The queen mother's birthday, civil and military officials and their relatives are going to enter the palace to celebrate her birthday. In previous years, because Murong Mingxi was a transparent person, even if she was missing, she would not be noticed, so she did not participate in the Queen Mother's birthday banquet.

However, this year is different, the Queen Mother's edict has already come to the Prime Minister's Mansion early this morning, so Murong Mingxi will have to go to tomorrow's birthday banquet.

As soon as Peony heard that the young lady was going to enter the palace tomorrow to attend the birthday banquet, the whole person became anxious and irritable, and excitedly pulled Murong Mingxi to choose the clothes to wear to attend the birthday banquet tomorrow. "Miss, what do you think of this? The goose yellow looks elegant and delicate. ”

Murong Mingxi didn't care about what clothes to wear, anyway, she had already thought about it, and she would find a corner to stay in the back when she arrived at the banquet tomorrow. However, she was very excited to see Peony, so she had to cooperate with her.

"Well, this one does. I wore it once last time, and it looked good. ”

Peony was originally quite optimistic about this piece, but when she heard the young lady say that this piece had been worn, she immediately rejected it. "No, don't choose the clothes that Miss is wearing. This one, the slave maid remembers that the lady of this dress has not yet worn it. The red color shows the grace and luxury of the young lady. ”

Mu Zi saw that Peony and Murong Mingxi were choosing clothes, and they also came over to join in the fun. She shook her head after seeing the dress chosen by Peony, reached out and took a plain white shirt and said to Murong Mingxi, "Miss, let's choose this one." The red color is too eye-catching, and the white color is more suitable for the lady. ”

Peony already had an opinion on Muzi, but now when she saw that Xiao Muzi actually said that the dress she chose was not good, her face immediately sank. "Muzi, what do you mean by this, I'm choosing a dress for tomorrow's birthday banquet for my young lady, what are you here to make a fuss?"

Xiao Muzi really didn't understand why Peony had such a big opinion on her, didn't she just stunned her once, as for holding grudges until now? "Sister Peony, you misunderstood, I just think white is more suitable for Miss, and I don't mean to target you."

Murong Mingxi saw that the two were about to quarrel, and said to the two of them: "Okay, I know that you are both for my good." Everyone is a sister under the same roof, and harmony is the most important. I think I'll choose this one, Muzi is right, the red color is too eye-catching.

The Queen Mother's birthday banquet will never be as easy as it seems, and for the sake of safety, it is better to choose a plain dress to be safe. Muzi, you are more clever, you will follow me into the palace for tomorrow's birthday banquet, and you and Feng Mo will guard the mansion with peony. ”

After listening to Murong Mingxi's words, Peony also knew that she was not thinking about it. The young lady is still in a dangerous situation now, and the red dress is indeed too eye-catching. Hearing that in the end, Miss actually chose to let Muzi accompany Miss into the palace, and Peony became anxious again.

"Miss, it's better for the slave to accompany you into the palace. The slave maid has been serving the young lady since she was a child, and the young lady's preference for the slave maid is more familiar than that of Muzi. ”

Xiao Muzi didn't know who sent it, how could Peony agree to let her accompany the young lady into the palace alone.

"No, you can't enter the palace this time with peony." Xu is tone was a little stern, and Murong Mingxi saw Peony's injured expression, and patiently explained to her

"I'm doing this for your own good, Peony. The palace is not what you imagined, and the slightest mistake will kill you. And why the Queen Mother chose this time to send the purpose of Yi's decree is not clear, in this regard, Muzi should be more careful, she is used to seeing these tricks.

So it's safer for you to stay in the house, I don't let you enter the palace because I don't want you to have a little accident, do you understand? ”

Peony thought that the young lady no longer trusted her, and felt very sad. After listening to Murong Mingxi's explanation, she felt better in her heart. She knew that she was usually stupid, and Muzi could only help Miss by following Miss into the palace.

"Yes, Miss. The slave understood. Muzi, you must ensure that the young lady comes back safely, otherwise I will not let you go even if I am a ghost. ”

"Don't worry, Peony. Even if I fight for my life, I won't let Miss lose a single hair. Xiao Muzi assured Peony very solemnly.

