Space takes me to ancient times

Chapter 212 Talent
In the crowd, Chu Yuan and Chu Yang looked at Qu You frequently, wishing to replace her with their bodies, as if they were afraid that she would make a fool of themselves, and their expressions were anxious.It's not that they don't trust Sister-in-law Nine. This Situ Yan is a well-known talented woman in Luoning City. No.1 No. [-] noble girl in Ningcheng.

However, compared to the two of them, Brother Chu Xu was very calm.Chu Yu didn't even lift his eyelids, didn't even glance at him out of the corner of his eye, he patted Fear Qu You comfortingly with his big hand, and his thin lips curved slightly.

"The Ninth Brother and Sister are afraid to take on the challenge, so it's no wonder she shrinks back. This Situ Yan is our number one talented woman in Luoning City, how can she be compared to a country girl." Jiang Lingcan looked like she was watching the show.

Chu Xu took a sip from his wine glass, then raised his eyes to the woman beside him, "Just be your Princess Yan, and you don't need to say anything else."

Jiang Lingcan twisted the brocade handkerchief and bit her red lips tightly. She turned her head to look at Chu Xu, her bright eyes were full of resentment.They have been husband and wife for nearly ten years, but in his heart, he still hasn't forgotten the existence of that bitch.

"What do you mean by your lord's words? My Jiang family is a century-old hairpin family. I consider myself gentle, gentle, dignified and virtuous. It is by no means comparable to those country girls and vulgar people." As soon as the words fell, Chu Yu His eyes glanced over.Jiang Lingcan's heart tightened, and she quickly smiled flatteringly in the direction of Chu Yu and his wife.

Chu Yu hooked his lips, and a trace of coolness flashed across his calm eyes. His eyes narrowed slightly, and Jiang Lingcan's heart stopped in fright. She picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth carelessly.

"The emperor's sister-in-law has been married into the palace for nearly ten years, but she still hasn't bought a son and a half for the royal family. Presumably, there are too many things in the palace, which distracted her mind. Speaking of women's affairs here, one depends on fate, and the other Look at your body. Maybe it's due to the lack of fate, so don't worry about your sister-in-law, you must take good care of your body, and strive to have double happiness before the fifth brother's birthday this year." Jiang Lingcan was sweating coldly when he said these words of concern.In this summer day, when the breeze blew by, her delicate body trembled, causing a shiver abruptly.

As soon as Chu Yu finished speaking, Emperor Ming Hui's eyes swept over.The marriage of King Yan was the queen's sponsor, and she thought it would be a happy marriage that would be a good story, but unexpectedly, this princess Yan is not a good child.Today, the five emperors have been husband and wife for nearly ten years, but they still don't have a son and a half by their side, which is really worrying.Thinking about it, Emperor Ming Hui looked at Jiang Lingcan, but his eyes were not as kind as before. His brows were slightly frowned, and his eyes lightly turned to the female relatives.

"Come here, draw up a decree..." Ming Huidi suddenly opened his mouth while pushing cups and changing cups.

The majestic voice resounded in the hall, and everyone followed the prestige, only to see Emperor Minghui sweeping towards the female family's mat with his eyes smiling, the deep meaning in those eyes made everyone's hearts stir up waves.

"Situ Aiqing's daughter, Situ Yan has both virtue and talent, she is beautiful and wise, gentle and virtuous, and she is now married to Yan Wang Chuxu as a concubine, and she will marry at a certain date."

As soon as the emperor spoke out, there was an uproar in the hall.It not only confused the courtiers in the hall, but also made Situ Yan who was standing in the hall dumbfounded.No, no, how could this happen, there must be a mistake.Situ Yan stared blankly at the host seat, tears streaming down her face involuntarily.

"Weichen, take the order to thank you." Situ Min's voice rang in his ear.She turned her head stiffly and looked at her father who was kneeling on the ground, how could this happen, she just provoked Princess Rui, she didn't even have time to compete with her.

