However, Jiang Qingxue, who had been cold-faced throughout the banquet, finally smiled after hearing this, Wu Sheyue, your death has come!
The displeasure on the Queen Mother's face was very obvious, "But hasn't she gotten better recently? Ask her to come out and show the Ai family. The Ai family has never seen birthmarks washed away, nor has they seen a wooden bird fly."
Liu Yun and Xin Yue had told her a lot, and she had to see what this person was like!
Wu Sheyue stood up resignedly. It seemed that she could not escape from kneeling. She left her seat and came to the main hall, knelt down and said, "My maid pays homage to the emperor, pays homage to the queen mother Qian Sui, and pays homage to the empress."
Now not only Wu Liuyun was happy, but Wu Jinghua and Wu Lixiang were also secretly gloating. This Wu Sheyue has tormented them too many times, and he is finally going to see her deflate!
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and looked at the girl below and asked, "Really the Prime Minister's daughter? Then why are you wearing a veil?"
Before Wu Sheyue could speak, Wu Liuyun said regretfully: "The Queen Mother, Liuyun's third sister had a rash some time ago, so..."
I heard it was a rash? There was an uproar all around. The ladies were extremely nervous. Someone among them had just come into contact with her in the imperial garden! Why didn't they consider that wearing a veil caused rash before
Seeing that everyone was panicking, Wu Liuyun secretly laughed, pulling out the enemy and making her look embarrassed was what she was best at.
The emperor was slightly angry and said: "Witch Prime! Why bring someone to the palace if he is sick?"
Jiang Ying also popped up at the right time to interject: "It's really imprudent for Miss Wu San to come to the banquet today. Aren't all rashes contagious? There are so many concubines and princes in the palace. If they accidentally get infected... "
Although Jiang Ying was targeting Wu Sheyue, she also offended Wu Hantian. Holding back his anger, Wu Hantian immediately stood up and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I asked her to go back immediately—"
"Your Majesty, it's not a rash that I have." Wu Sheyue interrupted Wu Hantian. She straightened up, looked directly into the emperor's eyes and said clearly: "I may have been exposed to too much pollen some time ago, and there are some spots on my face. I feel uncomfortable. Although I’m already feeling better, I’m afraid that there will be a lot of flowers at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, so I’m afraid of causing discomfort again, so I’m wearing a veil.”
Jiang Qingxue was stunned, how could it be possible that she had recovered a long time ago? Even if she got the peach blossom moss and had her hair and face changed immediately, she couldn't get better that quickly! The potency of that medicine... She felt nervous, could it be...
Several concubines commented: "Is that probably just tinea versicolor?"
"If there are no red spots, it's not even ringworm."
"What kind of disease is this..."
"that is… "
The emperor heard the words of the concubines, frowned, looked at Wu Hantian carefully, and seemed to blame him: "Wu Xiang, why don't you, a father, know what disease your daughter has?"
"I have neglected my family affairs too much..." Wu Hantian lowered his head to accept the scolding, and at the same time he was even more angry and displeased. Wu Liuyun was really looking for trouble for him today.
The Queen Mother said to Wu Sheyue: "Okay, then just pick it and show it to the Ai family."
"Yes." Wu Sheyue reached out and took off the veil.
Wu Liuyun stared at Wu Sheyue's face with wide eyes, and Wu Lixiang leaned forward nervously.
Wu Sheyue put away her veil and looked up at the Queen Mother. That face was smooth and tender. Not only did it have no rash, it also looked better than before.
Wu Lixiang fell back into her seat, this... this shouldn't be the case! How could Wu Sheyue's face be good? How could she be the only one suffering from ringworm!
Discussions started quietly. It was rumored that after Miss Wu San recovered from her madness, her beauty could surpass that of Wu Liuyun, who was ranked number one in Long Fu, and her talent could compete with that of the young prince. When I saw it today, it was truly an unparalleled look!
Jiang Ying and other women were very surprised. This was different from what Wu Liuyun said before!
Xin Yu looked at Wu Sheyue's side face in astonishment. When he saw her in the Royal Garden before, he thought the person with these eyes must be beautiful, but he didn't expect to be so beautiful.
He thought this, and then shook his head again. No matter how beautiful a beauty is, she can only be their tool.
In addition, the other person who was dumbfounded was Xin Zhi. He had been looking for someone since Wu Sheyue was mentioned, until she took off the veil... Xin Zhi realized that he was right in wanting to marry someone back! It would be a great thing in life to have these little beauties in your own backyard and play together!
The queen said to the emperor: "You see, all the daughters of the Wu family are outstanding. The witch prime minister is really lucky."
The Queen Mother looked at Wu Sheyue and sighed in amazement: "That's right. If you hadn't said that this face had been ugly before, the Ai family would have thought that they were so beautiful since they were born. But God has eyes, and nothing was wasted. Yes."
