    As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, Concubine Zhen on the side suddenly said: "I want to go too!!!" Then she took King Jing's arm and shook it, saying: "Your Majesty, please let me go with the Queen.  ? It¡¯s so boring to stay in the palace every day!¡± The emperor couldn¡¯t resist her, so he only agreed: ¡°Okay! Okay! I agree, you go with the Queen and Nuer in the evening.¡± Then he turned to me and said: ¡°Deng  "Long, you have to protect the two empresses and the princess tonight. If anything goes wrong, I want you to look good!" "I obey the order!" I thanked you quickly.  I very much welcome the Queen and Zhou Nu to go, but I am very reluctant to see Concubine Zhen go. Concubine Zhen has always disliked me, and who knows if she will cause me any trouble at night.  But the emperor agreed, and I could only accept the offer honestly, without any room for bargaining.  In the time that followed, I chatted with the Queen Mother and others. I had to deal with the Queen's inquisitive questions like asking her son-in-law, and Concubine Zhen's intentional and unintentional clich¨¦s. Moreover, I couldn't afford to offend these two.  Lord, I couldn't help but answer seriously, and I also had to be careful not to reveal any secrets related to the Chamber of Commerce during the conversation. After a while, I had only one feeling, and that was tiredness!  Fortunately, it was not long before night, and I saw that it was almost time, so I suggested that we could go out.  The Queen and Concubine Zhen each agreed and went back to their respective palaces and changed into ordinary clothes before walking out of the palace with me.  There were a lot of people tonight, including just ladies, so I set my seat at Xiangtianxia.  After all, I was considered one of the owners of this chamber of commerce. I couldn't lose this face, so I booked the largest room on the fourth floor of Xiangtianxia.  After leaving the palace with the queen and others, we went straight to Xiangtianxia, ??having made an appointment with Feixue and others beforehand.  So there is no need to send someone to notify him this time, just wait at Xiangtianxia when he arrives.  I finally got relief on the way, because the queen and others were making cars, and of course I couldn't go with them, so I found a horse in the palace to travel instead, which also made my ears quieter for a while.  When they arrived at Xiangtianxia, ??they saw Feixue and others waiting at the door.  When they saw me, they immediately came up to me, their faces full of joy.  At this time, Murong Sanniang smiled and said: "I said that your husband-in-law can't be lost, but you are still worried. Isn't this coming?" The feeling was that the three girls saw that I never came back, and they felt a little anxious. Murong Sanniang looked at it  joke.  I laughed and said, "How can I bear to leave behind my three charming wives?" The three girls blushed, and Feixue said, "You are so talkative!!" I smiled again, and then said, "Follow me quickly.  I'll go greet the distinguished guests!" After saying that, he led the three girls to the carriage where the queen was riding.  The queen got off the carriage with Zhou Nu's help.  Concubine Zhen had already walked over at this time.  "I haven't paid my respects to the Queen and Concubine Zhen yet." I said in a low voice.  The three girls had never seen the Queen and Concubine Zhen, and were looking at the woman in front of them curiously.  After hearing what I said, she was so shocked that she knelt down. The queen smiled slightly and said, "This is not in the palace. Where are there so many rules? There is no need to be polite." Then she looked at the three women carefully, and then praised her.  : "It's exactly what Nu'er said. The three ladies are all beautiful and charming in their own way!" "Thank you, Queen!" the three ladies said in unison.  Then he bowed.  But Concubine Zhen's face was not very good-looking at this time. Concubine Zhen was originally considered stunning, and she was quite confident in her own beauty. She didn't expect that in addition to one princess, there would suddenly be five more princesses with absolutely no appearance or figure.  Not inferior to her.  There were even some stunning beauties who surpassed her, so naturally she felt uncomfortable.  After paying homage to the Queen, I pointed at Concubine Zhen and said, "This is Concubine Zhen." The three girls were blessed and said, "Greetings to Concubine Zhen." Just now the Queen asked the three girls not to kneel down, but of course it was not necessary for Concubine Zhen.  OK.  Although she was a little unhappy in her heart, there was nothing she could do about it.  Later, I briefly introduced Murong Sanniang, Liu Ruyan and others. After a few polite words to each other, I led everyone up to the fourth floor.  I walked in the front, followed by the Queen, Feixue and others, followed by the third son and Gongsun and his son.  Behind them are Yu Yuanzhao, Master Zhao and others.  In the introduction just now, Gongsun Zhi already knew that the three people in front of him were the current queen, one was the current emperor's favorite concubine, and the other was the current eighth princess. He couldn't help but be shocked. It turned out that after hearing Gongsun Xiwu  He said that Deng Long had a very good relationship with the Eighth Princess, but he did not expect that he had a good relationship with the Queen. Looking at the young man walking in the front who was introducing something to the Queen, Gongsun Zhi felt that his blood was boiling, and then he got off  A decision was made to make a bet with the Gongsun family.  I had no idea that Gongsun Zhi had made such a decision because of the appearance of the Queen and others. I am now telling the Queen some things about Shanling, and the Queen is also very interested and listens with great interest.  After arriving on the fourth floor, we were divided into three tables under the arrangement of the third child. The queen and other ladies were at one table, I, Gongsun, his son and others were at the second table, and the rest were at the third table.  