The queen cried the whole harem

Chapter 142 It's Not A Fuel-Efficient Lamp

Chapter 142 It's Not A Fuel-Efficient Lamp

Chen Yurong complimented: "What are you afraid of? In His Majesty's heart, you are incomparable to anyone. As long as you open your mouth, Your Majesty can promise you anything. If His Majesty agrees, Yan Ning can't blame you. It can not only make Yanning look ugly, but also make the banquet less messy."

Yang Qianyue ate the grapes with a half-smile, but she was thinking in her heart, do I look stupid? If you use it like a sword, I will offend Yan Ning, but also brother Hengyuan.

How important Yan Ning is to Qi Hengyuan's heart, Yang Qianyue is still not clear, but whether it is important or not, Yan Ning is extremely useful to Qi Hengyuan.

Yang Qianyue is indeed very confident in herself. She believes that there is no other woman in the world who can surpass her and occupy the most important position in Qi Hengyuan's heart.

She is not jealous of Yan Ning, nor does she hate Yan Ning.

But compared to Yan Ning, she is definitely more willing to make friends with Chen Yurong.

Yan Ning just went to the palace to find a way out for the Yan family, and she should leave when the Nine Passes and Nine Cities are recovered.

A person who won't stay in the harem for a long time, why does she care about her?
She is neither against her nor on good terms with her.

Based on the status of the Yan family, Yan Ning is not qualified, so let her lower her status to make friends.

Chen Yurong is different, firstly the Chen family and the Yang family are family friends, she and Chen Yurong can be regarded as good friends, now that they are in the palace and serve the king at the same time, they must be called sisters in the future.

It is true that brother Hengyuan is not in the mood to pay attention to the women in the harem because he wants to recover the lost land wholeheartedly. into a blushing enemy.

But now, they are still friends for life.

And Yang Qianyue firmly believed that no one could take away the king's love for her, so she didn't take Chen Yurong seriously.

It's just that she treats Chen Yurong as a friend, but Chen Yurong treats her as a weapon, which makes her very unhappy.

Originally, the palace banquet at night was also proposed by Chen Yurong. Yang Qianyue actually didn't think about it that much. In the past three years, there was no banquet for the king on the first day of returning to the palace to celebrate the New Year.

Of course, at that time, the first emperor died in battle, the Qi State was defeated, and the entire palace was shrouded in shadow. Who would dare to hold a banquet in the palace for the New Year?

No one dares.

This year is also because of the three-game winning streak just now, everyone is happy and courageous.

Yang Qianyue asked Qi Hengyuan for his opinion, and after Qi Hengyuan agreed, Yang Qianyue dared to hold a banquet in the palace.

But the person who made this suggestion was Chen Yurong.

Chen Yurong's goal is also very clear, which is Yan Ning.

Yang Qianyue spat out the grape seeds, looked at Chen Yurong and said, "What are you and Yan Ning bothering about, she will leave the palace after all, and we will serve His Majesty in the future, even if you are jealous, it should be me and Liu Baoluo."

She spoke softly, she didn't mean to think badly about Chen Yurong, she just told the truth, but it still surprised Chen Yurong.

Chen Yurong's eyes sank, and he said with a smile: "You and Liu Baoluo, although we didn't grow up together, we often played together. Based on the relationship between our three families and the background of our three families, who is jealous? It is my honor to be able to serve His Majesty together with you, I will not have any other emotions except being happy."

Yang Qianyue smiled, she looked pure and innocent, but her words were as sharp as a needle: "Since that's the case, you can bear even the two biggest thorns in our eyes, so why can't you bear Yanning? In my opinion, at night The main purpose of the banquet is to be happy, don't mess with what you have and what you don't have, you must make brother Hengyuan unhappy, this banquet will be considered in vain."

The banquet was held in her Fengluo Palace, if the king was not satisfied, it would be her face that would be lost.

Chen Yurong thought that Yang Qianyue was a careless person, but she didn't expect this girl to hide her secrets. For so many years, she has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, right?
No wonder His Majesty likes her so much, and she holds her firmly in his palm.

Chen Yurong felt that she had underestimated Yang Qianyue. She was indeed using Yang Qianyue. The previous incident made her understand that she could not do anything by herself to clean up Yanning. My heart plummeted.

