Yelu Sage was stunned again when he heard this, then he grinned at Ren Yaoqi: "Mrs. Xiao is really eloquent." Concubine Yun looked at Yelu Sage, then at Ren Yaoqi, frowned, and at this moment she slowly realized that something was wrong, and no longer spoke easily.
Yelu Sager didn't say anything else. Her attention shifted to a calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall. She even stood up and walked over to stare at it carefully for a long time. Finally, she turned around and pointed at the calligraphy and painting with curiosity and asked Ren Yaoqi, "Did you write this?"
Ren Yaoqi looked up and nodded.
The calligraphy was written by her, and there was her signature on it. It was Xiao Jingxi who insisted on hanging it up. She thought that no outsiders would enter the room, so she let him go.
The admiration in Yelu Sager's eyes was genuine. "Although I don't understand these elegant things, I can tell that it's well written. Don't worry if you laugh at me. I've been practicing Chinese characters for a while, but my handwriting is really nothing to show for it. I really envy you talented women."
Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "Everyone has their strengths. Princess, why don't you underestimate yourself? I may not be good at what you are good at."
Yelu Sag thought about it and nodded: "That makes sense, but I still envy you. Sometimes I can't help but wonder, if I had the same elegant skills as you, would the prince look at me with admiration?" Having said that, Yelu Sag laughed to himself.
Since it concerned her father-in-law, Ren Yaoqi didn't know what to say and just smiled.
Concubine Yun glanced at Yelu Sager and snorted. Although she didn't say anything, her expression and movements clearly explained what she was thinking.
Yelu Sager didn't mind at all. Instead, he smiled brightly at Concubine Yun and Ren Yaoqi: "I know that the prince doesn't like me, although I feel a little regretful in my heart."
Ren Yaoqi lowered her head to drink tea, pretending not to hear anything. However, she was secretly paying attention to the movements outside. Unfortunately, Yelu Sager had been in for such a long time, but there was no movement outside. The silence was almost eerie.
Yelu Sager had been paying attention to Ren Yaoqi's expression. After looking at her for a while, he couldn't help but ask thoughtfully, "Is Madam Xiao waiting for someone or something?"
Ren Yaoqi looked at Yelu Sage calmly.
Yelu Sager's smile was somewhat smug and cunning. "If that's the case, then the result may disappoint you. As I speak to you, the outside of the Yanbei Palace has been surrounded. Not even a fly can fly in. Of course, they can't fly out either."
Concubine Yun suddenly sat up straight and looked at Yelu Sager coldly, but her body involuntarily moved towards Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi sat there without moving, as if what Yelu Sag had just said was just an insignificant joke.
Yelu Sager asked Ren Yaoqi curiously, "Why? Madam Xiao, aren't you afraid? I mean, you are now in my hands."
Ren Yaoqi looked at her, smiled calmly, and said, "So, what are you waiting for, Princess? Who or what are you waiting for?"
Upon hearing this, Yelusage couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
Ren Yaoqi noticed her expression and couldn't help but smile.
The reason she and Yelusage had been chatting for so long was because she was stalling for time. And Yelusage was stalling for time, too. It was just that they were waiting for different results.
