Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 969

After the music "Ode to the time of peace and prosperity", the dancers entered the hall. Yun Shang then heard another piece of music entiled "The green waist" come out and the girls danced with its beautiful tune. The girls' bodies were so soft as soap, so beautiful and so charming.

The maids served a hot dish. Luo Qingyan lowered his head and picked up a piece of sparerib for Yun Shang. He smiled and said, "I used to eat this dish in the Taiji Palace a few days ago. I thought it tasted good, and I hoped you to have a taste of it. But I forgot it. Today, I finally saw it."

Hearing this, Yun Shang was quite moved.. She lowered her head and ate it. The spareribs were fried, crispy and fragrant. As Luo Qingyan said, they tasted good.

Yun Shang was enjoying her meal when she felt someone was looking at her. She looked up and saw a woman was staring at her over there. That woman didn't withdraw her gaze until she noticed Yun Shang's glance.

Yun Shang's expression changed slightly, but the smile at the corners of her mouth turned a little cold. She remembered that the woman was the daughter of Li Ye's, who was on the list of the Autumn Test. At the banquet after the last autumn test, this woman showed an extreme interest in Luo Qingyan in front of her, and also provoked her by the way. Yun Shang didn't take it seriously at that time, but now the woman seemed to still have something that shouldn't have been in her eyes just now. She appeared to be very persistent.

The courtiers present took the opportunity to drink a lot, so after a few songs and dances, some people began to be bold. They raised their glasses and walked unsteadily towards Luo Qingyan.

"Your Majesty, your majesty is so wise and mighty. I'd like to propose a toast to you," an official said. Yun Shang didn't recognize the official. Judging from the color of his robe, his rank should be above the third grade.

The corners of Luo Qingyan's mouth curled up slightly. He raised his glass and said, "I heard that Lord Sun is seldom drunk. I'd like to have a look today. Let me empty my glass first."

Luo Qingyan raised her head and drank up all the wine in his glass.

Seeing this, Lord Sun laughed and said, "Great! Your Majesty is so forthright. I really admire you."

Since someone had started, the officials in the hall were no longer restrained, and there were many of them coming to propose a toast. Luo Qingyan didn't refuse. They just greeted each other with a few words, and then drank up.

Yun Shang's eyes fell on the woman who had been staring at her. She also wore a long carmine dress today. In the late winter, the dress looked very thin, but more elegant than others.

She didn't know what she was thinking and kept touching the glass in front of her. Yun Shang smiled and turned her attention away.

Seeing another man leave with a toast, Yun Shang whispered to Luo Qingyan, "Don't drink too much."

Luo Qingyan didn't respond, but gently held Yun Shang's hand. Yun Shang was about to say something, when a voice came, "Your Majesty, Here Li Lanyi would like to propose a toast to you."

Yun Shang turned around and saw a girl in carmine in front of her. She had an outstanding appearance, especially her watery eyes, very bright and attractive.

Except for the music, the voice in the hall suddenly turned much lower. Yun Shang looked around and found everyone's eyes were looking at them from time to time. They must be watching how Luo Qingyan would deal with the situation.

Yun Shang lowered her head and thought that the girl was brave. If she didn't have a wrong stand, Yun Shang would appreciate her way of doing things. She was so bold that she didn't even try to hide it, but unfortunately, she was confronting the wrong person.

Luo Qingyan twirled his empty glass in his fingers and looked up at Li Lanyi. Then he turned to Yun Shang and said, "It's rare for a woman to propose a toast. Shang'er, drink this glass of wine with Miss LI. Wish her a good husband as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Yun Shang smiled and asked softly, "How old are you, Miss Li? Although Miss Li was not born in a very good family, the good thing was that Mr.Tanhua was now an official in the court as well as a backbone of the country. Besides, Miss Li is beautiful and talented. In the Jin City, few people can compare with you. If you like someone, just tell me. I'm willing to make the decision for you."

Li Lanyi didn't look well. Hearing Yun Shang's words, she bit her lips and said, "among all the civilian and military officers at court, I only think that his majesty is mighty and capable. Your majesty, I want to marry his majesty. Would you like to make the decision for me?"

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, with an obvious surprise in her eyes. She didn't expect that she would give her such a response. Luo Qingyan's attitude was obvious just now. Yun Shang was afraid that she would feel embarrassed, so she gave her an out. But she didn't expect that Li Lanyi would refused it and even tried to step on her head.

The hall suddenly quieted down. And the music happened to pause, too. All was so quiet at the moment that a pin could be heard to drop.

Yun Shang smiled. Before she spoke again, Luo Qingyan's cold voice was heard, "I don't want to choose a concubine. Even if I choose a concubine, I won't choose this kind, who has neither talent, nor good appearance. Worse still, she is so dissolute in front of so many people. I don't want to become a joke in front of the whole world."
