Song Jinxiu looked at her mother worriedly.

Tian Xinghua froze, looked at her daughter, and asked, "Is she the Grand Princess?"

Song Jinxiu nodded: "This man is just a mad dog, don't mind it, mother."

The eldest princess instigated Princess Kangning to go to the border to harm Su Mo, and she had not had time to settle the score with her. She did not expect that she would even want to slander her mother.

snort! Just wait for me!

It was indeed the Grand Princess. Tian Xinghua gritted her teeth and straightened her back.

She knew that her daughter's official position was a source of jealousy, and the eldest princess had been targeting her, even wanting to kill her youngest son.

This person is the enemy!

She couldn't be timid in front of her enemy. She patted her eldest daughter's hand and said, "Don't worry, mother is not afraid of her."

Perhaps she had met an enemy, and as a mother, Tian Xinghua was strong, so she suddenly stopped panicking and instead knelt down and kowtowed like a hen ready to fight, holding one of her daughters in each hand.

"I respectfully wish the Queen Mother good fortune and a long life.

The Empress Dowager beckoned her kindly, motioning her to come closer, and said, "Thank you, too, for raising Kang Le so well. You should be a role model for mothers all over the world!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

Especially the eldest princess, her face was a little red, maybe because she was angry.

Song Jinxiu blinked, glanced at the Grand Princess, and understood.

It seems that the Queen Mother is deliberately warning the Grand Princess.

I let you make sarcastic remarks, but I will praise the people you look down upon!

It seemed that the Queen Mother disliked the Grand Princess very much, or that the Grand Princess had done something that the Queen Mother disliked, such as speaking rudely to her mother just now and trying to disrupt the Queen Mother's birthday celebration? Or perhaps there was another reason.

But no matter what, with the Queen Mother's affirmation of my mother, my mother can truly stand up straight.

Song Jinxiu kowtowed three times to the empress dowager out of gratitude.

After the ladies of honor had finished their audience, the Empress Dowager moved to the square. The warm sun was shining brightly, and the celebration officially began at this time.

The salutes were fired and the music played everywhere.

The emperor led all the civil and military officials to gather in front of the hall to wish the empress dowager a long life.

The Emperor of Cangwu held a jade ruyi in his hand and bowed, saying, "Your son wishes your mother good fortune as vast as the East Sea and a long life as long as the Southern Mountains." Then, the ministers chanted, "Long live the Empress Dowager." The scene was solemn and dignified.

All the officials stood up, the princes kowtowed again, and then Prince Yin kowtowed with red eyes and a look of admiration, "Mother, I miss you so much..."

Song Jinxiu choked: This Prince Yin, the scene of brothers being friendly and respectful in the court has been replaced by a loving mother and a filial son.

But this Prince Yin is quite handsome. Whether he frowns or smiles, it is a pleasure to look at him.

How could this man be so handsome? Only Concubine Qi could compare to him.

Huh? You know what, Prince Yin and Concubine Qi look quite similar.

She couldn't help but steal another glance at Concubine Qi, only to find that Concubine Qi was looking at Prince Yin with a gentle expression.

gentle?

This icy beauty also has a gentle expression?

Song Jinxiu's heart couldn't help but move.

After Prince Yin and the Queen Mother finished their performance, envoys from foreign countries came to pay their respects.

They spoke different dialects, poor Mandarin, and the same auspicious words.

The people from southern Xinjiang came in dancing.

Song Jinxiu stood up at once.

This group of people is really restless. What are they trying to do by dancing among the crowd?

"Jinfang, you protect Mom. I have to go over there."

Song Jinfang said, "Don't worry, sister. I will always be with mother."

Leaving Su Chuan here to protect them, Song Jinxiu added a peace amulet to each of her mother and sister, then quietly walked through the crowd and came to the emperor, always paying attention to the actions of the Saint of Southern Xinjiang.

Watching the Southern Frontier Saint's actions, Song Jinxiu instructed Eunuch Hai, "Write down the people the Southern Frontier people come into contact with. No one is allowed to come within five steps of His Majesty today."

"Yes," Eunuch Hai gave the order quickly.

Qi Chenghua said: "I have ordered people to keep an eye on it."

The people of southern Xinjiang celebrated in various ways, but it was a safe and pleasant occasion.

After the morning congratulations, it was time for the birthday banquet.

