Although he and Lan Shuiyao had been at odds with each other for some time, he had seen through her thoughts and kept them in his heart. He had to admit that Lan Shuiyao was indeed a special person to him!

Is she really that short of money? Is she just so insensitive to the situation? Yue Nanchen clenched his fists fiercely and stared at Lan Shuiyao in silence.

Jiang Yan's expression calmed down a little after seeing Yue Nanchen's anger. Well, it was worth it to buy the embarrassment of King Yongnan with 100,000 taels! He sneered, looked at Lan Shuiyao with contempt, and prepared to return to his seat.

"Wait, Prime Minister!" Lan Shuiyao walked in front of him and stopped him.

Jiang Yan sneered, his eyes filled with disdain, "Why? You don't want the money now, do you? Don't worry, with the Emperor here, I can't deny your money!"

Lan Shuiyao smiled charmingly, and that sweet laughter made Yue Nanchen's anger on the verge of exploding. "Prime Minister, you are joking. Shuiyao will naturally not worry about the money. It's just that the dance Shuiyao is performing is a little special. Please cooperate with me, Prime Minister!"

Jiang Yan was stunned, and then said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can I, the prime minister of a country, play with you!"

"Prime Minister Jiang, what you said is wrong. You are the prime minister of a country, and your wife is the best concubine in the world. You can accompany her in the performance without losing your status. Besides, you came up with this idea, so if not you, who will accompany her?"

Lan Shuiyao was stunned. She didn't expect that even the emperor knew about the title of the best concubine in the world that she mentioned casually. However, it was different when the title came out of the emperor's mouth. She turned around slowly and said, "Thank you for the reward, emperor!"

Yue Nanxuan was startled. He didn't expect Lan Shuiyao to be so

Linglong waved her hands and said, "No thanks, no thanks. You must perform well!"

Lan Shuiyao smiled charmingly again, "Of course, Your Majesty, I still need someone to play music, something more exciting will do!"

Just as Yue Nanxuan was about to give an order, he saw the elegant and noble Prince A Luo slowly stand up again, "Your Majesty, if you don't mind, A Luo is willing to accompany this girl. My country of Mi Luo has a song called Tianque, which has an exciting and majestic style. I wonder if it is suitable?"

When Lan Shuiyao heard this, she was overjoyed and said, "Song of the Heavenly Palace? This name sounds good, let's choose it. Prince, just play it, and I will naturally follow your tune!"

A Luo nodded politely, turned around and walked to the musician, selected the big drum, picked up the double drumsticks, and played one drum after another, gradually turning from passionate to surging. People immediately became energetic just by hearing the drumbeats.

This performance, accompanied by the music played by Prince A Luo, immediately elevated Lan Shuiyao to a height that no one could reach. Putting aside how the performance was, the momentum alone overshadowed Princess Nanhan.

Looking at Prince A Luo again, his eyes were sharp and his arms were strong, a complete change from his gentle and elegant image just now. The music he played was majestic and surging, like thousands of horses galloping, or like soldiers and horses enjoying the rivers and lakes.

Lan Shuiyao looked down at her cheongsam. Amid the surging and exciting music, she looked like a goddess of the underworld scattering flowers, flying all over the sky, matching perfectly with the pleasant-sounding and heart-stirring drumbeats.

The drumbeats suddenly became rapid and more surging, shocking people like thunder, and the red shadow flying in the air was spinning faster and faster. Finally, after a short and high-pitched beat, the drumbeats stopped, the red shadow fell, and only the lingering sound remained.

.

Looking at the woman again, her clothes had completely changed. The flying flowers that had just danced in the air and fallen were actually the fabric on the woman's body, so everyone applauded.

Lan Shuiyao turned to look at Prince A Luo, and A Luo suddenly smiled gently at Shuiyao, showing that they were very sensitive to each other.

Jiang Yan, who was standing in the middle, was getting impatient. He was asked to cooperate, but he was made to stand there like a fool. Just as he was about to scold him, he suddenly felt a chill on his head. His hair fell slowly like black snow, leaving only a shining head...

The applause and cheers stopped instantly, and the entire hall was silent. Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with horror.

"Pa pa!" Two rounds of applause suddenly rang out.

