Chapter 7 — On the big wedding day, my husband ignored me and personally carried my pregnant sister to the palanquin.

Everyone quietly took a few steps away from her. I'm afraid that if I get involved even a little bit, I'll be implicated. At that moment, the awkward atmosphere was tense to the extreme. A leisurely, noble voice suddenly rang out from not far away.

"What's so bustling about?"

Everyone who heard the sound turned their heads to look, then knelt down to worship.

"Seeing the Queen, wishing you a long and prosperous life."

I also turned around. I only saw the Queen surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, slowly walking towards her. Today she is wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe. On his head, he wears nine phoenix tides. Sophisticated makeup. Her demeanor is leisurely and dignified, worthy of being a mother of the world. There was still a gentle, dignified smile on his lips. In those beautiful phoenix eyes, a cold ray flashed and fell straight on me. She's here. The real main dish of this Hong Mon feast. Finally on the floor. The Queen walked over and sat down on the chair, gently raising her hand.

"Everyone stand up, no need to be polite."

Her eyes swept across the whole school, finally landing on me, her smile became even more gentle and friendly.

"This person must be Tinh Vuong Phi, right?"

"Indeed, a hundred hearings are better than seeing one, what a delicate and worldly child."

I gently bowed my knees to worship.

"I am Qin Shu, I pay my respects to the Queen."

"Quickly stand up."

She reached out her hand to help a little.

"We're all family, no need to be so polite."

She grabbed my hand, pulled me to sit next to her, her gesture was intimate as if we were truly mother and daughter.

"This palace heard that a few days ago in the palace there was an incomprehensible servant who came to Tinh Vuong Palace to bother you."

"Don't worry, that servant has been severely punished."

"Don't take it to heart."

Her words were so discreet that they were impeccable. While showing his generosity, he gently dismissed the incident that day, as if it were just a misunderstanding caused by a subordinate who did not understand the situation. The ladies present naturally simultaneously praised the Queen for her kindness and generosity. I just smiled faintly and did not respond. She appeared even more peaceful. Then the tricks waiting for us behind will be even more cruel. Of course that's true. After jubilant singing and dancing, the alcohol passed for three weeks. The Queen gently clapped her hands, signaling the musicians to stop.

"Today the autumn sky is clear and blue, chrysanthemums are blooming brilliantly, just drinking wine and watching dancing is a bit boring."

"This palace heard that the ladies and gentlemen present today are all talented beyond everyone else. How about using 'autumn chrysanthemum' as the topic, each showing off a talent to entertain the banquet? How do you feel?"

This is the first trap she prepared for me. From a young age, the noble ladies in the capital were skilled in piano, chess, poetry, and drawing. In everyone's eyes, she was just an orphan girl from the countryside who came to take refuge in the Co family's palace. Even if she later becomes Tinh Vuong Phi, she is still just a sparrow flying on a high branch, her personality is still not qualified to step up to the elegant place. She wanted to make me lose face in front of all the nobles in the capital. Let me, this Princess Tinh, become a laughing stock. Immediately, several noble ladies stood up to respond.

"The Queen's proposal Your Highness is so nice."

"It's such a gentlemanly thing, the nymph would like to dance the ax over the eye of the craftsman first."

Ly Yen Nhien had now completely calmed down after her previous fear, and was the first to step out. Perhaps she wanted to take this opportunity to regain some dignity. She walked into the middle of the yard and plucked a piece of ancient art. The sound of the instrument is fluent and the technique is quite mature, immediately receiving a lot of praise. Next, a few more young ladies stepped out one after another, some drawing pictures, some reciting poems. Although there is nothing too amazing, it is all appropriate and worthy of their status as noble ladies. The atmosphere gradually became bustling. Everyone's eyes seemed to be directed towards me. Let's wait and see how we will respond. The smile on the Queen's face also grew stronger. She raised the teacup and took a sip, as if completely oblivious to the situation on our side. But in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, there was a hint of satisfaction, waiting to see a good show. Finally it's our turn. Without waiting for the Queen to speak, the Minister of Military Affairs' wife, who is also Ly Yen Nhien's mother, smiled and spoke up.

"I've long heard that Princess Tinh is smarter than others. Surely her talent is also outstanding. How about inviting Princess Tinh to perform a performance for everyone to enjoy?"

This female couple really hasn't given up yet.
