It's understandable that these noble ladies are focused on the Emperor, since they are all unmarried girls and shouldn't be allowed to have romantic thoughts.

However, everyone else was focused on Nanrong Jinghua, whom the little princess had mentioned. For a moment, the expressions on the faces of the people in the hall became somewhat strange.

So, the renowned and dazzling young master would actually say such things...

Thinking of someone as otherworldly as Nan Rong Jinghua, who seemed like a deity, saying something utterly ridiculous...

Everyone: "..." cough.

Even Wenren Yu was taken aback. He had always been close to the Emperor and knew a little about Nanrong Jinghua.

Nan Rong Jinghua, the young master of the Nan Rong family, is only a fifteen-year-old boy, yet the Emperor has always been somewhat wary of him, which has always puzzled him.

"Alright, that's enough for tonight. As for this ugly thing, there's no need to trouble you, my dear consort. You have to manage the harem on weekdays, so please don't overwork yourself."

Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall had reached a stalemate, Helian Nie lazily raised his eyes and spoke in a sinister and languid voice.

"Your Majesty, I obey your decree. I thank Your Majesty for your consideration."

Wen Changle's voice remained gentle, but the smile on her charming face was extremely forced.

The birthday banquet that she had carefully prepared turned into a series of unpleasant events. Anyone would be in a bad mood at this moment.

Helian Nie took in Wen Changle's reaction, and a slight smile curved his handsome face and crimson lips.

He raised his hand, and the servants understood. Soon, two guards carried up a box. When the box was opened, inside was a priceless piece of purple coral.

Everyone in the hall was immediately impressed. They knew that such a valuable piece of purple jade coral was extremely rare in their Northern Yin Sea region, making it a truly precious and rare item.

"This piece of purple jade coral was a tribute from the Azure Sea to my Northern Yin. Today, I present it to my beloved concubine to celebrate her birthday."

"Your Majesty, I thank you!"

Wen Changle's charming face showed no sign of being flattered and delighted as she bowed gracefully to Helian Nie in gratitude.

Since the emperor had already sent his birthday gifts, the other ministers naturally dared not be negligent and presented their own gifts one by one, according to their official ranks.

Having survived, Helian Mou Sisi was now being carried back onto the gilded dragon throne by Helian Nie.

The little one, with a slightly dazed look on her rosy face, wondered, "My little one, my little one, you're not going to give yourself to that wicked lady, are you?"

I've saved my own life, this invincible little cutie in the universe! And I've secured a harem of three thousand handsome men too!

The little girl pinched her own short legs with her tiny hands, but no matter how many times she pinched, she didn't feel any pain.

The little girl pouted, and her grape-like, moist eyes turned red, as if she was about to burst into tears.

Waaaaah, I must be dreaming right now. Maybe my own child has put me to sleep, and I've already been locked in a dark room by that wicked queen, waaaaah~!

Just as Helian was lost in his own delusions, feeling utterly miserable.

Suddenly, the sinister, chilling voice of a villainous tyrant rang in my ears.

"How was your leg pinching?"

Does this ugly thing think that just because it let her off so easily, it can act like a tyrant over it?

They're pretty bold, daring to pinch their own legs, and doing it several times.
