The Evil Emperor's Beloved
Chapter 30: Birthday Banquet in the Palace - 2
As soon as they sat down, Jing Yuehan and Jing Yueshan came over and sat in the row behind Jing Yueli. Although martial arts were respected in Xuanyue Continent, in the small Xuanyuan Kingdom, there was no reason for illegitimate children to be on an equal footing with legitimate children.
"Your elder sister is back, you better be careful." Si Mo Wen whispered in her ear.
Of course she knew that Jing Yuehan would definitely cause some trouble this time when she came back, otherwise she would not be herself. But she was not made of clay, so it was best not to fall into her hands, otherwise... she didn't mind dealing with her herself.
Xuanyuan Chen and Xuanyuan Xu arrived one after another. Leng Tianchang was still standing next to Xuanyuan Chen, but what was rare today was that he took off his red shirt.
Jing Yueli pursed her lips and smiled secretly.
Xuanyuan Chen also saw her and nodded to her.
When Xuanyuan Xu saw Xuanyuan Chen greeting Jing Yueli, he clenched his fists in his sleeves, as if someone had coveted something of his.
He didn't even think about the fact that Jing Yueli had never belonged to anyone.
Next to Xuanyuan Xu stood the seventh princess Xuanyuan Yao, whom Jing Yueli didn't even bother to look at. She turned her eyes away, picked up the wine glass on the table and started drinking.
After a while, the inner court heard the voice of the eunuchs announcing, "Your Majesty has arrived, the Queen has arrived, the Imperial Concubine has arrived, the Virtuous Concubine has arrived, the Shu Concubine has arrived..."
Everyone stood up and saluted, Jing Yueli was no exception. Although she hated these red tapes, she had to bow her head because she was under someone's roof.
Alas, it’s another day when Jing Yueli wants to become stronger.
After everyone was seated, Emperor Xuanyuan looked around and finally his eyes fell on Jing Yueli. He looked her up and down and then looked away.
"My dear ministers, please don't be restrained. Today is my birthday. I will celebrate with you all and have fun together."
As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass on the table in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. It can be seen that Emperor Xuanyuan is in a good mood today.
The people below also raised their glasses one after another and said their own blessings.
"I wish your majesty a happy birthday and a long and blessed life."
"I wish your majesty good luck..."
...
...
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty..."
After a round of congratulations, they began to toast each other.
Jing Yueli sipped her wine, her eyes wandering casually around the court.
This is such a good opportunity, with people who are rarely seen gathered together. She must seize the opportunity to see whether they are human or ghosts, and whether they are good or evil to the current Jing family.
The dancers also began to dance gracefully in the venue as the music sounded.
As soon as the dance was over, some people started offering to dance.
Emperor Xuanyuan also agreed. Seeing this, other families also started to have ideas. Emperor Xuanyuan would not take concubines, but the princes had not yet married.
One after another, almost all the girls with special talents came up to show off their skills.
At this time, an inopportune voice sounded, "Father, everyone has performed dances and songs to the best of their ability on your birthday today, but Sister Jing has not yet~~."
"Father, do you think we should invite her to come up and perform as well... We also want to see Sister Jing's dancing moves! Hehe..."
This person is none other than Emperor Xuanyuan's sixth princess, Xuanyuan Wan.
Emperor Xuanyuan has only two princesses, besides Xuanyuan Yao, she is the only one. She looks so delicate and gentle, no one can find any fault with what she just said.
Jing Yueli didn't expect that she wanted to eat the melon, but ended up eating the melon on herself.
Does she have a grudge against the princess or against all the women in the imperial capital?
Emperor Xuanyuan also looked at her, which meant that she was required to perform.
Seeing Jing Yueli straightening her dress and about to stand up, Si Mowen beside her grabbed her and signaled to her with her eyes, telling her not to be impulsive.
Her best friend understands her well and is afraid that she might do something inappropriate on a day like today.
I guess some people think so too, wondering what else Jing Yueli can do besides practicing?
Yes, the original Jing Yueli did only know how to practice, but the body now is not the original Jing Yueli. She is the ruler of an ancient martial arts family from the 23rd century. There is nothing she doesn't need to learn since she was a child, and there is no occasion that does not require her to socialize and settle.
They will be disappointed today, and some people are destined not to achieve their wishes.
She slowly stood up, left her seat, and came to the center of the stage where dancers were performing.
Today she wore a peach pink outfit to match her birthday.
Jing Yueli leaned slightly towards Emperor Xuanyuan who was sitting on the throne, then walked towards the place where music was being played, took a guqin from the musician, and placed it in the middle of the place.
Then she placed her hands on the strings, stroking them with both hands. After two breaths, her ten fingers began to fly on the strings, and a song of Ambush from All Sides poured out.
When the music started, everyone at the banquet hall forgot what they were doing and listened quietly to Jing Yueli playing.
The piano music shows the tense, fierce and cruel war scenes, creating a variety of ancient battlefields, making people feel as if they are on the scene, with soldiers ambushed on all sides, surrounded by enemies, fighting bloody battles for their lives, and scenes of swords and sabers.
As Jing Yueli's melody changed, everyone's hearts were lifted, sometimes excited, sometimes sad, and sometimes confused.
After the song ended, everyone was still unable to pull themselves away from the music for a long time. Jing Yueli did not disturb them and just sat there quietly.
Suddenly, a round of applause rang out, followed by countless rounds of applause.
Jing Yueli then stood up and left the field.
Needless to say, Jing Yueli's performance was a success.
Xuanyuan Chen's eyes followed the movement of the peach-pink figure, with a smile on his lips. He didn't expect that she had such a talent, which was unexpected and also brought him a surprise.
The first round of applause came from him.
There was another person in the field who was also moved by this. To be precise, it should be a family, that is the Leng family, known as the God of War.
Only they themselves knew what they would face once they were on the battlefield. Jing Yueli's move today seemed to have made them meet a soulmate.
Of course, if you say Jing Yueli chose this song today for no purpose, she herself would not believe it. She needs more help and willing help so that they can achieve mutual success in the future!
Back at her seat, Si Mowen chirped like a little bird, asking questions here and there. She was happy for her good friend who was so brilliant.
Some were happy, while others were unhappy, such as the Sixth Princess Xuanyuan Wan who suggested that she perform, and the two sisters from the second room who were sitting behind her.
You don't need to look back to know, because there are two pairs of eyes behind her, and they have never left her since she left the stage. Hehehe...
There was also a pair of complicated eyes looking towards her. When Jing Yueli raised her head to look, the person withdrew his gaze.
After three rounds of drinks, it was finally time for the highlight of the day: presenting a gift to Emperor Xuanyuan!
The first people to give gifts are the concubines, princes and princesses. No one will compete with them for this.
When Xuanyuan Xu came forward, as Jing Yueli expected, he presented the Body Tempering Pill that he had auctioned at the Treasure Pavilion. However, he did not receive the praise from Emperor Xuanyuan as he had expected.
Of course, how could Emperor Xuanyuan, who had seen the Marrow Cleansing Pill, be excited about a Body Tempering Pill!
