Chapter 146

Nangong Chen, who was praised very much, was quite proud, but he was still modest and said a few words to show his filial piety.

When she was about to step down, Luo Qingshuang didn't return to her seat. Suddenly, she turned to look at Luo qingluan and said with a smile, "I don't know what gift her sister prepared for her majesty. It's time. Don't hide it." Her voice was not big or small, just so that people around her could hear it. When she spoke, she immediately attracted the attention of people around her, even the emperor of Western Chu heard it.

Empress Wang herself is very fond of Luo qingluan. Even her pregnancy is favored by her. When Luo Qingshuang says so, she is also interested in Luo qingluan, With a smile, "yes, I remember that qingluan's talent is not inferior to any gold! When you heard the last Mid Autumn Festival moon banquet, you still remember the lingering sound of the palace. Today qingluan prepared it for his majesty, but you still play it?"

Luo qingluan even planned to leave after a while. Unexpectedly, he was encouraged by Luo Qingshuang and attracted attention. Now she can't hide. She glanced at Luo Qingshuang in front of her, got up and saluted and said, "if your majesty and empress want to hear a song, qingluan should play a song."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a whisper around, and Wei Chi Lianqing's face changed.

"What, are the Luo sisters intentional? Obviously, Princess Yilan just played the piano, and now she wants to come again. It's clear that she wants to steal the limelight from Princess Yilan."

"She's married to the king of Chu. How can she still think of Her Highness the prince? It's shameless!"

"The two sisters, one married to the fifth Prince and the other to the king of Chu, are really clever people. How can we compete with each other?"

"Who doesn't know that one sings and one agrees!"

Luo qingluan didn't think so much. Unexpectedly, a word aroused the dissatisfaction of others and thought that she wanted to steal the limelight with Wei Chi Lianqing. In fact, there were some gold stars who played the piano before, and everyone didn't respond like this. It can only be said that the women's jealousy of her has reached the peak. They are eager to do something when they can squeeze and suppress her.

As soon as her eyes turned, Luo qingluan really saw Wei Chi Lianqing's face was heavy and her silver teeth clenched at her. As soon as she saw it, she immediately turned to one side and looked dismissive but disgusted. She was very noble.

"Sister, since you said it, play it quickly. Your majesty and your mother are still waiting."

Then, Luo Qingshuang's lowered voice sounded beside him, showing strong Schadenfreude, "but if my sister plays well, she will offend the princess of Yilan. If she plays badly, her majesty and the queen will be unhappy. It's really difficult. But my sister is so smart, she must know the choice?"

i see!

This Luo Qingshuang didn't forget to pit her even when she got married. Luo qingluan sneered in her heart, but her face didn't show at all.

Originally, she didn't intend to show off at the birthday banquet of the Western Chu emperor. Even Nalan's gift to the Western Chu emperor was deliberately selected, which was very common and even some couldn't get it. In order to avoid the fear of the Western Chu emperor and the jealousy of the ministers, it means that Nalan night has no heart of power ministers. Unexpectedly, he is now forced into a dilemma by Luo Qingshuang's words. It's neither playing nor not playing.

"Sister, it's a good plan." Low back to Luo Qingshuang, Luo qingluan sneered: "I've written down today's matter, and I'll talk to my sister later."

She didn't hear what Luo qingluan and Luo Qingshuang were saying. Queen Wang smiled when she agreed: "OK, I don't know what song qingluan is going to play today, but the palace can't wait."

The surrounding discussion disappeared, but Luo qingluan felt that those malicious eyes were even hotter, especially Wei Chi Lianqing and Nangong Waner, the three princesses sitting next to her. They looked at her with disgusting eyes, looked at her and didn't turn their heads. They whispered something, and didn't listen to her playing the piano at all.

It seems that if she really plays this piano, she will offend all the precious girls. But the queen opened her mouth again, and the emperor of Western Chu was waiting. There were envoys from other countries on the hall. Luo qingluan suddenly felt that he had been driven to the shelf.

Well, since you want her to perform, let her show off. She's not the only one who can play the piano!

Shi Shi ran went to the hall. Luo qingluan bowed to the emperor of Western Chu and the queen of the king and said, "Your Majesty, madam, originally qingluan wanted to play a song just now to celebrate his Majesty's birthday, but it suddenly occurred to me that many thousands of gold have played it today. I'm afraid I don't have new ideas if I play it again. If I don't change a program, will my madam agree?"

Slightly stunned, Queen Wang reacted and said with a smile, "since she doesn't play the piano, what does qingluan want to perform?"

Standing in the hall and receiving the unexpected eyes of countless people, Luo qingluan said, "I think your majesty and your mother like the picture sent by the fifth Prince just now, otherwise... Qingluan can also draw a picture and paint on the spot. What does your mother think?"

Now even the emperor of Western Chu was interested and his eyes brightened: "Oh, Princess Chu can draw?" He looked at Nalan night and said, "Ziqing, do you know your wife can draw? Did you teach her?"

"Your Majesty, that's not true." Nalan said faintly at night.

