Chapter 97: Dealing with Difficulties
Cheng Shuiyao felt the world from all directions, but her heart was not touched at all, she still looked like a big and generous person.
"Then according to the rules just now, you have to perform," the queen hurriedly played a round and looked at Cheng Shuiyao with a smile, "Then you are good at music?" ”
"I know a little bit about it," Cheng Shuiyao smiled slightly, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking.
"General Xiao has been outstanding since he was a child, and he is both skilled in martial arts, and the wife he will marry in the future will naturally not be bad, let's wait and see," the prime minister opened his mouth as if he was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and directly pushed Cheng Shui Yu to the cusp.
In other words, if Cheng Shuiyao fails to perform a show that everyone recognizes today, it will be the face of the General's Mansion that will be lost
Cheng Shuiyao squinted slightly, knowing that the prime minister was killing herself, her face was not panicked at all, and she walked directly to the center of the crowd.
"Madame General is ready for talent? That palace should be appreciated and appreciated," the queen said slowly, and at the same time made up her mind in her heart.
No matter how Cheng Shuiyao performs, she will stand on Cheng Shuiyao's side to prevent people from deliberately provoking.
Cheng Shuiyao nodded when she heard this, gestured to Moqin, who was waiting in the distance, and then turned her head to look at the emperor and queen, "It's a poetry meeting, so naturally it needs to be accompanied by some elegant music. ”
As the words fell, Moqin presented a bamboo flute with a whole body of turquoise in both hands, and left here with his head down.
Cheng Shuiyao put the flute to his mouth, then slowly closed his eyes and began to play.
The soothing and gentle music instantly drifted into the air, and everyone was stunned, as if they didn't expect her to be so good at it.
The prime minister secretly pinched himself, so that he could not hold back his thoughts.
According to his investigation, Cheng Shuiyao should be a person who has never studied poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, and righteousness, but today, it seems that Cheng Shuiyao is more outstanding than this girl who was well-educated in the capital.
His calculations were in vain.
Cheng Shuiyao didn't know anything about the outside world at this time, and was immersed in the world of the flute wholeheartedly, and couldn't see the reaction of others at all.
At the end of the song, the hall applauded.
Although Xiao Ji never opened his mouth, the smile on his face betrayed his true thoughts.
"The general's wife is so good at boasting, but this skill is so superb, I don't know which master taught it?" The prime minister suddenly spoke, his expression a little provocative
"I think the Prime Minister may have forgotten," Xiao Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, and said unhurriedly, "I have listened to the true biography of Master Yue since I was a child, and at the age of fifteen, I once moved the capital with a song "Zheng Geli", with my experience, isn't it more than enough to teach my wife?" ”
"This ......"
The prime minister didn't expect the other side to throw the question back, secretly grinded his teeth, and forcibly spoke, "Since this is the case, then this is reasonable." ”
Cheng Shuiyao saw that the prime minister was visibly sweating, and her attitude was quite happy, but in order to control her expression, she could only keep stuffing desserts into her mouth and suppressing the curvature of the corners of her mouth.
The prime minister couldn't find fault, and he knew that there was no need to continue this topic, so he immediately changed to another topic.
"It seems that we didn't lose," Cheng Shuiyao quietly approached Xiao Ji and spoke, her eyes full of excitement and joy.
She didn't expect that she could make the prime minister deflated so easily, and now she can't be happier in her heart.
"Don't take it lightly, the prime minister is not a good man, he may have a back hand waiting for us," Xiao Ji waved his hand, seeing that Cheng Shuiyao was a little relaxed, he hurriedly reminded her.
Cheng Shuiyao nodded, restrained himself slightly, and cast his gaze on the field.
However, everyone is doing the same thing, there is no innovation at all, Cheng Shuiyao only listened to a few, and he had no idea of listening to it anymore.
"All boring?" Xiao Ji yawned, and looked at Cheng Shuiyao's eyes with water.
"It's really a little boring, but I can only stay here," Cheng Shuiyao gently rubbed his sore waist behind him and whispered.
"Calculate the time, it shouldn't be too long to stay here, and after a while, it should be time for us to visit the Imperial Garden on our own," Xiao Ji patted Cheng Shuiyao's hand under the table and comforted him intimately.
Cheng Shuiyao nodded and focused on the field.
Not long after, all the young ladies were finished performing, and the queen didn't stay with everyone, and after chatting with a few intimate ladies, she beckoned everyone to leave.
Although this palace banquet is under the banner of poetry, the real role is to promote the marriage of the princes and ladies in the capital.
Cheng Shuiyao and Xiao Ji had nothing to do with this, they directly dispersed with the crowd and visited the Imperial Garden on their own.
The imperial garden is much larger than the garden at home, and Cheng Shuiyao is a little dazzled when she looks at the variety of flowers.
She has always loved flowers, and the most beautiful flowers are completely irresistant.
"If you like it, I can go and ask the emperor for a pot or two," Xiao Ji guessed what she was thinking, rubbed Cheng Shuiyao's shoulder, and said with a smile.
"Then forget it," Cheng Shuiyao shook her head when she heard this, "I'm not good at taking care of these, what if I can't take care of them?" ”
"There are people in the mansion who will plant these flowers, you don't have to worry about this," Nie Yuanheng waved his hand directly and looked at Cheng Shuiyao with a serious face, "As long as you want, there will always be a way to solve it." ”
"Since that's the case...... Cheng Shuiyao was indeed a little tempted, pointing to a special purple flower not far away, and said with a smile, "Then I want that." ”
Xiao Ji glanced at the flower that Cheng Shuiyao pointed to, silently remembered it in his heart, and pulled Cheng Shuiyao to continue to visit the palace
The water in the palace is all living water, so even in winter, it is not frozen at all.
Cheng Shuiyao stood on the wooden bridge, looking at a few koi swimming in the water, and his expression unconsciously slowed down a little.
Xiao Ji waved his hand at the eunuch not far away, signaling him to come closer.
The eunuch only thought that he had an order, and hurriedly trotted over, waiting for him to speak.
"Go get some fish food," Xiao Ji pointed at Cheng Shuiyao and said slowly, "My wife wants to feed the fish." ”
This......
The eunuch didn't expect Xiao Ji to call himself just to get a few packets of fish food, so he was stunned for a moment, then nodded as if he had just woken up from a dream and turned to leave.
"There's no need," Cheng Shuiyao took all his words into his ears, a little happy in his heart, and turned his head to look at Nie Yuanheng.
"It's okay," Xiao Ji waved his hand, "I saw that you had this idea, so I took it upon myself to ask you for fish food, and you just fed the fish directly." ”
This is a good fate that she has cultivated in several lifetimes!
Cheng Shuiyao roared in her heart, and the smile on her face gradually expanded, looking obviously in a good mood.
