Before the holy chariot arrived, the singing and dancing in the hall were peaceful, and the silk and bamboo strings were endless. The crowd chatted.

The eunuch sings: The emperor is here!

The holy chariot came, and everyone got up and kowtowed to welcome the holy chariot.

After the saint was seated, the singers retreated one after another.

The sage raised his glass and said with a smile: "Today is my sixty-fifth birthday, and it has been just 40 years since I ascended the throne. I watched the Daxia Dynasty under my governance, under the guard of my children and grandchildren, and with the joint efforts of my courtiers. , Guotai Min'an, I am very relieved! Come, I will give you a toast to express my gratitude!"

"Thanks my emperor!" Everyone got up together, raised their glasses and said in unison.

After the ministers took their seats, the noble concubine and the concubines led the concubines and concubines of the harem to raise their glasses again.

"Chen and concubines and concubines to the emperor, I wish the emperor a healthy body and a long life!"

There are a lot of concubines in the saint, and many of them are concubines with children. They really raise their glasses to celebrate their birthdays, and the saint has to drink on the face of the children.

But if this is the case, he doesn't have to wait for the ceremony to finish, he will be drunk, and the birthday banquet does not need to continue.

So all along, on important occasions, the concubine and the concubine toast together.

The concubines are all getting old, and they will no longer compete for favor, and the son is not around, the harem is very calm. Everyone lives a retirement life of raising flowers and teasing dogs, and often they can make appointments and hang horses to pass the time.

"Okay!" After the emperor finished his drink, he smiled and looked at the imperial concubine, "Today, the imperial concubine has worked hard!"

"What a lot of hard work, being able to take care of the harem for the sage and organize a palace banquet is a blessing for the servants and concubines!"

After the concubines' toasts were over, it was the prince's turn. The prince got up and brought the prince and the children of the East Palace out to celebrate their birthdays!

"I wish the father a happy birthday! Every year has today, every year has today!"

"Be flat!"

After the concubine and the others returned to their positions according to the rules, the prince said, "My son has prepared a few birthday gifts for the emperor, please take a look at the emperor. Bring them up..."

Several attendants presented three kinds of gifts to the temple, and the crown prince opened the red cloth from the first one, explaining: "This is the black pearl of the South China Sea! It is rare that there are two identical baby fists.

"

Everyone in the hall nodded. Black pearls are not common at all, let alone two so large, it is even more rare that they are exactly the same.

Satisfied, he lifted the red cloth again, "These two are the golden thread jade clothes of the Han Dynasty."

All the ministers stood up in surprise and watched, "It's really a golden thread and jade robe..."

This set of golden thread jade clothes has a fat body and is covered with gold and jade. The total length is 1.88 meters. It shares 2498 pieces of jade, and the gold thread is about 1100 grams. The corners of the jade pieces are perforated, and they are woven with threads of gold. This is the golden thread jade clothing only in the Han Dynasty.

Everyone was amazed when they heard the prince's explanation, but many literati looked more and more mysterious, glanced at the emperor vaguely, and then looked at the prince with sympathy.

But there was no joy on the emperor's face. The more he listened, the darker his eyes became. It seemed that a storm was brewing, and he stared straight at the prince, as if he wanted to see into his heart.

The noble concubine had accompanied the emperor for decades, and it could be said that she knew the emperor's temperament very well. Seeing his face, she knew that he was on the verge of rage.

Even the generals who didn't understand the golden thread and jade clothes found that the saint's expression was wrong, and gradually calmed down, and the hall suddenly became silent.

Zhou Cheng was waiting outside the hall for the next wave of gifts from the King of Liaodong. Seeing that the hall suddenly became quiet, he realized that something was wrong, and he did not dare to look at it at will.

Suddenly, my heart jumped up quickly, as if it was about to jump out of my throat. He thought that his prince was in such a hurry to arrange the birthday gift, and the prince was exposed so soon?

The prince saw that the hall was slowly quieting down. Only then did he realize that something was wrong, and when he looked at the emperor's face, he knelt down in fright.

"Father..." He said nervously, not knowing why the father was angry for a while!

"Golden thread jade clothes, such a golden thread jade clothes, you are really my good son." The emperor smashed the wine glass directly at the prince, the prince did not dare to escape, the wine glass hit the prince's forehead directly, fell and shattered .

When the ministers saw the sage's anger, they dared not sit on their knees any longer. They all straightened up and kneeled respectfully.

The prince's heart was also trembling. He hadn't figured out what was wrong with the golden thread and jade clothes. This was a peerless treasure of the Han Dynasty that he had spent a lot of money and managed to find.

"Father, my son doesn't understand."

"I don't understand. You are familiar with the history of the scriptures. You don't know what the role of the golden thread and jade clothes is, and who is it for?"

The prince suddenly realized, his pupils tightened, yes... yes... dead...

He was shaking his teeth and didn't dare to make a sound.

"Emperor calm down, the crown prince may have not checked it for a while, and didn't think of the origin of the golden thread and jade clothes, so that's why..." The imperial concubine spoke on behalf of the prince, and her heart blossomed.

The prince has become more and more confused in recent years, and his brain has become more and more useless. I don't know if it is the effect of that thing.

No one among the officials in the East Palace knew that the prince wanted to present the golden thread and jade clothes. I wonder if the prince was afraid of being framed, so he hid it from everyone. It turned out to be self-defeating.

Tonight's golden thread jade clothes is simply a stroke of genius. She was shocked when she saw the golden thread jade clothes. She almost couldn't believe it. She didn't expect the prince to be so stupid and kill himself.

"Yes, Royal Father, I really didn't think of its use." The prince was so frightened that he didn't even dare to say the word "Jade Clothes".

"Brother, you really don't know, or pretend you don't. Even people like me who don't like to read know that the golden thread jade clothes are worn by the dead, and they were famous shrouds in the Han Dynasty. Its function is to protect the body from rot. You are cursing your father by giving your father a golden thread and jade robe on his father's birthday."

The King of Huainan was bold and not afraid of death, and spoke out the words that everyone tabooed.

The noble concubine silently praised King Huainan in her heart, and it was another assist!

Hearing that, the emperor's face darkened, his beard trembled, and his right hand slapped the table fiercely and said, "Nizi, you wish I died early so that I could become emperor."

Fruit snacks were scattered on the desk, the wine jugs were poured over, and the wine dripped onto the dragon robe. The eunuchs and maids knelt on the ground, and no one dared to step forward to clean up at this time.

"My son doesn't dare, my son doesn't dare, my father, I really didn't expect it." The crown prince knelt down and kowtowed, begging for guilt.

Taisun stood up and knelt beside his father, kowtowed, and pleaded, "Grandpa Huang, he really doesn't know about my father, how could he dare to curse the emperor in public? He really doesn't know."

"Hmph, he wouldn't know about it? Then tell me, is there any civil and military officials in the audience who don't know that the golden thread jade clothes are for the dead." The emperor gritted his teeth and focused on the word "dead".
