There is a festive atmosphere in the Baohe Hall.
With the end of a "Dance for the Fairy's Birthday", the dancers slowly withdrew from the hall, and then the important part of the birthday presents of the princes and princes.
This session is the most exciting every year, it is a dance of gods and demons, and see whose gifts are the most sacred.
Zhou Wang Xiao Mingying came first.
I saw him wave his hand, and the two Hercules brought a large blue and white bowl, which was one meter high and one meter in diameter. This thing attracted everyone's eyes, wondering what was in this big deep bowl.
"Brother Seven, what is this?" Xiao Yan asked in a low voice.
Xiao Rui gave him a white look: "Fish soup!"
"Really? So big?" Xiao Yan asked in shock.
Xiao Rui didn't want to talk to him.
"Emperor brother, what is this?" Xia Huang asked curiously.
Xiao Mingying smiled and said, "Your Majesty will know it when you look at it."
After finishing speaking, he ordered the Hercules to put down the big deep bowl, and Xia Huang Ju condescendingly finally saw what was in the bowl.
In the clear water, there is actually a fish with scales, and the tail is a koi with colorful colors.
"Your Majesty, this is a phoenix koi found in the West Lake. It happens to complement the golden dragon koi in the Royal Garden. Your Majesty has many affairs in the country and has no other hobbies. Transported from the West Lake, hereby dedicated to your majesty on the birthday." Xiao Mingying laughed.
Emperor Xia was overjoyed and said: "The emperor is interested, come here, take good care of this colorful phoenix koi carp, and put it in the imperial garden." Having said that, Emperor Xia said again: "Be careful not to let someone stew for me. Up."
Everyone in the hall was taken aback, and then burst into laughter. Xiao Rui felt a hot face and was teased by his father.
"Brother Seven, it's really fish soup! Haha..." Xiao Yan also joked.
Xiao Rui didn't want to bother him even more.
Xiao Mingying retreated to his seat, and Xiao Hanhai went out. He gave a seal, which was carved in bloodstone, which was quite satisfactory, and Xia Huang responded briefly.
Then, it was the fighting method of the princes.
First of all, it is the eldest prince Xiao Lie.
He bowed to the Emperor Xia and said with a smile: "Father, I heard that there is a miraculous plant in the sea, known as the sea bird's nest, which has the effect of health care. I asked someone to search on the side of the East China Sea and finally found it. This is it!"
While Xiao Lie was talking, two guards brought a blood coral, half a human tall, with a strange shape and thick branches. Such a blood coral has been grown for many years, and it is worth ten thousand gold!
"This thing is a blood coral, and the son and minister dedicated it to the emperor." Xiao Lie smiled.
Emperor Xia smiled and said, "Lie'er is interested."
The imperial concubine on the right smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Lieer has sent people to the East China Sea many times to find this blood coral. She has worked so hard to find it to celebrate her life and express her filial piety."
She is Xiao Lie's mother, so she naturally wants to praise her son's affection.
But Queen Zhou Xiangyun smiled and said, "Yes, it's really rare for your Highness to have this kind of filial piety. But the East China Sea is vast and boundless. It must be a lot of manpower and material resources to find such a blood coral."
Emperor and noble concubine Lin Yuer continued to retort: "No, it happened that a fisherman found this thing, and he could find it from the vast sea. Doesn't it make it more clear that this thing was given to your majesty by the hand of God by my son?"
"My sister said so nicely." Queen Zhou Xiangyun sneered.
Xiao Rui watched the two start to fight each other, and the flowers bloomed with joy. Is this the harem in deep water? I don't know how Emperor Xia endured it, it was Zhen Huan's biography every day.
"Okay." Xia Huang didn't get angry, and smiled: "I like this blood coral very much. Come here, let me go to the Imperial Study Room!"
Duke Hai hastily ordered people to move the blood coral.
Xiao Lie took the seat, everyone's eyes were on Xiao Yiheng.
Everyone knows that Xiao Lie is the eldest son of the emperor, but Xiao Yiheng was born by the queen. Although there is no rule of standing up for the longest and not standing up for the young, and not standing up for the grandfather, after all, it is a rule passed down from ancient times, which will more or less affect the judgment and decision of the Emperor Xia. Therefore, Xiao Lie and Xiao Yiheng are better than others. The prince has an advantage.
