Liang Yuyu's head kept moving upwards and her little feet kept kicking downwards.
[Mei Niang, please let me see clearly whether the lead dancer is Wu Niangzi.]
She was so strong that she kicked over the wine glass in front of Shen Yuexi.
Bang--
The wine glass fell off the small table and rolled uncontrollably to the center of the banquet.
The dancer who was entering the stage on tiptoe accidentally stepped on a wine glass.
The dancer twisted her ankle and fell to the ground.
The veil on her face was suddenly lifted, revealing her beautiful face.
When the ministers saw this face, their drunkenness instantly dissipated.
Suddenly, there was a lot of discussion in the hall.
"Isn't this Miss Wu?"
"Why did she enter the palace?"
"The Emperor is hosting a banquet today, and the dancers in the palace are all specially selected. How can a prostitute serve at a royal banquet?"
Over there, Liang Yuyu finally broke free from Shen Yuexi's restraints, stuck her head out, and looked forward with wide eyes, curiously.
The dancer lying on the ground had a small face and a pair of exotic black eyes.
Her every move, every frown and smile is filled with unique charm.
Isn’t it the Wu Niangzi who had bewitched Liang Ruitian some time ago?
[Huh, huh? You were crying and yelling at the Liang Mansion earlier, insisting on getting your hands on my scumbag dad, and now you've sneaked into the palace in the blink of an eye?]
[Mrs. Wu really has some skills. She's planning to hook up with someone older and rise to prominence.]
If you think about it carefully, there is already Wu Niangzi's biological sister, Chen Guiren, in the palace, so it is not difficult for Minister Cen to arrange for another Wu Niangzi to enter the palace.
Besides, isn't that what all men like?
With two identical beauties in front of them, they would probably wake up laughing in the middle of the night just thinking about it, right?
Thinking of this, Liang Yuyu turned her head and looked at the emperor sitting on the throne.
really!
The emperor's eyes were fixed on Lady Wu's face and couldn't be taken away.
The Queen coughed softly beside him to remind him. The Emperor then realized his mistake and quickly looked away. His old face flushed and he said awkwardly, "I've never seen this dancer before. I wonder when she was selected to be a dancer in the palace?"
Before Lady Wu could even speak, an upright official sneered, "Your Majesty, this dancer was probably not selected into the palace, but someone deliberately sent her to this palace."
The emperor raised an eyebrow: "Oh?"
In the past, many ministers used various methods to select beauties for the emperor, which was really nothing new.
The emperor didn't notice anything wrong and looked around: "I wonder which lord it is?"
The official sneered at Liang Ruitian and said, "Speaking of which, this dancer has an indissoluble bond with Sir Liang. Could it be your doing?"
Liang Ruitian looked at Wu Niangzi eagerly, and after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out why Wu Niangzi appeared here.
Now being questioned in public again, he was stunned for a moment. He stood up and bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I do know this dancer."
The emperor beamed, "So, this lady was arranged by Lord Liang?"
Seeing that the emperor was pleased, Liang Ruitian wanted to climb up the ladder.
【Scumbag dad, please don’t talk nonsense! 】
[Mrs. Wu was born in a brothel. If you send someone like her to the emperor, even if you can win his favor, the civil and military officials in the court can drown you with a single spit.]
Liang Ruitian broke out in a cold sweat instantly.
If he hadn't heard Guaibao's inner voice reminding him, he would have almost made a big mistake.
"Your Majesty." Liang Ruitian immediately changed his tone, "Although I know this dancer, I really don't know why she entered the palace."
"Oh?" The emperor's back relaxed, and a hint of displeasure appeared in his eyes. "So it wasn't you, my dear minister, who did it."
Sensing the emperor's dissatisfaction, Liang Ruitian became uneasy. He cautiously turned his head and glanced at Liang Yuyu.
【What are you looking at me for? 】
[At this time, you, my scumbag father, must stand firm and not flatter the emperor out of fear.]
This is a matter of principle and cannot be wrong.
[Solidify your position and decide not to allow a prostitute to enter the palace.]
Liang Ruitian was covered in cold sweat, his whole body was stiff, his tongue was trembling, and he could clearly hear that his voice was dry and unpleasant.
Despite this, he still steeled himself and looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, it was indeed not me who arranged for this lady to enter the palace. And in my opinion, whoever arranged for this lady to enter the palace should be severely punished!"
[Huh~]
Liang Yuyu let out a long sigh, rubbed her head back and forth with her little hands, and wiped away the cold sweat from her forehead.
[It seems that the scumbag father is quite smart. ]
The emperor's expression suddenly darkened, his mouth drooping, his brows knitted together in a frown. He reluctantly said, "Since this person wasn't arranged by you, my dear ministers, then forget it. After all, it was all out of kindness. But what you're saying is completely illogical. How can I be severely punished for arranging a beautiful woman to dance in the palace? Wouldn't that make me a tyrant?"
Hearing the emperor's displeasure, the ministers stood up and apologized.
Liang Ruitian was feeling uneasy, but thinking of Guaibao's feelings, he still resisted the pressure: "Your Majesty, you don't know. This Lady Wu is a famous courtesan in the capital's brothels. Your Majesty, think carefully, by arranging a courtesan to enter the palace, what exactly does this person want to do?"
Hearing this, the emperor's lips trembled slightly, and his cold expression gradually softened a little: "Oiran?"
The emperor looked Mrs. Wu around.
This woman is so charming and lovely that she is unforgettable.
But this identity is really not presentable.
No matter how much the emperor wants to keep Lady Wu, he has to consider his own status.
Liang Ruitian saw all the changes in the emperor's expression.
My originally anxious heart finally calmed down a little.
He addressed the Emperor with great respect, clasping his fists and bowing, "Your Majesty, it's a good thing Lady Wu revealed her true appearance before she could even perform her dance. If she had performed and been favored by His Majesty, whether she was rewarded with gold, silver, jade, or taken into the palace as a concubine, wouldn't that have been a disgrace to His Majesty's reputation?"
"This shows that the person who selected Lady Wu to perform in the palace is malicious and truly despicable. Shouldn't such a person be punished?"
Liang Ruitian spoke passionately, and all the ministers in the court gave him a thumbs up in their hearts.
I always thought that Liang Ruitian was just a flatterer who relied on flattery to win the emperor's favor, but I didn't expect him to be so clear-headed at the critical moment.
The ministers in the court knelt and shouted, "Your Majesty, what Lord Liang said is very true. Please reconsider."
Liang Ruitian's cold sweat finally broke out at this moment.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and then he realized that his legs were shaking and his upper body was trembling as well.
If there had been any mistake just now and the emperor had been angered, it would have been a disaster!
However, now that the court officials all agreed, the emperor had to give up no matter how much he liked Lady Wu.
Snap——
The emperor picked up the white jade teacup on the table, threw it to the ground, and angrily shouted: "Who arranged for this woman to enter the palace?"
