Chapter 33: The Queen's Birthday Banquet

Mu Yueqing suddenly stood up and said aloud to the emperor and queen: "Your Majesty, the queen, the courtiers have a proposal, if the exam questions can be chosen by everyone and compete with their own best items, the difficulty of winning the championship will be greatly increased, then what is displayed in front of the emperor and the queen mother today must be high-quality." ”

Mu Yueqing's words surprised everyone, many people didn't know her, but her proposal was unprecedented. The most surprised were Lin and Mu Yaxin.

You must know that Mu Yaxin is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, only because her father is a concubine, she was not crowned with the title of a talented woman, no matter how this rule is changed, it has no impact on her, but she was surprised that Mu Yueqing, a waste wood, dared to be so bold today.

The queen smiled at the emperor and said: "In previous years, a word was selected as an exam question in the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, but this year it is better to let everyone choose their own ones, what does the emperor think?" ”

"The queen's proposal is novel, okay, this year, according to the queen's words, you can choose a word by yourself." When the emperor heard this proposal, his face also lit up, it was the same set every year, but not every year there were outstanding people, and it was inevitably boring. Now this proposal can be chosen by each person according to their own strengths, and this time it will definitely be very exciting.

Mu Yueqing just sat down, stood up again, and said aloud again: "Your Majesty, the queen mother, the courtiers have another proposal, please allow everyone to choose a few words from these seven characters to participate, and in one show, show several skills at the same time." ”

Without waiting for the queen to speak, the emperor first became curious: "In this exhibition, how to show several skills at the same time?" ”

"Back to the emperor, if you choose poetry and books, you can write down the poems you make in calligraphy, which can show both poetry and calligraphy skills."

When the emperor heard this, he thought it was very interesting, so he said, "I'm right." ”

"Your Majesty." After Mu Yueqing finished speaking, she sat down to watch the show.

The queen mother then smiled and said: "If you can become the winner, you will have a chance to make a request to the emperor." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was boiling, and they could make a request to the emperor, which is a benefit that is difficult to buy for a thousand dollars, and all the women of the family are ready to move, wanting to show their posture and win the victory.

The eunuch had the list book in his hand and began to call people in order.

"Mu family, Mu Yaxin."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, you know, Mu Yueqing, the daughter of the Mu family, is still sitting here, and the first one is far less than a second daughter, not to mention that she is still a concubine.

Even the emperor frowned, and the queen glanced at the prince with a displeased face, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Of course, this was done by the prince, if Mu Yaxin can be the first to play and amaze everyone, then even if the later ones have the same strength as Mu Yaxin, they will not have the amazing feeling of seeing it for the first time, this is a strategy.

In previous years, the first person was really Mu Yaxin, the emperor valued the Mu family who was dedicated to fighting for the country, and at the same time took pity on Mu Cheng for the loss of his beloved son, so he acquiesced to the Mu family's first appearance.

This first one was Mu Yueqing, the daughter of the Mu family, but Mu Yueqing had never been there in previous years, so her name was removed from the list. And this year, the prince's ceremonial officer added Mu Yueqing's name to the roster, he knew that Mu Yueqing would definitely come, he must not let a waste of firewood rush to make a fool of himself in front of Mu Yaxin, and if he wants to make a fool of himself, he will have to wait until Mu Yaxin is amazing.

Originally, this matter would not attract attention, so the prince dared to be so bold. Unexpectedly, Mu Yueqing made such a proposal, even if someone didn't pay attention to her.

The eldest lady of the general's mansion was sitting below, but let the second lady go up first, what did everyone think in their hearts, the prince couldn't stop it.

Mu Yaxin immediately got up and walked to the center to salute the emperor and queen. The strange gazes of the people around her had made Mu Yaxin keenly aware of the difference in atmosphere, which made her a little upset.

But when he thought that his choice was unbeatable, he reassured himself.

"The courtiers choose the piano, the lyrics, and the song." After speaking, he walked to the side of the piano, took on his skirt and sat down.

Mu Yaxin's choice is actually very scheming, she knows that once the rules are changed, she must surprise everyone to win, and the key to the rules is to choose a few more words, so she imagined a variety of possibilities. Piano songs, songs and dances, this is relatively easy, the difficulty of books and songs is too great, it is easy to make mistakes, and the poems and books Mu Yueqing has mentioned it, but it is not brilliant enough.

And these can only be combined, and more than one cannot be shown at the same time.

Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration from the example of Mu Yueqing's poetry book, and added the words to the qin song, which became three, in the same way, she could also add the words to the song and dance, choose the qin lyrics and songs, or the words and dances, which made Mu Yaxin a little difficult. After all, it was the first time she did this, and in order to prevent dancing from affecting her singing due to unstable breath, Mu Yaxin also chose three qin lyrics and songs.

She knew that someone would choose the lyrics for song and dance, and that would be her biggest threat, so she couldn't afford to make a mistake.

I have to say that even Mu Yueqing's piano skills and singing skills are good, and her words are made by herself temporarily, which is not bad, which is quite refreshing.

