Chapter 490 Losing control
Princess Yuanxia spoke bluntly, and Shen Jingyu was in a dilemma.
Moreover, the Queen Mother also gave her the zither. If she retreated without a fight, even if she did not lose all face, she would still upset the royal family.
Since that’s the case, we might as well give it a try.
Thinking of this, Shen Jingyu said, "In that case, I will respectfully obey your orders. Please give me your instructions, Princess."
At this moment, the king of beasts, who was so powerful and majestic just now, was lying on the ground, looking very tired.
If you look closely, you can see that his front paws are constantly digging the ground and hot air is coming out of his nostrils.
Shen Shuyi stepped back slightly, pulled out a tiny flower hairpin from his head, handed it to Qin Xin who was a little further away, and whispered: "Give the hairpin to my grandfather, and tell him that if the tiger goes crazy and makes trouble, think of a way to shoot the hairpin into the tiger while it's in chaos."
"Yes."
After Qin Xin responded, Shen Shuyi handed her another incense pill: "Put this incense pill on Princess Yuan Xia."
Qin Xin paused. This was actually quite difficult under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Shen Shuyi was not in a hurry and looked at her calmly: "Can you do it?"
Qin Xin looked at the position and thought for a moment: "Yes, I will pretend to be a palace maid and serve tea."
Hearing this, Shen Shuyi said nothing more, but returned to the Queen Mother's side and looked at Aunt Chenxiang beside her: "I wonder if Aunt Chenxiang can also find a zither for me."
Chenxiang was stunned for a moment. Obviously, in her opinion, Shen Shuyi was not the kind of person who liked to be in the spotlight at this time.
But when he met those smiling eyes, Chenxiang glanced at the Queen Mother.
Seeing that the empress dowager did not say anything, she turned around and asked the palace maid to borrow a zither and placed it behind Shen Shuyi.
After a moment, Shen Jingyu calmed down and played a long and clear piano piece.
Her throat tightened and she stared at the tiger in the cage, hoping for a miracle to happen.
Unfortunately, no.
No matter how hard she bounced, the tiger in the cage no longer had the excitement and vigor it had before. It remained limp on the ground, occasionally digging the ground with its front paws.
Shen Jingyu's heart sank, knowing that she would definitely lose if she continued like this.
But she really didn't have the ability to drive a tiger, and she didn't know how Princess Yuan Xia did it.
She could only try her best to play the song well, even if she lost, she had to lose beautifully.
But Shen Jingyu didn't know that her soft and joyful music made the tiger in the cage even more irritated.
At this moment, the tiger that had been lying on the ground slowly stood up and walked towards the cage unsteadily.
When passing by the flower ball, the tiger stepped on it with one hand, crushing the flower ball that it had just liked into pieces.
Everyone was a little confused about the situation for a moment, and some people were excited and couldn't see the situation clearly.
"It's moving! Miss Shen also made the tiger move!"
"Indeed, although I am not as powerful as Princess Yuan Xia, it is not easy to make this tiger feel something."
"You guys are probably brainless, aren't you? Isn't it normal for the tiger to move around after lying down for a long time? Why do you seem to be saying that all of this is Shen Jingyu's work?"
"..."
Everyone was talking at once, and at this moment, there was a sudden roar of a tiger.
The tiger's head was resting on the bars of the cage, facing Shen Jingyu, with its bloody mouth wide open.
"Ow!!!"
Shen Jingyu was only two or three meters away from the cage, immersed in the music of the piano, when she suddenly heard the tiger roar.
Her hands trembled uncontrollably for a moment, and she looked up subconsciously, only to be met with that bloody mouth!
Her throat tightened and she was frightened.
Shen Jingyu quickly retracted her gaze and forced herself not to look.
But the tiger was like crazy, ramming the cage in front of her frantically.
For a moment, the loud "clang clang" sound, accompanied by the roar of the tiger, mixed with the beautiful piano music.
The tiger seemed to be getting more and more manic. Regardless of the pain, it madly banged its head against the railing.
Shen Jingyu tried to remain calm, but her hands were shaking uncontrollably. It was obvious that she was affected.
Everyone in the hall frowned and discussed in low voices.
The tiger kept roaring, and when it saw that it couldn't break open the railing on one side, it immediately crashed into the other side, making a loud "clang clang" sound.
When that side didn't work, he tried hitting the other side.
Coincidentally, this side is the one facing Emperor Qianwu and the Empress Dowager.
After a series of crazy and desperate collisions, suddenly, there was a crisp sound and a hole was knocked out of the railing.
As if he had been suppressed for a long time, he squeezed out through the hole.
The sharp corners of the railings scratched several bloody marks on his fur, but he seemed to feel nothing at all. After escaping from the cage, he rushed straight towards Xiao Yuncheng who was nearest to him.
"what--!!!"
When everyone reacted, many of them screamed.
"Help!"
"Escort! Escort!!!"
The tiger stepped on the table, opened its bloody mouth, and knocked over a number of tables in succession, then bit Xiao Yuncheng directly.
Fortunately, Xiao Yuncheng had been practicing martial arts since he was a child and had very quick reactions. He slammed the table with one hand and jumped into the air.
The tiger was obviously attacking indiscriminately, and immediately changed direction and pounced on the Sixth Prince's wife.
The Sixth Prince's wife's pupils shrank slightly, her vision went dark, and she fainted.
Fortunately, the deputy commander of the imperial guards at the side took action and a chopstick flew out and pierced directly into the tiger.
The tiger felt pain and blood flowed from one spot on his body. He immediately went mad and turned around and pounced towards the deputy commander of the imperial guards.
The deputy commander of the imperial guards was unable to dodge and a piece of his flesh was torn off.
In an instant, several imperial guards and several generals in the court hurriedly surrounded him.
Some people drew their swords, others drew their bows and arrows. In the chaos, two people lost their arms, and others had pieces of flesh torn off.
"Evil creature! How dare you cause chaos in the palace!"
For a moment, the hall was in a panic and filled with the smell of blood. Many women and court officials turned pale with fear and fled to the side.
In a moment, the mad tiger leaped up, stepped on the table, pounced on someone's shoulder, and ran straight towards the pillar.
Arrows rained down and the hall was in chaos. Mr. Zhao found the right moment and threw out the hairpin that Shen Shuyi had handed to him.
Although he is old, he is still strong and has considerable martial arts skills.
In addition, the distance is not too far, so Shen Shuyi's request is not difficult.
At this moment, Princess Yuanxia, with a smile on her face, was standing not far away watching the show, hoping that this beast could be a little more sensible.
Even if we can't do anything to Emperor Qianwu, at least we have to kill the arrogance of these people in Daqian!
Just then, there was a 'bang' sound.
The palace maid who was holding a tray in one hand seemed to be frightened. She staggered back a few steps and bumped into her when she turned around.
Qin Xin immediately knelt on the ground: "Princess, please forgive me, Princess, please forgive me!"
Princess Yuanxia glanced at her coldly and was about to say something, but at that moment the tiger pounced onto the jade steps and ran straight towards Emperor Qianwu and the Queen Mother.
Her pupils lit up slightly, and she no longer cared about such trivial matters, staring at the platform.
Qin Xin took the opportunity to escape, and from beginning to end, she never even let Princess Yuan Xia see her appearance clearly.
