Chapter 26: Taking Advantage of the Situation



Bai Ruowei was also gritting her teeth in anger.

Bai Fengyao is still as despicable as before.

She waved to Changle, and Changle ran towards her with her skirt lifted.

Bai Fengyao recognized that it was Bai Ruowei, and the corners of her mouth curled up when she thought of the face under her veil.

Unless they can persuade Xiao Qi and Qu Li to perform a double act, otherwise, they will only bring shame upon themselves!

Thinking of the disdainful look Bai Ruowei always gave her, she pinched her fingers hard.

"Ruo Wei, what's wrong? Is it your face?" Changle's face was full of worry.

"No!" Bai Ruowei glanced at Qu Li, who looked calm, and whispered, "Qu Li helped me before. If it weren't for her, my face would definitely still be extremely itchy!"

"I know you're a grateful person, but, Ruowei, I just tried my best to wink at my seventh cousin, but she still dove in."

"Bai Fengyao has always been good at scheming!" Bai Ruowei looked at Bai Fengyao with anger in her eyes.

"What should I do now?"

"Even if we lose, we can't lose too badly!" Bai Ruowei whispered a few words in her ear.

"You mean a double act?"

Bai Ruowei nodded vigorously.

"That's a good idea. I'll go talk to my seventh cousin."

"good."

Qu Li was called aside by the maid beside Changle. After listening to their ideas, her heart felt like it was soaked in hot spring water.

"I will remember the kindness of Princess Changle and Miss Bai!"

"Time is running out, so don't talk about this nonsense!" Changle frowned, craning his neck to look at the people in the guest seats with different expressions, "Do you agree or not?"

"I said I'll accept the good intention!"

"Qu Li, how can you be so ungrateful?" Changle was furious at her lack of resistance. "Bai Fengyao is very treacherous, her heart is black!"

"Yeah, I know!"

"and you……"

Bai Ruowei gently tugged at her sleeve and shook her head at her, suggesting that she not to be anxious for the time being.

Qu Li felt that these two people were really to his liking.

A quiet and intelligent one.

An arrogant one, but a sincere one.

She smiled, "I know you two want to help me hide this from the world! But you also said that Bai Fengyao is cunning. She must be able to guess why you called me here at this time."

The fights among the women in the harem in ancient times were indeed fierce, and their methods were varied.

But, after all, there are only a few things.

If Bai Fengyao wanted her to be embarrassed, she would give her the chance.

Then he would slap her hard in the face so that even Xiao Xian couldn't plead for her. This scene would surely be very exciting!

Changle and Bai Ruowei exchanged glances, and they both stared at Qu Li with bright eyes, like diligent elementary school students.

"Understand?" Qu Li asked after expressing his idea.

The two nodded vigorously.

"Ruo Wei, this is the first time I'm so eager to see Bai Fengyao do something bad!"

Changle never hides his emotions. He grabbed Bai Ruowei's hand and even stomped his feet a few times because of excitement.

Qu Li returned to the guest seats. Bai Fengyao glanced at her indifferently, and a curve appeared at the corner of her mouth that was easy to miss if you didn't look carefully.

"Sister Princess, can we begin?"

The two daughters of the Right Prime Minister bowed, and when they left, they looked at Bai Fengyao with a rather unfriendly look.

No matter how much Bai Fengyao wants to compete for Qu Li's favor, she shouldn't deliberately use them as an excuse.

The double flying dance performed by the sisters just now won the competition and amazed everyone present, but because of Bai Fengyao's words, they were suspected of winning unfairly.

Bai Fengyao didn't care about the looks of the two men at all, and there was still a perfect smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Can."

When Qu Li responded, he glanced vaguely at the place not far away.

Bai Fengyao saw a hint of green skirt behind the pillar and sneered in her heart.

In a moment she will make Qu Li throw his face to the ground!

"Birthday Song" was written by a master of the music troupe of the previous dynasty. The music is divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower. Today, Bai Fengyao and Qu Li are going to perform the middle part, which is also the most lively part of the entire birthday song.

She sat upright in front of the piano, her face as rosy as a peach, her eyes full of affection, and a pair of slender white hands fell on the strings, and light and cheerful music flowed out.

Everyone was brought to the lively birthday banquet by the ethereal music of the piano, as if they saw the beautiful scene of everyone drinking happily and listening to the sound of stringed instruments.

Qu Li didn't move and no one noticed anything.

Xiao Xian's attention was always on Qu Li, with dark emotions surging in his inky eyes.

She has always been able to surprise people, can she do it this time?

Xiao Qi half-closed his eyes and moved his fingers on the table following the music.

Xiao Rui glanced at Qu Li with a half-smile, wondering how she could remain so calm even though she clearly couldn't keep up.

Bai Fengyao sneered in her heart.

Just a straw bag!

She just didn't believe that even with Bai Ruowei's help, she could still play the piano along with her.

There was no joy on the eldest princess's face, and her eyes were fixed on Bai Fengyao with a serious look.

Just as she was wondering whether to smash the wine glass to interrupt Bai Fengyao, Qu Li put the jade flute to her lips.

The sound of the flute is melodious and ethereal, like a naughty child chasing after Bai Fengyao's ethereal piano music.

Bai Fengyao was horrified.

After not seeing her for a few days, Bai Ruowei's flute skills have become so superb!

She was unwilling to give up and could not help but speed up the playing of the piano.

The eldest princess's expression eased slightly, and the corners of her mouth turned up.

Changle, who had been pretending to be well-behaved beside her, supported her chin with one hand and looked at Bai Fengyao with some anticipation.

Bai Fengyao sped up her strumming of the strings, but the sound of the flute still followed her like a shadow. Fine beads of sweat broke out on her forehead, and her expression became more and more solemn.

With a "clang" sound, the string broke.

Bai Fengyao's breathing became tight, fear appeared in her eyes, and she immediately knelt on the ground.

"Princess, please forgive me!"

The eldest princess's face was as cold as ice, and the disgust in her eyes was not concealed at all.

"As expected, you are not worthy of being on the stage! I thought you could make me listen to the heavenly music of the world, but I didn't expect you to be like this!"

In a big job, a broken string is a bad omen!

Xiao Xian quickly pleaded, "Aunt, Yao'er didn't do it on purpose!"

The eldest princess' eyes were gloomy.

Changle curled her lips and said, "Seventh cousin, what you said is so interesting! If she hadn't wanted to show off her skills and played the music faster and faster, how could the string have broken?"

Bai Fengyao trembled, "Grand Princess, Princess Changle, I was just surprised by the sound of the flute!"

A flash of panic flashed across Changle's eyes. She moved her lips and said, "What's wrong with Seventh Cousin's flute playing? Isn't it quite pleasant?"

"Yes, I didn't expect that Princess Chen's flute sound would be so ethereal!"

"The qin music is indeed beautiful, but the flute music is also quite good, like the sound of a ringing pendant!"

Someone agreed.

Bai Fengyao looked up and met the Grand Princess's stern gaze, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Grand Princess, is that really the sound of the flute played by my sister, the Princess?"
