Chapter 363: Falling
Concubine Yue is also a valuable thing, but even compared to Jiang Xinyu's this, it is nothing, not to mention others, so Concubine Yue's gift has not made any waves. Concubine Yue is from the Queen Mother's mother's family, and she has annoyed the Queen Mother a little recently, so this gift is still her usual collection.
Concubine Li only presented a pair of embroidery pictures embroidered by herself. Although it is not precious, Concubine Yue and Jiang Xinyu also took a look at her, but the previous Concubine Li did not touch the spring water with her fingers, let alone embroidery.
Finally, it was the Queen Mother's gift.
Nangong Tian originally had no expectations for the Queen Mother's gift at the end of the period. So I still looked at the queen mother in the high position lightly.
"Originally, the mourning family was quite satisfied with this gift from the mourning family, but what I didn't expect was that the gifts given by the two princes had made the mourning family feel that they couldn't compare." The Queen Mother smiled and asked Mama Rong to send the gift she had prepared.
What everyone saw was a pale yellow ball, it should be said that Keju was right, and everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say about this gift, because Keju is generally not used as a gift for people.
The Queen Mother's expression has not changed. The balls are made of a yellowish liquid hemicolloid. This pale yellow thing is taken from the center of a century-old tree called Banyan Tree. It's also quite precious.
There were also a lot of discerning people present, who naturally recognized it.
"The Queen Mother's gift is really painstaking. Banyan is not such a casual tree. Not to mention, it takes a lot of time to collect such things and then make a kemari. ”
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Nangong Tian said, his eyes were indeed lost on the pale yellow juju. Keju, she and that person have always played with him when they were young.
"Don't you like it?" The Queen Mother didn't react when she saw Nangong Tian, and felt that it was wrong. Didn't he like to play Keju when he was younger, why doesn't he react at all now? Maybe Nangong Tian was hiding too deeply, so he didn't see Nangong Tian's faint loss of consciousness at all.
Nangong Tian quickly came back to his senses, "Naturally, I like everything the Queen Mother gives," even if she is really his real mother, he will not call himself a son in front of her.
"That'll do." The expectation in the queen mother's heart was broken again, and there was a throbbing pain in her heart, it had always been like this, she felt that she was almost used to it.
Everyone didn't speak, and they couldn't get involved in the royal affairs. So there is only one face-to-face.
It's just that such an embarrassing scene didn't last long, because the ladies who had left the scene early had already prepared their talents.
Jiang Xinyu listened to the faint sound of drums and sensed the beginning of this pa. Although she herself has involved a little bit of everything, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. But the headquarters is not as good as the women who have been trained since childhood.
I saw several women stepping on their three-inch golden lotus, getting closer and closer on the drum. From a distance, it was as if a few fairies had suddenly appeared among the flowers in the distance, and when the dance was close, everyone noticed that there were four young ladies stepping on the drum, and the drum was still moving. Because it's not just a few young ladies who dance here. There are also the dancers, who are responsible for moving the drum to a relocated position during the light dance. There are only four ladies on the drums, and the ladies are on the drum surface, and there is no sound when they dance gently. In addition, there were other people playing musical instruments who walked on both sides of the drum in fancy costumes, like an oncoming procession.
The costumes of the four of them are a little bold, and on such a cold day, they are still wearing slightly thin clothes, and their arms are faintly in the veil. The same goes for slender legs. Of course, this boldness is right now, if it is modern, it is quite strange to wear such clothes in winter, Jiang Xinyu feels that in addition to these, she admires these four young ladies, for an ethereal possibility. It's really a fight. The movements of the four of them still look neat, and they have practiced in private. It's just that in Jiang Xinyu's opinion, several people still don't have the quality of professional dancers. Although the posture of several people is soft enough, it is also enough to match the music and the upper beat. But several people are all vying for a position in the center. Because the four of them all know that if they stand in the middle, maybe the chances of being favored by the emperor will rise in a straight line.
Jiang Xinyu observed that in the past few years, there is still that young lady, Miss Lu, now she is in the left position, and she is also the most competitive person among these people, although it is obvious that it is not obvious on the surface, but she comes forward from time to time when she shouldn't come forward, or when she can show enough charm, and then automatically changes to the back when she changes the next action, in this way, her little things are even more difficult to be discovered. Of course, the above is all made up by Jiang Xinyu after observing the expressions of several people. She thinks it's nine times out of ten.
