Chapter 217 Greetings to his eighteen generations of ancestors
Nightfall!
The East Palace is very lively.
The empress and Emperor Wu came, and several noble concubines were also present.
There is no way, now that the prince is in the limelight, no one can refuse such a high-profile invitation.
In addition, the second prince Wu Zheng also came.
It is worth mentioning that the second prince and the fourth prince are both descended from the queen.
Because of this, the second prince Wu Zheng is the most powerful competitor.
Unfortunately, Wu Yuan's biological mother was also a former empress, and his status as the eldest son was Wu Zheng's biggest obstacle.
Originally, Wu Yuan also invited the fourth prince, but the fourth prince was a guy who couldn't stand up to the public. When he heard that today's dinner was so grand, he immediately called in sick and couldn't come.
For this reason, he specially prepared generous gifts, hoping to silence Wu Yuan's mouth.
Wu Yuan didn't care about this at all. One more of him was not too much, one less of him was not a big deal. As long as Wu Zheng could come.
The queen's face has not looked very good since she arrived at the East Palace.
She didn't know what medicine Wu Yuan was selling in his gourd, but she could feel that Wu Yuan was here for her.
Wu Yuan was not a person who suffered losses. She asked someone to shave Murong Haitang's hair. Wu Yuan could not remain silent.
Even last night, she was ready to find Wu Yuan again.
Of course, as long as Wu Yuan dares to look for him, she will teach him a lesson about his next plan.
But he didn't expect that Wu Yuan not only didn't come, but also prepared today's dinner.
Although she knew that she would not be afraid of this matter even if it caused trouble to Emperor Wu, Wu Yuan's endless methods made her a little worried.
Moreover, everyone had almost arrived, but Wu Yuan still didn't show up.
According to the rules, when she, the empress, and Emperor Wu arrived, Wu Yuan should come out to greet them in person.
But the only person who came out to greet him was Xin Ruyan, not Wu Yuan.
Feeling unhappy, she looked at Xin Ruyan.
"Crown Princess, why hasn't the Crown Prince shown up yet? Is it possible that His Majesty and I have been kept waiting?" the Queen asked.
Xin Ruyan listened and explained calmly: "Back to the queen, the prince has worked hard to prepare today's dinner. He is currently preparing for a special program. I believe that your majesty and the queen will not be disappointed tonight."
After hearing Xin Ruyan's words, the queen was even more worried and had a bad feeling.
"It doesn't matter! The prince has done a lot of things in recent days. I think he is tired. It doesn't matter if he waits a little longer."
Emperor Wu had already spoken, so of course the Queen couldn't say anything.
Wu Zheng curled his lips, feeling very unhappy and jealous.
If it had been him, he would have been scolded by Emperor Wu long ago.
The Queen's eyes changed and she came up with an idea, "It's enough to wait, but we can't wait, right? Yesterday, His Majesty also said that he wanted to listen to the song "I Love You, Dawu" sung by Murong Haitang, Princess of Huile, in person.
Well, now is the time to ask Princess Huile to sing for Your Majesty."
Emperor Wu heard this and immediately agreed.
"Well, this song has been sung outside the palace now, but I haven't heard it yet, but the lyrics really make me happy."
Everyone agreed after hearing this.
It's just that a few concubines secretly sneered at him.
But most of them are jealous, because that song is really great.
Not only was it rewarded by Emperor Wu, but it also spread widely in a very short period of time.
This is not over yet. Just this afternoon, Emperor Wu heard a palace maid singing beautifully in the imperial garden, so he immediately accepted it and sealed the reward.
This shows how powerful this song is.
If you listen to the original song too much later, it will make Emperor Wu extremely happy?
Therefore, these concubines were confused as to why the queen took the initiative to bring up this matter. Wasn't it aimed at Murong Haitang?
Xin Ruyan and Mo Qiaoer looked at each other, and they both knew that the queen had no good intentions.
This was because he wanted to embarrass Murong Haitang in public.
Even if it is not possible, it is not impossible to send Murong Haitang directly to the temple to become a nun.
However, Xin Ruyan and Mo Qiaoer nodded tacitly, as if they were well prepared.
Then Xin Ruyan said: "Your Majesty, the Queen, Princess Huile knows that Your Majesty is coming and has already made preparations. Your Majesty, please take a look."
As soon as Xin Ruyan finished speaking, Mo Qiaoer suddenly jumped deep.
Mo Qiaoer jumped onto the roof, and in the next second, he pulled down the curtain that had been placed long ago.
Everyone exclaimed.
Just saw a beautiful scene.
Murong Haitang was sitting on the roof playing the piano like a fairy. It happened that the bright moon was floating above Murong Haitang's head.
Like a sacred halo, Murong Haitang was covered with a layer of mysterious brilliance.
The breeze blew by, picking up Murong Haitang's gauze skirt and hair, and she felt like a fairy in an instant.
"So beautiful!" A concubine admired sincerely, but the queen stared at her and lowered her head.
At this time, the queen's face was extremely gloomy.
She wanted everyone to see Murong Haitang being embarrassed, but the result was good, she actually made Murong Haitang happy.
It is undeniable that at this moment, Murong Haitang is really incredibly beautiful.
Emperor Wu looked straight at her, and even couldn't help but regret in his heart, "Why did you make the princess a princess in the first place? She should have been included in the harem."
Naturally, this kind of thought is just something I think about now.
After all, Emperor Wu knew very well that it was impossible for her to pull Murong Haitang to his pillow. Her status as a former princess was enough for Emperor Wu to keep a distance from Murong Haitang.
Immediately, Murong Haitang began to sing softly.
The ethereal sound, coupled with the lyrics and music that directly touch the soul, is like an audio-visual feast.
Not to mention anything else, just this moment made everyone feel that the trip was worthwhile.
Also feeling regretful was Wu Zheng.
He once had such a fairy, but at that time he didn't know that Murong Haitang was the princess of the previous dynasty.
He only regarded Murong Haitang as a tool.
Now my intestines are almost green.
Sing a song.
When everyone was still unfinished, Mo Qiaoer, who had been prepared early, suddenly swayed the curtain. In this panic, everyone was surprised to find that Murong Haitang had disappeared.
Emperor Wu was startled at first, and then took the lead in applauding.
He kept praising her, "Princess Hui Le is so determined. It is really rare for her to be able to compose such great lyrics and music for me, Da Wu."
"Go and call Huile. I will give her this jade pendant."
It is not easy to get the things that the emperor carries with him, otherwise, the emperor would have been bald long ago.
For a time, it aroused the jealousy of many people.
However, the Queen became happy. Now it was better. Murong Haitang could not avoid being summoned.
"How radiant you were just now, how embarrassing you will be later." The Queen sneered.
