Ten Miles of Red Makeup: The Legend of Ming Yu

Chapter 408 Congrats
A good night's sleep and wake up in the morning feeling refreshed.

This day was the Empress Dowager's birthday, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, and the sun was shining brightly.

The Empress Dowager's birthday banquet was regarded as the first serious banquet attended by Ming concubine after she got married. She didn't care, but the servant girl was very cautious.

I picked a light blue dress from her pile of dresses, the color is as elegant as the sky, and the bright concubine's skin is more beautiful than the snow, her black eyebrows are beautiful, her green temples are full of spring smoke, her teeth are bright and her eyes are bright. , Qiaoxiao Qianxi, beautiful eyes looking forward to Xi.

Such a dress attracts people's attention no matter where she goes, when she went to pay her respects at the Changhui Courtyard, the eldest lady looked her over from head to toe and said with a smile, "Your concubine is going to wear this outfit to the palace to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday? "

Ming concubine looked at her attire and said, "Is there something wrong with Ming concubine's attire?"

Where is it inappropriate?
No fit from head to toe.

King Jin was born to the Empress Dowager, the son of Prince Jin died at the hands of the prince, his grandson died, and his granddaughter Princess Jinyang was murdered and married to Prince Shunping Hou. A flower was stuck on the cow dung, that's all. , I met the concubine Shizi when she was visiting the Beauty Pavilion, but she fell from upstairs, hit the ground on her face, and ruined her face.

Can the queen mother be happy to see her, especially the more beautiful and beautiful she is, the more she will be in the heart of the queen mother. If she is smarter, she will not go to the palace to celebrate her birthday, but will stay in the palace obediently.

The eldest lady raised the topic, but she didn't reply, she just said, "I heard that your eldest brother was poisoned, you have invited all the doctors and doctors in the capital, and the imperial physicians have invited many, but no one can save him, but you have brought him back to life. Could it be that the quack is hiding in the capital?"

In fact, few people have seen the real face of Jianghu Langzhong. Even if he stays in the capital, as long as he changes his ostentatious attire, even if he walks through the door of Cheng Guogong's mansion, the people in Chengguo's mansion may not recognize him.

Ming concubine smiled and said, "Auntie is so well informed, don't you know that Second Young Master Shen and King Heng are very close?"

The side courtyard of the Shen family was the territory of the Shen family. If the quack went to the side courtyard, he would not be able to hide it from the Second Young Master Shen. If the Second Young Master Shen knew about it, King Heng would know about it.

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "I really don't know if you don't tell me about it. Young Master Shen is not the son of Shen's family, but he was given the status of young master, which shows how ineffective the other children of Shen's family are. It seems that the Shen family, which is incomparably wealthy, will be inherited by the second wife in the future."

Ming Concubine smiled, but didn't answer the question. It doesn't matter who will inherit the Shen family in the future.

The old lady sat on the Arhat couch with a calm expression, and said, "What are you preparing for the birthday gift?"

Leaving the matter to her, but not at ease, Ming concubine was a little speechless, turned around and told Xi'er, "Bring the birthday gift."

Xi'er nodded, and hurried back to get the birthday gift.

Ming concubine opened the brocade box herself, and opened the birthday gifts inside for the old lady to have a look.

It was a double-sided embroidered picture of a fairy celebrating his birthday. The embroidery was lifelike and exquisite.

The old lady frowned, and the eldest lady was a little annoyed, "The birthday gift prepared by the concubine represents our Zhennan Palace, if you embroidered it yourself, there is nothing to say, if you bought it, it would be too perfunctory. "

In such a short period of time, unless she had ten hands, she would definitely not be able to embroider well.

If you buy it, you won't even need 1000 taels. The concubine gave her 5000 taels as a birthday gift, so she lost 4000 taels so easily. The money is too cheap.

Ming concubine looked at Chu Mochen, her eyes streamed: You chose this birthday gift, you settle it.

Chu Mochen glanced back at her, and then looked at the eldest wife and said, "Auntie's words are too superficial. The queen mother has never seen anything good. Even if she presents the entire Zhennan Palace as a birthday gift, the queen mother will not be rare. This double-sided embroidery was done by a hundred-year-old lady. It took three years to embroider, and the asking price was 6000 taels. "

After a pause, Chu Mochen continued, "The congratulatory gifts from civil and military officials are mostly jade carvings, and few of them are carved by myself."

If you want to be perfunctory, then everyone is perfunctory to the queen mother together. If it is only precious, the Zhennan Palace does not lack that little money.

After saying these words, the dame lady was speechless, and asked her to see that these two people were either talking nonsense, or they had met a liar, a centenarian, who can't even see rice clearly, and even doing embroidery, Or double-sided embroidery, who would believe it?
Seeing that no one spoke, Chu Mochen said, "I chose the birthday gift together with the concubine Shizi. Today is the queen mother's birthday, and there is no time to prepare it again. Let others prepare it next year."

The old lady picked up the teacup, gently fiddled with the lid of the teacup, and said, "Is the centenarian still alive?"

Concubine Ming frowned, and the old lady asked what she meant, she looked at the old lady, and said, "I think the queen mother will like this birthday gift, and I want to meet the old lady with good eyes, please ask for advice." A way to keep healthy."

This is really possible, where can they find a centenarian with good eyes to enter the palace to meet the queen mother?
Ming concubine looked at Chu Mochen with a calm face, who stipulated that centenarians must be from Kyoto?They may be thousands of miles away, and the Queen Mother will never ask them to travel to Beijing.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, the eldest lady said, "There are a lot of rare treasures in the warehouse of the palace. If it doesn't fit, just change it. No one blames you."

At this time, there were footsteps outside the house.

The third wife, who hadn't seen anyone for several days, came in, and the eldest wife smiled and said, "Why are the third siblings here, are they getting better?"

The third wife put powder on her face, and she couldn't hide her haggardness. She said, "Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law. I'm in better health, and I can't stay on the bed forever. Today is the queen mother's birthday, so I have to go to the palace to celebrate the queen mother's birthday."

The eldest wife said gently, "If you are not in good health, don't force yourself too much."

The third wife smiled at her, and then stepped forward to greet the old lady. She was helped into the room by the maid, but when she came to greet her, the maid wanted to help her, but she pushed her away.

The old lady's eyes were cold and sharp like frost, and the depressed mood of the third wife improved a bit, and her body loosened. It turned out that she would also be angry. When she hurt Aunt Tao and the bastard before, did she think about it? How does she feel, her own son was exchanged by them for the prince and concubine, and was killed, even if she wanted her son, she dared not cry in front of others.

The third master promised to live up to her for the rest of his life, and he used his concubine and concubine to live up to her. He had a son, the old lady had a grandson, and she was the only one who lost her son in the end!
It was they who taught her that people don't kill themselves.

For so many years, I have to thank them for telling her to treat Wei'er as her own son, so as not to be noticed that something is wrong. Wei'er respects her as a mother, but when they love the bastard, they stabbed Wei'er hard. Heart.

If she died, Ling'er would have absolutely no affection for them, this was a talisman.
