Chapter 54

The servant girl was so frightened that she almost fell to the ground.

She took a few steps back and looked at Yu Qingyang pitifully, but Yu Qingyang's eyes were so cold and heartless.

"You, come here." Yu Qingyang called out to the accompanying guards, and whispered: "Hurry up and secretly take this woman out of the palace, and then..."

"Yes."

Xiao Sesu glanced at Yu Qingyang, knowing that he was going to silence the servant girl.Such an intimate relationship with the person next to him is pitiful, and he still kills as soon as he comes here.

Xiao Sesser rinsed his pen, dipped in full blood, and almost spilled it on the rice paper.

The dripping bright red color frightened everyone and touched Yu Wangyan deeply.

He originally watched Xiao Sese's painting with worry and responsibility, but at this moment, he really wanted to ask: Sese, what kind of person are you?

Why is it so tragic when it is clearly delicate and beautiful.

Why is Ming Ming young, but hides a vicissitudes of life?
The blood-stained snow-white rice paper, the dark and light ink colors traced earlier, are connected by blood to form clusters of flowers and leaves.

The blooming peonies took shape, as if blooming on the snow, red and white, shocking the eyeballs.

The second stick of incense burned to the end.

The father-in-law of Jiaolan Temple announced the end of the competition.

Xiao Sesu put down her brush and asked the maids to come forward and show her paintings to Emperor Tianying and everyone.

All five paintings are displayed, lined up together.

Zhang Jinlan only used ink to paint black and white peonies in different layers, with a total of more than ten layers, and the concentration was extremely mastered.

Both Zhao Fangyan and Xiao Zui chose the technique of line drawing, outlining the lines so as to be lifelike.

Yupo is mixing Koudan on the nails into the paint, and a light cinnabar-colored peony appears on the paper.

Only bleak, the painting is as thick as blood, and the three colors of black, white and red are gorgeous and tragic, which is the most fascinating.

Emperor Tianying asked officials from the Ministry of Rites who were good at painting and calligraphy to evaluate the paintings. The officials looked at each painting carefully and were about to say something when they suddenly saw Xiao Zui shaking and Yu Po hurriedly supported her.

"Miss Xiao San?"

Xiao Zui frowned, then retched.

Such a turn of events stunned all the ceremony officials, everyone had all kinds of expressions, Xiao Ke was so angry that he wished he could slap Xiao Zui on the face.

This daughter who insulted the family style actually chose to be displeased at this time!
"Third sister." Xiao Sesu threw the brush back to the table and walked towards Xiao Zui.

"Miss Si, Empress Yupo, I'm fine..." Xiao Zui said, retching again, his body limp and unable to stand up.

During the banquet, Yu Qingxuan glanced at Yu Qinghan who was coughing, and smiled evilly: "How is it, old six, do you feel distressed?"

"Cough, cough cough..." Yu Qinghan coughed continuously.

"Lao Liu, I advise you to know how to make choices."

"Ahem... listen to my second brother."

Seeing that Xiao Zui was getting more and more happy, Yu Po said: "Father, my servant will send Miss Xiao San to rest."

"Are you going in person?" Emperor Tianying questioned.

Yu Po smiled generously and replied: "Father, please don't worry, I will retire with Miss Xiao San first."

Emperor Tianying felt a little strange, but still waved his sleeves and didn't ask any more questions, "Since you insist, then you can go."

"Your servant will leave." Yu Po supported Xiao Zui to retreat, and said in a low voice: "Miss Xiao San, take it easy, you will feel much more comfortable when the medical lady comes to see you."

Right now, there are two fewer female relatives among the five contestants, Xiao Sesu was worried about Xiao Zui, and felt that the Jade Soul Empress was not right.

Yupo Emperor Ji also participated in the rescue of the third sister by the river, why is she so enthusiastic about the third sister?

Seeing this, the ceremonial officials couldn't comment on the painting anymore. The remaining three paintings have different techniques and each has its own merits. It's better to make the words ambiguous and let everyone experience it for themselves.

After painting this scene, I naturally had to rest for a while.

Xiao Sesu returned to her seat, Yu Wangyan poured hot tea for her, and picked out some of her favorite pastries for her.

Xiao Shui drank the tea, and the warmth flowed into the stomach.

She murmured: "The painting just now made the prince laugh."

Yu Wangyan was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Do you have a grudge against that palace maid?"

Xiao Sesu was taken aback, Yu Wangyan said that he could actually observe her strangeness?
She nodded, "That person...is the maidservant of the Prince's Mansion. She bullied sister Jinse before, and she was always making trouble just now. She doesn't want me to paint."

Yu Wang remained silent, staring at the bleak and peaceful face.She really is a person who can clearly distinguish between love and hate. She has revenge for revenge and kindness for kindness. She is kind-hearted but never weak. She is quiet and gentle, and sometimes cold-faced and cruel.

For no reason, he felt that she must have experienced something, and most of it was bad.

Half a quarter later, the second match began.

In the second round of instrumental music, the three female relatives can choose freely.

First it was Zhao Fangyan, she chose Qin.

The Qin is ancient, contains the wind of pines in the myriad valleys, has deep meaning and is difficult to play.

Zhao Fangyan's qin music has the taste of respecting ghosts and gods. The sound of the qin is curling, and he is in awe of the heaven and earth. He feels very special when he listens to it. At the same time, he also observed that Zhao Fangyan was frowning from the beginning.

Ten fingers plucked the strings, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and Zhao Fangyan looked out of the window. It was already dark, and the night sky was full of stars, and there was a star in it...

Boom.

The string broke, and everyone gasped in shock.

But Zhao Fangyan didn't care about the piano in his hand, still staring at Xingzi outside the window, his face became more fearful and worried.

