The Queen Mother smiled and didn't smile: "It's rare to be on par with Si Yin's piano skills." ”

Seeing that Luoxia easily won the praise of the Queen Mother, where were they willing to give up, missing such an excellent opportunity to show their faces, and rushed forward, wanting to show their strengths.

Na Siyin was a little embarrassed, and glanced at the Queen Mother for help. Yuehua immediately seized the opportunity and nodded: "Don't worry, everyone, if you are impetuous, how can you play a tactful sound?" The Queen Mother came here today to enjoy everyone's string music, and everyone showed their skills to the fullest. ”

As soon as these words came out, how did the Queen Mother say something to refute? A noble girl preemptively held the Jiaowei Qin in her arms, and couldn't wait to tune and test the strings and start playing. The flowers and plants naturally lived up to expectations, swaying and dancing.

This confirmed everyone's conjecture and began to whisper.

Mo Guhan pursed a smile at the corner of his lips, leaned over slightly towards Yuehua, and said in a low voice: "Does the queen want to catch all these noble girls and enrich them all into my harem?" ”

"If the emperor likes it all, it's okay."

Mo Guhan snorted coldly: "The queen is generous." ”

Yuehua pursed her lips and smiled, sat upright, and took the opportunity to admire: "The creation of the gods is so magical, there are plants and trees in the world that smell music and dance. And who said that plants and trees are merciless? ”

Someone among the noble ladies had the courage to stand up: "The little girl is from Dali, Su Wen has two strange grass plants, Su likes to be warm, born in the deep forest, one is said to be shy, as long as the leaves are touched, they will automatically roll up, and the other is called Lover's grass, it is said that it can dance with music, but I have heard of it, and I have not seen it with my own eyes, is this grass a lover's grass?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone no longer paid attention to the music of the strings, but looked at the two pots of grass together, and then looked at Concubine Ling, who was silent and did not dare to say more.

Now that the cold winter has just passed, although spring has begun, it is not the environment for this grass to grow. suddenly appeared in Concubine Ling's hall today, and was used by Si Yin to make a fuss, and the reason is obvious.

Mo Guhan's face tightened, snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "There is more than enough ingenuity, but the skill is insufficient, but Er'er." ”

His words were merciless, ridiculing these nobles for all their thoughts on intrigue, and none of them were really obsessed with vocal music.

Concubine Ling saw that a banquet she had painstakingly planned was disrupted by Yuehua, and she lost face in front of the emperor again, so she was resentful and angry, and now she was exposed by a little girl, and she was angry, but she didn't dare to show it in front of Mo Guhan, and smiled awkwardly.

"You girl is well-informed, and this palace is lonely and unheard, but I have never heard of it."

There was blame in the conversation, and the noble girl suddenly saved herself from talking too much and shrunk her neck: "It's just a rumor, not necessarily, it's the little girl who is lying for a while." ”

The Queen Mother's face was even more unbearable, and she stood up straight: "The mourning family is tired, go back to the palace first, and you can take care of the excitement yourself." ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves away with a calm face.

Yuehua confronted the Queen Mother head-on for the first time, disobeyed her will, and won, but she felt refreshed, and her mood was surprisingly good, so she barely suppressed her excitement in front of Mo Guhan, and bowed down.

As soon as she got out of the Jiaofang Palace, she couldn't help it anymore, and curled the corners of her lips slightly, a little carried away, and it was rare to show a brilliant appearance.

Fighting with the sky, it is endless fun, and fighting with Ling Guifei is also infinite fun!

"The queen seems to be in a good mood for ruining my good deeds?"

After she left the Jiaofang Palace, Mo Guhan suddenly felt bored, followed out, and quietly followed behind her, seeing her smug eyebrows fluttering, Zhengse teased.

Yuehua was startled, turned around, and saw that he was serious, not like a joke, and immediately put a smug look on his face: "Isn't this what the emperor wants?" If Yuehua realized the wrong holy will, she would make up for it, turn back to the Jiaofang Palace, and send them to the Qianqing Palace after dressing up beautifully. ”

There was a faint hint of anger on Mo Guhan's face: "The queen is really virtuous." ”

Yuehua pretended not to hear his sarcasm: "The emperor has won the award." You also said that the affairs of the harem should be in full charge of Yuehua, and Yuehua naturally did not dare to live up to expectations. ”

Mo Guhan's tense face finally couldn't help but bloom with a hint of playfulness: "Did the queen perceive the holy will and disrupt this banquet, or did she come out of her heart and didn't want them to enter the palace to accompany her?" ”

Yuehua didn't answer and asked: "Which one does the emperor like?" ”

Mo Guhan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed clearly: "The emperor is really cunning. ”

Yuehua continued to greet her: "The concubine is just cautiously trying to please the emperor." ”

"Don't you feel that the queen is going against her heart when she says such duplicitous words?" Mo Guhan suddenly smiled, and said seriously.

Yuehua is still respectful: "The emperor is the sky, the mountains are uplifted, and Yuehua is the words of the heart." ”

"Heartfelt words? Chu Yuehua, if you are really like others, you only have me in your heart, how can you be so cold to me? You've been hiding from me for the past few days, why? Do I really make you that scared? ”

Mo Guhan suddenly asked out loud.

Yuehua's breath was stagnant, he only felt full of grievances, but he couldn't say a word, it turned out that he had been sullen for several days, and he didn't know why he got up at all, let alone change it.

