Ten days later is Chu Lixue's twenty-third birthday, married Nangong Yihan over the years, they have experienced ups and downs together, but the years seem to favor Chu Lixue very much, and they have not left too many traces on her face.

On the birthday of the mother of a country, there will naturally be many people from all over the country who come to congratulate her, including officials in Dongyu, Yuexi and Nanchu.

What agarwood carved four seasons Ruyi screen, translucent thorn wood chrysanthemum light Luo Ling fan and large lotus leaf pastel peony pattern porcelain**, all are some rare good things.

Wanyue and Canxue were busy counting the congratulatory gifts given by the officials outside the Fengluan Palace, and inside the house, Chu Lixue sat in front of the bronze mirror, holding her cheek with one hand, at the age of twenty-eight, there were a few fine lines at the corners of her eyes.

"What are you looking at?" Ning Xiang saw that Chu Lixue was distracted, and then asked softly.

"I'm looking at the fine lines at the corners of my eyes, time flies so fast, I'm already twenty-three years old, Wanyue and Canxue don't have their own home, I'm very guilty."

"Niangniang, you look like a twenty-three-year-old person, in the eyes of the slave, Niangniang will always be eighteen years old." Ning Xiang said with a smile.

"You girl, you're really getting more and more flamboyant, it seems that you have learned a lot of things with the residual leaves."

"Niangniang, don't laugh at the slave, today is your birthday, the eldest prince will come too, Wanyue" Ning Xiang said with some worry.

Although, Wanyue and Chu Lifeng are affectionate and polite, but after all, Chu Lifeng is now a family person, the Wu family is not an ordinary family, and Chu Lifeng refuses to let Wanyue be wronged, and over the years, buying two people to meet is just a faint smile, Wanyue feels that this is also very embarrassing, so he also thinks that if he can not see it, he will not see it.

Hearing Ning Xiang mention the waning moon, Chu Lixue felt even more guilty in her heart, her mother said that she would not let her eldest brother marry the wanyue because of her identity, and the Wu family was right, but as a result, a pair of resentful couples were added, and so far Chu Lifeng's knees were empty, and Chu's mother sighed all day long.

Just thinking about it, Yi An held a beige gold and silver silk Luan Bird Chaofeng embroidered court dress and said with a smile: "Niangniang, your auspicious clothes have just been delivered, let the slave maid help you change it." ”

Chu Lixue turned her head and glanced at the clothes in Yi'an's hand, this dress was really exquisite, and there was a pearl inlaid on the top and tail of each phoenix, and it took a lot of effort for the embroidery girls who wanted to come to this show. Dressed in auspicious clothes, Ning Xiang carefully combed Chu Lixue's hair, and then inserted a phoenix with wings on six sides inlaid with jade inlaid with seven treasures and gold in the hair.

Just walked out of the door, under the sunlight, the pearl on the auspicious dress exuded a shining brilliance, with the seven treasures of the golden step, like a fairy in the mortal.

When I came to the Chonghua Palace, I saw that many courtiers were already sitting in the main hall and talking about wine, and just as I was about to step into the main hall, I heard Nangong's cold and warm voice behind me, "Lady, wait, take your hand for your husband and go in together." ”

Hearing this, Ning Xiang stepped aside, Nangong Yihan wore a bright yellow dragon robe, and walked into the main hall with Chu Lixue's hand, and he didn't know how many people were envious of this move.

The emperor actually took the queen's hand and walked into the hall together, such a honor, throughout the emperors of all dynasties, no one has ever done this.

"Look, this emperor is really good to the queen, and he actually held the queen's hand." An official's wife said enviously.

After finishing speaking, I didn't forget to look at my husband sitting next to me, all of them are men, why doesn't her man have such a gentle side, not to mention that he is old now, even when he was young, he never said that he would hold her hand and walk together. If you have to say that it has been held, then it is only the red silk they held together on the wedding day.

After the two of them sat down, they accepted the worship of the hundred officials, "The ministers wish the emperor a thousand generations, long live long live, long live the queen's mother, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old." ”

"All the secretaries are flat, today is the queen's birthday, I hope all the secretaries can return happy, come, let's toast to the queen together." Nangong Yihan said with a smile. Since the emperors have done this, the courtiers naturally have to follow suit.

At this moment, the daughter of one of the courtiers stood up and saluted respectfully towards Chu Lixue and said: "Queen Mother, today is your birthday, the courtiers heard that the Queen Mother's dancing posture is extremely beautiful, but it caused a sensation in Cloud City at the beginning, and even the emperor wanted to hide the Queen Mother when he saw it." ”

Hearing what the other party said, Chu Lixue hooked her lips and smiled lightly, the other party wanted to talk about what she used to do in Xin Yaxuan, when she danced on stage, it was also to keep Ning Xiang, but I didn't expect that someone would mention this matter today. It seems that this woman is also prepared.

"Miss Lu is far away in Nanchu, and she has even heard about the fact that this palace once performed in Xin Yaxuan, and it was also because a girl was unwell that day, otherwise, how could there be a chance for this palace to be on stage. For Miss Lu's false praise, this palace really doesn't dare to take it. Chu Lixue smiled lightly.

