"Why does the princess treat the concubine like this?"

"Why bother? She came to me to find sin, and if I didn't fulfill her, wouldn't I make her run for nothing? Tao Mingxi jumped off the swing, blessed Xing Tianze slightly, and then walked to the house.

After all, he is a prince, so the respect he should give is still given, in case he is angry, how about wearing small shoes for himself?

Seeing Tao Mingxi's ignorance of himself, Xing Tianze frowned slightly.

He raised his eyes to look at the firewood room, glanced at the maid guarding outside, and followed Tao Mingxi into the house.

Seeing Xing Tianze following up, Tao Mingxi was stunned, and said in his heart, what is he doing here?

"Tomorrow's palace banquet is very important, you don't often attend palace banquets, if there is anything unclear, you can ask me."

Tao Mingxi was a little surprised, he didn't expect Xing Tianze to think of this.

If you look at everything else, he is still a very careful man.

"I don't have to worry about these things, thank you for your kindness."

"Then the king is looking forward to the princess's performance tomorrow."

Tao Mingxi smirked, looking forward to you as a ghost!

"It's not too early, but the prince plans to stay here for dinner?"

Tao Mingxi was just polite, but he never thought that Xing Tianze would really respond!

"Since the princess invited this king to dine together, this king is not easy to refuse, Zhu'er, prepare an extra bowl and chopsticks."

In this way, under Tao Mingxi's almost murderous gaze, Xing Tianze walked to the table and sat down, and looked up at her and smiled slightly.

The palace banquet was held at noon on the second day, and it was not much extravagant, just a simple ordinary family banquet.

But even for the family banquet, the concubines in the palace are also competing for beauty, and the other princesses are not far behind, but Tao Mingxi is refreshing and pure, but he has become the most eye-catching one in the crowd.

Zhu'er mentioned earlier that Sun Sisi, the eldest sister of the Sun family, is now the third princess, and she also specially told herself to be careful of Sun Sisi.

Although the third prince is a straw bag, he can't stand the fact that he was born to the imperial concubine, and he is still the eldest of the current princes, so the emperor also attaches great importance to him. And these three princes are soft bones, they were eaten to death by Sun Sisi, and everyone knows that he is afraid of guilt.

Therefore, compared to Sun Yingru, Sun Sisi is obviously much more difficult to deal with.

Sure enough, the feast had just begun, and Sun Sisi was angry at Tao Mingxi.

"How can Aunt Wang dress so plainly today, at a glance, Aunt Wang, you are dressed the most simply, but it seems that our juniors and ladies are extravagant and wasteful."

As soon as Sun Sisi spoke, he was full of gunpowder.

Tao Mingxi couldn't help but secretly slander, who is your aunt, this girl is several years younger than you, you old woman!

As soon as the ladies and concubines heard Sun Sisi's words, their faces immediately changed.

In the past two months, there has been a severe drought in the northern region, and the people's livelihood is suffering, and the emperor has ordered the whole country to implement a frugal style.

In fact, today's clothes are not luxurious for them at all, but with Tao Mingxi's comparison here, they suddenly became the "extravagant and wasteful" people in Sun Sisi's mouth.

Under everyone's sight, Tao Mingxi couldn't help but feel his head big.

She noticed that not only the ladies, but even the princes and even the emperor present were staring at her.

Tao Mingxi sighed secretly, thanks to his excellent psychological quality, otherwise he would have finished the game.

The third imperial concubine was serious. The ladies took the lead in advocating the style of thrift, and the whole country was full of praise, from the big and small officials to the common people of Li to follow the example of the ladies to take thrift as a virtue, which shows how much the ladies have played a role in commendation. The concubines were also deeply influenced by the mothers, so they wore so plainly, which was all the credit of the girls. ”

With a few words, he skillfully turned the spearhead in Sun Sisi's words, and resolved her difficulties with a few thousand catties.

Tao Mingxi secretly glanced at Sun Sisi, seeing that she had changed from her original arrogance to her current deflated face, and her heart couldn't help but feel refreshed.

The atmosphere became very delicate for a while, and on the main seat, the queen glanced at everyone with a sharp gaze, and then slowly spoke, "The fifth princess has a heart, okay, let's talk about family life at today's family banquet." The palace and the emperor are discussing, and in a few days, I will take you juniors to the Thousand Cities Villa for the summer. ”

The emperor said "en" and began to chat with several princes about schoolwork, and this matter was turned over.

But Sun Sisi obviously didn't plan to let Tao Mingxi go like this, and when she saw that she couldn't make a plan, she looked for another plan.

"Enlightening the father and mother, Erchen recently discussed the art of music with the daughter of the Prime Minister, Miss Xu's piano skills are indeed amazing, and Erchen only asked her for advice a few times, and he felt that his piano skills have increased greatly."

The queen was obviously very interested in this, and she couldn't help but cast a curious look at Sun Sisi, "In that case, why don't Sisi play us a song?" ”

Sun Sisi immediately responded, "Erchen obeys the order." ”

What she wants to play is "Tao Yao", which she has been practicing with Xu Yan recently, and Sun Sisi firmly believes that after her own hard practice and Xu Yan's guidance, she will be able to dominate the crowd.

After the song was finished, the applause was thunderous, and even the emperor couldn't stop applauding.

Sun Sisi stood up proudly, bowed to the emperor and empress, and then walked back to his seat step by step.

"Yes, yes, this song should only be in the sky, and it is rare to hear it in the world!"

The emperor opened his mouth to praise him, and the rest of the people were full of praise for Sun Sisi.

Tao Mingxi didn't even need to look at it, he could imagine what Sun Sisi's expression would be at this moment.

But this is not what she cares about, she wants to know how Sun Sisi will embarrass herself for a while.

"The son's skills are clumsy, and the father and queen mother have won the award."

In the face of so many compliments, Sun Sisi blushed slightly, pretending to be embarrassed to hide his face and smile.

But soon, she continued, "Erchen has long heard that Aunt Wu Wang was a model in Beijing when she was in Fuyang Kingdom, and her words and deeds, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are the best in Fuyang Kingdom. ”

Tsk, it's really vicious.

If you don't agree, it will appear that you are narrow-minded as an elder; If you agree, if you play better than Sun Sisi, then let's not talk about it for the time being, if you lose, it will be obvious that the entire Fuyang Kingdom will be suppressed, and it will inevitably be used as an after-dinner conversation in the future.

Although Fuyang Kingdom actually has little to do with her, at least in the eyes of outsiders, she is from Fuyang Kingdom! She and Fuyangguo can be described as both glory and loss!

Seeing Tao Mingxi's embarrassed face, Sun Sisi couldn't help but become more and more proud.

The emperor and empress naturally liked to see such a situation, and both of them looked at Tao Mingxi with the mentality of watching a play.

On the side, Xing Tianze saw that Tao Mingxi felt embarrassed, and couldn't help frowning slightly, bowed his head and said in her ear, "If you don't want to, this king can help you resolve this deadlock." ”

Tao Mingxi shook his head slowly at Xing Tianze after careful consideration, and said with a smile, "Lord Wang, look at it." ”

After saying that, she stood up and raised her voice to everyone, "The music of the concubine's mother country is naturally incomparable to our Xingzhao country, and they are all small songs that can't be put on the stage and are listened to on weekdays. If the royal brother and sister-in-law do not dislike it, then the concubine will be ugly. ”

Her face was full of confident smiles.

Joke, although she can't play the guqin, she has also been taught the flute by her aunt, who is an internationally famous bamboo flute master, for more than ten years!

Moreover, even if she doesn't know these ancient music, some modern world famous songs are also the tunes that Sun Sisi played.
