Tangbao looked at Empress De Fei and was speechless.
Empress De Fei stretched out her hand, revealing her neatly manicured nails.
"Can you, can you paint... on my nails for me?"
It seems that Concubine De has never asked anyone before, and her words are rare and stuttering.
"Of course you can." Tangbao said happily: "What do you want to draw?"
"Draw myself!" Empress De Fei said calmly.
Like the bright moon at the end of the world, a look of aloofness appears on the face like snow lotus on the mountain.
It seemed that only her own portrait was worthy of being painted on her nails.
Tangbao suddenly discovered that what Concubine Shu said was so accurate.
Is this the highest state of narcissism?
Tangbao and Empress De Fei made an appointment.
Empress De Fei left calmly with a temperament that could fly to the nine heavens.
Later, someone sent a box of calligraphy and paintings.
Among them, there are many orphan copies that have become extinct.
Sugar baby: "..."
Is this gift too heavy?
But why does she feel like it's not for her?
Tangbao was staring at a box of calligraphy and paintings in a daze. After receiving the news, Hua Pin, Fang Pin and others also came and asked for the powder.
How many of these pampered women who have grown up are not afraid of snakes and insects?
What's more, the snake disaster in Prince Rong's Mansion has been interpreted in several supernatural and terrifying versions.
"Tangtang, you can't be too unfavorable to one another. We don't compare with the imperial concubines and the others, but after all, we have a close friendship with you. You can't ignore us."
"No! Tangtang, remember back then, we ate melon seeds and drank tea together..."
"That's right..."
Several of the ladies talked in a flurry, fearing that the sugar baby would say that there was no more powder.
Sugar baby: "..."
Tangbao was very straightforward and packed a packet of medicinal powder for each of the ladies, and sent them away happily.
Princess Hua Ning said with a smile: "This is the first time I see that these ladies in the palace all like the same person."
Having said this, a trace of emotion appeared on his face, and he added: "Only Sister Fuya has such ability."
"Sister Ning is wrong." Tangbao said with a smile: "The one that all the ladies in the palace like is not me, but the emperor."
Princess Hua Ning: "..."
It seems so...
But, why do you feel it’s not the case?
She felt that the smiles on the faces of the ladies in the palace when they saw their father were not as real as when they saw Sister Fuya.
Princess Hua Ning suddenly had some doubts. Do these concubines in the palace really like her father?
The sugar baby freshened up and put on a water-red double-breasted jacket with a goose-yellow pleated skirt underneath.
Her black hair was combed into two double spiral buns, and paired with red beads, the whole person looked festive and smart.
Princess Hua Ning is still dressed in red, warm and bright.
The two of them went to the main hall, chatted with the Queen Mother for a while, then supported the Queen Mother on one side and went to the front to attend the court banquet.
As the Queen Mother, she naturally arrived quite late.
Except for the emperor, everyone else attending the banquet has already arrived.
Therefore, when the royal family members, important officials of the court, and their families saw the sugar baby supporting the Queen Mother on the stage, they couldn't help but take a second look.
I had only heard before that the Queen Mother was very fond of a little girl, but now it is confirmed.
"I have met the Queen Mother. She is a thousand years old."
Everyone stood up and saluted.
Sugar Baby glanced at it.
There were quite a lot of men and women.
The tables were all lined up outside the hall.
The man is on the left and the woman is on the right, facing each other.
Sugar baby is very curious.
In wealthy families, it has always been a custom for men and women to have separate seats at the age of seven.
Therefore, when a wealthy family holds a banquet, the men's and women's seats are separated.
Tangbao did not expect that when the emperor entertained guests, men and women would eat together in the same hall.
Naturally, the top position in the middle is the position of the emperor.
Tangbao and Princess Hua Ning supported the Queen Mother and sat at the table next to the Emperor.
You know, this is the seat of the Queen Mother.
The Empress Dowager's agents were the Fourth Concubine, Hua Concubine, Fang Concubine and others.
"Hahaha……"
A sudden laughter suddenly sounded.
Everyone: "..."
Even if he forced himself to endure it and left without turning around, he still knew who was seeking death.
Sugar Baby looked over.
As expected, it was King Chengen.
The Queen Mother also looked over.
King Cheng'en immediately knelt down to apologize and said loudly: "I am so frightened that I have behaved inappropriately in front of the Queen Mother. Please forgive me."
King Cheng'en said he was scared, but the corners of his mouth still turned up uncontrollably.
Sugar baby: "..."
If you say you didn't mean to show off and attract other people's attention, I don't believe it.
The Queen Mother had always been charitable, so she did not blame King Cheng'en. After sitting down, she spoke in a calm voice.
"Everyone, get up."
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
The crowd of men and women straightened up.
"The Emperor has arrived——"
The sound of singing came.
The men and women who had just straightened up quickly saluted the emperor again.
Tangbao also bowed his knees and saluted, but sighed in his heart that it was not easy for these courtiers and royal family members to eat a meal from the emperor.
Emperor Tianxi strode in with a rosy complexion.
"Hahaha……"
The sudden laughter sounded again.
Emperor Tianxi paused.
The corner of Tangbao's mouth twitched.
To be continued...
