Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 335 Playing
The music of "Three Lanes of Plum Blossoms" is concise and calm, with panaconic playing as the main tune, and the timbre is clear and melodious.

It emphasizes that the plum blossoms in the morning are about to bloom, crystal clear and white, and fragrant.

At noon, the plum blossoms are in full bloom, bright and fragrant, and greet people with smiling faces.

The plum blossoms in the evening are accompanied by the setting sun slanting to the west, and the falling petals are colorful and charming.

At the end of the song, the girl chanted softly: "The Taoist is blindly meditating, whoever sends smallpox to his eyes.

Randomly inserting copper vases to see the sun is always a good cause and fate for people. "

Jiang Changning laughed again, this poem, this girl probably only wants the last three words.

Good karma, good marriage.

Is it a good marriage to enter the palace to be the emperor's concubine?
Jiang Changning took his hand out of Emperor Xuanzhi's palm, took two sips from the teacup, and put it back on the small table.

The Empress Dowager also asked Emperor Xuanzhi, "How is it?"

Emperor Xuanzhi was still indifferent, "It's superfluous."

If you play the piano, you can play the piano, chant some poems, and show off your talent and learning.

Hearing this, he knew that he didn't like it either, so the queen mother signaled the eunuch to let the third girl perform.

It is still Fuqin, Fu's first minor tune, "Sniffing Green Plum".

This tune is adapted from Li Qingzhao's "Dian Jiang Lips·Cu Ba Swing": When you get up on the swing, you will be carefree and slender.The dew is thick and the flowers are thin, and the sweat is light and the clothes are transparent.Seeing guests come in, the socks are knocked out and the gold hairpin slips away.He walked away in shame, leaned on the door and looked back, but sniffed the green plum.

The little girl's voice is like a yellow warbler, and she sings melodiously. Listening to the song, it's like seeing a cute little girl.

The queen mother always felt that her son was too calm and her daughter-in-law was too gentle, so she smiled and said, "This is quite lively, isn't it, emperor?"

"Noisy." Emperor Xuanzhi was still cold.

The Queen Mother's mouth twitched, too noisy?Okay, I heard too much from the officials in the court, and I really need to be quiet in the harem, "Next."

Emperor Xuanzhi reached out to hold the cup, Jiang Changning hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, that is the cup I drank from."

"I know." Emperor Xuanzhi didn't put down the cup, but took a few sips from his mouth.

The others watched and listened to the music, but their attention was on the empress. Seeing this, the wives who didn't want to send someone into the palace would smile heartily, while the wives who wanted to send people into the palace would sink in their hearts.

Zhao Xifang curled her lips in disdain, this couple is really good at acting, she didn't believe that the empress would be so affectionate.

Just as disbelieving as she was the fourth girl who was a talented performer. The song she played was "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix".

Such a straightforward expression of heart shocked everyone present.

"Mother, my son still has a memorial to read, so I won't accompany you to admire the flowers." Emperor Xuanzhi said, got up and left.

The Empress Dowager was also not good at keeping people, so she had to look at the crowd and salute and said, "Respectfully, Your Majesty."

As soon as Emperor Xuanzhi left, Jiang Changning had to continue socializing with his wives.

After finishing the five pieces of music, the painting made by the two painting girls was also finished.

Both girls painted chrysanthemums, closely related to the theme of today's banquet.

A painting of chrysanthemums with broken branches, four colors in total, pink, light yellow, deep red and white with blue.

The composition is complicated, as bright as brocade, revealing a sense of wealth and nobility.

Jiang Changning could tell at a glance that this girl was imitating "The Picture of Flying Butterflies in Chrysanthemums" by Zhu Shaozong of the previous dynasty.

This girl is so clever, she only drew the broken branches of chrysanthemums, and did not draw the nymphs flying up and down, but without the dynamic butterflies and bees, the chrysanthemum picture is a little less angry and a little dull.