"You'd better do what you say, and I'll trust you for now."

After Feng Mo received the news that Murong Mingxi was going to enter the palace, he looked preoccupied. She went back to her room, took a small box from the dark compartment and opened it. What was placed inside was half a phoenix-shaped jade pendant, and Feng Mo picked up this half of a phoenix-shaped jade pendant and muttered to himself

"The day is still here."

In the courtyard of the third aunt, Murong Mingyue was happily looking at the clothes that the third aunt had prepared for her. "Mother, where did you get this material, why have you never mentioned it to me."

"You don't care where you come from, in short, you have to know that your mother is all for your good. My mother has been cultivating you for so long, just waiting for this moment tomorrow. You can't let your mother down. ”

Although the clothes prepared by the third aunt for Murong Mingyue are not as good as Murong Mingxi, they are also very expensive Yunjin. The third aunt has already inquired that the queen mother's birthday banquet will choose concubines for each prince. As long as Murong Mingyue can be selected as the princess by the Queen Mother, even her face will shine.

"Mother, don't worry, the daughter you just said is in your heart. I've been practicing hard these days, and this is the day I've been waiting for. I will definitely not lose to Murong Mingxue this time. ”

Murong Mingyue hasn't been going out recently, just to practice the piano. In previous years, at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, she was overwhelmed by Murong Mingxue, and this time she was confident that she would not lose to her again.

Hearing Murong Mingyue's words, the third aunt nodded with great satisfaction, and waited for the arrival of the next day's birthday banquet.

"Miss, put this on. The Mulan hosta just matches the lady's dress, and the pearl earrings make the lady's face brighter and more moving."

Before entering the palace, Peony was already busy dressing up Murong Mingxi. I have to say that Peony still knows her preferences very well, and she is very satisfied with the jewelry she has selected.

At this point, Xiao Muzi didn't fight with the peony, but after Murong Mingxi was dressed up, Muzi walked in with a jade bracelet in his hand. "Miss, put this on again."

The jade bracelet in Muzi's hand knew at a glance that it was very valuable, and Peony stepped forward from behind to look at Xiao Muzi and asked, "Muzi, how can you have such a precious jade bracelet?" ”

Peony's words were exactly what Murong Mingxi wanted to ask, Xiao Muzi's eyes were a little dodgy after hearing this, and she replied with a lie: "This was given by someone else, and the slave maid felt that this jade bracelet was just worn by Miss Yu and took it out." I hope that the young lady will not waste the slave's heart. "In fact, this bracelet was sent by the dark one just now, and it was given to Miss Murong by the master.

Murong Mingxi stared at Xiao Muzi for a while before taking it and putting it on his wrist and saying, "Well, I like this bracelet very much, thank you for me for the person who gave the jade bracelet." ”

After hearing Murong Mingxi say that he liked it, Xiao Muzi's eyes lit up, and he quietly gave a look to the secret. After receiving the news, the dark one, who was still waiting in secret, quietly left.

Feng Mo only walked in at this time, she looked at Murong Mingxi after dressing up, her eyes were a little confused.

"What are you thinking?" Murong Mingxi felt that Feng Mo's gaze seemed to be looking at others through her, in fact, since yesterday, she had faintly felt that Feng Mo's expression was not quite right.

After hearing Murong Mingxi's words, Feng Mo came back to his senses. She said with a kind smile: "The little lady looks more and more like the young lady, and for a moment the slave maid thought that the young lady was back." These days, the slave maid always dreams of the young lady, and the young lady still maintains the same as before, while the slave and the maid are already old. ”

Seeing Feng Mo mention Shangguan Wan'er, Murong Mingxi stepped forward to hold her hand and said, "Feng Mo is thinking too much, or do you want to open some." ”

"Well, the slave knows. By the way, this jade pendant was left by the young lady to the little lady, and the little lady will take it and wear it on her body. Feng Mo took out the phoenix-shaped jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it to Murong Mingxi's hand.

Murong Mingxi took the jade pendant and looked at it for a while, and then hung it on his waist sleeve. I don't know why, she always feels that this jade pendant is hiding something.
