Chapter 135: The Strings Break
Murong Jue didn't say anything, waved his hand to signal her to get up, and then put a pair of big hands on Ye Wanying's palm, made a smiling face, looked at her gently, and asked, "Since Concubine Ai helped your sister order, can you order what you like?"
"The concubine likes to listen to Kunqu opera when she is a child, and there is only one garden dream here that the concubine likes, and it is ordered early, and the emperor can rest assured. ”
Ye Qinxin sat behind and watched the two of them be happy, you and me, Ye Qinxin couldn't wait to bite a mouthful of silver teeth, clutching the handkerchief in her hand, Mrs. Liu saw this, hurriedly put it to her ear, and whispered: "You must not show a trace of dissatisfaction, now that Ye Wanying is in the limelight, we can't afford to provoke it." ”
"Then do you want to watch Brother Zhu being snatched away by her?"
Ye Qinxin was very unwilling, looking at Ye Wanying's eyes full of resentment, she hated this concubine who robbed her man, and she couldn't wait to peel her skin and cramp and eat her alive!
But now that there is a huge disparity in identity between the two of them, Ye Wanying is no longer the concubine she can knead at will.
The gongs and drums sounded, the drama took the stage, everyone was immersed in the opera, unable to extricate themselves, only Ye Qinxin, staring at the two people in front of her all the time, Mrs. Liu had no choice but to sigh when she saw this.
At this time, Su Yang was very happy in her heart, and today she can be said to be in the limelight, not only got a chance for Feng Yi to be directly admitted to the exam, but also made Ye Qinxin have a good meal.
Looking at the babbling and singing on the stage, Su Yang's mood gradually calmed down, and he hummed a few words softly with them, but Murong Jue listened to them.
I saw him slowly approaching her ear and asked in a low voice, "Concubine Ai can even sing?"
"The emperor has started to talk nonsense again, where can the concubines sing? It's just listening to their good singing and learning two sentences. ”
Just as the two were talking, Murong Jue's palm gradually wrapped around Su Yang's waist, Su Yang's cheeks suddenly turned red, she looked at the man sitting next to her, her willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she said angrily: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?
"I just hugged you for a moment, so why make such a fuss?"
The hot breath that Murong exhaled when she breathed slapped on Su Yang's earlobe, which made her feel even more shy, and she didn't know how to speak for a while, so she could only sit with her head down and ignore him.
After a long time, the opera ended, Su Yang's stomach was a little hungry, and it happened that he had no interest in listening to the play, so he beckoned everyone to go to the sea pavilion on the side.
Previously, in order to celebrate her birthday, Murong Jue prepared here early, and now the Guanhai Pavilion can be described as a magnificent building, not only are there many rare treasures placed in the grid, but the most important thing is that there is a small stage in the house, compared to the state banquet, the stage of the day is even better.
"Today, since all the ladies are here, why don't they all perform, it can be regarded as celebrating the birthday of the imperial concubine, naturally, if the performance is good, there will be a lot of rewards!
As soon as Murong Jue said this, all the ladies began to gear up, they had been waiting for this day, they had been waiting for a long time, this was an opportunity to show themselves in front of the emperor, although the emperor did not accept concubines now, but it was good to be in the limelight at this time.
So, all the ladies were eager to try, from the beginning of the banquet to the end, almost all of them performed once, and the content of the performance was very different, singing, dancing, piano and chess, chanting poems and poems, everything, and even some did not know these, took out their usual embroidery work in the boudoir, as a gift to Su Yang.
But there is only one person who has not made a move for a long time, and that is Ye Qinxin.
I saw her and Mrs. Liu, hiding in a corner not far away, watching the whole process, without saying a word, Su Yang knew that the two of them had suffered a loss, and they didn't dare to make any other moves.
"Look, concubine, is there anything you are most satisfied with in today's show?"
Just as Murong asked about it, Su Yang seemed to be deliberately making things difficult, and deliberately mentioned the mother and daughter hiding in the corner: "According to the concubines, everyone is doing very well today, but the concubines always feel that there are some shortcomings, and it seems that there is a piece of piano missing." ”
"Then should I invite Concubine Ai to be the luthier?"
Murong Jue didn't understand the meaning of Su Yang's words, so he asked, but Su Yang just shook his head, pulled his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty, don't forget, the concubine's sister is the best at playing the qin." ”
Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to Ye Qinxin and Mrs. Liu, who were hiding in the corner, and the two of them suddenly felt very embarrassed, so they just lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak.
"I remember that, too, but it's almost the hour today, so why don't you forget it?"
When Murong Jue heard her mention Ye Qinxin, he couldn't help frowning, and covered for him, but Su Yang was determined to embarrass Ye Qinxin, pursed his lips, and made a look of grievance: "Your Majesty, the concubine only has one birthday a year, so you can satisfy the concubine once!"
Seeing her coquettish like this, Murong Jue couldn't stand it either, so he could only nod and agree, then looked at the two people sitting in the corner and said, "Ye Qinxin, why don't you stroke a piano?"
"Your Majesty, the little girl left home in a hurry today, and she never brought the piano at home, but I am afraid that she will not be able to play for the mother, and I hope that the emperor will forgive her sins. ”
Ye Qinxin has suffered in this matter, not to mention that before coming today, Ye Teng had already explained, telling them not to cause trouble, the past few months have been painful enough, and she doesn't want to go through it again.
"It's okay, if my sister forgets to bring it, there is still a Jiaowei Baoqin in the treasury of the palace, you can go and use it. ”
In order to make things difficult for Ye Qinxin, Su Yang can be said to have done everything he could, even the good piano in the warehouse was moved out, and Ye Qinxin was embarrassed to refuse, so she could only go into battle.
I saw that the eunuchs moved the piano out, Ye Qinxin sat behind the piano, her slender jade fingers plucked on the strings, the sound of the piano was tactful and melodious, very beautiful, but somehow, halfway through, Ye Qinxin only felt that the strings were slightly loose, and couldn't help frowning, but stopped at this time, I was afraid that Su Yang would take the opportunity to embarrass her again, so I had to continue to play.
When the righteous path forgot her feelings, she only heard a "collapse", and the strings were broken, and everyone gasped for her.
"Oh! This is a very rare Baoqin, why is my sister so careless?"
Seeing this, Su Yang made a surprised look and exclaimed, for fear that Murong Jue would not hear it, Ye Qinxin's face suddenly turned green, this is an ancient treasure, she was so damaged, I am afraid, she is more than lucky!
