After all the maids and eunuchs of Fengli Palace lined up and An Nuanzhi was helped out of the palace to receive the order, the chief eunuch read out loudly.

"By God's blessing, the emperor has decreed that the annual Holy Festival is coming, and the harem is celebrating. The emperor is hosting a banquet for 999 distinguished guests from all over the world. The queen must attend in her best attire, accompanying her left queen, as a motherly gift to the world.

.”

"I accept the order and thank the Lord for your kindness." An Nuanzhi knelt on the ground with no expression. Didn't Lannianan not trust her? Why would he let her participate in the Holy Festival? It's ridiculous or not, she lost what she wanted so much.

My child, why are you in the mood to participate in the Holy Festival?

Speaking of the Holy Festival, it is similar to the modern National Day. It is a very important celebration. On this day, the whole country and the palace must celebrate. The emperor and the queen need to fast for three days, and they also need to wear white clothes with gold rims to go to the palace for the last time.

It is a very important and very luxurious and dreamy event to go to the sacred platform in a mysterious place to worship ancestors and immortals, and to pray for peace and prosperity for the country and the people in the coming year.

After receiving this imperial edict, Linghua seemed quite happy. After all, this was a good opportunity. Firstly, they could relax their mood, and secondly, they could ease their relationship with the emperor...

But An Nuanzhi thought exactly the opposite. She knelt there and still did not receive the order, which made the manager who announced the edict feel a little upset.

The relationship between the Emperor and the Empress has been very fragile and sensitive recently. Is the Empress planning to...

The scene suddenly fell into a stalemate, but not accepting the imperial edict was a serious crime. If word spread that it would be very detrimental to the royal family's face, Lannian An would be furious, and An Nuanzhi would be even more likely to be thrown into the cold palace.

Fortunately, Forsythia arrived in time and persuaded An Nuanzhi to accept the imperial edict. Before the eunuch in charge returned, Ruyi ran over and gave him a few pieces of silver to seal the seal, so the matter was suppressed and did not become a big deal.

"Your Majesty, listen to my slave's advice. If the child is aborted, it can be reborn. It would be terrible if she really loses her identity as a queen in the harem..." Forsythia felt very uncomfortable when she saw An Nuanzhi like this. She didn't expect to have a good relationship.

People have become like this.

An Nuanzhi was silent. Maybe she couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart. After all, that child was what she wanted very much. Losing the baby hurt her more than anyone else.

Seeing that An Nuanzhi was silent, Forsythia knew that she was still aggrieved, so she stopped trying to persuade her and gave her maid a wink, who then brought something over.

"Empress, someone asked me to send this to you." Forsythia put her hand next to An Nuanzhi, and she left without saying anything.

An Nuanzhi actually didn't want to look at it, but the thing was very heavy, bulging and wrapped in a large piece of silk, so she couldn't help but glance at it, but as soon as she saw it, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Because a little hand poked out from the silk, and then came Little Cake's baby face with big eyes. The cute little face was invincible, much like a cute bun.

"Dangdang, mother, are you surprised to receive this gift?" Little Cake's innocent smile bloomed, and he shook his head handsomely as he spoke, as if he was as energetic as he should be at his age.

An Nuanzhi couldn't bear it anymore. She hugged her son and burst into tears. She thought of the dead baby in her belly. She felt that she had failed as a mother...

At this time, the little cake pouted dissatisfiedly, "An Nuanzhi, please pay attention to your image. You are the mother of the country, why do you leave snot on my body? Hey! How do you treat your own child?"

"You nonsense little guy, a villain!" An Nuanzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She wiped away her tears and flicked Little Cake's forehead. Looking at this handsome face, 80% of her genes were inherited from her.

"Cut!" Little Cake touched his forehead and rolled his eyes, "If you can't tell me, I'll use violence. An Nuanzhi, I'm still not your biological flesh and blood!"

An Nuanzhi was speechless. When did this little man have such a powerful mouth? He spoke in one way and had a cool expression. If he were born in modern times, he would definitely be a little celebrity. He would be so obsessed with the Internet.

Big fan.

Because of the small cake, An Nuanzhi felt that her mood had improved a lot. At least she was no longer as depressed and sad as before, and she could think about problems normally.

She played with the little cake for a while and let Ruyi send her back to the palace. She went to bed early. Although the knot in her heart was still not resolved, it was much better than before.

Indeed, thinking about it now, she was really stupid. Although she lost a child, she still had a little cake. Although Lan Nian'an broke her heart, she did not live for him alone. She still had many things.

There are many responsibilities, including the very important and difficult task of gaining the goodwill of the ministers and allowing Little Cake to successfully assume the position of prince.

