In the Qiankun Palace, the dark red glazed tiles, the golden beams and pillars are carved with lifelike flying dragons, the dark red cloud top sandalwood in the hall is made of beams, and the crystal jade is the lamp, which is extremely luxurious.

When Bai Chuxia stepped into the Qiankun Palace, there was a discussion around him.

"That's Lord Ming, who is the woman next to him?"

"That's the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Bai Chuxia!"

"That adaptation of the mountains and rivers is from her?"

"Yes! The second lady of the prime minister, Bai Wanxia, is the first beauty in Eastern Qin, but she didn't expect the eldest lady to be so captivating. ”

"Who's to say it isn't? It is rumored outside that Miss Bai is as ugly as salt, and when I saw it today, I was really buried. ”

"It is said that this Miss Bai knows the rumors from the outside world, but people just ignore them, look at their open-mindedness and bearing, they are worthy of being Miss Concubine."

"Look at Prince Ming's attitude, he must be satisfied with this Miss Bai, I'm afraid that soon, this Miss Bai will become Princess Ming."

“……

Listening to the surrounding discussions, Bai Wanxia couldn't wait to step forward and tear Bai Chuxia's face apart, her fourteen years of reputation had been snatched away by her in the past few days, and even Ming was snatched away by her.

She is unwilling, today, she must let her make a fool of herself on the spot.

Seeing the hatred in Bai Wanxia's eyes, Bai Chuxia was very happy in his heart, bowed to Xuanyuan Ming, and walked towards the seat next to Bai Wanxia.

"Chu Xia."

As soon as she took two steps, Zhang Jinxiu walked over, and because there were more people, Bai Chuxia didn't notice her just now.

Touching Bai Chuxia's hand, Zhang Jinxiu looked happy, "Chu Xia, I haven't seen you for a few days, you are becoming more and more beautiful." ”

"Poor mouth," raising his hand, Bai Chuxia scratched Zhang Jinxiu's nose, turned around and walked in front of Lin and Zhang Wenxian, and bowed, "Father-in-law, stepmother." ”

"Good daughter," holding Bai Chuxia's hand, Lin smiled all over his face, "What a good boy." For Bai Chuxia, the more she looks at it, the more she likes it, she is knowledgeable, gentle and lovely. I don't know what the prime minister thinks, he actually put such a good daughter there and ignored it, but he loves the woman who came out of the house, and he really mistook the fish eye for a pearl.

"Chu Xia," Zhang Wenxian also showed a rare smile in the palace, "Today, when you participate in this kind of occasion for the first time, you must be cautious." ”

Did he know that the queen had ordered her to attend today's birthday banquet, and that she would definitely pay more attention to her today.

In the eyes of outsiders, she is the first time to appear, which is already a bit mysterious, and the queen's undisguised will undoubtedly push her into the limelight.

"It's my father." Bai Chuxia nodded, very moved in his heart.

The stepfather and mother were so good to her, and her heart couldn't help but soften a little.

Zhang Jinxiu glanced at her father, then at Bai Chuxia, and said mischievously, "Father and mother are so good to Chu Xia, but my daughter is going to be jealous." ”

She knew that after knowing Chu'er for a long time, her father and mother would definitely like her.

Xuanyuan Ming, who was always paying attention to Bai Chuxia, saw Bai Chuxia and Zhang Wenxian chatting very happily, his eyes were dark, and his lips slightly hooked a smile full of deep meaning.

At this moment, the voice of the eunuch came from outside, "The king has arrived, and the queen has arrived." ”

Bai Chuxia turned around, looked at the door, and bowed down to Xuanyuan Kun and the queen who walked in with the others, and said in unison.

"The ministers (courtiers) see the king, the king is Wan'an, the ministers (courtiers) see the queen, and the queen Jin'an."

Xuanyuan Kun took the queen's hand and walked to the dragon chair, and the concubines and ladies followed behind.

Xuanyuan Kun sat on the dragon chair, the queen sat on Xuanyuan Kun's left side, on the right side sat the favorite concubine Yue Guifei, and the other concubines sat on the seats below.

On both sides of the dragon chair, Xuanyuan Kun smiled and said in a deep voice, "Let's all be flat!" ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you."