The Empress Dowager's birthday banquet was naturally decorated with lotus bedding, brocade banquets, pearls and emeralds, and was extremely gorgeous.

After three rounds of drinks, the ladies from each family vied with each other to perform. Even Song Jinfang was nominated and went up to play a piece of guzheng.

This time, perhaps because Princess Kangning was not involved and Cui Zixuan was not allowed to sit in the VIP seat, among so many noble ladies and royal relatives, no one dared to provoke Song Jinxiu.

Even Chen Yaer sat properly and was very honest.

Song Jinxiu sat on the female guest's side to accompany her mother. She seemed to be ignored, but she was also happy and comfortable.

Tian Xinghua looked at her youngest daughter who was surrounded by a group of sisters and chatting and laughing, and then looked at her eldest daughter who was drinking alone with a calm face, and her heart was ached.

I have been in Beijing for so many days, and I have one or two close friends. Not to mention my younger daughter, I have several close friends. But my eldest daughter is the only one who is so lonely?

"Jinxiu, do you want to talk to them?"

Tian Xinghua pointed towards the girls.

Song Jinxiu shook her head. "They are a little afraid of me, and I don't have much to say to them."

All she cares about now is the emperor's safety.

In fact, the Saint of Southern Border is not scary at all, as she can also cure the poisonous insect. The reason why she takes it so seriously is that she always feels uneasy, as if something bad is going to happen.

Unable to figure it out, she could only be on guard at all times.

Just when Tian Xinghua was feeling sorry for her daughter having no friends, Lu Qiaoshou, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Works, came over, stroking his white beard.

Tian Xinghua quickly stood up and saluted. Lu Qiaoshou quickly bowed in return and then said to Song Jinxiu, "Princess, Lord Wei and his men want to see you."

Song Jinxiu looked over and saw Left Prime Minister Wei Zhen and Old Prince Hexian waving at him.

Song Jinxiu had no choice but to get up, say hello to her mother, and go over.

It turned out that a noble lady presented a painting and asked Song Jinxiu to be the judge.

"Princess, aren't you bored sitting here with a bunch of women? We've been calling you for ages. What's the matter? Do women's sweet wine tastes better?"

Everyone: "Old Prince, are you having poor eyesight? Princess Kangle is also a girl, isn't she?"

As the old prince Hexian spoke, he said to the young eunuch behind him, "Go to Songhua Courtyard. I have buried a jar of fine wine under the crooked pine tree."

As he said this, he sighed, "That was buried when I was a child. Go dig it out. Today we will get drunk with the princess."

"The old prince's wine is excellent."

Wei Zhen looked at Song Jinxiu and asked quietly, "Princess, could you bring some hangover pills?"

The Jindan Pharmacy's hangover pills have been out of stock since the war in southern Xinjiang. However, Princess Kangle is the owner of the Jindan Pharmacy.

Although today's occasion is the Queen Mother's birthday, the negotiations in southern Xinjiang have failed, and the foreign barbarians are watching covetously, waiting to watch the fun. How dare he drink?

However, if I had the hangover pills from Jindan Pharmacy, it wouldn't be a problem to drink a couple of cups, and I could also confuse the people in southern Xinjiang at the same time.

If the negotiation goes smoothly after drinking, it will be a relief.

Song Jinxiu glanced at the table in Nanjiang, smiled and whispered, "Don't worry, old man, drink. I guarantee you won't get drunk even if you drink a thousand cups. The more you drink, the more energetic you will be."

Upon hearing this, Minister of War Zhou Kunran also came over and said, "Hey, are these hangover pills from the Jindan Pharmacy? Princess, since we serve in the same court, you can't be partial. I don't want more, two will be enough."

Tian Xinghua felt mixed emotions as she looked at her daughter who was surrounded by a group of skinny old men.

Her daughter is only fourteen years old.

Fourteen years old is the age when girls in the boudoir are carefree, playing together, talking about rouge and powder, and talking about gorgeous clothes and hairpins.

But her daughter had no female companions around her, only a group of old men.

Look at these old men, they all look so wretched that Tian Xinghua couldn't help but cover her eyes and couldn't bear to look at them.

Suddenly, a sharp voice rang out, "Do you think Kang Le has no manners? No self-control? He's as ashamed to face people as you are?"
