Lou Qingwu's ten fingers pressed against the strings, everyone watched with bated breath, Lou Qingwu's fingers moved, light white fingers flicked lightly, and immediately a smooth melody poured out, like flowing water, clear and spirited, The ears are already three points drunk. If it is a normal day, this kind of piano skills is already considered good.
It's a pity that there was Shangguan Yiyun before her.
Compared with Shangguan Yiyun's penetrating piano sound, Lou Qingwu's tune is still a bit dull.
The queen finally nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at Xia Hourui, who sat there with a pale face, in a trance.
The queen frowned inexplicably, did the child Qingwu have too much influence on Rui'er
What was wrong with Xiahou Rui made Xiahou Liuyun a little worried. He looked at Xiahourui, then at the woman with a calm expression, and couldn't help but ask: "Second brother, did Miss Lou lose?"
Xia Hourui froze, lowered his eyes sadly, but shook his head.
"Eh?" Xiahou Liuyun was taken aback, "Then second brother, who is this?"
He didn't study the piano, and he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad.
Originally thought that the second brother showed such an expression because Miss Lou lost, but the second brother shook his head again, but since Miss Lou is going to win, why
Xia Hourui raised his head again after a while, his eyes fell on Lou Qingwu in a daze, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "Miss Lou won, but she also lost."
"Why?"
How can someone both win and lose
"Miss Lou played the song "Shenli"."
"what is that?"
""Shenli" is based on the fact that the appearance is in harmony with the spirit. It was played by the former queen of Xiliang before she came out of the pavilion. Before the former queen became the queen of Xiliang, she was a famous beauty. There were many suitors. Wang Gu's former genius doctor, it's a pity that King Xiang is interested, but the goddess is ruthless. The former queen's song "Shen Li", played on six strings, is unprecedented. It's a pity that the song "Shen Li" is now Xiliang. The country's taboos are gradually being forgotten by people. Few people know about it. I was on a mission to Xiliang before and heard about it by chance, so I know."
"This... Since Miss Lou can play with six strings, isn't she a winner."
Xia Hourui shook his head sadly: "Miss Lou did win, but those who know it will naturally understand its subtlety, and those who don't know... will only feel a little worse."
The thin lips pursed silently, and a sigh flashed across Xia Hourui's eyes.
Xiahou Liuyun became anxious: "Others don't know, second brother, you can explain it, so Miss Lou will win."
Xia Hourui shook his head, if Miss Lou played "Shen Li", he would definitely say it.
Unfortunately…
"Miss Lou played this song "Shen Li" to tell me that she has no intentions for me."
So, even if he said it, it was just to embarrass Miss Lou.
Xiahou Liuyun was stunned, this...
Isn't Miss Lou interested in her second brother? Did he guess wrong
Had they all been mistaken
Staring blankly at Xia Hourui's lonely look, he couldn't help but sigh, if Miss Lou really didn't want to, he didn't know what to do.
…
At the same time, after Lou Qingwu finished playing "Shenli", she retracted her ten fingers, and all the sounds stopped abruptly.
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Shangguan Yiyun, those who admired him, those who were jealous, and most of them lamented that they did not have this blessing.
Lou Qingwu stood up, saluted gracefully, and returned to her seat.
But when he turned around and sat down, his eyes inadvertently fell on Xia Hourui's dim eyes, and he silently lowered his eyes: It seems that he has heard the meaning of his words.
When Xia Hourui was going to drink the poisoned wine for her, she felt that something might be wrong. She didn't think anything of it before, but if he didn't understand his mind now, he would be really hypocritical. But I have no intention of him, so instead of letting the situation get out of hand, I might as well take this opportunity to tell him what I think.
In her previous life, before she became a queen, she was not good at piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, piano and painting. Later, in order to surprise Xia Houqing, she put in a lot of effort.
Later, I checked the secrets and got the "Shenli" played by the former Xiliang Queen. She was just curious at the time, so she practiced for a few months before she was barely proficient. Later, because she really liked it, she persisted. I just didn't expect it to come in handy this time.
She also gambled that Xia Hourui had been sent to Xiliang as an envoy.
Knowing "Shenli" is also very possible.
That's why she used "Shenli" to tell Xia Hourui her thoughts, and only hoped that he could understand her good intentions.
It seems that this time, she succeeded.
The queen's eyes were a little far away, and it took a while to come back to her senses. She looked at Lou Qingwu with complicated eyes, and finally asked: "Qingwu, what did you play just now?"
Lou Qingwu stood up, "It's a sheet music that I got by chance, and it doesn't have a name, so I'm going to make your empress a joke."
"It's okay, it's okay, but it's a pity that I didn't get the lottery this time. I will compensate you in the future."
Lou Qingwu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Thank you, Madam."
The queen then waved her to sit down, and nodded to the nurse beside her.
The mother received the decree, and then said loudly: "After a lot of competition, the empress thinks that Miss Shangguan, the daughter of the Ministry of War, won the lottery. I don't know if everyone has any objections?"
Everyone: "I have no objection from my sons and daughters."
The queen looked at Concubine Ying, "Sister, what do you think?"
Concubine Ying raised her eyelids, her eyes fell on Shangguan Yiyun inadvertently, and the corners of her mouth curled up, "This is my sister's banquet, and this concubine dare not talk too much."
Only then was the queen satisfied, "Since everyone has no objection, then the prize today belongs to this child Yi Yun."
Upon hearing the words, Shangguan Yiyun walked out from his seat and knelt down in the center, "My daughter thank you for your kindness."
"Nurse, open the lottery."
The nanny stepped forward as she said, but only lifted the silk and satin, and it was a set of phoenix crown and Xiapei.
Everyone was stunned, although they knew about it earlier, they did not expect that the queen would directly prepare a set of phoenix coronets.
Can't help but look at Shangguan Yiyun enviously.
Then the queen smiled and said: "The second prince has reached the age of marriage, and I plan to take this opportunity to point out a marriage for the prince. This set of phoenix crown and Xiapei is for the future second prince and concubine. I don't know. Is Yiyun willing?"
Shangguan Yiyun kept his head down, as if frightened by the queen's phoenix face.
After hearing this, he fell silent.
After the queen frowned slightly, she kowtowed: "My daughter is willing."
The queen became happy again, and looked at Xia Hourui who was sitting on the prince's seat. The latter's handsome face was a little pale, and he didn't move.
Xiahou Liuyun pushed him anxiously, and then he slowly stood up, walked towards Shangguan Yiyun very slowly, and stood beside her, his tall figure cast a shadow.
