Chapter 117 I have a cousin
Behind Master Xiyun, eight handsome young men dressed in moon-white gauze, stretched out their long sleeves and danced gracefully, their movements were light and graceful. They sang and
danced, and it was really beautiful at first glance.
[Oh my god! This is a star from ancient times! It's so simple and handsome!] Xia Miaoyuan watched with great interest.
When the song ended, the girls in the audience clapped and cheered.
"Master Xiyun! Master Xiyun!" The girls shouted loudly, and took out rings, silver, and even necklaces and threw them onto the stage.
Some girls took out handkerchiefs, tied them into a knot, and threw them at Master Xiyun. Some also took flowers and threw them at him.
The guests on the second and third floors took out silver or banknotes and put them on the waiter's tray, who then passed them to Master Xiyun.
"Send...send, silver!"
Xia Miaoyuan also excitedly ran to the prince and squeezed out a few words, saying that she wanted to reward Master Xiyun.
[Quick, quick, quick! Brother Prince, take out some silver! ]
Two chubby hands stretched out in front of the prince.
"Okay, okay, this is your reward!" The prince said, taking out a gold ingot from his arms.
Xia Miaoyuan's mouth was almost grinning: [Hahaha, this princess also wants to reward! ]
She walked on her short legs and put the gold ingot on the waiter's tray.
After the cheers, Master Xiyun sang another light song.
This went on for eight or nine times before Young Master Xiyun ended his performance. He was escorted off the stage by his guards and walked gracefully into the back hall.
But the girls in the audience were still reluctant to leave, and they stretched their necks to look at his back.
"Go away, go away. There will be another show tomorrow. Guests who like it can come again!" the eloquent man shouted on the stage. When
the girls saw Young Master Xiyun's back completely disappear, they reluctantly stood up and left.
"Young Master Xiyun's performance was really wonderful!" The prince also looked unsatisfied.
"Shall we invite him to the next palace banquet to liven up the atmosphere?" The prince looked at the second prince.
The second prince scratched his head: "Hehe, he sings well, but forget about inviting him to the palace."
"Why not? It's not a performance that is immoral." The prince asked puzzled.
But the second prince hesitated.
At this time, someone pushed open the door of the private room and walked in.
"How are the two young masters!"
The prince and the second prince looked at the door and saw Dongfang Lingyun walking in wearing a green cloak.
"Young Master Dongfang, you are here too!" The prince greeted him.
"Hahaha, brother, who do you think he is?" The second prince smiled mischievously and untied Dongfang Lingyun's cloak.
"Oh, it was you who was downstairs just now!" The prince exclaimed,
and saw Dongfang Lingyun take off his cloak, revealing a white gauze robe underneath, which was exactly the outfit of the Xiyun Master downstairs just now.
[Wow! It turns out that it is really Dongfang Lingyun! ] Xia Miaoyuan clapped his chubby hands in surprise.
[This time Dongfang has become the top star of Daxia! ]
[On weekdays, he writes official documents in the Inspectorate, and on weekends, he covers his face and sings on the stage, leading the star-chasing trend in Beijing. ]
[Tsk tsk tsk, it's exciting just to think about it. ]
Xia Miaoyuan stretched his short legs, chewed the peach blossom cake in his hand, and imagined the scene of Dongfang Lingyun's identity switching back and forth in his mind.
"What do you think, big brother? I came up with this idea." The second prince raised his head proudly, but
the crown prince sighed and said, "You are just kidding!"
"If the Rongguo Palace and the court knew about this, there would be a lot of commotion. Then... how will it end?" The crown prince glanced at the two of them and frowned.
The second prince patted the crown prince on the shoulder and said, "As long as you are careful enough and don't reveal your identity, it will be fine. Brother, you are worrying too much."
The crown prince and the second prince quarreled for a few more words, and the four of them had lunch at the Tianxiang Restaurant before going back.
Late at night, in Qiuyue Pavilion, Jiang Qiqiu sat on the bed in a daze, motionless.
Concubine Xian stood beside her and whispered, " Princess Anguo is a demon from Great Xia."
Jiang Qiqiu murmured, "Princess Anguo, a demon from Great Xia."
