Chapter 5 The Queen's Viewpoint
On this continent, there are many dynasties.
Although the Great Zhou Dynasty had a prosperous country, it was surrounded by enemy countries on all sides.
In that barbarian country alone, there are many peerless geniuses.
However, there were very few people who wrote poems and dances in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Therefore, every Lantern Festival, the barbarian country will send people to compose poems to mock the lack of people in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
This time, the Emperor of the Great Zhou took out the city to gamble.
So they can only win but not lose!
After a long time, a concubine recited a poem.
"Green leaves and red flowers are fragrant all over the ground, and the wind blows on the water to make it cool."
"A pool of blue waves floats in the shadows, and the lotus pond reflects the moonlight."
As soon as the words fell, all the concubines nodded in praise, and even the empress heard the words, with a twitch of her lips and a flash of approval in her eyes.
The concubine saw the empress showing approval, and cast a glance at Concubine Liu Gui, her eyes were full of complacency.
The two of them married into the palace together, and Concubine Liu Gui was favored by the emperor, and she rose to the top and got the position of concubine.
On the other hand, she is only a concubine of one class, and she is always inferior to others.
After a long time, I unknowingly hated Concubine Liu Gui.
I think she stole my luck.
Thinking of this, the concubine looked at Concubine Liu Gui with a smile on her lips, and said with a smile: "Concubine Liu Gui, the poem that my sister just recited is loved by the empress, but presumably, the concubine is very capable. How about reciting a poem in public?"
After the words fell, all the concubines laughed secretly in their hearts.
The entire harem knows that Concubine Liu Gui doesn't like poetry and prose, but only likes to wield knives and guns, so let her recite poems and prose?
I'm afraid sows can climb trees!
The queen's eyes were calm, and there was no trace of persuasion at all.
Concubine Liu Gui looked indifferent, but did not say a word.
At this time, Xiao Chen stood up and said with a smile: "Forgive me for saying something boldly, although the poems of the ladies are fresh and elegant, they are commonplace, not like poetry, but like a match."
The words were quite rude.
One word shocked everyone!
After the words fell, the entire Kunning Palace fell silent.
The eyes full of anger could almost eat Xiao Chen raw.
You know, Concubine Liu Gui was not liked by them in the first place, and now the servants around her can be so rampant, everyone is furious for a while, and the voices of scolding are endless.
"Slave dog, I think you want to die!" The concubine let out a cold sigh, then leaned over and said to the queen.
"Empress, this slave is so cowardly, I petition to chop him up and feed him to the dogs!"
Before the queen could speak, Xiao Chen snorted coldly: "The slave is very fond of the queen, and in the future he will go to Kunning Palace to serve the queen, and the concubine who wants to kill the queen is too lenient. Bar?"
This sentence can be described as extremely cruel.
The startled concubine was speechless for a while, and froze in place, suddenly not knowing what to do.
With such a scene, the queen appreciated Xiao Chen even more.
This little eunuch is really nice.
Concubine Liu Gui didn't expect that Xiao Chen would dare to be so arrogant in Kunning Palace.
It seems that I have chosen the right person.
Seeing that the queen was very satisfied with Xiao Chen, the corners of Concubine Liu Gui's mouth curled up.
Now it seems that his plan is about to be implemented successfully.
"Little eunuch, just talk and don't practice fake moves, I want to see what qualifications you have to say that there is no one in my harem?" She is the master of the harem after all, so naturally she will not descend to be a eunuch to make decisions, the corner of her mouth curled up. , smiling playfully.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen bowed and clasped his fists and said, "Go back to your mother, this slave is not talented. When I was young, I knew how to write and write, and loved to compose poems and eulogies. Today, this slave has the courage to sing it."
"Yun." The queen said lightly.
After the words fell, the corners of Xiao Chen's mouth curled up.
Gentlemen, I'm sorry!
While thinking, Xiao Chen took a step forward and pondered for a moment.
All the concubines cast curious gazes, even Concubine Liu Gui's beautiful eyes shone brightly, as if she was expecting something.
After a long time, Xiao Chen suddenly opened his mouth and recited a poem.
"Li Liyuan grows grass, grows old and grows once a year, the wild fire is endless, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates!"
"Yuanfang invades the ancient road, Qingcui picks up the deserted city, and sends the king and grandson there, full of love."
hiss!
After the voice fell, the entire Kunning Palace fell silent.
Needle drop can be heard!
After a long time, everyone came to their senses from the shock. Their eyes were bright and colorful, and they were still immersed in the poems Xiao Chen recited.
Absolutely!
Absolutely!
It's really an ancient quatrain!
The queen looked into Xiao Chen's eyes, as if staring at a treasure, which made him tremble all over.
"Come here, give me a seat!" At this moment, the queen waved her jade hand, and the voice fell, and the whole Kunning Palace was silent for a long time.
The eyes of all the concubines were full of shock, and the faces of the eunuchs were even more unbelievable.
Give the eunuch a seat?
It is unique in the entire harem!
At this moment, the concubines of Kunning Palace seemed to smell something unusual.
I'm afraid, the sky in the harem...
It's about to change!
Xiao Chen didn't expect to be given a seat by the queen.
For a while, it felt like sitting on pins and needles.
Although Concubine Liu Gui was calm on the surface, she was already happy in her heart.
The more the queen attaches importance to Xiao Chen, the smoother her plan will be.
Next, she just needs to wait.
As for the slave Xiao Chen...
It's just chess pieces!
However, thinking of yesterday's madness, Concubine Liu Gui still decided to give Xiao Chen a generous burial.
If Xiao Chen knew what Concubine Liu Gui was thinking at this moment, he might be so angry that he would directly expose what Concubine Liu Gui had done in public.
I'm working hard for you, but you only want to betray me?
Seeing Xiao Chen being bestowed a seat by the empress herself, the concubine who was looking for trouble suddenly changed her face, she lowered her head and dared not speak.
But, how could Xiao Chen let her go?
Lifting Erlang's legs, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said with a smile: "This concubine, I don't know how the slave chant is? If there are shortcomings, I hope the concubine can give me some pointers?"
After the voice fell, the concubine didn't dare to raise her head anymore.
The poems written by Xiao Chen were rewarded by the empress, if she gave some pointers, wouldn't it mean that the empress' skills are not as good as hers?
I am just a concubine, do I want to die?
"Okay, since this little eunuch can sing quatrains and is the person close to me, this time the poem composition competition, we can count this little eunuch as the winner." At this time, the queen suddenly said.
The voice fell, and everyone dared not refute.
