Back To Zero - Chapter 52
After arriving at the gate of Yakun Palace, Jun Lixuan hugged Ling Qiyang and went directly into the bedroom of the side hall.
Being put on the bed, Ling Qiyang looked at Jun Lixuan’s unhappy face, smiled and said, “I’m fine.”
Jun Lixuan helped him take off his shoes, covered the quilt, and sat on the side of the bed and said, “Never let you go to the palace alone again next time.”
“I met the imperial concubine by accident.” It stands to reason that the imperial concubine is not in good health and should be resting in the palace. Unexpectedly, she ran out today and dressed up like this. I was afraid of this banquet. If she does not attend, the queen will take the limelight, share her favor, and steal her beauty.
“It was indeed my negligence.” Jun Lixuan gently rubbed Ling Qiyang’s knee and asked, “Does it hurt?”
Ling Qiyang shook his head, “In fact, it didn’t last long. Fortunately, the emperor came in time. It’s just that now the belly comes out, and after a long time, I have a feeling of falling.”
Jun Lixuan asked nervously: “Does it hurt? Don’t hide it from me.”
“No.” Ling Qiyang said with a smile: “There is an anti-fetal medicine given to me by Master, what can you worry about?”
“Yes.” However, Jun Lixuan felt distressed when he thought of Ling Qiyang kneeling there to make things difficult, “I will ask them to get you something first, and then go to Hexiang Palace when I’m full.”
Ling Qiyang nodded and asked, “Shan Wenke is here this time to form an alliance?”
“It should be. I don’t know the specifics. When Shan Wenke talked with his father, I was not allowed to enter the study.” Jun Lixuan didn’t feel curious, anyway, whether it was good or bad, he would always know the result. of.
“I’m just thinking about what he intends to use to gain the trust of the alliance.” Ling Qiyang leaned on the soft pillow, a little curious in his heart.
“I don’t know. But Shan Wenke is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp. It was just being suppressed before that he looked like a good person.” Jun Lixuan said.
Ling Qiyang laughed. It was the first time he heard Jun Lixuan comment on a person like this. Although it sounded low, it was true.
“A smart person is not necessarily a bad person. Although Shan Wenke has a lot of thoughts, he seems to be a good person at the moment.” Ling Qiyang said.
Jun Lixuan squeezed his nose, smiled and said solemnly: “Don’t praise other men.”
“It’s not praise, it’s just an objective evaluation.” Ling Qiyang smiled and grabbed Jun Lixuan’s hand pinching his nose.
Jun Lixuan held his hand instead and said, “No way.”
“I see.” Ling Qiyang didn’t refute either. For him, it was a little bit of love between the two.
Half an hour later, the two people went to Hexiang Palace. The banquet had already begun, and the waiter took them to their seats.
Seeing the two seated, Yanxi asked, “Is Qi Yang okay?”
Ling Qiyang stood up and said, “Thank you, my father, for your concern. My son is no problem.”
“That’s good. Sit down and eat more if you like.” Jun Lixuan pressed his hand down and told him to sit down.
“Yes, thank Father Emperor.” Ling Qiyang sat down, and Jun Lixuan began to serve him vegetables. In fact, the two of them were half full just now at the Yakun Palace, and they just came here just to behave.
Seeing that Emperor Yanxi hadn’t asked her much since he came in, the imperial concubine gave Ling Qiyang an angry look. She pinched the chopsticks with her fingers, but accidentally knocked over the cup. The crisp sound made the dancers in the middle also startled, and the dance steps were a little messy.
Emperor Yanxi looked at the imperial concubine and asked: “Is Concubine Ai unwell?”
Seeing the emperor asked herself, the imperial concubine’s anger disappeared a little, and she smiled and said: “The concubine is not uncomfortable, but this dance makes the concubine a little sleepy.”
Emperor Yanxi frowned. These dances were arranged specifically to welcome King You and Emperor Chize, and they also welcomed them. The imperial concubine now feels bored and sleepy, which makes Emperor Yanxi a little annoyed. If the guest finds it boring, then what is it like now that his concubine comes to refute his own face? !
The fifth prince Jun Chengxi reacted swiftly, and immediately stood up and said: “Father, forgive me. The mother and concubine are pregnant, so sleepy is unavoidable, and he has no other meaning.”
