Chapter 371: Making a Big Fuss
There was an uproar in the hall, and it was only at this moment that everyone understood what the phrase "rushing to the sky" in Xi Chu Yue Ling's words meant.
There are many daughters in Xichu, naturally good at martial arts and good at dancing, and the choreography in the early years was a god, there was this "Phoenix Dance Nine Days", but because this dance is too difficult, it has long been lost, even if it is the old man of Xichu, there are very few people who have seen this dance with their own eyes, and most of them are remnants of some movements on the score, but the difficulty of the action is too high, and most of them are just for people to observe.
"It's really the Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens ......" Xi Chu Yuan, who was at the bottom, looked at Xi Chu Yue Ling, who was still dancing in mid-air, and his eyes became more and more dull.
At this moment, staring at Xi Chu Yue Ling, who was shining in the sky, Xi Chu Lu Ning gritted his teeth even more, "How can she dance like the Phoenix Dance for Nine Days?" ”
The empress in the palace looked a little excited, she grabbed the hand of the queen beside her, looked at Xichu Yue Ling in mid-air, her eyes were dyed with a little pride, "Ah Yue, you see, Ling Er has even reproduced such a rare dance as the Phoenix Dance for Nine Days!" ”
The queen on the side also showed a look of relief, and her eyes were a little moist, "Really...... Our Ling'er has grown up. ”
In the entire hall, the most calm may be the only one who is sitting on the top of the very conspicuous Ming Xiu, just when everyone is focusing on Xi Chu Yue Ling on the eaves, only Ming Xiu is looking at the plain white figure standing quietly in the hall, his face is indifferent, silent.
After a while, the sound of the flute gradually stopped, and Hongling was put down again by Xi Chu Yueling, she hung on top of Hongling and fell to the ground, pulling Chu Nian to bow silently to the empress above.
The atmosphere was silent for a while, and then there was a burst of enthusiastic applause in the entire hall.
The empress at the top looked at Xichu Yue Ling in front of her with admiration, "Okay, very good, Ling'er, not only has you made a slight improvement in Wen Taowu this year, but now even the Phoenix Dance Nine Days has reappeared, I am very relieved." ”
This remark seems to have established the position of the prince of Western Chu Yueling, not to mention anything else, with the empress's increasing appreciation for Western Chu Yueling, this position of prince seems to be easily snatched by others.
Just when Xi Chu Yue Ling was accepting all the praise in the hall, Xi Chu Yuan on the side was trembling with anger.
Why, obviously she works harder than Xichu Yueling, obviously she is more suitable for the position of prince than Xichu Yueling, why can she be appreciated by the mother emperor, and even the crown prince Mingxiu is on her side?
Why, the dancing sword she carefully prepared only won a few words, but Xi Chuyue Lingfei won so much praise from the mother emperor?
Why...... has attracted attention since childhood, and it will always be Xichu Yueling?
She Xichu Yuan, where is she worse than Xichu Yueling?
Xi Chu Yuan stood in place, looking coldly at Xi Chu Yue Ling, who was receiving praise in front of her, and bit her lower lip, at this time, her eyes finally fell on the plain white figure standing quietly beside Xi Chu Yue Ling.
At this moment, Chu Nian was holding a jade flute behind her, her face was indifferent, as if she had no sense of existence at all, but at this moment, she felt an inexplicable hot gaze fall on her.
Frowning, Chu Nian turned around and looked in the direction from which the fiery gaze came, and saw Xi Chuyuan standing quietly in place, facing Chu Nian's watery eyes, neither dodging nor dodging.
Feeling the inexplicable resentment coming out of Xi Chuyuan's eyes, Chu Nian frowned slightly, and immediately smiled apologetically at Xi Chuyuan, then turned around, walked out of the hall, and changed his clothes.
Ming Xiu, who had been paying attention to Chu Nian, also noticed this scene, he knew that she didn't want to attract too much attention, so he thought of changing the eunuch dress back as soon as possible when everyone's attention was on Xi Chu Yueling, but at this time, Chu Nian just walked out of the palace gate, and a figure hurriedly followed behind him, and there was also a small figure, and now everyone in the hall complimented Xi Chu Yueling, who had won the praise of the empress, but no one noticed the sneaky three.
Ming Xiu, who was on the top, frowned slightly, but his body did not move, and he still sat firmly in place, sure enough, not long after, Xichu Yueling came to toast, Ming Xiu praised the face a few words, and established a close relationship between the two princes in front of everyone.
And at the same time, outside the temple.
Chu Nian just walked out of the main hall, and the secret guards waiting at the gate of the main hall suddenly rushed up, they looked at Chu Nian, who was sweating profusely in front of them, and said curiously: "Lady, what is going on inside, why is it so lively?" How did you get tired like this? ”
Speaking is the dark three, at this moment, several secret guards explained that they looked at Chu Nian with a tired face, Chu Nian couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's just a musical instrument, I'm going to change my clothes." ”
Dark San looked at Chu Nian suspiciously, "The lady is the best at musical instruments, but how can she be tired like this if she performs a musical instrument?" I'm afraid that the lady has done something earth-shattering, right? ”
But seeing Chu Nian shook his head slightly, he let go of a few secret guards and walked towards the corridor on the side, "It's not me, it's Xi Chu Yueling, I'm just doing a small favor, you guys are waiting here, I'll go change my clothes." ”
"Lady, we ......"
