As the father-in-law shouted outside: "The emperor has arrived!" The queen has arrived! ”

Those who were sitting and standing in the hall walked to both sides one after another, leaving a long aisle in the middle, and when Shangguansha appeared at the door, all the people knelt down and shouted: "Long live the emperor, long live the queen!" ”

"Everyone's salute!" Shangguan Sha sat on a high seat and said to the person kneeling below.

The princes and concubines below all stood up, and then sat down towards their seats, because of the matter of the white bear, Shangguan Chen had been sticking to Shangguan Rui and sat with him, Su Muwan and Shangguan Yu sat next to them, and Su Xinai sat behind the two.

On the opposite side sat Shangguan Qian and others.

The emperor sat at the head of the throne, and the queen and the precious concubine sat on either side, the prince sat on either side of the lower seat, the princess and other concubines sat farther away, and some of the invited official ladies sat in the back seats.

When everyone was ready, the palace maids took the food and set it up for each table, and when they were all ready, they rushed out, and then a group of dancers walked in.

The strings sounded and the dancers danced.

Everyone began to eat, and Shangguan Sha looked at the princes under the throne, and was very pleased.

This year, not only the princes are healthy, safe and stable, but even the royal brother Shangguan Rui, who has always been adrift, has also returned, which is really surprising.

After the meal was half full, the dancers withdrew, and at this time, the precious concubine said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this year is really festive, even the female dependents have become more numerous, since everyone is here, it is better to let them perform some talents to add to the fun!" ”

"Very good!" Shangguan Cha agrees with this idea very much, everyone gets together this year, naturally they want to have a little fun, and today, a lot of official ladies have been invited, and there are so many princes who have not married, so they can also choose for them from now on: "This matter will be handled by the concubine." ”

"The concubine obeys!" The precious concubine said with a smile, and then said to everyone: "Just now I said to the emperor, everyone has heard it, the general women's talent competition, naturally from the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, these four things, it is rumored that the prime minister has a woman, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, all proficient, so let's start with the qin, I don't know if Princess Yu can show it." ”

From the time the precious concubine made this suggestion, Su Muwan knew that it must be coming at her at this time, others don't know, Su Xinai understands very well, since she was a child, Shen Yun didn't cultivate her, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and only taught Su Xinai alone, but she didn't know anything.

At this time, saying this, obviously wanted to make her make a fool of herself.

was about to shirk it, but at this time, Su Xinai, who was behind her, stood up and made a salute: "The concubine doesn't know, my sister has been weak since she was a child, and she has also taken care of her body, but she has not practiced piano skills, this time, I will play a song for my sister to help the emperor and the princes!" ”

"Oh!" The precious concubine raised her eyebrows with interest: "So the rumored daughter of the Su family, who is good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, is Concubine Su?" And not a concubine? ”

The words were heart-wrenching, and Shangguan Yu's expression was a little bad.

"The mother smiled! Beloved is just a little bit, not proficient everywhere, compared with Niangniang and others, it is still far behind! Please forgive me if you don't play well! ”

When the palace maid brought a piano and put it on the table in the center of the hall, Su Xinai carried the skirt, walked to the center, sat down, and tried the tone with her hand a little, which was very appropriate.

"Xie Shengshang, Queen Xie, Concubine Xie! Give my beloved a chance this time, this repertoire, I want to dedicate it to the prince! After that, he glanced at Shangguan Yu shyly, and then played.

The song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" was played like a fascination, Su Xinai kept looking at Shangguan Yu during the playing, but Shangguan Yu kept looking at Su Muwan, and did not give her any charity.

The sound of the piano is mixed with grievances.

Everyone who listened could see that Su Xinai really liked Shangguan Yu very much, but Shangguan Yu was dedicated to Su Muwan, and in their hearts, they were upset for Su Xinai.

Although last time, Su Xinai's framing of Su Muwan was spread, but now it seems that it is just too much of a liking, but he can't get it, which is the result.

The women in the boudoir were all wronged by Su Xinai.

After the song ended, Shangguansha was the first to applaud: "Good playing!" ”

"Emperor Xie praises!" After Su Xinai thanked him, he retreated.

In such a comparison, Su Muwan is even more petty.

Nothing, as the concubine of the dignified Yu Palace, but she can't do anything, how ridiculous.

Su Xinai made a start, and the other ladies below began to behave one after another, and the hall suddenly became lively, and the emperor also took the opportunity to give a few marriages.

Shangguan Huan looked at Su Muwan while watching the performance, and found that she was just eating and didn't want to participate in it at all, so her mind moved and she laughed.

What a great opportunity!

