Chapter 513: Fighting Together (Part II)
As soon as Shen Ningshuang's words fell, everyone pressed the anxiety in their hearts, and more or less gloating smiles in their hearts. Shen Ningshuang's talent is famous in Yuhan, and some people once praised her as the most outstanding talented woman in Beijing, this name is not casual, but relied on her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting talent to break out step by step, Mu Qingya must not have been taught by any system when she thinks about it, this time it should be a shame to go home, right?
Mu Qingya looked at Shen Ningshuang with a flat look, and it was obvious that she was aware of the thoughts of the people around her, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and said in an indifferent tone: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that a few years after I left Yuhan, Yuhan's atmosphere would become so big, and the daughter of a courtier would openly ask me for advice, which makes people feel funny." ”
"Hehe, I haven't heard of it." Duanmu Ling Yule's cooperation.
Shen Ningshuang, who was originally arrogant and proud in her heart, turned slightly pale when she heard this, although her father was the prime minister of Zuo, but she did not have any title, and she was not qualified to ask for advice in front of Mu Qingya, and turned her head to see Duanmu Lingyu's face with a smile, and the hesitation in her heart dissipated: "Please forgive the emperor and the county lord, Ning Shuang's own status is low, and he naturally does not have this qualification to ask the county lord for advice, but seeing that today is the emperor's birthday, the county lord must have prepared a program for the emperor, I thought that the county lord might want to have a chance to show it. ”
Shen Ningshuang raised her head, just in time for Shang Mu Qingya's smiling look, and suddenly chuckled in her heart, it's over, she said the wrong thing.
"Hehe, it's funny, I didn't expect that I wanted to give a gift to the emperor and ask others to create an opportunity, although I can't use it, but I also thank you for your kindness." He said thanks, but the mockery in his words was understandable to everyone.
Shen Ningshuang only felt that her face was hot, and she secretly pinched her palms to calm herself, she couldn't panic, she must show her best self in front of the emperor: "The county lord forgives me, Ningshuang is really stupid and stupid, and her speech is too inappropriate, please don't blame the county lord." ”
Mu Qingya's heart slightly hooked the corners of her lips, this Shen Ningshuang is smart, she competes with herself in talent, if she wins, she will lose her identity in vain, as a future queen, I have never heard of any queen who will behave like this in public, and if she loses, then it will be even more embarrassing, even her talent can't compare to others, what qualifications does she have to be qualified for the position of queen?
"Naturally, I can't blame you, seeing you say this, you must be an outstanding piano player, since this is the case, then you will perform to let the county lord listen to it, and let the emperor judge and judge."
Shen Ningshuang was very unwilling to let Mu Qingya agree to compete with herself, but when she saw Duanmu Lingyu noticing her, she was slightly comforted in her heart, and saluted respectfully and said, "Please make the emperor axe." ”
Duanmu Lingyu, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly said loudly: "It seems that I haven't been back for a long time, and I don't feel used to it." ”
Although he didn't say what he wasn't used to, how could everyone not guess in their hearts. They were a little deflated for a while, they just came up with a thousand, ten thousand tricks, and they had no choice but to let the emperor help Mu Qingya.
Shen Ningshuang forcibly suppressed the jealousy in her heart, calmed down, sat behind the guqin raised by the palace people, her fingers seemed to pluck the strings at random, and her voice was pleasant.
I saw her sitting upright, her slender fingers pressing the strings, slowly rubbing, with a trace of gentle and flowing warm color in her eyes, adding a little softness and hazy beauty under the cover of the candles in the hall. Suddenly, the sound of the piano sounded suddenly, one moment like rushing water, one moment like a towering mountain range, one moment like a cold winter dry night, one moment like the dawn and morning star, the sound of the piano faintly with a burst of cool and cold meaning made everyone feel the anxiety in their hearts calmed down...... Involuntarily follow and go deep into it.
After a while, the sound of the piano fell suddenly, but the aftersound echoed in the hall, circling and circling, slowly precipitating, sinking to the deepest part, and still no one made a sound. Everyone seemed to be immersed in the sound of the piano, and it was a long time before someone took the lead in praising it.
"It's really around the beam for three days, and the voice is endless."
"Yes, this song should only be heard a few times in heaven and on earth, and it is really wonderful, wonderful."
Shen Ningshuang got up, her delicate and delicate horse-faced skirt crossed a graceful arc, and bowed to Duanmu Lingyu: "The courtiers are ugly." ”
Duanmu Lingyu hooked the corners of his lips, just talking about the sound of the piano is indeed extremely good, it can be said to be the top grade, but seeing her pair of eyes and the deep upward climb in it, he felt that the sound of the piano was tasteless.