Xiao Yiheng went out and said, "Father, my son found a strange stone, named it by a craftsman, and dedicated it to my father. I wish my father a longevity and a longevity."
After speaking, the four powerful men moved a Shoushan stone into the hall.
Good fellow, the Shoushan Stone is only two meters high. It is a rare multicolored hibiscus stone. The colors of purple, red, yellow, white, blue, and yellow are alternately mottled. In addition, the rugged structure of the entire Shoushan stone, coupled with the craftsman's carving, depicts a picture of mountains, rivers and clouds, which is as lifelike and wonderful as the heavens.
It is almost impossible to find such a large colorful hibiscus stone. Therefore, the Emperor Xia's eyes lit up and said, "Wonderful, wonderful."
The corners of Xiao Yiheng's mouth curled up slightly, and his usual cold and arrogant smile lifted up triumphantly. He glanced at Xiao Lie, and then said, "It is the greatest affirmation to the sons and ministers to be loved by the father."
Queen Zhou Xiangyun said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, in order to obtain this colorful hibiscus stone, Heng'er has spent a lot of effort, and invited several famous craftsmen to design the patterns, personally, without affecting the natural appearance of the mountain stone, and carefully carve it. There is this picture of the sea, mountains and clouds."
After , he quickly said to Xiao Yiheng: "Heng'er, let your majesty look at your hands!"
Xiao Yiheng lifted his palms, and his palms and fingers were scarred. It seemed that he was injured by the cutting tool used for carving.
Xia Huang smiled and said: "Heng'er has a heart. This stone is very pleased with me, the sea companion, and ordered to move it into the imperial study room and place it alongside the blood coral."
"Yes!" Haida Fu Mingshi moved on.
Xiao Rui smiled secretly in his heart. Xiao Lie and Xiao Yiheng used no one in a million treasures, and they had a great aura to compare who was number one, but for Emperor Xia, the phrase "placed side by side" was classified into one category, and it was estimated that the two were in the mood. Not refreshing.
Next is the third prince Xiao Ze.
The birthday gift he gave is very ordinary, it is a guqin, and it is also one of the ten famous pianos in the world, the Jiaoyaqin.
Xiao Feng, the fourth prince, gave his favorite four-stone strong bow.
The birthday gifts given by these two princes are their beloved things. Although they are not as precious as Xiao Lie and Xiao Yiheng, they seem to be heavier in their hearts. Therefore, Emperor Xia also tried playing the Jiaoyaqin with his hands and pulled four stones. Qiang Bow then said with emotion: "I am busy with national affairs all day, but I don't have time to cultivate my character, so that the piano art and bow skills are unfamiliar. I like these two gifts very much."
"Your Majesty's sword is not old, and if you use it a little bit, you can regain the courage of the past." Grandpa Hai joked from the side.
When Emperor Xia listened, he laughed: "Come here, send Jiao Yaqin and Sishi Qiang Bow into the Imperial Study Room."
Xiao Lie and Xiao Yiheng's faces are even more ugly.
Xiao Rui felt that Emperor Xia was a bit bad, and deliberately angered Xiao Lie and Xiao Yiheng, and concealed them. The birthday gift was not valuable. The more valuable it was, the more expensive it was. And this is exactly what Xia Huang disgusted most.
Then, the five princes Xiao Yuan and Xiao Ming.
These two princes are the closest, so the birthday gifts given by them are similar. Xiao Yuan gave a sachet of blessings to go to Fochan Mountain in person, and Xiao Ming was a safety talisman to go to Wudang Mountain in person.
Unexpectedly, these two things received the highest praise from Emperor Xia: "Yuan'er and Ming'er are interested. Although these two birthday gifts are not expensive, they let me feel your filial piety, which is very good. Hai Compan, Put the peace charm in the sachet, and I wear it next to my body."
"If the emperor can like it, the children will be relieved." Xiao Yuan and Xiao Ming responded in unison.
And then, it was time for Xiao Rui to present birthday gifts.
