Chapter 34: Meet the King of Jiangdu, Talent Show

After hearing Lan Qingyun's words, everyone who had a wait-and-see attitude towards this matter all started to talk about it, especially the queen, who took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, what Lan Shangshu said is extremely true, you were going to reward the blue mirror, but if she was allowed to enter the royal jade butterfly, wouldn't it be equivalent to indirectly snatching the only daughter of the national teacher, isn't this a reward turned into a punishment, let outsiders know, and think that my Lan Zhaoguo royal family is not grateful?" ”

The emperor originally wanted to give Lan Jing a princess status, so that it would be more logical for her to go to Kyushu and make peace, but this matter was not told to the queen and several princes before, but now that it has fallen into this embarrassing situation, the emperor is also helpless, silent for a long time, he said: "High priest, what do you think this matter should be?" ”

"In order to let the National Teacher rest in peace, Miss Lan asks His Majesty to withdraw all the rewards, which is understandable."

The high priest glanced at the blue mirror and said loudly: "Your Majesty named Miss Lan as the princess of Mingjing, in order to show the reward for the national teacher, and by the way, it is understandable to take care of Miss Lan for the national teacher. ”

The national teacher did not point out his attitude at the beginning, but after saying this, his attitude is clear enough.

The eldest princess and the queen saw that the emperor was firm, so they didn't say anything, and the fourth princess still insisted, but was dragged by the third prince and stopped.

It was the party of Blue Mirror who was smashed by the emperor's sudden reward, she just wanted the emperor to take back the reward to the National Teacher's Mansion, so that the second family would not take advantage of the National Teacher's Mansion and give them a lesson, who would have thought that she would also earn the identity of a princess?

However, Lan Jing has always believed that pies will not fall from the sky, and after reacting, he immediately said: "Your Majesty, Lan Jing has the care of the old people left by his father, and he can be completely independent, the princess has a noble status, all of them are royal blood, and the courtiers ask themselves if they are blessed to accept such a noble status, and I implore Your Majesty to take back their lives!" ”

"Okay Jing'er, don't be modest!" The emperor waved his hand and rejected Blue Mirror's request, "Come here, take pen and ink and jade butterflies, and immediately implement the identity of Princess Mingjing." ”

The chamberlain soon brought the princess jade butterfly and pen and ink, after the emperor wrote the holy decree, he immediately announced, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, there is a blue mirror for the orphan girl of the National Teacher's Mansion, virtuous and dignified, filial piety and generosity, won my heart, from now on, I will give the princess Mingjing, enjoy the treatment of a good product, Qin this!" ”

Lan Jing muttered in his heart, but he still knelt down to bow to the decree, "The courtiers are grateful!" ”

Lan Jing stood up with the holy decree, and the courtiers and princes and nobles in the main hall congratulated in unison, "Congratulations to Princess Spiegel, congratulations to Princess Spiegel!" ”

Blue Mirror was still confused in his head, and he replied, "Thank you!" ”

At this moment, the waiter shouted sharply from outside the door, "The king of Jiangdu has arrived!" ”

Everyone looked over together, and they saw a man with a long body, dressed in a dark robe, wearing a purple and gold crown, and a thin silver mask on his face, and everywhere he passed, it seemed to exude a chill that made people tremble.

The emperor hurriedly stood up, "The king of Jiangdu came from afar, I have lost the welcome, I have lost the welcome, I have lost the welcome, hurry, please!" ”

The emperor said, raised his hand slightly, and the king of Jiangdu didn't even look at him, and went straight to the empty seat at the top of the left and sat down, without giving the emperor any face.

Lan Jing also didn't understand until now that the empty position next to the emperor was actually reserved for the king of Jiangdu, and the heart of Kyushu was worthy of being the upper kingdom of Lan Zhao, and a mere prince was so arrogant in front of the emperor of Lan Zhao.

The emperor put down his hand embarrassedly, and said stubbornly: "The king of Jiangdu is coming, my Lan Zhaoguo is really brilliant, I don't know if the prince's trip is still pleasant?" ”

The emperor had nothing to say, and Lan Jing felt embarrassed for him, just when everyone thought that he was going to be cold today, the cold-faced prince finally spoke, "Shang Ke." ”

Just two words, but everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, this master is a living Hades, in case he is unhappy, he will return to the army Lan Zhaoguo, with the strength gap between the two countries, Lan Zhaoguo will only be destroyed.

After getting the answer of the king of Jiangdu, the emperor remembered to let the palace banquet go on, "Come on, quickly serve wine and food to the king of Jiangdu, sing and dance, get up!" ”

The beautiful and enchanting dancers came to the stage, and the tense atmosphere in the Yaohua Palace was finally a little relaxed.

Jiang Ranran took the opportunity to approach the blue mirror, "Jing'er, this King of Jiangdu, is really as terrifying as rumored, no, let's hide behind, I feel cold and panicked when I sit next to him!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Lan Jing subconsciously glanced at King Jiangdu, "It is rumored that King Jiangdu is very powerful, you are still talking about people from so close, I am afraid that people will not embarrass you?" ”

Jiang Ranran hurriedly covered his mouth, shook his head in panic, pointed to the vacant seat behind him with one hand, and asked Lan Jing with his eyes if he would go.

