Chapter 21: Revenge

After waiting for a while, the Queen Mother was supported out by Nan Yitian and a woman, Yuan Muqing was busy following everyone to salute, and did not take a closer look, and when Nan Yitian sat down on the opposite side, Yuan Muqing saw clearly that this woman was Fang Manzhu.

I heard Ye Zi mention it before, the Fang family was degraded, but she didn't know why, Fang Manzhu married Nan Yitian.

"Look, isn't that the daughter of the Fang family?"

"What Mrs. Sister-in-law said is exactly, she is now Nanda's concubine."

"What? Can concubines also attend? ”

"Adults be quiet, Lord Nan is deeply favored by the Queen Mother, why not bring a concubine ......"

The officials behind Yuan Muqing discussed in a low voice, the voice was just enough for Yuan Muqing to hear clearly, he didn't expect Fang Manzhu to marry into the Nan family as a concubine, and he was also a poor person.

The emperor led the ministers to salute the queen mother three cups, although all the officials knew that the queen mother and the emperor were not in harmony, but the mother and son were filial, which made the historian blameless for a while.

Yuan Muqing picked up the wine glass, for some reason the cup was replaced with water, and approached Lu Qingfeng invisibly, she thought curiously, that's right, he did drink wine, how could he drink water himself, strange.

In fact, as early as when the palace maid served the wine, he confessed, saying that the lady would not drink, although the palace maid hesitated, but she did not dare to go against the will of the prime minister, so she could only secretly change the tea for the prime minister's wife and put it in the wine jug.

At that time, Yuan Muqing was looking at the furnishings in the hall attentively, and he didn't notice that the prime minister was stealing the day.

After three rounds of "wine", Fang Manzhu suddenly stepped forward, I don't know when she actually changed into a pink dance dress, and said: "Queen Mother, the concubine is willing to cheer up the dance." ”

On this occasion, it is not appropriate to dance suddenly, it will only make people cheap, but Fang Manzhu has already let it go, she is already a concubine, so why care.

The Queen Mother didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd, but she felt that it would be a good show, and it was okay.

"Good!"

Fang Manzhu got the Queen Mother's consent, and the musician who was ready early sat behind the screen with the instrument, the partridge flying song sounded, and Fang Manzhu also began to twist her waist, only to see her pink dance sleeves fluctuating in a dance music, Fang Manzhu was already enchanting and charming, and she was gentle and pitiful when she danced, and the men present were staring at her flying skirt.

The sound of the music slowly decreased, and finally echoed in the hall, making people want to follow the voice, and Fang Manzhu gradually stopped dancing, the Queen Mother was the first to lead the applause, and everyone slowly returned to reality from this dance.

"Not bad, good, reward!" The Queen Mother praised again and again, saying that this Fang woman's talent is the best in the capital, and she really has a bit of seductive appearance.

"Empress Dowager Xie, the concubine doesn't want any rewards, she just wants to ask the prime minister's wife for a lesson or two." Fang Manzhu was refreshing, and went straight to Yuan Muqing, how could she ask for advice, she just wanted to confirm her reputation for being talented and virtuous.

"I heard that Miss Fang was going to marry the prime minister, but Miss Yuan was sideways."

Yuan Muqing heard this sentence whispered by the officials behind her, she was simply wronged, she was obviously given marriage by the Queen Mother, how did she become involved in the marriage of the Fang family?

"Hey, this Miss Fang family is one of the best in the capital, don't look at the Yuan family, she looks good, but she actually has no ink."

"Then you can't blame her, her mother is gone early, how can a general teach a good daughter."

Yuan Mu Qingben didn't care about these rumors, but she couldn't tolerate these rumors slandering her father. Just as she was about to get up, Lu Qingfeng suddenly held her hand and whispered, "If you don't want to go, you can not go." ”

She knew that Lu Qingfeng wanted to protect her again this time, but she knew Fang Manzhu's evil intentions, she had to dance if she didn't dance today, and she couldn't let Lu Qingfeng and her father bear the consequences of this rumor for her.

She walked to the hall step by step, when she was a child, she was said to be unreasonable and vulgar by her uncle, and she was said to be the daughter of a martial artist by the official lady in the capital, she did not refute it, because they really did not see her who worked hard to learn qin, chess, calligraphy and painting at home, and never saw her father who drank wine and sang poetry and dancing at home.

She is still the same as her father in her bones, she is silent, she doesn't like to be showy, and she doesn't like to socialize.

"Concubines can't dance."

Fang Manzhu smiled proudly, it was really rude and difficult to get into the hall of elegance, she wanted to expose Yuan Muqing's vulgar and ugly true face, and let Lu Qingfeng see who was the most worthy of him.

"The concubines can only dance swords, please ask the queen mother to allow the concubines to use swords in the palace."

"That's right." She wanted to see how the play would end.

Fang Manzhu didn't expect that Yuan Muqing didn't come to admit defeat and beg for mercy, she was stunned for a moment, she didn't believe that this sword dance could be more brilliant than her dance.

Yuan Muqing walked into the screen, took off his heavy coat, and inside was a wide-sleeved robe that was gradually dyed in tea green, picked up the soft sword handed over by the palace people, and asked the musician to play a song Guan Shanyue.

She has not learned martial arts, but when she was in the Yuan Mansion, she saw her father dancing with a sword every day, and today she danced an ordinary dance, and she was afraid that she would not be able to hit it with one blow and shatter the rumors.

