The host is cute and charming, who doesn’t love the charming wife?

As smart people, everyone could see from the details of Xiao Chenjing's actions today how much he cared about the sudden appearance of Concubine Ruan.

Naturally, I wouldn't say or do anything without thinking at a birthday party like this.

So the scene continued to be lively, especially after the talent show started.

Everyone was immersed in the performance, drinking and chatting happily.

As the person involved and occupying one of the best seats, Ruan Miaomiao also saw such a wonderful performance for the first time.

I can only say that she is worthy of being specially trained by someone for the appreciation of noble people.

This was much better than anything she had seen before.

"How about it?"

Xiao Chenjing turned his head and did not forget to ask Ruan Miaomiao's opinion, "You are the protagonist of this banquet today. If there is anything you want to see, just ask. It's okay."

Although he spoke softly, everyone present was paying attention to every move on the stage.

Anyone who was paying attention saw this scene.

Ruan Miaomiao glanced at him shyly, as if she was flirting with Xiao Chenjing in public.

With a smile on her face, she said, "These are eye-openers for me, so I am satisfied. Your Majesty, why don't you ask the Imperial Concubine if there is anything she wants to see?"

The tail behind Ruan Miaomiao couldn't be hidden at all.

As she said this, she deliberately looked at Tang Rouer.

She is really not good at hiding it, and her face clearly says: Yes, yes, I did it on purpose, isn't it great~

Xiao Chenjing never liked people in the harem acting like this. Seeing her performance, he subconsciously frowned, not understanding where her malice towards Concubine Xian came from.

But then I saw the simple and straightforward expression on her face, and I didn't know how to react.

Where can such a "simple" person come from, who still wants to harm others like this?

It's better to go back to the furnace and rebuild it.

However, this was Ruan Miaomiao's birthday party, and Xiao Chenjing didn't want to expose the incident directly and embarrass Ruan Miaomiao.

In his opinion, these words definitely did not come from Ruan Miaomiao's heart. It must be something said by someone around her that subtly planted the seeds in her heart.

He had already made up his mind that he must make things clear with Ruan Miaomiao when they were alone together at night.

Don't ever get caught up in the harem culture.

Ruan Miaomiao didn't know that her performance was so poor that most people saw through it.

But everyone was observing Xiao Chenjing's reaction, and seeing that he didn't say anything, they naturally didn't dare to speak.

In an instant, the originally lively scene turned cold because of Ruan Miaomiao's words.

Ruan Miaomiao blinked and subconsciously looked in the direction of Mu Zian.

However, Mu Zian was standing behind Xiao Chenjing, so his direction was naturally where Xiao Chenjing was.

Xiao Chenjing who was asked for help: Forget it, Lady Ruan is still young, it won’t be too late to teach her slowly in the future.

At this time, he had long forgotten that he was interested in Ruan Miaomiao because of her "untainted by the mud".

All I can say is that his bottom line has been worn down by Ruan Miaomiao.

He himself was unaware of this reaction, but it was obvious to those who knew him.

This includes Tang Rouer.

Tang Rouer's personality seems as gentle as her name, but people who are familiar with her know that she is actually gentle but strong.

She also heard the thorn in Ruan Miaomiao's words just now.

So she didn't want to pay attention to her.

She would stop Jasmine from saying bad things about Concubine Ruan because she disdained to do anything behind her back.

This has nothing to do with her being afraid of Ruan Miaomiao or not daring to confront her.

Now that Ruan Miaomiao took the initiative to provoke her, she was not a pushover and let her be bullied without saying a word.

“I would like to thank Lady Ruan for her kindness, but I have been accompanying my elders to the palace since I was a child and have seen many palace performances.

It is Lady Ruan who needs to know about this birthday."

She paused deliberately, looking around in appreciation, "Everyone only has this opportunity once a year, so you must not leave yourself with any regrets on that day.

You said, yeah?

Ruan Miaomiao called her sister, but Tang Rouer refused to even call her sister.

A faint smell of gunpowder rose on the stage.

People who are nearby can hear it clearly, but they hate themselves for having such good hearing.

I have no choice but to be deaf and dumb at this time.

"you!"

Although Ruan Miaomiao was not as smart as others, she could understand that she was talking about herself.

She was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. If Chunlan had not pulled her back in time, she would have stood up and challenged him in public.

Ruan Miaomiao didn't know that "the one who teases first is the cheap one". In her opinion, there was nothing wrong with what she said just now.

Tang Rouer actually started cursing her!

"Your Majesty~"

She was full of grievances and shouted softly at Xiao Chenjing.

That voice, a thousand twists and turns.

Xiao Chenjing sighed softly.

He looked at Tang Rouer, not knowing who he was talking to.

"Noble Ruan is young, and she doesn't have any sisters in the palace that she's familiar with, so don't think too much about it."

After saying that, he turned to Ruan Miaomiao.

At this time, Ruan Miaomiao had not yet had time to hide the gloating expression on her face, and was once again "caught" by Xiao Chenjing.

"..."

"Today is your birthday, you are the oldest, and as the protagonist, you should not be too modest! Well, tell me what you want to see."

His tone was not good, but he lowered the volume deliberately.

It was just to prevent others from hearing and looking down on Ruan Miaomiao.

But in Ruan Miaomiao's ears, it was Xiao Chenjing who was cruel to her for Tang Rouer!

She pursed her lips and tears welled up in her eyes.

"OK OK."

Xiao Chenjing was so confused by her that he didn't know what to do. Didn't she hear that he was speaking for her?

No matter what, Tang Rouer was a noble concubine and still had a title, but as a noble who had just entered the palace, she had no power behind her.

Once today's events get out, even with his protection, some small actions in the dark will be impossible to resist.

This is the difference between the two people whether they have a family background or not.