"Wang Yan, what happened?" Prime Minister Zhao Zuo hurriedly asked.

Only then did Zhao Fangyan come back to his senses, looked at the bleeding fingers strangled by the strings, and got up to salute Emperor Tianying.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty and all the empresses. My daughter's old illness has relapsed and she is not feeling well. I'm afraid it will be impossible to compare."

Everyone was stunned, why did something unexpected happen again?

Emperor Tianying said: "Your body is important, go down and rest. Zhao Aiqing, you have to take good care of your precious granddaughter, I think she is very good."

Concubine Zhao said: "Fang Yan has both beauty and art. In fact, the concubine and the queen's sister have discussed it in private, and they want to make Fang Yan and the crown prince a pair."

Let Zhao Fangyan be the crown princess, this is what the Huyang Zhao family couldn't wish for.

Emperor Tianying was afraid of the Zhao family's power, so he had no way to disagree. Unexpectedly, Zhao Fangyan's face turned cold, and he said, "Return to the empress, my daughter already has a sweetheart."

Empress Zhao and Concubine Zhao were instantly displeased.

Prime Minister Zhao Zuo said: "My little daughter's family doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, so how can you do whatever you want in matters of marriage?"

Zhao Fangyan bit his lips and said, "My daughter...he won't marry unless he does. If he doesn't want my daughter, my daughter would rather be alone."

This was another breaking news, and everyone couldn't help guessing in their hearts what kind of man Zhao Fangyan could identify with all his heart.

Prime Minister Zhao Zuo's old face was already scalded, contrasted by the pride on Xiao Ke's face.

So what if the Zhao family stepped on the Xiao family everywhere?Now that the Zhao family's granddaughter has retired from the competition and still doesn't pay the bills of the elders, it's embarrassing for them.

just rustling...

Xiao Ke was a little suspicious, looking at Xiao Sesel, thinking about the shocking scene where she borrowed blood to paint, suddenly thought of something.

Now only Zhang Jinlan and Xiao Sesu are left to compete.

Xiao Sesu was a little concerned about Zhao Fangyan's sudden retirement.

Zhao Fangyan was absent-minded today, and he was looking out the window when he was playing the piano just now.What did she see?Why did he suddenly make such an abnormal move?

Keeping this in mind, Xiao Sesu looked at Yu Qingyang and Zhang Jinlan.

Yu Qingyang felt that Xiao Sesu was lucky in this match, and now she and Jin Lan were left to fight one-on-one, and Jin Lan would definitely defeat her miserably.

And Xiao Sesu stared at Yu Qingyang and Zhang Jinlan, with thin flames burning in the bottom of his eyes, which was cold and deadly.

She won't show mercy, she wants Zhang Jinlan to return home in defeat!

"Princess Jin, will you come first or should I come first?" Zhang Jinlan asked.

"You go first." Xiao Sesu smirked.

"Okay, then I'll come first." The bleak humility caught Zhang Jinlan's arms, and she wanted to overwhelm this fool with one blow and express her anger for His Royal Highness.

According to Zhang Jinlan's request, the palace maids carried a zither.

Zheng, this lively and entertaining musical instrument is really suitable for sister Jinlan.

Xiao Sesu just watched her play the strings and play the music. The clear and clear music was mixed with entertaining luxury, and her skillful skills made everyone amazed.

After playing a song, Zhang Jinlan seemed to stand up, but suddenly covered his palm, frowned and murmured: "Your Majesty, the Chongming bird in my servant's palm hurts..."

Yu Qingyang hurried forward, held Zhang Jinlan's hand, and opened her palm. The Chongming bird in her palm was really shining with golden light, but it gradually calmed down due to Yu Qingyang's touch.

The officials of the princeling party immediately said: "The Chongming bird has appeared, it seems that we have identified His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Concubine Zhao also said: "Prince, hurry up and help Jinlan go to rest, there is another game ahead."

"Your servant obeys, father, I will help Jinlan to rest first."

Emperor Tianying nodded, sure.

Under the envious eyes of everyone, Zhang Jinlan returned to his seat with a somewhat exhausted expression, staring at Yu Qingyang affectionately.

Originally, they were not married yet, so they shouldn't be doing this in public, but since the incident of beating the Chongming bird was exposed, and the reappearance of the Chongming bird just now, many ministers even felt that Zhang Jinlan's marriage to Yu Qingyang was destined.

Xiao Sesu sneered silently, Chongming bird?God?She thought from the beginning to the end that someone was playing tricks!
"It's Princess Jin's turn." Yu Qingyun kindly reminded, "What instrument does Princess Jin want to play?"

"No, I have it." Xiao Sesu ran out with a smirk, and took out her insect flute.

"This is my instrument, Your Majesty, don't you think it is very beautiful?"

Emperor Tianying was startled and laughed twice.

Concubine Zhao urged: "Please hurry up and try."

"Yes." Xiao Sesu glanced at Concubine Zhao, who was not only impatient, but also too conceited.

Putting the insect flute to her lips, Xiao Sesu closed her eyes and began to play.

The ancient melody arrangement of Xiang Kingdom was unfamiliar to Dayao, but the ethereal and mysterious relics of the ancient times also had their magical appeal.

Everyone just felt a little sinking, and couldn't tell where the magic power of this music came from for a while, but it seemed that it could really captivate the soul and make people fall deeply.

Only Concubine Zhao said disdainfully: "In fact, the skills are just average."

Emperor Tianying gave her a displeased look.

Concubine Zhao was embarrassed, a little resentful.In her opinion, a skill like Xiao Sesu's was no match for Jin Lan at all.

But Concubine Zhao was wrong, and even many people were wrong.

Because they saw butterflies.
