As he was talking, there was a joking sound outside.

"Xiao Wang is really lucky, as soon as he comes, he can see the beautiful scenery of spring."

"Ah, it's the Prince of Qi of Xuanling Kingdom!" Mama Gui Yun glanced at it and immediately said happily.

"Lord Qi......" The palace immediately moved.

The people present, there are few people who don't know the prince of Lu Daoqi, he is the son of the cousin of the queen mother sent to Xuanling Guohe, he will come once every two years, he is very generous, and the gold is hundreds of taels when he is thrown away, every time he comes, some lucky minions in the palace will make a small fortune, and the people are easy-going and funny, and they are very popular.

The hearty laughter came from outside the screen, and everyone's eyes lit up, only to see King Qi wearing a lake blue brocade robe, tall and lofty, a pair of narrow black eyes glowing with peach blossoms, and the corners of his lips were raised, which was a seductive smile.

He didn't look at anyone, but his eyes swept over, and it made people feel that everyone had seen him, and then walked to the high platform freely, hugged his fists, and said hello.

"Auntie, how is the phoenix body? Fighting"

"Lan Qi, why are you half a month late?"

The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, and she greeted him closely. Yu Yan got up and stepped aside, ready to find an empty seat to sit down, but she didn't know what she stepped on, her feet slipped, and she almost fell down the steps.

"Beware, beauties."

King Qi's body moved, one arm held her steadily, and when he lowered his eyes, the lake and mountains in his eyes reflected in Yu Yan's eyes.

There was an exclamation in the hall, the Queen Mother looked down at Yu Yan and King Qi, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and then she waved her hand and said intimately: "Gui Yun, quick, go and help Yu Yan get up, look, did you fall and touch it?" ”

"Don't dare to work Gui Yun's mother, the slave and maid are fine, and the slave and maid have gone down."

Yu Yan pushed away the hot palm of King Qi holding her fingers without a trace, saluted the Queen Mother, and then quickly stepped off the high platform and went to sit down in the empty seat behind Chen Qing and Ye Mingyue. Every family sits together, and her seat is here, and she can only sit among them.

Everyone turned their heads to look at her from time to time, but she only lowered her head and lowered her eyes, looking cowardly and timid, twisting her handkerchief, and not even daring to raise her head.

Her encounter is also bizarre, Yuyu Shi offended many people during his lifetime, this is a very realistic, very good at seeing people's eyes, full of courts, it is true that only Yunfu is willing to marry the fisherman, so she has grown to fourteen, and there has never been a matchmaker. Coupled with the bright birthmark on her forehead, some people also feel unlucky, and no one puts her and beauty together.

Yuyushi died, she became Princess Xiao, got rid of the Yun family, high above, and the scenery was infinite. But after a long time, she immediately became a widow, and after more than three years, the prince returned, she became a slave from the princess, and in Beijing, she was simply a joke!

Fortunately, everyone's attention quickly went to King Qi, and there was the unmarried girl, whose eyes were full of spring, whispering softly from time to time, covering her lips and smiling, and whispering about the most noble person in Xuanling Kingdom, the prince of Xuanling - Shu Lanqi.

Yu Yan took a sip of tea and raised her eyes curiously to look at King Qi.

A chair was added to the Queen Mother's side, and he sat there, chatting and laughing with several noble ladies, without restraint.

The three major countries in the world, Houqing, Xuanling, and Tianmo.

After the Qing country Chongwen, the Tiandesert country Chongwu, the two countries have been fighting for years and fighting for territory. Although the strength of the Houqing country is strong, the courage of the soldiers is far less than that of the desert, and they are hammered by the desert country all the year round, but when it comes to the king of Xiao, he changes this situation, and fights the elite wolf cavalry army of the desert country, the ghost cries the wolf, the tears are shed for thousands of miles, and the defeat and retreat again and again, up to the Son of Heaven, down to the people, all respect and fear the king of Xiao, and his reputation as the god of war has also spread all over the world.