Yang Qianyue is the person His Majesty puts on top of his heart. Using Yang Qianyue to deal with Yan Ning will not involve her, and secondly, even if His Majesty is unhappy, he will look at Yang Qianyue's face and will not get angry, so everyone will be happy. After dealing with Yan Ning, Yang Qianyue won't suffer any loss without revealing himself. It's like killing three birds with one stone.

Originally, she thought she was doing it without anyone noticing, but she didn't want Yang Qianyue to act like a mirror in her heart.

She also said that she and Liu Baoluo were the thorns in her eyes, not Yanning.

Is this releasing hostility towards her, or testing her on purpose?
Chen Yurong narrowed his eyes and examined Yang Qianyue for a long time, then compromised: "Okay, listen to you, don't mess with what's there, let's focus on happiness."

Although he didn't achieve his goal and changed the rules of the banquet, he couldn't perform anything except singing and dancing, but Chen Yurong still wanted to give Yan Ning eye drops in Yang Qianyue's heart.

Chen Yurong continued: "Don't think that I have to target Yan Ning. Don't you worry about her ability? Sacred Heart is unpredictable, who knows that she often follows His Majesty to help His Majesty recover the land, and won't let His Majesty Have different feelings for her?
We are locked in the palace and cannot go out. We don't know how Yan Ning gets along with His Majesty outside. Even if the two of them make love outside, we will be kept in the dark.

Previously, His Majesty stayed at the Imperial Concubine's Mansion during the Chinese New Year, and would go out with you whenever he had free time, but this year, His Majesty will not accompany you except for New Year's Eve and Lantern Festival Fifteenth, right?

But on the first day of the lunar new year, His Majesty accompanied Yan Ning to Ning's house and had lunch at Ning's house. What kind of favor does it take to make His Majesty condescend to go to a small mansion like Ning's mansion? What about Chinese New Year?Not because of Yan Ning.

I always feel that His Majesty treats Yan Ning very differently. The difference is not because Yan Ning is useful, but because His Majesty has begun to like Yan Ning from the bottom of his heart.

I have nothing to do with it. After all, to Your Majesty, I only have kinship and no love between men and women. Although I also want to be favored by Your Majesty, I don't force it. Anyway, His Majesty and I have broken bones and are still connected. How should I put it, Your Majesty and I have a real relationship, which cannot be shaken no matter what happens, no matter who Your Majesty likes, falls in love with, or makes queen in the end, our relationship will not change. , and will not break.

But you are different. Although you and His Majesty grew up together, you have no relatives. Your Majesty loves you, and you are the jewel in his heart. If His Majesty doesn’t love you anymore, what is left of you?At best, she is an abandoned concubine.

If I were you, I would never let Yan Ning have the opportunity to win His Majesty's heart, and get rid of her before she poses a complete threat. I know that Yan Ning is useful to His Majesty now, and we can't really hurt her. She, but not hurting her, doesn't mean you can't suppress her.

Now that the harem does not have a master, you are the most important in His Majesty's heart, and you should take on the responsibility of managing the harem. If you have something to do, call Yan Ning over to give a lecture, and warn her, don't try to be seductive to seduce Your Majesty, as long as she shows a little If you want to compete for favor, you should dispel her arrogance on the spot, let her recognize who she is, and never dare to have any other thoughts about your majesty. "

Yang Qianyue originally loved eating grapes. Although this season is not the season for eating grapes, the Yang family is powerful and powerful, and His Majesty dotes on her. During the Chinese New Year, the Yang family will receive some congratulatory gifts from the officials below, and the palace will naturally Received the local tribute, although the grapes are rare, but the palace and the Yang family still have some.

These grapes are very fresh grapes, big and sweet, and they are really pleasant to eat, but Chen Yurong said a lot of things, and the more Yang Qianyue listened, the worse he felt.

The harshest thing was Chen Yurong's words like 'relatives', 'abandoned concubine' and 'confirmation of love'.

Chen Yurong couldn't get His Majesty's love, so she used her relatives to show her identity, which in disguise was belittling her identity.

And using the term "abandoned concubine" is nothing more than telling her that she has nothing but His Majesty's love.

He also said that His Majesty and Yan Ning made love in private, and they really poked her heart every word.

Yang Qianyue reached out and pushed away the plate containing the grapes, and looked at Chen Yurong with a slightly dissatisfied expression: "Have you finished?"

Chen Yurong heard that Yang Qianyue was chasing away customers, she wasn't annoyed, anyway, she had said all she had to say, based on her understanding of Yang Qianyue, Yang Qianyue would not be indifferent, even if she didn't make trouble, Yan Ning's thorn would have pierced into her heart up.

