Ji Lingxue tilted her head and thought for a while before saying, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and this song is called Bright Moon."
Ji Yuqing was speechless. As far as she knew, there was no song called Ming Yue in the piano score. Since this fool Ji Lingxue wanted to stand out, she would cooperate with her.
Having made up her mind, Ji Yuqing changed into a white dance dress and came out gracefully. She put on makeup again, and her bright red lips were particularly eye-catching at this moment.
Just when everyone focused their attention on Ji Yuqing, the sound of a soft piano rang out, ding-dong like flowing water in a stream, or like moonlight shining quietly on the earth.
Ji Yuqing frowned, somewhat unhappy with Ji Lingxue's preemptive move. Being very competitive, she naturally did not want to accept that Ji Lingxue could suppress her. She tapped her toes lightly, and danced like a white butterfly.
The sound of the piano was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and Ji Yuqing danced along with it, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, but in her heart she cursed Ji Lingxue eight hundred times.
Xiao Yichen clasped his hands behind his back and looked at Ji Lingxue with deep eyes. There was nothing graceful about Ji Lingxue's piano playing movements. Her fingers plucked the strings so quickly that he looked dazed.
Ji Lingxue's cooking skills have been excellent since she was a child, but she has never liked learning the piano. Since when did she start to change? She learned to play the piano, and also learned to hide her shortcomings.
The sound of the piano climbed over the mountains and gently turned on the clouds. The moonlight became even gentler, like water illuminating all the sorrows and joys, cold and warmth in the world.
The attention of everyone in the hall was no longer attracted by Ji Yuqing's dance. They were quietly immersed in the world created by the piano music and were lost in thought.
Ji Lingxue looked up at Ji Yuqing who was spinning and dancing. Coincidentally, Ji Yuqing's gaze turned to her, and the two sharp lights met in the air silently.
Ji Yuqing: Ji Lingxue, when did you learn to play the piano? Aren’t you not interested in the piano
Ji Lingxue: Because the prince likes it, I study hard.
When the song ended, the whole audience was in an uproar. Ji Yuqing was already sweating profusely, and her legs and feet were weak as she knelt on the ground.
Ji Lingxue stood up and bowed to Xiao Yimo, "Your Majesty, are you satisfied with the song I played?"
Xiao Yimo nodded and clapped his hands, saying, "Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect Princess Chen to have such high piano skills. I like it very much. I will give this Xuanbingqin to you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ji Lingxue was not polite and immediately knelt down to express her gratitude. Ji Yuqing, who was kneeling beside him, bit her lip with tears in her eyes. How sad it was that her favorite thing was taken away by someone else
Ji Yuqing's hands hanging by her side gradually clenched into fists. She was unwilling to give up...
The banquet ended happily. Ji Lingxue sat in the carriage holding the imperial zither, while Ji Yuqing and Xiao Yichen, who were sitting opposite her, both looked unhappy.
The atmosphere in the carriage was very strange, but fortunately Ji Lingxue didn't have to endure it for too long, as they had already arrived at the palace.
"Ji Lingxue!"
Seeing Ji Lingxue standing up and preparing to get off the car, Xiao Yichen, who had been silent all the time, suddenly called her.
Ji Lingxue turned around and subconsciously hugged the piano in her hands, fearing that Xiao Yichen would snatch it away.
Xiao Yichen turned to look at Ji Yuqing and said, "You go back first. I have something to say to the princess."
Ji Yuqing nodded and got out of the car with a lot on her mind.
Ji Lingxue watched Ji Yuqing's desolate back and sighed. In fact, Ji Yuqing was quite pitiful.
Xiao Yichen raised his hand and waved it in front of Ji Lingxue's eyes and said, "Did you hear what I just said?"
Ji Lingxue came back to her senses and looked at Xiao Yichen with a confused look on her face.
Um... just now... did he say anything
Xiao Yichen approached Ji Lingxue, gritted his teeth, and asked word by word: "Don't think you can get away with it by pretending to be stupid. Did you plan the incident in the palace?"
