Return after the poison of rebirth

Chapter 61 Red Rose

The queen mother sitting in the middle seat raised the wine bottle in her hand, "Today is just a small banquet hosted by Ai's family. You don't need to be formal. Don't think that Ai's family is here to disturb your young people's interest. Every banquet only drinks and eats." The dishes are also boring, why not..."

The Queen Mother paused for a moment, frowning slightly, as if she was thinking of a small game to play, so as to arouse everyone's interest.

Fushun took a step forward and continued with a smile: "In the past, literati loved to compose poems by the water pool. They put a wine glass in the water pool, and whoever stopped the wine glass would compose an impromptu poem. 'Flowing cup of water'. The servant sees that the flowers in the imperial garden are blooming just right. Why don't you pick a flower and pass it on to each other, and order the luthier to play a tune. When the melody stops, whoever holds the flower will perform a show, which is not lost. Elegant spirit of flowing water. How do you feel about it, Empress Dowager?"

"It's exactly what the Ai family wanted. Playing the qin and passing flowers doesn't take much thought and effort, and it looks elegant." The queen mother nodded and praised, "That's it!"

A look of disappointment flashed across Liu Yunxi's face, but it was just passing on the drums, so there was nothing new in such an old-fashioned game.But this is an opportunity, maybe it will make her shine.The almond pupils were no longer as delicate as before, but eager to try.

And Liu Yunjin beside the queen mother just watched this scene indifferently, with a cold smile in his eyes.Sure enough, there is another picture, isn't it?A good little banquet does not eat or drink, and insists on letting people come out to perform.Do you want to make her a success, or do you want to destroy her?If you want to ruin her, you don't need to spend so much time sending such gorgeous clothes.Do you want to use the trick of flattery?With her phoenix eyes narrowed, Liu Yunjin thoughtfully looked at Eunuch Fushun who was slowly running over.

Eunuch Fushun's respect for her did not seem to be fake, and she couldn't figure out what the empress dowager really meant for a while.

"Queen Mother, this is the most beautiful peony in the imperial garden," Fushun sent a tray containing a pink-white peony flower.

Only peony is truly national, and only peony can be worthy of the supreme status of empress dowager.

"You've been paying more attention to things recently!" The Empress Dowager smiled, and stretched out her hand with a nail cover to caress the delicate petals of the peony flower, "Let's start now!"

"Yes!" Fushun replied, and brought a luthier holding a guqin from nowhere.

After saluting to everyone, the qin master sat down cross-legged, plucked the Guqin between his fingers, and melodious tunes slipped from the strings.

The queen mother turned sideways, handed the peony in her hand to Liu Yunjin, and said with a pleasant face, "The girl will start with you."

After Liu Yunjin took the peony, he passed it into the hands of the prince Murong Wu beside him. Unconsciously, the fingertips of the two touched slightly.

Frowning slightly, Liu Yunjin quickly withdrew his hand, while Murong Wu held the peony in his hand and was lost in thought for a moment.

The girl's fingers were tender and moist, as if they were high-quality jade.He couldn't help but want to hold it in the palm of his hand and never let go.

Murong Yu beside him watched this scene without any trace, seeing through the obsession in his brother's eyes.His fingers suddenly pinched the golden bottle in front of him, and the apex of his heart was pierced with pain like a thorn.

Could it be that elder brother also likes Liu Yunjin... For more than ten years, he had finally met a woman whom he fell in love with, and he was unwilling to let go.I can only compete with the prince's brother.

The peony was passed down, and the melodious sound of the piano came to an end.

Sure enough, just as the sound of the piano stopped, the Empress Dowager handed the peony flower to Liu Yunjin.

"Empress Dowager, is this trying to make Yun Jin show his shame?" She looked at the Empress Dowager shyly, with unexpected surprise on her face.But there was a half-smile in her eyes, she had long expected that this peony would be passed into her hands.

