Chapter 343: Stunned
Yin Xinxuan, who was sitting on the main seat, was a little stunned at first when he saw the scene of a hundred birds and a phoenix, and then he smiled even more happily.
It wasn't until Shen Lian and Ning Qingming finished playing that the birds that surrounded them circled around them a few more times before they dispersed.
"Good!" Yin Xinxuan looked at Ning Qingming and Shen Lian, clapped his hands and exclaimed, "The scene of me only being a hundred birds and a phoenix in the past is a legend, it turns out that there are really people in this world who can play music to such an extent, Ning Aiqing and Miss Shen are really amazing and gorgeous, which is an eye-opener for me!" Although he agreed to let Shen Lian and Ning Qingming play together at the beginning, not because he thought that Shen Lian's piano skills were outstanding, but the previous scene made him more satisfied.
"The Holy One has praised it."
Shen Lian got up and said in unison with Ning Qingming.
The voice was neither high nor low, not hurried, neither overjoyed nor too cold, and seemed very calm.
Although the previous scene made her very surprised, but Yin Xinxuan's praise, she really didn't care too much.
She agreed to play, but it was just for her brother and father.
"Your brother and sister can let me hear such beautiful music and enjoy such a strange scene, I will definitely be rewarded."
Yin Xinxuan looked at the two of them and said with a smile, then his eyes fell on Shen Lian and asked, "Miss Shen, what do you want me to reward?" ”
"The Holy One is the king of a country, and the courtiers have the honor to play a song for the Holy One, which is the supreme honor, and where else do you need any reward."
Shen Lian said respectfully.
There was a chill in her heart, she never thought that she could say something like this that would give her goosebumps.
"Sure enough, she is worthy of being the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she really knows the general situation, and she has a degree of advance and retreat!" Yin Xinxuan looked at Shen Lian and said appreciatively, "But since I said that there is a reward, then I will definitely reward it." ”
He paused for a moment before continuing, "I have heard that Miss Shen has always disliked red makeup and loves medicinal herbs, so I will give you a copy of all the precious medicinal materials in the palace." ”
The previous scene made him feel very good, and he didn't mind, and rewarded him with more things.
And since you have rewarded it, you naturally want to reward something that the other party likes.
Listening to Yin Xinxuan's words, Shen Lian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he saluted Yin Xinxuan again, and said, "Thank you for the holy reward, the courtiers are grateful." ”
Her words this time were quite heartfelt, Yin Xinxuan was able to give her so many rare medicinal materials, she was naturally very grateful to him in her heart, after all, some medicinal materials were difficult for even her to find.
Yin Xinxuan bowed slightly, letting Shen Lian return to his seat, he set his eyes on Ning Qingming again, Ning Qingming knelt directly on the ground, and said loudly, "Thank you for the holy reward, Weichen has something to ask for......" His voice trembled slightly because of excitement, he participated in the scientific examination and won the champion, it was for this matter, and now, he finally has the opportunity to complete this matter.
It's just that before he could finish speaking, Yin Xinxuan had already interrupted him with a smile, "Ning Aiqing doesn't have to worry, don't go and listen to what I plan to give you first, and see if it suits your heart." ”
As soon as Yin Xinxuan said this, although Ning Qingming couldn't hold on, he could only say, "Listen to what the Holy Lord said." ”
After all, Yin Xinxuan is the Ninth Five-Year Venerable, although he is polite now, but it is not something he can anger.
"Ning Aiqing is young and promising, not only civil and military, but also suave.
I know that you are not yet married, my sister Princess Qinxue is outstanding, smart and clever, I have always regarded it as a treasure, and I have not yet been married, I want to recruit Aiqing as a concubine, I don't know what Ning Aiqing wants? Yin Xinxuan looked at Ning Qingming, his eyes full of smiles.
He is becoming more and more satisfied with Ning Qingming, not only because of his talent, but also because of his brother-sister relationship with Shen Lian.
Hearing Yin Xinxuan's words, everyone immediately cast complicated glances such as envy and jealousy at Ning Qingming, princess, that's a princess.
Who doesn't know that the princess is the only sister of the saint, the queen mother, the saint, and the prince of Chen all love her, and it is a great thing to be her concubine.
