The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn

"In addition, my father also specially asked me to bring a batch of rare treasures to present to His Majesty."

An Yichen reached out and patted his ear.

I saw a few slaves walking forward carrying a few boxes.

The boxes landed and were opened one by one.

There are five boxes in total, three of which contain some treasures and jewelry.

There were only a few strange things in the remaining two boxes.

An Yichen stepped forward and took out a long cylindrical object from a box.

He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this thing is called a kaleidoscope."

"kaleidoscope?"

Emperor Jianwen looked at the things in An Yichen's hands.

I saw An Yichen demonstrate it, and then handed it to Eunuch Wan so that Emperor Jianwen could see it.

Eunuch Wan carefully inspected it first and handed it over to Emperor Jianwen after confirming that there was no danger.

Emperor Jianwen followed An Yichen's demonstration and placed the kaleidoscope over his eyes.

The next moment, Emperor Jianwen's face showed a little surprise, but it quickly disappeared.

"This kaleidoscope is indeed interesting, but it's novel, and it won't be interesting if you see it too much."

Emperor Jianwen put down the kaleidoscope and looked back at An Yichen.

An Yichen was not embarrassed and asked someone to take something out of the box.

It is a bright red coral sculpture.

Just looking at it with your eyes, the jade quality is very warm.

"I specially invited the most famous craftsmen to polish it over half a year and dedicated it to His Majesty."

"What's so special about this jade?"

Emperor Jianwen heard that An Yichen still had something to say and asked.

An Yichen replied: "Your Majesty is right, this jade does have something special, but it still needs some conditions."

He looked around and said, "Your Majesty, please agree to extinguish the lights around us."

Emperor Jianwen gave Eunuch Wan a look, and the latter nodded and ordered people to put out the lights.

Within a few breaths, the candles were extinguished one by one.

Only the coral jade sculpture next to An Yichen actually emitted a glowing light.

The exclamations one after another further prove the magic of jade carving.

Su Leyun also looked surprised. It was really interesting that there was such a luminous jade.

The candles were lit and light returned to the surrounding area.

"This jade is indeed interesting."

Beside him, Situ Danqi couldn't help but speak, with surprise in his words.

The few remaining items were not as novel as the jade, but they also opened the eyes of those present.

"I have also prepared a gift for the Queen Mother, but you need Your Majesty and the Queen Mother's entourage to go outside the palace to view it."

The curiosity of Emperor Jianwen and the Queen Mother had already been raised by An Yichen, and upon seeing this, they did not refuse.

"All my dear friends, please come with me and have a look."

When Emperor Jianwen spoke, the ministers naturally did not dare to refuse.

The remaining ladies and ladies also followed and walked out of the hall together.

Su Leyun gathered up his coat and smelled a faint smell of gunpowder in his nose.

She frowned slightly, but before she could figure it out, there was a loud noise in her ears.

Everyone was shocked.

The guards also jumped out to protect Emperor Jianwen.

Su Leyun looked up at the sky, and colorful flowers bloomed in the sky.

When no more flowers bloomed in the sky, everyone turned around and returned to the hall, but their faces could not hide their curiosity and interest.

"I heard this sound, it sounds very similar to firecrackers and gunpowder."

Emperor Jianwen pointed out this principle easily. An Yichen stepped forward and bowed: "Your Majesty, what your Majesty said is correct. This object is modified from firecrackers and is called fireworks."

"Fireworks...is indeed a good name."

Emperor Jianwen nodded clearly, waved his hand, and rewarded An Yichen with many things.

Several more song and dance performances followed.

Finally it was time for Mrs. Lin to give her birthday gift.

Mrs. Lin stepped forward slowly, followed by several maids carrying a screen frame covered with red cloth.

"I would like to send a birthday gift to the Queen Mother. I wish the Queen Mother to be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."

As Mrs. Lin's voice fell, the maid gradually took off the red cloth covering the shelf and displayed a huge embroidery in front of everyone.

A hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but stand up, and with the help of the palace maid, she walked to the screen and admired it carefully.

"Okay, okay! This picture of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix looks like the real thing."

Just as the Queen Mother finished speaking, several brightly colored birds flapped their wings and flew into the palace.

After hovering in the air for a few times, a few birds slowly landed on the screen.

It happened to stop on those exceptionally delicate and real flowers.

"Mrs. Lin's embroidery can actually attract birds," the Queen Mother sighed, "your embroidery skills are getting more and more outstanding."

Mrs. Lin quickly said: "I don't dare to claim credit. This embroidery was not done by me."

"Oh? There is someone whose embroidery skills are better than yours."

As she spoke, the Queen Mother seemed to notice something, walked around the screen and looked behind, then showed a surprised look.

"Is this still a double-sided embroidery?"

The Queen Mother became more and more curious about who the artist was.

Mrs. Lin glanced at Su Leyun and saw that she had no intention of refusing, so she said, "This picture of a hundred birds facing the phoenix was actually sewn by Miss Su Leyun and Miss Liu Qin."

"Liu Qin, her double-sided embroidery is indeed amazing, but who is this Miss Su Leyun?"

The Queen Mother vaguely thought she had heard of this name, but did not recall it for a moment.

Su Leyun stood up and knelt down in front of the Queen Mother, "People's daughter Su Leyun has met the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is a thousand years old."

"You are Su Leyun." The Queen Mother looked at Su Leyun and looked her up and down. "It seems that the Ai family has never seen you before."

"The daughter of the common people came back from Jingzhou just a few years ago, and she only had the honor to see the face of the Queen Mother at the palace banquet during the Chinese New Year."

"You are the legitimate daughter of the Su family. You do look a lot like your mother."

The Queen Mother reacted now and glanced across Xiao Shengyu. Seeing that her grandson's eyes did not fall on Su Leyun at all, she also guessed something in her heart.

If her grandson really didn't care, she shouldn't have behaved like this.

"The Ai family is very satisfied with this embroidery. What reward do you want?"

Judging from this sentence, the Queen Mother was indeed very satisfied with the picture of hundreds of birds facing the phoenix, and she actually let Su Leyun ask for rewards at will.

Sun Jiarou's worried eyes fell on Su Leyun. She was worried that Yun'er would say something greedy.

Su Leyun was waiting for the Queen Mother's words, but he still became nervous.

She took a deep breath and looked up at the Queen Mother.

"The Queen Mother, a common woman shouldn't be greedy and open her mouth, but a common daughter does have something to ask for."

"What's the matter?"

The Queen Mother's voice was a bit colder, as if she thought Su Leyun was going to make some extremely excessive demands.

"The people's daughter wants to ask the Queen Mother to testify on her behalf, clarify her identity, and give the people's daughter justice!"

Su Leyun kowtowed heavily, his voice echoing throughout the hall.

As early as when Su Leyun came forward, Su Changqing's heart was pounding, always feeling that something bad would happen.

Now it has come true.
