Chapter Seventy-One: A Dance
Luo Qianqian explained his intentions, and it was now close to the time agreed between Concubine Jia and Yan Ji in the letter.
Lin Ye was originally responsible for this matter, but Lin Ye was sent to protect the queen, and Luo Qianqian had no choice but to come to Xiao Cheng.
"Lin Ye's subordinates didn't deliver me the news, I want to ask if they are looking for you?"
How did Xiao Cheng also shake his head, he gave Luo Qianqian a look, indicating that it was not easy to talk here.
The two came to a secluded place, and Xiao Cheng spoke: "Yan Ji has been caught by my people now, and has been pressed to Kaifeng Mansion to be imprisoned, and Concubine Jia is estimated to have gotten the news now." ”
Luo looked at Xiao Cheng lightly but vigilantly, and asked, "Did you really send Yan Ji to Kaifeng Mansion?"
The killer she caught last time, the wind, and the delicate man who was hiding in the yard, are all gone.
Xiao Cheng saw that someone was looking here, so he quietly moved his position, blocking Luo Qian's cold face.
"I took her in public, and she's pregnant, where can I get her?"
Luo Qianqian still glanced at him distrustfully, and said, "You'd better not lie to me about the concubine." ”
After speaking, Luo Qianqian sat back at the banquet.
Xiao Cheng looked at the slightly affectionate face, sighed helplessly, but there was a hidden smile in the slightly raised peach blossom eyes.
He has been with Luo Qianqian for so many days, and he has long understood her character, the more she cares, the more she pretends not to care, but in fact, her heart has become very twisted.
Don't look at him talking partially to help Mu Sen today, she didn't care about it on the surface, but in fact, she was angry because of this matter, but she didn't say a word in front of him.
Xiao Cheng has lived for so many years, and he has seen so many women, gentle and pungent, he has seen all the saints of foreign lands, but he has never seen Luo Qianqian like this.
By the time he took his seat, the table had already begun to bustle.
Luo Binyang took out a sandalwood box, walked over and presented it to the old lady, and the handsome face of the wine was slightly red in the candlelight.
He explained: "Grandmother, my grandson has not served by your side for a long time, Your Majesty is kind, and specially asked our brothers to return to Beijing before your birthday banquet. ”
"Good, good. The old lady took the sandalwood box, with a pleased smile on her face, and when she opened the box, she saw that it was a Buddha statue carved from jade.
The Buddha statue is lifelike, and the expression is gentle like a real Buddha.
She nodded again and again, "Yes, Yang'er, He'er, you bothered." ”
Princess Shang Cheng sat a little closer, saw the palm-sized Buddha statue carved by jade, and immediately praised: "It is such a big jade Buddha, or a high-quality blood jade." ”
"Blood Jade?" one person was shocked, "It is rumored that Blood Jade is a living creature, and it has the effect of warding off disasters for its master." ”
Chen Yizhi asked: "Is it really so magical? How did I hear that this blood jade was born in a bitter cold place, and those who enter it will die for a lifetime." ”
Luo Binyang smiled politely and said: "Xu has been in the Northern Regions for a long time, and he is used to the cold, and when I went to pick it up, I didn't feel how cold it was, and the danger was mostly just a rumor." ”
When Chen Yizhi heard Luo Binyang's words, her eyes were full of disdain.
Hmph, she thought it was some precious thing, but it was just something that was readily available, but she deliberately complimented it in front of everyone: "My cousin is very skilled, it's a pity that I didn't see my cousin show his skills just now." ”
Hearing her mention the martial arts training ground, the face of the county lord of Rong'an darkened.
Chen Yizhi's mother, Yang, immediately tugged at her sleeve and motioned her to shut up.
After Chen's accident, Mrs. Chen immediately took Chen back to Guogong Mansion, she was not here, and Chen Yizhi became more and more careless.
Princess Shang Cheng secretly poked and said: "The gift that Gongzi Luo prepared for Grandmother Luo is indeed outstanding, but I don't know, what did Miss Luo prepare?"
Chen Yizhi immediately followed Princess Shangcheng's words and said, "Yes, my cousin is both talented and beautiful, so she will take out the gift prepared for Grandmother Luo and show it to us, so that we can open our eyes." ”
Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on Luo Qianqian, and even the queen looked over.
Chen Yizhi saw that Luo was silent and sneered in his heart.
Of course, she knew that Luo Qianqian couldn't take out the string of Buddhist beads, nor could she take out the gift for the old lady.
suddenly became the focus, and Luo Qianqian's expression was innocent.
Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, the queen's eyes turned slightly, and she was about to relieve her future daughter-in-law, "Girl, I heard that today's birthday banquet was prepared by you, not bad." ”
Luo Qianqian got up and blessed the queen, and replied: "Niangniang praised it, the gift that Qian'er prepared for her grandmother was broken by the disobedient dog in the courtyard, but Qian'er still has a gift." ”
Hearing Luo Qianqian's words, Chen Yizhi and Yang's faces instantly fell.
This little slut dares to call her a dog!
But she just said something like that, so naturally she can't admit that she broke the Buddha herself.
Princess Shang Cheng's eyes fluttered, and she spoke at the right time: "Oh, I don't know what Miss Luo has prepared?"
Luo Binyang and his younger brother glanced at each other, but they couldn't see what the little sister was thinking.
The old marquis said loudly: "Qian'er, it's enough for you to have this heart." ”
Luo Qianqian didn't go down the steps given by her grandfather, she gathered her robe and waved her hand to signal the dancer to stop playing the silk and bamboo music.
The clear and flat voice was very penetrating, "My granddaughter learned a dance by chance, and today she is ugly in front of the queen's mother, grandfather and grandmother, and you." ”
Ye Qianling, who was left alone and hoped for the early end of the birthday banquet, muttered: "The tigress can still dance, and the iron tree blooms without this god." ”
His voice was neither loud nor small, but it was enough to reach everyone's ears.
Ye Qianling looked at everyone's strange gazes, and hurriedly explained: "I, I'm not talking about Miss Luo. ”
There are no silver three hundred taels here, and I don't recruit myself.
Luo smiled slightly, but didn't care.
After she came on stage, Xiao Cheng suddenly said, "Qian'er dances, how about this hall accompany you?"
The queen also nodded to Luo Qianqian, and she had no choice but to nod her head.
Who knew that Xiao Cheng not only pretended to be first-class in kung fu, but also reached the peak of his piano skills.
Luo Qianqian closed his eyes and felt the rhythm coming from the sound of the piano, and his body gradually followed the rhythm of Xiao Cheng.
For a while, like a flat boat, in the stormy sea, sometimes lifted by the waves, sometimes with the wind, everyone saw the cruelty of the sea from her beautiful posture, but also saw her strong and unyielding will.
In the blink of an eye, the style of music suddenly changed.
Under the lonely smoke of the desert, the wind and sand are like fog, and the two armies are fighting, and the arrows are ready to fly. And Luo Qianqian used her body to interpret the pain and suffering brought by the war to the people, she was like a delicate mandolin, blooming wantonly and ending lonely.
In a blink of an eye, after the dance, everyone was immersed in her dance and couldn't extricate themselves for a long time.
