A mercenary in the world, a ruthless concubine

Chapter 79

Su Mei gave a long gilt silk dress, embroidered with bright roses, as beautiful as March flowers.

On her head is a delicate and gorgeous updo, and her delicate makeup looks a bit heavy, but overall she looks very decent and generous, with a heavy nobility exuding from head to toe.

She was smiling. At this time, she finally had the appearance of the most beautiful woman in Yunguo. Su Luo looked at it quietly and didn't feel much. She had a premonition that this woman dressed up specially today. It's a good show.

"See the crown prince and concubine." General Su's family immediately saw the two standing in front, and walked over to salute respectfully.

Su Luo stared at Su Mei, she was wondering what kind of shocking move this woman would make.

"Forget it!" Qian Lingjue didn't even bother to look at her, turned around and walked to the seat next to her with a casual wave of his sleeves.

After about a stick of incense, the rings outside the door clashed one after another.

The eunuch's piercing voice sounded again: "The emperor is here, and the imperial concubine is here."

This sound sounded, and the direction of the door suddenly turned yellow. A middle-aged man and a beautiful woman came in. Behind them were a large number of maids, and the battle was especially big.

Su Luo stood up with everyone and saluted respectfully.

"Your Excellencies, rest in peace. Although today is a state banquet, you don't need to be too cautious." The voice was majestic but imperceptibly tired.

Qian Ao's eyes unconsciously focused on Su Luo. Before, he only listened to old man Mingji's one-sided words. Now that he saw him in person, he naturally had to take a closer look.

Su Luo felt very uncomfortable being stared at like this, and raised his head to meet Qian Ao's eyes.

This emperor is much better than she imagined. According to rumors, he is intoxicated by the dream of beauties every night. Su Luo thought that such a person must be listless and lifeless, but he did not expect to see this person today. The kind of uncle-type man that girls like.

The first feeling is not too bad, but I think it is not bad, he looks good but only slightly similar to Qian Lingjue, presumably the scourge of Qian Lingjue is inherited from his mother.

"Your Majesty, hasn't the Empress Dowager arrived yet?" Concubine Wan Gui asked in a gentle and virtuous manner, indeed she had the demeanor of a mother.

Qian Ao said with a smile: "The queen mother always likes to be late, and she must be late again today. It's good for us juniors to wait."

While talking outside the door, an old and majestic voice sounded: "Aijia is just a little late, the emperor said so, it seems that Aijia will not use such a big scene next time, so as not to waste your time."

Su Luo turned his head to look, and saw an old lady in her 60s and 50s, her gray hair was combed meticulously, and Yi looked about [-] or [-] years old, with a slight dissatisfaction on her face.

"Why is the queen mother like this? My son just saw that you didn't tell a harmless joke." Qian Ao is a very filial person. Over the years, as long as his mother is not involved, he rarely loses his temper.

Such a character is also doomed, one of the factors for the prosperity of the Wan family.

But what Su Luo really paid attention to was a little girl running around beside the queen mother. She was about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a naive, lively and unscrupulous face, and a smile on her face that made everything feel very strange. curiosity.

She turned her head and asked Qian Lingjue: "Who is that little girl? Why haven't you mentioned it before?"

Qian Lingjue looked in that direction, her eyes softened involuntarily: "She is the eighth emperor's younger sister, the youngest princess named Qian Yuexin, who is five years older than the ninth prince."

"Oh, this child seems to be very popular with the Empress Dowager."

Nodding her head, Qian Lingjue continued: "Yuexin's mother is my grandmother's niece, and she died in childbirth. She was raised by her ancestors when she was born, so she is closer than others."

Su Luo was surprised to find that behind them, the Ninth Prince Qian Mingfan followed behind his mother with a slumped head. He was a lot shorter, so they didn't notice it at all just now.

Qian Mingfan felt someone staring at her, raised her head to look, saw that it was Su Luo who was taken aback, and then handed it over with a grimace.

Su Luo couldn't help laughing, this kid is really unpleasant, but his eyes seem to hide too much misfortune and unhappiness.

"Is Qian Mingfan very unhappy?" She asked this sentence unconsciously.

Qian Lingjue was taken aback for a moment, he didn't know who was really happy in this palace: "He is naturally unhappy, although his current concubine mother loves him very much on the surface, but everyone knows that those are all fake, then The woman is just using him to protect her identity, his own biological mother has already died in this harem battle just like mine."

Su Luo's breath was stagnant, she had heard about the cruelty in the palace a long time ago, but in the face of such fresh lives, they quietly passed away little by little, even many people didn't know why they died, and their hearts were not enough to swallow. elephant.

Desires and rights are terrible things. Now think about how clean her life is.

"He is very lonely, those rebellious actions should be because he wants to attract your attention!" Su Luo said softly, as if muttering to himself.

Qian Lingjue on the side continued to say: "Qian Mingfan is stubborn, but there are also people who are afraid. Every time Yuexin says something, he dare not not listen to it. Judging by his appearance, he must have wanted to run out to play randomly again just now. "

The two spoke very quietly, but they didn't notice that several big figures on the high seat had noticed them.

