Concubine Jing did as she was told, and the first one she drew was the young lady from the family of the Minister of Etiquette.
She went up and sang a song, her voice was like a lark, and everyone present cheered.
After that, the daughter of the Minister of Punishment came up and painted a picture.
Then came Zhao Linyu. Zhao Linyu bowed to everyone and said that he would go up and play the piano.
Qin was quickly brought up. Zhao Linyu's skills were pretty good, but not amazing either.
Mu Zhao originally wanted her to make a fool of herself, but felt it was unnecessary.
Just when she was about to lower her head to eat the fruit, she suddenly heard a long and long cracking sound.
Mu Zhao knew without looking that the string was broken.
But she still wanted to look over and see Zhao Linyu's expression at this time.
Zhao Linyu retracted her hand in panic, "This..."
Concubine Jing's expression also changed, it was a very unlucky thing to break the strings.
She glanced at Emperor Zhou, who frowned, but did not pursue it. He just waved his hand and said, "Go down."
Zhao Linyu looked at Emperor Zhou's disappointed face and suddenly glanced at Mu Zhao, "One..."
Concubine Jing interrupted her, "Ayu, come down quickly and let me see if your hand is cut?"
Zhao Linyu suppressed the anger in her heart, "No..."
She was taken down.
Concubine Jing drew a lot. She looked at the name on it and said in surprise: "Ah~ it's Mu Zhao. It seems that our Mu Zhao is destined to be in the limelight tonight."
Mu Zhao rolled her eyes. What she said was as if she bribed the person who made the lottery and deliberately wanted to show off.
Mu Zhao stood up and said: "As everyone knows, I have no other skills except whip dancing. I don't want to be in the limelight even more than the empress does."
Concubine Jing was slightly stunned, she didn't expect Mu Zhao to dare not give her any face.
Emperor Zhou said with a smile: "You girl, you speak like your father and you don't know how to turn around. If you can dance with a whip, then go ahead and dance with a whip. Let's celebrate it tonight, and you happen to be wearing something festive too, so go ahead."
Mu Zhao curled his lips in his heart, am I a juggler? Do I want to dance the whip for you people?
But this was not the time to be so tough with Emperor Zhou.
Mu Zhao saluted Emperor Zhou, "Yes, Your Majesty, I need a nine-section whip and a slightly more majestic melody."
"Okay, prepare it for Miss Zhao."
Mu Zhao came on stage.
The second prince began to disagree again. He said to Mu Ziqian: "Zi Qian, you must find some etiquette and music masters for Mu Zhao in the future and teach her some elegant etiquette and music."
Mu Ziqian frowned slightly and was about to speak.
Mu Ruogu said first, "Second Prince, there is nothing wrong with rituals and music, as long as people like to watch them."
The second prince said: "After all, he is a bit rude."
Mu Ziqian said calmly: "As long as my brother-in-law doesn't think she is rude, then it's okay."
The implication is, you are not my brother-in-law, you are an outsider, why do you care so much?
The second prince was choked, as if he didn't expect Mu Ziqian to say such words.
Mu Ruogu smiled, what the emperor said was right, the Mu family should unite to protect their weaknesses.
Especially protect my little sister.
Mu Zhao had already reached the stage, and a young eunuch handed him the nine-section whip.
Mu Zhao checked it carefully and found nothing wrong.
She was a little surprised that Concubine Jing didn't work hard on this whip? This chapter has been completed!
