Chapter 101: The arrogant princess is punished
The most powerful eunuch beside Emperor Lixia was holding a tray with all the bets made by the concubines and princesses, and the disparity was so great that it was really jaw-dropping.
Gambling Ling Ruoyi won much higher than the Ice Princess, and the one who bought the Ice Princess won was the princess born to several low-level concubines who usually made good friends, except for his mother Jade Concubine.
In addition to using their own jade fan and flute to make bets, Xia Liyan and the King of Thailand also added an additional bet of 200,000 taels, even Emperor Lixia was itchy and wanted to gamble, but after seeing Ling Ruoyi's performance, he also knew that this daughter-in-law's ability was definitely above his daughter, but if even he didn't support his daughter, wouldn't that mean that he was discouraged? However, he also wants to win, although it is said that the whole world is not the king's land, but who has a grudge against money.
If it weren't for her husband and wife, the queen would have already seen the emperor's thoughts, and said softly with a smile: "Your Majesty, why don't we gamble too?" ”
"Oh? The queen is also interested? Emperor Lixia asked with a smile.
"Yes, everyone has made bets, it's rare to be so lively, we might as well have fun with everyone, you said, Emperor?"
"So who is the queen going to bet on?"
"The concubine will bet on the ice princess to win, and I will definitely protect my own daughter. So who will win the emperor's bet? ”
"Since the queen bet on ice and snow, then I bet on the crown princess to win, and who will win after all, let's wait and see."
"Okay, the concubine can also win some fat powder silver."
"If the queen needs fat powder and silver, I will give it to you."
"That's good, in the future, if the concubines are short of fat powder and silver, they will ask the emperor, and the emperor will not be allowed to repay the debts at that time."
"Don't worry, Queen, I won't pay my debts."
This exchange between the emperor and the queen, Ling Ruoxuan saw it all in his eyes, if he didn't really love each other, I'm afraid he wouldn't think about each other so much.
"The father and the queen mother also participate in the bet, and at that moment, they must be judged fairly, and they cannot be protected." Xia Liyan said with a smile.
"Of course, I am the emperor, and I will definitely fairly decide who wins and who loses, so let's start the competition." The emperor gave an order, and the competition officially began.
"Father, Erchen thinks that if the dance between me and the imperial sister-in-law is different, everyone can't judge who dances well and who doesn't dance well, so Erchen asks to dance a dance at the same time as the imperial sister-in-law."
Emperor Lixia pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke, "Okay, I agree. Ruoyi, you have to show your true skills, you don't need to hide them, I want to see your real skills. ”
"It's the father, and the son obeys the order." Ling Ruoyi said slightly.
The ice princess glanced at Ling Ruoyi coldly, and felt unhappy in her heart, obviously she was the princess of gold and jade, she was just the daughter of a princess, a princess who was kissed, why did so many people help her. Today, she Bingxue will definitely make Ling Ruoyi embarrassed in front of everyone, otherwise the princess of Lixia Kingdom will not be compared, and what face will she have in the future.
"Sister-in-law, let's do the dance, just like my father said, show your real skills, don't say that you haven't done your best in the end."
"Okay, then please ask the princess to come up with the question, what kind of dance did you dance today?" Ling Ruoyi looked like she was light and breezy, and Bing Xue was even more annoyed when she saw it, why did she always look indifferent, wasn't she afraid of losing and being embarrassed?
"Long-sleeved dance, I don't know if the imperial sister-in-law dares to compare?"
"Dare, please wait a while, if you go down to change your clothes, you will return immediately."
"Father, the ministers there have also gone down to change their clothes." After that, he stepped forward to catch up with Ling Ruohui and pinched Ling Ruoxi's arm fiercely.
How can these small actions escape the eyes of Xia Liyan and the King of Thailand, the two waited quietly for them to come back, while waiting for the two to change their clothes, the King of Thailand talked about living in the Qiyun Temple in the country of Yunshang, and faintly heard a very nice piano sound on a rainy night, which is still unforgettable. Naturally, it was impossible for him to know that it was Ling Ruoyi who was playing the piano in the temple that day.
"Looking at Yi Jie's expression, it shouldn't be that he fell in love with the woman who played the piano." Xia Liyan quipped.
"Although I didn't see the person who played the piano, the younger brother thought that the person who could play such a delicate tune must also be a vulgar woman, and someone used the flute to harmonize that day, just like it, I'm afraid that he is already married."
"If that woman didn't get married, wouldn't it be a pity for Yi Jie to give up like this?"
"But how can you find it in the vast sea of people."
"If Yi Jie has a heart, he will definitely be able to find it, write a letter to Mo Kite for his brother at night, and ask her husband to help find it, Mo Kite's husband is now the king of Anjun in Yunshang Kingdom, his father is Xiangye, and your sister-in-law is a mother and sister-in-law, he will definitely help."
"Besides, I don't want that woman to deliberately hide because of my abruptness, I believe that if I have a fate, I will definitely meet her again."
"You."
While talking, the two had finished changing their clothes, the Ice Princess chose a gorgeous peach-colored long-sleeved dress, while Ling Ruoyi chose a light blue dress, the two became a stark contrast, one was extremely charming, and the other was elegant.
The music sounded melodiously, the two danced at the same time, lightly stretched their long sleeves, like a few rainbows crossing, with the sudden turn of the music, the two of them took their right feet as the axis and began to rotate in place, and then, the two of them threw out their long sleeves again, and Bing Xue took the opportunity to step on Ling Ruoyi's long sleeves, and gave Bingying on the seat a look.
When Ling Ruoyi saw it, Bing Xue must have done it on purpose, and she also noticed the eye contact between the two sisters, and secretly thought in her heart, I was afraid that this Bingying was going to cheat.
