Chapter Seventy-Seven: Sitting on the Demon Queen

"Niangniang, those ladies are already waiting in the main hall," Mengyu's voice came. Luo Jia looked in the direction of the main hall and said, "Take them to the 'Smoke and Rain Pavilion'"

"Yes"

Mengyu blessed his body and retreated.

"Caidie, go and ask the emperor to come over"

"Yes"

Caidie also retreated, "Niangniang, please use tea"

Mengfan brought a cup of tea to Luo Jia, Luo Jia took the tea and drank it, this tea was jasmine tea, and the water was made in clean snow water.

Luo Jia took a sip, and a fragrant jasmine fragrance entered her throat.

After taking a sip, he put the teacup back on Mengfan's plate, looking at the people who were not far away, those ladies had already come in, and the Yanyu Pavilion was the attic opposite her.

"County lords, ladies, please come here"

Dream whispered and invited them into the 'Smoke and Rain Pavilion'.

Xia Jiaoning looked up at the three words of Yanyu Pavilion, and walked in first, among these women, her status was a little higher than that of ordinary young ladies.

Then there was Xia Yuning, followed by Bai Lingxue and the three of them, and more than a dozen people entered one after another, among which there was a familiar figure that Luo Jia looked at - Lin Yulan.

The corners of Luo Jia's mouth were hooked, and the first one started with her.

"Jiajia, I've already figured out a way"

Beicheng Aotian's voice came from behind her, and Meng Fan dragged the tea tray and hurriedly knelt down, "Slave maid to participate in the emperor"

Beicheng Aotian waved them all out, Luo Jia turned around and walked to the table and sat down, and said lightly, "Didn't they give me, the emperor, a 'Demon Queen of the Disaster Country'?" If you don't sit down, wouldn't you be too sorry for the word 'demon queen'"

"So Jiajia, what are you going to do back to the 'Demon Queen'?"

Beicheng Aotian poured a cup of tea for himself and a cup for Luo Jia.

"The one-man show can't complete the role of the demon queen, and you have to cooperate at that time to dispel their idea of wanting to live in this city."

Luo Jia said that if Beicheng Aotian didn't cooperate, she wouldn't be able to be a demon queen alone.

"That's nature, okay, it's time to pass"

Beicheng Aotian put down the teacup, took Luo Jia's hand and left, Luo Jia wanted to pull it back, but heard Beicheng Aotian say "Enter the play from here"

All right!

From here, the drama begins.

In the Yanyu Pavilion, the ladies of each family have been arranged on both sides, and the palace maids have set up snacks and tea.

Xia Jiaoning looked at the dim sum in front of her, the five-petal-shaped 'jujube paste yam cake', the 'osmanthus sugar steamed chestnut flour cake' and the 'rose cake' made into pink flowers.

Looking at these pastries, she swallowed her saliva, and when she looked at the style of the pastries, she couldn't wait to bite into them, not to mention that she could vaguely smell the pastries with the fragrance of flowers.

So she reached out and took a piece of osmanthus cake, but before she could taste it, the back of her hand was patted, and the pastry she was holding fell back on the plate.

Turning her head to look at Xia Yuning, who hit the back of her hand, she heard Xia Yuning say before she could speak, "When they eat, we will eat again"

She remembered what that meal had tasted like four days earlier, and she didn't want to be rude again, in front of these people.

Xia Jiaoning also understood the meaning of this sentence, withdrew her hand, and quietly waited for the reaction of the first person to eat.

"What will happen if the emperor summons us into the palace?"

A young lady in a pink dress asked.

The young lady in the goose yellow dress beside her shook her head, who could have guessed the emperor's thoughts.

She only knew that the day after the queen mother's birthday banquet, there were eunuchs who came to spread the news that the emperor and queen wanted them to enter the palace after the heavy snowfall, and everyone had to prepare a good performance, such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or poetry and songs, and other things could also be done.

"Lingxue, do you say that the emperor wants to 'choose a concubine' for the emperor?"

An Qin pulled Bai Lingxue's sleeve.

When the eunuch came to deliver the message, she was so happy that her mother could not keep her mouth shut.

What did she say, but she saw the emperor's expression at that time, and when she looked at these young ladies, she was in a very good mood.

From time to time, I also discuss with the emperor and the queen which lady is which family!

This is definitely going to be a 'concubine'.

"Don't talk nonsense"

Bai Lingxue hurriedly covered her mouth, this kind of thing is not easy to say.

The emperor chooses a concubine for the emperor?

It's impossible to say, just imagine a wife who is busy giving women to her husband.

