Chapter 171: Dragon Boat Palace Banquet

The queen on the side noticed Feng Jixuan's actions, clenched the teacup in her hand, and suddenly smiled faintly.

"Your Majesty, today's Dragon Boat Festival palace banquet, it is rare for the palace to be so lively, and the concubines think that it will cost a lot of money to invite singers and dancers to perform, so they simply let the sisters in the palace choreograph their own songs and dances, and they will have fun."

The queen said, smiling gently and generously, "Why don't you just sing and dance, what does the emperor think?" ”

Feng Jixuan didn't care much about this, and only smiled faintly when he heard this, "It's good for the queen to make a decision, you have a heart." ”

"It is the duty of the concubines to save money for the harem." After the queen finished speaking, she beckoned to Tinghe.

Tinghe reacted and retreated.

When the song and dance came up, Chu Yue saw that it was Lin Cainu who played the guzheng in the hall, which did not often appear.

Chu Yue glanced at the queen's expression, and her heart was clear.

This Lin Cai girl...... It should be a chess piece that the queen found to share favors and consolidate her position.

But watching Lin Cainu plucking the strings of the guzheng seriously and quietly, Chu Yue couldn't help but sigh, if it wasn't for Lin Cainu's rank being too high, it was that she was really used by the queen.

Rouge on the side whispered to Chu Yue on the side: "Lin Cainu, like Miss, has been sick in bed before, and has been taken care of by the queen. ”

I see.

No wonder she hadn't heard of this character.

But if you are taken care of by the queen...... Looks like there's another Queen.

If you tell the truth, Lin Cainu Guzheng really plays well, even Chu Yue, who doesn't understand the rhythm, can't help but sigh that the sound of this piano is ethereal and beautiful, and it has a unique charm.

She subconsciously looked at Feng Jixuan, who was in the first place.

Feng Jixuan seems to know a lot about the rhythm of music, and there is no other emotion in his eyes except for appreciation.

Chu Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

She was always afraid that Feng Jixuan would ...... because of this piano sound

Feeling Chu Yue's gaze, Feng Jixuan looked over and just caught the joy in Chu Yue's eyes.

The corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, and when Lin Cainu finished playing the guzheng, Feng Jixuan couldn't help but praise: "Lin Cainu has always been a loner, but I didn't expect the guzheng to play well." ”

A faint smile appeared on Lin Cainu's face, "Thank you for the emperor's praise, the concubine is ugly." ”

The Queen Mother also glanced at Lin Cainu rarely, "This guzheng is really good, the mourning family may not have heard such a good guzheng for a long time." ”

With the praise of the Queen Mother, Feng Jixuan's eyebrows moved slightly.

"Lin Cainu has a blue heart, and she is a beauty."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present changed in different ways.

The queen had a generous and decent smile on her face, and Concubine Wan had a moment of hideousness on her face, and then returned to her old smile.

When the other concubines heard this, their jealous eyes slashed at Lin Meiren from time to time.

It was rare that there was no movement on his face, and even a smug smile flashed on his lips very quickly.

Chu Yue was not affected at all, but after seeing Wan Guiren's reaction, he looked thoughtful.

She knew that Feng Jixuan was just following the queen mother's wishes, so she wouldn't be sad, but Wan Guiren was so unfazed, but it was really strange.

And Lin Meiren, who was at the center of the matter, was directly stunned when she heard the words, and her reaction was as if she had heard it wrong.

She didn't expect that she just played a piece of music, and she even got the blue eyes of the Queen Mother, and that's it, she has always been a woman, and she was suddenly named a beauty, and she couldn't react for a while.

"The emperor gave you such a big lift, don't you want to thank you?"

The Queen Mother spoke slowly and smiled warmly.

Lin Meiren came back to her senses and hurriedly bowed, "Concubine Xie Emperor Longen." ”

Feng Jixuan was noncommittal, "Let's go down, the meals are all presented, let's go to eat." ”

Lin Meiren saluted and slowly stepped aside.

Due to her promotion, Lin Meiren's position was naturally changed to Chu Yue's side.

Seeing Lin Meiren smile at her friendly, Chu Yue smiled back politely.

Zhao Cairen on the side saw the interaction between the two with sharp eyes, and couldn't help but smile sarcastically: "Some people, once they are favored, they can't wait to climb the high branches, two shallow-eyed people get together, how do you look at it and feel disgusting." ”

Chu Yue frowned slightly.

Zhou Changyi echoed: "But it's not, I thought that with the emperor's temporary favor, I could get carried away, but I don't know that only that lowly singer and dancer would do such a flattering thing." ”

The words became more and more ugly, Lin Meiren bit her lips, her face was red in a hurry, but she couldn't find any words to fight back.

Chu Yue calmly put down the teacup and looked straight at Zhao Cairen.

The straight look made Zhao Cairen's heart suddenly, "What do you see me doing?" ”

"What do I see you doing?"

Chu Yue playfully repeated Zhao Cairen's words, "If I'm not mistaken, Lin Meiren and I are both above the two of you, right?" Talking like this, aren't you afraid that I will tell the emperor and punish you for a crime of disrespect? ”

Zhou Changyi sneered, "Tell the emperor? You are just the emperor's picture is fresh for a while to get favored, and when the freshness is over, do you think the emperor will look at you more? ”

Chu Yue's smile became brighter and brighter, but Zhou Changyi was on fire, "Is there something wrong with what I said?" ”

"What Zhou Changyi said is good," Chu Yue calmed down, "Let me ask Zhou Changyi, how many times has the emperor entered your palace in the past year?" ”

"You!" Zhou Changyi's face was red, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak.

"Even if the emperor's picture is fresh, it is much better than the only few times you have seen the emperor throughout the year."

Chu Yue spoke, looking at the angry looks of Zhou Changyi and Zhao Cairen, and his heart became more and more happy.

"Your Majesty," Zhao Cairen suddenly stood up and walked to the hall, "Sister Chu has been praising Lin Meiren's guzheng, Lin Meiren also said that if there is a dance to cooperate, it will definitely be more perfect, the concubine thought, Sister Chu is slim, why don't you play with Lin Meiren, it's good to have fun?" ”

Feng Jixuan's face immediately sank.

What Zhao Cairen said obviously regarded Chu Yue as a cheap dancing girl, so many important ministers and women were here, she dared to do this!

Just the water that was spilled out of the words, so many people heard it, it was a loss of royal face!

Chu Yue didn't expect Zhao Cairen to dare to come out like this, a trace of coldness quickly crossed his face, and he looked at Lin Meiren who was a little overwhelmed on the side, got up and took a step forward and saluted first.

"Your Majesty," Chu Yue smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly, "What Zhao Cairen said also makes sense, but the concubine is a harem concubine, so naturally she can't dance, so why don't you improvise and do a sword dance for you?" ”