She is now the queen's mother, and she has to take care of Nangong Yihan when she does some things, and besides, this Miss Lu is the daughter of an important minister of the imperial court, and she doesn't want her to be too faceless.

"Niangniang is so modest, the courtiers heard that Niangniang has a fairy dress, which was given by a friend of Niangniang, and the courtiers have never seen a fairy dress, can you wear it to open everyone's eyes." Miss Lu smiled lightly.

Where does this Miss Lu want to see the appearance of the Liuxian dress, this Liuxian skirt is a gift sent to her by Ye Wushuang a few days ago, saying that she has something important to do and can't come to the banquet. Chu Lixue didn't even tell Nangong Yihan about this immortal skirt, she was a married woman or a mother of two children, how could she put on the clothes given by other men and appear in front of everyone?

"Miss Lu, since the fairy dress is a gift from a friend of the mother, the mother naturally wants to put it away, if you wear it casually to show people, wouldn't it live up to the wishes of the mother's friend?" Remnant Xue said coldly.

The Liuxian skirt was given by Ye Wushuang, which was only known to a few of them, how did this Miss Lu know? It's really strange, isn't there a traitor in Fengluan Palace? Thinking of this, the remnant snow and the waning moon exchanged a look with each other, and they wanted to check who was looking for the queen's bad luck today.

Hearing that Rean Xue said that the immortal skirt was given by the queen's friend, Nangong Yihan also counted it in his heart, the immortal skirt was the clothes of a fairy in the ancient books, Ye Wushuang once ordered someone to customize a set of immortal skirts according to the description in the ancient books, and this immortal skirt was naturally prepared for his beloved woman.

Although he was a little apprehensive in his heart, Chu Lixue didn't show off everywhere after all, besides, he really wanted to see what Chu Lixue would look like if she wore the Liuxian skirt.

"Yo, this girl is the big palace maid next to the queen's mother, no wonder she talks so impulsively, I heard that the palace maid next to the queen's mother has hit her mind on the uncle of the country, and she doesn't want to think about what her identity is, don't you know what is inferior and inferior with the queen?" Miss Lu said proudly.

"Xiuying, don't make a mistake, the queen is the mother of the country, you can't talk to the queen like this." Lord Lu said in a deep voice.

"Dad, my daughter is straightforward, and there is nothing malicious about it, I just want to see the queen's fairy dress, they all say that the fairy dress can only be worn by fairies, and the queen is a fairy in her daughter's heart." Lu Xiuying said lightly.

Looking at Lu Xiuying's kind and harmless appearance, Chu Lixue sneered in her heart, this woman is really not simple, a few straightforward and faint words pushed off all her responsibilities.

Just thinking about it, Nangong Yihan stood up and said with a smile: "Today's queen's birthday, I should have received a lot of gifts, my gift, the queen hasn't seen it yet, let's wait for the right opportunity to wear it, come on, bring up my gift." ”

As soon as the words fell, two eunuchs walked up carrying a sandalwood box, and then, Nangong Yihan took Chu Lixue's hand and came to the box, opened the wooden box with his own hands, and then took out the clothes inside, and unfolded it to signal Chu Lixue to put it on.

This dress is a wide-sleeved palace dress with a golden peacock feather, everyone can't help but open their mouths wide when they see this, each peacock feather has a gem falling on it, the clothes have just been worn on Chu Lixue's body, the lights around it went out, and the entire hall instantly darkened, and then look at Chu Lixue wearing a peacock feather palace costume, as if she was a peacock fairy as beautiful and unforgettable.

Lu Xiuying also grew her mouth when she saw Chu Lixue like this, she originally wanted to ridicule Chu Lixue a few words, the Liuxian dress was what she saw in Jinxiufang a few days ago, she originally wanted to spend a lot of money to buy it, and she happened to wear it to participate in today's banquet, but she didn't expect that no matter how high the price was, the proprietress of Jinxiufang just refused to sell it, and after many inquiries, she knew that this dress was specially customized by the boss of Xin Yaxuan, and the gift was also taken back by the remnant Xue next to the queen.

Lu Xiuying is also smart, after many inquiries, she learned that this Xin Yaxuan was opened by the queen mother and other men, so she deliberately made Chu Lixue ugly today.

If the dignified mother of a country wears a dress given by other men on her birthday, then she is guilty of unchastity, and she also heard that the palace maid next to the queen and her eldest brother are in love, but they were stopped by Mother Chu and ended up beating a mandarin duck. She had never seen Nangong Yihan, just hearing that the emperor was one of the three beautiful men in Beichen, she was already fascinated, and when she saw it today, her heart was like a deer crashing, thinking that if she could see it often, she would be satisfied.

"The queen's clothes are really dazzling, the emperor really has a heart, this peacock feather wants to make clothes, and it takes a lot of time." Princess Ning got up and said with a smile.

Princess Ning is a very virtuous and generous woman, and she did not separate from Nangong Yihan and Chu Lixue because of Nangong Xiu, but treated them consistently.
