Volume 1 Chapter 66 The Flying Butterfly
Although the wine is bitter, there are still so many people who love to drink it, not because they like its taste, but because they like the feeling that after getting drunk, people forget the world and forget all their troubles.
I don't know when, Zuo Qingqing has finished performing, and there was a burst of applause from the audience, mixed with a lot of applause.
The Seven Princes didn't know why, and when they saw everyone like this, they also wanted to applaud with everyone, but then saw that Sister Yu did not applaud, so they also stopped what they were doing.
Chu Xinrou saw that Chu Yu didn't applaud, so she glanced at her and said, "Why didn't Sister Yu applaud?" ”
"What does it have to do with you?" , Chu Yu said lightly, but choked Chu Xinrou.
She just doesn't want to applaud Zuo Qingqing, so what? Regardless of her framing in her previous life, just the rumors in this life, she will not let her go.
After the dance, Zuo Qingqing listened to the cheers from the audience with enjoyment.
"Qing'er, does this dance have a name?" , the queen asked kindly, and she was quite happy to see her.
Zuo Qingqing's eyes flashed, the queen mother actually called him so kindly, and it seemed that she was very satisfied with her performance. So Zuo Qingqing smiled sweetly and said, "Back to the queen, this is a dance choreographed by the courtiers, called Jinghong." ”
"Good name! What a shock! There are many rewards. The emperor spoke loudly, and his tone was full of joy.
"A thrilling dance, Qing'er is really a good talent, and this palace really didn't see the wrong person." , the queen pun intended.
After hearing this, Chu Yu only felt that the queen's words meant something. This is provoking her and saying that her queen is powerful, since she Chu Yu doesn't look down on the prince, then the prince doesn't have to be her, Zuo Qingqing is much better looking than her Chu Yu.....
"The queen is ridiculous! Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Queen! The courtiers are just offering ugliness. Having said that, the corners of Zuo Qingqing's mouth were almost to his ears.
The queen smiled, "You kid is modest. Okay, you can step back first, so that everyone can appreciate the talents of the other nobles. ”
"Yes." , Zuo Qingqing got out of the ring respectfully.
Chu Yu felt that Zuo Qingqing seemed to glance at her intentionally or unintentionally, perhaps thinking about what idea to frame her in his heart.
However, Chu Yu is not afraid. Although she has abandoned the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting for a long time, she does not mean that she will not. If Zuo Qingqing wants to see her make a fool of herself, then she may be disappointed. Even if she Chu Yu didn't prepare anything, she could still cope with it.
Perhaps remembering that in her previous life, she practiced dance hard and worked hard to make him smile, Chu Yu's hand holding the teacup couldn't help but clench.
In her previous life, she didn't feel that what she was doing was to please her, she felt that as his wife, she should find some fun for her husband. Although the maids who waited for her at the beginning said that the prince doted on her so much, even if she didn't know anything, he would still love her. But Chu Yu didn't think so, she felt that if she didn't know anything all the time, then he would definitely get tired of her. Therefore, she practiced dancing all the time, and practiced every day until her clothes were soaked and she fell asleep..... Although her piano skills were excellent in her previous life, she felt that the sound of the piano was not as pleasing as the dancing after all.
Now that she thinks about it, she feels that her previous self was really a little stupid, no, very stupid.
If a man really likes you, how can he bear to watch his beloved you suffer this senseless suffering.
Chu Yu's eyes paused, and he didn't wake up until the teacup in his hand was poured out and soaked in the back of his hand.
The Seventh Prince noticed Chu Yu's movements, and only felt that she seemed to be very different today. For example, she now seems to have a sad aura all over her body.
I don't know how many noble girls went up in turn in the ring, some are performing piano skills, some are performing calligraphy and painting, some are performing dance, some are performing drumming, anyway, there are all kinds of them. It's just that Chu Yudu felt bored again after taking a few looks.
"Sister Yu doesn't seem to be very optimistic about the talents of these sisters." , Chu Xinrou next to him said softly.
Chu Yu smiled and didn't look at her, "How can my sister see it?" Sister, I think that all the sisters on the stage are all talented, sister, I sigh to myself, I am ashamed. ”
Chu Xinrou chuckled lowly, and then thought in her heart, this Chu Yu has been studying art abroad for ten years, how can it be that his talent is not good? It's better not to fall for her tricks.
So, Chu Xinrou said, "It's my sister's clumsiness, please forgive my little sister's rudeness." However, my sister's words are serious, my sister has studied art for many years, how can she not be as good as everyone on stage? ”
Chu Yu smiled faintly, did she think that the art she learned was these qin dances? Amusing.
"My sister doesn't know, sister, I have been studying art for many years, but I have been learning for ten years because I have not been good at learning art and cannot become a teacher. Compared with the sisters on the stage, I am really ashamed of my sister. ”
Looking at Chu Yu's sincere eyes, Chu Xinrou actually felt that what Chu Yu said was a little credible. However, Chu Xinrou didn't believe her words so easily.
