Behind the ivory curved screen carved with eight landscape patterns.

The little girl was about to put on her clothes, and the cherry-colored silk-colored double nest cloud and wild goose palace dress was worn on her body, not only did not look too grand, but it complemented her perfectly. She has a good-looking appearance and can support the posture of this dress. At first, Empress Chen was a little worried about whether it would fit well, but seeing her change into her clothes, her heart suddenly fell back into her stomach.

Wei Luo was holding an ivory-white silk veil and was about to wrap it around her arms when she raised her eyes and saw Empress Chen and Mrs. Zhen Guogong walking out together, she hurriedly bowed her knees and said, "Empress Empress..."

Empress Chen stepped forward to hold her arms, asking her to excuse herself, looked her up and down with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "It took so long to put on a dress, and I still think that this dress doesn't suit you. It seems that I have thought too much, isn't this very good?"

The palace costumes are brightly colored, cumbersome and gorgeous, and the hair complements the girl's bright face and beautiful eyes, like a porcelain doll that has been repeatedly carved, and everything is exquisite.

Even Mrs. Zhen Guogong who came here with Empress Chen couldn't help but take a few more glances, and praised: "It's really a wonderful person."

Wei Luo looked embarrassed, secretly pinched the golden butterfly rose hairpin in her sleeve, and said guiltily: "I kept your mother waiting for a long time, and it took a little longer to tie the palace sash..."

Empress Chen was not in a hurry, she was just worried that she would encounter some trouble. Seeing that she was fine and well at the moment, she reassuredly said: "It's okay, you wear it slowly, I will wait for you outside."

She nodded yes.

After Empress Chen and Mrs. Zhen Guogong took them out, Wei Luo let out a long sigh of relief. When she heard Empress Chen's voice just now, she almost screamed out of fright, but luckily there was time, after Zhao Jie left the green gauze closet, she had just hurriedly changed clothes when Empress Chen came in.

The hairpin that Zhao Jie gave her was subconsciously hidden in her sleeve, not wanting to be known. This hairpin is so similar to Zhao Liuli's, the Liuli one was given by Zhao Jie, if someone else sees her, it is not difficult to guess that it was also given by Zhao Jie. She is a girl who has not left the cabinet now, let alone other things, just wearing things from men on her body is not very good for her reputation.

Thinking of Zhao Jie...you can't help but think of Song Hui.

No matter what she did with Zhao Jie, her marriage with Song Hui should have ended. She didn't like Song Hui, and it was impossible for her to marry him. It was not an option to procrastinate like this. After all, since she was reborn, she never thought about being his wife again. After getting along with each other for these years, she no longer has much prejudice against Song Hui. He treats her well, he is sincerely good. No matter why he got engaged to Wei Zheng in his previous life, at least in this life he was wholeheartedly being her brother Song Hui. It's a pity that she has never had any affection for him, no matter how good she is, she can't be tempted.

While thinking wildly, she rolled up her scarf and walked out from behind the screen.

Gong'e in Hongsang had just been reprimanded by Empress Chen, and now she did not dare to be sloppy at all. She respectfully led her to sit down in front of the nanmu gold-painted dressing table, and combed her hair again. Not long after, she pulled up a bun with a pair of maids looking at the immortals, put on a treasure-shaped pattern of flowers and a jade cicada and gold bird hairpin, and put on a pair of gold lantern earrings inlaid with jewels.

Just as she was about to stand up, Yun Zi, the court lady next to Zhao Liuli, came over and said, "Miss Wei, Your Highness, please go to the Nuan Pavilion."

Wei Luo tilted her head and asked, "Did you say something?"

Yun Zi shook her head.

She put down the grate, got up and followed Yunzi into the Nuan Pavilion.

Zhao Liuli had just bathed, and was sitting on the couch in a taupe-colored thin long gown, not letting anyone get close to her, her eyes were red as if she was sulking with someone.

Wei Luo stepped forward and asked, only to realize that she had an awkward relationship with Yang Zhen. It's not a big deal, today is her fifteenth birthday, she doesn't have any other requirements, she just wants Yang Zhen to be by her side. But that wood has been missing since the morning, and he doesn't know where he went. He just came back, didn't even say a word to her, turned around and went to other things.

What is he busy with? Isn't his most important thing to protect her

Zhao Liuli puffed up her cheeks as she spoke, "...I'm angry."

Wei Luo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, at this moment, the ceremony will be done immediately, so why bother getting angry? She had no choice but to coax Liuli to stay, let her obediently change her clothes and roll up her hair, and then get angry with Yang Zhen after the ceremony is over.

She has lost her tongue a lot, but fortunately Zhao Liuli is not an unreasonable little girl. After she complained to her, although she was unhappy, she didn't lose her temper and began to change her clothes seriously.

Coming out of Nuan Pavilion, walking around the corner, I happened to hear the conversation between Empress Chen and another person in front of me.

Empress Chen called the other party Mrs. Wen, Wei Luo thought for a while, and among the wives present today, only the wife of Duke Ding's mansion was surnamed Wen.

Why are they talking here? Is there something important

Wei Luo subconsciously stamped her feet, and only listened to Empress Chen's voice: "If I remember correctly, the third son of the family should be eighteen this year..."

Wen's said everything, with a very respectful tone: "Your Majesty remembers correctly, Xun'er just turned eighteen at the beginning of this year."

