Chapter 31 Birthday Banquet (3)

Meng Heng lightly clasped the short case, listening to Meng Qing's qin music, and accidentally swept to Xiao Yan's place.

He sat there indifferently, but his eyes could not deceive anyone, the strands of emotion that no one had explored to the root, the bottomless pupils like a deep pool, were clearly full of emotion, but they were always unpredictable and unable to be explored...

Meng Heng seemed to have glimpsed some secret, and proudly took a sip of the wine that smelled of sweet-scented osmanthus.

The song is over.

Xiao Yan still felt the lingering sound lingering in his ears.

Meng Qing stood up from the banquet, and said loudly: "I wish my father a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity longer than Nanshan. For thousands of years, good fortune and longevity!"

The ministers got up together and echoed: "I wish the emperor a blessing like the East China Sea, a longevity longer than Nanshan, and a long life forever!"

The great momentum inside the Xuande Hall spread far and wide.

The Emperor of Chu laughed heartily, "It's been a long time, good fortune and longevity!"

"My loves, please take your seats!"

"Yes."

Seeing that Emperor Chu was in the best mood at this time, Meng Qing seized the opportunity to present the final congratulatory gift.

"Father! My son has another treasure to dedicate to Father!"

"What baby, you left it until the end?"

Meng Qing gestured to Yun He at the banquet.

Even if Yun Hedang handed her a wooden box, Emperor Chu was still looking forward to the treasure Meng Qing said.

Under the eyes of everyone gathered, Meng Qing opened the wooden box, took out those neatly arranged silks and placed them in the palm of her hand.

No matter how they looked at it, Meng Fei and Meng Heng couldn't see the mystery of the silk, so they dismissed it.

"Qingqing, didn't you take some clothes from a dead person as a gift to Father?"

After finishing speaking, Meng Fei picked up the embroidered handkerchief and covered the tip of her nose in disgust.

All civil and military officials also cast unfriendly eyes on the silk, but the Emperor Chu suddenly gouged out Meng Fei's eyes.

"Shut up if you can't talk!"

After being reprimanded, Meng Fei obediently kept her mouth shut, just waiting to watch the show.

Meng Qing smiled sweetly, "I'm afraid the third sister guessed wrong, this is not some clothes taken from the body of a dead person, it is silk from Sichuan!"

In this way, it created a different suspense for everyone. What is there to offer an ordinary silk? Is it possible that this silk is worth thousands of gold?
Meng Fei covered her lips and murmured: "I don't think it's too embarrassing."

Others might not have heard it, but Meng Heng, who was sitting beside her, could hear it clearly. She always felt that there must be something strange about this silk silk, which was why Meng Qing presented it to her father as a treasure.

Emperor Chu was puzzled, "What's the difference between this silk and silk?"

The entire Xuande Hall was silent, just waiting for Meng Qing to reveal the secret to everyone.

She has a pretty face, and she has a bit of charm when she speaks.

"Everyone, please see!"

The huge silk was suddenly scattered in her hands, and Meng Qing couldn't hold it up alone, and the maids and eunuchs beside her stepped forward to hold a corner.

A map bigger than the sheets and quilts suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Xiao Yan's pair of exquisite Ruifeng eyes gradually became deeper, as if he was not surprised by this picture at all, but more with a sense of familiarity.

A military official familiar with the territory map exclaimed.

"This is... a map of Shu?"

Meng Qing lowered her eyes and smiled slightly.

Finally, there is someone who knows the goods.

"That's right, this is not just a map of Shu, it's also a treasure hunt map!"

As soon as these words came out, the hall was full of noise.

"Treasure map? What treasure map?"

"Isn't this picture the specific location of the treasury of the Shu Kingdom in the past?"

"Shu Kingdom? Hasn't it been dead for 20 years?"

"I didn't expect that the treasury of the Kingdom of Shu would reappear in the world! God bless me, Great Chu!"

Emperor Chu was even more pleasantly surprised than these ministers, wishing he could rush down immediately to pick up this picture and study it carefully.

"Quick! Bring it up and show me!"

His whole heart was beating wildly.

He has a hunch that his great career will be accomplished!

The treasury of the Shu Kingdom is said to contain countless ancient treasures and unknown secrets.

The mysterious king of ancient Shu, the golden mask, and the hibiscus tree...

One piece, priceless!
As long as there is such a thing, he will launch the Northern Expedition, just around the corner!

The silk map was presented and opened under the jade steps for the emperor of Chu to study and observe.

Meng Qing stood with her hands behind her back, the corners of her lips raised unconsciously.

Fortunately, she saved a lot of money and copied the map of Shu in advance. Before the Emperor Chu sent people to Shu, her team was already on the way.

Once found, the entire treasury of the Shu region will be hers.

That's money, a lot of money!

At least enough for her to raise 20 soldiers and horses!

Then she won't be afraid of Xiao Yan!What backtracking!What Qi Yuan!Kill them all!No life left!

Thinking about it, Meng Qing stood aside and giggled, cheerfully looking as if she had been in a daze for three years!
Xiao Yan pursed his lips and laughed, his eyes were tender and tender, staring straight at the foolish Meng Qing.

After Emperor Chu finished reading, he raised his head and smiled.

He said domineeringly: "Very good, very good! Just this one picture is better than today's congratulatory gift! Qingqing is deeply in my favor! Tell me, what reward my little daughter wants, I will satisfy you today!"

Chu Huang's words made those present who were preparing the congratulatory gifts very dissatisfied.

The noble concubine Gu Qingyun smiled in relief.

Meng Qing's eyes lit up, "Any reward is fine?"

"Of course! You have to think about it!"

What do you think, don't think about it!
She blurted out directly: "My son only wants a token to leave the palace!"

Exit token?

Is this little Di Ji out of her mind?
Such a good grace was actually used to ask for a token to leave the palace?

It's puzzling.

Emperor Chu was also inconceivable, he didn't even believe his ears, and asked again: "Exit token? What is it for?"

She said seriously: "Of course I'm out of the palace to play!"

"Going out of the palace? Playing?"

"Yup!"

Emperor Chu heaved a sigh of relief, and almost carried it back out of anger!

He originally wanted to give her better grace, but he didn't expect that she would foolishly ask for a token to leave the palace?
Furious!
"You don't regret it?"

He reconfirmed.

Meng Qing shook her head and said, "No regrets!"

"..."

Speechless.

Chu Huang tilted his eyes and gestured to Eunuch Xia beside him.

Eunuch Xia understood, and immediately took out his only palace token from his body, and handed it to Meng Qing.

"I give you the token to leave the palace. If you want to ask for other gifts in the future, there will be no more!"

"Yes!"

Meng Qing happily took the token and put it in her pocket with great care.

The officials shook their heads in disappointment, secretly thinking that rotten wood cannot be carved!
But only Xiao Yan knew what she was going to do.

First of all, to challenge his ambitions with him, and then to ask the Emperor Chu for a token to leave the palace. The ultimate goal is to be able to make friends with ministers smoothly without being hindered.

After the two, there was another grasshopper on the same rope. She was sure that he would not stop her from doing great things, but would help her instead.

At such a young age, my thoughts are really too delicate...

This ends the party.
