The concubines came forward to offer gifts in order of status. The eldest grandson Wugao was not around, so the first person to offer congratulatory gifts was the imperial concubine Yang Wanzhi.

There was a hesitant look on her face, as if she was embarrassed. After a while, she took out a finely crafted sleeping pillow and said a little shyly:"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I really can't think of what to give as a gift to Your Majesty. , I just heard that Your Majesty was working day and night on political affairs and had little rest, so I made a medicinal pillow with my own hands, which can soothe the mind and help sleep. I hope Your Majesty can have a good rest.……"

After finishing speaking, Yang Wanzhi was filled with anxiety, wondering if her gift was too hasty.

However, Empress Xiao, who was sitting on the side seat enjoying the meal, smiled slightly.

In fact, it was Empress Xiao's idea to send medicine pillows. Empress Xiao had experienced four husbands and knew best how to figure out a man's mind.

Li Changqing is the emperor and lacks nothing. After the disappearance of Queen Changsun, what he lacks is the care of those close to him. In her opinion, if Yang Wanzhi can rely on this, he is very likely to win Li Changqing's favor.

I have to say that Empress Xiao is really good at reading people's hearts.

After Li Changqing saw Yang Wanzhi's gift, not only did he not feel shabby, but he smiled and looked at Yang Wanzhi with a much softer look. He said,"The imperial concubine is thoughtful. I like this gift very much." After hearing this, Yang Wanzhi then He breathed a long sigh of relief, and felt a burst of joy in his heart after feeling Li Changqing's soft gaze.

Next was Huyan Wuna. When it was her turn, she blushed even harder than Yang Wanzhi. She hesitated and refused to stand up, holding her hands firmly behind her back.

Li Changqing felt funny when he saw this, and asked deliberately:"Concubine Shu, didn't you prepare a gift?"

"No, I... I'm ready, but, it's just not done yet……"

Huyan Wu Na panicked, then gritted her teeth and said bravely:"I heard that women from the Central Plains have the custom of making brocade bags for their lovers, so I thought about making one too. But, I don't know how to be a female celebrity, so I can't do it well.……"

She also took out the hand she had placed behind her, holding a very... ugly brocade bag with two fat chicken-like mandarin ducks embroidered on it.……

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Changqing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly. He was really amused.

The guests in the palace were also holding back their laughter. Li Changqing could laugh, but they couldn't. Huyan Wuna was a dignified concubine.

After a while, Li Changqing finally stopped laughing. After adjusting his demeanor, he still couldn't hold back the smile on his lips and said to Huyan Wuna:"You can make me laugh, this is the best gift for me. Thank you."

This was the first time in these days that he truly relaxed and laughed happily.

Li Xiuning on the side smiled and had a good impression of Huyan Wuna. She held her birthday today just to make Li Changqing happy. Unexpectedly, some concubine Zhi Shu did it.

Huyan Wuna was a little annoyed and retreated with a blushing face and stopped talking.

With this episode, the atmosphere was quite good for a while, and the gifts from the next few concubines were all normal.

The Zhaoyuan Yin family gave a set of the former emperor's study room as a gift, which was quite elegant.

Mrs. Zhaorong Cui presented three cakes to the mother-in-law of Wudang Mountain, which she cherished very much.

Xiuyi and Wushun gave him a piece of hand-warming jade, which was priceless.

Zhaoyi Xiao gave her a set of clothes made of natural silk, which were warm in winter and cool in summer.

These gifts were basically prepared with the help of the family behind them, and each one was designed to cater to Li Changqing's preferences.

Empress Xiao is not the only one who is eyeing the position of queen.

After all the concubines presented their gifts, Li Changqing did not see Wu Meiniang, and he couldn't help but wonder.

Although Wu Meiniang was only a talented person, all the concubines had to attend his birthday, so why didn't she see her alone?

Just when Li Changqing was about to ask, he saw a dozen palace maids slowly walking into the hall. The leader was dressed in blue gauze, holding a sheathed sword in his arms, and his body was graceful and moving. Who else could it be if she wasn't Wu Meiniang?

Behind her, a dozen palace maids were carrying a drum about half a person's height and the size of a stone mill.

The maids placed the drum in the center of the hall, then stood on either side, bowing their heads in silence, while Wu Meiniang lightly jumped onto the drum.

Everyone in the hall stared at this scene with wide eyes, not knowing what happened.

The next moment, the band suddenly played music, Wu Meiniang suddenly turned around, drew her sword and danced!

The posture is light, moving gracefully in the small space of the drum head, and the naked jade feet step on the drum without making any sound, just like a flying fairy!

Everyone's eyes were attracted by this stunning dance, and there was nothing else in their eyes except the dancing figure!

The brilliance of the whole world seemed to be concentrated on her!

Today there is a beautiful woman named Wu Meiniang, who moves the air in all directions with her sword dance.

The viewer is as depressed as the mountains, and the heaven and earth are depressed for a long time.

Huo Ruyi shoots at the nine sunsets, as powerful as the dragons flying among the emperors.

It comes like thunder to absorb its wrath, and ends like the clear light of the river and sea.

Her crimson lips and beaded sleeves are lonely, but there are disciples who spread the fragrance.

The beauty Linying is in Baidi, and she dances wonderfully to this song.

After the dance, there was silence in the hall. Everyone was deeply immersed in Wu Meiniang's stunning sword dance just now, and it was difficult to regain consciousness for a long time.

Even Li Changqing and Li Xiuning were surprised. Both of them were proficient in swordsmanship, so they could naturally see that Wu Meiniang's sword dance just now was extremely brilliant!

Wu Meiniang placed the sharp sword on the drum, then lightly jumped off the drum, came to the steps and bowed down Yingying, saying:"This sword dance is my concubine's gift to His Majesty." After hearing this clear and beautiful sound , With the sound of his voice, everyone came back to their senses from the shock.

After Empress Xiao came to her senses at this time, she couldn't help but look at Wu Meiniang with a hint of anger.

"This foxy girl actually used this method to attract His Majesty's attention. Who is she?!"

Wu Meiniang is just a talented person with a low status. Empress Xiao never counted her among Yang Wanzhi's enemies when she ascended to the throne. Only then did she realize that she was wrong.
