Chapter 209 I really think I’m a dish
  The voices of discussion were kept low, but they couldn't help but keep talking.
  Shen Zhuoxi had long been accustomed to these doubts and didn't take them to heart. After all, what others said had nothing to do with her.
  Besides, the original owner really didn't learn anything. She had been in Xiaoxiang Tower since she was five years old, and she survived until she was killed two months ago. This body is still burnt, so she can't be considered fake.
  But when those words fell into Princess Dundup’s ears, everything changed.
  She studied hard and practiced hard. Knowing that she was going to come to Shengdu to get married, she specially invited a good dancer from Dongchen State to teach her how to dance.
  Even if she had some skills on her body, the ribbon was soft and difficult to control. God knows how many times she had been injured in order to be able to perfectly control the sword with the ribbon.
  She thought she would be a blockbuster and outshine everyone, but shen Zhuoxi actually counterattacked her perfectly.
  No matter how unconvinced she was, she had to admit that Shen Zhuoxi danced better than her.
  Moreover, Jing Muling actually lowered her status and played the piano for Shen Zhuoxi himself, willing to be a foil!
  Every inch of Dunzhu's heart was filled with unwillingness and jealousy, and she wished she could tear Shen Zhuoxi apart right now.
  Just when Dundup wanted to speak the least, the queen called her: "Princess Dundup, the sword dance is your Qiang dance. In your opinion, how does Miss Shen Er dance?"
  "Very good." Dunzhu suppressed the thoughts in his heart and forced out a smile: "I was going to give some rewards to the second lady, but unfortunately, the rewards from the emperor and the empress are better than what I have at hand."
  "It doesn't look good if I bring it out this time. Let's forget it. The second lady is generous, so she won't be angry, right?"
  The queen frowned slightly and turned her gaze to Shen Zhuoxi.
  Shen Zhuoxi was neither humble nor arrogant. He took two steps forward and said in a voice as clear as an oriole leaving the valley: "Princess Dunzhu comes from a foreign race. She doesn't know that the rules of Shengdu are normal."
  "The emperor and the empress are the king and mother of the country. It is my honor to give them to me. No matter how powerful the Rongqiang people are, they are still a little insignificant in front of the Dongchen Kingdom."
  "Princess Dundup is a subject like me, so it is certainly inappropriate to give me a reward, so there is no need to blame yourself."
  In one word, Dundup's arrogance was shattered.
  To put it bluntly, she only has the status of a princess, similar to most of the people here.
  The emperor and empress had satisfaction on their faces, but neither of them planned to speak. Dunzhu turned pale and said, "Although the second lady's words are reasonable, I am a princess after all."
  "Although we are all ministers, in the end we are still slightly superior to you, so we should be rewarded."
  I really treat myself as a dish.
  Just as Shen Zhuoxi was about to speak, Jing Muling's voice sounded first: "Miss Shen Er is Princess Yu who has been personally appointed by the Emperor. She is about to get married. Her status is naturally more valuable than your status as a princess of a small clan."
  "Besides, with the rewards from the Emperor and the Queen, the second lady really doesn't like your things, nor does she care about them!"
  The emperor glanced at Jing Muling and rarely got angry and scolded him for being late. He followed his words and said, "King Yu was too straightforward. After all, Princess Dunzhu is a princess of the Rongqiang tribe and she is still a little girl."
  "The emperor taught you a lesson." Jing Muling said this without any apology.
  The emperor didn't want the others to continue this topic, so he asked Jing Muling: "King Yu knew that a guest was coming from afar, why was he so late?"
  "Before I went out, my eyes suddenly felt unwell, which delayed my time. When I came in a hurry, the banquet had already started. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Jing Muling stood up and said.
  The imperial doctor had also visited him many times to see his eyes. The emperor knew well that he could not blame him, so he only said: "Since it is because of his eyes, he should send someone to report it to save Gu He and the Queen Mother from worrying."
  "It's my brother, isn't it?" Jing Muling said, turning her head slightly to gesture to Zhengyang.
