"I know a little bit about dancing swords." Concubine Yang replied cautiously, "It's just that I'm not very good at it. I'm afraid that if I'm not good at it, I'll make a fool of myself. How about the princess let me draw another one?"

"Today, everyone sitting here, from my mother to me, have never seen a sword dance. Why should my little sister-in-law be humble? It just so happens that I have an unsharpened sword that was bestowed by the emperor, which is just right for use today. , it’s not like burying the utensil.”

The third princess didn't agree, but gave Yang a high hat.

Pei Yao is her cousin, and as Pei Yao's side concubine, it is not an exaggeration for Yang to be called a little sister-in-law.

At that time, Empress Li followed suit, "That's right, I have never seen a woman dance with a sword before, so today you have opened our eyes."

When the conversation got to this point, Concubine Yang couldn't avoid it, so she had to bow her body and agree.

But Wu Jian couldn't wear this heavy clothes, and he had to change his hairstyle and clothes, so Concubine Yang went down first to prepare.

During this gap, the third princess said that He Liangdi and Fang Yun would also come to draw lots later on, and let them draw lots by themselves, saying that they had to prepare earlier.

Earlier, Fang Yun suspected that the third princess had made a secret move to embarrass Mrs. Yang on purpose. Now that the third princess asked them to catch them by themselves, Fang Yun was a little unpredictable.

Is it a coincidence?

When she was thinking about it, He Liangdi grasped it first, and finally caught a piece of Fuqin, but she has learned these since she was a child, so it is naturally a pediatric subject, so she is calm.

When it was Fang Yun's turn, she was a little bit more thoughtful, so when she put her hand into the box, she felt something was wrong.

This depth seems to be more from the outside, there is a gap.

Feeling this strangeness, she quietly touched the inside of the box, and found a thin seam in the middle of the bottom, which seemed to divide the bottom plate into two.

There is a problem with the box!
The alarm bell sounded in Fang Yun's heart, suppressed his emotions, and quietly raised his eyes to look at the third princess standing in front of him.

At this moment, the third princess still had a gentle and gentle smile on her face, nothing unusual, as if she was patiently waiting for her action.

After thinking for a while, Fang Yun suddenly screamed, retracted his hand, and put his fingers to his lips, as if he was bitten by something.

"Oops! The servant who prepared the box was too careless. He brought the broken box too. There were cracks on the bottom. It almost scratched my fingers. I changed it quickly. What if I hurt someone later? good!"

She intentionally put on a delicate look, while she was talking, she observed the expression of the third princess carefully, and sure enough, she caught a flash of unnaturalness on the face of the third princess.

"Why are you paddling? Let me see if there is any serious problem?" The third princess immediately stepped forward and asked with concern.

Fang Yun shook his head, "It's okay, but it's troublesome to prepare another one in this box. Why don't you pour out the note inside and put it in the tray, let's take it directly."

The third princess was about to say something at this moment, Ruipin who was sitting behind spoke first.

"Alright, don't scratch someone and see blood, it's not auspicious, I don't see blood."

While talking, he touched his swollen belly.

Seeing this, the third princess nodded and ordered someone to pour all the notes in the box into a mahogany tray.

Fang Yun just took a look and found that there were more notes than the ones she just touched.

Sure enough, there is a compartment inside. It seems that the third princess wants the female relatives of the Eastern Palace to catch what she wants.

But at this moment, they are all mixed together, which actually increases the chance of successfully avoiding danger.

It also means that it’s okay for those specific notes to be taken away by other people. It shouldn’t be a particularly difficult thing to do, but it will have a specific effect under the operation of the three princesses.

Thinking of this, Fang Yun heaved a sigh of relief, as if he had left his fate today to luck, and randomly picked the top one of the pile of papers.

After opening it, it is not bad, it is a painting of a tea tree.

The third princess has recovered her expression now, and she stepped forward with a smile and said, "Then I can ask someone to prepare the pen and ink first."

"Excuse me, princess." Fang Yun also smiled, and immediately sat back in his original seat.

Only then did He Liangdi snort at her, and teased, "You really are so delicate, you've been rowed by a single box, what are you putting in it for?"

Fang Yun didn't bother to pay attention to her, so he didn't respond.

He Liangdi was bored, but now she curled her lips and said nothing.

But she didn't say anything, and the third princess mentioned her again.

"Empress Mother, son-in-law watched Concubine Yang dance sword, and He Liangdi just happened to get the Fuqin. Isn't this a coincidence, why not He Liangdi accompanies Concubine Yang, wouldn't it be better?"

Hearing this, He Liangdi turned her eyes to the superior, and at this moment Empress Li was nodding to the proposal of the third princess.

"It's not bad, and it saves time. We can see different things in one go."

He Liangdi was a little unhappy about this.

Of course she didn't want to match Yang, but Empress Li had already spoken, but she couldn't refuse, so she had to agree.

So not long after, the palace people brought up another guqin.

Although He Liangdi had a bad temper, she still knew the goods. When she saw this guqin, her eyes lit up and she exclaimed.

"Could this be the Liuhuiqin of the late Emperor Concubine Rong?"

"Liangdi has good eyesight. This Qin is Liuhui. It was given to Empress Dowager Rong before she passed away. Empress Mother has always loved it. She always brings it with her when she travels. Today it just happens to come in handy."

The third princess glanced at Queen Li while talking.

Empress Li also made a smiling face, and nodded, "Yes, in the past, I used to play the piano for the emperor to listen to, but now I can hear other people use this piano."

He Liangdi liked it very much, after bowing and saluting, she immediately sat in front of the guqin to try it out.

Not long after, Concubine Yang, who had changed her clothes and hairstyle, also returned to the hall with a long sword in her hand.

Fang Yun looked at the two people standing on the field silently, always feeling uneasy in her heart, but now she is barely keeping herself, but she is unable to care about the lives of others, so she can only watch.

Sword dancing and playing the piano, although side concubine Yang and He Liangdi were usually at odds with each other, they cooperated pretty well at the moment.

In particular, Yang's sword dancing body is heroic and charming, indeed very beautiful, while He Liangdi has a warm temperament, and the style of music that accompanies the sword dancing also brings out the best in each other.

Even Fang Yun was fascinated by it.

It's just that when the piece reached the most enthusiastic and exciting part, as He Liangdi plucked the strings more and more quickly, he suddenly heard the muffled sound of a broken string.

"Zheng-"

He Liangdi's face paled in shock, and she also screamed.

With her voice, everyone's eyes were immediately attracted, and at this moment, Concubine Yang's side seemed to be affected, and her steps were chaotic, she tripped over her legs and feet, and suddenly fell forward.

Unfortunately, Concubine Yang was rushing towards Concubine Rui's seat, and Concubine Yang was still holding a long sword in her hand at this moment!
For a moment, Rui Concubine's expression changed greatly in shock, and the maids beside her immediately came up to protect her.

"Mistress, be careful!" Fang Yun stood up and shouted, rushing over, wanting to do something.

But her position was really far away from Concubine Rui, so she could only watch Concubine Yang rush towards her with a sword.

Immediately, a court lady protecting Concubine Rui let out a scream of pain, and blood spilled from her shoulder.

Immediately after, Ruipin also supported her belly and turned pale.

"Come on, come on, my stomach hurts, I'm going to give birth!"
