There’s a Dragon Girl in the Desolate Sea

Chapter One of the fifty-second piece: (eight)

The queen was bitter, but she had to eat it. She had to make an expression on the face of the Emperor thinking that it was really a honour for the Emperor to think about it. She picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat in her mouth. She usually tastes the delicacies of the mountains and seas, but the taste is a little wrong. It is the chopsticks that do not move. The royal cook in the palace is exquisite. Even if it is cold, the meat is much more delicious than ordinary meals. It is a pity that the queen has nourished the intestines. Unable to bear it, she gave a light bite, and the fleshy skin on the outside had become stiff, and she felt so embarrassing that so many people around still looked at her enviously.

what to do? Must eat!

You have to eat if you don’t!

After eating a piece of meat gracefully, the queen raised her head and looked at the prince. The prince could have said that he was the emperor’s pro-democracy, and only rewarded her. No one else had this honor. In other words, the queen could not treat these few dishes. Distribute the dishes to other concubines.

Eating one piece is the queen’s life. If you finish eating all these dishes...not to mention whether it is difficult to swallow or not, it is not good for your body!

Prince Shi Shiran took the seat, and the eyes of the young women in the temple couldn't help but focus on him. For fear of being seen by His Royal Highness, they felt that they were too frivolous. They all looked up and took a peek, and then immediately lowered and dared not look again. In the hall, when the prince raised his eyes, only one person dared to look at him.

It was this stare that made his heartbeat miss a beat.

He believed that the etiquette was thoughtful, and the queen could not find any mistakes in his speech and gestures. The concubines and female relatives in the palace really envied the queen as the holy favorite. Only the lady Mu Shao smiled brightly. The expression is unabashedly gloating.

The prince clenched a fist with his hand, coughed slightly against his thin lips, and said to the queen: "The lady is still busy here, so I went back to the front hall."

The queen has no feelings for the eldest son of the Yuan empress, but it is not to the point of thorns in her eyes. If it weren't for the emperor to tell her to keep the prince, the queen would not want to care about it! Whether the prince is married or not, is there a woman? What does it matter to her? Anyway, he doesn't necessarily have much respect for her as a queen in his heart. It's good if everyone doesn't offend the river. What do you want to do so much?

But can it be done if the emperor does not listen to it?

To put it bluntly, the prince was finally left, and the queen laughed and said: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. The palace is getting older and hasn't seen so many young girls for a long time. If someone takes the initiative to perform, the palace will reward her with a peony. "

The peony blooming period is over, but there are a few pots in the Queen's Palace, which she is willing to use as a prize, which is really a loss.

The prince did not have any resentment towards the queen now, but even though he was still young when the mother queen was still young, he clearly remembered how proud and arrogant the new queen was and destroyed all her mother's relics. Especially the palace where the previous queens lived has been renovated inside and out, erasing all traces of the empress.

At that time, the new queen was winning the holy favorite, so she naturally didn't put him in the eyes of the prince. Later, when she was old and faded, and she kept entering new people in the palace, she stopped and became more honest. The prince did not have much resentment towards the queen, but occasionally a small revenge for her revenge for destroying her mother's relics. After all, most of the mother's things were taken away by the prince before being destroyed by the queen. Because of this, the relationship between the emperor and the empress faded, and they began to miss their wives, so they became angry that the empress didn’t know the importance, leaving nothing behind the empress’ relics, and increasingly alienated her.

In fact, even if it wasn't a queen, it would be another woman.

Perhaps because of this, the emperor became more and more indifferent to herself, and the queen desperately wanted to prove her identity. For example, whenever she wears court clothes that symbolize status and the queen's unique phoenix crown, she only likes peonies even for flowers.

With the queen's color head, smart people don't know her intentions? His Royal Highness is here, isn't it for him to see him?

You have to perform well!

For a time, the crowds were vying for beauty, and the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, song, dance and poems were dazzling. These noble girls were of noble origin, and they were carefully taught by famous teachers at home. The ladies again showed themselves in front of the prince, and they naturally showed their talents. Sometimes they looked very cute even if they were careful. Of course, if you are married like Linglong, just look at the excitement.

But I can't hold back someone to draw the fire at her!

The ladies showed off their talents one after another, Linglong watched them with gusto, and looked very happy. Out of the corner of his eyes, the prince saw her clapping her hands with a smile, and she thought that she was actually looking at the princess.

Most of the women here admire the prince, but the princesses do not. The nine sons of Longsheng are still different, and the emperor’s daughters have different personalities. They are the prince’s relatives and they only respect the prince. Unfortunately, some of them have a crush on Mu Shaoqing. When Mu Shaoqing was named the champion by the emperor, the emperor loved him and wanted to marry him to his daughter, but Mu Shaoqing refused without humility and vigor. Although the emperor didn't mention which daughter to marry at that time, the princesses who admired Mu Shaoqing confidently considered themselves.

