Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family
Chapter 22 Talent Show
At this time, the Third Prince Mu Huan chuckled, "My cousin is the most stubborn. Even if the Prime Minister's wife is not here, she still wants to come out on top."
After saying that, he glared at Shi Dali and cursed him in his heart for being stupid.
Originally, he wanted Shi Dali to win over Duanmu Ling, but he didn't know that this guy was so talkative and said whatever he wanted.
If it weren't for the fact that his father was still useful, Mu Huan would have kicked Shi Dali aside long ago.
The fifth prince snorted coldly with a straight face at this time, "Shi Dali, if you talk nonsense again next time, this prince doesn't mind giving you a new tongue!"
He has always spared no effort in doing anything that could suppress the Third Prince's lineage.
Shi Dali's face turned pale when he heard this, and he immediately knelt down and apologized, "Fifth Prince, please forgive me, I was too outspoken, and I will never dare to do that again!"
The Third Prince frowned and looked at the Fifth Prince, then smiled and said, "He just spoke hastily. Why should Fifth Brother scare him?"
Since the third prince had spoken, the fifth prince snorted again and said nothing.
Zhao Yuanshan hurriedly helped Shi Dali. Although he looked down on this man in his heart, he was brought by the Third Prince, so he couldn't say anything. He could only make a joke to cover up the matter.
Just at this moment, a burst of melodious piano music came from the other side. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "This song is really nice, quiet and elegant. I wonder which lady is playing it?"
"It's our princess's cousin!"
The third prince was quite proud of himself, and when he glanced at Mu Gu not far away, a hint of contempt flashed across his eyes.
Ever since the third and fifth princes came, Mu Gu has been acting as an invisible man.
He knew that he was no match for others in terms of strength now, so he could only remain silent and bide his time.
Although Princess Jianing is arrogant, she is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. In addition, she has a noble status. There are not many people in the capital who can match her.
Princess Jianing did not come for anyone else, she only liked Duanmu Ling, and she came today fully prepared in order to leave a good impression in front of the Prime Minister's wife.
But the Prime Minister's wife didn't want her son to marry a princess, so she could only play the zither for everyone.
When the song ended, someone immediately took the lead in applauding, and compliments flowed out of everyone's mouths like water.
Xiao Mingyue had adjusted her mood by now. Looking at Xiao Ruge who was sitting next to her contentedly, enjoying music and drinking wine, she felt a surge of resentment in her heart.
Why is it okay for her to be beaten?
I must make Xiao Ruge embarrass herself today!
She was angry towards Princess Jianing but dared not say anything, so she wanted to vent her anger on Xiao Ruge, so she stood up and bowed to everyone.
"My sisters are all very talented. Seeing them, I am eager to try my hand at it. Today, I will perform a dance to make you ladies smile!"
Before Yao could say anything, Xiao Mingyue walked out on her own.
When he stood in the middle, he turned to look at Xiao Ruge, "Second sister, I heard you can play the piano, can you accompany me with a song?"
Xiao Ruge was holding a cup and tasting Lihuabai. Hearing this, she raised her eyebrows and smiled.
"Fourth sister, who told you this? I, your second sister, can neither play the zither nor write calligraphy. I only know how to wield swords and guns. How about you stop dancing and fight me instead?"
"But I'm a very ruthless person. If I scratch Fourth Sister's face, don't cry and scream!"
Xiao Mingyue was frightened when she heard this. She was angry in her heart, but she smiled and said, "Second sister, don't joke."
"Fourth sister, why don't I play the music for you?"
At this time Xiao Qianqian stood up and looked at Xiao Mingyue with a smile.
Originally, he wanted to embarrass Xiao Ruge, but who knew that he almost made her lose face.
Fortunately, Xiao Qianqian came to the rescue, and finally Xiao Mingyue had to nod in agreement.
Xiao Qianqian played a piece of music called "The Phoenix Seeks the Phoenix", and Xiao Mingyue danced to the sound of the music.
She came well prepared today and wore a light green fairy dress. She danced like a fairy in the forest, and the ladies praised her repeatedly.
"Madam, your fourth daughter is really a wonderful person. It would take several years of practice to achieve such dancing skills!"
"Mrs. Wang, you are too kind. It's just a little girl dancing around at home!"
Lin was modest in words, but a little jealous in her heart.
When did Xiao Mingyue learn to dance?
And she dances so well, how come she doesn’t know?
At the same time, he was angry with Xiao Qianqian, who insisted on being a supporting role for Xiao Mingyue, and immediately overshadowed her.
Xiao Ruge raised her head and drank another glass of Lihuabai, with a faint smile on her lips.
In her previous life, in order to seduce Lu Yu, Xiao Mingyue practiced more than just dancing. She was also good at some things that were not presentable!
The reason why she worked so hard today was, firstly, that she wanted to gain a foothold among the noble ladies in the capital, and secondly, she probably wanted to use this to attract Lu Yu's attention.
"You played the song 'Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix' quite well!"
Zhao Qingshan was holding a pot of wine, propped up one leg, leaning on a chair, looking at the water pavilion opposite with a smile on his face.
I don’t know which family this lady is from?
Thinking of his identity, Zhao Qingshan sighed, picked up the wine jug, tilted his head back and poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth.
He felt that no matter which family the lady came from, she would definitely not choose to marry a merchant's son like him.
He came here today just to serve as a foil.
"I think the dancing lady is pretty good!"
The Fifth Prince looked at Xiao Mingyue's nimble figure and guessed that if she was of high status, it would be nice to take her home as a concubine.
But he didn't know that when Lu Yu heard these words, he immediately became alert.
Thinking about Xiao Mingyue's past kindness to him, he decided to ask her out in a couple of days.
"It's time for Fifth Brother to marry a wife. If you like her, I will go to the palace on your behalf and ask our father to grant you a marriage!"
The third prince patted the fifth prince on the shoulder, looking like a respectful brother.
But the Fifth Prince was not grateful, "Don't worry about this, Third Brother. I have my own plans."
Duanmu Ling watched the two brothers scheming against each other, nudged Mu Gu with his shoulder, and asked in a low voice: "Why don't you say anything?"
"say what?"
Although Mu Gu remained silent, his eyes would occasionally look at the beautiful figure who was drinking.
He suddenly felt that from this perspective, Xiao Ruge's back looked more like the person who gave him the medicine that night.
The medicine the man gave him was very effective. The wound formed a scab the next day. Within a few days, even the scab fell off, leaving only a few shallow scars.
At this time, the third prince came over with a wine jug, patted Mu Gu's shoulder hard, and sat down beside him with a smile, using his strength.
"Why hasn't Xiao Qi spoken?"
A hint of coldness flashed through Mu Gu's heart, and he smiled respectfully and said, "Third brother also knows that I have never been a talkative person."
"Young Master Zhao invited us here today just to have fun! You have been silent the whole time, acting as if we are bullying you!"
