imperial concubine

Chapter 23
Hearing Su Wan's words, Fang Yuanli's pupils constricted immediately, and his palms were put into Yuebai's regular clothes.

The person who can come to Nuanyuan today is either a prince or noble son or a daughter of a noble family. Everyone is well aware of what happened three years ago, but Fang Yuanli is afraid to discuss it in person because of Fang Yuanli's high position and authority.

Unexpectedly, a delicate and weak woman dared to ask Fang Yuanli directly: If your lord is like this, what should you do!
The Chen dynasty fell three years ago, without Fang Yuanli's great assistance, King Ruyang would never have been able to control the imperial capital so easily, and then the world.

It's a pity that although King Ruyang and Fang Yuanli had a good plan back then, the eldest princess set fire to the green banquet table, creating an indelible truth!

Since the founding of the new dynasty and the changing of the country's name, although no one in the world has mentioned this matter, everyone knows in their hearts that Mr. Fang, the prime minister, is capable and talented, but his betrayal of the previous dynasty and the former eldest princess is his life. An indelible stain!
Huo Jing, who was originally sitting at the table with the case, was taken aback when he heard Su Wan's words. He and Fang Yuanli were at odds, but he would never poke at each other's weaknesses so nakedly in front of Fang Yuanli!

When Princess Jinghuang set herself on fire at the Green Banquet Stage, she burned the truth to the people of the world, and also burned an untouchable scar on Fang Yuanli's heart.

Thinking of this, Huo Jing couldn't help leaning forward slightly, looking at the girl standing in the hall with a delicate face and unyielding eyes, he couldn't help but think of the gentle, kind, intelligent eldest princess back then.

That pair of bright and kind eyes, that faint smile that always hangs on her lips, and that clear yet majestic voice, her every move, every frown and smile are deeply engraved by me. In my heart, never forget.

I thought that I would never see someone as talented and noble as the Eldest Princess in this life, but I never thought that I would meet him tonight. This mighty young lady of the Hou family has a bit of the courage of the Eldest Princess.

Su Wan's words were so loud that everyone in the garden fell silent!
Fang Yuanli stared at Su Wan, then put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly towards Su Wan.The hem moved lightly, and the jade pendant rang.The moon-white uniform under the moonlight sets him off like a fairy walking among the white clouds.

Seeing Fang Yuanli walking towards her, Su Wan felt no fear in her heart.She was originally a high-ranking princess, and the 20 years of her previous life had already engraved the majesty of the royal family in her bones.

Facing the tens of thousands of Ruyang King's army back then, she never took half a step back, and she never showed fear in her eyes.Could it be that he would retreat in front of this unlucky person now?You know, back then, he watched himself set himself on fire.

Even if she changes her skin in this life, her heart is still the heart of the eldest princess who was passed on by all the people in the world three years ago. Why be afraid of Fang Yuanli?
The footsteps had stopped, Fang Yuanli carefully looked at the person in front of him.

The light purple and golden palace attire is well tailored; there are no gold hairpins and jade hairpins of various colors on the complicated flying fairy bun, and there is only a faint rouge on the cheeks. This kind of dress not only does not look shabby It is eye-catching tonight amidst the emerald eyes.

It's just that the eyebrows at the corners of the eyes above the phoenix eyes were carefully traced with charcoal pencils, which made the phoenix eyes shine extremely sharply.In a daze, Fang Yuanli only felt that the person standing in front of him was not this woman, but an old friend!

After a long while, Fang Yuanli came back to his senses, that person was burnt to a handful of white ashes under his eyes back then, so there is no possibility of his resurrection.

Although this little girl is somewhat similar to her, but even if she is a little different, she is not the person she used to be, so I don't need to worry too much, "I will be a monarch and minister in life, and I will be the soul of the monarch in death. If you were in Ji Kang's situation, Yuan Li will naturally die generously without hesitation."

