The Empress Dowager frowned slightly, and before she had time to speak, the emperor on the side interrupted her in a deep voice, “No.”
Consort Lian froze, her face a little stiff, “Your Majesty ……”
Emperor Beiyu’s face was pale, his thin lips lightly lifted, “Consort Xian has been unwell recently, it’s better not to jump.”
The faces of the crowd were a little dull.
If Consort Xian was a superb dancer, the emperor would not refuse, right?
After all, now this was a good opportunity to salvage his honour ah!
So there were only two reasons for the emperor to refuse either he was as sceptical as they were about Consort Xian’s dancing skills and didn’t want to make her lose face again, or he had recently looked at her very unfavourably!
However, although Concubine Lian guessed these two possibilities and was somewhat happy, she wanted much more than that!
So she turned her gaze to Su Miao, “Your Highness, what do you think?”
Su Miao looked at her with a dazed, even dull gaze, “This palace feels …… that His Majesty has a point.”
Concubine Lian’s face stiffened again.
This, what situation?
At a time like this, shouldn’t this woman already be controlled by Golden Lotus, why would she still veto her?
Look at this woman’s eyes, clearly is in a trance right ah ……
But did not wait for her to come up with a reason, Su Miao added, “However, although this palace feels the emperor’s understanding, but this kind of time, this palace is naturally obliged to stand out. So even if Concubine Lian doesn’t mention it, this Palace is still going to grossly recommend herself.”
Consort Lian’s eyes lit up, finally relieved.
Fortunately, this woman was still under control!
The crowd heard her say this, but they froze even more.
It was hard to believe that Consort Xian had really learnt the dance at some point when they didn’t know about it!
Compared to the crowd’s puzzled and probing gazes, Di Bei Yu’s eyes were heavy.
What the hell is this damned woman trying to be so strong about?
Other people don’t know about her, but he still doesn’t know that she doesn’t know how to dance at all!
Two days ago, she hit a bruise and swollen body full of wounds look, she has forgotten?
Does she want to do it again in front of so many people?
But before he could say anything
The Western ambassador suddenly spoke, ”Your Majesty, we all believe that Lady Concubine Lian was just careless for a moment and was unharmed. Since Lady Xianfei is so powerful, and the dance she practices is actually known to be second to none in the world, I wonder if we could have the honour of seeing it?”
As soon as his words fell, the other country’s envoys also chimed in.
“Yes, we have heard of the great name of Empress Xianfei before we came, and today we have seen it, it is true that beauty is like jade ……”
“If we could see the Empress’ dance, it would be extremely wonderful ……”
“………”
As soon as these ambassadors opened their mouths, Xiliang this was like being stopped at the bar, unable to refuse at all.
The faces of the people of Western Liang were worried, and Di Bei Yu’s face was even more gloomy.
The bottom of Concubine Lian’s eyes, however, flashed with a faintly imperceptible smile.
Very well, that’s it!
Using ambassadors to force their way, the emperor simply could not refuse!
Di Bei Yu pursed his lips and spoke, “Concubine Xian.”
Su Miao knew what he was thinking, but …… don’t think that just his Concubine Lian can dance, humph!
She got up and made a bow, raising the corners of her mouth with a slight smile, “Your Majesty, then my concubine will go down first to change her dancing clothes.”
Di Bei Yu met her provocative gaze and almost didn’t laugh in anger.
This woman, can’t it be that in three days time her dancing skills have gone from unimpressive to extraordinary?
Heh.
But without giving him a chance to speak, Su Miao had already gotten up and left the stage.
