V1.C69

Zhuo Qing follows behind Lou Xi dance, lowers her head and moves slowly to the designated place.

There is a small space in the middle of the garden. There are five or six rows of stools on both sides of the space. Zhuo Qing and louxi dance are arranged in the first row on the right. After sitting down, Zhuo Qing closes her eyes and takes good care of herself. It's better to be out of sight!

After a while, the surrounding voice suddenly quieted down. Zhuo Qing opened her eyes and saw the empress dowagers of the East and the West meandering around surrounded by a group of eunuchs. On today's occasion, both of them made up a lot, but by contrast, Yang Zhilan's dress was relatively simple, with a kind smile on her face, while Lou Suxin was wearing an exaggerated dark red robe, with a gold belt showing her figure incisively and vividly. She wore a string of emerald green beads around her neck, with her arrogant look, which really made people dare not look down on her.

Two people in the garden of the main seat, all of them are neat half kneel salute way: "to participate in the two palace empress dowager, Empress Dowager Wan Fu Jin'an."

Zhuo Qing squats down slowly, and the haughty voice of Lou Suxin rings out faintly: "flat body."

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

After the salute, the ladies returned to their chairs and quietly lowered their heads, which was in sharp contrast to the noise just now.

Yang Zhilan looked at Lou Suxin. Seeing that she nodded her head, she said with a smile: "today, I invite you ladies and ladies to the palace for a banquet. The purpose is to select women with both ability and political integrity to perform at the ceremony. For Qiongyue, this is a matter of body. I don't want to say much about the mourning family. According to the old rules, it's OK to play piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing and dancing. The one with high skill wins. "

"Let's play the piano first. Which lady will come first?" Yang Zhilan finished, and glanced around with a smile. The women were still shy and timid, lowering their heads and whispering, but no one came out.

With a gentle smile, Yang Zhilan said, "everyone is so humble. Let's invite someone from the AI family to give us some advice."

"I've heard that the sisters of the Qing family are known as the most talented and beautiful women in the six countries. At the ceremony three years ago, Haoyue took out a landscape painting of Yongle. It was said that it was just the work of the three ladies. What do you think of the second thing you can see in the palace today? It's better to let Qingling, the eldest lady of the Qing family, do the elegant work of casting a brick to attract jade? " Finish saying, she also matchless care of see to Zhuo Qing.

The concubines sitting on one side also quickly echoed: "this is very good. I often hear people say that the young lady of the Qing family is very good at playing piano. She has been around for three days, and everyone who has heard of it praises it. Today, I finally have a chance to see it."

Originally, Zhuo Qing, who is still indifferent, opens her eyes and looks back at Yang Zhilan. Their eyes meet. Yang Zhilan still smiles lovingly, but Zhuo Qing's eyes are dark. Is that her purpose? It's revenge for her daughter to make a fool of her in front of everyone?!

Two people eyes confrontation, Yang Zhilan always with a smile, loud voice called: "come, prepare piano."

"Wait a minute." Zhuo Qing stands up and wants to make a fool of her. It's not easy.

After a standard bowing ceremony, Zhuo Qing looked up and said in a low voice: "thank you for your love. It's a pity that I was hurt on the way to Qiongyue. Many things in my memory are very vague. I can't remember all those familiar tunes now. I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you today." And Lou Xiyan together for so long, just look, she also learned a lot, dress well, what's the difficulty?!

Just as Yang Zhilan was about to open her mouth, Zhuo Qing pulled up Xi Wu, which was still inexplicable, and continued: "but I know that Xi Wu's piano skill is not below me. A few days ago, he talked with Su Mufeng about Xi Wu's piano skill, and he praised it. It's better to let Xi Wu throw a brick to attract jade. I won't let you down."

Lou Xi dance is a surprise at first, after reaction, she pinches Zhuo Qing's waist. This woman really dares to say! When did she talk to Mr. Su about her piano skills? When did Mr. Su praise her?! I don't even know who they are! Even a very familiar look!

