Even the people around seemed to sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere at this table.
One by one, all eyes were cast over.
On the one hand, you can look at the unparalleled Prince Xuan more openly.
On the other hand, I also want to see where Chu Qianli, an abandoned woman, has the courage to run for the throne of Princess He in front of Prince Xuan!
Chu Qianli's calm expression showed a trace of emotional crack this time because of the Queen's words.
In particular, even without looking, you can clearly feel the chilling chill coming from the man sitting opposite.
She didn't mean to hurt him.
She really didn't know the purpose of the Queen's banquet tonight.
The maid from the Duke's Mansion who came to inform her only said that the queen requested all the ladies from the Duke's Mansion to attend, but did not give any reason.
She reluctantly came here with the mentality that doing more is worse than doing less.
Yu Linglong came soon.
Originally, he wanted to sit with Feng Yexuan, but beside Feng Yexuan, there was already Chu Huaiyu.
Yu Linglong was so angry that her face turned blue and white, and finally she sat down with several princesses.
Who made her spend a lot of effort and time to clean up this scratch on her face?
As a result, all the good positions were taken by Chu Huaiyu!
The queen didn't say much. She drank some wine and smiled: "I heard that Miss Huaiyu, one of the three most talented women in the imperial city, is also here. I wonder if Miss Huaiyu can let me see your talent?"
This is the name given by the Queen herself!
Chu Qianli suddenly seemed to understand what the queen meant.
Chu Huaiyu's current identity is Long Qianyue's daughter.
Nowadays, many people seem to know that Prince Xuan takes special care of Long Qianyue's daughter.
It used to be Chu Qianli, now it’s Chu Huaiyu.
The queen ordered Chu Huaiyu to perform at King He's concubine selection banquet. If King He failed to choose Chu Huaiyu, the next day Prince Xuan accepted Miss Huaiyu into his palace.
That is telling the world that what King He doesn’t want, King Xuan treats as a treasure!
Can you still see the face of King Xuan?
Recently, there are rumors in the outside world that the battle for the throne between the eldest prince, King He, and the fourth prince, King Xuan, is going on very fiercely.
The Queen's appearance tonight illustrates all this very well.
Whether it is Chu Huaiyu or Chu Qianli, they are both used to slap King Xuan in the face!
Feng Yexuan remained expressionless and drank quietly.
If you want to see any expression on his calm face, I'm afraid it won't be easy.
As for Chu Huaiyu, he was named and had to deal with it.
He could only come out from Feng Yexuan, walked to the center of the hall, and leaned towards the Queen and King He who was sitting next to the Queen.
The main hall was quiet, everyone was waiting to see how Chu Huaiyu, the most promising person to become Princess Xuan, would deal with it.
Chu Huaiyu met the Queen's gaze and said softly: "See the Queen."
"Huaiyu came here tonight with Prince Xuan, just to serve Prince Xuan, without any preparation."
The queen's face darkened, and the smile on her lips disappeared in an instant!
She never dreamed of it.
This damn Chu Huaiyu, looking so weak and weak, actually dared to disobey her in front of so many people!
Everyone was also stunned for a while.
Chu Huaiyu openly stated his position.
She is from King Xuan, and she is not here to choose Princess He!
This girl has a firm stand. For Prince Xuan, she would even dare to offend the Queen!
Feng Yexuan's eyes fell on Chu Huaiyu for the second time.
Probably even he was a little surprised.
This girl, who looks so fragile that she could be knocked down by the wind at any time, seems to be quite courageous.
Seeing Feng Yexuan looking at Chu Huaiyu, Yu Linglong, who was not far away, felt cold and suddenly panicked.
After finally driving away Chu Qianli, at this time, Chu Huaiyu must not be allowed to take advantage of the loophole and occupy Ye Xuan's heart!
She suddenly stood up, walked quickly to Chu Huaiyu's side, and smiled at the queen.
"Linglong and Miss Huaiyu came together to accompany Prince Xuan. Although there are no preparations, if the Queen likes it, Linglong can collaborate with Miss Huaiyu on a song. I wonder what the Queen wants?"
The queen's face can no longer be described as ugly, it was as dark as the night sky outside!
These two people were so brave, they dared to reject the concubine selection banquet she prepared for their son in public!
The queen held this banquet just to slap Feng Yexuan in the face. Who would have thought that her own face would be slapped loudly!
The Queen was so angry that her fingertips tightened, and the handkerchief was almost torn by her!
However, she still has to maintain her noble image in front of everyone.
I could only swallow this breath and squeeze out a stiff smile: "Since you are rushing to perform your skills for King He, then I am sure!"
Yu Linglong almost wanted to turn around and leave.
She has the support of the Queen Mother, so what is she afraid of as a mere queen?
However, for the sake of the next good show, she had no choice but to endure this tone!
"Get the guqin for me, girl!"
"Yes!" The little palace maid immediately turned and left.
Seeing this, Chu Huaiyu walked slowly to Feng Yexuan and asked softly: "Your Highness, Huaiyu will perform a dance for you."
Feng Yexuan did not respond, but it seemed that his very ugly expression had softened a lot at this time.
It seems that Miss Huaiyu from the Duke's family is really favored by Prince Xuan!
Yu Linglong was so angry that she secretly clenched her palms.
Chu Huaiyu is much smarter than she thought!
At this banquet, expressing one's position with such a decisive gesture certainly offended the Queen and King He.
However, he completely labeled his identity as Prince Xuan's Mansion!
From now on, no one in the entire imperial city will know that she, Chu Huaiyu, is Feng Yexuan's!
The guqin was quickly delivered, and Yu Linglong sat beside it, raising her long fingers and gently plucking the strings.
Chu Huaiyu then returned to the center of the hall and put on a beautiful dance pose.
Since it was stated that this dance was for Prince Xuan, she would naturally do her best.
She has rich experience in overpowering the whole audience and is able to do it easily.
Dancing gracefully, like a fairy.
This dance soon made her the focus of the audience.
The melody played by Yu Linglong's long fingers was getting faster and faster. She originally thought that she could use her superb piano skills to make the seemingly weak Chu Huaiyu look embarrassed.
As long as you can't keep up with her rhythm, the title of this talented girl can be given to a virtuous person!
Unexpectedly, Chu Huaiyu looked indeed delicate, but his dancing figure was as flexible as a snake!
No matter how much she speeds up the rhythm, Chu Huaiyu can keep up with it and even dance in another beautiful style.
Even Chu Qianli, who was sitting aside and admiring it, couldn't help but smile at Feng Mingzhu beside him and said: "One of the three most talented women in the imperial city, she really deserves her reputation."
Feng Mingzhu almost rolled her eyes at her.
Isn't this guy jealous at all?
Chu Huaiyu made it clear that she danced this dance for Prince Xuan, her ex-husband!
She was actually enjoying watching it.
Feng Mingzhu was about to remind her, but didn't want to. When she raised her head, she saw Feng Yexuan opposite her, eyes as cold as ice, staring at the position beside her for an instant.
