Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Sound of the Piano
I walked on the spacious Yuhua stone road, the hibiscus behind me carefully held an umbrella to shade the sun, and the rattan beauty fan in his hand was lightly fanned, thinking of what happened on the phoenix pier that day, I still felt funny, and the corners of my mouth unconsciously showed a smile.
Fu Rui looked at the smile on the corner of my mouth, and said suspiciously: "The master has encountered something happy again, and saying it makes the slave and maid smile." ”
I shook my head and said, "It's not that day, the so-called apparition I think is ridiculous from the bottom of my heart, but others don't seem to think it." ”
Fu Yuan nodded, and suddenly remembered something: "Master, but the slave maid is quite happy to hear that the emperor has been in and out of the concubine's Xinghua Spring Pavilion frequently. ”
I nodded thoughtfully, if it was when I first entered the palace, I would definitely be unwilling, but now my mind is no longer in Yongyan, I subconsciously touched my abdomen.
The green calyx walked in my direction, as if she hadn't seen me yet, but I clearly saw the anger on her face, and thought to myself that maybe I was angry with someone somewhere, "Qiao Guiren." I subconsciously stopped her.
The green calyx looked at me in surprise, the milky white pearl steps swayed, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes to look at me: "If I'm not mistaken, I'm a noble person anyway, you just promised, should you bow to me?" ”
Fleur was about to open her mouth to argue, but I stretched out my hand slightly to stop her, and smiled lightly and blessed my body: "Promise Ilgen Jue Luo has seen Qiao Guiren, not only Qiao Guiren's body has recovered since falling into the water?" ”
Green Calyx laughed contemptuously, hurriedly walked to me, ripped off the begonia jade hairpin on my head and threw it straight on the ground and broke it into two, Fu Yuan hurriedly stopped in front of me and said: "Qiao Gui can be self-respecting, the master is a pregnant person, if something goes wrong in front of Qiao Gui, the emperor will definitely blame the nobleman,"
I smiled at Fleur back and motioned for her to let go, and the green calyx playfully glanced at the hairpin that fell on the rain stones, stood on tiptoe and stepped on it with the bottom of the flower pot, and was unwilling to smash it to the point where it could not see its original face.
"Qiao Guiren, but I'm relieved." I laughed lightly and said lightly.
The green calyx then looked at me with a contemptuous smile, and slowly spoke: "Why do you come to sarcastically mock me, every time I see your bulging belly, I hate you more and more, the emperor will not punish you does not mean that I will let you go!" ”
After the green calyx finished speaking, he angrily shook his sleeves and left, and I said casually behind me: "You are still as impetuous as before, it is not the way to survive in the palace, and you must be careful of Qing Concubine." ”
Hearing this, the green calyx turned around and looked at me playfully, with a sarcastic smile on the corner of her mouth, and left with a cold snort that didn't care. I stood there and shook my head helplessly, and a thin voice came from behind me: "The slave promised to Jin." ”
I turned around and saw the groveling Dai Fangde's father-in-law, who was the person next to the Queen Mother, and I also smiled respectfully: "It turned out to be Dai's father-in-law, is there any order from the Queen Mother?" ”
Father-in-law Dai smiled coincidentally: "The Queen Mother happened to see Jin in Luxiang Zhai just now, so the Queen Mother came over with a slave and asked Jin to agree." ”
I glanced at Lu Xiangzhai, who was only a few steps away, and said with a smile: "Then it will be troublesome for my father-in-law to lead the way." ”
Dai Gonggong walked in front with a smile, entered Luxiang Zhai, and saw the Queen Mother sitting on the top slightly nervous, walking cautiously, and before saluting, he heard the Queen Mother's deep voice: "Jin promises, excuse me." ”
He bowed his head and said softly, "Yes." "I looked up at the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother was pleasant, and my heart was slightly relaxed. I lowered my head and inadvertently glanced at the Queen Mother sitting next to the concubine, who looked at me like a concubine and glanced at me with a smile.
Looking around, there were only Concubine Ru, Concubine Rong and Concubine Qing, Concubine Rong glanced at me with a smile, and I responded like this. I glanced at the Qing Concubine sitting opposite, dressed in water-green clothes, embroidered with a hundred flowers, the embroidered flowers were very real, the big flowers were delicate, and she looked at the Queen Mother with a well-behaved look.
Concubine Qing blessed her body and said with a smile: "If the Queen Mother feels bored, the concubine can sing a little song for the Queen Mother." ”
The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, and she nodded: "I have long heard that Concubine Qing can sing and dance, so let's listen to it if the mourning family is free today." ”
Concubine Qing smiled slightly, smiled at me, and said modestly: "The Queen Mother has won the award, there is no shortage of sisters in the palace who can sing and dance, Sister Jin's dancing posture is unmatched in the palace, but unfortunately my sister is pregnant, so I can't see my sister's demeanor." ”
I smiled slightly at Concubine Qing, and Concubine Qing then said apologetically to the Queen Mother: "The concubine can't play the piano, I'm afraid it's going to sweep the Queen Mother's interest." ”
Concubine Ru smiled slightly, attached to the Queen Mother's ear and muttered two sentences, the Queen Mother's eyes looked at me as if nothing, and then muttered: "I heard that Jin promised to play the piano well, I don't know if the mourning family has this ear blessing today?" ”
Concubine Qing got up at a loss and said, "Queen Mother, this, Jin promised to be pregnant." ”
I sneered in my heart: such a coy gesture. I softened my face and got up: "The queen mother wants to hear how the concubine refutes the queen mother's face, and the concubine will be ugly." ”
The Queen Mother ordered someone to get the piano, and I put on a good posture and played it skillfully with ten fingers, such as the mountains and flowing water, the Qing Concubine's lips opened slightly, and the voice sang tactfully: Hibiscus flowers on Furong Lake, the autumn wind has not fallen like the morning glow, and you must be drunk if you carry wine......
Qing Concubine's voice is crisp, rare and pleasant, I subconsciously glanced at the Queen Mother, she was listening attentively with her eyes closed, I didn't keep up with a high note of Qing Concubine, the piano and the song were messed up, and the music stopped abruptly, the Queen Mother opened her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Concubine Qing bowed her head in front of me and said, "It's the concubine's fault." ”
The Queen Mother said with a gloomy voice: "The mourning family has heard it, I don't blame you, but the mourning family feels that Jin's promise seems to be very reluctant to play for the mourning family, is it because the mourning family is wrong?" ”
I got up and said without humility or arrogance: "The concubine is not intentional, it's just that the concubine hasn't played for some days, so it's inevitable that she will be rusty." ”
Concubine Rong came out of the round with a smile, "Queen Mother, Jin promised that she hadn't played it for a long time, so she must be rusty, why don't you let the concubine play a song for the Queen Mother?" ”
The Queen Mother nodded slightly reluctantly, a sneer on the corner of Concubine Ru's mouth, and said lightly: "It's really disappointing." ”
My heart sank, and I retreated to my seat, Qing Concubine looked at me contemptuously, and sat aimlessly all afternoon, as if listening to Concubine Ru, Qing Concubine and the Queen Mother chatting about family life, I could only listen to it from the side, and I couldn't interject.
I sighed: it was because I wanted to see my jokes that was the goal. After the Queen Mother left, I said lightly to the Fu Hui beside me: "Let's go back too." ”
