Chapter 276

They sat down in the garden and thought for a while. Qingfeng stopped, didn't walk there and didn't say hello to the elder sister. He knelt down with the crowd and said, "attend the two palace empresses, and the Empress Dowager will be happy."

Lou Suxin's haughty voice rings faintly: "get down."

"Thank you, empress."

After the salute, the ladies sat back in their chairs and bowed their heads quietly, demure and elegant, in sharp contrast to the noise just now.

Yang Zhilan looks at Lou Suxin and nods her head gently, then smiles and says loudly: "today, I invite you ladies and madame to the palace for dinner, so as to select the women with both appearance and moral integrity to perform in the ceremony. This is a matter of physical aspect for the dome. I don't want to talk about it any more. You can play piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, singing and dancing, and those with high skills will win. "

"First of all, which young lady will come?" Yang Zhilan finished, smiled and glanced around. The women still kept their heads down and whispered, but no one came out.

Yang Zhilan smiled softly and said: "everyone is so humble, then the mourner will order one person to throw a brick and draw jade."

"I heard that the sisters of the Qing family are known as the outstanding women in the six countries. At the celebration three years ago, the bright moon took out a picture of Yongle mountains and rivers, which surprised four people. It is said that it was only the work of three young ladies. What do you think of the second thing you can see in the palace today, that is, it's better to let Qing Ling, the eldest young lady of the Qing family, do this elegant thing by casting bricks and attracting jade? " Then she looked at Zhuo Qing with great care.

The concubines who were sitting nearby also quickly agreed: "it's very good. My concubines often hear that the young lady's piano skill is very high, and she can't stop listening for three days. All the people who have heard about it are full of praise. Today, I finally have a chance to see it."

Zhuo Qing, who was still indifferent, closed her eyes and opened her eyes. She knew that the master of the body was a talented woman who was proficient in all aspects of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she was not! She... Only autopsy

Zhuoqing has been silent for a long time, and her eyebrows are slightly frowned. Yang Zhilan always smiles and cries out in a loud voice, "come, prepare the piano."

"Wait." Zhuo Qing suddenly got up and made a standard bow ceremony like a lady of the family. She whispered back, "thank you for your kindness, but I was hurt on my way to the dome. Many things in my memory are very vague. Those familiar tunes are not fully remembered now. I'm afraid they will spoil your mood today." Anyway, she lost her memory. It's not normal.

Qingfeng scolds herself secretly. When she first heard sister Yang Zhilan performing the piano, she was still a little proud. Her sister's piano skill was not unique, but absolutely unique. Now she remembered that her sister lost her memory.

What else did the Empress Dowager want to say? Suddenly, her sister pulled up a girl wearing a lake blue gold silk embroidered dress beside her and continued: "but I know that the piano art of Xi dance is not under me. I talked with Su Mufeng about the piano art of Xi dance a few days ago. He also praised it. It's better to let Xi dance throw a brick to attract jade. It won't let you down."

Looking at the gifted elder sister, Qingfeng is extremely distressed that she should rely on a little girl to solve the embarrassment at the moment. That elder sister of good piano skill has practiced for 15 years. Since she recorded, she has practiced piano almost every day. Don't you remember now? Tears gradually blurred the eyes, green maple looked at the people looking at the still calm sister, how helpless she should be?

Heartache, self reproach afflict the green maple, the back of that firm firm and straight is not conscious of micro shake up. Tuckahoe squatted down, picked up the hot tea on the side of the low table, and gently sent it to Qingfeng's tightly clasped hands. The slightly scalded tea made Qingfeng recover some spirits and smile gratefully to Poria cocos.

"Oh?" Yang Zhilan looked at Lou Suxin and said with a smile, "elder sister, I can't believe that the piano art of Xi dance has made such a breakthrough these years. In this case, let Xi dance play a piece."

Lou Suxin's haughty face finally eased a little. He chuckled at Lou Xiwu and said, "Xiwu, then you can play a piece."

"Yes." The expression on the woman's face is a little cramped. Now that it's over, there's no other way for Lou Xi dance except to be hard on the head.

Zhuoqing takes a deep breath of relief, just about to sit down. Yang Zhilan still refuses to let her go, and says with a soft smile: "but it's monotonous to listen to the music. Ling'er doesn't remember the tune and always remembers to write. The last Yongle landscape painting still exists in the imperial study. Today linger will make another one for them to see. "

It's true that Zhuo Qing is a little angry with her, because Yang Zhilan is trying to get on with her! When she got up again, Zhuo Qing's face was obviously gloomy: "I"

just after Zhuo Qing said a word, she was interrupted by a cold female voice: "back to the empress dowager, our sisters all like to draw together to entertain themselves. Today, I will let my concubine and sister draw a picture for you. I wonder if I can." It turns out that the Empress Dowager's purpose today is to make her sister lose face in front of all the people and be angry for her precious princess. Qingfeng snorts coldly. As long as she is here, no one can bully her sister!

Zhuo Qing looks up and talks about Qingfeng. She is also there. But a group of women across the street haven't even looked at her carefully. It's not surprising that she hasn't found out. But they are painting together? Is she hurting her or helping her?! Is it a painting to study ink on one side?

Yang Zhilan looked at Lou Suxin again and asked with a smile, "what do you think, sister?" It's just that she doesn't need to embarrass her any more, and the result will be the same in a while.

