Chapter 192 A Gift Battle in the Birthday Ceremony
The Emperor's birthday, as its name showed, was the festival to celebrate the birthday of the Emperor. As usual, people would have three-days off for this festival. On the exact day of the Emperor's birthday, the celebrations were livelier. In an important sense, the ceremony for the Emperor's birthday was more important than the ones for the Empress Dowager's birthday and the Empress's birthday.
However, the Emperor was tired of superficial things. The more he stayed on the throne, the less he liked to show his face in public. What was more, the Emperor and others were living in Mount Dizi for the summer vacation now. The place over here was smaller than the palace in the capital, which meant that there might not be enough room for various activities. Hence, every year, the Emperor would decree an order to go through the motions, showing his "care" for his people.
However, it was not his call.
This year was his 40th birthday, and more importan

Mengtao hurriedly said, "No. I have something to tell you." She bent down and whispered to her, "Her Majesty asked if you could write another one similar to the one written at Jinxiu Slope back then."Qiu Yelan's look suddenly changed, "About the Emperor's birthday?""Not necessarily." Mengtao's voice was lower, "As long as it is auspicious and beautiful, it will do!"Qiu Yelan recalled the guidance of Ruan Ciyi, the noble lady. As the future daughter-in-law of the Jiang Family, she must not be low-key when she should be in the limelight. Otherwise, she would be underestimated by her sisters-in-law, and even by the elders of the Jiang Family. And then her life here wouldn't be easy in the future.She nodded thoughtfully, "I'll think about it. It should be easy!" Then she asked, "When is it needed? Before the middle of the banquet?""Before the end of the banquet." Mengtao whispered, "Don't worry about the flower. It's

"I found out about it just now." Jiang Yashuang smiled bitterly, "Earlier, a servant said that my aunt heard that I hadn't seen you for a few days, so she especially gave us a chance. But when I was on the way, I felt that something was wrong. The servant didn't tell me about it until I forced him."He apologized, "How about I accompany you back? This is Jiang Qisheng and Cousin Tao's fault. They shouldn't make you leave just because they don't want to see you.""You are also the one to blame!" Qiu Yelan angrily said, "With the news, I'm being polite not to beat you. But you wanted me to kiss you.""I know that you might beat me after I have said it, so I wanted you to kiss me before I told you." Jiang Yashuang coughed with embarrassment, "So what now? Shall we go back?"Qiu Yelan kept her face sullen for a long time before saying, "Most of your family want me to leave, right?"To be the ghostwriter of Prince of Qi sho
The Counterattack of the Downcast Queen Chapter 195 Earthquake! Live or Die Together!

In a normal situation, Xue Nongying would do the same.But Qiu Shen didn't realize that the person in the woods was Xue Nongying, so he aimed to kill. Now, this had already happened, would Xue Nongying still hide for them and not expose them?Besides, this was the scenario of successfully saving him.

What Qiu Yelan didn't know was that at this moment, Qiu Jinglan was also nervous with worry in Green Villa!Regardless of the wound that had just split open again during the earthquake, he used his blood-stained hand to hand an inconspicuous but close-fitting porcelain bottle to Qiu Feng, "Go and find my sister and bring her back! If she is injured, feed this to her! Hurry up!"Qiu Feng's head and body were covered with dust and his wrist was wrapped by a handkerchief because he got injured when he saved a servant. He took the porcelain bottle without saying anything, turned around, and then left, disappearing from the sight of the people of Green Villa after a few steps!Ling Zui was surprised, who was getting a breathing space aside, "Didn't you say that you've lied to him for several years, so he must want something from you since he came to you this time? Why doesn't he take the opportunity to set some conditions? Are people in Jianghu so s

It was not the moment for a long talk, so they exhorted each other to be careful and took different roads.Qiu Yelan found some falling stones blocking the road after she walked a few steps. The road was clogged completely."Is there a shortcut nearby?" She asked urgently to the bodyguard sent by Jiang Yashuang.The bodyguard thought for a while and said, "Your Grace, there's no other way, unless we dribble up the stream from below and take a short detour after we get to the other side," He was a little worried. "Usually the stream isn't as deep as up to our knees, but now..."Qiu Yelan was not in the mood to listen more. She interrupted, "Let's go and check!"The bodyguard said immediately, "Your Grace, please follow me!”After following him for some distance from the almost completely collapsed mountain, she did see a muddy stream with yellow water that overflowed its banks. The bodyguard turned pale at

"That's what I just said. We pulled him out of the stream." Of course, Qiu Yelan knew why he wanted everyone to keep it a secret, "I actually was confused too. It looked like that the bamboo in his chest wasn't accidentally pierced during the earthquake. It was like that someone did it on purpose... When I found him, I looked upstream, but I saw nothing! What's more, he was tied to the driftwood by his own belt."Qiu Jinglan became very serious, "With my teacher Xue's personality, how could his grandson be subjected to such a vicious act?" From the point of Xue Chang's treatment to him, a disciple who concealed his real identity, it could be seen that although this famous prime minister of the dynasty was in a high position of power, he was not impersonal, but amiable.In principle, with the help of such an elder, it was safer for Xue Nongying to go out than Gu Yan and Jiang Yashuang! But as far as they knew, nothing had happened to Gu Yan and Jiang Yashuan

After learning about the injuries of his own family, he was immediately o

Xue Nongqing just fell in a faint, while Qiu Jinglan and Qiu Yelan ran around for her. Qiu Jinglan was busy asking Qi Shuluo to diagnose and treat Xue Nongying, but he had to prevent him from playing tricks and tipping off at the same time; and Qiu Yelan, on the other hand, sent Xue Nongqing back to the Xue Family under the name of "Miss Nongqing seemed to be frightened, so she fainted just now while speaking", and by the way told the Xue Family that Xue Nongying's injury had worsened.The Xue Family was naturally shocked when they heard the news. As the prime minister, Xue Chang was shocked, but he was still calm. He agreed decisively, "Go downhill! Even if Qi Shuluo wouldn't plot to murder Ying'er, the herbs on the mountain are even not available. They even can't live in a house after being injured.
