Concubine Xi sat next to the emperor, looking at Yue Li and Ye Qin's eyebrows and eyes, she covered her lips and smiled, and said to the emperor:

"Your Majesty, look at the eldest princess and Lord Ye. It's a perfect match when you look at each other across the river."

The emperor then came to his senses from the spirit of immersed in the performance of the concubines and followed the eyes of Concubine Xi.

Seeing Yue Li just threw a charming look at Ye Qin, Ye Qin also felt with a smile on his face.

The emperor suddenly felt that today's birthday was no longer good, and his daughter was being missed.

His eyes sank, and he yelled in a low voice: "What nonsense!"

Concubine Xi, who was scolded, was not annoyed, and asked with a smile: "Don't the emperor think they are very good together?"

The emperor looked at their interaction intently. Although he didn't want to admit it, he looked like a talented man and a beautiful woman, and she was really a perfect match.

Yue Li didn't know yet, but she was already thinking about her father.

In short, this eldest princess is already over 17 years old. If she is according to folk customs, she is actually an old unmarried girl.

"Grand Princess, I wonder what gift the eldest princess has prepared for the emperor today?" Concubine Xi asked a question.

She no longer wanted to watch the low-ranking concubines below compete for favor. It was meaningless. It was like this every year. Although she was in the cold palace for the first three years, she had no chance to see this grand scene.

When Yue Li heard this question, her beautiful eyes flashed. Is it finally her turn to make her debut?

She answered a little excited, but reservedly: "Empress Xi, it's just Yan Yue who made something with her own hands, and she couldn't do anything."

Oh? Something made by yourself?

The emperor suddenly became interested.

"I made some things myself, so I'm lucky this year. Can I actually see my eldest princess's clever side?"

Yue Li stood up and signaled outside the hall.

A group of palace servants slowly walked into the hall with something 1.5 feet high, and several other palace servants carried a table and placed it in the center of Chaoyang Palace.

Yue Li smiled with satisfaction. When they put the cake on the table, she walked to the cake and stood next to it.

Motionally everyone to watch it carefully, she pulled away the red cloth blocking outside the cake and carefully lifted the lid.

A large three-layer cake was exposed in front of everyone, layer by layer decorated with red and white cream, and there were cream flowers underneath.

The higher the layer, the more refined it becomes, until the top layer is made of two large longevity peaches, and a Fulu Shou Old Man was pinched in the middle.

The whole cake is full of elements to celebrate birthdays.

He pointed to the cake and said, "Father, this thing is called the birthday cake. It was seen by Suo Yue in a book. He was surprised and made it tentatively."

“Everything on it is edible.”

The emperor sat on the hall with his eyes wide open, as if he was disgusted with not being able to see clearly, so he quickly stood up from his seat, walked down the steps, came to the cake, and observed carefully.

Concubine Xi, who was behind, saw that the emperor had gone down, and she was also a little curious, so she followed the emperor down the steps and observed the cake.

The ministers and concubines around were also very curious, but the emperor had already gone to watch first, so they couldn't walk over and could only suppress their curiosity.

He scratched his ears and heads waiting to resolve the problem.

Yue Li was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. She picked up a knife from beside the cake, handed it to her cheap dad, and signaled him to cut it open.

The emperor saw such a strange thing at a moment, and there was a faint fragrance attracting his taste buds. After taking the knife, he didn't know where to start.

The whole cake was too delicate, and he even wanted to stay and collect it.

It was Yue Li who saw what he meant and whispered to the emperor's ear:

"Father, this is just food and it won't last long."

When the emperor heard Yue Li's explanation, he sighed. It was a pity that he could not leave a collection. He cut the first layer with one piece of cake and divided it into a piece of cake.

Yue Li quickly signaled to the little maid who was holding the plate next to her to put the cake on the plate, handed it to the emperor, and gave it to the emperor a spoon.

Now the emperor has assigned the cake. When he just cut the cake, he felt that it was a very soft thing.

He tentatively dug a piece with a spoon and sent it to his mouth. The creamy part was sweet and melted into his mouth without chewing it.

The cake is fragrant and soft, and it tastes great.

After the emperor finished his mouth, his eyes glowed. He felt that he was about to fly. He had never eaten such a delicious dessert.

After eating in one bite, the ministers and concubines next to them looked at the emperor's happy expression and swallowed a few saliva. Waiting for the emperor to describe the taste of this thing!

The emperor could no longer speak, so he only raised a thumb and praised: "Yue'er's craftsmanship is unique! I have never eaten such a delicious thing!"

Yue Li smiled with her eyebrows and eyes when she heard the emperor's praise. If she could be liked, she would live up to her hard work for so many days.

The emperor looked at the ministers around him, as if he wanted to get some reward.

He looked at the three-layer cake, waved his hand and rewarded all the two layers below, leaving himself with the most exquisite and beautiful top layer to taste carefully.

There were too many ministers and concubines coming, and each person could only get a very small piece to taste the taste.

Yue Li took two big pieces from the hand of the palace maid who was sharing the cake, and walked to Ye Qin with one hand and handed them to him.

"Taste! This princess's craftsmanship! You will definitely be amazed."

Ye Qin looked at Yue Li's Qianqian's tenderness and handed him the food he made with his own hands. He took the cake from her with satisfaction and took a bite.

After a while, Yue Li saw Ye Qin's eyes glowing. He tasted the cake in his hand carefully and soon finished eating.

He wiped his mouth with great care, "It's done well! Next time Ye's birthday, he will also have a princess' birthday cake to congratulate him."

Yue Li curled her lips. No matter how much this man sees, he wants everything! He knows how long he has worked hard, and he wants it even if he says he wants it!

"Think beautifully!"

"I want it!"

Yue Li looked helpless when she saw Ye Qin's strong look. She didn't want Ye Qin to lead her nose away.

"Then just think about it!"

Yue Li looked at Ye Qin provocatively, and she liked to see him who couldn't stand it but couldn't get rid of him.

Ye Qin frowned and looked at Yue Li with dissatisfaction. He seemed to not understand why his reasonable request was rejected.
