Rebirth of the Abandoned Concubine: The Poison Goddess Doctor

Chapter 612 trick, the national teacher discovered the secret

When the few people behind were winking, the national teacher seemed to have eyes behind him, and suddenly turned his head and glanced at them. The faces of the few people froze in fright, and they quickly lowered their heads, not daring to be presumptuous anymore.

They secretly groaned in their hearts, but he was caught by him for arranging the national teacher, the national teacher should not write them down.

After the two ladies from Baili's family finished playing, it was Gongyi's turn. Naturally, Yingchu was the first to be called.

He lowered his eyes and glanced at the several pots of rare flowers and plants specially placed around her, waiting for her to make them bloom with the sound of the piano.Looking at the people around, everyone stared at her with piercing eyes, waiting for her performance with both envy and anticipation.Although she didn't see it, she guessed that the princes and grandchildren were probably already somewhere, waiting for her to play the piano.

Yingchu didn't plan to show off again, and said regretfully, "Three aunts, my left arm is injured, I'm afraid I won't be able to play the piano, so I'll give up this round."

The three aunts looked at each other, and then the aunt on the right smiled and said, "Master Weng should do his best, and we will give grades as appropriate. If we give up, it will have a great impact on Master Weng's overall score."

They all said that, if Yingchu insisted on giving up, it would be a bit deliberate.Yingchu smiled and thanked her, put her hands on the strings, tested the notes, and began to play.

For the sake of fairness, everyone played a piece assigned by their aunts. With the pearls and jades from the previous ladies in front, the sound of Yingchu's piano sounded much more ordinary, and it seemed that it was because of the inconvenience of the left arm. , before the melody was halfway through, there were already a few wrong sounds.

Nearly half of the people present had heard Yingchu's piano sound at the auction, and believed that she was back to basics, so they all listened carefully. Other beautiful girls who had never heard of it had weird expressions on their faces, and some wanted to laugh look.

The princes and grandchildren on the viewing tower couldn't help talking at this time, because Yingchu's reputation for his superb piano skills spread too widely, and everyone's expectations were high. When they first heard such an ordinary piano sound, there was a natural gap. Big, I feel a little unbelievable.

Concubine Yin sneered, and said: "Your Majesty, my concubine heard that Lord Qianji's qin art is unique in the world and can fascinate hundreds of flowers. Now I understand what it means to see once. The rumors are too exaggerated. This kind of qin is full of mistakes. She even dared to play the qin music, and none of the pots of flowers in front of her looked like they were about to bloom. Fortunately, everyone was looking forward to her, but the result was too disappointing."

Although the queen wanted to suppress Yingchu's temper, she couldn't tolerate Concubine Yin belittle Yingchu, "Don't you know that concubine? Qianji was attacked a few days ago and was shot with arrows in her left arm and shoulder. Now I'm afraid that she can't even get out of bed. It is very rare for her to insist on participating in the draft. The scene of Qianji's song "Hundred Flowers Blooming" that day was obvious to all. It is impossible for everyone to lie to praise her, so the rumor Of course it's true, she lost her standard because of a serious injury today."

"What the empress said," said the Ninth Prince with a smile, "Master Qianji has a very good relationship with Tantai Yarong and Baili Feifei. I heard that she played a special song for them later, which also made all the flowers in the garden happy." Competition release. Wengzhu’s abnormal performance today is really due to injuries, and there is nothing wrong with making mistakes.”

At this time, a prince suddenly said excitedly: "It's blooming! The flowers are blooming!"

Everyone looked around quickly, and saw a pot of orchids closest to Yingchu, tremblingly unfolding a few small flowers, although they looked a bit listless, they were indeed blooming!

There was also a commotion in the Xuan room, especially those ladies who had not participated in the first auction. Seeing the flowers slowly blooming under their noses, their shocked eyeballs almost fell out.

"Good! Good!" The three aunts were all surprised, and even the cold-faced aunt in the middle smiled a little.

"You're showing your ugliness." Yingchu smiled lightly, facing everyone's admiring eyes, showing no complacency at all.It is true that there is nothing to be proud of, she just took advantage of playing the piano to pop a thin wisp of spiritual spring water onto the orchid, and the orchid only bloomed a few small flowers. In terms of piano skills, she is far behind others Cut it.

Yingchu's movements were very subtle, no one else noticed, only Yin Jiuhua had a panoramic view of everything.He hooked his lower lip sarcastically, Hua Yingchu is really cunning enough to play such a trick.

But this also proves that she still has a lot of Tianquan water in her hand, otherwise she would not dare to waste it so extravagantly.Well, he is about to refine a batch of medicine. With Tianquan water, the success rate and effect will increase by several percent. He should find a time to ask her for a few bottles.

"What does the national teacher think?" Emperor Hongguang smiled and turned to ask Yin Jiuhua.

Yin Jiuhua was distracted just now and didn't pay attention to what Emperor Hongguang said, so he just nodded perfunctorily.

"It's a pity that there is only one pot of flowers." Emperor Hongguang was both happy and regretful. "If Qianji hadn't been injured, I and the national teacher would be able to see the grand scene of a hundred flowers blooming today."

