Gillian Yi's 10th birthday was extremely lively.

There is a banquet in the palace, and officials above the third rank are eligible to attend. The ladies of the three grades or more all entered the palace for the banquet.

Empress Dowager Min sat at the top, looking at a pair of outstanding grandchildren, with happy eyebrows and a proud face.

Duchess Chengen, who was sitting on the side, opened her mouth to flatter diligently: "The eldest prince and Princess Gillian are both dragons and phoenixes among people, excellent and outstanding, no one can match. ”

Since the last time she caused trouble, Duchess Chengen has been hiding in the mansion, and this is the first time she has appeared in the palace.

It's also a shame that she is old and thick-skinned, and she just didn't see everyone's ridicule or ridicule, and she firmly held the Empress Dowager Min and refused to let go.

Empress Dowager Min no longer likes her mother's sister-in-law, and she will not lose face in public. Moreover, today is Gillian Yi's 10th birthday, which is a good day for great joy. The empress dowager Min, who was in a good mood, had long forgotten her previous unhappiness, and said with a smile: "Why didn't Da Ge'er come to the palace with you today?"

When Min Da first entered the palace, he was really not very pleasant. Over time, everyone got used to his mischievous straightforwardness. is the Empress Dowager Min, who also has a little liking for this maiden nephew.

Therefore, it was a correct decision for the Duchess Chengen to ask the Min family to enter the palace as a companion that day.

Over time, this truth makes sense everywhere.

"Da Ge'er practiced archery two days ago and injured his arm. Duchess Chengen also had a headache when she mentioned her naughty grandson: "Today he was shouting to follow up with the palace, but I stopped him." ”

Missed a good opportunity to make an appearance.

Duchess Chengen's gaze turned around on Gillian's heroic face, and she secretly made up her mind in her heart.

Childhood sweethearts, near the water.

Min Da and Gillian are the same age, and they have the opportunity to meet and get along from time to time. After a few years, maybe there will be a way to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix...... Gillian is the only daughter of Xiao Xu and Gu Wanning, and the most noble princess of Daqin. If Min Da can be Gillian's concubine, the Min family can prosper for at least a few more decades.

Duchess Chengen had wishful thinking in her heart, and looked at Gillian's gaze even more kindly, and praised with a smile: "Gillian is dressed like a girl today, and she looks more and more smart." ”

Gillian has the demeanor of a royal princess in front of people, and she smiled slightly when she heard this: "Thank you Duchess Chengen for your praise." ”

Look at this bearing, this calmness, it is clearly the same as Queen Gu!

Duchess Chengen usually complains a lot about Gu Wanning, but at this time, she feels that if she can have such a granddaughter-in-law, the heirs born in the future will never have the weakness and mediocrity of the Min family......

Duchess Cheng'en accidentally thought far away, and a smile of excessive eagerness appeared on her face.

Gillian swept her gaze and quickly retracted her gaze.

As the princess of the heavenly family, as the favorite daughter of the emperor, she has always been proud and confident, and even disdains the careful thinking of Duchess Chengen.

……

"Roche has seen the queen mother. ”

Luo Zhixuan, who has not appeared for a long time, was also called to the palace for a banquet this time.

The Fu family has been filial piety for less than three years, and it stands to reason that Luo Zhixuan is not qualified to enter the palace. However, the queen mother personally issued a decree to summon her, and the Fu family only had gratitude to Dade, and no one dared to stop her.

On their fingers, the two haven't seen each other for nearly two years.

Luo Zhixuan's liveliness and humor when she was a girl have been restrained, and she looks very stable at this time.

"Excuse me. Gu Wanning glanced at Luo Zhixuan carefully, frowned slightly, and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, you have lost a lot of weight." ”

Thin, but also emaciated.

This haggard is not revealed, but hidden under the eyes that are no longer enthusiastic and smiling.

Luo Zhixuan showed a slightly helpless smile and replied softly: "The whole house is guarding filial piety. The elders all insisted on being vegetarian, so naturally we had to follow suit. ”

Eating a vegetarian all day long, not getting meaty, and it's impossible not to lose weight.

Moreover, everyone in the house is in a gloomy mood, and their faces are calm every day, which is very depressing. Fu Zhuo entered the palace as an errand, and Sister Hui entered the palace to study, leaving her to work hard in the inner house. It's impossible not to be emaciated!

The Jiaofang Hall was full of people, and it was inconvenient to speak.

Gu Guanning didn't have time to ask in detail, and after a few words of gossip, he ordered someone to give him a seat.

Luo Zhixuan's position is not eye-catching, and Sister Hui obediently follows her.

However, the ladies sitting around her, no one dared to underestimate her, and they nodded with a smile.

Who doesn't know that Luo Zhixuan is a close friend of Queen Gu's boudoir? Who doesn't know that Sister Hui is Princess Gillian's companion and is deeply loved by Queen Gu?

Although the Fu family is in decline, Fu Zhuo's family of three has won the favor of the saint.

……

The palace feast soon began.

The ladies of the rank of the Decree automatically sat together spontaneously, and Luo Zhixuan sat down with Cui Junyao, Gu Guanhua, Yao Ruozhu and others.

Gu Guanhua did not return to his previous plumpness, and his cheeks were thinner.

Luo Zhixuan laughed in a low voice: "Prince Pingxi Bo has made great contributions at the border pass this time, and he will return to Beijing soon. Hurry up and take advantage of these days to eat more and let the flesh on your face grow back. Otherwise, when the husband and wife reunite, your husband will somehow feel distressed. ”

opened his mouth, and the clever and witty Luo Zhixuan came back.

Gu Guanhua blushed slightly, and sighed with a smile: "I'm not afraid of your jokes." For more than a year, I haven't eaten well and slept soundly. It wasn't until the big victory at the border pass that my heart was completely let go. ”

Her husband was fighting at the border, and she couldn't sleep and was worried day and night.

Cui Junyao felt the same way, and interjected with a smile: "I also look forward to the army returning to Beijing as soon as possible." ”

Even Gu Jinxing has to go to the border again, at least the husband and wife have a time to reunite.

Yao Ruozhu has always been a man of few words, and at this time he listened to a few people with a smile and did not speak.

Luo Zhixuan hesitated slightly, leaned over and asked in a low voice.

Yao Ruozhu's face did not change color, and nodded slightly.

Luo Zhixuan frowned.

Few people know about Luo Ting's summoning to the palace. Luo Zhixuan didn't hear Fu Zhuo mention it until yesterday. I can't help but be worried and a little worried.

With Gu Wanning's temperament, he would never summon Luo Ting into the palace for no reason.

What the hell could it be?

Looking at Yao Ruozhu's appearance, he obviously didn't know the inside story.

Luo Zhixuan had the heart to ask, but because there were many people at this time, it was inconvenient to say more, so she had to put down this doubt.

After the palace banquet, the noble father-in-law, the former head of the palace, came with the holy decree and read out the will of the Son of Heaven in public.

Most of the ladies present had already heard about it from their husbands and sons, and at this time they showed appropriate surprise and joy, and stood up one by one to congratulate them.

Sweet and well-behaved, such as the Duchess of Chengen, said a basket of good and obedient words.

Empress Dowager Min was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth and said with a smile: "This is indeed a happy event. Ah Yi came over and thanked the big guys. ”

Ah Yi responded with a smile, got up and came over, and bowed his hand to everyone: "Thank you, ladies." ”
