Chapter 461: Chapter 461: Stunning the Entire Venue (5)_1
If at this moment, the Empress really decrees to make Mu Caiwei the side consort of King Qin, Li Ruizhu would certainly be in a lot of pain and sorrow. The Li family would also certainly harbor dissatisfaction towards the Empress. This is exactly what she is hoping for, which is why she is relentlessly instigating and matchmaking.
Even if the Empress did not follow her advice, and didn’t give Mu Caiwei to King Qin, her words were enough to provoke them, make them uncomfortable, especially the little b*tch, Princess Helena, who despite being her own son’s aunt, always sided with the Empress and King Qin, never distinguishing her own loyalty.
Princess Helena was hit by Jin Guifei’s words. She stared with wide almond eyes, her eyes bursting with anger at Caiwei. The jealousy in her heart was overwhelming her, her eyeballs turning red, and she could not wait to pounce on this little b*tch and tear her to pieces.
Li Ruizhu’s status was higher than Princess Helena’s. She did not raise her head, fearing that her jealous face would be seen. What others saw, was only a pitiful girl, her head bowed in distress and hurt.
"Alright, there’s no need for you to worry about King Qin’s affairs,"
The Empress glanced sideways at Jin Guifei, seemingly as a warning, then she instructed the Chief Eunuch Li Zequan standing by her side, "Li Zequan, go tell the young ladies outside, whoever is willing to perform can register themselves."
"Yes!"
Li Zequan retreated. Caiwei quietly followed him and exited the scene as well.
This seemingly glitzy and glamorous Waterside Pavilion was actually filled with smoke from battles, where a slight misstep could result in devastating consequences.
Just now, while they were discussing make her a concubine to King Qin, she intelligently chose to feign shyness and didn’t express her views or stance and as a result, she could get away unscathed.
If she had objected at that time, it would definitely have caused a great uproar. The Empress would think that she was disrespectful, and Jin Guifei would become interested in her. At that time, who knows how the situation might evolve!
Returning to her own seat, Xiang Yun was so excited, she said, "Cai Wei, you are so awesome, even Princess Helena was defeated by you, you are truly remarkable!"
Du Wanqiu also pretended to be delighted and said, "Little Sister, you have brought so much honor to our family. When your grandparents hear about this, they will be very proud!"
Cai Wei indifferently said, "If they knew that I had fought with the Imperial Guards before, and had discord with Princess Zhao Yun, they might worry instead of be pleased."
"How could that be? Our grandparents are most indulging and tolerable..."
Du Wanqiu was silenced by her words and awkwardly tried to smooth things over.
Cai Wei didn’t want to interact with her, she just ignored her and started talking to Xiang Yun...
The next performer was Ning Huaixiu, the youngest daughter of Prime Minister Ning.
Miss Ning was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a neat and beautiful appearance. Every move she made was like that of a lady from a prestigious family. She wrote a word in Plum Blossom Seal Script.
The Plum Blossom Seal Script, from afar it looks like a flower, and up close it looks like a script. The flower has the character, the character hides the flower. The character and the flower complement each other, forming a unique blend of aesthetics.
Originally, there weren’t many people who understood the Seal Script. Furthermore, adding the plum blossom made it even harder to understand. However, Miss Ning wrote the script as if it was flowing water, achieving a perfect balance.
When the Plum Blossom Seal Script was passed around amongst the crowd, Cai Wei was fortunate enough to see it too. Instantly, she was filled with admiration for Miss Ning’s talent.
Compared with Miss Ning, the performances of poetry, piano playing, and painting by the following young girls seemed rather mediocre. Cai Wei found it quite boring after sitting for a while. Coupled with a bit of pain in her abdomen (maybe due to having overexerted her martial arts skills while dancing), she got up and quietly left the table, walking towards the depths of the Imperial Garden.
The scenery of the Imperial Garden was as beautiful as a painting, with artificial mountains, strange stones, rare flowers, and unusual plants. The ancient vines and twisted branches, each scene had an indescribable charm. Cai Wei was engrossed in it, feeling carefree and happy, thinking that being here was far better than watching those pretentious performances by the young ladies from prestigious families.As she was strolling, she suddenly saw a tall man coming straight towards her, surrounded by a group of people. The man was wearing a dark blue Liaodan robe and had a chilling smile on his face, staring directly at her.
Cai Wei was startled and turned to run back.
Before she could run a few steps, she was caught by an iron-clamp like hand grabbing her neck and pulling her back.
"Woman, are you trying to avoid me, huh?"
Saknu smiled sinisterly.