Miss Lu came so unruly, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the other three young ladies. In the previous design, several of them were able to go to the front when they were beautiful, but now they are all the most ordinary times, except for Miss Lu. This makes them very anxious. After a short time of glancing at each other, the three of them suddenly formed an alliance.
As a result, the dance, which was originally thinking about Miss Lu's desired direction, suddenly changed, and the other three young ladies began to take a big step forward in the dance class when Miss Lu was still scratching her head in front of her. So, Miss Lu, who had no drum face in front of her, suddenly fell to the ground eating. And when the clothes are flying. Bai Huahua's thighs are exposed all the way to the base of her thighs. The men present were basically dazzled. His eyes widened. The women present suddenly had no good impression of this young lady, and were straight and sarcastic. The three young ladies even shouted in their hearts that Miss Lu was shameless. I knew that the clothes on their bodies were basically the same in order to look good. As everyone's girlfriends, they naturally want to go away. Therefore, they are lined on the inside of the skirt, not only to protect against the cold, but also because although the lining does not look obvious, it will never expose them to such intimate things as thighs in the eyes of everyone. That's what they thought about before, and they didn't think it was anything. It's just a wrestling.
But who knew that Miss Lu was so scheming, so she directly went to the inner lining. When dancing, it can be more seductive, and now the thighs are exposed. Shame on me and my grandmother's house.
As soon as Miss Lu fell, she knew that she was unlucky, and she was beaten by the three sluts in the back. Now I've fallen so hard and I'm losing my life. I don't even want to get up. Although there were blankets on the floor, she didn't feel any pain at all, but she still felt that her face was hot. It's not like she doesn't want to do anything, the cool swishing sensation coming from her thighs makes her only be able to lower her head and quickly put her legs under the clothes to cover them.
Such a humiliating thing happened. The Queen Mother's face darkened. How could this woman be so shameless? actually directly exposed his thighs, still in front of so many men. It was a shame that she wanted to choose a few more considerate people for Nangong Tian among so many ladies. I didn't expect that there would be such a person who did such a thing in order to attract the emperor's attention.
That's right, in the eyes of the Queen Mother. Miss Lu: This is not an accident at all, it is not that she accidentally fell off the drum face. And it was premeditated. She knew a lot about this kind of woman's skills. Don't you just want to attract the emperor with your body in front of the emperor first? And then try to climb up in the palace.
"Humph! Such a woman. Don't hurry up and someone take her down. ”
The Queen Mother said angrily to the grandmother beside her. Immediately, someone listened to the order and walked in front of Miss Landing.
Miss Lu can't be a shrunken turtle anymore.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother spares her life, the courtiers didn't mean it, it was those three people who deliberately pretended to be courtiers, and the courtiers would be so embarrassed." Miss Lu raised her head, and two lines of tears had already flowed down the corners of her eyes, on her face decorated with layers of powder. Leaving a very visible trace. The voice is still the same as ever. But there was still obvious panic.
"You know it's embarrassing! Hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy from the emperor and the queen mother. This was said by Miss Lu's mother, and Mrs. Lu was also flustered, and she didn't know what she had found. How did things turn out the way they are? Shouldn't his daughter be chosen by the emperor? And then ascended all the way in the palace. Now this woman who fell to the ground with a terrible face was really her own daughter? Now the adults of her family did not come because of illness, so there is no way to let the master of her family intercede, only she has to figure out a way by herself.
"Please spare the emperor! The Queen Mother spares her life! Miss Lu's voice was crying, and she looked at Nangong Tian pitifully. The makeup on his face was wet with tears and a mess.
Nangong Tian frowned, how could someone be so mischievous whenever there was a big party. Can't you just be quiet and not make a fuss?
And this woman is so ugly. What are you doing here?
"Take it down!"
"Your Majesty! Don't. The daughter of the courtier's really didn't mean it, she really just fell down after being accidentally pushed by those young ladies. ”
A few young ladies are not followed. It's obviously her Miss Lu who is unkind first. If they acquiesced to Mrs. Lu's words, wouldn't it mean that they really knocked Miss Lu down. Although this is true, it must not be said so by Mrs. Lu.
