food and money, and I have ordered a reduction in harem expenses. It's really not possible to have a grand celebration for your birthday. I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult position. I'm accompanying you today as compensation."
"I dare not. I am overjoyed that Your Majesty is accompanying me."
According to what the emperor said, he is not going to let her go back for the whole day!
Shen Meizhuang weighed the options quickly in her mind.
If she misses the surprise, she will regret it for the whole year.
I missed the opportunity to sleep with you, oh well, I missed it!
Thinking of this, she stood up and bowed, "I thank the emperor for his care, but, but..."
Yongzheng raised his head from the vast memorials and asked, "What's wrong?"
Seeing that his tone was gentle and he didn't blame her, Shen Meizhuang became bolder and continued, "When I came here, Rong'er said she had prepared a surprise for me at Suiyuxuan, so..."
"Surprise? What surprise?" Yongzheng was confused by these junk messages, but he instantly became interested after hearing Shen Meizhuang's words. "Then I'll go with you to take a look."
Shen Meizhuang didn't finish her words, "Your Majesty, please allow me to take my leave first."
The emperor is going too?
"Since it's a surprise, let's go quietly. Su Peisheng, no one is allowed to inform us."
Shen Meizhuang was a little worried that An Lingrong would say some nonsense in Suiyuxuan again!
With so many thoughts in her mind, she didn't know whether to leave or stay!
Yongzheng did not give her a chance to think, but took her hand and walked towards Suiyuxuan.
By the time the two of them arrived at the Suiyu Pavilion, it was already dark and the palace servants were busy lighting the lamps.
When Zhen Huan saw Yongzheng, she quickly bowed and said loudly, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."
Yongzheng asked curiously, "Why are you so loud?"
Soon, Yongzheng found out the reason why Zhen Huan spoke so loudly.
"Sister is back, sister..." An Lingrong heard the noise, climbed down from the bed in a daze, and walked out holding her embroidered shoes.
"Sister Zhen, your bed..."
"Cough cough." Zhen Huan coughed hard with all her strength.
An Lingrong raised her head and saw the emperor in a bright yellow dragon robe looking at her leisurely.
Her hair was disheveled, her clothes were wrinkled, and she was wearing embroidered shoes.
Her mouth reacted faster than her brain, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. I have been disrespectful in front of you. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang also quickly squatted down: "Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Yongzheng pulled one up with each hand and looked at Shen Meizhuang, "This is the surprise you mentioned."
Shen Meizhuang was relieved to see that Yongzheng was not angry. She helped Yongzheng sit on the soft couch and used her body to block the emperor's gaze. "Rong'er must be getting anxious waiting. She is young and a bit sleepy!"
The hand at his side waved twice quickly.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhen Huan quickly pulled An Lingrong downstairs to change clothes.
After a while, An Lingrong, with exquisite makeup and gorgeous clothes, sat next to Zhen Huan.
Is it the same person? What a stark contrast.
An Lingrong regretted very much preparing a surprise for Shen Meiyu today. These were not things of this era. If Yongzheng asked her how she would explain it, she might be sent back to her hometown if she was not careful.
Thinking of this, sweat was already flowing uncontrollably.
