Chapter 150: Jealousy Becomes a Demon
The first to perform was Nangong Jin, she changed into a red and gorgeous dance dress, but appeared in front of everyone in a peculiar way, only to see her waist tied to a belt of the same color slowly from the eaves down, dancing around a pillar, graceful posture and graceful dancing posture made everyone amazed, no one thought that Her Majesty the Queen would have such a dance skill.
Only Gao Lian lowered his eyes indifferently and drank tea to himself.
The palace was surprisingly quiet, only to hear the sound of musical instruments more and more shocking, Nangong Jin waved his belt, the whole person slowly jumped down from the pillar, the sleeves were slowly flicked, the body was flexible to rotate over, she split a zigzag, the whole person flipped over again, the hairpin on her head Lingling sounded, she climbed to the pillar again, leaned down in the air, several palace maids prepared a piece of rice paper and retreated, she splashed ink on the paper with a wide sleeve, and after a while, a peony flower bloomed on her fingertips.
Everyone was stunned, they had never seen such a way of dancing, even if they knew that Her Majesty had always liked to play with novelties, but this was the first time they had seen it at this banquet, and they couldn't help but be amazed.
"This Nangong is not simple." Qin An stood behind Gao Lian, leaned down and said worriedly, "I don't know what kind of countermeasures the third lady will come up with." ”
Gao Lian just smiled meaningfully.
Nangong Jin faced everyone's envy of her, she glanced at Gao Lian who was sitting in the distance without a trace, and a smug smile crossed her eyes, look, no matter how hard Lin Ran struggles, I will win.
With the wonderful dance performance of the queen in front of her, Lin Ranran will have to bear more pressure next, if she does not surpass Her Majesty the Queen, then she must be unable to escape death today, everyone turned their eyes to Lin Ran, who was preparing.
There was a lot of discussion in the whole hall, but Lin Ran didn't hear it, she put on the white dance dress prepared for her by the palace maid, and asked people to prepare a few big drums.
Happy, Lin Ranran danced, but her opening method was too ordinary, and many people didn't have much interest, compared to Her Majesty's amazing jump before, although Lin Ranran danced well, but compared to the novelty, she was slightly inferior.
At this moment, the music sped up the frequency, only to see Lin suddenly waved away the wide sleeves, with the sleeves to hit each gong and drum, the heavy sound from the gongs and drums and the rhythm of the musical instruments, actually complemented each other harmoniously, the faster the master on the stage played for her soundtrack, the faster she threw out her sleeves to beat the gongs and drums, she kept spinning and rotating, the rhythm of throwing out the sleeves became more and more frequent, the sleeves fluttered, the feet rotated more violently, the drum continued to make sound, integrated into a variety of musical instruments, There are many people who stood up in surprise, which was even more spectacular than Nangong Jin's performance just now.
Nangong Jin sat aside, and couldn't help but squeeze his hand tightly, this Lin Ran is really good at pleasing things, and actually chose a song from the military, most of the people sitting here are old courtiers who have fought on the battlefield and killed the enemy and have made meritorious deeds, and her performance and the selection of the song are obviously the strongest part of their hearts.
Good for you, Lin Ran! She couldn't help but sweep her eyes to Gao Lian, who looked at the graceful figure on the stage for a moment, and the jealousy in her heart suddenly rose.
At this moment, one of the courtiers suddenly stood up and exclaimed, "Look! Everyone looked intently, but saw that Lin was hoisted high by two belts in the air at some point, and the whole person rotated 180 degrees, like a swallow flying in the air, and her hands were desperately beating gongs and drums, with the beat of the music, as if it could remind people of the momentum of killing the enemy.
Everyone looked at it intently, surprised, and at the end of the song, a sharp knife stabbed straight at Lin Xuanran, and before she could react, she felt a wind carrying her to the ground.
When she came back to her senses, she saw Gao Lian holding her waist, looking at her nervously, and there was an extra sharp knife in her hand.
"Your Majesty, there will be assassins on such a big occasion, I don't know how you feel." Gao Lian put Lin Ran down, turned around, and looked at her with a solemn expression.
Nangong Jin originally just wanted to warn Lin Xuanran, but he didn't expect Gao Lian to destroy it in it, and with a snap, no one noticed that the nail of the tail finger of her right hand was broken in half, Nangong Jin still raised a guilty smile on the surface and said: "I will definitely explain the assassination to you this time." ”
"I hope Your Majesty will find out thoroughly." Gao Lian was still expressionless, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts how this flying knife came about, and everyone didn't dare to anger the queen for the sake of Mingzhe's self-preservation.
"It's natural." Nangong Jin accepted it on the surface, but there were blood marks in the palms of her sleeves, and she glanced at Lin Ranran coldly, she could see that this Lin Ranran was very difficult to deal with, and there was a trace of condensation on her beautiful face, which was her life this time.
Even if there was too much unwillingness in her heart, but she couldn't show it explicitly, Nangong glanced at the people brought by Gao Lian, clenched her fists angrily, and the other guards were also waiting for her, but Gao Lian looked at her coldly, as if she could see through her heart, and couldn't help but let her gasp.
Lin suddenly glanced at Nangong Jin's expression full of resentment, smiled faintly, and said as if this had not happened: "Suddenly agreed." ”
After this episode, everyone could only disperse in their respective seats, Nangong Jin no longer had the interest just now, and it didn't take long for everyone to retire one after another.
