Su Tang's clear voice echoed in the hall, Queen Song's eyes were full of contempt, no matter how fancy she was, it was just a piece of ink pad.
The reaction of everyone in the hall was very divided. The noble lady and all the ladies reacted indifferently, but the officials should not be too jealous when looking at the tray. Those who like engraving, calligraphy, calligraphy and painting don't want such an ink pad. Other princes

Although birthday gifts are expensive, they are mostly decorations. How can the emperor lack those decorations? There are too many warehouses in the palace to store them, but this ink pad is practical. It is placed on the dragon table and is used every day. After one use, it will be enough.
Reminds me of the filial piety of Princess Jingnan.
This is the person who really knows how to give gifts.
Concubine Xia smiled and said, "I have never heard of this Longquan ink paste. Is there really a prince who speaks so well?"
Obviously, he also suspected that Su Tang was bragging.
Empress Song said, "Whether it is true or not, we will know once we test it."
Eunuch Yuan took the tray and brought it to the emperor. The emperor opened it and took a look. As an emperor, he had used countless ink pads. He could tell at a glance whether the ink pad was good or not.
He could tell that Su Tangxian's ink pad was good, but it was not as good as Su Tang said, and it still needed to be verified.
"Use the seal."
After the emperor's instructions, the young father-in-law took the rice paper. The emperor stamped the rice paper with the personal seal he carried with him. Eunuch Yuan personally soaked it in a copper basin filled with water, and then took it out. Even though he was far away, he could see the rice paper.
Seeing that the seal had not been opened, the ministers became even more jealous.
I tried soaking it in water but it didn't get wet, and then I tried burning it but it didn't melt.
The rice paper was reduced to ashes, but the traces of the seal were still very clear. When Eunuch Yuan presented it to the emperor for inspection, Empress Song sat aside and saw clearly that she couldn't find fault even if she wanted to.
The emperor smelled the ink pad and could still vaguely smell the fragrance of medicinal materials. He liked the ink pad very much. When he put it on the tray held by Eunuch Yuan, the emperor said, "Put it on the dragon table. I will use this ink pad from now on."
.”
Su Tang and Xie Boting finished their birthday celebrations and then sat back.
Then Princess Zhaoyang presented her birthday.
With Su Tang Zhuyu in front of her, Princess Zhaoyang's birthday gift was inconspicuous. There was also Princess Yuyang, and even the birthday gifts of the princes and ministers, none of them enjoyed the same enjoyment as the ink pad given by Su Tang. It was placed in the imperial study or bedroom by the emperor.
treatment.
Su Tang is the only one.
The official birthday celebration lasted for a whole hour, then the dancer came on stage to perform a dance, the officials presented longevity wine, and the birthday banquet was festive and lively.
The singing and dancing lasted for most of an hour. Princess Zhaoyang performed a dance for the emperor, Princess Yuyang played a piano instrument, the eldest prince danced with the sword to celebrate the emperor's birthday, and several ministers' daughters performed dances...
Su Tang sat there, drinking fruit wine and watching the song and dance performance. I have to say that it was good to sit close to the emperor. He could see very clearly and it was very comfortable.
What's more important is that no one asked her to dance. At the Queen Mother's birthday party, she was forced to dance and show her face. Fortunately, the emperor took care of it for her, so it was not too embarrassing. She danced the dance that Queen Shen was good at.
The emperor didn't blame her, and now that she was named under Queen Shen's knees, it would be even more okay.
The banquet lasted for a full three hours, and the queen mother couldn't bear it as her buttocks were so strong that she returned to Yongning Palace halfway through the banquet. The longevity banquet did not end until the emperor was tired.
After seeing the emperor off respectfully, Su Tang breathed a sigh of relief. It was over. It was not easy.
Su Tang and Xie Boting came out of the Wanshou Palace. When Princess Yuyang saw Su Tang leaving, she said to Princess Yang, "She is leaving the palace."
Princess Zhaoyang said angrily, "Leave the palace as soon as you leave the palace. Do you still want her to stay in the palace and cause trouble?"
Princess Yuyang said, "Today I hope she stays."
Princess Zhaoyang felt that Princess Yuyang had taken the wrong medicine, but she quickly realized that none of the other princesses were allowed to leave the palace to visit the lantern festival. Why should she be the protector of the country? She should stay with her.
Father.
Princess Zhaoyang walked over and said, "Princess Protector is ready to leave the palace now?"
Su Tang looked back at her, frowning slightly, not understanding what Princess Zhaoyang meant by stopping her. She just looked at Princess Zhaoyang, and Princess Zhaoyang said, "There will be a family dinner in the evening. Since you have been named at Queen Shen's knees,
, you should participate.”
Her heart flew out of the palace, and they wanted to keep her here. It was clear that they were going to cause trouble for her and not let her go to the lantern festival. However, she was named a princess. It would definitely not work if she refused to accompany the emperor. Su Tang smiled and said, "
When will the family banquet end? Do you want to live in the palace?" This chapter has been completed!
