In fact, what the queen said was a lot more biased. At times like this, performances are something people rush to do. Even Xiao Yueran took the initiative to prepare herself, but no one begged her to do such a thing.
I want to show off my vanity, but I still don’t want to make people feel relaxed. I’m clearly obsessed with death!
Xiao Yuexi raised her head in astonishment. She was only surprised for a moment and then smiled bitterly.
What else could she do?
"Yes, I obey."
She accepted the task, but Xiao Yueran didn't intend to let her go easily, and just sneered.
"I would like to hear what kind of elegant music you are singing today."
Xiao Yuexi just paused and her beautiful eyes fell on her, "Okay, I will let my sister know what elegance is today!"
At first glance, I thought she was speaking out of anger, but people who are familiar with Xiao Yuexi know that she is capable of this.
"Jiaoweiqin?"
An exclamation suddenly came, and everyone's eyes fell on the piano in front of Xiao Yuexi.
She hadn't opened this piano for a long time. Every time she attended a palace banquet, she would hide away whenever she could. But she knew that one day she would not be able to escape, so she always had people take it with her.
"How come you have this thing?"
Xiao Yueran's voice became sharp.
She had been looking for this Jiaowei Qin for a long time, always thinking that only someone like herself was worthy of it, but how could it be in Xiao Yuexi's hands?
She is not willing to give in!
Xiao Yuexi snorted coldly, "Is it difficult for you if I don't?"
"You! Where did you get it? You..."
"That's enough! Yue Ran!"
Seeing that Xiao Yueran was about to lose her composure, the queen spoke.
Jin Yan held her chin with her hand and looked in the direction of Xi Yunnuo with vague eyes. She didn't know what this little protagonist was thinking, that he could see such a domineering and brainless woman.
Xiao Yueran sat in her seat rather reluctantly.
Xiao Yuexi adjusted the sound of the piano, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, placed her hands on the strings, and took a deep breath.
When she opened her eyes again, there was a soft light in her eyes, and lightness jumped out. Each gentle note was like a beautiful chapter, dancing gracefully under the dim light of the glass lamp.
Every tone of hers is not only accurate, but most importantly, it has charm and emotion.
Xiao Yuexi has a natural sensitivity to music and can accurately capture the emotions inside, down to the root of her hair. When the same piece of music comes out of her hands, it always has a different charm.
The expressions on everyone's faces ranged from confusion, to shock, to disbelief, to finally fascination...
Only Xiao Yueran was panicked.
Xiyunnuo was shocked.
Xiao Tong and Jin Yan, on the other hand, seemed to have expected it. Their eyes fell on her, with full smiles, feeling happy and distressed.
In such an occasion, they couldn't come forward to help, otherwise it would cause her a greater disaster, but fortunately, she could handle it.
Xiao Tong is such a smart person, I am afraid he has warned Xiao Yuexi a long time ago.
Although Xiao Yuexi is innocent and pure, how can a princess who grew up in a royal family and a beauty who has wandered among the people be such a useless idiot who doesn't understand anything?
The sound of the piano fell, but the strings were still trembling.
Xiao Yuexi touched it with her hands, as if caressing a delicate flower that had newly bloomed in the morning. The dew on the trembling petals was cool and full of new energy.
The corner of her mouth raised into a smile, her eyes only glanced at Xiao Yueran, and soon she knelt on the ground and thanked the queen.
She said that she was just lacking in talent and learning, and that she had made a fool of herself.
But it felt like heavy slaps hitting Xiao Yueran's face one after another.
It is clear at a glance who is lacking in talent and learning, and who is showing off his humiliation.
They are both princesses, but at this time they are in completely different realms.
"Yue Xi is humble."
Even the queen reluctantly said something.
The faces of the musicians who have not yet left the palace are all glowing, and they are the simplest and simplest excitement when meeting a close friend and a strong person.
"I didn't know Xi'er had such ability!"
The powerful voice suddenly came, and everyone on the field was stunned for a moment, and then everyone knelt down and saluted.
With a smile on his face, the emperor looked at Xiao Yuexi with great satisfaction.
"Okay! Good boy! If I hadn't come with you just now, I'm afraid I would have missed it again. Here you come! Bring some pieces of brocade that I paid tribute to in the past few days and give them to Princess Yuexi."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the others and said with a slight smile, "I was also attracted by the sound of the piano just now. Please continue, don't let me put you off."
After saying this, the emperor turned around and left.
The queen's eyes stayed on Xiao Yuexi for a moment, and then said, "Since Xi'er has such talent, it's better not to hide her clumsiness in the future."
"I know I'm wrong. I just feel that my skills are inferior to others and I don't want others to laugh at me."
As soon as these words came out, I don’t know how many people were slapped in the face.
Then she added, "It's rare for the ladies from each family to enter the palace. We should give them more opportunities to show off. My sons and daughters are princesses. They are usually in front of their father, emperor and queen, so they have many more opportunities to show themselves."
"Besides, my father and mother are very discerning, and the musicians in the palace are all of the highest level. I can ask for advice if I want. The resources they get are naturally incomparable to them. It would be understandable if they were a little better."
, It’s not that my son is very talented, it’s just that he has the advantage of his status.”
When she said this, the women on the scene who were still a little jealous all started to feel good about her.
And Xiao Yuexi is right.
There are only a few palace banquets in a year, and at one palace banquet, the time for important people like the emperor and queen to be present is very small. Coupled with the performances of the palace dancers and musicians, the opportunities for their turn are few and far between.
Sometimes you may not get a chance to perform on stage even after a year or two of preparation, but Xiao Yueran danced last time, sang this time, and played pipa next time...it seemed like it had become her own repertoire.
In such a comparison, Xiao Yuexi is not only considerate, but also much more capable than Xiao Yueran.
In an instant, the highs and lows are immediately apparent.
"Xi'er is right, the queen mother didn't think carefully."
The queen said calmly.
She naturally didn't like Xiao Yuexi being like this, but in this situation, she couldn't say anything.
After such an experience, the queen did not stay long and left.
The prelude to New Year's Eve has just begun, and the palace banquet has come to an end. Next, each family will go back to watch the New Year's Eve, which is the real family happiness.
The prince and the imperial master were left in the palace, and Xiao Yuexi appeared silently on Jinyan's carriage, looking pitiful, without any of the momentum from before, just like a little milk cat.
"Please take me in."
She said with tears in her eyes.
Jin Yan was very helpless and was about to drive away people.
She added, "Brother Huang is not here either, so I have nowhere to go now."
Tears were about to fall as she spoke, her mouth tightened, and if Jinyan shook her head, she would cry immediately...
