Chapter 43: When the competition is underway
Three days passed in a flash.
During this period, Princess Pearl was arranged by the queen to live in an empty palace at will. Although she was named a concubine by the emperor, due to the existence of a competition, the ceremony of sealing the concubine was not held. The emperor didn't show much of an opinion on this, and he agreed with the queen's approach.
Today, in Fengyi Palace, all the concubines are very excited for the competition. Princess Pearl still wears a pale red veil, and her half-concealed snow-white skin is particularly conspicuous against the red veil.
The queen pointed to the sharp phoenix armor and tapped rhythmically: "Your Majesty, the concubines in the harem and the last girls who are interested in challenging the competition have all arrived." ”
"Well, that's what begins."
Princess Mingzhu stepped forward half a step forward with preparation: "The concubine has seen the emperor, and this competition will start with the concubine first, which will save a waste of time." If someone wants to challenge me after listening to one of my songs, they can say so. ”
She successfully ignited the anger of the concubines present. Afterwards, the musicians who accompanied the music also played the music one after another, and the slow singing resounded throughout the palace. The song is very beautiful, and the lyrics sung make people feel as if they are in the midst of a harvest joy scene with a strong sense of autumn.
However, the concubines in the hall who were prepared for the first competition all looked ugly after hearing this. It's not that Princess Mingzhu sings badly, but she sings really well! and Chun Ronghua, who won the favor with his songs.
The end of the song.
"The concubine is ugly, and this song is called the Golden Autumn of the Prosperous Age." Princess Mingzhu smiled proudly: "If there are still people who think that they are better than this palace, they can do it." ”
Concubine Shu has a calm face, if Chun Ronghua was still there, she would definitely be able to suppress the Pearl Princess in front of her, but unfortunately Chun Ronghua's beautiful voice has been scrapped by the queen.
"Your Majesty, if you want to come to this competition, it is the concubine who wins."
"Don't worry." At the critical moment, Fang Guiren slowly walked out of a bunch of concubines: "Your Majesty, the concubines are not talented, but I also want to give it a try." ”
Fang Guiren is a concubine who has recently gained power, and she made a name for herself in the harem at the last Mid-Autumn Festival. Originally, the queen was still very optimistic about her, but just now Princess Mingzhu's performance, which is better and which is worse can be distinguished.
The courage of the nobles of Qianyi Mofang to stand up was a little surprised, and at the same time, the mood was much better.
"Yes."
"Concubine Xie Emperor."
Fang Guiren smiled, and the music sounded. The gentle and desolate singing voice passed through the entire hall, and the cold autumn heart was cold, sad and helpless but with an expectant mood. Although her voice was not as good as that of Princess Pearl, the gorgeous and beautiful tune of this song greatly compensated for this shortcoming.
"Mother."
"How is that possible!"
Princess Mingzhu stepped back in disbelief, and the palace maid Ruohua hurriedly helped her. This scene fell in the eyes of the concubines on the other side, and they all pursed their lips and smiled.
And the more the queen listened, the more tense her face became. When she saw that Fang Guiren was timid and cowardly, she was born with a good voice, so she specially found someone to teach her secretly. I didn't expect that Fang Guiren would have such a talent, if he continued to indulge it......
At the end of another song, the emperor was very happy, and immediately praised the nobles a few words. Princess Mingzhu, who was left behind, had an extremely ugly face, she took a deep breath and slowly calmed down, and her eyes mischievously discharged at Qianyimo.
"Your Majesty, in the tune, the concubines are willing to admit defeat. But if this song is sung by a concubine, it will definitely be more fantastical and beautiful, and the sound will enter the hearts of the people. Therefore, the concubine thinks that this is a draw and is the most suitable. ”
As soon as these words came out, the concubines present couldn't help but scold in their hearts. Qian Yimo looked directly at Princess Mingzhu, and the corners of his lips were slightly curved.
"I think so, too."
When Princess Mingzhu heard this, her confidence suddenly skyrocketed, her cheeks turned crimson, and she couldn't wait to ask for her own life to start the second competition.
The second competition, good dancing. Princess Mingzhu danced a fan dance. is also amazing and gorgeous, so that a cadre of concubines and others retreated.
Just when Princess Mingzhu was proud, Mei Guiren stood up.
"Your Majesty, the concubines are also willing to present a song called Sword Dance."
……
The sword dance is very beautiful, and the noble people use soft swords, which go hand in hand with rigidity and softness, which makes people feel incredible. Even Liu Ruyue in the corner felt a little shocked when she saw it. That's a sword dance! As far as she knew, the dance workshop in the city did not specialize in this aspect of teaching, and she was just talking casually at that time, but she didn't expect that Mei Guiren could really dance with swords.
In the end, it was obvious that Mei Guiren won. Princess Mingzhu was secretly angry, and she could only pretend to admit defeat generously for the sake of today's plan.
She stared at Mei Guiren and looked at it carefully, and the more she looked at it, the more unpleasant it became, especially those charming eyes that made her want to dig them out.
"I didn't expect that the concubines around the emperor are all versatile, and this time the concubines are willing to admit defeat. I just don't know what this sister is called. ”
"The concubine is a noble person, and she has seen the mother."
"Flattering nobleman? Sure enough, the person lives up to his name. Princess Mingzhu said and took off her veil: "Your Majesty, please forgive the concubine's previous faux pas." The concubines have always worn veils before, but also to let you see the good side at the most beautiful moment. ”
Under the veil, with a beautiful appearance, Princess Pearl really shines like a pearl. She has always been very confident in her appearance, but she didn't expect that Qian Yimo, who was seated, was just amazed when she saw it.
"Princess Pearl is well-deserved to be called 'Pearl'. I am quite moved by everything you have done, and I hereby give the title 'Snow', and the concubine ceremony will be officially held tomorrow, and it will be dispersed today. ”
Princess Mingzhu, who was newly crowned Concubine Xue, shouted unwillingly: "Your Majesty, although the concubines are willing to admit defeat, there is still one last competition." For thousands of years, it has been said to be an intractable 'God's problem', don't you want to see it? ”
"Huh?"
Concubine Shu followed closely and retorted gently: "Even so, it is also Qing Liguo." You are already the emperor's concubine, and you will be a member of the Great Thousand Kingdom in the future, and you have nothing to do with Qing Liguo. ”
Xue Fei raised her chin slightly: "You are ......"
"She's a concubine, and she's right. During this time, you should also move around the palace more, so that you won't even be able to tell who is when you get it. ”
"What the emperor said is very true. But the concubine has brought the treasure of Qingli to revitalize the country, if you don't uncover the mystery in public, after a long time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to settle in the future. ”
Concubine Xue is inexplicably aggrieved, Concubine Shu? She kind of remembered this man.
Qian Yimo raised his eyebrows after hearing this, yesterday he received a letter from the lord of Qingli Country, and the words in the letter can be seen that the lord of the country attaches great importance to Princess Mingzhu. Now that the relationship between the two countries is harmonious, he doesn't want to make any trouble because of a woman.
"Your Majesty, the concubine is quite interested in the 'God's Problem' of Qing Liguo, and she has already thought of a way to solve it, hoping that the emperor is willing to let the concubine give it a try."
A crisp plea came from the corner. Looking for prestige, all the concubines looked at it, and it was Liu Guiren who said this!