As soon as this statement came out, all the people in the garden applauded, praising the Prime Minister as worthy of being the number one loyal minister in the dynasty, with such a strong character and integrity, he should be a model for the people of the world!As for how much of this praise is true and how much is false, only the speaker knows in his heart.

Yuebai's regular clothes are spotless, and the expression of the person in front of him remains unchanged.

It's just that whether the clothes are stained or not can be seen at a glance, but no one can tell whether the conscience exists or not.It's just that Fang Yuanli can say such high-sounding words in front of his face so brazenly, it seems that his conscience was completely lost back then.

The sleeves moved slightly, and Su Wan smiled slightly, "My lord is so loyal to the current Holy Majesty, the little girl admires it." As he spoke, he changed the subject, "General Lao Huo and Mr. Fang personally commented. The little girl has finished the piano music. Please give me your advice." .”

As soon as the words came out of Su Wan's mouth just now, Su Wan felt that something was wrong. Given that she was in an unstable situation in the Marquis Marquis Mansion, it was really not appropriate to attract Fang Yuanli's attention. Otherwise, under internal and external difficulties, her grand plan would definitely be delayed, and the loss outweighed the gain.

Therefore, seeing Fang Yuanli's reply, Su Wan followed suit and prepared to expose the matter.

As soon as the words fell, Fang Yuanli spoke again before everyone could speak, "Miss, don't worry, I still have something to ask."

Su Wan smiled faintly, "Mr. Fang is polite, so asking for advice is out of the question. Feel free to speak up if you have something to do, and the little girl will definitely know everything."

Fang Yuanli nodded, looked at Su Wan and said with a smile: "I had an old friend in the past who also played Guangling San, and it was almost exactly the same tune as the girl played, but the mortal and greedy meaning in it was exactly the same. I don't know what the girl said. Who taught it?"

Hearing this, Su Wan was startled. She was only interested in making a big splash, but she forgot that although everyone present had never heard her continuation of Guangling San, Fang Yuanli had heard her playing it once in the dormitory.

When Su Wan looked at Fang Yuanli again, he saw a smile on his face and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, but his eyes were extremely cold, but there was no smile at all!
Fortunately, Su Wan was extremely calm. Although she was shocked in her heart, she didn't show any signs of change on her face, "The little girl's piano skills were taught by Mr. Chen, a famous master in the capital. The sequel just now is a clumsy work that came up on a whim in the past. Ruo Xiao What the girl said is really exactly the same as the old man, the old man must introduce the old man to the little girl."

Cold eyes wandered over Su Wan's face, and even the surrounding temperature gradually cooled down.After a long time, Fang Yuanli said calmly: "It's a pity that heaven is jealous of talents. My old friend died young, but the girl missed her."

Just now Fang Yuanli has been staring at Su Wan closely. If she is really that person back then, her expression will definitely change when she hears my question. It's a pity that I didn't see a trace of strangeness just now. It seems that it is really him. suspicious.

After speaking, Fang Yuanli turned around and saluted Princess Jingya, who was seated above, and then sat back.

Princess Jingya nodded slightly, raised her arms slightly, and her golden robe sleeves shone brightly in the candlelight all over the court, "I also think this song is very good. It is passionate and powerful in its generosity, and gentle in its gentleness." No end. What do you guys think?"

Fang Yuanli and Huo Jing praised it before, and then Princess Jingya praised it greatly. Naturally, everyone would not be so disappointed. They all praised this song only in the sky, and it is rare to hear it in the world.

Only the eldest lady gritted her teeth angrily when she saw that Su Wan not only didn't fall for the trap, but also received the princess's compliment.

Seeing this scene, Su Wan smiled slightly, bowed to Princess Jingya and retreated.

After sitting back, the eldest lady smiled and looked at Su Wan who was calm and composed. Even though she was praised by the eldest princess, Mr. Fang and Huo Jing, Su Wan still showed no excitement on her face, as if this matter should have in this way.

