Divine Doctor's Daughter: The Imperial Concubine

Chapter 15
"The Emperor is here!"

Everyone hurriedly knelt down on the ground, "See the emperor." The empress and concubine Ye stood up to salute, "The concubine has seen the emperor."

"Exemption."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xiao Huang walked in with the male guests, walked to the main seat, and waved to the people below, "Give me a seat."

Everyone thanked again and sat down, Xiao Huang then said to the queen: "Thank you for your hard work." , and then loudly announced the beginning of the banquet.

All of a sudden, dancers in various colored clothes flooded into the main hall, the sound of silk and bamboo was heard, and the maids also brought various fresh fruits and fine wines to the guests at any time.

The eyes of the girls did not fall on singing and dancing, but most of them blushed because of the male guests opposite.

Chu Ruoying also looked towards the other side. At the front sat a man wearing a brown robe with tiger patterns embroidered with silver thread, and behind him sat a handsome young man in white, with a slightly pale complexion like ink. Long hair made people feel sick and weak. Seeing Chu Ruoying's suspicious expression, Xia Zhiqi followed her gaze and said in a low voice: "The ones sitting in front are the third prince and the fifth prince. .”

Chu Ruoying was a little surprised and said, "It's actually the Fifth Prince?"

"The fifth prince has been sick since he was born." Xia Zhiqi nodded and explained slightly.

Chu Ruoying understood immediately, and couldn't help but give him a sympathetic look.Just as she was about to look away, a gust of cold air suddenly struck, Chu Ruoying couldn't help but stare blankly, and looked over blankly, Mu Ziyuan's dark eyes were stained with a touch of dark red, and there seemed to be a touch of anger at the bottom of her eyes in float.

The light of her eyes lightly fell on Chu Ruoying's body, and Chu Ruoying lightly met her deep eyes, she seemed to look away unconsciously, and looked elsewhere.Mu Ziyuan's dark eyes suddenly became darker.

Chu Ruoying lightly raised her eyes to look at her sister beside her, but found that her eyes were full of affection, staring straight at Mu Ziyuan on the men's table, but Mu Ziyuan didn't give her any attention.

"Ying'er, Ying'er?" Xia Zhiqi's voice came from next to her ear, and Chu Ruoying looked back at her calmly, "What's wrong?"

Xia Zhiqi whispered: "Are you okay?"

ah?Chu Ruoying just came back to her senses, and smiled apologetically.

"It's okay, I'm a little bored."

Xia Zhiqi nodded, "Actually, I don't like attending banquets either, it's really boring."

About an hour later, the singing and dancing left the stage, Concubine Ye smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this banquet is really boring." Emperor Xiao looked at Concubine Ye, but he was not angry, "Oh? Then according to Concubine Ai, what should I do? "

Concubine Ye glanced at the female seats, her gaze passed over Chu Ruoying very lightly, her lips parted slightly, and she said: "I have heard that all the girls in the official family are talented, why not let them show off their talents." Xiao Huang nodded , "What does the queen think?" Empress Xia nodded with a smile, "It's really a bit boring." Xiao Huang glanced at the male guest table meaningfully, and then said: "In this case, I will follow what my concubine said. .”

The queen glanced at Nanny Cui next to her, and Nanny Cui immediately stepped forward knowingly, and said in a loud voice: "The singing and dancing is suspended, and ladies from all families can come on stage to compare their talents." Everyone's family background is not low. If you have outstanding talents, you will naturally be looked at differently by the royal family, and you can get a good marriage, and even enter the palace as a concubine.

But after a while, some people came to the stage to perform, some started to start, and the ladies from various families were no longer so restrained, and they all came to the stage to show their talents.

"My daughter, Chu Xin'er, is willing to perform a dance."

At this time, the main hall was ready, and Chu Xiner had already gone to the side hall to change her dance clothes. The sound of silk and bamboo slowly sounded, and Chu Xiner appeared in front of everyone in a colorful dance dress, combing the popular flying cloud bun, Her hair is pulled up high, and the light red lotus hosta is looming in the hair, which makes her skin white as snow. The small face with a little makeup is painted with exquisite makeup, and a small plum blossom is painted between the eyebrows, which adds to the beauty. Kind of charming.

It's just that as the time of the palace banquet passed, Chu Xin'er gradually felt a faint tingling sensation on her body, and her face also turned a little unnaturally reddish, but she also knew that she couldn't make a fool of herself on such an occasion, so she had to endure it.

The lotus steps are moved lightly, the wide and wide sleeves are opened and closed to cover, revealing the white jade wrists, the eyebrows are flowing, showing a charming meaning in the night, the arms are spread, the body is lightly twirling, the skirt is dancing like clouds, in a trance. Playing in the world like an elf.

Everyone in the hall looked at all this in astonishment, and even Xiao Huang said in surprise: "Chu Aiqing's daughter has excellent dancing skills, she moves people's hearts with her dancing."

Everyone looked at the people in the field with admiration, and what's more, there was a gleam in their eyes that they must win.Chu Xiner looked at the expressions of everyone, but she didn't feel any joy in her heart. She just felt itchy all over her body, and she could even see red bloodshots on her arms. She couldn't help feeling a strong sense of fear in her heart. .

The originally brisk dancing posture finally gradually became slow and weird, and everyone below couldn't help talking, and some women even started to laugh unscrupulously.

The voices of people mocking and swearing constantly came from Chu Xin'er's ears, her complexion became more and more ugly, and Xiao Huang also snorted coldly with a sullen face.

Finally, when Chu Xiner turned around, she fell to the ground in a vulgar way.

Chu Lie watched all this at the banquet, and immediately stepped forward anxiously to make a rescue: "My Majesty, my daughter is not feeling well these days. She shouldn't be participating in the competition, but she only wanted to cheer for the banquet, so she made such a mistake." Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Huang's face paled when he heard the words, it was a shameful thing, but Chu Lie said it was a sincere heart, after all, he was a person who had been in the officialdom for many years.

"So, quickly ask the imperial doctor to make a diagnosis for him, so as not to delay the treatment." Xiao Huang said compassionately, and waved to the attendants.

When the matter of Chu Xiner was diluted by the woman afterward, everyone continued to immerse themselves in singing and dancing.

After a while, Concubine Ye looked at the singing and dancing, and she suddenly showed regret, and she seemed to say unintentionally: "After watching so many dances, I can't help but think of General Chu's wife when she was young. My concubine's fortune is poor, and I don't have the chance to meet you..."

Something flashed in Xiao Huang's eyes very quickly, but Concubine Ye didn't know it, and sighed secretly: "I haven't seen Miss Chu's performance just now, it's a bit regretful..." Xiao Huang then looked at the woman in the hall At the table, he asked, "Where is Miss Chu?"
