Zhou Yu felt that the smile on his face could hardly be stretched anymore.
Seeing Zhou Jingxian leave after finishing her words, he hurriedly caught up two steps and laughed dryly: "Sister Jingxian was joking. I came late and had no place to sit. Sister Jingxian just happened to invite me. How could I refuse? Besides..."
Zhou Yu lowered his voice and warned meaningfully.
"Grandpa Huang has always liked us, the royal children, to be able to unite and help each other. In this large public, you have to pay attention to the impact."
Speaking so bluntly, he believed Zhou Jingxian should take back what he just said.
really.
Zhou Jingxian raised her red eyes upwards, and a half-smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
This expression reminded Zhou Yu of Grandpa Huang's face, which he dared not look directly at. He lowered his head and adjusted his clothes to hide his emotions.
"Since Prince Yu wants to go see him, then go. Anyway, the guests coming tonight are guests, and I will not drive away the guests for the master."
As soon as Zhou Jingxian finished speaking, the drum beat changed again.
At the same time, Wu Luan was already standing on the top of the red silk.
The aroma came in waves, and Zhou Yu looked up.
Under the illumination of the candlelight, the girl wearing a thin veil on the red silk did not look like an ordinary thing, and he couldn't help but look straight at her.
"Your Majesty, Princess Xian has gone upstairs."
Zhou Ruqing saw that the prince was staring at Wu Luan girl, and thought to himself: It turns out that the prince likes Wu Luan. It seems that he has come to the right place this time, and there will be a reward when he returns.
Zhou Yu suddenly came to his senses after hearing Zhou Ruqing's reminder.
Realizing his gaffe, he hurriedly lowered his head and gave a fake cough, trying to cover it up. He was worried that others would recognize him and laugh at his behavior, but when he looked around, everyone had the same expression.
This is not only true for men, but also for women.
This gave him psychological balance.
Seeing that Feitianwu was about to start, he quickly followed Zhou Jingxian's footsteps to the second floor.
When they came to the second floor, they found that the view here was indeed very good, and the people sitting behind the screens in the several private rooms where the red silk could be directly seen were all known to Zhou Yu.
There are also many people that the Jin Palace wants to win over, but has never been able to win over.
For example, the only Wang with a different surname in Daxing, the young marquis of the Dingguan Wang family, the young granddaughter of the eldest princess' family, and several children of aristocratic families who have been passed down for three to five hundred years.
They all sat or stood occupying the best viewing spot in Tianxiang Tower. When they saw him coming up, they all smiled and bowed their hands in greeting.
Zhou Yu, who was a bit slow, was flattered and was about to return the favor when he heard Guan Changzai, the young prince of the Dingguan Wang family, smiling heartily: "Princess Xian, this is the first time I see you dancing with a sword. I didn't expect you to be so sassy. This year’s New Year’s Eve palace banquet, I won’t go without your sword dance!”
"..."
And Zhou Yu took the initiative to say hello. Only then did he realize that Guan Xiaohou was not saying hello to him, but to Zhou Jingxian.
"Sister Jingxian, I have long heard that you are very good at swordsmanship. You can teach me a few moves later. When the palace banquet is held, I can perform your skills with you to my grandfather, and let my grandfather praise me by your light. .”
The little granddaughter of the eldest princess is usually very proud, but today she was actually willing to praise Zhou Jingxian.
Zhou Yu watched this group of people flattering Zhou Jingxian in every possible way, and he didn't understand.
Even if Zhou Jingxian was made the princess and entered the court, they would not be so fawning.
In particular, this group of people only talked to Zhou Jingxian, as if they did not see him, which made Zhou Yu feel quite annoyed. In addition, he safeguarded the dignity of the royal family and did not want Zhou Jingxian to continue to deepen communication with these people.
When a group of people kept searching for words of praise, he snorted deliberately and inappropriately: "Sister Jingxian, I know that your sense of existence was very weak before, and no one knew you. You were eager to show off your abilities, but you As a third-grade princess, don’t you feel ashamed to dance swordsmanship in this Tianxiang Tower?”
