"Your Highness is right. This is the first time I've met Princess Manqiao. How could she have deliberately targeted me for no apparent reason? I'm narrow-minded and have wronged Princess Manqiao."
Anyway, she had already said it. People had their own judgment in their hearts about what was right and what was wrong, and it was not something that could be changed by Concubine Ling's words.
However, since the imperial concubine has said this, it would be unfair to herself if she doesn't take advantage of the situation.
Just when the expressions of the Imperial Concubine and Qianye Manqiao had eased a little, Murong Xiao attacked again:
"Princess Manqiao, after hearing what the Imperial Noble Consort said, I feel deeply sorry for misunderstanding you. It turns out that Princess Manqiao was also planning to perform for everyone, and she just twisted her ankle.
I've heard Princess Manqiao is a master of the zither, so how about asking her to perform a piece to liven up the atmosphere for everyone?
"Great! I've heard of Princess Manqiao's fame even from my time in the North. If I could see her perform in person, I'd be able to feast my eyes on her!"
Just as Qianye Manqiao's face had turned from livid to ferocious, Baili Feng's words suddenly, very timely, and very... flatteringly interrupted her. Furthermore, his tone and roar were like he was listening to a storytelling in a teahouse and roaring when he heard something good.
If Murong Xiao's words had already brought endless insults to Qianye Manqiao, then Baili Feng's words were the culprit that had directly sent her to hell.
Murong smiled imperceptibly at Baili Feng, who was smiling as if bathed in spring breeze and her body was shaking with joy. She became even more puzzled: Why did this Prince Yong, whom she had never met, always show kindness to her for no reason?
His eyes were clear, and the way he looked at her was completely devoid of any romantic feelings. She was sure that Baili Feng had no such intentions towards her.
In her previous life, she had no contact with him at all. In this life, this person suddenly appeared and treated her well for no reason. What did it mean?
"Manqiao, since Prince Yong has spoken, you should perform a song for everyone." Emperor Dezheng ordered.
Murong Xiao had already tricked him just now, saying that he was a wise and benevolent monarch. If he continued to protect Qian Ye Manqiao at this moment, he would be treating his daughter differently from his ministers.
Although they should be treated differently, and this was indeed the case, it still sounded unpleasant. If he showed partiality to his own daughter at this moment, it would chill the hearts of all the ministers' wives and daughters present.
His daughter was a princess, and when he asked her to perform, she insisted on bringing out all these things. Even if his daughter performed today, she wouldn't be able to get away with it in front of these guests, let alone not performing. She would be blasted to ashes!
It has to be said that Murong Qingyu is an old fox, and the daughter of this old fox is even more of a mutant fox. Her intelligence and ruthlessness are definitely superior to her father.
"Father..." Qianye Manqiao's eyes were already filled with tears. She felt wronged! She hated it!
As soon as Murong Xiao arrived, she took away her title of the most beautiful woman in South Vietnam. After that, all the princes and nobles from various countries who should have been courting her did so instead.
She finally found an outlet to vent her anger and wanted to humiliate her in public, but she didn't expect so many people to help her.
