The Queen has always been graceful and elegant, but it turns out that she actually has a fragile side.
"Sisi came to see the Queen Mother early in the morning, and the Queen Mother sent someone to summon the son. The son, minister, and the Queen Mother are really in tune with each other!"
She knelt down and kowtowed politely, raised her little head and smiled sweetly at the queen: "Sisi wishes my mother a happy New Year!"
Li Sixu has always preferred to choose more simple and elegant dresses, and rarely wears something as festive as red. She follows Yu Jieyu, and her complexion is extremely fair. The red dress makes her look even more beautiful. Her lips are red and her teeth are white. She is very pretty. Pleasant appearance.
She said that she and the Queen had a close connection between mother and daughter. The Queen felt very anxious about her, and the worries hidden between her brows were completely gone.
"This red dress looks particularly good today. Girls should wear some festive colors."
The Queen raised her hand to ask her to stand up: "Get up quickly, the ground is cold, come to the Queen Mother to warm your hands."
Li Sixu stood up and looked at Wang Shouyi, who was sitting opposite the queen.
The queen's eyebrows were smiling: "This is my elder brother Qi Guogong. He learned that our Xiao Shi has always been smart and well-informed, so he wanted to meet us for a long time, but he never had the chance."
"Mother, please stop laughing at me!"
Li Sixu hurriedly went to see Duke Qi and said, "Sisi wishes my uncle a happy New Year. I wish you good luck and everything will go as you wish."
When Li Sixu paid New Year's greetings to the queen, Duke Qi had been observing her.
The tenth princess obviously saw the tears that the queen had not had time to wipe away, but deliberately pretended not to see them. Instead, she only chose nice words to make her sister happy.
He is very discerning!
When the third prince was falsely accused, this little princess frightened Yuan Yicheng with a dagger in her hand. In the end, she slashed the dagger to her arm, which proved that she had planted the cowpox vaccine on her body to cause jaundice, thus turning the situation around.
There was also the arson case at the Royal Courtyard. She found out the real cause of the fire and the real culprit, thereby clearing the eldest prince's suspicion.
The New Year's Eve banquet was extremely dangerous, but she noticed something was wrong with Wu Jieyu in every possible way, and responded calmly and calmly, reviving the situation and protecting his sister safely.
At such a young age, she has already shown extraordinary courage. Such an outstanding little princess actually called him uncle in a soft voice.
What an honor?
Duke Qi was in awe and fond of the little princess in front of him.
He took off the jade pendant hanging from his waist: "The tenth princess wishes me a happy new year. I don't have anything good to offer. This jade pendant was handed down from my ancestors. I have been wearing it for the princess to play with."
It was passed down from ancestors and you still wear it?
This is an ancestral item!
Li Sixu didn't need to take the jade pendant and take a closer look. She only took a look at the warm and clear color of the jade pendant and knew that it was a rare good thing.
The Duke of Qi came into the palace to pay his respects to the Queen. The Queen specially sent someone to summon her, which shows that this was intentional.
Although he didn't say it clearly, he did mean to recognize his relatives.
That's why she sweetly called her uncle.
At this moment, Duke Qi handed over the jade pendant. Li Sixu glanced at the queen, who nodded. Then she took it with both hands and blessed Duke Qi.
"This jade pendant is so beautiful, thank you uncle."
Li Sixu leaned on the queen's arms and said childishly: "When we return to Linglong Residence, Sisi will hide the jade pendant."
The queen was stunned: "Why hide it?"
"We can't let Yun'er and Wei'er see it!"
Li Sixu smiled sweetly: "My uncle gave such a good jade pendant to Sisi. What if I wear it and flaunt it around, and Yun'er and Wei'er see it? What should I do? The most precious things should be well hidden, and the wealth should not be exposed. That way you won’t make people jealous.”
"The jade pendant given by my uncle is a unique and rare treasure. Mother, please tell me. Is your son-in-law right?"
"Yes, everything Xiao Shi said is right!"
The queen looked helpless and scratched her little nose: "You are such a clever little girl."
The mother and daughter leaned together and talked affectionately, but Duke Qi did not think that the little princess's waxy voice and soft words to the queen were coquettish.
He has a hobby of collecting treasures.
Although His Majesty always adheres to simplicity, in order to curb the extravagance of the royal family, he even destroyed his own rare utensils. Because he cares about his friendship with him, he turns a blind eye to his hobby of collecting treasures.
And he never knows how to restrain himself, and he likes to show off his good things in front of others.
For example, the jade pendant he gave to the tenth princess was an excellent imperial green, a top-quality piece of dragon stone, and was worth thousands of gold.
If he really thought that the princes who had been educated by the concubines in the harem would covet the jade pendant worn by the princess, he would be foolish.
Having seen how Li Sixu's resourcefulness in the court turned things around time and time again, Duke Qi thought that her words were very meaningful and she was clearly reminding him not to expose his wealth.
If he is too ostentatious, it will give Wu Jieyu a handle against his sister, Queen Wang.
Sweat broke out on Duke Qi's back, and he looked at her with even more awe.
He was grateful to her for saving the face of Queen Wang at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and for saving the face of Queen Wang at the New Year's Eve banquet. He was very fortunate that his sister, Queen Wang, fell in love with the little princess.
Even Duke Qi was so grateful to Li Sixu. Knowing how dangerous the New Year's Eve banquet was, the queen didn't know how to love and pamper her.
"My little Shi has grown up by one year, and is now a seven-year-old girl."
The Queen's eyes were full of love: "Tell me, Queen Mother, what are your New Year's wishes?"
"Yes, I have!"
The queen waited for her to continue, and Li Sixu raised her little head and smiled at her: "Sisi wants to make the queen healthy and happy."
Compared with a lot of auspicious words from various palaces when they came to pay New Year greetings, these two simple congratulations almost brought tears to the queen's eyes.
He knew that she had a headache and didn't want her to get sick again. He also knew that she had a difficult relationship with the emperor and wanted to make her happy.
"That's all, like a little old lady who worries about me."
The queen nodded her little nose with a look of helplessness: "I will not play riddles anymore. Yesterday, your Aunt Yuzhen asked someone to bring a letter to me, saying that she wanted to invite you to stay at Yuzhen Temple for a while."
If you go to Yuzhenguan for a short stay, wouldn’t it be possible to experience the Tang Dynasty’s Lantern Festival in an upright manner?
The majestic Daming Palace was a world of its own, but there were no human fireworks in this world. She dreamed of visiting the bustling Lantern Festival.
The Queen knew that she longed for the world outside the palace, so she specially opened a small stove for her!
Li Sixu's eyes were bright, and she couldn't hide the joy on her face, but she didn't know what she thought of, and her eyes gradually dimmed.
"It's better not to go now!"
Li Sixu laid her head on Queen Wang's lap, hugged her arm and snuggled up: "It's too cold. It's fun outside the palace when spring comes. The queen mother sent a message to Aunt Yuzhen on Sisi's behalf, saying When the spring outing comes, Sisi will go to Yuzhen Temple to accompany her!"
