Queen's New Clothes

Chapter 76 Little housekeeper
in the main account.

Emperor Zhaoyuan sat on a purple gold embossed dragon-pattern chair, looked at Wei Wei below, and said with great interest: "Tingzhou, I always remember that you are not a competitive person."

Since childhood, Wei Yan has always been leisurely and casual, and it is rare to see him doing his best for anything.Sometimes his rationality is frighteningly indifferent. If there is no obvious benefit to him, he will not meddle in his own business.So Wei Feng worked so hard this time, which really surprised Emperor Zhaoyuan.

Wei Wei was tall and tall, his face was a little pale, with a faint smile on his lips, he said: "Return to Your Majesty, this time is different."

Emperor Zhaoyuan said, "Oh, what's the difference?"

Wei Yan lifted his robe and bowed, "I don't know if what His Majesty said before the match can be counted?"

"Naturally, I keep my promise." Emperor Zhaoyuan knew what he was referring to, and he vaguely guessed some of it. He put down the memorial in his hand interestingly, looked at him and said, "Speak, what do you want to say to me?" What do I ask for?"

After coming out of the tent, Wei Yan went straight back to his tent.

Li Hong looked at the blood dripping from his sleeve, and said in shock: "Master, I heard that you went to the back mountain forest today?"

Wei Yan sat on the elm couch, took off his coat, and saw a not-so-shallow scratch on his left shoulder.The wound was deep, and it looked like it was injured by the sharp claws of a wild beast. He had already cleaned it with herbs, and said without changing his face at this moment: "Bring me the medicine."

Li Hong went to get the medicine, and seeing that the wound was still bleeding, he hurriedly said, "I'll ask the doctor to come and see you."

Here, Su Xi is applying medicine to Su Zhi's arm.

The wound on Su Zhi's arm was not deep, it was just a skin trauma, and it would heal within a few days after taking the medicine.Su Xi carefully bandaged the wound with gauze, and couldn't help but think of the scene she saw just now.Wei Feng seems to be injured too, how is his injury?

He is also really, why do you have to hunt such a ferocious animal as a tiger?Does winning or losing really matter?Su Xi was absent-minded. She thought it was the same whether the second brother won or Wei Feng won.

I don't know if anyone has given him medicine at this moment?Has Li Hong invited the accompanying doctor?

"Youyou?" Seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, Su Zhi couldn't help asking.

Su Xi raised her eyes, only to see that she had only bandaged half of her second brother's wound, she hurriedly collected her thoughts and continued to wrap up the other half. "Second brother, remember not to let the wound touch the water when you go back, and don't drink alcohol at the dinner tonight. I heard Doctor Hao say that alcohol is not good for wound healing. Although your wound is not deep, it is better to drink less. "

Chattering, like a little housekeeper.

Tonight, Emperor Zhaoyuan held a banquet to celebrate the successful end of the spring hunt and invited everyone to attend.There will be singing and dancing to add to the fun, and drinking is essential.Su Zhi is well aware of this point, knowing that he can only drink less, but he can't stop drinking. He didn't want to worry Su Xi, so he didn't tell her this, but said: "I will pay more attention."

Su Xi nodded, packed up the gauze and ointment, and walked out of the second brother's tent.

On the way, I happened to see Li Hong leading a doctor coming towards me. Su Xi stopped for a while, and when Li Hong came up to her, she hesitated and asked, "I just saw that cousin Tingzhou seems to be injured. I don't know how his injury is." How about it? I still have a bottle of ointment to stop bleeding, why don't I ask the servant girl to take it for Cousin Tingzhou to use later."

Because there are people around, she can't show too much concern.

Li Hong thanked her, and said: "My son is seriously injured, he was still bleeding just now, thank you Miss Su Jiu for your concern."

Su Xi froze for a moment.When she saw that her second brother's injury was just a skin trauma, she thought that Wei Yan had only suffered a minor injury, but she didn't expect Wei Feng's injury to be so serious?

Su Xi wanted to follow her to have a look, but she stopped suddenly as soon as she turned her footsteps.This is no other place, with eyes watching all around, how could she follow Li Hong into Wei Feng's tent?
Su Xi regained her sanity, but after returning to her tent, she was still a little restless.

She thought, Wei Feng looked normal when he came back, and now he is being treated by a doctor, so there shouldn't be anything wrong, right?If it was really serious, it would definitely not be as peaceful as it is now.Su Xi comforted herself, and then found some other things to distract herself, and soon it was time to light up the lights, the night was low, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, and the dinner party was about to begin.

