Chapter 380: Bonfire Extravaganza
Three days later, Tatsukuni ushered in the annual bonfire event.
Half of the sky is smeared by the red glow of the evening, the dazzling bonfire dances with dazzling starlight, and the festive music wafts over the luxurious palace square.
The VIP table was full of praise for the festive atmosphere.
The graceful queen smiled generously and decently, but the corner of her eyes glanced at Concubine Li, who was flattering Emperor Chen with silky eyes, and sneered in her heart.
Since the envoys of the Yun Kingdom visited, none of the concubines in the six palaces were eager to please the crown princess of the Yun Kingdom and give advice to the Chen Kingdom as a landlord.
"Concubine Li also put a lot of thought into it this time. The queen listened to the words of praise and made Emperor Chen on the side smile, "She has always had many ideas, and the palace has never organized any folk bonfire festivals, and I also feel fresh." ”
Everyone looked at the prince of Yunguo in the VIP banquet, and then they understood what a real match made in heaven, sitting at the same table with the princess of Yunguo, this pair of beautiful people is like a painting scroll of a fairy couple, which is enviable.
In the imperial garden behind the square, a joking voice came from behind him.
"Why did the county lord of Yongle come so late?"
Xia Qianwei, who was led by the female officials, slowly turned around, and saw Xia Xiang in an exotic dance skirt coming towards her, and stood still in front of her, "I thought that the county lord would not appear today, after all, the whole of Kyoto knew that Leng Qianhu tore up the marriage book, such a big humiliation, even my sister I feel embarrassed." ”
Xia Xiang had a gloating smile on her face, and now she has completely faded away from the simplicity and well-behaved that a girl should have, and her gestures are full of charm.
However, Xia Qianwei didn't seem to hear the mockery in her words, but gently raised her eyebrows and asked, "Lan Meiren is going to dance today?"
There seemed to be a little bit of incredulity in this tone, and the smile on Xia Xiang's face immediately froze.
She clearly felt that Xia Qianwei looked down on her!
Yes, as an unfavored concubine in the General's Mansion, she has been with medicine jars all day long over the years, and she has not gone to school, except for Aunt Du occasionally teaching her some female celebrities, how can she know what piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?
Fortunately, she does have extraordinary talents, this exotic dance has only been learned for two days, and she is quite good, and last night she also danced solo in front of Emperor Chen, and naturally won the favor of the saint.
"Concubine Li is willing to give her sister a chance, how can she let her down?" Xia Xiang said this, with a hint of threat in her voice.
She wanted to tell Xia Qianwei that she was not without a backer in the palace now, no, Concubine Li came to look for her not long ago, and she should have seen that she had won the favor of His Majesty, so she took the initiative to woo her.
Xia Qianwei's eyes flashed with a streamer, and she took a deep look at the dance skirt on Xia Xiang's body again, could it be ...... This is the gift that Concubine Li said she was going to give her?
"Nalan Meiren must also do her best, don't spoil Your Majesty's Yaxing. ”
Leaving such a sentence, Xia Qianwei just gradually walked away with that breezy expression.
"What is it?!Don't the county lord of Yongle think that the beauty doesn't have that ability?"
"If the slave maid had been torn up the marriage book, she would have jumped into the Jingjiang River a long time ago, how could she have such a cheeky life in the world?"
"Beauty don't have the same knowledge as her, take the lead for a while, and see what else she has to say!"
The two little palace maids behind her looked at Xia Qianwei's departing back, and immediately added oil and vinegar to Xia Xiang's ears, and the fire that she had originally arched gradually subsided.
I saw that this little face with heavy makeup immediately showed an extremely vicious expression, yes, now she is no longer the concubine who was kneaded by others in the past, she wants to see who will spoil His Majesty's Yaxing!
At this time, the corner of the lively square suddenly quieted down, and as soon as Xia Qianwei appeared, it immediately attracted countless eyes around her.
As Xia Xiang said, everyone knows about the destruction of the marriage between Leng Xia and the two families, but I am afraid that Xia Qianwei and Leng Yuhan will not get along with each other because of old age!
The nobles who used to be red in Xia Qianwei are now all happy, and they just want to wait to see her jokes, but no matter how ugly the discussion comes from all around, the girl seems to be deaf, and her cold eyes gently sweep everyone present, and there is an indescribable bearing and calmness.
As soon as Xia Rouchun, who was being touted, saw someone coming, a faint cold light immediately flashed under her eyes, and she quickly came back to her senses, but found that Wei Xuanqi beside her was looking at the beautiful girl intently.
His eyes were full of inquiry, and the corners of his mouth, which were originally cold, suddenly raised a faint arc, and then he actually raised the luminous glass in front of him, and drank the wine with his head up.
Xia Rouchun's willow eyebrows couldn't help frowning, over the years, Xuan Qi has always been drunk on important occasions, because he said that wine is easy to do bad things!
Only when he is in a good mood will he borrow wine to help him have fun.
So what does that mean, and for whom is his mood good?
Xia Rouchun is also thoughtful, and now Xia Rouxuan, as the princess of Yunguo, is tightly wrapped around the strange but familiar figure like a poisonous snake.
Until the bonfire in the center of the square suddenly heard a few strange sounds, and the flames soared into the sky and exploded into gorgeous fireworks in the air, which aroused everyone's admiration.
Then, accompanied by a mysterious and enchanting flute sound accompanied by a low drum beat, the white slender waist writhing like a water snake immediately attracted everyone's attention.
I saw several coolly dressed dancers floating barefoot, and the bells worn on the slender ankles made a pleasant sound.
At this time, Xia Qianwei, who was already seated in the women's seat, her eyes gently fell to the position of Princess Pingning opposite, looking at the other party's shocked expression, a faint smile rose at the corner of her mouth.
"What should I do, Sister Qianwei must be angry with me......" Leng Yuyao, who was sitting on the side by making an exception, mistakenly thought that Xia Qianwei was looking at her, and immediately lowered her head weakly.
My eldest brother has done such an excessive thing, if he were any one person, he would definitely not say half a word to her again in this life!
She looked dejectedly at Princess Pingning, who suddenly quieted down on the side, and her eyes flashed immediately.
"Princess?"
I saw that the princess, who was still full of interest, turned pale at this time, and her hand that was about to peel the grapes for Leng Yuyao couldn't help trembling, and the hatred in her eyes frightened the little girl into forgetting her words for a while.
Xia Xiang in the field didn't know it, and still showed herself hard, but her eyes subconsciously searched for the noble figure between the seats.
His Royal Highness the King of Youwang didn't even attend?
At this moment, there was a piercing scream from the corner, and Princess Pingning in the seat rushed forward without warning, and threw Xia Xiang in the center to the ground.
"Slut, you return my daughter-"
