"The quarrel of the younger generation" is not an allusion to the struggle for the throne between the crown prince and King An.

"Xiao Guogong don't interfere", isn't it a warning to Xiao Guogong not to get involved in the dispute for the prince.

He also reminded Emperor Xiao Guogong that he was still there, and let him restrain him, and the immortals fought, which was really extraordinary.

Xiao Guogong snorted coldly.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, now that he has grown up. Lao Chen still remembers that when the prince was a child, he cried when he fell. ”

"What Guogong said is that people come from childhood, and they will live to the age of Guogong before they can laugh at other people's childhood."

When he was a child, it was because he fell and fell on a stone, it hurt too much, and he cried, and when Xiao Guogong saw it, his father punished him and reprimanded him:

"You are the crown prince, the future king of a country, tears cannot be seen by any outsiders, otherwise, your weakness will only kill you in the end!"

Since then, he has never cried again, until just now.

Xiao Guogong has been in a high position for so many years, and when his face is cold, the coercion is not something that ordinary people can bear, but the prince faces his gaze without any pressure.

The emperor was angry in his heart, but he connived at the lawlessness of these courtiers, and they could quarrel in front of him.

But seeing that the prince was so at ease, he was more relieved in his heart.

Over the years, he has indulged in Xiao Guifei and Xiao Guogong's family, just to leave an opponent for his son, an opponent who can temper him into steel. Now, his crown prince has really grown into a towering tree and can be on his own.

"That's it!"

The emperor lowered his face and scolded majestically, and the hall was silent when it was neutral.

"The court has not argued enough, and you have to fight for the palace banquet, you are really living more and more!"

"The ministers are guilty."

Those who participated, those who did not, and the courtiers were busy getting up to confess.

"Alright, sit down, the feast continues."

Now was not the time to finally tear his face, so the emperor picked it up high and put it down gently.

Xiao Feifei was the last to dance, and the dance was Sikong Yu's "Lover's Tears".

Xiao Feifei was dancing, and from time to time she sent a wave of tenderness to the crown prince Jun Lingyun. It's a pity that Jun Lingyun only lowered his head to drink tea and didn't even look at her.

She practiced this song, she wanted to dance for the prince, but her wish was not fulfilled, Xiao Feifei was annoyed, and her legs were a little weak, she turned around, almost fell, and was busy stabilizing her mind.

finally finished dancing, and her whole body was about to collapse. But from beginning to end, he failed to get a look from the prince.

Xiao Feifei reluctantly returned to her position.

The emperor looked at Gonggong Fu, and the Gonggong Fugong would understand and take a step forward. A palace maid brought a tray with a lot of notes on it. Fu Gong Justice:

"Our emperor, I came up with a good idea this year, first write the names of the young ladies on a slip of paper and distribute them to the nobles, and then the nobles will put the first place in their hearts into the cardboard box.

However, each family does not have its own lady's name. In this way, you can be fair and just, and you will not neglect your talent because of your identity. ”

Everyone nodded, it is indeed a good idea, the top names in previous years are usually taken by the princess and Xiao Feifei, it seems that this year's results may be different.

The palace maids distributed notes to everyone, and walked around with cardboard boxes.

Fu Gonggong began to roll call, and naturally there were civil officials on the side to record.

"Eighth Princess!"

Sure enough, there are still people who voted for Princess Wantao, and the emperor's face still has to be given, although the princess dances well, but it has not reached the first level.

"Chu Yunxi!"

Everyone nodded, and it was well deserved.

"Chu Yunxi!"

"Chu Yunxi!"

"Chu Yunxi!"

Xiao Feifei's face was ugly, how could it be Chu Yunxi? She is the dignified daughter of the Duke of Xiaoguo, but no one voted for her?

Chu Xue'er also clenched her fists under the table, and smiled softly at Chu Yunxi on her face.

As a result, Chu Yunxi gave her a bright smile back, and almost didn't vomit blood.

"Chu Yunxi!"

"Chu Yunxi!"

……

After a long list of Chu Yunxi, Xiao Feifei finally heard her name.

"Xiao Feifei!"

But she had nothing to be happy about, and she thought about it, which official who wanted to slap her father voted.