Su Xi changed into a moon-white Suzhou embroidered butterfly-love pattern blouse and a bean-green butterfly-love pattern pleated skirt. She wore a begonia red trimmed fox fur cape, and a white jade hairpin inlaid with turquoise on her head.After tidying up, I didn't know what to think of, went back to the room and took a small bottle of sweet white porcelain, stuffed it into my sleeve, and then walked out of the tent.

The dinner was held in the open space behind the tent, and everyone sat in separate seats.The two emperors and queens sat on the stage behind the red lacquer head case, and next to them were the children of various aristocratic families who participated in the hunt today, and behind them were the female relatives of each family.

Su Xi and Yu Baotong sat at the same table, there were a lot of people attending the banquet tonight, they were a little far away from the front, and it was dark, so they couldn't see the people in front of them at all.

Su Xi has been a little absent-minded since she was seated. She looked at the several plates of appetizers in front of her with her chin in her hands, and she pursed her mouth, as if she had no appetite.She was not hungry in the first place, she just ate a bowl of lotus leaf porridge in the evening, and she is still full at the moment.And she didn't want to eat, so the banquet had been going on for a long time, but she didn't put down her chopsticks for a long time.

Not far away, there are several fire racks, on which are the prey obtained from hunting in the past few days, and cooks are standing on both sides, spreading seasoning on the deer, and the oil dripping on the flames makes a "crackling" sound.On the way to the paddock, Yu Baotong was diagnosed by the doctor as being two months pregnant. He just had a nausea reaction yesterday, and he couldn't smell the meat at the moment. He couldn't take it anymore, and ran to the back covering his mouth.

Su Xi was about to follow her to take care of her when she saw the sixth elder brother Su Zuo throwing down his wine glass and hurried over, helping Yu Baotong to walk away.

Su Xi had no choice but to sit down again.

Not long after, dancers in neon dresses and feather gowns came in one after another, and retreated after a dance, maybe because there were female relatives present today, and everyone was very well behaved.

Princess Shouchang, who was sitting under Emperor Zhao Yuan, suggested: "Your Majesty, Miss Fu of the Duke of Qing's Mansion has a wonderful piano sound. When my sister celebrated her birthday, Miss Fu once played a piece of music for her. All the birds are attracted. Ms. Fu is here today, how about taking this opportunity to let Ms. Fu play another song?"

Emperor Zhaoyuan heard Princess Shouchang speak so miraculously, he couldn't help being curious, and said: "I would like to hear what kind of music can attract birds."

After speaking, he asked Eunuch Chang to invite Fu Yi to come.

Fu Yi knelt down to Emperor Zhaoyuan, "I will see you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is safe."

Emperor Zhaoyuan made her flattened, and then said: "I heard from the eldest princess that your piano skills are good. I wonder if you can play a piece today, so that I can listen to it too?"

Fu Yi hurriedly said: "It's my daughter's honor to be appreciated by His Majesty. It's just that my daughter's piano skills are not good. If she doesn't play well, I hope His Majesty will not blame you."

Emperor Zhaoyuan said it was all right, so he ordered people to bring the piano and put it in the center of the table below.

Fu Yi bowed to Emperor Zhaoyuan, then walked behind the piano and sat down.She raised her hands and placed them lightly on the strings. At the request of Emperor Zhaoyuan, she played "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" played on the day of Princess Shouchang's birthday banquet.

Playing this piece of music is very appropriate at this time.

Just listen to the sound of the piano gradually sounding over the vast wilderness.Fu Yi's fingering is very skillful, and the high and low transitions are very free. A piece of music is like an unrolled scroll, smooth and freehand, which makes people feel that they have seen the end and still have more meaning.

At the end of the song, Emperor Zhaoyuan praised sincerely: "Good, you played it really well."

No wonder even Princess Shouchang praised her.

Most of the people in the field were also attracted by Fu Yi's piano sound, and they were fascinated by it.

Li Yan put down the wine glass in his hand, and fixed his eyes on Fu Yi, with appreciation and bewilderment hidden in his eyes.

Fu Yi stood up, bowed again and said humbly: "Thank you for your compliment, it's my daughter who made a fool of herself."

Emperor Zhaoyuan was about to ask Fu Yi what reward he wanted, when the little princess Wei Deyin who was sitting next to Empress Liu spoke plausibly while eating rose cakes: "Father, Queen, Aunt Xi can play so well." Even better, Deyin likes to hear Aunt Xi play the piano."