"His Highness is still in the temple, what if he summons you for something, and you are no more?"
Several secret guards were stopped by Chu Nian, and stood in place with each other's faces, at this point, Chu Nian had already walked away.
At this moment, most of the people in the palace gathered in the main hall to watch the excitement, and even the palace people who passed by in a hurry were only two or three, Chu Nian walked along an unmanned path to the dressing room, and suddenly noticed that something seemed to be wrong behind him.
She frowned slightly, and slowed down quietly, and at this point, a corner suddenly appeared in front of her, and she dodged and hid in the darkness.
After a while, a figure appeared here, she stood still for a while in the place where Chu Nian disappeared, and was about to follow a road to chase in, at this stall, suddenly her neck was cold, and she heard a voice from behind her.
"The Three Princesses? Why are you following me? ”
Xi Chu Yuan originally held a short blade in his hand, but after realizing that the person behind him was the person he had been following, he immediately hid the short blade in his sleeve and said sharply: "If you want to change your clothes, I will change too, you dog slave dare to do something to me in my territory in Xi Chu?" ”
Chu Nian behind her raised her eyebrows slightly, the three princesses also need to change their clothes sneakily? Still holding a weapon in your hand? When she Chu Nian and her are generally indistinguishable from right and wrong?
But after a little silence, Chu Nian still let go of the dagger between Xi Chuyuan's neck, and when Xi Chuyuan turned around and looked at her vigilantly, she smiled and said, "Your Highness, if I remember correctly, Your Highness's dressing room is on another road." ”
Seeing that when the little eunuch was talking to her, there was still a trace of a sarcastic smile on her face, Xi Chuyuan's face was blue and white for a while, she snorted coldly, and then said: "It's just a mistake to remember the way, besides, this entire palace is my home, where do I want to go, what do I have to do with you?" ”
Hearing Xi Chuyuan's words so radical, Chu Nian was not annoyed, she laughed shallowly, and then said: "Where Your Highness wants to go naturally has nothing to do with me, but since Your Highness knows that I am a eunuch, and you want to follow me to the dressing room, isn't it coveting my beauty?" But Your Highness, my body can't do it......"
"You...... Shameless! It seemed that he didn't expect Chu Nian to say such a bold word, Xi Chuyuan's eyes widened and he looked at the person in front of him with a red face, as if he was going to swallow the person who was still smiling innocently and harmlessly.
Chu Nian nodded, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I'm afraid the small one won't be able to meet His Highness's needs, can the small one go over first?" ”
"You...... You dog minion, it's all because of you that Xichu Yueling won me, and now you dare to be so rude to me, see if I don't ......"
Xi Chuyuan raised his arm suddenly, and what he was holding in his hand was the short blade that she had hidden, and at this moment, the short blade was emitting cold light, and it was about to pierce into Chu Nian's Heavenly Spirit Gai.
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded.
"Stop!" A slender figure walked out from the corner, it was Ming Xiu, who was belated, at this moment, the face that was already very cold and resolute was a little annoyed, looking at the short blade standing on top of Chu Nian's head, Ming Xiu raised a hand, and with a flick of it, he saw a stone smashed on Xi Chu Yuan's wrist.
Xi Chu Yuan's wrist hurt, and the short blade in his hand suddenly fell, Chu Nian took a step back calmly, and the short blade landed and made a harsh sound.
Soon, an ink-colored figure blocked in front of Chu Nian, and at this moment, there was an inexplicable murderous aura exuding from that figure, making Chu Nian couldn't help but tremble.
I heard Ming Xiu's voice coming from the front, "The Third Imperial Daughter, I came all the way to your Xichu as a guest, this is your Xichu's hospitality?" ”
At this moment, the guards on patrol discovered the movement here, and had already reported to the empress who was in the main hall, and when the empress and others hurried over, what they saw was a short blade on the ground, a little eunuch who was hiding behind Ming Xiu in fear, and a prince Ming Xiu whose face was so cold that people couldn't help but tremble.
Looking at Xi Chuyuan who was looking at the little eunuch hiding behind Ming Xiu with a resentful face, everyone with long eyes could understand what had happened.
The empress first took a closer look at the little eunuch who was shivering behind Ming Xiu, and found that although he seemed to be a little scared, he was also safe and sound, so she finally put her mind at ease and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What's the matter?" ”
At this moment, the empress was still followed by a group of ministers, as well as the queen, Xichu Yueling, the second princess and the fourth princess, and a Xichu Luning who came in a hurry.
As soon as he arrived, Xichu Lu Ning stood in front of the empress and walked to Ming Xiu's side, "Yo, what is Your Highness doing here?" ”
Ming Xiu pursed his thin lips and didn't speak, still exuding cold air all over his body, and he didn't want to enter the living.
Chu Nian, who was hiding behind Ming Xiu, pretended to be scared and said, "This ...... The little one came to change clothes, and the three princesses suddenly rushed out, saying that because the little one helped the eldest princess, she failed, so she wanted to kill the little one to vent her anger. ”
When these words fell, the empress and the empress, as well as the ministers behind them, were all talking, "There is such a thing? ”
"How could the Three Princesses be so confused......
"It's just a small eunuch, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too much of a fuss......"