This was her previous bet with Lan Nian'an. If she lost this bet, she would probably lose everything, and even the little cake, so how could she be so depressed now? Her battle had just begun... She

We must overcome all hardships and persevere...

For herself, for the little cake, for everyone who loves her and the people she loves.

With this belief, An Nuanzhi regained her fighting power. She made an exception and began to eat, take care of her skin, and enrich herself. She wanted to appear in the best condition on the Holy Festival and surprise everyone who thought she had given up!

Before dawn on the Holy Festival, An Nuanzhi was dragged by Ruyi and Linghua to the mirror and started dressing up. Ruyi said comfortingly while combing An Nuanzhi's long, silky hair that made others envious.

"Your Majesty, since the Emperor wants you to attend the grand event as the mother of the country, he must still think about the relationship between husband and wife. If you dress up more beautifully, maybe the Emperor will change his mind again!" Ruyi's thoughts were very simple. She saw that An Nuanzhi had not recovered recently.

Young Master, knowing that his wife has figured it out, naturally hopes that they will reconcile quickly.

"Yes, your Majesty, if the Emperor is happy and is blessed by your Majesty, your Majesty will be pregnant with a little prince or a little princess, and our Fengli Palace will have more laughter!" Linghua's mind is relatively simple, so these words

She blurted out, and after she finished speaking, she felt something was wrong and covered her mouth. Why was she so stupid that she didn't open a certain pot? Ruyi also gave her a wink to tell her to pay attention to her wording.

An Nuanzhi's expression was very calm. She felt that her heart was strong enough to face anything and any language. She silently looked at herself in the mirror. Although she had eaten, rested and taken care of herself on time these past few days, the pale and thin figure in the mirror was still there.

Is she still a woman? She suddenly doesn't recognize herself.

Her cheeks were originally small and slap-shaped, but now her skinny cheeks had no flesh left, only her high cheekbones and big, sad eyes that took up almost half of her face.

She had never stared at her eyes so seriously. She didn't know whether it was because she had lost a lot of weight or for other reasons. She actually found that her eyes had slowly changed color, and the middle pupil tended to become lighter and golden. Speaking of which,

It is very similar to the transparent brown color of amber, more like the effect of wearing contact lenses in modern times.

It doesn't matter that the pupils changed color. An Nuanzhi's whole temperament has undergone a huge change. Before, her temperament was bright and light, with a lively and healthy feeling. But now I feel pity for her, she is as graceful as a fairy, very

She has charm, let's put it this way, if someone stares at her for a whole day, they won't feel monotonous. The soul-stirring beauty emanating from her thin body is beyond words.

"Mother, do you think this makeup is okay?" While An Nuanzhi was lost in thought, Ruyi had already finished painting her.

I have to say that Ruyi’s makeup skills are getting more and more amazing. In fact, the best makeup is not to make people look very delicate and rich, but to make them look better than no makeup. To put it bluntly, the existence of makeup is to serve as a foil. If it is too thick,

Otherwise, it will overwhelm the guest.

The beauty in the mirror is obviously more fairy-like than before. The little bit of red on her cheeks shows that her bright eyes are more elegant and elegant, but in contrast, she is still a bit haggard and pale.

"Do you have any ink pens?"

"Yes." Ruyi and Linghua were both stunned, not knowing what An Nuanzhi needed Zhubi for.

Ruyi handed it over, and An Nuanzhi picked up the ink pen. She pressed her wrist gently, and several four-petal heart-shaped patterns appeared at the corners of her eyes and cheeks. At first glance, they looked like a few drops of red tears, but their complexion was obviously different from before.

It's much better, and it also covers the dark circles under my eyes that have appeared due to crying in the past few days.

Ruyi and Linghua were both surprised. They secretly exclaimed how beautiful it was! So beautiful! It was so beautiful that it took your breath away, and it was so beautiful that you couldn't find words to express it.

Linghua Xin said bluntly, "My Lady, what is the four-petal peach heart shape pattern you drew?"

An Nuanzhi put down the ink pen, looked at the beauty in the mirror, and said with satisfaction, "This is a four-leaf clover, which means happiness in our hometown. Happiness is something you strive for. From now on, I have decided to be myself again."

.”

Ruyi and Linghua both sighed secretly again. Their empress was really a woman that people couldn't help but admire. Such courage and calmness were unmatched by any woman. It can be seen that their empress had experienced the loss of her son.

After the pain, they became stronger and more mature. They seemed to have seen that their empress had taken back what was theirs...

…

An Nuanzhi appeared in the main hall with other people's astonished eyes on her. The moment everyone saw her, they seemed to be possessed by a demon, staring at her blankly for a long time.

There is a kind of stunning beauty in An Nuanzhi. Such beauty is so breathtaking that it can no longer be blasphemed with mortal words.