Seeing that Duanmu Lingyu didn't mean to speak, Shen Ningshuang shook her lips, feeling angry and depressed in her heart, she looked at it and said, "I don't know what the county lord thinks?" ”
Mu Qingya chuckled, and the coldness in her eyes was even worse: "You are funny, you just said that you were ugly in front of the emperor, but now you come to ask me how I feel, you say, did you lie in front of the emperor, or do you want the county lord to say, how ugly are you playing?" She didn't want to let a woman lose face and lose her heart in front of everyone, but this Shen Ningshuang was too ignorant, since she was in a hurry to be embarrassed, there was no need to save face for her.
Not only Shen Ningshuang was stunned, but even the civil and military officials in the hall were stunned, they never expected Mu Qingya to say this, but although what she said made sense, and made Shen Ningshuang embarrassed, it was too petty. Just when everyone was faintly dissatisfied in their hearts, Mu Qingya's next words once again made them not know how to react.
"Although you are duplicitous, since you have asked me, I will naturally not hesitate to give you a lesson or two. The song you played just now is the most famous "Spring Dawn in the Snow Mountain" of the previous dynasty, the song is well chosen, and the playing is also very skillful, but you still played a few notes, and at the beginning of the second part, the two notes should fall on the two notes of Zheng Yu, you are wrong. Not to mention the mistakes in playing, just as far as this piece is concerned, "Spring Dawn in the Snow Mountain" was composed by the poet of the previous dynasty when he saw the red plum in the snowstorm when he passed through Qilian, although there is the meaning of wind and snow destruction, but it is more of joy and unyielding, and you in order to cater to the atmosphere of today's banquet, you have distorted the meaning of it, it's a pity. ”
Everyone looked at each other, they had also heard this song, but what Mu Qingya said was good, what this song wanted to express was that Hongmei's Aoxue was temporarily not afraid of the cold, and Shen Ningshuang's performance lacked a little aura, but a little more ingenuity, which destroyed the atmosphere in it. Thinking about it like this, I couldn't help but lose most of my contempt for Mu Qingya in my heart, such a woman who is the head of the Tao will definitely not know anything about piano skills, but she doesn't want to perform in front of everyone and lose her identity, after all, she is the future queen!
Shen Ningshuang's face was really pale this time, and if she looked carefully, her lips were still trembling: "The county lord said that he must be very proficient in the piano art, I don't know ......."
Mu Qingya smiled: "You are wrong, I am not very proficient in piano skills, I am best at embroidery, when the emperor was there, but I was rewarded with a perfect name, and I wrote these four words by hand, what, do you want to see?" ”
Duanmu Lingyu lowered his eyes and snorted coldly: "Lord Shen, your daughter is so courageous." ”
Many old ministers felt chills in their hearts, how could they forget that this county lord was favored by the first emperor when he was twelve years old, but it was not something they could afford to provoke.
Shen Li hurriedly came out and knelt on the ground with a thud: "Please forgive the emperor, Weichen has no way to teach, please punish the emperor." Frost, don't apologize to the emperor soon. ”
Duanmu Lingyu sneered: "Even if she is an apology, she should not apologize to me." ”
A layer of cold sweat appeared on Shen Li's forehead, and he shouted at Shen Ningshuang who was stunned in place again: "Evil obstacles, why don't you apologize to Lord Mu soon?" ”
Shen Ningshuang reacted suddenly, and knelt down with a plop: "The courtiers have no form, they collided with the emperor and the county lord Mu, and asked the emperor and the county to forgive their sins." ”
Mu Qingya smiled, this Shen Ningshuang is really a stubborn character, no wonder, her father is in a high position, she is naturally pampered and raised, and it is true that she is arrogant, but she is too conceited, and it is no wonder that she will be used as a gun by others. Thinking about it, those ladies of the family chewed the root of their tongues in front of her.
"Okay, today is the emperor's birthday banquet, you can step down."
Just when everyone felt pity in their hearts, two guards suddenly came over with two messengers holding two big boxes, and reported to Duanmu Ling Yuyu: "Back to the emperor, this is a birthday gift sent by Mo Junliang, the new emperor of Canglan. ”
Duanmu Lingyu frowned, the look of watching the play faded in his eyes, and he waved his hand to signal Wu Ping to take the gift. The messenger on the left bowed down again: "Back to His Majesty Emperor Yuhan, the emperor has instructed before he comes, the gift in this box is specially given to the county lord Mu, in order to thank the county lord for offering a prescription to save the thousands of people from the plague, and also to congratulate the county lord on becoming the queen of Yuhan." ”
Le Qi walked down the steps and wanted to take the box, but the messenger flashed slightly, and then opened the lid of the box, and a jewel flashed, only to see that in the box covered with flowing water and satin, there was a gorgeous phoenix crown, especially the top of the phoenix crown, inlaid with a huge and smooth bead, faintly exuding colorful light under the illumination of the lamp, which made people unexpected.
Mu Qingya's expression was solemn, and the emotions in her heart gradually became cold, Mo Junyan was really calculating!
"Your Majesty, Mu Qingya actually offered medicine for other countries, and asked the emperors of other countries to send phoenix crowns, I just don't know what etiquette and morality are, such a woman is not worthy of being my Yuhan's mother of the country."
