CHAPTER XVIII

Shen Nian looked at Xie Daoyou who stood up, his whole body was extraordinary, he really didn't expect such a person to be in the same vein as that Xie Daolan, with the same father and mother, this is really interesting. It's really a dragon giving birth to nine sons, each of which is different.

"Oh? Are you the eldest daughter of the Xie family?" Shangguan Zhifei looked at Xie Daoyou, who stood up, and asked.

"Exactly." Xie Daoyou replied slightly.

"Okay, then you can go down and get ready."

"Your Majesty." Xie Daoyou turned around and left to prepare, his posture was ethereal, and he didn't know how many official children he had taken away.

Shen Nian watched Xie Daoyou leave, and how many official children looked at her departing figure, and unconsciously looked at Gao Lingyan.

Gao Lingyan tasted the wine slowly, without the slightest interference from the outside world, and suddenly felt a gaze from a certain direction, Gao Lingyan immediately raised his eyes and looked back. Shen Nian immediately lowered his head and ate the vegetables. Shen Nian felt that his face was burning, why do you want to look at Brother Yan, no, just look at it, why do you have to bow your head, isn't it three hundred taels of silver here. Ay? What three hundred taels, no. The more Shen Nian thought about it, the redder his face became, and he didn't dare to raise his head.

Gao Lingyan held the wine glass in his hand, turned it slightly, and the corners of his mouth bent up unconsciously, Nian'er is this shy, and she is also jealous, it seems that Nian'er also has her own in her heart Heh, Gao Lingyan looked at Shen Nian's rare little daughter from a distance, and there was a feeling in his heart that he wanted to rush over and hug her. Gao Lingyan smiled happily and looked at Shen Nian from afar.

Shen Feng saw the present from the beginning, the corners of his mouth twitched, his little sister just came back, and she was about to be hooked up by this Gao family kid, no, absolutely not. When he looked up at his eldest brother Shen Qing, he saw Shen Qing holding his forehead helplessly.

......

When the music started, I saw Xie Daoyou wearing a blue dance costume, dancing his limbs with the music, the small waist that could be grasped, the long black hair like a waterfall, and his smile were like fairies in the sea, which could not be ignored.

Shen Nian had already cleaned up his mood, and he also admired Xie Daoyou's dancing. But he just didn't look in the direction of Gao Lingyan. I have to say that this Xie Daoyou looks really beautiful, Shen Nian has always known that he is beautiful, especially since he was a child, the master has used various medicinal wines to maintain his body, it can be said that Shen Nian himself is a beauty, but Shen Nian looks at Xie Daoyou now, and feels that Xie Daoyou's beauty is different from the beauties he has seen in the past, this is a charming beauty, a fairy-like woman.

Shen Nian bent the corners of his mouth slightly, and looked at the eyes of the straight lines next to him, and knew that this dance was afraid that he had hooked the eyes of many people.

Unsurprisingly, this will be a fierce opponent. Hehe. Interesting and interesting.

Xie Daoyou felt the sight next to him, that's right, he decided to be the first to appear for this effect, so that everyone only remembered his dance, and the rest of the show was not enough to impress them. The name of Xie Daoyou of the Xie family will be known to everyone today.

Bite...... After the dance, thank you for your blessings.

"Okay." Shangguan Zhifei applauded. "Not bad, not bad. Come on, reward. ”

"Emperor Xie, may the emperor live a long life, and I will be in peace with the country and the people of the Eastern Dynasty." Thank you for a bow, and slowly retreated a few steps back. The moment he turned around, he looked in the direction of Shen Nian.

Shen Nian felt the gaze and smiled.

Shangguan Hanao looked at the departing figure, and his eyes flashed with the taste of ambition. This should be what the crown princess looks like. The queen thought back to Xie Daoyou's performance and appearance just now, she was neither humble nor arrogant, she had her own charm, and then looked at the appearance of her prince, and she was sure in her heart. originally planned to use Feng Nanmin of the Feng family as the crown princess, but just now a tiger scared Feng Nanmin and fainted, which was really embarrassing for the Feng family. And look at this Xie Daoyou, and it is said that now the Xie family seems to be Xie Daoyou's eldest brother Xie Daoyun is in charge, but the power is basically in the hands of Xie Daoyou, and if he marries the Xie family.

