After enduring for a long time, Su Lijin finally left the Queen Mother's Palace.
She immediately went to Xiao Shengxing to ask for an imperial decree and seek a favor, and then she no longer went to pay her respects to the empress dowager.
When Xiao Shengxing learned that he was being bullied, he told her without saying a word.
On Su Lijin's birthday, the palace was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns inside and outside.
Xiao Shengxing took the matter personally and handled it himself. Su Lijin was not aware of the specific details.
Arriving at the birthday banquet, Su Lijin glanced at the civil and military officials, as well as the huge and luxurious venue, and walked to her seat.
In front of her, there were all kinds of cups, plates, and bowls.
After taking a quick glance, she couldn't help but open her red lips slightly in surprise.
All the dishes here are her favorites!
Su Lijin looked at Xiao Shengxing beside her, and saw that his black eyes were deep and seemed to contain a hint of smile. She couldn't help but feel a little hot on her face.
The Queen Mother was not present at all. Su Lijin knew that she was dissatisfied with her, so she neither showed any favor nor paid any attention to it.
All the civil and military officials suddenly stood up and said in unison: "Your Highness, we respectfully wish the Empress a happy birthday and good health. May you live a thousand years!"
Everyone's voices were in unison and deafening. Su Lijin was surprised and almost scared.
This was indeed a grand scene. She even felt that court sessions were no more elaborate than this.
"I thank all of you, my dear ministers." Su Lijin raised her wine glass and clinked it with Xiao Shengxing's.
As soon as she sat down, the palace banquet performance began.
This time the performance was a famous magic trick in the martial arts world. Everyone was watching with great interest, stretching their necks.
Su Lijin had just picked up a piece of food with chopsticks, but when she saw the familiar figure on the table, her chopsticks almost fell on the table.
Tan Tai Chun? !
How is he performing tricks here?
"Good!" Everyone cheered.
"The Prime Minister has good taste. He actually invited this magician. He must have put a lot of thought into it."
Someone immediately looked at Zhang Wenfeng with compliments.
Zhang Wenfeng narrowed his eyes and smiled smugly: "No, no, I am just doing my best for the Emperor and Empress."
Everyone praised again.
Su Lijin was extremely surprised. Was Tan Tai Chun invited by Zhang Wenfeng to perform magic tricks?
This shocked her even more than seeing Tan Tai Chun perform magic tricks just now!
On the stage, Tan Tai Chun held a long piece of cloth in his hand and waved it towards the air. When the cloth fell, there was only a pigeon on the stage. Where was Tan Tai Chun?
"Where are they? Disappeared? This is too exciting!"
Everyone was shocked and amazed.
