Chapter 208: Chapter 208: How about I Also Offer a Dance

Feng Yexuan was indeed entertaining guests tonight.

All the princes had come.

The Loyal Brother, Prince He, led the group, saying that since the brothers had been conferred with the title of prince, they rarely had opportunities to meet.

Today, Feng Qihe made arrangements with Prince Yexuan of Yu, Prince Yunan of Nan, and Prince Xiaoyao, Wuya, to visit Yexuan Prince Residence as guests.

Normally, Feng Yexuan did not have any so-called singing girls or dancing girls to entertain his guests.

But hearing that the Prince was entertaining important guests tonight, Chu Huaiyu, despite being ill, feared being neglectful and came as well.

A performance of the Nishang Dance, although she danced with a frail and sickly body, was so pleasing to the eye when she performed.

Her fragile figure did not hinder her dance moves; instead, it mesmerized the spectators.

Even Qing Ming, who stood guard outside the door, was inadvertently captivated by the sight.

Originally in a good mood, his spirits plummeted the moment he saw the person approaching.

"What are you here for?" Qing Ming quickly stepped forward, blocking Chu Qianli in the yard, not allowing her to take a single step closer to the hall.

"What does it have to do with you?" Chu Qianli continued forward.

Qing Ming said angrily, "The Prince is entertaining distinguished guests. If you cause trouble, don’t blame me for being rude to you."

Chu Qianli didn’t speak and kept walking forward.

Qing Ming’s hand was raised, yet he was unsure whether to follow through with the strike.

But she kept on coming, and it seemed she was about to bump into him.

Immediately feeling disgusted, Qing Ming stepped back swiftly to avoid her.

This shameless woman, how dare she touch him with her body!

How can there be such a shameless woman in this world?

Chu Qianli didn’t care about him, knowing he wouldn’t dare to touch her, so she didn’t evade and walked straight past where he had retreated.

In the hall, Chu Huaiyu was dancing.

When Chu Qianli entered, Chu Huaiyu had just finished a dance and was slowly walking over to Feng Yexuan, pouring him a drink.

Compared to the few lone figures in the hall, Chu Huaiyu standing beside Feng Yexuan was becoming a unique attraction.

Everyone knew that Prince Yexuan did not like to be close to women, and visiting guests at his Prince Residence should not expect beautiful ladies’ company.

Today was an exception.

Chu Qianli had just come in when Feng Qihe spotted her.

Prince He set down his cup and said with a hearty laugh, "It seems today is not only Miss Huaiyu who wishes to perform a dance."

Chu Huaiyu bit her lower lip, her eyes downturned, focusing only on Feng Yexuan’s wine cup.

It was as if everything else had nothing to do with her.

So compliant and obedient, she required no concern from any man.

To marry and take home such a woman would be to have the most virtuous wife.

"What are you doing here?" Feng Yexuan’s indifferent gaze landed on Chu Qianli, a hint of displeasure flickering in his eyes.

His woman dared to come and perform a dance!

Chu Qianli glanced at the people present, did not even bother with a greeting, and walked straight up to Feng Yexuan.

"I would like to return to the Duke Residence for a while. Please grant me your permission, Prince."

Tonight, she was being unusually polite and had no intention of conflicting with Feng Yexuan.

But Feng Yexuan’s attitude remained cold and arrogant as ever.

"Didn’t you see that I am still preoccupied with important matters? Go back and rest."

"As long as you allow me to leave, I will depart immediately and will not disturb your enjoyment."

"Are you determined to oppose me?" Feng Yexuan did not want to argue with her in front of others.

Though it was a casual gathering between the princes tonight, in reality, after the last banquet, certain people had developed interests in the woman by his side.

They were all here to probe his thoughts, and now that Chu Qianli had willingly walked into their midst, Prince He and the others would not let the opportunity slip by easily.

As expected, Prince He was the first to challenge.

He spoke with a smile, "Fourth Prince, since this Miss Li wishes to perform a dance, why do you stop her?"

Yexuan, the prince, also laughed, "When Miss Huaiyu offered her dance, the prince had gladly agreed, so why has it become such an issue with Miss Qianli?"

"Could it be that, in Your Highness’s heart, this Miss Qianli is different from other women?"

"This prince merely finds her clumsy and awkward, which might spoil the refined mood of my royal brothers."

Feng Yexuan’s expression turned somewhat frosty, "A mere concubine. If my loyal brother desires her, I could give her to you."

"Then I respectfully decline..."

"However, she is the woman I intend to take. I may not have many virtues, but I have plenty of flaws, and I do not like it when others touch what I have used. I would rather destroy it."

Before the words were finished, Feng Yexuan interrupted, "So, if my loyal brother wants her, I’m afraid you could only have a corpse!"

Chu Qianli’s palm hidden in her sleeve slowly clenched.

She was just a toy!

A shadow passed over Prince Qihe’s eyes.

However, he quickly put on a smile.

"What are you saying, my fourth brother? Your woman is obviously untouchable by me," he said.

He picked up his cup, took a light sip, and then said with a smile, "I’m just curious why Miss Qianli seems so different in the eyes of my fourth brother."

"She’s just a woman for others to play with. What’s so different about that?"

Feng Yexuan gave Chu Qianli a sidelong glance and scoffed, "Get out!"

Leng Ji, standing by the entrance, sweated profusely.

Please leave quickly, Miss Qianli.

Everyone here tonight has ulterior motives.

The prince is driving her away to protect her.

However, the words of the prince seemed indeed a bit... hurtful.

Chu Qianli still clenched her palm tight but tried her best to stay calm.

She knew that the people who came here tonight were up to no good, but she had already developed the antidote and must return to the Duke Residence as quickly as possible.

"As long as the prince agrees to let me leave, I will leave immediately," she said firmly.

Feng Yexuan’s eyes darkened.

This stubborn woman, always so disobedient!

"You have no right to be presumptuous in the presence of this prince, Qing Ming!"

Qing Ming immediately entered and bowed, "I am here."

"Take her..."

"Prince, since Miss Huaiyu could dance, I would also like to offer a dance. May I?"

Chu Qianli truly couldn’t just leave like this. She had already angered this man tonight, and in the coming days, he would probably not allow her to leave.

But she had to get out through this door of the Prince Residence.

"If my dance satisfies the princes, could you allow me to visit my gravely ill grandfather at the Duke Residence?"

Feng Yexuan was so angry that his complexion turned cold.

But in this scene, he had no room for refusal.

If he were to reject now, his earlier phrase "a mere concubine" would become meaningless.

Prince Qihe and Prince Xianyu were keen observers, and how could they fail to notice?

Perhaps, he had already revealed a slip-up!

He was rather impatient and said with displeasure, "If you wish to dance, dance your fill. But if you spoil the fun of my royal brothers, this prince will not let you off easily!"

Several princes looked at Chu Qianli with great interest.

Chu Qianli nodded, "Fine... but I need a moment to prepare."

"If you’re not prepared, then get back to your place," he said.

Chu Qianli smiled, "No matter, I can prepare right here."

With that, she walked over to Leng Ji and borrowed his sword.

With a hiss, she sliced the hem of her upper garment...