As soon as she said this, the imperial concubine also reacted and quickly got up and said: “It is the concubine who made a mistake, and the emperor forgive me.”
“Fine.” Emperor Yanxi didn’t have an attack, but he waved his hand to let the two sit down, “If you can think of a better show, I can also allow you to join in.”
“The emperor, this dance is actually pretty good, I like it.” You Guojun smiled.
“Indeed.” Shan Wenke also echoed: “This dance not only shows the femininity of the woman, but also does not lose the atmosphere. The music is well matched, and it is very comfortable to listen to.”
Emperor Yanxi eased his expression and said with a smile: “If you two like it, I will ask Jiaofang to donate the score to both of you, and you can arrange it according to custom when you go back.”
“It’s so good. If this piece is played with a guqin, it will be even better.” Shan Wenke laughed. He has some research on piano music, and it is really rare to get a good one.
“Speaking of guqin, my son suddenly thought that there is a luthier with outstanding piano skills in the three emperor brothers’ mansion. Presumably, he can also help the banquet. I wonder if the three emperors are willing to bring people?” Jun Chengxi stood up and said.
Jun Chengyan next to him looked at Jun Liyuan, then at Emperor Yanxi, raising a glass to block the disdainful smile at the corner of his mouth.
Before, Jun Chengxi used Mo Qingge’s matter to lodge a complaint with Emperor Yanxi. At that time, because Jun Lixuan explained from the side, the emperor believed in Jun Liyuan, so he did not pursue it.
“This is a palace banquet, let the piano master of my house come to cheer, I’m afraid it will disturb the driving of the father and the two kings.” Jun Liyuan said, he did not want Mo Qingge to appear on such an occasion.
Jun Lixuan also frowned. It was because of Mo Qing’s outstanding singing and piano skills that Emperor Yanxi in the previous life declared people into the palace. If the emperor hears Mo Qingge’s piano today and reconnects to the palace, wouldn’t it ruin the third brother’s marriage?
“Brother Sanhuang didn’t want to let him come. Are you still blaming your brother for misunderstanding Brother Sanhuang a few days ago and still mad at me?” Jun Chengxi was obviously not ready to stop.
“Naturally not, the fifth brother is too worried.” Jun Liyuan said.
“Then invite him over. It is his blessing to be able to help the father and the two kings.” Jun Chengxi smiled.
Emperor Yanxi looked at the three sons and said, “Go and bring people.”
Jun Liyuan couldn’t, but had to answer.
Ling Qiyang didn’t know Jun Lixuan’s concern, but he also disliked Jun Chengxi’s proposal.
Jun Liche had an abacus in his heart, thinking for a while, if Jun Chengxi made things more difficult, he might have a response. Anyway, Mo Qingge is from the third brother and Xiaoying’s husband, so naturally he can’t ignore it.
Not long after, Mo Qingge was taken into the palace. After bowing to Emperor Yanxi and the empress, Emperor Yanxi said: “I heard you played the piano well?”
“Back to the emperor, I just barely caught my ears.” Mo Qingge kept his head down, his voice was not high.
“You can stay in Prince Yi’s Mansion, naturally you have your strengths.” Emperor Yanxi said.
“The emperor has been honoured. It’s the prince Yi pitying the caomin who can stay in the palace. Although the caomin is in the palace, the prince seldom listens to me playing the piano, so it is really useless.” Mo Qingge said very well, which made Jun Li Xuan and they were also relieved.
Hearing what he said is indeed the same as what Jun Liyuan and Jun Lixuan said that day, the last half of Yanxi’s suspicion and temptation have also disappeared, and said: “Anyway, since it’s here, let me put on a song to cheer. The repertoire is whatever it is.”
“Yes.” Mo Qingge saluted, stood up, sat down in front of the guqin, flicked a few times with his fingers, and started to play after trying the sound.
There are special skills in the simple minor tone, but it is fascinating. Mo Qingge, who was immersed in the song, couldn’t help raising his head. When she saw his face clearly, the queen was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, staring at Mo Qingge’s face, as if she wanted to look more closely.
At this time, Emperor Yanxi’s eyes clearly fell on the same place as the queen, but the calmness in his eyes was greater than doubt. Jun Lixuan’s heart also followed slightly.
“What’s the matter?” Ling Qiyang asked in a low voice when he noticed that something was wrong with Jun Lixuan.