Looking at Zhuru who was still holding the picture scroll behind Su Wan, the lady frowned slightly, and then a smile appeared on her face, "Wan'er is good at playing the piano, but why didn't I know that you can play the piano? When did you learn to play the piano?" of?"

In the past, both Da Furen and Su Wan lived in the mighty Marquis Mansion. Although Su Wan was the eldest daughter in name, she only had a name and no real power.

How can the eldest lady know whether the eldest daughters who have lost power can play the piano or not?
Hearing Da Furen's words, Su Wan smiled and nodded, "It's just a few trivial things, it's not worth alarming Da Furen. These things are the little ways I learned when I was doing nothing in the Marquis's Mansion in the early years. Madam was surprised by my daring to make a fool of myself today. .”

Looking at Su Wan in front of her, the eldest lady suddenly had an illusion: this person is definitely not the Su Wan from before!

Su Wan had seen it before, she was cowardly, she didn't even dare to speak aloud after seeing her a few times; but now the person sitting in front of her, the light purple and gold dress in the underground palace suit against the lights turned out to be Faintly radiating light, people are in awe and dare not look directly at it!
The eldest lady knew in her heart that what Su Wan said was definitely a lie.This piano can be ranked first among the four arts of a gentleman. Not only does it require extremely high talent, but it also needs to be practiced diligently on weekdays.The most important thing is that if it is not for the guidance of a famous teacher, it is absolutely impossible to become a master, but just now Su Wankou said that he was a teacher of Mr. Chen, a master of Qin art in the capital. How could he not know that such a famous person came into the mansion?

Thinking of this, the eldest lady narrowed her eyes slightly, and the smile on her face became even bigger, "I see!" The eldest lady nodded, and then suddenly changed the subject, "Mr. do not know?"

Su Wan, who already knew that the eldest lady would definitely attack her, didn't even lift her eyelids, but quietly looked at Dan Kou on her right hand, "Such a trivial matter is naturally not worth alarming the eldest lady. What's more, every time you enter the mansion, Mr. Report your real name, just pass it on to the concierge, naturally Da Furen won't know."

Hearing Su Wan keep saying that she didn't dare to alarm her about small things, the eldest lady felt angry: These are small things, so what is a big thing?

But then the eldest lady turned her eyes slightly, and she hit Su Wan's key point with one sentence, "Since Mr. Chen is unknown in the house and taught you how to play the piano, such a noble character is really admirable. Someday, you and I should prepare a generous gift and thank Mr. Chen together." yes."

At this time, another woman in the hall came forward and said that she would present a painting for the princess.After opening the picture scroll, I saw that it was a freehand landscape. Although there was no intention to stand out, it was quite satisfactory, and it could be regarded as a masterpiece.

Looking at the ink-colored landscape on the scroll, Su Wan showed an inexplicable smile on her lips, "Ma'am, you speak seriously. Since you have concealed your name to teach me, sir, naturally you don't want outsiders to know about this."

The eldest lady who was sitting on the side lightly smoothed the hem of her skirt, looking at Su Wan slightly.

Don't want outsiders to know?Today you became a blockbuster at the Nobile Banquet, and just now you bluntly said that you are from Mr. Chen.This matter will definitely be known to everyone in the capital tomorrow, so why not let outsiders know about it?Thinking about it, there must be something strange about it, that's why Su Wan didn't dare to visit Mr. Chen with her.

However, before the lady's skirt was arranged, she heard Su Wan say again, "It's just that the lady spoke, so I should go to see her, and it's not in vain for the old man's years of teaching. When the banquet is over today, there is still trouble." Madam, please worry about it."

The eldest lady who was arranging the hem of her skirt froze, and the fine brocade was seized badly.Then he loosened his five fingers, smoothed the brocade in his hand quietly, and nodded, "Since you agree, Wan'er, then pick a good day and send something to Mr. Chen."

Su Wan didn't speak any more, she reached out to pick up the tea bowl on the table, her gold sleeves swayed slightly, feeling a sense of confusion.