"Father!" Shangguan Huan walked into the hall and said playfully: "I just heard from the side concubine that Princess Yu has been weak since she was a child and can't practice the piano, but in this qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, the most non-consuming thing is this chess skill, I don't know, has the imperial sister-in-law learned this!" ”

Su Xinai also said at this time: "At the beginning, my mother also found a master for my sister and taught me some knowledge in this area, but I had to learn too much at the beginning and didn't have time to pay attention, but with my sister's intelligence, I must have learned well, sister, otherwise, you can try it with the princess!" ”

"Yes, the imperial sister-in-law shouldn't be, not even this!" Seeing that Su Muwan didn't answer, Shangguan Huan covered his mouth and was surprised: "Could it really be?" ”

At this point, some people start to talk to each other.

Shangguan Yu couldn't hold back anymore at this time, frowned, and looked at Shangguan Huan: "Huan'er, can you talk to the imperial sister-in-law like this?" Where did you learn the rules taught in the palace? ”

Hearing Shangguan Yu say this about Shangguan Huan, the precious concubine smiled: "Yu'er, today is a family banquet, Huan'er is your sister, don't be so harsh!" The family is harmonious and beautiful, there are not so many rules, Your Majesty, you say, isn't it? ”

"yes!" Shangguan Cha also thinks that today's family, just be happy, Shangguan Huan's behavior, there is no big mistake, but this Wanwan, is it really nothing?

Seeing that everyone was speaking for her, Shangguan Huan's waist stiffened.

"Yes, Brother Huang, what are you doing so fiercely? If the imperial sister-in-law doesn't want to, forget it! She didn't have to compete with Su Muwan, she had heard Su Xinai say before, this Su Muwan has never learned anything since she was a child, and this chess skill is naturally not good, she came out to compete with Su Muwan, but it was just to humiliate her.

The effect is good, at least after today, everyone in the capital will know that this Princess Yu is a straw bag.

But as soon as the words were finished, Su Muwan stood up and gave a salute to the emperor: "Father and emperor, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone has shown something, and the daughter-in-law also wants to participate in it, but there is not much talent, it just so happens that the princess forgives me and asks me to try chess skills, I have learned this chess skill since I was a child, and it is passable, if the princess does not mind, my chess skills are not good, I am also willing to try it with you and help everyone!" ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Huan slightly, with a lot of disdain in his tone: "I naturally don't mind, but if the imperial sister-in-law loses, don't speak ill of me in front of the imperial brother!" ”

"Not really!"

The chessboard has been set, Su Muwan was about to leave her position, but was stopped by Shangguan Yu, Shangguan Yu's eyes were worried, and the meaning expressed was also very clear, if she didn't want to, no one could help her.

Su Muwan shook her head, in fact, it doesn't matter how she is, but she can't let Shangguan Yu lose face, as the concubine of Yuwangfu, she is the face of Yuwangfu.

The face of this Yu Wangfu cannot be lost!

She hasn't learned anything since she was a child, and Shen Yun won't allow her to learn, the Su family has a talented daughter, that's it, she just needs to be a good foil.

She was originally the pedal that Shen Yun prepared for Su Xinai.

In her previous life, she didn't see it clearly and ended up miserable, but in this life, she understands very well that she must live her own life, besides, she doesn't know how to play chess.

The two sat down, and Su Muwan looked at the chessboard curiously, this gesture made Shangguan Huan snort.

It's really nothing, this chessboard, shouldn't it be the first time I've seen it, it looks like I've never seen the world, this time, she wants her to lose this person.

"Imperial sister-in-law, I'll let you out first!" Shangguan Huan took the sunspot and said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll go first!"

Su Muwan took the white zig, tried it on the chessboard, and finally landed in a very inconspicuous position.

Seeing Su Muwan's posture, Shangguan Huan regretted a little that he tried with her.

Competing with such a board idiot, even if you win, there is nothing to say.

The two of them fell more and more, Su Muwan was blocked by Shangguan Huan every step she took, and Shangguan Chen was very worried when she watched the two of them come and go.

"Uncle Xiaohuang, you say, did Sister Princess lose this time!"

"I can't tell!"

Shangguan Rui was very interested, and at the same time he was surprised, he actually felt that Su Muwan's chess skills were so similar to himself, every move he thought of, she could put the chess pieces in the position of his heart in the next step.

Why is that?

The chessboard was almost full, and Shangguan Huan forced Su Muwan into a desperate situation, and suddenly became complacent.

"Imperial sister-in-law, now, you should admit defeat!"

Su Muwan scratched her head, looked at the chessboard, frowned, thought for a while, and then saw an empty position, pretending to be surprised, and said, "Alas, this can also be a white child!" ”

After settling.

Shangguan Huan gasped!
