Chapter 233 A Gift for Her
Zhuang Yan sat at the door of Liu Shiqi's room, looking forward to it.
With a "creak", Liu Shiqi's door finally opened.
He couldn't help but get nervous.
In fact, he had been staring at the door and had never moved his eyes away.
So as soon as Liu Shiqi came out, he caught his eyes.
Liu Shiqi was carefully dressed up by Bai Shuang, Liu Xin, several hair-do maids and servants.
At this time, she was wearing a flowing purple Yanluo dress and a set of exquisitely carved purple gemstone headpiece on her head.
She was originally beautiful and had a charming temperament. But this outfit makes her skin look even fairer, and her facial features are so delicate and beautiful that they are beyond words.
The overall look is incredibly beautiful.
She is dignified and elegant, yet also a little bit charming and innocent like a little girl!
When Zhuang Yan saw Liu Shiqi's appearance, he was stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.
Liu Shiqi walked up to Zhuang Yan with a smile and asked with amusement, "Brother Zhuang... um!"
"Your Majesty... You are here so early!"
Zhuang Yan was stunned and said with a frown.
"Shi Qi, you can always call me Brother Zhuang!"
"Don't call me Your Majesty!"
Liu Shiqi blinked his eyes and said, "Will this..."
Zhuang Yan simply shook his head, "No!"
"I like you...call me Brother Zhuang!"
Bai Shuang, Liu Xin and the others covered their mouths and laughed.
After hurriedly saluting to Zhuang Yan, he walked out. Leave the two of them alone.
Suddenly, only Liu Shiqi and Zhuang Yan were left in the yard.
Zhuang Yan took a few steps forward, took Liu Shiqi's hand and said, "Shiqi, happy birthday!"
Liu Shiqi's eyes curved, "Thank you, Brother Zhuang!"
"So do I look good today?"
Zhuang Yan nodded blankly and said with a slightly red face.
"nice!"
"Shi Qi is the best looking!"
Liu Shiqi laughed even more happily.
She looked at the handsome man in front of her, whose appearance was even more gorgeous and delicate than hers, and couldn't help swallowing.
[Brother Zhuang is becoming more and more handsome! 】
[It makes people want to have a kiss!] 】
Zhuang Yan's ears turned red, and he couldn't help but think of that day, that lingering kiss.
He coughed lightly and quickly calmed himself down.
Quickly handed Liu Shiqi a box.
"Shi Qi, this is my birthday present for you!"
"Open it and see if you like it!"
He waited here so early today just to be the first to give Shi Qi a birthday present.
Liu Shiqi happily took it and opened it.
There was a green jade hairpin inside.
The green jade hairpin is very special.
Because there is a lifelike little rabbit carved on it, wrapped in layers of petals.
Beautiful and cute!
But if you look more closely, you will find that there is a delicate and beautiful little snake wrapped around the rabbit.
There is a red spot on the snake's head, just like the top of a red-crowned crane, moist and shiny, like a gem.
This should be a small flaw that the jade originally had, but it was cleverly utilized and became the finishing touch.
Liu Shiqi was so surprised that he couldn't let it go.
"Brother Zhuang, what is this?"
Zhuang Yan said somewhat awkwardly.
"Shi Qi once told me that I'm a rabbit and you're a snake! We're very compatible zodiac signs!"
"You also said, snake coiled around rabbit!" It must be a blessing!
“So, I made this hairpin!”
It includes you and me, and I hope we will never be separated.
"Shi Qi, do you like it?"
"If you don't like it..."
Liu Shiqi nodded quickly, "I like it! I like it very much!"
She smiled and said, "Brother Zhuang, your job now is to be the emperor!"
"However, if one day you are no longer an emperor, you can also become a jade carving master!"
“This craft is absolutely amazing!”
[If it were the era of my previous life, Brother Zhuang would definitely be a famous artist! 】
Zhuang Yan felt a little embarrassed after being praised by her.
Hongri came over to announce that the banquet had begun.
Zhuang Yan nodded, took Liu Shiqi's hand and said to her.
"Shi Qi, let's go together!"
Liu Shiqi nodded, "Okay!"
The two held hands and went to the banquet yard together.
Everyone was used to seeing them walking hand in hand.
The coming-of-age ceremony went smoothly.
After the ceremony, everyone dispersed, and those who knew each other gathered together to chat and laugh.
There is an endless stream of displays of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
And Liu Shiqi was accompanied by Zhuang Yan from beginning to end.
There are Red Sun and String Music following him to protect him.
This means that those noble ladies who wanted to become phoenixes and those who wanted to suppress Liu Shiqi and show off had no chance at all.
On the other side, Liu Zheng hurriedly found Hao.
Regardless of whether there were other people around, Liu Zheng said, "Mother!"
"Can you go and give me a kiss!"
Hao, Baishuang, Cui and the royal ladies sat together and chatted.
The Hao family had just returned to the capital and felt a little out of tune with those noble ladies. They had no way of communicating with them and felt extremely uncomfortable.
But for the sake of the Rongguo Mansion and her own children, she had to endure it.
Now, when they suddenly heard Liu Zheng's words, Hao and the others were all surprised.
Although the noble ladies despised the Hao family for being vulgar and unpresentable, they were also somewhat envious of her.
Because Hao’s children are all very capable!
Both daughters are strong.
The eldest daughter is Liu Xin.
She was engaged to Liu Yong, the new emperor's right-hand man. He is also a disciple of a miracle doctor! Great medical skills!
The youngest daughter is Liu Shiqi.
I heard that he has unparalleled martial arts skills and can kill enemies in battle and bring peace to the country. The future queen.
The new emperor loved her as if she were his own eyeballs.
Hao's two sons were also outstanding.
The eldest son Liu An.
He is already married. His wife, Zhang, is the niece of the newly appointed Minister of Rites.
And Liu An is also the eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion and the future Duke.
The youngest son Liu Zheng.
He also has extraordinary abilities. He can speak many languages. If he plans to be sent as an envoy to other countries in the future, he will be a rare talent.
The main reason is that they are all brothers-in-law of the new emperor.
All the noble ladies are very smart.
Liu An, Liu Xin, and Liu Shiqi all have their significant others. And they are all either rich or noble.
The only one, Liu Zheng, is still unengaged, and this is their biggest goal.
If their daughter could marry Liu Zheng as his legal wife, she would be marrying the new emperor. A true royal relative.
So this time when they came, they brought all the eligible young ladies from their families with them, hoping that Liu Zheng or Hao would be interested in them.
Hao didn't understand all these twists and turns, so she asked Liu Zheng directly.
"Zheng'er, which girl do you like?"
Liu Zheng's face turned slightly red when he saw so many ladies around looking at him.
He thought about it, then leaned close to Hao's ear and whispered.
"I, I like Cheng's sister!"
Hao was stunned and asked in a low voice, "Which Cheng family?"
Liu Zheng hesitated, "It's the Imperial Merchant Cheng family!"
Hao was very surprised. "Are you talking about your Aunt Ma's daughter, Cheng Xin?"
Liu Zheng nodded.
"Um……"
