CHAPTER XXIII

In the face of Yan Ziming's undisguised flattery, Cao Xing held the right hand at the end of the dust whisk handle and shook the dust gently, and then leaned his neck and hummed twice with his nose, obviously disdainful of Yan Ziming's flattery.

"You think my father-in-law wants to come! Isn't this just a coincidence, the imperial concubine and the palace maidens are drinking tea in the queen's palace, the imperial concubine Niangniang heard that this time you and the Muwen guards brought a famous pianist back to His Royal Highness the Prince, and also claimed to be comparable to the royal luthier of His Majesty, the imperial concubine Niangniang was quite curious, so he asked his father-in-law to take this violinist to the queen's palace to play, and also let the palace ladies feast their ears...... "Cao Xing wanted to speak to Yan Ziming with his nostrils, but Yan Ziming was more than a head taller than him, yes, Cao Xing could only tilt his neck and say to Yan Ziming so weirdly.

After Cao Xing finished speaking, Yan Ziming was about to open his mouth to answer, but he saw Cao Xing hanging his head, and his slender eyes swept straight past Yan Ziming and swept to Leng Qing on the side.

It happened that Leng Qing was also looking at Cao Xing, so the two of them collided with each other. Cao Xing, who was partial, was the most unfortunate to see people with a lower status than him look at him directly, and Cao Xing immediately pulled down his face, his face full of displeasure.

On the other side, Cao Xing's attitude of not taking Yan Ziming in his eyes made Wang Quan, who was kneeling on the ground, squint his eyes slightly, and the eyes of Danfeng, who were disguised, revealed a dangerous light......

Cao Xing naturally didn't perceive the slightest danger, only to see him take two steps towards Leng Qing, and then bent down, while stretching out his empty left hand and pinching Leng Qing's chin. Xu was unhappy, and Cao Xing's subordinates secretly exerted some strength.

Suddenly, Cao Xing's chin was pinched, and it was pinched very hard, Leng Qing's eyes immediately became cold, he had already put down the fire and stopped roasting, and his hands hidden in the thick and wide sleeves were clenched into fists, but Leng Qing held back all his anger, and just sat there quietly and let Cao Xing do whatever he wanted.

And Cao Xing, in front of Yan Ziming, Wang Quan, and Mu Wen like this, pinched Leng Qing's face and shook it over and looked at it. There is no one in the eyes of the whole person, and the presumptuous to the extreme!

Leng Qing repeatedly warned herself that she had to be calm, this person who was neither yin nor yang could not even give Yan Ziming a face, and he did not say anything to stop him. She can't even do anything to him! She's going to endure!!

It's just that Cao Xing's slender eyes reveal the look that seems to be looking at a piece of goods, which really makes Leng Qing very unhappy!

At that time, Leng Qing held back her anger and didn't dare to attack. At this time, Cao Xing looked at Leng Qing, and said in a weird manner: "This is the violinist who was brought back from outside the palace??" Look at this appearance, it is a good beauty embryo, and it is not in vain that Wang Quan and Mu Wen and the two guards went out to collect this month. It's just that this look is not very good, there is no idea to be angry, and it is not as good as the little palace maid in the palace of the imperial concubine. ”

After speaking, Cao Xing let go of his left hand that was pinching Leng Qing's chin, stood up straight, and looked sideways at Yan Ziming, who was standing beside him, with a smile on his face that had not diminished. I only heard that Cao Xing continued to say in a weird manner: "That's it, let this girl go with me, if she performs well, she can please the imperial concubine and the queen's mother, and maybe you can get some rewards back." ”

As soon as Cao Xing let go of his hand, Leng Qing immediately twisted his face back, and the expression on his beautiful face was that he didn't want to look at Cao Xing for a second. Leng Qing felt that instead of looking at such a thing that was neither male nor female, it was better to look at these two charcoal fires to be eye-catching!

For Cao Xing's unbridled behavior with no one in his eyes, Yan Ziming, who was disguised as Wang Quan, was also dissatisfied. But he can't show anything on his face, because he has to continue acting in this play!

I saw that Yan Ziming was still looking at Cao Xing with a smile, and still said to Cao Xing with a smile: "Since it is the order of the imperial concubine." Naturally, we dare not disobey. It's just that this luthier girl has just brought it back, and she hasn't had time to freshen up all the way, so she looks so dirty to meet the queen and the imperial concubine. At least let this luthier girl change into clean clothes, so that I am afraid that I will have to bother Gonggong Cao to go to the front hall to wait first, and then go to the queen's palace together after the luthier girl changes her clothes. ”

I didn't think about it. Yan Ziming's voice fell, but Cao Xing turned his head, and then shook the dust in his hand. I don't know if Cao Xing was intentional or unintentional, the dust was thrown a little high, and the tail end of the dust was thrown straight towards Yan Ziming's face, if it weren't for Yan Ziming's quick reaction and quietly avoided some of the back, I was afraid that this dust would be thrown directly on Yan Ziming's face!

Cao Xing, who turned around to himself, naturally didn't see this scene, only heard him say in a tone full of disdain: "My father-in-law doesn't have that idle time to wait!" After the pianist has freshened up, you can take it to the palace of the queen mother, and my father-in-law must go back to report to the emperor and concubine first, so as not to keep waiting. ”

After Cao Xing said this, he walked away without waiting for Yan Ziming to answer. The arrogant appearance seems to be the master of this Weide Palace.