Fortunately, this room is relatively spacious. Although it is divided into three tables, it does not feel crowded. Moreover, this is the highest floor. The cool breeze blows into the room through the window, which also takes away some of the heat and makes it a little cooler.  The fourth floor is worthy of being the highest-end floor in the entire world. The floor is covered with thick cashmere carpets and the walls are covered with?The decorative paintings are also by famous artists, the tables and chairs inside are all made of fine mahogany, and even the furnishings inside are all of high quality.  Moreover, on this floor, there are dedicated maids who are responsible for pouring wine and food. Although the maids who serve are not as stunning as Feixue and others, they are somewhat pretty.  Not long after everyone sat down, the food and wine were served. On the fourth floor, even the quality of the food and wine was a level higher than that on the floors below. Even the queen was full of praise after eating it.  Halfway through the meal, Zhou Nu accidentally mentioned that Yingying and Liu Ruyan were two sisters, and their piano skills and music were unparalleled in the world. The queen immediately became interested and wanted to listen to a piece of music.  Because the person who spoke was the queen and was very polite, Yingying naturally did not refuse, so she asked someone to fetch the piano and played a song in front of everyone, and this song was the "Butterfly Lovers" that I taught her.  After a year of not seeing each other, Yingying's piano skills have become more and more proficient, and she has reached the point of proficiency. A song "Butterfly Lovers" under her delicate fingers has made everyone's minds integrated into the music.  In addition, Yingying's white clothes fluttered like a fairy, which attracted everyone's attention.  However, Yingying, who had only played this song a year ago, was in a different mood now. A year ago, his lover who he had loved for many years passed away. He was heartbroken, so he integrated all of himself when playing the song.  emotion.  And this time, I was finally with the one I loved, not to mention the sweetness in my heart. Although this song had some sad elements, when it was played, the sadness became lighter and sweeter.  Although it is somewhat different from the real "Butterfly Lovers", but let me ask, who has heard of the real "Butterfly Lovers"?  At the end of the song, everyone was still immersed in the music.  After a long time, the queen took a deep breath and said: "It's such a good song. I wish I could hear it more often in the future." "Thank you, queen!" Yingying stood up and returned the greeting: "If the queen is willing to listen, you can listen at any time.  Teleport the shadow into the palace." "This is a good idea." Zhou Nu on the side said quickly, "Then the queen mother will not feel bored alone in the future." The queen thought for a while and said: "This is a good idea, I will call you tomorrow  Eunuch Qi will give you the badge to enter and exit the palace, so that you and your sisters can enter the palace, and I will not feel bored." Feixue and others were overjoyed when they heard this, and quickly said: "Thank you, Queen Empress.  ." And I am also very happy in my heart. Feixue and the others have the badge to enter the palace, so if we have anything to say, we can convey it through them, so that I don't have to go to the palace often to avoid being suspected.  Just when we were happy, the shopkeeper of Chuxiangtianxia was not happy. Just now, the sound of the piano came from the largest room on the fourth floor. I don¡¯t know how it was heard by those gentlemen. Now he is calling Xiao  Er asked him to come up.  Those gentlemen couldn't afford to offend themselves. He sighed helplessly in his heart, bravely walked up, and pushed open another room on the fourth floor. With a smile on his face, he clasped his fists and said: "  I don¡¯t know if Third Master has anything I can do for you.¡± Before the man called Third Master could speak, the one next to him said, ¡°My Third Brother wants to ask you who played the piano just now. Call her.  The third master will be rewarded heavily!" "This?" A look of confusion appeared on the shopkeeper's face. He knew where the sound of the piano came from, but he couldn't afford to offend that master either.  "What?" The face of the person who just spoke darkened, and he said slightly angrily: "You don't know, so you won't go? Be careful, I will destroy your world!" When the shopkeeper heard this, his face was full of sadness, and he said with a cry:  "Fourth Master, it's not that I don't know, but I can't afford to offend you either. If I go, my life will probably be in danger!" "Oh?" The one named Third Master  Immediately, he became interested and said: "There are not many people in the capital who dare to demolish your store. The fact that this person dares to demolish it shows that he is very powerful. Tell me, who is this person? My third master also wants to see you."  Seeing that the man named Third Master had spoken, the shopkeeper couldn't hide it and said: "The young man playing the piano is probably a family member of Zhongwu General Deng Long. He was also entertaining guests on the fourth floor today. The young man just saw one of his  I went to get the piano." "Deng Long?" The third master smiled contemptuously and said, "Isn't he just a small third-rank official? What's so great about it? I heard that the two thousand people under him were all bandits and robbers in the past.  , they are just some rabble!" The other people immediately started laughing too, except for one person who didn't laugh. The man gently picked up the wine glass, covered his face with his hands, and then smiled softly: "A rabble? Can you handle it for two days?  He just dragged those so-called rabble to help the people harvest crops without anyone escaping. How can we underestimate a general who has such courage?"
