C303 The Queen's Narration

Even from a distance, one could hear the bustling sounds of the empress's chambers.

"It's the Empress' birthday today. It's a joyous occasion and even the ministers of the imperial court would come to pay their respects. It's a pity that the Sixth Princess has to stay alone in the palace and can't personally accompany her mother on her birthday. " Prince's Wife Mo was a little sad when she heard the artist girls in the palace play "Three Plum Blossom Arts".

"Don't be rude." Just as Prince's Wife Mo finished his sentence, Prince Mu scolded him in a low voice from the side. This is the emperor's family matter, how can there be such a cloud of people as you and me? "

It was only then that Prince's Wife Mo realized that Duan Yunfei was with them, and he hurriedly bowed to Duan Yunfei and said in a low voice, "Please forgive me, Thirteenth Princess.

Duan Yunfei shook her head, and laughed at Prince's Wife Mo: "Prince's Wife Mo is a man of character, what he said is completely true, how can it be just like the clouds above."

Prince's Wife Mo was a kind and pure person, he did not understand how the palace could be so full of deceit and scheming. The words that came out of his mouth must be what he was thinking. It was much better than the people in the palace.

However, the Prince Mu was used to seeing the darkest side of things. Everything he said and did, was to protect his family from harm.

As they talked, they walked into the hall, where many palace maid s and ministers were already seated and waiting.

The empress was still in the inner hall.

Qiu Shui dressed up the empress, and finally put a colorful phoenix crown on the empress's bun. She smiled at the empress and said, "Empress, look at this beautiful hairpin. It fits perfectly in your hair bun."

The empress looked at her reflection in the mirror and was shocked.

In the past, she was also known as a beauty. But at some point, the corners of her eyes had begun to fill with fine wrinkles. Even her once black hair had grown a few strands of silver.

People don't have a hundred days of good days, flowers don't have a hundred days. In this palace city, the one that was not lacking in looks was a beautiful woman. Perhaps the Emperor had long since hated her appearance. That was how it had turned out.

"Qiushui, tell me, did I really do something wrong?" The empress smiled wryly, tears trickling from the corners of her eyes.

"After all, she is my daughter. Now that she has become like this, I don't care about her at all." "…" The empress choked with sobs as she spoke. At this moment, she must hate me to the core. She probably regrets having a mother like me. "

"How could the empress be wrong?" As the Queen of Jin Country, you must be doing all this for the Great Yue State. " Qiushui had never seen the empress lose her composure like this before, so she quickly kneeled by the side and said to the empress, "Empress, today is your birthday, so you shouldn't think too much about it. There are still hundreds of officials and nobles waiting outside to pay their respects to you, so hurry up and go out to prepare. "

Hearing Autumn Water's words, the empress lightly shook her head, revealing an expression of being at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. After so many things have happened this year, the Emperor is probably no longer willing to see me again, much less accompany me on my birthday. "

"Empress, you're overthinking things. The emperor wouldn't do that." Qiushui anxiously talked to the empress, comforting her, "You are the empress of Jin Country, why would the emperor treat you like this? You must be thinking too much. "

As Qiushui was talking to the empress, a message suddenly came from outside, saying, "The emperor has arrived."

"Empress, look. The emperor has come to see you." Qiu Shui quickly stood up and anxiously held the empress. "Today is your birthday. The emperor naturally won't forget about you. Let's hurry out and prepare to welcome the emperor."

When the empress heard the news, she quickly stood up to wipe her eyes and walk outside.

Eunuch Ming walked in with the emperor. When the empress saw him walk over, she bowed towards him and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty. Your consort had thought that Your Majesty wouldn't be coming today."

The emperor walked straight into the house and waved a hand at the empress. Where did the empress come from? It is the empress' birthday today, how could I not come? I also ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare a present for you, which will be delivered to your palace shortly. "

"Chenqie doesn't care about these gifts. As long as the emperor is always worried about chenqie, chenqie will be happy." The empress came over and personally poured a cup of tea for the emperor, smiling as she spoke to the emperor.

The emperor received it with a smile. He raised his head to look at the empress and couldn't help but frown. He reached out to touch her eyes and asked, "Why are your eyes red? But what happened? "

"Your majesty has misunderstood. When the wind just blew in, chenqie's eyes sank into the sand, which is why she looks like this." The empress quickly lowered her eyes and wiped them away with her hand, replying to the emperor's words with a smile.

Hearing that the empress wasn't willing to say much, the emperor didn't want to ask any more questions. He smiled and patted her hand before nodding his head. "Today is your birthday. You'd better not suffer any grievances."

The empress shook her head gently. This chenqie is the empress of Jin Country, what grievances would she suffer? "

The emperor took a light sip of the tea in his hand. He raised his head to look at the empress and could not help but smile. "The empress' hairpin today is really beautiful." But the creation of Ministry of Internal Affairs? "

Hearing the emperor's question, the empress was stunned.

"Your Majesty, this hairpin …" Autumn Water, who was at the side, was about to speak when she was reprimanded by the Queen.

Qiu Shui looked at the empress and left embarrassedly.

The queen was silent for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "Your majesty is right, this hairpin is indeed made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Your concubine was also looking at this hairpin and thought that the emperor would definitely like it, so she carried it on his head."

Hearing the Queen's words, the Emperor smiled in satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad at all. The Ministry of Internal Affairs's skills are indeed getting better and better. To be able to make the empress happy, naturally you deserve a reward. "

The empress didn't answer, just laughed along.

However, Yuwen Di had already forgotten that this hairpin was a gift that Yuwen Di had brought back for the empress from the Su Province three years ago when he visited the southern region. At that time, the empress had been reluctant to bring it with his. Until this day, when he wore it on his head, Yuwen Di had probably already completely forgotten about this matter.

There were too many women in the palace. He had already forgotten about the hairpin that he had bought for the empress when he visited the Southern Domain.

As the two talked, the palace maid by the side shouted, "The auspicious hour has arrived. The Emperor and Empress are seated."
