The annual Flower Soul Exhibition had finally arrived.

Before dawn, many nuns came to dress for the dancers. However, only Shen Changqing was missing. Listening to the dancers, on the day of every Flower Soul Exhibition, Aunt Shen would mysteriously disappear. He could be busy with something else, or he could be entertaining guests.

It was just that, Luo Shang, she kept feeling uneasy in her heart today. She could always remember Qing Ning's words: mantis stalks the cicada, oriole follows.

If the mantis was Qing Ning, then who was the oriole?

A few hours later, all the dancers were gathered on the jade platform.

It was only when a loud voice shouted, "All female dancers, listen up!" The leaders will report themselves to the palace. "

"The head of the Southern Garden dancers, An Zhuran."

"The head of the West Garden dancers, Luo Shang."

"Eastgarden …"

"…"

The eunuch swung the horsetail whisk in his hand and shouted. "Let's go."

All the dancers, singers, musicians, and moons were divided into several groups. Under the lead of her father-in-law, they headed towards the Flower Soul Exhibition's Royal Palace.

"Hey, have you heard? The ones that come to the Flower Soul Exhibition Palace are all the sons of the Royal Family. If any of them take a fancy to this, it will be a glorious life." The dancers were so excited that they forgot their normal state.

"Shut up! You must be tired of living! " The eunuch swung the horsetail whisk in his hand, raising his grizzled white eyebrows, blowing on his beard and glaring at him. He was very impolite and angry.

The dancers stopped, only muttering some bad words to themselves.

From the moment they left the backyard until now, the long red carpet had been laid all the way to the Flower Souls Exhibition Palace.

As soon as he entered the palace gates, the maidservants guarding the entrance were all dressed extravagantly and dressed neatly. And polite.

As soon as they entered, everyone was stunned once again. The size of the palace became bigger and bigger every year, and it became more and more majestic and solemn every year.

The red carpet went straight to the high platform, with cherry blossoms on both sides and cherry blossoms on both sides. Petals, tender and alluring, danced in the air, embedded into the red carpet, creating a unique style. On both sides of the pavilion, there were beautiful sights as well as all kinds of beautiful flowers.

The spring flowers by the pool were blooming brightly. They grew when they came into the water, their slender branches drooping gracefully. Their yellow petals shyly bloomed until their branches were full. The breeze blew across the water like a young girl's reflection in a mirror.

Bright sunlight passed through the blossoming cherry trees, sprinkling gold kisses, mottled tree shadows on the river surface. A faint breeze carried the snowy cherry blossoms as they flew and spun … A long red carpet with rippling waves.

A faint fragrance wafted in the air, attracting many thoughts, lingering in the air. The melodious chirping of birds was blissfully clear among the trees and flowers. The joyous cry of the bird resonated with the sound of the silky bamboo that came from the distant pavilion hall.

Everyone climbed the stairs of the stage in an orderly manner. The design of the brothel, even more unique, with the red tone as the main, light yellow light yarn as the supplementary.

Red ribbons could be seen floating in the air. Light and shadow, flowers and leaves intertwined as they flew up. A magnificent golden building stood tall, as if it had entered heaven on earth.

As soon as he entered the hall, the large stage was as smooth as water. On the stage, a veiled beauty was playing a zither. A faint fragrance wafted in the air, giving off a kind of beautiful vibe.

Following that eunuch's voice, he shouted, "Head of all the gardens, follow me."

The dancers, singers, musicians, and others followed their father-in-law into the main hall.

From the moment they entered the Gateway, everything was magnificent. It was so bright that it was shocking. The two sides of the banquet were filled with royal disciples. Only the tallest person in the distance sat down, his eyes wide open as he stared at the two of them as they walked over. Beside him was the empress dowager's Jinghe. One side was him. Prince Jin Leng Shaoyu.

Presumably, this person was His Majesty.

"It's Big Sister Fairy?" Young Lord, who was seated low to the side, put down the grapes in his hand and opened his eyes wide.

"Shh …" Leng Mufei who was beside him shook his head at the child, patted his head and forced a grape into his mouth, stopping him from speaking.

Over a dozen elegant and dignified women walked unsteadily with their hands in front of them. All of them wore veils and walked slowly. Their attire was different, as were the makeup on the faces of the leaders of the various gardens.

Shen Changqing had said that he would let Luo Shang take over the position of manager and take over the position of leader in her place.

Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, she took a step forward. The sound was like the sound of nature, warm as water, and as calm as the heart. The West Garden dancers lead all the girls here to kowtow to the saint's grace. "

Dressed in a light purple gauze mask, her hair was scattered around her waist, embedded with pearl peony bundles at the top. The remaining two straps were casually hung down, dancing against the gentle wind that blew into the hall.