Getting up, Bai Chuxia and Zhang Jinxiu glanced at each other, then walked to their seats and sat down.

Prince Xuanyuan Che was the first to speak, "Father, today is my father's sixtieth birthday, and my sons wish my father a thousand years of holy life, longevity, holy body and prosperity. ”

Immediately afterwards, the prince's bodyguard stepped forward and handed the prepared congratulatory gift forward.

The father-in-law Gao beside Wang Shang took two steps forward to greet him and got the oversized box, which was a bit heavy, and he almost didn't hold it without checking it for a while. Turning around, he walked to Xuanyuan Kun three steps away and opened the wooden box towards him.

"This is a pair of saddles that Erchen asked him to build a few days ago, and when he hunts in October and autumn, my father can use this saddle to hunt."

Glancing at the saddle in the box, Xuanyuan Kun was very satisfied, "Well, the prince has a heart." ”

Immediately after that, the second prince Xuanyuan Zhi stepped forward and saluted Xuanyuan Kun, "Erchen wishes my father and the king immortal blessings forever, and longevity and heaven." ”

Xuanyuan Zhi's birthday gift is a night pearl the size of a pigeon's egg, and the king is very happy to see such a big night pearl for the first time.

The birthday gift of the third prince Xuanyuan Qing is a batch of sweat and blood BMWs, and this birthday gift happens to be able to get together with the prince's saddle, and it is also very satisfying.

The fourth prince Xuanyuan Ming gave an inkstone in his hand, which was the most practical one of all gifts.

Xuanyuan Ming is so good at speculating on people's hearts, the inkstone that the king needs to review the chapter every day, and every time he uses the inkstone, he will think that it is a gift from Xuanyuan Ming.

Bai Chuxia's lips hooked slightly, and her thoughts were clear.

The birthday gift of the fifth prince Xuanyuan Lang is a peach, and the huge peach is cut on the spot, and each person eats a small bite.

When you are older, you like to be lively, although Xuanyuan Lang's birthday gift is just a peach, but the ceremony is light and affectionate, and the king also likes it the most.

Xuanyuan Kun touched his beard and said loudly, "You are all very filial, and I am very happy." ”

He is indeed very happy today, since recently, there has been no good news from the war with Beiyan, and he is troubled by the war.

Today is his birthday, and it's rare to be happy.

At the beginning of the banquet, the palace maids had some food, and the singing and dancing session was about to begin.

At this moment, the queen on the left side of the king spoke, "Your Majesty, I heard that Miss Bai plays the piano well, so let Miss Bai stroke the piano." ”

"Very good."

Xuanyuan Kun nodded and smiled, looking at Bai Junxiong. "Prime Minister, let the eldest lady play a song of mountains and flowing waters, I can hear that the eldest lady's adaptation of mountains and flowing waters is very exquisite."

"It's the king," Bai Junxiong got up and bowed to Xuanyuan Kun, and then said to Bai Chuxia, "Chu Xia, it's rare that the king and queen like it, so you can play a song for the king to congratulate the king on his birthday." ”

"It's father," Bai Chuxia got up, walked to the center of the hall, bowed down to Xuanyuan Kun, and said, "The courtier, Bai Chuxia, has seen the king." ”

"Hmm." Looking at the cold and white Chu Xia in front of her, Xuanyuan Kun was a little stunned, only to see that her skin was better than snow, her eyebrows were picturesque, and she really looked like a country! There are 3,000 beauties in his harem, and no one can compare to the one in front of him.

At this time, the palace maid had already placed the piano, Bai Chuxia leaned over and saluted again, sat on the stool, put his hand on the strings, and plucked it gently. The gentle and deep sound of the piano slowly comes out with the plucking of the fingers.

Just like on the day of the ceremony, the sound of the piano is like a beautiful sound, echoing in everyone's ears, as if there is a drizzle hitting the plantains, still in the ears, making people slowly intoxicated in this low-key piano sound. Suddenly, the worry is full of heart, and suddenly the feeling of sadness, just like the departure of a loved one, when waving goodbye, only look at the back from afar, and gradually move away, the hand can't even catch the shadow, but can only be blessed in the heart, even if it can't be accompanied by the left.

With the rotation of the fingers, the speed increases, and when it is excited, it is like mountain water, slowly flowing down, stirring and whirling......
