Chapter 85 Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet 6

In the hall, the preparations were crisscrossed, and everyone pushed the cup and changed the room. They gradually entered a good situation and slowly became lively.

Yu Zi dyed back to the table, and his face became better. As soon as he sat down, he saw Meng Xianya come to the center and said to Changsun Zhifu, "Your Majesty, it was a man's test just now. Next, why don't you let the daughter present show her hand? My concubine prepared Ye Mingzhu as a lottery head to entertain the guests."

Changsun stopped and nodded. Seeing this, Meng Xianya turned around and said to everyone, "Just now, it was a man's archery race. Next, ladies present here will show their talents. This time, the lottery is a night pearl."

All the ladies began to look at each other in consternation. I don't know whether they should go to perform or not. There are so many princes and grandsons present, as well as princes and princes. If they can be amazing, they may become famous at one fell swoop. Isn't it good to be liked?

Obviously, that's what all the ladies think. Meng Xianya looked at the people below and smiled and said, "It must be that the ladies are all daughters' families, and they are more thin-skinned. Then it's better for me to give the topic. How about the ladies perform?"

After saying this, the people below immediately began to whisper to each other. Meng Xianya didn't care what others said, so she said, "The ancients have clouds, and the one who can calm down is the piano. Why don't you take the piano as an auxiliary today, and how about all the daughter come to show your piano skills?

Since all this has been said, all the children have a foundation. They are not very awkward. After a while, a few children walked to the piano in the center and presented the music.

Liu Shihan whispered, "Ninger, look at this posture. This Xian side concubine seems to be specially paving for whom."

Xia Mengning smiled indifferently and looked at Meng Xianya, who was sitting on the top. She tilted her head and said to Liu Shihan, "If we don't touch these right and wrongs, naturally we can't be right and wrong. What is she willing to do? What does it have to do with us?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, lowered their heads and whispered. When Yu Ziran was silently excited in his heart, he naturally turned his head and looked at Xia Mengning. Seeing that the other party was laughing with a relaxed face, he couldn't help but be contemptuous.

After a few songs were shot, everyone's faces were faint and did not seem to be affected. Meng Xianya looked at it and knew that this bedding was enough, so she smiled and said, "I heard that the princess's piano skills are extraordinary. I don't know if I can have the honor to listen to the princess play a song today?"

In this way, everyone also turned their eyes to Yu Ziran. There was a humane in the crowd: "Last year, the princess played an autumn song called Zhenjingjing when she met the kings of the two countries in this dynasty, and even the emperor was very happy."

Hearing this, the eyes of the whole audience became looking forward to it. Yu Ziran finally went from obscurity to the focus of everyone's attention, and his face was also flushed, making the whole person look more and more glamorous.

It's not convenient to refuse more on this occasion. What's more, Yu Ziran has long wanted to show his talent over Xia Mengning. After a short pause, he got up and came to the center and said, "In this way, Ziran will be ugly."

A girl moved the lyre and moved the embroidered stool. Yu Ziran took a look at Changsun Yun sitting on the mat and smiled gently. After sitting down, she carefully tried the audition, and then frivolous strings. A beautiful autumn wind word spread like running water.

Everyone was intoxicated, and even Liu Shihan couldn't help but say, "It's really worthy of being the most talented woman in the capital. Her piano skills are really extraordinary."

Xia Mengning bent her lips, the most talented woman in the capital? It's just empty. I spent my childhood in my aunt's arms. My aunt's lyre is a thousand times better than that of Ziran.

At the end of the song, everyone couldn't help boasting and praising. Meng Xianya smiled and said, "It really lives up to its reputation. It's really lucky to hear such a wonderful song today."

Everyone saw Yu Ziran sitting there with a shallow smile on his face. His whole body was a beautiful scenery. Many Wang Sun's eyes couldn't help girling in her direction. Yu Ziran's inner vanity was greatly satisfied. He subconsciously looked at Changsun Yun's position and saw that the other party was turning his hand. The wine glass in the middle is not on me at all.

He walked back to the banquet with a smile on his face, and Yu Ziran's palm had been tightly pinched under his sleeve.

"From this point of view, there is no doubt that Princess Ziran won this time." Meng Xianya said with a smile, and everyone nodded at the bottom, and could not deny Meng Xianya's decision.

Yu Ziran looked at everyone's eyes, and then looked at Changsun Yun's still absent-minded look. He bit his lips and said, "It's just a little skill of dyeing carving insects. I heard that the third lady of Xiangfu's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all powerful. I don't know if I can hear Miss San playing a song today?"

Easily led the topic to Xia Mengning. Meng Xianya secretly said that it was not good. The princess looked very shrewd and was willing to be jealous. It would be good if she won. She had to pull her into the water.

After Yu Ziran said this, he also had some regret in his heart. Xia Mengning should not be underestimated. In case he really won himself, his actions just now would not be in vain.

"The princess smiled. The little girl only knew a little about the piano, not the word "powerful."

Xia Mengning smiled and faced the position of Yu Ziran above and said slowly.

Yu Ziran took a breath in his heart, but smiled on his face and said nothing else.

