Chapter 12: The thief shouts to catch the thief
As soon as he entered the palace gate, the carriage turned around and walked in the palace for a long time before suddenly stopping. And there were people in the palace who placed the carriages. Chu Yu and Mu Jing followed the guidance of the palace maid and walked for a long time.
When she arrived at the dining hall, Mu Jing was very curious and visited left and right, after all, she had not passed through the palace. The palace is really big.
Entering the main hall, Mu Jing found that the prince and Mu Kite had arrived, and Chu Jin was also sitting on the left side.
The sharp-eyed Mu Yuan had already seen the appearance of Mu Jing and Chu Yu early, with a smug look on her face, waiting to watch the show for a while.
And the crown prince now has the support of the prime minister, and recently some civil officials around him have begun to impeach Chu Yu for some things, among which he didn't expect is that Yang Jian, the gold medal imperial doctor of the palace, is also impeached, because the emperor has been a little colder about Chu Yu recently.
"Seventh brother, every time you have a family banquet, you are the latest to come and the first to leave, how could you suddenly arrive so early this time?" Chu Jin was vaguely blue-clothed and jade-crowned, and his words were full of irony. In fact, he knew why Chu Yu arrived early today, so he was sarcastic.
Chu Yu's eyes were slightly cold, and he glanced at the prince beside Chu Jin, only to see that the prince was taking a leisurely sip.
Mu Jing was surprised, could it be that Chu Yu didn't tell her something, and she asked her to talk less yesterday, could it be something?
"Thank you, the fifth brother cares so much, today is the first time my princess has come, I want to take her to get acquainted with her." Chu Yu picked up the teacup on the table and replied lightly.
"Oh, I see." Chu Jin also wanted to continue to ridicule Chu Yu.
"The emperor and queen have arrived."
Mu Jing was pulled up by Chu Yu and stood up.
"See Father, Queen Mother."
"It's all out of courtesy, serve."
The emperor and empress took their seats and ordered the food to be served.
Mu Jing quickly glanced at the current emperor and queen, the emperor was dressed in a yellow dragon robe, about forty or fifty years old, but he still looked strong.
Mu Jing didn't dare to say much, so he ate quietly, watching Chu Jin and the prince start to perform one by one, which was very exciting.
"It's these shows every year, the emperor might as well let the side concubine of his sons perform a show for you this year, and give us an active atmosphere for this family banquet." After the crown prince just complimented the emperor, he changed his mind and turned to today's plan.
"Your Majesty, why don't you let the crown princess perform it, the concubines are also very curious and want to see it." The queen chimed in.
The emperor didn't think anything about it, so he agreed.
"Then the minister will be ugly." Mu Yuan looked at Mu Qing with picky eyes, hum, there will be a good show later.
Mu Kite changed her dance costume and performed a beautiful dance accompanied by musical instruments.
"Good. Reward. After reading it, the emperor applauded.
"Your Majesty." Mu Yuan glanced at Mu Qin with satisfaction, as if to say, I was in the limelight in front of you, how about it.
But at this time, Mu Jing was obsessed with the beauty on the table, so he didn't pay attention to Mu Kite's expression, and suddenly changed.
"Erchen also has a dance performance to cheer up this banquet, but he needs Erchen's sister to accompany him, which is the Seventh Princess," Mu Yuan looked at the emperor firmly
"Your Majesty, since she is so hearted, let the Seventh Princess help over there." The Empress followed and egged on the Emperor.
The emperor probably guessed their thoughts, but recently he was really not very satisfied with the Seventh Imperial Concubine, and his favorite son, since he communicated with him that since his body was fine, he would find a reason to abolish her. How can an ugly-looking woman be a princess. And there is no shortage of these in today's ministers' performances.
Mu Jing was thinking about this, it was time to pretend that her stomach hurt and sneak away, intending to inquire about her own affairs. Who knows that this Mu Kite, it's good to show her like to behave, why drag her into the water, it's very unpleasant.
"I think my sister should be happy." Mu Kite continued to speak and looked at Mu Qin.
Gladly? I'm really not happy. Besides, this Mu Kite clearly wants her to make a fool of herself, because she knows that Mu Jing is her sister in name, but in fact she is not even as good as a maid, how can she play any musical instrument.
"In that case, Seventh Princess, you are ready to prepare." The emperor's interest was soaring, and it was not strange for these daughters-in-law to compete to show their style, but why not add a little fun to the banquet, besides, the purpose of Mu Kite's trip coincided with him, why not do it?
"Father. Qian'er she ...... "Chu Yu was about to get up and refuse for Mu Jing, but he was halfway through his words.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey." Don't you want to dance? Then I'll let you jump enough. See how beautiful you can dance.
Just staring at it with such big eyes and staring for a while?
"Sister, you haven't chosen an instrument yet?" Mu Kite is small, this Mu Jing is going to slap a swollen face to support the fat man.
"That's my instrument." Mu Jing raised his right hand high, and there was a green leaf on it.
"Hahaha." The hall burst into laughter. Mu Jing was a little surprised, this green leaf was still the leaf she had just taken from the flower used to decorate the dish on the table, although this leaf was not considered the upper layer, but it was still okay to play a tune.
And Mu Kite looked at Mu Jing's hand even more proudly, even more proud. Think she can't dance without a soundtrack? She can still dance. This dance has been practiced without music for so long, and she can dance it well.
"I said seventh brother and sister, if you don't know how to play a musical instrument, then you just say you can't, what do you do with a leaf?" Chu Jin said along with the prince's laughter, his mouth full of disdain. This ugly girl is talentless and unattractive.
"Oh? Take it, please wait and see. As he spoke, he filtered the leaves with clean water, and then put them to his mouth......
looked at Mu Kite, who was still looking at her with a smug and provocative face.
Suddenly, the music sounded in a low tone, Mu Kite's face was suddenly full of surprise, but immediately she reacted, blended into the music, and began to dance, the music was high, like the sound of heaven step by step, sometimes brisk, sometimes gentle, and Mu Kite's dance suddenly couldn't keep up, a spin, fell to the ground. At this moment, she is humiliated,
And the music on Mu Jing's mouth did not stop, and suddenly turned into half like the sound of brisk running water, bright and brisk.
The music stops ~~~.
The emperor and queen clapped their hands in unison.
At this time, Mu Yuan didn't expect that she originally wanted Mu Jing to make a fool of herself, but why did she suddenly make her in the limelight, and she was very unhappy.
"Your Majesty, there are assassins." Li Linzhi suddenly arrived, and took a group of soldiers to the top of the main hall. Break the crowd that was still immersed in the music just now,
"Ahh His Royal Highness the Prince. Suddenly, Mu Kite shouted loudly.
Everyone looked at it, and the prince was covering his chest at this time.
"In the tea, it is poisonous." The prince said with a frown.
"Hurry up and call the Imperial Doctor." The emperor suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, and then glanced at Mu Jing and Chu Yu.
Mu Jing's mind was spinning quickly, what kind of drama were they singing about this prince.
At this moment, a palace man was about to escape, and was grabbed by Li Lin and pressed onto the palace.
Say. Who instigated you to commit murder? At this time, Chu Jin immediately stepped forward and asked, his face full of justice.
"If you don't say yes, then I'll send you to the Criminal Division." Chu Jin said quietly. And the thief immediately confessed.
"It was Princess Yu, who instructed it."
