Chapter 114 Ji Qiubai dances
Outside the Su Mansion, in the carriage.
Ji Qiubai stared at the closed door for a while with an unhappy look on his face, then angrily dropped the curtain and imitated Su Yuan's words, complaining:
"I came to the Su Mansion and sat there for the whole afternoon, but I didn't expect that he would just say one word to her and leave. I'm really angry just thinking about it. And what did she mean by that word?"
"It's getting late. You're calling me to eat later. Isn't this just a way of reminding me to leave quickly? Humph! Damn Su Yuan, you're actually chasing me away!"
On the side.
Dai Yun glanced at the angry young master, moved closer, gave Ji Qiubai a meaningful look, and said slyly:
"Sir, don't be angry. Anyway, we have already met today. We should not come too often. The prince's birthday banquet will be held in a few days. According to her personality, she will definitely take the opportunity to invite Huachen students to the banquet."
"Why don't you show off your skills, such as dancing, playing the piano, and dressing up nicely? I guarantee that Miss Su will be completely fascinated by you. I'm not afraid that she will still be so cold-hearted to you."
Ji Qiubai's eyes lit up, he covered his mouth and smiled, then gave Dai Yun an appreciative look.
After shouting to the coachman to go back home, the master and his two servants gathered together and discussed the matter in whispers.
The autumn is deep and the cool breeze is gradually rising.
Nanyou Palace.
The main hall was packed.
Today is King Nanyou’s fortieth birthday.
Officials from all over the country who received invitations, wealthy gentry, and Huachen students favored by King Nanyou were all invited to attend the banquet.
There was singing and dancing in the hall, and everyone was chatting and laughing while clinking glasses, creating an atmosphere of joy and excitement.
King Nanyou and the king sat on a high platform, chatting from time to time with the guests who flattered them.
However, Ji Shian, a princess, hid in a corner and quietly opened a small picture, muttering:
"What on earth is Qiu Bai doing? He suddenly asked Le Shan to give me a piece of torn paper, saying that it was a portrait of his sweetheart, and asked me to invite her to the front row to watch the singing and dancing."
"Are you crazy? You're the one I like, but you let your sister take her to watch another man dance. You're a fool. I want to see what your future wife looks like."
As for why she is said to be his future wife.
hehe.
Her brother has a stubborn and willful temper.
Who else in the Nanyou Palace can control him?
Just by looking at this princess, the future King of Nanyou, running errands for him, you can tell this guy's status in the palace.
However, before Ji Shian finished complaining about her brother in her heart, as the paper was slowly opened, she saw a beautiful woman, which made her eyes widen in surprise.
This, this, this...
Isn’t that Song Yuezhong’s thing?
She is still Ji Qiubai's sweetheart!
Thinking of this, Ji Shian raised his head and clicked his tongue a few times, then curled his lips.
Come on, he’s an acquaintance.
Then it wouldn't be strange for her to suddenly come forward and ask for help.
Ji Shian casually folded the portrait a few times and stuffed it into his sleeve, then walked out of the corner, waved to the guests who wanted to come up and talk to him, pushed through the crowd, and started searching in the hall.
Not long after.
Her eyes lit up, and she took two quick steps to squat beside Su Yuan who was sitting at the end, pretending to meet him by chance and greet him:
"Miss Su, you are here to attend the banquet today. Come on, come on, go sit in the front row. We are old acquaintances meeting to reminisce about the past. Anyway, there is a lot of empty seats where I am. As a good friend of mine, Ji Shian, how can I let you sit at the door where people are coming and going?"
After saying that, Ji Shian didn't wait for Su Yuan to speak, he just grabbed the man's wide sleeve, walked across a long row of seats and sat down in his own seat.
Then, she slowly poured a glass of wine and handed it to Su Yuan, raised her chin, and smiled:
"Come, I'll give you a glass of wine."
Su Yuan took the white jade wine cup and brought it to his lips and took a sip. Then he lightly raised his eyelids, looked at her with a smile, and raised his eyebrows and said:
"Why are you so enthusiastic today?"
She was pulled over obediently just now, but she felt that Ji Shian's attitude was a little abnormal today.
Want to see what she's up to?
Ji Shian sighed helplessly and said frankly:
"Well, let me be frank. You know my brother Ji Qiubai, right? He was afraid that you would be bored, so he asked me to bring you here to watch the singing and dancing."
They are acquaintances, and hiding things would make people feel uncomfortable, so it’s better to just say it directly. It’s not a big deal anyway.
not to mention……
Hehe, Qiu Bai didn't tell me not to tell you!
Sure enough, after listening to Ji Shian's explanation, Su Yuan just raised his eyebrows and showed no displeasure.
She rested her head on one hand, leaning lazily on the corner of the table, nodded to Ji Shian and said:
"It's boring to sit there at the door. We're acquaintances anyway, so I'll be fine if you don't mind me sitting here."
Ji Shian shook his head, not forgetting his mission. He pointed at the dancers dancing in the center of the hall:
"What are you disgusted with? I'm so happy that you're here to talk to me. Here, sit here so you can get closer and watch more singing and dancing. You won't get bored. Look..."
Ji Shian originally wanted to guide Su Yuan to watch the water sleeve dance performed by the dancer in front of him.
Unexpectedly, she hadn't finished speaking yet.
The group of pink-clad dancers in front suddenly stopped moving and gathered in the center of the stage, standing still.
Just when Ji Shian was confused.
The original music suddenly changed into a soul-stirring piano and flute ensemble. The dancers danced with their long sleeves and countless bright red petals floated down from the second floor.
Inside the magnificent hall, the refreshing fragrance of flowers surrounded the guests, and everyone was immersed in the fragrant aroma.
Dozens of pink silk ribbons fluttered out, and in the rain of flowers, a man in red, covered with white gauze and with a red lotus flower on his forehead, descended from the sky and appeared in the center of the dancers, dancing gracefully.
The sound of the flute became more urgent, and his body danced faster and faster, his jade-like hands lingering gracefully, and his skirt fluttering.
A red dress flutters in the wind, her black hair flows down in a stream, her red shirt is like a flower, she is indescribably beautiful, elegant, noble and extraordinary.
He glanced at Su Yuan from the corner of his head and moved quietly to the woman's table.
Suddenly, she flicked her red sleeves and gave her a shy look, her eyes dancing with light, and the whole person was like a flower in the mist, or a gorgeous fairy in the moon, hazy and ethereal.
As the music came to an end, the man moved lightly back to the center of the hall, his sleeves fluttering, and it seemed as if countless petals floated down from the sky, swaying in the air, each petal carrying a wisp of lovesickness.
The petals have fallen, the song has ended, and the dance is over.
Ji Qiubai rushed to the head and bowed gracefully. His voice was clear, like the melted snow on the top of the snowy mountain, clean and slightly cool:
"Qiu Bai congratulates mother on her birthday. The long-sleeved and waist-bending dance I just performed is a birthday gift from my child to you."
The top.
King Nanyou's eyes were filled with joy. He clapped his hands twice, laughed and praised:
"Okay, okay, Qiu Bai is indeed my son. He is both filial and talented."
After that, she took a look at Ji Qiubai's clothes, waved her hand, and said with concern:
"It's almost late autumn now. Go downstairs and change your clothes before coming back. Don't catch a cold."