"Miss Situ, are you dissatisfied with the marriage bestowed by the emperor?" Chu Yang smiled slightly, but what he said surprised Situ Yan.

"My daughter, Situ Yan, thank my emperor for your grace." There was already a sob in the words.

Everyone watched this farce and couldn't help sighing silently.Prince Rui is very capable. Not only did he solve an opponent for the princess, but also made Situ Min have to choose to stand in line.The depth of its city mansion is really rare in ancient times.

Situ Yan looked at Chu Yu unwillingly, the resentment that flashed in his eyes made Qu You startled.She clenched her palms tightly and secretly raised her vigilance.

"Princess Rui, do you dare to accept my daughter's challenge?" Although the corner of Situ Yan's mouth was smiling, her eyes were full of provocation.

After Situ Yan finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to Qu You, wanting to know how the newly promoted Princess Rui would answer.Qu You didn't answer, she looked up at Situ Yan with sarcasm in her clear eyes.She suspected that there was something wrong with this girl's head. She had already become Princess Yan, and she still came to stare at Chu Yu. Isn't she afraid of damaging her boudoir's reputation and being cast aside?
Seeing that Qu You didn't speak, Situ Yan spoke again, "Wangfei is so evasive, could it be...the rumors are distorted?" After speaking, she looked at her with a little disdain, her eyes full of pride.

"Since it's a rumor, it's naturally exaggerated, it's better not to believe it." No matter what Situ Yan said, how aggressive he was, Qu You just refused to accept the move, not only refused to accept the move, but also asked and answered politely.

Situ Min watched his daughter being played around, feeling ashamed and ashamed at the same time.It's just that my daughter has already said this, if she can't let Prince Rui take action, I'm afraid that I will be implicated by this girl and ridiculed by my colleagues.

"Why should the concubine be so modest? Today coincides with the presence of His Majesty and Empress. She must also want to see her beauty." After speaking, Situ Min smiled meaningfully.

Beside the dragon chair, the queen was sitting gracefully, with her hands in front of her belly, her phoenix eyes lowered, as if she didn't hear the noise in the palace, she casually played with the hollow gold armor in her hand.At this time, upon hearing Situ Min's words, she slightly raised her eyes, "Ben Gong, I also want to see him."

Even the empress opened her mouth, if Qu You refused to agree again, it would be too ignorant of flattery.She walked slowly towards the center of the hall, looked directly at the empress with a pair of watery eyes and said, "Since the empress ordered, Qu You must obey."

Chu Yu sat on the seat with a cold face and didn't speak a word, but he always had such a cold expression, and others didn't think it was strange.It should be said that the Eighth Prince Chu Qin was the one who reacted the most to this incident. No one in the palace knew about Situ Yan's little trick. No one in Luoning city knows about it.But she's fine, she can't go anywhere, and the right minister has joined in the fun anyway. Ever since hearing him speak, Chu Qin's brows have never been raised. Later, when he heard that even the queen was involved, he couldn't help being even more angry. Jin Zun's hand turned slightly white with force.Right now, Concubine Lian and Concubine Xian are in an alliance, but he alone cannot sustain it.Now, it's too late for him to win over Chu Yu, his aunt is lucky, she's afraid that she won't offend her thoroughly.Although he didn't believe that Chu Yu would do anything for a woman, she was Prince Rui and Princess Rui after all, and to humiliate her would be to disgrace Prince Rui. Do they understand this truth?What's more... He looked in the direction of Emperor Minghui, and sure enough, he saw that his face was gloomy, not joyful. Chu Qin gave Situ Min a hard look. It was more than success than failure!

After the musician arranged the guqin, he bowed to her and retreated to his seat.Qu You sat in front of the Guqin with a solemn and solemn expression.A good piano, worthy of being a thing in the palace, with a fine sandalwood texture, the body of the piano is carved with dragon patterns and phoenixes, and the strings are as tight as gossamer.She raised her bare hand slightly, caressing on the strings, before she could make a sound, she suddenly noticed that the person in the palace seemed to have "moved", she looked up, and saw that person coming in full of elegance.