I don't know if it was carefully designed by someone, or it was an unintentional coincidence.

"Silly girl, this is an opportunity for you to show off, not to make you look ugly." The queen mother smiled lightly, stretched out her hand to caress the back of Liu Yunjin's hand, and signaled her to feel relieved, "Last time at the Ai family's birthday banquet, Ai's family I think your piano skills are good."

Qing Yao sat in the gazebo, afraid that the sun would burn her.Seeing the empress dowager's intimate appearance with Liu Yunjin, it was as if a thorn had been pierced in her eye, which made her restless in pain.What is Liu Yunjin!He even snatched her favor and her position.

People who didn't know thought that that cheap girl was the princess of the golden branch and jade leaf!And she was born as the princess of Dongling, so she couldn't accompany the queen mother, but sat in a far corner instead.

The anger in his eyes was about to burst out, and he pinched off the half-inch long nails on his hands.

The little eunuch behind him felt sorry for the half-inch white nails, and took a step forward to hold Qingluo's hand, "Princess, if you are angry, you should be angry, and you should take care of your body. Isn't it a pity that the good nails are broken like this. "

Qing Luo opened the little eunuch's hand mercilessly, and asked coldly, "Who is that bitch, and how does she deserve to sit beside the Queen Mother?"

The little eunuch glanced at the people around the queen mother, her eyes were as sharp as a knife, "She is the concubine of the Liu family, and she is the same sister as the lady next to the fourth prince. The person next to the fourth prince is the concubine daughter of the Liu family, and she is just a concubine .”

"The Liu family?" Princess Qingluo raised her slender eyebrows, like a towering hill, "It's just a fifth-rank official, no different from the ants in my hands. The daughters she gave birth to are more charming than the other. One is better at seducing people than the other. It is not enough for a fourth brother to be dazed by the concubine of the Liu family. Even the humble concubine has turned into a "phoenix" because of the favor of the emperor's grandmother. If this continues, how should this princess be herself? place?"

"No matter how much they are favored, their lives are worthless. How can they compare with you, the princess!" The eunuch hurriedly flattered.

Princess Qingluo's complexion did not improve because of his words, she only said coldly: "You don't need to say these useless things here! Tell me how to cure these two vixen. Seeing how the two of them are flourishing, Gong Gong wished he could cut off her eyes and tongue and make her into a human stick in the cesspit."

"Your Highness, please bear with me a little longer," the little eunuch persuaded softly, his eyes rolled, and a poisonous plot surfaced in his heart, with a cold light in his eyes, "One is the elder sister, the other is the younger sister. One is the prostitute daughter, and the other is the concubine daughter..."

The little eunuch seemed to have thought of something, smiled sinisterly, bent down and whispered in Princess Qingluo's ear: "In my servant's opinion, it's better to drive a wedge between the two sisters. Let the concubine deal with the concubine and tell them Wouldn't it be fun to fight in the nest!"

Where did the little eunuch think, even if there is no such strategy as alienation.The relationship between the two sisters is also incompatible.The poisonous plan he thought up was just pouring a spoonful of oil on the fire, and it had no other effect except to make the fire burn hotter.

After hearing his words, Princess Qingluo lay back comfortably, showing a knowing smile.

She may not be able to do other things, but she is the most proficient at chasing rumors and blaming others.You must know that she grew up in the palace since she was a child, she has heard all kinds of ugly words, and she has seen all kinds of vicious schemes.Knowing everything about the palace's competition for favor, isn't this little trick handy.

Seeing the smile on Princess Qingluo's face, the little eunuch finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to say something more.But was interrupted by Princess Qingluo.

"It's useless to talk too much, I have my own plan in my heart..." The corners of the eyes were slightly raised, and the flickering cold light was like the frost in late autumn.Cold to the bone.

"The princess is smart, so I don't need to talk too much," the little eunuch coldly cast a glance at the Liu family sisters, then walked slowly behind Princess Qingluo.
