~ THIS ROAD IS GETTING CROOKED ~
The Sixth Princess curled her lips. This Su Yuyi wanted her help to make her shine at the Palace Banquet before telling her why Su Qingwu was neither cold nor warm to her. Hmph, if it weren’t for this reason, she wouldn’t speak out to help her: “Imperial Father, We haven’t seen Xu Huan dance was like before. I think everyone was curious about it. Why not just let Su Yuyi dance a little, so we will also appreciate it.”
Mu Yunyao secretly pursed her lips. Was the Sixth Princess helping Su Yuyi or harming her? When she said those words, it meant that she actually treated Su Yuyi as a court muse. No matter how famous she was, I am afraid that she could only become a pastime for everyone to show off. Did Su Yuyi ever think about the consequences?
Su Yuyi’s eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as the green mountains. After hearing what the Sixth Princess said, she moved a little, but she eventually restrained herself.
Princess Qingning looked embarrassed. Imperial Concubine De had made things difficult for Su Qing and Mu Yunyao, and she was punished by the Emperor. The hatred in her heart increased even further, but when she was calculating how to settle the debt with Mu Yunyao, she heard Su Yuyi doing this to herself.
It was an honor to be called by the Emperor to present her skills in the Palace Banquet. Her rushing to perform was just to show off, but Yuyi’s reputation had already been severely damaged. Now that she has done this, do you still think her reputation is bad enough?
The Grand Princess Yi De looked at Su Yuyi as she gently caressed the phoenix pattern on her sleeve. “Su Yuyi, I remember her dancing style at the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet was very beautiful, but I never thought that she was still good at whirl dance. It’s rare for monarchs and ministers to get together today. Let’s have a good time.”
Su Yuyi was overjoyed. She stepped forward and bowed respectfully to the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi De, “This servant has disgraced and making a fool of myself.”
Grand Princess Yi De nodded and turned to look at Mu Yunyao. “Yunyao, come sit up here and help me make a pot of tea. I’ve been used to drinking your tea these past few days, so other people’s breawing skills are rather tasteless.”
Seeing Mu Yunyao walking upwards slowly after saluting, everyone was envious. Some people had good fates, making others unable to envy them, just like the Mu Yunyao in front of them. As long as she didn’t seek a path of death in the future, her future would be filled with beautiful flowers and definitely be blooming. After all, with the protection of Grand Princess Yi De, no one would provoke her for no reason.
When Su Yuyi finished changing into her dancing dress and walked over, she raised her head to salute, but the smile on her face instantly froze. Mu Yunyao sat at the side of Grand Princess Yi De, looking at her with a smile in her eyes as if she was looking at a joke that attracted the crowd’s attention.
“Let’s get started.” The Grand Princess Yi De said indifferently.
“Yes, this humble subject’s daughter has made a fool of herself. ” Su Yuyi felt that her internal organs were about to be dried by anger, and she bit down on the tip of her tongue until the smell of blood filled her mouth. She couldn’t control the mood that was about to erupt. She then raised the corner of her lips. There was a red phoenix tail kite pattern in the center of her eyebrows. Her slender arms slowly swayed and suddenly jumped up.
The attendant carried a blue and white indigo golden drum forward and caught Su Yuyi just in time. After that, he slowly placed her on the ground and bent over as he retreated.
Su Yuyi stood on tiptoe, her long and delicate sleeves swung open, revealing her bare feet.
Seeing this scene, Mu Yunyao was taken aback for a moment, and then, as if nothing had happened, she raised her teacup to cover her slightly upturned lips. Su Yuyi … it was really unexpected.
Many officials still looked the same on their faces when they saw this scene, which stared at Su Yuyi’s feet without looking away. This was Su Yuyi, known as the Capital’s number one beauty. Usually, she was raised as a noblewoman, and outsiders rarely saw her face. Unexpectedly, she would remove her shoes and socks today, allowing them to have a chance to feast their eyes.
Su Yuyi suddenly opened her eyes. The phoenix-tailed kite pattern was as hot as fire, and the deliberately painted red lips were charming and provocative. The rapid sound of drum music rang out, and with a light, vigorous rhythm, her feet lightly stomped on the ground. There was a thud on the surface of the drum, and then she spread out her sleeves and suddenly rotated.
Her long, jet-black hair was tied up, revealing a slender, fair neck. As she danced, the scent of her clothes, which had been deliberately smoked, flowed in the air. Drumbeats rang out in the air … After a short time, many people had obsessively forgotten the wine cup in their hands, and their eyes couldn’t wait to grow onto Su Yuyi’s body.
Su Yuyi’s figure was soft and graceful. As she turned in her dance, the bun on her head was slightly loose, and the golden jade steps that inserted diagonally accidentally fell to the ground, almost attracting people to rush forward and compete.
Feeling the increasingly heated gazes from the surroundings, Su Yuyi felt contented in her heart. She thought about the pain of her broken arm and the humiliation of being threatened by Mu Yunyao … The more intense her hatred was, the more beautiful her dancing move and style were.
The bead flew to the stars, and the rainbow veil flowed with electricity. The diving whale secretly sucked into the sea of waves, and the returning wind fluttered into the air.
The sound of the drum became more and more rapid, and it suddenly stopped when it reached a peak. Su Yuyi stood on top of the drum surface, with a trace of fragrant sweat and neck. His pair of beautiful eyes became increasingly radiant and enchanting.
“This humble subject’s daughter wishes Your Majesty a happy and good health. Long live, long live, long live your life.”
The Emperor looked at Su Yuyi with a look of amazement in his eyes: “Yes, I really didn’t expect your Xu Huan dance to be so excellent.”
Su Yuyi was overjoyed, “This humble subject’s daughter thanks Your Majesty for his praise.”
Many people praised her loudly, and Su Yuyi was in the limelight for a while.
The Grand Princess Yi De turned her head to look at Mu Yunyao. Seeing her slightly raised lips and the mockery in her eyes, she chuckled and relaxed.
Only then did Su Wenyuan’s dreary expression improve a little. A few days ago, he had no choice but to separate from his wife, Lady Meng. Su Yuyi had caused some trouble with him a few times, so she had been confined by him in the courtyard. After that, Princess Qingning came to him and asked him to bring Lady Meng and Su Yuyi away. He was stubborn, but he could only allow the two of them to go to the Meng family’s residence.
Today, Su Yuyi stepped forward in front of the Emperor entirely on her own initiative. After seeing her bare feet, he couldn’t help but wish that he could drag her down and beat her to death. Fortunately, the Emperor praised her, which is somewhat left him a little face.
The colleagues around him held wine glasses to congratulate Su Wenyuan, but their eyes were full of ridicule and mockery. In the past, when Su Wenyuan was serving as the Minister of Public Official, he always proclaimed that his family’s style was strict. However, when they saw Su Yuyi, the Eldest Miss of the Su family, who dared to dance barefooted in front of them and her words contained no lack of flattery to the Emperor. Dome people who don’t know might even think she was a muse who took pleasure in her work. Where does a lady look like?
“Lord Su’s daughter is really well-educated. Who knows how many people have been captivated by this Hu Xuan dance.”
“That’s right. You really can’t judge a book by its cover. I thought Lord Su would often have his daughter study poetry, practice zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I didn’t expect that he would also put in so much effort in dancing.”
He initially thought that the Su family had set their sights on Jin Wang, but who would have thought they would actually have their daughter to attract the attention of His Majesty? Tsk tsk, they really were willing to spend all their resources!
Su Wenyuan’s heart was filled with hatred, but he tried his best to maintain a calm expression on his face. “My daughter is stupid. She is not worthy of your praise.”
