Chapter 77 Sword Dance (2/2)
“What strife ah?This woman just makes a big deal of nothing.She always believed herself to be the first talented woman in the world and is so proud of it, so she usually looks down on me, but I don’t bother with her.There was one time when she pissed me off, and I pushed her down, that’s all.I didn’t expect her to bear the grudge all these years!” Hua Mu Qing spilled all her complaints to Lan You Nian.It seems that even after all these years, the second princess still suffers unhappiness over it.
“What to do?It’s almost this junzhu’s turn.Nian’er meimei, what should I do?If I lose, that woman will definitely find many different ways to torture me!” Hua Mu Qing said desperately to Lan You Nian.
“Mu Qing jiejie don’t you have any confidence?” Lan You Nian asked.After all, in her eyes, Hua Mu Qing was a wonderful woman.She didn’t like those shallow women.
“Aiya, Nian’er meimei, you don’t know, if it’s fighting, then I have confidence, but if you want me to make a poem, I really can’t do it!” Hua Mu Qing said with frustration.
“Who said that you must make a poem?” Lan You Nian winked at Hua Mu Qing, “Doesn’t Mu Qing jiejie know how to sword dance?How about Mu Qing jiejie do a dance?It’s best to use a sword to dance amongst the chrysanthemums.This counts as being related to chrysanthemums.Just call it chrysanthemum sword dance.Isn’t that good?”
“Yeah!In any case, I only know how to do that.Whether or not I can win isn’t important.At least I won’t lose face.Nian’er meimei, you’re so smart!” Hua Mu Qing hugged Lan You Nian and immediately walked out of her seat, heading towards the open space to perform.
“This junzhu is she able?Don’t lose face and end up in tears in the end!” Lan Mo Xian said to Jing Wu An, obviously the words were criticizing, but it was full of concern.
“Look at you, you seem worried about junzhu?” Jing Wu An said deliberately.
“Who’s worried for her?What’s there to worry about?Anyways, I’m looking forward to seeing her make a clown of herself.Why would I worry for her?” Lan Mo Xian stiffened his neck as he denied, but clearly, Jing Wu An did not believe him.Even He Chu Yang who sat beside them had a look of ‘I don’t believe you’.
“Ai, what do you guys mean by this?” Lan Mo Xian demanded.
“What meaning can we have?We’re just seeing a certain person say one thing and mean another.It’s quite interesting that’s all!” Jing Wu An looked to Hua Mu Qing who stood in the performing area.
“Did not!You guys can’t frame me like this!” Lan Mo Xian also paid attention to Hua Mu Qing in the field.They grew up together, so he knew Hua Mu Qing did not have any talent.Seeing the second princess’s current attitude, she will definitely be difficult towards Hua Mu Qing.Lan Mo Xian was worried inside.
Concerning Lan Mo Xian’s ‘even if you kill him, he won’t admit it’ denial, Jing Wu An and He Chu Yang simply ignored it.
Hua Mu Qing stood in the field.Suddenly, she drew a long sword that hung from a guard’s waist, then came to the chrysanthemum garden, and started to fluidly dance with the sword and flowers.The pieces of chrysanthemums that were sliced by the sword fluttered around Hua Mu Qing.Hua Mu Qing’s sword dance was accompanied by the softness of a woman and a man’s heroic spirit.It can be considered unique, making people’s eyes brighten!
When Hua Mu Qing ended the sword dance, there was a burst of praise all around.These praises were genuine.Many people did not expect the junzhu they thought to be domineering actually had such talents.The way she danced made the sword dance beautiful beyond belief!
Hua Mu Qing gleefully returned the sword to the guard and returned to her seat, energetically exclaimed to Lan You Nian, “Nian’er meimei, you are truly able.You didn’t see how ugly the expression on that woman’s face was.Indeed, playing the zither and singing songs isn’t suited for me, rather brandishing weapons is more to my liking!”
Lan You Nian glanced at that second princess and indeed saw the second princess’s disgruntled expression while the empress sitting high above was also a face of displeasure.Lan You Nian eyed the garden of chrysanthemums that have been ruined by Hua Mu Qing and instantly understood why the Empress’s face was so.She only told her to sword dance amongst the chrysanthemums, maybe add a little chrysanthemum to the show, that’s all.She didn’t expect Hua Mu Qing’s power of destruction was so frightening.This garden’s chrysanthemums have been wrecked!
“Mu Qing jiejie, Empress’s face is even uglier” Lan You Nian snickered.
“What?Why?It wasn’t the eldest princess I was competing with,” Hua Mu Qing was puzzled.
“Look at the garden, and you will know!” Lan You Nian pointed at the garden.Hua Mu Qing tilted her head over to the garden, then Hua Mu Qing bowed her head without saying a word….
“Haha!How is this junzhu sword dancing ah?It’s really brutally deflowering!” He Chu Yang looked at the chrysanthemums that were wilting and couldn’t help laugh with Jing Wu An.
“Hmph, no semblance to a woman at all!” Lan Mo Xian also looked at the destroyed chrysanthemums and sneered, but his eyes were full of laughter.
“Oh?But I feel junzhu’s dance wasn’t so bad.There was both a woman’s charm and man’s strong-will.In this garden, is there one maiden who can be like junzhu?” Jing Qu An praised.
“Hmph!Crude!” Lan Mo Xian was still poison-mouthed.
“Jing Wu An, don’t talk to Mo Xian anymore. He likes to say opposite things the most!” He Chu Yang said to Jing Qu An. Jing Qu An smirked suggestively at Lan Mo Xian, making Lan Mo Xian discomfited.
