Xie Run smiled and said, "You have to accept it. It's a gift from the elders, you can't refuse it."
"If you don't accept it, it means you are not satisfied. It all depends on the emperor's words."
However, based on what the emperor said to Xie Run, Xie Run always felt that the emperor would not accept it.
The Queen Mother's plan is likely to fail.
I just hope she doesn't want to take back the gift when the time comes?
As soon as Xie Runcai finished speaking, he heard a commotion in the next room.
She couldn't help but raise her hand to support her forehead. "Next year, let him go to the study room and go to school, so that he won't have too much energy and make trouble in Showa Palace every day."
The older Taotao gets, the more energetic he becomes.
A small Showa Palace was not enough for him to make a fuss, and he had been thinking about going out to make trouble every day.
But this is the harem, how can we really let him play around?
Dan Tao smiled and joked: "Your Majesty, you are very clear about it now, don't be reluctant to let go later."
"When our fifth prince goes to study in the upper study, he will have to move to the prince's residence."
Not to mention Xie Run, even Dan Tao and Xiao Shu felt their hearts aching when they thought of it, and they were very reluctant to let go.
Xie Run said frankly, "Everyone will be reluctant to let go, but it's only a matter of time. Let him study early so that he can understand things sooner."
Xie Run didn't want to keep the child by his side for the rest of his life.
Sooner or later he will have to go his own way.
In the blink of an eye, it was the Qixi Festival banquet.
This year's Qixi Festival was only held in the Cining Palace. It was not a grand banquet, so only the emperor, empress and some concubines were invited.
Who would have thought that the emperor would just wave his hand and call all the royal relatives and let them bring their families into the palace. It was much more lively than expected.
The Queen Mother needed help, so she didn't say anything.
The Cining Palace was bustling with activity. Everyone knew that this banquet was specially arranged by the Empress Dowager to honor the beauties, so they all thought they were there to watch the show and join in the fun.
Halfway through the banquet, the singing and dancing suddenly stopped.
Everyone looked up and saw a beautiful woman in a light green long skirt standing up gracefully, holding a green branch in her hand and a bright jade pendant around her waist.
It's like a touch of green falling from the sky, a hazy orange sunset.
The surrounding dancers suddenly lost their color.
The beauty's face is half covered, and her fairy dance is touching.
After the dance, the Queen Mother asked, "Emperor, what do you think of this dance?"
Everyone knew that the Queen Mother was not asking about the dance, but about the person.
The emperor, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, pretended not to know and smiled, "Not bad."
"It is truly an honor for her to receive a compliment from the Emperor."
Seeing that the emperor smiled without saying a word and the queen pretended to be dead, the empress dowager had already expected this.
She shouted, "Luyue, why don't you come and see the emperor?!"
The beautiful woman in a green dress stepped forward, took off her veil, and bowed her head in greeting: "I, Lu Yue, greet the Emperor and Empress. May the Emperor and Empress live long and prosper, and may everything go well for them."
The emperor asked casually, "What's your last name?"
"Your Majesty, my surname is Hua. Thanks to the Empress Dowager's love, she has granted me the surname Lu."
The emperor pretended not to hear the latter part of the sentence and said with a smile: "I saw that my mother loved you so much, and I thought your surname was Lu, but it turns out your surname is Hua."
Lu Yue's expression remained unchanged in the audience, but the Queen Mother's face looked a little ugly.
Of course she could tell that the emperor was mocking Lu Yue and also her.
Pian Huayu had been acting like a coward these days, and when he finally got to see the emperor, he wanted to please him, so he said something extra.
"The Empress Dowager dotes on Miss Lu Yue so much that she has been hiding in the Cining Palace for a long time, and now she is finally able to see her."
"Your Majesty and I both thought Miss Lu Yue was from the Empress Dowager's family, that she shared the same surname, Lu, and was related by blood. That's why we loved her so much. But who knew her surname was actually Hua? I don't know where she came from."
"I don't think I've ever heard of this surname among any famous family in the capital?"
Hua Yu's words actually made the emperor's meaning clearer, and also contained a bit of personal jealousy.
It was just that the emperor's sarcasm was unintentional, while Hua Yu's words were a direct provocation, and also exposed the fact that Lu Yue and the Queen Mother had no blood relationship.
The Queen Mother's face darkened, and she slammed her palm on the table, angrily scolding: "How outrageous!"
The sounds around suddenly stopped, and many people knelt down and saluted, with expressions of fear on their faces.
The Queen Mother said with a look of sorrow: "Who the hell are you?!"
"Who in the capital doesn't know that my entire family is extinct?! This is the most painful thing in my life, and now I have to be teased by a mere concubine like you?!"
"Even if I'm a useless waste, I'm still the emperor's maternal family. Should I be humiliated like this?!"
The Queen Mother looked at the Emperor with anger in her eyes, "Or did she say what the Emperor meant?"
The Emperor and Empress quickly stood up and saluted, "Mother, calm down!"
The Emperor said, "Mother, Consort Hua is ignorant and her words may have offended you. I hope you will forgive me."
The Queen added casually, "Mother, Hua Zhaoyi didn't mean that."
The Empress Dowager ignored everyone else and pointed directly at the Emperor: "She has already humiliated your grandfather's family, and you still want me to forgive her?! The Emperor is so partial to this bitch that he doesn't even take me into consideration?"
"Of course I wouldn't dare." The emperor acted like a filial son. "Hua Zhaoyi is just a concubine. If your majesty is dissatisfied, just punish her. Why get so angry?"
"If the Queen Mother is harmed by a word from her, she will not be able to atone for her sin even if she dies nine times."
After hearing the emperor's words, Hua Yu was so frightened that his face turned pale.
She finally realized that her words had deeply offended the empress dowager, and she also realized that the empress dowager was not a concubine in the emperor's harem and would not condone her inappropriate words.
"Please forgive me, Queen Mother. I am stupid and shouldn't have said such outrageous words..."
"Just shut up! I don't want to hear a word from you, bitch!"
The Empress Dowager was only humiliated when facing the Emperor and the Empress. She was not afraid at all in front of other people.
"Zhaoyi Hua, for your disrespectful words, is demoted to Baolin. Get out of the Cining Palace immediately!"
Hua Yu fell to the ground and subconsciously looked at the emperor, hoping that the emperor would say a few words for her.
"emperor……"
The emperor glanced at her condescendingly, his eyes expressionless, and said coldly: "Send Hua Baolin out of the Cining Palace."
This statement is acknowledging the Queen Mother's punishment.
"Yes!"
The guards immediately stepped forward and took Hua Yu away from the banquet.
The Queen Mother still felt dissatisfied, and the sarcastic words from the Emperor and Hua Yu were like a thorn stuck in her throat.
"Your Majesty, Lu Yue is my cousin from my mother's side. She is beautiful and well-educated. I brought her into the palace to raise her carefully, hoping to find someone to rely on for the rest of her life."
"That Hua is truly jealous. She started by mocking Lu Yue's background. How could she not be mocking the extinction of my maternal bloodline?"
"She is so arrogant!"
Emperor: "What my mother said is true. Since Lu Yue is my cousin, I cannot just sit back and let her be bullied."
The Queen Mother's eyes lit up slightly, thinking that the Emperor had agreed to take Lu Yue into the harem?!
