Empress Fenghua

Chapter 394 Two Famous Actresses
Zhong Lichun walked into the hall with Huazhong. Although he deliberately came early, he still couldn't avoid everyone's eyes.Surrounded by the officials, there was a clean figure, and the prince looked back and smiled, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"His Royal Highness King Xin!" Although the loyal minister saluted, there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Hua Zhong couldn't help sneering in his heart, it seems that they are still a bunch of villains who are stalking people, I really don't know how many people in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are still loyal to the Prince.Hua Zhong couldn't help but looked at Zhong Lichun pitifully, no matter what others were like, he always had a personable and awe-inspiring smile, and never cared!
"My lords, you are so polite!" Zhong Lichun smiled tactfully, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"You and I are brothers, so why bother to be polite?" Prince Hou looked at Hua Zhong with a provocative smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time, but Madam is much more luxurious. It seems that Xinwang's Mansion is indeed better than my Palace's Yiyuan Hall to support people!"

Although the loyal ministers didn't dare to laugh loudly, they all knew the reason and whispered and sniggered below.

Hua Zhong's heart was shocked, but he didn't expect that Prince Hou would dare to say it blatantly. Although nothing happened between him and him, it was not the case in his memory.In this way, Zhong Lichun became the laughing stock of civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty!

Zhong Lichun calmly embraced Hua Zhong's shoulders, very gentle, "His Royal Highness doesn't know something, but Hua Zhong is actually a gentle and virtuous woman. Not only is she proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is also very good at dancing. Reading poetry and books, not only is she beautiful, but she is also a woman who is hard to find in the world! This king is lucky to have her!"

Everyone couldn't help being stunned, and their anger was a little weird.Hua Zhong looked at Zhong Lichun even more suspiciously, Zhong Lichun smiled softly, "Are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?"

Prince Hou couldn't help sneering, "Then the letter king has picked up the treasure? When Huazhong was in the Yiyuan Hall, I didn't think much of it, and she was just a fireworks girl, not too outstanding."

"Actually, she is very good, it just depends on whether others understand and appreciate it. Speaking of it, I have to thank His Royal Highness, otherwise I will miss such a beautiful woman as Hua Zhong!" Zhong Lichun's tone was indifferent but warm, as if it was true .

Hua Zhong's heart couldn't help but move, since Zhong Lichun had already started preparing for the battle, how could he not stand by him if he defended himself like this?

"Hua Zhong is just a firework girl who can be loved so much by the prince. Hua Zhong is really ashamed. She can only use Hua Zhong to repay the prince's love and understanding." Everyone couldn't help but be dumbfounded by his demeanor.Hua Zhong looked at Prince Hou, "Actually, Hua Zhong's skill is really nothing among women, and his ability to eat is naturally better than that of your ladies, but when it comes to skills, it must be Qingchen, one of the four famous actresses. His Royal Highness has been with Mrs. Qingchen for many years, how could he not know? Wasn't it because of Mrs. Qingchen's talent that he bowed down back then?"

A trace of coldness flashed across the prince's thick eyes. If he said yes, wouldn't that mean that he was a foolish and incompetent singer?If he said no, wouldn't it mean that Qingchen serves others with sex, and he is also greedy for women?There are traps on the left and right, this woman is really not a thing in the pool!

Prince Hou immediately smiled in relief, "Hua Chong is still as difficult to control as before. I wonder if Wang Xin is still in the taming stage, or is he unable to resist?"

Zhong Lichun raised the corners of his mouth, "How can a husband and wife get along with each other whether they are submissive or not, respect each other, and raise their eyebrows together, that's how things flow. How can a woman like Hua Zhong need to fight, I love you so much!"

The prince snorted coldly, and was about to speak when he heard Zhong Lichen's voice.

"What are you guys discussing? Hurry up and take your seat!" Zhong Lichen seemed to be in a good mood, with a bit of a smile on his face.

"See Your Majesty!" Everyone quickly saluted, and after a sound of rustling clothes, they sat down.Hua Zhong sat in front with Zhong Lichun, and beside the emperor sat a dignified and tall woman in royal blue palace attire, her hair was in a bun like a cloud, her makeup was dignified and deep, but she couldn't conceal her beauty and dignity.

"That's Queen Wang!" Zhong Lichun said softly from the side, "I heard it's my mother's sister!"

