Chapter 54: Grudges

Wu Tianrou, who had just started the dance steps, heard a different accompaniment coming from the side, she turned her head to look in the direction where the flute sound came from, and saw Jin Mingchi who was playing the flute.

Nodding and smiling politely at him, Wu Tianrou started dancing with the music. For a while, the posture was sometimes graceful and graceful, sometimes delicate and charming, and everyone who looked directly at it was intoxicated.

"Yes, Wu Yunyang's daughter has excellent dancing skills since she was a child, I remember that she doesn't like to dance that kind of intense encouragement the most, why is this graceful and subtle dance this time? But the dancing is really good, the body is soft, the dance steps are light, good! ”

Looking at Wu Tianrou's dance, the smile in the corners of the queen's eyes, she nodded with satisfaction, put her head slightly close to the emperor, and said softly.

"yes, good dance. I didn't expect this girl to grow up, not as empty-eyed and arrogant as before, Yunyang can rest assured! ”

Wu Yunyang has been the emperor's companion since he was a child, it can be said that the emperor grew up in the company of Wu Yunyang, and the relationship between the two is different from others, so he is also very concerned about the affairs of the Wu family.

Turning his head and looking at Jin Mingchi, who was sitting in the banquet and playing a long flute, the emperor frowned slightly.

"Looking at this Jin Mingchi's cousin, it seems that he is interested in Wu Tianrou, but let Yunyang's only concubine go and kiss, this is ......"

Raising his hand and caressing his beard, the emperor sighed softly.

"Time is also fate, the fate of juniors is not something you and I can control, let's take a look."

patted the emperor's hand soothingly, and the queen smiled at him and raised her wine glass.

"It's a pity that the concubine didn't bring a man and a half woman to the emperor, so I can't share the emperor's worries."

"How can the queen say that, you and I have a deep relationship, for decades, although there are no heirs between you and me, but this does not affect the relationship between you and me. Besides, my other children will respect and love you in the same way. ”

Picked up the wine glass and touched it with the queen, the emperor smiled gently at her, and then the two drank the wine in the glass.

As Wu Tingrou's dance gradually entered the **, the praise around him was even more endless, Wu Tingcheng gritted his teeth with jealousy, but in a blink of an eye, he found that not far in front of him was the county lord of Qianqian. She rolled her eyes, and immediately showed a malicious smile.

"Alas, Yueru, how do you see my cousin's dance? How does it compare to the county lord of Qianqian? ”

Deliberately raised his voice a little, Wu Qingcheng's sharp eyes found that as his words fell, the back of the Qianqian County Lord in front of him suddenly straightened.

"Humph! Wu Tianrou's straw bag can only be used for dancing skills, no matter where she goes, she uses dancing to attract attention, which is really shameless! Look at her twisted waist, and she is not afraid of breaking! ”

Glaring jealously at the dancing figure on the stage, Sun Yue knew her own affairs. She was born with no dancing talent, her hands and feet were stiff, and she couldn't even dance the amazing dance that everyone in the water country could do.

At this time, she was jealous when she saw that Wu Tingrou could dance this dance that everyone could dance so vividly, especially when she saw that the eldest prince Situ Jingtian had been staring at her since he beat Wu Tianrou on stage, and she was even more jealous in her heart.

It turned out that a few years ago, when Situ Jingtian, who had made meritorious contributions in guarding the city at the border pass and defeated the army of Yanhuo Kingdom, led the army back to Beijing, the people welcomed him.

At that time, Sun Yueru fell in love with him deeply since she saw the handsome and masculine Situ Sedum on horseback, and since then the ideal in her heart is to be able to become the princess of the eldest prince.

Therefore, seeing that the eldest prince paid so much attention to Wu Tianrou, Sun Yueru's heart became sour and stuffy.

"Humph! How good is the dancing of the county lord of Qianqian, does she have the talent of the county lord of Qianqian? ”

"Hehe, you're right, I won't talk about my cousin's talents."

Anyway, his goal had been achieved, and Wu Chengcheng glanced at the Qianqian County Lord in front of him again, and stopped talking.

The county lord of Qianqian, who was sitting in the front, waited until there was no more conversation in the back, and then he moved closer to Xiao Ji. Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, she raised her eyes to look at Wu Tianrou on the stage, and then lowered her eyelids slightly, making it impossible to see her thoughts.

When they were thinking about each other, at the end of the song, Wu Tianrou stretched her hands forward, knelt on her knees, slowly leaned back, and finally fell to the ground.

"Good!"

With the cheers of everyone, Wu Tianrou stood up, bowed to the emperor and queen, and then bowed slightly to Jin Mingchi, and then slowly walked off the stage.

With Cuiping's support, Wu Tianrou walked to the room where she was changing, and when she staggered by Liu Ruyan, she excitedly raised her hand and patted Wu Tianrou.

"You're dancing so well, haha, wait for me, I'll finish the performance soon, I'll have a drink with you in a while."

Throwing down a sentence, Liu Ruyan took the wooden sword used for the performance and walked onto the stage.

When passing by Du Rong's table, Wu Qianrou saw that Du Rong was still painting seriously, so she didn't bother her, but went to change her clothes first.

"Miss, didn't you see it, everyone's attention was attracted by you when you danced, even the emperor and queen, the eldest prince, the second prince and the prince of the gilded kingdom couldn't take their eyes off it."

While helping Wu Tianrou change clothes, Cuiping's little mouth was not idle.

"I stood aside and saw the lord and the lady, and they were all laughing from ear to ear!"

"Okay, be quiet, I don't have to let people hear it, I think we're going to brag and try to make people laugh."

With a faint smile, Wu Tianrou raised her hand and gently tapped Cui Ping's forehead.

When Wu Tianrou changed her clothes and walked out, Liu Ruyan's sword dance had already finished performing, and she was walking towards Wu Tianrou with a smile.

"Why are you changing clothes so slowly, I've finished a set of swordsmanship. By the way, go and see Du Rong's paintings, she is really good, they are simply lifelike! ”

Grabbing Wu Tianrou's wrist, Liu Ruyan strode forward.

"Oh, the painting has been handed over to the emperor. Look at it, what the emperor is holding in his hand is painted by Du Rong, your portrait! ”

Raising his hand and pointing at the emperor sitting on the throne in front of him, Liu Ruyan looked excited.

Wu Tianrou looked at Liu Ruyan's hand, and saw the chubby Du Rong standing beside the emperor and queen with a smile, the emperor was holding a piece of rice paper in his hand, and the queen and the queen were smiling together.

"Good, good! is worthy of Du Shilang's beloved daughter, and her painting skills are outstanding! This poem is also good, good, a talented girl! ”

Raising his hand and pointing to the corner of the rice paper, the emperor turned his head to look at the queen, and only after the latter smiled and nodded his head did he read it aloud.