Zhuo Qing obviously had no luck in Lou Xi's dance. Lou Su Xin glanced sideways at her and said in a cold voice, "it's OK. I want to see what kind of talent the sisters of the Qing family are!" The woman who can let sunset go to the palace for her several times to see, she wants to see how special she is!

Pointing to the beautiful Jiao he in front of the pond, Yang Zhilan said with a smile: "sister, it's the season when the lotus is in full bloom. Why don't you let them paint and play the piano by the lotus pond? It's not a beautiful thing for Jiao Hua and her beauty to echo each other?"

"All right." Lou Suxin said indifferently, "come, prepare the painting set."

"Yes."

In a short time, several eunuchs with neat hands and feet have moved a large table to the lotus pond. Behind the table is a platform built on wooden boards. This platform is just above the lotus pond. It's beautiful to stand here and enjoy the flowers as if you were in the flowers.

It's a pity that Zhuo Qing is not in the mood to enjoy the flowers. Facing the confident green maple around her, she says: "I really can't draw!"

Qingfeng is a little sad, but it's just a flower. She is so anxious about her sister. She holds Zhuoqing's hand lightly. Qingfeng smiles confidently and says, "it doesn't matter. I'll adjust the color later. Just draw a few circles under the paper with a pen."

"Draw a circle?" Zhuo Qing was stunned and asked quickly, "how big is the painting? How many? Would you like a circle or an ellipse? Where is the specific location? " If it's just a circle, she can do it, but please be specific! She should be doing a geometry problem.

"As you like," replied Qingfeng

"Ah?!" Zhuo Qingmeng, how to draw?

She was still melancholy. The ink on the table had been ground and the paper had been laid. The eunuch stepped back and said respectfully, "the painting set is ready. Two masters, please."

Zhuo Qing stood beside Qingfeng, only to see her skillfully pour a small half of the ink into the nearby white porcelain plate, and carefully transfer the water into it. After a while, Qingfeng said, "let's start."

A large piece of rice paper is spread out in front of her eyes. Zhuo Qingzhen has some feelings of crying and laughing. Where do you start?!

Come on, Qingfeng doesn't worry about anything. She worries about something. She takes a deep breath. Zhuo Qing draws a circle bigger than her fist under the white paper. Qingfeng's ink is a little light, leaving a light impression on the white paper. Zhuo Qing looks at Qingfeng, and her expression is still as usual. She is preparing red cinnabar, which is supposed to be used for lotus painting.

Since she has no opinion, Zhuo Qing doesn't care. She bravely spends more than ten circles on the paper, big and small. After drawing, Zhuo Qing doesn't know how to write. She makes a mess of the white paper

at this time, Qingfeng seems to be ready. She looks down at the circles her sister drew. She doesn't dare to show her face. She can only sigh in her heart Rest, elder sister is really lost in memory. The tacit understanding of painting before is now gone.

Picking up a thin brush, green maple quickly sketched a few strokes on those messy circles, and a smart lotus leaf appeared. Her action is very fast, a few random strokes, the original disorderly composition immediately becomes a lotus pond lifelike, it's just too powerful! Just when Zhuoqing marveled, a clear and delicate piano sound like a jade bead falling on a plate sounded melodiously. Zhuo Qing raised her head, not far ahead. Lou Xi sat in front of the Guqin with a graceful dance. Her slender ten fingers crossed the strings smoothly, and her light melody echoed in the imperial garden. The girl's piano skill was really good.

"All right."

Zhuo Qing is still enjoying the piano sound of Lou Xi dance, and the cool voice of Qingfeng is low.

All right? So fast? It's almost as long as she's drawing a circle!

Once again, Zhuo Qing was completely stunned by the painting in front of her eyes -

the painting in front of her was a pair of elegant water and ink paintings, which expressed lotus leaves and lake water incisively and vividly only in different shades of black. The setting off of cinnabar and white leaves, the new lotus in its first bloom, and the color of ink, are pink and fresh. The most amazing thing is that there are a lot of small drops of water on the lotus leaves and lotus petals. The whole painting seems to be permeated with a light vapor, misty and hazy covered with the ink leaves and lotus, just like the new lotus blooming after the rain!

In the upper left corner of the painting, there are also several small words "cover condensation and dew, who is envious in the world", which are beautiful and fluent.

How could it be! For such a short time, Zhuo Qing couldn't believe that this was the rice paper she had just tortured!

She has seen what a real talented woman is.

Qingfeng slowly put down his pen, pulled Zhuoqing back a step, let the eunuchs standing on the side with their heads down quietly carry the wooden table, and walked to the Empress Dowager in front.

Just after the painting, the paper was too soft to be picked up. Lou Suxin and Yang Zhilan both stood up to walk to the long table. At a glance, both of them were bright at the moment. Lou Suxin even boasted: "it's true that it's worthy of reputation!"

Such works, even those who specialize in painting, can not be drawn without thirty or fifty years of skill.

Yang Zhilan also nodded and said with a smile, "come and tell us the meaning of your poem."

"Yes." Green maple walked slowly, Zhuo Qing was standing on the wooden platform breathing fresh air, if she could, she really wanted to leave early.

Looking at the green maple coming, Yang Zhilan did not look for any trace and glanced beside her, standing behind her all the time
