Seeing this, Ning Hua and Fu Yuechan looked at each other and smiled. Seeing how affectionate they were, they wanted to make fun of Zhao Ling, but it was obvious that she was not pretentious, and generously admitted her feelings for Meng Yuan. So unexpectedly, there was no interest in joking on their part for a while.
At this time, the highlight of the banquet, the talent show, was announced, and the topic of the two ladies, naturally turned to the show.
"Sister Ling, what program are you preparing for? It must be very special, right?" Fu Yuechan asked enthusiastically with her bright eyes.
The strange woman in the many rumors must perform a program that was different and had its own advantages. She looked expectant.
Hearing this, Zhao Ling couldn't help but feel ashamed. In addition to being able to perform autopsy, she was only good at sports such as grappling, basketball and tennis, and her talent in performing arts was really good.
So while enjoying the program that had already started on stage, she smiled casually and said, "I'm afraid I will disappoint Sister Yuechan. The program I prepared is very ordinary and nothing special."
Ning Hua pouted, and said with a resentful face: "Every year, the winner of the talent show at the Tanabata Banquet is either a prince or the princess. Like us, they just come to make up the numbers for a scene, so why bother."
"That's true." Fu Yuechan felt the same way. "However, the Anping County Lady has won for three consecutive years. Does Sister Hu think it will be her turn this year?"
Ning Hua shook her head, "I don't think so. She lost such a big face after winning last year, so she should keep a low profile this year." Having said this, Ning Hua suddenly said to Zhao Ling, "Ling, Anping County Lord, Man, you have to be careful."
Why? Could it be that you have an audience festival with Anping County Master? Zhao Ling raised her eyebrows, apparently somewhat inexplicable about Ning Hua's warning.
Seeing her puzzled, Ning Hua knew that she must probably not know the ins and outs of a day like this. No wonder, Zhao Ling had never attended this kind of gathering before, and it was normal that she had never heard of it, so she explained, "Ling, you must know that last year the Anping County Master won, and after winning, do you know what she asked the emperor for?"
Zhao Ling shook her head. Could it have something to do with this wish?
Fu Yuechan also came up with a look of interest, "Sister Hu, tell me quickly, what did the Princess Anping ask for, that she would become so embarrassed later?"
"She asked the emperor to marry her and King Xuan, but before the imperial decree to grant the marriage reached the palace, she was ruthlessly rejected by King Xuan." Ning Yu said mysteriously, with a sneering look on her face.
This incident made the Anping County Master become a laughing stock in the capital for a long time. It was only because of the authority of her mother, Princess Zhaoren, that the incident was slowly suppressed and did not have a great impact. So, it's no wonder that Fu Yuechan and Zhao Ling didn't know about it.
How could such a thing happen? Zhao Ling really couldn't figure it out, Meng Yuan didn't say that his legs were disabled, wasn't it still rumored that he was inhumane? Why did this Anping County Lady still want to marry him? It seemed that this guy's peach blossom luck was really not ordinary.
So, when Emperor Ming gave her in a marriage to Meng Yuan, she made a request for a one-year delay in the marriage date, and he didn't refuse, or did he save his face?
It was just that Anping County Lady was the daughter of Princess Zhaoren, and Princess Zhaoren was the elder sister of Emperor Ming, so aren't the Anping County Master and Meng Yuan cousins?
Zhao Ling felt a chill. Meng Yuan, it was indeed wise for you to refuse to confer marriage. There was no benefit to consanguineous marriage.
"The Lord of Anping, relying on the status of Princess Zhaoren, had always been arrogant, with eyes above the others, even as high princess in the eyes of some, but to be rejected by King Xuan so ruthlessly, it is indeed a shame." Fu Yuechan said with a little sympathy.
Ning Huan said with some worry: "If King Xuan had always remained cold-hearted and unsympathetic, it would be fine, but now he has a deep affection for you Ling, and he takes care of you in every possible way. With the temperament of the Anping County Master, I am afraid that she will hold a grudge against you. So, Ling, you better be careful."
Under the guidance of Ning Chan and Fu Yuechan, Zhao Ling also recognized the Anping County Master who was sitting at the top of the row with them. At first glance, the appearance was somewhat unexpected to her.
The arrogant Anping County Lady in the center of Ninghuakou, tonight's dress was very simple and elegant, wearing a lake blue gauze skirt, there were not too many accessories on her, and there was no cheesy feeling of jewels.
The sultry summer night, like a ray of clear spring, made people feel refreshed.
Fu Yuechan let out a soft cry. "Sister Ling, Princess Anping looks just like you."
That's right, the Anping County Princess's dress was actually similar to Zhao Ling's, and she looked gentle and elegant, neat and generous.
Due to his equal status, Meng Yuanheng happened to be sitting opposite the Lady of Anping County. Zhao Ling found that although this Anping County Master was sitting elegantly and looked indifferent, she always looked at Meng Yuan, who had a tense face and frowned slightly, intentionally or unintentionally. It seemed that she was really interested in him. She was really hapless.
Meng Yuanheng was moody and has a bad temper. What's so good about him? Originally, she thought that by virtue of his bad behavior and inhumanity, it was a no brainer, but who knew that he still had no peace.
In the chat of the three ladies, the programs were performed one by one. Fu Yuechan and Ning Hua also came on stage. Fu Yuechan was performing dance and Ning Wei was playing the pipa. Both of their performances were quite satisfactory. They were carefully measured.
At this kind of royal banquet, it was a wise choice to compete with the princesses, and always maintained a mid-level status.
Therefore, when Zhao Ling came on stage to perform, there was not much psychological burden on her.. Ning Hua stepped down from the stage just after the performance, and crossed over with her, giving her an encouraging look.
