My concubine is so good at curling

Chapter 37 Contemporaneous Competition
After the emperor returned to Qiankun Palace, he issued an oral order.

Because there are a lot of people who want to perform on the Longevity Festival—the first emperor liked grand ostentation, and during the Wanshou Festival, there were endless dances and dances by the artists in the teaching workshops, and even folk Peking opera troupes would come to Beijing to perform celebratory performances. Peripheral performances for guests to watch.The concubine's performance is exclusive to the emperor, and it can be enjoyed by the family members of the imperial family and ministers with the honor of the Longevity Festival. It is impossible to show it to the guests alone, and there is no distinction between primary and secondary.

Concubines performing performances to celebrate the emperor's birthday are better than entertaining people's skills, so concubines who do not want to perform in front of people can present to the emperor alone before the Longevity Festival, and just register with Manager Liang.In the past few days, he will not turn over his cards, and respond to the wishes of everyone in the harem.

As a result, the minds of some concubines became lively again.

Offer it alone.

Isn't it an opportunity to meet Shengyan?

Those who originally wanted to give gifts also added other performances besides giving gifts. Those who can enter the palace are all sons of good families, no matter how poor they are, they are also wealthy daughters. There is always something that can be played.

After Chen promised that this matter was caused by him, he stamped his feet: "I am ashamed as long as I am ashamed, and it's not like I have never been embarrassed. How can I take advantage of them and give them a chance to show their face and compete for favor in front of the emperor for nothing."

Jiang Xian was surprised: "I didn't know you had such a deep obsession with the holy grace."

"The more favored you are, the better my life will be. Besides, I'm not afraid of being favored." As the bottom of the harem, Chen promised to have her own set of reasons: "Anyway, I'm not favored."

Jiang Xian laughed. Seeing that Chen Xuying was still angry, she nodded, "I'm not afraid to compare myself with other people. The more they want to spend their time on performing arts, the more they follow my way."

When it comes to gift giving, Jiang Xian is really no match for others.

She is poor and white, and her regular visits are pitifully small. Her current palace expenses are all dependent on the silver taels bestowed by the emperor to make her look richer, and the share she got from letting the Yizhuxuan palace people sell information this time... the money is loose Well, it can't be compared with those masters whose natal families are in the middle of the capital and who can sneakily send money.

"What I'm afraid of is not that other people perform, but that others don't perform."

Mian Xia was puzzled: "If everyone did the same thing, wouldn't the young master be special?"

He Xiang next to Chen promised, but said: "Shu's dance is different from other people's. Even a servant who has no experience can see the extraordinary in it. These days, other concubines go to perform to the emperor, and the things they bring out are different. If it is ordinary, it will become a green leaf to set off Shu Changzai, and if there are occasional novelty, it will make the emperor look forward to a performance that can make Shu Changzai full of confidence."

Hearing this analysis, Jiang Xian looked over with admiration.

That's exactly what she thought.

In her previous life, the company she worked in used the form of internal competition the most, setting up two small studios or forming a group to produce products on the same track, and compete with each other. The winner gets more resources, and the loser is eliminated.

Roll King is not afraid of comparison.

Just like Xueba likes difficult papers, because the difficulty is high, and the real gold can be sifted out by the big waves washing the sand.

At the same time, there was a snow appreciation feast in the imperial garden, hosted by Lu Ronghua, who invited the concubine who was close to him to a gathering, and heard the news.

A bit of joy rose on Lu Ronghua's face first.

She played the qin well, and if she performed in advance, if she worked harder, she might be able to keep the emperor behind after playing a piece.

Guo Guiren's expression was indifferent: "The emperor not long ago called Shu Chang to accompany him to enjoy the snow. It seems to be her idea."

"I'm not good at skills, and I didn't want to lose face at the Wanshou Festival banquet, so I had to resort to tricks," Tao Cairen echoed Guo Guiren's words, and smiled: "It's just a chance for all the sisters to show off their talents in front of the emperor."

Hearing the latter sentence, everyone's expression froze.

Lu Ronghua didn't want to talk too much about the content of the performance, so as not to be spied on. She would rather sarcasm Yizhuxuan who is in favor: "Serving people with color, and love when many colors decline, is not a long-term strategy."

"I heard that the female master who taught Yizhuxuan dance was asked by Yizhuxuan on his own initiative. I didn't expect it," Feng Liangyuan covered her lips and smiled delicately: "This dance can't be accomplished in a day or two. Before entering the palace, the concubine had heard about Sister Ronghua's excellent poetry and qin, how can others catch up to her in a short time."

