Lin Shuqian casually chatted with Jia Xinxin while searching in the crowd, and soon found the person he was looking for.
Qin Hanlin's wife, Li Shi, likes to add oil and vinegar and gossip. What happens to her has to be beyond recognition.
Before that, she confused black and white and said that Qi Hongyuan had an affair with the wife of the rebellious Deputy General Chen. When it was pointed out that the wife of Deputy General Chen had died for many years, she made up an old love story.
It was full of sound and color, as if she were lying under someone's bed.
Those who know Li's character also know that she is bullshit, but some people who don't know her believe it and even spread rumors.
With Qin Hanlin's level and family background, he was not qualified to be selected. It was Lin Shuqian who added in, just to rectify the Li family.
"Empress, I heard that all the ladies who are here today are good at temperament. Is that true?"
As soon as the Empress Dowager said this, everyone tightened their back.
The formal assessment begins.
Jia Xinxin glanced at the crowd and said with a soft smile, "ladies and gentlemen, who among you knows the melody?"
"The Council of courtiers!" Immediately someone in the crowd came forward.
A girl in a water blue dress stood up. She bowed her knees and said in a soft voice, "my daughter has learned the music under my father's guidance since childhood. If the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager don't dislike it, my daughter is willing to offer a song."
Jia Xinxin nodded slightly, and immediately someone brought up an Guqin.
The girl sat down on the side of the guqin, fingertips gently plucked the strings, played a song.
"Good." Lin Shu shallow voice praise, "reward."
The girl quickly got up to thank her, "thank you for the reward from the Empress Dowager. When she goes back, she will continue to learn piano skills from her father."
"Which family are you from?" Jia Xinxin asked.
"My daughter's father is Fan Yang, the Guanglu doctor of Honglu temple."
"Good." Jia Xinxin nodded and motioned to the people next to him to write down the name.
The girl finished the task of the family, just ready to get up and return to the crowd, but did not expect to be stopped by the Empress Dowager.
"It's no fun to come here one by one. Why don't we play a game. You come up and compete with the queen. The winner will stay and the loser will go on. How about picking out the best player?"
People immediately nervous up, which is the game? It is clearly a contest.
Presumably, the one in the family is more likely to win than the one who wins.
Some are rubbing their hands, others are too nervous to back out.
Miss Fan fought with others for three times. The fourth one was compared and several more. The Empress Dowager suddenly pointed out her hand and said with a smile, "whose lady is she from? Why don't you come here?"
People turned to see Li, Li also followed a Leng, "I?"
"It's you. Come on." Lin Shuqian nodded encouragingly and laughed at Mrs. Shen who was still on the stage.
Li's expression was a little embarrassed, "tell the Empress Dowager that I'm not good at playing piano. I'd better let my concubine's daughter..."
Li pulled the little girl beside him in front of him.
"Bold!" Lin Shuqian's expression changed instantly, "what do you mean when the AI family calls you up
Li just wanted to sophistry, saw the Empress Dowager made a gesture, immediately two tall eunuchs came forward, a left and a right to block her.
"Palm mouth!"
