Chapter 217

Bai Xian only glanced at the Lord and never raised her eyelids again. All the three people with the highest status today are her enemies, or not obvious enemies, but she must be dissatisfied with Bai Xian. She doesn't expect anything now. She just wants to return to Bai Fu unharmed.

She put down her glass and pretended to listen carefully to what imperial concubine Hua was saying: "today, I invite you ladies to come. First, the palace loves the scenery in the garden. Second, I just want to see what talents you ladies have. Shu Ya shouted all day that she has no playmates. The Palace wants to find a lovely lady to play with Shu Ya in the palace."

Listening to Hua Guifei's words, she wrapped her original purpose in a beautiful coat. Bai Xian scoffed at her. Anyway, as long as she didn't perform talent and speak today, the second prince had no reason to choose herself.

But looking at Li Jingjing next to him, Bai Xian said curiously, "what is Sister Li going to perform?"

Li Jingjing was a little embarrassed. In her opinion, Bai Xian should not see these zither, chess, calligraphy and painting in her daughter's house: "sister Bai, I'm not sure. Let's see what the people in front are performing first."

Bai Xian nodded and thought she had seen a song and dance performance. She quietly raised her head and glanced at the main position. She found that Murong Zheng seemed to be aware of it, so she quickly turned back to look at the food in front of her.

Just then, Zuo Shuwan, who bullied Li Jingjing and Bai Xian, volunteered to come out. Dressed in red, she immediately attracted the attention of the audience: "aunt, Shu Wan is willing to be the first person."

Gong Huamin looked at his niece and pretended to be helpless. He introduced it like Murong Zheng: "let the second prince laugh. This is Zuo Shuwan, the palace's own niece. On weekdays, she is lively and spoiled by the palace."

Murong Zheng had a polite smile on his face. After only looking at Zuo Shuwan, he turned the domineering Miss Zuo's face red and ran down shyly to prepare.

Bai Xian guessed that Zuo Shuwan, the beautiful and publicity character, would never just play a zither and write a word. Sure enough, the Miss Zuo put on a brighter dance dress and dragged a long silk to come forward: "aunt, second prince, Shu Wan made a fool of herself."

With the sound of music, Zuo Shuwan danced enchanting, but Bai Xian, who wanted to avoid the attention of Murong Zheng and imperial concubine Hua, didn't look up and tried to shrink himself into the corner and pretend that he didn't exist.

Zuo Shuwan's sweet sweat was dripping, which brought sincere or false applause from all the ladies present. She looked at Murong Zheng affectionately before she ran to change her clothes. Imperial concubine Hua reluctantly said to Murong Zheng, "we Shuwan are really a good woman. Since she heard that the second prince was coming, I don't know where she learned the dance of Wan country, and her toes were bleeding."

Murongzheng's eyes were full of alienation. Although he agreed to marry him because of his father's will, he didn't expect that the Dayin emperor could really make a princess who was not willing to marry himself. It was called to let him choose the most suitable one from many noble women.

However, he only pretended that he didn't understand the intentional match of imperial concubine Hua and said, "imperial concubine Hua is really joking. Our country is rough and open, and we can dance only when offering sacrifices to heaven."

Murong Zheng's voice was not loud, but Gong Huamin, Princess Shuya and king an heard it. Unexpectedly, his words were so straightforward that they couldn't hang on their faces.

King an he Jinyu first returned to normal. He smiled gently, as if Murong Zheng was joking just now: "second prince, my cousin is a playful nature. I didn't expect to make a mistake, but second prince, for her sincere sake, I'd better forgive her."

Murong Zheng looked at he Jinyu like a cunning fox. He just couldn't bear Zuo Shuwan's bold style. Hu Suwa said a few words. Unexpectedly, the other party made such a sincere apology. He had to raise his glass and said, "the prince doesn't have to be so serious. The prince doesn't care. Please."

The two men drank wine happily, while Princess Shuya kept winking at imperial concubine Hua. Imperial concubine Hua pressed her hand. Her daughter was good everywhere. She became impatient when she met Shaoyue.

"Ladies, don't be shy. Who else will come next?"

Liu Minyan, the daughter of Liu Shangshu, is the woman who once played que CI in the Royal Pavilion and slandered Bai Xian and Shaoyue for having an affair with men and women. She bravely came forward: "the imperial concubine, the second prince and the little girl are willing to play a song for you."

Although Liu Minyan originally slandered Bai Xian to vent her anger for Princess Shuya, Princess Shuya didn't think she was her own friend. In Shuya's heart, even her cousin Zuo Shuwan was just the daughter of a courtier. Unlike her, she had noble royal blood.

However, Princess Shuya is a gentle and polite symbol in front of people. She looks at Liu Minyan and shows an encouraging smile. Liu Minyan sweeps Murong Zheng. After she sees Murong Zheng's face closely, she forces her father to attend the chrysanthemum feast that she was not invited to, and there is no complaint anymore.

Liu Minyan didn't have to change clothes to play the zither. After saluting, Liu Minyan sat directly in front of a zither and made a little brewing, so she began to play it. The music was gurgling. Unexpectedly, Liu Minyan, who was worried about her character, could pop up a superb zither. Bai Xian couldn't help looking up at her.

Next to Li Jingjing whispered, "Oh, dancing and playing Zheng have been performed. What's good for me?"

Bai Xian still likes this new friend, because Li Jingjing is a very frank person to her friends. Such people don't need to spend too much time getting along.

She reminded: "Sister Li, it doesn't matter. Someone will perform the repeated project once."

Bai Xian thinks that there are only a few ancient musical instruments. Most of these young ladies have learned zither, zither, flute and pipa, which look more beautiful, such as Yangqin, or erhu and Cuan, which are not elegant to play.

So she speculated that most of the later people would perform repeated projects, but she didn't expect that she had just comforted Li Jingjing with this reason. Li Jingjing's face was red. She was still wondering what she said was wrong, so Li Jingjing explained in a low voice.

"Sister Bai, no one will perform repeated items at the party in lodu."

Bai Xian was embarrassed. She secretly said that the TV series really hurt me. She hurriedly said, "sorry, Sister Li, this is the first time for me to attend a banquet that can show my talents."

Seeing the shame on Bai Xian's face, Li Jingjing knew that Bai Xian must be telling the truth. Those who didn't know it were not guilty. She didn't put Bai Xian's words in her heart and wondered what to perform.

While they were talking, Liu Minyan had finished playing a song and the ceremony fell into silence. The second prince Murong Zheng had seen Bai Xian and was about to ask Bai Xian to perform. Li Jingjing fiercely stood up and walked to the imperial concubine: "empress, the second prince, I want to perform sword dance."