Lu Ronghua was a little happy when he heard it: "It's just a false name. It's more peaceful to practice piano and recite poems not to please people. It's a pity this time. If any sister can perform a dance to let the emperor know that there are concubines who are good at dancing in the harem, then it will be better." It's excellent."

It would be best for someone to compare Shu Changzai.

In fact, how big a storm can a Changzai stir up?Not to mention that Chang Zai is a poor family with a weak natal family. They are not in a hurry to get rid of her. After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the emperor is warm to Shu Chang Zai—this oral instruction is the emperor's clumsy way of doing things for Shu Chang Zai. Her dancing skills are covering, she really is a vixen with a face.

Having said that, you should still be angry.

They had been in the palace for a long time, but they were suppressed by a constant presence!
Lu Ronghua hoped that the person who could compare Shu Changzai was himself.

It's a pity that since she was young and delicate, she couldn't bear the pain of learning to dance.

At this time, Guo Guiren said: "The concubine is going to dance "Neon Clothes and Feather Dress Dance" on the Longevity Festival."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone's surprised eyes fell on her.

He just said that!
She looked even more proud: "If there are sisters who want to dance the same dance as Chen Qie, Chen Qie doesn't mind."

Seeing the self-confidence on Guo Guiren's face, everyone present knew that she must be good at dancing, she was very confident, and she was not afraid of others to imitate her.

"Listen to what you said, I'm starting to look forward to Guo Guiren's dance performance." Lu Ronghua looked at her and said with a smile, "Good clothes are a must for a dance performance, and there are fine Fuguang brocades in my palace... It's a pity that the days are a little bit longer." Hurry up, I can't make new dance clothes, if there is a shortage of jewelry, come to me."

"Then I would like to thank Sister Ronghua for her kindness."

Guo Guiren stood up and blessed her body to show her affection.

She is not short of money, and she can't afford to borrow jewelry from others.

When Lu Ronghua said this, he also knew that she would not really come to borrow from him, but just express an attitude——

They are on the same front when it comes to combating Shu Chang's arrogance.

In the Snow Appreciation Pavilion in the Royal Garden, there is a charcoal fire next to it, warm and smiling.

At first glance, it looks very peaceful.

After returning to Zhongcui Palace, the maid showed doubts: "Just now, why did the young master tell the talent to be performed? The other empresses are strictly guarding against it, for fear that others will learn it."

"If you want to learn, learn."

Coming back from the snow feast, Guo Guiren's exquisitely made-up face showed hatred: "I want Mrs. Jiang to have trouble sleeping and eating, and live under the haze of being afraid of being compared to me. Want to learn? Then let them learn!" "

In terms of genuine confidence, she and Jiang Xian are actually similar.

Guo Guiren has practiced dancing since he was a child, both as a hobby and as an intentional arrangement of his family.A woman who is going to be sent to the palace must have some talent, and it is not necessary to be the head of the house of an ordinary official family: "I didn't mention it to the emperor before, because I want the life in the palace to flow smoothly, and I will shake all the meeting at once. Come out, there will be no bottom of the box in the future..."

She originally thought that after the first servant went to bed, the emperor would treat her tenderly for a few days.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xian intercepted him first.

She hates Jiang Xian, who joined the job at the same time, more than her superior, who has been in a high position for a long time.

Guo Guiren took a deep breath and comforted himself: "Fortunately, my parents raised me since I was a child... Now I feel more at ease, otherwise, like Jiang Shi, who has no talent and no virtue, and has no face, I can only give up my face and beg the emperor to go , no matter how favored it is, it's a joke!"

The Wanshou Festival lasted for several days, and even the capital city was adorned with festive lights and festoons.

Because of the emperor's oral order, there are quite a few concubines who went to perform.

Most of them are newcomers.

It's a pity that there were many people who went, so none of them were turned over. The emperor's indifferent eyes swept over them. The newcomers who rarely had the chance to face the saint couldn't help shaking, and their performances were also very mediocre.

Among them, the one who rarely made the emperor smile was Chen promised.

After she finished dancing, the emperor said, "I once thought that you and Shu are always on good terms, even if your dance is mediocre, I should reward you with something."

Liang Yuyin at the side could hear that the emperor was holding back a burden and was about to betray him.

Manager Liang made a good guess.

The second half of the emperor's promise to Chen was: After watching your dance now, because you and Shu Chang have a good relationship, I will not punish you.

There is no other reason, the dance is too funny!

Don't talk about the same hands and feet, and they are not on the beat at all.

Unexpectedly, Chen promised not to understand the subtext of the emperor, she happily saluted and thanked her: "The concubine received the emperor's reward through sister Shu's light last time, and I am very grateful, thank you for the emperor's kindness!"

"..."

A sincere thank you put the emperor's burden back.
