Chapter 66: The Contest Between Uncle and Nephew
"Anping, you must not be powerless against the imperial concubine." A gentle, but not stern, voice was heard.
Bai Jingyin looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to find that Yuan Ruiming was sitting on the right side of a man in a dark green python robe with facial features. The facial features are somewhat similar, but the years have added a sense of calmness and solemnity, and from the four-clawed flying dragon embroidered on his clothes, he knows that this is the rumored Prince Rong who has been staying in Dongli Kingdom.
But the county lord of Anping only snorted and turned his head, looking at it as if he was angry with Prince Rong.
"It's okay, Anping is still young and willful, so why blame Uncle Huang." Yuan Ruiming said lightly.
"Seeing that the emperor and Anping brothers and sisters have a deep relationship, the minister is really comforted." Prince Rong drank a glass of wine, looked at the fireworks display outside the palace wall for the joy of the monarch and the people, and suddenly sighed: "Although the emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, now Daqi is the prosperity of the country and the people, which is better than that of the imperial brother. Looking at the mountains and rivers of this homeland all the way, there are ministers everywhere who can't feel in Dongli. ”
"Uncle Huang praised, I just obeyed the old system of the first emperor, and it is not my own work to have today's prosperous world." Yuan Ruiming lowered his eyes, unable to distinguish his expression of joy and anger.
"It's a pity that the minister, as the emperor's uncle, is far away in Dongli, and he is ashamed that he can't help the emperor govern the world." Prince Rong looked at the emperor, but there was a little shame in his eyes.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem."
A sudden coughing sound broke the delicate atmosphere. I saw that Bai Jingyin looked like she had been robbed of food, blushing and covering her mouth to stop her voice, and the palace maid next to her hurriedly brought a glass of water, and she barely recovered after drinking it.
"It seems that Concubine Jing has something to say." Yuan Ruiming looked at her, looking extremely tolerant and generous, "You don't have to be polite at the family banquet, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
"Concubine ......" She didn't have anything to say at all, but she was just laughed at by the interesting conversation between the uncle and nephew on this day, and she was almost choked to death by a chopstick Wensi tofu.
But seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Bai Jingyin had no choice but to bite the bullet and say:
"The concubine just thinks that what Prince Rong said just now is not very appropriate."
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Prince Rong's face gradually stopped, and his complexion gradually sank.
"I don't know what the concubine thinks is wrong with this king."
The civil and military officials are all talking in private about whether this concubine Jing is good-looking or talented, and she wants to be grandstanding, and everyone can see Prince Rong's intentions, but even the emperor can't say it clearly, but she is afraid that this concubine and the favor of the Bai family will come to an end.
Bai Jingyin was still calm, and said loudly:
"The prince said that he was ashamed because he couldn't help the emperor govern the world, but he wanted his concubines to say that the most unashamed thing in the world was the prince. In order to maintain diplomatic relations between the two countries, stop fighting, and settle the people's livelihood, the prince would rather leave his hometown and take my Daqi's friendship to Dongli. ”
Prince Rong turned the wine glass in his hand, as if he was smiling, but there was a dark shadow under his eyes.
On the surface, he sang praises and virtues, but he couldn't say a word if he wanted to go back to Daqi, it seems that he was right, this Jing Guifei really can't stay
。
"That's a good point." Yuan Ruiming applauded, and when the audience saw that the emperor had spoken, he also raised his glass to Prince Rong's small family and praised everyone's behavior. "Uncle Huang has contributed a lot to Daqi, I will be crowned King Zhongyi, and then give the county lord's mansion to live in Kyoto, so that Uncle Huang can rest assured."
got the false title of a loyal king but lost a daughter, Prince Gong had no other way but to thank Dade for his gratitude.
"In the past, I only heard that the emperor had a brilliant concubine Jing, but when I saw it today, I realized that what I said was true. I heard that he also specially found a dancing girl with unique skills from the people for the Qianqiu Banquet, and his intentions for the emperor can be seen. ”
Bai Jingyin bowed slightly, looking very humble.
"It's all within the concubine's share."
"But this time I returned to the palace, and the lord of Dongli also asked his ministers to prepare a congratulatory gift for the emperor's Qianqiu Festival, which seems to be in the same place with the concubine."
said that Prince Rong clapped his hands,
The music started, several men dressed in Dongli costumes stepped on the drum beat, and the majesty of the music coincided, they stretched out their arms and flew into the air and raised their legs between every movement is powerful, showing the beauty of masculinity.
"This man can dance, too." Chengying looked very curious when he saw it for the first time, after all, it was impossible for there to be a male dancer in Daqi except for some special place.
Bai Jingyin made a 'shhhh
"Maybe the emperor will be good at this, let's see through it and don't say it."
Chengying rolled her eyes widely, and didn't want to say anything to her.
The melody takes a sharp turn at the top, and then becomes tactful and lingering, with the feeling of falling cherry blossoms and blowing snow. I saw two dancers holding up a jade plate, which was painted with glowing fireflies, so it was like a bright moon in the sky.
The dancing girl dressed in white slowly stood up, her toes were light, her body was slender, and she danced freely on the jade plate.
"To be able to dance on such a fragile jade plate, that woman must be very light." Rao is always taciturn, Yu Qiujin couldn't help but sigh at this moment.
Zhao Feiyan vs. Yang Yuhuan?
Bai Jingyin suddenly felt interesting, could it be that he really had the same heart and mind as the lord of Dongli who was far away in the world, and he happened to sit up on the 'dance'.
"The courtier, Xue Ji, wishes my emperor's holy body eternal peace, long live a thousand years." At the end of the dance, the woman stepped forward to say goodbye, her voice was the same as her name, clear but not cold, soft but not demonic.
"Courtier?"
"Emperor Qi, Xue Ji is the adopted daughter of Dongli National Teacher, because of her admiration for the emperor's Shengming Wei'an, she specially asked the lord of the country to dance to enjoy the king's heart."
Yuan Ruiming was silent, seemingly unmoved by the confession.
But that Xue Ji didn't feel ashamed like an ordinary girl, she just stood quietly in place, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.
"Seal the snow concubine and give you the residence in the Lingxue Pavilion." Yuan Ruiming said.
"Your Majesty." Yukihime curtsied.
Prince Rong was relieved to see that the emperor had accepted Xue Ji into the harem, and said that he would bring the good news back to Dongli, which was also the emperor's importance to Dongli.
"How good, you can earn an ice beauty as a concubine on your birthday." Bai Jingyin has eaten and drunk enough, and now he is watching the drama with all his heart.
"Miss, you can still laugh, if the dance you arrange can't compare to Dongli for a while, it will be a loss of great country demeanor!" After watching Xue Ji's exquisite jade plate dance, Chengying was worried and anxious to stand up.
"Don't worry." Bai Jingyin squeezed her hand.
Don't worry, the dance process she arranges doesn't matter, as long as she takes over the surprise.
"Your Majesty, the concubines are a little too drunk and want to go back to the palace first." Bai Jingyin said very calmly Chaoyuan Ruiming, and suddenly felt that he seemed to be too sober, and he covered his forehead with hindsight, and sighed.
