Chapter 293: Reward

Concubine Ru's eyes always fell on Yan Xue, and she never glanced at Pan Yuelian at all, she nodded with a smile, and said, "In this way, it can be seen that you are kind-hearted, but the dishes you made today are all vegetarian, so it doesn't hurt to eat them."

Yan Xue responded, and moved her chopsticks in a complicated mood.

In such a scene, Xu Manying, who was left out in the cold, was naturally unwilling, it was not easy to see her mother, it was rare for the concubine to take the initiative to summon her, she didn't want to miss the opportunity in vain.

Xu Manying took the initiative to get up and said: "Recently, Manying has been practicing her piano skills at home, although she is not exquisite, but she has grown slightly, why don't I play a song with ugliness?"

As soon as the words fell, Concubine Ru said, "You have a heart." As he spoke, he ordered someone to bring a guqin.

Seeing this, Pan Yuelian hurriedly said: "Back to Niangniang, if you want to talk about piano skills, I'm afraid that none of the people here can play the piano well, so why don't you let Sister Yan stroke the piano for all of us?"

Pan Yuelian has a sister's, and she calls it very kindly, and she thinks that the two are sisters.

As everyone knows, Pan Yuelian's move is in line with Concubine Ru's wishes, and she finally did something right that satisfies her.

Concubine Ru nodded and said: "I heard that at the last flower banquet, Yan Xue can be described as an amazing song, worthy of being the first talented girl in our Kyoto, and even her piano skills are also a must, so, this palace really wants to hear it, but I don't know what Miss Yan means?"

Concubine Ru is the most favored concubine in the harem, and the other party opened her mouth, if she resigned, wouldn't she embarrass Concubine Ru in public.

Even if her grandfather is here today, she has to give Concubine Ru three points of thin noodles, Yan Xue naturally didn't dare to easily brush off the other party's intentions, so she got up and said: "Since Niangniang has this Yaxing, then Yan Xue has to be ugly today, if she doesn't play well, I hope Niangniang and the sisters don't want to be surprised."

As soon as the words fell, Pan Yuelian said: "Sister Yan is too modest, your piano skills are exquisite, we have all witnessed it with our own eyes, if Sister Yan says this, how can we deal with ourselves with mediocre piano skills."

Xu Manying's body stiffened, what was this Pan Yuelian talking about, at this moment, she only felt that her face was slightly hot, as if she had been slapped by life.

Pan Yuelian's words were not intended to include her, just now she also volunteered to play a song for Concubine Ru Niangniang, but Pan Yuelian said this, how could she be embarrassed to mention the matter of performing again, the calculation in her heart was completely disturbed by Pan Yuelian's trouble. I'm afraid that at the moment, Concubine Runiang must think that she is a woman who loves to be in the limelight, so that her previous efforts will not be in vain.

Thinking of this, Xu Manying was so angry that she didn't want to fight, and it was not easy to attack in front of so many people, so she forcibly endured this breath. It's just that I am really unwilling in my heart, and I can't watch others rob the scenery.

Xu Manying's gaze swept around everyone, and finally landed on Su Jinzhao, today she looked very quiet, she didn't talk much, and she looked a little strange.

When Xu Manying was stunned, Yan Xue had already started to play the piano.

Xu Manying was stunned when she heard this, and even looked at Pan Yuelian's eyes with a little anger, if she hadn't been talkative, which round would have gotten Yan Xue, she should be the one who played the piano at this moment. This Pan Yuelian is really troublesome, her piano skills are not good, and she has ruined her plans alive, which is really hateful.

I have to say that Yan Xue deserves to be known as the first talented woman in Kyoto, with exquisite piano skills, everyone was fascinated for a while, and their eyes fell on Yan Xue, as if she was the most dazzling one in the crowd.

When everyone was paying attention to Yan Xue, Pan Yuelian came to Xu Manying's side at some point, and inevitably said to her proudly: "You see, Sister Yan's piano playing is so good, we have the best piano skills here, but some people are inadequate, knowing that their skills are not as good as others, and they feel that they are superior, but fortunately, they didn't give those clowns a chance, otherwise they don't know how to make a fool."

Xu Manying's face became very embarrassed when she heard this, it was clear that she was talking about her, and the so-called jumping clown in Pan Yuelian's mouth was undoubtedly talking about her. The implication is that she is saying that her piano skills are not as good as Yan Xue, but she just wants to be in the limelight.