The sound of Zheng Zheng sounded, the angular voice was like a sound sword, Yuan Muqing slowly pulled out the soft sword from the scabbard, imagining that he was a soldier outside the plug, and reproduced his father's sword moves in his mind over and over again, a soft sword flew in Yuan Muqing's hand, like a silver swimming dragon, like a meteor crossing the sky, and like a willow leaf swinging in the wind, it was as soft but tenacious as a willow leaf swinging in the wind.

Lu Qingfeng was fascinated, that touch of green figure, every move and style had the same appearance, this was not like the little girl he loved on weekdays, but this seemed to be the little girl he liked, he couldn't tell it, but he felt deeply attracted by her firmness of "fighting against the water", and was attracted by the heroic and desperate Qing'er.

It's not that he hasn't heard those rumors, but he has never put them in his heart, and he knows that the little girl doesn't care. Today, he wanted to prevaricate the Queen Mother with three or two sentences, but it was inevitable that he would be forced step by step, and the mouths of hundreds of officials would not be stopped. And this Fang Manzhu is spreading rumors behind his back, and he is even more prepared today.

Lu Qingfeng only thought about protecting her, but when she heard those slanderous rumors, she could have ignored them, just like before. But Lu Qingfeng understands that what she cares about is protecting him and protecting her husband's face.

The sound of the guzheng stopped abruptly, and Yuan Muqing's soft sword was also retracted into its sheath.

The emperor stood up and applauded excitedly, and those generals, who finally had a dance that they could understand and was not bad, and who were also the daughters of the Shenwu generals, suddenly felt that they were raising their eyebrows and applauded, and they also worked hard when they applauded.

Lu Qingfeng also stood up and looked at his little girl with a smile, Yuan Muqing was shy by him, and lowered his head and smiled secretly.

"Last time I was in disaster relief, I heard that Mrs. even donated the congratulatory gift of her own marriage, which solved most of the problems for the victims.

Fang Manzhu grabbed the dance dress in his hand fiercely when he heard this, and his crystal nails were embedded in the flesh.

Nan Yitian didn't pay attention to Fang Manzhu's revenge, he looked at the green figure, the last time I saw her in the Prime Minister's Mansion, I felt that she had a good temperament, the sword dance just now was really a combination of rigidity and softness, and such a rare woman in this game didn't seem to make him lose the interest in playing.

Yuan Muqing didn't expect the emperor to reward her, so she quickly knelt down to receive the reward. She returned to Lu Qingfeng's side, and gradually the officials didn't look at this side anymore, and they all talked about other things to the officials who had a good relationship.

Lu Qingfeng handed out the clothes she took off, I don't know when he went to get them, he doted on him with a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on her head, and advised: "Put on the clothes when it's not hot for a while." As he spoke, he helped her tidy up her broken hair, which was a little messy from the sword dance.

"Oh" Yuan Muqing's strength was used up most of it, and there was no mirror, so she let Lu Qingfeng help her tidy it up, she was too tired, and very thirsty, she drank the "wine" in the cup by herself, but inadvertently took the wrong one, picked up Lu Qingfeng's wine glass and drank it all, drank it too fast, and when she tasted it, she felt that her mouth was spicy, and she hurriedly picked up another cup and rinsed her mouth.

Lu Qingfeng saw that she had drunk wrong, turned her head to the side and snickered, but unexpectedly met the eyes of the officials who were watching from the side. Where did this official see the smiling prime minister, he was immediately terrified, and quickly withdrew his gaze. Today's prime minister not only helped his wife wipe her sweat, but also helped her finish her makeup.

The civil and military officials who accidentally saw the prime minister and the prime minister's wife getting along all speculated that today's lady dancing the sword is so brilliant, it must be a miracle, or how to calm the prime minister.

Yuan Muqing, who drank the wrong wine, didn't know that the rumors about her had not decreased, but instead turned into her miraculous skills, and the prime minister was miserable.

The wine at the palace banquet was mellow and fragrant, but the stamina was very strong, and Lu Qing was a little dizzy, not to mention the prime minister's wife, who was not strong enough to drink.

Yuan Muqing was originally only one or two glasses of wine, but today she drank strong wine, and the sword dance also consumed most of her strength, and as soon as the banquet was dispersed, she couldn't open her eyes when she walked out of Renshou Palace.

When Lu Qingfeng saw the appearance of his little wife, he simply supported her leg with one hand and hugged the person horizontally.

"Isn't that the Prime Minister? He seemed to be holding the prime minister's wife. ”

"You bad old man, look at how good the prime minister is to his wife."

Lu Qingfeng ignored those inquiring eyes, the little girl had been seen by too many people in the past few days, and he had to hide her quickly and never show it to others again. He quickened his pace, leaving behind a group of astonished colleagues.

Yuan Muqing woke up in the car, but he was still drunk.

"Xianggong, is the palace banquet dispersed?" Very good, I still know him, Lu Qingfeng is secretly happy in his heart.

"Scattered." He tucked his cloak into the body of the little man in his arms, and replied softly.

"Great...... Well...... Finally scattered, I want to put the dress ...... It's off, it's too heavy, and this hairpin, it's too heavy...... It's too heavy......" As he spoke, Yuan Muqing began to pull out the hairpin and take off his clothes.