I had heard those two girls from Liuyun talking about Wu Sheyue in a somewhat demonic way, but today when I saw the real person, there was nothing wrong with her. Do we need more observations to make a conclusion
Wu Liuyun heard the Queen Mother's words clearly, and he squeezed his palms in anger, his nails digging into his flesh and it hurt. How, how come this, not only did she not make a fool of herself, but it also... No, no, shouldn't she be the most outstanding person in the Prime Minister's Mansion and the entire Longfu! What does it have to do with this ugly monster!
Yu Jing sipped her wine, glanced at the women beside and behind Wu Hantian with her slender eyes, and suddenly smiled. Thinking of Wu Sheyue's betrayal with him before, that's what he meant...
Although Wu Jinghua was also resentful that Wu Sheyue's face was fine, she paid more attention to Yu Jing's every move. She was pleasantly surprised to find that Yu Jing glanced here and then laughed.
The dissatisfaction in Wu Jinghua's heart was swept away, and a touch of red appeared on his cheeks. Who was he looking at? Is it possible that it's me? With this in mind, Wu Jinghua straightened his clothes and sat upright.

Listening to the praises below, although the emperor felt that Wu Sheyue liked him more than he thought, there were still some things he wanted to ask.
Wu Sheyue always remembered what Yu Jing said, so when the emperor really looked at her, she couldn't help but feel excited - I must prepare to avenge his son!
Therefore, just when the emperor was about to open his mouth to speak, Wu Sheyue immediately said, "I happen to have a gift from the Hundred Flowers Banquet that I want to present."
Anyway, she has already stood up, and that thing will be given away sooner or later. Maybe she will take it out first to make the emperor happy, and then she can feel more relaxed when talking about Xin Zhi's injury.
"Really?" The emperor was not angry at being robbed. He thought the little girl was a little funny. "Then you can present her."
In this way, Wu Sheyue became the first person after the prince to present a gift.
The Queen Mother was still thinking about the flying wooden bird, so she asked: "But the wooden sculpture? A bird or an animal?"
"My daughter has nothing to offer, she only painted a picture to express her feelings." Wu Sheyue said, turning back and waving her hand to Ning'er.
The Queen Mother lost interest as soon as she heard this. She was old and just wanted to see some novel things - such as flying wooden birds. It would be boring if it were a painting. She had never seen calligraphy and painting by famous artists, so how could the paintings survive...
Could it be that Wu Sheyue didn't care about her and didn't want to make things with her heart? The Queen Mother became cold when she thought about it. If she was really perfunctory, then Wu Sheyue would not think about it anymore.
Wu Liuyun frowned in worry. Although Wu Sheyue's frame had been taken away by her, there must be no frame for the new painting. It couldn't be something too good.
But she... just can't let go now. This Wu Sheyue has an evil nature and can always cause trouble.
Ning'er stood up and brought over a roll of cloth that had been prepared. The emperor was surprised and said: "What is this."
Many people are also curious, even if the painting is painted on canvas, such a thick roll... how long does it have to be? Maybe it’s really a special long scroll
Wu Sheyue held the scroll in her hand and said: "I would also like to ask the emperor to lend me two guards and two ladders to help me unfold the canvas. In addition, I need a few maids and sisters to help turn out the lights. My paintings cannot be viewed in places with light." "
Many people laughed when she said this. Jiang Ying said coquettishly to the Queen Mother: "What painting cannot be seen in the daytime? Could it be that it depicts a ghost? Queen Mother, why don't we stop looking at it? It's just a waste of time..." As she said this, she even shrank.
"How can we see without light? We are not night owls."
"It's just~ It shouldn't be something scary, right?"
Jiang Ying started like this, so naturally the little followers responded one after another.
Wu Sheyue raised the corners of her lips slightly, "This palace hall is really too big, how can it be completely blocked. As long as there is no light near the painting. Miss Jiang doesn't have to think so much."
Jiang Ying snorted, wondering if Wu Sheyue could change the world.
The emperor thought it was interesting. He nodded, and then several maids came over immediately. Wu Sheyue whispered a few words to them and pointed to a few places, and the maids went down.
The eunuch ran to the door and was about to call the guards when Han Yi suddenly stood up and said, "Oh, don't bother. You have to move the ladder to call the guards. I'll do it."
He had already seen Wu Sheyue's craftsmanship once, so this time he felt itchy and curious, so he had to get closer and take a look.
Everyone was surprised when they saw that Prince Han was willing to deign to help a concubine. Even the Queen Mother looked at him twice.
Many girls felt sorry in their hearts, wondering if Prince Han was interested in this girl from the Wu family, right
Wu Sheyue was a little hesitant. After all, she and Han Yi were not friends, and she didn't trust this person yet. But Han Yi walked forward with a smile and took (grabbed) the cloth roll from Wu Sheyue's hand. He shook it in his hand, guessing that he couldn't figure out the length and size, so he turned around and called Yu Jing: "Hey, you should come over and help me."
Yu Jing glanced at him and said nothing, just stood up silently. (To be continued)
