Shi Baoning pulled Shi Qingxue to sit down in the house, her little face was blushing, as if she was a little embarrassed, and only whispered after a while: "Isn't it just the Qixi Qiqiao Festival in a few days?" ”

Shi Qingxue nodded, her face was even more puzzled, where is it worth Shi Baoning's bothering about a begging festival that will be held every year?

"In previous years, I was not in good health, and my grandmother basically didn't allow me to participate in any banquets, but this year my health is much better, and the queen mother's flower note was also sent, so I want to ......" Shi Baoning hesitated, and the last words were embarrassed to say.

After all, it is impossible for anyone to believe that as the eldest daughter of Shi Guogong, Shi Baoning has never participated in any banquets, and she still needs to do her homework for participating in banquets.

It's a pity that Shi Baoning really asked the wrong person about this matter.

Although Shi Qingxue understood, she was still confused, and asked rhetorically: "It's just a begging banquet, it's just some eating, drinking, and chatting, and there's nothing to pay special attention to!" ”

In Qingxue's opinion, the identity of the eldest daughter of Shi Guogong is noble enough, and there is no need to deliberately please anyone at the banquet, just maintain the usual etiquette, and these Shi Baoning can do more perfectly than her without being reminded.

Shi Baoning sighed lightly, and sighed secretly in her heart: The sixth sister has a temperament, never being a little low, although there is no problem, she can't learn it anyway, even if her identity is theoretically more noble than the sixth sister, she will still worry about whether she has done something bad and collided with the nobles, or whether the etiquette of the relationship is enough or not?

It's just that I can't talk to Shi Qingxue about these worries, so Shi Baoning had to change the way of asking: "I haven't been out for a long time, I don't know much about the current fashionable dress, I don't know what to wear to the begging banquet, and what is the temperament of the nobles in the palace, what do you need to pay attention to when talking, can you tell me everything?" ”

"This is simple, I'll wait for Xia Mang to ask the grandmother of the palace Shangfu Bureau, to see what clothes the nobles who participated this year are wearing, I remember that the queen mother likes dark purple and gold patterns, the queen mother likes red, and Liu Guifei often wears Zhao pink clothes, as long as it avoids colliding with the colors of these people's clothing.

As for temperament, when the Queen Mother is old, she likes to watch the juniors make trouble, and as long as your sister is not out of the circle, she will like you; The queen is a strict ......"

Shi Qingxue often walks around the palace, and she knows the preferences of the palace mothers very well.

At the end, she concluded: "Sister, don't worry. Your identity is there, as long as there is no big mistake, no one will pick on you, and it's too late for them to slap you! If you are too cautious, you will make others think that you are weak and deceitful. ”

"I know that's the case, but I'm still a little worried. I heard that this time the Queen Mother invited all the famous daughters of the family in Kyoto, and I was worried that something would not do well and lose the face of our family. ”

Shi Qingxue smiled and took her sister's hand, reassuring her again, patting her chest and reassuring: "Don't worry, it's rare that you can participate in the palace banquet now that you are in good health." You just have to let go of your mood and play, I'll take care of anything for you! ”

"You girl, you don't blush when you praise Haikou! Aren't you afraid that I will really rely on you when the time comes? Shi Baoning was persuaded like this, and his mood relaxed, and he laughed back.

Shi Qingxue didn't blush, held her chin high, and said: "I didn't boast, the Queen Mother loves me the most, and Yuzhen is on top of my head for me, so I don't have anything to worry about." ”

Although Shi Baoning felt that his sister was too proud, he couldn't say anything to refute, he only lightly tapped Qingxue's forehead, and his heart was happy and envious, "Then my sister will follow you, don't dislike it!" ”

"No, you don't know how much I wish you were participating! Otherwise, the Shi family always participates with Sanniang, which is really boring! Shi Qingxue pursed her lips and complained in a low voice.

Shi Baoning couldn't help frowning, and persuaded softly: "I know that you and Sanniang don't have a good relationship, but she is still your sister in the end, grandmother has always looked forward to our sisters' friendship and harmony, you don't worry too much about her in everything, if you let grandma be so old and still worry about your affairs." ”

Shi Qingxue Nunu mouthed, a little disdainful of Shi Baoning's words, but thinking of the eldest sister's respect for Mo Shujun, she didn't say it in the end, and only changed the topic: "Qixi beggar, there are inevitably many activities at the palace banquet, all of which are boring things for women, my sister will do it if she wants to, and push it if she doesn't want to, don't take it too seriously." ”

Qingxue is a descendant of military generals, deeply influenced by her grandfather and father, plus she is an extrovert, likes to ride horses and shoot arrows, and is good at dancing guns and swords, but she doesn't care much about her daughter's gadgets.

Shi Baoning also knew this, only bowed slightly, but said in his heart: You have the ability to act willfully, but I have to abide by the etiquette and law in everything, which is always a little different.

Shi Qingxue and Shi Baoning are really a pair of sisters, they both sincerely care about each other and want to think about each other, but the differences in their personalities cannot be ignored.

At this time, neither of them realized how much of a crisis this would bring to their relationship in the future.

——

The Qixi Festival is a big day for Mozambican women.

On this day, the moon is begging, you can ask for marriage, and there are also begging wisdom, and it is a good day for friends in the boudoir to communicate and talk.

At this time of year, the Queen Mother will set up a palace banquet and invite all the noble ladies of the cardamom family to enter the palace to participate in the celebration and beg together.

