The others just thought that Helian Jue was whispering to Qin Yanning and didn't take their little actions seriously.

Zhao Yaoyao sat in front of the piano table, gently swaying her white hands, and a song of "Drunken Fisherman Singing at Dusk" sounded in the hall.

Even Qin Yanning, who didn't know much about musical instruments, thought that his cousin Yaoyao's piano skills were really good.

After the song was finished, everyone cheered. Zhao Yaoyao smiled, bowed to the host, and thanked everyone who had praised her before returning to her seat.

The Queen Mother was pleased to see that Zhao Yaoyao was neither humble nor arrogant, so she specially rewarded her with a gold hairpin and a tourmaline bracelet.

Helian Huan suddenly stood up and said, "Yaoyao's skills are just trifles. I wonder if our future queen could teach me a thing or two?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the originally bustling Cining Palace suddenly became quiet.

Everyone knows that Qin Yanning is a peasant girl, a woman who grew up on a farm. What can she teach Zhao Yaoyao, who has been studying with famous teachers since childhood?

I'm afraid she can't even count the number of strings on the guqin.

However, with Helian Huan stepping forward, many people who were dissatisfied with Qin Yanning's impending coronation were happy to watch the fun.

The Queen Mother slammed the table in displeasure and said angrily, "Huan'er, what are you doing?"

When the empress dowager first entered the palace, Helian Huan helped her, so Helian Jue treated this aunt with favor after he ascended the throne.

But Helian Huan could not rely on the friendship of the past to disrespect the royal family.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yaoyao quickly stood up to smooth things over. She pulled Helian Huan and signaled her to stop talking.

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, my mother is just drunk and talking nonsense."

Helian Huan was unwilling to use this opportunity to get out.

"This princess is not drunk."

Hearing Helian Huan say this, Zhao Yaoyao suddenly felt a headache. Could it be that her mother was drunk?

Helian Jue put down the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: "Your Highness is quite modest. If I remember correctly, Yaoyao started learning the zither at the age of three, right?"

Helian Huan became much more sober instantly when she saw Helian Jue's cold eyes, and she also felt a little regretful at this moment.

Even if she had some grievances against the peasant girl, she shouldn't have provoked her at the palace banquet after just a few drinks.

I have seriously offended His Majesty.

Based on her understanding of His Majesty, although he would not embarrass her openly, he would definitely seek revenge in private.

Helian Huan adjusted his expression, "Your Majesty, I did drink just now..."

"Since the princess wants to see Ning'er play the piano, then Ning'er will perform. However, I can't say I can teach you. Ning'er has only been learning the piano for a short time, so naturally I can't compare to my cousin Yaoyao's proficiency."

Qin Yanning knew that Helian Huan was deliberately looking for trouble with her, but unfortunately she hit a wall this time.

At A-Lian's reminder, she bought all the props that could be bought in the childbearing space.

Now she only has two useless ones left, "Little Unlucky" and "Little Qin Niang".

Originally, "Little Qin Niang" was kept by Qin Yanning to win favor in the harem, but she met a son of the love-brained world in this world. This thing was not put to use until tonight.

"Xiao Qin Niang" is also a pill, and Qin Yanning had just eaten it during the chaos.

System products are bound to be top-notch. With the help of props, Qin Yanning had no reason not to hit the face offered to him.

Qin Yanning patted Helian Jue's hand, signaling him not to worry, and slowly walked to the piano table.

Zhao Yaoyao had just used the guqin from the palace, so Qin Yanning did not ask anyone to change the guqin.

Helian Jue had blind trust in Qin Yanning.

He had already made up his mind that even if Qin Yanning played randomly, he would be the first to applaud.

So as to avoid making his Ning'er sad.

It has to be said that the Queen Mother and Helian Jue had a certain degree of spiritual connection.

The Queen Mother had already made up her mind that no matter how Qin Yanning played the music, she would say that it was a lost music score she had recently found.

The Qin family was extremely nervous at this time. It would be fine if others didn't know, but they knew it very well.

Their daughter and sister had never touched a zither before entering the palace.

Qin Yanning sat down in front of the piano table and smiled at Helian Jue. Yu'er thought her mother was teasing her and let out a cry of joy.

"In that case, Princess, please take a seat first." Helian Jue glanced at Helian Huan, who let out a long sigh and sat back.

She felt that her back was soaked with cold sweat.

When Qin Yanning put her hand on the guqin, a magical feeling passed through her body, as if she was born to play it, and she began to play it skillfully.

Qin Yanning played a piece of music called "Yangchun". The sound of the piano was so quiet and lofty that everyone was stunned for a moment.

Even Zhao Yaoyao's eyes widened. Her sister-in-law's piano skills were on par with hers.

As he listened, a look of mutual admiration appeared in Zhao Yaoyao's eyes.

Helian Huan was irritated by what she heard. Wasn't it said that Lady Ning was a peasant girl? She felt her face hurt now.

After Qin Yanning finished playing a song, Qin Erge was the first to applaud, snatching the position of being the first to applaud from Helian Jue.

Helian Jue was not angry either. He smiled and watched Qin Yanning return to his seat.

Everyone in the hall cheered, and for a moment the atmosphere of happiness between host and guest returned.

Only Helian Huan was in great pain. She wanted to slap herself in the face and call her a bad mouth.

The palace banquet ended at midnight. The two children were taken back to the palace to sleep. Qin Yanning also said goodbye to his family and watched them get on the carriage to leave the palace.

Helian Jue was not sleepy at all and said he wanted to take Qin Yanning to Zhaixing Pavilion to watch the stars.

Qin Yanning thought Helian Jue was drunk, so he had to agree with him.

"When did Ning'er learn to play the piano?"

Qin Yanning smiled playfully, "I learned it secretly. I wanted to give His Majesty a surprise."

Helian Jue also laughed at what Qin Yanning said, startling the birds perched on the Zhaixing Pavilion.

The night wind blew, and Helian Jue gently tied the laces of Qin Yanning's cloak.

The two stood side by side under the moonlight, even their shadows merged together.

The Zhaixing Pavilion is the highest place in the imperial city. Standing here, Qin Yanning can have a panoramic view of everything in the capital.

In the dim night, the lanterns of every household are connected into one, and the lights of thousands of houses are a weaving of the little joys of every household.

Helian Jue held Qin Yanning's hand with one hand and pointed straight ahead with the other hand and said, "Ning'er, look there."
