invincible ugly queen

Chapter 25 Mysterious Gift (1)
Calm, surprisingly calm, before I knew it, more than half a month had passed.In the past half a month, Chu Shaoqiu didn't come to make trouble, and he didn't go to the Qianqing Palace to clean up. He ate, drank and had fun with Bao'er all day long, and he was at ease. Occasionally, he was despised by the eunuchs, and he was claiming his own. At the time of the share, none of these things mattered, so a heart that was originally uneasy was finally slowly let go.

After that "Hechi Incident", Chu Shaoqiu never looked for him.Although I don't know why the dead emperor let her go so easily, maybe it was because of other things that delayed her, maybe it was because he was so tiny that he dismissed her as a grain of sand, maybe it was because he knew that he was very fierce and didn't care about her. willing to face myself...

No matter what the reason is, as long as you don't come to trouble him, you are already grateful.During this period, Bei Yanming also came here twice, each time he would bring himself some strange things, accompany her to watch the stars and the moon, and talk all night, which also made him feel less lonely and lonely in the palace.

Today, the sky is bright and clear, and the sky is as clear as if it has been washed by water.Wan Qing moved out the imperial concubine's couch in Fengyi Hall, and sat in the yard with Bao'er basking in the sun, feeling very uncomfortable.

Wan Qing looked at the white clouds floating under the blue sky leisurely, drank a few sips of smoky green tea from time to time, chatted and laughed happily with Bao'er.

When he was enjoying himself, the wide courtyard door was opened, and Chu Shaoqiu's personal eunuch Xiao Xiangzi came in with several court ladies carrying trays, on which were various kinds of precious jewelry and clothes.

"The empress accepts the order—" Xiao Xiangzi said in a shrill voice as soon as he saw the empress, his footsteps settled.

Although reluctant, Nangong Wanqing still got up to salute, then knelt down.

"By heaven's blessing, the emperor's decree said. Let the empress and I participate in the annual Lantern Festival, which means that the whole country will celebrate together, and the whole world will celebrate together. I specially bestow one auspicious Ruyi phoenix hairpin and ten sets of phoenix costumes! This is it!"

When Xiao Xiangzi's voice settled down, he walked quickly to Nangong Wanqing's side, handed the imperial decree to Nangong Wanqing who was still kneeling, and said softly: "The Lantern Festival is an annual big day for our dynasty, I hope the empress will be well It's preparation."

After speaking, she took a meaningful look at Nangong Wanqing and left with a group of court ladies.

"What is the Lantern Festival?" Looking at the table full of clothes, jewelry, rouge and gouache, Nangong Wanqing was still puzzled like Monk Zhang Er.

Bao'er widened her eyes and explained: "This is a day for the whole country to rejoice together. This day, the emperor and the empress will go on a dragon boat ride with all the civil and military officials, go around the moat to receive the congratulations from the people, and light the Kongming lanterns prepared by the people and raise them into the sky. .”

Isn't that the modern National Day?Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?

"Then you mean that I'm going to die with the Emperor on the Lantern Festival?" Nangong Wanqing, who had reacted, was ready to ask.

"Of course!" Bao'er said without hesitation: "The Empress must dress herself up well!"

"Oh, my god—"

At night, the sky is full of stars, a few stars are flickering, and the night wind is blowing with the scent of flowers. Nangong Wanqing is lying on the bed in a big herringbone shape, constantly counting the stars in the sky.

"one two three four--"

Bei Yanming climbed up the window, his eyes reflected the brilliance of the moon, and smiled softly: "Look at you, aren't you bored again?"

"Hey——" Nangong Wanqing turned over, and sighed when she met his jade-like face.