Everyone was shocked when they saw Chu Yu suddenly get up and walk into the hall, and then they heard him say, "Since the empress is so elegant, I might as well show my shame." After finishing speaking, he suddenly pulled out his sword from his waist, " "Shua", Qu You only felt a cold light flash in front of his eyes, and saw Chu Yu standing in front of him holding a sword.

Since Qu You agreed to play the piano, Situ Yan's eyes have been on Chu Yu's body, so she noticed Chu Yu when he got up just now... The initial surprise was when he drew his sword and stood in front of Qu You In an instant, it was like being showered with a basin of cold water, completely cold.Chu Yu's actions, let alone the people present did not expect it, even Qu You himself did not expect it.She looked at the slender figure in front of her. He was standing with his back to her, holding a sword in his hand, his figure was upright and fearless, as if even if there was a scourge in front of him, he would resolutely block it for her!
The breeze blows, and the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus is lingering. With a sound of "Zheng", the sound of the piano suddenly resounds. Her slender and white fingers pluck the seven strings, and there is a clear and smooth sound of the piano, like flowing water, with A touch of sadness.From peaceful to intense, it reverberates continuously with Songtao for a long time.When you start and drop your hands, whose heartstrings does that shangxian vibrate?Her movements slowly slowed down, and the sound of the piano became quiet and elegant, mellow, with a touch of sadness, just like the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.

At the end of the song, the lingering sound curls up...

"Okay, good lyrics, good song." In the crowd, a man in white got up excitedly, no matter how the people around him dragged him, he still clapped his hands vigorously.

"This song should only exist in the sky, it's rare to hear it in the world. Princess Rui, you really live up to the reputation..." Suddenly, everyone praised her, wishing to use all the praiseworthy words on her.

With Chu Yu's behavior, the "blind man" can also see Qu You's status in Prince Rui's residence, and this court man is used to flattery and flattery.At this moment, everyone was praising Qu You's piano skills and how well he matched Chu Yu. Suddenly, no one paid attention to Situ Min's expression!Naturally, no one noticed that Situ Yan's resentful eyes had been fixed on Qu You, not to mention Situ Min's expression, which was extremely ugly.Shame, it's really too shameful.He gave his daughter a hard look, and at this moment, he wished he could leave in a huff.

Chu Yuan looked at the scene in surprise, her small mouth was opened wide. She never thought that Nine Emperors Sister-in-Law was so powerful, not only proficient in tea art, but also good at playing the piano.In this world, what else does she not know?Excited...Chu Yuan finally couldn't help clapping her hands and shouting "Hello!"

The queen's phoenix eyes slightly raised, and a faint smile appeared on her mouth, "Princess Rui really deserves her reputation, no wonder she is held in the palm of Prince Rui's palm like jewels and treasures." After finishing speaking, she turned her head to look at Situ Yan, "Situ Miss, do you want to continue the game?"

Situ Yan stared blankly at the field, her eyes gradually moved down, looking at Chu Yu and Qu You's intertwined hands with tears in her eyes.He protects her like this, even if he is a talent show, he is afraid that she will be humiliated.That being the case, how can she be compared... Now that the Holy Majesty has given her a marriage, she is the Ping Concubine of King Yan. Even if she wants to fight, she will fight for Chu Xu with Princess Yan Jiang Lingcan. I am afraid that she will have nothing to do with Chu Yu in this life. .

She held back her tears, and blessed the queen from a distance, "My daughter admit defeat."

