The sound of silk and bamboo in the Changle Palace, after a dance, the queen on the jade seat sighed.

The dancers immediately fell to their knees. There was silence in the hall for a while.

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "What's wrong with the queen, why are you sighing?" ”

"The singing and dancing in this palace, although the grandeur is just too rigid, there are always so few, and the palace is tired of watching it. I wonder if the emperor can get tired of watching it? ”

When the emperor heard this, he smiled: "It turned out to be for this, too, the dancing girls in the palace danced back and forth, all of them are these songs, I am tired of watching them, let them rearrange a few tomorrow." ”

"What are you waiting for tomorrow?" Wang Guifei covered her mouth and chuckled: "The women in this palace are all daughters of famous families, and their talents are not bad, why don't you let them perform for us?" ”

Bai Jingxuan felt Liu Xinzi's hand tremble in his palm.

I saw the emperor say, "This idea is fresh." Just as you say. ”

There were not many women present, except for a few princesses and princesses, only Liu Xinzi was left.

Sure enough, I heard the kind voice of the queen mother: "Liu Xinzi, you are the daughter of the general, and this palace can hear you singing and dancing and pipa, why don't you play a song for everyone first?" ”

Liu Xinzi was stunned on the spot.

Back then, her throat was swallowed and her tendons were broken. Even if he was healed by Bai Jingxuan, his voice could no longer sing, and his hands were even weaker, so he could only barely prick needles, how could he still dance and sing?

She got up and knelt on the ground: "The queen praises the courtiers...... Courtiers don't know that. ”

Seeing her crampedness, Qu Ninghao's eyes slowly became solemn.

The queen's brows furrowed: "Could it be that the rumors in Beijing are false?" Or do you not want to? ”

Liu Xinzi didn't dare to raise her head: "Queen Mother, the courtiers have eaten something injured, her voice can no longer sing, her hands have also been injured, and this dance has not been able to dance for a long time." ”

After speaking, she lay on the ground, not daring to look up.

There was silence around her, and she didn't have to look up to know the disdain in everyone's eyes, but what she didn't know was that a gaze stared at her for a long, long time.

"Heh, no matter the singing and dancing skills, don't you know anything?" Wang Guifei opened her mouth lightly, with a hint of mockery: "I have always been knowledgeable and proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I don't know how General Liu trained you at home?" ”

"It's the courtiers who are stupid, it's not about their father's business, please ask the emperor, the queen, and all the ladies to forgive me."

"That's a disappointment." The queen sighed: "Although it is said that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, but if you want to accompany the children of the royal family, in addition to outstanding virtue, you must also be proficient in talent." It's very inappropriate for you to follow the eighth child like this. ”

It turns out that all this was said for the sake of this sentence.

Bai Jingshuo's eyes flickered, and just as he was about to stand up, he saw Liu Xinzi suddenly straighten up, and said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, queen, ladies and gentlemen." Xin Zi didn't dare to make a mistake in this Changle Hall today. The courtiers believe that although today is the birthday of the fourteenth prince, they should not sing and dance. ”

"Oh, why?" The queen looked at her coldly and spoke.

"Queen Mother, a few days ago, Xiqiu violated our border, and the soldiers were killed and injured, and the recent flooding of the Yellow River has displaced the people for a while. Now it is an eventful autumn, the soldiers and the people are in dire straits, and we are singing and dancing here, and the courtiers are really terrified! ”

She knelt down again after she finished speaking seriously: "The courtier's words have transgressed, and I hope that the emperor and the queen will forgive her sins!" ”

What she said was reasonable, and the queen couldn't refute it for a while.

Qu Ninghao squinted, and there was a glint of approval in his eyes.

Bai Jingxuan smiled and sat down, his little Zi'er was getting more and more powerful, so powerful that he could already take charge on his own.
