Xia Qiyue bowed calmly and thanked her, then took her daughter back to her seat and sat down.

She also popularized science. Even if the queen mother wanted to reward her courtiers, she would ask the eunuch to send it to the mansion afterwards, instead of giving it on the spot.

But the queen also said at this time, "Yes, I like this glazed mirror very much, and the queen mother gave it to me. As a junior, I can't hold it!"

Xia Qiyue had no choice but to thank the empress again.

But a little girl sitting beside her said, "Queen, Yunxi likes this glazed mirror so much, can you give this glazed mirror to Yunxi?"

Chu Yunxi is the queen's old daughter. In the harem full of Yingying and Yanyan, it is not easy for her to have a child at such a young age, so the queen usually dotes on her.

Seeing her daughter begging for something from herself in such a situation without caring, the queen was a little displeased.

Moreover, she also liked this glass mirror very tightly, so she didn't have time to speak for a while.

The Queen Mother looked at this scene, not showing it on the face, but watching the excitement in her heart.

She is now, she is happy when the queen is unlucky, and she doesn't like the youngest granddaughter born by the queen even more.

Although she is the granddaughter and the only princess, she still doesn't like it.

Xia Qiyue and Ke'er were standing there, and before they could turn around and return to their seats, they froze there at a loss.

And Chu Yunxi, who was only six years old, was a little anxious because he didn't get what he liked, so he reminded the queen again.

The queen couldn't help it, showing a little helplessness on her face, but it still couldn't resist her daughter speaking on this occasion, and then nodded, but said to send it to her in a few days.

Although Chu Yunxi, who has always been bad-tempered, is only six years old, she already has the ability to read words and expressions. She clearly saw that her mother was a little bit reluctant, and she said that she might be lying to her by sending her away in a few days, so she was going to bring some unreasonable troubles now. Walk.

The little girl made a fuss, but the queen mother remained silent, and the queen immediately asked the maid to take the princess down in a hurry.

"Mother, I just want that glazed mirror. My daughter will take it away now, and won't attend the New Year's Eve banquet..."

In other words, he is still a small person, so there is no pressure at all to say such things.

As a princess, she is the only concubine of the imperial family. No matter she is six years old or a baby, she has to attend the New Year's Eve palace banquet.

As expected, the queen's face changed, "Shut up! What are you talking about? Why don't you just sit down obediently?"

She scolded her for wanting her daughter, and looked at the queen mother worriedly. These days, the queen mother is looking for her fault. If the precious daughter is caught by the queen mother in the wrong place, then she will suffer her life.

Sure enough, when the Empress Dowager heard this, her face darkened, and she was about to reprimand her.

Seeing this, Xia Qiyue saw that the crowd didn't have many eyes on her and her daughter, so she hurriedly pulled her daughter back to her seat.

But Ke'er quickly broke free from her hand, and ran towards Chu Yunxi before she could stop her.

Xia Qiyue was frightened to death, but she didn't dare to yell in this situation, so she could only stare at her daughter, thinking about her punishment.

I saw Ke'er running over, gently took the hand of the rascal Chu Yunxi, and then took out a small palm-sized mirror inlaid with colorful beads with the other hand, and put it on her hand.

"Take it, this is a mirror for children. This is my favorite thing. I gave it to you. Don't snatch it from your mother, you know? A gentleman does not steal people's love!"

Xia Qiyue was frightened to death, watching the reactions of the Queen Mother, Queen and Princess Yunxi in fear.

But while everyone was stunned, Chu Yunxi happily picked up the small mirror that Ke'er gave him, looked at it again and again, and then thanked him very politely.

Ke'er nodded, accepting her thanks, then turned around and wanted to run back to her mother, but was held back by Chu Yunxi.

Xia Qiyue was about to go forward to scoop up people, so she thought about her excuses, but the next moment she heard Chu Yunxi's invitation to Ke'er.

"What's your name? Can you be my friend? Can you play with me?"

The initial quarrel ended with the children's gift and friendship, and the Queen Mother couldn't say anything more.

The queen was even more relieved.

Seeing Ke'er being pulled by Chu Yunxi to sit with her, Xia Qiyue returned to her seat without saying anything.

After the gifts were received and the time was almost up, the Empress Dowager led everyone to the palace where the New Year's Eve banquet was held.

The male guests have already arrived one after another, and they all sit according to their grades, and the female guests need to sit according to their grades even more.

Xia Qiyue was still in the last row, but Ke'er was pulled by Chu Yunxi to sit at the lower head of the queen.

Next to them was a little girl who was about the same age as them. Xia Qiyue didn't know her at all, and she couldn't bring Ke'er back, so she had to sit obediently in her own place.

During the dinner, she met An Zichen's eyes several times, and both of them were a little worried about their daughter's situation. Xia Qiyue wanted to tell him about the situation, but it was too far away and there was no way.

Since An Zichen was a new rich man, Xia Qiyue was not ignored during the banquet. Many wives spoke to her, and the families of the generals were also very enthusiastic.

In such a tense situation, it really gave Xia Qiyue some relaxation.

The palace banquet on New Year's Eve began, and Xia Qiyue also met the ancient emperor for the first time.

Although he is getting older, the momentum is still there, and with the status of the emperor, it gives people a sense of majesty.

The palace banquet began, the emperor gave a speech, and then talked about the triumphant return of the soldiers. An Zichen was naturally the number one to be praised.

After a commendation and high-sounding speech, it was the gift-giving session for the relatives of the emperor and the congratulatory gifts from the ministers.

To put it bluntly, the New Year's Eve palace banquet, the emperor and the empress dowager received the most honorable gifts.

Then there was the talent show of some daughters-in-law. Xia Qiyue liked this part very much. She didn't have to show herself, and she could watch the show for free, which was pretty good.

Those families with daughters who are suitable for princes and counties are all trying their best to show off, hoping that their daughters will be favored by some princes and princes, and they will be squeezed into the ranks of the emperor's relatives.

But for rank five military generals, these are things to watch.

They have neither daughters of the right age nor that ambition.

But Xia Qiyue's situation was broken by the Liang Guo envoy who came to talk together.

She didn't expect Liang Guo to send a princess to take the lead to negotiate a truce agreement with Dong Chu.

And it also appeared at this kind of New Year's Eve palace banquet.

When Princess Liang Jinli appeared in the Wuyang Palace, it happened that all the daughters had finished performing their talents.

She stepped forward gracefully and saluted the emperor, "Princess Liang Jinli pays her respects to the Emperor of Eastern Chu. Long live the Emperor!"

The arrogant and unconvinced tone could not be suppressed.

"Princess Liang Guo, please get up!" The emperor smiled on his face, no matter how much he disliked this Princess Liang in his heart, he still didn't show it on his face.
