Under Bai Jing's persuasion, Qi Mo and I reached a common understanding. The two of us decided that we should first settle the matter of the palace feast, and we should also let our restaurant's reputation shine on the palace feast this time around.
"Little Xing, it's already been a day. Have you thought about what to do? There's still one more month before the palace feast. Don't mess up when the time comes." Qi Mo was lying on a rocking chair in the courtyard, basking in the sunlight, chewing on a huge apple in his hands as he spoke indistinctly.
"Isn't there still a month left? The emperor isn't in a hurry, and the overseer isn't. Don't worry, I'll definitely give you a big surprise." I don't care.
"You're just too generous." Qi Mo looked at me with a face full of helplessness.
"What sort of performance was that when you were at the banquet in the palace?"
"The show will be played by all the musicians in the palace. Then, the young ladies of all the countries will compete for the top spot." Qi Mo said lazily.
"Does it look good?" I asked.
"It's always the same thing every year. It's still fresh at the beginning, but I don't feel anything after a while." Qi Mo's face was filled with disgust, if those young ladies saw his expression, they would be so furious.
"Is it that bad? Your expression." I looked at him and thought he was exaggerating. After all, it was a royal performance.
Take that Sun Rouer for example, she's the number one female prodigy and the prettiest girl in our capital, but her name is just because she danced a waltz last time at the palace feast, so she got a name, but you know, she did this two times in the palace feast, so I think I can go up and pick her out. Qi Mo rolled his eyes, expressing his helplessness.
"Alright, it looks like I have to put in more effort on this program. I have to come up with some new tricks, or else I'll be letting down on my lifetime's talent." I touched my chin.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough. Can you say anything human in broad daylight? I was almost choked to death by you." Qi Mo's apple stuck in his throat and he coughed violently.
"F * ck off." I immediately grabbed an apple beside me and threw it over. Qi Mo caught it accurately.
When I saw Qi Mo's clean and tidy voice, coupled with his peerlessly beautiful complexion, I instantly had a rotten idea.
"Qi Mo." I deliberately lengthened the end, and the sound was a soft one.
"Don't talk to me like that. It's not going to be good." Qi Mo looked at me with eyes full of resistance and fear.
"How is that possible? I have a great thing waiting for you right now." As I spoke, I blinked my eyes and tried my best to persuade Qi Mo.
"What do you want to talk about first?" Qi Mo was still on guard.
After all, he has such a good foundation that he cannot be wasted. Furthermore, his reputation in the capital is that of a famous Young Noble, Wandering, if he were to go up on stage, those Miss Venerable's eyes would fall off of him.
"No, absolutely not. How could I go on stage and perform? I'm a scholar after all." Qi Mo looked at me with an expression that said he would rather die than surrender.
"Even if you can't, you have to. Besides, don't you always feel depressed that your ranking is lower than Bai Jing? Look, now is a good opportunity. You can display your skills in front of those Miss Century and give off your own charm." As I spoke, I raised my eyebrows at Qi Mo, and used my body language to convince him.
"Really," Qi Mo said with a face full of suspicion.
"I promise on my character." I was up on all fours, swearing to God.
"I don't believe it, do you have such a noble character?"
"Anyway, we only have this one chance. If we miss you, we'll forever be behind the white scenery." I used my trump card.
"Alright, I'll support you, but if you don't succeed by then, then you have to give me a free week to be a servant girl." Qi Mo thought about it and finally came to a compromise, even if it was with conditions.
"Sure thing." I made an OK gesture.
I lay in my chair, thinking about my plans, and I was happy. I was a genius.
That night, I wrote down all the programs I remembered from the Spring Festival Gala that I had watched before selecting them one by one to see if they were suitable for palace feast.
"Princess, it's already late at night. Why aren't you sleeping? You've written so much, why can't this servant understand?" Xia Shui poured a cup of hot water for me and looked at the paper on the table.
"This is my exclusive font, you definitely won't be able to understand it." I saw that all of them were simple men, no wonder Xia Shui couldn't understand.
"What are these?" Xia Shui asked curiously.
"It's a program that I show when I am thinking of the palace feast." I swept a glance over it. In Xia Shui's hands, there was a classic song that I had written for this Spring Festival Gala.
"That can be used. Let's put it at the end of the program. I'll set up an ancient Spring Festival Gala in the palace." A flash of pride passed through my eyes.
Lying on the bed, my mind was filled with the unforgettable melodies and pictures of this night. Luckily, my memory was quite good.
The next morning, I excitedly took the first draft of my program and went to look for Bai Jing. Bai Jing had already gone to attend the morning assembly.
I was surprised that Bai Jing, who had never gone to the morning assembly before, had become so active recently.
Jian Yi didn't follow Bai Jing, but stayed guard in the yard. When I went in, Jian Yi had been practicing his sword. I had seen Bai Jing practice his sword, so his sword art wasn't too amazing to me.
But Xia Shui and Hong'er who were by my side had looks of worship on their faces. It isn't strange for Xia Shui to be infatuated with me, but Hong'er is also a martial artist, and the way she looks at Jian Yi's eyes is filled with worship. This means that her swordsmanship isn't bad, so I came up with an idea.
"Sword One, Sword One." I greeted my sword practice.
When the sword heard my call and saw me bouncing around calling out to him, I actually saw disdain and reluctance in his eyes.
But after all, I had a request to ask of others, so I endured it.
"Princess, the Prince went to attend the morning assembly." Sword1 thought I was looking for Bai Jing.
"I know, I'm looking for you." I smiled, naked calculation in my eyes.
"Jian Yi sensed a dangerous aura and looked at me warily." Princess, what do you want this time? "
"Why are you so nervous? It's not like I'm going to harm you. Seriously, we're all family, why are you acting so disregarding?" I patted Jianyi's shoulder with an insidious smile.