She was dressed in a light blue muslin dress, simple yet elegant, charming and graceful, with a light plum blossom makeup painted on her elegant jade face. "A pair of resplendent, starlight purple eyes like the most beautiful heavenly lake. Everywhere she passed, a faint fragrance of flowers could be felt.

Although her face was covered, just with her eyes, eyebrows, and the clothes she wore, her seductive figure was able to cause the crowd to dream of her devastatingly beautiful face under the veil.

All of the royal young masters seated in the hall quietly stared at this woman who was out of the ordinary. They really wanted to take off this veil to see just what kind of immortal concubine she was.

His Majesty, who was sitting on the throne, was already drooling. If it wasn't for the empress dowager's face, he would have held the woman in his arms long ago.

On the other hand, the Jinghe of the empress dowager had a dark expression. She looked at Leng Shaoyu and asked flatly, "You arranged this?"

She was able to tell this girl's identity with a glance. In this world, other than her little sister, the only person who could find a girl that was more beautiful than her little sister was this girl.

Leng Shaoyu did not speak, but he narrowed his eyes, which were as deep as the water of a deep pond with unfathomable depths. He looked at Luo Shang, and did not have any sort of attitude towards him.

Below the stage, Leng Mufei could only laugh. Looking at Prince Jin's face, none of them dared to speak.

"Everyone kneel!" The eunuch waved the horsetail whisk in his hand again, and the dozen or so women all knelt down at the same time. They said gently, "The maidens of the backyard pay their respects to the saint's grace. May the empress dowager enjoy the blessings of ten thousand years, may the Prince Jin enjoy a prosperous life, and may my Great Zhou be passed down from generation to generation. "

"Good, good, good. Get up, you beautiful woman." His Majesty rubbed his hands together, his eyeballs almost popping out of their sockets. Only when the Jinghe next to him coughed lightly did he manage to restrain himself.

He said to his father-in-law, "Let the banquet begin."

"Yes." This old servant obeys the decree. " The eunuch bent his body to receive the order, and then said to Luo Shang and the rest, "Hurry and get ready."

The sound of silk, bamboo, and strings entered his ears. The zither floated on the high platform, melodious and clear, trickling down like a stream, pure and unrestrained. The zither was a combination of ingenuity and natural fusion. It was as if the zither had crushed all the flowers in the world.

Accompanied by the melody of the zither, the hundreds of women first cupped their hands around their hips, covering their faces, and then hugged their guzheng. Like a cloud, they flew past the great hall and surrounded the stage in a dignified manner. After that, the heavenly music was exquisite and soothing, soothing to the ears.

Luo Shang put on her veil, only to see that Shen Changqing still had not appeared. She looked at the people around her, and her expression was slightly urgent. She asked: "Where is Miss Su Qing? Where did she go? "

The West Garden dancers looked carefully, but did not see any trace of Su Qing. She was standing here just a moment ago.

"Why hasn't this Su Qing returned at the most crucial moment, she really deserves to die." The dancers were excited.

However, Luo Shang's eyes darkened. Suddenly, her pupils dilated, as if she thought of something, and she immediately ran out.

"Princess …" Xiao Zhu and the rest did not stop her, as they did not know what she was planning to do.

Just as Luo Shang was about to leave, the Senior Servant came from behind and said, "Ladies, it's time. Follow me."

"May …" But our wangfei hasn't come back yet. " A dancer whispered weakly.

When the senior servants heard this, their eyes widened in surprise. What? "Princess?"

An Zhuran immediately stood out, and indicated to the dancers not to speak carelessly, she laughed and spoke through her veil: "The ladies are too nervous, I spoke the wrong words, I hope Aunt does not take it to heart, I am the head of the dancers, and will lead the group to follow you in."

"But …" The dancers were thinking about Luo Shang as they kept staring at the door.

"What are you all still standing there for? Hurry up and follow me in." An Zhuran ordered. She already knew that the Flower Soul Exhibition was a royal gathering, and the one who couldn't be forgiven was the dancer. If Luo Shang left for no reason and delayed her time, she might not be able to keep her life.

Just as they were about to go up the stage, they saw that Su Qing had returned. She was covered in a light veil, and some perspiration trickled down her forehead.

"Why did you come back? Where's the wangfei?" Xiao Zhu hurriedly went over to ask her.

The only thing the wangfei could do now was to find this woman. Why had she come back first?

Su Qing looked at her silently, and did not even look at the Xiao Zhu, but narrowed her cold eyes, and turned to follow the mama into the great hall.

"Sister Zhu Yan, what should we do?" The dancers looked at each other, like ants on a hot fire, at a loss of what to do.

With the situation, they couldn't wait for Luo Shang anymore. Su Qing had already went ahead, and they could only follow her into the arena.

"Xiao Zhu, go and find the wangfei immediately. You must get her back before the dance ends. Remember, if the princess comes back, no matter what happens, you can't let her go on stage again. " An Zhuran arranged everything, and led everyone to get ready, and went up the stage.