Zheng Hanxiu, who was sitting at the head, saw it, but said, "Miss San doesn't have to be too modest. How can the prime minister's daughter go? Besides, today is just an entertainment mood. Why don't Miss San try it so that we can feast our ears?"

Since Zheng Hanxiu has said the name of the prime minister's daughter, Xia Mengning is not too modest. At that moment, she stood up and walked to the center to be blessed. "The little girl obeys, let the little girl change her clothes first."

With that, he walked out of the hall with Jiu'er.

Yu Ziran looked at Meng Xianya with a nervous attitude. The latter also panicked, but for a moment, he calmed down and quietly winked at Wen'er behind him. Wen'er nodded and quietly retreated.

Xia Mengning and Jiu'er went out together. Jiu'er was a little worried and said, "Miss, why do you have to agree? In case it's a trap set by them..."

Xia Mengning shook her head. The two walked back to the place where the carriage was parked. Jiuer took the dress she brought with her and went to the guest house with Xia Mengning to change her clothes. Xia Mengning handed her the changed clothes and said, "Don't worry, I have my own idea. You put the clothes back on the carriage first. I can do it alone."

Seeing Xia Mengning's firm words, Jiu'er also relaxed, "That young lady should be careful. The maidservant will go first and come back immediately."

Jiu'er quickly walked to the place where the carriage was parked with the clothes changed by Xia Mengning. As soon as she passed a corner, she was knocked to the ground by a person.

"Ah!" Jiu'er shouted, touched his palm and stood up. The person dressed in black, did not apologize or say anything. Jiu'er looked at him and felt a little familiar, but the other party had a cold posture. Jiuer settled down and simply did not fall, so she didn't care about him.

Thinking about it, Jiu'er squatted down and picked up the clothes on the ground. A big hand was faster than her and grabbed the clothes. As soon as Jiu'er stood up to ask, she was stuffed with the clothes handed over.

"You..."

"You..."

The two spoke at the same time, and then they were a little embarrassed. Jiu'er looked at the man carefully and asked in a low voice, "Are you the secret guard beside the prince? What we have seen, in the prime minister's mansion..."

Leng Xiao's lips squeezed tightly. Seeing that the other party's attitude was so eager, he didn't reply, so he had to say, "Well."

Jiu'er smiled and said, "It's okay. Thank you for helping me pick up my clothes."

Leng Xiao looked at the smile of the woman in front of him and was a little confused. He said unnaturally, "I bumped into you first. Why do you still say thank you?"

Jiu'er listened and reached out to cover her mouth and smiled. After a long time, she let go of her hand and said, "So you can speak so much. I thought you were born to speak a few words..."

With that, he raised his hand carelessly, "We are people we know. You didn't mean it. Why do I care about you?"

Leng Xiao stared at the face of the person in front of her. It was strange why a woman could like to laugh so much, and it was the kind that bent her eyes and her mouth and nose were squeezed together. But what was more strange was that she didn't feel upset, but she felt that such a smile was really beautiful.

When his eyes fell, Leng Xiao saw the object at Jiu'er's feet. His eyes suddenly burst out a strong light and quickly bent down to pick up the thing.

"Where did you get it?" Pinching the purse in his hand, Leng Xiao asked word by word that this purse is his own personal thing. It has been lost for a long time, but why is it here now?

Jiu'er saw it and said timidly, "This is what I picked up on the street. Do you know this?"

Hearing this, Leng Xiao remembered what happened in the past few months. Looking at the people in front of him, he understood everything. Putting the purse in his arms, Leng Xiao nodded: "It was lost by someone I know. A few months ago, I took it to him."

Jiu'er was very puzzled, but she didn't dare to come back from the cold hands of Leng Xiao, so she had to whisper, "Well... Can you tell me who that person is..."

Leng Xiao's inquiring eyes looked at Jiu'er, and the latter immediately waved his hand: "I don't mean anything else. I just want to thank him in person. He is my savior..."

Hearing the words with a sneer, her eyebrows loosened. Jiu'er was relieved and turned around and said, "Okay, forget it if you don't say it, I'll go first... Ah!"

Jiu'er was about to turn around, but she accidentally stepped on the corner of her skirt. Seeing that she was about to fall, Jiu'er closed her eyes and shouted.

A pair of powerful arms firmly held Jiu'er, who was about to slide down. Jiu'er opened her eyes and saw that it was Leng Xiao who saved her. She looked at each other, and both of them were a little embarrassed.

Quickly regained her reason. Jiu'er stood up and held her clothes and lowered her head to tidy up her clothes. Leng Xiao on the opposite side saw that she looked a little busy and couldn't help it any longer. A faint smile gently overflowed from the corners of her eyes. She didn't look carefully, but she couldn't notice it.

"Your name is Jiu'er..." Leng Xiao said, "I heard your lady call your name."

Jiu'er gave a low 'en' and raised his head and said, "I have something else to do. Let's go first."

With that, he walked forward with the clothes in his arms. Leng Xiao stood still, looked at the back of the hurried escape, and said softly, "This is the second time to save you."
