The woman turned around, with a few strands of white hair on her temples, looking more solemn and steady, with a soft face with a hint of perseverance.

The moment he saw Jiu Tang, his originally calm face was filled with surprise.

The girl was wearing a long white brocade dress, her manners were dignified, and her bearing was even better than that of the princess of their royal family. What's more, at the age of just getting hairpins, his cultivation has actually reached the heart-beating stage!

The Queen Mother's eyes lit up and she looked surprised.

He raised his hand slightly and waved to Jiutang.

Jiu Tang stepped forward unhurriedly and bowed to the Queen Mother in a calm and natural manner.

"I have seen the Empress Dowager."

The etiquette is thorough and you can't find anything wrong with it.

The Queen Mother looked Jiutang up and down and nodded with satisfaction.

Just now, she heard Lin Shishi say that Jiu Tang came from the lowest fifth-class country. She originally thought that people from the fifth-class small country must be incomparable to them, the proud nobles from the third-class country.

However, someone like Lin Shishi, who was praised highly by rich ladies, inevitably made her a little curious. Now that she saw him, it was indeed unusual.

If she hadn't known it in advance, look at her demeanor. Even if she said that Jiu Tang was the heir carefully cultivated by a noble family in that first-class country, she would believe it.

"The Ai family just heard that Shishi, a child, mentioned you and recognized you as her sister. Shishi said, I haven't seen such an iconic figure like you in so many years. The Ai family didn't believe it at first, but when they saw it now, it turned out to be true. Extraordinary.”

The Queen Mother took two steps forward, took Jiu Tang's hand, and patted the back of her hand with a smile.

"Your Majesty, you are so complimentary." Jiu Tang lowered his head and smiled lightly.

The Queen Mother pulled Jiutang forward and stood in front of the flower bed, looking at the petals slowly squeezed out from the huge buds.

A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and his tone was full of disbelief as he asked: "This flower...was cured by the girl?"

Jiu Tang was noncommittal: "I have done some research on this before. It is an honor for a daughter of the people to be able to help the Queen Mother."

"Okay, okay!" the Queen Mother said three good words in succession, "Here, come, take out the tourmaline and begonia hairpin that the Ai family has collected."

The maid on the side nodded respectfully, and after a while, she came back and presented a small and exquisite box.

The Queen Mother opened the box, took out the hairpin herself, and put it in Jiutang's bun.

The tourmaline embedded in the hairpin shines with dazzling luster in the sunlight. Now pinned in Jiutang's hair, it complements her long white dress and looks really good.

"This was originally a hairpin that the Ai family brought as a dowry. It would be a pity to keep it here now. It would be better to give it to the girl. This Begonia hairpin also matches the girl's name." The Queen Mother said, her tone unstoppable. Admire.

Lin Shishi on the side was a little surprised. Others may not know it, but she knew it.

She had heard her parents mention it by chance before that the Queen Mother had a tourmaline and begonia hairpin, which was an intermediate Xuan-level spiritual weapon that could increase the wearer's cultivation speed and also had the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind. It took a lot of effort to get it. Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother gave this thing to Jiu Tang as soon as they met.

But the Queen Mother actually had other considerations.

Jiu Tang's demeanor really doesn't look like someone from a small family in a fifth-class country. Maybe he has some other great status. But if it is true as Lin Shishi said, Jiu Tang was born in a fifth-class country, but to be able to achieve his current level of cultivation, he probably got some kind of opportunity, or he had a great master.

In short, this person is by no means ordinary.

She has read countless people, and she can basically tell that Jiu Tang's future achievements will definitely not be simple. Making friends with such a person would bring no harm to Eryuan Country.

Jiu Tang naturally guessed what the Queen Mother was thinking, but she naturally had no reason to refuse such an overture.

Accepted the reward from the Queen Mother. He bowed again and said politely: "The gifts given by the Queen Mother are naturally very good. I would like to thank the Queen Mother very much, the daughter of the people."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. The chrysanthemums are about to bloom." Seeing the Queen Mother's eyes falling on Jiutang, the maid next to her called softly twice.

The Queen Mother quickly looked away from Jiu Tang.

Everyone in the circle looked at the huge chrysanthemum, and the buds trembled slightly. Everyone was reluctant to blink for fear of missing this rare spectacle.

The flower bud trembled, and after a few breaths, the thin outer membrane was completely pushed open by the petals inside. Under the sunlight, it exudes a gorgeous golden color, which seems to have some colorful colors. The petals have just begun to bloom, they are delicate, weak, and slightly green. They stretch their arms curiously like a newborn baby, and the petals explore into the distance.

It is swaying under the breeze, which makes people feel happy.

Seeing the scene in front of her, the Queen Mother couldn't help but murmured: "I can't stand the passage of time as I grow old, and the chrysanthemums are blooming again under the slightest frost. Mo Yan is left in the cold in the west wind, and there are also flying little butterflies."

"Xiao Shunzi." The Queen Mother stared at the gorgeous flowers in front of her without blinking, her tone full of appreciation.

"Hey, the slave is here."

"Go and ask someone to move this chrysanthemum to the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet and place it in the center of the banquet. The Ai family wants everyone to see this rare flower species." The Queen Mother ordered.

"The banquet is about to start. You two, go with the Ai family."

The Queen Mother is in a very good mood now. She had been suffering from a broken chrysanthemum for the past two days. Now not only is the flower ready, but you can also see the whole process of its blooming with your own eyes.

How could you not be overjoyed!

Lin Shishi and Jiu Tang followed the Queen Mother and headed towards the chrysanthemum viewing banquet, accompanied by a group of eunuchs and maids.

Lin Shishi quietly held Jiu Tang's hand and asked secretly: "Sister, how did you do it? That's great."

"Isn't it because Xiaozhi broke my sister's flowers? I thought, let the moonflower bloom again, and then I researched the medicinal powder. Just today, I saw the chrysanthemums in the flower bed were broken, and then... ..."

Lin Shishi showed a surprised expression and secretly gave Jiu Tang a thumbs up: My sister is great!

Arrived at the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet.

The venue was filled with the faint scent of rouge and gouache. There are young, beautiful and well-dressed ladies from aristocratic families everywhere, as well as elegant official wives.

The Queen Mother chatted with Lin Shishi and Jiutang along the way and was particularly interested in Jiutang.

When arranging seats, she specifically ordered the palace attendants to arrange the two of them closer to her.

This chrysanthemum viewing feast is different from the past.

The Queen Mother and the Empress of this country come from the same family. After all, the Queen still calls the Queen Mother an aunt.

The second prince born by the queen is now nearly in his prime years, but he still has not decided on a concubine. Naturally, the queen is anxious because she wants to use the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet hosted by the queen mother to select a young lady from an aristocratic family. Designated as the second prince's concubine.

Most of the ladies from aristocratic families present were going to participate in the selection of concubines for the prince of the second-class country, but everyone also knew that the prince of the second-class country was notorious and could not compare to the second prince who was always gentle and gentle to others.

Because the girls from the aristocratic family paid special attention to this banquet and spent a lot of time dressing themselves up, hoping to stand out in this chrysanthemum appreciation banquet.
