"Greetings to the emperor", Liuli glanced at everyone and got up to salute Zhao Mingxu.

Helping people up, Zhao Mingxu walked to the table: "Is this a landlord?" ”

Everyone was surprised, they couldn't imagine that the emperor knew about the game created by the girl.

"Yes", Liuli said happily, "Is the banquet over at this time?" ”

"You're not here, and I don't have any thoughts." Zhao Mingxu did not shy away from saying.

Liuli is a joy and warmly invited: "Do you want to play two?" ”

"Are you sure you want to play with me?" Zhao Mingxu raised his eyebrows, except for losing two when he first learned, and then playing, Liuli never won against him.

"For the New Year, let's have fun together." Liuli said, glanced at the kneeling crowd, and said as if casually: "Tell them all to get up." ”

Zhao Mingxu glanced at someone who was smart, but finally did not object: "Let's all be even." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone got up one after another, but they no longer dared to gather around the table in an unruly manner, and they all retreated, each looking for something to do.

Xiao Luzi and Zhiya were guarding the door, and when there were only two people left in the room, Zhao Mingxu nodded her forehead: "How did you tell you last time?" It's still so unruly. ”

"Anyway, no one else saw it." Liuli grinned and complained, "Your silent sudden arrival scared them, and no one will play with me in the future." ”

"Are you still blaming me?" Zhao Mingxu raised his eyebrows.

"Of course", Liuli said very confidently, "I used lipstick to buy a wave of people's hearts, so they were willing to sit down and play with me." ”

"You're generous." Zhao Mingxu was a little helpless.

"Your own things, naturally, you have as much as you want." Liuli's face was full of pride, and she said, "Since you drove everyone away, then you can play with me." ”

"Two people playing?" Zhao Mingxu asked.

"Why don't you call another one?" Liuli asked tentatively, "Let Xiaoluzi come in and play together?" ”

"You tell him to try it." The man smiled.

Seeing him like this, Liuli immediately gave up this plan: "Forget it, I guess that none of them dare to come here because you are here." ”

Zhao Mingxu nodded approvingly, only to hear Liuli say again: "Why don't I teach you a new way to play, two people can play." ”

"Oh? Let's talk about it. Zhao Mingxu showed a little interest.

Liuli then began to teach Zhao Mingxu to play "pull the cart", which was the first poker game she learned when she was a child, and it was also the easiest, the two took turns to play the cards, and when they met the repeated, they put it away and continued to play, until the end who used up the cards in their hands first and who lost.

As soon as Liuli said it, Zhao Mingxu would know, and the two immediately played.

It's strange to say, this kind of play that is all based on luck, Liuli also loses, which makes her suspect that the man is cheating.

After playing until the third watch, Liuli was so sleepy that he refused to play anymore, and pulled Zhao Mingxu to go to sleep.

"You sleep, I'm here." The man coaxed her into bed and sat down on the edge of herself.

"What about you, aren't you sleepy?" Ruri asked, yawning.

"On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I have to accept the worship of hundreds of officials, and then I will go to Cishou Palace to greet the queen mother." Zhao Mingxu said.

Hearing the word queen mother, Liuli instantly became a lot more energetic, sat up and asked, "Then ...... me?"

"It's not time yet", Zhao Mingxu laughed, "I can't wait to see the Queen Mother?" ”

Liuli made a bitter face: "I'm afraid." "It's not death that's scary, it's the process of waiting for death, and Ruri feels like she's in the torment of waiting for that moment to come.

"The queen mother is kind and will not embarrass you." Touching her head, Zhao Mingxu soothed, "Go to sleep, aren't you sleepy?" ”

"Forget it, I'll talk to you again, or you'll be bored alone." Liuli simply hugged the brocade quilt and sat up, moved his body in, and left a place for Zhao Mingxu.

The man understood, so he took off his boots, went to bed and sat with Liuli, and occasionally whispered one or two chuckles with Liuli, and the years were quiet.

On the fifth watch, Xiao Luzi came in and called: "Your Majesty, it's time to leave." ”

"Shhh", Zhao Mingxu turned sideways, Liuli had already fallen asleep on his shoulder, lightly put the person flat, covered with a brocade quilt, Zhao Mingxu withdrew from the house, and explained to Zhiya at the door: "There is nothing to do today, just let her fall asleep and don't scream." ”

"Yes."

First went to the former dynasty to accept the worship of the princes and ministers, Zhao Mingxu sat on the dragon chair and was in good spirits, not at all like he hadn't slept all night.

At dawn, when the ministers returned home, Zhao Mingxu had to change into a regular dress and go to the Queen Mother to greet the New Year.

In Ning Yi's palace, Shushen woke up early in the morning, washed and put on makeup.

Because I want to say hello to the Queen Mother, today's makeup is different from yesterday, and I look much more gentle and introverted.

When it was time to put on lipstick, Shushen asked, "How did you inquire about what you said yesterday?" ”

"Back to Niangniang, Su Yue talked back early in the morning, saying that it had been found out." Xinyue held the lipstick and said cautiously.

"Say."

"The little palace maid I saw last night was indeed using lipstick", Xinyue saw Shushen's face turn blue a little, but she still stubbornly continued, "Su Yue said, up and down the side hall, all the palace maids use lipstick. ”

"What?" Sook Shen raised her voice in disbelief.

"Say yes...... It was rewarded by the little lady Song, and even the palace maid who was in charge of sprinkling and sweeping had one each, and her personal maid ......" Xinyue paused, and then said, "Three for each person." ”

"Brush!" Shushen swept the three lipsticks on the dressing table to the ground, and said hatefully, "There are only three here in this palace, and the girl next to her can have three?!" What does this take Hongu for? ”

"Mother's anger." Xinyue hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, you have to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye later, Niang Niang is the first time to meet the Queen Mother, and she must leave a good impression." ”

"Whew~" Shushen let out a long sigh of relief, trying to calm her breath.

Seeing this, Xinyue continued to persuade: "Niangniang, this palace tends to be inflammatory, and it has always been like this, Your Majesty favors the one in the side hall, and the Inner Court Division naturally sent all the good things to her." But that person is so high-profile and extravagant, and he is not a smart person, and if the mother has a heart, it is not impossible to replace him in the future. ”

"You're right", Shushen finally calmed down, "This palace endures the anger for a while, it is for the sake of the long term, continue to make up, and ask the Queen Mother for peace." ”
