The faint moonlight shines through the gauze tent, and the faces of the people on the bed are not very clear, but they look very quiet, like a thousand-year-old pond deep in the forest.

The man's footsteps fell silently to the ground, approaching like a shadow, and the silver mask on his face glowed coldly in the moonlight.

Reaching out to open the veil, the fair face was as delicate as fine porcelain in the moonlight, and the long eyelashes covered the eyelids, like two butterflies resting peacefully.

The body under the thin quilt rises and falls slightly with the body, and the room is filled with the smell of tranquility.

Suddenly, the cold light flashed, and he subconsciously reached out to block and retreated, but the back of his hand hurt slightly, and the skin was scratched.

When I raised my eyes again, I saw the girl who was lying down sitting on the edge of the bed at this time, looking at herself coldly with a pair of bright eyes, and the dagger in her hand exuded a slight chill in the moonlight.

Duanmu Qing has never slept deeply, and after being reborn, he was even more vigilant and abnormal, and slightly felt a black shadow cast on his eyes, and immediately woke up, but he didn't open his eyes.

Feel the other party's breathing, stabilize yourself, and wait until the right time to make a move, but I don't want to let him dodge, it seems that he is a master.

"Who are you?"

Then the moonlight, Duanmu Qing could only see that he was a man, with a mask on his face, and he couldn't see his appearance.

Feeling his cold gaze falling on him, his heart tightened, thinking that he would make any moves, who knows, the next moment, he disappeared into the window.

For such a person, Duanmu Qing couldn't think of who it would be after searching for memories, and she couldn't find anyone who could match the aura just now.

Since he can't figure out what he can't figure out, he doesn't think about it anymore, and it's right to rest well, so Duanmu Qing went to sleep again.

Standing on the opposite roof, I clearly saw the white figure inside falling again, and there was a smile of unknown meaning on the face under the mask, which was a bit interesting, and I thought it would attract a burst of noise with bright lights.

The queen's birthday banquet was coming soon, and the clothes that Li Ningshuang ordered people to make were all ready, with lotus-colored long skirts and shoulders of the same color, and crescent-white tops.

Beauty is beauty, look at Duanmu purple, lilac twelve long skirts, dark purple embroidered hosta flower top, a jasper belt around the waist, slender waist bundle, long body jade.

The cloud-like hair is curled into a complex flying fairy moon bun, thin pearls walk among them, and two purple hostas are just right.

Duanmu Qing asked herself, this set of outfits must not have such an effect on her.

Seeing them come out, Duanmu Zi smiled brightly, "My sister looks so refreshing today, but it seems that my sister is a vulgar thing." ”

Duanmuqing ignored her, and helped Cai Wei's hand to the carriage.

Very tired of her style, Li immediately stepped into the carriage and squeezed Duanmuqing aside.

I didn't bother to bother with her, so I gave Cai Wei a few words and got into the carriage.

Because Qiu Tian has always called herself sick, where is Li Ningshuang's mother's identity, so if there is any banquet in Beijing on weekdays, she will come forward, and the queen is her eldest sister, so she gave her a post, and she naturally accompanied her into the palace at this time.

The queen's birthday is naturally very lively, the emperor has already ordered it to go down, and the ministers will be feasted at night, but during the day, they will be accompanied by the ladies and ladies to enjoy the flowers in the imperial garden.

In the summer, the imperial garden is lush and green, but it is green, fat, red and thin, and there is less taste of flower appreciation, but the lotus flowers in the imperial pond are blooming very well, overlapping and overlapping.

Sitting in the gazebo and looking at the past, it is elegant with clear water and blue sky.

In addition to the wives, the concubines with status in the palace naturally also have to attend, and the one sitting in the deputy seat should be the only concubine - Concubine Tong.

I saw her wearing a purple palace dress, holding her fallen horse bun obliquely, with a slender figure, delicate facial features, and slightly frowning eyebrows, revealing an unconcealable weakness.

The fourth prince was sent to Dongli to be a proton, although she is the head of the concubines, she is still unsatisfactory in the end!

Concubine Shu was wearing a plain snow silk cloud-shaped thousand-water dress, the headdress on her head was all pink and white opal, and there were small crystal earrings hanging from her ears, looking delicate and lovely, and she couldn't see that there was a child as big as the fifth prince at all.

At this time, I talked and laughed with the ladies of the Hussar General's Mansion. It is said that this concubine has a sacred heart in the harem, so it seems that it is also very reasonable.

Concubine De sat on the seat dignifiedly, wearing a royal blue palace dress on her body to look very dignified, the expression on her face was lukewarm, and she looked very low-key, she was the biological mother of the Nine Emperor Prince Zhao Yuhong.

Duanmu Zhu is also the aunt and grandmother of the Duanmu family, and now Yi Zhaoyi is dressed very decently today, not ostentatious, nor low-key, she has always been calm, like a concubine, and has won the sacred heart.

Seeing the three Duanmu Qing, he couldn't hide the smile on his face, but after all, it was the queen's birthday, so he talked casually to his mother's family for a while, and then returned to his seat.

The queen wore a bright red palace dress, and the thumb-sized Dongzhu wore a necklace with sixteen strands of red silk thread, and wrapped it around the neck in three layers, which looked extremely luxurious.

A red gold nine-tailed phoenix hairpin on the dignified throwing bun, with a small tourmaline bead in the phoenix's mouth, but the flow rate of the fall is an incomparably precious shark bead.

