All the internal and external wives looked nervously and expectantly in the direction of the queen's phoenix seat, leaving two positions in the middle, which were Emperor Delong and Empress Wen.

On both sides of them, Concubine De, Concubine Lian and a few high-ranking concubines were already seated, Princess Yongjia, Princess Fuping, and some noble royal family members and nobles sat in a row in front of the concubines.

The hour is not early, and Emperor Delong and Empress Wen are delayed.

The people in the hall whispered, and although they didn't dare to talk loudly, they kept making eye contact with various ideas.

The position of the crown princess is under the queen, she is the stepwife of the prince, in her twenties, dignified and elegant, with bright eyes and bright teeth, Ying Ying smiled, and talked to Princess Yongjia.

The crown princess usually did not attend the banquets of the noble ministers' families, and the wives could only see her at the banquets in the palace or at the family banquets of the royal family.

At this time, many people frequently looked at the crown princess.

Empress Wen had to formally face the female dependents, which illustrated Emperor Delong's attitude. Then, the future world belongs to the prince, and the crown princess is the future queen.

Therefore, the attitude of the ladies has changed dramatically.

Concubine De and Concubine Lian's faces were not so natural, their smiles were stiff, and they talked much less.

At this time, Concubine Lian was very annoyed. If Xu had not fallen ill, he could have attended the banquet. But Zhou Qin told her the ins and outs of the matter, and Concubine Lian was so angry that she swept down the tea set on the table.

It's really not enough to succeed and more to lose!

Concubine De was also very annoyed.

After returning from Fenglai Palace that day, she told Princess Fuping about Empress Wen, and Princess Fuping laughed at that time, and said: "Mother, it seems that this time my father will not hesitate anymore." ”

Concubine De didn't understand Princess Fuping's words too much, but the meaning of Princess Fuping's words was obvious, Princess Fuping was actually happy to see the crown prince ascend the throne!

If it weren't for Concubine De as her mother and Fuping as her daughter, Concubine De would almost have wondered if she and Fuping were biological mothers and daughters.

Li'er is Fuping's sibling brother, how can she stand on the prince's side?!

However, Princess Fuping persuaded her: "Mother, no matter what we do, my father will let the prince and brother inherit the throne." Moreover, the prince's brother is charitable and benevolent, and he will be a good emperor. As long as we follow our father's wishes, we will still be prosperous and rich in the future, what's wrong with that?"

Concubine De was so angry that she almost slapped Princess Fuping in the face.

Because of Princess Fuping's obstruction, Concubine De was stillborn in many things and failed to succeed. After only three things, Concubine De's feelings for Princess Fuping gradually became a little delicate.

Princess Fuping didn't fail to see the changes in Concubine De, but she still tried every means to obstruct Concubine De, and Zhou Li was very surprised by her sister's actions.

Zhou Li and Zhou Qin are different.

Zhou Li has more city government and success, in the past few years, everything the errands assigned by Emperor Delong have been done extremely brilliantly, Emperor Delong admires him, the staff have placed serious expectations on him, and the uncles of his grandfather's family have also tried their best to support him.

He is confident, high-spirited and ambitious.

It can be said that everything went well, but I hit a nail in my sister's place.

However, Zhou Li and Concubine De are different. A younger sister is just a younger sister after all, especially a royal sister, even if it is a mother's sibling, there may be an insurmountable estrangement because of something. If she marries in the future, her heart will be towards someone else. Therefore, Zhou Li just touched his sister's head and smiled like he did with Princess Fuping when he was a child.

Princess Fuping looked at Zhou Li with complicated eyes, but no one paid attention to her abnormality.

At this moment, Zhou Li was not present, Concubine De looked at Princess Fuping's side face, but there was a nameless fire in her heart.

Princess Fuping smiled at Concubine De as if she knew that her mother was looking at her.

Qin Shuying has always been very concerned about Princess Fuping, and at this time, she happened to look at Princess Fuping and found that her smile was filled with indescribable sadness and depression.

Qin Shuying lowered her head and drank tea, her thoughts turning.

Princess Fuping's friendliness to herself, and the fact that she may be reborn like herself, Qin Shuying has always been in her heart.

She didn't know what kind of life Princess Fuping had lived in her previous life, and why she was so depressed and silent. According to the few words that Princess Fuping summoned her before the ice sculpture banquet, Qin Shuying speculated that she must have experienced a very painful emotional experience in her previous life.

But......

"The emperor has arrived!

A sharp voice interrupted Qin Shuying's thoughts.

All the ladies looked nervously at the side of the gate, at the woman in the bright crimson and yellow dress beside Emperor Delong.

She smiled lightly, and although her appearance was not stunning, her skin was like jade, and she was unconventional. Under the costume, there is an amazing momentum.

Her skin and figure are excellently maintained, and she looks like she is almost thirty years old.

"Flat. ”

As the steady and majestic voice of Emperor Delong sounded, the ladies revived, and the eyes of the ladies focused on Empress Wen.

Needless to say, everyone's eyes were full of amazement.

At the same time, everyone will more or less remember the rumor in their hearts, and then, many people will look at the daughters of the Wen family, Mrs. Wen and Miss Wen, intentionally or unintentionally.

Mrs. Wen has passed away, and Mrs. Wen has been gone for many years.

The Wen family's current head of the family is the elder brother of Empress Wen's in-laws, Master Wen. Master Wen's position is not high, just a fourth-grade person, and he has already become a master. His son is not bad, in his early forties, and he is a third-grade civil official.

Therefore, the Wen family can enter the palace is Mrs. Wen and her granddaughter, seven-year-old Miss Wen.

Although Mrs. Wen's eyes also looked at Queen Wen, she lowered her eyebrows after looking at it, and outsiders couldn't see what Mrs. Wen's emotions were.

Qin Shuying's gaze changed slightly.

Empress Wen's face was a little different from the last time she saw her.

This time, she wore makeup, her face was more delicate, the corners of her eyes were traced, and the whole person looked more majestic. The eyebrows also obviously increased the concentration, adding a bit of atmosphere to the whole person.

Flaming red lips, with a phoenix crown and a dress, looks charming and elegant and domineering.

Concubine De and Concubine Lian were also surprised, because there was a comparison of not applying powder last time, and today's Empress Wen looks very different from last time.

They are both women and know the difference between wearing and not wearing makeup. Before makeup, you can be ugly, and after makeup, you can be a peerless beauty. Before makeup, people may be old and yellow, but after makeup, they can be young.

Empress Wen is different from other people's makeup.

Everyone else is making herself younger and younger, but Queen Wen has made herself much more mature and stable than last time.

In this way, people who have never seen her real face only think that she is very well maintained, and people who are almost sixty years old still look like a woman in their thirties, but they don't know that her real face looks only seventeen or eighteen years old.

Concubine De and Concubine Lian couldn't help but glance at each other.
