"Old lady, it's Rou'er's turn to perform, I'll accompany Rou'er to change clothes. Zhao said to Old Madam Ling.

Old Madam Ling glanced at Ling Wanrou, nodded and said, "Go ahead, Rou'er is young and ignorant, you have to be extra careful as a mother." ”

Zhao's expression froze, her gentleness was so unwelcome.

"Yes, the old lady said. Zhao lowered his eyebrows and replied, this is in the palace, if she argues with Old Madam Ling for a few words, then her reputation for cruelty and viciousness will really spread throughout the capital, and then she may not be able to save her fate.

Zhao pulled Ling Wanrou and left in a hurry, and as soon as she walked out of the door, Ling Wanrou couldn't help but say, "Mother, why did you stop me just now, didn't you see what grandmother was biased about? She actually let Ling Haoyue give the sign!"

The feud between Ling Huaizhu and Old Madam Ling heard Ling Wanrou's ears, she had long wanted to say a few "fair words", but Zhao held her hand tightly and signaled her not to speak.

"That's not your sign, what are you anxious about. The Zhao family knew what Ling Wanrou was thinking, but she just felt that Old Madam Ling was partial to Ling Haoyue, and she was unwilling. Ling Huaizhu is just her sister-in-law, and she is not so kind to speak for her.

Her mind was exposed, Ling Wanrou was a little sneering on her face, bit the corner of her lip, and said stubbornly: "Grandmother, she is eccentric, only Ling Haoyue is her granddaughter in her eyes, I just can't look past it." ”

Zhao persuaded bitterly: "Rou'er, how many times has my mother told you, Ling Haoyue is the orphan of your second uncle, even if your grandmother is biased towards her, it won't be good, if you want the old lady to be more biased towards you, you have to be yourself, you are the eldest lady of the Ling Guo Mansion, polite, chaste and virtuous, this is the person your grandmother likes." ”

"My life doesn't exist for my grandmother's liking!" Ling Wanrou blurted out.

"And what are you yelling about?"

Zhao asked a rhetorical question, and Ling Wanrou was dumbfounded.

"I ......"

"You were born and raised by me, I don't know what you think in your heart! Rou'er, how many times have I told you for my mother, you have to endure it, for your future, you don't have to fight for everything, that is, your grandmother can't say a word if you refute it today, what will happen to the result, she will dislike you more and more, what good is it for you?"

Ling Wanrou bowed her head and was silent.

Zhao looked at her and felt tired, and sighed lightly: "Alas...... Well, think about it yourself, what exactly you should do, and think twice. ”

Whether it is from the perspective of a mother or a counselor, Zhao has already explained it clearly, Ling Wanrou understands no matter how stupid she is, why do things that harm others and herself?

"Mother, I was wrong. Ling Wanrou replied in a low voice.

"Rou'er, it's good that you understand your mother's hard work. The Zhao clan didn't know how much Ling Wanrou listened to it, but now that she was willing to admit her mistake, at least her mind had been shaken.

"Let's go, Mother will accompany you to change your clothes. For today's banquet, you practice dancing day and night, and you must perform well today. ”

Thinking about today's purpose, Ling Wanrou nodded heavily and said, "Mother rest assured, Rou'er has made enough preparations, and today she will definitely become the number one talented woman in Beijing." ”

Today's performances are all the ladies in the capital, as long as Ling Wanrou comes out on top, then of course the title of the first talented woman in the capital will be crowned with her.

Zhao smiled: "It's good that my son is confident, let's go and change my clothes." ”

……

"Which young lady should be next?" After the eighth young lady finished performing, the queen quietly asked the palace maid beside her.

The palace maid replied, "It's Ling Wanrou, the eldest lady of the Ling Guo Mansion. ”

Ling Wanrou's brows furrowed slightly, speaking of which Ling Wanrou and the Feng family are still related, and they can be regarded as having a relationship with her, but her reputation is too bad, first Ling Wanrou is the eldest sister and insults the cousin of the county lord of Haoyue, this matter has just stopped, and then there is the bad reputation of the Zhao family for brutally killing the grandchildren. This mother and daughter are all the way, and when they talk about them, the queen feels ashamed.

"The courtier's daughter Ling Wanrou danced a song to congratulate our dynasty on its victory, long live my emperor, long live, long live. Ling Wanrou walked into the hall in a fringed colored sleeve drag skirt and bowed her knees to Emperor Qin of the West and made a marked blessing salute.

"Well, Miss Ling has a heart. ”

Although Emperor Xiqin simply praised him, the smile on the corner of his lips already proved that he was quite happy in his heart at the moment, and Ling Wanrou's words were exactly what he was feeling in his heart.

The young ladies in front of them all said nonsense such as courtiers offering ugliness, but Ling Wanrou's congratulations made Emperor Xiqin's heart quite comfortable.

"Your Majesty praised the courtier. Ling Wanrou was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Emperor Xi Qin.

