Chapter 81: Famous piano coke tail

“Meet your majesty.”

“Meet the Empress Empress.”

“Meet your Royal Highness the princess.”

The crowd shouted loudly and paid homage.

Empress Changsun slowly walked into the hall with Tang Wang’s smiling face.

Tang Wang Longyan joyfully, in a very good mood, said.

“Today is Princess Fangchen. It’s a family banquet, so you don’t have to be formal, just keep your body flat.”

After all, the first seat in the hall was seated, and Princess Changle and Empress Changsun sat next to King Tang.

The ministers thanked them for taking their seats.

Princess Fangchen, of course, is indispensable for her ministers to present gifts to celebrate her birthday.

“The King of Huai’an presents a pair of jade Ruyi Scepter…”

“Xu Guogong presented a piece of golden silk fox fur.”

“Princess Nanyang presented a five-foot coral tree…”

As the eunuchs read loudly, the princes and ministers presented birthday gifts one after another according to their status and position.

Which of these relatives and relatives of the emperor is not the lord of wealth, this time the princess Fangchen of Changle, who is also a daughter of gold, naturally took out his best objects and went to set up a princess to rejoice. A half-time official, and his Majesty can take care of it, which is naturally excellent.

In a short while, a gift table in front was piled up like a mountain, with a dazzling array of rare and exotic treasures.

King Tang looked at the priceless treasures that the ministers in front of him gave to own daughter, and he was naturally happy.

The eldest-grand queen took her daughter’s hand instead of pointing to the present, and asked her if she had something she liked.

For Princess Changle, Fangchen had to spend it once a year. These rare and exotic treasures had been seen countless times a long time ago, and I didn’t think it was too strange. Her face was calm and there was no trace of joy.

Zhao Li slowly walked into the hall, half-kneeled on the ground, and slowly said with his hands holding up a black baggage.

“Weichen Zhao Li, entrusted by Dage Yin Sa, present a Jiaoweiqin.”

As soon as the voice fell, a ripple appeared on Princess Changle’s calm face, and a touch of joy flashed in her eyes.

“Hurry up and show me.”

The eunuch in the hall walked to Zhao Li and gently unfolded the package. A simple and delicate piano gradually revealed its true appearance. The eunuch carefully lifted the piano and handed it to Princess Changle.

Princess Changle is in the palace, how can she not understand the truth of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, especially since this music and his party are one of the few famous music circles in the palace.

Anyone who understands temperament naturally also studies this instrument.

Holding on to the string and touching the pristine body, Princess Changle flashed a touch of excitement in her eyes, and looked up at Zhao Lidao in the hall.

“Zhao Li, I don’t think the strings of this piano look like imitations. Could it be that this Jiaowei piano is genuine?”

A trace of complacency swept from the corner of Zhao Li’s mouth, and he immediately stood up and said loudly.

“His Royal Highness has good eyesight. This is exactly what Cai Yong made in the Eastern Han Dynasty. My Highness Dage Yin Sa even likes piano music, and I have to look for it during my leisure time. After a year of searching, I finally found this Jiaowei Qin.”

“Only because of something in the house, Dage Yin Sa can’t come to celebrate his birthday. He especially exhorts him to bring the piano to his Highness, and wish his highness to stay young forever and keep his face unchanged.”

These exclamations exclaimed that they were prepared in advance, and pushed all the credit to Yin Sa. To put it bluntly, I wanted to use the piano to win Princess Changle’s favor for Yin Sa.

In the Great Hall, this loud voice floated in everyone’s ears.

The princes and nobles present were also well-versed in musical instruments. When they knew the origin of the piano, they couldn’t help but secretly marvel. But there are still many people who are at a loss, wondering what is so peculiar about this piano.

Empress Changsun is a well-known lady, and her daughter’s piano art was taught by her, and she explained the origin of the Jiaoweiqin.

“This Cai Yong is a master of music. He is proficient in piano art. He once snatched a piece of Parasol Tree from the fire that had not been burned and had an abnormal tone. Then he turned the wood into a lyre. The sound quality is ethereal, like the fragrance of orchids. It’s like Tianlai Xianle. Because there are scorch marks at the end of the piano.”

“As soon as this piano was born, there were many imitations, but in terms of tone and workmanship, it was difficult to reach the level of authenticity. Wars in the Eastern Han Dynasty continued, and this piano also disappeared in the continuous wars. Unexpectedly, it was found by you. Not easy!”

Princess Changle next to Jiaoweiqin couldn’t put it down, her eyes had never left since she saw Qin. Said without looking up.

“Zhao Li, this gift from Dage is ingenious. I really like it. Yin Sa has a heart.”

Wang Wang looked at the princess Changle stroking the piano body with affection, and said happily.

“This piano can be regarded as the king of the piano, and the Yin family has this mindset, very good!”

Even the king of Tang was full of praise, Zhao Li felt extremely honored, and couldn’t hide the joy of his face.

“If you can please your Highness, everything the Yin family has done is worth it.”

Yin Kaishan, who was sitting on the side of the Great Hall, saw Wang Wang’s family smiling brightly, and he was even more proud, stroking his beard and smiling.

All the gifts were over, and there was only one person in the hall who did not offer gifts, and that was Tang Hao.

Li Wanqing suddenly woke up and tugged at the corner of Tang Hao’s clothes and said softly.

“You…you are empty-handed? But forgot to bring this birthday gift?”

Tang Hao had expected that Princess Changle had a lot of knowledge and had no interest in this rare and exotic treasure. Even if he emptied Li Mansion, he might not be able to make the princess smile, so he didn’t prepare these vulgar objects.

Seeing Tang Hao not answering, Li Wanqing suddenly became embarrassed and said.

“Princess Fangchen, this is a big deal. There are so many princes and nobles in the hall now. If you let them know that we came empty-handed, wouldn’t it be a laughingstock?”
