Chapter 37 Abao's Birthday Gift



"This child is really good-looking."

Seems cuter than any other royal heir before.

After being praised by the Queen Mother, Po opened his mouth and grinned.

[Yeah, the Empress Dowager praised me]

[Hello, Grandma Huang. Nice to meet you. I am your granddaughter.]

The smile on the Queen Mother's lips froze.

Heard it again!

Heard it again!

really!

She, she, she can hear what Abao is thinking.

The Queen Mother has lived for many years and has seen many ups and downs, but this is the first time she has encountered such a bizarre thing.

"Po?"

[Yes, Grandma Huang, I am here]

Queen Mother: “…”

It’s true!

Once or twice it is auditory hallucination.

Three or four times, that’s not the case.

The Queen Mother was afraid that if her arms trembled, she would drop Abao again.

Why.

The Queen Mother soon realized that perhaps it was because she was old and dying, and God had given her a chance to see beyond the heavens.

But why can she only hear Abao's thoughts and not others'?

The Queen Mother felt that this was fate between her and Po.

"It seems that mother really likes the tenth princess." Concubine Rou said enviously.

This reminded her of her own son. She had no idea how the fifth son was doing in his fiefdom.

Concubine Shu sighed, "Mother, you should take care of your health."

De Fei stood up quickly and said, "Mother, let me hold A Bao in my arms. This little piece of meat weighs 20 kilograms.

The Queen Mother has not been in good health recently. If she gets tired from carrying A-bao, it will be A-bao's fault."

The Queen Mother's smile deepened, "No need, I can just hold A-bao.

Although I am old, I can still hold a child. Besides, I like Po."

The Queen Mother's words surprised all the concubines present.

The Queen Mother's health has been particularly poor recently.

I had been bedridden for some time, and it took me nearly a year in the palace to get better.

Only then did he have time to celebrate the birthday, hoping to give the Empress Dowager a happy birthday.

[Ah, the Empress Dowager is so kind, but her life is short. I’m afraid she won’t live to see the end of the year.]

Po chewed his little paw and sighed.

When Concubine De heard this, her heart skipped a beat.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother couldn't hear what Abao was thinking, otherwise, Abao would have been in danger of being killed.

The third and fourth princes all heard it.

His face turned pale with fear.

The Empress Dowager is dying?

In fact, the two of them were mentally prepared.

After all, the Empress Dowager's health has been getting worse and worse in recent years.

The Queen Mother pinched Abao's little face calmly. How could this girl tell how long she would live?

[Although the Empress Dowager is a daughter of a rich family, she is known for her talent in training soldiers. When she was young, she followed the Emperor to quell rebellions and to conquer the country. She disguised herself as a man to train soldiers and experienced all kinds of hardships.

He can be said to be a hero of the Tiansheng Dynasty.

But it also left me with a chronic illness, tuberculosis, and my health is getting worse day by day.

The Queen Mother was shocked.

A Bao actually knew her past experiences?

[But don’t be afraid, Madam Huang. With A-Po here, Madam Huang will surely live a long life.]

The Queen Mother was amused by her thoughts.

She just thought of the child's thoughts as a baby's and didn't think much about it.

This is fate.

It is destined by heaven.

King Yan wants you to die at the third watch, how can he keep you alive until the fifth watch?

The Queen Mother didn't know that Abao was the little Prince Yan.

The life span cannot be determined by others, but it is determined by her.

The Queen Mother is nearing the end of her life. This...

Concubine De looked at the Empress Dowager worriedly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

The third prince's eyebrows twitched involuntarily.

The imperial sister is just a child after all.

With this kind of mentality, how could she possibly hope that if she said she wished the Empress Dowager a long life, she would really live a long life?

She spoke as if she could really control a person's life span.

The Fourth Prince's eyes sparkled. This little girl Abao is so magical.

Everyone knew that the Queen Mother was in poor condition, so they hurried to shorten the birthday celebration to the shortest possible time so that the Queen Mother could rest more.

The gift that should be presented.

Several concubines sent gifts.

Some of them were bought outside by myself.

Some of them were prepared and sent to us by someone else.

No matter what the gift was, it more or less showed the feelings of the women in the harem towards the empress dowager.

"Madam Empress, this is a giant longevity peach sent to you by your son. I hope all your illnesses will be cured and you will live a long life." The third prince immediately stepped forward and presented a giant longevity peach.

This is made of noodles, very exquisite, and there is a little man painted on the longevity peach.

It is exactly the same as the current Queen Mother, just a smaller version.

The Queen Mother looked at it and laughed, "It's hard for the third child to be able to eat and look good at the same time."

After receiving the empress dowager's praise, the third prince became very proud.

The third prince couldn't help but sigh secretly.

I guess I won’t be able to see the Empress next year.

The fourth prince prepared a amulet for the empress dowager.

I also hope that the Queen Mother can be safe and sound.

"Seventh brother, have you prepared any gifts for me?" The empress dowager glanced at Emperor Zi'an, who had not spoken a word from beginning to end.

Emperor Zi'an's face was pale.

Because he knew that the Empress Dowager would soon pass away, his eyes became red and he looked particularly sad.

Queen Mother: “…”

If she hadn't been holding Abao, she would have stood up and hit Di Zi'an with a stick.

"Seventh Brother, look at that expression on your face.

Are you here to celebrate my birthday or to mourn my death?"

[It’s over! My brother is going to be scolded! ]

[Ah, it was the Empress Dowager’s birthday, and all the other brothers were praised, but only my brother was scolded. How unlucky!]

Emperor Zi'an let out a long sigh.

"You're still sighing?!" The Queen Mother's eyes widened with anger.

Emperor Zi'an quickly picked up the exquisite paper box beside him and said, "Grandma Empress, please don't get angry for now. It's not worth it if you get angry and harm your health."

"You know it's not worth it, but you still make me angry! You, Old Seven." The Queen Mother really had no way of using the Emperor's son. This Old Seven was here just to make her angry. "What's in your little box?"

"This is for Grandma Huang. I passed by the Lantern Festival last night and bought it specifically for Grandma Huang."

The Queen Mother's eyes fixed, "Cuju?"

The other concubines couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Princess Xue: "The Seventh Prince is really creative. He only prepared a ball? This... shouldn't cost much, right?"

Concubine Rou frowned, "Seventh Prince, this is a bit shabby."

Hui-bin was of a lower status, so she just glanced and said nothing more.

There was a hint of sneer in that look.

Shu Guiren was a straightforward person and couldn't help but said, "Hahaha, the Seventh Prince is so funny. It's better for you to prepare a box of cakes for the Empress Dowager than to give her such a small thing."

Who would give a ball as a birthday present? It’s a Cuju, which can be seen everywhere.

What kind of gift is this?