Sooner or later she will deal with Yan Ning.

She just sits and watches the show.

Chen Yurong sighed: "Don't be angry, I sincerely treat you as a sister, and that's why I said such heartfelt words, and all of them are honest words that are harsh to the ears. These words are indeed not very pleasant, and no one will feel good when they hear them, but it is precisely because they don't like you. It sounds good, no one dares to tell you, I also risked breaking up with you to say such a thing, if you want to listen, listen to it, if you don't want to listen, just pretend that I didn't say anything just now."

She stepped forward to hold Yang Qianyue's hand, and said softly: "Good Qianyue, don't be angry with me, then I'll go first, and I'll come back at night."

Chen Yurong threw away Yang Qianyue's hand, took the palace people with her, and returned to Fengzi Palace.

Xiangjie took a sip in Chen Yurong's direction, pulled Yang Qianyue up, and said, "Your Majesty, don't listen to Chen Guifei's nonsense. In His Majesty's heart, you are both a lover and a family member. Even if you step back ten thousand steps, Your Majesty will be really rejected by Yan Ning." If you are seduced, it is impossible for His Majesty to make you an abandoned concubine.

Empress, this servant can see clearly that His Majesty treats you with indulgence and love, and treats you as a family member from the bottom of his heart. Your family is different from that relative of Concubine Chen. This is how you become relatives with His Majesty, but you are a relative recognized by His Majesty, you dare to act willfully in front of Your Majesty, this is the confidence given to you by His Majesty, and also the identity given to you by His Majesty, Concubine Chen Gui dare not, why?Because that relative of hers was nothing more than an empty shelf.

And Yan Meiren, don't believe Chen Guifei's words, let's not talk about whether Yan Meiren will become an obstacle between you and His Majesty, even if one day, His Majesty really empathizes, this is not something we can do. In the matter of meddling, what the empress has to do is to establish a good relationship with every woman in the harem, no matter who wins the favor in the end, we will not become a thorn in the side of others, that's enough. "

Yang Qianyue walked towards the room quietly, without answering or speaking.

Xiangjie couldn't decide what her empress was thinking at the moment, and was very anxious. Concubine Chen Guifei was clearly sowing discord, using her hand to deal with Yan Ning, while she was reaping the benefits of a fisherman. Empress Do not fall for Concubine Chen's trap Got it.

After Yang Qianyue entered the inner room, she leaned into the couch, staring at the scenery outside. After a while, she said, "Xiangjie, brother Hengyuan didn't go to Yang's mansion for dinner this year, and he didn't spend much time with me at ordinary times. That's true. Not quite normal."

She lowered her eyes and became quiet for a while, then asked again: "Brother Hengyuan, did you go to Ning Mansion for dinner when he was in the first year of junior high school?"

Xiangjie didn't know, so naturally she shook her head.

Yang Qianyue said: "Send someone to investigate. I want to know how much brother Hengyuan had contact with Yanning during the Chinese New Year."

Xiangjie thought, it's good to check it out, at least she knows well, so she won't be deaf and blind. If His Majesty really changes his mind, Empress can make plans early.

Xiangjie said: "I'll go and inquire now, my maidservant. Don't think too much, ma'am, do you still eat grapes? I will ask you to bring them in, my maidservant."

"No, I don't want to eat."

Xiangjie paused for a moment, glanced at her mother who was distracted by the window, sighed inwardly, and stepped back.

In the evening, Xiangjie came back and reported some things to Yang Qianyue's ear.

Xiangjie didn't know if she didn't check, but she was shocked when she checked. During the Chinese New Year, His Majesty actually stayed in Yanmeiren's Yan's house many times. In the house of the concubine, I slept with His Majesty for the night.

Did His Majesty spoil Beauty Yan that night?

When Xiangjie found out about these things, her heart skipped a beat. She originally wanted to hide some things, but thinking about it, His Majesty is not someone else. An ordinary man has three wives and four concubines. As the king of a country, His Majesty will have many It is impossible for a woman to be the only one in the family. It is good for the empress to know this truth earlier.

Xiangjie told Yang Qianyue all the information she had investigated in detail.

Yang Qianyue clenched her hands in her sleeves little by little, her eyelids drooped, and her long eyelashes blocked the look in her dark eyes.

After listening to Xiangjie's report, she sat there for a long time, silent.

