As the sound of the piano fell, the prosperous scene in front of everyone slowly came to an end and returned to tranquility. However, the excitement stirring in their hearts could not be calmed for a long time.
The entire banquet fell into silence, until I didn't know who reacted first and clapped subconsciously, causing more and more people to come back to their senses.
Until later, the entire banquet was filled with enthusiastic applause.
From an angle that no one could see, Liu Yingxue had a sinister look on her face.
I am afraid that except for a few people, the vast majority of people at the banquet did not expect that Princess An, who has always been looked down upon by others, not only has amazing skills in piano skills, but also has such an artistic conception that can easily bring people into the world. In the scenes she described, I was attracted and affected by her music.
Amidst the praise, many people discovered that the emperor, who was the first to ascend the throne, had been attracted by Xia Luotong's piano music for some time. At this moment, he also clapped along with everyone, and at the same time, he also clapped with the people beside him. Concubine Wu was chatting happily, obviously talking about the piano music just now.
However, no one saw the gloomy look hidden in the queen's eyes, not only because of Xia Luotong's performance, but also because of Concubine Wu on the other side of the emperor.
Once the song is settled, the verdict is drawn.
Which one of the pieces played by Xia Luotong and Liu Yingxue is better is self-evident and there is no need for anyone to judge.
In the past, Liu Yingxue's piano skills were among the best in the circle of ladies in the capital, but after today, there will be another person standing in front of Liu Yingxue without any doubt, and that is Xia Luotong.
For a moment, everyone had different expressions and flocked to the two of them. At this time, no matter how much hatred she felt in her heart, Liu Yingxue had to put on a look of admiration and applaud Xia Luotong together with others.
What made Liu Yingxue's heart even colder was that she clearly saw several pairs of mocking eyes directed at her, some from other ladies in the house, and some from the ladies.
This was only what she saw, and in the places she didn't see, she didn't know how many disgusting eyes were looking at her.
Liu Yingxue has always known that she cannot be liked by everyone, there will always be some people who are jealous of her, and after Xia Luotong's words today, she knows that there will be more such people, and there will be more People begin to look at themselves with suspicion.
After today, I don’t know how many unfavorable remarks will come out against me. I can’t change this situation immediately, but I can make some remedies as soon as possible.
As long as the banquet on the dragon boat doesn't end, she still has a chance!
But just when Liu Yingxue was trying to think of a chance to make amends, Xia Luotong made her think in vain.
"I heard that Miss Liu has often told others recently that besides playing the piano, I am also outstanding in other aspects. I wonder where Miss Liu heard this news? How come I don't even know that I There are so many advantages? And it seems that I have never met Miss Liu several times. Why does Miss Liu seem to know me very well?" After Xia Luotong stood up, he did not return to his seat, but stood up. On the spot, he looked at Liu Yingxue with a smile.
No one expected that Xia Luotong won the victory based on Liu Yingxue's most proud piano skills and severely humiliated Liu Yingxue. Instead of leaving the scene, he used the current situation to talk about another matter.
What Xia Luotong said was correct. She had indeed not met Liu Yingxue a few times. They were not familiar with each other at all. How could Liu Yingxue know too much about Xia Luotong?
Liu Yingxue either inquired secretly, or she was just talking nonsense.
Jin Qingyue quietly told Xia Luotong this news when she was undergoing treatment at Luo's Medical Center.
Jin Qingyue's face has recovered very well recently, and she has regained a lot of her former self-confidence. She is also willing to attend banquets in various governments. This news is that Jin Qingyue happened to attend a banquet two days ago. heard.
Jin Qingyue naturally knew the rumors that had been widely circulated in the capital. Since Xia Luotong began to help her with treatment, she had a new understanding of Xia Luotong, and naturally no longer believed those previous rumors.
As for Liu Yingxue, the heroine of the scandal, Jin Qingyue also has a different view than before, especially after experiencing the duplicitous Xu Caidi incident.
Not only out of repayment of gratitude, but also because she sincerely regarded Xia Luotong as a friend, Jin Qingyue told Xia Luotong all the news she had obtained without reservation.
Liu Yingxue was stunned for a moment. She obviously didn't expect that Xia Luotong didn't leave when she won. Instead, she continued to hold on to her at this moment. She also didn't expect that Xia Luotong would know about this. Ordinarily, she had just been talking to others. Speaking of this, I thought it would take some time for it to spread, but I didn't expect that Xia Luotong had already gotten the news?
Who told Xia Luotong? !
Liu Yingxue's heart condensed slightly, and she couldn't bear to be angry about the embarrassment just now, and quickly thought about how to deal with the current situation.
But because she had told many people about this matter, she could not be sure who told Xia Luotong about it.
The reason why she spread this news was to prepare for attacking Xia Luotong in all aspects in the future. However, the rumors had not yet spread. If Xia Luotong raised it at this time, the effect would naturally be much worse.
But since Xia Luotong has asked about it, there is no need for her to hide it, just...
Seeing everyone's eyes turning towards her, Liu Yingxue glanced in a certain direction as if subconsciously, then as if she realized something, she quickly withdrew her gaze: "I, I also heard other people talk about it."
The direction Liu Yingxue was looking just now was exactly where Wu Zechen was sitting!
Her cautiously peeking eyes, everyone's attention was originally on her at the moment, so how could she miss it?
In addition, her slightly nervous expression at this time, in the eyes of others, didn't she look like she accidentally let something slip?
It was Prince An who told Liu Yingxue? Why did Prince An tell Liu Yingxue about his princess?
Almost immediately, most people had such a reaction in their minds.
Xia Luotong raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, Liu Yingxue was really good at pretending, and she never forgot about acting.
But on the surface, Xia Luotong didn't reveal anything. He even looked at Wu Zechen pretending to be surprised and asked, "Your Majesty, was it you who told Miss Liu about this?"
This time, it was a surprise to others. Liu Yingxue's look was obvious to everyone, but who would say it in front of so many people? What's more, the scandal between Prince An and Liu Yingxue was already widely spread. If this were to be revealed directly, not only would everyone be embarrassed, but Prince An would also be angry, right?
Who doesn't know that Prince An has a bad temper and doesn't treat anyone well, especially if he is provoked, but no matter who the person is, even the prince will suffer at the hands of Prince An!
