Chapter 252
The emperor didn't seem to notice the undercurrent between the noble concubine and the queen.

When he faced the charming Concubine Cui Gui, his eyes were indifferent, and it was not much better when he faced the queen.

Soon, all the girls who wanted to perform signed up, wrote a note and put it in the box, and was hugged by the eunuch and placed in front of Concubine Cui.

The queen didn't seem to want to argue with her for a while, so she said dignifiedly, "Since it was suggested by Concubine Cui, then you should draw lots, what does the emperor think?"

The queen's appearance is slightly inferior to that of Concubine Cui, but the majesty and grace of the queen is what Concubine Cui does not have.

The emperor waved his hand, "Then the imperial concubine will draw."

Concubine Cui Gui secretly wrung the handkerchief, but her face remained calm. Thinking of what had been untied, she smiled softly, "The concubine will smoke it."

I saw her white wrist stretched into the box, hesitated for a moment and took out a ball of paper.

"There are quite a few people who want to perform." When Concubine Cui Gui was drawing lots, Mu Zhixu paid special attention to the unmarried girls sitting there.

"There are not a few who want to soar into the sky with their performances." Princess Changle lowered her voice and said something meaningful.

Mu Zhixu thought of Emperor Tai'an, who was an upright and mature man, and knew it in his heart.

Wealth and honor have been charming since ancient times, and so is power. Once elected to the king's side, the prosperity and wealth can be enjoyed endlessly from then on.

The two of them only dared to say such a sentence. There are too many people with mixed eyes, and it is not good to be heard by someone with a heart.

"The first one is Shiwan from the Lin Family of the Marquis of Cheng'en." Concubine Cui Gui opened the paper ball in her hand, a smile rippling from the corner of her mouth.

Marquis Cheng En is the queen's mother's family, and Lin Shiwan is the eldest daughter of the Lin family.

After Concubine Cui finished speaking, a bright-eyed woman stood up from the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion, and walked out to salute in a well-mannered manner, "My daughter, Lin Yiwan, pay my respects to the emperor and empress, ladies and gentlemen."

"Excuse me." The emperor raised his hand, and then he didn't speak.

Concubine Cui took it just right, "Miss Lin, what would you like to perform?"

There was a hint of malice in the depths of her eyes, but she also knew that this was a palace banquet, and all the ministers of the aristocratic families were present, so it was quite difficult for her to do anything under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Lin Yiwan said calmly, "My daughter knows a little bit about pipa."

"Come here, prepare the pipa." Concubine Cui Gui said to the person next to her.

Because the performance was to be performed, the musical instruments had been prepared long ago, and soon someone brought the pipa over.

The place in the middle where the dancers used to perform dances was empty at this time, Lin Shiwan walked over and sat down with her pipa in her arms.

The big strings are like a rain, and the small strings are cut like a whisper.

Cut the wrong bullets, and the big beads are falling into the jade plate.

Mu Zhixu's eyes lit up, this Lin Shiwan is too modest, how can he understand a little bit, is he really proficient?
Weeping and complaining, full of emotion.

Skills are not rare, what is rare is the soul injected into it.

A smile flashed in the eyes of the empress above. How could the eldest daughter of the Lin family who had been carefully raised by the first wife be easily laughed at?
She glanced at Concubine Cui Gui, and when she saw Concubine Cui Gui's ugly face, she instantly felt much happier.

After Lin Yiwan's performance, the emperor applauded, "Good, good, good!"

Three good words in a row are enough to prove the emperor's satisfaction.

Concubine Cui Gui was a little reluctant, but she still praised, "Miss Lin's pipa skills are really good. If nothing unexpected happens, both Yu Ruyi and Fengchai belong to Miss Lin."

Lin Yiwan bowed her head, and said softly, "The imperial concubine is too serious, the minister's trivial trick is really making a fool of herself."

These words made the faces of the ladies who hadn't performed yet look very bad.

If this is considered a trivial trick, some of them will not be able to do it.

"Tsk." Mu Zhixu looked at Lin Shiwan who was going down, and shook his head with a smile, arrogance.

Princess Changle took a sip of the clear fruit wine, "Lin Shiwan is not simple."

Mu Zhixu accepted her reminder, most people would not talk like this, she glanced at Princess Changle, "Who do you think Concubine Cui Gui is interested in today?"

She still doesn't know much about the power in the capital, which is not very good, the aristocratic family's dignitaries are intertwined, and the slightest carelessness will involve a lot of entanglements, so she must understand clearly.

"You'll know later." Princess Changle's eyes were full of meaning.

Mu Zhixu is not a person who asks the bottom line, she looked away, and then found that Gu Lin opposite was blinking at her.

Mu Zhixu...

"Sincerely!" Gu Lin's leader, Xia Houzheng, raised his eyebrows, "Restrain yourself."

Gu Lin didn't speak, but two words flashed across his face, 'I don't! '

Xia Houzheng...

Seeing the interaction between the two, Mu Zhixu lowered his head and pursed his lips, laughing uncontrollably.

"Princess Yaoguang thinks Miss Du's talent makes people laugh?" Concubine Cui Gui said suddenly.

The eyes of the other people in the hall all fell on Mu Zhixu.

Especially Ms. Du, who was performing in the middle, looked at Mu Zhixu with anger in her eyes, and Princess Yaoguang was actually laughing at her!

The smile on the corner of Mu Zhixu's mouth did not change at all. She turned her head to look at Concubine Cui, got up and said unhurriedly, "The imperial concubine is worrying too much, and the reason why I smile is because Miss Du is very good at playing the piano."

"Oh? Really? Then tell me, what song was Miss Du playing just now?" Concubine Cui looked at Mu Zhixu.

She didn't even notice the warning eyes of the queen and emperor next to her.

Mu Zhixu was sure now that this imperial concubine was hostile to her face.

After finally catching her fault, how could she let it go so easily?

Hearing the concubine's words, some people in the hall secretly laughed. Isn't this embarrassing Princess Yaoguang?
I'm afraid she doesn't even know how many strings there are?
Chang Le glanced at Mu Zhixu worriedly, and wanted to remind her in a low voice, but found that the concubine was staring at them.

"Pingsha Luoyan!" Mu Zhixu's clear voice sounded.

In full view, no one reminded her, did she really know?
Everyone in the hall was a little surprised.

Concubine Cui Guifei's eyes flickered, as if she saw someone who stood proudly back then, she ignored the emperor's warning, and said again, "Since Princess Yaoguang knows, how about you comment on Miss Du's piano skills?"

She has the same face as that woman, and is equally annoying.

review?

How could Mu Zhixu, a wild girl, have the qualifications to comment on her?Ms. Du's nose was crooked, she restrained herself and glared at Mu Zhixu a few times.

This is what Concubine Cui wanted.

Mu Zhixu stopped Gu Lin with his eyes, and then looked at Concubine Cui, "Since the imperial concubine asks, let me have a little talk with you."

The roll call was not for her to comment, but for the imperial concubine's request.

She glanced at Ms. Du, apparently she didn't think so, and blamed her.

Mu Zhixu shook his head in his heart, and said calmly, "Miss Du's skill in playing the piano is not bad, it can be called first-class..."

When Ms. Du's face softened a little, Mu Zhixu changed the subject and said, "However, like wild geese falling on the flat sand, the autumn is high, the wind is calm and the sand is flat, the clouds are thousands of miles away, and the sky is flying. With the lofty ambitions of the swans, it is written about the heart of a scholar." Also, the melody is melodious and smooth, and they sing in harmony with each other. Miss Du is playing on the guqin, and she should pay more attention to the rhythm and rhythm of the whole body, with three ups and downs..."
