Even if you are unwilling in your heart, he is the emperor and you have to do what he tells you to do.
As for whether it is done well or not, that is another matter.
Xiang Hua smiled and said politely: "Your Majesty, I have already made up my mind. We are leaving now!"
"Ah? Now? Leaving? Where to?"
The emperor was very surprised by this answer. He thought that this matter would take at least half a month to prepare.
The civil and military officials all exclaimed in exclamation one after another. Lord Xiang was indeed very efficient in his work.
What seemed to them to be a thankless and tedious task seemed to be just a matter of a word for Xiang Hua.
Gongsun Tudou carefully reminded: "That... Lord Xiaoxiang, the emperor's birthday hasn't arrived yet, there's still a month left."
The emperor kept silent. Could it be that Xiang Hua has forgotten my birthday?
This matter is only in the discussion stage, so she is ready as long as she says it is ready.
She wouldn't be doing this just to fool me.
The emperor has seen many people who mess around like this, and most of the time he chooses to turn a blind eye.
After all, no one is perfect, and everyone has times when they are dishonest.
But this time, it is his birthday after all. The whole country attaches great importance to it. How could Xiang Hua not take it seriously?
The more the emperor thought about it, the sadder he became. Does this girl have me in her heart?
Recently, even the queen, who had always been very aggressive, has become much nicer to him, and even took the initiative to give him 100,000 taels of silver as a birthday gift.
Other concubines in the harem also gave him various gifts, and some even presented themselves to him.
Some do all kinds of tricks in bed just to make him happy.
The imperial study was filled with gifts from civil and military officials, but Xiang Hua had not given him any gift yet.
It’s really too much that I still can’t remember the date of his birthday!
The emperor's expression gradually became uglier, and Eunuch Liu's heartbeat quickened as he watched from the side.
Is the emperor angry again? Who is this shameless guy who dares to make my emperor angry?
Be careful or I'll cut off your tongue!
Xiang Hua, the instigator, felt uncomfortable being stared at by everyone. She pinched her nose and said, "I know the emperor's birthday is next month, but how can he, as the noble emperor, only celebrate his birthday once?"
This sentence confused everyone. Doesn't everyone celebrate his birthday once a year?
Isn't it the same even for the emperor or the empress?
Everyone was puzzled and could only look at Xiang Hua silently.
The emperor asked, "My dear little Xiang, what do you mean by this?"
Xiang Hua: "Your Majesty, you have two birthdays, one according to the lunar calendar and one according to the solar calendar. How do you think about celebrating your solar birthday first?"
When the emperor heard that he could celebrate his birthday twice, he was instantly delighted.
Then he can receive gifts twice.
The Queen Mother had to give him 200,000 taels of silver, and those concubines who climbed into the bed had to do it twice.
Civil and military officials also had to give gifts again. It really is true that good things come in pairs.
The more satisfied the emperor is, the more sad everyone is.
They had racked their brains, searched everywhere, spent a lot of time and money on giving the gifts this time, and some even emptied their own savings.
But now they are told that they have to do it again, experience it again, spend money again, and work hard again.
Just thinking about it, everyone wanted to cut Xiang Hua into pieces. It was really irrelevant. Why did he come up with such a bad idea?
Xiang Hua didn't think this was a bad idea. She said that she would celebrate the emperor's birthday twice, purely because she really forgot the date of the emperor's birthday.
I came up with this idea in order to get away with it, but I didn't expect that the emperor was so happy.
Let’s do it!
"Okay, twice!" The emperor was very pleased.
"Your Majesty, if you have no objection, please follow me!"
…
A group of people followed Xiang Hua with great interest.
The emperor was full of expectations and he firmly believed that Xiang Hua would not let him down.
Among the civil and military officials, some believed that she must have prepared for a long time in advance, just waiting to flatter the emperor today.
Some people think that she must be fooling around this time. Who would organize the emperor's birthday party and prepare everything as soon as they received the task?
This is too unreasonable!
As they walked, they felt that the road was becoming more and more familiar.
It’s as if I’ve been here before.
The emperor looked around and asked Eunuch Liu.
"Eunuch Liu, have we been here before?"
No matter where Eunuch Liu went, his eyes were always on the emperor, and he didn't care at all about the surrounding environment.
When he heard the emperor ask this, he looked up and around.
Well, it seems to have a familiar feeling. To be more precise, it seems to be a familiar smell.
The officials in charge of cultural relics also smelled that indescribable odor.
A very familiar smell rushed into my nostrils, evoking still new memories.
It was not until the green coriander field appeared that everyone realized what was going on.
So this is the place. Why does it feel so familiar? I just came here two days ago.
The vegetable thief, Murong Xiangcai, was captured alive here two days ago.
After finding out that it was a coriander field, the emperor's mood suddenly changed from sunny to cloudy.
What does Xiang Hua mean by coming here to hold a birthday party for me?
Are you asking me to work in the fields to demonstrate my diligence and love for the people?
This is totally unnecessary. I don’t want to celebrate my birthday like this!
The emperor's mood was all over his face, and Xiang Hua saw it too.
She blew a whistle, and the little conch came slowly over carrying a bunch of things.