Lan Jing shook his head, "Today's seats are all arranged by the eldest princess, you and I sit randomly, what should the eldest princess do after the autumn?" ”

"What are you afraid of, she is a princess and you are also a princess." Jiang Ranran said with a sigh: "It's a big deal to let Your Majesty make the decision for you, I don't believe that on the first day you were crowned princess, Your Majesty will not face you." ”

"It's not a question of who Your Majesty is facing, don't make trouble, just sit down." Lan Jing pressed Jiang Ranran's arm to prevent her from moving, Jiang Ranran was helpless, so she could only admit defeat, "Okay, I won't move, you let go, you look thin and small, why is your strength so big, my hand is going to be crushed by you!" ”

"Ah, I'm sorry!"

Blue Mirror hurriedly let go.

Jiang Ranran smiled and said, "It's okay, it's not very painful, I'll tease you!" ”

Blue Mirror glared at her in disgust and didn't speak.

Jiang Ranran tugged on Lan Jing's sleeve again, lowered her voice and whispered in her ear, "Jing'er, why do I think that King Jiang Du has been looking at us, you say, he can't have heard what I just said, right?" ”

Lan Jing was shocked, although she knew that the rumors were not entirely credible, but the reputation of the king of Jiangdu Beitang King's landing could be so terrifying, there must be two brushes, she didn't want to offend such a powerful enemy just after meeting, so she subconsciously glanced back and met the eyes of the king of Shangjiangdu.

What kind of eyes are they?

Apathy, coldness or fearlessness of life and death?

Blue Mirror had never seen such frightening eyes, and tried to suppress the fear in her heart, pretending to be casual and shifting her gaze to the dancing girl in the center of the hall.

To entertain a VIP like King Jiangdu, the dancing female musician used is naturally not ordinary, and if you look at it carefully, it is quite pleasing to the eye, but the blue mirror has been running for too long, and it hasn't been long before the first dance music is over.

sighed regretfully, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, and listened to the eldest princess stand up, "Father Qi, the king of Jiangdu is a guest of honor in the kingdom, what an amazing song and dance he has never seen, why not, let the nobles of the palace have a discussion today, and help the king of Jiangdu by the way?" ”

When the emperor heard this, he touched his chin and nodded, "Qing'er, this is very good!" ”

Then he looked at the King of Jiangdu, "His Royal Highness the King of Jiangdu, what do you think?" ”

When King Jiangdu heard this, he didn't even nod his head, but only spit out two words indifferently, "Yes." ”

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, it was a good thing to be able to respond, if this lord stood there coldly and didn't say a word, his face would be lost.

Hearing this, the eldest princess immediately said: "Okay, then please ask all the sons and daughters to find partners by themselves, and after a stick of incense, let's start." ”

"Sister Huang, you're not right!" The fourth princess, Lan Xuehua, stood up.

The eldest princess frowned and looked at her, "What does the royal sister think?" ”

There was no anger in his tone, but his eyes had already implied a warning, today is to entertain foreign guests, you'd better not make any moths, otherwise, not only me, but my father will not let you go!

Lan Xuehua didn't care, "Not to mention letting the princes and nobles partner on their own, there is a difference in the number of people, how to decide the order?" ”

The eldest princess didn't expect Lan Xuehua to raise such a question, although it was out of place, it was indeed a problem that needed to be solved urgently.

It's a common problem, but because her opinion was only improvised, she really didn't know how to solve it all of a sudden.

Just when the eldest princess hesitated, the second prince Lan Xuechen smiled lightly: "What kind of problem is this, since it is a free partner, there is naturally no need to care about the number of people, as for the order, it is very simple, whoever is ready will go first, there are so many talented and beautiful people in the hall, there will always be someone who completes the preparation before others, right?" ”

"What the second emperor brother said is, so be it." The eldest princess made a decision, "Next, ladies and gentlemen, please quickly find your partner and prepare for the show." ”

"It's over!"

Jiang Ranran's body collapsed, "Jing'er, what should we do?" ”

"Does everybody have to perform?" Lan Jing was also speechless, "Isn't the Ministry of Etiquette supposed to arrange this kind of thing a long time ago for entertaining foreign guests, why do you still have temporary tasks?" ”

"The devil knows what His Majesty is thinking, and as soon as the eldest princess said it, he agreed." Jiang Ranran complained angrily, his eyes were about to roll to the sky.

"Is your brother going to put on a show too?"

"Him?" Jiang Ranran shook his head violently, "No, he is the commander of the patrol battalion, responsible for protecting everyone, he came to perform the show, isn't there a mess in this palace?" ”

"That's right." Lan Jing touched his chin with one hand and frowned: "Aren't you the county lord of the Guogong Mansion, don't you have any talent?" ”

Jiang Ranran was angry, "Then you are still the eldest lady of the National Teacher's Mansion, and now you are already a princess, don't you still have no talent?" ”

Lan Jing burst out laughing, "You compare with me, you don't know, how much my father spoils me, I said I don't want to learn, he really won't let me learn anything, can you be the same as me, my aunt is looking for you every day this gentleman, that master, even if you boil, you should boil out a talent that you can get out, right?" ”