"Hehe, even you don't know? That's even more important." The emperor of Western Chu laughed and immediately asked someone to place the four treasures of study on the hall and said, "Princess Chu, since you want to perform and paint on the spot, let's start. If the painting is good, I will be rewarded. If the painting is bad..."

Hearing this, Luo Qingshuang couldn't help but get nervous and was secretly happy. Unexpectedly, the emperor of Western Chu turned around and said with a smile, "then Ziqing, you can perform another program. I remember your Xiao blowing is good. I haven't heard it for a long time."

When Luo Qingshuang hated her, she realized that she had lost her calculation this time. Unexpectedly, Emperor Xi Chu loved Wu and Wu and tolerated Luo qingluan to this extent. Glancing at the beautiful, heroic and extraordinary Nalan night, Luo Qingshuang became more and more jealous. Although Nangong Chen, as the fifth prince, is also her beloved man, she can't compare with Nalan night in terms of power. This really makes her unwilling.

But at present, she has nothing to do. She just hopes that Luo qingluan's painting is not good and will be greatly ugly later.

She knows Luo qingluan can't draw since she was a child. Can she draw well after staying with Nalan for a while?

Dozens of pairs of eyes on the Hall fell on Luo qingluan. Everyone was very interested. Even thousands of precious women were less jealous and more curious. Can the second Miss Luo family not only play the piano well, but also draw?

Without paying attention to the eyes of the people around him, Luo qingluan smiled and said in a voice, "Your Majesty, I don't need pen and ink to draw today. Just ask someone to find some thin carbon strips."

"Oh, can carbon bars still paint? It's new." The emperor of Western Chu and queen Wang became more and more interested. They soon got a lot of thin carbon strips, which were made of the best gold wire and charcoal, and soon put them in front of Luo qingluan.

Not in a hurry, not to mention the stunned eyes of the people around him, Luo qingluan chose one of the moderate thickness, but did not start writing immediately. Instead, she looked at the emperor and queen of the Western Chu, and then began to drop her hand. Without drawing a few times, she looked up at the empress for a moment before continuing to draw. Soon, several simple black lines were outlined by carbon strips on the paper, and a general outline jumped on the paper.

Some people reacted. The princess of Chu was so brave. Instead of using carbon strips, she painted on the spot according to the emperor and queen of Western Chu!

It's not that no court painter has painted for the emperor and empress, but people don't think Luo qingluan can have the skills of a court painter. Moreover, there are also several paintings in the study of the Western Chu emperor, which are portraits made by painters for the Western Chu emperor in the past, but they have always been collected in boxes and have not been hung out. Now the princess of Chu is so big that she tries to catch up with these palace painters to please the empress?

It's too much!

However, the empress didn't stop, and the ministers didn't make a sound. Only those who did good smiled secretly. If Luo qingluan painted the empress badly, even if it was a little different, he would be punished, and the gift would be punished.

As time went by, Luo qingluan was distracted. The pen and ink on the paper became thicker and thicker, and gradually completed two vivid portraits. The people around couldn't see clearly. They just looked on coldly and secretly looked forward to it. Some still thought about how to pick a thorn. Luo Qingshuang made up his mind. If Luo qingluan's painting was a little bad, she would take the opportunity to make it look good.

Almost half an hour later, Luo qingluan finally stopped.

Put down the pen, she took a step back and nodded: "Your Majesty, empress, I have finished painting."

"Bring it up." The Western Chu emperor hurried.

Immediately, the eunuch hurried down the hall, walked to Luo qingluan, carefully spread the picture scroll in his hand and sent it to the emperor of Western Chu. The crowd only waited for the unhappy eyes of the Western Chu emperor, but they didn't expect to see his eyes suddenly shine, and they couldn't believe what they saw.

"This... This is..." the emperor of Western Chu, sitting on the Dragon chair, was stunned and looked at the painting in front of him. He was stunned and didn't know what to say.

Queen Wang just looked at it, and her eyes were round. Then she was happy, looked at it with surprise and joy, and nodded repeatedly for a long time: "OK, it's really good! The palace has never seen such a painting before. If it wasn't for her own eyes, I couldn't believe it was a painting."

"Too similar, too similar!" The emperor of Western Chu murmured to himself, and even his hands trembled.

The ministers were confused by the performance of the empress and the emperor. What's going on? What did Princess Chu draw? Why did the emperor and queen of Western Chu be so shocked, but inexplicably happy?

After a long time, the emperor of Western Chu finally came back to his mind: "it's really good. I've never seen such a painting before. It's really wonderful! Your family might as well have a look. Who can recognize what kind of technique it is and how it can be painted so vividly."

The eunuch holding the painting immediately unfolded the scroll, each holding a paragraph, and stood in front of the hall to show it to the ministers.

Suddenly, all the people took a look, and a cold sound sounded. Everyone stared directly at the picture scroll. They saw the two people painted on the paper, the living emperor of Western Chu and the queen of Wang. The emperor and empress are sitting in the hall, looking carefully and noble. If they were not painted with a black carbon pen, I'm afraid some people would think they look at the eyes. The emperor and empress ran into the picture scroll.

So lifelike!

This is everyone's first thought.
