"Young Master Guang Hua is a very good friend of mine." Murong Qiqi clearly felt Feng Cang's grip on her hand tighten. However, she didn't think too much about it and didn't know that Feng Cang had been jealous of her and Young Noble Guang Hua for a few days now.
"Since Cousin Qiqi and Young Master Guang Hua are good friends, why don't you invite him over to introduce us?"
"He's not free."
"Oh? Is he not free, or does Cousin Qiqi not know Young Master Guang Hua and can't invite him? "
A pig brain was a pig brain after all. Murong Qiqi sighed as she looked at Wanyan Baozhu's smug face. She thought that after experiencing death once, this woman would become smarter. She was praising Wanyan Baozhu just now, but she didn't expect her to be so weak.
Murong Qiqi didn't reply to Wanyan Baozhu. Talking to a pig would damage her intelligence.
Wanyan Baozhu wanted to embarrass Murong Qiqi, but she didn't expect her to ignore her. Now, she was the one standing there awkwardly.
"Imperial Grandmother, it's your birthday today. Baozhu will play a song for you to liven things up!"
Wanyan Baozhu was smart enough to use her talent to dispel the awkwardness. When Dongfang Lan nodded, someone immediately brought a guqin over. Wanyan Baozhu sat down in front of it and began to play the song, Boundless Longevity.
Wanyan Baozhu's music was very beautiful, and people couldn't help but close their eyes to immerse themselves in the music. When Wanyan Lie saw his daughter, a strange look appeared in his eyes.
Since when did Wanyan Baozhu become so skilled at the guqin? Wanyan Lie understood his daughter's personality. Wanyan Baozhu had never been a law-abiding person, and her zither practice was only perfunctory. However, the skill she displayed now was something that could only be achieved after seven to eight years of practice.
Murong Qiqi accidentally saw the look in Wanyan Lie's eyes. It seemed that the emperor was starting to suspect his princess. How could she use someone else to expose Wanyan Baozhu's true colors? It would be best if she could kill two birds with one stone. Otherwise, it would be a waste of an opportunity.
While Murong Qiqi was thinking about how to expose Wanyan Baozhu, Feng Cang was in a terrible mood.
Wanyan Baozhu's words caused the thorn in Feng Cang's heart to appear again. Especially when he found out that Murong Qiqi's set of jewelry was made by Guang Hua, Feng Cang was very unhappy when he thought about how they had been in contact in private.
How did Young Noble Guang Hua get in contact with Murong Qiqi when he was already on guard? Could it be that they had their own channels of communication? Or did Murong Qiqi sneak out to meet him?
Thinking of Murong Qiqi showing her beauty to other men, Feng Cang felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't help but look outside the palace, as if he wanted to see through the heavy walls and see what was happening in the [Tong Bao House] and the [House of Supreme Beauties]. He wondered if Nalan Xin's plan was successful.
Now, his desire to kill Young Master Guang Hua was even stronger. In any case, no matter what, when Young Master Guang Hua showed himself, he would fight with him first! Now was not the time to talk about being a gentleman. He could not even keep his woman, so what was the point of saving face! At most, they would send the Eagle Cavalry to surround and annihilate them! He didn't believe that Young Noble Guang Hua would be able to escape under the circumstances of human flesh tactics!
Wanyan Baozhu's slender fingers drew a circle on the zither, marking the end of the song. Although this woman had a bad heart, she still put in a lot of effort into her zither skills.
"Good, good!" Although Wanyan Lie had his suspicions about Wanyan Baozhu, he still had not figured out the problem in this matter. Thus, he maintained his fatherly attitude and rewarded Wanyan Baozhu with a pair of lion statues carved from white jade. They were about the size of a palm and looked very precious.
"Thank you, Imperial Father!"
Wanyan Lie's reward made Wanyan Baozhu lower her guard. She had forgotten that her zither skills would bring about a fatal disaster.
Seeing the smile on Wanyan Baozhu's face, Murong Qiqi felt sorry for this pig-like woman. Can't you see that the emperor is purposely flattering you to make you lower your guard so that you can give yourself away?!
Wanyan Baozhu didn't notice, and Murong Qiqi wouldn't warn her either. This woman was as stubborn as an unkillable cockroach. Since Wanyan Lie was already suspicious of her, she might as well get someone else to do the dirty work! Wanyan Baozhu provoked her again and again, treating her like a soft persimmon!
Before Murong Qiqi could finish thinking, Wanyan Baozhu pointed the gun at her again. "Imperial Grandmother, I heard that Cousin Qiqi's zither skills are outstanding. I wonder if she would be willing to play a song for your birthday celebration?"
Damn you! Murong Qiqi raised her middle finger at Wanyan Baozhu. This woman was really insatiable. Why did she keep staring at her?! Could it be that they had a feud? Murong Qiqi had forgotten that Wanyan Baozhu's mother, Zheng Min, was indirectly killed by her.
"Oh, Qiqi knows how to play the zither?" Wanyan Lie was delighted to hear this. "Your mother is talented. Since you are Mingyue's daughter, you shouldn't be too bad!"
Even if Murong Qiqi was unwilling, she couldn't embarrass Wanyan Lie in front of everyone. Just when Murong Qiqi was about to stand up, she heard a commotion outside the hall.
"What's the matter?" Wanyan Lie frowned. Jing De hurriedly trotted out. After a while, he trotted back. "Your Majesty, a few palace maids are talking about the fire at the Treasure Store and Supreme Beauty Workshop."
"What?!" Murong Qiqi stood up in shock. How could this be? How could there be a fire at the Treasure Store and Supreme Beauty Workshop? How could this be! With Fang Kui and Fang Tong around, how could there be an accident!
Murong Qiqi's attitude made Feng Cang feel uncomfortable. Was she worried about Young Noble Guang Hua? What was their relationship?
"It's just a fire at a shop. What's there to be surprised about?"
Wanyan Baozhu saw Murong Qiqi's expression, but she was thinking about something else. What was she pretending for? Pretending to be close to Young Noble Guang Hua and pretending to care about him to raise her status? How shameless, relying on men for everything!
Wanyan Lie was also shocked that something happened to the Treasure Store and Supreme Beauty Workshop. Young Noble Guang Hua might be someone from the pugilistic world, but he had a great reputation. The women in his harem were very fond of the clothes and jewelry in his shop. Now that he heard that these two places were on fire, he was surprised.