Xiangjie called out worriedly: "Niang Niang?"

Yang Qianyue raised her head slowly, and twitched the corners of her lips with a wry smile: "It seems that brother Hengyuan really treats Yanning differently, and Chen Yurong is not alarmist."

Xiangjie immediately said: "Your Majesty is also a man with a mortal body. It's normal that you can't bear the influence of emotions and desires. Your Majesty should not annoy His Majesty just because His Majesty is getting close to Yan Meiren. It happens that His Majesty will also come when there is a banquet in the palace tonight." Your Majesty, you keep His Majesty and become His Majesty's woman at night, so that you will be safe, instead of being jealous of others, it is better to hold His Majesty tightly in your palm, what do you think, Majesty?"

A icy light flashed in Yang Qianyue's dark pupils, did her brother Hengyuan have skin-to-skin relationship with Yanning?

She couldn't believe it, and she couldn't bear it.

However, it is useless to get angry, if brother Hengyuan really touches Yan Ning, if she cries and makes trouble at this time, it will only annoy brother Hengyuan.

If not, let her be brother Hengyuan's first woman.

Yang Qianyue suppressed the coldness in her eyes, and glanced at the incense burner in the house: "Go buy incense, I will stay with brother Hengyuan tonight."

Xiangjie's eyes moved, and she immediately understood what her empress meant. As a noble concubine, she had enough money for all kinds of expenses, and there were a lot of incense in Fengyue Palace, but the empress asked her to buy it. It's fragrant.

Xiangjie thought, nodded and gave a hum, went out of the palace in person, and bought rosemary. This kind of incense is used for fun by people with families. , Will come to buy when needed.

After shopping, Xiangjie went back to the palace, put away the things, and went to the piano room. Yang Qianyue was practicing the piano, and Xiangjie waited quietly.

After Yang Qianyue finished practicing a song, she turned her head and asked her, "Is the incense lit?"

What I asked was whether the incense was lit, but in fact, I was asking in a disguised form if the incense was bought.

Xiangjie replied: "The maidservant hasn't ordered yet, I'm thinking of ordering later."

Yang Qianyue understood, she had bought something, she nodded: "It's really early at this time."

She got up, stopped playing the piano, and went to paint again.

Yan Ning didn't know what happened in Fengyue Palace. After lunch, Yan Ning took two big boxes to her room and went to take a nap.

Woke up after sleeping, and called Niandie to get a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. The other palace people thought she was training hard for her talents at night, but locked the door, and a master and a servant were counting the money in the two big boxes.

One took things out of the box and put them under the bed, while the other sat there, writing down items one by one in the booklet.

The two of them were busy until the night of You, and it was very late at this time. Although it was the first month, the weather was still extremely cold, and it got dark very quickly at night. let's go.

Fortunately, the two of them have been busy for several hours, and they have finished moving and counting the contents of the two big boxes, and now there are only two empty boxes left.

Nian Die washed her hands and said hastily: "Beauty, will my servant help you change your clothes? I have to leave in a while!"

Yan Ning didn't refuse, since it was a palace banquet, she naturally couldn't be late, she nodded: "Okay, just wear any outfit, don't choose beautiful or flamboyant ones, I don't want to show off."

Nian Die was stretching her hand towards one of the beautiful and gorgeous dresses. Hearing Yan Ning's order, she reluctantly moved her hand away and chose a dress that was not very conspicuous in color and style.

After Yan Ning finished dressing, she also put on a fur coat with a neckline. The color of this coat was also old-fashioned, but it was very warm.

As soon as Yan Ning packed up, Liu Baoluo came. She didn't come alone, there was a girl who came with her. Yan Ning took a closer look, and then realized that it was Fu Huanghe who was with Fu Huanghe on the day of the Lantern Festival Huang Jingqin.

Yan Ning thought, that day Huang Jingqin was wearing a military uniform, her father and uncle were both Marquis of Wu, and now her uncle Huang Xurong is guarding Lanzhou Pass, and she is about to marry in Lanzhou Pass, so she must be a martial arts practitioner. Should be fine.

It turned out that the expert invited by Liu Baoluo was this girl.

Yan Ning smiled and greeted Liu Baoluo first, then Huang Jingqin, and then the group went to Fengyue Palace.

At this time, there were already many people in Fengyue Palace, but the king hadn't arrived yet, and there were still a few concubines who hadn't arrived yet.

