42. Transaction(2)

King Qi's birthday banquet was held in March, and in Lindu, it was already a warm spring. The birthday banquet is the main banquet, opened in the Wuji Hall in the palace of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, before the official banquet, all the guests who go to the banquet can wait in the small garden separated by a wall of the Wuji Palace, there are maidservants who send delicious fruit snacks, and the guests get together in twos and threes to chat.

Chu Ning had no intention of tasting any fruit snacks, she was still thinking about the agreement with Ji Chongguang. Obviously, the plan is foolproof, and if the intention bottle is used to extort a spiritual weapon from Ji Chongguang, how did it change halfway? She had even thought of a remedy if the bottle was recognized, but the big deal was to return the real thing to him, and she wouldn't use it herself anyway.

Now it's okay, she has to find medicine for Ji Chongguang to cure eye diseases, this medicine is the powder ground from the shell of the tortoise, and there is only one tortoise in the whole Lindu, which is being raised in the courtyard of the queen mother's bedroom. The whirling turtle was a congratulatory gift from the Queen Mother on her birthday in a certain year, and if she pried the shell of the turtle, she didn't know how the King of Qi and the Queen Mother would take care of herself.

Ming Instant ate the fruit heartlessly, the peel had already formed a hill at its feet, and he didn't take Chu Ning's current predicament to heart at all.

The garden is not big, and the aristocratic girls who came to the banquet were obviously divided into two circles, those who were good friends with the Xue family and the prince were all around Xue Niannian, and those who were good with the Su family were all around Su Jinyao. Only Chu Ning stood alone, which was very conspicuous.

Xue Niannian's eyes glanced over the crowd. Chu Ning glared back unceremoniously, but Xue Niannian walked over to meet her gaze, stopped in front of her, and looked her up and down a few times with contempt: "A pheasant is a pheasant, and it can't become a phoenix by inserting a few long feathers." ”

Chu Ning replied with a smile: "The two young ladies of the Xue family are really sisters, my sister married the future King of Qi, and my sister is so humble everywhere, and she is so high-spirited, which is really embarrassing." ”

Xue Niannian choked in her throat in one breath, she obviously didn't mean that, but her eyes rolled, and she didn't dwell on this issue: "I think back then, in addition to being a superb cultivator, the celestial daughter of the Su family also had one of the best dancing skills in the entire Lindu, a generation of newcomers replacing the old, and in the performance session at tonight's birthday banquet, I want to challenge this Nine Shadows Flying Immortals." ”

She has been secretly practicing at home for a long time, and originally just wanted to be a blockbuster at the birthday banquet, but she was provoked by Chu Ning's attitude of not entering, so she temporarily changed her mind and wanted to fight back against her, so that she could compete with herself without her own strength, and then make a fool of herself in public.

Chu Ning said slowly: "Okay, then look forward to Miss Xue's performance tonight, speaking of which, there has been no dancing girl in Lindu for a long time, I believe that Miss Xue will definitely be different from these vulgar fat fans." ”

"You ......" Xue Niannian almost exploded in anger, and compared her with the lowly dancing girl, she was the guest of King Qi, not here to perform.

Chu Ning saw Xue Niannian's face turn blue and white with anger, and he was secretly amused in his heart, obviously he was so uncontrollable, and he dared to come to play the law of agitation and send the opportunity to the door, and he was sorry for himself if he didn't make good use of it.

She stepped forward, frowned and looked at Xue Niannian's face carefully, Xue Niannian was furious by her, and couldn't help but ask: "What do you see, is there anything wrong with my face?" "Her makeup today was specially invited to dress up by the famous artists in the Wu Wa Pavilion in Lindu.

"It's nothing," Chu Ning smiled slightly, "I'm just looking, your face clearly says that you want to try your dancing skills with me, but you say so much in a roundabout way, don't you dare to say it directly?" ”

Xue Niannian sneered: "What don't I dare? "Born in a family of military generals, among the nobles in the entire Lindu, she is the one with the most courage.

"I think so," Chu Ning clapped his hands, "What's the point of trying out dance skills, it's better to compare than who has more guts, how about it?" ”

The nobles who were originally scattered around the two couldn't help but turn around when they heard this. The gambling battle between the Xue family and the Su family, the two most dazzling families in Lindu, can't miss this excitement no matter what.

The situation has forced Xue Niannian to respond: "How do you want to compete?" ”

Chu Ning raised his voice slightly: "The two of us each say one thing, let the other party do it, if you dare to do it and do it, you won, if you don't dare, you will naturally lose." Than not? ”

"Okay, don't regret it," Seeing that the female dependents were waiting for his reply, Xue Niannian agreed, "Let you say it first, lest you say it later, lest you say that I am bullying you with the prince's brother-in-law." ”

The corners of Chu Ning's lips curled, it was really interesting, and he didn't forget to carry the prince's brother-in-law out at this time: "The whirling turtle in the Queen Mother's palace doesn't know how old it is this year, I don't know if Miss Xue has the courage to lift its shell and bring it to me." ”

Xue Niannian also smiled, because of the in-law relationship with the prince, she often walked around the palace, although the tortoise is a baby, but in the end it is just a thing to keep and play, and afterwards she was coquettish, and it was inferred that she was young and ignorant, and she would not care too much about the queen mother. However, this time she wants Chu Ning to make an unforgivable mistake and let her die.
