Chapter 21: Waiting for her here
After some twists and turns, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet finally started, and for a while, the banquet was pushed and the cup was changed, and the light song and dance were sung.
A full moon hung in the deep blue night sky, and the yellowish moonlight poured down and spread on everyone at the Mid-Autumn Festival. Some of the more lively and bold ladies have long been unable to hold back, discussing with each other which son is the most iconic and which is the most innocent.
It didn't take long for a well-dressed young lady to stand up and say to the queen: "Niangniang, the courtier is the second daughter of Yuan Shangshu, and the courtier is willing to dedicate a song to cheer up the mother." ”
In fact, everyone knows that it is fake to cheer for the queen, and it is true to show the beautiful side of himself when he strokes the piano in front of the princes and princes. Su Xiaoyan's nerves began to tense, is it finally about to start?
"Eh, it is said that Miss Yuan has been learning the guqin since she was five years old, and it has been ten years now."
"Wow, that's amazing! That should play well. ”
"No, it's said that it's been played to the point of being superb. If people are not powerful, how can they have the confidence to be the first to stand up and perform. ”
……
Several young ladies around Su Xiaoyan who had a good relationship had already begun to discuss Miss Yuan Er's piano skills with each other.
"You say that Miss Yuan Er is targeting which son? If you are in such a hurry to shine, it won't be because you have taken a fancy to a certain prince, right? ”
"Shhhh
Miss Yuan's piano skills are indeed excellent, although "Mountains and Flowing Water" cannot reach the sense of bosom friends of Boya and Zhong Zi, but it is also beyond the level of ordinary people and won a round of applause. There were even a few sons who looked at Miss Yuan with different meanings.
The queen smiled slightly and nodded affirmatively: "Okay, Yuan Shangshu has a good daughter." ”
Then, a boy stood up and begged for a sword dance, and another scream of the girls in full bloom.
As the palace banquet progressed, the unpleasantness at the beginning had been forgotten by everyone, and the joyful and somewhat ambiguous atmosphere began to spread among the young ladies and the sons.
At this time, when another young lady on the stage finished performing, Shen Ruyan, who had been silent, stood up: "Shen Ruyan, a folk girl, is willing to offer a dance for her mother." ”
"Good!" Before the queen could speak, Princess Pingyang had already spoken out for Shen Ruyan, and looked at Shen Ruyan excitedly and expectantly.
Shen Ruyan bowed slightly, a touch of pride appeared on his face, and when he left his seat, he looked at Su Xiaoyan who was eating moon cakes to relieve his tension with hatred.
Receiving this gaze, Su Xiaoyan's movements froze, and he almost didn't choke on the moon cake in his mouth. Who did she recruit and provoke whom? That's what she is
Isn't it likable? Su Xiaoyan began to self-doubt his popularity.
Shen Ruyan's dance has indeed been practiced, but at first glance, it looks like he has practiced for two or three years, and it is completely incomparable with those young ladies of the family who have studied since childhood, presumably at the beginning, the Shen family could not find good dance teacher resources to train Shen Ruyan, until the Shen family became an imperial businessman, and only then did they have the capital to start cultivating Shen Ruyan. It's just that he missed the golden age when he was a child, and no matter how much he practiced, Shen Ruyan couldn't catch up with those young ladies who had studied hard since childhood. However, everyone still gave the Shen family face, and after Shen Ruyan's performance, many people still applauded her, after all, everyone would rather make more friends than make more enemies, not to mention that the Shen family is indeed rich now.
Shen Ruyan didn't care whether the applause was sincere or just looking at the face of the Shen family, in her opinion, she was amazed by the dance she had just done. So Shen Ruyan raised his chin high, glanced around everyone contemptuously, and finally fell on Su Xiaoyan.
Su Xiaoyan was already there, and a bad premonition arose. Could it be really......
"Queen Mother, Ruyan has a reluctant request." Shen Ruyan turned to the queen and spoke.
The queen frowned displeased, she already looked down on the daughter of the imperial merchant, Shen Ruyan was just the daughter of a merchant, what kind of arrogance. What's more, just now Shen Ruyan started performing before she could agree, which simply saved her face. But...... Shen Jia......
Despite the panic in her heart, the queen still opened her mouth to answer: "What request?" ”
Shen Ruyan glanced at Su Xiaoyan, whose face was gradually pale, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a mocking smile: "Back to the queen's mother, Ruyan has been in Beijing for two years, and I have heard of Miss Su Si's talented reputation. Ruyan knows that her identity is low, and she can't see Miss Su Si's true talent, but today is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, which is a day of joy and happiness without distinction between humility and humility. ”
Su Xiaoyan hehe, sure enough, I'm waiting for her here.
Now almost everyone in the capital knows that she Su Xiaoyan has lost all her memories since she fell into the lake, how can she still remember how to play the piano? Shen Ruyan made it clear that he wanted to see Su Xiaoyan make a fool of himself.
If Su Xiaoyan forcibly responded, Su Xiaoyan, who crossed over, had not been trained since childhood at all, no, he didn't have a day of training, and in the end he could only make a fool of himself and become a joke. And if Su Xiaoyan should not, then it is to offend all the people present whose status is lower than that of Miss Xiangfu, and even the queen who held this banquet and set the principle of "no dignity and inferiority", it really makes Su Xiaoyan not a person inside and out.
Su Xiaoyan glanced at Princess Pingyang with a look on her face, it seems that Princess Pingyang has nothing to do with this matter, maybe it was planned by the two of them, after all, Su Xiaoyan and Shen Ruyan fought a few times before, with Shen Ruyan's own IQ, he would definitely not come up with the rhetoric just now.
Shen Ruyan, who was waiting to watch a good show, suddenly felt an extremely cold gaze staring at her, and Shen Ruyan couldn't help but shiver. She looked in the direction of her gaze, trying to see who had the audacity to look at her like that. She glanced back and forth in that direction a few times, and only saw Su Xiaoyan biting her lip and Ye Feng who was busy eating moon cakes with her head down. Shen Ruyan felt that these two people didn't look like the owner of that line of sight, so he could only give up, and he was relieved that it was an illusion.
No one noticed that Ye Feng, who was lowering his head, was very sharp in his eyes.
Shen Ruyan saw that Su Xiaoyan still didn't make this dilemma, and couldn't help but become proud: "Miss Su Si really doesn't want to play songs for us people with low status, right?" Alas, I originally thought that I could feast my ears on the principle of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet set by the queen's mother, but it seems that it still can't be done. ”
The queen was originally happy to see Shen Ruyan and Su Xiaoyan fighting each other, but Shen Ruyan suddenly pulled herself into the battle, although the queen was reluctant, she still had to speak: "Miss Su Family, whether you want to play the piano or not, hurry up and decide, don't delay the time of all of us." ”
Shen Ruyan and Princess Pingyang seemed to have seen the scene of Su Xiaoyan's refusal to play the piano and offended everyone present, and the smile of the successful plan couldn't help but appear on the corners of their mouths.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that Su Xiaoyan raised his head with a smile, although the smile was a little stiff and reluctant, but he did smile: "Of course I do." Xiao Yan was just thinking that if Xiao Yan still performed the guqin and zither, everyone would inevitably get tired of watching and listening. So Xiao Yan decided to perform a new instrument that he had developed. Qingmei, bring the things. ”
