Mrs. Zuo said, “Don’t say that. His Royal Highness doesn’t really know Luan. This can’t be for her. I’m sure you’re all mistaken.”
Mrs. Tao was almost devoured by jealousy, but she still had to offer her congratulations.
The other ladies did the same.
After all, jealousy was part of human nature.
How lucky could Zuo Qingluan be? She was already so talented, but now, she had also earned the crown prince’s affections.
Tao Qingqing mumbled, “Why are they all saying that His Royal Highness is celebrating Miss Qingluan’s birthday? He could be celebrating Feng Wu’s.”
Mrs. Tao nudged her with her elbow and gave her a warning glance.
“The Zuo family is already one of the most influential families, and now, they’ve earned the crown prince’s support. Do you know how formidable that is? Don’t offend Zuo Qingluan!”
Just then, the fireworks went off!
The resplendent fireworks formed two words in the night sky: Happiness forever.
Wait.
Mrs. Dugu pointed at the sky and told Mrs. Zuo, “Look, those words are lingering in the sky. They’re another way of saying happy birthday, aren’t they?”
Mrs. Zuo still feigned a humble tone. “Of course not. You guys are overthinking it…”
Mrs. Dugu smiled. “The fireworks are rising from the north and west gates, and the south and east gates haven’t started yet. What do you think the remaining words will be?”
“I think it’ll be Miss Qingluan’s name,” someone said.
The celebration event today had attracted the attention of the entire imperial capital.
Of course, Emperor Wu heard about it.
Right now, he was standing on the tallest building and looking down at the entire city.
He looked silently in the direction of the west and north gates.
Gao, the eunuch, didn’t dare disturb his master. He fetched a thick cape and put it around Emperor Wu’s shoulders.
Seeing the words in the sky, Emperor Wu said, “I heard that the Zuo family is holding a big party, and everyone is there.”
Gao nodded.
Emperor Wu smirked. “They’re very popular, aren’t they?”
Gao lowered his head and didn’t reply.
“Lwas told that Jun Linyuan prepared gifts for everyone to celebrate Zuo Qingluan’s birthday?” Emperor Wu frowned.
Gao said, “That’s what the rumor has been saying…”
“He never did such a thing for Xiao Wu’s birthday. By the way, when is her birthday?”
Gao glanced at Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu smacked his head. “That’s right! Today is her birthday as well! Her mother had a difficult labor when she was born, and I sent an imperial physician to her home!
“Has Jun Linyuan lost his mind?!” Emperor Wu grew angry.. “He was so nice to Xiao Wu before, but now that Zuo Qingluan is back, he’s all over her! What a heartless boy!”