Everyone looked up and saw that it was Yue Nanxuan, who clapped his hands enthusiastically and said loudly: "Well done, my sister-in-law's performance was really good. Prime Minister, your 100,000 taels of silver are worth it. It's the hottest summer now, and the weather is unbearable. It's just right to shave your head to cool down!"

After Yue Nanxuan spoke, everyone became lively again, but the smiles were only on the surface, and they secretly glanced at Prime Minister Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan had mixed feelings at this moment. He knew that the upload would be tonight, and he didn't expect that Lan Shuiyao actually had the support of the emperor. But he was even more afraid. With his martial arts skills, how could he not realize that his hair was cut?

I thought Lan Shuiyao was just a woman locked in a deep house, but I didn't expect that she actually possessed such powerful martial arts! If these pieces were cut on his neck...

He didn't dare to think about it anymore, and stood there blankly. It wasn't until Yue Nanxuan came out to negotiate that he managed to force a smile, and sat down with lingering fear.

I was put in my seat, and was left with only fear, and I didn't have time to vent my anger.

"Good, good, good performance, reward!" Yue Nanxuan shouted loudly, and a eunuch came over with a plate of gold ingots as a reward for Lan Shuiyao.

Shui Yao took it with a charming smile, turned around and walked back. When she looked up, she met Yue Nanchen's sinister and cold face. She smiled triumphantly and waved the gold ingot in her hand.

Yue Nanchen frowned coldly, but said nothing. He just drank the wine in front of him with a cold face.

Lan Shuiyao knew that Yue Nanchen must be thinking about something in his mind, and she carefully recalled the performance just now.

Although he felt a little annoyed that he lost his temper and showed off his martial arts to teach Jiang Yan a lesson, he did not regret it, so he sat down next to Yue Nanchen, picked some food and filled his stomach.

Yue Nanchen's eyes never left Prince A Luo from beginning to end, while A Luo's eyes were always fixed on Lan Shui Yao, with worry, appreciation, and relief in his eyes...

All kinds of expressions from beginning to end fell into his eyes. Others were watching the performance, but he was watching the mystery!

"Great, great, tonight is really great, let's be happy..." Yue Nanxuan was still making excited speeches over there, and everyone echoed him, and the banquet was gradually coming to an end.

After the banquet, Yue Nanchen stood up with a gloomy face, "You go back first, I have something important to discuss with the emperor!"

Lan Shuiyao smiled, "Aren't you afraid that I might do something if I wander around the palace alone? Or have you sent someone to follow me?"

Yue Nanchen was startled, and suddenly grabbed her arm with force, holding it high in front of him, "Woman, I

I have tolerated you for a long time, do you really think I can't kill you?"

Lan Shuiyao leaned on him and said, "Is it the right time? You suddenly dragged me into the palace to attend this banquet. It's not because you have no one to accompany you, right? I didn't give you face at the banquet just now, but you tolerated it. It means you have other intentions, Yue Nanchen, am I right?"

Yue Nanchen's dark eyes turned cold and cruel in an instant. He opened his thin lips and was about to say something when he heard the woman giggle, and she spun around and easily broke free from his grip.

Like a newly blossoming mandragora flower, it exudes a fatal attraction, "I advise you not to kill me. Don't you think it's fun to meet an opponent in your life?"

Before Yue Nanchen could say anything, Lan Shuiyao had already gone far away. She had wasted too much time tonight, and she didn't know whether Dong Qing'er's plan was successful or not, so she had to go back and check.

Yue Nanchen stared coldly at the woman's back, her fragrance still lingering in his palm, "You're right, meeting an opponent in life is indeed interesting, but also infuriating!"

The feeling of being seen through by others is really not a very comfortable one.

"Master, are you still following me?" Qianhun walked out from the shadows.

"Forget it, she's already alert. It's a waste of energy to follow her. You'd better keep an eye on Prince Changning. We can't let our guard down until he leaves!" Yue Nanchen waved his hand lazily.

Qianhun nodded, and his figure quickly disappeared into the dark night.

As soon as she walked out of the palace, Lan Shuiyao saw Prince A Luo's carriage moving slowly in front of her. She could easily recognize his carriage among so many other carriages.
