Chapter 8: In the spotlight
"So let's prepare." Concubine Xian naturally agreed, she wanted everyone to know what kind of outstanding person her daughter-in-law was, besides, when the time came, it would reach Bo Qingluo's ears, and she would have a good impression of her emperor at that time.
Gong Manyu lowered his head and chuckled, Yan Yiran in the previous life had Mu Zhiruo in her heart, she was the dog under the skirt who came and went as soon as she called, and it was still like this in this life, but no matter how loyal you Yan Yiran was, no matter how favored the virtuous concubine was to match the two, not to mention the qualifications of the five princes, not to mention Feng Chaoge, even Yan Yiran couldn't compare.
Mu Zhiruo's ambition has always been the back position, the mother of the world!
But there is one thing they think of together, the Gong Man language in the previous life or the Gong Man language in this life, they are not very proficient in these qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the ones she is proficient in can only be used by Yan Yiran, but she can never win the hearts of men.
What about using poison, using medicine, and scheming for a lifetime.
Mu Zhiruo in her previous life laughed at her, "How about learning when you have an empty body?" What about being good at using poison and having excellent medical skills? It's still lost to her harmless face! ”
Men are originally animals of desire, and they like women who are dependent on birds, and when they get power and the world, they prefer women who are obedient to themselves, rather than women who are stained with the smell of blood and stingers.
The corners of his mouth were outlined and he smiled, Gong Manyu picked up the darkness under his eyes and did not make a sound.
And Gong Manyu's every move was silently taken into Feng Chaoge's eyes, and a hint of interest flashed at the corner of her mouth, this girl actually responded silently, could it be that there are other skills besides the kung fu of the silver needle? Interesting.
Girl, don't let Prince Ben disappoint you!
The talent shows are rising one after another, Miss Shen of the Prime Minister's Mansion plays the zither smoothly, Miss Li of the University Scholar Li Mansion plays the pipa in one hand and half-covers, playing like a song and crying, and Miss Xu's family of Xu attracts colorful butterflies to inhabit; Miss Luo of the General's Mansion is dressed in a red suit, dancing with a sword with no hands, and she is sassy and heroic. Compete for beauty, each show its elegance, not inferior to the flowers in the garden.
The women who can step into the palace are not simple people, they have been full of scriptures and talents since they were children.
If you want to divide a winner here, you can't do anything too ordinary, you must be amazing and outstanding.
Yan Yiran looked at Gong Manyu sitting in the audience motionless, and the corners of her mouth were stained with a hint of sarcasm, this woman is really just a vase, how can she be compared with Ruo'er, she simply doesn't know whether she is alive or dead.
"Now it's the turn of Miss Gong Jia, is this what you need to prepare?" Yan Yi's spearhead was directed at Gong Manyu.
Mu Zhiruo is naturally the finale, finally.
Therefore, it is good that Gong Manyu can arrange for the second place to play in the end.
Gong Manyu picked up the honey wine in the cup without hurrying, drank it slowly, and said, "Please Sister Mu perform first." ”
The word Sister Mu made Mu Zhiruo's face change, this Gong Manyu was so rampant when she was two years older than herself, but now she put up with her for a while, presumably she definitely wanted to delay time, and there was no talent show that she could do at all.
Gong Manyu's excuse felt that she was afraid of making a fool of herself in the eyes of others, so she retreated. The fifth prince smiled even more contemptuously, and turned to look at Mu Zhiruo with burning eyes.
"Sister Ruo'er, it's better to go first," Yan Yiran looked at Mu Zhiruo's eyes, and they were about to soften into water.
"Then Ruo'er will be ugly." Mu Zhiruo glanced at her personal maid Cuiyu, her red lips hooked, and Lianbu moved into the arena lightly, but her eyes caught a glimpse of Yan Yiyan looking at herself gently, her cheeks flushed, and she felt a little more confident in her heart.
And Feng Chaoge never looked at her from beginning to end, hmph, he actually stood up for Gong Manyu's slut, then she definitely wanted him to see who was the best in the world!
Everyone who was originally disgusted suddenly became curious, this is the first beauty in the capital who has won the top spot in three years, what is she going to perform this time to suppress the eighteen skills of the previous young ladies.
Cuiyu brought a handful of zither and put it on the jade platform, Mu Zhiruo whispered a few words to Cuiyu, Cuiyu nodded, and then walked down to Yan Yiyan under the stage.
Yan Yiyan's hand holding the wine glass was slightly stunned, and as soon as he raised his head, he looked at Mu Zhiruo's shy and timid eyes.
"The Third Prince, I and Miss Jia heard that the Three Princes' piano skills are superb, and I want to ask the Three Princes to accompany me to a song."
"Oh? I don't know what kind of song Miss Mu wants Xiao Wang to play? Yan Yiran didn't shirk it, the beauty came to the door automatically, how could there be any reason to push it away, even if Yan Yiran and Concubine Xian were already angry, but he still didn't want to give up this opportunity, this woman's identity and Prince Heng Boqingluo County Lord were in the relationship, so he was not allowed to let go of such an opportunity.
Seeing that Yan Yiyan actually responded to herself, Mu Zhiruo's little face was flushed, and she had a little more affection for Yan Yiyan at the moment.
No matter how much Yan Yiran is not favored, she still has a very good impression of such a handsome and attractive man, for her, the kind of man who comes over like Yan Yiran with a blank eye, or Yan Yiran, who is cold and arrogant, but who cares about her everywhere is attractive.
However, Feng Chaoge belongs to the kind of person who doesn't even look at her, and such a man with no one in his eyes makes Mu Zhiruo experience unprecedented frustration, making him Minggong himself the woman who holds the moon with stars.
"Phoenix Seeking Phoenix!" Mu Zhiruo's voice was very light, like a spirit magpie chirping, and that guqin turned out to be the Xuanxi qin made of the world-famous phoenix bone!
Yan's eyes flashed slightly, this qin has been left behind in the rumors for a long time, and I never thought that Mu Zhiruo would have a good guqin at a young age.
But after a while, Mu Zhiruo changed into a red long-sleeved skirt, slowly walked into the stage, her beautiful eyes flowed, Yan Yi understood, stretched out her hand to stroke the piano, the sound of the piano was clear and clear, like a mountain spring, as misty as a fairy sound, only a song "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix", slowly came out.
With the sound of the piano, Mu Zhiruo twisted her waist, and the end of the long sleeves was stained with ink, and everyone was suddenly stunned, and then saw a few maids holding a three-meter-long scroll slowly spreading, and then saw Mu Zhiruo dancing while drawing a landscape map with the ink on the long sleeves, and at the end of the small mouth with a brush in her mouth, she showed off a hairpin on the spot, which was beautiful and delicate, and added a poem to today's flower appreciation banquet.
When the last touch of music faded away, everyone was still immersed in the gentle sound of the piano, unable to extricate themselves. Mu Zhiruo smiled tactfully, and said to the virtuous concubine: "Auntie, Ruo'er is ugly." ”
Suddenly, the applause was driven by Yan Yiran and resounded throughout the imperial garden.
In this way, Mu Zhiruo stood on the stage, all eyes were on her, and she covered up all the beauties by herself, and she was in the limelight!