Everyone came here to participate in the palace banquet, and of course dinner was also eaten here.

Although there are not dozens of people in His Majesty Qi's harem, there are still more than a dozen people, all of whom are daughters of ministers' families, walking together in twos and threes, talking in a low voice.

After the king came, Yang Qianyue took the king into the dining hall together, and everyone followed one after another.

After dinner, everyone moved to the side hall, which had already been arranged.

The king took his seat, Yang Qianyue, Chen Yurong, and Liu Baoluo were imperial concubines, sitting closest to the king, followed by concubines, then beauties, and finally talented people.

Yan Ning sat not far away, and Qi Hengyuan could see her when he looked up.

Qi Hengyuan glanced across her face and sat there with a teacup in his hand, drinking tea slowly.

Yang Qianyue gave Xiangjie a wink, Xiangjie immediately withdrew, went back to the bedroom, lit the rosemary, and then came back.

Yang Qianyue said with a smile: "Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, none of us have celebrated the New Year in the palace. As concubines in the harem, we have never celebrated the New Year for Your Majesty. Fortunately, the victory of the three battles last year gave us Qi I hope that His Majesty led the soldiers to regain the lost ground. We can't help you, but we can celebrate for Your Majesty. We will notify you in the morning. I think the sisters are all ready, so let's start now, starting from the last one. Let’s start, proceed in order, until the performance of the three concubines is over, and this palace banquet is considered to be over.”

She looked at the superior Qi Hengyuan again: "Your Majesty, is this arrangement okay?"

Qi Hengyuan hummed: "The palace banquet you hold is naturally arranged by you. Where to start is up to you."

Yan Ning thought silently, she was really responsive to Yang Qianyue...

Yang Qianyue smiled and said, "Then let's start with the last talent."

After hearing this, Cairen sitting at the back hurried forward, saluted the king and the three noble concubines, and then performed a dance.

After she finished going down, another person went up.

Qi Hengyuan sat there with a teacup in his hand and watched, without expressing his opinion or speaking, his eyes fell on the women performing, as if he was looking at them, but he didn't seem to be there.

It is rare for the harem to be so lively, and Yan Ning still likes it.

She is a person, although she is cold in her bones and doesn't talk to others, but she really likes to be lively.

No matter where she is, she is happy when there is excitement to watch.

Yan Ning watched with relish until wave after wave of people went down, and seeing that it was her turn, she began to get a little nervous.

There were so many people performing just now, most of them were dancing, and some played the piano, but they didn't compose poems. But after thinking about it, the reason why those people performed dances was to let the king see their slender posture, and also to win favor , and she didn't want to, it seemed like she didn't have to care, so she wasn't nervous anymore.

Finally, the people in front had finished their performances, and it was her turn.

She left her seat, walked to the front, greeted the king and the three noble concubines first, and then took out a piece of paper.

Qi Hengyuan already knew at noon that she was going to perform and compose a poem, and seeing her take out a piece of paper was not surprising, but Chen Yurong couldn't help laughing when she saw Yan Ning take out a piece of paper: "Ms. , what are you doing with a piece of paper?"

Yan Ning blinked, looked at Chen Yurong, and said: "I am not talented, I have nothing to perform, I can only write a poem and send it to Your Majesty."

With sarcasm in Chen Yurong's eyes, he asked, "Apart from writing poetry, don't you know anything else?"

Yan Ning honestly replied: "No."

The ridicule in Chen Yurong's eyes became more obvious.

Qi Hengyuan turned his head and glanced at Chen Yurong, that glance was a little cold, but Chen Yurong focused all his attention on Yan Ning and didn't notice it, but Yang Qianyue did.

Yang Qianyue naturally wanted to leave a good impression on Qi Hengyuan's heart, so she spoke for Yan Ning: "Poetry is also one of the talents. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are recognized as the four talents, and poetry is included in calligraphy. Performing and composing poems is very suitable for today's banquet, but I don't know what kind of poem Yanmei will write?"

"Your Majesty is concerned about the loss of land, so I will write a poem for His Majesty to recover the rivers and mountains."

Qi Hengyuan suddenly said, "Write it down for me."

Since she forgot to give him a gift, the poem written by her own hand should be regarded as her gift to him.

Yang Qianyue was about to say something, but when Qi Hengyuan opened her mouth, she stopped. Smiling, she asked someone to move the table over, and prepared a pen and ink.

