Chapter 331 A Beautiful Song
So before His Majesty got angry, he stood up and spoke.
"Your Majesty, I am afraid that I might be disrespectful and lose face for Your Majesty. I have good intentions, and I hope Your Majesty will not blame me."
Ji Yao, who was just about to get angry, was stopped by Lin Zian's words.
Lin Zi'an walked out of his seat and raised his head, his expression showing confidence, and bowed with a smile.
"Since Your Majesty has spoken, I will present my humble service."
"An'er!"
Minister Lin, who was sitting in his seat, had a dark face and stared at Lin Zian with disapproval in his eyes.
However, Lin Zi'an, who was proud by nature, asked someone to bring the pipa in order not to lose face for his family and to avoid angering His Majesty.
Ji Yao saw that Lin Zian was so tactful and didn't want to show her dissatisfaction.
The sons of the ministers were happy to watch the fun when they saw someone taking the lead.
They would be delighted if they were favored by the barbarian princess.
In this way, they don't have to worry about being chosen to marry.
There was a chair in the middle of the banquet. Lin Zian bowed to His Majesty while holding the pipa, and then sat on the chair.
After adjusting the pitch, the white fingers plucked the strings lightly, and a mournful sound of the piano rang out.
As the sound of the piano began, Lin Zian opened his red lips slightly:
There are beautiful women in the north
peerless and independent
A glance at the city
Looking Back at the Country
I don't know
The Fall of a Country and a City
It's hard to find a beautiful woman again
……
I have to say that Lin Zian has a great voice. He amazes everyone as soon as he opens his mouth.
Don't be fooled by her bright appearance, her singing voice is unique, soft and sad.
As the faint sound lingered, people who listened to it couldn't help but be fascinated.
Of course, this does not include some people.
Especially Di Ran, she was not interested in these things and was only keen on feeding her own husband.
As for the handsome man playing the pipa?
He said that it would be better to watch Axie, and if he wanted to watch someone, he would watch his own Axie bullet.
The song is over.
Before everyone could come to their senses, they heard applause.
"Pa pa~" Ji Yao clapped her hands, her face was very pleased, she stared at Minister Lin and praised him with a smile.
"Lord Lin, your son is worthy of the title of a talented scholar. He plays the pipa very well!"
“I wonder what this piece of music is called?”
This question was naturally directed at Lin Zian.
Lin Zian stood up from the chair holding the pipa, bowed to Ji Yao, and replied.
"Your Majesty, this piece of music is called Beauty."
"beautiful woman?"
Ji Yao smiled happily: "Great! This song is very suitable for the name of the beauty."
As he spoke, he turned his eyes slightly and looked at Princess Ashina below and asked.
"I wonder what Princess Ashina thinks?"
When asked, Princess Ashina came back to her senses.
"Oh, yes, good."
His eyes fell on Lin Zian and he frowned slightly. What a pity.
She's pretty, but she looks a bit fragile and unpleasant. Don't be scared to tears by her yelling at you. People like her are the most annoying.
It’s no wonder Ashina misunderstood, as Lin Zian was usually an arrogant and domineering person.
But today's banquet is important, and I met the person I like, so how can I not control my temper?
He knew that women always liked gentle men, so he naturally had to please them and pretend to be weak.
When Ji Yao heard Ashina's polite praise, she thought that she had a good impression of Lin Zian.
I thought if I came a few more, maybe the other party would like to marry one of them.
Ji Yao felt that she had made the right move by asking the ministers to bring their families to the banquet.
So, he struck while the iron was hot and said to the other young men of the court with a smile.
"Which of your beloved sons is willing to give it a try?"
"Perform well, and I will reward you handsomely."
As soon as these words were spoken, several officials who wanted to take the opportunity to sacrifice their sons for fame and fortune quickly pushed their sons out.
Many of these young men did it for their families, while others did it to climb up the social ladder.
After all, Ashina Kunchu is also the daughter of the eldest princess of the Tibetan Rong. If she could be favored by her and marry her as a princess, she would definitely become a princess.
At the very least, if I am not chosen, I can still show up in front of His Majesty and leave a good impression if I perform well. Maybe other nobles will even take a liking to me.
