Chapter 208 Sisters Compete for Beauty

Shangguan Miaoge sometimes raised his wrists and lowered his eyebrows, and sometimes relaxed his bare hands, his body swayed gracefully with his feet as a point, wanting to fall but not falling.Following her graceful dancing posture, the streamers fluttered with the wind, her pair of light and beautiful eyes were still on the verge of speaking, and everyone was mesmerized watching.

The music gradually intensified, and I saw those women surrounded her again, and the silk ribbons in their hands fluttered out.Almost at the same time, Shangguan Miaoge lightened her feet and flew over the silk belt in the air, her clothes fluttering like a flying fairy.Then, it fell lightly.

It took a long time for the dance and music to end, and everyone woke up like a dream, applauding and applauding again and again.

"Miss Shangguan's dancing skills are really amazing!" Long Xiangtian applauded and praised.

At this time, Shangguan Miaoge led the rest of the dancers, walked up to the emperor, and bowed gracefully: "My daughter, Shangguan Miaoge, see Your Majesty, may my emperor live long and live forever!" Then he bowed to the queen and the queen mother, saying: " The servant girl has met the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and may the Empress Dowager live a long and prosperous life!"

The queen mother smiled emotionally, "Your dance today can be regarded as an eye-opener for Aijia. It is worthwhile to let Beichen's number one beauty come to dance this song for Aijia."

Shangguan Miaoge bowed and said: "The empress dowager is joking, today is the empress's birthday, it is my honor to be able to do my best for the empress."

The more the Empress Dowager looked at her, the happier she became, she took a few glances at her and said, "Your child, your filial piety has made Ai's family very satisfied." She smiled and turned to the emperor and said, "Emperor, this child is dancing today! Well done, it deserves a reward!"

The emperor smiled and said, "Let's reward her with gold and silver. How does the queen mother think?"

The queen mother nodded, and took another look at Shangguan Miaoge.

The queen laughed and said: "If Miss Shangguan is to be rewarded, her sister Shangguan Fuxue should also be rewarded."

The queen mother was stunned for a moment, puzzled, and she explained: "This 'Flying Dance' was originally choreographed and performed by the third lady of Shangguan. Later, she fell from a height and was forced to replace it with the third lady of Shangguan. The lady is here to perform."

The queen mother didn't expect that there was such an inside story in this dance. She was startled, but she couldn't believe it: "I saw the child just now, but I didn't see any clues. I didn't expect that she was the hero behind it. However, Aijia felt a little bit If you don’t believe me, call that child up, Ai’s family will have to take another look.”

When Shangguan Miaoge heard that the emperor wanted to reward gold and silver, she was somewhat disappointed, but the queen mentioned Shangguan Fuxue at this time, for fear that she would be at a disadvantage when it comes to rewarding meritorious deeds.

Shangguan Fuxue was amazed at the last part of Shangguan Miaoge's flying into the sky. Her original design was to soar into the air, but due to technical limitations, it was somewhat difficult.Unexpectedly, Shangguan Miaoge actually changed that paragraph into a short moment. Although it didn't have the planned effect, it was still very amazing.It seems that in this respect, he still underestimated her.

Shangguan Fuxue walked to the front, the Empress Dowager was still smiling, but there was a bit of doubt in her smile, and said: "Ai Jia is a person who likes seeing is believing, and always likes to prove it with his own eyes. The Empress said just now that this dance is You figured it out. Aijia doesn't believe it, so you take this opportunity to prove it to Aijia."

Shangguan Fuxue lowered her eyes and said: "Empress Dowager, you have already watched Feitianwu just now, and it would be a bit boring to watch it now. I have a present for the Queen Mother, so why not take advantage of this time to give it to the Empress Dowager?" Dedicate this gift to the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother looked at her suspiciously, "What kind of gift is it, let Aijia see it."

Shangguan Fuxue said calmly: "Going back to the Empress Dowager, my daughter's gift is a painting. But this painting, my daughter wants to draw it for the Empress Dowager herself in front of the Empress Dowager."

The queen mother became interested, raised her eyebrows and said, "You girl, you can show off! Quickly show the painting to Aijia!" Then she asked people to go down to prepare ink and wash.

Shangguan Fuxue hurriedly said: "Empress Dowager, this painting of my servant is not an ordinary ink painting, so I must use the tools prepared by my servant." As he spoke, he looked at the guest seat on the left, passed the crowd, and cast a wink at Nangong Lieyan .Seeing Nangong Lieyan give orders to the follower.

The Empress Dowager nodded, and still asked the eunuch to prepare the table and other items, in case of emergencies.

Not long after, I saw Nangong Lieyan's entourage fetch things, spread them out one by one on the table, and put a blank screen beside it.

I saw Shangguan Fuxue took a paintbrush, quickly dipped a paint, and made a hasty stroke on the screen.Everyone frowned and looked at each other, but they couldn't see what it was.Just below, discuss it.The voice was high and low, mostly discussing the question of who is more talented, Shangguan Fuxue or Shangguan Miaoge.

Shangguan Fuxue was not affected at all, but the brush in his hand sometimes looked like a swimming dragon, sometimes like raindrops, and it gradually became clear that it was a painting of "Peonies Striving for Spring".

Although the "Peony Striving for Spring" is elegant, it is nothing new.