"An An, think about it with your brain, the emperor and queen have such a good relationship, how can they choose a concubine at this time"

Jun Minlian looked at her with idiotic eyes, even she, who likes martial arts and doesn't like literature, can know this truth, but An Qin doesn't understand.

"But ......"

An Qin bowed her head aggrievedly, not because she didn't understand, but at that time she also saw the emperor pointing at someone who asked the emperor's opinion, and the emperor nodded with satisfaction.

"The Emperor and the Queen Arrive"

The eunuch's voice drowned out the words behind her.

Everyone hurriedly stood up and knelt down to greet the "courtiers and queens"

Beicheng Aotian and Luo Jia walked in side by side, and instantly felt that all kinds of eyes converged on her and Beicheng Aotian's bodies, still purple dragon robes and phoenix robes, but Luo Jia had an extra snow-white cloak.

In front of passing by Xia Jiaoning's table, Luo Jia turned her head to look at the pastries on the table, the first pastry was crooked, and it was obvious that someone had just picked it up and dropped it.

The corners of Luo Jia's mouth twitched, did they cause fear of the food she had here!

Very good!

"Flat"

Beicheng Aotian and Luo Jia sat on the main seat together.

"Emperor Xie"

At this time, Luo Jia's face had maintained the smile that she should have as an emperor, and completely put away the previous cold air, and she didn't see a point, so she was really a gentle and atmospheric emperor.

Luo Jia sat on it and said with a smile, "Presumably the young ladies already know that this recruitment is the meaning of this post."

"Yes"

Everyone replied in unison.

"Then you're all set"

Luo Jia asked again.

"Yes"

"Okay, then before showing off our talents, let's eat pastries and enjoy a dance of dancing girls"

As soon as Luo Jia's words fell, Beicheng Aotian secretly made a gesture.

As soon as the gesture fell, a burst of music instantly floated in, and then a group of young dancers in ice blue dresses slowly walked in.

Eat the pastries and watch the dancing girls dance, and then they perform, is that a hint?

There have been quite a few ladies who have eaten pastries, and they are all fine.

Xia Jiaoning and Xia Yuning had just eaten and picked up the first piece.

Luo Jia raised the corners of her mouth to look at them again, Xia Yuning looked at it, and the pastries that were put on her lips didn't know if they should be sent in again?

What happens if the pastry is the same as the meal that time?

However, if you don't eat it, you can't put it back on the plate!

What to do?

"What are you so happy about?"

Beicheng Aotian narrowed the distance between the two and asked in Luo Jia's ear.

Luo Jia just wanted to sit away a little, but heard Beicheng Aotian say "into the play"

All right!

into the play.

So Luo Jia didn't move, and said softly, "The taste of the pastry should be good."

Then Luo Jia also ate a piece of 'rose pastry', which has rose petals added, and the color of the cake has become pink, and it is a little transparent, which is very gorgeous.

What's more, it is still made in the shape of a rose, and at first glance, you will think that it is a real pink rose.

"If it's delicious, eat more"

Beicheng Aotian pinched a piece and sent it to Luo Jia's mouth, and Luo Jia opened his mouth and ate it.

"Yu Ning, why don't you eat?"

Xia Jiaoning looked up at her sister who put the pastry to her mouth but didn't eat it.

I followed her gaze again, and suddenly felt that the delicious pastry in my mouth had changed its taste, astringent, and a little unpalatable.

She saw the emperor feeding the emperor pastries, and the queen leaned a little against the emperor.

How can this be!

How can Luo Jia be like this?

Luo Jia leaned on Beicheng Aotian and really had a demonic aura, and he really responded to the sentence 'demon queen'.

Just pulled too close, coupled with the way Luo Jia was sitting, and the visual angle they had seen led Luo Jia to lean on Beicheng Aotian.

Luo Jia skimmed them out of the corner of his eye, snapped his index and middle fingers, and said, "Let's all stand down."

The dancers who were twisting their waists in the field heard the words of the emperor, stopped moving, lined up, and then retreated.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you are showing your talents today, and the order of the performances has been arranged later"

Luo Jia beckoned, and Caidie was holding a wooden box, with a round opening on the upward side, enough for one hand to reach into.

"In this box there are notes from one to twenty, just like the number of you, each of you has a relative number in front of it, and the note drawn at the back of the book says something, and the corresponding person will come up and show your talents, how!"

Luo Jia's hand was on the wooden box, and the last word 'how' was like an inquiry, but the meaning of the whole sentence was already a statement.
