C142 Imperial Concubine Selection Feast(2)

Under the eunuch's loud shout, Murong Jing, whom Lin Miaoting had met once before, was escorted by a group of veiled women and walked into the center of the hall.    

    

"Zheng ~" The sound of the zither moved and the women quickly surrounded Murong Jing in the middle along with the sound of the zither.    

    

"Zheng ~" Another sound was heard and everyone, including Murong Jing, put on their appearances. Along with the graceful music, their bodies moved lightly like dancing butterflies. Just by lightly shaking the beautiful wings of the butterflies, they could shake everyone's heart.    

    

"So beautiful." Lin Miaoting praised sincerely.    

    

"Yes, Murong Jing's mother is the former Empress of South Chu. Her dance that year shocked the four countries. This Murong Jing had learned to dance from her mother since she was young. How could she be low?"    

    

"Oh ~ No wonder she looks so good."    

    

"Good. As expected of the Southern Chu's Princess Jing. She has the demeanor of your mother back then." On the dragon throne, Xuanyuan Hong praised. As for whether he was sincerely praising her or being polite, he gave Murong Jing a very high evaluation.    

    

"Thank you, Uncle Xuanyuan." Murong Di blessed his body and made a half-squat bow. With a wave of his sleeve, the dancer beside him bowed and left.    

    

"Uncle Xuanyuan, Royal Father asked me and brother to come here to celebrate your birthday. I wish you good fortune and good health."    

    

"Uncle Xuanyuan, I wish you a good life and a good health." Murong Di stood up and walked to the center of the hall. He clapped his hands lightly and saw two people carrying something up. "This is the auspicious bird of my Southern Chu. It looks very similar to a phoenix. I wish you both good health and good longevity with the help of this bird's good fortune."    

    

"What a good life and good health." Xuanyuan Hong was overjoyed.    

    

Murong Di walked to the red cloth and opened it.    

    

There was a green one and a white one. There were two peacocks in total. They had a few feathers on their heads. Their long tails dragged the ground like a closed fan.    

    

"Isn't this a peacock? It's just that white ones aren't very common." Lin Miaoting was slightly disappointed. "It would be great if the screen could be turned on."    

    

She did not know if the heavens knew. Was Lin Miaoting's wish or was it intentional by some people? In short, it was done on purpose. ...    

    

"Six six six, the peacock has opened its screen." Lin Miaoting was secretly delighted and focused on the peacock that had opened its screen. She was especially focused on the rare white peacock.    

    

It was said that this white peacock was the most tsundere among all the peacocks. Usually, it would not open its screen at all. Today, she had seen it once in a blue moon.    

    

"Congratulations, Uncle Xuanyuan. There is a saying in my Southern Chu that if this peacock opens its screen, it will be an auspicious omen. Congratulations, Uncle Xuanyuan."    

    

Murong Di's words did not seem like he was lying, but Lin Miaoting could only twitch the corner of her mouth. There was only one thought in her heart. This ancient man was really able to pull the strings. Who didn't know that when a peacock saw something beautiful, it would compare with it? Right now, which person in this house isn't wearing very bright and beautiful clothes? Especially Murong Jing, she was even more gorgeous. ...    

    

Lin Miaoting only stared at Murong Jing's wide sleeves. The color and patterns of the sleeves were just like the tail of a peacock. She was standing on the side, and at this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Murong Di.    

    

"This water is really deep!" Lin Miaoting could not help but sigh.    

    

"Looks like my little girl knows a lot. How did you know that this peacock will open its screen?" Xuanyuan Yu looked at Lin Miaoting with a gentle gaze.    

    

"Ahem ~" Lin Miaoting was not used to seeing such a sudden change in Xuanyuan Yu. Where is your Broken Sleeve image? Did you give up just like that?    

    

"It's just that my guess was right. Coincidentally! Coincidentally!" Lin Miaoting repeated again and again.    

    

Oh ~ coincidentally. " Xuanyuan Yu seemed to be in deep thought for a moment. "Coincidentally, my little girl's eyes just happened to see Princess Jing's sleeve."    

    

Xuanyuan Yu smiled.    

    

"Ah, yes!" Lin Miaoting was embarrassed. When did this guy pay attention to her? Was it fun to expose her?    

    

"There is a kind of bird in the south that looks like a phoenix and is happy to compete with others. " I'm afraid that it's referring to this peacock. " Xuanyuan Yu looked at the two peacocks that had been spreading their wings.    

    

"I can borrow that little bastard to take a look." Lin Miaoting welcomed him.    

    

"Nephew, your niece is considerate. Take me to say hello to Royal Father."    

    

"Alright, Uncle Xuanyuan." Murong Di and Murong Jing saluted at the same time.    

    

"Long time no see. Di Er and Jing Er are already so old now." At this time, the Empress who had been sitting quietly beside Murong Hong opened her mouth.    

    

"Aunt Wanrong is well." Murong Di and Murong Jing greeted. The Empress Xie Wanrong was friends with the former Empress of South Chu before she left the pavilion, so she was very concerned about Murong Di and Murong Jing.    

    

"Di Er is becoming more and more handsome now. This is because I don't have a daughter, otherwise I would have betrothed her to you. Little Jing'er is also becoming more and more beautiful. "I remember the first time I saw you, you were still a little baby. At that time, I told your mother that I would bring you here. As a daughter-in-law. "    

    

Wan Rong's words seemed like she was just reminiscing about the past, but the meaning between the lines was self-evident.    

    

"Thank you, Aunt Wan Rong, for your praise. I wish Aunt Wanrong eternal youth." Murong Jing walked forward and greeted Xuanyuan Qi, who was sitting at the head of the group from time to time. Everyone knew the message conveyed by her eyes.    

    

"Haha, good. This little mouth is getting sweeter. Why don't you stay for a few days to accompany me, this old hag?" Xie Wanrong laughed.    

    

Jing'er will obey. " Murong Jing and Murong Di left.    

    

...    

    

It seemed that Empress Xuanyuan was indeed in love with Murong Jing. However, Murong Jing was definitely more than qualified to be the Crown Princess. If the Crown Prince married Murong Jing, it would also increase his strength.    

    

"The Crown Prince of Aochen Kingdom greets ~"    

    

Lin Miaoting raised her eyebrows when she heard the duck-like voice that was always present.    

    

"Greetings, Your Majesty Xuanyuan." The Crown Prince of the Aochen Kingdom cupped his hands and bowed. He was dressed in a red dress with white bubbles and a white belt embroidered with white jade. Although he couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, the aura he gave off was definitely a bonus.    

    

"Proud Morning Nation's Crown Prince, Long Yize. Back then, the nine sons of Aochen Kingdom competed for the position of Crown Prince at the same time. This person only used one night to overthrow everyone's plans. And that night, he killed the other eight princes and their accomplices that he could kill. "    

    

All of them? " Lin Miaoting could not help but be shocked, "No, only one of the eight is still alive, but he is currently under house arrest."    

    

"The Emperor of Aochen doesn't care? He lost eight sons in an instant." Lin Miaoting was shocked, even though she knew in her heart that there was no poison, no husband, and no one could fight back.    

    

However, the Emperor of Aochen Kingdom was their father. Didn't he know that tigers don't eat their children?
