"Your Highness greets the Queen Mother."
Miao Qinghua saw Duan Gouqiong, opened her eyes, and asked, "Have you thought about how to arrange a man for the general's wife?"
Miao Qinghua asked directly, and since there were only Miao Qinghua and Duan Gouqiong in the hall, there was no need to be cautious when speaking.
Duan Gouqiong rolled his eyes, then smiled and said, "General's wife is in the palace, and there are only a few men around. Unless they are guards, I really can't think of anyone else who can get close to Xiao Chu'er!"
Miao Qinghua, however, gave a hint: "I want you to find a way to lure the Regent over there!"
Duan Gouqiong had originally looked calm and straightforward, but when he heard this, his eyes widened: "W-what... lead the Regent over..."
Miao Qinghua asked, "Why, are you feeling embarrassed?"
Duan Gouqiong started coughing: "The Regent is such a shrewd person. I, I can't do that with my little tricks, unless I find an ordinary man for her..."
As he spoke, he looked depressed.
Miao Qinghua smiled and said, "I can create opportunities for you!"
Duan Gouqiong's eyes lit up instantly: "Create opportunities..."
Miao Qinghua nodded.
After hesitating for a moment, Duan Gouqiong asked, "What exactly is it like? Please tell me, Queen Mother."
Not long after Duan Gouqiong left, Miao Qinghua sent someone to announce the news.
Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen were both a little surprised when they heard the news. Miao Qinghua wanted to hold a palace banquet at this time. They had to discuss carefully how to drive away the plague god, how to organize it, and what official positions should be established.
It's obvious that he is just trying to settle old scores.
Naturally, there was no reason for Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen not to attend. After sending off the palace messenger, Jing Yuchen asked, "What do you think the Queen Mother's purpose is?"
Ni Yueshan raised an eyebrow. "Why not ask the Imperial Astronomical Observatory who lives in the mansion to calculate your fortune? Perhaps... your lucky star has moved?"
Jing Yuchen rolled his eyes at Ni Yueshan and said, "Nonsense! My beloved concubine is clearly here!"
As he said this, he put his arm on Ni Yueshan's shoulder, and was very unhappy with what Ni Yueshan said.
Ni Yueshan said with disdain, "You are still young, and having three wives and four concubines is normal. If you succeed in seizing the throne in the future, then the three thousand..."
"Ahem, you're here again!" Jing Yuchen interrupted Ni Yueshan before she could finish.
Ni Yueshan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go pick out some clothes!"
Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan's back curiously as she walked away: "What clothes are you picking?"
"There will be a palace banquet tomorrow. If I don't dress nicely, people will think I'm a shrew!" Ni Yueshan responded without turning her head.
When Jing Yuchen heard the news, he hurried over and said, "In my heart, you will always be the most beautiful!"
At the morning court on the second day, Miao Qinghua deliberately mentioned the palace banquet and specifically said that families could be brought along.
After the court was dismissed, the ministers took the news home, and many of them clamored to enter the palace.
Although the current emperor does not need to choose a concubine, it is still a good idea to enter the palace and gain some experience!
What if Miao Qinghua was thinking of selecting a woman to marry off to a young man from another aristocratic family?
By the evening, ministers had already entered the palace one after another.
Ni Yueshan spent an entire afternoon choosing clothes in the palace, but still couldn't find anything that suited her.
"Why didn't I notice before that the clothes I wore were so light in color? My hairstyle is always the same and has never changed. I have too few jewelry!" Ni Yueshan threw the clothes on the ground and continued to rummage through the closet.
Qingfeng and Qingluan on the side did not say a word and watched silently.
Jing Yuchen came over at this time and saw Ni Yueshan still wearing her underwear. He was a little surprised: "Everyone else has gone out, and you are still picking out clothes?"
Ni Yueshan glanced at Jing Yuchen and said, "Yes, today I want to outshine all the beauties..."
Jing Yuchen snorted as if he had heard something funny. "What a beauty, who are you trying to seduce?"
"It's just beautiful." Ni Yueshan said without turning his head. As if he thought of something, he turned back to look at Jing Yuchen and looked him up and down.
He was still wearing a light crescent-white robe and holding a black bone fan in his hand. He looked no different from usual and it was obvious that he was unwilling to put any thought into it.
Ni Yueshan muttered, "It's this color again! I'm almost sick of looking at it. Why don't you change to bright red? With your devilishly charming temperament, why are you pretending to be a refined and handsome young man?"
Jing Yuchen felt that Ni Yueshan's words were a bit derogatory...
He was very depressed, and then he suggested: "I think you and I should just wear bright red and treat it as our wedding night!"
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen like an idiot, "I don't have any bright red clothes!"
Jing Yuchen chuckled: "Yes, who said no!"
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen in confusion, and then asked someone to cut the wedding dress he wore on the wedding day shorter. It was not so exaggerated, but it didn't look like a wedding dress either. However, it was indeed bright red.
Ni Yueshan looked at her clothes and felt that they were strange. As the sky outside gradually darkened, Jing Yuchen hurriedly urged: "There is no time, it is too late. Just put on a big gold hairpin from the gold shop. I think that will be enough!"
Ni Yueshan sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at himself in it, the corner of his mouth twitched, it was really exaggerated.
Qingluan on the side suggested: "There are also big red lips."
Ni Yueshan put on some rouge, and then she looked in the bronze mirror like a bride in a gorgeous dress.
At the palace, almost everyone at the banquet had arrived. Some people looked around, wondering, "Why isn't the Regent here? Wasn't it the Regent who first proposed the idea of a plague festival?"
