Cai Xiaolian explained: "Your father has won the emperor's favor. Besides, the emperor has not seen you for a long time and wants to see you."

Gu Xin \u0026 Gu Hui: "?"

Cai Xiaolian said: "Your father became the number one scholar, and then he realized that our current emperor is your Uncle Ye!"

Gu Xin: "!"

Gu Hui was also a little surprised.

When the two sisters think about it, the emperor always has the image of a majestic grandfather, but how can Uncle Ye be a fool like his uncle (father)?

Gu Xin slapped her head: "No wonder, the county magistrate was frightened when he saw the jade pendants that Uncle Ye gave to me and Brother Yuanyuan! It turns out that Uncle Ye is the emperor!"

Cai Xiaolian looked at Gu Xin helplessly and said, "Don't call me Uncle Ye next time you see me. If he doesn't talk about you, the people around him will say you are unruly. I have prepared clothes for you two sisters to wear at the banquet. Come and try it!”

Gu Hui: "Second aunt, can't you wear men's clothes?"

Cai Xiaolian said firmly: "No!"

The next day, Gu Xin and Gu Hui went to find Huo Yanyu and asked what they usually need to pay attention to at these banquets.

Huo Yanyu said with a look of disgust: "Sister Huihui, Sister Xinxin, let me tell you, the first king of Xingnan Kingdom was a civil servant of the previous dynasty. He married the only daughter of a military general's family, and finally he was able to He calls himself the king in the north. He prides himself on being smart and comes up with all kinds of strange questions. He often comes to our Zhou Dynasty for advice. He often loses. This year, he will definitely compete with this. Moreover, they I am particularly good at picking people. I have picked my brother before, but I was stumped by him. This year I will probably pick the second uncle Gu. Here comes another princess, who looks to be the same age as us. Sister Xinxin, you are the top pick again. My daughter is probably looking for you!"

Gu Xin: "...Are there any more questions? What kind of questions are they?"

Huo Yanyu said: "There are some weird math questions. But don't worry, Sister Xinxin, the questions from Sister Niannian are much more difficult than those from Xingnan Kingdom, so you'll be fine."

Gu Xin felt confident after hearing this: "That's right! Then I'm not afraid anymore. My sister even said I'm very powerful! Can I test her instead?"

Huo Yanyu nodded: "Of course! If you embarrass him, the emperor will definitely reward you greatly when he is happy, and maybe he will like Second Uncle Gu even more."

Gu Xin rolled his eyes and had an idea in his mind.

When it was time for the banquet, Gu Xin dressed up energetically, combed her hair, and followed her into the palace.

She had never been to the palace before, and she felt that the house she had seen in her dream was the best. Only when she entered the palace did she realize that she was wrong. The house in her dream was good, but it really couldn't compare with the palace.

The palace is so big!

She didn't look around, but looked straight ahead, taking in the scenery.

It’s not like they are not alone, Mrs. Huo and Mrs. Huo are taking them with them, so they are not afraid of making mistakes.

Mrs. Huo is Huo Yanyu's eldest aunt and the wife of the prime minister. She has been in contact with Cai Xiaolian several times. She does not look down upon this newly promoted first lady, but she is not very familiar with her.

Cai Xiaolian can see that Mrs. Prime Minister has such a personality, just like Grandma Gu. She treats everyone the same. Only by looking closely can you find out whether she likes to play with you or not.

Only a prince and a princess came from the other party. Neither the Queen Mother nor Queen Mother Jiang came forward. Queen Xue led the married woman to the banquet.

Cai Xiaolian was quite curious about Queen Xue and wanted to see what the out-of-touch Queen of the Emperor's family was like.
