good wife

Chapter 694: A Chain Plan (1)
The emperor said with a smile: "Today is just to clean up Prince Liu and the eldest prince of Miaojiang, not to talk about state affairs! Come, let's have a drink together!"

Jingyi was obviously not surprised by what the emperor said!The emperor doesn't like Yuan Xi, just now Prince Liu clearly hinted that Bing Ji will be paired with Yuan Xi, so it means that Bei Liang will stand behind Yuan Xi and support him!This is not what the emperor wants to see.Therefore, he did not directly refuse, but pushed it out on the grounds that he did not talk about state affairs, which made Jingyi a little confused!

King Ming raised his glass and said, "I've heard for a long time that the Prince of Beiliang is magnificent, but seeing him today is indeed extraordinary. Come, I will offer a cup to Prince Liu!"

"His Royal Highness, Prince Ming, is being polite. I will do it first as a respect."

Princess Li Jing suddenly walked to the main hall, "Father, my son recently learned a new piece of music, I will play it for my father, queen mother and all the distinguished guests, okay?"

The emperor smiled, "Oh? What new song did Jing'er learn? Who taught it?"

"Returning to my father, I was taught by Si Yue. My son knows that my mother's piano skills are excellent, and I am envious of him! After nearly two months of learning, my son has finally been able to get a true inheritance from my mother."

"You child, you really can talk! You can play pretty well! Even better than the queen mother." The queen said, then turned her head and said: "Your Majesty, let her try it! Anyway, she is a child, so I will listen to you." It’s because I played it badly, but it’s harmless!”

The emperor nodded, "Okay, since Jing'er wants to play, then it's up to you! If you play well, I will reward you a lot, but if you don't play well! Then you have to go down and continue to practice hard, understand Yet?"

"Yes, father." After Li Jing finished speaking, the palace servants presented the incense table and Guqin. After Li Jing sat down, she tried the sound of the piano, looked up at the Queen, and saw her nodded slightly. Just started playing!
wrong!Very wrong!Jingyi looked at Li Jing tonight was surprisingly wrong!She never forgot how this little princess plotted against her back then.She will definitely not play a piano in the hall for no reason, there must be a conspiracy!Jingyi glanced at the queen on the high seat, and seeing her calm expression, she even had a bad premonition in her heart!
At this time, when Yuan Xi heard this piece of music, his hands trembled unconsciously!There was a 'thump' in my heart, and I screamed that it was not good!Unexpectedly, Li Jing actually learned this piece of music, which is really bad!
After hearing this song, Qingtian and Princess Lixiang were also a little puzzled!Especially Princess Lixiang, with an extremely curious look on her face!

Jingyi took everyone's expressions into her eyes, and turned her head to see that the emperor was frowning deeply!It seems that either there is something wrong with this piece of music, or there is something wrong with the person playing this piece of music!
Suddenly, the sound of the piano came to a wonderful place, with a 'buzz' sound!The strings are broken!

For a while, the hall was extremely quiet!Jingyi's eyes narrowed slightly, it really was premeditated!At the palace banquet of the royal family, all kinds of musical instruments were of the highest grade, how could the strings suddenly break for no reason?Things are really strange!

The Queen's eyebrows seemed to be a little distressed, "Come quickly and let the Queen Mother take a look, but did you hurt your hand?"

With tears in Li Jing's eyes, she timidly glanced in the direction of the emperor, and walked to the queen's side very carefully. The appearance of this little girl is indescribably pitiful and wronged!
"Let me take a look! Come on, hurry up and take the little princess to the apse, ask the imperial doctor to come over and take some medicine, so that there will be no more scars!"

"Yes!"

"Mother, it's because the sons and ministers are not good at learning, that's why they are like this! Let the father and mother be disappointed."

The emperor also saw the blood on Li Jing's fingertips, and frowned slightly, "That's all. I don't blame you for this matter, go down and let the imperial doctor give you some medicine."

"Yes! My son is leaving."

As soon as Li Jing left, Princess Ming in the hall said: "It's a pity! I haven't heard all the sound of the piano today! I have never heard this song before."

The queen smiled, "Concubine Li played this piece very well back then! I haven't heard it for many years. I don't think Jing'er played this piece today. She is just a child, and she also thinks This piece of music is just nice and novel! Please don't blame the emperor!"

The emperor frowned and said nothing!

But Princess Lixiang in the hall was a little puzzled and said: "Empress, it's just a piece of music, why should the emperor blame it?"

"You are from Miaojiang, so I don't know. A former concubine of the emperor also loved this song very much, and the emperor also loved listening to her playing it. Oh, no, it was played with a very weird instrument! Said Come to think of it, it has been more than 20 years, and I miss it very much!"

"Enough! Empress, why don't you send people to arrange singing and dancing anymore?" The emperor's voice contained anger, and anyone in the hall could hear it, but Princess Lixiang seemed to be unable to hear it, and she tilted her head and asked Said: "It's strange! This song is obviously my folk song in Miaojiang! How can the emperor's concubine do it too?"

Now Jingyi fully understands the queen's intentions!This is to reveal to the public the matter of Concubine Li's origin in Miaojiang!Thinking about making it impossible for the virtuous king to succeed to the throne!The son of the Miao people is not qualified to inherit the great rule!

Jingyi thought that Princess Lixiang's dance just now must have something strange, plus her appearance!Today, she deliberately put on the clothes of the Central Plains!
Li Xiang didn't seem to know what kind of uproar her words would cause, she still looked at the Queen expectantly!
Jingyi sneered secretly in her heart!Sure enough, Princess Lixiang has already colluded with the queen!Still pretending to be so similar!
The queen glanced at the emperor with some embarrassment, and then saw the shock on the faces of all the officials below!Most of the veterans among them, although they haven't seen Concubine Li with their own eyes, they are still very familiar with the piece that Concubine Li often plays!Just now they were familiar with the piece played by Princess Li Jing, now they heard what the queen and Princess Lixiang said, and immediately remembered that this piece was the one that the emperor loved to listen to back then!
Although it is a different instrument, but if you pay attention, you will hear that it is the same piece of music!The veterans in the hall have already begun to discuss in a low voice!
The emperor turned his head to look at the queen, his eyes seemed to stir up a big storm, and he said word by word: "The queen is really my virtuous wife!"

The queen seemed unable to understand the sarcasm in the emperor's words, but she lowered her head and responded: "I thank the emperor for his praise! The concubine is the mother of a country, and it is her duty to share the emperor's worries! What a coincidence! Chenqie will definitely send someone to find out who Si Le taught Jing'er to play this piece."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, with a sneer on his face, staring at the empress's face with a bit of vicissitudes, and said lightly: "The emperor seems to have more fine lines on his face! It seems that the empress is more suitable for repairing. Cultivate Buddhism and recite scriptures, otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll grow old too quickly!”