Yin Chen was still drinking wine unhurriedly, but after hearing what Yin Xinxuan said, he suddenly clenched the wine glass in his hand, and his brows furrowed tightly.
He didn't care what Yin Xinxuan was thinking, but Qin Xue was his only sister.
Let Ning Qingming be a colt, if Qin Xue is willing, he will not intervene, but if Qin Xue is unwilling, he will not have to contradict Yin Xinxuan once.
After listening to Yin Xinxuan's words, Shen Lian immediately turned her head and raised her eyebrows at Yin Qinxue beside her, and said with a smile, "What? Qin Xue, did you tell the imperial brother about your liking for my senior brother? "Yin Xinxuan hadn't seen Qin Xue and his senior brother together, so he shouldn't have noticed that Qin Xue liked his senior brother.
And now that he has opened his mouth to recruit his senior brother as a colt, in her opinion, this should be Qin Xue telling Yin Xinxuan her own intentions.
Yin Qinxue's face was still a little pale, she didn't look at Shen Lian, but stayed on Ning Qingming in the center of the field.
After hearing Shen Lian's words, she only shook her head slightly and did not speak.
And her hand shrunk in her sleeve couldn't help but clench it tightly, and the nervous anticipation in her heart was faintly uneasy, these emotions were mixed together, so that she didn't have the heart to pay attention to other things at all.
Seeing Yin Qinxue shaking her head, Shen Lian immediately frowned, and also set her eyes on her senior brother.
If this matter was not mentioned by Qin Xue, could it be that Yin Xinxuan wanted to use Qin Xue to win over his senior brother? And Ning Qingming, who was in the spotlight, was stunned on the spot as if he had heard a thunderbolt from the sky.
The two words, the princess and the colt, seemed so strange that he couldn't understand them.
After being stunned for a while, he subconsciously looked at Shen Lian.
He only had her in his heart from beginning to end, and what he wanted to ask for just now was to dissolve the marriage contract between her and Yin Chen and remove the biggest obstacle between them.
He returned to the capital, studied poetry and books hard, and worked hard to win the champion, which is the so-called thing.
It's just that he didn't expect that the Holy Lord would want to recruit him as a colt! If he agrees, how can he be willing, if he doesn't agree, it will be a violation of the holy will, and it may affect the entire Shangshu Mansion.
When he looked at it, he not only saw Shen Lian's worried gaze, but also saw Yin Qinxue's somewhat pale and beautiful face beside her.
Ning Qingming retracted his gaze, and then as if he had made up his mind, he bowed to Yin Xinxuan, and said loudly, "Thank you for the good intentions of the saint, ...... minister" But before he could finish speaking, Yin Qinxue suddenly stood up from his seat and knocked down a piece of the teacup and wine jug on the table, and the table was suddenly in a mess.
Everyone who originally set their eyes on Ning Qingming all looked at Yin Qinxue at this time, with different expressions.
As a princess, Yin Qinxue has always behaved elegantly, and she has never seen her look so out of shape.
Yin Qinxue didn't care at all about everyone's gaze at her, but said to Yin Xinxuan, "Brother Huang, I suddenly felt a little unwell and wanted to go back to the palace first. ”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Yin Xinxuan to speak, she left directly.
Yin Qinxue hurriedly walked out, with all kinds of emotions of disappointment, sadness and pain in her heart.
How she hoped that Ning Qingming would agree to be her colt without hesitation, but when he looked at Shen Lian's gentle gaze during the ensemble, it already made her a little uneasy.
The act of subconsciously looking at Shen Lian just now made her even more uneasy.
That's why she interrupted him, because she didn't dare to listen.
Even though she knew that he only had a very small chance of daring to defy the Holy Will, she still didn't dare to take risks, let alone really hear the words of rejection coming out of his mouth, so she simply chose to leave.
Shen Lian didn't expect Yin Qinxue to get up and leave suddenly, she also got up from her seat and said to Yin Xinxuan, "Qiqi Sheng, the courtiers know a little about medicine, why don't you let the courtiers go to treat Princess Qinxue?" ”
"That's hard Miss Shen."
Yin Xinxuan bowed his head slightly, and agreed to Shen Lian's proposal.
He also knew in his heart that Yin Qinxue should not be unwell, but found an excuse to leave.
