The concubine is so charming

Chapter 43 Thank you so much
After entering the palace, Mu Zhenzhen has been paying attention to Gu Yuanyou.

It's a pity that Gu Yuanyou's gaze was either looking at the emperor on the throne, or in the direction of Su Yao, and he didn't notice her concern at all, which made her feel extremely disappointed.

The queen mother's words brought her back to her senses, thinking that the program she had practiced so hard could finally come in handy, and might even attract Gu Yuanyou's attention, so she couldn't help jumping a little bit: "Your Majesty, the courtier has shown her shame."

At the last banquet, Mu Zhenzhen played a song about beauty, although it was not shameful, but it also made people feel a bit petty.

But this time, when everyone saw Mu Zhenzhen walking into the hall after getting ready, they couldn't help showing amazement.

Mu Zhenzhen was holding the pipa in her arms, her hair was in a high bun and her eyes were bright.

She was tall and tall, and she was wearing a thin light golden dance dress at this time, which set her off even more slender.

Su Yao couldn't help but raise her eyes, amazed in her heart: I really can't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients.

At this time, Mu Zhenzhen's face was light, like a picture of a lady walking down from a Dunhuang mural, the golden dance dress flowed brilliantly, and the neck, waist, arms, ankles, and wrists were embellished with fine silver foil, which added to her beauty .

Mu Zhenzhen saluted calmly, then gently stretched her arms, and lifted the pipa to her chest.

Everyone was slightly stunned, seeing Mu Zhenzhen coming up with the pipa in her arms, everyone thought she was going to play the pipa, but after watching for a while, they found that no one lifted the seat, so they were a little puzzled.

Mu Zhenzhen raised her white wrist, her plain fingertips slashed across the string.

"Zheng!"

The sound of the pipa was originally more exciting than other musical instruments, but this opening sound shocked everyone, and they all focused on Mu Zhenzhen.

Mu Zhenzhen put her hands on the pipa, she started to dance while playing it.

The light golden shawl on her arm flowed gracefully with her movements, interspersed with golden flowers embroidered with gold thread, which could not be seen when she was standing still, but now she danced, the shawl swayed and the golden light shone like a The Milky Way surrounds her.

Seeing that the time had come, the court musicians played the sound of silk and bamboo.

Mu Zhenzhen raised her head high, the pipa in her hand suddenly turned from her shoulder to behind her, and then the other hand was thrown back, the pipa sounded again.

Bounce the lute!

Everyone couldn't help admiring that it was extremely difficult to dance while playing the pipa. After all, women lacked arm strength and the pipa was very heavy. It was a test of one's skills to play the melody well and dance beautifully, but Mu Zhen Zhen not only did it, but also bounced the pipa, which is really amazing!
Mu Zhenzhen panted slightly, raised the pipa in her hand, raised her left leg high, and made the last move, immediately greeted the applause of the whole hall: "Good!"

The Empress Dowager smiled strongly: "What does the Emperor think?"

"Okay, the pearl tassels are dazzling and the stars are shaking, and the flowers and tendrils are shaking like snakes. Come, let's reward Princess Pearl!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty." The joy in Mu Zhenzhen's heart could not be concealed. After saluting to the Emperor, she glanced at Gu Yuanyou from the corner of her eye, only to find that his expression was calm and did not show much surprise. The joy in her heart Immediately reduced by three points.

Su Yao, who had been observing Mu Zhenzhen, couldn't help but feel a little bit moved, could it be that the Pearl Princess actually likes Gu Yuanyou?No wonder she was so hostile towards him the first time we met. I thought it was because she was jealous of being favored by the queen mother, but now it seems that the root cause may still be her marriage contract with Gu Yuanyou.

Su Yao raised his eyes and looked at Gu Yuanyou's smiling expression, he couldn't help but raised the corners of his lips and nodded slightly.

The smile on Gu Yuanyou's face deepened, he raised his glass to signal Su Yao's direction, and then drank the wine in one gulp.

Mu Zhenzhen, who kept this scene in her eyes, felt tight in her chest. She didn't understand what was so good about that Su Yao, but it made Gu Yuanyou's eyes turn cold. I made a big fool of myself, and with an impulse in my heart, I said without thinking:
"Your Majesty, Sister Ninghua has also prepared a gift for you. Sister Ninghua, I've already attracted others, why don't you come forward soon?"

Su Yao stood up calmly, first saluted the emperor, then turned to Mu Zhenzhen and said, "Thank you, cousin Zhenzhen."

In order to keep it a secret, so as not to let Mu Zhenzhen know about their gift and cause trouble, she and Mu Zhaoyu have been hiding the news to death, and they are waiting for Mu Zhenzhen to make trouble today.

Mu Zhaoyu was worried at the time, saying that if Mu Zhenzhen didn't ask them to come forward to present gifts, wouldn't they have no chance.Su Yao was also worried for a while, but now it seems that the Pearl princess is really kind to them!
Mu Zhenzhen's eyebrows twitched, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes: "You and I are both good sisters, so there is nothing to thank for that."

"Yes, my sister has always taken care of me."

Mu Zhaoyu had already stepped forward, followed Su Yao to salute the emperor and queen mother, and went down to prepare.

It took a long time for the two of them to prepare, and the emperor was still a little interested, but now that no one came up for a long time, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

Old Ning Ge stood up: "Your Majesty, I heard that you got an auspicious stone some time ago. This stone can not only emit light at night, but also has natural stone patterns on it. When you connect it, it happens to be the four characters of prosperous age and Ankang?"

"That's true. It was offered by Binzhou. If Mr. Ning Ge is interested, he will go to Zangbao Pavilion after the banquet is over."

"A wise ruler in a prosperous age, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and auspiciousness will come to the world. It has been more than a hundred years since I have seen it. Veteran officials should take a good look at it."

"Of course it's fine."

With old Ning Ge's praise, the emperor's expression improved a bit.

After waiting for a while, Su Yao and Mu Zhaoyu were finally ready. The servants carried the tall blank screens and walked up to the hall, and then placed the screens in an arc shape in the center of the hall.

Someone took a closer look, this screen is not only extraordinarily tall, but also has wheels installed on the ground, what's the use of this?
The candlelight in the main hall dimmed a lot, but a bright light suddenly lit up inside the screen.

Mu Zhenzhen snorted coldly, with such a great deal of fanfare, if nothing comes out of it in the end, it will really make people laugh out loud!
Just when everyone was unaware, a graceful figure suddenly appeared on the central screen.

This silhouette is curvaceous, not wearing a skirt, but wearing trousers that are convenient for dancing. The warm yellowish candlelight is reflected on the silhouette, with a slender waist and arms like jade, and the flower hairpins dotted on the head and The long hair hanging down like a waterfall is unfortunately not very real through the screen, but it is inexplicably fascinating.

As the old saying goes, beauty is like a flower separated by clouds, the more hazy it is, the more it can arouse people's inner desire to explore.Everyone watched, and couldn't help but slightly widen their eyes, wanting to see the whole picture of the beauty behind the screen.

Suddenly drums and silver bells sounded.
