Chapter 60: A bandit is a bandit, what a lady!
Gu Qianzhou stepped between the two of them and followed the prince inside.
Su Shuangluo was squeezed aside and gave way. Watching the two of them walking side by side, she clenched her fingertips tightly.
It was the Empress Dowager's 60th birthday. The palace was decorated with lanterns and colorful ribbons, and red ribbons were flying. It was very festive.
Even before the banquet started, it was already very noisy. Not only King Hui, who was far away in Youzhou, returned to Beijing in the name of celebrating his birthday, but the eldest prince and the second prince who were sent to Jiangnan to control floods also rushed back.
At this moment, everyone gathered at the Shouning Palace of the Empress Dowager to wish the Empress Dowager her birthday.
The Empress Dowager looked at her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and granddaughters all gathered together, smiling happily and brightly.
Gu Qianzhou followed Jun Mochen in to celebrate his birthday, and saw many unfamiliar faces. She took a quick glance at them, and then followed Jun Mochen to congratulate the Empress Dowager on his birthday, and then paid greetings to the Emperor, Empress Dowager and Empress.
The Empress Dowager smiled kindly and praised her and said, "Shen's daughter-in-law is becoming more and more famous. It can be seen that the capital's soil and water nurture people."
Gu Qianzhou respectfully thanked him.
The emperor glanced at Gu Qianzhou and said with a smile, "The Marquis of Jing'an is tall and thick, with a ferocious look, but he has given birth to a daughter who is both handsome and smart."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "They say that my daughter is a father-in-law, and daughter-in-law Shen should look more like her mother."
After being praised by the emperor and the empress dowager, everyone in the room looked at Gu Qianzhou.
King Hui is the only half-brother of the emperor who is still alive. He looks much younger than the emperor, he is feminine and fair, and looks very gentle.
He looked at Gu Qianzhou and smiled, his smile was like a spring breeze.
The eldest prince and the second prince only knew that the ninth brother was married to a bandit princess. Looking at the bright, beautiful and shining woman in front of them, they could not associate her with the word bandit.
Both of their eyes looked at and explored with surprise.
Princess Xiujing stood next to the Empress Dowager and said with a smile, "I heard that Mrs. Gu was also born in a wealthy family. She is a rare lady of the family. The ninth sister-in-law is like her mother, so she is naturally unparalleled in her grace."
Princess Fukang on the side snorted coldly, "Bandits are just bandits, what a lady!"
Princess Fukang is the daughter of an empress, and she has always been coquettish and domineering.
Princess Xiujing smiled and stopped talking.
The Queen Mother and the Empress looked at Gu Qianzhou with eyes like knives hidden in their eyes, expressing contempt and disgust.
The last time I was beaten with a cane, I was on the verge of death and bleeding. How long has it been, but it seems like nothing happened!
Bandits are bandits, they have a very low life, and even wearing gold and silver cannot change their despicable and bad nature!
No matter whether he praised or slandered, Jun Mochen acted as if it had nothing to do with him, and presented the birthday gift to the Queen Mother, which was a pot of red coral.
It is half a person tall, shining and very beautiful.
The Empress Dowager liked it very much and said with a loving smile, "Shen'er is very interested. The Ai family is old and likes to see these beautiful things!"
Gu Qianzhou looked at the red coral in front of him, and then at the dazzling array of precious gifts over there. He was a little confused for a while about whether to take out his plaster.
While he was struggling, the emperor stood up and said, "The banquet has almost begun. Please ask the imperial grandmother to move to the imperial garden."
The Empress Dowager nodded, supported Princess Xiujing's hand and stood up.
So a crowd of people gathered around the Empress Dowager and walked outside.