Or maybe there is not enough time. The petals and leaves, which need to be dyed with precision, are not dyed well, and the three-dimensional effect is not enough.

Of course, at this girl's age, it's not bad to be able to draw like this.

The Empress Dowager praised: "The coloring is bright and the brush strokes are smooth. It is a good painting."

"Thank you for your compliment." The girl and the girl's mother were very happy.

Jiang Changning turned to look at another painting. This painting didn't use so many colors. The chrysanthemum leaves were drawn in thick ink and the petals were drawn with a fine brush.

It can also be seen that this painting is the painting method of famous masters in the pre-school period, but it is still young and not enough to be easily formed, showing craftsmanship.

There is no painting of chrysanthemums with long Qingyun and lofty artistic conception.

But still the same sentence, the girl is still young, so it is not bad to be able to draw like this.

After looking at the painting, it was the turn of the last girl, Wang Miaoyun, to play the zither.

After Emperor Xuanzhi left, Wang Miaoyun lost interest in performing, but she had to perform.

Wang Miaoyun played the song "Out of the Water Lotus", which is also an ancient song, with a simple and elegant tone, beautiful and lyrical.

In terms of fingering, gorgeous long finger strings are rarely used, and most of them are short flick strings.

This piece of music mainly expresses the noble and pure character of the lotus flower, which emerges from the mud without being stained, clean and ripples without being demonic.

Jiang Changning raised his eyebrows slightly. The songs the girls chose were all intentional. Is this Miss Wang trying to express that she is a flourishing lotus?

After the girls' talents have been showcased, this chrysanthemum banquet can also be over.

The Empress Dowager "treated them equally" and gave the seven girls the same things: a pair of necklaces, a gold ruyi handle, a piece of brocade, a box of Shixin palace flowers, and a pearl bracelet.

It's fine if she rewarded them, she also said: "Queen, what do you want to reward them?"

Jiang Changning smiled, "I don't reward as much as my mother does, I'm afraid they will dislike you."

"How dare they." The Queen Mother laughed.

Jiang Changning smiled, and Xiulan gave the prepared things to the seven girls.

The girls thanked each other and left the palace with the wives.

"Queen Mother, my daughter-in-law will take you back to the palace." Jiang Changning reached out to support the Queen Mother.

The queen mother patted her hand lightly, "Queen, you used to be a princess in the palace. It's okay for you to behave pervertedly. Now you are the queen of the mother's world, so you can't act so petty."

Jiang Changning's eyes flickered slightly, "Daughter-in-law understands, daughter-in-law obeys mother's orders."

The queen mother nodded slightly in satisfaction, "Those seven girls, which one is better for you to look at?"

"Queen Mother, they are going to serve His Majesty. If His Majesty thinks the one is good, then that is fine." Jiang Changning will not choose by himself.

"You're right, I'll ask the emperor when we have dinner." The queen mother made up her mind to get someone into the palace.

Jiang Changning calmly helped the Empress Dowager onto the phoenix chariot, and sent her back to the Palace of Mercy.

Zhao Xifang, who was out of the palace, did not go back to Prince Yu's mansion, but to her mother's house. She wanted to persuade her parents not to think about sending someone into the palace and compete with Jiang Changning for favor.

But before she could speak, Zhao Wang said, "If I knew that King Jin had such a great fortune, I shouldn't have let your grandmother go to the palace and told the queen mother to point you to King Yu."

Zhao Xifang was taken aback, "Mother, what do you mean by that?"

"Back when you entered the palace for a talent show, you knew that the palace was going to marry several princes and princes. Your grandmother thought that the king married Jin was a step-wife and was not good enough for you, so she went to the palace to ask the queen mother, who pointed you out to me. King Yu."

Zhao Xifang was stunned, "That is to say, if grandma doesn't go to the palace to beg the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will refer me to King Jin, right?"

"Yes."

"Why, why don't you ask me about this?" Zhao Xifang asked sadly.
