Chapter 878 (1/2)
And even like the moon, everything is ready, and there is nothing left to lead the snake out of the hole.

Two days later, Emperor Zhou chengdi suddenly looked better. It coincided with his birthday. The Empress Dowager advocated recruiting people to celebrate on a small scale.
Zhou chengdi didn't see anyone in bed these days, so he agreed, and the Empress Dowager personally supervised the birthday party.
On the day of Emperor Zhou Cheng's birthday, only a few concubines in the harem and several princes and princesses were eligible to participate. In addition, the Duke of Wei and Wei Ruhao's grandparents and grandchildren were also present, which shows the importance they received after offering the Pearl.
On the day of the birthday banquet, the people went to the Rongyuan hall, kowtowed to Emperor Zhou chengdi, shouted long live, long live, and congratulated the emperor on his recovery.
Before the banquet, several princes sat around the emperor and listened to the holy intention, while the women's family members spoke in the back hall.
The whole Rongyuan hall was full of laughter and Yanyan. Emperor Zhou chengdi looked a lot better, so no one thought his body was almost better, so they prayed around him one by one.
At this time, his highness Feng Ye said, ”Duke Wei, I didn't expect your pearl to have this power. Thanks to you for sending the Pearl from afar.” The corners of the lips aroused an imperceptible sneer.
”Your Highness, the emperor is blessed.” Duke Wei bowed.
”Ha ha ha.” Zhou chengdi smiled. He hadn't smiled so brightly for a long time. Although there was still a disease between his eyebrows and eyes, generally speaking, he was in a good mental state and had a drink.
”Your Majesty.” At this time, Duke Wei looked at the pearl inlaid on the red sandalwood case and suddenly closed his eyes.
”What's the situation, Duke Wei?” Zhou chengdi asked.
”According to the placement of this pearl in Shengdu, it should be placed in the West today and tomorrow.” Wei Guogong said.
”West? That's the back hall? ” The second prince looked at the location and said.
”Yes, your highness.” The state of Wei is fair.
”Then move it to the back hall.” Emperor Zhou chengdi gave permission.
So Feng Degui and several eunuchs carried it and slowly moved it to the back hall.

Back hall.
The Empress Dowager sat at the top. Wei Ruhao, who was being favored, stood beside her. Princess Xu Xianfei was also talking with Princess Feng. Her eyes occasionally fell on Lian Yueh, revealing an imperceptible faint smile.
The other concubines sat on the left and right sides, and Lian Xiangyue sat two places away from the empress dowager, talking to the five princesses on one side.
”Princess Heng, why don't you see your empress.”
At this time, Wei Ru looked around and asked.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes looked at Lian Siyue.
”Thank you princess Jian'an for your concern. Last time I personally sent the tonic, I still miss it today. My mother's body is really worse than before these days. She can't get out of bed. She asked me to tell it in front of my father early in the morning.” Lian Xiangyue said anxiously.
