The Stratagem of the Concubine of the Cold King

Chapter 122 What do you know (2)
The queen looked at Bai Mercury slightly, and she frowned deeply for a moment, but she didn't blame her, but looked at Xi Zhuyan and said, "In that case, it's better for Yan'er girl to come to the front hall to perform first." .”

Xi Zhuyan secretly hated herself for not speaking before Bai Mercury, but now that the queen had said it, she didn't dare to delay any longer, so she could only respectfully respond: "It's the empress."

Xi Zhuyan was walking in broken lotus steps, her white lotus skirt was shining brightly, she walked slowly into the hall to Emperor Xuande, the empress and others, and after paying respects to everyone, she said: "Empress, Yan'er is ready to play A guqin, but Yan'er wants His Royal Highness Su Wang to accompany the flute, please allow the empress to allow it."

After hearing Xi Zhuyan's bold request, the queen's expression was a bit ugly. Su Wang Feng Yixiao was born in her main palace. In her eyes, Feng Yixiao will inherit the great line in the future. Losing his status, he said angrily: "Bold, what a noble status King Su is, how can he..."

"Empress, Miss Xi Er also wants to make my father happy. As long as my father is happy, I am willing to play the piano and Xiao with Miss Xi Er." Before the queen finished speaking, Feng Yixiao interrupted her first. , and Feng Yixiao secretly winked at the queen.

Upon receiving Feng Yixiao's wink, the queen immediately changed her face, and regained her previous amiable look: "Since Su Wang agrees to play the piano and flute with you, then I have no objection."

"Thank you, empress, for your permission." Xi Zhuyan did not expect that Feng Yixiao would actually speak for her in this hall today, which made her feel happy and surprised, so she gave Feng Yixiao a shy look, And thanked the queen for her kindness.

In fact, Feng Yixiao didn't really want to play the piano and Xiao with Xi Zhuyan. In Feng Yixiao's eyes, nothing could compare to the high throne. He swept away Emperor Xuande's elegance by smoke, and made Emperor Xuande unhappy. Since he was born by the empress, he and the empress will be both prosperous and injurious. If the empress is rejected by Emperor Xuande, he will also be implicated , This is equal to his unfavorable thing, how could he allow him to happen.

At this time, in the palace, the palace people from Si Yue Bureau brought in a guqin and a jade flute.

The palace people handed over the Guqin and Yuxiao to Xi Zhuyan and Feng Yixiao, then stepped back and exited the hall respectfully.

Xi Zhuyan walked to the front of the Guqin and sat down slowly. A white gauze dress was poured on the ground, like a cluster of lotus flowers in full bloom. Feng Yixiao also walked down the hall, reaching out to take the jade flute from the palace servant.

Xi Zhuyan's ten jade fingers gently slid across the silky strings, the fingers floated lightly, and a series of melodious notes jumped out of the strings. At the same time, Feng Yixiao also held the jade flute close to his lips, In an instant in the hall, the sound of the zither sounds, the sound of the zither moves, the sound of the zither is melodious and soft, like the jingle of spring water, like the breeze blowing leaves, the sound of the zither like the orchid in the empty valley, like the clear spring in the mountain stream, the sound of the zither and the zither, lingering and blending together, converging It formed a melodious sound of silk, bamboo and wind music, and the two cooperated very well.

After about one stick of incense, the sound of the piano and flute stopped, and Xi Zhuyan and Feng Yixiao took their last moves.

"The ensemble of the qin and flute really fits seamlessly, Your Majesty, do you think so?" Before everyone had time to comment, the empress on the high seat spoke first. She not only praised her, but also turned her head to ask Emperor Xuande next to him.

How did the queen know that at this moment Emperor Xuande had no intention of listening to the piano and flute ensemble, but his eyes fell on the set of supreme beauties on Xi Zhuyan's bun.

Lovebirds, flying phoenixes, golden-winged butterflies, chaos in the world of mortals, winning the supreme, and returning to the world, Emperor Xuande silently chanted the legend about the supreme confidante in his heart.

Could it be that Xi Zhuyan from An Guohou's Mansion is the real Feng Xing, Emperor Xuande guessed in his heart, his brows were deeply furrowed, a little unpredictable.

When the queen mother saw that Emperor Xuande hadn't returned to the queen for a long time, it was a shameful thing for the mother of a country to be ignored by the emperor in front of all civil and military officials.

"The Ai family also thinks that King Su and Yan'er girl's piano and flute ensemble is wonderful." In order to ease the embarrassment of the empress, the queen mother praised it gracefully.

Xi Zhuyan didn't expect that after she played strenuously and had the courage to ask Su Wang to accompany her on the flute, Emperor Xuande would actually have such an expression, neither saying yes nor no, This made her a little disappointed, but she was very confident that the guqin piece she played was no worse than Luoqin's, and even worse than Luoqin's light songs.

"Girl Yan'er, the Queen Mother has praised you personally, so why don't you hurry up and thank you." The Queen Mother eased the Empress' embarrassment with a word, and the Empress also took advantage of the situation to turn her head back, and reminded Xi Zhuyan.

Although she was not praised by Emperor Xuande himself, she was recognized by the Queen Mother, which made up for the depressed and somewhat lost mood before Xi Zhuyan. She quickly thanked her and said, "Yan'er, thank you for your praise, and wish the Queen Mother good fortune." Longevity, jade body and gold safety."

The older people are, the more they like to hear such blessings, especially those who are noble in the royal family. Xi Zhuyan said these words of gratitude, which can be regarded as capturing the preferences of the Queen Mother.

"Okay, okay, okay." After hearing this, the queen mother was really satisfied. On the originally majestic Fengyan, there was a bit of old man's kindness, and she said three good things again and again.

Emperor Xuande stared at Xi Zhuyan deeply, and suddenly asked: "Girl Yan'er, what do you think is the most important thing as a woman?"

Emperor Xuande's question was a bit inexplicable, not only Xi Zhuyan felt a little baffled and didn't know how to answer, even the civil and military officials in the palace were a little puzzled, why the emperor would ask such a little girl who had just reached the age of ji.

These civil and military officials also included Xi Bojian. When Xi Zhuyan was asked such a question by Emperor Xuande, his heart was agitated, and there were fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He was deeply afraid that Xi Zhuyan would die for a while If you say something wrong, it will affect the whole family of An Guohou's house.

When the queen possessed herself and praised Feng Yixiao and Xi Zhuyan's piano and flute ensemble to Emperor Xuande, Emperor Xuande did not reply for a long time. To know how sensitive an emperor is, Xi Wanqing felt a little strange, so he glanced at it. Emperor Xuande glanced, and she happened to see Emperor Xuande's eyes fall on the supreme beauty on Xi Zhuyan's bun.

It seems that Emperor Xuande recognized the hair ornament on Xi Zhu's cigarette butt, which is the mysterious Supreme Confidante, and it seems that he is a little afraid of the legend about the Supreme Confidante. This old emperor is a bit strange. If she is afraid of the Supreme Confidante Legend has it that Xi Zhuyan was directly recruited into the palace to snatch the supreme confidante, so why did she also order an irrelevant person into the palace.

Xi Wanqing silently speculated about Emperor Xuande's intentions, but still couldn't figure out some clues.

Xi Zhuyan suddenly heard Emperor Xuande's question, and felt a little panic in her heart. She frowned, thought for a moment, and then carefully replied: "Back to the emperor, Yan'er believes that as a woman, you must follow the rules of women in everything you do. Be virtuous, be filial to your parents at home, be filial to your parents-in-law when you are married, and be considerate of your husband..."
