My Funny Consort Chapter 55 Public Dance

On this day, those who were able to enter the palace all displayed a different ident.i.ty, and this year, this was the first time Qian Jiujiu was partic.i.p.ating in such a banquet.

When the carriage arrived at the palace gates, it stopped. Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao got off the carriage and naturally, Qian Jiujiu walked in.

The place for the banquet was in the imperial garden. The rows and rows of lanterns lit up the entire imperial garden, and when Mu Yexiao and his wife went in, they would naturally go to the imperial harem to rest.

At this time, the Emperor, Empress Qing Guifei and the others were all together. Mu Yexiao and the others naturally went up to pay their respects.

He chuckled as he looked at them, "Everyone get up. Since everyone is here, let's leave together. Today is Princess Xiao's first time partic.i.p.ating in the Mid-Autumn Festival, so we have to watch a good show."

Qian Jiujiu bowed once again. "Your daughter-in-law understands."

The group walked towards the imperial flower garden. Just as they arrived, they heard the eunuch shout in a sharp voice, "The emperor and empress have arrived! The empress have arrived!"

"Xiao Prince has arrived, Princess Xiao has arrived."

The moment the emperor entered, he immediately ascended to the highest platform and sat down. The ministers all knelt down. "Your majesty, long live and long live, long live and long live."

Qian Jiujiu looked at the group of people kneeling down, and suddenly felt curious in her heart, just what does the emperor feel? It must be great to have so many people kneeling before him.

It was obvious that the Emperor was still in a good mood tonight. He laughed and said, "All of you officials, rise. Everyone, take your seats."

"Thank you, your majesty."

After everyone thanked him, they all stood up and sat in their respective seats. It was then that they realized that the Xiao Prince and the Lord of the Xiao Prince tonight were very close to the Emperor.

This caused the ministers to feel very surprised. Previously, when Xiao Prince Lord's leg was uninjured, he might become a great treasure, which was why the Emperor doted on him.

Why is it that even now, Xiao Prince's legs are crippled, and the Emperor still dotes on him so much, even to the point of doting on him so much even to Princess Xiao.

He actually allowed her to sit so close to the Emperor. Thinking about it, he was prepared to re-evaluate how he treated the Princess Xiao.

Qian Jiujiu did not know that, for the sake of acting, she had been asked to sit here tonight. It was a completely unexpected surprise that the ministers below would have so many thoughts.

Seeing that everyone had already sat down, the emperor looked at them and said, "This year is yet another year of fruitful harvest. My Great Zhou Country has good weather and is blessed by the heavens."

Hearing the emperor's words, everyone nodded their heads. After the banquet had begun, they all began discussing among themselves. The empress looked at the emperor. "Your majesty, shouldn't we arrange for singing and dancing?"

The emperor naturally nodded. "Then let's begin."

The empress glanced at the eunuch and started to make the arrangements. Actually, this was the way the palace's dinner was every year: eating, admiring the moon, watching the singing and dancing. When Qian Jiujiu first started, she felt it was rather fresh.

This banquet was similar to the banquet in her previous life. In her previous life, there were ten people at the table, while this banquet was held by one person. Some people were seated at the back.

Qian Jiujiu could not help but twitch the corner of her mouth, luckily there were no TV phones or such in the ancient times, hence she had less short-sighted eyes, if not, the people sitting in the last row would not have been able to do so.

I'm afraid I can't even see the emperor's face anymore. It's really hard for these people to have good eyesight and hearing.

Actually, how could Qian Jiujiu have known that those sitting in the last row wouldn't be able to hear what the emperor was saying. It was just that, since it was a corner, no one would care about it.

After all, entering the palace was a chance for these people to show their face! At this time, the empty s.p.a.ce in the middle of the imperial garden was already beginning to show some performances.

Qian Jiujiu naturally knew that the person who a.s.sa.s.sinated them would not come out right from the start, so she was very careful with the first dance.

The feeling of being grabbed made even Qian Jiujiu feel that it wasn't easy for them to survive. At some point, their waists would be broken and she looked at their waists.

Looking at her waist, it was clearly a small waist, but why did she have the feeling of a water barrel waist? Mu Yexiao felt Qian Jiujiu's movements and glanced at him.

"Jiu Er, what's wrong?"

Qian Jiujiu shook her head: "I'm fine, I just feel that their waists are really thin, they're really pretty."

Mu Yexiao scoffed, "Where's it going to look good from? Jiu Er was still the prettiest. I like you. "

Although Qian Jiujiu was very satisfied upon hearing this, he still rolled her eyes at Mu Yexiao. Seeing the situation, Mu Yexiao could not help but be puzzled and look at Qian Jiujiu.

"Jiu Er likes that kind of slender waist huh? Do you know how difficult it is to be so slender, by nature? "

Qian Jiujiu thought that Mu Yexiao was laughing at her after hearing what she said, but she was actually shocked after hearing what Mu Yexiao had said afterwards.

