Chapter 828: The Birthday Falls on the First Day of the Lunar New Year
Honey Dou walked in carrying the food box, with a smile on her round face.
"Your Majesty, this servant specially made your favorite fried shrimp dumplings and red bean porridge." She brought out the food.
Yuzhu came over to look at it, and said with a smile, "Since Sister Hongdou got married, Midou is the best cook here."
Mi Dou is very proud: "I, I've made it to the top. However, I am different from Sister Hong Dou in what I am good at. I have learned more from my mother. I was with Concubine Jing before. She has a bad appetite and is picky eaters. It's hard to wait."
"So I learned everything you forced me to do? This is also a good thing." Yun Dai walked over and sat down, "Remember, a leader who can make you improve is a good leader."
"What is a leader?" Yuzhu asked.
"Your leader is me." Yun Dai pointed at herself.
Yuzhu suddenly said: "Oh, the leader is the master?"
"You're right to say that..." Yun Dai said.
Mi Dou said curiously: "That empress has no leader."
"Why didn't I? The Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, aren't they all led by me?" Yun Dai laughed.
"The emperor? The emperor is the husband of the empress. How did you become the master?"
"In front of the emperor, everyone is a slave." Yun Dai stretched out her hand to pinch a fried dumpling and stuffed it into her mouth, "Yuzhu, you don't need to be here, go and see if Yan'er and the princesses are awake."
Yuzhu smiled and said: "Young masters can wake up earlier than your mother. There will be a ritual to ward off evil spirits later, Your Majesty, we must hurry up. The slaves go to see the little masters."
Not long after she left, she led the nurses and carried Yan'er and the two little princesses over.
The three children also changed into new clothes and jackets. Yan'er was dressed in a light yellow padded robe and a fluffy hat. The two little princesses are festive red, wrapped in red ingot cloaks, and their pink and white faces are getting cuter.
While drinking porridge, Yun Dai asked, "Yan'er, have you and your sisters eaten?"
Yan'er took the nurse's hand and said politely: "After returning to mother, Yan'er had breakfast."
Yuzhu said: "Your Highness, the two princesses have also been fed. Madam, don't worry, today the slaves and Mi Dou will serve the little masters, Ziyi and Tsing Yi, you follow your majesty, support them when you should, don't call your majesty too tired."
The two sisters in Tsing Yi and Zi Yi hurriedly responded.
After eating breakfast, Yun Dai led the three children, and the group set off towards Huangji Hall.
It is used for offering sacrifices to heaven or grand celebrations.
All the princes, ministers, civil and military officials have all arrived.
Zhao Yuanjing was also sitting on the gate tower, looking down.
When Yun Dai walked over, Jin Yao and Guo Ning also walked over from both sides.
They greeted each other first, and then came to greet Yun Dai together.
Guo Ning was wearing bright colors, and he had a smile on his face. He said, "My concubine pays her respects to the empress, and wishes her good health and prosperity in the coming year."
"The same is true for Ah Ning, I wish you a happy New Year." Yun Dai smiled sincerely.
Jin Yao also came forward, slightly bent her knees, and said, "I have seen the Empress in person."
She was wrapped in thick fur, covering half of her calm face. There is also a slight smile on his face, but there is no happy expression, but there is a lot of melancholy and anxiety in his eyes.
A few years ago, the imperial doctor said that she would not live to be eighteen, her birthday was on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and tomorrow would be seventeen.
