Chapter 5 005.The Queen Mother's Grace

Walking through a vermilion lacquer gate, the eunuch shouted loudly: "The daughter of the general of Zhenguo has arrivedβ€”"

"The daughter of the general of Zhenguo has arrivedβ€”"

Every time a door was passed, a eunuch shouted loudly, one after another, one after another, the echo here did not fall, and that side sounded again, Chu Wanwan stepped into the depths of the palace step by step, the luxurious formal clothes on her body lined her childish face with a sense of seriousness and solemnity, and the long skirt dragged behind her, walking step by step extremely steadily.

The guests in the Weiyang Palace were like clouds, and the voices were boiling, and when they heard the arrival of the county lord of Wanwan, they froze for a moment, and everyone looked out of the door and waited quietly. Even the Queen Mother, who was sitting on the phoenix seat, looked at the pillar of the courtyard carved with dragons and phoenixes, and a loving smile hung on her face.

Finally, a touch of tender yellow entered the main hall, and the clouds in the bun shook with a crisp sound, and the rumored lord of the bent county who was unbridled and evil was already standing at the door.

She pursed her lips slightly, raised her chin and saluted slightly: "I wish the Queen Mother a thousand years old!" ”

Is this the Lord of the Crooked County who doesn't know etiquette? She had never saluted before, but whenever she attended the banquet, she had to sit at the top, but today she saluted like a lady, no, everyone didn't have this innate nobility.

"Get up! Bend the girl, come and sit next to me. The Queen Mother spoke first, her tone was doting, and she stretched out her well-maintained hand to beckon her to sit in a high position, as if this kind of thing had become commonplace.

It stands to reason that the position next to the Queen Mother is something that a high-ranking person can sit on, Chu Wanwan bit his fingers and thought about it, she went over like this...... Wouldn't it be inappropriate? But after thinking about it, the original county lord must not be entangled in the matter of position, and she may have to sit on the dragon chair.

So she was not hypocritical, lifted her skirt and slowly walked to the queen mother's side, sat down slowly, the scene of the entire Weiyang Palace hall was unobstructed, some new ministers were shocked by this scene, there were some small and fragmented discussions in the hall, but most of the old ministers were not surprised, but with a sigh in their eyes.

It is rumored that the Queen Mother dotes on the county lord, and it is true!

"Let's have a seat." The queen mother gave an order, everyone retracted their eyes and put away the discussion, the music started, and the singers and dancers began to perform.

Chu Wanwan was curious, and he watched it with relish, and just as Chu Wanwan saw that his eyes were about to fly out, the Queen Mother suddenly approached and said to her excitedly with a trembling voice.

"Girl, I heard that you laughed, mourning family...... The mourners were delighted. ”

"Huh?" Chu Wanwan turned his head, facing the sparkling eyes of the Queen Mother, there were one or two fine lines at the corners of the eyes of the Queen Mother, who was older, because of good maintenance, it was impossible to see if he didn't look closely, but at this time, because of the suppression of emotions, his eyes were red.

This news is too well-informed, right, but after a while, the Queen Mother knows it? The county lord smiled, is it so unusual? Do you want to have a press conference or something? But Chu Wanwan looked at the obvious concern in the Queen Mother's eyes, and lowered her head in shame, she was the dove occupying the magpie's nest to occupy this body, and the old man's favored Wanwan County Lord had already returned to the Nine Heavens.

