food queen

Chapter 375 Beg for a coincidence, unfortunately! (3)
"Then I'll wait." Yun Shuo said, raised his hand to pick up the wine glass, glanced at Han Qian with a half-smile, and drank the wine in the glass taking advantage of the empress's beautiful face.

There was a sound of a piano on the water, ding ding dong dong, elegant and supreme.

Everyone couldn't help but follow the prestige, but they saw a woman in plain clothes sitting casually in the blue water pavilion, her skirts fluttering, playing a kite in the wind, raising her hands with lowered eyebrows, faintly twitching, her fingertips twitching forward and backward.The sound seems to be rippling, the heart is trembling slightly, agile, and the strings are moving, but playing the song "Friends".

After playing it for the second time, a distant flute sound came.The orchestra is in harmony, the rhythm is in harmony, and the clarity is perfect.A smile flutters from the corner of the mouth, and the strings are played carefully, and played with the heart.

The sound of Shang is sad, the sound of horns is clear, the sound of strings is curling, and the sound of flute is faint. "Friends" is a song of bosom friends, the bright moon looks west, and the evening breeze is light.

With the last few plucked strings, the lingering sound curled up, echoing in the light rain.

Over there, more than a dozen talented scholars were either holding wine glasses and pondering, or shaking folding fans to think, or going to the table to write a penny, or standing aside to point and comment. Show off your splendor at the banquet.

"The dew is white and the wind is light and the rain is cool, and the lights are dim and the steps are wet on the west floor. I am alone, leaning on the slanting railing, recalling the shadow of the sunset in the Daijiang River. The fisherman's song sings lightly to the moon, and the lovesickness of the clouds is frivolous. Now the young man is graying, but he is confused. It's my hometown."

Wang Yunling, an attendant of the Imperial Academy, wrote a seven-character poem with his pen and traveled to Youlong. He threw away the pen, turned around and went to the musician to get a bamboo flute, and played it with his heart to the sound of the piano.

When the flute sounded, the piano sound couldn't help but feel a pause.Afterwards, she followed naturally, but was a little more lingering than before.

Han Qian glanced at Yun Shuo with a smile, and praised: "I didn't expect there to be such talented people in the Imperial Academy."

"This person's name is Wang Yunling, and he is the [-]th Jinshi on the top list this year. Such a ranking is nothing more than that. The most rare thing is that he has such an achievement when he was just a weaker champion. It is really not easy." Yun Shuo simply told Han Qian introduced.

"It turned out to be Wang Yunling. I knew this person before. It's just that I haven't seen him for a few years. I didn't expect him to change a lot." Han Qian moved closer to Yun Shuo's ear and whispered.

"Oh?" Yun Shuo's lazy eyes immediately turned sharp, "The queen also knows this person?"

"Yeah." Han Qian said with a smile, "A few years ago when I was traveling in the south of the Yangtze River, I met this person once."

Yun Shuo's face immediately turned ugly.

Han Qian smiled lightly and said, "At that time, he was just a scholar. His family had a few acres of Susukida and an old father. His father was a granary student, but he failed many times, so that his family fell into ruin. I know he has a woman he likes." , is a daughter from a rich family, but that family looked down on Wang Xiucai's poverty, so they cut off lovers."

"Oh." Yun Shuo took a sip of the wine, and felt that the mellow wine seemed to have a bit of sour taste, "The Queen really knows a lot."

"Twelve-year-old talents are rare. This Wang Yunling is indeed a man full of talent and ambition." Han Qian lightly smiled and picked up the jug to pour wine for Yun Shuo, "I want to congratulate Your Majesty for being such a talented person."

"Thank you queen." Yun Shuo said sourly.

Han Qian laughed, but didn't say any more.

The ensemble of qin and flute, a bosom friend came to the end, gradually stopped, but the lingering sound lingered in the ears, the Liufang stage was quiet, and everyone was immersed in the sound and couldn't extricate themselves.

Yun Shuo applauded first, and the sporadic applause was particularly abrupt.Then, everyone echoed and applauded, and there was an uproar above Liufang Terrace.