"The dancers who can be selected to enter the palace are naturally the best of the best. This willow tree's slender waist is also one of the conditions that must be chosen. But do you know how these dancers live? "

Qian Jiujiu shook her head: "Could it be that there's a difference?"

Mu Yexiao laughed twice: "Of course it's different. Once this dancer is selected, she will eat petals everyday and practice dancing everyday to maintain her figure."

"If you let others admire that beauty, and the flower petal eats for a long time, it will cause a woman to lose the right to be a mother. So, Jiu Er, don't do anything rash for the sake of that slender waist. "

Hearing this, Qian Jiujiu immediately understood, the reason why Mu Yexiao explained in such detail was actually because he was afraid that she would mess around for the sake of having such a narrow waist.

Qian Jiujiu curled her lips: "I'm not stupid, furthermore, although my waist is good, I know that the women you guys are looking for still depend on their figure."

"The big round b.u.t.t is still the first choice. I was right. "

Mu Yexiao almost vomited blood when he heard Qian Jiujiu discuss the big problem with him. He coughed twice, "Jiu Er, hold back these words you just said."

"You're an imperial concubine. Pay attention to your image. What if other people heard about you?"

Fortunately, the two of them sat closer together and spoke softly. Everyone could only blame the two of them for talking, but no one knew what they were talking about. Otherwise, it would have been strange if these words had not caused a commotion.

Qian Jiujiu naturally knew how unbearable her words were in this age where etiquette was harsh to the point of death. She pursed her lips, "I'm just getting used to it, I won't say anything anymore."

Seeing that Qian Jiujiu had admitted her wrongs, Mu Yexiao did not say anything, but the two of them continued to whisper to each other, causing the eyes of everyone below to pop out.

That high and mighty Xiao Prince, weren't you cold and aloof? Why have you fallen into the mortal world now?

Is that w.a.n.gfei that good? To think that she would be able to make you talk to her without listening to her. Those aristocratic ladies who had previously admired the Xiao Prince immediately felt sad.

In the past, they did not even get a word from Xiao Prince. Looking at the current Qian Jiujiu, this difference made them want to smash their head against a wall.

Qian Jiujiu did not know that the two of them had caused another commotion, seeing that there was another group of dancers below, who were completely focused on watching, suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"maidservant Zheng Fu has a song she wishes to present to the Emperor, and she wishes to offer it to the Emperor."

Putting on a show, Zheng Fu had such guts. Qian Jiujiu was immediately interested in the show: "What do you think Zheng Fu wants to do?"

Mu Yexiao curled his lips: "Who knows, we'll just keep watching."

It was clear that the next show was the show they had arranged, but they didn't expect Zheng Fu to jump out at this time. This was absurd, delaying him once again.

So after Zheng Fu finished speaking, Mu Yexiao's eyes were like knives, flying towards Zheng Fu one by one, yet Zheng Fu did not feel Mu Yexiao's displeasure at all.

Instead, he directly knelt there. His gaze seemed to sweep past the third prince, and everyone immediately understood that this Zheng Fu was indeed daring.

Not only that, it was directed at the third prince. Qian Jiujiu immediately gave Mu Yexiao a kick, signalling him not to scare Zheng Fu anymore.

A woman whose mind was muddled by love had no intelligence to speak of. At this time, besides the Third Prince, she could not receive any other information.

Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mrs. Chung and Zheng Guogong, only to realize that both of their faces were still filled with astonishment. It seemed that they did not know what Zheng Fu was planning to do.

This is interesting, Qian Jiujiu could not help but think maliciously, and the Emperor finally woke up from the shock of Zheng Fu's bold actions, and looked at Zheng Fu.

"You are the daughter of the Zheng Guogong, right? As expected, the Elite Kingdom doesn't want to let you down. Alright, then go perform on stage."

Seeing that the emperor had agreed, Zheng Fu was immediately overjoyed. He once again looked towards the third prince, then towards the Qian Shang Shu, and proudly glanced at Qian Yuge.

Qian Yuge was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly. Seeing the annoying Qian Jiujiu standing so close to the Emperor, and also because she was Mu Yexiao's w.a.n.gfei, she had enjoyed a great living.

And she! Because she was only a niece of the Minister, she could only blame herself for sitting at the very back of the table and watching those people who clearly were not as glorious as she was.

If not for Madame Qian holding onto Qian Yuge's hand tightly, Qian Yuge would have already rushed out. But now, she could only bear with it. She couldn't afford to make a fool of herself at a time like this.

At this time, Zheng Fu had already changed into a new dancing costume and was jumping up. It could be seen that he had put in a lot of effort.

That dance was not one bit inferior to the dancers earlier, just at this time, when everyone was engrossed in watching, Qing Guifei who was on stage suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

The emperor shouted in shock, "Qing Guifei, what's wrong?"
