Yun Xuanting curled his lips and picked up the wine glass in front of him. His every move revealed an air of dignity. Facing Xue Zixiao's pressure, he was completely unaffected.
He drank the wine in the cup in one gulp before answering, "General Xue, they are all my men, how could they listen to you!"
"Does it mean that if I go to the General's Mansion, will the people in your mansion obey me?"
"General Xue hasn't even drunk any wine yet, how come he's already drunk? This prince has just competed with you, why don't you leave the opportunity to others... No one likes to watch your performance!"
As he spoke, Yun Xuanting looked at Mu Shasha: "This prince still hopes that Aunt Mu will cooperate with the second young lady of the Yang family!"
"It would be good for everyone to see who is more talented, the concubine that General Xue likes or Miss Yang II..."
Yun Xuanting went around in circles and brought the topic back!
Mu Shasha's expression was stiff. Yun Xuanting was indeed protecting Yang Xinwan everywhere.
Even though Xue Zixiao came from a poor family, he was a general favored by the emperor!
Yun Xuanting had just returned to Beijing and his foundation was not stable at all. He should not offend anyone, but instead win over others everywhere.
But instead, he kept offending Xue Zixiao!
Yun Zhiyuan just thought it was very interesting. He was very willing to watch this kind of play, so he did not say anything to persuade them.
The atmosphere was tense and no one broke the awkwardness.
Finally, Yang Qingyuan stood up tremblingly: "Since General Xue and Aunt Mu are deeply in love and only want to work together, then I can't snatch Aunt Mu away and make General Xue jealous... I am willing to play a song by myself!"
As she spoke, she walked out leisurely, and then bowed in the direction of Yun Xuanting and Yun Zhiyuan: "Please allow me to bring a zither!"
Originally everyone present was waiting to watch the fun, and no one expected that in the end it would be Yang Qingyuan who would step forward and resolve the deadlock.
Yun Xuanting's eyes were cold and he did not agree to Yang Qingyuan's request.
Giving Yang Qingyuan a chance to perform is not something he would do.
Yang Qingyuan stood in the center of the table, attracting everyone's attention, and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
But as a concubine's daughter, if she didn't want to marry the husband arranged by Yang Xinwan, she had to bite the bullet and stand firm.
She has to pretend to be calm enough and behave properly! Make people look at you with new eyes!
Time passed slowly, but Yun Xuanting still didn't speak, as if he didn't hear what Yang Qingyuan had just said.
"Please allow me to bring a zither..." Yang Qingyuan spoke again, his voice a little heavier.
Yun Xuanting seemed to have just woken up from a dream, and he looked at Yun Zhiyuan.
"Prince, this woman is asking for something. Please give me some advice!"
Yun Xuanting's words surprised everyone present. He asked Yun Zhiyuan to say something?
Didn’t Yun Xuanting directly reject Xue Zixiao just now?
Why is he pretending to be confused now and letting Yun Zhiyuan give the orders?
Yun Zhiyuan was taking a sip of wine at this moment. Because of Yun Xuanting's words, even though he was usually calm, he couldn't help but cough.
Yun Xuanting, ah Yun Xuanting, the mouth behind the mask really said everything...
Yun Zhiyuan said helplessly: "Someone, bring Miss Yang Er a zither."
Although Yang Qingyuan pretended to be calm at this moment, her hands hidden in her sleeves were shaking uncontrollably, and there were finger marks on the back of her hands from her own pinching.
And the back and forehead were also covered with fine sweat...
"Thank you, Crown Prince, Fourth Prince." Yang Qingyuan could only pretend that she was not displeased at all and bowed respectfully.
Soon, the piano that Yang Qingyuan wanted was brought. She glanced in the direction of Yang Xinwan with a look that seemed to be provocative and even proud.
Yang Xinwan, however, looked calm, as if she didn't think that Yang Qingyuan's possession of the zither and the limelight would affect her in any way.
Mu Shasha reached out and tugged at Xue Zixiao, motioning him to sit down quickly.
Xue Zixiao’s dissatisfaction was too obvious!
Xue Zixiao finally sat down, but his face still showed dissatisfaction...
Soon, long piano sounds began to sound, and Yang Qingyuan felt that at this moment, she should put into practice all she had learned throughout her life.
Only in this way can she get a chance to turn things around, and only then will people look at her with new eyes...
Everyone present also shifted their attention to the sound of Yang Qingyuan's piano, and began to listen carefully one by one.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, a piercing noise was heard, which instantly sobered up the person who was gradually becoming intoxicated.
A good piano, but the strings broke...
Because of this sudden situation, Yang Qingyuan's fingers were cut and bleeding. She didn't bother to check her fingers, but looked at the strings with her eyes wide open.
How could this happen? How could this happen?
This was totally different from what she had imagined!
Today she mustered up the courage to stand out, her purpose was to stand out, to let all the young men know of her existence and favor her.
But at this moment, everything is ruined.
“This… this is a zither…” Yang Qingyuan wanted to say that it was a problem with the zither, but Yun Xuanting frowned and said, “This zither belongs to me, the prince. I had to go through a lot of trouble to ask Prince Chi for it!”
"This prince has promised to take good care of it, but I didn't expect such a precious thing to break in your hands?"
As he spoke, he threw the wine glass towards Yang Qingyuan and smashed it hard: "You have to pay!"
Yun Xuanting's wine glass hit Yang Qingyuan's forehead hard, and the forehead, which was originally covered with a little sweat, immediately turned bright red.
Yang Qingyuan's face turned pale in pain, and then he knelt down on the ground in embarrassment.
Many people at the scene were frightened by Yun Xuanting's action.
No one expected that Yun Xuanting would be so unsympathetic and unkind...
"Fourth Prince, I really didn't use any force. It's the piano's problem. I have no intention of destroying it!" Yang Qingyuan explained anxiously.
Yun Xuanting disdainfully questioned: "It was a good zither, but it broke after you plucked it a few times. If it wasn't you who ruined it, then who else could it be?"
Mu Shasha and Xue Zixiao looked at each other. Yun Xuanting was obviously targeting them!
The two had originally suspected Yun Xuanting's true identity, and now they were even more certain that Yun Xuanting was Yang Xinwan's bodyguard!
He was venting his anger on behalf of Yang Xinwan!
Yang Qingyuan knew Yun Xuanting's identity but still insisted on showing off. It's all her own fault!
Yang Xinwan, who had been watching the show, was very surprised. She didn't expect Yun Xuanting to not care whether she was a woman or not when he started fighting...
She shook her head helplessly and poured herself another glass of wine. Before she drank it, a surprised voice sounded not far away.
"Eh? Brother Yang, isn't that your second sister? Why is she kneeling on the ground?"
Yang Shaojun shook his dizzy head, trying to see the scene clearly. When he confirmed that the kneeling woman was Yang Qingyuan, he immediately smiled and said, "She is my second sister, but she is also your future daughter-in-law..."
