After the Queen Mother took her seat, everyone stood up and toasted together to celebrate.

Long Yunxuan could only endure the anxiety in his heart and wait for the opportunity to coax his wife again.

The Queen Mother looked at everyone with a smile on her lips, and her eyes sparkled.

The scarlet cardamom raised the cup and drank the wine in the cup, announcing the official start of the birthday banquet.

The eldest princess was sitting next to the queen mother, and her bejeweled elegance directly overshadowed the queen who was covered in gold and jade.

Her frown and smile, not even the younger princesses like Long Weiyang and Long Nichang who were sitting at one side, could surpass her in the slightest.

A woman worthy of being the most beautiful woman in the world, she is indeed an unbeatable beauty with all the years. Even the subtle lines at the corners of her eyes have not let her beauty fade away.

The Queen Mother looked at her daughter's flourishing appearance, and the more she looked at her, the better she felt.

It has been several years. Her daughter followed Chu Shenzhi back to her hometown in Jiangzhou to attend funerals and build an ancestral temple. Finally, she came back this year to celebrate the birthday of this old woman.

The Queen Mother kept holding the eldest princess's hand and refused to let go.

Aiwujiwu, even Chu Yan, who was just a princess, received the same treatment as a princess.

Ancient music played, and the female actresses from the palace's dance studio slowly entered the room along with the music. A song called "Xiangu's Birthday Congratulations" completely lifted the opening atmosphere of the birthday banquet.

"Yun'er, look at this dance. How do they do it?"

"The Ai family still remembers that in the early years when your father was celebrating his birthday, you were still as old as Xiao Nishang.

But you, the most filial person, specially learned this dance from Mrs. Chen, and danced to your father in the Qiankun Hall of the Ai Family. Your father was so happy that he couldn't even open his mouth from ear to ear...

Alas, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye.

Your father has been gone for so many years...

Fortunately, you and Yue'er are living well. Old lady, when I came to your father, I straightened my spine and said to him, "Look, the children are living well!"

Why……"

Among the children of the late emperor, only Emperor Dongling and Princess Dachang were born to the Queen Mother, so their relationship with the Queen Mother was the deepest between them.

"Queen mother, Yun'er is unfilial..."

The eldest princess knew that the queen mother missed their father.

Thinking that she had only cared about her own feelings for so many years and failed to fulfill her duties as a daughter, and seeing a few undyed silver threads on the side of the Queen Mother's ears, the eldest princess felt guilty.

The Queen Mother patted her hand lovingly, smiled and comforted her and said: "Hey, silly girl, you are not unfilial!

The queen mother is very fond of the food from Jiangzhou that you sent to her, as well as the Buddhist prayers that you copied by yourself.

Your filial piety will be kept in my heart by my mother! "

"Ah."

The eldest princess felt warm in her heart, then she turned her eyes and watched the performance with the Queen Mother.

After the birthday dance, the highlight of the birthday banquet is the presentation of congratulatory gifts.

The North Vietnamese envoys, whose relations with Tanglin were sometimes tense and sometimes peaceful, were the first to rise.

He raised his hands in front of him and gave the Empress Dowager the North Vietnamese salute.

"North Vietnamese envoy Batoru wishes the Empress Dowager Dongling a long life, good health and good luck every year!

I hereby present the following congratulatory gift to the Empress Dowager Dongling on behalf of the Emperor of North Vietnam! "

As soon as he finished speaking, several waiters wearing North Vietnamese costumes filed in from the side of the flower wall.

The four people in front held four trays in their hands, each of which placed a gold-inlaid brocade box.

The two people behind them each held a solid-color fur coat in their hands, one red and one black, with velvet as thin as silk. Just by looking at it, you could tell that it was priceless.

Slowly entering behind the six waiters was a woman wearing a rose-pink pearl scarf.

The woman was holding an animal the size of a rabbit in her arms, its snow-white fur glowing with silver, its head buried in her elbow, making its face unclear.

Silver fox cub?

Just by looking at her body, Su Liluo could tell what the animal was at a glance!

She had seen it in the Arctic Circle during previous missions.

In the past, when Long Nichang told her that he wanted a silver fox, she still wondered where to find it for her in this era!

Now, I actually saw it.

"silver fox?"

"Do you know what that is?"

Su Liluo didn't expect that Long Yunxuan would recognize it.

"Yeah." He nodded and said:

"I saw it on the snowfields before when we were fighting against North Vietnam. However, I heard that this thing is very spiritual and ordinary people can't catch it.

Let alone breeding. "

"Oh……"

Su Liluo looked at the little guy covered in silver and thought, what does the North Vietnamese envoy mean by sending a silver fox to celebrate the birthday of the imperial grandmother?

It can't be used to make a scarf for her, right?

A sly smile flashed in her eyes, Su Liluo thought, if this hair was used as a scarf, it would be very warm.

However, if Long Nishang saw that little crybaby, he would probably faint from crying...

Batoru walked down the long table with extremely arrogant steps, came to the waiters, and opened the four brocade boxes with his own hands.

In the first box, fist-sized luminous pearls bloomed in the night, instantly taking away the elegance of the candlelight around them.

In the second box, the red gold flower hairpin is full of weight, dazzling and shining.

In the third box, there is an ancient ginseng as thick as a baby's arm. It has long roots and is hard to find.

In the fourth box, there is a silver dagger embedded with various colorful gems, lying in it, showing its elegance.

The moment all four brocade boxes were opened, there were gasps and whispers throughout the banquet.

"Oh my God! Is North Vietnam so rich now?"

"Yes, a night pearl as big as a fist! We have never seen it before..."

"Look, that ginseng is as thick as a radish! How many years did it take to grow!?"

……

We can't blame the officials and family members of Dongling for sighing like this. It's not entirely because they haven't seen the world.

This gift from North Vietnam is really shocking!

Including the red and black fur coats of excellent texture at the back, these gifts are really eye-opening.

Even the envoys from Nanting and the Desert, who also came to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday, could not hold back their praises.

Compared with the North Vietnamese gift, their gift seemed a bit shabby.

Of course, Nanting wanted to avoid showing off or being rude, so the prime minister specially selected the white jade Buddha statue and the coral necklace that were sent to him after the Emperor Nanting approved them.

It doesn’t mean that their country’s national strength is not good enough.

As for the congratulatory gift from the Desert Royal Court, it was deliberately done by their Khan to humiliate Long Weiyang.

However, they didn't think there was anything wrong in the past.

At this moment, they were dazzled by these things from North Vietnam, and when they thought about the gifts they brought, they all felt a little shabby.

The effect was achieved, and the weathered folds on Batoru's dark and red face smiled a little deeper.
