Playful Queen

Chapter 72

"My concubine greets the emperor." Concubine Li greeted her like a flower and went up to pay her respects.

Mengli got up slowly, and said in a calm tone: "The emperor is safe."

"Why did the emperor come?" Concubine Li showed a surprised expression, but her eyes could not deceive anyone, the four words "expected" flashed in her eyes, and after the emperor's words, she finally understood, "I will go!" After entering Fengyi Hall, I heard that the Queen and Concubine Li are here to enjoy the flowers."

The women in the harem racked their brains in order to meet the emperor. Meng Li looked at Li Bi and knew her thoughts in her heart. Since she has worked so hard, why not let her be fulfilled?
Meng Li smiled faintly, and said: "Actually, Concubine Li has learned a new tune recently and asked my concubine to listen to it."

"Oh, really?" Zi Yechen raised his handsome eyebrows, "Then it's really the right time for me to come here."

When Concubine Li saw the emperor sitting down, she was so happy that she couldn't speak. She hadn't seen the emperor for a long time. In fact, this rehearsal was also at the right time to let the emperor pay attention to her. This time she created this for herself. Of course, she will seize the opportunity well. Li Pin blessed her body and sat gracefully by the side of the qin, lightly picking the silver strings with her jade hands, plucking the qin with both hands, just like the song of an oriole coming out of the valley.

Listening to the song, Zi Yechen stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, moved it to his thin lips, and took a sip. Today's tea was indeed fragrant, and the fragrance entered his heart, causing him to inadvertently raise a slight trace.

Mengli who was sitting next to him watched him holding her teacup and blinked. Is Zi Yechen confused?Or did you get it wrong?He can still drink so comfortably, and he doesn't know how to speak if he wants to. Could it be that he wants to kiss himself indirectly?Mengli sighed, so she took another cup and drank it.

This song is beautiful, rhythmic, like the sound of nature. With the beautiful notes pouring out, Zi Yechen closed his eyes tightly. Although he heard it for the first time, he couldn't help admiring in his heart, this song is so popular. Well, quietly enjoying the perfect fusion of this wonderful piano sound.

When he heard a climax, his heart suddenly shook, and he suddenly opened his phoenix eyes and stared at the person playing the piano in front of him. When he heard a certain turning tone at that moment, he had an inexplicable sense of familiarity. , even touched his heart, this sound...

Concubine Li tuned in, finished playing the piece, and slowly stood up to bless her body, "Your Majesty, Empress, Li'er has made a fool of herself."

Zi Yechen nodded, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but a complex expression flashed in his eyes, and a thick voice sounded: "I didn't expect Concubine Li to be so proficient in melody, this song is very good, Queen, what do you think?" how?"

"It's just a few days to practice such a good piece, it's really nice." Che, if you lift the piano for her, she can play it too!
Mengli thought to herself, put down the cup in her hand, this time, she put the cup far away from him.

Concubine Li was secretly delighted when she heard this. It seemed that it was necessary to do what she liked. She moved lightly with lotus steps, with a soft smile on her face, "Thank you, Your Majesty and Empress, for your compliment."

"I also remember that you were not very good at playing the piano in the past. The queen said that you only practiced for a few days, which is not bad..." Zi Yechen looked at Concubine Li with a gentle look on his handsome face.

Concubine Li was very excited at this time, this was the first time she had been praised by the emperor since she entered the palace, her little face was blushing because of this, and then she said delicately, "When you return to the emperor, I know that the emperor especially likes women with excellent piano skills. So I secretly worked hard and studied for a long time."

"Concubine Li really has a heart for the emperor." Mengli said this unknowingly, indeed, such a careful arrangement is not intentional.

Zi Yechen glanced at Mengli, a handsome smile slightly curled up on the corner of his mouth, and was about to say something when a guard rushed in, whispered a few words in Xiao Quanzi's ear, and then immediately backed away, Xiao Quanzi Quan Zi hurriedly walked to Zi Yechen's side, and whispered the report in the emperor's ear.

Zi Yechen's face immediately changed when he heard that, he glanced at Shen Mengli, then turned around and said to Concubine Li indifferently: "I and the queen will leave first, and I will let Concubine Li play a song sometime later." Holding Mengli's wrist, ignoring the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her mouth and just eating it, she took Shen Mengli away in a hurry. With the sweet-scented osmanthus cake stuffed in Mengli's mouth, she was almost choked by his actions. , also unable to speak, had no choice but to trot along with Zi Yechen's hasty footsteps.

Looking at the back of her going away, Li Concubine's originally smiling face collapsed in an instant, she didn't understand why the emperor left in such a hurry, she didn't think that the emperor would pay attention to her today, how did she know... Eh, no matter what, today she Finally, I know that learning the piano can still attract the attention of the Emperor Dao. A good start is half the battle. Thinking of this, with a proud expression on his face, he walked out of the Hundred Gardens, and happened to meet Yun who was walking towards her. Xi, in fact, when the song was flying, she had been standing in the distance listening, the more she listened, the more flustered her face became. It was not until she watched the emperor and Mengli leave that she straightened her face and walked slowly with graceful lotus steps. Approaching slowly, with the long pink-blue skirt winding and dragging the floor, it is charming yet beautiful and colorful, just like a gorgeous peony flower, which fascinates people.

"Sister Lipin just played a really nice piece of music, I don't know what the name of the piece is." As she said that, Yun Xi still had an inexplicable look in her eyes.

When Concubine Li saw that it was Concubine Yun, she smiled gracefully, "Does Concubine Yun also like this song? I finally got this song."

"I don't know where my sister got it?" Concubine Yun smiled naturally, and the flustered expression she had heard before listening to the song disappeared instantly, "My sister will also teach my younger sister to learn someday."

"Sister Yunfei is humble. I am only a three-legged cat. I am not as good as my sister's superb piano skills. I will ask my sister more when I have time." Li Bin looked at Yun Xi and said obsequiously. Xi is still deeply favored by the emperor, and she still wants to get closer to the head of the East Palace.

Yun Xi glanced at Concubine Li with her beautiful eyes, and raised her lips into a smile, "Then sister and younger sister will study together some other day. My younger sister is a bit tired, so I'll go back to the dormitory first."

After finishing speaking, she turned around, her beautiful face sank, and her heart couldn't help trembling, the song just now was so real, there are only two people in this world who can play this self-created song, she and her, and that Isn't she already dead?

At this moment, Meng Li, who was forcibly pulled away by the emperor, frowned more and more deeply. What happened to Zi Yechen? Is it true that the emperor is always so domineering?
