Chapter 86: The drunkard doesn't mean to drink
Ruan Changle said calmly: "County Lord Anjin, you said that the concubine was poisoned without evidence, and now you say that the concubine killed the palace maid, I asked myself that I have never offended the county lord, why did the county lord pour dirty water on me again and again." ”
"Now that the witness is dead, you can't admit it, but justice is in the hearts of the people, and people have their own harvest." After An Jin finished saying this, he saluted the emperor and queen, and left first.
An Jin has always been willful, so the emperor and the queen did not pursue her for disrespect. Besides, An Jin knew that he was going to be sent to kiss, and it was understandable that he was in a bad mood.
"Chuan Jing Zhaoyin, investigate this matter thoroughly!" The emperor ordered.
After such a small wave, everyone was heartbroken, and they were absent-minded about dancing and drinking.
Ruan Changle accidentally met Ruan Jiaqing's eyes and was startled by her cold expression. And the prince sitting next to her also had a hint of warning in his eyes.
She picked up a glass of wine and took a sip.
failed to eradicate Ruan Jiaqing this time, even if she was too careless, she blamed that An Jin, who dared to expose her in public, they were still allies in the past, but now they have defected, and they can't be bought by Ruan Jiaqing.
Ruan Jiaqing redeemed a bottle of good aloe vera plaster from the mall, which has a soothing effect on burns, and the effect is even better when used after icing. She instructed Qiong'er to deliver the plaster, and she could be regarded as a note of today's saving grace.
The banquet continued, and the expressions on the faces of the emperor and queen were very natural, and they didn't seem to be affected by what happened in the slightest.
The queen mother's phoenix driver only came at this time, and everyone knelt on the ground to salute.
The Queen Mother has lived in Shoukang Palace for a long time and does not go out, she likes to be quiet, she has never liked to participate in this kind of birthday banquet and the like, she came this time for only one purpose, that is, to marry Ning Xin'er.
After all, she had already promised Ning Guogong, and it could be regarded as repaying him for saving him back then.
That year, the Emperor Taishang was only a Prince Bao, and she was one of Prince Bao's side concubines, the five sons won the succession, and the Emperor Taishang won the victory, but she almost became a victim of that struggle, it was Ning Guogong who just appeared and stopped the sharp arrow that rushed towards her for her, and her life was saved.
Ning Guogong served the emperor all his life and was a rare pillar of talent. It's a pity that his son is mediocre, and his grandson Ning Zhiyuan is a talent, but he has no intention of career, and he thinks about having fun all day long. But this Ning Xin'er, who has been everyone's best girl since she was a child, is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can write and martial arts, she is the only one who has received the true biography of Old Man Ning.
But because she is a daughter, otherwise she would have been able to take over the position of Ning Guogong.
Now that Ning Guogong has asked her, she has to agree. But Ning Xin'er wanted to marry, but King Jin might not be willing to marry.
The Queen Mother knows the character of King Jin too well, if he doesn't want to do something, no one will be able to come. This time, I can only try my best.
"Today is really lively, the mourning family has not gone out for a long time, and now when I see the beautiful faces in this room, my mood has become better." The Queen Mother smiled.
The emperor is a filial son, and he is happy to see his mother, and he is naturally happy.
"If the emperor likes it, let everyone perform their talents, what do you think?" The emperor spoke.
"Very good, very good!" The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction.
Her gaze swept over the many female dependents, and finally fixed her eyes on Ning Xin'er's face, Ning Guogong's granddaughter, really outstanding.
His eyes turned again, and he came to Ruan Jiaqing's body beside King Jin.
I saw that Ruan Jiaqing's clothes were simple, but he couldn't hide his outstanding appearance, his skin was brighter than snow, and his eyes were like a pool of clear water. The Queen Mother met the Jin princess for the first time, but she had already heard a lot of rumors about her.
She should have been the crown princess, but it's a pity that she, the imperial grandson, has eyes and doesn't know the pearl, so she gave up such a good girl.
Because of the presence of the Queen Mother, the atmosphere at the scene was pushed to a climax.
The ladies wanted to show their talents to win the smile of the Queen Mother. And showing themselves in such a scene is something they dream of.
He Shangshu's daughter, He Jiaojiao, performed a peacock dance, her figure is slender, with the rise of the tune, I saw her slender arms, conveying the agility of the peacock, soft waist, dancing out of the peacock's graceful, flying skirt, showing the peacock's gorgeous, delicate headdress, exuding the nobility of the peacock.
The Queen Mother smiled when she saw it, and immediately said happily: "It's a good dance, emperor, you should be rewarded." ”
When He Jiaojiao heard this, she immediately knelt down and waited for thanks, only to see that she was neither humble nor arrogant, and the etiquette was just right.
"According to the emperor's mother, what should I reward?" The emperor also replied with a smile.
"Isn't there always a lack of caring people around the emperor, I think He Qianjin is good." The Queen Mother looked at her more and more satisfied.