As for the royal family of Xuanling, they just want to make a fortune, and send soldiers to explore treasures all day long. Dig up the mountains, dig down into the sea, dig everywhere they want.

They used gold and silver to raise a warlock who looked at feng shui and a capable person who dug treasures, but the four words of Wengong and Wuluo could not be found in Xuanling, and even their banner had a huge gold coin painted on it.

But because of the money, the upper can buy the ghosts and gods, and the lower can buy the demons, in Houqing and Tianmo, they have laid a dense spy eyeliner, and the ministers of the two countries also speak for them, plus the women of the harem are angry, and they gave birth to a large number of daughters who are like flowers and jade, a large number of handsome sons, and wantonly make peace with the two countries, and when these two countries are at war, they hide behind and dig treasures.

If you ask him for money, he will give it immediately, but he will not participate in your affairs, and the two countries are afraid that they will force Xuanling to the other side, so they will not embarrass Xuanling, and continue to attack and kill each other.

Su Lanqi is such a rich, powerful and beautiful man! No wonder these women were all uneasy when they saw him, and the ladies couldn't help but pull their unmarried daughters forward to get close to him.

"What are you looking at?" Ye Jiansu suddenly turned her head and asked her, and Qiu Xuanling also turned her head.

"Huh?" Yu Yan turned her head to look at her. has been in the house for so long, she rarely meets these two ladies, and she avoids them, not wanting to explode sparks.

"Are you looking at King Qi? How can you be so upset? Ye Jiansu said again, scathing and loud, which caused everyone to look at it again.

Yu Yan hated to take the tea bowl in her hand, knock on her head, and let her deliberately provoke! She raised her eyes to look ahead, and King Qi was also looking over, and in a pair of eyes, the light brightened a little more.

"Yu Yan, for a woman, you should be reserved and docile, if you let the prince know the way, you will suffer again." Ye Jiansu sneered a few more times.

"Madame, don't tell the prince, the prince has been dissatisfied with me in the past few days, if Madame says it, he will come to punish me again at night." Yu Yan groaned, her fingers on the tea bowl lightly, and begged for mercy timidly.

Everyone gasped, it turned out that King Xiao was there every day, wasn't that spoiled?

Ye Jiansu's face changed again and again, she was so angry that her teeth itched, she glared at her fiercely, and turned her head.

"Hey, Yu Yan, I'll go to your place to play tomorrow night." Qiu Xuanling was not angry, came over with a tea bowl, sat with her, blinked his big eyes, and said excitedly.

This is clearly to go to her and meet King Xiao!

Yu Yan pursed her lips and smiled and nodded slightly.

"Well, I'll bring some good wine, what do you like to eat? I'll bring it to you, my mother's cook is especially good at making pastries. Qiu Xuanling said with a smile again.

"It's all good." Yu Yan nodded lightly, squinted and smiled, pretending to be flattered.

In the discussion, she heard a chuckle, looked for the sound, and saw that King Qi was still staring at this side, holding the jade bottle with his long fingers, and raised it to her.

Hey, don't mess around! Yu Yan sensed his intention and complained softly in her heart.

"I'm happy today, it's better for you sisters, all of you to offer your talents, so that King Qi can open his eyes, if there is an eye, the mourning family will be the master, let King Qi marry back, King Qi has no concubine." Empress Dowager Fuye swept King Qi and Yu Yan, put the eyes of the two into her eyes, raised her lips, and pointed her finger with a golden finger sleeve at the women in the hall, and said with a smile.

The hall suddenly became lively.

"Rong Xin, you are a concubine, and King He Qi has been familiar with him since childhood, they haven't been out of the cabinet yet, and they are not as generous as you, so you can throw bricks and lead the jade and play a song for everyone." Fuye is also called Zhao Rongxin, Zhao Dazai's daughter usually wins her heart, but today she is so silent, which makes her a little unhappy.

Zhao Rongxin got up, blessed her, turned his head and said to the personal maidservant, "Go and get the piano from the palace." ”

The servant girl immediately went down, and her harp was with her, and she put it in the compartment, and the maidservant hurriedly took the piano and put it on the table, and everyone was immediately stunned.

