During the banquet, the ladies drank and chatted happily. Yu Zihe and others really treated Su Bei as a good friend. They chatted and laughed with her one by one and did not treat her as a maid at all.
But the more this happened, the more suspicious Su Bei became, and he always felt that this was a Hongmen Banquet with ill intentions.
Xue Jinrong, who was sitting opposite her, stood up and said with a faint smile: "I'll go change my clothes."
Then she walked around behind Su Bei, patted her shoulder, and straightened her collar.
Su Bei felt something stuck in her collar. She took it calmly and found it was a note. She unfolded it quietly under the table and found two words written in rouge: "Be careful!"
It seems that Xue Jinrong knows something.
Su Bei stood up and wanted to find Xue Jinrong to ask for clarification, but he heard Yu Zihe said with a smile: "Just when we were talking about who would perform first, Ah Bei stood up. It's just right, you go first."
Someone nearby echoed: "Princess Su is multi-talented. I think Ah Bei, who grew up with her, must be quite talented!"
"We are all sisters today, there are no outsiders, let's sing and dance and have fun!"
Mo Qingying also said: "Abei, don't reject everyone's kindness. No one treats you as an outsider, so you should be the first one to come."
Su Bei: ...
I can fight, can I show you a fight? But the original owner did learn music, singing and dancing. After all, she was trained as a dowry maid since she was a child. No matter who she married into, she had to help Mo Qingying win over the male owner. She couldn't let her be useless and serve others with her beauty.
Forget it, just dance! Su Bei cleared his throat and said, "Since the ladies want to see it, then I will show you how ugly I am."
The girls were so excited that Yu Zihe sent a maid to get the zither from the carriage and said, "Since Miss Abei is willing to dance, I will play the zither to entertain you sisters!"
Soon, the maid brought the guqin and found a table to set it up. Yu Zihe sat behind the table and smiled at Su Bei, "What song do you want, Miss Abei?"
"Let's play "High Mountains and Flowing Water"!" Su Bei searched for a fast-paced song from the original owner's memory. Anyway, with the original owner's basic skills, if he turned around, kicked his legs, and did a split, it should be enough.
This is not a beauty pageant, just fool around.
Yu Zihe agreed and raised her hand to play the piano.
Su Bei swung his arms to the tune, then kicked his legs.
Someone sneered: "Miss Abei, please don't fool us, or you will embarrass the princess!"
Some people were disdainful, "She is far inferior to Princess Su!"
Someone mocked: "Miss Abei, this is called dancing? Maybe you have a cramp in your hand?"
Su Bei caught a glimpse of Mo Qingying looking at him with dark eyes, but when he turned his head, she regained her gentle expression and nodded at him encouragingly.
Well, even though it’s not a competition, we still have to be careful.
Su Bei seriously performed a 180-degree high kick. Since the original owner had a flexible body, she had used this move in fights, so she was very adept at it this time.
But the lady wouldn't do this kind of action, and her difficult action was immediately despised by everyone.
Then someone said bluntly: "You are making such an indecent gesture and you still say you are not using your beauty to please others?"
"Of course not. Do you really expect a maid to be able to play the piano, chess, calligraphy, or painting? They are just toys for people to enjoy in bed!"
Su Bei secretly curled her lips. That's it? She went through so much trouble just to be humiliated?
But Mo Qingying said unhappily: "I said I would treat Ah Bei as my own sister. I will not be happy if anyone talks nonsense!"
Su Bei pursed her lips and turned around in circles. It seems that there is something else going on? I wonder what it is. Can she hit someone? It turns out that fighting zombies every day is too hard. It’s too idle here. My hands are itching! I don’t know if it’s because she turned the circle well, or if everyone restrained themselves after hearing what Mo Qingying said. The sound of ridicule disappeared, and was replaced by everyone’s praise.
Just suddenly...
The strings in Yu Zihe's hand broke.
The music stopped suddenly and Su Bei also stopped.
Yu Zihe apologized, "I'm so sorry, I ruined everyone's fun. Let me change the strings before we continue."
Su Bei was indifferent and didn't want to dance with them at all.
Then he heard the door open, and Xue Jinrong came in. He glanced at Su Bei, then said with a smile, "What are you playing? I heard your laughter outside."
Mo Qingying smiled and said, "Jinrong, come quickly. Ah Bei is dancing for everyone. We will all perform later, and you are no exception!"
Xue Jinrong agreed with a smile and was about to return to his seat when the door opened again.
Several men came in. The leader looked like a pale-faced scholar, but his face was red and he reeked of alcohol. Behind him were several men who looked fierce.
Mo Qingying was immediately displeased, frowned and scolded: "We have booked this private room, you guys have come to the wrong place!"
The pale-faced scholar glanced around the room, and then his eyes fell on Xue Jinrong who was the closest. He chuckled, with a bit of lewd light in his eyes, and said drunkenly: "Brother is in a good mood today, brother will pay for the silver for you, you can play with brother!"
As he spoke, he extended his hand towards Xue Jinrong.
Yu Zihe quickly rebuked: "Don't do this!"
As she spoke, she winked at the pale-faced scholar and pointed at Su Bei.
But the pale-faced scholar was probably drunk, and he waved at his men, "This young master has taken a fancy to this girl today! Come! Take her home and let her feel my magical power! Hahaha!"
As he spoke, the person behind him moved.
Su Bei narrowed his eyes, looked at Xue Jinrong, and moved.
Are you kidding? Xue Jinrong was the only one who treated her well. How could he let her be wronged? She immediately stepped forward, raised her leg high, and smashed it towards the pale-faced scholar's face.
At the same time, Xue Jinrong also moved. The dagger that King Jin gave her as a token of love had not been used yet. This was the best time to deal with Lecher! The scholar was kicked in the head by Su Bei, and several of his men also rushed up. Those delicate young ladies consciously squeezed to the other side.
Su Bei noticed that their exclamations didn't seem very loud.
The scholar hurriedly dodged, but Su Bei kicked him in the chest. When she turned around, she saw Yu Zihe pointing at her. Seeing that she was looking over, Yu Zihe quickly withdrew her hand.
It turns out this is their purpose!
The original target was herself, but because Xue Jinrong happened to be standing at the door, the group of people mistook her for her!
No! Jinrong can't be hurt!
Su Bei didn't bother to settle the score with them. He just picked up a round stool and swung it at those people.
Mo Qingying obviously didn't expect that Su Bei could fight, and he was very good at it.
She miscalculated.
but……
Mo Qingying and Yu Zihe looked at each other, and both of them curled the corners of their lips.
Xue Jinrong was obviously not a pushover either. Every blow she made drew blood. She and Su Bei smiled at each other, and then they started fighting against several thugs.
At this moment, someone shouted, "Don't you have any laws in the Wu Kingdom? How dare you rob people in broad daylight? I will teach you a lesson!"
There was a thudding sound of footsteps on the ground, and then a group of people as big as a mountain appeared blocking the door.