Her silent and detached gaze made Mo Guhan more and more annoyed, almost angry: "I have offended the Queen Mother and Concubine Ling for you today, and have rejected so many courteous women and the family behind them, are you still not satisfied?" Is it difficult for me to do so much and not get you a word of sincerity? ”

Yuehua was stunned for a while, and he didn't recall the meaning of Mo Guhan for a long time, and when he finally understood the thoughts contained in it, he had already brushed his sleeves away angrily. In a hurry, the figure disappeared in an instant, but it was more like a hasty escape.

Yuehua was still stunned in place, and after a while, she finally couldn't help the corners of her lips slightly, and a smile rippled from the bottom of her heart.

For me? Really?

During the Midyear Festival, there is a custom of dialing lamps and putting lanterns in the palace, especially dialing lamps, which is a very sacred thing, and the emperor and harem concubines must participate.

Originally, the lantern was handed down, it was to burn the lamp to worship the Buddha, the Chang'an Dynasty has always believed in Buddhism, so every year in addition to the lantern on the Shangyuan Festival, the lantern must be dialed. Fourteen people's lamps, fifteen magic lamps, sixteen ghost lamps, put in the palace for three days, canals, desks, doors and windows, the location is exquisite.

Yuehua was bored, and she missed the world outside the Forbidden City even more. Every year, the Midyear Festival is the day she looked forward to the most when she was a child. The whole capital is unprecedentedly prosperous, with fire trees and silver flowers, sleepless all night, and even the beggars begging in the cold wind in the streets and alleys are smiling because of the alms of those rich families who are very kind.

When she was in the Hou Mansion, the old lady in the middle of the festival gathered together to worship the ancestors, and the Lian family hindered the situation, and she would be kind enough to let her wear a new dress, and then go out to see the lights with the daughters of the Chang family.

Those noble ladies of the Chang family have their eyes on the top of their heads, and Chang Lingyan can't see them in their eyes, let alone her? She naturally disdained to flatter them like Chang Lingluo, and walked behind alone with Xiangshen, enjoying the scenery and the moon comfortably.

The palace began to buy Zhang Luo a few days in advance, and the subordinates did everything possible to find out the master's thoughts, and the masters secretly competed, and they were in full swing, hollowing out the eclectic palace lamps made by ingenuity, and hanging them high outside their palaces, hoping to attract the attention of Mo Guhan and gain favor.

As soon as the afterglow of the sun had fallen, and not a single drop of thick ink had fallen in the Forbidden City, the jasper plate that was vigorously rising in the east could not wait to envelop the Forbidden City in a layer of hazy moonlight.

The lanterns are lit up one after another, and the lanterns, shadow lanterns, landscape lanterns, octagonal exquisite lanterns, and glazed lamps are in various forms, blooming with different light and shadow.

The entire Forbidden City is as bright as day, but it is full of shadows, illusory and unreal.

The Queen Mother sent a palace person to call Yuehua, she couldn't refuse, put on a water shadow sparkling cloak, and sank out of Qingqiu Palace with incense.

As soon as you get out of the palace, the cloak is covered with the shadow of the moon, and there is a sparkling white scene, such as the rippling moonlight, the hem of the cloak is embroidered with Su embroidery needles and two long-legged cranes leisurely foraging by the riverside, fluttering with the night breeze, and the elegant steps of the moonlight, vividly.

Xiang Shen pointed to the palace lamps on both sides of the road, and shouted in a fuss: "The craftsmen in this palace are getting more and more interesting, this year is the New Year's Eve of the Rabbit God King, so there is no need to be full of rabbits, right?" ”

Yuehua was not in the mood to enjoy the lanterns, and she didn't raise her head: "The flowers are similar every year, and the flowers are different every year, and they are like this every year, where is there anything new?" ”

"There are new ideas, these rabbits are not as simple and cute as usual, but they are majestic, and they have all kinds of appearances. is still riding a gourd, or a tiger, Niangniang, some of them look like the rabbit we invited when we were children! ”

Xiang Shen chattered, looking at Yuehua's face secretly.

Yuehua couldn't help but look up, and couldn't help but be stunned, the Qingqiu Palace around her, as well as along the road, were all kinds of rabbits, flower jackets and tiger hats, majestic.

"Xiangshen, is there a rabbit lantern in our entire palace?" Yuehua asked blankly.

Xiangshen nodded: "All the lanterns arranged by the Internal Affairs Office this year are Rabbit Masters - I heard that they were specially ordered by Long Live Lord." ”

What is he?

Yuehua's heart was full of flavors for a while, a little sour, a little sweet, and her heart fluctuated, which was difficult to suppress. She suddenly became interested in appreciating the lanterns, and felt that not only the rabbit lanterns raised high were fascinating, but even the scenes and objects in this cold night became very different.

His feet were much lighter for no reason, and the water on his cloak rippled, and he jumped happily.

Concubine Ling and the others had already arrived at the Ruian Palace in advance, and did not enter the main hall, but were holding the stove at the door and pointing to the lights everywhere, and they were excited. Mo Guhan was surrounded by several people, his expression was indifferent, and the corners of his lips were slightly smiling, obviously in a good mood.

Yuehua and Xiangshen walked over, and Ya Concubine and Lan Cairen were about to salute, but they were stopped by Yuehua: "Today's festival, everyone is free to be casual, no need to be polite." ”

Peeking at Mo Guhan, he looked away, a smile on the corner of his mouth had disappeared without a trace, and his face was tense, like a frozen stone.

is still such an awkward character, who has been carefully coaxed since childhood, and he can't easily pull off his face.
