"Good!" Shui Lianche was the first person to stand up and applaud.
"I've heard a long time ago that Lizhou has three beauties: beautiful women, beautiful scenery, and fine wine. The princess is the best among them. Seeing her today, I find that her reputation is well-deserved." Shui Lianche did not hesitate to praise her, and every word seemed to come from the heart.
Ji Ruzhua's expression was calm, neither happy nor sad. She bowed to Shui Lianche and said, "Your Majesty the Water Emperor, thank you for your kind words."
"The princess is being modest." Shui Lianche smiled faintly and sat back in his seat.
Ji Ruhua brought honor to the Lizhou Kingdom. Ji Xingzhi was delighted and smiled at Ji Ruhua, saying, "Ruhua, what do you want? I will give it to you."
Ji Ruhua lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before saying, "I haven't thought of anything yet. Could His Majesty keep this reward for now?"
Ji Xingzhi heard this without thinking too much and nodded, saying, "As you wish."
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. Ruhua will take her leave first." Ji Ruhua bowed to Ji Xingzhi and left.
Following Ji Ruhua, many sisters from official families came to the palace to perform. There was "High Mountains and Flowing Water" played by Chan, the daughter of the prime minister; Zhang Yuan, the daughter of the imperial censor, painted a picture of the four seasons of spring and autumn; Rong Tingwei's daughter Rong Ting played the flute music; and Wang Qianqian, the granddaughter of the emperor's tutor, also performed a dance.
All those who were qualified to perform in the palace were daughters of powerful officials in the court and had prominent status.
However, when she saw Xu Han, the daughter of General Xu, Ji Xingzhi's face changed suddenly. She was the concubine's daughter of General Xu who seduced Xiao Moyan. Logically, she was not qualified to perform in the palace. It must be that General Xu had secretly arranged this.
Xu Han is quite pretty. Compared with her married elder sister Xu Jing, she is smarter, bolder, more charming and more shameless.
Xu Han was wearing a red long skirt that showed her waist, with her two long sleeves flying in the air. Her eyes were affectionate and her face was shy. She was spinning around with affectionate eyes. The long skirt left the ground as she turned and rotated with her as the center.
Everything was originally very peaceful. Some people were tasting wine, some were eating food, and some were enjoying the dance.
Suddenly, Xu Han made a bold move. She turned around and swung her sleeves. As expected, the sleeves fell on Xiao Moyan's shoulders, and a faint fragrance came with the sleeves.
Suddenly, everyone present fell silent, and their eyes fell on Xiao Moyan and Xu Han at the same time. The hall was silent, and even the musicians who were playing music and dancing for Xu Han stopped playing.
This was a blatant attempt to seduce the Regent. Everyone present knew that Regent Xiao Moyan was not interested in women, and coupled with the recent scandal between the Regent and the Emperor, everyone couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Xu Han.
It's really a case of being too clever.
Xu Han's eyes were fixed on Xiao Moyan. He completely ignored the strange looks from everyone and approached Xiao Moyan step by step. His eyes were full of love. He stood shyly in front of Xiao Moyan's desk, leaned over and slowly approached Xiao Moyan, as if he wanted to kiss Xiao Moyan's forehead.
Xiao Moyan seemed to know nothing. He still lowered his head and looked at the jade cup on the table with an indifferent expression, with no intention of avoiding it.
Seeing Xiao Moyan lying motionless and allowing himself to be teased, Ji Xingzhi's face darkened. He stood up suddenly and dropped the wine glass in his hand with a bang, breaking into pieces in an instant!
"How dare you!" Ji Xingzhi shouted angrily, then stepped down from the throne and strode to Xiao Moyan's side. He stared at Xu Han coldly, his voice as cold as ice: "Where did you come from, you whore? How dare you seduce the emperor's uncle in public!"
