Chapter 237 The Princess of the Subjugated Country 6
Qingyu was quite surprised that Qin Su dared to contradict her. Her eyes, hidden behind the veil, met the stubborn gaze of the man before her.
Those were extremely beautiful eyes, as if they held countless stars, deep and captivating.
Qin Su was stunned for a moment, and her previous momentum dissipated somewhat.
Qingyu noticed the change in his gaze, and a strange emotion welled up inside her. She snorted coldly and said, "Have you looked enough?"
Qin Su then came to her senses, her face slightly flushed, but she stubbornly said, "Princess, you've misunderstood. I was just thinking about how to persuade such a stubborn person as you."
Qingyu smiled disdainfully, her eyes filled with contempt. "You? But I will remember what happened today and settle the score with you another day."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Qin Su breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little disappointed. Watching the person's departing figure, she muttered to herself, "Why did he seem a bit like a bristling animal..."
However, he doesn't seem to be as arrogant as rumored.
Seeing that Qingyu seemed angry and ran to the other side, the princess glared at Qin Su unhappily and hurriedly went to chase after her.
Shao Mingyu sighed, her expression complicated. "Qin Su, you shouldn't have spoken up. The princess's temperament is unpredictable. Don't get close to her from now on."
And the man approached...
It makes me uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Qin Su's mind was still filled with those eyes. Hearing this, she finally came to her senses, her eyes glazed over, and she frowned, saying, "I know, but how did you offend the princess?"
Shao Mingyu was slightly taken aback, not expecting Qin Su to ask this first. A strange feeling welled up in her heart, but she still replied, "Perhaps it's because of what happened at the last banquet?"
Qin Su suddenly realized that the pigeon that was supposed to be Qingyu's at the banquet had flown to Shaomingyu's place instead. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, it was still an offense to the princess.
At the time, Qin Su didn't think anything was wrong, but now that she thinks about it, she inexplicably agrees. Shao Mingyu was indeed too eye-catching, which made Qingyu feel wronged.
He nodded slightly. "No wonder the princess felt wronged."
“You…” Shao Mingyu was now really starting to feel something was wrong. How come Qin Su was already speaking up for Qingyu so soon?
She was somewhat disappointed, and her expression softened. Not wanting to say anything more to Qin Su, she turned and began talking to the other young ladies.
the other side.
Qingyu didn't go far. After seeing off the princess, she leisurely rested in a waterside pavilion.
Actually, this place can't compare to the palace, but after eating so many "delicacies," some "plain porridge and side dishes" are quite nice.
Moreover, now that she has a distinguished status, no one dares to disturb her.
I was resting when I suddenly heard footsteps coming from afar behind me.
Judging from the voices, there's more than one person?
Qingyu gazed intently and saw Rong Jinnian, Li Mo, and Qingchen walking towards them.
The three of them got together?
Strange!
Qingyu raised an eyebrow, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.
Rong Jinnian spoke first, "Your Highness seems quite relaxed here."
Qingyu hated him the most, and her eyes immediately turned cold. She snorted, "What's it to you? Are you here to cause trouble for this princess?"
Rong Jinnian's expression changed slightly, and he opened his mouth: "I didn't..."
But Qingyu stopped looking at him and instead looked at Li Mo beside her. "Young Master Li is very familiar with the prince?"
Li Mo noticed Qingyu's displeasure, which relieved him. He quickly smiled and said, "Princess, you misunderstand. I was just passing by and saw you here, so I came to greet you."
He's not on Rong Jinnian's side!
Hearing this, Qingyu was somewhat satisfied, her eyes twitching upwards with a haughty air. Glancing at her brother out of the corner of her eye, she noticed he remained silent, then straightened her posture slightly and looked at Qingchen, "Royal brother?"
From the very beginning, Qingchen had been quietly observing Qingyu from the side. He always felt that this younger sister had a special quality about her.
Even though they didn't have much contact usually, he felt an unusual urge to protect the other person and couldn't feel any aversion towards them.
He nodded with a smile and teased, "It is an honor for Your Majesty that Qingyu is here to support you today."
Qingyu smiled, feigning coquettishness, "I will definitely come more often in the future, as long as you don't find me annoying, Your Majesty."
"how come?"
The two were all smiles and chatting, looking like good siblings.
The others, seeing this, were all quite surprised. The princess was even more relieved. After thinking about it, she decided not to invite Shao Mingyu over again, since Qingyu clearly didn't get along with her.
Halfway through the banquet, someone suddenly suggested a talent competition.
Everyone responded enthusiastically, and the atmosphere immediately became lively.
Qingyu watched everyone with great interest, thinking that this was quite an interesting part.
She caught a glimpse of Shao Mingyu below and suddenly had an idea.
I thought it would be some young lady who would perform first, but to my surprise, Rong Jinnian was the first to step forward. "I have been in Chen Kingdom for a few days and I am very fond of the local customs and culture. Today, I will use a zither piece to express my joy!"
While he was confident in his superb musical skills and wanted to take this opportunity to show off in front of Qingyu, he kept glancing at Qingyu, as if the "liking" he mentioned was not for local customs and culture, but for the latter.
Qingyu didn't even glance at him, leisurely rubbing her nails, her eyes lowered, looking as if it were none of her business.
Rong Jinnian's eyes darkened as he calmed himself down. The next second, melodious music began to play, its gentle notes like a breeze rippling across a lake, soothing the soul.
This drew much praise.
After a quarter of an hour, the ladies who thought they would get to go on stage were once again beaten to it by Li Mo, and everyone had different thoughts.
Li Mo then displayed an exquisite calligraphy style, with vigorous and powerful strokes that were truly impressive.
Qingyu became quite interested in this and generously praised it, saying, "Not bad."
Two words were enough to make Rong Jinnian's heart sink, and she couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy and bitterness. Her gaze toward Li Mo became increasingly dangerous.
The latter was overjoyed, and after bowing and thanking them with great poise, he sat down with a radiant smile.
Just then, as everyone else was eager to try, Qingyu suddenly looked at Shao Mingyu in the corner, her eyes flashing, and said with a smile, "I have long heard that Miss Shao is exceptionally talented. I wonder if this princess would have the honor of witnessing it?"
This……
All eyes turned to Shao Mingyu, and those who were smart enough understood that Shao Mingyu was being targeted.
Some people thought it was a good idea, after all, Shao Mingyu is both beautiful and talented, and if she went on stage to show her talents, she would definitely become the focus.
Shao Mingyu's already pale face grew even paler. She wanted to refuse, but when she met those bright, lively eyes...
Even knowing that the other party might be targeting her, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.
It was as if they had been bewitched.
After a moment's thought, Shao Mingyu stood up, walked to the center of the field, and bowed, saying, "Well... I'll make a fool of myself."
As she finished speaking, she gracefully swayed her body, her clothes fluttering with her movements, like a fairy descending to earth.
Everyone was captivated by what they were seeing, but Qingyu chuckled softly, her voice as clear and melodious as a bell, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
After a long pause, Qingyu lazily spoke: "It's nothing special."
