The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Chapter 235 Slap in the face (two more)

In late March, the envoys of Liang Guo arrived in the capital of Zhao Guo.

Yuan Shoufu, the minister of Honglu Temple and the Marquis of Xuanping went to the gate of the city to greet him in person.

Originally, Marquis Xuanping didn't want to come, but he didn't finish the last time, and the emperor said that if he went to greet the envoys of Liang, the task of the punishment would be cancelled.

Xuanping Marquis reluctantly went to the city gate, where Diaoerlang was crooked in the carriage, and even Yuan Shoufu could hardly see it.

However, as soon as Liang's envoys arrived, the state of the Marquis of Xuanping took on a new look.

He got off the carriage and stood there calmly, with thousands of flowers blooming like brocade, he was imposing and elegant as jade.

No wonder the emperor had to let him come to greet the envoy, but his face was simply the face of Zhao.

Officials from both sides greeted each other, and Xuanping Hou couldn't drag two cultural farts on weekdays, so naturally he didn't talk much at this time.

Therefore, the outside world's evaluation of Xuanpinghou has always been cold and cherishing words like gold.

The envoys of Liang Guo lived in a garden of the royal family, very close to the palace.

In the evening, the crown princess held a banquet in the Qilin Hall of the palace to wash away the dust for Liang's envoys.

"Princess, princess! It's time to get up!"

Princess Rui slept soundly when she was suddenly shaken by female officer Xu.

She opened her eyes blankly: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Madam Xu looked at her confused look, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "You forgot there was a banquet at night, it's time to get up and dress up."

"Isn't it still early?" Princess Rui glanced at the sky and continued to doze.

After she was pregnant, she was sleepy a lot, and female officer Xu didn't dare to pull her hard, so she stayed by the bed and let her sleep for half an hour before calling her up.

Princess Rui took a shower, put on the heavy royal attire, put on a bead hairpin ring, and entered the palace with a dark face.

The third prince, Prince Rui, had already entered the palace, and had been following the eldest prince, Prince Ning, to receive the envoys.

Princess Rui saw him from a distance and waved at him, but he didn't see it.

"Princess!" Xu female officer reminded in a low voice.

Princess Rui sighed: "I know, I know, rules, manners, manners."

On the steps of the Qilin Hall are the Emperor, Empress Xiao and Concubine Zhuang.

Concubine Shu was grounded, Concubine Xian was ill, and the rest of the concubines were not qualified to attend such a banquet.

In the long hall, the envoys of Liang State sit on the left, and the royal family and humerus ministers of Zhao State sit on the right.

Princess Rui sat on the mat,

Xu Nuguan Xun sat on the wooden floor behind her, ready to serve her at any time.

King Rui came over for a while and was called away by the emperor. Liang Guo also came to the royal family this time, and several princes were scrambling to show their faces in front of the emperor and the Liang family.

The banquet started soon.

Tonight's banquet was hosted by the Crown Princess. No matter how Princess Rao Shirui didn't like Wen Linlang, she had to admit that her banquet was a good one.

From the dishes to the arrangement, from the staff to the program, every step is flawless.

After several entertainment programs, the Crown Princess arranged the highlight: "In order to express her welcome to all the envoys, next, Princess Rui of Zhao Kingdom will play a piece "Shocking" with Xie Leshi, the first court musician of Zhao Kingdom. Hong Zhaoying"."

Wait, isn't it solo?

When did it become an ensemble?

"Jinghong" is a piece of music by Liang Guo, created by Yueying, the first musician of the Six Kingdoms. The original song is divided into two parts.

It's just that the score of "Photography" has been lost.

This piece was indeed played in ensemble of qin and flute at the beginning, but the flute is more suitable for "Jinghong", and the guqin is more suitable for "Zhaoying".

If the guqin and the flute are used to perform "Jinghong", the guqin will easily be pressed down by the flute.

Most people are not aware of these details, and only Princess Rui and a few people who are very proficient in rhythm may understand this.

Did Wen Linlang deliberately make her look ugly?

As soon as the thought in Princess Rui's heart flashed, she heard the palace staff report: "Xie Leshi suddenly fell and can't be injured."

Everyone was surprised.

Princess Rui thought she was going to play solo next, but then she heard from Liang Guo, a young man in a navy blue robe stood up and said, "I heard that Princess Rui's piano skills are unparalleled, and she is not talented, I would like to join forces with you. Princess Rui played an ensemble."

"This is..." The emperor looked strangely at the young man who appeared out of nowhere.

Prince Yu of Liang State introduced: "His name is Wuming, and he is the direct disciple of Lord Moon Shadow."

Everyone was startled again, with envy and admiration in their eyes.

Lord Moon Shadow has always been a legend in the Six Kingdoms. They may never see that Lord in their lifetime, but it is also an honor to meet his direct disciple.

Oh, it turned out not to make her look ugly, but to make her a match for others.

It will really make the most of it.

Princess Rui remained silent.

Wuming held the flute and cupped his hands: "Princess Rui, please."

