After discovering that the emperor is a woman

In the end, it was an imperial decree that brought the Queen Mother out of contemplation.

This decree came urgently.

It was originally sent to the central palace first, but the queen could not be found. Because the time limit in the content is not too long, the old eunuch who delivered the decree did not dare to neglect.

Knowing that the queen was in the empress dowager's bedroom, she rushed over in a hurry.

Just now there is such a thing.

Seeing this, Liu Jiuning, who was talking vigorously to the queen mother, was slightly taken aback, and when the queen mother next to her raised her eyes and repeatedly signaled her to go to receive the order, she quickly got up and saluted.

Soon, the old eunuch finished reading the imperial decree praising the virtuous and virtuous, which lasted as long as half a stick of incense, before she took it.

It turned out that the imperial decree specified that the empress should select noble women from the capital as the special envoys of the Ministry of Rituals to receive foreign female guests. It is also necessary to be familiar with the customs of various countries.

……

Honestly, it doesn't sound like an easy job at all.

However, in view of the fact that the emperor arranged for her to have a lot of assistant nuns and some old officials who had served in the Ministry of Rites and were knowledgeable and sued her home, such an emergency training should still work.

After all, there are not many capable ladies in Beijing who don't know court etiquette. At most, they can learn the customs of various countries. In five days, a rough indoctrination is barely enough.

Liu Jiuning soon realized that it was a conspiracy by the emperor to take her away from the queen mother. Thinking of this, she quickly walked back to the queen mother and said sincerely: "Mother, I'm afraid my son will be delayed for a few days. Only then can you come over, just wait for five days, after five days, I will come again and continue to describe the future with you..."

"The queen's heart is well known, but now is the time when the emperor needs to hire people. You should be careful and don't worry. Let's put aside the arrangements for the birthday banquet."

The queen mother smiled kindly and kindly.

He even poured a glass of water for Liu Jiuning, and continued to speak: "If you are really too busy, Ai Jia remembers that the four concubines and eight concubines in the palace have their own strengths, so it is better to divide the birthday banquet, so that the queen and you Make time."

"If necessary, I will ask my sisters to help!" Liu Jiuning nodded heavily, staring at the queen mother with shining eyes, and continued: "But your mother's birthday is so important! Since you trust me so much, In order to live up to your expectations, I will definitely do all the important things myself and never lie to others! Don't worry!"

It's not just a birthday party.

It is also the key banquet for all nations to come to Korea!

She doesn't feel at ease if she let others do it!There are indeed many capable people in this palace, but no one is sure that they can make this banquet well.

Liu Jiuning was different!

Although she has no skills, she has a forward vision, and she thinks that what she makes will definitely make people's eyes shine.

The queen mother stared at the confident queen for a long time, and wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak. After a long time, she said calmly: "Okay, the queen will go to work first."

It doesn't matter if the other party really thinks so, or has other plans.

She didn't want to hear any more.

"Hey, good. I'll take my leave. Mother, after I finish my work, I will come to accompany you to drink tea and listen to music, and then talk about the various arrangements for the birthday."

Liu Jiuning reluctantly left.

Regardless of the Queen Mother waving her hands without raising her eyes, in short, she did turn around every step of the way.

The imperial decree came too timely, and it was hard to get a tie and hurt each other, but they couldn't stab each other for a few days, and it was over.

No wonder it's awkward.

Soon, Liu Jiuning returned to the bedroom. Since she took over the job of the emperor, she couldn't rest for a long time. With the help of the female officer, she hurriedly drafted an order, and then asked the older eunuchs in the palace to go to the palace gate read out.

Her purpose was very clever.

She didn't directly express that she wanted to choose a noble girl, but she said that the empress felt that the palace was deserted recently, so she specially invited female relatives of the seventh rank and above officials in the capital city who had never been married and were over ten years old to hold a lantern festival in the palace, bringing their own lanterns The kind of lantern festival.It is also said that it is better to hit the sun than to choose the sun. The moonlight is beautiful tonight.

In the past two years, the queen has tossed a lot of new gadgets in the capital, the reason is either loneliness or desertion, everyone from the princes and nobles to the common people basically knows everything.

Now come out like this.

Everyone thought it was the queen who came up with something new.

In the Gaomen courtyard, quite a few people were wondering what the empress was thinking, and they also inquired about the news from the palace, but because the place where the decree was delivered was in the empress dowager's bedroom, few people knew the truth for a while.

This hit Liu Jiuning's heart.

What I want is that no one knows what she is going to do!

After all, there are too many restrictions in this era, if it is rumored that the special envoy of the Ministry of Rituals will be selected among noble women, it is because they know that they will only receive female envoys, and there may be stubborn people who will stop them.

