Chapter Forty-Six: The Bloody Episode Happens
Lan Cuiping's actions almost made everyone stunned on the spot as if they were frozen. Especially Zhao Zhiying, she never thought that Lan Cuiping would stick the silk handkerchief on her face in public, and even rubbed it back and forth.
“……”
Shangguan Qingyue, who had been watching not far away, also raised the corners of his mouth, and unconsciously silently praised Lan Cuiping in his heart. Slap the scumbag in the face, simple enough, rough enough!
"Stop! Lan Cuiping, what are you doing? At this time, Zhao Zhiying's face turned red with anger, the makeup on her face, but it had been depicted for nearly an hour, and she did it like this, wouldn't it all be spent? So she angrily pushed Lan Cuiping away, "You! ”
"Miss Zhao, what are you annoyed about?" Lan Cuiping returned to her previous indifferent expression and continued, "Since it is a reward from the queen's mother, Cuiping just wants to use your face to wipe it clean. ”
"You talk nonsense!" Zhao Zhiying was so angry that if it weren't for other young ladies to stop her, she would have already started, "How can you use my face to wipe a veil!" ”
"Yo, didn't you just say that this is a reward that you can't ask for, if it's as you said, isn't it on behalf of the queen's grace, and it's not as important as your face?"
Lan Cuiping tugged at the corners of her lips, slowly approached Zhao Zhiying and smiled, "Now, who is the one who is disrespectful to Niangniang, I don't need to say more, right?" ”
“……”
Zhao Zhiying was speechless, so she had to glare at her viciously.
"We'll see!"
After watching a small bustle, everyone dispersed. Shangguan Qingyue had no reason to stay here, so he thought about turning around and leaving.
"Sister Qingyue has seen enough of the drama, so she just left? Why don't you stop by for a cup of tea? ”
In the pavilion, the voice of Lan Cuiping greeting came from Shangguan Qingyue, which made Shangguan Qingyue stop suddenly.
"Miss Lan, don't come unharmed."
The people invited, Shangguan Qingyue couldn't refuse, so he simply turned around and walked to the pavilion and sat down together.
"Fang Cai, it really made Sister Qingyue laugh." Although Lan Cuiping's words were modest, his tone did not change in any way.
Shangguan Qingyue took a sip of fragrant tea, and her movements were extremely elegant, "Miss Lan is mighty, not comparable to some vulgar fans. ”
"Whether it's mighty or vulgar powder, presumably, you probably can't get into Sister Qingyue's eyes, right?" Lan Cuiping raised her eyes and looked straight at her.
"Miss Lan is too worried." Shangguan Qingyue also looked back at her, and her tone was calm and unwavering, "People respect me one foot, I respect others, and the world is full of variety, so why can't I say it?" ”
"Sister Qingyue is really broad-minded, no wonder she will be hidden by King Jing's golden house." Lan Cuiping smiled faintly, and the corner of her eyes swept over Wei Xueyao, who was coming towards the pavilion.
"Lan Cuiping, what nonsense are you talking about?!"
Shangguan Qingyue's hand quickly grabbed Wei Xueyao who was rushing over in time. She didn't look at it, this was the palace! But as long as Qu Jinglan is touched, Wei Xueyao's brain disease will be brought into full play.
"What am I talking nonsense, Sister Qingyue doesn't know better than anyone else?"
Shangguan Qingyue understands that what Lan Cuiping wants is this kind of effect of sowing discord, so as to cause infighting among others. But how can she let it succeed? This kind of trick to deal with other ancient little girls with a hundred spirits has no effect on her. Thinking of this, Shangguan Qingyue quickly hooked her neck tightly and said with a smile before Wei Xueyao, who was blushing and thick-necked, was furious: "Sister Xueyao, there is snowflake cream over there that even Prince Jing loves to eat, let's try it, it's too late, but they will snatch it up!" ”
After speaking, he turned around and forcibly took Wei Xueyao to the outside of the pavilion.
"Hey, Shangguan Qingyue, you ......" Wei Xueyao was grabbed by her neck and couldn't exert her strength, so she had to leave with her.
“......”
Lan Cuiping didn't expect that her fist seemed to hit a ball of soft cotton, and it instantly turned invisible. Shangguan Qingyue's reaction was enough to show that she didn't care about dealing with it. But is this something she can't do if she doesn't bother to deal with it?
"Heh, Haotian, you look at the girl of the Shangguan family, she is also very clever." On the other side, Feng Xiuling quietly pulled down Zhongli Haotian's sleeve, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "When she wears this set of Huanyan gauze skirts, she really has the shadow of Senior Sister Ziluo back then." ”
"Hmm." Zhongli Haotian looked at Shangguan Qingyue who was walking away, and his head was slightly bowed, and his heart was mixed. Back then, if it weren't for his mistake, my sister wouldn't have ......
Inside the Imperial Garden.
"The emperor has arrived!"
When Shangguan Qingyue and the others returned to the banquet and sat down, the father-in-law who accompanied them announced loudly. Everyone got up and bowed respectfully to greet them, and when the emperor signaled to be exempted, Shangguan Qingyue made up his mind and observed the protagonist of the banquet.
In the center, it is naturally Qu Shaoyuan, the emperor of Canglang Kingdom, with a golden crown and a dragon robe, revealing the emperor's ritual to the fullest.