Concubine Xi knew what the queen was thinking when she looked at the queen. wants to marry the Xie family, this Xie Daoyou is so easy to master. However, it is indeed good to marry the Xie family, but his own son will definitely make things difficult in every way, forget it, let's watch the show. It's not that Concubine Xi didn't want to stuff it directly to Shangguan Hansu, but she did it before, and even the Wang family intervened, but the final result was nothing more than making the royal family's face look bad The number of people lost was too big, and even her own emperor secretly "attacked" the Wang family. Alas. Concubine Xi sighed leisurely, and glanced at the detached worldly face of the fourth prince Shangguan Hansu, but she didn't understand how she gave birth to an "immortal".

Shangguan Hanbing watched Xie Daoyou leave, as if looking in a certain direction, Shangguan Hanbing looked over. Nian'er.

Shen Nianyao and Shangguan Hanbing raised their glasses, and the two of them smiled from afar, all in the wine.

Shangguan Hanheng, who was sitting next to Shangguan Hanbing, just turned the wine glass in his hand and didn't say anything, but his eyes rolled, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

followed by the performances of various official ladies, but just as Xie Daoyou thought, everyone still remembered Xie Daoyou's dancing just now.

Xie Daoyou looked at the reactions of the people around him, and calculated that it was almost over, so he nodded at Xie Daolan, Xie Daolan understood, and stood up.

Towards the emperor, "Your Majesty, I don't have the eldest sister's dancing posture, I would like to present my own inscription, I wish the country and the people peace and security, and the people live and work in peace and contentment." ”

"Okay." As soon as Shangguan Zhifei waved his hand, someone offered pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Everyone watched as the palace people placed a table in the center of the main hall, and a white rice paper was placed on the table, and the rice paper was placed in the middle of the table, and a sharpened inkstone and a brush were placed on each side of the rice paper. Everyone couldn't help but be amazed at how they put two pens.

Shen Nian looked at the current Xie Daolan and smiled. Look at Xie Daoyou, who is looking at Xie Daolan from a distance. This Xie Daoyou is very smart, he was the first to dance just now, leaving a deep impression on everyone, so that everyone can't pay attention to the next performance, when everyone's attention is finally about to disperse, and then let his own Xie Daolan perform "two-handed book", it is said that this Xie Daolan's calligraphy is taught by a famous master, even if Xie Daolan is a brutal person, but she is also the second daughter of the Xie family of the four major families, how can she not be good. Everyone was pleasantly surprised by Xie Daolan again, and then the next other performances could not be recognized by everyone again, even if Xie Daolan's performance was not as exciting as Xie Daoyou, but it was enough to affect the people behind him. Thank you for your great idea. I have to say that this Xie Daoyou is very smart. It seems that the two daughters of the Xie family are going to be famous in the capital today.

Shen Nian's eyes were full of interest.

But seeing Xie Daolan holding the brush with both hands at the same time, he began to write. Even Shen Nian couldn't help but nodded, I have to say, this Xie Daolan really has that meaning.

But Shen Nian didn't look at Xie Daolan for too long, but looked in the direction of the Western Dynasty. Xi Chaoguo looked at an envoy this time, and saw that the appearance of this envoy should be a civil minister, Shen Nian looked at the appearance and posture of this envoy, and shook his head slightly, no. Then he looked at the little guy behind the envoy. Hey? Look at the posture of the envoy again. I see. A big smile bloomed on Shen Nian's face.

I saw that there were four small servants standing behind this envoy, each of whom looked like a normal conversation, but this envoy seemed to be sitting very relaxed, but if you looked carefully, you would find that this envoy was eating the food on the right hand side in front of him, and he put down two chopsticks after eating. Even if he should have meant it, he should have eaten it all, but only eating the right side proves that he unconsciously wants to show it to anyone.

Looking at the four people behind him, there seems to be some connection between the three people, which is the sensitivity that a "god operator" should have, which proves that the tacit understanding generated by the three people often going out on missions together, that is, the aura. And the "fourth man" behind the right hand side of this envoy, although it seems to be blended in, is actually "excluded." The other three didn't look scared, only the envoy looked nervous. It seems to be him.

Shen Nian looked at the fourth guard, and when the guard looked up at Shen Nian, Shen Nian stuck out his tongue at the guard. The guard immediately stood with his head bowed respectfully, as if nothing had happened, but the corners of his mouth were slightly bent.

I didn't expect this little girl to see it.

That's right, this person is the senior brother who gave Shen Nian's food box, Murong Xun, the prince of the Western Dynasty.

"Not bad." Shangguan Zhifei looked at the poem Xie Daolan had finished writing and nodded in praise. "Reward."

