Chapter 174: The Singing Girl

Chapter 174: Song 'Girl'

The dinner in the palace was held in the Taihe Palace.

Jin Shaokang and Jiang Ruonan went to the palace and were led to the side hall of the Taihe Palace, Jin Shaokang was busy greeting those ministers and ministers, and Jiang Ruonan was also busy entertaining those 'female' dependents.

Now Jiang Ruonan is familiar with court etiquette, and there is no problem in 'dealing' with these ladies, his words and deeds are generous and decent, and occasionally he is a little playful and lively, plus many of these ladies have been helped by Jiang Ruonan, so Jiang Ruonan is very respected and loved by these ladies.

Because only officials above the fifth grade are eligible to participate in this banquet, all many familiar faces are not seen, such as Mrs. Liu's family who once spoke up for her in public.

After waiting in the side hall for a while, a eunuch summoned them into the temple.

The group split into two rows. Everyone bowed their heads and said nothing.

Different from the last time the queen's birthday banquet, this banquet is arranged on both sides of the main hall with two rows of small tables, and two people can sit on each small table. There was a large space in the middle, and Jiang Ruonan guessed that there was probably a singing and dancing performance.

The people sat down in their places under the guidance of the eunuchs. Jiang Ruonan and Jin Shaokang sat at the fourth table on the right, and the third table was Jin Shaokang's immediate boss, Lord Huang of the Ministry of War. And the fifth table next to it is the 'waiter' of the Ministry of Rites, Lord Lang.

Jin Shaokang and Jiang Ruonan greeted the officials and family members on the front and back respectively. Jin Shaokang saw that Jiang Ruonan was generous and decent, and remembered that she had been working hard for her own changes, and his heart was happy and full of emotion, and he cherished this hard-won feeling even more.

Soon after taking his seat, he heard the eunuch singing, "The emperor has arrived, the queen mother has arrived, and the queen has arrived!" ”

The ministers got up one after another, and at this time, Emperor Jing Xuan was in front, the queen supported the queen mother, and the three of them walked to the front desk.

Emperor Jingxuan sat on the dragon chair, and the queen mother and queen sat on the small table on either side of him.

When the three of them sat down, the ministers knelt down and shouted three times, long live, Chitose.

Emperor Jing Xuan's hand was raised slightly, "Zhongqing's family is flat." "The voice is not as neutral as it used to be.

Jiang Ruonan was slightly stunned in his heart, it's been so long, hasn't the emperor's injury healed yet? Remembering that he was injured for himself after all, he couldn't help but look up at Emperor Jing Xuan, but saw that although he was sitting upright, wearing a dragon robe with golden light, showing his momentum, it couldn't hide his haggard 'color'. It also looks like he's lost a lot of weight than before. She was a little worried, was his injury serious?

As if sensing Jiang Ruonan's gaze, Emperor Jing Xuan didn't turn his face slightly, looking at her, his gaze was complicated, and if there was substance, it made her feel weird. But after a moment, he turned his head away.

The ministers sat down, and after Emperor Jing Xuan said something about the scene, there were eunuch palace 'women' carrying black and 'color' filigree pins and gold food boxes, and the sumptuous meals were served to each small table.

Jiang Ruonan looked at the table, ten white 'jade' porcelain plum 'flower' pattern plates, which contained 'fine' and beautiful dishes, which made people salivate at a glance. There was a eunuch next to him who poured wine.

Emperor Jing Xuan raised his wine glass and said, "My body has not fully recovered, so I will use tea instead of wine to toast all the Qing family." ”

The ministers stood up and thanked the emperor and paid tribute to the emperor.

Emperor Jing Xuan said: "Tonight is a celebratory banquet, everyone is casual, and there is no need to be restrained. ”

The ministers saluted the emperor, the queen, and the queen mother, and then sat down and began to chat with their neighboring colleagues while using a few delicious foods.

The atmosphere of the scene slowly became lively.

Jin Shaokang first put a piece of beef 'meat' in Jiang Ruonan's bowl, and said softly: "The cattle in the palace are all fed with good forage, and the 'meat' is exceptionally delicious, you can taste it." ”

Jiang Ruonan picked it up and tasted it, looked up at him and smiled: "It's really delicious." As he spoke, he quietly put a chopstick of his favorite dish in his bowl, Jin Shaokang smiled, picked it up and took a bite.

The two sat together, although there were no intimate movements and words, but a look and a smile already represented everything.

All this fell in the eyes of Emperor Jing Xuan, he looked at Jiang Ruonan's white and red face, those eyes that were as bright as water, at this time she had a kind of charm that belonged to **, and Emperor Jing Xuan, who had countless palace concubines, naturally understood what was going on.

She looked at him with a tender gaze, and there was a sweetness that could not be concealed at the corners of her eyebrows and eyes. And Jin Shaokang, who has always been as cold as ice, rarely 'shows' a shallow smile at this time, and that smile makes her look more gentle.

How could she ever look at me like that......

Emperor Jing Xuan's hand couldn't help but clench the cup, jealousy biting his heart like a poisonous snake.

The Queen Mother next to her had been paying attention to Emperor Jing Xuan, and at this time, seeing him staring at Jiang Ruonan intently, she was afraid that people would see the clues, so she hurriedly reminded her, "Your Majesty, today's soup is good, the emperor should drink some, it is good for the body." As he spoke, he asked Huang Gui to bring him a bowl of soup.

Emperor Jing Xuan retracted his gaze at this time, and he reached out to take the soup from Huang Gui's hand.

The queen on the other side suddenly smiled at this time and said, "Queen Mother, look at Ruolan and Marquis An Yuan, the two look very affectionate." Queen Mother, it seems that you don't have to worry about Ruolan ...... anymore"

Before the words fell, he heard a "bang", and the soup bowl in Emperor Jing Xuan's hand fell to the ground, and the hot soup was spilled everywhere.

