The row of ladies began to show off their talent when the emperor started the event. These beautiful ladies sang, played guqin, make poem and dance.
The whole banquet become lively with this talent show with many young master of good family began to find a wife candidate for themselves.
Up until now, it has been an hour already but Duan Hui Nan and Li Shi Ying haven’t been up to show their talent yet. This was obviously another plot of Duan Hui Nan to make she and Li Shi Ying perform at the very last.
Seeing this pattern, even Chen already realize what this Duan Hui Nan about to do. She would first perform her talent and then challenge Li Shi Ying to perform too.
The problem is…Li Shi Ying couldn’t sing, couldn’t dance, couldn’t paint, couldn’t play ancient instrument, couldn’t make poem and such!
“Miss…after that Duan Hui Nan perform she will ask you to perform too…” Chen whispered to Li Shi Ying when Duan Hui Nan was currently dancing, performing her talent.
Duan Hui Nan dance was truly very good, even the best out of other ladies dance truly suit her status as this country princess.
Duan Hui Nan dance was very beautiful like a goddess dance making everyone in the room were enchanted by her dance.
If Duan Hui Nan dance was this good…what would happen to Li Shi Ying then? She couldn’t even dance right?
“Hm…” Li Shi Ying too, thought the same as Chen. Looking at Duan Hui Nan who would occasionally stealing glance at Chen and her, she knew this brat would made her perform after she finished dancing.
With Duan Hui Nan good dance, if she went up right after her and couldn’t perform anything better, the people would gossiped her to be not talented
That would be the greatest plot to embarrass her!
In this era, art talent for women was as important as strength for men that’s why aside from making themselves beautiful, women in this era also practice hard to be able to made a good art performance just like now.
That’s why a woman who weren’t talented in art, would be seen as a failure and mostly would only be able to ended up as a concubine.
This might be the reason why Duan Hui Nan wanted to bring her down with talent show performance. Somehow that Duan Hui Nan must have knew that she couldn’t perform any art show!
“Wow! her highness is truly talented!” the people beside Li Shi Ying began to clapped hand making Li Shi Ying snapped out from her thought.
She saw Duan Hui Nan had finish her dance this means…next would be her turn!
As what Chen and Li Shi Ying expected, after receiving endless praises from the guests, Duan Hui Nan twirled her dress cutely as she said humbly.
“My dance couldn’t be compared to Lady Li talent! I have seen her performance before and it is really out of this world!” With a smile, Duan Hui Nan successfully mentioned Li Shi Ying again in order to bring her down.
Heh Li Shi Ying. This princess knew that you couldn’t do any art performance! The man she hire to inquire about Li Shi Ying, told her about it so…this would your end game Li Shi Ying!
You will embarrass yourself right here and right now!
“Oh I don’t know about it. Lady Li, would you please grace us with your performance? I’m sure everyone here want to see it” The emperor eyes brighten after he heard what Duan Hui Nan said.
In order to made this party exciting, a talent show from a translator would be good! Maybe Lady Li would show a unique dance or something. This would benefit a lot for him!
The guest would later mentioned how grand his birthday banquet was so it really wasn’t a bad idea to ask for Lady Li to perform!
The emperor obviously had high hopes for Li Shi Ying to made his own birthday banquet grander with her performance. Even Duan Hu Yan was also expecting to see what kind of performance Li Shi Ying would show to them.
The guests knowing Li Shi Ying identity and her beauty she shown earlier, also anticipated Li Shi Ying performance with high hopes. It would be super rare to see a translator showing their performance!
Could it be magic performance or unique dance? They couldn’t wait!
Looking at the people expectant eyes, Li Shi Ying face darken as well as Chen face. Both of them knew the higher these people hope for her performance to be something unusual, the greater the shame she would receive if she failed to liven up these people expectations!
Duan Hui Nan, you are really vicious!
“Miss you…” Chen was worried that Li Shi Ying reputation would be ruined if she perform badly. After all he knew for sure how Li Shi Ying wasn’t talented in art at all.
She could sing well but strangely Li Shi Ying couldn’t sing any song of this era. She also couldn’t make poem, paint, dance or anything that’s why he was worried for his bunny!
“Don’t worry you forget I still have a trump card” Li Shi Ying smile as she remembered her talent.
She did have 1 thing she was good at!