Shi Qingxue has been attending for two years, and in her memory, nothing major happened at this year's begging banquet.

It's just that as soon as she came to the banquet at the same time, the third princess Mo Yuzhen ran over excitedly, "Qingxue, it's been so long, why don't you come to see me?" ”

Qingxue then remembered that since she was reborn, she has been worried about Shi Baoning's illness, and she has never had a good chat with Mo Yuzhen, and she can't help but feel a little guilty, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." ”

"I don't care about this, you just forgot about me for others!" Mo Yuzhen didn't know what Shi Qingxue was busy with these days, but she didn't want the other party to ignore her for others, and her own sister couldn't do it.

crossed his waist and said domineeringly: "Unless, you accompany me all day today, I will forgive you!" ”

Seeing Mo Yuzhen's arrogant expression, Shi Qingxue couldn't understand: her friend was inviting her into the palace as a companion in disguise!

If it was in the past, Shi Qingxue was naturally willing, but now Shi Baoning was looking at her with expectant eyes, and it was not good to disobey Mo Yuzhen if she didn't want her to go, and she didn't feel at ease to leave Shi Baoning here alone, so she had to choose a middle method: "The queen mother has never refused you, or you come and sit with us!" ”

Mo Yuzhen turned his head to look at Shi Baoning, who was sitting on the side, with a slightly critical expression, and only after a while did he reluctantly agree: "Okay, but you have to go to my palace to sleep tonight." ”

Princess Yuzhen has always done her own thing, and at this time she was willing to retreat and accommodate, Shi Qingxue couldn't help but be moved, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay, I'll accompany you." ”

After thinking for a while, she suddenly laughed and teased: "I think you want to be lazy again!" ”

Usually, as long as Shi Qingxue enters the palace, Mo Yuzhen has the perfect reason not to go to the diligent school to listen to the class!

"What the hell!" Mo Yuzhen's white little face was red, and she wanted to pass the test in disguise, but she was already seen through by Shi Qingxue, who knew her.

Suddenly embarrassed, he put on the posture of a princess, and said angrily: "Hmph! Shi Qingxue, you are so bold, even this princess dares to laugh, don't you want to die? ”

Shi Qingxue has long been accustomed to Mo Yuzhen saying that she can't put on an oppressive temperament, and she doesn't accept this stubble at all, anyway, her princess won't really treat her well. However, Shi Baojin, the third mother of the Shi family, heard this, and immediately reprimanded seriously: "Sixth sister, what do you look like?" Have you forgotten the etiquette that Mr. Weekdays taught you?

The three princesses kindly invited, not only did you appreciate it, but also arbitrarily arranged the princess, you know that you will have a good relationship with the three princesses, and those who don't know are that we have no tutor at home! ”

Qingxue and Mo Yuzhen were stunned for a moment when they said this tirade, and when they looked at each other, they both saw a smile in each other's eyes.

Mo Yuzhen sneered even more unceremoniously, and directly reprimanded: "This palace chats with Qingxue, do you have a part to speak?" Since you know that Hongu is joking with Qingxue, then you have to shut your mouth for Hongu! ”

Shi Baojin originally wanted to curry favor in front of Mo Yuzhen, but he didn't expect to be taught a lesson by the other party, and he suddenly blushed, and he was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a floor to get into.

Fortunately, at this time, the Queen Mother entered the scene, and everyone was quiet for the time being.

The Empress Dowager Ling Ruiyin is sixty-five years old this year, the biological mother of the current emperor, and her status is outstanding, but she rarely asks about the juniors, so she has won the real respect of the juniors.

The Queen Mother's kind eyes looked around the entire banquet, and finally fell on Shi Qingxue, who was wearing a goose yellow cardigan skirt, and couldn't help but smile, "Xiao Xue'er is coming to the mourning family, the mourning family hasn't seen you for a long time!" ”

Shi Qingxue walked in front of the Queen Mother, made a blessing ceremony in a regular manner, and said hello sweetly: "Qingxue has seen the Queen Mother, I haven't seen you for many days, Qingxue wants to kill you!" But you have a ruddy complexion and full of energy, and you definitely don't think too much about Xiao Xue'er! ”

In the entire Mozambican country, probably only Shi Qingxue dared to be so big and small, but it made the Queen Mother feel comfortable.

"You girl, it's really ......" The Queen Mother also laughed when she heard Shi Qingxue's words.

Obviously, they all praised her for her good looks, but Qingxue's sentence especially made her feel comfortable, so she pinched the other party's nose and scolded with a smile: "I haven't seen her for a few days, even our little Xue'er has learned to flamboyant!" ”

Shi Qingxue obediently asked the Queen Mother to hold on to the key point, and was about to have a trick with the Queen Mother as usual, but suddenly saw her own sister sitting alone in the crowd, as if she was isolated.

Her bright eyes rolled, and she deliberately pouted and whispered, "What's the matter, what I said is the truth, but the Queen Mother just doesn't believe me." I know, you must have seen Xiao Xue'er's sister coming, and you didn't like Xiao Xue'er anymore! ”

When the other nobles saw Shi Qingxue currying favor in front of the Queen Mother, they were jealous and disdainful in their hearts, but it was useless.

Anyway, as long as Qingxue is there sometimes, the Queen Mother usually can't see them.

didn't expect Shi Qingxue to dare to compete for Shi Baoning's favor in front of the Queen Mother openly this time, and did so outrageously, would the Queen Mother do what she wanted?