Yan Ning spread the paper she brought on the table, picked up the ink pen, and lowered her head to write seriously.

After writing, she picked up the paper.

Qi Hengyuan gave the prince a wink, and the prince immediately went down, took the paper from Yan Ning, did not dare to read what was written on the paper, and immediately presented it to the king.

Qi Hengyuan took the paper and looked at it right before his eyes.

When he was watching the poem written by Yan Ning, the people below were also curious, staring at the piece of paper in Qi Hengyuan's hand.

Everyone wanted His Majesty to read the poem written by Yan Ning, but they dared not say it.

Although Liu Baoluo was also curious, she thought that when she left later, she would ask Yan Ning, what Yan Ning would tell her, she would not be curious anymore.

Yang Qianyue stood up slowly, as if she wanted to go to the king's side, and read the poem with the king, but the king suddenly put away the paper.

The expression on Yang Qianyue's face changed, and he sat down again.

Qi Hengyuan didn't show it to Yang Qianyue, and naturally he wouldn't show it to Chen Yurong either. Fortunately, Yang Qianyue's movement of getting up just now was very shallow, and he wasn't seen by others, so he didn't feel ashamed.

Chen Yurong is sometimes smart, sometimes stupid, when she should be smart she is not smart, and when she should be stupid she likes to be clever, probably because she wants to make trouble for Yan Ning all the time, so she can't see the form clearly, Often by surprise, it annoys the king.

No, everyone knew that the king didn't want to read the poem written by Yan Ning, so they didn't dare to say that, but she did.

It's probably because she has such a relationship with Qi Hengyuan, and she feels that no matter what she does, except for some punishment, she will not be hurt at all in the end, so she is unscrupulous.

She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, what poems did Yanmeiren write? Everyone's talent show is shown to everyone, but Yanmeiren can't show us. She only shows it to Your Majesty. What's on her mind?"

His words are really heartbreaking.

In front of so many women in the harem, it is implied that Yan Ning wants to monopolize the king, because he wants Yan Ning to become a public enemy of the harem!
Qi Hengyuan never thought Chen Yurong was vicious, but now he felt that she was becoming more and more vicious.

At this moment, Qi Hengyuan made up his mind to remove Chen Yurong from the palace.

He squinted his eyes and said, "Miss Yanmei, go down, another person will come up."

Completely ignoring Chen Yurong's words, this was more embarrassing to her than slapping Chen Yurong.

Chen Yurong's face was distorted, but he didn't dare to attack.

She put this account on Yanning's head again.

Yan Ning is really wronged, what does it matter to her?After she finished writing the poem, the first person to present it was of course the king. The king didn't read it, and he didn't let her read it, so she didn't dare to make her own opinion.

Yan Ning didn't know that Chen Yurong had recorded another amount of hatred for her. When the king said to step down, she immediately bowed and retreated, and quietly sat back in her seat.

Talented people, beauties, and concubines finished their performances, and there were three imperial concubines.

Yang Qianyue was going to be the one in the finale, so naturally she wouldn't be the first to play, and Chen Yurong didn't want to either, it seemed like she was a bit inferior.

Seeing that Yang Qianyue and Chen Yurong were both sitting there motionless, Liu Baoluo stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this concubine has made a fool of herself. Today I will perform a sword dance."

Qi Hengyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was very interested. When Liu Baoluo started to perform, he watched seriously.

After Liu Baoluo finished performing, Qi Hengyuan said to her, "Come here."

Liu Baoluo immediately lifted the skirt and walked up to him.

Qi Hengyuan picked up the sword in her hand and compared a few moves to her. They were all moves she used when she was dancing the sword dance just now. Qi Hengyuan was teaching Liu Baoluo how to express the sword dance more vividly. Returning the sword to her, he said, "Although there are some shortcomings, but for you, it's considered a very good dance."

Qi Hengyuan waved his hand and let her go down.

With so many people performing, even Yan Ning was not praised by Qi Hengyuan, but Liu Baoluo was praised by the king. In addition to the praise, the king personally taught her a few tricks. I am really envious of all the concubines below. them.

The concubines thought that they would have known that they would also perform sword dance.

After Liu Baoluo went down, Chen Yurong came out consciously. She performed the piano, because she knew that Yang Qianyue was going to perform a dance, so she stopped performing with her.

Although Chen Yurong has a lot of hostility, her piano sound is very gentle, which really doesn't match her.