At the same time, in the Ciyuan Palace, the queen received a letter, and she suddenly tore the letter to shreds when she was still walking in the garden.
"Mother, it's windy outside, let's go back outside!" The palace maid saw that the queen's face was wrong, and reminded in a low voice.
Tian Ruixin turned around, her face was extremely pale, which startled Mama Jin and the palace maid beside her: "Niangniang, what's wrong with you, is there something uncomfortable?" ”
"It's fine!" Tian Ruixin clenched the torn envelope in her hand, and walked into the hall quickly, followed by the palace maid and Mama Jin, who looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
After Tian Ruixin arrived in the house, she threw the bronze mirror on the ground, why, she met him in her best years, but in the end she was taken away by that slut, and now she still has to guard a half-dead person.
She couldn't help but get annoyed, and suddenly turned her head: "Bring all the clothes and hairpins to the whole class." ”
The palace maid looked at Mama Jin inexplicably, and Mama Jin scolded angrily: "What are you still doing in a daze, don't take it yet." The palace maid could only run to the house in fear and took out the queen's favorite hairpin and costume.
Mama Jin frowned and looked at the queen, only knowing that after reading the letter, she became moody, mostly because of Prince Jane, but what was written on this letter, she couldn't help but set her eyes on the queen who was trying on clothes.
"Mama, is Hongu beautiful?" Tian Ruixin retired from the palace maid, leaving Mama Jin alone.
"The queen has always been the most beautiful, and she leads the harem with three thousand beauties." Mama Jin hurriedly replied.
"But why doesn't he want to look at this palace until now?" The queen fiddled with the ring in her hand.
"Queen Mother, what's wrong with you?" Mama Jin couldn't help but worry.
The queen reflected her beautiful face in the broken mirror, if it weren't for the troubled situation of her family, she would have guarded such an emotionally impermanent old man, her once difficult love no longer existed under the arranged marriage, and her former lover was far away from her.
She is so beautiful, but she wants to live in this deep palace house, she is unwilling, she is not reconciled, as if she saw a picture of a pair of men and women hugging and kissing, she involuntarily swept all the rouge on the table to the ground, and Mama Jin was shocked.
Why am I living so painfully, Lin Ranran and Gao Lian live a life with the intention of a concubine, she raised her head suddenly, and a touch of anger crossed her face, but it's fast, as long as the emperor swallows his breath, everything will be hers, even if this assassination fails, it will not affect her plan, and soon there will be no more Lin Ranran in this world.
After winter, Lin was particularly afraid of the cold, and Nangong deliberately let people burn more charcoal in the east wing in order to apologize.
Lin suddenly said a little drowsy with a soft pillow: "Bean sprouts, do you find out who did it?" ”
Dou Ya'er stood aside and said respectfully: "I found out, it's Nangong Jin himself." ”
Lin Ranran's eyes, which were originally asleep, suddenly opened, and he sneered coldly: "It seems that this woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp either." ”
"Miss, what shall we do next?" Bean Sprouts asked.
Lin suddenly said lightly: "Everyone always has weaknesses, and I believe that Her Majesty the Queen should also have something she is afraid of, Green Willow." She called, and Lu Liu walked out from the side, took out a piece of paper and said, "Miss, the slaves and maids have all investigated clearly, it turns out that the queen is afraid of a patriarch named Lu Ya, Miss, are you going to grab their pigtails?" ”
"It's not." Lin said suddenly.
Green Willow showed a puzzled look: "But why didn't Miss take action after investigating clearly?" ”
A sly gaze crossed Lin Ranran's eyes: "This queen is arrogant by nature and has never put anyone in her eyes, but there is one person she is afraid of, that is, the elders of the clan." ”
Green willow and bean sprouts were even more puzzled: "But what does this have to do with the patriarch?" ”
Lin Ran smiled and continued: "Donglin Kingdom has been plagued by other countries for a hundred years, but since the queen ascended the throne, Donglin Kingdom has become more and more powerful, all this help is inseparable from the credit of the patriarch, but with the strength of Donglin Kingdom, the queen has never had an heir is a knot in the patriarch's heart, the patriarch once suggested that the queen can accept the men in the harem to reproduce for her, so far the queen has not agreed, but at this time she took a fancy to Gao Lian, what do you think is the reason." ”
Midori Willow was taken aback: "What does Miss mean?" Use the patriarch to stir up a relationship between the two of them! ”
Lin suddenly blinked his eyes and said indifferently: "The most important thing is that this patriarch likes this Majesty the Queen." ”
"Ahh Green Willow's mouth opened wide, "Miss slave didn't say it, how would you know!" ”
Lin suddenly smiled: "Because before this, I saw a man grab the queen's hand, if it is not what I expected, this person is the patriarch." ”
"Isn't the patriarch supposed to be an old man?" Bean Sprouts asked curiously.
Green Willow shook his head: "The patriarch is a young man, just like Miss expected, he is indeed affectionate to the Queen, but the Queen sensed his thoughts and drove him to other places, this time I am afraid that I came back to help the Queen get rid of Miss!" ”
Lin Ran nodded approvingly: "She will definitely find the next way if she fails in this assassination, as long as we take advantage of this weakness, we will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory." She said that her voice became weaker and weaker, and finally fell asleep on the table, green willow and bean sprouts saw that Miss was asleep, and when they were about to help her up, Gao Lian happened to walk in, he made a shushing gesture, picked up Lin Ran and put him on the couch, the two quietly retreated when they saw this, and closed the door for each other.
