Killer Pretty Queen

Chapter 030 Guzheng Yiqin

Xiao Li walked back to her seat, but couldn't help frowning again.

It was originally agreed to play a piece of music for the emperor, queen and everyone present.But she didn't want to think that she would encounter such an incident before entering the palace, so until now, she was not even prepared at all.

If you only talk about impromptu performances, it's fine. With her strong and calm heart, she still has a little bit of aura.However, there are some things that just having an aura is not enough.

Not to mention anything else, just the qin for playing the music, at this moment, where should she go to find it?

"Mother, what do you think my daughter should do now?" Lowering her head and asking her mother's opinion in a very low voice, Xiao Li began to regret her impulsiveness just now.At the very least, she shouldn't be so careless that she even forgot that she didn't have props before she said those words.

"Miss Xiao, please come with me." Suddenly a stranger's words came from behind her. After hearing this, Xiao Li turned around quickly, only to find a little palace maid standing behind her: "Miss Xiao, is it because she can't find her?" Are you worried about musical instruments? Please come with the servant, the servant has already prepared it for you."

After Xiao Li heard this, she couldn't help but be full of doubts, right?This court lady is really too prescient, right?What she just said to the emperor, she has already prepared everything?

But, who cares, as long as she can lend her a piano now, she will be grateful in her heart.

Following the little maid into the side hall beside the main hall, a moon-white figure suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Li.

"Fourth Prince?" Why did he suddenly appear here?Shouldn't he be at the banquet in the hall?

Alas, it seems that she really failed this time.He was so nervous that he didn't even bother to take a look at the person opposite him whenever there was one less person.

When her face was still surprised, Huangfu Haotian had already squinted his extremely beautiful red phoenix eyes and smiled at her: "Unexpectedly, A Li, Master, is actually a bosom friend. But, Master You have already found out, before you enter the palace today, you probably didn't have time to prepare anything, right?"

"How did the fourth prince know?" Damn, did he really think he was the worm in Xiao Li's stomach?

But right now, even if Xiao Li doesn't want to admit it, she can't, because it's clearly the case.

Now that I have something to ask for, Xiao Li had no choice but to lower her head, showing a low-browed look: Fortunately, the fourth prince is willing to help me, otherwise, this time, my Xiao family's face will not let me alone It's gone. "

After Huangfu Haotian heard this, he showed her a calm smile: "It shouldn't be that serious to lose Xiaofu's face, but fourth master is very worried that you will lose face .”

This person is really hateful.

Xiao Li couldn't bear it anymore, so she raised her head and gave Huangfu Haotian a white look.But immediately, she still smiled at Huangfu Haotian: "No matter what, since the fourth prince is willing to help Xiao Li, Xiao Li is already very grateful in her heart."

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Haotian waved his hand at her suddenly: "You don't want to thank you first, because I'm still not sure whether I can help you, fourth master."

Xiao Li couldn't help being stunned for a while: "What does the fourth prince mean by this? Could it be that the fourth prince wants to go back on his word now?"

Huangfu Haotian suddenly reached out and touched her forehead: "You girl, what kind of person do you think of Fourth Master? Fourth Master, am I the kind of person who contradicts what he says and doesn't count what he says?"

On this point, Xiao Li was really a little uncertain in her heart.

Seeing that she just pouted and didn't speak, Huangfu Haotian smiled at her, then raised his hand and gave her a light blow on the chest, "Papa——"

The little maid who brought Xiao Li here just now suddenly appeared in front of her again.Only this time, she was holding a long musical instrument in her hand.

When Xiao Li saw it, her eyes almost went straight: "It turns out that the fourth prince is not a qin, but a zither?"

Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but frowned slightly when he heard the words: "Could it be true that the Lord really hit the mark? But, isn't there a lot of similarities between the qin and the zither?"

"What!" As soon as the words came out, Xiao Li quickly showed a sweet smile at Huangfu Haotian: "Don't get me wrong, I actually want to thank you for coming."

"Thank you?" Huangfu Haotian was very puzzled.

But how could Xiao Li explain it clearly to him right now.She couldn't say it clearly, but in fact, this piano skill was in her mind, originally inherited from Xiao Li's previous memory, but what she was best at playing was this guzheng.

"That's right, even if I don't have a lyre, as long as I have the fourth prince's zither, I will be saved. Thank you, fourth prince, you are really my luck!" It may be a moment of excitement Over the top, Xiao Li actually started to speak incoherently.

"Lucky... 52?" Huangfu Haotian was obviously confused.