This Pan Yuelian is commensurate with her sister on weekdays, but she didn't expect to turn her face faster than turning a book, which is obviously trying to disagree with her, so as to break her idea of behaving in front of Concubine Runiang. I can't fight myself, and I don't allow others to fight, it's really selfish enough to think about it, why didn't I find out that Pan Yuelian was such a person before.

The more Xu Manying thought about it, the more angry she became, if she was in her own house, she would have done it a long time ago, why put up with it until now.

She can't please Rufei Niangniang, but she wants to use means to destroy others, she doesn't believe that Pan Yuelian didn't have a mind about the second prince, and she doesn't believe that she doesn't want to marry the second prince, obviously they all have the same mind, and they don't allow others to have it.

It's just that what does it do for her.

Xu Manying's eyes flashed, as if she had thought of something, she pointed at Concubine Ru with her eyes, and said to Pan Yuelian: "Yan Xue is known as the first talented woman in Kyoto, and her appearance is also very outstanding. It's a pity ......"

Speaking of this, Xu Manying suddenly stopped, Fang Cai's face was still very ugly, but he was smiling a little weirdly at the moment.

Pan Yuelian was stunned, and immediately asked, "What is a pity?"

She felt that Xu Manying seemed to have something to say.

Xu Manying glanced at her, and said unhurriedly: "It's a pity that the sister of the Yan family fell in love with the third prince early in the morning, if she liked the second prince at the beginning, maybe now we have to change our minds about her, but the world is unpredictable, who can say for sure what will happen in the future, after all, the third prince married Su Jinzhao, the second prince has not married a wife at the moment, and most of the people invited by the concubine today are the daughters of courtiers who have not left the cabinet, or the daughters of famous families, the intention of this, I don't need to say, I think you must be clear in your heart." Just now you recommended the sister of the Yan family, I looked at Concubine Ru Niangniang and looked at her differently from others, but she looked a little more like. In fact, it is no wonder that in terms of origin and appearance, the sisters of the Yan family are the most outstanding among those of us who are not married, and her grandfather is the head of the old court, and her prestige in the court can be imagined. You say, we can all think of it, how can the concubine not know these truths, maybe she has already planned in her heart, to choose a favorite woman among us, today's banquet is just to explore the truth. ”

Hearing these words, Pan Yuelian's smug expression disappeared in an instant, and her face was not very good-looking in an instant, even more ugly than Xu Manying.

She just thought about how to cut off Xu Manying's thoughts, so that she would lose the opportunity to perform in front of Concubine Ru, so she pushed Yan Xue out.

Seeing the satisfied look on her face when she saw Yan Xue, she suddenly understood how ridiculous her behavior was, she was making wedding dresses for others.

Pan Yuelian hesitated: "Sister Yan admires the third prince wholeheartedly, for so many years, I have never seen her tempted by other men, whoever she likes is devoted to that person, you can't see others being good enough to say this." There is only one of the two princes, and after all, they all rely on their own abilities, and they don't want to provoke the relationship between me and Sister Yan. ”

Xu Manying was speechless when she heard her explanation. No wonder she's stupid, it's not unreasonable.

Xu Manying snorted coldly with disdain, and said meaningfully: "Now that the third prince has married Su Jinzhao, it is still the saint himself who decrees the marriage, in this way, it is to break Yan Xue's idea of marrying the third prince, if the concubine intends to marry the Yan family, it is not impossible to follow the example of the third prince and ask the saint to marry." Your sister Yan is only afraid that she will be heartbroken by the third prince now, and marrying the second prince will marry into the heavenly family and glorify the lintel, I don't believe she will not agree. As for whether I'm right or not, let's see. ”

After speaking, Xu Manying stopped talking, a stupid person like Pan Yuelian just talked too much, and simply saved effort.

Back in her seat, Pan Yuelian thought carefully about what Xu Manying said just now, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that what Xu Manying said was reasonable, and the more she regretted it in her heart.

If it was really Xu Manying's words, Yan Xue was taken by Concubine Ru and intended to let the second prince marry her, wouldn't her actions help Yan Xue.

Thinking of this, Pan Yuelian's heart tightened, she never thought that she would do such a foolish thing.

Jin Zhao listened quietly, while drinking tea leisurely, the scene of Pan Yuelian and Xu Manying's conversation, she saw it in her eyes, although it was far away, fortunately, she had learned some lip language in her previous life, and the content of what the two said was listened to word for word.

This Xu Manying is not stupid, she can actually see through this. Compared with the reckless Pan Yuelian, it is much better.