Qi Hengyuan also praised Chen Yurong. When Chen Yurong stepped down, he presented another gift to Qi Hengyuan: "Your Majesty, this is a New Year's gift from my concubine. I hope Your Majesty can accept it."

Qi Hengyuan didn't embarrass Chen Yurong at this place, so he asked Wang Gonggong to go down and get it.

Chen Yurong saw the king accepted her gift, with a smile on his face, and happily returned to his seat.

The last person to perform was Yang Qianyue.

Yang Qianyue performed the phoenix dance for nine days, which was a difficult dance, but Yang Qianyue danced perfectly, and the whole figure was as beautiful as a celestial girl descending from the earth.

After the dance, Qi Hengyuan also praised her.

Yang Qianyue also prepared a New Year's gift for Qi Hengyuan. She presented the gift, and Qi Hengyuan asked the prince to accept it.

Seeing that both Chen Yurong and Yang Qianyue had prepared gifts for the king, Liu Baoluo glanced at Yan Ning from a distance, thinking, they should give a gift too?
It was also at this moment that Yan Ning suddenly thought that when she left the palace earlier, she seemed to have promised His Majesty Qi to bring him a gift when she entered the palace.

He looked at her eagerly yesterday, was he waiting for her gift?
Yan Ning subconsciously broke the appointment with the king, her heart was pounding, and she was guilty for a while, and she didn't dare to raise her head.

After Chen Yurong and Yang Qianyue gave presents, the other women would naturally give them too. They might not have thought of it, but they couldn't pretend they didn't know.

After the banquet was over, the women in the harem returned to their residences, and began to think about what gifts to give the king so that they could catch the king's eyes.

Liu Baoluo and Yanning went back to Fengluo Palace together. Liu Baoluo first asked Yanning: "What is the poem you wrote to His Majesty? Everyone is very curious, and I am also very curious. Please tell me quickly."

Yan Ning leaned over and whispered the poem in her ear.

Liu Baoluo blinked his eyes and said softly: "I thought your poems must be unique, but I didn't expect that you copied the poems of the ancients and borrowed flowers to present Buddha to His Majesty. Who knows that the food on the plate is all hard work? What does this have to do with the recovery of rivers and mountains?"

Liu Baoluo did not forget that before writing the poem, Yan Ning said that he would write a poem for His Majesty to recover the rivers and mountains.

Yan Ning said with a smile: "I just saw this one, so I wrote this one. Personally, I think there is no difference between weeding and recovering the country."

Liu Baoluo: "..."

Her forehead twitched, the corners of her mouth twitched, and it took a long time before she let out a long sigh: "...Okay, okay, I accept your sophistry... No wonder His Majesty refused to read the poem you wrote just now, I'm too embarrassed to miss my words."

Liu Baoluo reached out and poked Yan Ning on the head: "Don't be so foolish next time."

In Liu Baoluo's view, Yan Ning just wrote a poem casually, but she insisted on forcing this poem to regain the rivers and mountains.

In fact, it was indeed a very ordinary poem, without any mystery, Yan Ning was just trying to deal with this matter.

Yan Ning smiled, nodded and agreed, and the topic was just like that.

Liu Baoluo asked Yan Ning again what gift he planned to give His Majesty, Yan Ning asked her back: "What do you want to give?"

Liu Baoluo said: "I haven't thought about it yet, but I should send a painting." She explained: "As I said before, Your Majesty has everything, and I don't intend to compete for favor, so I don't want to make any tricks. Painting is the safest."

Yan Ning felt that Liu Baoluo was right, and nodded, "Then I'll give the painting too."

While talking, the two also returned to Fengluo Palace. Yan Ning and Liu Baoluo parted ways and went back to rest.

Qi Hengyuan was left in Fengyue Palace by Yang Qianyue, because it was getting late, Qi Hengyuan did nothing else, and followed Yang Qianyue into the inner hall.

The inner hall is divided into an inner room and an outer room. Yang Qianyue sleeps in the inner room, and Qi Hengyuan sleeps in the outer room, separated by a screen.

As soon as he stepped into the gate of the inner hall, Qi Hengyuan smelled a strong incense.

He frowned and glanced at Yang Qianyue.

Yang Qianyue smiled and said, "Brother Hengyuan, what's wrong?"

Qi Hengyuan smelled that there was something wrong with the fragrance in the room, but he couldn't be sure what the problem was at the moment, he just felt that the fragrance was very strange, and he had never smelled it before.
