My queen does not compete for favor

Chapter 136

So the initial confrontation between husband and wife turned into a farce of sisters recognizing each other with Mo Qingcheng's unintentional intervention.Of course, the final outcome is naturally a happy one.But behind all the happiness, there are suspicions and temptations of several parties, so it is hard to say.

The Lantern Festival, also known as the Shangyuan Festival, has always been the most beautiful festival for young men and women in the folk to watch lanterns and make a private life. However, in the palace, they are not so free and loose.The Lantern Festival in the imperial palace over the years is only a little more lively than the New Year's Eve. All civil and military officials and their families have come to participate.Of course, hundreds of officials have their own ideas, if they can use this opportunity to climb up to the relatives of some high-ranking official, and then ask the emperor to give him a marriage, that would be a match made in heaven.So for the Lantern Festival, the most enthusiastic is not the emperor, not the concubine, but the dignitaries.

The open-air venue was set up two days ago, and the weather forecast from Si Tianjian was also very accurate. Tonight is indeed a good day with bright stars and bright moon.When the first star lit up, the adults brought their wives and children into the arena one after another. For a while, the arena was full of greetings, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was pleasant and harmonious.The sky was getting dark, and all the civil and military officials who were due to come were basically there. After the palace concubines with canonized titles above the fourth rank also entered the venue one after another, Qin Xian clings to Wan Chengxiao's hand Turning into the garden, he led her all the way to the highest seat in the salute of all the officials.

Wan Qixiao tugged at his hand a few times during the period, but was held tightly by Qin Xian.

So the emperor and empress walked up to the top seat with a strange gesture of holding hands.Fortunately, the courtiers and officials on both sides did not dare to raise their heads to peek at the sky respectfully, so no one noticed the awkward emperor and empress.

After being seated, Qin Xian said "no courtesy, flat body", and everyone took their seats with a sigh of relief.Many ladies from the official family were attracted by his pleasant voice, and unconsciously peeked out of the corners of their eyes at the majestic man sitting upright.

very young!This is the first thought of all women.Although I knew that the current emperor is young and promising, but in his 20s, he has already taken on the responsibility of the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty, but seeing it with his own eyes still makes his heart beat faster and his heart adores him.As for his face, he couldn't see clearly from the corner of his eyes, especially from such a distance, all he could see was the man's dignified aura.But Rao's aura is enough to win the hearts of countless daughters.

So Yuanxiaoyuan had just sat down, and there were already a large number of young girls who secretly promised, and they secretly took aim at Qin Xian, who was at the top.Even more daring, when he saw Qin Xian's gaze sweeping towards him, he threw out a wink neatly.

Wan Qixiao pretended not to see it.After Sima Ce left, the relationship between her and Qin Xian seemed to have resumed, and there seemed to be something different.Cracks are a strange thing, and while they're not threatening, they can't really be repaired.It's like a thorn stuck in the hand, although it is not life-threatening, and sometimes you can't even feel its existence, but you often touch its wound inadvertently, and the pain suddenly stabs into your heart.

The emotional balance fluctuated, and Wan Chengxiao himself couldn't be bothered, how could he care so much about the hearts of girls who were not a threat to her.The performances of the Lantern Festival are much inferior to those of the New Year's Eve banquet, because they have to accommodate the talent performances of those housekeepers' daughters, so the festival basically focuses on singing and dancing.

The Lantern Festival here originated from offering sacrifices to Taiyi God when the Great Qin Dynasty was founded. Later, it gradually developed into a folk dating custom of young men and women watching lanterns, and gradually affected the palace, and it became mainly for young men and women. There are not many programs in the band, and many of the programs are performed by the daughters of officials, in order to show off their talents and be sold for a price.Of course, it would be the best if he could be favored by the emperor and enter the palace in one fell swoop, so the daughters of each family put all their efforts into performing, hoping to win the favor of the emperor.

But what they don't know is that the reason why the emperor is not drowsy is that under the big sleeves of the toga, a certain empress with a dignified and graceful smile is pinching his arm fiercely to repay someone Constantly touching and harassing revenge.

The performances below are either playing the piano or dancing. After more than a dozen in a row, even the right minister who is the most good-mouthed person finds it boring. Wonderful, wonderful" evaluation.

"Reporting to the emperor, He Weiwei, the daughter of a humble minister, is only twenty-eight years old. She is the jewel in the palm of the old minister. She has never been willing to accept others easily. Now is the prime of life, so today I am begging the emperor to appoint a good family. It is a good idea." The wish of the old minister and his wife has been fulfilled. The little girl can write good handwriting, and can write plum blossom seal characters while playing the piano, please the emperor to read."

This is not asking for a marriage, it is clearly asking the emperor to accept it!Many ministers pouted.But before he could finish curling his lips, he was attracted by the woman in white who slowly came up to the stage.Covered in white gauze, half covered, water eyes hazy, like smoke and mist, that full of eyes, as if expressing endless love, is more beautiful than the most beautiful West Lake March sky in the world.What a wonderful man!
The woman bowed her head upwards and said, "See Your Majesty." Her voice was as delicate and crisp as a yellow warbler coming out of a valley.

"Excuse me, Ms. He is so talented, I want to watch her. Please." Qin Xian's harmonious voice made countless women present look at He Weiwei with envy and jealousy.He Weiwei smiled indifferently, and plucked the piano in the field to test the sound a few times, and then a maid opened a blank banner and stood aside.

I have to say that He Weiwei is a smart person, knowing that her not-so-great piano skills will definitely be buried in the sound of all the daughters of the piano, so if she wants to stand out, she has to come up with something different, so she started playing the piano half a year ago. Practicing the skill of writing while playing the piano is to defeat the crowd today and win the emperor's first olive branch.

Huang Tian paid off, when she finished playing the qin, she also finished writing "Luo Shen Fu" in plum blossom seal script next to her. Immediately, the surrounding applause was extremely enthusiastic, and the praises were endless. Many dignitaries began to whisper to each other about Mr. He The young girl is here.

He Weiwei pursed his lips and smiled, got up and thanked the curtain, then took the scroll and went to kneel in front of the seat, raised the scroll above his head, and presented it to Qin Xian.

Qin Xianlang took it with a smile, read it once, and praised "Good!" Afterwards, it was naturally a reward, but he never mentioned the matter of welcoming her into the palace.

A little disappointment flashed in He Weiwei's eyes.She thanked her, and obediently went back to her father and sat down.Mr. He is already stroking his beard surrounded by several adults at this moment, laughing and boasting about his daughter.Even if you can't enter the palace, but you can get the emperor's praise and praise, it is definitely not a problem to marry a son of a high-ranking official, so Mr. He is very happy.
