The prince of love, the wealth has come to me

Chapter 115: Show off your talents

After this incident, everyone began to enjoy the dance again.

Perhaps it was because Ling Yueqing's gaze was too undisguised, the Queen seemed to notice something and turned her head to look over.

The moment their eyes met, Ling Yueqing clearly saw the shock and disbelief that flashed across the Queen's eyes.

Ling Yueqing's mind was full of question marks. What did this look mean? In her memory, she had never seen the queen.

The queen seemed to have seen her, or maybe she hadn't seen her.

She didn't have time to think about it, because the talent competition he imagined was still here.

After three drinks.

Prime Minister Shen stood up first and said, "Your Majesty, I, Rumeng, specially prepared a song for today's banquet for all the heroes, dedicated to Your Majesty and the envoys."

Emperor Qianyang was in a very good mood, and he would respond to any request. "Then let her come up. If she performs well, I will reward her handsomely."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Prime Minister Shen whispered a few words to the person next to him, and the man went down.

After a while, Shen Rumeng walked in.

She was wearing a pink dress with exquisite patterns embroidered on it.

The hem of her skirt folded like a blooming flower, swaying gently with her steps.

She wore a jeweled belt around her waist, which emitted a soft glow and outlined her slender waist.

She was followed by a group of dancers in white, and soon the piano and chairs were set up.

"Your Majesty, I am Shen Rumeng, your servant. I hope you will forgive me if my playing is not good." Shen Rumeng bowed tenderly to the Emperor Qianyang and sat down beside the piano.

As Shen Rumeng gently plucked the strings of the zither, a pleasant and melodious sound rang out in the hall.

It is not difficult to see that she has been practicing the piano for many years. Her fingering is skillful, her movements are smooth, and her every move is elegant.

The dancing girls danced around Shen Rumeng. Their movements were light and graceful, complementing the music of the piano. The whole hall seemed like a feast for the eyes and ears.

Emperor Qianyang closed his eyes slightly, immersed in the wonderful music and dance, and a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The ministers around also nodded in praise, expressing their admiration for Shen Rumeng's piano skills.

She is worthy of being the most talented woman in Shengjing for three consecutive terms. Her reputation is well-deserved.

When the song ended, there was prolonged applause and praise in the hall.

"Prime Minister, your family has raised a really good daughter. I would be thankful if my wild girl could be half as quiet as your daughter."

"The Prime Minister is indeed a good parent. His son and daughter are both extremely talented."

Prime Minister Shen smiled and waved his hand modestly, "No, no, I just learned a little bit."

But the satisfaction and pride in his eyes could not be concealed.

Emperor Qianyang spoke with satisfaction, "Shen Rumeng, you have a nice name, and you play the zither well, your reputation is well-deserved."

"What reward do you want? I will grant it to you."

"Any reward is acceptable?" Shen Rumeng asked in a delicate voice.

"Yes, feel free to speak up."

Everyone thinks that what women want is nothing more than some jewelry and beautiful clothes.

Unexpectedly, Shen Rumeng bowed and said, "I have admired the emperor since I was a child. Now that I have passed the age of marriage, I want to enter the palace to accompany you."

The older men present didn't show it on the surface, but they were wailing in their hearts. Why was this beauty only seeing the royal brothers? Why couldn't she open her eyes and look at them?

Emperor Qianyang was surprised for only a few seconds. She looked at Prime Minister Shen. Prime Minister Shen lowered his head and said nothing, and the expression on his face could not be seen clearly.

Emperor Qianyang had a rough idea in his mind. Although the empress announced to the public was the daughter of the prime minister, it was not true after all. The old man wanted to send another daughter into the palace.

What can I do? I can only agree to it now, because I did borrow someone else's reputation at that time.

"I see that Rumeng is multi-talented, beautiful and intelligent, and I am very happy with her. I just don't know if the Prime Minister is willing to bear the pain and let her go."

Prime Minister Shen then stood up and said, "It is Rumeng's blessing that the emperor likes her, and it is also my honor."

"Okay, take a seat. The decree of enthronement will be sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow." Emperor Qianyang made the final decision.

He liked beautiful women, and he liked talented beauties even more. However, the feeling of being dominated by others made him feel uncomfortable, and he also had a prejudice against the prime minister in his heart.

"There are many talented men and women in Shengjing, but if anyone is willing to perform, I will reward them all."

Upon hearing this, performers emerged one after another, including those performing fan dance, flute playing, sword dance, calligraphy and painting, with the main theme of letting a hundred flowers bloom.

But because there are so many wonderful things before, the ones that come after are a little bland.

Jiang Wanrou chose to play the piano like Shen Rumeng. Her piano playing was pleasant to the ear. After all, she had studied hard for several years. It was a pity that it was all technique and no emotion at all.

After the song, she stood up and recommended it to the emperor, "I heard that Princess Zhan also prepared talents for the Banquet of Heroes. I have heard that Princess Zhan is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I am looking forward to it."

She had heard of it, but she simply didn't believe it. How could a family of military commanders have any culture? Could it be possible that they could really produce a talented woman?

"Oh? Really? Has the Empress prepared any talent?"

Ling Yueqing secretly rolled her eyes and was extremely speechless about these people who spoke in a sarcastic tone.

I also heard that I prepared a talent show. Where did you hear that? Was it in a dream?

The emperor was even more speechless. You came to my house specifically to tell me to show my skills and not to hide my shortcomings. Don’t you know whether I have any talents or not?

However, Ling Yueqing did not respond directly. She was still waiting to get the reward for her talent.

In this way, let them broaden their horizons.

"Your Majesty, I did prepare a little talent, but the sisters performed so well that I am embarrassed to show off."

Jiang Wanrou was afraid that the emperor would allow her not to perform, so she took the lead and said, "Princess Zhan is too modest. It is our honor to see Princess Zhan's performance."

People began to agree, some were sincere and some were fake.

"That's right, don't worry, my sister-in-law. We are just here to have fun today. It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad."

"Well, then I will respectfully obey your command."

Afterwards, Ling Yueqing asked Chi Feng to get the violin.

Everyone looked at the strange box in Chi Feng's hand with curiosity.

When he saw Ling Yueqing open it and take out the violin, his face showed even more surprise.

Emperor Qianyang had never seen it before, so he asked curiously, "What is that in the emperor's sister-in-law's hand?"

“Your Majesty, what I am holding in my hand is a violin, which is similar to the guqin. It was acquired by my master by chance when he was traveling.

Ling Yueqing gently placed the violin on her shoulder, her movements graceful and confident.

Then she closed her eyes and began to play. As her hands moved, notes flowed from the strings like water, and the melody was gentle and beautiful.

For a moment, everyone was fascinated by what they heard.
