Chapter 57

The layout of the Yingbin Pavilion is extremely festive.The ground is covered with thick carpets inlaid with gold silk, and the beams are covered with exquisitely painted palace lanterns, with bright red silk flowers tied on them.The main hall is surrounded by six pairs of tall copper pillars. Next to the copper pillars, there are carved silver candlesticks one person tall. The sky is not yet dark, but candles as thick as arms are lit early on. Spices, burnt with a delicate fragrance.

This scene is far from the arrangement when Guan Ling visited as an envoy that day.It has not changed, the Yingbin Pavilion is still the Yingbin Pavilion, things are different, people are different, the enchanting song without a trace back then amazed the world, but now, it is a different scene.

"Concubine Mu, do you know what day it is today?" Sheng'er looked mysterious.

"It's an important day for my dear Sheng'er to take the imperial examination and be able to enter the Tai Academy. How could the queen mother not know?"

"No, concubine mother, that's not what Cheng'er said."

Enchanting and mischievous, she said, "Today is still Sheng'er's birthday! Concubine Mother, I have already prepared to celebrate your birthday."

"Cheng'er knew that the mother and concubine hadn't forgotten! But..." Sheng'er said mysteriously, "Today, the emperor praised Sheng'er for passing the palace exam and is going to hold a birthday party for Sheng'er. Concubine mother, you must go!"

Enchanting, she was taken aback for a moment, thinking how to evade it.

"Mother Concubine, you didn't go to the palace exam, the birthday party... you must go!"

In front of Yaoluo, Sheng'er never said "you".

"Okay, mother concubine promises you."

Thus, the opening scene appeared.Standing in the Yingbin Pavilion, Yaoluo told herself that she was only here to celebrate Sheng'er's birthday this time.

"Concubine Rao?" Cheng Ming did not know when he stood behind Enchanting Rao, "I thought you were going to keep running away and refused to take a step out of the health care hall."

"Isn't it thanks to the emperor that the concubine can appear in the Yingbin Pavilion?" Yaoluo raised her face and looked at Cheng Ming provocatively.

Cheng Ming was stunned, and then said: "Since you know it all, you should also understand my intentions. Sheng'er is growing up, and I don't want to see Sheng'er's mother look like that."

"What I look like is none of your business, and our mother and son have never thought about fighting for anything. The emperor doesn't have to worry about our mother and son."

Cheng Ming sighed slightly, "It's been two years, I still don't understand, I treat you well, Concubine Rao, why do you still do this?"

Yaoluo realized that she had never seriously considered this issue, but her nature made her do so.

"The emperor didn't do anything wrong. It's all the concubine's fault." Yao Yao slightly bowed her body, which was regarded as an apology.

"Is it because of Ancher?"

"He's my brother." Enchanting felt guilty.

"I know. But now that you are my concubine, you should do what a concubine should do."

"There are three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem, why should I have one more?"

"When did you see that there are three thousand beauties in my harem?" Cheng Ming frowned, "Concubine Rao, the royal heirs are weak, whether you like it or not, Sheng'er is talented, and I value him very much. I really hope you understand."

"Cheng'er is only two years old. I don't expect him to have such a bright future. I only hope that he has a complete childhood now. I also hope that the emperor understands."

"Children of the royal family are doomed to have no childhood subjects. I have said everything that needs to be said, and what to do is up to Concubine Rao."

"The concubine thanked the emperor for reminding me." Hmph, Yaoluo never wanted to fight for anything.Wanting to use Yao Yao's child as a victim of the royal family, Yao Yao would never agree.

"The feast is about to begin, let's take a seat."
