Rebirth: Holding on to the golden thigh and showing off

Chapter 33 Birthday Banquet Performance

On the last night before the birthday party, Aunt Wen prepared a gorgeous palace dress for me.

The elegant blue palace dress has dark green bamboo leaves embroidered on the hem and is outlined with gold thread, which makes it elegant and luxurious.

I really like.

At dawn, many carriages were already lined up in front of the gate of the imperial city.

The guard checked the invitation and let him go.

The ceremonial officer recorded the birthday gifts sent by the guests and then invited them in.

In the hall, many guests were already seated, drinking and chatting.

I was being forced by my maid to dress up in palace attire.

"Mrs. Xiaowei's skin is so good that she doesn't need any makeup at all."

"This powder looks yellow when applied on the face."

"Miss Xiaowei is so beautiful."

I was both happy and a little shy at the same time because of what they said.

“My sisters are beautiful too.”

People who practice cultivation have all gone through the process of cleansing their meridians and strengthening their marrow, so of course their appearance will not be bad.

Xuan Qingli was also wearing a green palace dress with golden dragon patterns on the sleeves, which was very eye-catching in the sunlight.

The maids and guards passing by took one look and dared not look again, as they felt it was blasphemy if they looked too much.

Xuan Qingli and I walked side by side to the main hall.

Aunt Wen was wearing a bright red palace dress, which was bright and gorgeous, and full of nobility. We became supporting roles behind her.

The hall was already full of guests, all waiting for the King and Queen of Qinglong Kingdom to enter.

"Emperor, Queen, come in."

Amid the shouts of the ceremonial officer, Aunt Wen took Uncle Xuan's arm and slowly walked into the hall.

The musicians played cheerful tunes and the guests stood up to welcome them.

Taking advantage of the light from Qingli, I followed her into the venue.

There were too many gazes on me and I fell behind without realizing it.

Xuan Qingli discovered it and slowed down to the same speed as me.

Kou Jinghui, Wen Jin, and Xuan Liuye, who were standing, were all very surprised to see me, and they were also glad that they did not do anything out of line on the flower boat at that time.

After Aunt Wen exchanged some greetings, everyone took their seats.

The delicious dishes were served one by one by the maids.

A beautiful singer was dancing on the central stage of the hall, her white veil fluttering as she moved her arms.

Feeling someone's gaze on him, he looked over and saw Kou Jinghui.

I quietly raised my hand to greet him, and found that his face changed and he looked away.

"Do you know Kou Jinghui?" Xuan Qingli was handing me some pastries.

"Well, some time ago on a flower boat..." Oops, I let it slip.

He raised an eyebrow, "Flower boat?"

I laughed and said, "Look at the dancing, look at the dancing."

Xuan Qingli also knew that it would be difficult to ask more questions now as there were so many people around, so she planned to ask again tomorrow.

On the stage was a girl in riding clothes, wielding a javelin with great vigor and heroic spirit.

Aunt Wen was very happy to see this and said, "There is a reward."

Many girls flirted with Xuan Qingli. Everyone knew that he was only a half-disciple of the Buddhist sect and could still find a partner.

Everyone wanted to go on stage and compete to see who could gain the favor of His Highness Qingli.

At this time, Kou Jingfei stood up and said, "Queen, I would like to invite the girl next to Your Highness to celebrate your birthday together."

Ah? I haven't prepared anything. I don't want it.

Kou Jinghui also pulled his sister's sleeve and whispered, "Fei Fei, stop making trouble."

Kou Jingfei didn't even look at her brother, she looked straight at me.

Aunt Wen raised her eyebrows, "I wonder what Jingfei wants to perform?"

"Replying to the Queen, Jing Fei learned a piece of music specially for you some time ago, and you are still in need of a dancer. This girl's appearance and temperament are very suitable."

I can't dance, so I looked at Aunt Wen anxiously.

Everyone heard the hidden meaning of Kou Jingfei's words, that the dancers must follow the rhythm of the tune, otherwise they would only make a fool of themselves.

