Chapter 57: The Supreme Reward
It was precisely this scene that Nangong Yu saw in his eyes, and a cold light suddenly flashed in his deep black eyes, and then he recovered as before and continued to drink.
A stand has been set up in the center of the banquet, and the female dependents of the birthday performance slowly entered, and the wonderful dancing, delicate face, unique and novel performance, and melodious piano sound made everyone present dazzled and couldn't take their eyes off it.
Immediately afterwards, there were bursts of noisy applause and discussions, and then after watching the performance, the daughters came to the stage one by one with joy on their faces, and then walked off the stand with a red face and a shy face.
The performance of the ladies at this birthday banquet is the first time in the world, in the past, the ladies were just raised in the deep boudoir attic, and now they not only show up, but also stand in front of everyone, countless pairs of eyes staring at themselves, of course, if you can be favored by which prince and prince, please give marriage, it is the best, if not, it is just a flash in the pan.
Shui Lianyue three pots of wine into the abdomen, cheeks slightly red, eyelids will be charming progress undoubtedly, with her amount of wine, not to mention a pot, even a jar of wine is not a problem, and now, she is full of thoughts about how to cancel the marriage contract, where can she take care of anything else.
"Miss, don't drink anymore, you're a little drunk", Hongying saw that Miss was a little out of shape in her demeanor, and couldn't help but approach Shui Lianyue worriedly and said.
Shui Lianyue shook her head slightly, sighed lightly, and stared at the woman in the stands, but saw that the woman was swaying and dancing, while holding a brush and writing between the rice paper, the corners of her mouth gradually hooked up a sneer, as if muttering: "I didn't expect Shui Duyao to have this kind of ability, but unfortunately, I have no intention of inserting willows, and I don't want willows to be in the shade", as soon as the words fell, the wine glass in his hand was drunk.
"Miss, you're really drunk, I don't know if Miss is going to perform later, if it's ugly, it's troublesome again", Hongying snatched Shui Lianyue's wine glass, and said a little anxiously.
"Trouble? Are you afraid of trouble? Hehe, in my dictionary, I have never been afraid of this word", Shui Lianyue shook her head, turned her head to look at Hongying, frowned but did not speak again.
Hongying was inexplicably looked at by Shui Lianyue, I don't know what happened, her scalp was a little numb, and seeing that the wine glass in her hand was taken away by Miss again, she had to sigh, helpless, who made her Miss, even if Miss was drunk, she also knew that no matter what happened, Miss knew it.
What's more, how could she not understand why Miss was drunk, although at first she thought Miss was crazy.
"Well, the show character dance is really good, the dance posture and the seal character are integrated, you can see that it is really very attentive, reward", the queen mother was very happy, and waved her hand to the palace maid beside her.
Shui Duyao stopped a song, bowed respectfully, waved his hand to the palace maids on both sides, and a zhang long rice paper was supported by the palace maids on both sides, only to see that it was written: Blessing is like the East China Sea, longevity and Tianqi eight big characters, the words are full of show wisdom, and the pen is not at all different because of the dancing posture, but is strong and does not lose the feminine demeanor.
The Queen Mother was even more smiling, and even Nangong Ling couldn't help but praise it, "It's really hard, the daughter of the Shui family really lives up to her name, and she will pass on my will, and give a pair of red coral bracelets and a pair of lotus beads."
As soon as Nangong Ling's words fell, the little eunuch behind him immediately led the palace maid to the treasury to choose, and after a while, the palace maid came with a tray.
Red coral is hard to find in the Jinxi Dynasty, and lotus beads are even rarer, and it can be rewarded like this, which shows that Shui Duyao's table is indeed wonderful.
Shui Duyao borrowed the reward, and after thanking her, her face was full of pride, so many young women, although they were also rewarded, but they were just some of the daughter's extremely ordinary jewelry, but she was the only one who was rewarded with red coral and lotus beads, and she was naturally one level higher than her.
"Hey, Miss Shui Jia stays", just as Shui Duyao stepped down, the imperial concubine Situ Wan suddenly called Shui Duyao, "I don't know if there can be a performance in that Shui Lianyue"?
Situ Wan said a word, and actually asked Shui Duyao, she naturally knew the inside story, her mother had already ordered the whole house to keep quiet about the performance, Shui Lianyue didn't go out, and there was no little sister of the official eunuch's family, how could she know about it, I thought that at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, Shui Lianyue would be deflated, but I didn't want the imperial concubine to ask about her
