"Why are you still kneeling?"
Queen Wang guessed that the tea leaves had a mystery, and quietly handed the tea jar to the maid at the side.
The palace maid took the tea leaves and went to prepare water to make tea. The queen looked gentle and stretched out her hand to help her: "Get up quickly, my knees hurt when I kneel carefully."
"It hurts, it hurts, Sisi can't get up!"
When Li Sixu stood up, she stumbled and fell down. A pair of spiritual eyes were still squinting to observe her. Empress Wang was amused by the poor performance, so she simply leaned down and half hugged her to pull her up.
Knowing that there was a soft cushion where she knelt, the queen cooperated and rubbed her knees for her.
Li Sixu came to the Nanxun Hall to pay her respects. She was wearing a dress sewn by a talented person. The dress was embroidered with orchids. When Yu Jieyu mended the laceration on her arm, it was embroidered with orchid leaves.
There were only two small knots tied with silk ribbons on her head, which were no different from the last time she came to Nanxun Hall.
The Queen half hugged and half pulled her to her feet, then spun her around in a circle. When she saw such a beautiful little person, Yu Jieyu couldn't help but frowned because she was so stupidly dressed up.
"She has a spirited face and is as beautiful as your mother-in-law, yet she dresses so plainly all the time."
She ordered the maid next to her: "Chunxia, get the clothes I asked the Clothing Bureau to make for Princess Ten, and then go to the warehouse to pick out some jewelry. I want to dress up Xiao Shi well."
How many days does it take for the Shangyi Bureau to sew clothes?
Li Sixu thought that the last time she came with her master to consult the Queen, the Queen felt that she was too plainly dressed, so she ordered the Clothing Bureau to make clothes for her.
When she came to Nanxun Hall that day, she came back from outside the palace. The drier and neater the clothes when leaving the palace for consultation, the more convenient it would be.
Besides, the empress had a headache that time and was covered in sweat. She was still worrying about wearing too plain clothes. Li Sixu felt that the soft spot in her heart was suddenly poked.
She actually didn't like having hairpins on her head. If her hair wasn't too short, she would have to ask Granny Wei and Qing He to tie it up with silk ribbons. She would have liked to roll her hair up casually like Liu Yunying.
The queen hugged her, and Li Sixu leaned in her arms and acted coquettishly: "Mother, Sisi is naturally beautiful, there is no need to dress up!"
"Are you ashamed?"
The queen was amused by her!
Scratching her little nose with his hand: "My little Shi is born with beauty, so she must dress up well and not let her time go by."
"But Sisi is still a little girl with yellow hair..."
The queen hugged Li Sixu and smiled. Eunuch Gui, who was waiting on the side, looked sideways from time to time, feeling very pleased.
Because Jin Wu Jieyu became his concubine, the emperor was very dissatisfied with her mother-in-law and had not set foot in Nanxun Hall for several days.
As a result, the empress became gloomy and suffered from a headache.
The tenth princess followed the imperial doctor to Nanxun Hall last time and cured her mother-in-law. Today she comes to accompany her. Her mother-in-law has been in a happy mood and laughed several times.
Thinking that the queen had not smiled much these days, with the ten princesses accompanying her, the empress's frown relaxed.
Seeing the empress and Li Sixu whispering and talking intimately, Eunuch Gui's nose felt sore for some reason and his eyes were a little moist.
Chunxia went to the warehouse to get jewelry and led people from the clothing bureau into the palace. Eunuch Gui was afraid that someone would see the joke, so he hurriedly turned his back.
After the maids from the Shangyi Bureau followed Chunxia into the palace, Li Sixu looked at the row of maids and eunuchs holding trays and was shocked by the formation.
"Mother, are these the clothes you prepared for Sisi?"
The way Xiao Tuanzi opened his mouth in surprise pleased the queen again.
The queen nodded!