So Mu Yaxin got a high evaluation this time, and her performance was enough to suppress the thing she ranked first just now.

This made Mu Yueqing a little difficult, if other people didn't have the ability to take action, wouldn't it be to let Mu Yaxin win?

But how could Mu Yueqing let Mu Yaxin win, of course it couldn't be.

Immediately following Mu Yaxin, it was Huang Yuying, the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who was also a penetrating girl, so she chose the song and dance that Mu Yaxin was most worried about, and her strength was on par with Mu Yaxin.

While everyone was immersed in an excited cheer, the ceremonial officials on the side were sweating profusely. Although this was the case in previous years, this year there was a Mu Yueqing sitting behind General Mu Cheng, and the first person to appear in this scene would not be Mu Yaxin's turn. Besides, General Mu Cheng's gloomy face has already explained the seriousness of the problem, if this kind of thing happens, whether his head can be saved is still a problem, and now he has to find a way to remedy it quickly.

He quickly scolded the subordinates next to him to death in a low voice, trying to find out which bastard did this deadly thing, but after a while, he found out that it was the prince who did it, and the ceremonial officials were about to cry.

It was Hades who fought, and the imps suffered. What the prince did, even if he found out, wouldn't he be the one who would be punished at that time, and the official who couldn't think of how to remedy it was almost gone.

The eunuchs still read down one by one according to the roster, and Mu Yueqing did not sit and watch in a hurry, I have to say that there have been a few people who are equal to Mu Yaxin's strength, but there is really no one who surpasses her. These young ladies of the family must have prepared very well for today's birthday banquet, and almost none of them could be found fault by Mu Yueqing.

Just as it was about to end, the ceremonial officer suddenly slapped his head, thinking that he was going to die anyway, it was better to fight, maybe there would be a turnaround, if it still didn't work, he would die. So he hurriedly ran to the side of the newspaper eunuch who was standing aside and whispered a few words.

The eunuch nodded quietly.

All those present have been displayed, and the results speak for themselves, Mu Yaxin has a great chance of winning.

This is the eunuch who came on the stage again, and said in a suppressed voice: "As the finale, Mu Jia, Mu Yueqing." ”

Mu Yueqing was stunned, the emperor and queen were also stunned, the prince was also stunned, and the Lin family and Mu Yaxin, including everyone, were stunned. They all forgot that there is also a Mu Yueqing, the concubine of Mu Mansion, at this time, Mu Yueqing will be put at the end, and there will be a finale, if Mu Yueqing can win, of course, this will give her enough face, if she loses, this finale will become a joke.

Therefore, the ceremonial officer is also gambling, and this is also his only chance.

The look on Mu Cheng's face was indistinguishable, he knew Mu Yueqing's situation, and he didn't know whether this was good or bad for Mu Yueqing.

Only the Seventh Prince Shu had a faint smile on his face, and he looked at Mu Yueqing's eyes, gentle and quiet.

Mu Yueqing got up and walked to the center. Originally, even if the eunuch didn't call her, she would recommend herself to show it, after all, she couldn't let Mu Yaxin win.

"Courtiers choose books, paintings, lyrics, songs, and dances."

As soon as Mu Yueqing's words came out, everyone was shocked, and then they were all looking forward to it, and even the emperor thought that Mu Yueqing was arranged at the end just for this finale.

"Your Majesty, please allow the courtiers to change their clothes and prepare."

Mu Yueqing was the first to ask for preparation, but the emperor was eager to see how she could display her five skills at the same time, so he readily agreed.

Mu Yueqing stood in the center in a water-sleeved dress, and the silk cloth for painting and writing had been erected on the left and right sides according to her request, and basins full of ink were placed in front and back.

That's right, Mu Yueqing just wants to be like Princess Yushu in "Mythology", dip her water sleeve in ink and throw it on the canvas to paint. She really learned this at the beginning, but she couldn't do it like Princess Yushu, and everything filmed in the TV series was fake after all. But it's easy to draw a picture on a shelf of silk cloth.

When she was learning this dance, in her free time, Mu Yueqing dipped her sleeves in ink and shook her writing to play, but she didn't expect that after a long time, she really let her practice.

As for the words, please leave it to Su Shi's seniors.

"When is the bright moon?" As soon as Mu Yueqing started singing, she didn't get everyone's applause, because her singing skills were really average, and her dancing posture was also very average.

"Ask Qingtian for wine."

When she sang this sentence, Mu Yueqing waved her sleeves and left a piece of ink on the left and right pieces of silk.

Everyone shut up, looking forward to her next performance, and even the emperor couldn't take their eyes off it.

Next, Mu Yueqing waved her water sleeves, leaving ink on the silk cloth on the left and right sides at the same time, how difficult it is to create at the same time, not only she knows, but also everyone who sees it.

When she couldn't paint at the same time, Mu Yueqing also had a way to cover it up with dancing and paint separately.

At this time, everyone was already amazed, and even the prince was surprised.
