Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 183 Birthday Banquet (9) (Update)

Lu Li suppressed the excitement in his heart and waited for the reward quietly. Unfortunately, after a long time, the sword called Longyin was delivered to him, but the emperor seemed to have no intention of giving it to him.

Lu Li felt anxious instantly. He looked straight at the sword in his father-in-law's hand. However, the emperor just glanced at him lightly and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mrs. Lu, for your kindness. Since the queen mother likes it, I will too." We can’t treat her badly, anyone who comes will be rewarded heavily.”

"yes!"

Lu Li's expression froze. Everything he expected didn't happen. It was obviously him who presented the jade Ruyi, so why was it that the person the Emperor was thanking was his grandmother?

"Your Majesty, this jade Ruyi is..."

Before he could finish his words, the emperor heard the emperor smile and say: "Since Mrs. Lu has allowed Third Young Master Lu to come and deliver congratulatory gifts, naturally you are indispensable. Come and reward Lu Mansion with one hundred taels of gold and ten pieces of brocade." , four boxes of jewelry, like a pair of jade, and an exquisite jade pendant for Third Young Master Lu."

"Yes!" The father-in-law on the side respectfully agreed, then raised his head to the center of the hall and repeated loudly what the emperor just said.

After a while, someone brought up the ordered items one by one. Lu Yi and Lu Yuan, as well as Lu Ying and Lu Qi all stood up from their seats and walked to the center of the hall to express their gratitude.

Lu Li was simply dumbfounded. This was nothing like what he had imagined. It was only reasonable that the Emperor Long Yan should be delighted, reward him with a bunch of good things, and then let himself take Lu Yuan's place.

But... all the gold, silver and jewelry given as rewards belong to the Lu family, but only one jade pendant belongs to him? This is impossible!

"Why don't you kneel down and give thanks?"

Lu Yi glared at Lu Li, who was still in a state of shock, wishing he could kick him out of the hall.

"What? Mr. Lu, is he dissatisfied with my reward?"

The emperor's voice dropped, with deep displeasure in it.

Lu Li was startled and hurriedly knelt down, gritting his teeth unwillingly and saying: "Lu Li doesn't dare, thank you for your majesty's reward!"

"Yes!" The emperor nodded, and then said with a smile: "Let's all be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Lu Yi stood up with the people from Lu Mansion, and then returned to his place.

The people nearby were all whispering about the jade Ruyi, and they praised Lu Mansion's generosity from time to time, even bringing out family heirlooms as gifts to His Majesty.

Of course, some people say that Lu Mansion Panyan was so powerful that he even gave away family heirlooms in order to please the emperor.

Lu Li's face turned blue and white in turns, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Lu Yi glanced at him lightly and snorted coldly.

The only good thing today is that the Lu family is the only family to receive a reward. Some people can't help but feel a little sour in their hearts when they see it.

"Yuan'er, do you still have something to say?"

The emperor couldn't help but be curious when he saw Lu Yuan standing still.

Lu Yuan nodded softly, "I have something that I want to give to Your Majesty."

He turned around and nodded to Zhao Bin, who was standing behind his seat. Zhao Bin understood and presented the box with the blooming crape myrtle carved on it.

Lu Li snorted coldly, he is the third son of Lu, and Lu Yuan is Yuan'er. You can know the importance of this at a glance.

Lu Ying whispered in his ear: "Brother, don't worry, Yu Ruyi has been given away. No matter how powerful Lu Yuan is, he can't get anything more precious than Yu Ruyi."

In fact, they were wrong from beginning to end. Even if Lu Yuan's gift was just an ordinary gift, the emperor would still show joy.

Not only because Lu Yuan was his nephew and a legend in the Great Zhou Dynasty, but also because Lu Yuan once inadvertently saved his life. Almost no one except him and Lu Yuan knew about this.

This was also the reason why he protected Lu Yuan again and again.

It is said to be updated in the middle of the night, but I fell asleep during the middle of the update. It is really a sin. There are still four more updates.