Ye Jiansu looked at the piano and said to Chenqing and Ye Mingyue: "The name of this piano is Huanliang, and it is still a piano obtained by the first emperor, which is made of thousand-year-old agarwood, and these six strings are also kneaded together with the tail of the Han blood horse and silk, and it took three full years for the craftsman, you look at the jade inlaid here, it is the ancient jade of Cen Mountain." ”

Ye Mingyue is also a person who loves the qin, she was fascinated, her face was full of envy, and she whispered: "It's good, if I have such a piano, I have no regrets in this life." ”

"The prince spoils you, let the prince also find a pair for his sister, it is said that there is also a heirloom guqin called Hongqi, which is better than this one. Actually, I want to do that too. Ye Jiansu sighed softly and said enviously.

"Although the piano is good, the person who plays it must be good to be successful." Chen Yao glanced at the two of them and said softly.

"My sister is right." The two men quickly bowed their heads and replied respectfully.

Yu Yan looked at it coldly, the three women all looked at Chen Yao's horse head and respected her very much, it didn't take long for Chen Yao to let the slaves and maids of the Xiao Wangfu obey her and respect her, it was really powerful.

Zhao Rongxin walked to the piano, sat down, the brocade sleeves gently slid down the snow jade wrist, and the fingertips were gently pulled on the strings, and the hall was quiet.

Her fame in the capital is by no means luck, in addition to her beauty, this piano skill is rarely compared.

A song "Floating Light Prosperous Age" made everyone listen to it as if they were fascinated, and the sound of breathing could hardly be heard in the hall, so they all held their breath and listened to the string sound, afraid that the breathing sound would be loud, so that the string sound suddenly broke and became a pity.

The beautiful singing voice suddenly rises and moves along with the strings.

Everyone turned their heads, only to see a woman get up from her seat, singing, like the queen mother on the high platform blessed her body, flicked her brocade sleeves, and danced again.

"Who is this? So outstanding? Chen Yao was also stunned.

"This is Tong Pian, it is the 4,000 gold of the Tong family, and the singing voice can make the yellow warbler fall off the pear blossom tree."

Ye Jiansu was a little unconvinced, and muttered in a low voice, something like this kind of showmanship has nothing to do with her in the future, she has entered the Xiaowang Mansion so far, she has not been fortunate not to say, she has not even gotten the opportunity to serve the Xiaowang to eat, among the five women, she is the most neglected.

"It's a good song." Qiu Xuanling admired and danced lightly in the air with his hand holding a brocade handkerchief.

"What are you arguing about, have you ever seen the world?" Ye Jiansu glared at her again.

Qiu Xuanling immediately lowered her head and leaned closer to Yu Yan's side.

Chen Yao turned her head to look at the three of them and smiled faintly. Ye Mingyue is an art idiot, and she has long been in the gods, so she doesn't care what the four of them are doing, her fingers are gently pulling in the air, and she is memorizing the string vocal score.

And Yu Yan began to miss the picture that En helped her in, it was Daddy Wu on Dongzheng Street who wanted to tell Shun Qian Zhuang to pay his hard-earned money, and secretly exchanged his deposit ticket of one hundred taels of silver for ten taels.

She couldn't see Daddy Wu directly, the questions she asked were written on paper, and asked Nian'en to take it out, Daddy Wu replied, Nian'en wrote it back for her, and the words that she couldn't write were all drawn.

She dipped her fingers in the tea and wrote softly on the small table, thinking about how to find something suspicious in the case.

It is not easy for an honest man who does small business to save a hundred taels of silver, but he wants to go back to his hometown to buy land to support the elderly, and for his son to marry his daughter-in-law, it becomes ten taels, isn't that more uncomfortable than killing him? Hate profiteers! Yu Yan hates these black-hearted people the most, and she can't immediately pick up a pen and scold this black-hearted shopkeeper for being bloody, and she has no shame to go to see her father and mother in the spring.