The empress dowager was relieved to see the two whispering to each other: "You are General Su's third girl?"

Su Luo raised his head to look at the gray-haired queen mother, stood up and said respectfully with a slight smile: "The granddaughter-in-law pays homage to the imperial grandmother."

"Hehehe, this little girl has a very sweet mouth, no wonder Jue'er cares so much about you." The Empress Dowager liked Su Luo's greetings very much. How many people in such a deep palace sincerely treat her , even if the emperor's grandmother is her own grandson, she will only say it when no one is around.

The royal family lacks nothing, except for that family affection.

Qian Ao nodded, and seemed to be in a good mood: "Yes, let her go to the palace to accompany the imperial grandmother more often in the future."

After a mess of pleasantries, the state banquet really began.

The dancers in the palace and the special band played serious music, which had a hypnotic effect and made Su Luo drowsy.

Everyone was toasting and toasting to the music, but Su Luo really didn't like such occasions, and gradually became tired.

After a court dance, the scene quieted down. The queen mother on the side seemed not to be enjoying herself: "It's rare that the daughters of these ministers are here today. I thought maybe I could watch something special and let these girls show their talents. Maybe the old lady It may not be possible to be a matchmaker for them."

The emperor laughed loudly: "It's really a good idea, since the queen mother likes it, let them try it!"

In an instant, the hall of Nuo Da was full of voices. Among them, Su Mei almost stood up excitedly. She had made enough preparations today, and she did not expect it to go so smoothly.

With burning eyes, today she will regain the title of the number one beauty in Yunguo.

The first one to play was Qin Yushi's daughter, named Qin Yu'er, she was a pretty girl, she played the piano well, although she was not as good as Su Luo, but she had a special charm.

"Okay!" After a piece of music was over, Qian Ao was the first to clap his hands. Over the years, he has shown that he has become addicted to women, seeking fresh prey every moment.

Seeing the emperor's support, the rest of the courtiers started applauding one by one.

Qian Lingjue snorted coldly and turned his head away, not looking at his father.

Su Luo asked strangely: "What's wrong?"

She knew that Qian Lingjue and Qian Ao were at odds, but she hadn't asked the reason. What is the reason for such disdain now?
"Father used to love my mother very much, and the two of them once swore to be together forever, but less than half a year after my mother died, he began to fill the harem unscrupulously, and then began to linger in the flowers and throw away all the vows he had made. Behind the head, you say it's ridiculous." After speaking, a sarcasm in the corner of his eyes hurt Su Luo's eyes.

It is only now that I realize that this man is stupid. Where in the world is there an eternal vow!
"Maybe he just wants to find a way to vent his sadness!"

Qian Lingjue raised his head to look at the cheerful man, a voice in his heart told himself that he was just too lonely.

The dialogue between the two of them had not been seen in the previous performances. At this moment, the sound of solemn drums suddenly sounded.

All of a sudden it caught everyone's attention, and a slender figure was frozen there in the dark.

Su Luo recognized that person's identity at a glance - Su Mei.

Her clothes are too conspicuous, no wonder others can't recognize her.

"Isn't this the emperor's entry song?" Many courtiers behind him began to discuss.

Even the emperor who applauded just now stopped, looking solemnly at the slender figure dancing slowly, his posture is absolutely charming.

When Su Luo was in the mansion some time ago, she had seen such an entry song recorded in the Historical Records of the First Emperor. It seemed to be a legendary one, but she had never heard what it really looked like.

"Hmph, your sister is really not easy. You can even find this kind of lost things, but I don't know if it's a disaster or a blessing for her to spend so much time this time..." Qian Lingjue looked at Qian Ao's gradually fiery Looking at him, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

The Empress Dowager on the stage couldn't help but shed tears. The Emperor's Entrance Song is a classic, not only to commemorate the life of the Emperor, but more importantly, to witness the time when she and the Emperor fell in love with each other.

The sound of drums and music continued, and the sound of discussions behind him became quieter. Looking solemnly at this dance that has accumulated history, it entered everyone's hearts with the weight of history.

Su Mei wore an exquisite mask on her face, her peerless face was covered, and the rest of her graceful figure danced with the music.

When the dance was over, the audience was in an uproar. Many people stood up and applauded, and the audience was shocked instantly.

Su Mei saluted gracefully, and looked at Su Luo, who had been calm all the time, proudly from the corner of her eyes.

She couldn't help but sneered, she never wanted to compare with her, it's just that some people are just so annoying.

"Very good, take off your mask and show me." Qian Ao's eyes were burning, and he was bound to win this woman.

"Yes!" Su Mei's voice was charming, and she reached out to remove the mask on her face.

Under the mask was a delicate and unbelievable face. Everyone present gasped. This person was actually the second young lady of the Su family who had a bad reputation recently.

Everyone couldn't believe it. The person they knew who could dance the entrance song well would definitely not be that kind of person. Now their eyes on her have completely changed.
