Are you all after the heroine? I married that female devil

The so-called talent show mainly focuses on musical instruments and poetry writing, with sword dancing or dancing being shown in rare cases.

Perhaps because she had not left the palace for too long, An Lingyu showed great interest in everything. All performances would be evaluated by her, and there were almost no negative reviews, which attracted more and more young ladies and talented women to try their luck.

During this period, An Lingyu did not forget to chat with Gu Ruoyi, deliberately talking more about Gu Qing's stories, and interspersed some of her son Shen Junyan's deeds in the army.

It would be fine if we only mentioned Gu Qing and Shen Junyan.

I just don't know if An Lingyu was in a good mood or was intentionally trying to disgust Ye Liyan on the other side by mentioning Ye Fen.

Comparing Ye Fen with Gu Qing, he lamented that if the latter had a good backer, his title and military position would definitely not stop there.

Gu Ruoyi frowned, she didn't like her father being compared to others, and the person being compared to was the father of her benefactor. He already had a mediocre impression of Concubine An, and now his impression might be even worse.

"My Lady, my father and General Ye have both devoted themselves to the great cause and have made great contributions. Your Majesty has always been clear about rewards and punishments. I don't think there is anything wrong with this."

The smile on An Lingyu's lips slowly faded. She didn't expect Gu Ruoyi to refute her and even mentioned His Majesty. What did this mean? Was she trying to use His Majesty to pressure her?

When she came, she noticed that Gu Ruoyi and Ye Liyan seemed to know each other. Now she can be confirmed that the two girls not only know each other, but also seem to have a good relationship.

When Ye Fen was mentioned just now, she saw Gu Ruoyi's eyes subconsciously drifting towards Ye Liyan, and the latter responded with her eyes. As for whether they communicated through telepathy, it was unknown.

"Ruoyi, you are from a military family and now serve in the army. I believe your kung fu must be very good. How about you perform a sword dance for us?" An Lingyu smiled again, but this time her smile was obviously not as gentle and kind as before.

Gu Ruoyi knew that the other party was unhappy and wanted to warn her. After all, the other party was a noble concubine and had easy access to His Majesty. Some gossip could be detrimental to the Gu family, so she stood up and saluted without refusing her request. However, she had no sword in her hand, so she looked around and her eyes fell on Qingyu.

Qingyu was embarrassed because the thing on her waist was a scimitar, not a sword, otherwise she would have lent it to the other party if her princess nodded.

At this time, the palace maid in green found an unsharpened sword from somewhere and walked forward to hand it to Gu Ruoyi.

Gu Ruoyi took the sword without saying anything, but calmly walked to the middle of the stage and faced An Lingyu.

An Lingyu raised her hand and said calmly, "Play music."

As the drum beats, Gu Ruoyi's eyes suddenly changed, becoming extremely sharp, her sword dancing in the wind, her white clothes fluttering, and her figure as graceful as a startled swan.

This scene made An Lingyu's eyes light up. She had previously suspected that Gu Ruoyi was just a show-off and that all this was thanks to Gu Qing.

I didn't expect that he really has such skills. These moves cannot be mastered in a short period of time.

If she wants to be truly worthy of Yan'er, these alone are not enough. She is really unhappy with what was said just now. She needs to teach her a lesson and let her understand what the dignity of an elder is.

If you wait until the other party is really with Yan'er to warn him, it will be too late.

An Lingyu winked at the green-clothed palace maid beside her, who understood immediately, walked to the back, and soon came out holding a sword.

Ye Liyan and Qingyu, who were closest to him, noticed at a glance that the sword in the opponent's hand had been sharpened and was a weapon that could hurt people.

Then, a maid in green came forward with a sword in hand and said indifferently, "It's really boring to watch Miss Gu dancing with a sword alone. Why don't you add me to help the Imperial Concubine?"

"Okay, why don't you two dance together?"

An Lingyu smiled and clapped.

Gu Ruoyi's eyebrows moved slightly. At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on her. If she refused, it would be a coward, and it would damage her father's reputation and face, so she had to accept the challenge.

"Please wait a moment."

Ye Liyan suddenly called for a halt, stood up and saluted towards An Lingyu, saying, "My Lady, I just saw the sword in this girl's hand, and it seems to be sharpened. If we dance against each other, it may increase the risk of Miss Gu getting hurt."

The maid in green turned around, holding the sword and bowing, she said, "Your Highness, I only found this sword when I went to the back."

Hearing this, An Lingyu looked at Gu Ruoyi and said, "Swords and knives have no eyes on the battlefield, which is much more dangerous than sword dancing. I think Ruoyi should not be afraid."

"Your Highness, I'm not afraid." Gu Ruoyi subconsciously tightened the sword in her hand.

"Okay! Let's start!"

An Lingyu clapped her hands, and the originally soothing music suddenly became passionate, with dense and thrilling drum beats.

The green-robed palace maid flipped the blade of her sword, took a step forward and floated onto the stage.

Gu Ruoyi slid back a few steps to avoid the attack temporarily.

The green-clothed palace maiden pursued the enemy, waving the long sword in her hand. The sword shadow was like a blooming flower stamen, confusing the eyes.

Gu Ruoyi blocked each of the sword attacks very skillfully, controlling her strength just right. If it weren't for the strength of Ye Liyan and the others, they would have thought that the two were really dancing with swords.

Outside on the river bank.

Shen Yian was stunned when he noticed what was happening inside the ship.

What happened? He had only been paying attention to Fifth Brother for two or three minutes, and then a fight broke out.

What on earth does this old woman An Lingyu want to do?

Is this the Hongmen Banquet?

Why did he let his men attack Gu Ruoyi?

He thought that the other party would use similar means to make things difficult for his wife, but he never thought that he would make things difficult for Gu Ruoyi. Did the talks break down?

According to the strength level of the two, if Gu Ruoyi wanted to win, she could easily defeat the green-clothed palace maid with just one effort.

But in order to hide her own strength and avoid causing other bad influences, Gu Ruoyi restrained her edge and fought with him on equal terms.

In the main hall, those young ladies who usually stayed at home had never seen such a scene before, and their eyes were wide open.

Although it is called sword dancing, it is actually no different from fighting. Both sides just don't use their internal energy. They are just countering each other's moves and relying on their physical fitness and swordsmanship.

The green-clothed palace maid became more and more frightened as the fight went on. Every time she drew her sword, it would be cleverly resolved by Gu Ruoyi in front of her, as if the sword was stabbing into the air.

This means that the other party may be superior to her in terms of both strength and swordsmanship.

If I lose like this, I will lose face for the queen and I will definitely be punished when I go back, but the chances of winning are so slim, damn it!

"when!"

The two swords clashed and sparks flew. The sword in Gu Ruoyi's hand was obviously of worse quality than the one in the hand of the green-clothed palace maid, and it was not sharpened. The sudden strong collision caused a dent.

Gu Ruoyi was a little stunned. She didn't expect the other party to suddenly use her internal energy. Once the two of them started fighting, the aftermath would definitely affect the people around them. Is this woman crazy?

Most of the people at the scene were of high status. If any of them were hurt, the people behind them would not let it go. Would An Lingyu really offend so many people for a personal maid? !

"enough."
