The Queen Mother followed Yun Chan's hand and looked over.
The ring is in a separate small box, so you can't see what's inside.
She didn't know why: "What does Princess Zhan mean by this?"
"The Queen Mother, open it and take a look."
Yun Chan didn't want to be in the limelight, she was just curious about how women in ancient times would react when they saw a diamond ring.
She is also a bit bored.
Sang Zhan looked at her from behind without stopping her.
But Sang Zhan really didn't know what birthday gift she had prepared beforehand.
At this moment, he was a little curious.
After all, this woman's things have always been weird.
Yunchan was the first person to ask the Queen Mother to open her birthday gift in public.
Others in the hall couldn't help but take a few steps closer, wanting to see how special this gift was.
The Queen Mother smiled and said in a gentle voice: "Okay, then open the Ai family and let's take a look together."
After that, she took the ring box, and Yunchan taught her how to open it.
After opening it, the Queen Mother couldn't help but look suspicious when she saw what was inside.
"This is……"
Although the thing is really beautiful, the style is weird and I have never seen it before.
Others were also staring at the ring.
I can't understand it at all.
Where should such a small circle be placed?
"Queen Mother, let me put it on for you."
Yun Chan smiled faintly, took out the diamond ring with her own hands, and then slowly opened the Queen Mother's left hand, revealing her fingers that were slightly soft but still fair and slender.
She put the diamond ring on the Queen Mother's ring finger, and the size was just right.
The shiny diamond ring, worn like this, instantly made her hand more noble and delicate, making her look extremely beautiful.
The Queen Mother's eyes were full of smiles.
"Wonderful, really wonderful."
She raised her hand slightly and looked at it again and again: "The Ai family never knew that there are such exquisite and small things in the world. Yunchan, you child is really thoughtful. The Ai family likes this gift."
"As long as the Queen Mother likes it."
Yun Chan said with an indifferent expression. After giving the gift, she turned around and returned to Sang Zhan.
She said that there is no woman who does not like diamond rings.
Ancient times are no exception.
Not to mention women of the Queen Mother's age, the same goes for other young girls in the hall. The moment the diamond ring was put on the Queen Mother's hand, their eyes flicked over.
However, before giving the gift, Yun Chan had no idea how much trouble this move would bring her.
Later, Sang Zhan and Yun Chan were also arranged at the table next to them. They sat down to drink tea first and waited for others to enter the palace one by one to congratulate them.
The birthday banquet will not officially begin until everyone has finished congratulating you.
With Yunchan's birthday gift, the rest of it seemed very ordinary.
Soon, Yun Fu took Ye Jingshu and several concubines and concubines into the main hall.
Among them, there is Yunmeng, but Yunmeng is not seen.
This month, Yun Chan has not paid special attention to her, but with Wan Tang here, it is difficult not to know these news.
After Yunmeng was returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, her life was no longer as good as before. Her mother's illness became more and more severe. Doctors changed one after another, but almost everyone said the same thing.
That means her mother has run out of gas and can't survive this thing.
So Yunmeng's life can be imagined. If he didn't have a bastard brother, his life might not be as good as in Orchid Garden.
Later, I heard that her mother had arranged a marriage for her and planned to marry her off before she died.
After all, she was the second lady of the prime minister's house, and the marriage was said to be good. Unexpectedly, Yunmeng actually refused directly, saying she would rather die than get married.
This aroused Yun Chan's suspicion. It must be related to the fact that the mastermind behind the scenes asked her to poison Wan Tang.
Perhaps she was still hoping for something.
Yun Chan didn't pay attention to this at all.
He's just a clown, nothing to be afraid of.
After Yun Fu's family celebrated their birthday, they were arranged next to Sang Zhan and Yun Chan.
To outsiders, they are a family, and sitting together is a normal thing.
"Chan'er!"
The happiest person to see Yun Chan was Ye Jingshu. When congratulating her, her eyes kept glancing towards Yun Chan. Her heart felt like grass had grown and she wanted to run to her daughter immediately.
"Chan'er, are you okay? Mom misses you so much."
She held Yun Chan's hand and looked up and down to make sure that her face was rosy and her body was not emaciated, and then she felt relieved.
"Mom, sit down quickly."
After not seeing each other for such a long time, Yun Chan was happy to see Ye Jingshu again and saw that her condition was getting better and better.
At this moment, she held her hand and the two chatted for a while. From the perspective of outsiders, the relationship between the two of them was naturally extremely close and enviable.