"Yes, this Xie family's tutor is really good." The queen nodded yes as well. Since you want to marry the Xie family, you naturally want to give this second miss of the Xie family.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. The people's women are ugly. Xie Dao Lanfu thanked him, turned around and returned to his seat, and the moment he turned around, he also glanced at Shen Nian, full of threat and pride.

Shen Nian shook his head speechlessly, he was really on the same page as the Xie family.

Xie Daolan returned to his seat, his face was smug that he couldn't hide, and at the same time he looked at Gao Lingyan, hoping that the other party could look at him and smile. But naturally, Gao Lingyan didn't look at her at all, and looked at Shen Nian the whole time. Xie Daolan lowered his head, his heart full of anger. Xie Daoyou slowly put his hand on Xie Daolan's hand as a sign of comfort.

Shen Nian saw that Xie Daolan was just threatening with his eyes, but he didn't make any actual movements, this was a bad thing. Shen Nian raised his eyebrows and thought.

Xie Daolan also wanted to propose to let Shen Nian perform, but remembering what the eldest sister said the day before, how could a woman who could solve the chess game of Li Lao and play with the four princes have nothing to do. can't give Shen Nian a chance to perform, let her be in the limelight as soon as she comes back. Xie Daolan gritted his teeth, there is an opportunity, Shen Nian, wait and see. Xie Daolan looked at Shen Nian in the distance, full of threat and killing intent.

Shen Nian raised his eyebrows, killing intent? Now the woman, boring. Shen Nian shook his head and ignored Xie Daolan.

Shen Qing and Shen Feng didn't think so, they actually dared to threaten their little sister, this Xie Daolan seemed to be alive to the end.

Gao Lingyan frowned, Xie family.

Murong Xun's eyes were dark, and the junior sister had just come back and pulled hatred. Oh, I don't know how thick the sky is.

Xie Daolan didn't know how many people hated him at this time.

"Su'er." Shangguan Zhifei suddenly spoke.

"Father-Emperor". Shangguan Hansu stood up and saluted.

"Today is my birthday, and you have just come back. It's been a long time since I've heard your flute. ”

"Yes." Shangguan Hansu saluted. Suddenly it was like remembering something.

"Father, Erchen wants Miss Shen San to be with Erchen."

"Oh?" Shangguan Zhifei narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Miss Shen San?"

"Exactly."

"Okay."

"Thank you, Father."

Shen Nian also stood up, "Thank you." ”

Shen Nian looked at Shangguan Hansu gratefully, he was thinking about how to perform, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come up. I really know myself.

Shangguan Hansu winked at Shen Nian, and Shen Nian bent the corners of his mouth.

Gao Lingyan held his forehead, how long has Nian'er been back, why are there so many peach blossoms.

"Come on, give the 'Jiaoweiqin' in the treasure house to Miss Shen San." Shangguan Zhifei suddenly spoke, and everyone was shocked.

"Yes." Duke Gao took the order to go down. But after Gonggong Gao went down, he didn't go to the treasure house, but went to the imperial study in the back, and today he let himself take out the Jiaowei Qin early today, for Miss Shen San.

After a while, Gao Gonggong put the piano on the piano table.

Said respectfully to Shen Nian, "Miss Shen San."

"Thank you, Grandpa Gao." Shen Nian replied gently.

Gonggong Gao smiled, walked to Shangguan Zhifei's position and continued to stand.

The queen and Concubine Xi did frown, hasn't this Jiaowei Qin Saint always been very precious, how did you take it out today.

Mei Shang looked at Shen Nian sitting behind the piano table, his eyes were full of nostalgia, but he quickly covered it up.

Shen Nian didn't pay attention to everyone's thoughts, and just plucked the strings with his hands. Randomly looked up at Shangguan Hansu, and the two nodded to each other.

"Zheng." With the fusion of the sound of the piano and the flute, everyone seemed to have come to a bamboo forest, the bamboo in the bamboo forest is very high, as if it can reach the sky, each verdant is extremely green, and there is a stream next to it, and the stream is so clear that you can see the stones inside. When the breeze blows, the air is filled with fragrance, and the mood is at peace at this moment, this is the hermit's state of mind. Everyone seemed to be intoxicated with a bamboo forest. Even Shen Nian and Shangguan Hansu didn't notice when they stopped.

I don't know who suddenly applauded, breaking the silence, and then the whole hall was applauded and admired.

Originally, when Shangguan Hansu took the initiative to find someone to play in the ensemble, everyone was already surprised. Because Shangguan Hansu has always had the name of "Le Sheng". If others think that he got it in the name of the prince, it is wrong.

