Chapter 31: Out of the limelight
Yu Xuanji lowered her eyes and plucked the strings, seeing that the jade sound in the hall was ready, her eyes shone away, and the curling piano sound came out slowly like gurgling water in an instant.
At this time, she opened her lips and sang softly: "Dancing like a frightening dragon." Rong Yao autumn chrysanthemum, Huamao spring pine. It seems to be like a light cloud covering the moon, fluttering like the snow of the wind. Looking at it from afar, it is as bright as the sun rising in the morning glow. Forced to observe it, the green waves are scorching. ”
The moment her singing sounded, it was like fairy music for three days, and everyone was amazed by the singing of the third lady of this jade mansion, and they were intoxicated, as if there was such a gorgeous beauty dancing in front of them.
Yu Wanyin glanced at her, only to find that no one was watching her dance at all, but they were all addicted to Yu Xuanji's singing and couldn't extricate themselves.
Yu Xuanji, don't you feel good about seeing me like this? For this reason, Yu Wanyin's eyes became more and more dark, and she gritted her teeth with hatred for Yu Xuanji in her heart.
After finishing the song, Yu Xuanji glanced at the people who were all fascinated by her singing, and the afterglow casually swept over Yu Wanyin's black and black face, and the corners of her mouth hooked slightly, Yu Wanyin, this is the fate of your own clever calculations, and she got up slowly.
"The courtiers wish the Queen Mother a blessing to the sky, and a long life with the sky. ”
Yu Xuanji and Yu Wanyin knelt down in the hall and said in unison.
"What a fluttering dragon, graceful like a dragon, come to reward. Empress Dowager Zhao couldn't close her mouth with a smile, looking at Yu Xuanji was more and more pleasing to the eye, she used to think why the first emperor wanted to marry her to Ji'er, but now I think about it, the first emperor has a unique eye, this girl is sweet-mouthed, and she can deal with any scene indifferently.
And she is bold enough, if she were someone else, I am afraid that she would have been scared and begged for mercy, and she had the courage to be so fearless.
Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Zhao glanced at Mo Chuye quietly, and couldn't help but secretly shake her head in regret. thought that if this girl was Ye'er's concubine, she would definitely be a powerful hand, but this girl had a marriage contract with Ji'er.
"The courtiers thank the Empress Dowager for the reward. Yu Xuanji and Yu Wanyin said at the same time.
Yu Xuanji laughed again, but there was a knife hidden in the smile, which was thrilling, and Yu Wanyin was also laughing, but she was a little more unwilling and jealous.
This time, Yu Xuanji can be said to be out of the limelight, which has aroused the jealousy of all the ladies of the family.
Looking at Yu Xuanji, who was in high spirits for a while, Yu Wanrou's heart was full of jealousy, obviously all this should be her Yu Wanrou's. and she found that the emperor's gaze always fell on Yu Xuanji's body, and when she wanted to verify it, it was in vain.
This made her wonder if she was dazzled, or did Mo Chuye notice that she was paying attention to him? Thinking of this, Yu Wanrou couldn't help but be taken aback by her thoughts.
After thinking about it, she shook her head, impossible, Mo Chuye is a woman that the idle prince can't even look down on, how could Mo Chuye, as the pride of the sky, like a woman like Yu Xuanji?
Looking at her so different, Mo Chuyun's heart swelled with a different throbbing for the first time.
"The mourning family remembers that the second girl of the Jade Mansion has not yet presented a gift!" said the Empress Dowager Zhao suddenly, her eyes swept down, as if searching for Yu Wanrou's figure.
"Rou'er. Seeing that Yu Wanrou seemed to be thinking about something, she didn't even hear the Queen Mother calling her, so Mo Chuyun quickly turned her with her elbow.
"Huh?" Yu Wanrou came back to her senses, and still looked at Mo Chuyun blankly, but this move made Empress Dowager Zhao very unhappy.
"The queen mother asked you about the birthday gift you prepared?" Mo Chuyun glanced at the gloomy face of the Empress Dowager Zhao, and couldn't help but lower his voice and reminded.