On the feet are shoes made of Hangzhou thick material, embroidered with intricate peony flowers, the lace is hooked with gold thread, but the stamens are topaz the size of rice grains, with the skirt swaying gently, the style comes.

The queen looks to be in her thirties, but she is very well maintained, her skin is firm and flawless, and there is no fine line at the corner of her eyes.

The ladies knelt on the ground and cried out.

Supported by the maid and sitting on it, the queen spoke: "Although today is the birthday of the palace, but at this time, there are female dependents, and there are no courtiers, so you don't have to be formal." ”

"My sister doesn't look very good today, but because of the presiding over the Hou Mansion?"

When everyone heard this, their faces were shocked, but they didn't expect that when they sat down, the queen's first sentence was to Li Ningshuang, and she called her sister in front of all the women, which shows the status of the Li family of the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the position of the maid of the Yongding Marquis Mansion, and they all guessed in their hearts why this Li family was still an aunt in the Yongding Marquis Mansion since she was the queen's sister.

I heard rumors outside that Mrs. Yongding Houfu had been sick for many years, and the woman with bright eyes behind her was the eldest lady.

Although he has the identity of a concubine, it is a pity that everything is pressed by a concubine, and the women present are all from the main room except for the Li family, so they can't help but stand on Duanmuqing's side psychologically.

Looking at the past again, I couldn't help comparing Duanmu Qing and Duanmu Zi, although my sister's ornaments are not ordinary, but compared to my sister, she is more elegant and less luxurious, and her eyes are more or less sympathetic.

But today's attitude of the queen mother is here, who dares to show some clues on her face.

Most of the birthday banquets are similar, and the queen's is no different, enjoying the flowers, listening to the play, watching the performances, eating and drinking, even if it is over, it is even more boring to follow the rules in the palace.

"The palace thinks that the birthday of the year is these things, there is excitement, it is inevitably boring, today I look at the daughters on the table all have a temperament like an orchid, jade and flowers, presumably the mind must be exquisite, but I want to see the birthday gifts prepared by the daughters for the palace."

As he spoke, he turned his head to Duanmu Zhu and said, "Today, the two young ladies of the Yongding Marquis Mansion are generally bright and moving, and this birthday gift must also be clever." ”

Duanmu Zhu is naturally inevitably polite and modest.

The birthday gifts were originally given early, and the palace people of Kunning Palace registered and made a book, and at this time, as soon as the queen mother said so, several aunts commanded the various birthday gifts to be moved.

"It's still interesting here, the queen! The scenery is picturesque, and the beauty is like poetry! "It's lively here, but a few princes over there walked over with the emperor, before anyone arrived, the sound came first, and the hearty voice made people can't hear that the emperor is nearly fifty years.

A dry woman was busy saluting.

In addition to the 235895 princes, the queen's nephew Li Yanyu, the hussar general's youngest son Qi Ming and Duanmuhe.

Li District is only seventeen years old, and he is already a four-grade servant, Qi Ming is sixteen, the official is the captain of the palace, plus Duanmuhe, they are all young and promising young talents.

The seats in the gazebo were rearranged, and some young ladies had already blushed and whispered.

The atmosphere that had not yet been lively suddenly took on a hint of comparison.

Duanmu Qing picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Duanmu Zi with an excited face and the smugness in Li's eyes, and then looked at the queen, his expression was calm, but the light in his eyes was sheng, it seemed that the emperor had already planned to come.

"The emperor is really a good eye, the concubines are saying that they want to enjoy the congratulatory gifts carefully prepared by the ladies and ladies for the concubines with all the ladies and ladies!" Sitting next to the emperor, the queen smiled.

"Oh?" Obviously, the emperor was very interested, and he also smiled, nodded and said, "Then let's take a look!" ”

After all, it is the queen's birthday, a rare opportunity, and the nobles naturally racked their brains to find a way to do it.

First of all, there is a picturesque painting of Pang Xinru, the granddaughter of Master Pang, looking at the painting in the hand of the palace maid, Duanmu Qing's eyes tightened, and the bottom of his eyes instantly froze.

Li's lips couldn't help but rise, but there was a look of appreciation on his face, as if his attention was on such a painting.

"Miss Pang's painting skills are really the first in Tianjing, with the phoenix dance for nine days, the colors are bright, delicate, vivid and expressive, it is really a masterpiece, and the family style of Master Pang can be seen." Before the queen could speak, the emperor had already exclaimed.

"The phoenix is flying, the feathers are shining, the courtiers wish the emperor a thousand years of life, and the queen will live a long life." Pang Xinru had a decent smile on her face and bowed down.

When the queen heard this, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of smiles, "The phoenix is flying, and the feathers are feathers" is a congratulatory message to the husband and wife!

If this Pang Xin is not mistaken, he should have already made a marriage, and he will marry far away to Yunnan this year, yes, despite this, the noble girl sitting there did not have any big reaction, there was no loss of interests, and no matter how much the limelight came out, it would have no impact on him.

Wen Taifu's granddaughter is a hand-copied Buddhist scripture, with a hairpin in one hand, which is breathtaking.

The eldest lady of the Zhenguo Mansion is a phoenix-tailed piano, which is made of the piano that the queen accidentally destroyed when she was young, which moved the queen.

……

When it was Duanmu Qing's turn to give a birthday gift, there was obvious schadenfreude in Duanmu Zi and Li's eyes, and Cai Wei, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but purse her lips.
