Chapter 29 Little guard, where to escape? (29)
After the banquet began, there were first singing and dancing performances prepared by the palace, and then it was time for the ministers and their families to perform the program.
In this kind of thing, they are all rushing to the forefront, because if they can attract the emperor's attention, it will be of great benefit to their future career and future wealth.
However, the performances are all about piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and sword dance. Although it is wonderful, it lacks some new ideas in the end.
Just when Mu Chen was in a state of interest, Mu Yao spoke, "Your Majesty, I have learned a new trick recently, so I can perform it."
"Oh? I wonder what tricks the emperor learned?" Mu Chen felt a little excited when he heard this.
"It's a big change, but I need someone to cooperate." After saying that, Mu Yao's eyes swept to the side, as if she was looking for who she was looking for to cooperate with her.
At this moment, a scream immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone looked at it. It was Zhao Miaomiao. She stood up from her seat, reached out and quickly brushed the water on her clothes, and the palace maid standing next to her immediately knelt down.
"I am slid for a moment, and I hope the prince will forgive me." The palace maid seemed extremely scared, and her body was trembling constantly.
But in places where everyone could not see, there was no fear on her face.
Before Zhao Miaomiao attacked the palace maid, Mu Yao said first: "The prince's concubine stood up. I must be very interested in my trick."
Zhao Miaomiao was stunned on the spot, but because she was stunned for a while, she completely lost the opportunity to refuse.
"Then you can cooperate with the emperor's sister." Mu Chen said to Zhao Miaomiao.
He finalized the matter with just one sentence, and there was no chance of refusal.
Even if Zhao Miaomiao was reluctant, she would not dare to refute the emperor's words. She reluctantly maintained her expression and responded with a respectful attitude, "Yes."
Soon, the props for the performance were carried up, and Zhao Miaomiao had no choice but to walk over.
Mu Yao opened the cabinet door, turned to look at Zhao Miaomiao, "Go in."
Zhao Miaomiao looked at the big cabinet in front of her that could accommodate someone, and looked in with a vigilant look. It looked like an ordinary cabinet, nothing wrong with it.
She was worried that her nervousness would relax a little, and she stepped into the cabinet.
Mu Yao performed this trick according to the steps of becoming a living person, and received cheers and praise.
Zhao Miaomiao also breathed a sigh of relief, but just as she raised her foot and was about to go back to her seat, she heard Mu Yao's words.
"Since Your Majesty likes it so much, I will perform another trick."
As he said that, he ignored Zhao Miaomiao and said to the palace servant behind him: "Prepare the things up."
The palace ladies moved the cabinet as fast as possible and then moved another box up.
Mu Yao pointed to the box and said with a smile: "This time the trick is to cut the living person with a box."
While Mu Yao was talking, she turned her head and looked at Zhao Miaomiao. She deliberately used a living person who was no danger to trick Zhao Miaomiao over.
The next thing is the highlight.
Although Mu Yao's eyes were smiling, Zhao Miaomiao was shocked when she looked at it, and she felt a little furry.
As soon as the words were finished, discussions rang out around him.
"Cut the living person? What kind of trick is this? I've never seen it before?"
"Cutting a living person in a box is to lock the person in a box and cut it with a knife, right? It sounds so scary."
"Look at the table, there are so many long knives there. How many knives do you need to cut? If this is not cut well, it will be broken."
"Shut up, stop talking." The person next to him immediately stopped the man and continued talking.
Then he turned to look at Mu Yao and looked at Mu Yao's expression. Seeing that Mu Yao's face had not changed, he felt relieved.
Although the discussions were low, Zhao Miaomiao could also vaguely hear them. She turned to see the long swords placed on the table next to her.
The blades of those long swords were shining coldly in the sun, which was intimidating just to look at them, and they didn't dare to think about what these swords would look like if they were cut to her later.
Zhao Miaomiao's hands hanging on both sides tightly grabbed the fabric of the clothes, and fear spread from the bottom of her heart, sweeping all her thoughts.
Just as she was hesitating whether to say no, Mu Yao said with a smile in a voice that only two people could hear.
"Zhao Miaomiao, you have figured it out. Your Majesty is in high spirits at this time. If you refute Your Majesty's interest, even if Your Majesty will not deal with you in front of others at this time, what about the man's descendant?"
"At that time, because you are alone in the entire Duan Palace, do you think Duan and Duan will spare you lightly?" Mu Yao's soft words were full of threats.
But this threat was just on Zhao Miaomiao's life gate, forcing her to surrender.
Zhao Miaomiao looked at Mu Yao in front of her, thinking that this was at the banquet. Even if Mu Yao hates her, she would not be able to attack her at this time.
Thinking of this, her fear retreated a lot.
Seeing that Zhao Miaomiao became honest, Mu Yao smiled with satisfaction, then opened the box and said to Zhao Miaomiao: "Come up."
Zhao Miaomiao slowly lay in the box, Mu Yao closed the box and fastened it, then walked to the table next to it, and picked up a long knife from it.
Mu Yao walked back to the box with a long knife, deliberately shaking the long knife in front of Zhao Miaomiao, constantly aggravating her fear.
Then, under Zhao Miaomiao's gaze, he inserted the long knife straight down from the box bit by bit.
Although Zhao Miaomiao was ready, when she really watched the long knife penetrate down little by little, she was still so scared that she almost screamed.
Her breathing was completely held at this moment, and her whole body was stiff because of fear, and her body was constantly shaking.
Her hands were tightly clamped together, and her nails pierced into the soft palms to cause pain, but at this time, Zhao Miaomiao was all over the long knife, and she didn't care about the pain in the palm of her palms at all.
When Mu Yao let go of her hand, the string tense in Zhao Miaomiao's mind was released. She breathed heavily, calming down the fear just now.
Her face was pale, her forehead was covered with a layer of fine cold sweat, and her underwear was soaked in cold sweat, and she was pressed against her body, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.
After inserting a knife, Mu Yao stood up and moved aside so that others could see the box better.
When others really watched the long knife pass through the box with their own eyes, without any blood flowing out, they were all amazed.
Mu Yao inserted all the long swords into the same way, and then she picked up the last long sword and walked to Zhao Miaomiao.
Mu Yao looked at Zhao Miaomiao with her eyes down, and suddenly curled her lips and smiled, and a bright smile appeared on her face. This should have been a pleasing scene.
But under such circumstances, Zhao Miaomiao was a little helpless and scared by Mu Yao's sudden smile.
