Playful Queen

Chapter 47

After everyone was seated, the graceful dancers flicked their long cloud sleeves and danced and sang one after another. Soon, the laughter expanded, and the whole venue was very lively.

Under the resplendent lights, Zi Yechen on the dragon throne had a pleasant expression on his face, and the ferocious dragon claws of the embroidered golden dragon were incomparably dignified. He raised the wine glass in his hand, and said with a deep voice to his lips: "I respect all the soldiers! !"

The rim of the cup was sipped, and everyone drank it in one gulp, and everyone immediately raised their glasses together, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Singers, dancers, and handymen all gave amazing performances, which made all the officials and soldiers in the audience laugh and laugh, and it continued.

"The banquet was very well organized, Yun'er has a heart." Zi Yechen praised with a smile on his face.

With a beautiful smile on her beautiful face, Concubine Yun slowly opened her mouth and said modestly: "This is not due to the concubine alone. The concubine first came to the palace and didn't understand anything. It all depends on Concubine Hui and the empress."

What does this have to do with her, Mengli groaned in her heart, she didn't care for her to speak good words for her at all!
The corner of Mengli's mouth curled into an indifferent smile, and she remained silent.

At this time, Yun Xi said again: "Your Majesty, my concubine has prepared a program for the soldiers."

"Oh? Why didn't I know?" Zi Yechen raised his handsome eyebrows and asked.

Yun Xi smiled softly, stood up, walked lightly towards the lotus steps and left the banquet table. With Xiaoyu's support, Yun Xi changed into a light and bright red dress, stood on the drum with bare snow-white feet, her face Like a spring peach, with a skin like snow, her long sleeves looked very charming. She blessed the people in the audience softly, "The concubine dances a triumphant return and presents it to all the soldiers."

Boom!With a kick of snow-white foot, the strength was just right, and there was a loud drum sound.

bang bang bang...

The feet alternately kicked on the drum surface, making different rhythms, ups and downs, and the melodious drum sound was long and short. With the crisp drum sound, Yun Xi danced her body lightly like a flying swallow.The soft body embodies the thrilling dancing posture, and the drums fluctuate accordingly, sometimes softly and sometimes vigorously.

The black and shiny hair danced with the swing of the body, and it was so beautiful that it was fascinating.

Qianqianyu held the drumstick in her hand, and in the swing of her dancing posture, she knocked on the surrounding drums. Every rhythm was exciting, with the softness of flowing clouds and flowing water, and the ambition to go through the battlefield...

At this time, the colorful stripes flying all over the sky made the surrounding psychedelic and beautiful, and everyone in the audience was shocked by it.

There was a proud smile on the corner of Yun Xi's mouth, her watery eyes fell on Zi Yechen, and then she looked at Mengli next to him, but there was a glint of complacency in her eyes, the last time the Queen Mother's birthday let Mengli rob her. The limelight, this time she learned the dance with all her heart, just for this banquet.

It seems that this Yunxi is quite energetic, but this dance really amazed Mengli, and looking at the people present, they were all intoxicated, if they were not shocked by it, then they could only drink quietly King Duan, with a handsome body wrapped in black and gold brocade clothes, his brows and eyes seem to be blended with the aura of a demon, and the domineering arrogance carries the arrogance to the bone. With just a sweep of his star eyes, his slender fingers hold a green Qinglongfeng wine cup.

Although he was also looking at Yun Xi at this time, his eyes were mixed with a lot of emotions, an indescribable look, but he was by no means deeply immersed in it like everyone else.

On the contrary, she saw that she was staring at him, frowned, and her face was even more serious. When she saw that he was about to turn her head, Mengli quickly retracted her eyes, flustered like a child who had done something bad.

The sound of the drums and the dance ended perfectly, and Xiaoyu came back to her seat with the support of Concubine Yun.

"It's wonderful that this dance is coming back in triumph!"

"Concubine Yun, this song has the courage to go through the battlefield and kill all directions. I will admire it in the end. I will toast to Concubine Yun!" General Leng Xingyi toasted, followed by the soldiers who were at the same table with him cup.

Yun Xi was a little flattered, but still raised her wine glass gracefully, "The generals have won the prize, so I dare not be."

"Concubine Yun has worked hard this time. This is the first time I've seen you dance." The emperor also raised a glass of wine. Xia Yunxi was famous in the capital for her piano skills, and he never knew she could dance.

Suddenly, a gray-haired veteran kneeled on the ground with a plop, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

Everyone's voices were broken immediately, and the atmosphere froze. Countless eyes looked at this official in a lower-level official uniform. He looked over fifty, but his wrinkled face had an upright spirit.

Zi Yechen stared at the person in front of him, tightened his expression, and was not angry because of his unauthorized intrusion, but asked seriously: "Who is below?"

"Back to the emperor, Du Cheng, a humble minister, was originally the magistrate of Bianzhou. He was transferred to the capital last year, and now he is working in the Imperial Academy."

"Du Cheng? What's the matter? Get up and talk!" Zi Yechen waved his hand, signaling Du Cheng to get up and talk.

Du Cheng was risking his life to admonish him, but instead of punishing him, the emperor told him to stand up and speak, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Du Cheng stood up slowly supporting his old body, clasped his fists in both hands, and said bluntly: I implore the emperor to quickly resolve the difficulties of the two states, reassure the hearts of the people, and consolidate the economy of our Kingdom of Jin."

Bianzhou and Yizhou are prosperous places for business, which involved Jintian's business lines. This year's war has indeed made the surrounding people suffer. At the same time, it has also caused Jintian's economy to decline. If it does not recover as soon as possible, it may affect the hearts of the people.

"The suffering of the common people here is also something I have been thinking about these days, and I plan to talk about the allocation of funds tomorrow morning, but since this topic is brought up tonight, I don't know if the lovers who are doing it have any suggestions for economic development. ?” Zi Yechen frowned, how could he, as a monarch, not know this?

But as soon as the words came out, the officials started to discuss one after another. A representative official clasped his fists and said: "My minister thinks that we should find another place to build a place for business. As for the people at the border, we can allocate funds to help them."

Zi Yechen listened to the opinions of a few more officials, his lips were tightly pressed, but there was no emotion, then he looked at the actions of King Duan who was not far away, and asked, "Prince Duan, do you have something to say?"

"Didn't this king hear that the queen is protected by the gods? I wonder if the queen has received any instructions from the gods?" This was the first sentence Ziyingxuan said after the banquet began, but it was full of disdain. Slowly put down the cup, a pair of devil eyes looked at Meng Li, so deep that he couldn't see the bottom.

Everyone in the capital knew that she was an ignorant and incompetent dandy, how could she understand these things, and she gave some instructions from the gods, because she wanted to see her make a fool of herself!This ancient man must never be offended. If he is offended, he must guard against it day and night. Hey, it seems that in the future, she will have to guard against another Duan Wang.
