If An Lingrong was reborn before the draft

Chapter 345: Concubine Chun's rude words

He felt the Queen's inquiring gaze, but he did not look at her. At this moment, even though there was still singing and dancing in the palace, there was still a moment of silence.

Lingrong's heart tightened. She knew that at this moment the emperor's heart was not tilted towards her.

"Rong'er's singing voice is good, but it is different from Queen Chunyuan's." The emperor's words did not sound like an explanation, but no one knew what he wanted to express.

"How can I compare with Queen Chunyuan's singing voice? Please don't defile Queen Chunyuan." Such words are the most hurtful, but it is better to say them yourself than to hear them from others.

"Rong'er, don't underestimate yourself. I haven't heard you sing for a long time. Why don't you sing another song?"

After hearing the emperor's words, Ling Rong suddenly dreamed of her past life when she was summoned by Concubine Hua to Yiku Palace and forced to sing. It was so ridiculous.

When she raised her eyes, she hid her emotions, "Yes, then what song does the emperor want to hear?" Her arms were no match for her thighs, and Lingrong knew that she still had to sing today.

"Just sing a song about the lotus over there!"

Since the emperor had ordered the song, she had no choice but to prepare to sing it. The problem now was that she had to sing well and her singing had to be different from that of Empress Chunyuan, or even more outstanding.

"Lotus can be picked in the south of the Yangtze River. The lotus leaves are so lush and green. Fish play among the lotus leaves. Fish play on the east side of the lotus leaves, fish play on the west side of the lotus leaves, fish play on the south side of the lotus leaves, fish play on the north side of the lotus leaves..."

Originally, there was only the musician's pipa as an accompaniment, but no matter how you listened to it, it didn't seem to be able to highlight the beauty of her singing. Later, Sister Mei's piano joined in, and finally Prince Guo's flute sounded, which made the lotus even more beautiful and the sound linger in the air.

After the song was finished, there was no response in the palace for a long time. Notary Cao saw that the atmosphere in the palace was a little cold, so she immediately spoke up to give everyone a way out, "Ahem, the song of Concubine Xian really fulfilled the line in the poem, this song should only exist in heaven, how many times can it be heard in the world!"

"Yes, yes, Concubine Xian's singing is even better than Empress Chunyuan's!" Even when praising her, she had to find something to make her unhappy. It seemed that Concubine Chun really hated her.

"The singing voice of Consort Xian is good, but Consort Chun has never heard of Empress Chun Yuan's singing, after all, even I have never heard of it!"

Compared to An Lingrong, Zhen Huan and her group are the ones Concubine Hua hates the most.

"I am guilty of my words. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I only wanted to praise Concubine Xian for her beautiful singing voice." After hearing Concubine Hua's words, Concubine Chun immediately realized that her words were too abrupt and hurriedly stood up to apologize to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Chun is still young and she just spoke out of turn. If your sister were still alive, you would not punish her," the Queen immediately pleaded for Concubine Chun in a gentle manner.

When Concubine Chun heard the Queen pleading for her, she immediately looked grateful. However, many people could see clearly that the Emperor actually had no intention of punishing Concubine Chun. After all, this little mistake was nothing.

But when the Queen pleaded for her, there was another consideration. It seemed to be giving the Emperor a way out, but in fact it confirmed Chun Guiren's inappropriate words and deeds.

Even if the emperor did not punish her this time, if she made another verbal mistake in the future, the emperor would immediately remember that she had spoken offensively to Concubine Xian and even Empress Chunyuan.

Lingrong lowered her head and sipped the drink, doing a good job of hiding the faint smile on the corner of her mouth. As expected, the queen is the queen. Even if she sells someone, she still has to count the money for her.

"Go on!" As expected, the emperor did not follow the queen's words to forgive Concubine Chun, nor did he say anything about punishing her. He just let the banquet continue.

After these two times, everyone lost interest. After all, although everyone likes to watch the play, they don’t want to become a part of it.