Wang Miaolian's younger sister?Hua Zhong couldn't help but look at her, the Wang family of Langya has really taken over the beauty of women in Dingguo!I saw that Queen Wang didn't really like being lively, she sat quietly by the side with a cold face.

Suddenly, Queen Wang looked at Hua Zhong, and when the two looked at each other, Hua Zhong felt a little complicated!
"What were you discussing just now? All the ministers seem to be very interested, so let me hear it!" Zhong Lichen looked at the crowd with a smile, and finally his eyes fell on Prince Hou.

Prince Hou was slightly embarrassed, "This matter is just a joke between us brothers. It's not elegant, so let's not talk about it! So as not to spoil the interest of the emperor and the empress."

The emperor laughed loudly, "No problem! Today is my banquet, but it is also the Queen's birthday. The queen doesn't like extravagance, so I didn't inform everyone in advance. Today is all about drinking and talking, don't be polite! Just listen and listen Yes."

The emperor is looking forward to Prince Hou too much, not to mention that there is Zhong Lichun beside him who is ready to inherit the throne at any time. He naturally doesn't like Prince Hou to cause troubles because of women, so he never likes to mention Qingchen.Prince Hou stood there in embarrassment, not knowing what to say or not to say...

"Actually, I was just joking with King Xin. King Xin cared for Mrs. Hua Zhong in every possible way, saying that Mrs. Hua Zhong is talented, proficient in poetry, poetry, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so everyone was pleasantly surprised." The crown prince smiled slyly, " Today is the birthday of the empress mother, and there has been no sound of silk and bamboo in the palace for a long time, why not invite Mrs. Hua Zhong to sing and dance. What do you think, the emperor?"

A trace of coldness flashed across Zhong Lichun's eyes, if Hua Zhong was asked to perform the dance, wouldn't Hua Zhong's status be lowered, if not, then...

Zhong Lichun was about to get up to speak, but was held back by Hua Zhong, who signaled him to be calm with comforting eyes.

"Oh?" There was an unfathomable look in the emperor's eyes, and he didn't say anything else.

Hua Zhong stood up with a dignified and polite manner, "Your Majesty, Hua Zhong is not as His Royal Highness the Prince Hou said, it is just a small skill, how can he show his shame in front of the Emperor and Empress? Talking about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, music and dance, silk and bamboo, in fact, there is a person present Hua Zhong admires her position. Everyone must have heard of the four famous actresses in the world, Weicheng is full of rain and dust, and guesthouses are green and willows look new!"

Sitting behind Prince Hou, Qingchen was slightly taken aback, her eyes were full of coldness, and her delicate makeup seemed to be condensed together.

Hua Zhong smiled, "Among them, She Qing is the first of the four famous actresses, and Qingchen is the second. His Royal Highness has such a talented woman with outstanding skills, how can he shirk his filial piety to perform dances for the queen? "

Prince Hou's face turned cold, and the princess Su Yan beside him also frowned, looking at Hua Zhong impatiently.When she was in the Eastern Palace, perhaps Su Yan still took care of Hua Zhong, so at this moment she felt as if she had been demolished, but seeing Qing Chen being pushed to the forefront, she was very happy!
The emperor glanced back and forth between the two, a bit gloomy, and the other ministers and concubines also sat quietly in their seats, not saying a word.

"Madame Hua Zhong is right, I have never seen the demeanor of the four famous actresses before!"

Everyone couldn't help being taken aback, the one who said this was the queen who was sitting next to Zhong Lichen!
Queen Wang is... speaking for Wang Xin and Hua Zhong?

Zhong Lichen looked at Queen Wang with a smile, "The Queen also wants to watch Qingchen's performance?"

Empress Wang's face was still indifferent, "Qingchen is a junior, and she's not a real wife, so it's not hard to belittle her by performing for this palace, right?"

"Since the queen is interested, let's do it this way!" The emperor said indifferently, "Since the Prince's Mansion is performing dances, then the Prince Xin's Mansion should not be left behind. Since Chun'er values ​​Hua Chong so much, let Hua Zhong also join her." Perform, only after light dust."

Zhong Lichun's expression froze, and he softly asked Hua Zhong beside him, "If you don't want to, I will definitely not let you suffer!"

Hua Zhong couldn't help smiling, "I, Ning Hua Zhong, is full of talent and I don't know where to show it. I finally got a chance, so why do you want to destroy it? Don't worry, I came to Dingguo to compete with Qingchen!"

Hua Zhong looked at Qing Chen with a pale face, and stared at herself in the crowd, full of hatred and disdain!