Princess Rui gritted her teeth: "Bring the piano."

"Yes." Xu female officer went outside the hall and brought the piano case.

Someone had already set up desks and cushions in the center of the hall.

Princess Rui takes her seat.

Madam Xu opened the piano case, and she was stunned.

This is not the princess' piano!

Seeing that she didn't understand, Princess Rui glanced sideways, but with just one look, she almost fainted!

What about her Qiuyueqin? How did it become Fuxiqin?

The two kinds of pianos are only different in style and have the same sound, but she is used to using her own piano, and she never uses imitation pianos.

However, she also recognized that this was Gu Jiao's qin, because the scorched part at the end of the qin was too iconic, and the word Fuxi was engraved on the body of the qin, so it was a bit too fake.

She had a very fresh memory.

The piano case is hers.

Of course she wouldn't think that Gu Jiao coveted one of her guqin, so she secretly exchanged the two of them's guqin, it must be the little eunuch who made a mistake.

"Ouch! Is your Zhao country so poor that you have to use a scorched broken piano?"

One of the generals of Liang who spoke, the status of Liang was above Zhao, and the envoys didn't take Zhao's attention at all, and a few words of ridicule were considered light.

A civil servant beside the general echoed: "If Zhao Guo lacks guqin, we Liang Guo can give you a few for free!"

The envoys all laughed, giggling.

Princess Rui was so angry that she wanted to blow their dog's head off!

Concubine Zhuang's expression became a little ugly.

The talent this time was actually recommended by her to the Crown Princess, or in front of Queen Xiao and the concubines of the harem, so as not to give the Crown Princess a chance to refuse.

She had a good starting point, and hoped that Princess Rui would shine at the banquet and fight for their lineage.

But the anger has not yet been fought, and the face is lost first.

"What do you think, the third daughter-in-law? Can't even get a good piano?"

Concubine Zhuang was furious.

Queen Xiao is also angry, don't look at her and King Ning's lineage fighting to the death, but that's the truth of shutting the door and fighting, how can you lose your face to another country?

The emperor's face also sank.

Using a broken qin to entertain Liang's envoys is a joke, and it's easy to fall for the truth. Originally, Liang's trip was to cut the fat of Zhao's country, and now there is reason to cut it more fiercely.

"Slave, go get a piano!" Xu female officer said.

"It's too late." Princess Rui shook her head, her face was already lost, and changing them would only make them more embarrassed and embarrassed.

Princess Rui closed her eyes, and regardless of whether Lord Yueying's disciple was willing to play with her family, she played the first note first.

Just one note made everyone present stunned.

Wuming was the quickest to respond. When he saw Princess Rui started to play, he hurriedly turned the flute in the palm of his hand and put it on his lips to keep up with Princess Rui's rhythm.

This piece was created by Wuming's teacher. Wuming has practiced it many times, not to mention that he still has the advantage of musical instruments. No matter how you look at it, it will be dominated by him.

Because of the unfamiliarity with this qin, and because of the interference of thoughts, Princess Rui did not enter the state at first.

But gradually, she herself was attracted by the sound of the piano.

How can there be such a good piano? How can there be such a beautiful sound?

Fuxi's qin sound suddenly overshadowed the flute's limelight.

Everyone looks different.

Empress Xiao murmured, "This, what kind of qin... Was the Fuxi qin you heard in Liang State so good?"

When the crown princess was young, she traveled to Liang State with the Zhao State mission.

The Crown Princess looked at Princess Rui in the center of the hall with a complicated expression: "I have only seen it before, but I have no honor to hear it."

After the song was finished, the deathly silence in the hall was obviously too beautiful, and everyone was still immersed in the sound of Princess Rui's piano.

Suddenly, the prince of Liang Guo stood up and applauded Princess Rui first: "Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Two in a row were given to Princess Rui. Although the tune was good, the flute didn't take up much, and all their attention was attracted by the melodious sound of the qin.

The one who just laughed at Princess Rui didn't dare to say anything.

If this is a broken qin, I am afraid that there is no guqin in that day.

Wuming looked at Princess Rui, and then looked at the guqin in front of her: "My master's Yueying Fuxi Qin is not as good as the qin. I dare to ask Princess Rui, where did this qin come from?"

The Moon Shadow Fuxi Qin is already the most perfect imitation Qin in the Six Kingdoms. It is better than it. What kind of Qin is that? Really Fuxi?

If others say that, it may not have any weight, but Wuming is the direct disciple of Yueying.

The emperor suddenly laughed.

The third daughter-in-law gave him a long face again.

Can't say it's wrong.

Princess Rui thought about it for a while, and said solemnly, "Ask a friend to borrow it."

Nameless: "That friend is—"

Princess Rui: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you."

Wuming bowed his hands and returned to his seat.

With the wonderful performances of Princess Rui and Fuxiqin, the carefully arranged repertoires behind the Crown Princess all became boring.

Everyone only remembered this qin and Princess Rui who played it.