These mime sounds in my ears are murmurs for Yu Yan! Not enjoyment! She just doesn't like this, especially the pretend posture in order to show in front of men, which makes her even more disgusted.

"Xiao Lian, I haven't seen you for a year, you have grown more and more, King Qi, how do you think of singing?" The Queen Mother asked King Qi with a smile at this time.

"Yes, yes." King Qi stroked his palms and praised with a smile. As soon as he raised his hand, an entourage came in with two large plates, and unveiled the brocade cloth in front of everyone, and the two dazzling gold-inlaid jade flowers attracted bursts of cheers from the women.

"It's beautiful."

"Look at the ruby."

"It's a gem."

King Qi smiled and nodded, asked his entourage to hold the two wooden plates in front of the two, and said loudly: "The piano skills of the noble concubine are really all over the world, and it is rare to smell them." The singing and dancing of the little girl are also beautiful and moving, which opened Xiao Wang's eyes. These two bead flowers are a little bit of heart in the lower district, please smile. ”

"Take it." Zhao Rongxin was used to seeing good things, so he didn't think so, and only let the maid accept it.

Tong Lian was overjoyed, took the tray, and saluted him in a coquettish voice to thank him, "King Xie Qi." ”

"Queen Mother, Xiao Wang also gave a generous gift to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Feng drove away, let's go out and have a look?" King Qi looked at the Queen Mother again.

"What kind of good thing, you have to go to see it?" The Queen Mother smiled, and the person had already gotten up, and her hand was stretched out to him.

"Queen Mother, please." King Qi held her hand and walked side by side with her to the outside of the main hall.

All the women got up and walked out, Yu Yan's heart was already formed, and she was in a good mood, and she followed everyone to see the excitement. I saw a few golden brocade cloths covering a few large square boxes, and there was a faint sound of inquiry, and I didn't know what it was.

King Qi clapped his hands, his entourage unveiled the brocade cloth, and a snow-white peacock appeared in front of everyone.

"Yikes! You can still see this holy relic! And they all sighed.

Yu Yan was also very excited, the white peacock is said to have disappeared for hundreds of years, but she didn't expect to see it with her own eyes today. The proud bird gently turned its proud neck, and looked coldly at the laity around it, its long white feathers dragging behind, and the sun falling on the snowy feathers, as if to make people see the holiest and cleanest snow on the top of the mountain.

"It's a pity that it won't open the screen." King Qi walked over, took the folding fan handed by the guard, got into the iron cage, patted it lightly on the head, the three crown feathers immediately dispersed, the bright claws retreated several steps, and the snow feathers poked out of the iron cage, but they still closed tightly, refusing to let people see its peerless beauty.

"It's really a divine bird." The Queen Mother nodded in admiration.

"Also, the Queen Mother came with her nephew." King Qi took her hand again and led her forward.

There was a small pond in the queen mother's back garden, and everyone followed, but they didn't see anything by the lake.

"King Qi, what are you bringing to see the mourning family?"

King Qi dusted his fingers, several entourages immediately stepped forward, bent down and pulled in the water, before everyone could react, only to see countless crystal splashes on the water surface, spraying high to the sky, and falling vertically and horizontally, and then repeated spraying, this time when spraying into the sky, only a few explosions were heard, and there were colored streamers and water columns fused together, dyeing the water column into brilliant colors.

"Heh, what is this? It's really fresh and interesting. The Queen Mother was happy, took a few steps forward, and looked curiously.

"This is called Suizhu, it was accidentally obtained by the magician in the little nephew's mansion when he was alchemizing, and it will explode when he is put into the water, and the little nephew let them improve it a few times, and it became this Suizhu." King Qi smiled, put his hands behind his back, and looked up at the colorful water column in the sky.

"You're all on this." The Queen Mother said angrily.

"The Queen Mother doesn't underestimate this, Suizhu has a fun ......" He leaned into the Queen Mother's ear and whispered a few words, the Queen Mother suddenly looked surprised and asked in a low voice: "Really?" ”

"The Queen Mother can try." King Qi smiled mysteriously.