However, looking at this scene, Jin Zhao did not find the slightest resistance in Yan Xue's eyes, it seemed that she was willing, it seemed that she guessed well, she was thinking about Yuwen Xian.

Seeing that Yu Wenyu married him, he felt that he had no chance, so he considered Yu Wenxian.

It's just that with Yan Xue's strong temperament, will she be so willing? I'm afraid not.

If she was a person who let go easily, she would not have repeatedly troubled herself in her previous life and framed herself everywhere.

I'm afraid it has ulterior motives.

At the end of the song, Concubine Ru clapped her hands and applauded: "It is worthy of being the granddaughter of Yan Ge, she plays the piano very well, I knew that Yan Xue played a good piano, and this palace should have listened to it a long time ago, yes, it's really good."

As he spoke, he took off a bracelet in his hand: "I just listened to such a moving tune, it is very rare, and this palace will give you the bracelet that I have carried with me for many years, this bracelet was given by Xian'er on the birthday of this palace, and it is considered to have some thoughts, so it should be regarded as a reward for you."

The bracelet that the second prince gave to Concubine Ru, but Concubine Rufei transferred it to Yan Xue, which shows that her intention could not be more obvious, this is a tacit acquiescence to Yan Xue in her heart.

Yan Xue wanted to excuse herself and said: "Such a valuable thing, how can Yan Xue be virtuous, I really can't accept it, please take it back like a concubine."

If the concubine gave her something, it was really unexpected, and this bracelet was given by the second prince, and the discerning person could see the intention at a glance, how could Yan Xue not know.

How did Yan Xue excuse herself, Concubine Ru was determined to give her a bracelet, Concubine Ru said: "Since this palace has opened its mouth, this bracelet is given to you, how can there be any reason to take it back, and this palace has always been a person who says the same, I am afraid that this bracelet will not be able to be taken back."

Hearing this, Yan Xue knew that the bracelet would not be returned, and if she didn't accept it, she would undoubtedly embarrass Concubine Ru in front of everyone. If Concubine Ru loses face, I'm afraid the situation is not good.

Since this is the case, Yan Xue simply accepted the bracelet.

"Yan Xue, thank you for the reward."

Yan Xue accepted the bracelet and returned to her seat under the envious eyes of everyone. Pan Yuelian on the side stared at the bracelet on Yan Xue's hand, with a look of envy and at the same time, she said tentatively with a little jealousy: "Sister Yan is really blessed, she can get the reward of Concubine Ru, it is said that Concubine Ru Niangniang does not often reward people, or the bracelet given by the second prince, it can be seen that she likes you in her heart, I don't know what Sister Yan thinks in her heart?"

Pan Yuelian inevitably let others hear it, and the voice was not loud, but it fell into Yan Xue's ears word for word.

How could the smart Yan Xue not hear the meaning of Pan Yuelian's words, she was obviously testing her own thoughts. In the final analysis, she just doesn't want anyone to compete with her for the second prince, even if she has no intention of marrying the second prince, but there are so many official ladies, how can she fight for just one Pan Yuelian.

But the current situation is different, the third prince has married Su Jinzhao as his wife, she has to plan for herself, but the concubine is interested in her, this is a good opportunity, how can she give it away.

It's just that at the moment, she doesn't want to be seen by Pan Yuelian so early, Pan Yuelian is still of some use to her after all, she doesn't want to turn her face and cause discord because of this.

Yan Xue said: "Look at what you are talking about, what I think in my heart, how can you not know, among the sisters here, I always thought that you were the one who understood me best, but I didn't expect to ask this today, it seems that I thought too much."

After hearing this, Pan Yuelian seemed to believe it, and said without thinking about it: "Sister Yan said that I laughed, I naturally understand you, but if the concubine gives you something, it is difficult not to make people think about it, don't be surprised."

As soon as the words fell, Yan Xue tried to take off the bracelet and said to her: "Niangniang just said, there is no reason to take back the things that are sent, if I don't accept it, I'm afraid that it will make her unhappy, and if you change to someone else, maybe you will accept it, if you like this bracelet, take it, can't you and I not be worth a bracelet."

Pan Yuelian looked at the bracelet in Yan Xue's hand, and was a little moved, but if she accepted it like this, what would it be. The bracelet that Concubine Ru gave to Yan Xue was not for her, so she couldn't ask for anything about this bracelet.

Pan Yuelian replied: "Since it's for you, how can I want to go, I don't want to upset Concubine Runiang."
