Chapter 725: Talent show
Emperor Hongyuan said: "Not only did Princess Li play the piano well, but also Xue Fei's Fei Xian dance, the two complemented each other perfectly, making each other interesting and pleasing to the eye. Come, appreciate."
"Thank you, the emperor." Yun Ruoyue and Concubine Xue knelt down to thank you.
After thanking you for your kindness, some eunuchs brought the rewards they had prepared earlier and rewarded them.
The reward is two top jade Ruyi, one for each person, it is fair.
When Yun Ruoyue and Xue Fei took over Yu Ruyi, they inadvertently glanced at each other, with an expression of sympathy in their eyes, and they returned to their seats after receiving Yu Ruyi.
Seeing everyone complimenting Yun Ruoyue and Concubine Xue, the queen felt very jealous. She felt that the two performed so well, and it was a slap in the face.
Just now they thought that Concubine Xue could not dance the Flying Fairy Dance. They wanted to embarrass her and make her make a fool of herself. However, she surprised everyone and received the emperor's reward, which made her feel extremely angry.
She was very upset in her heart, but she still resisted the upset, stood up, and smiled softly towards Emperor Hongyuan: "The emperor, there have been so many ladies and ladies at this palace banquet today, didn't you prepare the prize? Let the ladies show off their talents. If you get the first place, you will be rewarded with a lottery. In the past years, your lottery has been excellent. What kind of lottery have you prepared for everyone this year?"
It is also the Queen's responsibility to let the guest and host have fun. She also has a few ladies from the Su family. She wants these ladies to perform, show the limelight, and find some good marriages, which is also helpful to the Su family.
Emperor Hongyuan thought for a while, then took off a lustrous dragon-shaped jade pendant from his waist and said: "There are noble guests this year, as long as it is a woman, married or unmarried, you can participate. The content of the performance is arbitrary. Chess, calligraphy and painting, poems, songs, dances and dances are all possible. I will order people to give each of you a sign, and after the women have performed, everyone will vote for them. The one with the most signs is the winner. This For the first place, I will reward the dragon-shaped jade pendant that has followed me for ten years. The second place is to give gold eight hundred taels, and the third place is to give gold five hundred taels."
When the ladies below listened, they all held their own instruments, eager to try them.
They came to participate in the palace banquet, and their favorite part was this link.
In this session, you can perform your own talents. If the emperor, the prince and the prince, or the son of a noble minister, they can find a good marriage.
Therefore, every year at the Lantern Festival banquet, the noble ladies dress themselves beautifully, striving to win the prize.
This year, the emperor's color head was actually his portable jade pendant. This is the most important thing. Although this kind of jade pendant has no special effect, if anyone has the emperor's jade pendant, it must be worthy of face.
Not only can this be a family heirloom, but at a critical moment, it may also save your life.
"Well, this year's lottery is very precious. Girls, you can start performing on stage." The Queen said.
This was just a casual test, so there was no distinction between who came first. As soon as the queen had finished speaking, the lady stood up holding the piano, and came to the stage generously to play the piano for everyone.
In the audience, the guests and foreign envoys intertwined and toasted to each other to drink together, it was a peaceful atmosphere.
Since the lady’s piano was very ordinary, and only halfway through, the daring prince said by Jiujin, “What is this? It’s like a silly sound, it’s not good at all, so let’s go back. Don't waste everyone's time."