Yu Wanrou's eyelids jumped suddenly, and while she was secretly annoyed and distracted in her heart, she already knelt in the center of the hall.
"Please forgive the queen mother, the courtiers prepared a song for the queen mother, but with the third sister and the fourth sister Zhuyu in front, the courtiers hesitated to present this dance, and then they shook their heads for a while. ”
Yu Wanrou explained in an orderly manner, frowning tactfully from time to time, seeing that Empress Dowager Zhao's face was finally a little better, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
When these words were released, the people present looked at Yu Xuanji, Yu Wanrou, and Yu Wanyin's eyes a little weird, of course, they were more holding the posture of watching the play, the birthday gift of the Queen Mother prepared by the three sisters was so coincidental?
"Oh, you've got a dance for you, too?" Empress Dowager Zhao smiled.
"Yes. Yu Wan replied softly. Now she is in a dilemma, she can't take out the Phoenix Lintian Diagram, and the Amazing Dance has the preconceived notions of Yu Xuanji and Yu Wanyin, even if her dancing posture is several times better than Yu Wanyin, it is all for nothing.
Weighing left and right, she can only bite the bullet.
"It just so happens that the mourning family hasn't seen enough, you go down and prepare. Empress Dowager Zhao smiled meaningfully.
Haven't seen enough? I haven't seen it at all! Everyone's eyes fell on Yu Xuanji's body. A shadow passed through Yu Wanyin's eyes unconsciously.
"Yes. ”
With Zhuyu in front, it is naturally difficult for Yu Wanrou to turn over, no matter how beautiful she dances, it will be useless.
This birthday banquet, in addition to completely subverting the original waste image of Yu Xuanji, also made the three words of Yu Xuanji a new topic of conversation in the mouths of the young ladies of the family.
Of course, what we are talking about is no longer how ridiculous she is for Mo Chu, how shameless she is, but envy and jealousy of her courage in the face of danger, and the favor of the Queen Mother.
"Today's third sister has to make those young ladies of the family red-eyed. Yu Wanyin walked all the way to Yu Xuanji's side, and said excitedly, looking happy for Yu Xuanji.
"Aren't you tired?" Yu Xuanji paused, turned her head and looked at her coldly.
"I'm not tired, it's fun to bounce. Yu Wanyin frowned for a moment, and then smiled innocently.
"You know what I'm talking about. Yu Xuanji squinted her eyes, and said without being salty or light, she had already said it so clearly, she didn't believe that Yu Wanyin was as simple as she seemed and couldn't understand what she meant.
In fact, compared to Yu Wanrou, who shows love and hatred, the simple Yu Wanyin in front of her is the strongest opponent.
When the words fell, Yu Xuanji coldly glanced at Yu Wanyin, who was aggrieved and weeping, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, she just saw how long Yu Wanyin could pretend.
After a while, she stepped up her steps and walked towards the carriage of the Jade Mansion, and Ruyi glanced at Yu Wanyin, who was stunned in place, and saw Yu Wanyin wiping her tears very aggrieved. After casually comforting a few words, Ruyi hurriedly followed the footsteps of her own young lady.
Looking at the carriage in the distance, Yu Wanyin wiped her tears, her jaw raised slightly, and the corners of her mouth gradually revealed a strange arc, of course she understood the meaning of Yu Xuanji's words, but as long as she didn't tear this layer of window paper, she Yu Wanyin still had a chance to turn around.
A hunter has extreme patience for the sake of his prey, which is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Yu Wanyin had just returned to the Jade Mansion, and before she could take a breath, Yu Wanrou angrily found the door. She knew that Yu Wanrou would definitely come for today's dance, but she didn't expect it to be so soon.
As soon as Yu Wanrou entered the door, she slapped Yu Wanyin in the face without saying anything.
"Slut. ”
Yu Wanyin covered her cheeks that were beaten painfully, and said with rain: "Second sister, my sister doesn't know that you have also prepared a shocking dance, if you know, my sister will definitely not dare to trespass." ”
Chu Chu is pitiful, full of innocence, and anyone who sees it will feel pity. But under this appearance, there is a strange and unpredictable heart.
