She also saw the ministers standing beside her, all of them looking appreciative.
She didn't look at Nangong Jing, even though she felt the burning gaze staring at her.
In fact, she had never learned this dance before. She just felt that the music and the dance had an inexplicable familiarity to her. She even learned the dance steps after listening for a while. Her movements became easier and easier, and soon the music stopped.
The moment the music stopped, everyone was stunned.
She stood on the stage with a few others, and heard crisp applause coming from her ears.
"Okay... Really good."
The emperor was clapping with a bright expression on his face. When the ministers saw the emperor clapping, they also started clapping along.
Gran was surprised. She had never thought that her conversation with Nangong Jing was actually heard by Xu quietly, and he had not yet noticed Xu's existence.

She walked along the path and unknowingly came to the lake.
"I am your concubine."
"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
"Hey, isn't this Gran? Why did you come out? Could it be that he was kicked out by the prince?"
Nangong Jing took off his clothes and put them on her shoulders, then said to her, "Gran put on Nangong Jing's clothes, buttoned up Nangong Jing's clothes, and left the palace."
He was careless.
Xu spoke to Gran, but she turned a deaf ear to him.
"Don't think you can stir up any trouble just because you entered Prince Duan's mansion. You have been married for so long, and you are still a virgin, right?"
Now is not a good time for her to attack Nangong Jing. Instead of wasting her time here, she might as well go out and breathe some fresh night air.
"Oh, only once, huh? I guess it's because we've been married for so long and you're still a virgin, so I had to touch you, right?"
"I'm going to go out for a walk. You sit here."
Gran curled his lips and smiled, it seemed that Xu had been seduced by him.
She deliberately provoked Xu, and the woman's beautiful face had turned red with anger.
The dinner time did not pass quickly. Gran felt very bored. She was tired of listening to the babbling opera and just wanted to go out for a walk.
"What are you doing here?"
A sharp female voice sounded behind Gran. She turned around and saw Xu, wearing a coat, standing behind her and speaking in a sarcastic tone.
"What nonsense! The prince loves me! You'd better not try to sow discord between us here."
The woman's mocking expression suddenly froze, and when she realized that Galanz was making fun of her cooking skills, she became even more angry.
She knew that after she said these words to Xu tonight, Xu would definitely try harder to show herself in front of Nangong Jing in order to get promoted. In this way, she would focus more on Nangong Jing instead of being hostile to her everywhere.
"You really have self-awareness. I really envy you for being so thoughtful."
She ignored Nangong Jing and just explained hastily, taking another bite of the rice in front of him. Nangong Jing did not stop her or drive her away. The emperor sat on top and watched the two of them being intimate, without saying much.
"You don't have to think of me as a thorn in your side. After all, the reason I slept with the prince was because I was a virgin. You've seen it every day, but the prince doesn't have me in his heart."
She asked Xu in return, and the woman who had just mocked her was suddenly stunned.
When Xu saw that Gran ignored her, she became even angrier. She made milk cakes for the empress, but Gran stole the limelight just because he sprinkled some coconut flakes on it. He also saved the dancers in the palace and made the emperor so happy. She was very jealous, so when she saw Gran coming out, she secretly followed him.
"So what if you're a virgin? As far as I know, you, Xu, have been in Prince Duan's mansion for much longer than I have. The prince hasn't touched you many times, right?"
Gran also thanked Nangong Jing like he did, and walked back to his seat, but he did not walk towards his own seat, but walked to Nangong Jing's side.
However, although it is too early to tell the secret, she will have to tell it sooner or later.
"I understand. Go ahead. The temperature is low at night, so be careful not to catch a cold."
Nangong Jing seemed not to have expected Gran to sit next to him. He just moved his body and asked her again.
Xu said arrogantly.
She also did not forget to mock Gran, and her tone was particularly sarcastic.
"What did you say!"
The smile on Xu's face seemed a little mean under the moonlight. Gran didn't want to pay attention to her, nor did he want to argue with her. He just stood quietly by the fence.
Nangong Jing stood up and spoke to the emperor again.
"I am really not disappointed. I didn't expect that the wife of one of my subjects would be so capable."
Xu couldn't help herself and told the secret she heard.
She changed her tone and put herself on an equal footing with her. She made Xu feel that her identity was not very important in Nangong Jing's eyes, and Xu didn't have to target her everywhere.
She walked out of the door, perhaps because the temperature outside was somewhat different from that inside the room, she couldn't help but shiver. There were only a few stars in the sky, flickering with faint light. There were cheers in the palace, but it was very quiet outside the palace. She really enjoyed this quiet time.
He praised Gran and glanced at Nangong Jing who was sitting next to him.
She paused.
Gran said to her as if he had heard a joke.
"but……"
Xu mistakenly thought that she was driven out by Nangong Jing, and a bright smile appeared on her face.
"You were just kicked out, so why are you still here? Don't be so depressed that you want to commit suicide by jumping into the lake."
"Dropping yourself into the lake? That's not my style. If you have time to care about me, you should focus on your cooking skills."
She didn't care at all that Xu would capture Nangong Jing's heart, because she knew that Nangong Jing would never like Xu, and even if Xu racked her brains, she would never take the position of princess.
If a person does not even have basic self-awareness, then he is not worthy of being your opponent. At most, you will just find him a little ridiculous.
"It's cold at night, don't catch a cold. I don't have time to listen to your ridicule."
She was already shivering from the cold, and wrapped Nangong Jing's clothes even tighter.
Judging from the time, the dinner should be coming to an end and she should go back.
