Chapter 40 This king will tell you what it means to be afraid
"Tenth brother, are you envious? With our tenth brother's talent and appearance, what kind of woman are you looking for?" Qin Yunhong joked calmly.
The tenth prince smiled and said nothing. He was still very happy to see the harmony in the fourth brother's family. However, he had not forgotten what Xia Zibing said to him. What was going on here?
Everyone was talking about their own affairs, and the Yuehua Palace was filled with laughter and joy.
"The Emperor has arrived! The Queen has arrived! King Yongling has arrived!"
Following the palace slave's loud shout, a group of people came over in a mighty manner, followed by the palace maids.
Suddenly, the Yuehua Palace was silent. It was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard. Until the three people walked up to sit high, and all the civil and military officials knelt down. They shouted three times for long live and three times for a thousand lives.
Xia Zibing suddenly understood why everyone said that the country is picturesque and heroes are vying for the throne. Sit high and accept the congratulations of hundreds of officials. This kind of majesty is really worthy of many heroes.
"Pingshen!"
In the high hall, a deep voice clearly reached everyone's ears.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
All the civil and military officials and their families, all well-trained, sang in unison.
"Everyone must know that King Yongling is away from home all year round, traveling around the country for my cold night. It is rare for him to return to the court today! I will personally host a banquet to wash away the dust of King Yongling. My dear friends, please take a seat."
Afterwards, under the emperor's instructions, all the officials took their seats one after another.
"Today, I would like to invite all the talented ladies from Leng Ye Kingdom to show off their talents," the queen said softly.
At the beginning of the banquet, it was a little welcome dance. After it ended, the famous talented ladies of Leng Ye Kingdom showed off their talents one after another.
In ancient times, apart from music, chess, calligraphy, painting and dancing, there were no new things to see. The owner of the original body knew these things, which was even more boring.
Back then, Yun Qiang was a famous talented girl in Leng Ye Kingdom. Because of her father's order, she married her current father. But the world didn't expect that Leng Ye's most talented girl would eventually raise such a useless daughter.
But no one knew that her talent, Xia Zibing, even if all the talented women present today combined, were no match for her. Just when Xia Zibing felt bored, something new suddenly happened.
Xia Yueying came on stage with two ribbons, wearing a crisp green skirt. With all the smoke and powder, her already delicate face had a bit of beauty. But Xia Zibing didn't expect that she and Xia Yueqing would fight to the death that day. It only took two days.
, dared to show off here. Moreover, he completed every difficult action again and again.
The nimble figure made it seem that the boring music, chess, calligraphy and painting in front of her were all attracted. The proud Xia Yueying danced even harder for a while. As soon as she jumped over, she actually went up a step. Less than ten years away from King Yongling
Dancing on the steps. But what makes Xia Zibing funny is that King Yongling has not raised his head to look at Xia Yueying.
It can be seen that Xia Yueying was unwilling. She approached King Yongling step by step, but did not get a response from King Yongling. However, she only saw Xia Yueying's face change slightly, and then she was full of smile. She hung the ribbon on King Yongling.
The beautiful red-lipped smile on King Ling's body was as bright as a flower. He got closer to King Yongling little by little.
Xia Yueying has always felt good and has no sense of shame. She must get what she wants. She didn't even think about it, and the daughters of the families below all chewed their silver teeth into pieces. Xia Jingwen was also deeply sorry for her.
She sweated a lot, but Xia Yueying didn't notice it at all.
King Yongling felt that his patience had reached the limit, and he slapped away the obstacles in front of him with one hand without any scruples.
With a sound of "Ah!", Xia Yueying's petite body was thrown down by King Yongling like a dog. There was a loud "crash" below, and a certain petite body fell to the ground. Her buttocks, arms and
There were many bruises from the fall. Xia Zibing almost spit out a mouthful of water. She just endured it.
And below, all the talented women almost laughed out loud.
Qin Haotian's face was instantly covered with frost: "Hold on! Xia Jingwen, how did you train your daughter? Why are you so shameless!"
Qin Haotian roared angrily, and a cup fell violently to the ground. The sound echoed throughout the Yuehua Palace.
"I deserve to die! I know my guilt."
Xia Jingwen crawled forward and kowtowed violently. Damn it! Why is this beast so insignificant?
"Father, today is a cleansing banquet prepared for King Yongling. There is no need to argue with an ignorant little girl and disturb King Yongling's elegance." Xia Zibing stood up and said.
The Xia family is her natal family after all. If she, a daughter, doesn't say a few words to her father, it will indeed have a bad reputation from the outside. Obviously, she needs to give Xia Jingwen some face.
Qin Haotian's anger subsided slightly: "Get out of here, don't let me see your daughter again!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xia Jingwen quickly kowtowed and thanked him.
Xia Zibing sneaked out while no one was paying attention. Smelling the fresh air outside, she swept away all her worries. She hummed a tune by herself.
"If you have talent, if you don't go to the Yuehua Hall to perform, who will you sing for here?"
Behind, a deep voice sounded.
Xia Zibing looked sideways and realized that it was Helian Mo Xiao standing beside her with a tall and straight figure, hands behind his hands.
"..."
Xia Zibing was speechless, glanced sideways at Helian Mo Xiao, and walked straight back to Yuehua Palace.
"What! Are you so afraid of me that you don't even dare to talk to me?" Helian Mo Xiao curled up into a smile.
Xia Zibing turned around and looked at Helian Moxiao with incredible eyes: "Afraid? Excuse me, how do you write the word "fear"?"
The words were calm and gentle. A woman like Xia Zibing, who has been training with the devil since she was born, had forgotten the meaning of the word "fear" many years ago.
Helian Mo Xiao frowned, with a smile on his lips: "I have never seen a woman like you before! Do you really not know how to be afraid? Well, I will tell you slowly."
That's all! An unusual expression shines in his deep eyes.
Xia Zibing walked away without wanting to get too involved with this man. It was not because he was afraid, but because he felt bored.
Yuehua Hall
The singing and dancing continued as usual, and Xia Zibing sat down calmly.
"Princess, what did you do when you went out just now?"
Qin Yunhong asked curiously.
"Just going out to get some fresh air."
Xia Zibing explained simply. She knew that Qin Yunhong had designed the play today. She was afraid that if Xia Zibing ran away, no one would be an actor, right? Haha, he wouldn't be disappointed.
Just as Xia Zibing was thinking about it, Yuehua Hall suddenly lost all sound. There was no one on the stage. Just like this, they looked at each other but did not dare to make a sound.
For a long time, Qin Haotian couldn't sit still.
"Whose turn is it to perform next?" Qin Haotian asked the palace slave beside him loudly.
Only then did the stunned father-in-law react, picked up the book in his hand, and flipped through it randomly.
"Your Majesty, it's the turn of the thirteenth princess." After a moment, the father-in-law said slowly.
Everyone looked at Qin Yuyan's location in unison.
Qin Haotian also raised his eyes to look at the first row of lower seats, and saw Qin Yuyan with her eyebrows lowered. One hand was on the table, and the other hand was involuntarily holding a grape. Seeing the miserable state of the grape,