Suddenly, as expected, a few crystal round jade beads rolled down to the place where they danced, if one accidentally stepped on it, it would definitely fall, these sisters are really sinister.
Ling Ruohui pulled out his long sleeves hard, and hit it hard again, which happened to hit Bing Xue's lower abdomen, Bing Xue was in pain, bent down slightly, Ling Ruohui hit out with long sleeves again, and knocked down the peony between the ice and snow hair. Bing Xue was so angry that he didn't notice his feet, and stepped on the jade bead with one foot, and then, as everyone expected, Bing Xue leaned back and fell heavily to the ground.
"Ling Ruoxi, you are cheating." The Ice Princess villain sued first.
"Bing Xue, if you are willing to gamble and lose, how can you accuse the imperial sister-in-law of lying at will?" The King of Thailand spoke slowly.
"It's her trick, otherwise how would I step on the jade bead and fall." The Ice Princess said with a sense of urgency.
"Oh? Jade beads? How do you know it's a jade bead and not another bead? The King of Thailand seized the loophole in Bingxue's speech and joked.
"This ......," Bing Xue was momentarily speechless when asked.
Xia Liyan got up slowly, picked up a jade bead on the ground and looked at it carefully, Bingying saw it, she immediately panicked, her little hands were clenched tightly in her sleeves, and she didn't dare to look directly at Xia Liyan.
"This jade bead, if this palace remembers correctly, it should be Bingying's string of Lingxiao beads." Xia Liyan said lightly.
"Yes, it is Ling Xiaozhu, and this string of Ling Xiaozhu was given to her by her father during Bingying's coming-of-age ceremony."
Emperor Lixia's face was gloomy like the bottom of the pot at this time, and he couldn't imagine that his daughter was so unsuccessful, in order to win, he used all kinds of insidious means, which really made his face as an emperor dull.
"Bingying." Emperor Lixia snapped.
Hearing this, Bingying hurriedly knelt on the ground and said timidly: "Father, the son-in-law is ......, the son-in-law didn't mean it, he was careless......"
"Dare to quibble, you tell me clearly why this good string of beads is broken? They also rolled to the place where they danced. ”
"It's because of ......, because of ......" Bing Yingmei glanced at the ice and snow that was still on the ground and continued: "It's my sister, it's my sister who made me do this." ”
"Bingying, you are talking nonsense, it is obviously yours who said that you want to help me, and after you ask to help me win, you will give you the Zixiao jade fan of the crown prince's brother. How can you put all the blame on me. ”
"Sister, did you want me to help you in the first place, just admit it, your father won't punish you heavily, why do you drag my sister into the water."
Ling Ruoyi couldn't help but sneer, is this the royal sisterhood? Thinking of Yunfei born to his own mother, he has supported each other for many years, sharing honor and disgrace, this should be family affection, and King Qi and Emperor Yuchen are also born to the same mother, King Qi can fight on the battlefield for his brother, which is also royal affection, but why the two princesses of Lixia Kingdom, who are sisters of the same mother, are busy clearing up their involvement when they encounter trouble, so it seems that the royal family has no family affection, and some only have to cheat or take advantage of.
"Bingying, you ......" Bing Xue Qi turned over and got up from the ground, regardless of the occasion, he pounced directly on Bingying, and the two scuffled together.
Emperor Lixia, who was seated, was even more angry when he saw it, what is this, it's just a shame, how can someone raise a daughter so well, with a dusty and talented temperament, and she is as beautiful as a fairy, although her daughter is a princess, although she is also beautiful, but this temperament is a big difference from the style. If it weren't for the title of this princess, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find a good in-law.
Thinking about this, Emperor Lixia couldn't help sighing, helplessly looked at the two daughters who didn't plan to stop, and finally couldn't hold it back, and shouted loudly: "Stop it, what do you look like."
"Father, the emperor......" the two princesses said in unison. The expressions were really aggrieved, as if they were the victims.
"Bing Xue, as your sister, you don't take responsibility for making mistakes, and you drag your sister into the water, it's really infuriating."
"That's it, father, sister, she always bullies me." Bingying pouted.
"You also shut up for me, you are sisters, not only do you not help each other, but tear each other down, I now punish the two of you for two months, and you are grounded in the palace to copy the scriptures well, if you still don't repent, I will beat you board."
"Father's ......"
"Okay, don't talk nonsense with me anymore, Bingxue, you won't give your Amethyst Drunken Night Pearl to your imperial sister-in-law."
"Father's ......"
"I am willing to gamble and lose, who makes you inferior to others and arrogant, this time it is to teach you a lesson, you must know that there is a sky outside the sky, there are people outside the world, and it is good to be low-key in the future."
"Yes, Father." Bing Xue was extremely reluctant to take off the night pearl on his waist and hand it to Ling Ruoxuan with one hand, and said hatefully: "Here you go." ”
Ling Ruoxuan was already not interested in her Amethyst Drunken Dream Night Pearl, if it weren't for the fact that this ice and snow princess was too deceitful, she wouldn't want to dance with her.
At this time, the King of Thailand got up, took the night pearl and respectfully handed it to Ling Ruoyi and said, "The imperial sister-in-law doesn't have to be polite to Bing Xue, she loses by herself." And the younger brother has to thank the imperial sister-in-law, otherwise my flute and the imperial brother's jade fan will fall into her hands. ”
"Hmph." Bing Xue snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and stepped out of the hall.
And Concubine Yun's mother and son, who had been watching everything on the side, raised a sly smile at the corner of their mouths, this smile was a little banter and mockery, looking at their expressions, you can know that she Ling Ruoyi has not lived a stable life......