The old lady Ling below shook her head slightly, and sighed lightly: "She is really still too young. ”

Zhao replied in a low voice: "Rou'er is also a piece of heart, and the emperor will receive it." ”

"Well, it's not bad, Rou'er has grown a lot these days. Old Madam Ling nodded and said with a smile, "It's just that you don't say this to Rou'er, lest she just get a word or two of praise and be full of pride." ”

"Don't worry, the old lady, the daughter-in-law is provincial. ”

Qing Dai, who was on the side, couldn't help but ask quietly: "County Lord, what kind of dumb riddle are these old ladies and eldest ladies answering? Why don't the slaves and maids understand very well?" ”

Lily of the Valley said in surprise: "Qingdai, you didn't understand, I thought I was the only one who was stupid and couldn't understand." ”

Ling Haoyue smiled: "It's not that you are stupid, you don't know Your Majesty Ling Wanrou. Ling Wanrou's congratulations were wonderful, and it really made His Majesty very satisfied, but as soon as Her Majesty praised her, she couldn't wait to thank her, and the traces of this sycophant were too heavy, and the effect of the previous sentence of congratulations would go directly to more than half of it. ”

What kind of person is Emperor Xi Qin? The best thing to be a king is to see what the people below are thinking, Ling Wanrou's first sentence of a weak woman is congratulations, this is to satisfy the vanity of Emperor Xi Qin, but this second sentence of thanks, that is, to show her intention to congratulate clearly, she just picked a good time to pat on the back.

No wonder the old lady was both satisfied and dissatisfied. "Qing Dai can understand it at a glance, and you will know the cause of the matter immediately.

Qingdai's brain turned fast, but Lily of the Valley was not like this, she didn't understand, but she was embarrassed to say that she didn't understand, so she could only bow her head silently.

"This has nothing to do with us, so don't think about it. Ling Haoyue said with a smile, Ling Wanrou's debt to her must be repaid after all, as for when it will be repaid, it depends on her mood.

……

The music sounded, Ling Wan's soft sleeves danced lightly, her steps were light, and the tassels slowly swayed with the dance steps, adding more style.

Most of the men in the hall were attracted by the women on the stage, dancing like water, and most of the women's tenderness was fully displayed.

Ling Haoyue also had to nod, from a woman's point of view, her dancing posture can almost be said to be the peak, it seems that she has worked hard these days.

The music stops, and the dance ends.

"Okay, good!" Emperor Xiqin said three good words in a row, and said with a smile, "This dance is good, my Xiqin is really talented, I am very relieved, reward!"

Ling Wanrou raised her eyebrows: "Thank you, Your Majesty." The courtier's sacrifice is ugly, and it is a blessing for the courtier's daughter to be able to enter His Majesty's eyes. ”

Emperor Xi Qin looked at Ling Guogong and said with a smile: "Miss Ling not only dances brilliantly, but also has a humble temperament, and Ling Guogong has taught well. ”

Ling Guogong hurriedly thanked him: "It's just some children's things, Your Majesty has praised it, and the ministers are ashamed." "The military power of Southern Xinjiang was originally in his hands, but he was forced to hand over the military power because of Ling Wanrou, and now the Western Qin Emperor praised him because of Ling Wanrou, which was really incomprehensible to him for a while.

Compared to Ling Guogong's nervousness, Ling Wanrou kept smiling on her face, today is the second time she has won the appreciation of Emperor Xiqin, this is the first time, her chance to come out is coming.

Her eyes quietly glanced at the prince's seat, but where her eyes fell, there was no eye response, and the second prince, Qin Jingzhong, just lowered his head and drank tea, not even looking up.

"Ling Guogong doesn't have to be modest, I see it in my eyes. Emperor Xiqin said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Ling Guogong and Ling Wanrou thanked them again and again, and only then retreated after they were finished.

"Whose young lady is next?" Emperor Xiqin asked, Ling Wanrou's dance was really good, I didn't know what wonderful performances would follow.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's Wen Qingyao from the Marquis of Zhenyuan's Mansion. The queen replied.

Concubine Yun smiled: "Miss Wen is known as the first talented woman in Beijing, and the concubine is looking forward to what Miss Wen will perform." ”

Concubine Yun's face was impermanent, and she was still laughing with Emperor Xiqin as usual, the queen's face changed slightly, she didn't know if Concubine Yun's face was so thick, or that His Majesty's reprimand was not enough, and even she, the queen of the main palace, dared to accept the words!

Emperor Xi Qin still likes Concubine Yun the most, she speaks straightforwardly, and she can say whatever she wants.

"The first talented woman in the capital, this name is not small, a talented girl, the left is just a piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Emperor Xiqin smiled, "What do you think, concubine?"

"The concubine can't guess, since Miss Wen is a talented woman, she must have a different mind from others, but the concubine thinks that there may be a surprise. Concubine Yun said with a smile, Emperor Xiqin was willing to answer with her, and the anger in her heart had almost disappeared.

Concubine Yun glanced at the queen without a trace: This old woman, what you gave to the palace, the palace will return it doublely.

"Surprise? I'll have to wait and see. "Emperor Xiqin couldn't help but laugh when he was amused by Concubine Yun.

Wen Qingyao moved lightly, walked into the hall, and saluted to Emperor Qin of the West: "The courtier Wen Qingyao knocks to see the emperor." ”

Wen Qingyao deserves to be called a model of women in Beijing, following the rules in her words and deeds, and being quiet and polite.

"Miss Wen, please get up, I just heard that you are called the number one talented girl in Beijing, I don't know what you want to perform today?"

"Back to Your Majesty, when my brother was in southern Xinjiang, the courtiers missed their brother, so today I presented a dance of 'Lanling King's Entrance Song', and asked Your Majesty to appreciate your face. ”
