Splendid Phoenix Journey: The Arrogant Princess

Chapter 260 The Sturdy Concubine Han 2
Shen Wanyu couldn't adapt to Princess Han's enthusiasm for a while.But because the other party is the mother of the evildoer, she can only smile at each other.

The night banquet was not affected too much by their small episode, and the singing and dancing soon resumed.

The dancers in the palace in the main hall wore exquisite dance clothes and danced to the beautiful music.Soon the atmosphere heated up again, and the ministers who were acquainted with each other began to chat with each other.

While dealing with the enthusiastic Concubine Han, Shen Wanyu looked towards the Beining Hou Mansion.I saw my mother and grandmother sitting next to each other, looking at her with a smile.Seeing her looking over, he gave her a look of good job.

"I haven't seen Concubine Han for so many years, and seeing you this time really hasn't changed at all. You are still so heroic. You and your future daughter-in-law sit together and look like sisters."

Suddenly a middle-aged woman who was sitting not far from the lower head spoke suddenly, with a flattering smile on her face.

Shen Wanyu looked down at her own attire, and then at Princess Han in a fiery red dress.She immediately understood why her mother and grandmother wanted her to wear this dress.

Seeing that the two were wearing skirts of extremely similar colors, and Princess Han was well maintained.From a distance, they look like a pair of sisters.Shen Wanyu couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, people say that women who like red are mostly flamboyant.She didn't believe it very much before, but now she is new to this saying when she sees Princess Han.

"Hehe, Mrs. Ji is really joking. How can I be as gorgeous as my daughter-in-law? We are already old and can't compare with these children."

Concubine Han lovingly glanced at Shen Wanyu beside her, but did not accept the other party's flattery.Instead, she retorted very bluntly, she knew Mrs. Ji when she was young.He is a particularly snobbish person, and she hates this kind of person the most.

Mrs. Ji's complexion changed slightly, and she agreed with a slightly embarrassed smile.

"Yes, Princess Han is right. We are all old, and we cannot compare with these children."

Sitting back miserably, Mrs. Ji's face was obviously not very good-looking.The middle-aged woman sitting at the table below her suddenly raised her head, pretending to speak unintentionally.

"Princess Baihua Yanhan didn't come back this year, so she probably didn't see it?"

Concubine Han was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and nodded.She likes to be lively very much, so as long as she stays in Kyoto.As long as there is a Hundred Flowers Banquet, she will go to watch and join in the fun.

"That's really a pity. This year's Hundred Flowers Banquet is the most exciting one in these years." The middle-aged woman sighed regretfully, as if she felt sorry for Princess Han.

"That's right, it's a pity that Princess Han didn't see it." Mrs. Ji also catered to her, and then her eyes fell on Shen Wanyu.As if thinking of something, he said with a smile.

"In the top ten this time, there is Miss Shen. Her singing voice is rare and pleasant. After hearing it once, people will never forget it."

Shen Wanyu paused slightly with the hand holding the wine glass, and lowered her eyelids to block the flashing light in her eyes.She remembered that she didn't seem to have any intersection with Mrs. Ji, why she always pointed the finger at her tonight.

"Hehe, is that right? It turns out that my daughter-in-law has a good voice, and I like women with many talents the most. It seems that being able to marry a woman like Yu'er is really a blessing from my Han'er in her previous life."

Concubine Han smiled slightly, reached out to hold Shen Wanyu's other hand on her knee.Raising his chin slightly, he looked proud.

I don't know who suddenly proposed to let the ladies of each family perform their talents to add to the fun of today's dinner.He said that he had seen enough of the singing and dancing in the palace, and the emperor readily agreed.

Shen Wanyu was quite helpless, she hated attending royal dinners the most.One is because there will definitely be someone who will propose to let the ladies of various families perform their talents, and the other is that there will always be someone who will come to trouble her.

Shen Wanyu leaned on the mat bored, and did not intend to participate.Look at those ladies who are vying to be the first and the last to show off their acting talents.That's just trying to show face in front of everyone and win a good marriage for herself.

"I heard that Ms. Shen's singing voice is very nice. I wonder if Ji Ru has the honor to compete with Ms. Shen."

Suddenly there was a clear and pleasant voice like an oriole above his head, his tone was so gentle that it was impossible to find any faults in anyone.It sounds very sincere, I just want to exchange ideas with her without any provocation in it.

Shen Wanyu frowned indistinctly, and raised her head slightly to look at the woman standing in front of her.The fairy dress with flowers falling to the ground is paired with a snake bun, and the facial features are delicate.There is a touch of tranquility between the brows, and the whole person feels very good.It looks like warm water, very harmless.

But Shen Wanyu still saw a trace of hostility and jealousy in her eyes, and raised her eyebrows.There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and he opened his mouth.It's just that before her voice came out, someone else spoke out before her.