Zhuo Qing is in pain, but she can't show any performance. This dead girl is so cruel. She's not thinking about her. Maybe she'll be a guest of the celebration performance, and her price will go up by then!

"Oh?" Yang Zhilan looked at Lou Suxin beside her and said with a smile, "elder sister, I can't imagine that Xiwu's piano skill has made such a breakthrough in recent years. In this case, let Xiwu play a piece."

Lou Suxin's haughty face finally eased a little. She said with a smile to Lou Xiwu: "Xiwu, then you can play a song."

"Yes." So far, there is no other way for Lou Xi dance except to stick to it.

Zhuo Qing breathes a sigh of relief. Lou Suxin's attitude towards Xiwu is so gentle. It seems that she really likes her. She doesn't have to worry about Xiwu. Even if she fails, no one dares to do anything to the Empress Dowager's niece!

Just about to sit down, Yang Zhilan still refused to let her go, deliberately said with a soft smile: "but listening to music is monotonous. Ling'er doesn't remember the melody. She always remembers to write. The last Yongle landscape painting still exists in the imperial study. Today, ling'er will make another one for them to see. "

This clear praise dark derogatory words, listen to Zhuo Qing some angry, Yang Zhilan is deliberately with her on the bar, right! When she got up again, Zhuo Qing's face was obviously gloomy: "IZhuo Qingcai just said a word, was interrupted by a cold female voice: "back to the empress dowager, on weekdays, our sisters all like to paint together to amuse themselves, today let my concubine and sister together, to paint for you, I don't know if it's OK."

Zhuo Qing looks up and says that it's Qingfeng. She's actually there, but she doesn't even look at a group of women in front of her. It's not surprising that she doesn't find her. But how about painting together? Is she hurting her or helping her?! Is studying ink on one side a painting together?!

Yang Zhilan looked at Lou Suxin again and asked with a smile, "what does my sister think?" It's just that she doesn't need to embarrass her any more. The result will be the same after a while.

Zhuo Qing obviously has no good luck of Lou Xi dance. Lou Su Xin glances at her and hums coldly: "it's OK. I'd like to see what kind of talent the Qing sisters are!" Let Xiyan for her several times into the palace to see the woman, she would like to see, is how special woman!

Pointing to the beautiful lotus in front of the pool, Yang Zhilan said with a smile: "sister, it's the time for lotus to bloom. It's better for them to paint and play the piano by the lotus pool, and the beautiful flowers will echo each other. Isn't it a beautiful thing?"

"Not bad." Lou Suxin said: "come on, prepare the painting tools."

"Yes."

After a while, a few eunuchs with neat hands and feet have moved a large table to the lotus pool. Behind the table is a wooden platform, which is just above the lotus pool. It's beautiful to stand here and enjoy the flowers as if you were in a flower cluster.

Unfortunately, Zhuo Qing is not in the mood to enjoy the flowers. She says to the confident green maple: "I really can't draw!"

With a confident smile, Qingfeng said, "it doesn't matter. I'll make some fun later. Just use a pen to draw a few circles under the paper."

"Draw a circle?" Zhuo Qing was stunned and quickly asked, "how big is the painting? How many? Circle or ellipse? Where is the specific location? " If it's just a circle, she can still do it, but please be more specific! She should be working on a geometry problem!

Qingfeng casually replied: "whatever you like."

"Ah?" Zhuo Qing is confused. How can I draw this?

She was still melancholy. The ink on the table had been ground and the paper had been laid. The eunuch stepped aside and said respectfully, "the painting tools are ready, please."

Zhuo Qing stands beside Qingfeng. She skillfully pours a small half of the ink into the nearby white porcelain dish. After a while, Qingfeng says, "let's go."

