He Qiuniang had the steward make the invitations overnight.
The day after the invitations were made, Shi Yu happily rode her big dog to deliver them door-to-door.
Only after receiving Shi Yu's invitation did the officials and civil servants realize what was happening.
It turns out that Princess Shengping is not even a year old.
Recalling the fear they had felt under Shi Yu's control for the past six months, none of them had ever felt time pass so slowly.
However, Shi Yu's first birthday is a big event.
Given Emperor Tai'an's fondness for Shi Yu, he will certainly lavishly celebrate her life.
After all, the current Emperor Tai'an is rolling in money.
He was no longer the impoverished emperor he was just over half a year ago.
As for what gift to give Shi Yu.
Everyone in the court knew that Princess Shengping loved gold.
All they need to do is cater to their preferences.
Sending various gold and silver items will suffice.
However, the officials were quite curious about Shi Yu's return gift.
They remembered that when Shi Yu's two dogs got married last time, Shi Yu's return gift was a ginseng root as thick as an arm.
Its value far exceeded the gifts they gave.
The officials and civil servants all sped up their preparations for gifts as soon as they thought about Shi Yu's return gift.
Shi Yu's birthday was fast approaching.
The servants inside the mansion were all busy.
Jiang Yingxue had already shamelessly sidled up to Princess Xianhe's residence.
The main reason is that Emperor Tai'an was also at ease.
Otherwise, he would get angry just looking at Jiang Yingxue's face, which appealed to both men and women.
Jiang Yingxue only lived in the palace for a few months, yet the concubines and princesses in the harem talked about her every day.
Although Emperor Tai'an has now settled down, he still can't bear to see his women fall in love with other men.
Therefore, as soon as Jiang Yingxue asked for permission, Emperor Tai'an immediately agreed.
He quickly told Jiang Yingxue to pack her things and leave.
"Little Yuyu, I heard it's your birthday tomorrow, so I've come to give you a present."
Shi Yu was thinking about what gift to give in return tomorrow when Jiang Yingxue's furtive head popped out of the window.
When Shi Yu saw that it was Jiang Yingxue, he didn't think twice and threw the dates off the table.
The object was thrown directly at Jiang Yingxue's head.
"Oh no, this is murder!"
Jiang Yingxue shouted and nimbly jumped in through the window, dodging Shi Yu's attack.
Jiang Yingxue, who jumped in, raised her hand and patted the dust and wrinkles off her body.
"Little Yuyu, as the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face."
"I came here to deliver a gift to you, how can you be so rude to me?"
"I'm quite polite to everyone, but not to you." Shi Yu rolled her eyes and glanced at her.
"No way, Xiaoyu, you actually called me inhuman." Jiang Yingxue raised her hand to cover her face, pretending to be sad.
"How come I never noticed before that you have so many things to do!" Shi Yu glanced at her twice.
"Why aren't you staying in your own yard? What are you doing out here?" Shi Yu's sweet voice was aloof.
Actually, she was quite angry inside.
The person escaped from her formation again.
Although she wasn't good at formations, the fact that people kept escaping was really damaging to her reputation as the Great Demon Dragon of the Abyss.
Therefore, Jiang Yingxue's appearance in front of Shi Yu at this moment is a challenge to her abilities.
Shi Yu certainly wouldn't give her any face.
And she hadn't forgotten that this man had fallen for her at first sight.
He even wanted to take her to the sky to be his mount.
She is a mighty abyssal demon dragon.
Its body is as large as a mountain, exuding an aura of power and dominance.
His face was handsome and dignified, inspiring awe.
Most importantly, she possesses a radiant wisdom that allows her to see through all things in the world.
How could a dragon as majestic and imposing as her possibly become someone's mount?
Because of this, Shi Yu had absolutely no good feelings towards the God of War, Jiang Ning.
Jiang Yingxue, "Little Yuyu, you've forgotten."
"As I just said, I'm here to give you a birthday present."
"I spent three days and three nights carving in the courtyard. Take a look and see if you like it before you decide."
As Jiang Yingxue spoke, she walked up to Shi Yu.
She took out the gift she had specially prepared from the brocade box.
"Ta-da..."
"Look, do you like it?"
"I made this especially for you!"
Shi Yu glanced at it curiously, and then felt completely horrified.
"Is this the gift you specially sent?" Shi Yu stared wide-eyed.
"Are you sure this is a gift for me?" she asked again, picking up the feather duster beside her.
"You'd better make sure this is a birthday present for me," Shi Yu said.
Jiang Yingxue looked at the gift in her hand, then at Shi Yu, and didn't notice anything wrong with it at all.
"What's the problem?" Jiang Yingxue asked.
"To express my affection for you, I specially bought a large piece of gold and personally carved a golden war dragon for you."
"Look, this dragon is you."
"In my heart, you are as sacred and noble as this golden dragon."
"Look at this ethereal-looking person next to me, that's me."
"We're good friends, so we should be together."
Shi Yu's face darkened further as he listened to Jiang Yingxue's explanation.
"Then why are you standing on top of me?"
"This one..." Jiang Yingxue lowered her head and thought for a moment.
"The carving happened unconsciously."
"Smack!"
Upon hearing her words, Shi Yu grabbed the feather duster beside him without hesitation and swung it at her.
