Everyone lamented that today Chu Yunxi was extraordinarily, well~, generous! He showed his care for the prince generously and fought for what she wanted.
Every time her eyes met with the prince's, there was a flow of affection, and anyone who was not blind could see clearly.
The emperor, who is in a high position, naturally understands it, but I don't know if she has really figured it out or is she just acting?
Concubine Xiao smiled on her face, but her heart was filled with ferocity. This was the second time Chu Yunxi refuted her today.
Since the death of the late queen, no one has dared to neglect her like this. Of course, except for the prince, now there is Chu Yunxi!
After a small interlude, the third piano performance competition began.
Most of the ladies from all the families chose the music of Sikong Yu, the first luthier, and the melodious and melodious sounds could be heard in the hall.
After all the ladies had finished playing, Xiao Feifei winked at one of the ladies. She immediately understood and stood up and said:
"Miss Chu only composed music to participate in the competition today, but today's competition is about piano skills, not composing music. I wonder if Miss Chu can play the piano?"
It turned out to be Shen Bing, the daughter of the Minister of War. The Minister of War was once promoted by Xiao Guogong. It is not surprising that she helped Xiao Feifei stand up and provoke.
Chu Yunxi curled her lips and smiled.
Chu Xueer held her forehead, alas, Xiao Feifei is really as stupid as a pig. She is a good sister who can compose music so well, how can she not know how to play the piano? Isn't this the icing on the cake for her!
Sure enough, Chu Yunxi Yingying stood up and stepped forward:
"I'm afraid of hurting the harmony of the sisters. Since Miss Shen has asked this question, I'll give you a tune."
This, this, is really arrogant! What does it mean to be afraid of hurting the harmony? This is, this is a blatant boast. If a tree is as beautiful as the forest, the wind will destroy it. Doesn’t she understand this?
Everyone stared at each other, it was the first time they saw such a true-hearted woman, ah, what a shameless woman.
"Miss Chu, it's too early for you to speak boldly."
Shen Bing said disdainfully that it was not like she had never seen her piano skills before. Although it was only shown once, she still remembered it, but it was mediocre.
Chu Yunxi sat elegantly in front of the piano and wiped her hands with a handkerchief, her movements were pleasing to the eye.
Ten fingers delicately caress the strings, pause for a moment, pick the strings with one hand's orchid fingers, and tap lightly with the other hand, making a tinkling sound, light and clear, like a girl chasing happily, carefree.
"What song is this?"
"I've never heard of it, it won't be again..."
Some people are already talking quietly.
The gleam in Jun Zifeng's eyes grew even brighter. He had made a lot of money by attending this palace banquet. For many years to come, he would never forget the radiant woman that he had today, who captivated the country, was as elegant as an orchid, and was calm and confident.
The sound of the piano gradually became slower and deeper, like the autumn wind whimpering into the forest. The woman seemed to have encountered something unexpected, and she complained and cried. The listener's heart tightened, wondering what happened to her.
The next moment, when the fingers were flipping, the sound of the piano was urgent and clear, but there was a lingering ending, which made people almost cry. What kind of change could make a free and carefree girl full of resentment and hatred?
Even rough guys who don't know how to play the piano feel compassion in their hearts when they hear it.
Jun Lingyun felt great pain in his heart when he heard it, as if he had returned to the moment when he lost her, and felt the unforgettable loss of his soul all over again. He wished he could hold her in his arms immediately and comfort her scarred body and mind.
The sound of the piano finally calmed down, and each syllable became more profound. It seemed that she had gone on a long journey, returned from a distant place, reborn as a phoenix, and reborn from the ashes.
"Life is like a dream, clouds and smoke pass by, and a dream passes by with the wind through the ages."
Jun Zifeng couldn't help but read something meaningful.
Chu Yunxi stood up, lowered his head, and a drop of tear fell. The beauty shed tears, which made everyone sad. When he raised his eyes, he was filled with smile again.
She is reborn again, isn't she? She has another chance, and everything will be different.
But everyone saw a tough woman who had gone through many hardships but was able to look forward to the future with a smile.
This time, even Xiao Feifei and the others stopped talking. What was there to say? Another new song was composed by Chu Yunxi. With such talent, even jealousy seemed unnecessary.
But why, why did she, a mediocre person, suddenly become a stunningly talented woman?
Chu Xueer was also wondering why, why they came from the same house, but were in the same heaven and the other underground.
For so many years, Chu Yunxi had obeyed her words obediently and kept her cool, allowing her to steal the limelight and mistakenly believe that she was really talented, but in the end, she gave her a heads-up.
Xiao Feifei gave Shen Bing a hateful look. What a useless thing, what a bad idea! She had forgotten that this was what she originally meant.
Shen Bing lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Xiao Feifei. Damn it, how could she know that someone could hide his stupidity for more than ten years.
Everyone thought of Chu Yunxi's words: "I was afraid of hurting the harmony of the sisters." Alas, looking at it now, people couldn't refute it.
"You composed this too?"
The emperor asked curiously. He really didn't expect that Chu Yunxi was so talented.
"Returning to the emperor, my daughter sighed with emotion for a moment. It would be better not to insult the emperor."
I've seen so many of her flamboyant and wanton looks today, and I'm not used to being so humble all of a sudden.
It's just that the last song was a spur of the moment, and this one was a moment of emotion. She can always make a masterpiece of music in a short time! I'm afraid this can only be attributed to her extraordinary talent.
"What's the name of this song?" the emperor asked again.
Chu Yunxi was silent for a long time. Just when everyone thought she was going to ask the prince to name her again, they heard her say:
"Dream!"
Her life is like a dream. The dream in her previous life was shattered and she wakes up from it in this life.
"Dream!" Everyone tasted this word. Doesn't it match what Prince Hao's prince Jun Zifeng said: "Life is like a dream, clouds pass by, and a dream flows with the wind through the ages." Sure enough, those who know the sound know the sound.
Thinking of Jun Zifeng's previous promise to marry a woman who could get the Nine-Sky Linglong Qin, everyone couldn't help but look at him.
Jun Zifeng felt as if he had lost something, as if something important in his life had not been grasped and slipped away quietly.
While everyone was sighing, Chu Yunxi had already returned to his position.
Eunuch Fu counted the votes again. Today, Chu Yunxi's name was remembered by everyone.
Originally, it didn't matter if they didn't get the lottery, but they didn't forget that the emperor said that if they could get the top three prizes, they would win the empress's phoenix bracelet.
Alas, three top titles. In a capital city where talented people are born in large numbers, to win three top prizes in the hands of a young lady who is still qualified to attend the palace banquet is really unmatched.
Just thinking about it again, Chu Yunxi is the future daughter-in-law of the late queen, and it is right for her to get her relics.
But there are always those who are pretentious and unthinkable. For example, Xiao Feifei still dreams of marrying the prince, or Chu Xueer, who will never give up until Chu Yunxi is trampled under her feet.
Chu Yunxi stepped forward again and took over the Jiuxiao Linglong Qin from his mentor and the Phoenix Jade bracelet from the late Queen.
Both of these two things held a heavy weight in her heart. Now that she finally got them back, she was extremely happy and unconsciously smiled at Jun Lingyun.
She didn't know why, after winning the competition and receiving the reward, she immediately wanted to see his reaction and wanted to know if he was satisfied with her performance.