The hall that had been bustling suddenly became silent. Everyone looked at the head of the hall in unison, but saw that Emperor Jingxuan's face was 'pale' and 'gloomy', and the hearts of the ministers also sank at the same time. Jiang Ruonan and Jin Shaokang also looked at Emperor Jing Xuan, and Jin Shaokang suddenly felt that Emperor Jing Xuan's gaze on him was as sharp as a knife, and he was shocked.

"Bloom on the ground, wealth and glory! Don't be nervous, go on, go on! The Queen Mother smiled, then turned her face and scolded Huang Gui: "Useless minions, they can't even hold a bowl, and they don't call someone to clean it up!" ”

Huang Gui knelt down and kowtowed: "The slave should die, the slave should die!" ”

The Queen Mother scolded with a smile: "It's a big holiday, what can't die, don't get out of here!" ”

"Yes, yes, the minion lost his word!" As he spoke, he got up again and called a few eunuchs to quickly clean up.

Emperor Jing Xuan's face slowed down again.

The ministers breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the minions had accidentally broken the bowl.

Jiang Ruonan tugged at the corner of Jin Shaokang's clothes under the table, and laughed softly: "Startle me." ”

Jin Shaokang secretly shook her hand under the table and comforted her in a low voice; "It's fine." But in my mind, the 'yin' eyes of Emperor Jing Xuan just now always appeared.

At the head of the hall, Emperor Jing Xuan took a deep breath, drank the tea in front of him in one go, and then glanced at Huang Gui.

Huang Gui understood, raised his hand and patted it three times.

After a while, the music was soft, and in the next second, a group of dancing 'women' in white gauze clothes entered the clouds, dancing with the music, the long sleeves fluttered between the rotations, and the skirts fluttered, just like the fairy 'girl' descending to earth, making people dizzy and 'fascinated'.

Jiang Ruonan saw this kind of court dance for the first time, and he watched it with relish for a while.

The dance toast is happy, the ministers are more enthusiastic, and the toasts are constant, but they are afraid that the emperor is here, and no one dares to drink more than one cup to prevent gaffes after drinking.

After flicking their long sleeves, the dancing 'women' suddenly retreated to the 'door' of the temple, silent.

Everyone knew that a good show was about to be staged, and they all looked eagerly at the 'door' of the temple.

Suddenly, the music stopped, and then a clear whistle began, like a breeze blowing in the calm woods.

Immediately afterwards, a wonderful song came from the 'door' of the temple,

"A boat in the clear stream, autumn on both sides of the hibiscus."

The song is light and ethereal, like a dream, like a stream flowing down, and like a lark singing happily, in short, at that time, a kind of pure, pure, true, and beautiful singing, this kind of singing is like a thin silk thread, which firmly entangles people's hearts, and rises and falls with the song, and cannot be self-sufficient.

At this time, people are all thinking the same thing, and they all want to see what kind of 'girl' can make such a wonderful singing.

Jiang Ruonan was the same, and couldn't help but stretch his neck to look at the 'door' of the hall.

Jin Shaokang couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't worry, the guanzi that has been sold for so long always has to come in." ”

Jiang Ruonan's eyes twitched, and he turned around, "Master Hou, you can really disappoint your fun." "When he said that, there was no beauty at all......

Jin Shaokang smiled dotingly.

At the 'door' of the hall, the dancing 'women' flicked their long sleeves and slowly entered, and then turned around and slowly separated to the sides, revealing a 'woman' in the middle who was dressed in a light blue 'color' gauze and had a slender figure.

At this time, the 'woman' covered her face with long sleeves, and the beautiful voice continued to come from the bottom of the sleeve

"Cailing's 'girl', singing from the twilight gull."

With the ups and downs of the song, the body of the 'woman' moved slightly, and the waist that was not in a grip swayed gently, and the soft curve firmly attracted the eyes of all the men in the hall.

Then the 'woman' turned around, and the wide skirt was like a cloud into the mist, making her like a bird soaring in the sky. The two long sleeves are her wings to fly.

As soon as she turned around again, the delicate and incomparable appearance of the 'girl' was presented in front of everyone.

It's not beautiful, but the eyebrows are like green daisy, the eyes are like autumn water, and there is an indescribable charm between Gu Pan's eyes, his hair is like a cloud, his skin is like snow, his body is like a willow, and every move and gesture has a sense of elegance and agility.

What a beautiful woman!

Some ministers even had coveted "colors" on their faces.

Jiang Ruonan hurriedly looked back at Jin Shaokang, but saw that he was drinking wine and eating vegetables, and his attention was not on the beauty. She smiled and gently shook his hand under the table.

Jin Shaokang didn't move, but reached out and hooked her fingers. Jiang Ruonan even 'pumped' a few times, but he didn't 'pump' back, and his face quietly turned red.

Emperor Jing Xuan, who had been paying attention to them, saw this scene, and his face became even darker.

The Queen Mother watched it with relish and said to the queen: "There is such a 'girl' in the palace who sings and dances, why have I never seen it before?" ”

The queen smiled unnaturally, "I haven't seen the concubine either." As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Emperor Jing Xuan, but he saw that his gaze was resting on the body of the singer 'girl', and he sighed quietly in his heart.

The 'female' in the hall sings and dances, the singing voice is tactful, the dance steps are light, the body twists and twists the waist, the clothes are flying, and the long sleeves are flying, like the god 'female' flying in the sky, like the colorful clouds flying around. The melodious and tactful singing voice echoed in every corner of the hall like a heavenly sound, making all the people in the audience fascinated, as if in a dream.