Given the unequal conditions of men and women today, it is necessary to use the worst malice to speculate on the thoughts of others.

The servants of the middle palace hastily arranged the location for the 'lantern display'.

According to the specifications of the concubine's play earlier, a low-end garden tour was organized, and then the maids were allowed to drive the mobile dining car.

at dusk.

Those noble ladies whose faces were so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar were brought into the brightly lit big garden.

Liu Jiuning didn't say anything. Sitting at the front, she slightly raised the crystal clear crystal cup in her hand, and smiled and said a few words of 'it's fun'.

She is not in a hurry.

Until the bright moon hangs high, the fun is about the same.

When it was time to set off the lanterns, she followed everyone to the edge of the lake to quietly appreciate the beautiful lanterns and...

A firefly that appeared inexplicably without being caught by the hidden guards.

This scene made Liu Jiuning a little guilty.

Because after being busy all day, she seemed to have directly forgotten a certain emperor who would definitely be waiting in the bedroom at this time, but she soon regained her confidence!

Isn't it all for the imperial decree of the emperor?Otherwise, would she have to use so many brains?Are you going to be so busy again?

In the empress dowager's place, one sentence after another is leisurely, you can eat and drink, and you can even listen to ditties!

Thinking of this, she snorted softly in her heart, and quickly forgot about the emperor's face.

While the noble ladies are admiring the lanterns and fireflies.

Liu Jiuning coughed twice, and waited until the surroundings became quiet before slowly starting to speak.

First, he exaggerated the dazzling brilliance of fireflies, and then it would be great if they could bring a ray of light to the world like this. Then he talked about his dream of becoming a great painter when he was young, walking around eating, drinking and drinking, and painting all the mountains and rivers in the world.

Done.

After a moment of silence, he asked softly, 'Where are the sisters and sisters here?Do you have a dream? '.

When no one dared to speak.

Liu Jiuning sighed softly, changed the subject, and began to talk without naming names, why once there was a sister who loved Yulan and dreamed of being famous for her piano, and why the little sister who was very happy with Hongmei was still looking forward to being outside the Great Wall. Galloping...

Relying on her good memory and enough gossip, she told everyone's dreams and thoughts.

It ends with 'It's a pity we've all grown up'.

Now the noble ladies can't hold back any longer.

The relationship between them and Liu Jiuning is not bad, and now they are still cared about by the other party who is the queen, and they even remember the words they said casually when they were young, so how can their hearts not be throbbing.

Even if I was just one of them, I couldn't help but get red eyes.

Thinking that the other party was really too lonely in the palace, one after another began to comfort Liu Jiuning who was now in a cold place.

at the same time.

On the opposite side of the lake full of lanterns, on the pitch-black pavilion shrouded in night, stood the emperor and the concubine De, who happened to be passing by while inspecting the palace.

"Tell me, does this scene seem familiar?" Li Nanchu said lightly, the dissatisfaction in his eyes was about to turn into flames and burn the darkness.

……

Concubine De, who hadn't had time to leave, was silent, she just noticed something unusual here, so she hurried over to investigate.

But I didn't expect to meet the king of God.

He was about to leave, but when he heard this question, he had to stop even if he wanted to leave.

After a while, she just said honestly: "I don't know each other well."

"Oh?" Li Nanchu directly shifted his gaze to Concubine De, and continued, "Where do we start?"

"It's the first time so many people put up lanterns in the palace." No matter how dull Concubine De is, she knows what the emperor is thinking, and she also knows that the empress cannot get away from the empress dowager these days. Meet a few quarters of an hour before falling asleep.

After a few minutes, the emperor will often be kicked out of the palace by the queen.

……

Ahem, it's not that she wants to know so clearly, but that this matter is not considered a secret among the hidden guards.

She didn't mean to help the queen either, after all, in her opinion, two people putting up lanterns is really different from a group of people putting up lanterns, no matter in affection or other aspects, they are different.

Hearing this, the emperor did not continue to speak, but continued to look back at the little queen who was pretending to be happy on the other side.

Concubine De couldn't figure out what the emperor meant for a while, and she didn't dare to guess either.

Since the other party was silent, they could only stand silently on the top of this uncrowded small pavilion.

The cool night wind blows, and the words of the queen on the other side, "I have admired the concubine for a long time, and Ling Yun Zhigao controls half of the imperial army as a woman" kept blowing.

What's more, such words as "charming" and so on.

Feeling the oppression constantly pouring out from the emperor.

In the depths of Xia Ye, who was strong and vigorous, she suddenly felt a little cold.
