: Abused in the Prince’s Mansion (13)
Jiang Rao is practicing piano music these days. The music was sent by Xie Yan.
Compared with practicing dancing, it is indeed easier to play the piano. She also learned it when she was in heaven, but she is not proficient in it.
When the time comes, he will use Xiao to coordinate his ensemble. Regardless of whether he can win the title of Hundred Flowers Banquet, her reputation will not be too bad.
After all, Xie Yan is the one who performs the ensemble.
She doesn't take advantage of anything, and she's not a fool.
Concubine Liu was probably busy with the Hundred Flowers Banquet and didn't come to cause trouble for her; and Wei Jinchi, not to mention, ignored her as if she was nothing.
This is convenient for her.
After the witchcraft incident, the servants in the mansion may have known that Jiang Rao was not easy to mess with, and did not abuse her like the original owner.
It's just that there are a few items missing or the items delivered are second-rate, but it's still pretty safe.
…
Half a month goes by in a blink of an eye.
On the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet, intermittent carriages entered the palace after being carefully inspected by the guards.
The originally solemn and quiet place became a little more lively.
Jiang Rao followed Wei Jin to the banquet and there were already many people there. After she sat down, she looked around and saw that the thank you banquet had not come yet.
She sat there silently, with a dignified posture.
Wei Jinchi noticed the rules of the people next to him and glanced sideways at her.
After the last frame-up incident, he saw that Jiang Rao was not a dignified person, but she behaved gracefully and generously every time she entered the palace. He didn't know what she was thinking.
He thought it would be hard for her to be treated coldly by him, but he found her quite comfortable.
Of course Jiang Rao didn't know what Wei Jinchi was thinking.
She was a little bored and was just thinking about when the thank you banquet would arrive when she heard the ceremonial eunuch's announcement.
"The Prime Minister has arrived."
Everyone at the banquet became a little quieter and looked at the banquet entrance involuntarily.
The man was wearing a well-tailored white brocade robe, with delicate patterns dotting the neckline. There was not much embellishment in the rest of the place, but it looked a bit low-key and luxurious.
The facial features are exquisite and perfect, the dark eyes are slightly lowered, and the expression is light.
It gives people a stunning feeling of being a gentleman.
Jiang Rao naturally looked over.
The man seemed to turn his eyes to look at her, and their eyes happened to meet, and then they both looked away.
Xie Yan sat in the first place on the right, diagonally above the emperor's seat, which showed that his status was extraordinary.
Soon after, Emperor Wei, Queen Wei and others came together and said a few words to officially start the banquet.
The banquet was carried out in a lively and solemn manner, with the sound of silk and bamboo playing endlessly, and people drinking and drinking among each other in a harmonious manner.
I don’t know how long it took, but finally it was time for the performance competition.
The aristocratic ladies took to the battlefield one after another to show off their talents. It was wonderful.
After an official lady finished her dance performance, Jiang Rao glanced at Xie Yan.
Seeing him nodding slightly, Jiang Rao was about to stand up, but unexpectedly the sixth princess Wei Yuanyin walked into the middle.
After she finished her salute, she said, "My son, I heard that the dancing and music rituals of Jiang State are very good. I wonder if Princess Jiang can compete with me?"
The whole place fell silent.
Cheng Yaojin really showed up halfway.
Jiang Rao had no choice but to stand up and salute. After thinking for a moment, he opened his lips lightly.
"I have also heard that the Sixth Princess is both talented and beautiful, especially in dancing. I know that I am beyond her reach, so I am willing to accompany the princess."
When Wei Yuanyin heard that she wanted to accompany him, she thought she was being pushed down by him. She raised her eyebrows slightly and her face was full of arrogance.
"So good."
Seeing that the two reached a consensus, Emperor Wei agreed.
Xie Yan picked up the wine glass and used the raised sleeves to cover the corners of his lightly raised lips.
Rather smart.
This trick of 'retreating in order to advance' is very useful.
