Palace banquet begins

Murong Yue was not interested in those dancer performances, after eating for a while, she began to look around, and found Bai Yiyi sitting not far away, drinking silently.

This depressed look made Murong Yue a little worried, just as she sighed, she suddenly met Ru Yan's eyes, and she smiled slightly at herself.

Murong Yue twitched the corners of her mouth, then lowered her head to fiddle with the dishes on the plate.

"Bai Muyang has already admitted her identity to the outside world." Chu Huaishang suddenly said.

Of course she knew this, the system had already indicated that the task was completed, she just didn't expect that Bai Muyang would bring her to the palace banquet.

Seeing that she was not in high spirits, Chu Huaishang raised his hand to pinch her small face, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just bored."

As Murong Yue said, she saw something and was stunned.

Chu Huaishang followed her gaze and found that she was looking at Chu Xuan, his eyes turned cold, he almost forgot that the little girl once liked his nephew!

"My lord, what is Chu Xuan doing recently, it seems that I haven't seen him for a while."

Murong Yue asked curiously, if she hadn't met today, she would have almost forgotten that such a person existed.

"Sent to the south of the Yangtze River to deal with the flood."

Unaware that the tone of the person beside her was not right, she continued, "So that's the case, then he has done a good deed for the people."

"It took almost three months, such incompetence is considered a good deed!" Chu Huaishang sneered.

"...", Murong Yue glanced at him, then at Chu Xuan, suddenly realized something, and poked his arm, "My lord, are you jealous?"

She thought that she was praising Chu Xuan because she still had feelings for Chu Xuan, so she was unhappy.

Chu Huaishhang snorted coldly and didn't answer. For such a stupid person as Chu Xuan, is there any need for him to be jealous? It's ridiculous!

"Actually, Chu Xuan and I..."

Murong Yue prolonged her voice on purpose, seeing that although he didn't care on his face, he still couldn't help pricking up his ears to listen, she thought it was funny.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it."

Chu Huaishang: "..."

He suspected that Murong Yue did it on purpose, but he didn't have any evidence, and he couldn't ask. If he asked, it would mean that he was jealous of her and Chu Xuan!

A certain person suffered from being dumb and still couldn't attack, Murong Yue's mood immediately improved, and she looked at him with her chin propped up, "My lord, why don't you think this performance is anything new?"

"It's just a performance for fun. Few people will watch it seriously like you."

Knowing that she was changing the subject, Chu Huaishang still answered.

However, it reminded him of the dance she performed for Ruyan in Wanhualou last time, and her slender figure, which was particularly memorable.

Murong Yue found that he was looking at her strangely, as if he was staring at prey, so she quickly looked away.

She didn't expect that what she said casually was nothing new, and some people thought so, and even suggested to the emperor that it's better to let people come out to perform their talents to cheer everyone up.

The emperor happened to be a little bored, so he agreed to his suggestion.

On such an occasion, the minister's daughters naturally want to take this opportunity to show off their talents, so as to win the attention of the prince or prince, and marry into the royal family in the future.

There are all kinds of talents at once, which is more interesting than just watching dancing.

Suddenly someone proposed to let Bai Muyang's two daughters perform as well, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

The matter of Bai Muyang's illegitimate daughter was aroused in the capital, even the emperor had heard about it, not to mention those ministers, especially those ministers who were at odds with him, naturally they would not let go of the opportunity to ridicule him.

A daughter who was raised in the mansion was in stark contrast to a daughter who popped out of nowhere and even stayed in a brothel!

How could Bai Muyang not know what their plans were, but it was hard for him to say anything due to the presence of the emperor.

Now that the matter has come to an end, he can only let them go up to perform, so as not to spoil the emperor's interest, after all, because of this matter, the emperor's attitude towards him is not as good as before.

It doesn't matter to Ruyan, she often performs in Wanhualou, it's just a routine for her, it's just a change of place.

But Bai Yiyi didn't cooperate much, "Daughter's hand was injured a few days ago, so she can't play the piano."

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was a lie, but she was about to say that, and Bai Muyang's face instantly sank because of her words.

When Ruyan was performing, Bai Yiyi quietly left her seat while everyone was not paying attention.
