Chapter 223 A Strange Music Score
At this time, Jiang Yimo was making eye contact with Princess Cangyue. Prince Li, wearing a dragon robe that symbolized his status, walked towards her and Feng Wuhen holding a glass of wine.
"Seventh brother, Miss Jiang, today is an auspicious day. Let's have a drink together, three of us!" King Li said with a smile on his face and a big laugh.
Since King Li was older than them, Feng Wuhen and Jiang Yimo raised their glasses and slowly stood up to greet him when they saw him walking towards them.
"Okay, then let's drink this cup!" Feng Wuhen responded.
Jiang Yimo also gently raised the cup in her hand and said with her red lips: "May you always be safe and worry-free."
After saying this, she tilted her head back slightly and drank the wine in the glass.
Her movements are graceful and elegant, like a fairy descending to earth, which is pleasing to the eye.
After the three of them drank the wine in their cups, King Li laughed out loud: "Haha! The blessing words Miss Jiang said just now were really wonderful!"
As he spoke, Prince Li lowered his head slightly, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes, and stared quietly at the woman in front of him who had a stunning appearance.
He sighed inwardly, regretting that he had met her too late. If he had met her earlier, he would have held such a beautiful woman in his arms without hesitation, and pampered and cared for her for the rest of her life.
"Miss Jiang, I heard that you went on a trip a few days ago. I wonder if your journey was smooth?" King Li asked softly, his eyes full of concern.
"It's okay. Thank you Prince Li for your concern for my daughter." Jiang Yimo replied politely.
Tonight Jiang Yimo discovered that the words and actions of King Li seemed to be different from before. His temperament had changed a lot and he was no longer as nonchalant as before.
At this time, Prince Li just smiled at her, then he reached out and patted Feng Wuhen on the shoulder, said something inexplicable "Treat her well", then he turned around and walked back to his seat.
Then, Prince Kang, who had always focused his attention on Jiang Yimo and Feng Wuhen, walked towards them steadily, holding a glass of fine wine. When his eyes rested on Jiang Yimo, a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Seventh brother, you are so lucky! You can have a beauty like Miss Jiang in your arms." King Kang said jokingly.
Who would have thought that Feng Wuhen did not deny King Kang's words, but responded calmly: "Second brother is right, it is really a blessing for me to know Momo."
After saying this, he looked at Jiang Yimo beside him affectionately, his eyes full of pampering and tenderness.
This immediately caused a slight blush on Jiang Yimo's beautiful face, which was as white as jade.
This Feng Wuhen is becoming more and more outspoken.
Then, King Kang raised his cup with them and drank it all, then he slowly left with a satisfied smile on his face.
However, as soon as King Kang left, Feng Wuhen said to Jiang Yimo in a serious tone, "Momo, remember to keep your distance from King Kang in the future."
"What do you mean? Am I very close to him now? It's obvious that he always comes uninvited!" Jiang Yimo retorted unhappily.
Before he finished speaking, Feng Wuhen was suddenly speechless and didn't know how to respond.
Fortunately, several officials who wanted to please Feng Wuhen came forward at this time and successfully eased the slightly awkward atmosphere on the scene.
Since most of the people present didn't know Jiang Yimo, very few people came forward to greet her and toast her. With nothing to do, Jiang Yimo had to sit in her seat and enjoy the food.
After a while, when Jiang Yimo was eating heartily, Princess Cangyue, Madam Shen and the eldest daughter of the Shen family came towards her with wine glasses in hand.
Princess Cang Yue called out in a tender voice: "Sister Jiang~"
Mrs. Shen smiled and nodded: "Miss Jiang~"
Hearing this, Jiang Yimo slowly stood up, her figure graceful and elegant. Her beautiful eyes curved slightly into a crescent shape, and she smiled at them, then said softly: "Princess Cangyue, Madam Shen, Miss Shen, on the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I wish you happiness and health, and a happy reunion!"
The three of them were refreshed when they heard Jiang Yimo's unique blessing. When they came to Jiang Yimo, they responded one after another: "Have fun together! Have fun together!" Their words were full of joy.
Afterwards, the four of them raised their glasses, clinked their glasses together, exchanged some greetings, and then returned to their seats.
At this time, the old emperor sitting in the upper position had a full view of the interactions of the people below.
Seeing that everyone seemed to have communicated almost enough, and he had been toasted many times by the ministers, he whispered to the eunuch Xiao Lizi who was standing respectfully beside him, "Xiao Lizi, go call those dancers to dance for everyone to relieve their boredom."
Upon hearing this, Little Li immediately bowed, nodded his agreement, and hurried away.
Soon, a group of dancers dressed in gorgeous costumes and with graceful figures were brought into the palace.
They danced gracefully with light lotus steps, like fairies descending to earth, which made people intoxicated.
The old emperor sat on the dragon throne, tasting fine wine and appreciating the magnificent dance performance, his mood gradually becoming cheerful.
The men and women present also watched with great interest. Especially the men, looking at the enchanting half-exposed figures of the dancers, their lustful eyes were fixed on them and could not be moved away.
Only Jiang Yimo felt bored.
But she couldn't leave, so she had to enjoy the food to pass the time.
However, Feng Wuhen's eyes were always on her.
After the dance was over, someone suddenly spoke up: "Your Majesty, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is also the day to celebrate the return of the Queen Mother, the Queen, and the Prince Sui to the palace. Wouldn't it be more interesting to have a talent show?"
"Well, this is a good idea. What do you think we should compete in tonight?" the emperor said thoughtfully.
"Your Majesty, I do have an opinion." At this time, the queen, who had not spoken a word all night, suddenly spoke.
"Queen, you say." The emperor looked at her.
"In the past, it was always a talent show for the ladies of each family. This year, we will change the format." The queen said with a smile.
At this point, everyone pricked up their ears to listen, extremely curious.
"Empress, what kind of game is that?"
"When I and the Queen Mother were praying outside the palace, we came across a strange piece of music. We have yet to find anyone to play it. If any talented person here can sing it or translate its meaning, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
As soon as the queen finished speaking, there was an uproar from the audience...
Everyone was curious about the music score in the Queen's hand.
