Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 125 Autumn Banquet

The Queen's Qianqiu Banquet was held in Zhaoyang Palace, and the birthday banquet was about to begin soon. All civil and military officials from the dynasty gathered in the hall.

Situ Jin stood at the gate of Zhaoyang Palace and saw Su Ying coming. He smiled and went up to take Su Ying into the hall.

The queen was dressed elegantly in gorgeous clothes. Situ Lin held her hand and sat on the top throne.

After everyone saluted and sent congratulatory gifts and messages, the queen smiled and looked at the people below.

The congratulatory gifts sent by the ministers are not the focus, the prince's congratulatory gifts are the focus of everyone's attention.

The prince and his concubine came forward and knelt down to salute: "I wish my mother and queen eternal longevity and eternal youth."

After saying that, he asked people to carry up the big mahogany box outside the palace. Everyone showed curious expressions. The prince is the son of the queen. It must have taken a lot of thought to get this gift.

The red cloth was uncovered, and everyone's faces were full of surprise. The red coral was more than one meter high, with a ruddy color that was rare in the world.

The queen's face was full of smiles. Today, the queen was not wearing a veil. The burns had long since healed without any scars. Su Ying couldn't help but sigh that there were so many good things in the palace.

"The Crown Prince and Crown Princess are very interested. I am very satisfied with this gift." The Crown Prince and Crown Princess in front of the Queen were very satisfied.

The second prince and the third prince presented a jade Buddha. The jade color was crystal clear and extraordinary.

Soon Situ Jin and Su Ying arrived, and the two presented congratulatory messages. Everyone saw the father-in-law behind Situ Jin holding the tray without any effort at all, and there was an inquiring look on his face.

The seventh prince grew up in Jincheng. He only returned to the capital recently, but he has repeatedly opposed the queen and the prince. Today is the queen's birthday. Compared with the gifts of other princes, everyone is more curious about what gift the seventh prince will give to the queen today.

Su Ying met everyone's gaze, turned slightly to look behind her, and asked in a low voice: "What gift has the prince prepared?"

Situ Jin raised his eyebrows: "Don't worry, it will be revealed soon."

Situ Jin gave a slight salute to the queen: "I have heard that the queen likes to collect all kinds of rare treasures. As the mother of the country, the queen is no shortage of treasures. I can only start from other aspects and choose the right one for my mother." I ordered someone to make a strange gift using the materials. I hope that the Queen Mother will not despise the gift from her sons and ministers as vulgar."

When the queen heard what Situ Jin said, she saw a smile on Situ Jin's face, but the smile did not reach her eyes. She felt a trace of fear in her heart for some reason, so she could only follow his words and said: "Old Qi is joking. You are all good princes to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother will naturally be satisfied with the gift the Emperor chooses."

Situ Jin reached out and took the tray from the father-in-law's hand, walked up the jade steps, and handed the tray to the queen: "I ask the queen to open it herself."

The queen met his gaze, stretched out her hand to touch the red cloth on the tray, and uncovered the red cloth with her own hands, only to see a small drum in the middle of the tray. The drum was extremely exquisitely made with complicated patterns painted on it. The queen stretched out her hand He took the drum and looked at it carefully in his hand: "Old Qi, what's so different about this drum?"

Everyone below saw that what Situ Jin presented was just a small drum, but he said it was so mysterious. Now that it was revealed, everyone felt that the seventh prince was a bit exaggerated.

The corners of Situ Jin's lips raised slightly, with a hint of indifference on his face: "My son gave this drum to my mother, but I put a lot of thought into it, such as the material of the drum head, but I chose a girl who is not hair-haired. I ordered people to peel off the skin from her body, and after many tedious processes, I made this small drum. Unfortunately, the woman was too thin, and it was only enough to make this size."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar. The queen felt the drum in her hand was getting cold. She looked at Situ Jin and saw that his face was calm, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary thing, but from his eyes, the queen felt... Feeling that what he said was the truth, she shook her hand and the drum in her hand fell off and fell to the ground, making a "dong-dong" sound. The sound directly touched the depths of people's souls.

The corner of Su Ying's mouth moved slightly, with a faint smile. He actually peeled off the skin of his friend and made it into a drum for the queen.

In front of everyone, according to her prince's temperament, today's queen is afraid that she will be angered and internally injured again.

"Old Qi, you are so presumptuous!" Situ Lin shouted angrily when he saw the queen's pale face.

"The emperor's brother is too cruel. How could the emperor give such a bloody thing to the Queen's Qianqiu Banquet?" The prince's eyes darkened, and there was a hint of gloom in his voice.

"How can my father say such things to my son? My son also has a lot of thoughts."

"Why is the prince so angry? Speaking of blood, wasn't the red coral that the prince sent someone risked his life to pick it? I can only sacrifice one life, so such a big red coral must be picked and sent back intact. In the palace, I'm afraid more than one person will die. What's more, the maid wants to kill the king's princess with a poisonous snake. I am just kind-hearted and let her die a worthwhile death before she dies. The maid is the queen. It was sent to my palace on my wedding night."

"But before she died, she said that the queen ordered her to do it. Naturally, I didn't believe it. The queen is my queen's mother. How could she send someone to assassinate me? In anger, I skinned her and became this person. Leather drum.”

"The King believes in the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother will definitely understand what her son means, right? Queen Mother?"

The queen looked at the people below and saw that the ministers below were all looking at her with strange eyes. She couldn't help but tremble all over. If he were allowed to continue talking, her old background would be exposed. She took a breath and said: "I Naturally, I will not use such despicable means to harm Lao Qi. This lowly servant dared to cause trouble in the Jin Palace to fight for favor, so she deserves to die."

"How do you feel about this gift from your son?" Situ Jin smiled but insisted on an answer.

A coldness suddenly appeared in the Queen's eyes, and she couldn't help but bite her back teeth: "I am very satisfied."

Situ Jin turned around and saw Situ Lin glaring at him angrily. He smiled and said, "Father, today is the Queen Mother's Qianqiu Banquet, so be happy."

After saying that, he walked down the jade steps without looking back, holding Su Ying's hand and returning to his seat.

Su Ying lowered her head and came to Situ Jin's side softly: "Your Majesty is getting better and better at irritating people, but with just a few words, the Queen was so angry that she wanted to leave on the spot."

Situ Jin raised his eyes and glanced at the two people on the throne, and then glanced at the prince provocatively. The prince was so angry that veins popped up on his face, and he clenched his fingers into fists and pressed them hard on the table in front of him.

Situ Jin had a somewhat relaxed expression on his face, as if what had happened just now had not happened at all. He stretched out his hand to push away the orange in front of him, peeled off the orange peel and handed it to Su Ying: "If I don't use some extraordinary means, I won't be able to do anything in the future." I don’t know how many women are going to be crammed into the king’s backyard, but for my wife’s sake, I will put an end to her worries. She must appreciate the hard work she has put in for her husband!”

Su Ying raised her eyelids and gave him an annoyed look, then peeled off a piece of the orange in her hand and handed it to his mouth. He opened his mouth and took it.

Everyone in the main hall saw King Jin and the princess making the emperor and queen very angry, but they acted as if nothing had happened. Everyone had different thoughts.
