Chapter 296 Hello Adoptive Father, Goodbye Adoptive Father (42)

For the next banquet, Shen Chuci just felt bored.

In order to let the two princes and the King of Qing thoroughly understand these young ladies, the imperial concubine arranged for them to perform. Of course, the order of the performances was based on the official position of the father in the family.

There were very few performances that could provide entertainment in ancient times. Basically, except for books and paintings that could not be performed here due to time constraints, the rest of the piano, chess, singing and dancing have been completely rotten.

Shen Chuci saw that a girl had changed to perform for the third time on the temporarily built stage. Shen Chuci felt extremely bored, stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Xingchen's sleeve and asked: "This time they are playing what?"

Xiao Xingchen was talking to Liu Dazhuang and the others, but when he heard Shen Chuci's question, he just casually glanced at the stage, didn't even see the girl's face, just glanced at the girl's instrument on the shelf.

"This time it's Pipa." Xiao Xingchen said lightly.

Shen Chuci let out an "oh".

This is already the fifth player to play musical instruments after the one who danced with flowers just now.

Shen Chuci slowly stretched out his fingers and counted, the first one is a violin, the second one is an erhu, the third one seems to be a flute, what is the fourth one?

Shen Chuci scratched her head, she couldn't remember.

The emperor had a good time watching it from the high platform. Generally speaking, the emperor is well-informed, but now these people are noble women in court, and they don’t often perform in front of people after learning these things. Yes, although the emperor is a person who can have whatever he wants, but no matter what, it is impossible to force the daughter of his own minister to perform for him.

Of course, the things performed by the noble girls who have been educated since childhood are not in the same mood as those who make a living out of this, so the emperor is quite rare about this performance.

After all, Shen Chuci is not from this world in his bones, so he really doesn't like the performances in this world at all, and the more he watches, the more boring he feels.

Turning his eyes around, Shen Chuci fixed his eyes when they landed on the face of King Qing on the second high platform.

King Qing obviously didn't pay attention to the performance, when Shen Chuci's gaze fell, King Qing quickly noticed it.

Because of Shen Chuci's performance before, King Qing's attitude towards Shen Chuci was not bad, and he smiled at her.

Shen Chuci immediately rolled his eyes.

Although she deliberately dealt with King Qing before, but now that her goal has been achieved, she doesn't intend to have anything to do with King Qing anymore.

Her goal now is to conquer Xiao Xingchen, even if the task is completed, and within her own feasibility, she only needs to make Xiao Xingchen and Shen Chuci live a good life in the future.

King Qing was taken aback by Shen Chuci's reaction.

Immediately, he couldn't hold back a burst of laughter.

The girl's reaction was completely out of his consideration, she was really a strange little girl.

Originally, when he sent someone to follow Mrs. Liu, he was told by his subordinates that he had been discovered. He thought it was Mrs. Liu's ability, but just before that, he changed his view of this little girl.

He originally thought that Xiao Xingchen had arranged everything properly, but now that Xiao Xingchen didn't know about it and didn't intend to get involved, it was obvious that he was going to wait and see what happened, so the one before was this little girl who made her own decisions.

That's interesting.

At such a young age, the little girl can still have such thoughts.

The fourth prince was concerned about the emperor on the stage, and his gaze fell on the stage in a regular manner. However, he has always had the ability to be able to do two things at once, so when King Qing smiled, the fourth prince noticed it.

Taking advantage of the short time when a noble lady was performing on stage at one o'clock, he turned his head and glanced at Wang Qing with a half-smile.

King Qing noticed the fourth prince's gaze, and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

The fourth prince smiled: "What is so funny?"

King Qing looked around but found no one looking at them, and replied in a low voice: "The little girl next to General Zhen Guo is very interesting."

The fourth prince let out a long "Oh", turned his head and glanced at the place where Shen Chuci said, seeing that she was already showing a restrained and impatient look, he immediately laughed too: "It's quite interesting, maybe She is the only little girl who dares to show impatience in front of her father."

King Qing laughed: "It's not just a girl, she is the only one in the world who is so brave."

The fourth prince suddenly laughed even more heartily.

"Yes, there is only one person in the world."

Shen Chuci didn't know that she had become the only person in the mouth of the fourth prince and King Qing, she was feeling a little hungry at this moment, and was planning to ask Xiao Xingchen to bring her some food.

The food at the palace banquet is very delicate, but the location is very far away, Shen Chuci's hands are not long enough, and the bowls and chopsticks in front of him are too expensive, Shen Chuci does not want to be like a monkey Scratching his ears and cheeks to pick up vegetables, he stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Xingchen.

As soon as Xiao Xingchen's eyes fell on Shen Chuci, before the two had time to speak, the atmosphere in the whole hall suddenly changed!
It was a very subtle change, as if a drop of water suddenly dripped into the originally calm oil pan, and the whole oil pan began to explode almost instantly.

It was a young lady from an unknown family who had just come on stage and was about to perform. She overturned the piano stand of the previous lady, and pulled out a long and slender sword with her backhand from behind the piano stand.

The light of the long sword was covered by the shining light in the hall, but the awe-inspiring murderous aura shot directly towards the four directions of the hall.

"Escort!"

The stern eunuch's voice sounded, Shen Chuci only saw a blur in front of her eyes, and then Xiao Xingchen's tall figure stood in front of her, at the same time Liu Dazhuang and everyone else blocked in front of the high platform.

The emperor and concubine were surrounded by groups.

The sword light and sword shadow erupted completely almost in an instant.

The screams of the palace maids and eunuchs were mixed with the cries for help from those daughters or ministers. Although Shen Chuci was tightly blocked by Xiao Xingchen and could not see the front, it is conceivable that now How bloody is the scene.

The thick smell of blood continued to radiate, and Shen Chuci could hear the sound of people falling to the ground. Those assassins appeared from all over the hall, attacking the emperor who was surrounded in the middle.

The king of Qing and the fourth prince had already stood in front of the emperor for the first time, but the second prince was a step behind, so he could only go to the crowd and fight hard.

The sound of the sword piercing into the flesh, and the blood splattering out continued to resound.
