Chapter 42: The Family Banquet Murder (Part II)
As soon as the gift came, everyone was stunned.
The gift of love is Hetian jade, which is two arms wide for adults, and it is completely in good condition.
In this thumb-sized jade capital where it is difficult to find a thousand gold, the gift given by An Linghan can be described as a priceless treasure.
The precious sandalwood that Chu Jingping gave before was also compared.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Okay, it's really good, what kind of gift is this, this is clearly a priceless treasure, Princess Ze has a heart, I like it very much." ”
Everyone's faces were ugly, the emperor didn't smile so happily when he received the gift from the three princes just now, but this piece of jade instantly made the emperor so happy.
"Erchen has long heard that his father has been in an irritable mood recently, so he has worked hard to find this high-quality Hetian jade, which can be made into a pillow, and his father can sleep peacefully with his pillow every night." An Linghan said modestly.
"Great, I love this gift." Father said slowly: "Who of you dares to say that she didn't give a gift, this is obviously too valuable to save face for you."
We have to learn more from Princess Ze in the future, this bearing, you can't compare with each other. ”
After speaking, everyone's faces were ugly, but no one said much, just smiled and reluctantly agreed.
After going back, An Linghan sat in his seat and drank tea, very comfortable.
"Lady, lady, how did you make such a big piece of Hetian jade, I heard her say that it is very precious." Chu Xingze asked expectantly, and then pointed to Suqin on the side.
"I found it when I looked outside." An Linghan touched Chu Xingze's head and said softly.
But how could Chu Xingze believe it, he just smiled lightly, and then nodded obediently.
Sooner or later, one day, he will personally let An Linghan say everything himself.
Chu Ying returned to her seat unwillingly and cried to the concubine.
The concubine didn't expect this kind of ending, so she couldn't help but comfort: "Okay, Ying'er, this palace didn't expect that she actually prepared a gift, you should be relieved, the days will be long." ”
This happened to be heard by Shen Qingyun on the side, she couldn't help but snort lightly, and said, "I said that you don't have to think in vain, Sister Han, she is so good, and I don't know how to provoke you." ”
When the concubine heard this, she instantly clenched her fists, she couldn't imagine that this kind of heroine among women would actually be friendly with An Linghan.
Because she didn't want to have a bad relationship with the eldest princess's mansion, the concubine nodded, and said reluctantly with a smile: "Don't be angry, Ying'er, her child is not sensible, and she is a little childish when she speaks." ”
Shen Qingyun snorted coldly, turned her head, and stopped talking.
At the beginning of the banquet, the singers danced, singing and dancing, and the queen couldn't help but make trouble again.
"I heard that Princess Ze is the first beauty of Da Chu, but what kind of talent do you have, why don't you come out and show your hands at this time."
An Linghan ate with a mouth, knowing that the old woman had given her stubble again.
She didn't speak, and Chu Nuoci couldn't help but say: "Today's spearhead is all aimed at the imperial sister-in-law."
No matter what the imperial sister-in-law says, she is also the first beauty in Da Chu, where is not likable. ”
Speaking of which, the people present tacitly understood.
Tong Yan is unscrupulous, so naturally he can't blame the twelve princes.
Everyone can see such an obvious thing, but they don't name it.
Bengong just heard that she was the first beauty of Da Chu, and was a little curious about what talent she had, so he didn't deliberately target her.
People in this world don't say that those who can work harder. ”
After Chu Nuo listened, he nodded sullenly, looked at An Linghan not far away, and smiled softly, revealing his pointed little tiger teeth.
"It's okay, on such an important day, Erchen will be ugly, and I hope you don't dislike it." An Linghan stood up with a decent smile on his face.
"I have long heard that Princess Ze's piano skills are superb, which is obvious to all, this play, I'm afraid to compare all the piano girls tonight, or leave them a way to live.
I don't know if Princess Ze will dance, but I'm looking forward to it. The queen said again.
On the surface, An Linghan knew it very clearly in his heart.
This An Linghan's piano skills are superb, and almost no one dares to call her the first in Dachu City, in order to make her ugly, although it is so obscure, she does not play the piano.
said it so high-soundingly, if she refused, wouldn't she be admitting in disguise that she couldn't dance, and she had no ink on her chest.
Thinking of this, An Linghan couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, looked at Queen Lin with a smile, and raised his eyebrows defiantly.
She An Linghan has never been obedient, isn't she just dancing, what's so difficult about this?
Thinking of this, she slowly walked to the center, bowed slightly, and said: "Since then, Erchen is ugly, and I hope you don't dislike it if you don't dance well." ”
After speaking, she stretched out her slender jade fingers, danced with a gentle smile on her face.
The pink dress danced with her movements, like a butterfly playing wantonly in the jungle, and her weak and boneless hands made difficult dance moves from time to time, flamboyant and wanton, without the gentleness of a Da Chu woman.
He seems to be a delicate red rose, blooming its beauty to the fullest, but not gaudy, with a kind of smart beauty.
All the backup dancers present were overshadowed by her dance.
She seemed to be the only one dancing on the whole stage, as if she was a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.
Suddenly, his dance style changed in an instant, from the previous flamboyant and wanton, to poignant, with a slightly sad expression on his face, but he showed a smile again, and his eyes revealed countless expectations and sadness.
In just one dance, everyone seems to see a story.
A flamboyant and wanton woman falls in love with a man, but she can't love it, which makes people's hearts tremble, but more importantly, it is heartwarming.
Chu Xingze stared at the people dancing on the stage without blinking, and the whole world seemed to have dimmed, only the person in the center of the stage was a shining point.
Then, the corners of his mouth were slowly hooked.
This is her princess, and she is the only one in the entire Great Chu, who is worthy of him.
Chu Jingping's eyes have never left An Linghan since he danced, holding the robe below tightly, with surprise in his eyes.
He didn't expect this woman to be so amazing.
At this moment, he suddenly had an idea to hide her from anyone.
But soon, he shook his head again.
He lowered his head in some chagrin, not knowing what he was thinking.
The faces of the concubine and the queen were already pale, but Shen Qingyun and Chu Nuoci looked at them appreciatively and were very happy.
At the end of the dance, everyone present was shocked by this wonderful dance.
The emperor took the lead in stretching out his hand, applauded and said with satisfaction: "It is worthy of Princess Ze, her piano skills are first-class, and dancing is also a must, you all learn hard in the future, don't be so proud, look at others." ”
Everyone stopped talking, they were all unified, and no one continued to trouble An Linghan.
"The lady dances so beautifully, I like it so much." Seeing An Linghan coming back, Chu Xingze blinked his eyes and said expectantly.
"If you like it." An Linghan said with a smile.
Suddenly, someone handed her a note, very hidden.
After An Linghan saw it, he looked in the direction of Chu Nuoci, and when he saw him smiling happily, he thought about it.
"What's wrong?" Chu Xingze said with some curiosity.