A cold light flashed in the queen's eyes, she gritted her teeth secretly, she no longer had hope for Situ Yan.An incompetent person is simply not successful enough to fail. A small country girl can actually gain a foothold in this city of Luoning full of noble girls, it is really embarrassing to the royal family.Her heart turned wildly, and she suddenly laughed, "Princess Rui's outstanding piano sound is rare in this palace's life, and the pleasant lingering sound really lingers around for three days without end. However, this woman should play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting for four days. Art as a model in the boudoir. Now, this piano art has passed..." After finishing speaking, he raised his eyes to signal to the third princess.Chu Qingge nodded slightly, then turned around calmly.

It's a good palace banquet, but it has to be the same as the Chu State Talent Selection Competition. I don't know if this ancient man has too few entertainment items, or why he likes to watch other people's performances.

Qu You secretly tugged on Chu Yu's skirt, shaking her head slightly.No, she is tired and hungry now.Since entering Yuhua Palace, not only has she not eaten a single bite, but she has digested all the food she ate before coming here. Now that she is being asked to perform, she really has no strength.

"Are you tired..." Chu Yu asked in a low voice.

"Hungry." Qu You said pitifully.

"That being the case, let's go." After finishing speaking, he nodded to the queen above him, "I will take my leave first."

The queen was so angry that she watched the couple leave, but there was nothing she could do.She turned sideways slightly, and secretly raised her eyebrows at Chu Qingge where Emperor Ming Hui couldn't see, Chu Qingge nodded knowingly.

"Ninth brother, don't worry." Chu Qingge got up holding the wine glass.

"Princess, you..." The third son-in-law was startled, and raised his hand to stop it.

"Don't worry, my son-in-law. I haven't seen my ninth brother for many years. Today I just take this opportunity to talk about it." Chu Qingge blocked it with one hand, and it was too late for the third son-in-law to stop him.He sighed lightly, and sat down heavily.

Qu You turned her head and looked at the third princess who was full of grace.Can't help admiring the birth, so... It's no loss that he was born in the first place, and he really has the demeanor of everyone.Between the gestures of the hands and feet, the radiance is like fireflies and beans, not only has the spirit of a white rainbow penetrating the sun, but also has the momentum of a spring breeze.After watching Chu Qingge and watching other princesses, she finally understood what the difference between clouds and mud is.I saw Chu Qingge wearing a golden cloud sweater embroidered with elegant orchids, a yellow ancient pattern double butterfly cloud-shaped thousand-water skirt that stretches across the floor, and a Bixialuo peony mist gauze in his hand.Yunji E'e, wearing a hollow orchid bead hairpin, her face is as charming as the moon, her eyes are looking forward and shining, and she smiles, she is unparalleled in beauty.

"Sister Sanhuang, how about not seeing everything for so many years?" Chu Yu nodded lightly.He will always remember that Chu Qingge cared for him when he was young, no matter if it was fake or fake.At least, that care kept him from being bullied during the years in the palace.

"Sister Huang came back from Weishui on purpose, one is to attend the feast of the Four Kingdoms, and the other is to attend the wedding banquet of the Ninth Brother. Now, the Nine Brothers and Sisters have already seen each other in this palace, I don't know..." Chu Qingge smiled very charmingly, Holding the cup, she kept moving her feet in front of Qu You, "Nine younger brothers and sisters, if you wish, you can compete with me like this palace."

Qu You's eyes widened suddenly, she must be hallucinating, what did the princess say just now, she said that she wanted to compete with her, she really regarded herself as a busker.She shook her head slightly, "The daughter of the people is unwilling, please forgive me, the third princess."

Chu Qingge's face froze, her smile slowly faded, her eyes drooped slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a slight smile, "Ninth siblings, please don't be self-effacing, just treat it as a boudoir daughter playing for fun, not for real. "

It's this sentence again, can't you change it to a fresh word?Qu You pursed his lips secretly, the pulling contest is called having fun, and the royal family really has a lot of fun.She shook her head, but still didn't fight.

The atmosphere froze for a moment, Chu Qingge narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light glides through them quickly.I don't know how to flatter, if it wasn't for Lao Ba's throne, how could this princess be able to get along with you and other vulgar village girls.
