The metaphysics princess fortune-telling spirit, the abstinent and cruel king is addicted to pets

Chapter 24 024: You know you're ugly, but you still show off?

Nan Li didn't know Qing Xu's plan.

The queen's birthday banquet is approaching, and Mrs. Shen wants to take her into the palace, and take this opportunity to let everyone know that she has been found and returned. What etiquette are she learning these days.

Nanli is smart, she can tell at a glance, so she doesn't have to worry about it at all.

On the day of the birthday banquet, she was dragged up early and let the nanny and Yuan Bao dress herself up.

Just like before, she wore an embroidered gold skirt, a small golden crown, and a pair of green bracelets with excellent water head on her wrists. At this moment, she understood why those official ladies had to be helped in and out.

She has a good body, and she doesn't feel tired when she is dressed, but she is very particular about walking and sitting, otherwise she will appear too rude, which makes her unable to open her legs and hands, and it is very uncomfortable just standing.

Chu Hanlin and Shen brought Nanli into the palace alone.

The carriage stopped at the side palace gate, and after handing over the post for inspection, they could enter the palace.

Since ancient times, the imperial palace has been like a battlefield. Some palace people died quietly, and it is unknown how many grievances have gathered, so Nan Li felt a little chilly along the way.

But this is the palace, she is here to attend the birthday banquet today, this is not something she should care about.

She has survived in the last days and has already understood what power is.

Once she makes a mistake in the palace, it will affect the whole family, so she must be cautious.

Today is a banquet at Qianlong Hall.

There was still less than half an hour before the banquet, and many people had already arrived in the hall.

Chu Hanlin and his wife greeted Nan Li with their daughters one by one. Many people had a bit of disdain in their eyes, but only a few of them congratulated from the bottom of their hearts and were kind to Nan Li.

Nan Li wrote down these people, and if they need them in the future, she can give them a discount.

The banquet was about to start, and the emperor and empress also arrived, followed by Emperor Mu Wu's sister, Princess Huiping.

Everyone knelt down and saluted.

Emperor Mu Wu is the eldest son of the first emperor, and he is nearly forty years old.

Since the death of the first emperor two years ago, he turned on the lamp day and night to review memorials and discuss state affairs with important ministers, feeling a little tired.

Empress Xie was dressed up, somewhat similar to Zhenbei Hou.

But when Nanli saw her eyes, she knew that the queen was actually ill.

She insisted on attending her birthday banquet, obviously to reassure the officials.

Emperor Mu Wu smiled and asked everyone to stand up, and everyone took the opportunity to congratulate Empress Xie on her birthday, and then sat down one after another.

Just after the banquet started, the palace maids rushed to serve the dishes, and there was a message from outside: "King Yu is here!"

It was Ye Siheng, the Ninth Prince.

Joy flashed across the faces of Emperor Mu Wu and Empress Xie, and they hurriedly asked the palace staff to prepare seats.

Ever since Ye Siheng injured his leg and made it difficult for him to walk, he seldom participated in palace banquets. When he came today, Empress Xie smiled a little deeper and was in high spirits.

It was still Qingfeng who pushed Ye Siheng into the hall.

He was wearing a black brocade robe with a golden crown and jade belt. The brocade robe was inlaid with gorgeous gold trim, and the needlework was meticulous. The pattern of pythons and dragons on it was embroidered lifelike.

His handsome face and impeccable contours immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Even though he can't walk, he still has an innate dignity, which makes people feel that he is spotless and unattainable.

Ye Siheng swept his eyes, and soon found Nanli's figure.

She was slightly powdered, she was charming and charming, it took him a long time to look away.

"See Emperor Brother, Emperor Sister-in-law." Ye Siheng's voice was clear.

"Don't be too polite." Emperor Mu Wu smiled, and ordered Qing Feng to push Ye Siheng into his seat.

This is his youngest brother, but also the most powerful brother.

