Chapter 40

Mo Jingli walked into the venue in high spirits.

Beside him are two women, one is Luo Qishan, daughter of the current empress and Luo Taishi, and the other is his favorite concubine Shan Jiashu.

He came to his exclusive seat and sat down, while the empress and concubine Shu sat on his left and right sides respectively.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live! The queen is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!" The officials and their families immediately knelt down and saluted.

Mo Jingli nodded with a smile, and stretched out his hands: "Everyone is flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Mo Jingli enjoyed the current scene very much. His eyes swept over every corner of the venue one by one, and finally fell on Zuo Junyao.

A person wearing a veil, no need to guess he knows who it is.

Unexpectedly, she dared to come along this time, her courage has grown a lot.

Looking at Mo Zhanyang again, he found that he was frowning, not knowing what to think.

Mo Jingli smiled, and finally his eyes fell on Mo Jiuxiao again.

"Liu Huangdi, how is your health these days? Don't force yourself at today's banquet. I allow you to leave early if you feel unwell." Mo Jingli said thoughtfully.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern! My brother is fine." Mo Jiuxiao replied lightly.

Mo Jingli was not angry at this rude reply, he just nodded with a smile, then turned his head and said softly to Concubine Shu: "Does Concubine Ai feel cold? If it is cold, let the palace maid take me The cloak, don't get sick again, you know?" The gentle tone made people feel tempted.

Concubine Shu's absent-minded eyes came back to her senses because of his words, she hurriedly restrained her mind, and blessed herself slightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty! This concubine knows."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Mo Jiuxiao who was in the audience from the corner of her eye, and then quickly lowered her eyes.

Mo Jingli seemed to be in a good mood suddenly, he raised his wine glass, and said to the crowd: "Come on, dear friends, I will have fun with you today! Do it!" After speaking, he raised his head and drank it down in one gulp.

Everyone hurriedly raised their wine glasses and replied loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" They also drank the first glass of wine.

Immediately afterwards, some palace people stepped forward to fill the cups for everyone.

"Today's palace banquet, who can cheer for it?" Mo Jingli asked.

As soon as these words came out, there was a delicate female voice from the audience.

"The daughter of the people is willing to dance a song for the emperor, please grant the emperor's permission!"

Zuo Junyao looked back, and it was Nie Yingqiu who stood up.

Moreover, she found that before Nie Yingqiu finished speaking, there were many sighs, and Zuo Junjin who was beside her also whispered: "Just a moment of hesitation, and someone took the lead!"

She was very surprised, but also felt very novel.

This is really different from modern times!She remembered that when she was in school in her teens, whenever the teacher asked someone to perform or answer questions on stage, the audience not only did not raise their hands, but also buried their heads low, lest they would be selected.

Unexpectedly, in this ancient time with backward thinking, women are so proactive.

It seems that they have worked hard to find a good husband and son-in-law!

Nie Yingqiu graciously walked to the open space in the center of the venue, and gave a big gift to the three people on the stage.

"Which family are you the daughter of? What's your name?" Mo Jingli asked with great interest.

"Back to the emperor, the girl's name is Nie Yingqiu, and her father is Nie Qian, the servant of the Ministry of War." Nie Yingqiu looked directly at Mo Jingli, trying her best to appear dignified and virtuous.

"Then what dance are you going to do?"

Nie Yingqiu watched from the corner of her eye at Mo Jiuxiao, who was watching herself, and she was also the focus of the audience.

She replied confidently: "The name of the dance that Minnv wants to dance today is 'Yuyi Dance'."

After finishing speaking, she tore off the coat she was wearing, revealing the specially prepared makeup inside.
