Chapter 37 A-Bao's Birthday Celebration
"This child is so good-looking."
He seems to be cuter than any other royal heir.
Being praised by the Queen Mother, A-Bao opened his mouth and grinned.
[Yeah, the Queen Mother complimented me.]
[Hello, Queen Mother, it's our first time to meet. I am your granddaughter.]
The smile on the corners of the Queen Mother's lips froze.
I heard it again!
I heard it again!
Sure enough!
She she she can hear A-Bao's thoughts.
Having lived for many years, the Queen Mother has seen all kinds of storms, but this is the first time she has encountered such a strange thing.
"A-Bao?"
[Yes, Queen Mother, I'm here.] The Queen Mother
: "..."
It's true!
Once or twice is an auditory hallucination.
Three or four times is not.
The Queen Mother was afraid that her arm would tremble and A-Bao would fall again.
Alas.
The Queen Mother quickly figured it out. Maybe she was old and dying, and God gave her a third eye.
But why can she only hear Abao's voice and not others'?
The Queen Mother thought that this was the fate between her and Abao.
"It seems that the Queen Mother really likes the Tenth Princess." Concubine Rou said with great envy.
This reminded her of her own son. She didn't know how the Fifth Prince was doing in his fiefdom.
Concubine Shu sighed, "Your Majesty, you should take care of your health."
Concubine De quickly stood up, "Your Majesty, let me hold Abao. This little piece of meat weighs twenty pounds.
Your health has not been very good recently. If you get tired from holding Abao, it will be Abao's fault."
The Queen Mother's smile deepened, "No need, I will hold Abao.
Although I am old, I can still hold a child. Besides, I like Abao." The
Queen Mother's words surprised all the concubines present.
The Queen Mother's health has been particularly bad recently.
She has been bedridden for a while, and it took nearly a year in the palace to get better. Only
then did they have time to hold a birthday celebration, thinking of giving the Queen Mother a surprise.
[Ah, the Empress Dowager is so kind, but her life is short. I’m afraid she won’t live past the New Year.]
Abao sighed while chewing her little paw.
When Concubine De heard this, her heart skipped a beat.
Fortunately, the Empress Dowager couldn’t hear what Abao was thinking, otherwise, Abao would have been killed.
But the third and fourth princes heard it. They
were so scared that their faces turned pale.
The Empress Dowager is going to die?
In fact, the two of them had been mentally prepared.
After all, the Empress Dowager’s health has been getting worse in recent years. The Empress
Dowager pinched Abao’s little face calmly. This girl could actually tell her life span?
[Although the Empress Dowager is a daughter of a noble family, she is known for her talent in training soldiers. When she was young, she followed the Emperor to quell rebellions and went to war to build an empire. She disguised herself as a man to train soldiers and suffered all kinds of hardships.
She can be said to be a heroine of the Tiansheng Dynasty.
But she also developed a chronic disease and contracted tuberculosis, and now her health is getting worse day by day.
The empress dowager was very shocked.
Abao actually knew her past experiences?
[But don't be afraid, madam, with Abao here, madam will surely live a long life.] The empress
dowager was amused by her thoughts.
She only thought of the child's thoughts as a baby, so she didn't think much about it.
This fate.
It is destined by heaven.
King Yan wants you to die at three o'clock in the morning, how could he keep you until five o'clock. The
empress dowager didn't know that Abao was the little King Yan.
Others' words about this life span don't count, but she does.
The empress dowager's life span is about to end, this...
Concubine De looked at the empress dowager worriedly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.
The third prince's eyebrows twitched.
The imperial sister is just a child after all.
With this kind of mentality, how could she really live a hundred years if she said she would wish the Empress Dowager a long life?
She said it as if she could really control people's life span.
The fourth prince's eyes flashed, this little girl Abao was amazing.
Everyone knew that the Empress Dowager was in a bad condition, so they hurried to shorten the birthday time to the shortest possible time so that the Empress Dowager could rest for a while longer.
Those who should present gifts should present gifts.
Several concubines gave gifts.
Some were bought outside by themselves after leaving the palace.
Some were sent by asking someone to prepare them at home.
No matter what the gift was, it more or less showed the feelings of the women in the harem for the Empress Dowager.
"Grandma, this is a big birthday peach sent to you by your son. I hope that all your illnesses will be cured and you will live a hundred years." The third prince immediately stepped forward and presented a big birthday peach.
This is made of pasta, very exquisite, and there is a little man painted on the longevity peach.
It is the current Queen Mother, just a smaller version.
The Queen Mother looked at it and laughed, "It's hard for the third son, he can eat and look good."
The third prince was very happy to receive the Queen Mother's praise.
The third prince couldn't help but sigh secretly.
It is estimated that I won't see the Queen Mother next year.
The fourth prince prepared a peace charm for the Queen Mother.
He also hopes that the Queen Mother can be safe and sound.
"Seventh Brother, have you prepared a gift for me?" The Queen Mother glanced at Di Zi'an who had not spoken from beginning to end.
Di Zi'an's face was pale.
It was because he knew that the Empress Dowager was about to pass away. His eyes were also red, and the whole person looked particularly sad. The Queen Mother
: "..."
If she hadn't been holding A Bao, she would have stood up and hit Di Zi'an with a stick.
"Seventh Brother, look at your expression? Are you
here to wish me a happy birthday, or to mourn me."
[It's over! My brother is about to be scolded! ]
[Alas, on the Empress Dowager's birthday, other royal brothers were praised, but only my brother was scolded. How unlucky]
Di Zi'an sighed.
"You are still sighing?!" The Queen Mother's eyes widened with anger.
Emperor Zi'an quickly picked up the exquisite paper box beside him, "Grandma, please don't get angry first, it's not worth it to be angry and hurt your body."
"You know it's not worth it, but you still make me angry! You, the Seventh Prince." The Queen Mother really had no way with Emperor Zi'an, the Seventh Prince was here to make her angry, "What's in your little box?"
"It's for Grandma, I bought it for you last night when I passed by the Lantern Festival." The Queen Mother's
eyes fixed, "Cuju?"
The other concubines couldn't help but chuckle. Concubine
Xue: "The Seventh Prince is really creative, he just prepared a ball? This...it won't cost a few copper coins, right?"
Concubine Rou frowned, "Seventh Prince, you are a bit shabby." Concubine
Hui was of a low rank, she just glanced at it and stopped talking.
There was a hint of sneer in that glance.
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 Queen Mother than to give her such a small thing."
How can you give a ball as a birthday gift? It's a Cuju that can be seen everywhere.
What kind of gift is this?
