Chapter 68: Dance
Xiao Mingyi thought about it, and stopped thinking about eating for a while, added a few pastries to her mouth casually, and stopped eating.
The post station is some distance from the palace, and when Xiao Mingyi's carriage arrives at Fengwu Gate, the carriage outside the door has stopped a lot, and it can't be squeezed in at all.
The two officials waiting outside saw Xiao Mingyi and the others' carriage coming, and hurriedly followed the little yellow door behind them to give a few orders, and the two little yellow doors ran over and led the groom to park.
Xiao Mingyi fixed his eyes and looked at the two little yellow doors, and they were still acquaintances.
Don't you want these two little yellow doors to be placed in the carriage here, and they haven't moved their position for two years?
Xiao Mingyi and the others got out of the carriage, and the two Dafeng officials who were waiting next to them greeted them.
Jin Can exchanged a few words with the two, and the two took Xiao Mingyi and the others into the palace.
Because of the hot weather, and Qin Tianjian saw it, it was said that the bright moon was in the sky today, and the weather was very good, so the banquet was set up in the imperial garden.
By the time Xiao Mingyi arrived, the Imperial Garden was already full of people, but only the two of them had not yet arrived.
This is already a routine, Xiao Mingyi didn't care, and someone arranged himself in a front position.
But I didn't want to sit across from her, it turned out to be an acquaintance.
Zhao Ziyan!
Her fiancΓ© was also the one who personally sent the short knife into her chest.
It's finally time to meet!
Xiao Mingyi did not hide his gaze, staring at Zhao Ziyan nakedly.
Zhao Ziyan quickly discovered this gaze, and he didn't even need to look for it, he knew that Xiao Mingyi was looking at him, after all, Xiao Mingyi was so conspicuous whether he was wearing or bearing.
But this kind of temperament, he seems to have seen it in another person.
Someone he never wanted to think about again.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Ziyan finally asked: "But the princess of the Pearl of the Dian Kingdom, I am the king of Dafengxi, staring at this king like this, but what's wrong with this king?" β
Xiao Mingyi covered the killing intent in his eyes, smiled slightly, and said: "It was His Royal Highness King Xi, who made King Xi smile, but it was just an old man who looked like Mingzhu in King Xi, Mingzhu was a little stunned for a while, and I hope King Xi will not forgive me." β
An old man?
And let Princess Pearl look stunned?
Xiao Mingyi's words suddenly made everyone's faces look a little strange.
After all, Xiao Mingyi has already reached the end of the year, if it is not a relative, it is also the age of recruiting horses, it is a noble status, and it is inevitable that she will not think of spring in the boudoir, isn't this old man the childhood sweetheart of Princess Mingzhu?
Zhao Ziyan didn't know how to react for a while because of Xiao Mingyi's reply, and only said with a pretended smile on his face: "No, the princess is too worried." β
After saying that, Zhao Ziyan looked away and stopped talking to Xiao Mingyi.
After a while, the eunuch suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty, the queen has arrived." β
Everyone who was originally talking and laughing stood up and saluted, and said in a loud voice: "Greetings to Your Majesty, Niangniang, Long live Your Majesty, Long live Long live, Long live Niangniang, Niang Niang, Thousand Years Old, Thousand Years Old." β
Xiao Mingyi and others also stood up and performed the national salute.
Accepting everyone's worship, Emperor Cheng and Queen Wang sat side by side in the highest position, and then said: "All the ministers are exempt." Where are the envoys of the Dian Kingdom? β
Xiao Mingyi and the three of them got up again and said, "I have seen His Majesty Emperor Dafeng, may Your Majesty live long." β
After wishing that "the two countries will be peaceful and reconciled forever", the banquet will begin.
It is basically similar to the previous palace banquet, which is still a mutual compliment and a praise of virtue.
But it is different, more, the purpose of this palace banquet is more to show the envoys of the Dian Kingdom, that is, Xiao Mingyi and others, the strength of Dafeng's national strength.
After a song and dance, Emperor Cheng looked at Xiao Mingwu, who was already stupid, and asked: "The envoy of the Dian Kingdom is coming, I don't know if this song and dance is still satisfied?" β
Jin Can originally wanted to answer satisfactorily, but Xiao Mingwu took the lead, he remembered what Xiao Mingyi told him.
He smiled and said, "Your Majesty Emperor Dafeng, although this song and dance is wonderful, it is not the best for this prince. β
When Emperor Cheng heard this, he was a little surprised.
If he said how wonderful the dance of these dancers was, he didn't think it was.
The song and dance workshop in the palace has been going on for years, and these tricks are no matter how good-looking they are, they are tired of seeing them.
But this was originally a polite sentence, and he really didn't expect that the eldest prince of the Dian Kingdom would be so tiger and so direct.
was denied, Emperor Cheng was not annoyed, but asked with a smile: "What does the prince of Dian think is the best dance?" β
Xiao Mingwu smiled and said: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty Dafeng, Mingzhu has been proficient in everything since Xiaoqin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and above dance, he is quite accomplished. β
As soon as Xiao Mingwu's words came out, he was immediately humane: "Since this is the case, why not let Princess Mingzhu present a song, and let me wait to open my eyes." β
"yes!"
β¦β¦
With the first person, more and more people will go along with it.
Jin Can's mind was a little more, he knew that this must be ordered by Princess Mingzhu, he didn't want to stop it, but it was about the face of the Dian Kingdom, and the face still had to be enough.
So Jin Can made a face and said sharply: "Nonsense, Princess Mingzhu is the princess of my Dian Kingdom, how can she perform with you like a dancing queen, don't mention this matter again, no!" β
Xiao Mingwu, who was interrupted, was also stunned for a moment, and scolded angrily in his heart, this old horseman.
At the same time, he glanced at Xiao Mingyi and told Xiao Mingyi that it was all Jin Can, the old horseman, who was doing it, and he couldn't do anything about it.
Xiao Mingyi nodded at him and motioned for him to be calm.
After Jin Can lost his temper, although some people in Dafeng officials felt that it was inappropriate, there were still many good officials who wanted to put the face of Dian on the ground and step on it.
Ding Zhaohui, the head of the household, was one of them, he looked at Jin Can and stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Why is Lord Jin so easy to get angry, we don't mean to insult Princess Mingzhu, but I'm really curious about how the princess's dance is shocking, and I have no other intention, no other intention." β
After that, Ding Zhaohui looked at Xiao Mingyi again and said, "Princess Mingzhu, I don't know if I'm waiting, can I have the honor to see the princess dance?" β
Although Ding Zhaohui is a civil official, he has a quick temper, and he is also an old friend with his father, and his father is out on the battlefield, and he also takes care of his family.
is so unforgiving to the envoy of the Dian Kingdom, I don't know if I miss my father a little bit in my heart.
But whether it is or not, Xiao Mingyi can only say sorry to him in his heart, I'm afraid I can't give him a good face.
Her phoenix eyes raised slightly, and she said unceremoniously: "If you don't watch the dance of this palace, it is unfortunate, then this adult, sorry, you are extremely unlucky." β