He Jiaojiao's appearance is not very outstanding, and even at first glance, she feels a little mediocre, but her facial features belong to the attractive type, and as long as she is gentle and virtuous, the Queen Mother is the least like those foxy women.
For example, the current queen, she is deeply disliked.
is a lot older, thinking about how to take care of herself all day long, how to fix her pet, as the mother of a country in Dachu, she has not done anything, and she can't even compare to a princess of Jin, what is the use of her.
"Then make her a concubine." The emperor said lightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
There are many women in the harem, and there is no difference between one more and less her. The key is that the emperor likes it, and that is her opinion.
He Jiaojiao was happy in her heart, but she didn't show it, she glanced at the emperor affectionately, and then hurriedly retracted her gaze, and said, "Courtier, thank you, Lord Longen." ”
He Shangshu also immediately walked out gratefully and knelt down to thank him, his daughter became a concubine, is he afraid that he will not have a chance to be promoted.
The smile on the queen's face was about to be unbearable, today was her birthday, but the queen mother, an old witch, dared to stuff a woman into the emperor's arms at this time, it was simply unreasonable.
Didn't she ignore the affairs of the harem, what are you doing here, it's just to block her.
"The queen shouldn't be upset, right?" The Queen Mother squinted and smiled, and she looked at the Queen.
The queen is the queen after all, no matter what, she maintains a graceful and luxurious smile, she replied: "The emperor is too worried, the person you fancy is naturally excellent." The emperor needs someone to serve him, if he is really a lovely person, then I will be a lot easier, and I can be lazy. ”
The queen's words are so clear that people can't find fault with them.
With the case of He Jiaojiao, everyone has worked hard to perform the next performance, if they are favored by the emperor or the prince, wouldn't they fly on the branches of the phoenix in an instant, but unfortunately, no matter how hard they perform, they will not have this opportunity.
Because the queen mother is a drunkard, she just wants to take this opportunity to do what she wants.
After some singing, dancing, playing and singing, the Queen Mother was a little tired, there were too many women, and if they wanted to take turns to perform, I am afraid it would take several hours.
Ruan Jiaqing looked drowsy, thinking to herself, when will it be Ruan Changle's turn, and after watching Ruan Changle's performance, she will immediately go home and sleep happily.
At this time, a gentle voice floated in, "I think these performances are very ordinary, if you have seen my eldest sister dance, it will be amazing." ”
The person who spoke was none other than Ruan Jingting. Call her smart, that's where she's smart.
She knew that Ruan Jiaqing would not let Ruan Changle go, so if Ruan Changle appeared to perform, Ruan Jiaqing would definitely have a way to make her sad.
After Ruan Jingting's reminder, everyone remembered that Ruan Changle was the first beauty in Da Chu, and even Ning Xin'er was inferior by three points in front of her.
Now, everyone's eyes are on her.
"Oh, let her put on a show." There was no joy or anger in the Queen Mother's eyes, although she didn't like this Ruan Changle very much in her heart.
even called Ruan Changle "she", it can be seen that she does not recognize this granddaughter-in-law at all.
Ruan Changle had already prepared the dance for the performance, so she didn't panic, so she smiled and said: "Concubine Ben just dances casually on weekdays, where can she compare to all the daughters." ”
"Since the imperial grandmother asked you to dance, you can just dance." The prince's tone was very impatient, and he thought to himself, just don't lose his face.
Ruan Changle came out of the queue at this time, went out to change into clothes and came in again.
Ruan Changle is going to dance today, the concubine is drunk, I saw her wearing a pink crescent moon sleeve dress, the skirt dragged the floor, and the waist was tied with a thin light blue tassel belt, and her figure was graceful and colorful.
"Eldest sister, how can the concubine be drunk without wine." Ruan Jiaqing smiled and groaned, revealing two cute little tiger teeth.
King Jin was very interested in seeing her, and she was about to fall asleep watching the singing and dancing, but now when she came to this Ruan Changle performance, she was so excited.
"Yes, drink some wine to have fun, and you can dance more excitingly." The crowd didn't know who said this.
The maid beside Ruan Changle filled her wine glass and handed her a glass of wine in front of her.
I saw her pull out her water sleeves, the music played slowly, the figure flowed, the wind blew the fairy robe, and the body danced with the rhythm. But after dancing for less than a few minutes, her body faintly felt uncomfortable, but she still held on, and even danced harder, and faintly heard the sound of praise from the crowd: It's really beautiful!
The first beauty of Da Chu is worthy of her name......
Hearing such a compliment, Ruan Changle was very proud in her heart, this time, she stole all the limelight, and she saw that the prince's eyes were also lingering on her.
She continued to dance, but gradually, her consciousness seemed to be a little blurred, and she didn't even know what she was doing. The mouth and throat that had just drunk were as hot and painful as if they had been burned, and the whole body was weak and weak.
She doesn't seem to be able to dance anymore, and her body is so hot......
Everyone suddenly opened their eyes wide, and they were stunned when they saw this scene in front of them, Ruan Changle dared to be in front of the public...... Undress!
