Chapter 173: Five Emperors' Sister, Is This Inferiority
f potatoes, almost making me spit out my dinner! Are you deliberately doing this Besides, when did I agree to go out with you" Su Qingying didn't buy his excuses at all, her hand veins throbbing viole..."Ying'er, what secret schemes are these two mischievous master and servant concocting again" Su Ziyue raised an eyebrow, looking at them both with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
Hearing this, the master and servant looked at each other and both had a sly and shameless smile on their lips. They said in unison, "Heh heh, secret!"
"You guys! Truly, master and servant are one." The corner of Su Ziyi's eye twitched, a faint smile unconsciously tugging at the corner of his mouth.
It's truly the case of "near vermilion, it becomes red; near ink, it becomes black!" Now Xi’er has been completely led astray by that little rascal Ying’er.
As its name suggests, Ink Dance involves using long sleeves dipped in ink to create art as the dancer moves gracefully. The swirling movements paint a picture on a pristine white screen, demanding both exceptional dance skills and artistic talent.
After finishing the dance, Su Mo'yun quickly and skillfully painted a landscape ink painting. She flicked her long sleeves, but didn't even glance at her work. With great confidence, she walked to the center of the table, "Father Emperor, Mo'yun has finished painting. Mo'yun's clumsy brushwork, please don't dislike it."
Although he claimed his paintings were amateurish, the expression on his face was one of undeniable pride.
"Good, bring it up!" Su Chengming's face, which was rarely seen with such gloom, faded a little, and he smiled brightly.
As soon as Su Chengming finished speaking, two palace maids quickly brought the screen painted by Su Mo'yun just now and placed it in the middle of the banquet for everyone to admire.
When the two palace maids retreated, everyone looked up at the table. At that glance, the expressions on their faces froze instantly, turning red with shame and panic.
Su Mo Yun was facing away from the paper screen, so she didn't see the varied expressions on everyone's faces, nor did she see what she had painted. She knelt in the middle of the room with her head held high.
"Is this what you just did" Su Chengming's temples twitched, startled by the content she had drawn. He forced down his anger and said.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Su Mo'yun replied with a curt nod, her expression haughty.
"Wow, amazing, simply amazing! Big Sister Si Huang's painting skills are truly remarkable!" Beside her, Su Qingying's voice of astonishment suddenly rang out, instantly drawing the attention of everyone present.
"......Seeing her openly admiring the painting, everyone was dumbfounded, feeling as if thunder were rolling in the sky."
“......” Su Chengming's anger was choked back. His facial expression went blank for a moment, and he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his forehead.
"…" Su Ziyi had a dense wall of black hair growing at the back of her head, and silently reached out to block her line of sight.
This girl, she's becoming less and less like a lady!
"Oh my! Brother, please don't block my view! Just look at her posture, her lines, her elegance—it's truly exceptional!" Su Qingying brushed aside Su Ziyue's hand and, pulling Xi'er behind her, began to enthusiastically comment on Su Mo'yun's painting.
"My younger sister praised me." Su Mo Yun didn't hear anything amiss, and was very pleased with Su Qing Ying's comment.
A mischievous gleam flashed across Su Qingying's obsidian eyes as she smiled sweetly, "To be able to create such a masterpiece, your Highness must have spent quite some time researching these things."
"That's it." Su Mo'yun said arrogantly.
As soon as these words were uttered, a wave of gasps echoed through the room, and Su Chengming's face turned even more livid.
However, Su Mo Yun apparently didn't notice the eerie atmosphere on the scene. Her back was straight as a board, and she couldn't stop feeling proud and ecstatic in her heart.
"But..." Su Qingying raised her pretty eyebrows, but then suddenly changed the subject, "Fourth Sister, your painting is indeed good, but in this situation, it's a bit inappropriate, don't you think It might make people feel uncomfortable!"
"What's the matter Has Fifth Imperial Sister become self-conscious" Su Mo Yun proudly raised her eyebrows, not hearing anything amiss.
Su Qingying and Xi'er held back their laughter until it was painful. They nodded solemnly, "Yes, more than just inferiority It's simply shameful!"
"Don't be too self-deprecating, Wu Huangmei. If you want to learn in the future, I'll teach you." Su Mo'yun said proudly, puffing out her chest and speaking generously.
“No, no, no! It’s alright, Big Sister. Keep this for yourself and study it slowly. I have no interest in learning something so distasteful. I’m afraid Father will break my legs if he finds out.” Feeling the scorching gazes of her older brother and father, Su Qingying hurriedly waved her hand with a smile suppressed.
Upon hearing this, Su Mo'yun immediately frowned displeasure and looked at her unpleasantly, "What do you mean by that, Fifth Sister"
Su Qingying was not going to beat around the bush anymore. She blinked her bright eyes and shyly pressed her hands against her cheeks, "Fourth Sister, I understand you have that special preference, but you can just admire it privately, can't you There are so many people here, you don't know how to be more restrained. How could you draw such a... spring palace picture at this banquet"
"What did you say The Palace Diagram!" Su Moyun was taken aback, her face instantly changing color as she quickly turned her head to look at the screen behind her.
One could see on the screen behind, two completely naked figures painted with such meticulous detail and lifelike precision that they were breathtaking. Their poses were both alluring and tantalizing, making everyone present blush.
Su Mo Yun stared in disbelief, her eyes wide, her mind exploding like a thunderclap. "No! This can't be! I clearly painted the Landscape of Mountains and Rivers! This... Father, listen to Yun'er explain, it's not like this! Someone must have framed me!"
“Humph Framed Under the eyes of so many, with so many pairs of eyes watching, you say someone framed you Do you think I’m blind! How could I have such a shameless daughter!” Su Chengming slammed his fist on the table, his forehead bulging with anger, his chest heaving violently.
"No, Father, Yun'er has been wrongly accused..." Su Mo Yun shook her head frantically, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Enough! A princess of a whole nation, acting in such an embarrassing manner at a banquet! You have disgraced the royal family! Down you go! From this day forward, without my permission, you are not to step out of the Fusheng Palace for half a step! Reflect on your actions properly!" Su Chengming was furious and directly shut her door.
"Ying'er, how did you manage to do that" On the other side, Su Ziyi furrowed his brows, his phoenix eyes filled with confusion as he racked his brain, unable to figure it out.
Even if Su Mo Yun were foolish, she would absolutely not have created such a Spring Palace painting at a banquet. Yet, under everyone's watchful eyes, the painting was indeed hers. How could this be
"Brother Emperor, have a closer look at that paper screen," Su Qingying smiled, but did not answer. Instead, she pointed at the paper screen in the middle of the banquet and left him hanging, her eyes flickering with a dark gleam.
Humph, if it weren't for the fact that Su Mo'yun is still the Emperor's daughter, just based on her daring to have someone poison her food, she deserves to die a thousand times over! I'm letting her off easy this time!
"What's wrong" Su Ziyi looked for a long time but couldn't figure it out. For the first time, he felt that his brain wasn't enough.tive and captivating.Su Qingying swallowed nervously and retreated silently, her eyes darting around evasively as she searched for an opportunity to escape. "Um, what You must have heard wrong...Damn...
