Chapter 262: Zhang Youtao performs
The queen held back her anger and said, "If you have anything to say, say it quickly, don't delay the detoxification of Hongyun!" ”
Zhang Youtao smiled slightly and said, "It's not difficult to detoxify Sister Hongyun, just give her the antidote!" ”
"But the side effect of this antidote is that it makes people squat in a hut for about half a day before the toxins can be expelled. I suggest that Sister Hongyun be helped to the thatched house first, so as not to make a fool of herself after eating the antidote! ”
Hongyun listened to Zhang Youtao's words, fell to the ground and cried sadly! She shouted to the queen: "Queen, please give the slave and maid death, the slave and the slave and the slave can't bear this humiliation anymore!" ”
You must know that although the people of Dayuan Country are open, it is still very hurtful for a girl's family to talk about going to the toilet in public!
Let Zhang Youtao say this, Hongyun's face felt even more uncomfortable after being slapped hard!
The queen hurriedly said: "What nonsense are you talking about, this palace still needs you to serve!" ”
Then she turned to the other maid next to her, Lu Ping, and said, "You go to the sixth princess to get the antidote first, and then help Hongyun to the side hall." ”
The Queen Mother also said loudly: "Let Hongyun, this girl, be wronged, let her go to the tent in the palace to get fifty taels of silver in a while!" ”
Lu Ping walked up to Zhang Youtao with an angry face and saluted: "Please also ask the sixth princess to give the slave and maid an antidote!" ”
Zhang Youtao smiled indifferently at Lu Ping, took out a small paper bag from her waist and handed it to Lu Ping and said, "You give this pack of medicine to Sister Hongyun to eat all, as long as she says that her stomach hurts, she can quickly lead her to the thatched house!" ”
Lu Ping took the medicine handed over by Zhang Youtao and quickly helped Hongyun away.
All the princes and ministers were dumbfounded when they saw today's situation, and all the concubines and concubines were also whispering.
It turns out that this Hongyun and Gonggong Lin are the queen's close attendants, who always bully other slaves and maids in the palace, and always look arrogant in front of them!
But because they are the people around the queen, everyone dares to be angry and dare not speak, and now Zhang Youtao has used the topic to play a rectification, although everyone is silent on the surface, but they all applaud in their hearts, this is really a wicked person has a wicked person!
Zhang Youtao saw this kind of scene, quickly clapped her hands and said loudly: "Today was originally a celebration banquet for the six princes, but I didn't expect everyone to see such a scene because of the people's daughters." Although this incident was harmless, it greatly affected everyone's interest and appetite. ”
"In order to make amends for everyone, I decided to perform a song for everyone to help the drink, I hope you like it!"
The Queen Mother looked at Zhang Youtao with interest and said, "Do you still play the piano and sing?" ”
Zhang Yongtao said: "Although the folk girl is not very proficient in the piano, she can still play the pipa and sing a song." Of course, my piano skills and singing voice are difficult to compare with the singing concubines in the palace, and please don't laugh at the Queen Mother! ”
Saying that, Zhang Youtao asked the palace maid in charge of musical instruments in the palace to hand him a pipa.
She first slowly plucked the pipa strings with her hand a few times, and suddenly the clear and soft sound of the strings slowly flowed out of Zhang Yongtao's fingers!
Zhang Youtao cleared her throat and sat in the center of the hall with the pipa in her arms and said to everyone: "My song is dedicated to the Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Queen and the concubines of the harem, as well as to all the princes and ministers present. ”
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Youtao plucked the strings with thousands of fingers, turned around and sang: "The spring breeze blows into my heart, and my heart that misses you is the surging flowing water......
The soft singing voice and melody flowed out of Zhang Youtao's mouth and fingers like a stream at the same time, which made everyone stunned!
The Queen Mother's eyes also widened, and as she listened, she thought, "What kind of heavenly sound is she singing, why have I never heard it?" ”
The queen was resentful when she saw Zhang Youtao in the limelight again, a layer of cold frost accumulated in her phoenix eyes, and the fingers holding the champa turned white because she was too hard!
The eldest prince, who was sitting at the top of the seat, was very dismissive of Zhang Youtao at first, but when he heard Zhang Youtao, he was also stunned by his beautiful singing voice and soft piano sound!
He looked at Zhang Youtao without blinking, Zhang Youtao sang in a low voice, her long eyelashes hung down, her delicate white and tender little face, as beautiful as a hibiscus flower under the light of candlelight, her black and thick hair, although she combed it in the simplest butterfly bun, but it made her whole person look fresh and refined!
The eldest prince was unconsciously stunned, and he secretly said in his heart: "God, since I was born, I have never seen a woman singing so beautifully. She looks like a fairy in the sky! ”
Everyone is enjoying Zhang Youtao's performance with their own hearts!
