A five-year-old goddess, raised to become an emperor for all time through a bronze mirror.

However, apart from the face that was eagerly awaiting being reflected in the bronze mirror, no other familiar scene appeared.

Her voice echoed in the empty room, but received no response.

Niannian's shoulders slumped slightly, a feeling of disappointment spreading through her heart.

Seeing this, Xiao Ba cautiously asked, "Master, should we continue repairing it?"

Niannian nodded, forcing a smile as she said to Xiaoba, "Let's continue! Xiaoba, we can't give up!"

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she realized that today was Pei Yunjing's birthday!

Oh dear, no wonder I've felt like I've forgotten something extremely important all day!

She quickly raised her right hand and gently patted her round little head a few times, muttering to herself:

"How could I forget such an important day?"

Actually, several days ago, Niannian had already started secretly preparing a birthday surprise for Pei Yunjing!

As night slowly falls, the entire capital city seems to be shrouded in a mysterious and enchanting veil.

In the streets and alleys, one after another, beautiful lanterns lit up, adorning this bustling area like a dazzling galaxy.

At this moment, the palace was bustling with activity, decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, and filled with joy—everyone was celebrating Pei Yunjing's coming-of-age ceremony!

At the age of thirteen, Pei Yunjing was wearing an exquisite black and red robe.

His tall and slender figure appeared even more handsome and extraordinary against the backdrop of his gorgeous attire.

She wore a crystal-clear jade crown on her head, and her originally casually loose, long black hair was neatly tied back.

The childishness that once lingered on his face has long since vanished, replaced by a youthful spirit.

His sharply defined face was as handsome as if it had been sculpted by a master sculptor, and his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes revealed an innate noble temperament.

Her outstanding looks and elegant demeanor captivated many young ladies from official families in the capital.

Every time they saw Pei Yunjing walk by, they couldn't help but steal a glance.

She secretly fantasized about having a romantic and beautiful love story with this elegant sixth prince...

He stood on the high platform in the palace, gazing into the distance, as if contemplating the infinite possibilities of the future.

Looking at Pei Yunjing like this, Nian Nian felt a warm glow in her heart.

She made an exquisite brocade box by hand, containing carefully selected writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, each piece chosen by her personally, hoping that Brother Yun Jing would like them.

The banquet hall in the palace was brightly lit and filled with guests, creating a festive atmosphere.

Taking advantage of a moment when no one was looking, Niannian handed the brocade box to Pei Yunjing's personal attendant, along with a letter that read:

"May Brother Yun Jing's literary talent shine brightly and his future be promising."

Pei Yunjing received this special gift at the banquet. He opened the brocade box, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

He knew this was Niannian's heartfelt wish, and a warmth welled up in his heart.

He looked up, searching for Niannian's figure in the crowd. Their eyes met in the air, and Pei Yunjing smiled slightly, nodding to Niannian in gratitude.

Niannian raised her hand, gave an OK sign, and playfully winked.

Pei Yunjing felt a sweet warmth in his heart when he saw her smile.

After the banquet, when no one was paying attention to them, Niannian carefully tugged at Pei Yunjing's sleeve.

Then, taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, he quietly left the bustling banquet center with him.

The two walked quietly, afraid of attracting attention.

Niannian's long hair cascaded down like a waterfall, the long ribbons tied in it dancing in the air like nimble sprites, accompanying her light steps.

Strands of hair occasionally brushed against Pei Yunjing's cheeks, bringing a gentle touch.

At the same time, a faint, sweet peach scent emanated from Niannian, subtly entering Pei Yunjing's nostrils.

The sweet fragrance seemed to possess a magical power, gently tugging at Pei Yunjing's heartstrings, causing his heart to beat faster involuntarily.

"Niannian, where are we going?" Pei Yunjing asked curiously as he strode closely behind Niannian.

After hearing his question, Niannian turned around and grinned at him, revealing two adorable dimples on her face, and playfully replied:

"This is a secret! Brother Yun Jing, don't be in a hurry, you'll find out soon enough!"

After saying that, she deliberately winked at him.

Before long, the two of them jogged all the way to the quiet Imperial Garden.

Upon entering, Pei Yunjing saw Xiao Ba standing there.

At this moment, Hachi was surrounded by multicolored lights, and its two mechanical arms were wildly waving their sparklers while shouting:

Happy birthday, Pei Yunjing!

Seeing this scene, Nian Nian couldn't help but laugh out loud.

She quickly walked forward, took the sparkler from Hachi, then turned and jogged to a clearing and stopped in front of it.

At this moment, the moonlight, as clear as water, spilled across the earth, illuminating everything around it in a dreamlike and enchanting way.

The pink skirt Niannian wore shimmered with a captivating brilliance under the bright moonlight, like the clouds in the sky.

Immediately afterwards, Niannian squatted down and skillfully lit the fireworks placed on the ground.

A series of crisp "bang bang bang..." sounds rang out, and colorful fireworks instantly soared into the sky, blooming into dazzling flowers in the night sky.

The dazzling lights and fireworks created a breathtaking spectacle, transforming the entire Imperial Garden into a dreamlike world.

With light and quick steps, like a joyful little deer, Niannian swiftly ran towards Pei Yunjing.

When she ran up to him, a radiant smile bloomed on her beautiful face.

Like the warmest, most dazzling sunshine in spring, it was captivating. She tilted her head slightly and called out joyfully in a clear, melodious voice:

"Happy birthday, Brother Yun Jing!"

Just then, a loud "bang" suddenly rang out, shattering the tranquility of the night sky.

Immediately afterwards, several dazzling fireworks shot into the sky like meteors and exploded with a bang in the clouds.

In an instant, dazzling light illuminated the entire sky, as if turning night into day.

Upon closer inspection, the exploding fireworks formed a clear and striking line of large characters in the air: "May Pei Yunjing live a long and peaceful life, year after year!"
