Empress Zhao Yuan sat in the main seat, with the noble concubine Sun Xiangjun and Shufei Gu Fangfei sitting on the side, and the other concubines also sat in the main seat in groups of three or three. Looking at the girls in the hall, Zhao Yuan smiled gently, "I really didn't expect that there were so many beautiful girls with good signs here..."

The imperial concubine Sun Xiangjun said, "No, sister of the queen, when we saw these children, we thought of us, when the late emperor was still alive, and we also came to the Lishan Palace together. It has passed almost twenty years in a flash and we are all old."

Zhao Yuan said gently, "Everyone can say that he is old, sister, you can't say that your appearance has not changed at all for so many years."

The queen and the imperial concubine seemed to be in harmony, but as long as someone with a discerning eye could know that this was just a show. The two masters were talking, and Chu Ying stepped forward and said, "Mother, I heard from others that in the capital, the imperial concubine's appearance could be called the number one beauty in the capital. I wonder if it is true?"

The queen was dignified and graceful, and smiled when she heard this, "Of course it's true. My sister's appearance back then was indeed a masterpiece in the capital."

Chu Ying smiled and said, "Ah, that's a coincidence. Today, there was also the most beautiful woman in the capital."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Qingxi, who was standing in the crowd, frowned. The two princesses didn't know what was wrong, as if they were going to compete with her. They even wanted to lift her out on such occasions. Everyone looked at Shen Qingxi, and the queen and Sun Xiangjun naturally looked at Shen Qingxi.

Sun Xiangjun suddenly smiled, "Oh, this little beauty is... really a symbol!"

Chu Lan stepped forward softly and said, "Does the Imperial Concubine recognize the eldest lady of the Shen family? Speaking of which, they are still close."

Although Sun Xiangjun had never seen Shen Qingxi, he had heard of his reputation. Moreover, she had helped her sister kill Shen Qingxi. Feeling Sun Xiangjun's gaze falling from afar, Shen Qingxi lowered her eyes and saluted, "Please pay tribute to the Empress and the Imperial Concubine."

Sun Xiangjun narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Qingxi for a while, and suddenly smiled, "Ah, look at my memory. This is Prime Minister Shen's eldest daughter, right? I know the other girls in the Prime Minister's Mansion. This is the eldest lady who has just returned to the capital not long ago. I don't even recognize her. Come and come and let me take a good look."

Everyone's eyes fell on Shen Qingxi's back. Shen Qingxi slowly stepped forward and arrived in front of Sun Xiangjun. She grabbed Shen Qingxi's hand.

"Good kid, reason, you have to call me aunt. You were not in Beijing before, but I heard that you were recuperating. Now you are recovering from illness?"

Shen Qingxi lowered her eyebrows and smiled pleasingly, "Thank you for your care, it's already great."

Shen Qingxi dared not take Sun Xiangjun's words seriously, and in this situation, even if she is the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, it will not be helpful.

The princess' identity is above her, and Xu Zhiqiu is also the title of princess, so she must be low and restrained. But what makes people feel helpless is that even if she doesn't want to steal the limelight, there are always people who tell her that she can't do what she wants.

Sun Xiangjun smiled slightly and said, "That's good. The second princess just said that you are also called the No. 1 beauty in the capital?"

Shen Qingxi was about to shake her head, but Sun Xiangjun looked at the queen without waiting for her to answer, "Sister Queen, look at the appearance of this child, may he be worthy of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