Empress Chen hummed, and said slowly: "I remember that Xun'er is modest and polite, cheerful and open-minded, and he is born with a good-looking talent. I think he is very popular with girls, right?"

Wen shi smiled lightly, and said frankly: "I'm not afraid of the empress' empress' jokes, Xun'er has a eccentric temper, and he doesn't want to get in touch with the girl's family, so now he has not even decided on a marriage."

Empress Chen groaned, very puzzled: "I remember that he was very lively when he was a child, and he had been to Zhaoyang Palace a few times, and he got along well with Liuli at that time, why did he become a quirk?"

Wen said again: "Your Majesty doesn't know something..."

Wei Luo didn't listen to what was said later, she turned around and walked towards the apse from another road.

The meaning of Empress Chen's words is already very obvious, Zhao Liuli will be married this year, and will stay for another one or two years at most. Empress Chen still doesn't know the relationship between Zhao Liuli and Yang Zhen. If she knew, she would never agree to marry her precious daughter to a guard anyway. Now it's just the beginning. Empress Chen has fallen in love with Gao Congxun, the third son of Dingguo Duke's Mansion. Maybe it won't be long before they start preparing for their marriage...

Even if it wasn't Gao Congxun, it could be a son of another family.

I don't know what the final result of Zhao Liuli and Yang Zhen will be.

Wei Luo walked back to the apse, thinking about something, when Li Xiang also walked out from inside. When the two met at the door, Li Xiang tilted his head to look at her with provocative eyes and a little gloating.

Wei Luo frowned, not understanding why she was here, shouldn't she be in the front hall right now? However, there was no time to think about it, Gein Gong'e came over with a red sandalwood gilt plum pattern box, handed it to her and said: "Miss Wei, the ceremony has already begun, you can go to the front hall."

Wei Luo nodded and took the box.

Inside the box was the hairpin that Zhao Liuli was going to add to Jiji this time, which was very similar to the one Zhao Jie gave her, the gold silk butterfly and plum blossom hairpin. She has seen it several times, so this time she didn't open it to take a look, and walked directly to the front hall.

Inside Zhaoyang Hall.

Empress Chen stood in front of the Eight Treasures Glazed Couch, below was Zhao Liuli in plucked clothes, and on both sides were wives and noble ladies who came to attend the ceremony.

Zhao Liuli knelt on the red velvet carpet, folded her hands and bowed to Empress Chen.

There are three steps in the ceremony of hairpin, the first is to add the hairpin, the second is to add the hairpin, and the third is to add the hairpin crown. Wei Luo stood by the side, only waiting for Zhao Liuli's hairpin to be put on after the first addition. Unexpectedly, he opened the box and saw that there were originally two butterflies on the golden silk butterfly hairpin, but now one was missing! There was only one left hanging on the hairpin, and its appearance was greatly reduced.

What about the other butterfly

Wei Luo remembered that it was fine when she came to see it yesterday, but it has been kept in a box today and no one has touched it, so how could one be missing? Such a hairpin should never be worn on Zhao Liuli's head, Empress Chen could tell at a glance. Empress Chen attached so much importance to this ceremony, if she made any mistakes, it would not only humiliate the royal family's face, but also make Empress Chen very dissatisfied with her.

If it wasn't an accident, then who wanted to harm her

Wei Luo thought of Li Xiang who met at the gate of the apse, and raised her eyes to look opposite.

I saw that Li Xiang was also looking at her, with a smile on his face and the corners of his lips raised, as if he was watching a show.

She lowered her eyes, her eyes sank, and she roughly guessed what was going on.

After the initial addition, we just waited for her to come forward and put Zhao Liuli's hairpin on. Mother Qiu cast a glance at her, she settled down, raised her hand, and calmly put the hairpin given to her by Zhao Jie in her sleeve into the box, replacing Zhao Liuli's hairpin. Fortunately, she was standing in an inconspicuous place, and no one noticed what she had just done.

She stepped forward, first bowed to Empress Chen, then got up and half-kneeled in front of Zhao Liuli, took the gold thread butterfly hairpin on red silk and put it in her bun for her.

Zhao Liuli glanced at the hairpin, opened her eyes wide in astonishment, and said in a low voice, "Ah Luo..."

She hissed softly, got up and walked back to her original position without saying anything.

That hairpin was almost exactly the same as Zhao Liuli's hairpin, except for some subtle differences, there was basically no difference. Empress Chen stood in a high position, so if she didn't look carefully, she wouldn't be able to see it.

When Wei Luo walked back, she met Li Xiang's gaze, and she saw Li Xiang's expression was in disbelief, staring at her angrily and unwillingly, probably unable to figure out why she would conjure up an identical hairpin.

Before the ceremony was over, Wei Luo walked back to the apse, and was about to ask the palace servants inside if they had seen anyone touch the box, but Zhao Jie was standing at the door, and Wu Tong looked at her, obviously he had been waiting for a long time.

Wei Luo paused, but finally walked in front of him.

He looked at the red sandalwood box in her hand, then at her, and asked straight to the point: "Why did you put the hairpin that the king gave you on your Liuli head?"

He did see it.

Is that why you came here to wait for her and ask her for an explanation

Wei Luo didn't want him to misunderstand, so he had to open the box to show him the hairpin inside: "I don't know who broke Liuli's hairpin, and there is one butterfly missing, if I don't use that one to replace it, the Empress will be angry. "
