Chapter 120 A dance that amazes everyone

Hearing what she said, Concubine Chang's face burst into laughter. Concubine Li, who was sitting on the other side of the emperor, had curiosity in her eyes. The other ladies were even more jealous, wishing they could get it too.

Two magic little pills.

The emperor saw that Concubine Chang was happy and waved his hands with satisfaction.

"I am also pleased that Princess Yu can make Concubine Chang Ai so happy. I will reward you later."

When Luo Lan heard this, his face showed neither surprise nor joy. He bent down and curtsied, and replied lightly:

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wu Linlin, who wanted to see Luo Lan's joke just now, saw this scene and bit her lip angrily. It was just two bottles of small broken pills. Concubine Chang was happier when she saw it than when she saw her giant jade Ruyi. The emperor even rewarded her.

?If I had known better, I would not have given such expensive gifts.

Thinking of this, she rolled her eyes cunningly, raised the handkerchief in her hand, wiped the corners of her mouth, and said with half-squinted eyes:

"Princess Yu's gift is so unique, but just giving it as a gift is not enough. It would be too monotonous! Why don't you dance or play some music to cheer up the fun?"

As soon as she said this, anyone with a discerning eye knew that she was deliberately trying to embarrass Luo Lan.

Who doesn't know that she comes from the countryside, where can she dance? Who can play music? Maybe she doesn't even know what the instrument looks like.

Leng Xi saw Luo Lan sitting silently, with a joking look on his face, and said to Wu Linlin:

"What are you doing, Sister-in-law? Today is my mother's birthday, and it's not a dance party. Besides, not everyone is like you, Sister-in-law, who has been taught to sing and dance since childhood."

After saying this, he shouted to the servants outside: "Please give me the gift I prepared for my mother and concubine!"

"no."

Just when Leng Xi was about to clap her hands and call her servants to deliver the gifts she had prepared, Wu Linlin opened her mouth eagerly and interrupted her directly,

"Fifth brother, what you said is wrong. Among the princes, only Princess Yu and I are the principal concubines. Today is my mother's birthday. On this happy day, it is appropriate to perform a dance on behalf of the royal family for the guests who come to celebrate the birthday."

After saying this, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Luo Lan disdainfully, "Is it possible that Princess Yu doesn't know how to do it? Even if she doesn't know how to do it, you can just hum a piece of the ditty you used to hum when you were playing pigweed when you were a child."

As soon as she finished her sarcastic words, everyone present burst into laughter.

When the emperor saw this, he frowned.

"Okay, don't make any more trouble."

Seeing the displeasure in the emperor's tone, everyone present stopped laughing, and the atmosphere became a little stiff for a while.

Luo Lan originally didn't want to be in the limelight, but if she didn't let Wu Linlin see her today, she might become the laughing stock of her in the future.

So, when the emperor finished speaking, she stood up directly, pretended to know nothing and leaned down and said:

"Your Majesty, ladies and gentlemen, since the Crown Princess has proposed to let Luo Lan perform a dance, although Luo Lan is not good at dancing, he still has some skills. Today, on the birthday of the empress, Luo Lan will perform a dance and perform a dance. Please don't laugh at me."

Seeing that she agreed, Wu Linlin's face suddenly showed a proud and mocking look, and she quickly raised her voice and said:

"Why are we laughing at you? You are from a bad background and you must not have learned much. Just jump a few times to cheer up the fun. If it doesn't work, you can also learn to do bunny hopping."

Her words once again made the people present burst into laughter.

Luo Lan was not annoyed, she smiled at her, raised her eyebrows and said:

"Can you lend me the Princess's pipa?"

When Wu Linlin saw that she wanted to borrow her pipa, she almost had the urge to laugh out loud.

Not everyone can play the pipa if they want to. Without a few years of skill, the sound produced will be very unpleasant.

So, she nodded generously, twitching the corners of her mouth disdainfully, "Of course, Princess Yu, just don't play for too long or damage my strings."

Luo Lan smiled slightly and took the pipa from Min'er's hand, came to the main hall and glanced at everyone.

Yu Qiaoqiao, who was sitting next to her, was holding the handkerchief tightly, as if she was more nervous than she was.

Leng Xi's brows were also furrowed, as if he was worried that she would make a fool of herself.

Concubine Chang and the Emperor both had expressions of curiosity on their faces, while Concubine Li had a calm look on her face, seemingly unsurprised, but in fact she was full of curiosity about Princess Yu.

Luo Lan placed the pipa diagonally in front of him, lifted his slender fingers gently, slowly fell on the strings, and slowly picked the strings, one by one, little by little, forming a melodious tune that slowly flowed out.

At the same time, her feet danced lightly and slowly, without any rush or impatience, as gently as flowing clouds and flowing water.

After a while, the sound of the piano became more and more urgent. She held the pipa with one hand and played lightly. The light blue sleeves suddenly flung out. Then she stepped back a few steps with her feet, and then quickly spun in circles.

The joyful dance, the graceful and skillful movements, and the charming expression are as charming as a peacock spreading its tail, and as fascinating as a fairy descending to earth.

This song can only be heard by people in heaven, how many times can it be heard in the human world.

Everyone present listened and watched in ecstasy, including the emperor and the two concubines, who had a look of amazement in their eyes.

The sound of the piano was still as melodious as jade, and the dance steps were still slow and measured. Although she used both hands and feet, she was not panicked at all, her expression was relaxed, and she seemed to be at ease and without any pressure.

Even playing the piano and dancing together, no one in the Daning Kingdom can do it so far. Luo Lan can be said to be the first person in history.

Wu Linlin, who wanted to watch the fun just now, turned cold-faced. She had always regarded herself as the most talented woman in Daning Kingdom, but now it seemed that her title and limelight were about to be taken away by this woman.

Thinking of this, she angrily picked up the banana on the table in front of her, peeled it off, and threw the banana peel in front of Luo Lan while everyone was mesmerized.

Just when she was about to step on it, Leng Xi, who had quick eyes and quick hands, suddenly stood up from his seat. He turned around and kicked the banana peel away. It seemed unintentional, but it was actually intentional.

He half-bent, stretched out his hands, and turned around in a circle, as if dancing with Luo Lan, then turned his eyes, glanced at Wu Linlin, and returned to his seat.

When the song ended, Luo Lan stopped and stood still, and the room became quiet.

At this moment, the emperor suddenly took the lead in applauding,

"Princess Yu is really hiding her secrets. I was very surprised when she performed this dance."

When everyone saw this, they also applauded and kept praising him.

"It danced so well..."

"Yeah, you dance so well, I'm really ashamed of myself."

"..."

Concubine Chang's face turned gloomy, she forced a smile and praised:

"Yes! I really didn't expect that Lan'er, who grew up in the countryside, would have such good dancing skills, which really impressed my mother and concubine."

Li Fei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke in agreement:

"Dancing to clear the shadows, how can it be like being in the human world? Princess Yu's dance is really eye-catching, I am afraid it is unique in this country of Daning."

Listening to everyone's praise, Luo Lan didn't care and wasn't too happy. She lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, "The emperor and the two empresses praised me very much."

After saying that, she walked up to Wu Linlin, presented the pipa with both hands, raised her eyebrows and smiled softly at her,

"Thank you very much for the pipa, Crown Princess. I will return it to you now."

Wu Linlin looked at her coldly, with anger in her eyes.

Not only did she steal the limelight from herself, the crown princess, but she almost crushed herself into the dirt.

She angrily said to Min'er beside her:
Chapter completed!