When Ye Siheng's feet were convenient in the past, the northern border was unbreakable.

Half a year ago, the enemy country saw that Ye Siheng's legs could not walk, so they mobilized troops to attack and wanted to avenge their shame.

But even if Ye Siheng couldn't go to the battlefield in person, he still used his soldiers like a god, making the enemy soldiers come and go!

Emperor Mu Wu was overjoyed, because Ye Siheng was already unsealable, so in the end Ye Siheng was exempted from kneeling and worshiping, and he rewarded the mansion and a lot of gold, silver and jewels.

It can be said that Ye Siheng is under one person and above ten thousand people in Mu country.

Only he can sit next to Emperor Mu Wu.

Such honors are unmatched even by the current crown prince.

After drinking for three rounds, Empress Xie remembered that Mrs. Anyang Hou brought her daughter into the palace today.

Her elder brother went to the palace every day and said that Miss Six was good-natured and capable enough to save her nephew, so she wanted to see him in person.

"I heard that Marquis Anyang's long-lost daughter has finally been found. Congratulations." Empress Xie said with a smile.

Chu Hanlin immediately got up with his wife and daughter to thank him, "With the protection of the emperor and queen, the couple can meet their daughter."

Everyone had met Nan Li just now, and seeing her well-behaved Xie En, without any stage fright or twitching, they admired her in their hearts.

Princess Huiping said: "Sure enough, she is pretty and lovely, and she looks a bit like Mrs. Hou. I just don't know if your piano skills are as good as Mrs. Hou's. Why don't you come and play a song, wish the queen's birthday, and express your heart Bar."

Shen's face showed embarrassment.

Daughter didn't like it, and she never wanted to force her to learn it.

But Princess Huiping opened her mouth. If she refused, it would be disrespectful to the queen.

A girl on the opposite side stood up, it was Lu Yanyan, the prime minister's daughter-in-law.

She said: "I heard that Miss Six grew up in the countryside before, and it hasn't been long since she came back. She probably doesn't know how to do it. Eldest princess, why don't you let the courtiers show their ugliness."

Quite a few covered their mouths and chuckled, looking at Nan Li with a little more disdain.

Princess Huiping raised her eyebrows, "Since that's the case..."

"You know you're ugly, but you still want to show off?" the cold Ye Siheng said suddenly, his eyes were piercing.

Lu Yanyan's face was stiff, and her eyes turned red instantly.

The prime minister felt sorry for his daughter and couldn't help but said: "Why is the Ninth Prince so aggressive? The little girl is just helping Miss Six."

"Whether it's to save the siege or to humiliate, this king thinks, and everyone present can hear it." Ye Siheng said.

Princess Huiping glanced at him, "Ninth Brother, Miss Lu is telling the truth, why are you so aggressive."

Lu Yanyan had admired Ye Siheng for a long time, she didn't think he was defending Miss Six, but simply wanted to embarrass Lu Yanyan.

She was staring at Nanli, her voice was a bit harsh: "Miss Six, your mother is excellent at playing the piano, you have to learn from it."

Nan Li thought to herself, it's really troublesome to be an official lady.

She didn't want to follow the crowd, to be a woman who is educated and reasonable, and makes soup for her husband, so she might as well set up a good personality for herself today.

"The Empress Dowager Chengde has good swordsmanship and saved the Emperor Taizu from danger. It can be seen that women don't have to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." Nan Li walked out slowly, "I don't know Mr. Lu, may you wish to learn a lesson with me? This is to celebrate the Queen's birthday."

Before Lu Zheng could answer, Lu Yanyan said, "With you? You look so weak, can you survive three tricks in front of my elder brother?"

Lu Zheng is capable of writing and martial arts, and he is famous in Beijing.

He has a good character, he scolded Lu Yanyan first, then got up and said: "Miss Six, there is a difference in strength between men and women, I'm afraid it's not right."
