Bab 33: Challenged by a princess
Ming Shu looked at the boy beside the Emperor with the other princes.
Zhao Song.
'Long time no see'
The men who once coldly looked at her from above and discarded her, was nothing more than a feeble boy now. He didn't pass any of the majesty that she knew for would emit in his older form.
Ming Shu realized that beside surprise because of the disparity between what she was seeing and the memory she has, she felt nothing about the boy in front of her. Zero. Naught.
All the love, the hate, and anger fades even before she died, but the sadness that she thought it would be there didn't manifest itself. In the place that he hold in her heart, now it was filled with so many more people, who, Different from him, loved her back.
He was just like any other strange that she could meet in the street. Understanding the weight she finally got free from, Ming Shu couldn't help but laugh.
"Do you like the Fifth Prince? What a shock, I thought you would like boys with a more well-built body, like Wang Xizhi or the Second Prince"
"What are you even talking about? With each eyes did you my liking to the 5th Prince?"
"With both of this eyes. You were almost staring at the Prince and then started laugh merrily if it's not like are you perhaps mocking him?"
"What's with you and mockery? I was looking at a random thing and laughed at something I remembered. Don't go spouting nonsense left and right"
"But you-"
"Stop arguing with me I am trying to pay attention to the dance"
After the dance and the wine, every officer got up and payed a tribute to the Emperor. In their Dynasty they had the tradition of offering something precious to their Sovereign as a show of loyalty each year.
After having all the tributes received the Emperor ordered the food to come in. As deserving of the Imperial Palace, the feast served was mouth watering. With many different types of dishes, the Imperial Banquet was as lavish as his name.
Little Zigui, Who has returned to the table with Ming Peng before the tributes, couldn't help but drool. Shaking Ming Shu sleeves, his eyes shone with greed.
"Jiejie, can we eat all of this?"
Ming Shu chuckled as she saw her Meimei gulping and paying extremely attention to her next words.
"Yes we can. But remember to eat slowly and with manners. Also, remember that we can always start to eat after the Emperor, the Empress And our Elders start"
Hearing that he needed to wait for all of this people to start, Zigui felt discouraged. What have he done to suffer such a torture?!
Seeing the bitter face displayed by both of her siblings she had to control herself to not laugh out loud. Was at this time that high-pitched voice reverberated across the hall.
"Father, don't you think it would be more entertaining if the subjects daughters performed for us with their talents?"
Almost every girl on the hall had the urge to order the Princess to shut up. For crying out loud, they wanted to eat okay?
"Oh, that's an interesting idea Jing'er. How should we start?"
"Oh Imperial Father, It would be unjust if I suggested something and didn't take the initiative. As for who comes next... I constantly heard about the Ming Sisters from my music tutor and would be delighted if they could play each a song for us"
"What a mindful child. So be it. You can start and the Ming Sisters will follow after you, after that the misses can voluntarily present their talent for Us"
"Thank you Father. Bring me my guqin "
The eunuch entered with a beautiful guqin made with emerald jade. Moving to the center of the hall, Princess Jinghua sat down and started to play. The music she played called 'High Mountains and Flowing Waters', a difficult piece that because of its flow was beautiful and heartwarming. As she finished the song, all those present had a smile on their faces. The last note was followed by thunderous applauses.
Princess Jinghua slightly bowed to her Father. After thanking she turned to Ming Shu's table.
"Now, could one of the Ming Sisters grace us with her talent?"
