Su Xi-er could see the longing in Ning Lianchen’s eyes, and her heart was involuntarily moved . Without waiting for Pei Qianhao’s permission, she stood up . “This servant knows how to dance, but I’m afraid that my meagre display will be mocked by everyone . ”
Chu Linglong was the first to reply . “This Crown Prince won’t laugh at you . Those at Prince Hao’s side are all capable people . Although you are a maidservant, this Crown Prince feels that you are definitely special . ”
When Ning Lianchen heard Su Xi-er agreeing, delight appeared in his eyes as he immediately instructed Eunuch Fu . “Take Miss Xi-er away to prepare . ”
Seeing that Su Xi-er was about to perform a dance, Pei Qianhao immediately spoke out . “You’re not allowed to go . ” His voice was frosty, and there was a trace of threat in his gaze .
Su Xi-er looked at him, her eyebrows slightly scrunched up . She didn’t want Lianchen to be upset, yet Pei Qianhao was unwilling . Just as she was about to resign herself to fate, she came up with an idea . This is the only way .

Hence, she walked closer to Pei Qianhao and lowered her voice . “Prince Hao, this servant wishes to dance . Tonight… this servant will sleep with you, but it will just be sleeping . ”
Pei Qianhao felt his eyelid twitching when he heard what she said . She actually suggested this . He couldn’t help but look towards Ning Lianchen . The little Emperor’s charm is really great . However, no matter how great it is, he can’t take advantage of Su Xi-er . She will be coming to my bed tonight .
With such a temptation, Pei Qianhao nodded . “No next time . ”
Su Xi-er softly replied, “Many thanks, Prince Hao . ” She then followed Eunuch Fu off the viewing platform to prepare for the dance .

Many people found it strange . Pei Qianhao was clearly against Su Xi-er dancing, but why is suddenly fine with it? Even Ning Lianchen found it puzzling, but when he thought about watching Su Xi-er dance, he strongly felt his Imperial Elder Sister’s shadow again . It feels like Imperial Elder Sister hasn’t passed away, and as if the one dancing is her .
Ning Lianchen was immediately comforted by this, while Yun Ruofeng was feeling apprehensive . What if Su Xi-er deliberately presents the Jinghong Dance . . .
Pei Qianhao raised his winecup, wanting to take a sip, but found that his cup was already empty . The wine pot on his table had been given to Chu Linglong by Su Xi-er .
He frowned slightly and put down his winecup . I can’t even drink wine when I want to . How did I end up being controlled by Su Xi-er? But remembering that she would be getting onto his bed tonight, his brows began to relax .
Noticing something different about Pei Qianhao, Chu Linglong intentionally raised the wine pot that originally belonged to the former and filled his own cup . “It’s so delicious . This Crown Prince feels that the taste of wine is much better than tea, especially when it was sent over by a beauty . ”

The ‘beauty’ he mentioned was none other than Su Xi-er .
Pei Qianhao’s voice was deep and oppressive, but the words he spoke sounded like he was just joking around . “In the Crown Prince Palace in Dongling, the number of handsome men pouring wine for Crown Prince Chu must outnumber the beauties . ” It wasn’t a question, but a statement .
Chu Linglong’s expression immediately turned ghastly . “This Crown Prince likes women, but it just happens that all my subordinates are handsome men . ” He chuckled, his alluring disposition returning to him . “Birds of the same feather flock together . Prince Hao, are you saying that you envy this Crown Prince’s beautiful appearance?”
“Crown Prince Chu, have you ever seen a man constantly talking about their beautiful appearance?” Pei Qianhao chuckled before looking towards the floating platform, no longer paying any attention to Chu Linglong .
Speechless, Chu Linglong clenched his fists very tightly . He’s secretly mocking me for not being like a man! Of course I’m a man! My side princess consort just got pregnant not long ago .
Suddenly, the sound of silk bamboo instruments could be heard, seizing everyone’s attention, including Pei Qianhao’s .
Donned in a red dress with a jade green dangling ornament, Su Xi-er’s countenance was already enough to mesmerise people before she even started dancing .
When Ning Lianchen saw an Osmanthus Flower branch in her hand, his expression changed . Bending Branch Dance! That is…