"Crooked girl, you're finally ...... Have you come out of your pain? The mourning family thinks that you may not be able to get out of it for the rest of your life and forget it. The Queen Mother hid her face and wiped the corners of her eyes, and the Queen Mother took Chu Wan's crooked hand and clasped it with both hands, "Others say that you are rude and willful, only the mourning family knows, only the mourning family knows that you are bitter in your heart, why don't you tell the mourning family?" ”。

Chu Wanwan could only smirk: "Queen Mother...... I'm fine, I'm not fine right now. ”

The Queen Mother fell into sorrow: "Girl, the Mourning family also knows that they can't protect you for a lifetime, but you are relieved, the Mourning family will ride the crane west one day, and they will also arrange it for you, even the emperor, and they all want to spoil you as their own sister." ”

Chu Wanwan was a little sad, the Queen Mother treated her so well, she choked up and said, "Queen Mother, I understand!" In the future, Wanwan will no longer be ignorant. ”

"You!" The Queen Mother touched Chu Wanwan's hairy head, "As long as you often come to the palace to accompany the mourning family, the mourning family will definitely live a long life." ”

"Who said it, is Chitose good!" Chu Wanwan is cute and coquettish, and it is really good to have someone who loves him so much. I was suddenly curious about what the emperor looked like, and why the queen mother couldn't attend the birthday banquet.

Just thinking about it, the eunuch outside the door suddenly came to report, saying that the emperor's birthday gift had arrived, the queen mother smiled, and ordered someone to open it to look at it, the eunuch brought in a large object covered with a cloth, and when the curtain was lifted, it turned out to be a coral screen, coral is not available in Lanling country, and it will only be available in countries near the sea, sometimes some traders will bring coral to Lanling country to sell, but it is not so big and complete.

The Queen Mother smiled and nodded: "The city has a heart, and when I go to the border to inspect it, I don't forget to prepare gifts for the mourning family, this coral screen is exquisite, and the mourning family likes it very much, so carry it to the mourning family's dormitory." ”

It turned out that the emperor went to the border, no wonder the second seat of this birthday banquet was for himself. Chu bent her head and patted her head, she forgot to prepare a gift, she didn't know if the original county lord had prepared it, and asked Xiaoxiao in a low voice: "Where is my gift?" ”

The little mysterious smile, everything was ready, Chu Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered the gift to be delivered, which turned out to be an egg-sized night pearl.

Chu Wanwan had an idea, and it was not special to have a night pearl, but it could be said that way...... So Chu Wanwan stood up and saluted the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, Wanwan also prepared a gift for the Queen Mother." ”

"Then bring it up and see."

As soon as Chu Wanwan's gift was opened, it was not distinctive at first glance, because this hall was brightly lit, and the light of the night pearl was completely covered, but the queen mother still nodded happily: "This night pearl is the size of an egg, it is really rare, and the mourning family also likes it." ”

said that he was about to order someone to put him in the dormitory, but Chu Wanwan stopped him: "Queen Mother, I want to extinguish the candle flame with this gift, and then show it to the Queen Mother." ”

The Queen Mother nodded, looked at Chu Wanwan curiously, and ordered someone to extinguish most of the candles, and then the light of the night pearl was hazy and emanated, like a bright moon, quiet and far-reaching, and everyone was shocked by this night pearl.

At this time, Chu Wanwan spoke up again: "Queen Mother, Wanwan knows that your eyes sometimes can't see clearly, so this night pearl can be placed in the dormitory, and it can be lit without candles at night, plus that coral screen, it must be wonderful." ”

The Queen Mother was very moved, and inlaid the night pearl on the coral, and the coral and the pearl on the screen complemented each other, which was beautiful.

The guests all whispered when they saw this scene, how could this county lord be so smart, he had always been like a spoiled fool before, but he didn't expect this kind of wit.

After the gifts were delivered, everyone was seated.

Chu Wanwan didn't know how to drink, but he didn't expect the wine in the cup to have a different flavor, and he couldn't help but drink a few glasses for a while, and the Queen Mother noticed that Chu Wanwan was drunk, so she ordered: "The county lord is greedy for a cup today, so let's stay in the palace, and I can accompany the mourning family." So he ordered several palace maids to support Chu Wanwan to rest, and Xiaoxiao also followed Chu Wanwan and left the table early.

The drunk Chu Wanwan felt light and fluttering, but there was still a trace of consciousness, the night breeze mixed with cold wind blew on his face, and the comfortable Chu Wanwan snorted, and the whole person was hung on the two slaves.
