Chapter 257: A smile pours over everyone

Listening to the nobles' discussions, Liu Xiqing smiled silently, but her heart was cold.

Pu Yangxuan really thought that she was dead set on him, not only hoped that she would help him get Nangong Yi, but even Qi Luodai of the Wu Kingdom would not let go.

If Nangong Yi enters the Yanwang Mansion with her, Liu Xiqing can accept it.

Because Nangong Yi originally regarded Liu Xiqing as a sister who put her heart into her heart, and she was simple-minded, and she didn't know too much about intrigues.

In the future, he could only be led by Liu Xiqing's nose.

But Qi Luodai is different, she grew up in the palace of Wu since she was a child, and the drama of the harem women competing for favor is probably not uncommon.

Moreover, Qi Luodai is involved in nearly one-third of the forces of Wu State, and her identity is more noble than Liu Xiqing and Nangong Yi.

Goodbye to her domineering and jealous temperament, if she becomes Puyang Xuan's woman in the future, she will inevitably suppress other women around him.

And Puyang Xuan intends to become a big thing, and needs the help of the forces behind Qi Luodai, and he will definitely be obedient to her.

In this way, Liu Xiqing has no future at all.

Liu Xiqing is no longer able to compromise and seek perfection, and he will not be stupid enough to push himself into the fire pit.

Her gaze went from Qi Luodai to Pu Yangxuan, and she responded to him, but the corner of her eyes swept to Pu Yangche on his side.

Pu Yangche did not deliberately show doting on Xing Ruoyou in front of everyone as before, but at this time, he naturally added delicacies to Xing Ruoyou's bowl, and occasionally whispered in her ear, making Liu Xiqing's body stiffen for a moment.

Liu Xiqing had chased Pu Yangche for many years, but he had never been treated like this, and his heart suddenly became full of jealousy.

For some reason, she could feel that Pu Yangche was different from Xing Ruoyou, and even felt his careful care for her.

is the same prince, Pu Yang Xuan and Pu Yang Che's attitudes towards their own women are completely different.

Let Liu Xiqing not be jealous, how not to be resentful.

But Liu Xiqing is not an idle person, and when her eyes returned to Qi Luodai again, she already had an idea, and her eyes flashed with calculations.

She wanted to see how Pu Yangche made a choice in the face of Xing Ruoyou and the monstrous power that came over her hands.

The four were talking in a whisper, but Liu Xiqing stood up on his own, and bowed to the emperor and queen: "Tell the emperor and the queen, although Xiqing is not talented, she wants to seize this rare opportunity to communicate with Princess Luo Dai." ”

Liu Xiqing's reputation as the "first talented woman" is also well known, and everyone sees her coming out to face the battle, and they are mostly appreciative and expectant.

Liu Taishou was also optimistic about his daughter, and got up to ask the emperor and empress for permission.

Things have come to this point, and the emperor can only nod and agree.

Liu Xiqing also received Puyang Xuan's profound gaze before taking the stage, and she smiled back shallowly, then stood next to Qi Luodai, and said with a smile: "I don't know how Princess Luodai wants to communicate?" ”

Her voice is clear and soft, her temperament is elegant, and although her beauty is not as good as Qi Luodai, she is not inferior to her when she stands in one place.

This made the people in the audience wait and see, wanting to see the "competition" between the first talented woman of the Great Wei Kingdom and the first beauty of the Wu Kingdom.

Qi Luodai also smiled and revealed the pear vortex on both sides: "I heard that the fourth lady of the Liu family is the first talented woman in the Wei Kingdom, if it is a man, she must be the best talent." This princess will exchange piano skills and painting skills with you, what do you think? ”

"Xiqing has really learned two or three talents, but she doesn't dare to call herself 'first'," Liu Xiqing has always been very humble and respectful, "The princess wants to communicate, and Xiqing should accompany her." ”

At this time, Qi Luodai was confident, Liu Xiqing was neither humble nor arrogant, and the two of them each played a tune with the royal guqin, and the sound of the piano was melodious and moving, and it was really difficult to distinguish the equal.

But Liu Xiqing deliberately played a wrong note, which was slightly inferior.

But in terms of painting skills, Liu Xiqing played her best and pulled back a game.

The two are considered to be tied.

The face of both countries has been saved, and this is undoubtedly the best outcome.

But Qi Luodai was not satisfied with this result, and hoped to find someone to "exchange" her dance skills.

When Xing Ruoming saw Liu Xiqing coming to power, she was a little eager to try.

If Xing Ruoming is slightly inferior to Liu Xiqing in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, her dancing skills can be regarded as the best among all the nobles.

At this time, Puyang Xuan, who she had just seen in her heart, was also on the spot, she naturally wanted to behave well, and she also learned from Liu Xiqing's self-recommendation.

Unexpectedly, the result of the dance was unsatisfactory, no matter the dance posture, movements, rhythm and temperament, she was compared to Qi Luodai alive, and Xing Ruoming was simply embarrassed.

After returning to her seat, Xing Ruoming's whole person was not well, if it weren't for Liu Xiqing who had been comforting her, she would have cried out a long time ago.

Among the skills that Qi Luodai has learned, she is most proud of her dancing skills, and she is quite satisfied with the result this time, but she has not stopped "communicating".

In terms of talent, Liu Xiqing, the first talented woman, only had a tie with Qi Luodai; And Xing Ruoming, whose dancing skills are the best in the noble women's world of Wei, lost completely.

Although the nobles are not accustomed to Qi Luodai's arrogance, no one wants to bring humiliation on themselves again.

For a while, the state banquet, which should have been lively and extraordinary, became silent.

Qi Luodai's half-moon-like eyes swept around the field with a smile, and finally fixed on Xing Ruoyou, who had been hanging his head and only caring about eating.

She had noticed Pu Yangche and Xing Ruoyou from the beginning of the banquet, just because their performance was too unusual.

Pu Yangche was originally wearing a black gauze hat that was enough to attract attention, and he didn't pay attention to the movement on the stage from beginning to end, only the woman beside him in his eyes.

Although he was not in a good mood, when he saw that Xing Ruoyou only cared about eating, he would still add some of her favorite food to her bowl from time to time, and occasionally chat with her.

And Xing Ruoyou was thinking about how to make Puyang Yu angry, and he didn't pay attention to what happened on the stage at all.

Qi Luodai has long been accustomed to the attention of the public, how can she tolerate the existence of ignoring her all the time.

And when she saw Xing Ruoyou's face clearly, she was much more shocked than when she saw Concubine Xiao, and the jealousy in her eyes flashed, so she walked in her direction with a smile.

Xing Ruoyou faintly noticed that the eyes around him seemed to be looking towards him, and when he raised his eyes, he found that Qi Luodai was already a few steps away from him, and blinked a few times in confusion, but under his hand he was pulling Pu Yangche's hand and wrote; "What does this woman want?"

Pu Yangche only wrote the word "boring" in her hand, which made her almost roll her eyes.

However, on the face, Xing Ruoyou was polite, but he raised his lips and smiled.

Most of the people have only seen the sorrowful description of Xingruo's sorrowful frown, and they have felt that it is absolutely beautiful.

She had been keeping her head down before, and everyone's eyes were attracted by Qi Luodai like a peacock, who had paid attention to her.

Now seeing her smile, I feel that the stars and the moon are eclipsed, and I can still look away.

Almost at the same time, everyone felt that Princess Xuan's appearance was even better than that of Princess Luodai.

Although he knew that King Xuan was ruthless and bloodthirsty, those noble sons just couldn't control their eyes, and they didn't count sticking to Xing Ruoyou, and some of them were even hot.