Concubine Xian patted Jiang Qiqiu on the shoulder and said softly, "Yes, sister is right."
Then, Concubine Xian taught Jiang Qiqiu one sentence at a time.
Jiang Qiqiu seemed to have her soul sucked out. She was in a daze and her eyes did not move. She followed Concubine Xian's words expressionlessly. Concubine Xian
taught until her mouth was dry, then she put on her cloak and waved to Eunuch Yang, indicating that she should go out.
"My queen, it seems that the effect of this medicine is really powerful!" Eunuch Yang said with a flattering face.
Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "That's a secret medicine that the lord found for me, so it must be magical."
After she finished speaking, she showed a sinister smile on her face, and Eunuch Yang shuddered when he saw it.
At the time of the winter solstice, the queen received an invitation from her third brother Xiao Licheng.
Last month, Xiao Licheng's wife gave birth to a daughter safely. Now, the child is one month old, and the Xiao family is about to hold a full-month banquet.
[Wow, that's great, now I have a little cousin again, hahahaha.]
[She is younger than me, so she must be very easy to rub. It's exciting just to think about it!]
Xia Miaoyuan heard that she was going to her third uncle's house to attend her cousin's full-month wine, and she was as happy as a puppy, running and playing in the yard.
While running, she was still shouting "Sister! Sister!"
The little deer saw her having fun and jumped along with her.
One person and one deer were jumping around in the courtyard of Kunning Palace, and the scene was very joyful.
On the day of her little cousin's full-month banquet, the queen dressed Xia Miaoyuan up early in the morning. She wore
a brand new peach pink skirt, a gray mink cape, and a double bun on her head with a peach pink pompom on the bun.
This dress made Xia Miaoyuan's round face look even more fair and rosy, like a doll in a New Year painting.
The empress, Emperor Mingxi, the crown prince, and the second prince all went.
Because Xiao Licheng had just been promoted to the position of Dali Temple Minister by Emperor Mingxi not long ago, he suddenly became a famous person in the capital.
On the day of the full-moon banquet, the Xiao family was packed with people.
Those who received invitations rushed to come, and those who did not receive invitations wanted to come just by smelling the invitation.
So on the day of the full-moon banquet, many court officials came.
Xiao Licheng stood at the door to greet the guests. Seeing the guests coming in one after another, and each of them smiling at him as brightly as a flower, he was so surprised that he could not close his mouth.
Thinking back to the time when he followed his sister to Daxia, and then got married and set up a house, it had been more than ten years. The Xiao Mansion has never been so lively before.
[Oh my god, is Third Uncle's family in a hurry?]
When Xia Miaoyuan followed his father, the
emperor and the queen to the Xiao Mansion, he was really shocked to see this spectacular scene. "Oh, the emperor, the queen, the crown prince, the second prince, and the little princess are all here!" A man with a goatee exclaimed.
All of a sudden, the eyes of the people at the door were all directed at Xia Zhengqi and his family.
Then everyone saluted them and shouted long live the emperor.
Xia Zhengqi waved his hand quickly: "Today is just the full-month banquet for Lord Xiao's daughter, not in the court. Everyone, please be casual and don't be polite."
To be honest, this scene was also a bit unexpected for Xia Zhengqi.
Seeing that the emperor had come, the ministers were even happier, and they all tried their best to act out their close relationship with Xiao Licheng in front of the emperor.
"Master Xiao, congratulations, you finally have a daughter! This time you finally have both a son and a daughter! So happy!" Zuo Bin, the Minister of Works, bowed.
Xiao Licheng had a dark face: ...
Xia Miaoyuan was laughing beside him: [Hahaha, you're here without even finishing your homework! ]
[This Master Zuo, when my uncle was a Shaoqing, he didn't even know where the Xiao Mansion was. This time, seeing that the Xiao family was prosperous, he immediately ran over to give gifts. ]
"Well, Master Zuo, my third brother-in-law gave birth to a second daughter this time." Xia Zhengqi couldn't stand it, so he walked over to correct him.
Xiao Licheng cast a grateful look at the emperor's brother-in-law.
Mr. Zuo: ...