Seeing Cao Xing's figure deliberately leaving with square steps turned out of the door of the apse, the corners of Yan Ziming's mouth still floated a sneer after all: What a dog and a human power! But also, if this dog thing is not so presumptuous that no one is in sight, how can he leave according to his wishes?

Cao Xing thought that he was throwing off "Wang Quan" in the face, but he didn't know that what "Wang Quan" wanted was Cao Xing's disdain, turned around and left.

If Cao Xing really went to the front hall of the Qingxin Hall to wait in peace according to Yan Ziming's words, it would not be a good thing for Yan Ziming and the others!

"Queen...... Imperial Concubine...... Their news is really fast! Wang Quan, who was still kneeling on the ground covered with wool felt, also looked in the direction of the temple gate, and slowly spit out such a sentence in his mouth. It's just that Wang Quan's face is still full of tears, and with such a slow tone, it can only make people feel funny.

"Master, do you really want to let Miss Leng go?" The one who asked this was a pastoral text who was holding a three-foot green peak that had been sheathed in his left hand. How vicious the heart of the queen and the imperial concubine is, Mu Wen has deeply experienced it over the years, Mu Wen doesn't think that the queen and the imperial concubine recruit Leng Qing, they really just want to listen to Leng Qing play the piano! This is simply a "Hongmen feast"!

Mu Wen's question was not answered, because Yan Ziming just looked at the wide open door of the apse, and asked Mu Wen rhetorically: "Even Cao Xing has been sent, do you think you can not go?" Do you want Lan Fang to invite you too? The meaning of the words is self-evident.

"Can I say no, then?" What followed Yan Ziming's words was a cold woman's voice.

When Leng Qing said this, she still looked at the charcoal fire in the two silver charcoal stoves in front of her, and there was no expression on the face reflecting the glimmer of the charcoal fire, but the pair of willow eyebrows with appropriate shades wrinkled slightly, showing Leng Qing's reluctance in her heart.

When Yan Ziming heard this, he turned around and grinned at Leng Qing's back, and then directly threw two words to Leng Qing: "No!" ”

Hearing this, Leng Qing's brows furrowed even more when she lowered her eyes and looked at the charcoal fire in front of herβ€”sure enough, she shouldn't have come in here in the first place!

**

The Imperial Palace of the Red Ice Country. Yixin Palace. The Queen's Bedchamber.

Under the eaves of the glazed tile heavy eaves of the palace, the dense bucket is applied, and the outdoor beams are decorated with the color painting of the seal, which looks very magnificent.

The upper part of the door and window is inlaid with a rhombic pattern, the lower part is embossed with a cloud dragon pattern, and the joints are equipped with gilded copper leaves engraved with dragon patterns.

The six-open openwork carved hall door is covered with an extremely fine white veil, which not only blocks the low temperature outside, but also prevents people outside the house from seeing the situation inside, killing two birds with one stone.

At the top of the door of the hollow carved hall is hung a black golden silk nanmu plaque, on which the dragon flies and the phoenix dances inscribed with three golden characters - Fuqin Palace.

At present, on the white marble road in front of the Fuqin Palace, there are four people standing in front of and behind them.

The man at the head of the robe was wearing a pale yellow narrow-sleeved brocade robe, the hem of the robe was embroidered with simple moire, and the cuffs of the placket were embroidered with extremely intricate patterns.

The man wore a wide dark green ribbon with a sparkling ruby embedded in the center. On the left side of the belt, a golden yellow palace silk with high-grade mutton fat and white jade pendants tied at both ends hung quietly.

This man even has a face that can be called a disaster for the country and the people: fair skin, a slightly feminine face, dense and curved long ink eyebrows, narrow Danfeng eyes, slightly raised at the corners of the eyes, a high nose bridge, and slightly thin lips...... If he doesn't have a silly smile on his face at the moment, then he really looks perfect!!

On the left side of the man stood a woman, the woman stepped on the dark gold lotus embroidered shoes on a white background, wearing a white curved deep coat, the edge of the deep coat was purple, the front and hem of the deep coat were embroidered with wisteria, and the waist was tied with a light purple embroidered dark purple wisteria wide belt, covered with a dark purple thick coat. In this way, although the color tone is a little single, it is refreshing to look at.

Half of the woman's three thousand green silks were tied behind her head with a purple hairband, and half were meekly draped over her shoulders behind her; Look at the slender eyebrows that are not thick or light, a pair of just right double eyelids lined with those bright eyes like stars, a delicate nose, small lips with appropriate thickness and soft pale pink, slightly pursed lips on both sides of the cheeks that loom dimples, and a slightly thin chin...... Such a casual bundle of hair and such soft facial features are simply stunning!

Behind the leader, a man and a woman, stood two men wearing black dark pattern inlaid gold wire high official boots, wearing brown leather armor and black hair.

The man on the right has a baby face, long eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose and thin lips, and a round face that looks very cute, but there is a bohemian smile on the corner of his mouth, which looks a little inappropriate.

The man on the left has a long face, thin lips, a high nose bridge, big eyes, deep eye sockets, a expressionless face, and a three-foot Qingfeng in his left hand.

These four people are Yan Ziming, Leng Qing, Wang Quan, and Mu Wen. (To be continued.) )