"Miss Ji, if you want to perform, I won't stop you. But don't drag my wife, my wife is not the kind of woman who just shows off her talents in front of others. Besides, she is from my Han'er now, I'm afraid No man would like his wife to perform for others."

Concubine Han leaned forward, blocking Shen Wanyu behind her.His complexion sank slightly, and his tone became cold.Naturally, what he said was not polite at all, and he didn't save Ji Ru any face.

Shen Wanyu looked at Princess Han standing in front of her, and was stunned for a moment.Then the corners of her mouth evoked a gentle smile, Princess Han is a person who protects her weaknesses.Although she hasn't married the evildoer yet, she has already started to protect her.

She herself is also a very protective person, and she also feels a lot closer to Princess Han at this time.

Ji Ru's face didn't change at all, and the corner of her mouth still had a gentle smile.She set her eyes on Shen Wanyu who was behind Concubine Han, and spoke slowly.

"It seems that Ji Ru was reckless, Princess Han is right. It's just that Ji Ru didn't have any other intentions, but just wanted to make friends through singing. It seems that Miss Shen is also unwilling, so Ji Ru no longer insists. "

Shen Wanyu narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the calm woman in front of her.She didn't pay attention to Ji Ru before, but she saw her today.She actually had a feeling that this Ji Ru was not simple.

Although Ji Ru spoke softly, her words were not offensive at all.But Shen Wanyu knew that this was a smart person's provocation.If she doesn't agree to come down today, maybe something will be said about her tomorrow morning.

"Little Yu'er, I miss your singing too. Would you like to sing another song for me?"

A deep voice came, and Chu Mohan's long and narrow phoenix eyes curled up to outline a gentle smile.His eyes fell on Shen Wanyu's body without blinking.

Chu Mohan's words changed the situation immediately, and the corners of Shen Wanyu's mouth curled up.Standing up slowly, she looked at Chu Mohan with clear eyes.

"Of course, as long as Mo Han thinks, I will agree."

Princess Han blinked her eyes and glanced at the two of them.Then he showed a gratified smile, without opening his mouth to stop him.

"Then Miss Shen agreed to this exchange?" Ji Ru still had a gentle smile on her face, but her hands hidden under her sleeves were slightly clenched.A flash of jealousy quickly flashed in his eyes.

Shen Wanyu turned her head and glanced at Ji Ru lightly, and smiled sweetly at the corner of her mouth: "Miss Ji, I didn't agree to your competition. I can perform only because Han wants to hear me sing, and it has nothing to do with you. "

After Shen Wanyu finished speaking, she stopped looking at Ji Ru, stood up and walked towards Beininghoufu.She beckoned Qiuzhu to come to her, and whispered some instructions.

Ji Ru's face changed slightly, and finally regained a piece of calm.She turned to look at Shen Wanyu, and spoke lightly.

"No matter what Ms. Shen says, I only think that you accepted this discussion."

When Shen Wanyu heard this, she just shrugged indifferently.She is not a god and cannot control other people's thoughts.Since she thinks that's the case, then it's good to be like this, and she will feel tired if she talks too much.

Ji Ru walked to her place, and the little maid beside her immediately handed a lyre into her hand.She picked up the qixuanqin and walked to the center of the hall, and sat cross-legged on the ground.Put the qixuanqin on his lap, and then slowly closed his eyes.

The light and melodious sound of the piano flowed out from her fingertips, mellow and pleasant.Accompanied by the beautiful sound of the piano, the crisp singing like an oriole sounded slowly.

The songs Ji Ru sang were gentle and lingering, just like the little songs from Jiangnan.Gentle and soft sprinkled in people's hearts, with a kind of magic that makes people quiet.In such a soft voice, all the irritability seemed to be calmed down.

Surprise flashed in Shen Wanyu's eyes, Ji Ru was very smart.Her voice is not suitable for singing that kind of passionate song, but she can perform this kind of little song like Jiangnan to the fullest.

She glanced at the crowd who were quietly listening to Ji Ru's singing, and the corners of her mouth curled up.Presumably this is the effect Ji Ru wants, to immerse everyone in the quiet atmosphere created by her singing.

Shen Wanyu picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip lazily.With clear eyes, he glanced at Chu Mohan's position, but found that there was no one there.

She was slightly taken aback, where did this monstrous person go?Just now, he said that he wanted to let him sing to him, but now he is gone.When it was time for her to play, who would she sing to?
Shen Wanyu gritted her teeth secretly, what is this damn evildoer planning to do.She hasn't settled with him for the marriage gift before, but it's good that she has added another force now.

Seeing how nice she is, she gave him enough face outside.In private, she will settle accounts with him properly.

Shen Wanyu glanced at Chu Mohan's position from time to time, but she still didn't see him come back.At this time, the sound of the piano stopped suddenly, and the soft singing also stopped.
