Chapter 229 Playing Face Changing Magic
"Madam Concubine Xiao, Miss Jiang also said that it was necessary for the performance, so Miss Lu should fully cooperate with Miss Jiang!"
"If Madam Concubine Xiao continues to dwell on this matter, I'm afraid this grand banquet tonight will have to be hastily concluded."
Actually, at the beginning Feng Wuhen still trusted Jiang Yimo to be able to handle this situation easily, but the problem was that he could no longer suppress his inner excitement and eagerness!
You know, up to now, he hasn't had the chance to witness his Momo performing on stage!
Therefore, he really couldn't listen to a word of Xiao Fei's endless speech at this moment. All he could think about was to start the show as soon as possible.
After listening to the evil king's words, the old emperor showed a bit of impatience on his face: "How long do you want to stalemate with me? If you continue to waste time here, get out and get the twenty lashes of the board!" After he finished speaking, the emperor was furious, and everyone in the hall was shocked.
Seeing that the emperor was getting impatient, Lu Jialing could only swallow her anger, but she dared not say a word in defense, fearing that she would offend the emperor and suffer a more severe punishment. On the other hand, Jiang Yimo was overjoyed.
She smiled and said to Lu Jialing, "Miss Lu, let's get started! We can't wait any longer. If you can make a cry like a bird or an animal in the forest, or bark like a dog or a cat, I will change my expression."
After saying that, Lu Jialing glared at her fiercely again, thinking to herself: "Little bitch, just wait for me, wait until we leave the palace and see how I'll deal with you!" The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and her face became increasingly gloomy.
At this moment, Lu Jialing suddenly started to imitate a cat's meow in anger. The sound was sharp and piercing, as if it would pierce everyone's eardrums.
But this sudden cat's meow made the people attending the banquet hold back their laughter because of Lu Jialing's identity.
However, Jiang Yimo was not affected by Lu Jialing's actions.
The folding fan in her hand quickly passed across her face, and like a magic trick, a colorful mask instantly appeared on Jiang Yimo's face.
The mask was painted extremely delicately, with bright colors that were eye-catching and pleasing to the eye.
When the people present saw this scene, they were surprised at first, and then burst into warm applause and praise.
They never expected that Jiang Yimo had such a superb face-changing skill. Everyone was looking forward to Jiang Yimo's next face-changing.
At the same time, Lu Jialing's face suddenly turned gloomy, as if water could drip out of it.
She stared at Jiang Yimo with her eyes wide open, her heart filled with anger and resentment. She wanted to take this opportunity to humiliate Jiang Yimo and make her look bad in public, but she didn't expect the opposite to happen. Instead, Jiang Yimo became the focus of everyone's attention, while she became a laughing stock.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Jialing and Jiang Yimo, including the emperor and queen sitting on the rostrum.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for Jiang Yimo to show off her magical face-changing skills again.
However, facing everyone's gaze, Jiang Yimo appeared very calm and composed.
She smiled slightly, turned to look at Lu Jialing, and said softly: "Miss Lu, why don't you continue to call me? Everyone is still waiting to see my expression change."
After saying that, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a provocative smile.
Lu Jialing was so angry that she was shaking all over. She glared at Jiang Yimo viciously, suppressed her anger, and imitated the chirping of a bird: "Chirp~"
But this time, after Lu Jialing finished learning the bird's song, everyone looked at Jiang Yimo with anticipation, hoping to see her change her expression again.
However, surprisingly, Jiang Yimo's expression did not change like before. She was still as beautiful as before and just stared at Lu Jialing quietly.
After a while, the banquet hall began to stir. Someone couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Miss Jiang, why hasn't your face changed? It's still the same colorful mask."
There were also bursts of discussions among the crowd, people whispering to each other, confused and puzzled by the scene before them.
"Don't worry, everyone. My expression didn't change. It's because I really couldn't tell what kind of bird's call Miss Lu was imitating, so I had to ask her first."
Jiang Yimo raised the corner of her mouth slightly and looked at Lu Jialing with a smile, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, obviously trying to make things difficult for her.
When Lu Jialing saw this, her face instantly turned very ugly.
She bit her lips tightly, widened her eyes, and stared at Jiang Yimo angrily.
His hands, hidden under his sleeves, were clenched into fists, and the joints even made a crackling sound due to excessive force.
"You are so good, Jiang Yimo!"
Lu Jialing was so excited that her whole body was shaking, and her voice unconsciously rose an octave.
She secretly groaned in her heart, how could she know what bird call she had just learned?
That was just something she made up. She had occasionally heard similar sounds when she was playing in the suburbs before, so she just learned a few lines casually. There was no way to say whether it was similar to the original.
Moreover, she knew that it was easiest to learn to bark like a dog, but how could she learn to bark like a dog? That was an insulting sound. In short, it was absolutely impossible for her to learn to bark like a dog, but she really couldn't learn other sounds.
In desperation, Lu Jialing had to bite the bullet and continue trying, hoping to find an animal call that was more common, easy to learn and recognizable to everyone at once.
Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind, and she immediately opened her mouth and made a "baa..." sound, trying to imitate the sound of a sheep.
Although her bleating was as clear and melodious as the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley, everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard it.
Even the empress dowager, who had not spoken a word all night and looked pale, could not help but reveal a pale smile at this moment.
Then, the exquisite folding fan in Jiang Yimo's hand quickly and gently passed across her face.
In an instant, her face seemed to be cast by magic, showing a completely different face from before. This magical change made everyone dumbfounded and shocked!
Not only the guests in the audience, but even the emperor, the empress dowager and the queen sitting on the main stage were all stunned.
As the emperor and the supreme ruler of the royal family, what kind of rare treasures have they not seen? But this kind of superb face-changing magic is the first time they have seen it!
It’s so exciting!
Everyone present was in disbelief and thought to themselves: How could one person so easily change into two completely different facial expressions with just a small folding fan?
The scene was completely silent at this moment. Everyone was immersed in this amazing performance and could not come back to their senses for a long time...