Sun Defu flicked the Buddha dust in his hand, and said loudly: "The granddaughter of Ziyun Sheren, Gu Ningshuang, a daughter of the Gu family in the south of the Yangtze River, has outstanding piano skills and outstanding talents. The queen empress specially rewards a pair of jade hairpins and a pair of exquisite jade pendants. Miss Gu Ningshuang thank you Empress reward!"

Gu Ningshuang stood up slowly on the water pavilion, bowed to the empress Yingying on the Liufang platform, and said in a loud voice: "Little girl Gu Ningshuang thanked the empress for her reward, and thanked her majesty for her kindness."

"Wang Yunling, an attendant of the Imperial Academy, has a brilliant literary talent, and the melody of his poems is excellent. The empress gave a special reward of pearls. Wang Yunling, a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, thanked the empress for the reward!"

Wang Yunling hurriedly put on his clothes and stepped forward, bowing respectfully to the empress: "My minister, Wang Yunling, thank you, the empress, for your reward!"

Han Qian raised her hand with a smile, and said loudly, "Get up. Now let's see how this Qianqiao is doing with the needle?"

"Wei Xiyue, the head of Rong'an County, has eight roots." The servant reported loudly.

"Master Han Jin of Rongjing County, Jiugen."

"Miss Xiao Lianqing, the Marquis of Jinghai, Jiugen."

"Su Lan, owner of Changhua County in Dingbei Houfu, ten roots."

The results of more than a dozen famous ladies and noble ladies were reported one by one, and it turned out that Su Lan, the eldest daughter of Dingbeihou, took the lead.

"Master Su of the Marquis of Dingbei is indeed virtuous, and the female workers are good at stitching. Thank you." Han Qian said with a faint smile.

"Reward——Su Lan, princess of the Dingbei Houfu, a pair of jade hairpins, and a string of pearls." Sun Defu shouted loudly, "Su Lan, the princess of the Dingbeihoufu, thank you, Empress, for rewarding me!"

Su Lan got up gracefully, straightened the clothes leader's mouth, and after leaving her seat, she bowed down to the emperor, "I thank the empress for the reward."

"Get up." Han Qian slightly raised his hand, "The next step is the second item, knotting the fan pendant. If the knot is good, not only will the palace reward you, but you will also be allowed to pick one of the poems of some talents to take back. "

This is naked pulling the red line.

All of a sudden, the famous ladies bowed their heads shyly, while the talented scholars of the Hanlin Academy were all eager to try.They each think about which famous lady opposite their poems will be selected, and they will form a good relationship and pass on a good story for a lifetime.

However, Wang Yunling was not among the eager crowd.

Yun Shuo didn't pay attention at first, but after drinking two glasses of wine, he took a casual glance and found that he was the only one missing in the group of people over there.So he looked back at Han Qian, and asked lightly: "If someone leaves the banquet without reason, will the Empress be punished?"

"It depends on what's going on." Han Qian chuckled lightly.

Yun Shuo smiled lightly and didn't ask any more questions.

At this time, without thinking about it, Wang Yunling must have gone to a secluded place to meet beautiful women, because Yun Shuo glanced at the west stage, but he didn't see Gu Ningshuang who had just moved everyone with the song "Friends".

Anyway, Han Qian actually knew Wang Yunling, this matter is enough for His Majesty to drink a jar of jealousy, besides, when Han Qian met Wang Yunling when he was traveling in the south of the Yangtze River with Mu Yao, this jar is old. The more mellow the vinegar is.

"I'm going to change clothes." Yun Shuo stood up with a cold face, and went to the back.

Han Qian smiled lightly, and decided not to be as knowledgeable as the angry emperor—the Qiqiao Banquet is a state banquet after all, and the emperor and empress cannot all leave the banquet and leave this group of people to get angry.

Thinking of this, Han Qian suddenly felt that she was becoming more and more like a good queen—well, if you want to be a mother, you can't lose your temper like someone else.