  Zhengyang quickly picked up the piano and put it in Jing Muling's hand.
  Jing Muling said to the emperor: "My brother got a guqin by chance. I wanted to give it to others as a reward today, but I can't see with my eyes. I don't know what to do with it. Can I leave the piano to the emperor?"
  The emperor's gaze lingered on his eyes for a moment and then he looked at the piano in his hand and said: "Miss Shen Er's dance is really amazing. You just played the piano to accompany me. If this piano is not as good as this, give it to Miss Shen Er."
  "Thank you, Your Majesty." Jing Muling handed the piano to Zhengyang again.
  Zhengyang understood and took the piano to Shen Zhuoxi.
  Shen Zhuoxi didn't expect Jing Muling to speak for her, so she turned her head and looked in his direction.
  Jing Muling was wearing a light gray robe, with crescent-white dark lines rolling around the cuffs and collar, making his face look like a crown jewel.
  Junyi's face originally had no expression, but when Shen Zhuoxi looked over, it softened a bit. He didn't know if it was her imagination.
  Jing Muling and the Emperor exchanged words with each other, but the topic had already been diverted. Dunzhu couldn't care less about his status, so his face darkened and he said no more.
  Duozha spoke at the right time and said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness King Yu, my little sister is here for the first time. I didn't know that Miss Shen Er and His Highness King Yu had decided to get married. Her words were rude. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."
  The emperor said that those who don't know are not guilty, and children's jokes are not worth paying attention to.
  Jing Muling, on the other hand, snorted coldly: "I never care about ignorant people. Your Majesty is too worried."
  Duozha was calm and would not fall out with Jing Muling. Instead, he praised Shen Zhuoxi and said: "Miss Shen Er has never been exposed to the sword dance of the Rongqiang people, but she can perform an amazing dance. It is really surprising."
  "No wonder I heard someone mention the name of the second young lady at the inn earlier. It is not shameful for me to lose to the second young lady today."
  Shen Zhuoxi nodded in the direction of Duozha and said: "Your Majesty, I'm too generous. I only tried briefly, and I didn't mean to block Princess Dunzhu's edge."
  These words may seem self-effacing, but in fact they are another slap in the face to Dundup.
  With a little effort, you can surpass the hard-working Dundup.
  Dunzhu wrung his hands and tugged hard on the hanging tablecloth. Unable to hold back, he moved the tablecloth in front of him.
  The tea cups and wine glasses in front of her also overturned because of her movements, and they all fell on her.
  "Your Majesty, your servant has behaved inappropriately." Dunzhu took the opportunity to stand up and salute the Queen: "Please punish me."
  "It doesn't matter." The queen knew that Dunzhu felt uncomfortable at this time, so she said, "Go back and change your clothes."
  "Thank you, Your Majesty." Dunzhu breathed a sigh of relief and saluted, "I will take my leave now."
  Looking at her back, Princess Yuqin snorted and said, "Look at her airy look. This is not a small place like the Rongqiang people, and they reward people at every turn."
  "Fortunately, Zhuo Xi, you are very powerful. You can defeat her in one fell swoop, showing off like a peacock with its tail spread wide. After she was defeated, she knew how to hide!"
  "Princess Dunzhu dances well, and I am also lucky." Shen Zhuoxi smiled slightly and said, "She is really capable."
  "Nothing can compare to your talent." Wang Yurou whispered: "I was still thinking just now that if no one suppresses her arrogance, the emperor will definitely be angry."
  Wei Zhiting also followed: "Zhuo Xi's sword dance is really amazing. It is a little softer than Princess Dunzhu's, but it does not lose its momentum. Many people will not have this talent after practicing for a lifetime."
  Several people were talking, and the ladies at the same table also complimented and complimented them.
  After talking a lot, Shen Zhuoxi smiled, nodded, or said nothing.
  Jing Muling had been paying attention to the movements on Shen Zhuoxi's side. Like him, Duo Pang's gaze also fell in the direction of Shen Zhuoxi intentionally or unintentionally...