Everyone thought they had seen Shangguan Fuxue's thoughts, and those who had criticized her just now immediately raised their eyebrows and said triumphantly, saying that this girl has no skills!
Seeing this, the queen mother's interest gradually faded, so she said to the queen: "I think, this girl's ability has to be seen again."

The queen was also confused about Shangguan Fuxue's plan, so she nodded embarrassingly when she saw what the queen mother said.

Shangguan Fuxue slowly finished writing, and there was silence all around, but everyone no longer looked forward to it. When they suddenly realized, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

The queen mother glanced at it and said: "Although this "Peony Struggles for Spring" is good, there are already many scrolls like this in Aijia Palace, so it is really unnecessary."

Shangguan Fuxue still bowed and bowed, "The Empress Dowager, what I want for this painting is not the effect in front of me, please wait patiently, the Empress Dowager."

The queen mother didn't know what medicine was sold in her gourd, she wanted to push it away but couldn't bear curiosity, so she looked at the painting suspiciously.

At this time, the sun is in the sky.

The painting gradually began to undergo strange changes.

First, a weak flower bud in the corner of the painting slowly bloomed, and it still exudes a fresh brilliance like the dew after the rain.A drop of dew like a Lizhu in the center of the core trembled slightly as if blown by the breeze.

Everyone looked dumbfounded, couldn't help being curious, stretched their necks, and waited quietly for other flowers to bloom.

Sure enough, the other flowers on the painting also bloomed one after another.

Just when everyone thought that everything should be over, the flower unexpectedly wafted a faint fragrance of peonies for no reason, giving people the illusion that they were really in a peony bush.

However, countless pairs of eyes were looking at it sincerely, and the butterflies in the garden all flew towards this side, landed on the painting, and refused to leave for a long time.

The Empress Dowager was amazed, and everyone burst into applause.

The Empress Dowager said in amazement: "It turns out that the main event is yet to come!" She sighed, and couldn't help laughing and asked: "You child, how did you do it?"

Seeing the astonishment on the Empress Dowager's face, Shangguan Fuxue smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, please forgive me for not being able to tell you the secret. Otherwise, I will have nothing to show off in the future. It's just This screen, if the Empress Dowager wants to see today's scene again in the future, it needs to be moistened with water first and placed in the sun in sunny weather. The amount of water used for wetting should not be too much, just wet it. Use water Too much, over time, will not only destroy the original color of the painting, but also gradually lose its effect."

The queen mother knew that she was joking, and she didn't mean to blame her. She just laughed and said, "You child, you have a good idea. Not only can you make up such an outstanding dance, but you can also create such a magical thing. Ai Jia is really happy in his heart." Happy. I heard people praise you before, but Aijia only thought you were the same as other talented women. Looking at it now, it is really unexpected!"

The more the Empress Dowager talked, the happier she became, even happier than when she praised Shangguan's wonderful song just now.

Shangguan Fuxue saluted neither humble nor overbearing: "Thank you Empress Dowager for your ridiculous praise!"

The queen mother was in high spirits, and she said to the emperor: "This child is very filial. It should be rewarded!"

The emperor nodded and said: "As long as the queen mother is happy, the minister will certainly reward her. Just like her elder sister, she should also reward gold and silver."

"Your Majesty!" The Empress shouted at this moment, the Emperor was taken aback, and turned to look at her: "Empress, are you not satisfied with my reward?"

"Your Majesty has misunderstood. Today, the whole world is celebrating. As long as it can make the birthday person happy, the emperor should reward you no matter what." The queen smiled gracefully, and then said: "It's just that the concubine remembered something and wanted to take advantage of it. At this time, tell Your Majesty."

"Oh?" The emperor raised his thick black eyebrows, "What is it that makes the empress want to tell me at this time?"

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that you went on tour with the Second Prince in disguise a few days ago?"

"Remember." The emperor nodded, still puzzled.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember the person who saved you when your old illness relapsed outside the palace?"

"Remember." The emperor nodded again, "Empress, you should stop being a fool in front of me. If you bring up that matter at this time, could it be that the person who saved me that day is among the guests?"

The queen couldn't help smiling, "Your Majesty, you are not among the guests, but right in front of you."

"Right in front of you?" The emperor wondered, then hesitantly looked at Shangguan Fuxue and Shangguan Miaoge.Shangguan Fuxue's apprenticeship with Shen Wen, he had also heard people talk about it in the palace, and even heard that she has superb medical skills, and I'm afraid she has already surpassed the blue.

The emperor then asked: "The empress is talking about—Shangguan Fuxue?"

The queen nodded happily, "I didn't know about that at first. However, the prince of Chu was present at the time, and the prince of Chu knew the third lady of Shangguan before he knew that the person who saved His Majesty that day was Shangguan Fuxue." The prince of Chu also found out about the Third Miss Shangguan when he told his concubine."

When the emperor heard this, he looked at Shangguan Fuxue's face thoughtfully, and murmured: "No wonder when I saw these eyes just now, I felt familiar."

Shangguan Miaoge was listening to him, and he couldn't hold his breath for a long time.Thousands of calculations have been made, but the queen will help her even if she doesn't count!Ren Shangguan Miaoge was thinking about it, but he couldn't figure it out.The queen has only been with her for a few days, so why is she willing to help her? !
The queen said at this time: "Your Majesty, since Miss Shangguan is your savior, won't it be too thin to just reward gold and silver?"
