187, deja vu
In this way, the queen took Gu Qianxue's hand, and condoled all the officials and women's families. Although the condolence time was long or short, she took care of them one by one. Gu Qianxue didn't know if the queen was tired, but her neck was already very tired. sour.
Finally, after a whole mess, the queen took Gu Qianxue's hand and returned to her seat, and then announced that the banquet had begun.
Immediately afterwards, the maids came in like a file, holding delicious food and wine in their hands. When they were delivered to the female relatives, they were served by the maids who were specially serving them.
Under the performance of court musicians, when the dishes and delicacies are almost served, dancers come in and dance lightly.
The female relatives tasted the delicacies, chatted with the people around them first, and glanced at the empress and prince who was upright from time to time, which was considered busy.
Gu Qianxue felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, but her face had to be full of smiles.
"I heard that your mother is pregnant?" The queen asked softly, "Physician Ma said that he is a young master. I am really happy for you two. How is your mother?"
"Thank you, Empress, for your concern. Thanks to your blessing, my mother is in good health." Gu Qianxue replied respectfully.
"It's been rumored that you cured Concubine Qin's illness, and you are good at medicine?" The queen pinched a piece of pastry and bit a small piece in her mouth.
Gu Qianxue replied, "Going back to the Empress, the daughter of the people has read a few medical books before, and she understands a little bit of medical principles, but she really doesn't have any medical skills. As for the Empress Qin, I did try to diagnose and treat her, but I couldn't see it. What kind of illness did the empress have, and she recovered inexplicably in the end, and the daughter of the people is also at a loss."
Gu Qianxue did not deny her medical skills. Although no one saw the healing process, she went to Prince Li's mansion every day and did massage for Concubine Qin. It was obvious to all, and she couldn't hide it.
The queen smiled, but she didn't believe that Gu Qianxue knew medical skills before getting into the topic.
"I heard that you won the first prize in the Bilin Lake Fighting Art Competition with a picture of the Bilin Lake Fighting Art, but it's a pity that I didn't see it with my own eyes. It's a pity." The queen said.
When the prince heard the empress mentioning the Bilin Lake Douyi Conference, and remembered the paintings hanging in Haolan Academy, he finally couldn't help but look back at Gu Qianxue.
I saw that the woman in the pink dress was slightly powdered, sitting respectfully beside the queen, nodding her head and lowering her eyebrows. Between the drooping black hair and the pink collar, a small section of jade neck was exposed, which was like a tender lotus root, which provoked a lot of excitement. people pity.
"Back to the Empress, the painting skills of civilian girls are average, and they are only superior in the novelty of painting. It is a fluke to win the first prize." Gu Qianxue's answer was neither humble nor overbearing, without any sense of slipperiness, only sincere.
The prince couldn't help but look at the woman's back for a while, her figure was as slim as a fresh bamboo just plucked after rain, and her posture was as light as a willow branch by the lake.
"Oh? Go back and paint a portrait of Ben Gong?" the queen asked with a smile.
Gu Qianxue nodded, "Yes, when the empress has time, I summoned the minnv, and the minnv immediately came to take a portrait of the empress."
The queen seemed very happy, and stretched out her long fingers with armor, "Okay, I will draw a picture for Yao'er later." Pointing at the crown prince behind Gu Qianxue.
Gu Qianxue didn't realize who "Yao'er" was for a while, she followed the queen's fingers and looked over, and was shocked when she saw herself sitting next to the prince at some time!
The crown prince Ling Yao also looked at Gu Qianxue, and the two looked at each other.
I saw that the prince's brows were slightly frowned, because he only felt that the eyes in front of him were very familiar, but he didn't know where he had seen them before.
Those eyes were neither too big nor too small, neither charming nor handsome. To be fair, they were only above average, but what was different was that there was wisdom in those bright eyes.
It's not the kind of sharpness with attacking sharpness, nor is it shy and soft like autumn water, but the kind of wisdom that seems to be able to control one's own destiny, as if it has strong perseverance.
Where have you seen it
Surprised, Gu Qianxue hastily smiled politely at the prince, then turned around and continued to reply to the Queen's words, as if the person sitting next to him was a passer-by, rather than the most valuable bachelor in the entire Nanyue Kingdom.
Seeing Gu Qianxue's reaction, the queen was even more puzzled—why there was a huge gap between Gu Qianxue and the reports of the previous subordinates. According to the previous information, Gu Qianxue should be mediocre, frivolous and vain.
"What books have you read?" the queen asked.
"Back to the empress, the daughter of the people has never read orthodox books, but read some medical books." Gu Qianxue said truthfully.
The queen smiled, "It seems that you are very interested in medical skills, who did you learn from?"
Gu Qianxue's heart was dripping with sweat. She didn't have a master in Nanyue Country. "When I was a child, I learned some characters with Mr. Fuzhong. Later, I read medical books by myself. I didn't study it systematically. It was just a hobby."
The queen's smile faded a little, and there was suspicion in her eyes, "Oh? You dare to treat Concubine Qin by flipping through medical books at will?"
Gu Qianxue smiled wryly, "Going back to your mother, the min daughters dare not, but His Royal Highness Li Wang forced the min women to heal the concubine Qin's concubine. The figure of a woman."
Gu Qianxue's words amused the queen, "It seems that you have no other choice?"
"Otherwise, how dare the daughter of the people treat the concubine Qin's illness after these two actions?" Gu Qianxue gritted her teeth at the mention of Li Wang's palace abuse, with the hatred in her eyes that she couldn't help.
"If you calculate carefully, you and this palace are still related, and my niece and you are sisters." The empress deliberately skipped the identity of Aunt Pei, fearing that even the empress would not be able to pass the threshold of a concubine's concubine. .
The queen threw an olive branch, and someone else might just climb up.
"It's the Empress who loves you." Unfortunately, Gu Qianxue didn't want to climb because she knew that she was forced to hug Concubine Qin's thigh.
The queen's eyes turned cold.
The prince on the side looked curiously at this neither humble nor overbearing woman, and couldn't help recalling those wise eyes, where did he see them.
Under the table, Princess Anran almost overturned the table!
"Bitch, that bitch dared to seduce His Highness the Crown Prince!" Princess Anran almost shouted, but fortunately Gu Qianrou stopped her.
"Sister An Ran, keep your voice down, walls have ears!" Gu Qianrou turned pale and looked around vigilantly. Fortunately, the people around were listening to music, enjoying dancing, or chatting.
"Slut! Slut! Why didn't the Princess whip her to death last time?" Princess An Ran trembled all over, holding the whip handle in her hand.
Yeah, why didn't you beat her to death last time? Gu Qianrou also asked in her heart, "Sister Anran, do you remember what I just said? My mother called me, I have to go, we will talk later." Gu Qianrou's patience was exhausted.
"Well, let's go." Princess An Ran was still angry, and casually waved her hands as a greeting.
Gu Qianrou was so angry that her seven orifices were filled with smoke, and she returned to her seat, almost throwing the bowl. "I'm so pissed off, that idiot, I'm so pissed off!"
