The emperor came a little later, and as soon as he entered the door, he knelt down and made a big salute, "My son and minister pay respects to the queen mother, and wish the queen mother good health and a long life."

Concubine Qin Gui stood beside the Empress Dowager, wearing a string of eye-catching red coral beads on her hand, took the tea from the little maid and served it graciously, "Your Majesty, please use tea."

The fragrance of the beads wafted over his nostrils, the emperor's gaze sank, he glanced at Qin Guifei's white jade wrist and asked, "Your bracelet looks pretty, where did it come from?"

Qin Guipin smiled and said: "If you return to the emperor, the queen mother will reward it. It is said that it is made of red coral beads filled with spices. It is both beautiful and fragrant."

When the time comes, let the ancestors and the queen mother move there first. Be sure to prepare everything." more complete."

The queen quickly responded, "I've already asked someone to clean it. Don't worry, your majesty, it will be all right when the time comes."

Xiao Jun nodded slightly, glanced at the concubines as if inadvertently, and saw that Qingchen was tilting her head to listen to what Ye Guirong was saying. When she was among the concubines, her eyes were always scattered, she could see everything From the expression on the person's face, one could see every decoration in the hall, but one could not see the emperor's gaze looking at her.When there are many people, her attention will never be on him, but no matter where she is or how far away from him, he can see her at a glance.

The little maids began to serve refreshments one after another, and the rose cake made by Qingchen was brought to the tables of the queen mother and the emperor. The queen mother's face sank when she saw the cake.Seeing that the emperor also frowned slightly, staring at the pastry in a daze.

The queen saw it with her eyes, and her face changed slightly, and she asked, "Why did you bring this crystal rose cake? There are no rules, why don't you hurry up and take it away!"