Jun Lixuan hesitated for a moment, and asked, “If Emperor Father wants to keep Mo Qingge in the palace, can you have a way out?”
Ling Qiyang was taken aback for a moment, surprised at his thought. Then he looked at the reaction of the emperor and the queen calmly, and suddenly felt that Jun Lixuan’s idea was not groundless, but after thinking about it, he felt that things would not be so bad.
“The emperor is a well-measured person, and he will not add people to the palace without a reason. And if there is an emperor, the emperor will take care of the emperor’s face.” Speaking of this, Ling Qiyang smiled, “Besides, there are no imperial concubines there. She even desperately won’t let another third brother in the palace.”
Jun Lixuan laughed and said, “Don’t let her know that she will add to the flames, maybe she can even disturb the third brother and the emperor.”
“From the mind of the imperial concubine, it may not be obvious that the third brother likes Mo Qingge. Even if she thinks of it by chance, she has lost the opportunity to mention it.” Ling Qiyang is not too worried.
“If the father sees something, will it be bad for Mo Qingge?” Jun Lixuan asked again. It doesn’t matter if Mo Qingge is only a luthier, but if he is someone Jun Liyuan likes, then the problem is big.
Ling Qiyang shook his head, “Now the third brother hasn’t shown anything. The emperor, no matter how clever, can’t read his mind. Even if the emperor doubts, it’s just suspicion. Only the emperor will have no male concubines. After Mo Qingge, the court must discuss that the emperor intends to make the third elder brother the crown prince. What the emperor does not like most is that the courtiers speculate on the prince’s candidate, so the emperor will not be so good. As long as the third brother and Mo Qingge have a good grasp Just fine.”
“Listening to Jun’s words is better than reading ten years. It’s you.” Jun Lixuan smiled.
“If you listen to your father, it will be more than ten years old.” Ling Qiyang picked up the vegetables for him, so he was relieved.
After the end of the song, Shan Wenke applauded and said: “Da Ye is really full of talents. It’s really rare that a small luthier can play such a simple piece of music so fascinating.”
Mo Qingge got up and saluted, without saying much.
Emperor Yanxi was also very satisfied. He looked at his face and asked, “Your last name is Mo?”
“Yes.” Mo Qingge replied.
“Is my surname Mo since I was young? Where is my family?” Emperor Yanxi asked.
“If you return to the emperor, Caomin’s hometown is Dianzhou. When he was young, his parents died and became homeless. Later, he was picked up by the owner of Xian Accord and raised him.” Mo Qingge said.
After Emperor Yanxi listened, the doubts in his eyes disappeared. The queen whispered beside him: “It’s probably just that people are similar.”
Emperor Yanxi nodded, and said: “Would you like to go to the palace to teach?”
Upon hearing this, Jun Liyuan couldn’t help holding the cup tightly. Jun Liche calmly patted Jun Liyuan’s leg to calm him down.
Jun Lixuan looked at Emperor Yanxi and then at the emperor, but did not speak. Only Ling Qiyang seemed to be eating snacks with confidence.
“The Caomin doesn’t want to.” Mo Qingge kowtowed: “Although the Caomin is not old, he has experienced too much involuntary. Now he is fortunate to be freed by Lord Yi’s mercy. To the Caomin, Lord Yi is Entong is remade. The emperor asked Caomin in this way, and Caomin was grateful to the emperor for his love. But people should know En to repay, even if the status of a teacher in the palace is several times higher than that of the luthier in Wang Yi’s mansion, Caomin would rather just be a luthier and only repay Yi Lord kindness.”
“The emperor.” At this time, the imperial concubine said softly: “As seen by the concubine, the teachers and luthiers in the palace are far more skilled than the luthiers in the Palace of Yichen. And the palace workshop is already full, it is true. There is no need to ask for another person.” It’s not that she can’t see the surprise of the queen, so she can’t get people in.
Emperor Yanxi looked at the imperial concubine, and saw that his three sons looked the same as usual. They did not seem to have a foreign culture, nor did they care too much about this Mo Qingge, so he nodded and said: “What the imperial concubine said is that it is good to know the gratitude. , I don’t force it. Go down.”
“Yes, Caomin retire.” Mo Qingge retired after saluting.
The few people in the banquet also relieved, and began to continue drinking…