The queen smiled and said: "It's not easy for the emperor to watch it. After Qianji recovers from her injury, let her come to the palace to present the song to the emperor. The emperor can enjoy it as many times as he wants."

"That's right, haha," Emperor Hongguang said with a hearty smile, "If the Imperial Teacher is free then, come and enjoy it with me."

Yin Jiuhua nodded: "If there is a chance, I will definitely come."

Emperor Hongguang was even happier. Every time he saw the national teacher, he could get a panacea from the national teacher. Of course he was happy.

The queen glanced proudly at the ugly Concubine Yin: "The concubine should not doubt Qianji anymore, right?"

Concubine Yin snorted coldly, feeling very annoyed in her heart.

The third prince smoothed things over and said: "Mother's queen, mother's concubine, Master Qianji's piano skills are superb, and the other ladies of Gongyi's family must not be bad, let's watch them play first."

Gongyi Keshuang and the others' piano skills are indeed not bad, and even Gongyi Kewen can barely do it after a period of hard work.Probably because of Yingchu's face, the three aunts all gave high marks.

Knowing that the emperor and the others were watching, the three aunts speeded up their progress, and the show girls in the back only played a section before they were called to stop, and soon everyone finished their exams.

The exams for chess, calligraphy, and painting in the future will not take too long because everyone will take them together. After each item is completed, the three aunts will send the compiled scores and the outstanding works to the emperor for review. The emperor talked with the mothers and concubines of several princes, and the final ranking was almost announced.

These exams were originally easy for the ladies, but most of them were pampered, and under the cold and hunger, not many of them could survive to the end and perform normally.After all the school examinations were completed, there were less than a hundred people left in the hall.

"Congratulations, all nobles!" Aunt Lengmian changed her address to the girls, "You all have passed today's re-election, and you are eligible to meet the emperor and princes and grandchildren. But you should not get carried away with complacency, passing the re-election does not mean You can sit back and relax, the most important thing is to look at your performance in the future. According to previous estimates, there will be only one out of ten people who will be able to stay in the end, which means that only about ten to twenty of you will be able to marry into the royal family in the end. .It’s not that if you are born noble, you will definitely win, everything depends on your luck.”

The girls were delighted at first, but after listening to Aunt Lengmian's words, most of the heat in their hearts was extinguished again. The atmosphere that had eased down a little bit became tense again. The girls looked at each other with strong vigilance and hostility.

"Okay, all of you come with me," Aunt Lengmian said, "When you see the emperor later, everyone remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, otherwise if you make any mistakes, you will be responsible for the consequences!"

The girls quickly lined up and followed the three aunts full of expectations.

Gongyi Kemin and Yingchu looked at each other, then nodded imperceptibly, then she walked up to Gongyi Kewen and walked side by side with her: "Sister Wen, I didn't expect you and I to pass the re-election. Although some unpleasant things happened, we are sisters after all. After I calmed down and thought about it, my attitude at that time was a bit too much. I hope that our sister Wen will not care about me. We need to help each other in the future, sister Wen Say?"

Gongyi Kewen sneered in her heart, only thinking about apologizing now, it's too late!She was sure that if she didn't pass the re-election, Gongyi Kemin wouldn't talk to her at all, and now she just came to make friends because she saw her future was bright!

But she still put on a happy look on the surface: "What did Sister Min say? Although I didn't do it on purpose in the morning, it was indeed my fault. Sister Min didn't blame me and I was so grateful. How could it be possible to be with Min?" My sister cares about it!"

"That's good," Gongyi Kemin held her hand intimately, and said in a low voice, "Then we can make a deal, no matter who wins the election in the end, we must help each other."

When she said this, Gongyi Kewen was more sure that she wanted to find an ally. Indeed, besides her, Gongyi Kemin had no other ally to choose.

"We have made a promise, and we will never break our word." Gongyi Kewen said with sincerity.

She looked at Gongyi Kemin's fair and beautiful face, and there was a flash of ridicule in her eyes.Gongyi Kemin is really cunning. When she was in the mansion, she had a face covered with freckles all day long. She only washed her face when she entered the palace, and her appearance was no worse than her own.

She always thought that she was good at pretending, but she didn't expect Gongyi Kemin to be better than her!Dealing with such a hypocritical and cunning person, if you really believe her words and make an agreement, you are stupid!He made false claims with her first, used her whenever he had the opportunity, and kicked her away if it was useless.

Gongyi Kemin nodded in satisfaction, and seemed to want to say something more, but at this moment, the aunt looked back at them, and the two hurriedly opened a little distance, not daring to speak anymore.

Gongyi Kemin glanced vaguely at Gongyi Kewen's waist, the corners of his mouth curled up a little, and then he straightened it immediately, pretending to be nonchalant.

Both of them have their own ghosts, but on the surface they seem to be very close good sisters.

When the girls arrived at the viewing tower, the aunt took them to the first floor. According to Emperor Hongguang's instructions, she did not tell them that the emperor was upstairs, but said: "You wait here first, and later the emperor, the empress and The princes and grandchildren will come."

After speaking, the three aunts left, leaving only the girls here alone.
