1007 The Beginning of the Palace Banquet 1
It is naturally not easy to invite the Empress Dowager out of the palace, but after thinking about it, the eldest princess thought that this method was very good, so she thanked Shen Qingxi again and again. When Shen Qingxi was about to say goodbye, she personally sent her out of the mansion.
Shen Qingxi returned to the prime minister's mansion, but felt a little uneasy because of what the eldest princess said.
In her previous life, her master died for her. She wanted to repay her kindness in this life, but she didn't expect that her master had no intention of staying in the capital for a long time. So how could she not be suspicious to repay her kindness?
Shen Qingxi thought for a while but failed, so she had to order people to prepare a gift to the Princess's Mansion. On the contrary, she only said that she was thanking Shen Qingyun for helping him treat her illness.
After giving the gift, Shen Qingxi's thoughts fell on the empress's birthday. The empress's birthday was a banquet for ministers and destiny. In the prime minister's house, only Shen Qingxi and Shen Qingyun could enter the palace. After Shen Qingyun was injured, she was unwilling to go out, but now the scars on her face healed a lot, so she also wanted to go out to see it. The empress's birthday once a year, and this year's birthday is even more full. If she wants to do a big job, Shen Qingyun was even more unwilling to give up.
Five days before the birthday party, Shen Qingyun ordered people to prepare for the gorgeous clothes she wanted to wear in the palace. She was sick for a few days and there was no new clothes. Seeing that she had regained her spirits, the old lady gave her several soft smoke sticks. Of course, Shen Qingxi also had them.
Everything was ready, and it was the day of the birthday. Early in the morning, the old lady and Shen Qingxi got up early, and the same was true for Shen Qingyun. Shen Qingxi and Shen Qingyun had no grades, but the old lady was a first-class imperial decree. After breakfast, she had to give her big makeup. Her clothes were more luxurious than Shen Qingxi and Shen Qingyun. When everything was ready, the three of them got on the carriage entering the palace. Shen Huai was also going to enter the palace, but not with them. The carriage moved from the front of the Prime Minister's Mansion and headed straight towards the palace gate.
After walking for half an hour, the carriage was approaching the palace gate. Today, the Queen's banquet was a grand ceremony. Along the way, you could see the carriages of various powerful officials from all walks of life. When they arrived at the palace gate, the carriages filled the square outside the city tower. Shen Qingxi and Shen Qingyun got off the carriage first and helped the old lady out. As soon as the three of them stood still, Shen Qingxi saw Sun Shuning.
Sun Shuning also saw her at the first time. She came over to ask the old lady for peace, and then laughed in a low voice, "Today, everyone else is dressed up, but you are not conspicuous at all."
Shen Qingyun prepared many clothes and jewelry for today, but Shen Qingxi only wore a sky-blue palace skirt today, and she did not wear any makeup on her face, and even on her hair bun, she didn't add a few pieces of jewelry, which made her look plain and different from others.
Shen Qingxi covered her lips and smiled, "Today is the Queen's birthday. What do I want to do conspicuously? You are also so simple and tight."
Since Shen Qingxi and Sun Shuning had a good relationship in their previous lives, they naturally had the same taste and concepts. Although Sun Shuning was talking about Shen Qingxi, she herself was quite elegant. The two looked at each other and smiled, so there was no need to say anything more. As she was talking, Sun Shuning turned around and saw Zhao Zilan getting off the carriage of Shangshu Mansion.
Sun Shuning smiled and said, "It seems that some people want to be the most beautiful girl today."