Kou Jingfei knew that anyone with a bit of common sense would not refuse, so it was not easy to make excuses.

I must go up with this dancer. She is imagining the embarrassing scene of me not being able to keep up with the rhythm.

"Jingfei, you haven't found a dancer for the song you learned in advance for me?" Aunt Wen looked at Kou Jingfei calmly.

"Then I still think it's better for her not to go on stage. After all..." Aunt Wen changed the subject, "Master Xiaowei didn't ask her to learn these things. As long as she is happy, she can be herself and know her duty."

Kou Jingfei turned pale with fear. I didn’t expect Aunt Wen to take the initiative to refuse on my behalf. “No, Jingfei is not ready.”

"Then sit down and don't block others from watching."

I secretly gave Aunt Wen a thumbs up, she was so awesome.

The performance on the stage continued and the guests felt at home.

In the afternoon, the guests left the imperial city one after another, and the evening was the time for Aunt Wen and Uncle Xuan to spend alone.

Xuan Qingli played the role of a good host and invited people from the three sects and nine schools to gather in his palace.

"I didn't expect Xiaowei to have successfully transformed. The last time we met was in the Bauhinia Forest." Shang Xichen sighed.

"Good luck, hahaha."

Chu Yan whispered at the side, "It's all thanks to the Buddha, otherwise you wouldn't be able to transform successfully."

Ling Jing, who was standing beside her, didn't hear clearly, "Junior Sister, what is Buddha's son?"

"Nothing, brother."

When I saw Chu Yan again, I felt no emotion at all, because her cultivation level was not as high as mine.

I am a talented person who wants to follow Xuan Qingli to ascend to the upper realm.

Shang Xichen handed me a storage bag, "These are some of the pills I made with Xuxu last time."

The quality and quantity of the pills are very good, so I accepted them with pleasure.

"I heard that the mermaid king will have his coming-of-age ceremony in a year."

"I haven't been to Suyinhai yet."

"When the time comes, we will definitely go with the elders."

In the previous life, I heard from Chu Yan that the king of the mermaid clan fell in love with her at first sight.

Now, I look at this matter with suspicion.

It must be some weird idea her system came up with again.

Chu Yan was almost driven crazy by the system.

Earlier at the birthday banquet, the system said that Xuan Zeyu’s luck was only slightly lower than Xuan Qingli’s, but how could she dare to get close to the emperor of Qinglong Kingdom?

Now he is also being called by the system to contact Xuan Qingli.

She was afraid that before she even got close, she would be glared at by Qing Si behind him.

I had no choice but to block the system and eat my meal in peace, but I felt depressed when I saw the Jade Green Ginseng's transformed appearance.

I have worked so hard and taken so many beauty pills, but I still can't compare to you. This world is so unfair.

After dinner and tea, everyone got up and left, and agreed to meet again for the ceremony in a year.

These days we have been preparing to go to Huoyan Mountain.

Qing Si is also going this time. He has fire-attributed spiritual roots, and he is going to look for an opportunity to break through to the golden elixir stage.

After saying goodbye to Aunt Wen and Uncle Xuan, we set off on our journey.

Xuan Qingli and I both wore face-changing masks, and Qingsi was driving.

But what's going on when I'm chased for training every day?

I lay down on the coffee table and looked at Xuan Qingli with resentment.

"You have not received any training from the sect system. You only have the skills but no body skills. You will be at a disadvantage in the battle."

I know he is right, but if I can't beat him, I can run away.

Xuan Qingli knew what I was thinking by looking at my expression, "Don't just think about running away."

"understood."

The closer we got to the Flaming Mountain, the more people came to the official road, and many of them were rushing to get the Ten Thousand Year Flame Marrow.

The carriage couldn't move anymore, so Xuan Qingli folded the carriage and we walked over.

It was very hot. Even though I was wearing vestments, I could still feel the intense heat.

We hid under a tree to keep cool and continued our journey at night.