Xiao Li came to her senses immediately, and quickly explained to him with a smile: "Oh, lucky 52 actually means lucky star."

"Lucky star?" Looking at her blushing face with a smile, Huangfu Haotian's narrow and long phoenix eyes, which were so perfect to see, couldn't help but narrowed again: "I don't care whether the stars are stars or not, as long as my Ah Li, it would be great if you can successfully pass the test that the emperor set up for you."

Although he said this on his lips, in his heart, he was already happy.Lucky star!Although no one has ever described him like this, but hey, this feeling is really interesting.

"Fourth Prince..." Suddenly hearing Xiao Li whispering in his ear, Huangfu Haotian quickly retracted his wandering thoughts.

Lowering his eyes to meet hers, Huangfu Haotian couldn't help raising his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Huh? Huan Ye at this time, but what's the matter?"

A blush flashed across Xiao Li's face: "No, don't you mean you don't plan to go to the hall to watch my performance?"

Anyway, Huangfu Haotian did her a big favor this time, so she has to say something, isn't she?

At this time, Huangfu Haotian saw Xiao Li's sudden shyness, and it was inevitable that there would be a ripple in his heart.Suddenly stretching out his right hand to caress Xiao Li's smooth and smooth forehead, he smiled gently at her and said, "If, as you said, Master is really your lucky star, then let Master, give away all the good luck Bring it all to you!"

For some reason, seeing Huangfu Haotian's sudden seriousness, Xiao Li's heart suddenly felt a faint sense of happiness.

Could it be that her heart has really been captured by him?

Oh, forget it, at a time like this, she'd better stop thinking about it.

Back in the main hall, Xiao Li's face has been replaced with an elegant smile.

I saw her wearing the aqua blue palace dress, still wearing the smoky cloak, walking slowly between the halls, like a pool of rippling autumn water, with a hint of tranquility in the brightness.

Walking to the middle of the main hall, I saw her greet the emperor and empress on the stage with a blessing, and then she said with an elegant smile: "My majesty, empress, because this is the first time for my daughter to come to pay my respects to my empress today, so I prepare There are some shortcomings. Originally, I planned to present a qin art for everyone, but unexpectedly, the court lady was not well prepared and did not find a suitable long qin around her."

After the words were spoken, there was a sudden commotion in the hall: "What? Isn't it? What the hell is she up to?"

However, the emperor on the stage looked at Xiao Li's calm smile, but he wasn't worried at all, he just asked with a smile: "If that's the case, do you have other ways?"

Xiao Li smiled lightly: "Although the court lady did not find a suitable long piano, fortunately the fourth prince borrowed a guzheng. How about the court lady use this guzheng to play a new song for the emperor and empress?"

But they didn't know that the emperor and queen on the high platform suddenly changed their faces when they heard this, but everything was only in an instant. Soon after the two of them looked at each other, they smiled again and looked down at Xiao Li under the stage: "Since If that’s the case, then I’ll take it upon you.”

After Xiao Li smiled and thanked her, she called back to the little maid.I saw that behind that maid, there were already a few more young maids.Soon after several people set up the guzheng, they retreated quietly.

Xiao Li walked up to the zither, first bowed to the people around her, and said: "On the occasion of my mother's birthday, the little girl Xiao Li presented a piece of zither music called "Blue and White Porcelain" for everyone."

"Blue and white porcelain?" After hearing this, the emperor on the stage couldn't help flashing a questioning smile on his face: "What kind of song is this again? I don't seem to have heard of it before."

Xiao Li replied with a smile: "Today's queen's birthday, what my daughter's mother prepared for the queen was a pair of blue and white porcelain vases made by Ge Kiln in Ruzhou. Therefore, my daughter planned to name it after it on a whim. Present a song for the emperor, empress, and everyone sitting here. I also hope that the emperor, empress, and everyone sitting here will like it.

"Oh? So you still want to do an impromptu work?" After listening to Xiao Li's words, the empress seemed to find it very interesting, so she urged with a smile: "Hearing what you said, I really can't wait gone."

Not only the empress's face was like this, but even the people present at this time had a lot of interest in Xiao Li's words.

"I really don't know what kind of mystery this Xiao girl is playing?"

"That's right, and the blue and white porcelain song she mentioned, what kind of song is it? I really don't know what tricks she is up to."

Looking at the suspicious expressions of the crowd below, the emperor couldn't help showing a playful smile on his face: "In that case, please hurry up and reveal the answer to everyone, Miss Xiao!"

"Your servant obeys." She bowed her head again and said a blessing before Xiao Li slowly sat down behind the guzheng.