Since then, Linglong, who later married Mu Shaoqing and occupied the position of Mrs. Mu Shaoqing, was the thorn in their eyes.

Especially this Madam Mu, who also broke her leg, I heard that she couldn't even give birth to a child. How could such a mutilated body be ashamed to occupy a god-like figure like Mu Honghe? If you were smarter and had more face, you would have asked yourself to go down long ago!

Linglong was cueed inexplicably, and pointed her index finger to her nose: "The princess wants me to come out to perform?"

The charming princess in a pink dress with butterflies and flowers nodded: "Madam Mu is the wife of Mu Hongyou. Mu Hongyou is a well-known talent in the world. Even the father of this palace praises him. Plus, this palace feels that the person who can make Mu Hongshe look like a treasure must have her uniqueness."

Saying that, the expression looks very friendly, and the tone is not so polite. Those who have guns and sticks have almost written the words that the palace is looking for trouble.

Ordinary people were asked like this by Jin Zhi Yuye, how could they not panic, some kind-hearted girls couldn't help but give Linglong a worried look. There are many of them who admire Mu Honghe, but everyone is from a high school. How can they be concubines or continuations? Besides, Mu Hongshe loves his wife, and if she is not wanted because his wife has a broken leg, then it is not Mu Hongshe who is sought after and praised by people.

The princess embarrassed Mrs. Mu in such a way, wouldn't she be afraid of Mu Hongshe's anger?

In that case, Mu Hongshe wouldn't even look at the princess, right?

Linglong was originally admiring the little beauty's Sleeve Dance. She stared at the new chestnut cake. She wanted to grab a piece of cake. The princess's goal came. She smiled and said unceremoniously: "Wait for the princess to hire the princess. , You will naturally know how I excel."

The prince heard the words and glanced at her, but did not react. It was mainly because no one knew that there would be a married woman driving on such a formal occasion... Even the beautiful and charming concubines present were not in the first place. Suddenly realized what Linglong meant. Before they thought about the taste, the queen squirted out a sip of hot tea just after eating cold meat!

Under the public, the mother of a country has done such an indecent thing, it is simply a big ugly! The prince was immediately happy, and gave Linglong an admiration.

The princess naturally didn't understand the meaning of Linglong, she was still messing around, and she had to show her talent to open her eyes. Linglong's patience gradually diminished, and she narrowed her eyes: "Oh, what do you want to see me perform? Broken boulders in her chest? Or bounce on one leg? The princess knew I was a useless person, but she still embarrassed me at the great dinner. Is my broken leg obstructing the princess’s eyes? Or, who is the princess caring for?"

This is disrespectful to say, no matter how arrogant the princess is, she is still a girl who has not been out of the pavilion.

Linglong said insincerely, "Should the princess not care about me, a waste person?"

This is not a care, nor is it not care, the princess angrily said: "You have a broken leg, not a broken hand! Can't you play the piano, play chess, write and draw? The pot will always play!"

This time Linglong readily agreed: "Yes."

Compared with ordinary ladies, the princesses have more freedom in life, and they can even learn six arts with the princes. Six arts refer to rituals, music, shooting, imperialism, books, and numbers. However, as women, the emperor did not have high demands on them, and would not restrain them. Several princesses played with the emperor's brothers and emperors. Among them, pitching is a game that they all like.

Throwing the pot comes from the shooting ceremony. Taking a pot and throwing arrows into it. The one who throws more wins, and the loser will be punished in accordance with the regulations. The princesses are delicate and weak, and the arrows are sharp, so they use special bamboo pipes instead. arrow.

The princesses are often boring and often play. It can't be said that there are hundreds of hits, but compared with people who have never played, they are definitely masters. Especially when Linglong had broken her leg, it was impossible for her to be accurate.

The queen thought it was not proper, and was trying to stop it, but the prince was very interested. He didn't want to see Linglong making a fool of himself, but he just felt that she had written all the thoughts of fun on her face, and it really didn't look like a person who couldn't play.

I heard from Doctor Hu that when I go to treat her legs on weekdays, I can always see a lot of things that I haven't seen before. This Mrs. Mu Shao is a person who likes to play very much and is good at playing.

When the prince spoke, the palace people quickly moved all the props used by the princesses to play the pot-throwing game in Su Ri Li. According to the princess's instructions, the pot with a big belly and a small mouth were placed about ten feet away. The actors played music, and the prince came down to witness himself , But made the princesses very nervous.

The prince's brother is not easy to get close to, and they don't dare to bother them.

However, Linglong had the intention to joking with the prince: "His Royal Highness must be fair and open, not for favoritism."

The prince nodded: "This is natural."