In a blink of an eye, Zhang Youtao finished performing, and when the last note slowly flowed out from his fingers and stopped, Zhang Youtao stood up with the pipa in her arms, and slowly bowed deeply in the direction of the queen mother and the emperor: "The people's girl is ugly, I hope you don't laugh!" ”
After about 5 seconds, the audience burst into warm applause, and all the princes and ministers stood up and praised: "The princess's singing voice and piano skills are simply amazing, I am really fortunate to have something to appreciate today!" "Love more book city
The emperor also nodded and said, "Well, that's good." This song is really good, I have never heard such a fresh and refined song as an emperor!
The Queen Mother interrupted the emperor's words and said: "Don't talk about you, even if the mourning family has lived for such an age, I have never heard such a beautiful singing voice and piano sound!" ”
The queen looked at the way the queen mother and the emperor praised Zhang Youtao, and suddenly had a plan and said: "The sixth princess is worthy of being a small family of jade from a commoner. I don't know how many times stronger the bold atmosphere is than the writhing women in the court! ”
The Queen Mother's face changed, and she turned her head to look at the queen and said, "What, you said that the sixth princess was born as a commoner?" ”
The queen continued: "Yes, as far as the concubines know, the sixth princess was born into a family of butchers from commoners. ”
The Queen Mother listened to the queen's words, and her face was much gloomy again.
Seeing the situation, Zhang Yongtao hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, folk girls usually like to study some herbs and the like, I have developed a special mask, which can be applied to people's faces, which can make people's skin white and tender, firm, and reduce wrinkles." ”
"The courtiers also developed a hair dye, using this hair dye is not toxic to the body, and it can also make the hair black and bright, the people have the heart to dedicate to the Queen Mother, and please ask the Queen Mother to smile!"
The Queen Mother squinted her eyes and looked at Zhang Youtao and said coldly: "No need, your kindness is appreciated by the mourning family, and the mourning family thinks that it is good to add this appearance now, so you don't have to bother!" ”
Seeing Zhang Youtao hit a wall in front of the Queen Mother, the queen couldn't help but smile proudly!
Zhang Youtao heard the Queen Mother's answer and knew that the Queen Mother's words had already played a role in the Queen Mother's heart, but she still tried her best to maintain a natural look, and smiled politely at the Queen Mother.
Then she turned her head to look at the queen and said, "The folk girl listened to the queen just now, and I feel that the queen is quite clear about the political affairs and folk customs of Liaobei Kingdom!" ”
"The folk girl is very curious, how did the queen know the folk customs of Liaobei after living in the harem for a long time?"
The queen mother and the emperor remembered the queen after Zhang Youtao's reminder. The words I said to Zhang Youtao just now suddenly turned ugly!
There is a hard rule in the Great Yuan Kingdom: that is, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and as the queen concubine of the harem, you only need to learn the duties that a woman's family should do. Politics is absolutely forbidden for them to intervene and get involved!
The queen usually blows the pillow wind to the emperor, and she is very skillful. She not only reminded the emperor to let the emperor make his own decisions, but also skillfully avoided the suspicion of interfering in politics.
But the words she said today because of the urgency of defending Hongyun made the Queen Mother and the Emperor suddenly displeased!
The Queen Mother glared at the queen and said, "Queen, where did you know these things about the customs and customs of Liaobei?" ”
The queen's face turned red and she said: "The concubine has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and these things are just a few words I heard from the concubine when the concubine and the eldest prince were chatting!" ”
The queen mother glared at the queen again and said, "I think it is better for the queen to care more about the various matters of the harem and help the emperor well." The military affairs will be handled by the emperor and the ministers, and it is better for our women's families not to get involved in politics! ”
When the emperor said this, the queen mother's face was not very good-looking, and he glared at the queen!
The concubines and ministers of the harem couldn't help but laugh in their hearts when they saw the queen deflated!
Seeing this situation, Concubine Yu, the biological mother of the six princes, hurriedly came out of the round and said: "The emperor, the queen mother, the queen, and the concubines are very happy because the six emperors have come back victoriously, and they have asked the palace band to rehearse a few songs and dances in advance to cheer everyone up. Please allow the Queen Mother and the Emperor! ”
The Queen Mother saw Concubine Xuan's face softened and said: "Concubine Xuan has really worked hard to make everyone happy, everyone should sit in their seats and enjoy the singing and dancing!" ”
After everyone sat down, the maid beside Rufei Niangniang gently clapped her hands a few times, and more than a dozen graceful singers came out of the apse and lined up!
At this time, the music sounded, and the song and dance performance slowly kicked off!
Zhang Youtao retreated to the seat next to the sixth prince and sat down.
Seeing Zhang Youtao, the sixth prince hurriedly comforted softly: "Don't be too sad, the reason why the Queen Mother is cold to you today is all because of the queen's provocation." ”
"There is a way to know that the horsepower has been seen for a long time, and when I have the opportunity in the future, I will take you to see the grandmother and the queen mother alone. When she understands your character and strengths, she will definitely like you as much as I do! ”
Zhang Youtao smiled indifferently: "It's okay, if I want to do something, I must succeed, this way doesn't work, I can change another way!" ”
The celebration banquet for the Six Princes ended with the soft dancing and cheerful music of the singers!
