Chu Zai looked at Consort Mu and chuckled as he stroked his beard. “Consort Mu’s suggestion is really good.”

Consort Mu lowered her head shyly and said, “That’s all because Your Majesty has taught me well…”

‘This b*tch is already so old, but she’s still flirting with the Emperor in front of the ministers. How shameless!’ Empress Qin thought to herself. She was gnashing her teeth so hard that they were about to break. However, she still had to maintain her dignity as the Empress of Xichu.

‘Yunxi?’

This word echoed loudly in Feng Yili and Luo Xiuran’s minds.

Feng Yili’s fingers tightened their grip around the teacup immediately as emotions surged in his dark eyes.

“Yili, did I hear wrongly? I seemed to hear…” Luo Xiuran said, looking uncertain.

Before Luo Xiuran finished speaking, Feng Yili said through gritted teeth, “It’s her. It must be her!”

Feng Yili raised his head and looked at Yu Yunxi’s veiled face with a profound gaze. It was only at this moment that he noticed her.

‘That pair of eyes, that cold temperament… It’s her. As expected, my Princess

Consort is alive…’

Feng Yili crushed the teacup in his hand, and the shards of glass cut his fingers. Blood dripped down, but a hint of a smile could be seen on his face.

Feng Yili stared at Yu Yunxi very openly, even if she wanted to ignore it, she could not ignore it.

‘What’s wrong with the King of Youshan? Why is he staring at me? Forget it. It’s more important to deal with the Emperor now.’

Yu Yunxi took a deep breath before she said to Chu Zai, “Your Majesty, my talent is mediocre. I can’t compare to the Sixth Princess. I don’t want to drag her down so it’s best if she performs alone.”

At this time, Chu Zhihe could no longer extricate herself from this situation. She was smart for once and understood the meaning behind her mother’s earlier words. As such, she raised her chin and said, “Cousin, you don’t have to worry. I’ll help you. Moreover, you’re the Eldest Princess of Xichu. How can you not know how to dance?”

“Zhihe is right. You’re Changning’s daughter. How can you not know how to dance? I think you’re just being modest,” Chu Zai said with a straight face.

Seeing that Yu Yunxi was about to refuse again, Chu Zai’s expression darkened, and he said in a slightly unkind tone, “Why are you hesitant? Do you think I’m not worthy of watching your performance?”

Yu Yunxi gritted her teeth, thinking to herself, “These people really can’t let me rest in peace at all…’

Finally, Yu Yunxi inhaled deeply and said expressionlessly, “Your Majesty, you’ve misunderstood. I’m willing to perform.”

Empress Qin smiled and said, “Changning’s dance skills back then surpassed those of all the women in the capital. Since you’re her daughter, I’m sure your skills aren’t bad. It seems like we’re all in for a treat tonight.’

Empress Qin was trying to flatter Yu Yunxi to death. If Yu Yunxi’s dance was not good later, others would only ridicule her more.

Meng Xia called out worriedly, “Eldest Princess…”

“It’s fine,” Yu Yunxi said, shaking her head before she got up from her seat.

At the same time, Luo Xiuran scratched his head and asked, “What should we do? These people seem to be deliberately making things difficult for Yunxi.”

Luo Xiuran wanted to ask Feng Yili what the latter planned to do. However, when he looked down, he finally noticed that Feng Yili had disappeared.

‘Where did Yili go?’

In the side hall.

Yu Yunxi had gone to the side hall to change into a simple dress since the dress she was wearing was not suitable for dancing.

At this time, Chu Zhihe said to the palace maid behind her, “Go to my palace and bring two sets of dancing clothes.”

“Yes, Sixth Princess.”

Then, Chu Zhihe turned to Yu Yunxi and said, feigning a helpless expression on her face, “Cousin, due to how sudden it is, it’s difficult to find you a new dancing dress although the palace is big. I’ll have to trouble you to wear mine…”

Yu Yunxi understood the meaning behind these words. Basically, it meant that there was no place for Yu Yunxi in the palace even though the palace was very big.

Yu Yunxi could not be bothered with Chu Zhihe. After all, Chu Zhihe was not worth her effort to deal with. She took a seat and yawned, looking bored.

Seeing how dismissive Yu Yunxi was, Chu Zhihe was naturally enraged. However, her mood quickly improved when she thought about how Yu Yunxi would be humiliated later.

“Summon the musician. I have something to tell him…’

Chu Zhihe wanted the musician to play the most difficult song. She wanted Yu Yunxi to be thoroughly humiliated.

Soon after Chu Zhihe left to meet the musician, the palace maids ran away one after another, leaving Yu Yunxi alone. They were unwilling to serve Yu Yunxi.

After all, they would likely offend Chu Zhihe if they had done so.

Yu Yunxi felt even more at ease now that she was alone. She rested the side of her face on her palm, feeling sleepy.

Suddenly, the sound of the door opening rang in the air.

Yu Yunxi assumed that it was one of the palace maids. She frowned and said unhappily, “I don’t need to be served. You can leave.”

Feng Yilu suppressed his excitement before he slowly said, “It’s me.”

“Huh?”

Yu Yunxi’s frown deepened. She looked up and saw Feng Yili standing not far away.

Feng Yili stared at Yu Yunxi silently. At the same time, his hands that were hidden under his sleeves trembled slightly. Yu Yunxi had already removed her veil at this time, revealing the face that had been haunting his mind day and night.

“The King of Youshan?” Yu Yunxi continued frowning.

Only then did Feng Yili realize he had yet to remove his mask.

Just as Feng Yili raised his hand to remove his mask and reveal his identity, Yu Yunxi said coldly, “King of Youshan, I don’t know why you came to the capital, but it’s best if you don’t provoke me. I’m not afraid of anything.”

As soon as Yu Yunxi’s voice fell, Meng Xia called out anxiously from outside, “Eldest Princess, are you inside?”

“Mm.”

Before the door opened, for the sake of Yu Yunxi’s reputation, Feng Yili quickly hid behind the screen.

‘Is the majestic King of Youshan afraid of seeing others?’ Yu Yunxi scoffed inwardly.

When Meng Xia saw Yu Yunxi staring at the screen, she asked worriedly,

“Eldest Princess, what’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing. Why did you suddenly come and look for me? Did something happen again?” Yu Yunxi asked solemnly.

Meng Xia quickly shook her head. “Nothing happened. I was just worried about you.”

Yu Yunxi said sarcastically, “They’re determined to watch me make a fool out of myself tonight. Since they want to see that, then let them see it…”

‘It’s still uncertain who’ll have the last laugh..

Meng Xia said seriously, “Eldest Princess, if you don’t want to dance, you don’t have to do so. You have the protection of the Emperor Emeritus after all. At the very least, the Third Prince of Beixiao is your fiance. He’ll be arriving in Xichu in a few days. If anything happens to you, those people won’t be able to answer to Beixiao.”

Yu Yunxi felt her head aching when she heard these words. After all, the King of Youshan was still in the room, and there were some things that were better left unsaid. She quickly coughed lightly and shook her head slightly at Meng Xia, wanting to stop Meng Xia from speaking again.

However, Meng Xia misunderstood and thought Yu Yunxi was not feeling well. She said, looking distressed, “Eldest Princess, does your head hurt again? The imperial doctors said it’d be difficult for you to regain your memories. You shouldn’t force yourself to recall your memories. With that, you won’t have a headache..”
