She did not know why, but she felt that her face had suddenly become heavy after putting on makeup, and it was a little itchy.
Just as she was about to scratch it, Nanny Wu immediately grabbed her arm and stopped her. “Princess, please bear with it. If you touch it now, it’ll be ruined. ”
Jian Qingqing could only endure the itch on her face and fall asleep on the stool again.
When she woke up again, she felt that her head was a thousand pounds heavy. When she looked at it, she realized that she was wearing a lot of headdresses on her head, which made her hair bigger than her face. She felt that the headdress would fall off when she shook her head.
“Nanny,” Jian Qingqing asked pitifully, “do I really have to wear such a heavy thing?”
Nanny Wu helped her to steady her head and comforted her, “This is already the lightest one. The crown that the Empress is wearing is more than ten jin.”
Jian Qingqing only felt that the Empress was really pitiful and instantly did not feel uncomfortable anymore.
At 7 am, Jian Qingqing entered the palace in a carriage.
Today, the Imperial Palace was particularly lively. The carriages of various families formed a long line outside the Imperial Palace, and the families of the various officials walked into the Imperial Palace with dignified steps.
Jian Qingqing was originally going with them, but she was stopped by a little eunuch.
“Princess Ding’an, please wait!”
Jian Qingqing looked over and found that it was a little eunuch who was serving in front of the Emperor. She asked, “What’s wrong?
“His Majesty has asked me to bring you to the banquet,” the young eunuch replied.
“What? i ‘ Jian Qingqing was puzzled. “Why should I go to the banquet? The front banquet is the place where the Emperor invites the ministers and the female guests are received by the Empress at the back banquet.”
The eunuch smiled. “I don’t know either. It was his Majesty’s arrangement.” Well, Jian Qingqing could only follow him.
When it came to the front of the banquet, the ministers were already sitting there in twos and threes. When they saw her arrival, they were surprised for a moment. An official with a long beard asked unhappily, “Who are you? Do you know what this place is? Why did you randomly run here? Aren’t you going to where you belong?
Before Jian Qingqing could speak, Ming Zhiyan said, “If Princess Ding’an is here, then it is naturally arranged by the Emperor, when did it become Official Liu’s turn to interfere?
When he said this, everyone was stunned. Lord Liu asked in surprise, “You are Princess Ding’an?!”
Jian Qingqing nodded slightly and said expressionlessly, “Yes, I am.”
The crowd still looked at her in disbelief, and then they started whispering.
Jian Qingqing was too lazy to care about what they said. She looked around and did not know where to sit.
Ming Zhiyan waved at her and said gently, “Come here.”
Jian Qingqing looked at the seat beside him. There was no one there yet, which was just what she wanted.
She walked over excitedly and looked at Ming Zhiyan’s exquisite side profile. She became playful and asked with pouted lips, “Brother Ming, do I look good today?”
Ming Zhiyan looked at her innocent face seriously. Her carefully dressed face seemed to be different from usual, but she was still very cute.
A strange emotion suddenly rose in his heart. His face was slightly red as he said, “It’s nice.”
Jian Qingqing did not let him go. She asked with a smile, “Which part of me looks good?”
Ming Zhiyan tried his best to ignore his pounding heart and pretended to be calm. ‘Everything looks good.”
Jian Qingqing looked at the tips of his ears, which were already red. She thought that the usually calm and restrained Prince Ming actually had such a cute side. She felt that it was very funny.
However, if you tease people too much, they should run away. Jian Qingqing knew when to stop and laughed, “Alright, I’ll let you off..”