The four princes march outside all year round. once concealed his name and competed with many "Lejia Dacheng", but in the end, the other party was convinced, and finally was regarded as "Lesheng". Later, his identity was revealed, and he was actually the fourth prince of the Eastern Dynasty, and it can be said that a word of the four princes can make people who learn music in the world surrender. Now someone can play with the fourth prince Shangguan Hansu so persistently and perfectly, it is really amazing.

Shen Nian and Shangguan Hansu looked at each other, and there seemed to be a light flowing in their eyes. But each other knows that this is not love, this is ...... Bosom friend.

It can be said that today's performance has made Shen Nian stand in a very high position in the hearts of many old civil officials, such a woman, such a hermit's style.

"The Shen family has a woman like this, and there should be no regrets." Shangguan Zhifei clapped his hands and said.

Shen Nian and Shangguan Zhifei saluted together, "Thank you, Father." "Your Majesty."

"I think this Jiaowei Qin will not be submerged only in the hands of Miss Shen San. I am giving you this instrument today. Shangguan Zhifei smiled and looked at Shen Nian.

Shen Nian saluted, "Thank you...... Emperor. ”

Shangguan Zhifei smiled and looked at Shen Nian.

Concubine Xi thought that if Shen Nian married her son, it would also be the Shen family and the Wang family. It's also a great help to the emperor. The more Xi Guifei thought about it, the more happy she became.

The queen glanced at the crown prince Shangguan Hanao, and saw that Shangguan Hanao had an inevitable gaze in his eyes.

Shangguan Hanao has liked to compare with Shangguan Hansu since he was a child, the queen and Xi Guifei, the Feng family and the Wang family, himself and the four princes. And what made him even more unbearable was that Shangguan Hansu didn't seem to care about himself at all. In this regard, Shangguan Hanao wants to compare even more.

Shangguan Hanao saw that the ensemble between Shen Nian and Shangguan Hansu was so perfect, and his heart was even more heartfelt to fight Shen Nian over.

Shen Nian returned to his seat, raised his head and unconsciously looked at Gao Lingyan, looking at Gao Lingyan's admiring gaze at him, Shen Nian suddenly felt that this was the best gift.

At this moment, a palace maid was pouring wine for Shen Nian, and accidentally sprinkled the wine on Shen Nian's skirt.

"The slave is guilty, the slave is guilty." The maid knelt on the ground.

Shen Nian glanced at the official woman who was still performing in the center of the hall.

Shen Nian just said, "It's okay. ”

Mei Shang saw this scene, frowned, and said to his handmaid Fan Yi behind him, "Take Nian'er to change clothes."

"Yes." Pink bowed her head. Mei Shang was afraid that this kind of thing would happen, so she had already prepared other clothes.

The palace maid knelt on the ground and trembled. Shen Nian got up and went out with the pink clothes, and the palace maid also followed.

Shen Qing wanted to go out with him, but Mei Shang stopped him. If nothing happens, then the little sister changes her clothes and the big brother will follow, and it will be tongue-in-cheek. If something happens, Pink Yi's martial arts are enough to call people.

Shen Qing nodded and sat down, but glanced at Gao Lingyan. Gao Lingyan nodded at Shen Qing and signaled that it was okay.

It seems that someone has acted.

Shen Nian followed Fan Yi to get the clothes, thinking that his mother was really prescient.

The palace maid saluted, "Miss Shen San, please follow me to change clothes." ”

Fan Yi wanted to say something, but Shen Nian shook her head at her.

"Let's go." Shen Nian nodded at the palace maid. The palace maid left with Shen Nian.

Turning around, Shen Nian followed the palace maid to a palace. "Fanyi, you're waiting for me outside." Shen Nian commanded.

"Yes." Pink nodded, but still looked at the palace maid vigilantly.

The palace maid opened the door, bowed her head and said to Shen Nian, "Miss Shen San, you can change your clothes here."

Shen Nian nodded and went in. The maid closed the door outside and left.

Shen Nian looked around the room and nodded, Well, not bad. The incense in the house is a lotus flower, which itself is very fragrant, but you have to add something more.

Shen Nian's ears moved, and there was someone on the roof. Then I smelled a sweet smell drifting down from the roof, well, Shen Nian nodded, not bad, this is Huan Frost Powder, it is very fragrant when used alone, and it is a magic medicine that is more powerful than Hehuan San. Someone in the palace dared to use this kind of thing. Scold.

At this time, the sound of people being knocked unconscious sounded outside the door.

The door was immediately pushed open, and Shen Nian looked back at the person who came and smiled.
