Banquet? Then it would probably be another round of flowers, a toast, and an extraordinary bustle. It was just that he might not be able to withstand the hidden competition.
However, Su Lingruo subconsciously looked around the deserted Cold Palace and the inedible food…
"Xuecheng, pack up. We're going to get some food.”
"Miss, are you going to attend the banquet?”Xue Cheng was a little confused. The young lady never liked to participate in these things. Was she trying to regain her favor?
Thinking of this, Xue Cheng immediately turned over the cabinets and carefully took out Su Lingruo's red embroidered double-silk dress.
"Miss, Miss, you'll definitely be able to crush everyone in this outfit!”Xue Cheng couldn't help but feel excited." Fortunately, when I moved to the Cold Palace, I brought the brocade multi-compartment dressing box that you used to store your jewelry."”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xue Cheng impatiently took out the complicated, gorgeous, and exquisite Golden Silk Ruby Step.
Su Lingruo looked up and saw Xue Cheng's aggressive attitude. She couldn't help but yawn.
"I'm just a concubine who was banished to the cold palace and demoted. Naturally, she was on par with those favored concubines who were doted on by thousands of people. Moreover, the reason I brought you there was just to be a full ghost. It was better than eating those messy meals in the Cold Palace.”
After saying that, Su Lingruo turned her beautiful eyes slightly and her gaze fell on the yellow dress in the innermost part of the wardrobe. She raised her jade-like hand and said,"That one. Also, you don't have to bring such expensive jewelry. If someone finds a reason to leave, your miss will suffer a huge loss. Sigh, that plum blossom glass hairpin was just right.”
"Miss, this is a rare opportunity. You must take this opportunity to reconcile with the emperor. You can't always stay in the Cold Palace.”As Xue Cheng spoke, she unconsciously picked up the luxurious dress in her hand and compared it to Su Lingruo."This one looks much better."
"Why should I cultivate with him? It's best if he can pretend that I don't exist.”She still wanted to save up enough money to escape from the palace, and she couldn't wait for Nangong Mingye to treat her like air.
Su Lingruo looked out the window and estimated the time. She didn't want to continue arguing with Xue Cheng about these meaningless things. She stretched out her hands and said,"Alright, let's change. Otherwise, he would be late. Also, just help me comb my hair into a simple bun.”
"Miss…" Xue Cheng was unwilling and still wanted to persuade him.
"Be good."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade Su Lingruo, Xue Cheng folded the dress and put it in the wardrobe. Then she turned around and helped Su Lingruo change and wash up.
Outside the main hall.
"Miss, it's really lively inside. It's been a long time since I've seen such a lively place.”Xue Cheng looked at the inner hall from afar, her delicate eyes filled with envy.
"Yes, I am. It is indeed lively." Su Lingruo nodded. Her eyes turned slightly, and a few traces of slyness flashed through her eyes. She whispered something into Xue Cheng's ear.
Su Lingruo restrained her spirit and kept recalling the "pretentious" appearance of those concubines in the TV series.
Then, he walked into the hall and bowed respectfully.
Compared to the gorgeous makeup and gorgeous clothes in the palace hall, Su Lingruo's elegant and simple clothes with a slight makeup made her look even more elegant and refined.
Nangong Mingye couldn't help but look at her a few more times. He thought to himself, If she could be obedient and follow Mingsheng Country wholeheartedly, then it wouldn't be a pity for her to be so beautiful.
After Su Lingruo sat down, she acted as if no one was around. She leisurely picked up her chopsticks and began to eat the exquisite food in front of her.
For a moment, it caused the surrounding concubines to start discussing softly.
Seeing this, Nangong Mingye subconsciously shifted his gaze to the center of the main hall and said in a low voice,""Men, come and dance to liven things up."
As soon as he finished speaking, the dancers who had been waiting outside the hall for a long time entered one after another.
The exotic dancers with smooth muscles and charming looks walked slowly, dancing in the wind and showing off their elegance. Her every frown and smile were like Baosi's, her every move was full of charm.
"Grand Preceptor, these women are all young and beautiful.”Nangong Mingye smiled and raised his cup to look at Grand Preceptor Fu.
"This old man is not as strong as the Emperor, who sings with women every night. If the Emperor likes it, you can take it into Chuxiu Palace.”
"Grand Preceptor is old but strong, why can't he? However, there really is something in this palace that suits my taste.”After saying that, Nangong Mingye looked anxious. He pointed his finger and took the three most outstanding dancers into the palace.
She heard that Yuehai Kingdom's dance music was charming and pleasant. Su Zhaoyi was the number one beauty, so she must be proficient in folk arts. Why don't you play it casually and let us open our eyes?
As Nangong Mingye's casual suggestion fell, the gazes of the people in the hall involuntarily fell on Su Lingruo, who was hiding behind and feasting.
Su Lingruo couldn't help but stop her movements and held her forehead,"Your Majesty, I'm not feeling well today."
She really knew nothing about the four arts.
"Su Zhaoyi, don't keep a low profile.”Nangong Mingye didn't care. He didn't even bother to say a word and directly gave the order.
Seeing this, Su Lingruo couldn't help but curse Nangong Mingye in her heart. Then, she looked at the Phoenix Tail Zither and was at a loss.
Just as Su Ling was at a loss for what to do, she unintentionally caught a glimpse of the proud expression of Imperial Consort Ji, who was in a high position.
Su Ling suddenly smiled and bowed to Nangong Mingye."Emperor, ChenQie has a presumptuous request. Chenqie is willing to offer up the world famous "Yao Shou Dance", but I would like to ask elder sister Ji to accompany Chenqie in order to understand its profundity.”
The " Yao Shouwu " that Su Lingruo mentioned was the national dance of Yuehai Kingdom. It was said that during a major battle, this " Yao Shouwu " had raised the morale of the people and turned Yuehai Kingdom's defeat into victory.
Nangong Mingye lowered his eyes and saw the interested expressions of all the officials.
"Since that's the case, then Noble Consort Ji, please play a song.”
When Imperial Consort Ji heard this, her expression could not help changing drastically. That insignificant Zhaoyi actually wants me to play for her like the musicians in the palace. Is she even worthy?!
However, the emperor's will could not be disobeyed. Moreover, under the watchful eyes of everyone, how could she dare to say "no"?
Thus, Noble Consort Ji suppressed the monstrous anger in her heart and revealed a stiff smile. She took light steps and slowly walked to the front of the zither.
"If the emperor wants to hear it, ChenQie will naturally do her best.”
Su Ling had never thought that someone as arrogant as Noble Consort Ji would compromise so easily. She couldn't help but cry out in her heart. She didn't know how to dance either.
Forget it, forget it. Anyway, these ancient people had not seen the world. Fortunately, as a criminal police officer, his skills were not bad.
The combination of ancient and modern should be able to fool him, right?
As expected by Su Lingruo, this was the first time that everyone present had seen such a novel dance. Even Su Lingruo's delicate and moving beauty could not help but be stunned.
" Clang…" Suddenly, an ear-piercing sound rang out, instantly startling everyone.
Everyone came back to their senses one after another. They saw that Imperial Consort Ji, who was playing the zither, had a pale face and her slender fingers were faintly glowing with blood.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:09120183:55AM
