In the end, under the gaze of everyone, Qin Yixuan still went on stage.
Qin Yixiuan is usually best at playing the piano, so on an occasion like today, she naturally chose to perform her piano skills.
However, even though Qin Yixuan kept telling herself that she must not perform too badly and embarrass herself, no matter how hard she tried to calm down, she couldn't help but think of the songs played by Su Liyue. Influenced by those songs, Qin Yixuan even made a few mistakes in playing them.
At this time, Qin Yixuan didn't know that Su Liyue's first appearance was actually a mental crushing blow to her and everyone present.
Qin Yixuan looked pale and deeply shocked when she stepped down from the stage.
Moreover, she also managed to see the mocking expressions of the people in the audience as they looked at her.
At this moment, Qin Yixuan wished she could find a hole to crawl into, and she hated Su Liyue even more.
However, Qin Yixuan is not the only one.
After Qin Yixuan came on stage, it was Lu Miao's turn.
Lu Miao was also chosen by the emperor to perform on stage.
With Qin Yixuan's mistake, Lu Miao chose dance.
Just because she was chosen by the emperor, Lu Miao was too nervous and ended up stepping on the hem of her skirt and falling.
With these two people leading the way, the other girls did not muster up the courage to go on stage. Instead, they became even more nervous. They hung their heads and did not dare to go on stage at all.
In the end, Wu Yunran stood up.
Wu Yunran looked at Su Liyue and gave her a friendly smile. "I know my talent is not as good as Princess Zhan's. Now I am going to perform on stage. If there are any shortcomings, I hope Princess Zhan will give me some guidance."
After saying that, Wu Yunran bowed to Su Liyue and walked towards the stage.
Although Wu Yunran was born in a family of military generals, she possessed all the gentleness that a woman should have.
Wu Yunran's calmness and composure made many young masters show admiration, and also made Queen Xie put aside her previous dissatisfaction. She felt more and more that Wu Yunran should marry his son.
As for Ye Changyou, his eyes also fell on Wu Yunran at this time.
Ye Changyou knew about his mother's plan for today, and he was quite satisfied with Wu Yunran in front of him, but there was no eagerness in his eyes.
After Wu Yunran came on stage, he chose the pipa.
The pipa is full of the gentleness of a Jiangnan woman. Wu Yunran, dressed in a yellow shirt, looks even more gentle as she holds the pipa.
With his fingers gently plucking and picking, the graceful pipa music flowed out. The song was remarkable and would have been brilliant under normal circumstances, especially since Wu Yunran and the pipa were almost one.
However, with Su Liyue's magical songs and amazing operations, Wu Yunran has long been eclipsed.
Although Wu Yunran was unhappy, he calmly and generously bowed to everyone and returned to his seat.
Next, more women came on stage. Occasionally, some performed well, but none of them were outstanding, so that when everyone watched the subsequent performances, they all felt a little uninterested.
…
"Is the Queen interested in any of them?" When all the ladies had finished their performances, Ye Kunlin looked at the Queen.
Empress Xie was overjoyed when she heard this, "Your Majesty..."
"I'd better listen to the opinions of the princes." Before Empress Xie finished speaking, Ye Kunlin suddenly changed his tone, "After all, they are the ones who have to choose the concubine."
When the Queen heard this, although her expression was not very good, she still said, "Your Majesty is right."
God knows, Queen Xie was almost going crazy at this moment.
Ye Kunlin first looked at Prince Ji, Ye Ruihua. "Prince Ji and Princess Ji have been married for many years but have no children. Would you like to choose a concubine to accompany you today?"
Upon hearing this, Su Liyue also looked at Ye Ruihua, and then her gaze fell on Qi Siya.
Qi Siya was seen sitting there with a dignified look on her face, with a faint smile on her face, as if she didn't care at all whether Prince Ji married a concubine or not.
Looking at Qi Siya like this, Su Liyue couldn't help but frown.
She felt more and more that something was wrong.
Logically speaking, since she found out that Qi Siya was infertile, Qi Siya should have taken some action.
Moreover, when I saw Qi Siya before, she seemed to value her child very much. Now that the emperor has pointed out her problem of being childless, she shouldn't be so calm.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong, but Su Liyue was a little confused about where the evil was.
Just as Su Liyue was watching Qi Siya in deep thought, Qi Siya also felt Su Liyue's gaze. She clasped her hands in her sleeves, but her face remained expressionless.
At this time, Prince Ji stood up and said calmly, "Your Majesty, I am still young and have no other requests. I just want to spend two years of peace and quiet with Ya'er. I hope Your Majesty will grant me this."
If this were said by someone else, it would definitely cause an uproar, but when it came from Prince Ji, everyone thought it was too normal.
After all, Prince Ji has been a kind, gentle and selfless person in recent years. He and Princess Ji Qi Siya are extremely loving and they go out together and treat each other as equals. I wonder how many ladies in the capital envy him.
After all, who doesn’t want a man who pampers and is loyal to them?
After hearing what Prince Ji said, Ye Kunlin just glanced at Prince Ji and didn't say whether he agreed or not. He just waved his hand and asked Prince Ji to sit down.
After King Ji, the next one was Ye Changyou.
Ye Changyou stood up and said to Ye Kunlin, "I want to marry Miss Yunran from the Wu family and my cousin Xie Meng from the Xie family."
Having concubines on both sides at once is not an excessive thing.
Moreover, Ye Changyou was worried that if he didn't speak up, someone else would choose him, so he wanted to make a decision early.
After all, both the Wu family and the Xie family have been of great help to him.
Ye Kunlin still said nothing and just looked at the fourth prince Huai.
Prince Huai Ye Xuqi smiled bitterly, "My son is ill and I don't want to harm the girl."
When Ye Kunlin saw Ye Xuqi like this, a trace of sadness flashed across his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Finally, Ye Kunlin's gaze fell on Ye Cangming.
Ye Cangming did not stand up or speak, but just met Ye Kunlin's gaze coldly, with no emotion in his eyes.
Ye Kunlin: "..."
He was very angry, but in the end he could do nothing about Ye Cangming.
The ladies below were all dejected, thinking that they had no chance today.
However, he never expected that at this time Ye Kunlin asked his father-in-law to bring the four treasures of the study and the blank imperial edict.
Is this an arranged marriage?
Everyone was surprised and looked at Ye Changyou.
After all, only Ye Changyou has chosen a concubine today. Isn’t the emperor’s decree to grant Ye Changyou a marriage?
It would have been enough to just appoint someone personally, but he had to be granted a marriage. Could it be that Ye Changyou is really the candidate for the crown prince?
Even Wu Yunran's expression when he looked at Ye Changyou was a little complicated.
If...if he really was the crown prince, it wouldn't be a bad idea for her to marry him, but...
Wu Yunran suddenly thought of something and subconsciously looked in the direction of Prince Ji...
