Chapter 187: I'm afraid there's a good show to watch
"Why did the Queen Mother suddenly call me into the palace for a banquet?" Min Jue's eyes were full of puzzlement, in the past, every time she personally sent black hair water and whitening water into the palace to the Queen Mother, and she would personally use them for the Queen Mother, but now it is the New Year, and it is inconvenient for her to enter the palace.
But if it's really useless, the Queen Mother is afraid that she will be summoned a long time ago, and she won't wait until tomorrow, after all, the Queen Mother will attend the palace banquet tomorrow, so she naturally cares about her image, if her skin is wrinkled and her white hair is full of sideburns, it's not good.
"Don't worry, it shouldn't be a bad thing." Jue Luo said with a smile.
"But I don't want to go to the palace for a banquet." Min Jue said helplessly.
The vast majority of the people who will attend the palace banquet tomorrow are "adults", she went very boring, even if there are several noble daughters will be invited into the palace, but they may not necessarily know, even if they do, Min Jue will not get too close to others.
In a word, it's boring.
But no matter what, the Queen Mother has made an order, she has to go if she doesn't want to, the only thing that makes Min Jue feel a little comforted in her heart is that she may be able to find a chance to meet the fourth elder brother.
Before dawn on the second day, Min Jue got up and began to dress up, she wore a Hunan concubine-colored robe today, embroidered with flying colorful butterflies, the neckline and cuffs and other inlaid wind hair is white and soft, plus there is cotton inside, so it is particularly warm to wear, and it looks good enough, not too out of place when participating in the palace banquet, but also festive enough.
For the New Year, of course, you can't wear those plain colors, and the Queen Mother is already an old person, she actually doesn't like others to wear too plain.
Today's harem, since the death of Empress Xiaoyi Tong Jia's immortal, it is the Wen Guifei Niu Hulu who is in charge of the harem.
Today, there are three queens canonized on the Holy One, the Empress Hesheri of Xiaocheng, the Niu Hulu clan of Empress Xiaozhao, and the Empress Tong Jia of Xiaoyi.
Concubine Wen is the sister-in-law of the emperor's second queen, Niu Hulu, and as soon as she entered the palace, she was crowned a concubine and gave birth to ten elder brothers? Jin Feng is a noble concubine.
Although she is now in charge of the harem, she is not a queen after all, so she ...... When something really big happens, it is naturally the Queen Mother who makes the decision.
Of course, Min Jue has to dress up according to the Queen Mother's preferences.
The bun is still the kind that is combed on weekdays, but it is slightly higher, and it does not exceed the rules, but it is better to wear a gorgeous hairpin.
She is wearing a red gold butterfly hairpin today, several kinds of gem inlays, gorgeous and generous, Yan Shuangfei's step swaying, the tassel embellished is a mung bean-sized gold bead strung together, you can see it when you get closer, it is particularly delicate and good-looking.
On her wrist, she wore the pile of jade bracelets that the fourth elder brother gave her.
The bracelet is small, her wrists are thin, just right, and her wrists are more slender and white like clotted fat when she wears them.
Now she has a beauty value of 87, and the gorgeous dress that was previously known as the first beauty in Manmeng is only 80, in order not to make enemies for herself and attract unnecessary gossip, Min Jue picked up the box of special cosmetics and dressed herself carefully.
Naturally, he was ugly.
"How? How many points is it worth now? Min asked the little turtle in her heart.
"81, no more." The little turtle smiled.
"Okay, it's on par with Huashang." Min Jue nodded with satisfaction, and then took the gospel to meet his own mother.
Feyangu didn't have to enter the palace today, but he had to personally escort his wife and daughter into the palace, of course...... He could only be sent to the gate of the palace.
After getting into the carriage, Min Jue subconsciously leaned on Jue Luo's shoulder, she and the little turtle counted the silver together yesterday, and slept a little late, so this will still be a little sleepy.
In the sea of Min Jue's consciousness, the little turtle stretched his waist, and wanted to complain about his master, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it.
It has been a turtle for a long time, and even its courage has become smaller.
But count the silver pot, it doesn't want to carry it.
With its ability, if you scan it casually, you can count the bunch of silver tickets clearly, but the owner prefers to count them one by one, and shouts for it.
"Tortoiseshell, why do I think you're not as good-looking as you usually are?" Jue Luo reached out and held his daughter's face and asked with some surprise.
"You don't have to hide it on weekdays, it's just what it is, and if you want to enter the palace today, you can't become the target of public criticism, so I deliberately dressed myself up." Minyu yawned.
Jue Luo was happy when he heard this.
Everyone else is trying to dress themselves up beautifully, but her daughter actually makes herself ugly.
But...... It's still beautiful, but it's not as beautiful as usual.
In fact, Jue Luo secretly prayed in his heart before, hoping that his daughter would not look better as she grew up, and it was already perfect.
If you look better, it will become a disaster, even if you marry the fourth elder brother and become the daughter-in-law of the royal family, you will be in trouble.
Although she is not a talented woman, she has read a lot of books since she was a child, how many of those stunning beauties in history can have a good death?
It's good that my daughter knows how to hide her beauty!
She wasn't so worried.
When their mother and daughter arrived at Ningshou Palace, it was neither early nor late, and half of the foreign women and those nobles who had been blessed to enter the palace arrived, as for the ladies in the palace?
Naturally, he accompanied the Queen Mother to appear in the finale.
Under the guidance of the palace maids, Min Ji and Jue Luo sat in their places.
It belongs to the higher position in the first echelon, and it has moved two rows forward compared with last year.
First, Fei Yanggu was promoted to the commander of the infantry battalion from Yipin, and he was in power, and secondly, Min Jue was the fourth elder brother who had already been decided, and this position naturally had to be moved forward.
The people who went to the banquet came in one after another, and Min Jue was a little sad to find that Hesheri Huashang and her family mother Zhao Jia were actually sitting on their left side, and on the right, it was Dong E's Yuan Xiang and her family's Eniang Suo Xue Luo.
Several ladies greeted each other, but Min Jue and Hua Sheng did not speak, you ignore me, I ignore you, and treat each other as air.
And then...... Min Jue met the future crown princess Guerjia, who entered the palace alone for a banquet.
Her grandmother and mother have passed away, so there are no elders to accompany her into the palace.
But her identity is there, so she will definitely be invited to such an occasion.
"Hmph......." Hua Shang, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but snort coldly when she saw the Guerjia clan coming in and sitting directly in front of her.
Hearing this, Min Jue glanced at them with interest.
Tut-tut...... The eldest daughter-in-law and the younger daughter-in-law of the prince have not yet passed the door, I am afraid that there will be a good show to watch.
It is still unknown when the Guerjia clan will marry the crown prince, after all...... Who knows if she will be unlucky again, and go to a close relative after the expiration of her filial piety?
But now it seems unlikely, because almost all those who can die are dead.
As for Huashang, her wedding date with the crown prince is scheduled for May next year.