The queen mother's golden nails tapped on the back of his hand and whispered, "Just you ghost." ”

"Heh, is the Queen Mother praising or disparagement." King Qi smiled and clapped his hands again.

The crowd put another row of beads into the water, the water droplets poured onto the shore, the women's clothes standing in front were stained with water, and began to scream and retreat, I don't know who screamed first, the scene was suddenly chaotic, you stepped on my feet, I hit your people, she hooked her hair......

Yu Yan was standing behind the crowd, and when she saw the chaos, she hurriedly retreated, but who pushed her behind her, couldn't hold her feet, and bumped into the previous woman, who screamed, grabbed her arm with her backhand, and dragged her into the pool together.

"Quick, quick." The Queen Mother hurriedly let people go into the water.

The water in the pond is particularly icy, those beads are floating around, the water mist is too big, and she can't see things clearly, Yu Yan struggled a few times, and wanted to float up, but the woman hugged her like crazy, screaming and dragging her into the water, she couldn't break free, and was dragged by the woman and choked several times.

With a few thuds, someone swam over, and Yu Yan saw in a daze that someone slashed on the woman's arm, she let go of her hand in pain, and the palm of the hand lifted her waist and lifted her out of the water.

There was a loud bang, and she put her arm on the man's shoulder, coughing and panting with water.

The man hugged her waist like this and pushed her ashore, she relieved herself and took a look, this person covered in water was King Qi!

"Quick, take King Qi and Yu Yan to change clothes." The Queen Mother grabbed Gui Yun's hand and commanded loudly.

The palace maids helped Yu Yan up and dragged her forward, she turned her head to see that there were several women around the direction where she was standing before, Ye Sujian and Qiu Xuanling were there, Qiu Xuanling looked worried, but Ye Sujian was full of indifference and sneering.

Who pushed her?

took off her wet clothes in the side hall of the queen mother, wrapped them in a brocade quilt, and waited for the palace maids to take her clothes and come over to change them. There was a sound of laughter outside, she jumped out of the house, walked to the window and looked out, behind the dense flower trees, there were shadows, and several tall figures entered the courtyard, it was Yu Tianqi and Yu Lixiao who went down to the court!

She hid by the window and watched for a while, only to hear someone laugh loudly: "King Xiao is King Xiao, still as brave as back then, but I don't know how to spoil your beauties now?" ”

This is ridicule, and I wonder who is so afraid of death?

She didn't dare to open the window, she looked out through the gap in the window, and the person who spoke was also wearing a royal robe, it seemed that the princes in the fiefdom had returned, and she had seen few princes, and she didn't know who this was.

"What, the tenth brother is very interested in the affairs of this king's bed?" King Xiao said hoarsely, he couldn't hear the joy and anger, it was as plain as a pool of still water, and there were no waves.

The tenth brother is King Nie! Yu Xida, at most twenty years old this year, was crowned the king of Nie City two years ago.

"Second brother, don't be angry, I'm just curious." King Nie laughed loudly.

At this time, there was another sound of unevenness.

"On the couch, haven't you studied King Nie yet? The joy of men and women, women should serve men, could it be that the tenth brother usually serves women? ”

"General Hu, what do you mean?" King Nie immediately reprimanded.

"Okay, this is the Queen Mother's Palace, what kind of system is it." Yu Tianqi scolded, and everyone was quiet, and followed him to the place where the banquet was held.

Yu Yan was looking at it vigorously, and a low male voice suddenly sounded behind her.

"Yu Yan, I've changed my clothes."

She turned her head suddenly, and saw King Qi holding his clothes and looking at her with a smile.

"Daring, how can you get in? Get out of here. ”

Frightened, she pulled the quilt all the way to her neck, leaving only her head exposed, glaring at him angrily.

"I'm sorry, I just wanted to see the birthmark on your forehead, so I took the liberty of coming." He smiled and walked slowly closer to her.
