After drinking Kou Shu's blood, the Queen Mother's illness improved quickly, and she regained her previous appearance in a few days, and her complexion improved a lot. Because of this, in the past few days, Kou Shu went to Ningci Palace to ask for peace, but she did not suffer too much trouble from the Queen Mother, but was kind and generous to her.

"Queen Mother, next month, your birthday banquet should almost be prepared." Kou Shu took a sip of tea and reminded.

Lan Ruoxuan saw Kou Shu speak, and immediately followed behind: "Queen Mother, Ruoxuan also wants to do my part for you." Willing to host a birthday party with my sister. "Holding a banquet is a beautiful thing, it can be done well, and it can establish its own prestige, and more importantly, if you can co-manage the six palaces with Kou Shu, it is to tell everyone that in the hearts of the emperor and the queen mother, you and Kou Shu's status is the same.

The Queen Mother glanced at Lan Ruoxuan, unexpectedly, she didn't nod in agreement, but frowned and shook her head slightly: "This matter is still handled by the queen alone." Ruoxuan, you still have to rest more. ”

When Lan Ruoxuan heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she still nodded obediently, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes.

According to the rules of the palace, the queen mother's birthday banquet should be held for three days, and the etiquette, singing and dancing, and food matching, the guests need to be determined one by one.

Ripple came in and saluted: "Qi Yu Niangniang, the third prince is here." ”

"The Third Prince?" Kou Shu frowned, Song Jinyan had four brothers, the second prince had already died of illness, and the third prince Song Yuanxu was the son of Concubine Qi when the emperor was alive and now Concubine Qi. It's just that she has little contact with him, although Concubine Qi has lived in the palace for a long time, she has already eaten fasting and chanted Buddha to see through the red dust, and she doesn't participate in such a banquet on the Queen Mother's birthday, and she can't see each other a few times a year, Kou Shu frowned, obviously not knowing what Song Yuanxu came to do with her.

Kou Shu felt strange in her heart, but her face was silent, and she walked towards the main hall through the side hall.

"Wechen has seen the queen." Song Yuanxu said that he was dressed in dark clothes, and when he saw Kou Shu, he took the lead in kneeling and kowtowing.

"Imperial brother, please get up-" Kou Shu held her hand in the air and smiled slightly, "I don't see you on ordinary days, today is really rare." ”

Song Yuanxu said: "What the queen mother said is true. In the past, it was the courtier's brother who was negligent. ”

Kou Shu smiled kindly: "Yes, you and I are a family, we still need to move around more in the future, but I have been busy with the Queen Mother's birthday banquet recently, and I can't get out of it for a while." You came today, and you don't know what you are doing. ”

A smile appeared on Song Yuanxu's face: "What the queen mother said is that I can't hide it, my brother and I came today for the birth of the queen mother." ”

A trace of confusion appeared on Kou Shu's face: "Imperial brother, please speak." ”

"A few days later on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year is the birth of the queen mother, the first few years have been scribbled perfunctory, and the annual singing and dancing are also the sounds of those grasshoppers, which makes people feel bored, this year I specially invited a few dancers from the Western Regions, just to draw a new trick." Song Yuanxu said.

Hearing this, Kou Shu nodded and said, "What the imperial brother said is reasonable, it's really time to find some new tricks." I just don't know where those dancers are now? ”

Song Yuanxu clapped his hands, Kou Shu raised his eyes, and saw several beauties from the Western Regions with high noses and green pupils gently hugging their pink veils, revealing the flat lower abdomen around their waists, and Tingting walked towards him in a curling manner. The willow-like slender waist is not full of hands, and Kou Shu is a little ashamed of herself.

"These singers have all danced extraordinarily, I asked them to choreograph a dance, and when the queen mother feasts that day, please trouble the queen mother." Song Yuanxu bent over, and the attitude in his tone was very sincere, and he was actually a ten-out filial son.

Seeing Song Yuanxu leave, Kou Shu's eyes suddenly turned cold.

His biological mother is still staying in the harem, but Song Yuanxu entered the palace without even looking at it. Such a person, if he said that he was sincere in order to surprise the Queen Mother, Kou Shu would not believe it anyway.

Kou Shu stood up and wanted to say something, but saw Song Yuanxu with a look of wanting to say something.

"What else is the emperor's brother, just say it."

Song Yuanxu nodded, tilted his head slightly, and the guards behind him understood, and stepped forward to hand over a pair of scrolls.

"This painting was lost to me by a friend not long ago, I have never been interested in these paintings and calligraphy, but I heard that the queen mother likes it very much, this time the queen mother's birthday, but also trouble the queen to bother more, this painting will talk about my heart."

Kou Shu was stunned, Kou Yunwu is a military general, Kou Shu has been in contact with knives and guns since he was a child, but he doesn't know anything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Song Yuanxu said that he likes calligraphy and painting, where did he hear it.

However, since Song Yuanxu gave it away, Kou Shu had to accept it: "In this way, I thank the emperor for his kindness." ”

"Yuan Xu, you come to the palace, and you don't say a word to me-" A voice interjected stiffly.

Kou Shu and Song Yuanxu were both stunned, they didn't expect Song Jinyan to come.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, so I'm going to stay and have a few drinks with me tonight." Glancing at Kou Shu with a slight warning, Song Jinyan smiled at Song Yuanxu.

"There are a lot of royal brothers, and the ministers and brothers are far from comparable, but there is something to do today, and we will definitely accompany you another day."

Seeing that today's goal was achieved, Song Yuanxu got up and said goodbye and went home.

Looking at Song Yuanxu's somewhat flustered back, Kou Shu couldn't help laughing.

Song Jinyan heard the sound and turned back coldly, indeed, when he received Song Yuanxu in Changle Palace, he felt very uncomfortable, but he absolutely, this is the reaction that everyone will have: "The queen also please figure out her identity, the blue sky is lonely and widowed, and people gossip." ”

Kou Shu was inexplicable, could it be that when people came, she could still drive others away, and sneered: "The emperor is too worried, I'm afraid only the emperor will think like this." ”

"Kou Shu!" Song Jinyan's tone was mixed with a hint of annoyance, and he stared at Kou Shu tightly: "Don't challenge my bottom line." ”

Kou Shu's face was expressionless, as a matter of course.

Song Jinyan's face sank, and he waved his sleeves and walked straight to the door: "Go to Yilan Palace!" Song Jinyan said to Su Peiyuan, and after thinking about it, if Xuan had just lost her child, I am afraid that going by herself would be in vain to increase the trouble: "Go to Qiongyu Pavilion." ”

Su Peiyuan was a little surprised, but he still nodded very quickly, and even shouted: "Set up the Qiongyu Pavilion!" ”

On the other side, Song Yuanxu also returned to the palace

As soon as he returned to the prince's mansion, Song Yuanxu received a message from the palace, with only eight words: "The queen saw the painting and reacted normally." ”

A relieved smile suddenly appeared on Song Yuanxu's face - it seems that the queen doesn't know anything yet, so it's easy to do.
