Nalan Youyou did not know about this. She only knew that the surrounding air was mixed with countless complicated gazes, including surprise, envy, and countless surprises.
What was going on? Nalan Youyou was a little confused. Wasn't it just borrowing a flute? Was it that exaggerated? Nalan Youyou looked at Beiming Gu hesitantly, not knowing if she should accept it.
Beiming Gu seemed to have noticed Nalan Youyou's hesitation." Since Eldest Miss is unwilling to accept it, then I'll pretend that I didn't say anything just now."”After saying that, Beiming Gu was about to put away his flute.
Nalan Youyou anxiously reached out and grabbed the flute. This thing was now her life-saving straw. Jiang Ruyan's words had made her think that she was Wang Jing. If anything happened to her now, she would only be dead.
"Thank you, Fourth Prince." Nalan Youyou snatched the flute back and held it tightly in her arms, afraid that Beiming Gu would snatch it again.
Beiming Gu looked at Nalan Youyou's expression and smiled inexplicably. Nalan Youyou felt as if she had been schemed against, causing her heart to tremble. Now was not the time to think about this. He should think about how to deal with it.
Nalan Youyou took the flute and stood in the middle, looking at the Empress Dowager and the others." My daughter, Nalan Youyou, would like to present a song to the Empress Dowager to show her respect for the Empress Dowager.”
"Nalan Youyou, right?" She had been watching Nalan Youyou and the others until now when the Empress Dowager finally spoke. "What do you plan to offer this widow?”
"Replying to the Empress Dowager, I know that the Empress Dowager loves music and often cares about Buddhism, so I plan to offer a Buddhist music to congratulate the Empress Dowager.”Nalan Youyou was polite and restrained. Everyone knew that the Empress Dowager was good at Buddhism. However, the Buddhist music was too dull, and the charm in it was not something that ordinary people could display.
If it was not done well, it would be a joke. Therefore, no one dared to use this idea. Today, Nalan Youyou's surprise made Jiang Ruyan look at Nalan Youyou in disbelief.
The old madam was so angry that she almost fainted when she saw Nalan Youyou choose this out of all the choices she could make. It would be fine if she succeeded today, but if she did not, wouldn't she implicate Nalan Jingjing? The old madam was about to go up to the stage to stop Zhuang Huaijin." The old madam, the empress dowager, and the others are all here. You can't go, old madam."”
Beiming Yu looked at Nalan Youyou with great interest. Anyway, she completely trusted Nalan Youyou, so she was not worried.
The empress dowager smiled when she heard this. Her smile contained a lot of meaning. There was disbelief and anticipation. "Alright then, Nalan Youyou will show this widow.”
"Yes, sir!" Nalan Youyou nodded and stood in the middle. She looked at Nalan Jingjing and Jiang Ruyan who were still kneeling in the middle of the stage and did not move. The two of them felt Nalan Youyou's gaze and tactfully retreated. Before they left, Jiang Ruyan glared at Nalan Youyou fiercely.
Nalan Youyou turned a blind eye to it. She waited for the crowd on the stage to disperse before she waved her moon-white dress. Her elegant and beautiful appearance attracted everyone's attention.
"Good!" The Empress Dowager's soft shout had already expressed her admiration for Nalan Youyou.
Nalan Youyou didn't hear him and just made a dance gesture. The Empress looked at Nalan Youyou in confusion and said to the Empress Dowager," Empress Dowager, isn't Nalan Youyou offering a song? Why did she even start dancing?”
"Yeah, aijia also feels strange. Could it be that she had some special technique?”The Empress Dowager looked at Nalan Youyou with interest and paid more attention to Nalan Youyou. Beiming Gu looked at Nalan Youyou with satisfaction in his eyes. Nalan Youyou was indeed amazing.
Jiang Ruyan laughed and sneered. Nalan Youyou was really asking for death by offering a Buddhist song. She even offered a dance while offering a song. Alright, alright, Nalan Youyou, I want to see how badly you will die!
Nalan Youyou played the flute with her red lips. A clear and gentle voice slowly came out from the flute. As the flute played, Nalan Youyou's body danced elegantly with the clear and beautiful music.
Every step she took was filled with elegance. Originally, it was quite difficult to dance with Buddhist music. Now, it was even rarer that Nalan Youyou could dance while playing music.
The music was leisurely and the dance was gentle and beautiful. It revealed the profound meaning of Buddhism between the movements. For a moment, the Empress Dowager was stunned.
The Empress Dowager was stunned, and so were the others. Nalan Youyou was too unexpected. What no one could do, Nalan Youyou did it easily. Not only did she do it, but she also did it very well. Jiang Ruyan, Nalan Jingjing, and the others looked at Nalan Youyou with dark faces.
Nalan Jingjing sat at the side and watched Nalan Youyou's talent. Nalan Yanwan, who was sitting at the side, looked at Nalan Jingjing with incomparable disdain. She snorted disdainfully and did not even bother to look at Nalan Jingjing. She raised her head and enjoyed Nalan Youyou's dance.
Jiang Ruyan gritted her teeth and used her wide sleeves as cover, sending the round and delicate Elemental Jewel towards Nalan Youyou's feet.