Although she usually doesn't have much contact with Chu Yu, the information instilled in her by her mother made her think that Chu Yu is a very scheming person, so her words are not to be believed.
"Why does my sister have to belittle herself so much? has studied art for many years, no matter how bad it is, it should be able to be on the stage. ”
Chu Yu smiled, is she implying that she is also going to be on stage?
"My sister really overestimated me." , Chu Yu sighed lightly.
Chu Xinrou smiled and said, "Sister, don't be so modest, if you compare all the nobles on the stage later, you won't be able to say it." ”
"Who said I was going to go on stage?"
"Sister doesn't know that these noble girls who have not yet come out of the cabinet are all going to come to power. I'm afraid this can't be done by my sister. Chu Xinrou pretended to be surprised and said.
Chu Yu frowned, when did he have this rule, he had never been like this in his previous life.
And why didn't her mother tell her? Could it be that her mother thinks she knows?
"Sister Xu has not been in the capital for ten years, and I don't know the rules of this palace banquet."
"But the grandmother just said that a noble girl who is willing can go up, but I don't have a will, sister." , Chu Yu suddenly remembered something, and said with a smile.
Chu Xinrou Xu was exposed to the lie, and her face was embarrassed.
Chu Yu couldn't figure it out, did this Chu Xinrou think she was deaf? Why did she think she hadn't heard what Mama said?
However, she has not been in Chu Mansion for ten years, and she has not had much contact with Chu Xinrou, why does this Chu Xinrou seem to be full of hostility to her? Isn't that what Aunt Lin said behind her back? Chu Yu felt that this was the most likely.
"Maybe my sister remembered it wrong." , Chu Xinrou paused and explained.
Chu Yu smiled lightly, the meaning was unknown.
However, this Chu Xinrou reminded her, as a noble girl, after the door, she must be deeply concerned by some people, even if she is unwilling to go on stage, but some people are afraid that they don't want to do what she wants....
Chu Yu inadvertently looked in the direction of Zuo Qingqing, but just saw her looking straight over, with a shallow provocative smile on the corner of her mouth. Chu Yu smiled faintly and quickly shifted his gaze. Now in Chu Yu's opinion, Zuo Qingqing's tricks are just some girl's petty things.
The sound of silk and bamboo music sounded leisurely, and it was another dancer on the stage.
Chu Yu looked at the figure, and a trace of understanding flashed in his heart, wasn't that the woman who followed Zuo Qingqing before?
I saw that this woman was dressed in a plain and elegant, with several butterflies of different colors tattooed on her beige gauze dress, and she jumped and jumped, as if there were several butterflies lingering and flying on her body, which made people look at it intently. is a little smarter than Zuo Qingqing's dress. Chu Yu's eyes flashed slightly.
Although this woman's dancing posture is not as light as Zuo Qingqing's, it has a unique style and is outstanding.
Zuo Qingqing, who was not far away, saw that this Shen Qingli was even more dazzling than her, and a trace of jealousy and displeasure flashed in her eyes, she didn't know that Shen Qingli still had such a measure from this slut. It seems that she underestimated her before.
There is no doubt that Shen Qingli's performance won thunderous applause and appreciation from everyone in the palace.
Even the Seventh Prince looked surprised, "Sister Yu, there are so many butterflies on that sister, it's so beautiful." ”
Chu Yu smiled when he heard this, "Fool, that's the embroidery on her clothes." ”
The Seventh Prince seemed to understand, "Oh." Then he tilted his head and asked, "Sister Yu, will you go up too?" He pointed to the ring.
Chu Yu smiled faintly and shook her head, and then she saw the Seventh Prince's slightly disappointed eyes.
Chu Yu chuckled and straightened his head. Children just like to watch the excitement of the people around them.
The woman had finally finished a dance. I saw her stop and saluted respectfully to the emperor and the queen, "Courtier Shen Qingli, dance for the queen, and wish the queen eternal youth." ”
"Good! Very good! This dance is very pleasing to the eye and rewarding! Let's go down. The queen smiled, her face full of joy.
"Yes!" After saying that, Shen Qingli slowly walked off the stage, his body was light.
Naturally, she also gained the favor of a group of men.
It turned out that she was Shen Qingli, no wonder she felt familiar. Looking at the direction in which Shen Qingli returned, Chu Yu had a hint of clarity in his heart.
It turned out that the ladies of the Shen Mansion were sitting there, no wonder Fang Cai had never seen it, the ring of the performance was a bit high, and from Chu Yu's side, it was difficult to get a glimpse of the whole picture of the ring. However, this Shen Xiang Shen Xun actually sat alone and did not sit with the female dependents of the family, which made Chu Yu feel a little surprised.
Because the ring was blocked in front, Chu Yu sat up straight and saw the appearance of those people behind the ring, and sure enough, she saw Shen Yanjun, the daughter of the Shen Mansion, lowering her eyebrows and not knowing what she was thinking. If she remembers correctly, she has never performed on stage.
