Chapter 160 Performing Arts, Dare to Ask Me to Dance
The so-called banquet is nothing more than eating and drinking, and then the palace musicians and dancers present wonderful scenes to congratulate today's protagonist Ji Lan on her concubine.
The musicians and maikos in the palace are naturally of high standard. Although Ji Yunkai doesn't understand music theory or dance, he knows what sounds good and what looks good.
Today is a good day for Ji Lan. The banquet is at its climax. Everyone is surrounding Ji Lan. Ji Lan will not cause trouble for her. Ji Yunkai is also happy and quiet, holding a glass of fruit wine and talking about it.
As he drank, his eyes fell on the stage, admiring the beautiful and enchanting dancers on the stage.
Ji Yunkai didn't know that while she was admiring the beauty, others were watching her quietly, watching her every move, and watching her inadvertently reveal a rare aura of her age...
Ji Lan is one of them. It is said that today is her home court, she should be the one with infinite glory, she should be the focus of attention, but Ji Yunkai stole all the attention with one inadvertent move.
.
This feeling is really frustrating, especially before, the two of them were clearly standing together, but everyone's attention was on Ji Yunkai.
Her elaborate dressing up became a joke in front of Ji Yunkai.
She is obviously so ugly, why do some people think she is beautiful?
Is it just because of that mask?
I really want to take off the mask on her face and let everyone see the ugliness under her mask.
Ji Lan's attention always fell on Ji Yunkai uncontrollably. She had no intention of enjoying the dance on the stage. She waited until the end before she smiled, praised and rewarded.
After the dances and musicians in the palace finished their performances, the girls who were preparing to get married in each family's boudoir stood up and took the opportunity to express their congratulations to the new imperial concubine.
The girl, who is sixteen or seventeen years old, is green and tender, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has an elegant temperament. Even Princess Tao An of Prince Duan's Mansion is not inferior. She dances a congratulatory dance with a unique style that makes people unable to take their eyes away.
"Good!" After the dance, the eldest princess took the lead in cheering and praised: "Tao An's dancing skills have improved again, not bad."
As soon as the eldest princess opened her mouth, all the women in the audience echoed her, instantly stealing Ji Lan's light. Although Ji Lan didn't like it, she didn't dare to be dissatisfied with the eldest princess, let alone Princess Tao'an.
No matter it was the eldest princess or Prince Duan, she could not afford to offend them. No matter how dissatisfied she was, she would always laugh and praise them together.
Princess Tao An looked happy. She came down from the stage without sitting back. Instead, she stepped forward and thanked her: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and the eldest princess for your compliment. Tao An's dancing skills are vulgar. It would be great if they can impress both the empress and the eldest princess."
Princess Tao An had just finished dancing, her breath was still a little unsteady, her cheeks were red, her eyes were shining, and her body was gradually filled with the aura of youth.
Ji Yunkai glanced at her with envy. Of course she was not envious of Princess Tao An's dancing skills, but she envied Princess Tao An's youthful aura.
Ordinarily she is only eighteen years old now, so she is not old, but she has an old mentality. She graduated from the juvenile class and got her degree at the age of eighteen. She officially entered the navy before she was nineteen and worked hard in the military.
After six years of fighting, she couldn't get any younger at all.
Just when Ji Yunkai lamented that he was too old, he heard Princess Tao An say: "Princess Yanbei, the Imperial Concubine is your sister. Today is her happy day. You shouldn't dedicate some of your talents to congratulate the Imperial Concubine.
?”
As soon as Princess Tao An finished speaking, the eldest princess echoed: "Tao An is right, Yun Kai, your relationship with the imperial concubine is unusual, and you should really express your feelings."
When Ji Yunkai heard this, he knew that Princess Tao'an had been used as a gun again.
Looking at Princess Tao An, who had a proud face and a proud look on her face, Ji Yunkai couldn't help but shake his head. This girl is really stupid. She has been taken advantage of again and again without realizing it.
For the sake of Crown Prince Duan, she didn't care about the ignorant little girl.
"The eldest princess wants me to perform?" Ji Yunkai sat upright, folded his hands on the table, looked past Princess Tao'an, and looked at the eldest princess opposite.
"Yun Kai, it was Princess Tao An who suggested that you perform for the Imperial Concubine. I just think this suggestion is good." The eldest princess suffered a big loss at the hands of Ji Yunkai and Xiao Jiu'an. She was very afraid of these two people and was not willing to give up easily.
Dare to stand up.
"I also think it's good, Princess Yanbei, what are your intentions?" In order to increase the leverage, Ji Lan also spoke.
No one knows better than Ji Lan how much of a fool Ji Yunkai is. Although Ji Yunkai has a fiancée other than the emperor, no one takes her seriously, whether it is the emperor or the Ji family.
In Ji Mansion, Yun Kai only has the title of eldest lady. No one in Ji Mansion will teach her these things. At most, they will let her learn etiquette so as not to be embarrassed when going out.
"Haha..." Ji Yun laughed: "Concubine, what is the identity of Princess Tao'an, and what is my identity? Do I have to accept her suggestion?"
"Why, you don't want to?" Ji Lan frowned slightly, showing dissatisfaction.
She is still an imperial concubine after all, but Ji Yunkai didn't give her any face.
Ji Yunkai did not answer her words, but said: "Royal Concubine, I suggest the eldest princess dance a song for you to congratulate you on your title of concubine, and then I suggest you dance a song yourself to congratulate you on your title of concubine."
"How dare you ask me to perform a dance!" As soon as Ji Yunkai finished speaking, the eldest princess yelled violently.
An ordinary person would definitely be frightened, but Ji Yunkai didn't take the eldest princess's anger into consideration at all: "Eldest Princess, why should you be angry? I'm just a suggestion. The eldest princess shouldn't be like this, and no one is forcing you.
"
"You, huh..." The eldest princess was angry, but she just rolled up her sleeves and sulked.
Who said it? She was the one who made the suggestion first. Ji Yunkai turned against her and joined her army. There was nothing she could do about Ji Yunkai.
"Princess Yanbei, what I'm talking about now is your business, don't worry about other things." Ji Lan saw that the princess was holding back, so she had to do it herself.
"I don't want to!" Ji Yunkai simply refused.
"Why don't you want to? I don't think you can." Princess Tao An once again showed her stupid side and stupidly interrupted at this time to remind Ji Yunkai that she was the culprit.
Ji Yunkai glanced at her and said, "You should be lucky that you have a good brother."
How could Princess Tao An have the courage to challenge her in public?
Princess Tao An must have forgotten that she is no longer the eldest lady who is not valued by the Ji family. She is now Princess Yanbei. As long as she has this title, she has the rights that a princess should have, regardless of whether Xiao Jiuan likes her or not.
And if she wanted to teach a little princess who repeatedly provoked her, she didn't need to take action herself.
"What does it have to do with my brother? What we are talking about now is why you are unwilling to perform for the imperial concubine?" Princess Tao An is really stupid. If she were not stupid, she would not be used by the emperor and then the eldest princess.
The eldest princess obviously pushed Princess Tao'an ahead and slapped Ji Yunkai's face for her... (To be continued)