"Hmm?" Beiming Gu saw a flash of light in front of him and raised his eyebrows. One Weep's small Wish Bead was heading towards Nalan Youyou's feet. If Nalan Youyou stepped on it, she would definitely fall.
Beiming Gu casually picked up a peanut on the table and urged it with his inner strength. The peanut flew towards the Ruyi Pearl.
With an almost inaudible sound, the peanut accurately knocked the Ruyi Pearl away. The Ruyi Pearl rolled to Nalan Jingjing's feet and lay down.
Jiang Ruyan looked at the Ruyi Pearl and smiled in satisfaction. She stared at Nalan Youyou and waited for her to make a fool of herself. It would be best if she was disfigured. That would satisfy Jiang Ruyan more than killing her.
After waiting for a moment, Nalan Youyou became more and more anxious as she danced. When the last movement stopped, the music also fell. Everyone was immersed in the dance and music just now, unable to tune themselves.
Nalan Youyou bowed deeply and waited for the Empress Dowager to come back to her senses. Beiming Gu saw that Nalan Youyou's movements had stopped. He looked at the people who were still immersed in the music and took the lead to clap. The strength in his hand was just enough to wake everyone up and save Nalan Youyou from kneeling.
The empress dowager was shocked to see Nalan Youyou, who had stopped at some point. She smiled in satisfaction." Good, good, good! Alright! Nalan Youyou, your dance is indeed exquisite.”
"Youyou, thank you for your praise, Empress Dowager." Nalan Youyou bowed deeply again.
Jiang Ruyan was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Why didn't Nalan Youyou fall to the ground just now? The Empress sized up Nalan Youyou with a glint in her eyes.
"Nalan Youyou is indeed talented and beautiful. I wonder if you have studied poetry?”The Empress looked at Nalan Youyou and clearly did not want to let Nalan Youyou off so easily.
Nalan Youyou did not know what the Empress was thinking, but she knew that she did not want to let her off so easily. If she made a mistake, she was afraid that things would not be good today.
Nalan Youyou bowed down." Replying to the Empress, I only know the surface.”
"Oh? Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday, and your Zen dance is quite fascinating. Why don't you use Zen to compose a poem?”The Empress had given the question, so Nalan Youyou had no excuse to leave even if she wanted to.
Nalan Youyou was speechless. Was he afraid that she would resign? However, since he had already gone up, he would not go down!
"Please allow me to think about it."
"You can't think for too long. You only have the time to brew a cup of tea. If you do it, you will naturally be rewarded. If you don't, you will be punished.”The Empress Dowager looked at Nalan Youyou and pushed her again.
Jiang Ruyan was amused when she heard that. Luckily, she didn't interrupt Nalan Youyou's dance just now. She was even more amused when she saw Nalan Youyou being defeated by the Empress Dowager and the Empress. You were still so proud, but now the Empress Dowager and the Empress don't like you. That's better than me attacking you. Jiang Ruyan leaned back in her chair and looked at Nalan Youyou with satisfaction. She was waiting for the Empress Dowager to punish her if she couldn't do it.
Beiming Yu panicked and quickly stood up." Empress Dowager, this is unfair! To let Youyou write a poem in the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Empress Dowager, aren't you deliberately punishing Youyou? No, no! It would take at least half an incense's time!”
"Sixth girl, don't cause trouble. It has already begun.”The empress dowager smiled as she looked at the sixth princess. Her eyes were filled with love. Beiming Yu was so frightened by the empress dowager that she quickly shut her mouth.
Beiming Gu looked at Nalan Youyou worriedly, his hands unconsciously clenched. He could barely compose a poem in just ten minutes, but it was hard to say for Nalan Youyou.
Beiming Zhe originally wanted to say a few words for Nalan Youyou, but when he heard the Empress Dowager say this, he quickly suppressed the words that were about to come out of his mouth, afraid that he would disturb Nalan Youyou from thinking about the poem.
The time it took to brew a cup of tea was not long, and more than half of it had already passed.
Seeing that Nalan Youyou hadn't figured it out yet, Jiang Ruyan was even more certain that Nalan Youyou couldn't do it. Her mean mouth and face were full of pride.
"Nalan Youyou's time is up.”The Empress Dowager looked up at Nalan Youyou and said in a dignified manner. Nalan Youyou raised her head when she heard the Empress Dowager's words. She looked at the Empress Dowager and bowed deeply. Just when everyone thought that Nalan Youyou wanted to plead for her, she was shocked.
Nalan Youyou's red lips parted slightly." Empress Dowager, I already have a poem in my heart."”
Beiming Yu and the other two heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Nalan Youyou's words. Beiming Gu loosened his sore fingers and realized that his palms were covered in sweat.
"Oh? Tell me." The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows in delight. She was a little surprised. She had deliberately made things difficult for Nalan Youyou, but she did not expect Nalan Youyou to have thought of it. She just did not know how the poem would be.
"Sitting and watching the cloud peaks turn, refreshing is peace of mind. The sun and the moon shine together, and the great path of heaven and earth comes. Only when I fly in the air do I feel that it is easy to fly, and the dust of my horsetail whisk has not touched my clothes. Go or stay in the world, free to cross the vast expanse.”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:122120184:05AM
