Liu Wanting first glanced at Xia Yuyan and Wu Yuer proudly, then walked up to Queen Mother Zhou and saluted with a beaming look on her face, raised her pretty face, and smiled at Queen Mother Zhou.
"The Empress Dowager, Wan'er specially prepared a beautiful song for the Empress Dowager, called "Birds and Flowers". It is a famous song that has been lost for a long time. Legend has it that this piece of music is so wonderful that you can smell the faint fragrance of flowers. It can attract the harmonious singing of birds, Wan'er has been practicing it for a long time. "
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Yuyan and Wu Yuer'er flattened their mouths at the same time, with disdain on their faces.
Even with her frivolous and flamboyant look, the Queen Mother looked down upon her!
Empress Dowager Zhou smiled and took Liu Wanting's hand, then stroked her hair and put a pearl hairpin in her hair.
"Good boy, the Ai family knows your filial piety. It's just that the Ai family is a little tired today. I will announce that you will come to the palace and play the piano for the Ai family another day."
Liu Wanting's eyes widened and she was stunned.
The Queen Mother didn't even listen to the piano music she carefully prepared
"The Queen Mother..." How could she let go of this hard-won opportunity and want to talk again.
Su Jin had already interrupted her: "Miss Wan'er, it's already late. The Queen Mother has just recovered from a serious illness. She has to take a nap at this time every day. If you want to play the piano for the Queen Mother, there will be many opportunities in the future. Queen Mother I will call you into the palace again, so why be in a hurry?"
Liu Wanting immediately blushed and was dumbfounded.
Xia Yuyan reminded: "Sister Wan'er, you haven't thanked the Queen Mother for her kindness yet."
"Wan'er, thank you, Queen Mother." Liu Wanting's nails dug deeply into her palms, and she was so stunned that she almost vomited blood.
The Queen Mother Zhou waved to Xia Yuyan to come closer, and put on a walking stick for her, and said with a smile: "The Ai family is tired, and they are not as energetic as your young girls. Princess Dingyuan, please send the three girls out for the Ai family." Palace."
After saying that, she slowly stood up from the chair and said, "Emperor, please send the Ai family back."
Mo Chuan's deep eyes flashed with light: "Yes, Queen Mother."
He helped Queen Mother Zhou walk step by step towards Shoukang Palace.
The three girls behind him watched reluctantly as his tall and tall back slowly disappeared from sight. The excitement, excitement and joy before entering the palace were all gone, replaced by a feeling of loss.
Their wish to serve the emperor in the palace may never be realized again.
"You three girls, please."
Shen Ning knew that Queen Mother Zhou must have something to say to Mo Chuan alone and didn't want her to hear it, so she pulled herself away.
Hearing this, Wu Yue'er and Liu Wanting couldn't help but glare at her, feeling secretly hateful in their hearts.
Although they knew Shen Ning's identity, they still couldn't help but feel jealous of her.
Especially when they saw the emperor's eyes always lingering on her intentionally or unintentionally, both of them felt as if their five-flavor bottle had been overturned, and they felt unhappy in every way.
Xia Yuyan's attitude towards Shen Ning was much friendlier, especially after listening to one of Shen Ning's mountaineering poems. Her feelings for Shen Ning could be described as "admiration".
It's like looking up to a high mountain and longing for it.
"Princess, I hope you won't be offended by Yu Yan's offensive words before."
"Miss Yuyan, you can call me by my name from now on. I should be one year older than you. If you don't feel rude, you can call me sister Ning." Shen Ning smiled and held her hand.
