After I was reborn, I became the queen mother by fortune telling

Chapter 36 Who Plays First?
After hearing this, the queen mother suddenly remembered, looked at Concubine Qiong who was sitting on the side, and said: "Concubine Qiong has praised Ai's family many times, saying that Xu Meiren's zither is very good, and I am going to appreciate it today. "

She looked at Jiang Yu who was standing below, and said with a smile: "It's just that Jiang Guiren also has such a talent, but the Ai family has never heard of it."

At this moment, Xu Meijun came in with her kite in her arms, and after she finished her salute, she stood reservedly.

"Which of you two will come first?" the queen mother asked with great interest.

Concubine Qiong has not heard about Jiang Yu's detailed deeds from Xu Meijun and Qing'er, she only hopes that her cousin and niece can shine brightly.

"Meijun, do you want to play first or second?" In order for Xu Meijun to take the initiative, Concubine Qiong asked first, so that Xu Meijun could choose the order she liked.

The first thing Xu Meijun saw was the plate of tamales on the table in front of the emperor.

She saw it outside just now, the queen mother accepted the dish with a smile, and gave it to the emperor.

The same is the dishes, the dishes made with the high-grade ingredients carefully prepared by Mr. Chang, the queen mother and the emperor don't like them.

Xu Meijun really couldn't figure it out.

Now Concubine Qiong asked herself whether to play first or later, she wanted to say play first, but she couldn't hold back, no matter how bad she was, she couldn't be worse than this country bumpkin, right?
"Courtesy and concubines are fine, sister Jiang decides!" She said haughtily.

Concubine Qiong didn't care too much, she had confidence in Xu Meijun.

The queen mother found it interesting, and seeing Jiang Yu groaning silently, she said to Jiang Yu, "Jiang Guiren, just speak with confidence."

He also said to the imperial concubine and concubine De who had never spoken: "You guys also make a judgment, and tell me who you think plays the zither better."

Naturally, Jiang Yu wanted Xu Meijun to play first, so that she could decide to what level she wanted to develop her skills. It didn't need to be too high, just a little bit better than Xu Meijun, just beat her.

"Empress Dowager, my concubine dare not play before Sister Xu, please ask Sister Xu to play first." She smiled slightly.

Xu Meijun listened to her humility, and it was exactly what she wanted.

After he finished playing, maybe this country bumpkin didn't have the guts to play, so he just knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Since sister Jiang said so, then the concubine will come first."

Someone had already brought the long case and chairs, Xu Meijun untied the cover, and carefully placed the precious zither on the long case.

She fiddled a few times, adjusted the tuning, and began to play.

While listening, Jiang Yu tied the armor piece sent by the maid to her finger.

In all fairness, Xu Meijun's playing is quite satisfactory, not bad.

Even for her age, she was skilled.

She should have practiced this piece of "Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" for a long time.

The zither sound stopped, and everyone was amazed.

"Mei Jun's zither is really unique!" Concubine Qiong was the first to praise, "Empress Dowager, don't you think so?"

Jiang Yu thought to herself, Concubine Qiong is really an old fox!
If the queen mother said "yes", it would be tantamount to agreeing to Xu Meijun.

If you say "no", it would be unreasonable to refute Concubine Qiong's face face to face.

Luo Wanzhi, who was sitting on the footrest under the queen mother's feet, interrupted suddenly: "Sister Qiongfei, sister Xu played the zither well, but we'd better wait for sister Jiang to finish playing, and then it's not too late to ask the queen mother to judge her!"

As soon as the words came out, the Queen Mother smiled and patted her on the shoulder: "What Luo Guiren said is exactly."
