Chapter 114 Birthday
It was already late when we returned to the hotel from Yunnan University.
Qiqi and Xuxu were not sleepy at all. They ran to knock on Mo Xiao's door in their pajamas.
"Brother Mo Xiao, come out quickly, let's go eat cake——"
Cheng Shuyi told Mo Xiao about celebrating Sheng Hong's birthday.
All of them prepared birthday gifts for Sheng Hong.
The two kids were holding the gifts they were going to give to Sheng Hong, their faces full of excitement.
If you don’t know, you might think they are celebrating their birthday.
Pei Yanli held an exquisite little cake, and several people came to the door of Sheng Hong's room together.
It was Xu Xu who knocked on the door. The little girl even imitated someone and shouted, "Uncle Sheng, room service is here, open the door quickly."
This childish voice calls him Uncle Sheng.
How could Sheng Hong be fooled?
In the room, Sheng Hong was feeling down because he was thinking about his late mother.
Hearing Xu Xu's childish voice outside the door, he composed himself and went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened a crack, two little figures came in through the crack, jumping and pulling at his clothes.
"Uncle Sheng, squat down quickly!"
"Happy birthday, Uncle Sheng!"
Sheng Hong squatted down, and Xu Xu stood on tiptoe to put the birthday hat on his head.
It was also worn crookedly.
Qiqi stuffed the bouquet of flowers in her arms into Sheng Hong's hands, clapped her hands and sang: "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
Cheng Shuyi lit the candles and started singing along.
Only the three of them, mother and son, can sing this birthday song. Pei Yanli and Mo Xiao cannot.
Everyone was doing things together these days, so she didn't have the chance to teach them to sing this song.
But the three of them, mother and son, are enough.
The two kids were singing and making noises, pulling Sheng Hong's hands and spinning around, then taking off their shoes and jumping onto the bed.
The atmosphere was instantly set.
"Uncle Sheng, make a wish and blow out the candles!" After Xu Xu stood on the bed, she could barely see Sheng Hong's face.
She was waiting to spread the cake.
Pei Yanli brought the cake to Sheng Hong. He felt a little embarrassed for a grown man to hold a cake for another man's birthday.
But it's better than asking Cheng Shuyi to do this.
Cheng Shuyi is his wife, how can she hold the cake for another man?
Pei Yanli acted like a regent, glanced at Sheng Hong, and said, "Hurry up and blow!"
Xu Xu was standing by, staring at the cake with her fingers crossed and drooling.
Sheng Hong imitated her movements and was about to make a wish when Qiqi covered his mouth with her hand, "You can't say your wish out loud, or it won't work if you say it out loud."
All right……
He acquiesced to a wish.
When blowing out the candles, the two kids followed suit and then smeared the cream on Sheng Hong's face.
Sheng Hong was slightly stunned.
Cheng Shuyi quickly explained, "This is a birthday tradition here. Smearing cake on the face is a way to wish the birthday person well."
After that, she turned to the two cubs and said, "Qiqixuxu, you can't play with food!"
Um?
Isn't what she said contradictory?
Sheng Hong didn't pursue the matter. He smiled and asked Pei Yanli and Mo Xiao, "My dear ministers, why didn't you even prepare a bowl of longevity noodles for me?"
Pei Yanli put the cake down and said, "Yes, I've asked the hotel to make it."
Cheng Shuyi only prepared cake, and longevity noodles were suggested by Pei Yanli on the spur of the moment.
The hotel kitchen is preparing it now and it will be served soon.
Look, someone is knocking on the door.
The longevity noodles were served.
The noodles are freshly rolled, with seafood soup as the base, crab roe and crab meat as the topping, garnished with green chopped green onions, and a soft-fried egg.
Steaming hot and full of aroma.
Sheng Hong held the noodles, his eyes moist.
Just when I was about to say something sentimental, I looked up and found that the other five people had already cut the cake and started eating a piece each.
The two little ones, Qiqi and Xuxu, had cream all over their faces, looking a little funny.
He couldn't be sentimental even if he wanted to.
"You are not polite to me at all." Sheng Hong had no choice but to eat his longevity noodles.
Cheng Shuyi took out his phone and turned on the TV. "Everyone, please sit down and watch the birthday gift I made for the emperor."
"Oh right! Birthday present!"
Mo Xiao suddenly remembered and took out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Sheng Hong: "Your Majesty, this is a gift from me."
Sheng Hong opened the box, "This is..."
Mo Xiao said lightly, "This is the badge I asked the teacher who teaches me tonight. He said it's the badge of Yunda Academy."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shuyi moved closer.
"This is Yunda Teacher's exclusive badge. Professor Zhou actually gave you his own badge?"
She also has this badge.
But hers is a student badge, which is slightly different from the teachers' exclusive badges.
Mo Xiao didn't understand this.
He just casually asked after class if there was any small item he could give him as a souvenir.
The Master gave him this.
Mo Xiao asked, "Is this expensive?"
"It's not expensive," Cheng Shuyi said, "but it's very memorable. It represents your membership in Yunnan University."
Sheng Hong looked at the badge in the box and liked this gift very much.
This is proof that he has been here and has learned.
The two kids have limited pocket money, and they spent almost all of it yesterday buying food at the arcade.
Together they made a birthday card for Sheng Hong.
Looking at them, Sheng Hong thought of his own children who died young.
In the past few days, he has treated Qiqi and Xuxu as his own children.
It will be so in the future.
Pei Yanli's birthday gift to him was to help him deal with the various forces and escape to Yun City without being discovered.
Let him stay here with peace of mind.
Even if the palace and the court knew that it was his birthday today, they would not reveal it.
“Zheng——”
The sound of a sword cutting through the air was heard, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.
The silhouette of a man holding a fluttering sword under the red moon appeared on the TV screen.
Immediately afterwards, the Kunqu opera "The Washing Silk Story: Hunting" sounded in a bold, passionate and shocking voice, immediately bringing people into the heroic scene of long swords, big horses and fierce winds.
"With a long sword and a powerful bow, I control Jiangdong. Chariots flow like water, horses sprint like dragons, and the mountains and rivers stretch out before my eyes..."
The sad and vast tone is combined with the smooth and flowing movements of the man fighting with a sword in the video.
Arrogant and shocking!
The man in the video is Sheng Hong!
Ever since Cheng Shuyi knew that Sheng Hong was going to celebrate his birthday today, she would look for opportunities to chat with Pei Yanli whenever she was free.
Ask about Sheng Hong's past.
Although Pei Yanli and Mo Xiao were there to help Sheng Hong in the court, as the king of a country, how could he be so naive?
Before ascending the throne, Sheng Hong also went through many hardships and underwent a lot of trials and tribulations.
Except for going to the battlefield.
After hearing what Pei Yanli said, Sheng Hong was very envious of him and Mo Xiao, who had fought on the battlefield and protected the people with their bodies.
But he didn't have a chance.
So in order to make up for Sheng Hong's regret, Cheng Shuyi used video to make it happen for him.
The film switches back and forth between scenes of war involving thousands of troops and the turbulent situation in the imperial court.
Make a video from the perspective of a superior that is both solemn, majestic, and thrilling.
This tells Sheng Hong that he is actually doing a very good job as an emperor!
Sheng Hong choked up and watched the video again and again.
Pei Yanli and Mo Xiao were also shocked.
At the same time, I was shocked.
Sheng Hong had never experienced anything in the video personally, so how could his face appear in it?
Cheng Shuyi deliberately whetted their appetites: "When I edit the video of your trip, you will also appear on TV."
If they wanted, she could cut multiple videos for them to watch in the middle of the night.