The pile of clothes in the palace maid's tray was piled as high as a hill. Li Sixu raised her little head and looked at the queen: "Mother, is this too much? Sisi has never had so many new clothes at once."
The little man's eyes were as clear as a young deer's, and his body was still leaning forward.
The queen felt a little sad after hearing her words, so she asked the maid from the Clothing Bureau to come forward and take a pink dress and mark it on her body.
"There are only five sets of clothes in summer and autumn. Because autumn clothes have outer coverings, they look more numerous."
Chunxia said that pink clothes were suitable for Li Sixu, and the queen said lovingly, "No, Xiao Shi has a fair complexion, and this pink fairy skirt suits her very well."
The queen asked Chunxia to take Li Sixu to the inner room. When Li Sixu changed her clothes and came out, she saw a cute little ball of jade snow, which was very pleasing to the eye.
It's just the two little knots on her head that look a little too plain.
The queen loosened her hair, put it into a bun again, and picked out a pink tourmaline hairpin to insert into her hair, which made her oval face as white as jade and her eyes more energetic.
The queen was very satisfied: "This is how a girl should look. My little Shi is really smart and cute."
"Last time, Liu Jieyu sent the carved and dyed cloth to the empress. There was still a batch of anthocyanin left, which was just right for the little princess. After the little princess left Nanxun Palace that day, the empress asked her slave to go to the warehouse to pick the fabric for the little princess's clothes. Servant I also took the piece of plain carved and dyed cloth to the Clothing Bureau."
The carved and dyed cloth given by Liu Jieyu was beautiful. She gave one to Yue'er to make clothes, and the remaining one was plain and kept in the warehouse.
It is suitable for making clothes for little people.
The queen couldn't wait to take a look and urged: "Take Xiao Shi to the inner room to show me. I remember that the cloth is light blue carved cloth. It looks good with this necklace."
Queen Wang happily picked out clothes and jewelry for Li Sixu. When she was changing her clothes, the maid waiting in the palace had already brewed a pot of cactus tea and brought it to her.
The little man in disguise was so handsome that the queen thought that if she had any trouble, she would look like Xiao Shi.
It doesn't matter if she is born to Yu Jieyu, she is the mother of the princesses and princes in the palace, and there is a cute little dumpling who often comes to Nanxun Hall to say hello, so it couldn't be better.
While sipping tea, she picked out clothes and jewelry for Li Sixu. After several cups of tea, her interest remained undiminished.
It was only when the Xingqing Palace sent the young father-in-law to convey the order that the queen got away from the fun of dressing her up.
"The emperor has finished discussing political affairs and wants to come to Nanxun Palace to have dinner with his wife. He specially ordered his servants to inform him."
Xuanzong walked away last time and did not set foot in Nanxun Hall again for several days.
The queen looked dignified and said: "Master Yao is seriously ill. The court has been busy with government affairs during this period. Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work."
"Your Majesty, Master Yao has been in court for the past two days!"
The little eunuch glanced at Li Sixu beside the queen and replied: "The emperor learned that the queen has another headache and is very worried about the queen's body."
Seeing that the queen had something to ask the young father-in-law of Xingqing Hall, Li Sixu hurriedly and obediently stepped away.
The empress asked Chunxia to send someone to take the clothes made by the Shangyi Bureau and the jewelry she picked for Li Sixu to Linglong Residence. As soon as Li Sixu walked out of the palace, there were several boxes carrying clothes and jewelry following behind her. eunuch and maid.
Just as she was about to step down the steps of Nanxun Hall, she saw half of his head sticking out from behind the pillar in the corridor. It was Xu Cairen who was brought back to Nanxun Hall from Leng Palace by Eunuch Gui.
Li Sixu paused and ordered, "Send your clothes and jewelry to Linglong Residence first."
Wait for the eunuch and maid holding clothes and jewelry to leave.
Li Sixu shouted to the corridor: "Everyone is gone, come out!"
