"Good?" General Situ snorted coldly.”General Situ's tone was strange as he glanced at Situ Honglei. Situ Honglei gave him an aggrieved look.
"Your sister gave you her seat, but you didn't even say thank you. You actually sat down so openly.”General Situ's voice was not loud, but it was still heard by the people in the neighboring seats. They could not help but look over. In fact, General Situ could have lowered his voice, but he didn't. Obviously, he was deliberately putting Situ Yaorao on the spot so that Situ Honglei would appear more polite in front of others.
When Situ Yaorao heard this, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her mother. She had put in a lot of effort. In order to satisfy General Situ, she had given up the opportunity to come here with him and gave it to a girl born from a concubine. He wanted his daughter to be able to live in glory here. But what was the result?
This scumbag General Situ was using his daughter as a stepping stone for his concubine. Thinking of this, Situ Yaorao couldn't help but want to laugh.
However, the situation wasn't right, so he endured it. Looking at General Situ, Situ Yaorao's eyes were cold, but her tone was respectful.""Father, if a thief stole your things and returned them to you when you came back, would you say thank you?”
"Of course not. There is no such foolish person in this world.”General Situ said indifferently. Hearing this, Situ Yaorao laughed."In that case, it's the same logic. My sister is sitting in the seat that originally belonged to me. Now that she's given it to me, she's returning it to me. Of course, I won't be stupid enough to thank her.”
"Unfilial daughter! How can this be the same!" General Situ was angered by Situ Yaorao.
The commotion here had attracted the attention of the Emperor. "General?" The Emperor's gaze drifted over. Is there anything?"
Hearing this, General Situ quickly restrained his anger and said,"Replying to the emperor, this subject is fine.”
"That's good. If General has any problems, you can tell me. General, you have made great contributions to the court. In the future, I will still have to rely on you.”
The Emperor said kindly. Hearing this, General Situ bowed respectfully."Yes. I will definitely work harder."
Hearing this, the Emperor smiled and did not say anything else.
Situ Yaorao couldn't help but applaud General Situ's stupidity. Work hard? Why work hard? Merit again? When the time comes, can you ask the emperor to give you half of the throne? Even if he was courting death, he shouldn't take the initiative to help others sharpen their knives!
The emperor praised you in front of so many people, it's obvious that he's already dissatisfied with you. He put on his hat first, then raised his hand and slashed down. As she thought about it, Situ Yaorao felt that the Situ Clan was unreliable. It was better to find another way out in the future and run away with that cheap mother. At the very least, he couldn't let her die with General Situ.
This person was stupid, it was his problem!
The banquet went smoothly. Soon, it was time for everyone to celebrate the Empress Dowager's birthday.
The first to step forward were the princes. Because most of these princes were not married yet, they had to personally prepare gifts. As long as there was a meaning.
The crown prince gave her a pair of warm jade ruyi. Holding it in his hand could allow his meridians to flow smoothly. It had the effect of prolonging life. For an old man, what could be more heartwarming than being able to live a few more days?
After the Empress Dowager received the warm jade Ruyi, she couldn't stop smiling.
Next was the Second Prince. He gave her a zither. When the Empress Dowager was young, she loved playing the zither. Her Aegean was destroyed in a fire. At that time, in order to save the current emperor, she could not care less about that zither. Now, it was also a big sadness for her.
The Second Prince had deliberately found someone to imitate the zither from back then. After the empress dowager received the zither, she hugged it excitedly. Her fingers trembled as she gently stroked it.
However, although she was very excited, the sadness in her eyes was still seen by Situ Yaorao, who was looking around in boredom.
It seemed that the zither had a great meaning to the Empress Dowager, right? No matter how good this zither was, it was no longer the same one from back then. Once something was lost, it would never come back.
Compared to the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, the Third Prince was more compassionate. He took the 1000 Buddhist scriptures he had copied and said that it was a gift for the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager loved to worship Buddha, and seeing her grandson copying Buddhist scriptures for her, she was naturally extremely moved.
However, the most eye-catching one was the Sixth Prince. Almost everyone knew that the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince were not on good terms. The two of them had always been at odds. Now, the warm jade Ruyi given by the Crown Prince was rare in the world. The Sixth Prince?
The facts proved that he was indeed worthy of being a person who could go against the Crown Prince. The Sixth Prince did not want to be outdone and gave him a ginseng."Royal Grandma, this ginseng was specially dug up by your grandson. It is said that its color and age are the best in the world. I'll give this to Imperial Grandmother."
One was to extend one's lifespan, and the other was a life-saving spirit herb.
Even Situ Yaorao couldn't help but be envious of their generosity.
"Good, good. You children are all very thoughtful.”The empress dowager smiled kindly. Soon, all the princes and princes had sent their gifts. Even the princess gave him a gift. However, the Seventh Prince was nowhere to be seen. This made the Empress Dowager a little dissatisfied.”
At the mention of the Seventh Prince, everyone present felt awkward.
Everyone knew that the Seventh Prince was afraid of seeing women. Therefore, no one would care if the Seventh Prince would come to the banquet. But he didn't expect the Empress Dowager to still be thinking about it!
For a moment, everyone felt awkward. The most awkward person was the Emperor."Behind the scenes, that child probably won't come.”
"Is that so? Aijia dotes on Xiao Qi the most. But why didn't you even look at me, this old woman?”
Situ Yaorao almost burst out laughing when she heard the empress dowager's words. Why? Because your grandson is afraid of women. Why would I go to see you?
Of course, it would be suicide to say such a thing, so Situ Yaorao didn't say it. Soon, it was the ministers 'turn to offer their gifts.
Generally speaking, ministers would let their daughters present gifts. Firstly, they hoped that their daughters would appear in front of their colleagues. Secondly, they thought that the princes might take a liking to them.
The first to go was the Prime Minister's daughter. The person who had come to offer gifts was the Prime Minister's youngest daughter, Mu Wanwan. The situation of the Prime Minister's family could be said to be as chaotic as the Situ family!
However, the Prime Minister's family did not have a good mistress like the Situ family.
The Prime Minister's wife was a couple who had gone through thick and thin together when the Prime Minister was poor. Since ancient times, the wife of a chaff would not leave the hall, so she had always followed the Prime Minister. But in fact, she was not favored at all. She only had a pair of children. His son went to the border and did not return home, and his daughter was submissive and did not come out on stage. She didn't know how to fight for it. Therefore, the first wife and the first wife's daughter were useless in the Prime Minister's residence.
The youngest daughter of the Prime Minister was the daughter of the old King Nan, Princess He Yue. She had been spoiled since she was young.
She was the one who had come to offer gifts, so there was nothing wrong with that.
"Wan Wan has given a gift to the Empress Dowager.”The woman's voice was crisp and clear, and she looked extremely cute. When the Empress Dowager saw Mu Wanwan, she beamed with joy."You little girl, you have a sweet mouth. Someone come, reward!"
