What! The playboy fox is coveted by the jealous god
Chapter 71 The Cold and Tyrant Emperor's Abandoned Concubine 27
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, and Imperial Concubine are here."
"Long live the emperor, long ...
"Be flat!"
Jun Yu sat on the high seat, with the Queen Mother and Jiang Wu sitting on his left and right.
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, my dear ministers, please don't be restrained."
Although they heard Jun Yu say this, as subjects, they naturally would not really treat it as if they were at home. They still spoke and acted carefully, for fear of offending Jun Yan with one mistake.
Some young men and women looked up cautiously at the person on the high seat, because it turned out that this was their young monarch.
Some people below became more active.
Jun Yu had long been accustomed to those gazes, so he naturally pretended not to see them. Today was a festive occasion, and he just hoped that those people could behave themselves and not seek death.
"Awu, try this soup, it should suit your taste."
Jun Yu scooped out a small bowl of the sea bass soup in front of him and handed it to Jiang Wu.
Luzhu quickly took it and placed it in front of her queen.
Jiang Wu picked it up and tasted it. It tasted really good, so she unconsciously drank a few more sips, but it was really just a few more sips.
She had eaten before she came here, so she couldn't eat anything now.
Such banquets are full of undercurrents between various forces. Who would really come here just to eat something?
In order not to upset her stomach, she came here after eating her fill in advance.
Sure enough, someone started making trouble the next second!
"I am tired of watching these songs and dances. There is nothing new about them. I have a new favorite person. Let her perform a talent for the emperor today."
After Empress Dowager Xiao finished speaking, regardless of whether everyone was happy or not, she ordered the performing artists to withdraw and the dancers who had been prepared long ago to enter the stage.
Stringed music sounded, and a woman wearing a gorgeous dance costume, feathers in her hair, and a veil added a bit of mystery to her.
The slender woman slowly descended from above the dancer's head, tapping her toes lightly. The delicate anklets on her ankles made clear and melodious sounds of silver bells, and then the woman landed steadily in the center of the hall.
Under the light in the hall, the woman's complexion was whiter than snow, and her slender and soft waist was not even as thin as a hand.
The woman looked at Jun Yu at the top with her watery autumn eyes, and then danced gracefully to the beat of the music.
The woman has a graceful posture, her arms stretched out softly, her toes lightly raised, her dance skirt fluttering, and the soft sleeves in her hands seem to be injected with life, dancing freely according to the woman's will.
With a light leap, she stepped on the knee of the person next to her and leaped into the air. She swung her sleeves and instantly wrapped them around the beams. The woman danced in the air, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, her clothes fluttering, as if she were a fairy from the sky.
The dance is light and graceful, so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated.
The dance ends.
Jiang Wu was the first to receive warm applause, and then everyone who had been intoxicated by the beauty's dance finally came to their senses and praised the woman who was standing gracefully in the hall.
"Today I finally understand what the dance posture of 'raising sleeves at the sound of strings and drums, dancing like snowflakes fluttering in the wind' means. Your Majesty, this girl has presented such amazing dancing skills today, you must reward her generously."
After Jiang Wu finished praising the woman with smiling eyes, she turned to look at Jun Yu and asked for a reward on his behalf.
Empress Dowager Xiao, who was about to speak, was suddenly speechless. She glared at Jiang Wu with dissatisfaction. Jiang Wu pretended not to see it, picked up a grape and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes in satisfaction.
After glaring at Jiang Wu, Empress Dowager Xiao looked at Jun Yu with a smile and introduced the woman to him.
"This girl is my niece's distant cousin, her name is 'Xiao Yuyan'. She has come to the palace to entertain me these days. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I asked her to perform a talent to liven up the atmosphere. What does the emperor think of Yan'er's dance?"
Jun Yu did not rush to answer the Queen Mother's question. Instead, he placed a bowl of freshly peeled shrimps in front of Jiang Wu, slowly wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and then spoke quietly: "You are just pretending to be pretentious and trying to attract attention. You don't know what you are talking about."
The woman, who was originally as proud as a white crane, suddenly turned pale after hearing Jun Yu's comments. She was so ashamed that she wanted to faint on the spot.
Empress Dowager Xiao did not expect Jun Yu to be so disrespectful to her and say such excessive words.
She said dissatisfiedly: "The emperor's words are too harsh. It's just a little girl dancing. There's no need to make such a big deal. Yan'er, come forward and let your emperor cousin take a good look at you."
Under the detached gaze of Empress Dowager Xiao, Xiao Yuyan adjusted her expression and stepped forward, "Your servant Xiao Yuyan, I pay my respects to the Emperor."
Jun Yu seemed to be unable to see the other person's affectionate eyes. He naturally took Jiang Wu's hand and said distressedly:
"I haven't seen Ah Wu eat today. Is it possible that today's dishes don't suit your taste? I asked someone to call a few chefs from Jiangnan to the palace a few days ago. When it's over, I will go back with Ah Wu to taste their cooking skills."
Jiang Wu looked at Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes that were about to spit fire, and she held back her laughter, cooperating with Jun Yu's performance, "I thank the emperor."
Because she had an aunt who was the empress dowager and was a legitimate daughter, Xiao Yuyan was always the focus and the center no matter where she was. She had never been ignored as completely as she was today.
She just felt like being stripped naked and walking on the street, extremely ashamed.
He pinched his palm with his beautifully trimmed fingertips, but didn't feel any pain. His chest rose and fell violently, and he took a deep breath, telling himself to stay calm.
From the moment she promised the Queen Mother, she had no way out.
So no matter what happens today, she has to endure it. As long as she can catch that guy's eye, one day she will pay back for everything she has endured today!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuyan's pale face slowly regained its color, and she spoke softly, "At home, I often heard my father mention that the emperor is a wise ruler in a prosperous era, a gentleman of integrity, and I have admired him for a long time. Today, I am fortunate to see your holy face, and I have no regrets!"
After she finished speaking, a blush appeared on her pretty face, and the beauty's shy expression of affection was captivating.
Jiang Wu was amazed, "Wow, if this girl was in the entertainment industry, she would definitely win the Best Actress award!"
"He has a good figure, good looks, and talents. Jun Yu is a very lucky guy!"
Listening to the girl exclaiming and commenting without any jealousy in her tone, he was so angry that a breath of air built up in his chest and he looked at Jiang Wu with great dissatisfaction.
If the occasion wasn't inappropriate, he would have kissed that little mouth that only knew how to talk and irritate him to pieces! How could she still be so outspoken!
Seeing that Jun Yu had no intention of continuing the conversation, Empress Dowager Xiao had no choice but to speak again: "Yan'er, don't feel sorry. From now on, you should stay in the palace to accompany me and show filial piety to me together with your cousin."
The ministers and ladies below exchanged glances, unable to hide their shock.
Could it be that the Queen Mother wanted the Emperor to make Miss Xiao his empress? Would the Imperial Concubine agree? The Queen Mother was not afraid that the girl would enter the palace in the morning and be torn apart by the Imperial Concubine in the evening.
After all, they had long heard of their imperial concubine's reputation for being a fierce warrior!