A large piece of rice paper stands in front of us. Zhuo Qing really has a feeling of crying and laughing. Where do you start?! I knew there would be such an adventure. She used to consider studying calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting with her mother. Now she doesn't know where to start!

Forget it, Qingfeng doesn't worry about anything. She takes a deep breath. Zhuo Qing draws a circle a little bigger than her fist on the bottom of the white paper. Qingfeng's inking is a little light, leaving a shallow impression on the white paper. Zhuo Qing takes a look at Qingfeng, and her expression is still as usual. She is preparing red cinnabar, which is supposed to be used for drawing lotus.

Since she doesn't have any opinions, Zhuo Qing doesn't care. She bravely spends about ten circles on the paper, big and small. When she draws to the back, Zhuo Qing doesn't know how to write. The white paper is in a mess by her ·····

at this time, Qingfeng seems to be ready to pick up a thinner brush and quickly sketch a few lines on those messy circles Pen, a flexible lotus leaf actually appeared. Her action is very fast, a few random strokes, the original chaotic composition immediately becomes a vivid lotus pond, it is too powerful!

Just when Zhuo Qing exclaimed, a clear and delicate piano sound sounded like a jade bead falling plate. Zhuo Qing raised her head. Not far ahead, Lou Xiwu was sitting in front of the Guqin. Her slender fingers crossed the string smoothly, and her light melody echoed in the royal garden. The girl's piano skill was really good!

"All right."

Zhuo Qing is still appreciating the music of Lou Xi dance, and the cold voice of Qing Feng is low.

All right? So fast? It's about as long as she's been drawing circles!

Once again, Zhuo Qing is completely stunned by the painting in front of her. -

in front of her, there is a clean and elegant ink painting, which expresses the lotus leaf and lake water vividly and vividly with the black of different shades. Cinnabar and white background, painted into the first bloom of the new lotus, and ink glow, appears fresh and pink. The most amazing thing is that the lotus leaves and lotus petals seem to condense a lot of small drops of water. The whole painting seems to be permeated with a light vapor, misty covering the ink leaf pink lotus, just like the new lotus blooming in the eyes after the rain!

In the upper left corner of the painting, there are also a few small words: "who is envious of the world when it's covered in the morning dew". The font is graceful and the strokes are fluent.

How could that be! In such a short time, Zhuo Qing can't believe that this is the rice paper she just tortured!

She knows what a real talented woman is.

Qingfeng slowly put down the pen, pull Zhuo Qing back step, let a few eunuchs hanging head standing on one side carry the wooden table, to the front of the Empress Dowager.

Just finished painting, the paper is too soft to take up, Lou Suxin and Yang Zhilan are very proud to get up and go to the long table, a look, both of them are in front of a bright, Lou Suxin is a rare boast: "really worthy of the name!"Such works, even those who specialize in painting, may not be able to draw without thirty or fifty years' skill!

Yang Zhilan nodded and said with a smile, "come here and tell us the meaning of your poem."

"Yes." Qingfeng walks slowly. Zhuo Qing is standing on the wooden platform breathing fresh air. If she can, she really wants to leave early.

Looking at the green maple came over, Yang Zhilan did not look for traces of sweep a side has been standing behind her maid, maid slowly back out.

In front of the painting, Qingfeng raised her head slightly and said with a proud smile: "in fact, the meaning is very simple. Lotus is pure and elegant. It's not contaminated by worldly filth. Because of this quality, it's also envied by the world."

"Well said." Lou Suxin nodded in praise. She just likes the arrogant woman!

There's a lot of praise. Zhuo Qing just stretches her waist lazily. It's not easy for an ancient woman. She can't do without music, chess, calligraphy and painting!

Standing on the edge of the wooden platform, Zhuo Qing sighed and touched the lotus leaf beside her. All of a sudden, Zhuo Qing feels a flash at her feet and hears the broken wood in her ear. Before she can react, the wooden platform collapses. One is unstable, and Zhuo Qing falls into the lotus pool ··

in the end
