Chapter 31: The Birthday Banquet (1)

Lin Yuqing couldn't figure out the meaning of Concubine Yu's words, and she didn't know if she really cared about herself or threatened herself.

She smiled and said respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, the slave will definitely do her part, and she will never dare to think of things that are out of reach." ”

Lin Yuqing had been living in Zhanghua Palace before the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. There were a few times when she wanted to get out of here, even if it was to go back to the priest. She really didn't want to be too deeply involved with anyone here.

On this day, Yulan brought two little palace maids, and the palace maids held a tray in their hands, one was a gorgeous-looking dress, and the other was a few pieces of jewelry.

She didn't understand what Yulan was going to do, and asked suspiciously: "Sister Yulan, did you send this beautiful dress to the wrong place?" ”

Yulan glared at her twice, and said indifferently: "This is what Niangniang specially ordered to you, saying, since you were named by the emperor to attend the queen mother's birthday banquet, of course you can't wear palace maid clothes." This is the grace that the mother has given you. ”

Lin Yuqing didn't want any grace in her heart, but helplessly, she could only succumb to power now.

She bowed shortly, "The slave thanked the mother." ”

Tonight is the birthday banquet, and the palace maids who are going to attend the banquet with their respective masters are busy early in the morning. Help their respective masters dress up brilliantly, and can't wait to pluck the stars in the sky and decorate their masters.

And they themselves also do their best to dress themselves up.

In the afternoon, Concubine Yu cleaned up herself and asked someone to call Lin Yuqing. Lin Yuqing looked at this dress in a daze all day. She was very worried, after all, this Lin Yuqing used to be the emperor's concubine, and with such a grand birthday banquet and so many people gathered, someone would recognize her if she didn't have it. If someone really recognizes her, then she won't be able to do well in the future.

She looked around the room, her last glare fixed on the dresser. If you want people to not recognize yourself, you can only pretend to be ugly. However, you can't let the people of Zhanghua Palace find out about this matter right now.

So, she took the box of pollen rouge she left in her arms, and then changed into the clothes specially prepared for her by Concubine Yu, and went to see Concubine Yu.

When she stood in front of Concubine Yu with this makeup, Concubine Yu's eyes lit up, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

To say, Lin Yuqing's appearance can only be regarded as a small jasper, although Concubine Yu Niangniang ordered her to give her a set of clothes, but the choice was also a lake-green long coat with lotus flowers written on it, which really has nothing to do with grace and luxury.

But when these two seemingly ordinary things are combined, they are surprisingly fresh and refined.

Lin Yuqing automatically and consciously stood behind Concubine Yu, lowered his head, and ignored the needle prick in Concubine Yu's eyes.

Concubine Yu at this moment is also very helpless, but if there is a little excuse that she can prevaricate, she regrets it now and doesn't want to take Lin Yuqing away. But if she didn't bring it, she was afraid that the emperor would blame her for not taking good care of her.

Yulan has been with Concubine Yu for so long, understands her intentions, and whispers in her ear: "Niangniang, the slave maid thinks, the emperor said before that he wanted to take Shen Xiu to the queen mother's birthday banquet, did he just say it casually?" After the emperor saw Shen Xiu, he might not know who she was. ”

Concubine Yu snorted twice sullenly, and also said in a low voice: "Forget it, if you don't bring it, if the emperor asks, we won't be able to explain." It's better to take her with you, just don't let her show up in front of people. ”

The most ruthless imperial family. Concubine Yu understands this truth very well, there are so many people who want to rob the emperor that the palace is almost unable to accommodate it, and she doesn't want the people around her to intervene under her nose.

The masters are responsible for holding their heads high, and the slaves are responsible for giving the masters a strong momentum, and they also move forward one by one. It's just that when the slave saw the other master, he also bowed his head politely.

Lin Yuqing has been following behind the most lu, she doesn't care how many groups of girls she met along the way, how to compete for beauty, how to show her beauty, Lin Yuqing is only responsible for counting the floor tiles.

"Concubine Yu see the queen mother."

Concubine Yu's words attracted Lin Yuqing's attention.

This queen is different from ordinary concubines, she is the emperor's wife, and everyone else is the emperor's concubine.

Lin Yuqing saw that not far ahead, a group of people hulala surrounded a little girl. This little girl was dressed in a solemn and heavy outfit, as if she was going to crush her. said that she is a little girl, firstly, because she is tall, like a primary school student, plus her immature face, she is about ten years old.

However, this little queen has made a dignified and steady manner that is extremely inconsistent with her age. She said unhurriedly: "Concubine Yu is flat." ”

After Concubine Yu got up, she walked to the queen's side in two steps, wanting to reach out and hold the queen's arm, but because of the disparity, she still chose to stand with her head down.

"Queen Mother, since Concubine Yu has met you here, I wonder if you can walk with Niangniang?"

The queen smiled and nodded, not feeling anything wrong with what Concubine Yu said.

"Absolutely. Concubine Yu's dress today is really well-intentioned, and the emperor will be very happy when he sees it. ”

Lin Yuqing saw the words and deeds of this little queen, and really felt that this emperor was too cruel. I don't know what the reason is for Lu Dao to let such a little girl, who should enjoy the good times of her childhood, become the mother of a country. If this little queen could live to be a hundred years old, the ninety years would have been spent in this palace like a caged bird.

Lin Yuqing followed behind everyone with sympathy for the little queen and questions.

Along the way, what came into Lin Yuqing's ears was official, and there was almost no emotional exchange. Whose father has gained any treasures these days, whose brother has made great achievements, and whose sister and sister have married that powerful person. Lin Yuqing listened, and really felt like vomiting.

The queen and Concubine Yu first went to a large garden, and in that garden, dozens of low tables were placed, and some people were already made next to them. When everyone saw the queen coming, they all got up and saluted.

In the face of these people who are only older than the queen and by no means smaller than her, the little queen is familiar with it, neither humble nor arrogant, and has a self-respecting attitude.

"Let's all be flat! Everyone packs up and serves the emperor's good sisters, and there is no need to be polite. ”

Lin Yuqing sighed in love, the feudal class kills people!

The little queen exempted these people, and then she walked up to the queen mother again, bowed her head and said, "The queen mother, my daughter-in-law has come to congratulate you on her birthday." ”

Without waiting for the Queen Mother to say flat, the little queen flew to the Queen Mother's side like a bird, smiling and holding the Queen Mother's shoulders and shaking.
