Mrs. Pinqiao

Chapter 108 The Orchid in Wine
The so-called flower viewing banquet must be full of flowers. Yin Qingqing prefers orchids, and all kinds of orchids from all over the world are gathered here. The craftsmen tried their best to make all the orchids bloom on this day, and the whole palace was immersed in the elegance of orchids.

Under the darkness of the night, the palace was brightly lit, and it would not be affected by the darkness at all. Many female relatives presented their talents and treasures, just to make the queen smile.

But Yin Qingqing has been lacking in interest.

Seeing half of it, I wanted to sleep, and leaned softly in Li Yan's arms, like a boneless cat, looking down with blurred eyes.

Li Yan lowered his head and asked her softly: "Is Qingqing tired?"

Yin Qingqing half-raised her eyelids, the laziness in her eyes was enough to confuse people's minds, and her voice was crisp and soft: "I just feel that these talents are too common, and I feel a little tired."

Li Yan smiled and patted her on the shoulder, "You have always been picky, how many people in this world can catch your eyes?"

"It's still the emperor who understands his concubines..." Yin Qingqing glanced at Li Jue intentionally or unintentionally, and nestled in his arms again, letting out that confusing low smile.

Going up in order, the next performer should be Ning Zimo. He stood up unhurriedly, with a vague smile on his lips, and he has attracted many daughters. heart of.He saluted slightly, pointed to the top, "Emperor and Empress, my minister's gift is in the sky, please look up."

Everyone raised their heads at the same moment, and at that moment, a cloud-piercing arrow shot into the sky with a "swish", exploded with a "snap", scattered into a flower, and fell down in various colors, thrilling, followed by One after another, they exploded into densely packed flowers, one upon another, too charming and gorgeous.

The crowd exclaimed, and they all stood up, looking up at the countless fireworks. While amazed, it was a kind of fear of the unknown.

"It's so beautiful." Even Yin Qingqing couldn't help standing up, shaking her head and sighing, "This is the real flower feast."

Ning Zimo clasped his hands in salute, and said loudly: "I respectfully wish the empress will stay young forever, be happy and healthy, and be a mother to the world."

Yin Qingqing covered her lips and smiled, her face was not inferior to that of fireworks, "Ning Xiang is really different, every gift he presents wins my heart."

"Can the minister ask the queen for a reward?"

Ning Zimo had never asked for a reward before, but this time he asked for a reward, even Li Yan became curious, "I don't know what Aiqing wants to ask for?"

"Ask for a marriage."

He spoke powerfully and concisely. It can be said that some people are happy and some are worried. The women who admired him were all heartbroken. How could such a suave and suave person accept his heart?
Yin Qingqing laughed softly, even her eyes were filled with smiles, "Which woman fell into Ning Xiang's eyes? Did you come to Bengong here with all your heart and soul?"

Li Jue drank calmly all the time, but Coco Li, who was sitting next to him, seemed to be caught by a cat in his heart, restless, and her handkerchief was wrinkled by her.

Ning Zimo raised his head and explained calmly: "Because she is an orphan, so she has no background, and I cannot marry her as the main wife, so I want to ask the emperor to accept her as a righteous sister, so as to fulfill this marriage."

Li Yan laughed out loud twice, and deliberately joked: "I don't accept righteous sisters with unknown origins, Ai Qing, tell me who it is?"

Ning Zimo smiled, and his expression was a bit gentle, "The emperor knows that the last time I submitted a memorial to request the reform of the imperial examination, it was for her request..."

The teacup in Li Jue's hand suddenly trembled, and he suddenly raised his head, "Your Majesty, Prince Jing's Mansion still has talents to offer."

"Brother Huang..." Coco Li pulled his sleeves and said in a low voice, "The dance I prepared is definitely not as good as his, it doesn't matter if I don't dance..."

Li Jue lightly pressed her hand, got up and went to the stage to salute, "My younger brother has also prepared a talent, the emperor will not be too late to make a decision after watching it."

Today's flower viewing banquet is very lively. Ning Xiang, who never asks for rewards, asks for rewards, and King Jing, who never shows his talents, presents his talents.

Ning Zimo turned his head to look at him, his gaze was a bit sharp, and he smiled, "It seems that the prince is going to compete with the lower officials."

"The emperor's reward, of course everyone wants it." After Li Jue said calmly, he turned around and drew a guard's long sword, and wiped it with his hand. The cold light hit his expressionless face, making him even more terrified.

The smile on Yin Qingqing's face gradually faded, and with his actions, he fell deeper into the memory, unable to extricate himself for a long time.

What Li Jue danced was a sword dance, and the cold light sword moved flexibly in his hands, as if it was a part of his body, dancing smoothly and smoothly.

Gently pick up an orchid at the tip of the sword, let it walk on the edge of the sword, blend into the sword dance, and rise and fall with the beating of the body. It is obviously the sharpest sword and the weakest flower, but it can not hurt It is nothing, forming a pleasing scene.

The people in the audience couldn't help being amazed, they all knew that King Jing Li Jue's swordsmanship was superb, but they didn't know it was so good, it was simply unheard of and unseen.

Yin Qingqing didn't know when she stood up, she stared blankly at the person below, the orchid flower gently fell into her wine glass with the shaking of the sword body, and fell silently at the bottom of the glass, intact, elegant as if Flowers in the water.

A drop of tear fell gently into the wine glass.

"I respectfully wish the emperor and queen a long and boundless life, a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren, and a happy union for a hundred years."

She looked up suddenly, and the person in front of her was as indifferent as ever, but what she thought of was the third prince who smiled at her back then, lightly picking orchids with the tip of his sword, and pinning them into her hair, her heart was pounding at that moment, and she couldn't see him again to others.

Li Yan sighed and asked the people below: "What reward does King Jing want?"

"My younger brother accidentally met Jin Jiangbai, the current number one scholar. He is extremely talented and has unique insights. He is a rare talent. I boldly ask the emperor to appoint him as the servant of the household department and make the best use of his talents."

"I'm sure." Li Yan lowered his head and took Yin Qingqing into his arms, "I'm a little tired, my loves continue."

"Congratulations to the emperor, respect to the queen."

Yin Qingqing couldn't regain her senses for a long time, fell into Li Yan's arms, followed him to take her away, lost her mind all the way, and repeatedly asked the people around her: "Did you change, or did I change? Are you wrong, or I am wrong?" wrong?"

Li Yan hugged her tightly, "Qingqing is not wrong, and she hasn't changed, it's all my fault, it's my fault."

She looked up at him blankly, "How could it be the emperor's fault?"

"I'm responsible for making Qingqing laugh. It's my fault that Qingqing cried..."

Before Li Jue raised his head, Ning Zimo chuckled lightly, "The lower officials can make the queen laugh, but the lord can make the queen cry. It's really amazing."

He didn't want to pay attention, so he got up and left indifferently.

"The prince is really a nobleman of Jinjiang Bai. If the prince hadn't asked for a reward for him today, I'm afraid he would be sent to a remote place to be an unknown county magistrate."

Li Jue paused, "How do you know?"

Ning Zimo took two steps forward and lowered his voice, "Official positions are determined day and night by lower officials, so naturally they are all memorized... Hehe... There are more than a hundred people in the top three, I'm afraid the prince wants a reward. It's useless, it's possible to ask for a hundred..." He seemed to be in a better mood, and turned around with a handsome back.

Li Jue frowned more and more.