On the left and right, they are the queen Li and the Hui concubine Wu. Needless to say, the queen is also in a yellow robe, graceful and luxurious. In comparison, Concubine Hui, that is, Qu Jinglan's biological mother, looks much more beautiful in a crescent-colored palace dress. Perhaps due to proper maintenance, he looks no more than 30 years old.
Further down, there is the current crown prince Qu Zeming, the second prince Qu Xiangchen, and the third prince Qu Jinglan. I saw that the three of them were all wearing dark blue palace clothes inlaid with gold wire, shining under the cover of some sunlight, looking luxurious and elegant.
As soon as the three handsome and dashing princes appeared, all the young ladies and girls present lowered their heads shyly and whispered from time to time.
The three princes did not have wives. Because the crown prince and the second prince often assist in local control matters outside, it is rare for the three brothers to get together, so for them, today's banquet should be a banquet for the emperor to choose a concubine for his son in disguise, a great opportunity, so in the next talent show, almost everyone is secretly determined to do their best to show themselves.
Shangguan Qingyue's gaze silently looked at the first few people, but unexpectedly met Qu Jinglan's gaze.
I saw that he seemed to be warning, and after squinting at her slightly, he made a mistake.
What does he mean? Shangguan Qingyue was quite puzzled in her heart, and the emperor's opening speech also brought her back to her senses.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the palace banquet I convened today is a reward for all of you who have worked hard day and night, and second, it is also because my three emperors have gathered, so you don't have to be formal today, okay, Father-in-law, let's have a banquet!"
"Yes......"
The crowd returned to their seats and sat down again. At this time, singing and dancing began on the stage, and the palace maids and eunuchs also shuttled back and forth with various dishes.
Although the banquet is lively, it is also popular, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that in fact, everyone knows that each other is just a perfunctory greeting.
It is true that singing and dancing are peaceful, but they are a common thing in the palace.
"Your Majesty, in order to show respect, the courtier Wei Xue Yaote has prepared a dance, and at the same time to help everyone here, I don't know if it's okay?"
The palace maid's singing and dancing came to an end, and off the stage, Wei Xueyao was full of coquettishness, and first stood up and recommended herself.
"Oh? Okay, since Miss Wei is interested, how can I not be reasonable? Qu Shaoyuan immediately nodded in agreement, "Please also ask Miss Wei to prepare first." ”
After a while, the sound of light and cheerful silk and bamboo sounded on the stage, several dancers slowly came out, the water sleeves were thrown away, and with the dancing of the sleeves, countless petals fluttered and fell in the air, one by one, as if holding a wisp of agarwood......
In the middle, a touch of red suddenly appeared, and at this time, the sound of the green flute started, and the breeze brought up the clothes, flying like swallows. And the flute became more and more urgent, and the faster her body turned, as if flying on the surface of the streamer, the whole person was like a flower through the fog, hazy and ethereal.
I have to admit that Wei Xueyao is really a dancing seedling. The people in the audience, especially the sons present, were fascinated by it. Of course, the proudest of them is her mother Lu Jinyu.
Over there, the dance on the stage had been danced, and there was thunderous applause from the audience, and Shangguan Qingyue lazily withdrew his gaze.
"Hehe, that's great! She deserves to be a talented woman! Seeing this, the emperor couldn't help but clap his palms in admiration.
"Wei Xueyao's dance can be said to be seamless, it's really rare to see each other in the world!" Queen Shen Yun'er looked at Wei Xueyao, who exuded the temperament of a noble woman, and smiled slightly.
"Then the queen will reward some knick-knacks." Qu Shaoyuan also smiled, with a kind face.
"Father-in-law Fu, then bring a pair of red crystal bracelets from the palace and give them to Miss Wei." The queen instructed the eunuchs on the side.
"Thank you for the reward!"
Wei Xueyao immediately knelt on the ground and thanked her. The result of today's performance is so satisfying to her! If you can get the queen's appreciation, won't you have a better chance?
"That, the courtiers just danced a song to cheer everyone up, but I don't know ......," she said, Wei Xueyao turned her head to Lan Cuiping, who was always indifferent, "I don't know, what kind of performance did Sister Cuiping prepare for the banquet?" ”
This was closed, and everyone in the audience turned their heads and ears. Who doesn't know that Lan Cuiping, the concubine of Lan Shilang's family, has no virtue and no talent? At the beginning, I invited no less than ten teaching gentlemen, but I was always angry. So day after day, I grew up in a blink of an eye, but I was still a straw bale.
Wei Xueyao made such a request on such an occasion, in the final analysis, she still wanted to make her ugly. Recalling the embarrassing incident about Lan Cuiping who couldn't perform anything at the palace banquet a year ago and cried his nose, everyone still remembers it vividly, but today, will it be embarrassed again?
And Lan Cuiping's parents, after hearing these discussions, their faces were red and white for a while.
In fact, what the people below are talking about, Shangguan Qingyue is very clear, she just sighs a little why such a bloody episode always happens? Of course, Wei Xueyao can't escape the ending of being slapped in the face.
I saw Lan groaning for a while, then slowly got up and said to Wei Xueyao: "Sister Xueyao really knows her sister's intentions, and she wanted to be ugly later, but since she said it now, then my sister will not let it go." ”
Immediately afterwards, he turned around and blessed the emperor again, "Your Majesty, the courtiers still need to use some pen and ink and easels......
