The medical concubine soars to the sky: the lord lightly pets

Chapter 242 Careful Preparation
In a blink of an eye, it is the autumnal equinox, the autumn is crisp and the sky is bright and clear.

In less than half a month, it will be the empress's birthday, and the emperor doesn't like extravagance, but this time, for the first time, he wants to hold a big event for the empress.

Splendid Palace

Nangong Die was sitting in front of the mirror, and two court ladies were dressing her up. The ivory comb combed her black hair like a waterfall, making it soft and smooth.

Nangong Die touched her jade-like face, with a sense of scrutiny, she frowned and asked Xiu'er who was standing by her side: "Xiu'er, tell me, is Bengong getting old?"

Xiu'er smiled slightly and said: "Look what your mother is talking about, you are not yet 30 years old."

"30 years old?" Nangong Die sighed softly: "Yes, I'm almost thirty. I think when I married the emperor, I was also in the age of cardamom, and more than ten years have passed in a flash."

The corners of Nangong Die's lips raised a hint of self-mockery: "You are a man of sex, and you love him when your sex fades. This sentence is indeed true."

Xiu'er's expression froze, and she cautiously persuaded: "Your Majesty, you have wronged our emperor by saying this. No one in the world knows that the emperor loves you so much. The entire harem is the place where the emperor works the most. This is our Splendid Palace, all the empresses of the palace, no one but you is the one who follows the lead."

Nangong Die softened a little when she heard Xiu'er's flattery, indeed, no matter whether the emperor really loves her or not, Zhenggong's face has always given her enough.

Seeing the Queen's brows stretched a bit, Xiu'er said while the iron was hot: "Just this time, the birthday banquet that the Emperor personally prepared for you was extraordinarily luxurious and gorgeous. I heard that the Ministry of Rites has been busy for ten days, causing a sensation in the entire government and the public. Among them, you are the only one who enjoys the honor, which empress has such a blessing like you?"

Nangong Die Yingying smiled, these words spoke to her heart, even now Concubine Shu Ning, who is currently being favored, celebrated her birthday a while ago, and the emperor just went to her palace for a symbolic dinner and stayed for a while. One night, that's all.

In contrast, the favor given to her by the emperor is indeed unique.

Nangong Die put earrings on her earlobe, and asked, "As for the emperor's birthday banquet for this palace, how did the palaces react?"

Xiu'er was very discerning and went forward to help the empress tidy up the decorations, and replied cautiously: "Of course the ladies in the palaces are very envious, but you are the empress of the main palace. In addition to feeling the emperor's deep affection for you, they also said Nothing will come out, as far as I know, all the ladies are trying their best to prepare congratulatory gifts for you."

"Really?" Nangong Die was elated when she heard it, "What about the previous dynasty, what's going on?"

Xiu'er pondered for a moment, and said: "There is no news from the previous court, but I heard that Princess Rumeng of Jing Kingdom was rehearsing dance at the beginning of the month. It seems that she wants to present a dance for you at the banquet to celebrate the new year for you."

Nangong Die smiled faintly: "She does have a heart."

Nangong Die had a sneer in her heart, she knew exactly what kind of person Princess Rumeng was, the dance that was carefully prepared in the name of celebrating her birthday was not for the purpose of shocking the world, to put it bluntly, she wanted to be herself Show off.

However, she too underestimated their Li country, which is full of talents and beauties. Do you really think that she, the "No. [-] beauty in the grassland", can also become the number one when she comes to the Central Plains?
If she wants to be famous all over the world and be the only one, she has to see if she has the ability!
Nangong Die smiled coldly, looked at the exquisite makeup in the mirror, impeccable, and then sat up with satisfaction.

"By the way, do you know what Princess Qi is up to recently?" Nangong Die just took two steps, then turned around and asked Xiu'er.

Xiu'er was taken aback for a moment, and it took a while to realize that the Queen Qi was the fourth lady of their Nangong family, Nangong Yun, and she couldn't help sweating on her forehead. The cold title of queen seemed to separate the distance between their sisters by a hundred thousand. Eight thousand miles away, where can I feel a little bit of sisterhood?
That's right, when did they, the empress, care about family affection?

Xiu'er lowered her head slightly and said: "I heard that Princess Qi is preparing for a shooting contest recently, she is very busy..."

"Juju competition?" Nangong Die interrupted Xiu'er in surprise, and then smiled speechlessly: "She has such leisurely intentions."

Nangong Die's heart suddenly became cold, and there was a trace of coldness in her eyes. It can be seen that this younger sister never took her elder sister seriously.

That being the case, why should she show mercy to her subordinates?
Hmph, just wait and see.

She wants to see how Nangong Yun can keep her husband's heart in the face of such a strong enemy as Princess Rumeng?

Nangong Villa
In Princess Rumeng's room, the sound of music coming from the room stopped Xingyun.

Sanger was drinking wine in the corner, listening to the beautiful and intoxicating music, admiring the graceful and moving dance of Princess Rumeng, but he felt an indescribable melancholy in his heart.

It's a pity, such a wonderful person, why did he marry Li Guo far away, wouldn't it be good to stay by his side?
The playing of the guqin, the stringing of the erhu, and the trembling of the gong continued. Princess Rumeng just stood on her tiptoes to complete a difficult movement. She stood there for only a moment. Sanger's eyes lit up and she was about to applaud, but she almost He twisted his ankle, leaned over, and coughed heavily while clutching his chest.

Sanger was startled suddenly, and hurried forward to support her. The music continued, but Sanger suddenly felt a sense of irritability, and shouted: "Stop it all!"

The musicians quickly stopped what they were doing and looked at them indifferently.

Princess Rumeng still kept coughing, Sanger patted her on the back lightly to let her breathe, and helped her to sit on a stool beside her.

Jin Wan'er bent down and pinched her ankle, and said happily, "Fortunately, I didn't hurt my foot, otherwise it would be bad."

Sanger squeezed her ankles with his hands, and gave her a gentle massage, while annoyed: "Why are you working so hard? Your current physical condition can't bear such high-intensity dance training. For a birthday banquet, why don't you go to school?" Empress Li who doesn't want to do it, as for you to fight so hard?"

Jin Wan'er glared at him, winked him to shut up, and said coldly to the musicians: "You guys go down first, we will practice again in half an hour."

The musicians took their leave.

Only then did Jin Wan'er say to San Ge: "You think I rehearsed the dance for the Queen of the Li Kingdom? What kind of thing is she? She has such a big face to let me, Princess Rumeng, dance for her. Don't be ridiculous."

Sanger smiled: "That's it. The dancing posture of our Princess Rumeng is unique and overwhelming. I dare not say anything else. If you dance at the queen's banquet, I can guarantee that you will be able to shock everyone. , when the time comes, everyone's eyes will definitely be on you, and what's the matter with the empress?"

Jin Wan'er smiled triumphantly, this is what she wanted to achieve.

What is a queen?Her real purpose is to compare Nangong Yun down, she wants to make Du Yunlie the only one in her eyes.
