Chapter 23 There is a woman who can be a concubine
The woman was really bright and romantic, the prince and Xue Ke knew it as soon as they saw this face, and the king of Qin suddenly realized why the queen mother confidently assured him that the prince would definitely choose this Zhuang girl, so that he was ready to marry the Yang family. For no other reason, this face is too much like Xue Ke. If she takes off her makeup, I'm afraid that this Zhuang family is even more beautiful and elegant, but she is dancing at the moment, deliberately dressed up more charming, and even he is confused by candlelight. King Qin smiled bitterly, although the queen mother was strategic, he glanced at the little maid beside the prince, but the main son was by his side, I was afraid that the queen mother was going to fail.
The prince looked back at Xue Ke, thanks to bringing her over today, otherwise he would have to worry about whether the queen caught Xue Ke over, and at the moment he just turned his body and hid Xue Ke even more in the shadows, raised his glass and drank carefully, sneering in his heart, of course he knew that this play was aimed at him, but he wanted to see how the queen continued to sing.
There are people who have seen Xue Ke before, so they are naturally silent, those who have not seen it, the atmosphere is not right when they see it, although they don't know why, they are also Mingzhe to protect themselves, and there is silence all around, and their eyes are on the two people in the upper seat.
The emperor's face was uncertain. The little girl in Xue's mansion naturally remembered that she had a good appearance, and he also half-truthfully said to General Xue: "This girl is our royal daughter-in-law, Lao Xue, you have to take care of it", but he didn't mention the past. He smiled and asked, "Zitong, this show is really unbelievable, whose girls are these?" ”
The queen smiled: "Does the emperor still remember Zhuang Daru of the previous dynasty?" ”
The emperor raised his eyebrows and said: "Zhuang Daru is the one who enlightened me, how can I not remember?" It's just that Zhuang Daru died 20 years ago, and later died of illness in Shandong, which is really sad. ”
The queen summoned the woman in green to step forward and said: "This is Zhuang Daru's little granddaughter, Zhuang Daru loved her the most during her lifetime, her poems, calligraphy and paintings are all passed down by Zhuang Daru himself, and his handwriting is even more profound Zhuang Daru's essentials, Your Majesty may be a little relieved." ”
The emperor was suspicious in his heart, his face was more kind, and he asked her some homely words with a smile, and the Zhuang family said slowly, only to hear that although she tried hard to bite the words, there was still some Shandong accent in her mouth, and said: "The courtiers have been following her father in her hometown in Shandong, so the official words are not good, and please Your Majesty Haihan." ”
The emperor listened to her clearly, and the scene of his life with Zhuang Daru when he was young was also vivid, but he had no doubts in his heart, and said with a smile: "The Zhuang family has really learned people, the prince, the king of Qin, what do you say?" ”
Everyone's hearts were in a daze, although they didn't know what the emperor meant, but they knew that if the crown prince and the king of Qin responded on this occasion, this woman would step into the royal family. The queen's heart also mentioned her throat, this is the crown princess she carefully looked for for the prince, the family background is prominent but there is no real power, but the appearance is gorgeous but the emperor has committed a taboo, there is no more suitable candidate, she gently played with the tea bowl, quietly waiting for the prince's answer.
The prince stood up unhurriedly and saluted: "Father, the son was drinking just now, but he didn't pay attention to this Zhuang girl's dancing. ”
The prince's answer was unexpected, and the queen took a sip of tea to block the anger she couldn't suppress. The emperor smiled softly and turned to King Qin: "What does King Qin think?" ”
King Qin smiled bitterly, it was originally a word that the queen mother had told many times, but because she was there, he felt like a fish in his throat and couldn't speak. Seeing the queen's gaze, King Qin gritted his teeth and replied: "Erchen has just been distracted like the crown prince and missed Miss Zhuang's dance. ”
The emperor smiled playfully: "Why is my son distracted? ”
King Qin looked in the direction of the prince, and the girl beside him knelt aside, holding the wine jug intently, gritting her teeth and saying, "Just now, the sound of the piano was quiet, and the son was actually attracted." ”
When he said this, everyone present remembered the sound of the guqin just now, and they were all full of praise.
The queen said with a smile on her face: "Your Majesty, guess which girl is playing the piano?"
After the emperor saw that his two sons did not express anything to the Zhuang family, he was in a good mood and said cooperatively: "I can't guess, why don't you come to see the queen?" ”