Zhou Yu knew that Zhou Jingxian would refuse, but he had already thought of how to refute.
Then, after making this matter a big deal, everyone will understand how hard Zhou Jingxian worked and how scheming she was to integrate into the powerful circles of the capital.
However, Zhou Jingxian did not refute his words as he expected, but rather agreed with him.
"It's very embarrassing."
"..."
Zhou Yu took a deep look at Zhou Jingxian who didn't answer according to his preset, and was unable to answer the question for a while.
Just as he was preparing how to answer this question, the drums stopped, and dense and melodious music sounded under the intertwining of huqin and pipa, and a large amount of red silk was thrown down from the third floor.
"The flying dance has begun!"
Guan Xiaohouye shouted and successfully stopped Zhou Yu from speaking.
Everyone's eyes were directed towards the dancing figure in the red silk.
The beauty of Wuluan’s dance is no longer enough to be described as beautiful.
Her plump but light body danced around the red silk with only one arm. Her feet stepped on the red silk that fell in the wind, falling gracefully and rising again, like a fairy dancing among red flowers, like a dream. magical.
Moreover, her body worked in perfect harmony with the music, and every time she fell or rose, she stepped on the musical point of the variation.
It's like dancing on the strings, whether it's beauty, power or artistry, it has reached an extremely high level.
The dance ends.
Wu Luan's body was suspended in the dancing position, relying on the power of the red silk to stand on the spot, nodding in the direction of all the guests.
Even if a quarter of an hour has passed, it still makes people have endless aftertaste and feels that time is fleeting like running water.
"good!"
I don’t know who came back to his senses first, said goodbye and applauded.
Immediately afterwards, thunderous applause broke out.
Even Zhou Yu couldn't help but shout loudly after watching this dance.
"good!"
This was the first time in his life that he had seen such a gorgeous dance.
Very shocked!
He even wanted to thank Zhou Jingxian for bringing him upstairs because he could see Miss Wu Luan's flying dance here.
Thinking of Zhou Jingxian, he suddenly came back to his senses.
Judging from everyone's reactions, they were all as amazed as he was by Miss Wu Luan's flying dance.
But Zhou Jingxian's previous sword dance, although crisp and neat, was not entertaining in any way.
It was precisely through this that Zhou Jingxian's performance was nailed to the pillar of shame!
"What a dance! As expected of the world-famous Feitian Dancer!"
Zhou Yu suddenly shouted loudly, startling Zhou Ruqing who was still thinking about it next to him.
In addition, Wu Luan had already jumped to the preparation stage on the third floor with the help of red silk and started to rest. His voice suddenly attracted everyone's attention.
"Who is he? Shouting so loudly, don't you know it's offending the beauty?"
"Hush! Brother, please be careful, this is the Prince Yu of the Jin Palace."
"It doesn't matter what prince he is. If Princess Xian hadn't invited him up, I would have caught him now. I'm still thinking about it. He called me out of his wits. It's really disappointing."
Zhou Yu heard that the person speaking was the son of a general whose family was at odds with his father, and he did not refute.
Anyway, no matter whether they criticize him or support him, as long as everyone's attention is focused on him.
Next, he spoke louder.
"Sister Jingxian, your sword dance seems very boring in front of Feitianwu. Since you have just performed a dance for everyone, why not perform another one seriously to avoid spreading the news about what happened tonight? If everyone just It’s okay to think that you are embarrassed, but if you think that the royal family’s average level is still so showy, I’m afraid that sister Yu Jingxian, you and even Uncle Kang will have a bad reputation.”
"Miss Wu Luan is a dance that moves the capital. Sister Jingxian, your dance is a polite and virtuous corporal, making friends and enjoying the people together. You must show some sincerity."
Anyone could tell that Zhou Yu was not talking about the sword dance at all, but was clearly sarcastic.
It was believed that Zhou Jingxian had just shown her ugly face to make the dignitaries present happy. This attracted the attention of Guan Xiaohou and others, and she also wanted to gain a reputation for having fun with the people.