Xiao Feifei was so angry that she almost threw the veil, but because of the occasion, she had to hold back.

Princess Wantao's little face was full of happiness. She is not greedy, Sister Yunxi dances so well, like a goddess descending to earth, it is already a very happy thing to be able to be famous with Sister Yunxi.

Father-in-law Fu doesn't have to count the votes, it's clear at a glance.

"Chu Yunxi, the eldest lady of the Chu family, won the first place in the dance competition, and invited Miss Chu to come forward and receive the reward!"

Hearing Gonggong Fu shouting to himself, Chu Yunxi hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, and took the white jade plum hairpin with both hands.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Emperor nodded in praise and said:

"Your dancing skills are indeed deserved, and you deserve it."

Xiao Guifei also admonished:

"Miss Chu must not lose her original intention because of a gain or loss, and she must temper more."

Chu Yunxi heard a different meaning from Concubine Xiao's words.

What was her original intention? In Xiao Guifei's opinion, her original intention was An Wang Jun Hongyan, right? Scold!

"The courtiers remember the teachings of the noble concubine."

After winning the reward, he listened to all the good and bad words, and Chu Yunxi retreated. Immediately afterwards, Fu Gonggong announced the start of the painting competition.

The people looked at the princess, but they heard her say:

"I won't participate in the last two competitions."

The emperor looked lovingly at his favorite princess and asked curiously:

Why is that? Wantao doesn't want color head? ”

"Back to my father, you are self-aware, I saw Sister Yunxi's paintings, I also heard the song, I am ashamed of myself, and I am willing to bow down. So voluntarily withdraw from the competition. Save everyone some time, eat and drink. ”

The princess's words, unpretentious, amused everyone.

But there are also those who have been insinuated that they have no self-knowledge, and they blushed at this time, but they can't refute it.

Chu Yunxi got up and blessed Princess Wantao:

"The eighth princess is humble, no one knows the talent of the eighth princess, but the princess's status is noble, and there is no need to study too much in these small skills.

These are just the most superficial things, the princess is kind and intelligent, and she has the amount of tolerance, such a character is rare. ”

The more Princess Wantao looks at this future sister-in-law, the more she likes it, and the two smile heartily, and their hearts and minds intersect, as if they have been friends for many years.

"Okay, then later, everyone will eat and drink well, don't let down Wantao's hard work. Hahaha"

The Emperor laughed, and the atmosphere at the banquet became lively again.

The other ladies still have to go on stage to paint.

A stick of incense time, after the painting was completed, the emperor named the prince of Hao:

"Zifeng, let's comment first."

"Yes, Uncle Huang."

Jun Zifeng stepped forward. The palace maid held up the works of the ladies to show everyone, and Jun Zifeng walked through the front and began to comment one by one:

"The style of painting is good, but the painting still needs to be lean."

A young lady blushed and lowered her head, and was commented on by the talented and good-looking prince Haowang Shizi for not being good at painting, which was really a bit embarrassing.

"It's a good painting, but it's a little less smart. Slightly rigid. ”

Another young lady bowed her head.

"It's beautifully drawn, it's peaceful and distant."

Chu Xue'er bent the corners of her mouth, she has practiced this painting many times.

"If you can have an independent team, it will definitely be more interesting."

Jun Zifeng added another sentence, which made Chu Xue'er's smile freeze on his face.

"The color is bold, the landscape is suitable, and it is pleasing to the eye."

Xiao Feifei raised her chin proudly, but in the next moment, Jun Zifeng added as usual:

"It's just that I didn't draw the vastness of the landscape, and I was a little stingy."

Xiao Feifei was just proud for a moment, and was beaten back to her original shape, and drank it from the teacup again.

Xiao Zhang, the second brother beside her, reminded angrily:

"Drink less, save yourself ugliness!"

Xiao Feifei remembered her ugly state before, and her eyes were red.

A group of young ladies with black faces, isn't there a painting that the prince of Hao is satisfied with? I have to add one more sentence to add to the blockage! Alas, the Poison-Tongued Immortals are not welcome.

Jun Zifeng finally walked to Chu Yunxi's painting and was silent.