"I don't know, are you so easy to deceive as Miss Ben?" Yu Wanrou laughed angrily.
"My sister knows that no matter what she says, the second sister will not believe it, if the second sister thinks yes, yes! Yu Wanyin wiped her tears and took retreat as the way to advance.
"Hmph, with your appearance, you won't dare to give you ten guts. Yu Wanrou laughed mockingly, how could Yu Wanyin, a fool, think so much, all this must have been planned by Yu Xuanji's slut.
After the words fell, he flicked his sleeves and turned around and walked out.
After Yu Wanrou left, Yu Wanyin raised her head unhurriedly, and her eyes were gradually covered by shadows, Yu Wanrou was really stupid as a pig, and just a few words could provoke her. But third sister, third sister, you are out of the limelight today, since this is the case, it is natural to pay the necessary price. Thinking of this, her eyes suddenly became fierce.
At the same time, Yuqin Temple.
Facing Yu Wanrou's surging momentum, Yu Xuanji seemed calm.
"Yu Xuanji, you know that I am going to present a shocking dance at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, but you deliberately offer it in advance, which is simply ill-intentioned. Yu Wanrou scolded, her eyes full of anger and eager to tear her apart.
Slowly swallowed the last bite of pastry, raised the cup and drank a sip of tea, before raising her eyes to look at the angry Yu Wanrou, and said with a smile: "Isn't the second sister preparing to present the Phoenix Lintian Map?"
Hearing this, Yu Wanrou's heart jumped, how did she know that the Phoenix Lintian Diagram was there for her? Could it be that this was Yu Xuanji's trick from the beginning! Thinking of this, Yu Wanrou's mind suddenly became transparent.
"You calculated it from the beginning!" Yu Wan's soft eyes widened, a little incredible, since Yu Xuanji had been planning since four days ago.
"It's just a plan, since I've fallen into a trap as bait, naturally I can't return in vain. Yu Xuanji said with a smile. It's just that the smile has no warmth.
Slut, she really wants to tear her face and make her laugh again, Yu Wanrou thought viciously in her heart.
"The phoenix feathers on the phoenix map are stained with blood, if you offer it today, what should the Queen Mother do?" Yu Xuanji smiled deeply.
Feng Yu was stained with blood, and if it was detected, the consequences would naturally be unimaginable. Seeing that Yu Wanrou's expression changed, she immediately said: "Speaking of which, the second sister should thank her sister, if there is no sister, I'm afraid my sister will never be able to return to this jade mansion!"
Thank you Yu Xuanji? She heard her right! If it weren't for her, why would she be in such a situation? In previous years, she Yu Wanrou was the leader, but this year she was out of the limelight by Yu Xuanji, and her heart was naturally extremely unwilling.
"Yu Xuanji, you don't put gold on your own face, I'm afraid you wish I died quickly!" Yu Wanrou sneered, mocking to the fullest.
"Hey, the second sister doesn't know how to read minds, how do you know what your sister is thinking!" Yu Xuanji first pretended to be surprised, and then suddenly smiled in realization.
On the fact that anger does not pay for life, she Yu Xuanji has always been a leader.
"My sister is very powerful, and my sister can't compare, but since my sister wants my sister to die soon, why do I want to help?" Yu Wanrou said coldly. Her eyes stared directly at Yu Xuanji's smiling eyes, trying to see through what she was thinking, but her pupils were pitch black, and her thoughts never left a trace.
"Because someone wants to borrow a knife, I don't want to lend it to her. Yu Xuan's unruly voice, with a smile on her face, made people unable to see through.
Her words meant something, Yu Wanrou was not stupid, she naturally knew who she wanted to borrow the knife, but Yu Wanyin's idiot could plan for such a long time, I was afraid that it was Yu Xuanji who deliberately sowed discord. For a while, Yu Wanrou was skeptical of Yu Xuanji's words.
