Chapter 113

The hem of the red skirt swayed slightly, and the round fan covered half of her cheeks, revealing a pair of twinkling eyes. She glanced at Emperor Jiawen, and there was a charming smile in the eyes.

Concubine Li's expression had changed a long time ago, and the queen was also indifferent, but Emperor Jiawen couldn't help shaking his head slightly, and said as if sighing: "You."

The endings of these two words disappeared between the lips and teeth, and anyone could hear Emperor Jiawen's doting on Xiao Wanwan.

The Empress and Concubine Li have accompanied Emperor Jiawen for so many years. To put it mildly, Emperor Jiawen treated them with respect as guests. To put it harshly, he never put them on top of his heart, always in a polite tone.

Xiao Wanwan flicked her sleeves, the tear moles at the corners of her eyes added a bit of charm to this slightly immature face, her waist was swaying, and her black hair danced lightly.

King Duan did not know when he walked to Emperor Jiawen's table, Emperor Jiawen said: "I really want to thank Uncle Emperor tonight, sit down."

Duan Wang said: "It is also a blessing for the minister to relieve the emperor's worries."

Emperor Jiawen curled the corners of his lips: "Uncle Huang is someone who knows opera, I wonder how Yan Jieyu's performance will be this time?"

Although he was asking questions, his eyes never left the stage.

Duan Wang: "I think..."

Xiao Wanwan moved her lotus steps skillfully, showing a bright smile, and her eyes full of spring water were just facing Wang Duan.

She sang: "The cuckoos are singing red all over the green mountains, and the shredded tobacco outside the tea is drunk and soft."

"Huh?" Emperor Jiawen turned his head, "What does the emperor think?"

Duan Wang lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea, his eyes darkened slightly, and when he raised his head, there was a hearty smile on his face: "I can see that the lady Jieyu is here to demolish the platform today! She was carefully trained by the minister." Compared with this song by the empress, the performance of the ji troupe is really inferior."

Emperor Jiawen was also in a very happy mood, he patted Prince Duan on the shoulder: "I think the emperor's uncle sings better, and Yan Jieyu is still half tuned."

The queen forced a smile and said, "Sister Xiao didn't expect to be so talented in opera."

The corners of Emperor Jiawen's mouth curled up: "Small brains are indeed nimble, and they can shoot arrows well."

The queen could only laugh dryly.

After Xiao Wanwan's performance, she didn't change her clothes, she ran directly to Emperor Jiawen's table, first saluted, then thanked King Duan for lending her clothes, and sat down opposite to Emperor Jiawen, holding her hands together. Rubbing her cheeks, her eyes looked forward to Shenghui: "Your Majesty, does this concubine sing well?"

Emperor Jiawen didn't answer, but instead said: "Sitting here, you are blocking me from watching opera."

Xiao Wanwan curled her lips: "The emperor is making fun of the concubine again. The concubine is more than half a head shorter than the emperor when she sits down. How can she block the emperor's sight?"

Emperor Jiawen couldn't help laughing: "Well, I can grow even taller."

Xiao Wanwan thought to herself, I'm afraid it won't last long, since I don't get enough sleep every night, where did I get the time to grow up.

After the show ended, Xiao Wanwan went to return the clothes, and happened to bump into King Duan, she smiled and pointedly said: "Uncle Duan Huang, how is the performance of the palace tonight?"

Duan Wang was taken aback for a moment, and also pointedly replied: "That's right, you're growing fast."

He stopped Xiao Wanwan before she entered the cubicle: "Your Majesty, you don't need to return this costume."

Xiao Wanwan turned around: "Huh? Why?"

Duan Wang said: "Reciprocity is a matter of courtesy. In the past, I took a bag of Jade Rabbit Dumplings from my mother without my mother's permission. Today, I take a costume as a gift and apologize."

Xiao Wanwan didn't shirk it either, first of all, she really likes this dress, and second, Duan Wang beat her up before, so she can take this dress with peace of mind.
