Aunt Qi and Aunt Lan were talking, feeling uncomfortable for some reason.
However, the empress was still happy and could not show any sadness for her to see. The conversation changed to the subject of His Highness's birth.
Bit by bit, the past events were all intertwined before her eyes, and interspersed among these past events was the tall and handsome man, her husband-in-law.
At the end of the sentence, the Queen raised her glass to the two of them, her eyes filled with confusion, "Thank you, I, for staying with me all these years."
The two of them were startled, "Why do you suddenly say that?"
The Queen smiled and said, "I had a sudden feeling, drink it quickly, and dress me up after drinking it. I just saw the autumn chrysanthemums blooming very well outside. I went to pick one and give it to me to put on my hairpin."
"It won't be too late to get your hairpin tomorrow. It's time for you to take a bath."
The queen said boldly and freely: "Who said you can't dress up with hairpins after bathing? I'm going to take a bath now. You guys pick a dress. Don't ask for court clothes. I hate those court clothes. I will be here tonight. Be beautiful, very pretty.”
"Okay, it's up to you." Aunt Lan stood up after drinking. "I'm going to pick flowers. Aqi, you can take care of my wife's bath. Maybe the emperor will come tonight."
Aunt Qi thought about it. Her Majesty was so happy tonight because the Emperor must have said something considerate to her. It was indeed a good thing that the Emperor's grandson was born. Dress up well and she will surely amaze the Emperor.
The flowering period of autumn chrysanthemums has actually come to an end, but the autumn chrysanthemums in the garden seem to be holding on to the tail of the flowering period and are blooming to the extreme. The fragrance of autumn chrysanthemums makes the quiet night even more poetic.
Aunt Lan cut a basket and took out the extra tomorrow to dry and make tea. The autumn chrysanthemum tasted fragrant on the teeth and cheeks.
It's a pity that the plum blossoms haven't bloomed yet, otherwise they could have made a wreath. When the empress was a child, she loved to wear a light pink plum blossom wreath on her head and a white fox fur cloak while running in the snow.
The queen was so innocent and innocent at that time.
After taking a bath, Aunt Qi came out with a lot of clothes and said in annoyance: "The clothes I have worn over the years are all noble and graceful."
The queen looked at the pile of brocade clothes, frowned and said, "I remember that I have a plain white skirt embroidered with green flowers. Let's look for it."
"That one was worn by you when you were in the boudoir. It has been kept in the box for a long time."
"It doesn't matter, just apply the fragrance and you'll be able to wear it." The queen said with a smile.
"Okay, if you want to wear a slave girl, I'll arrange one for you." Aunt Qi said, then went into the inner hall, took out the plain skirt embroidered with small green flowers from the bottom of the box, and unfolded it, slowly revealing the girlish feelings. .
Full of the dusty smell of time.
"It's not moth-eaten, but it needs to be ironed first." Aunt Qi got busy over there, while Aunt Lan pressed the queen in front of the bronze mirror and began to comb her hair and makeup.
My cheeks are a lot thinner, but fortunately they have a good foundation. After drinking a little wine and taking a shower, the background color on my cheeks is rosy. I cover it with powder a little, then apply rouge, and draw Yuanshan Dai. , the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and his eyes looked much bigger.
She styled her hair in a high bun. Although it was a little higher, she especially liked to style her hair like this when she entered the house. Aunt Lan picked an autumn chrysanthemum that bloomed the best and tied it into her bun. The yellow color was reflected in the light of the lamp. , it seems to be overflowing with light, very bright.
Aunt Lan took a look at it and felt regretful, "It's still not as good as pink plum blossoms. If you put two of them on a hairpin and embellish it, it will be the most plain and beautiful."
The queen looked at her appearance in the bronze mirror. The traces of age were covered by makeup, or perhaps because of the soft lighting, her whole face looked much softer.
She smiled and said, "That's fine. Don't be greedy. You should be as beautiful as autumn chrysanthemums and as elegant as winter plums."
Aunt Qi finished ironing the clothes, lit incense and turned the clothes around a few times to make sure that the fragrance was absorbed, and then took them over to help her change clothes.
The clothes she wore when she was a girl actually fit her perfectly, her waist was less than a hand's length away, she stood on her toes and spun twice as usual, and her skirt was like a whirlpool, waving traces of youth.