When Yun Fu saw this scene, he couldn't help but reveal a faint smile on his face.
Although this girl is wild and untamable and difficult to control, she is quite good to her mother. In the future, with this kind of relationship, she should not go against the Prime Minister.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, the Crown Princess has arrived."
At this time, the etiquette officer at the door sang loudly again.
Not long ago, Dongfang Ming was imprisoned by Dongfang Yiyuan. It is said that it was because of the Queen Mother's birthday banquet that Dongfang Yiyuan released him. Otherwise, he might still be locked up in a small dark room.
Thinking back to the last time we met, Dongfang Ming was so high-spirited. Now, looking at him again, he was completely depressed, his face was covered with a layer of gloom, and his brows were full of sadness.
They were all released, and they looked as if they were dead fathers. The Queen Mother took one look at them and waved them away directly.
Then, several waves of people came in succession.
Most of them were concubines from the harem, and there were also a few princes and princesses, all of whom looked like they had honey smeared on their mouths. The birthday gifts they gave were all extraordinary, which made the Queen Mother smile again.
Time passes gradually.
The main hall has been piled full of birthday gifts.
Soon, Dongfang Yan also came, not even Zhaoyang was left behind, everyone was present.
Finally, Dongfang Yiyuan and Yun Qingyan walked into the hall hand in hand.
When the emperor takes action, birthday gifts are naturally the most expensive.
The Queen Mother smiled from ear to ear and stood up in person to welcome Dongfang Yiyuan to sit next to her.
Yun Qingyan was sitting slightly lower.
This is the end of the birthday greetings.
Immediately afterwards, the birthday banquet began.
The palace maids and eunuchs filed in, took the tea away from the tables in the hall, and then served the dishes one by one quickly and orderly.
Soon, countless delicacies were placed on every dining table, and the aroma of wine, coriander and vegetables suddenly filled the entire hall.
Dongfang Yiyuan made a few opening remarks in a gentle yet dignified manner, and the banquet officially began.
Everyone sat down in an orderly manner.
A birthday banquet is naturally accompanied by singing and dancing.
As a melodious sound of silk and bamboo sounded, outside the hall, a group of dancers in pink dresses entered the hall and danced gracefully.
Everyone ate and drank while enjoying the beautiful dance. They occasionally lowered their heads and chatted with those around them.
From the beginning of the birthday banquet, Yun Chan felt the attention from all directions, including some she knew and some she didn't know.
There are many eyes and complex emotions.
There are curious looks, admiration and envy, resentment and jealousy, and even... weird looks.
There is something wrong with these people.
She usually stays at Prince Zhan's palace and never leaves the house. Did she recruit them or offend them?
Among them, there were a few with the strongest gazes, and Yun Chan glanced at them without feeling too surprised.
Apart from Yun Jin and Zhao Yang, the one who looked at her the most was Dongfang Yan.
He was like a big injustice, neither watching the singing or dancing nor eating. His eyes were fixed on Yunchan and he couldn't move away.
Dongfang Yan really couldn't imagine that the girl who used to follow him every day now didn't even want to look at him.
This made him feel very uncomfortable.
She has never looked for him since she married into Prince Zhan's palace. He didn't believe that a person could change his heart so quickly and completely!
Moreover, why didn't he realize that she was... so stunning before?
Dongfang Yan's gaze annoyed Yunchan.
If Yun Chan can detect it, Sang Zhan can naturally do it too.
His eyes darkened slightly, and his breath gradually became colder.
Next to him, Yun Fu saw the clues and frowned slightly.
He was worried that Dongfang Yan would cause some trouble and ruin his plan if he continued to watch like this, so he quickly used his body to block Dongfang Yan's sight.
Then he looked at Sang Zhan and changed the subject: "Come, King Zhan, let us have a drink, just as a wish for the early success of our plan."
Yun Fu and Sang Zhan were sitting next to each other, and his voice was kept very low, supplemented by the sound of silk and bamboo, so there was no need to worry about being heard by others.
However, Yun Chan was sitting on the other side of Sang Zhan and still heard a slight shadow.
Hearing this, Sang Zhan's breath was still cold. His eyes glanced at Dongfang Yan in the distance, his eyes filled with ice.
Dongfang Yan met Sang Zhan's gaze, then quickly turned his head and looked away.
In the end, Sang Zhan did not drink the glass of wine with Yun Fu. He only said: "The plan has not yet succeeded. This wine should be kept on the day of success, so that it will taste more delicious."
