I just want to live a good life

Su Nuan was seduced by Mu Yunting's look and words and was confused. She was about to leave, but she didn't take any action.

Cheng Ansu saw this and said, "What surprise is Concubine Xia going to give Your Highness? I can't wait to see it."

This sentence brought Su Nuan back to reality. She secretly cursed herself for being so useless and unable to resist the slightest temptation.

Thinking again about that male fox Lou Guang, he instantly strengthened his resolve.

After Su Nuan left, Cheng Ansu said to Mu Yunting coquettishly, "Your Highness, what surprise do you think Concubine Xia will give us?"

Mu Yunting said calmly: "I can't guess, but this surprise probably has nothing to do with you."

Cheng Ansu smiled awkwardly and said, "Your Highness is right. This is a surprise from Concubine Xia for Your Highness. I happen to be able to appreciate it with Your Highness. I am honored."

Mu Yunting lowered his head to drink and no longer paid attention to Cheng Ansu. His attitude was completely different from before the meal.

Cheng Ansu stared at Mu Yunting blankly, unwilling to look away for even a moment.

At this moment, a melodious sound of piano was heard, and a man appeared in the small pond. He was dressed in white, sitting upright on a small boat, playing the piano attentively.

His complexion was as white as jade, and his facial features were exquisite. The most wonderful thing was his pair of slender eyebrows and eyes, which, coupled with his cool temperament, made him look charming but not coquettish. Compared with him, Cheng Ansu suddenly looked much more vulgar.

As soon as this man appeared, he attracted the attention of Mu Yunting and Cheng Ansu, and they both frowned at the same time.

Su Nuan was a little confused. It was understandable that Cheng Ansu frowned because he was turned into ashes in seconds, but why did Mu Yunting frown?

This zither player was from the Jiyin Music House. His name was Le Xinghe. She had spent a lot of effort to find him. He was as handsome as Lou Guang, and his zither skills were extremely high.

The most important thing is that she heard that Le Xinghe was also gay and admired His Royal Highness the Crown Prince very much.

In order to make his appearance stunning, Su Nuan put a lot of thought into it. Even though he was sitting in a small boat, the boat was blocked by lotus leaves, and from a distance it looked like he was sitting on lotus leaves.

As for Le Xinghe's clothes, Su Nuan personally participated in the design. In order to achieve a fairy-like effect, she used high-quality fabrics and spent a lot of her money.

No matter what, Mu Yunting should be staring at her as soon as she appears, and she should be acting like a pervert. Why would she be frowning?

Seeing that Mu Yunting's face was getting longer and longer and his expression was getting more and more gloomy, Su Nuan felt uneasy.

At this moment, Manager Ding came to Mu Yunting holding a guqin, whispered a few words in his ear, and then showed the guqin to Mu Yunting.

As soon as he saw the zither, Mu Yunting's face changed suddenly. He took the zither and stood up and left.

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and Le Xinghe turned to ask Su Nuan: "My Lady Concubine, do you want to continue playing?"

Su Nuan hurriedly said no, then quickly caught up with Manager Ding and asked, "Manager Ding, where did you get that zither?"

Steward Ding replied, "It was sent by Master Lou."

It’s Lou Guang again. Mu Yunting would be so anxious whenever something had anything to do with him.

Su Nuan felt as if someone had poured a basin of cold water over her head, and her expression instantly became dejected.

"My Lady, do you have any other instructions?"

"No more." Su Nuan murmured.

"Then I will withdraw first." After saying this, Manager Ding took a few steps back and turned to leave.

At this moment, Le Xinghe had also come ashore. He came to Su Nuan with his zither in his arms and said softly, "My Lady Concubine, His Highness doesn't seem to like my music, so I won't bother you any more."

"He doesn't like what I like. Can you play a song for me?" Su Nuan asked.

Le Xinghe nodded and followed Su Nuan into the pavilion.

Cheng Ansu was sitting there angrily. When he saw Su Nuan, he angrily said, "Concubine Xia, what do you mean by this? Why did you invite such a bitch to the banquet arranged for me and His Highness?"

"Why can you come but he can't?" Su Nuan said unhappily, "He is my guest, please be more respectful when you speak to me, Miss Cheng."

"You, you are cheating me out of my money."

"Don't say such harsh words. Who cheated you out of your money? I only said I would give you a chance to have dinner with His Highness. I didn't say I would only invite you today. Do you want to blame me if you can't seize the opportunity I gave you? Do you think I should force His Highness to like you?"

"you you……"

"What? You clearly know that the prince likes men, yet you still like him so much and you come to oppose me. Did I provoke you or offend you? If you have the guts, go and find trouble with Lou Guang!"

Although Cheng Ansu had already made it clear that she liked Mu Yunting, she was still ashamed and angry to be exposed like this. She said to Su Nuan viciously, "Xia Qingyan, just wait for me. I won't let you go."

"There are many people who won't let me go, so why should I be afraid of one more person like you?" Su Nuan said disdainfully, "Miss Cheng, you've finished your meal, so I won't send you off!"

Cheng Ansu flicked her sleeves and left angrily.

Le Xinghe placed the piano in his hand on the table and bowed deeply to Su Nuan.

Su Nuan asked in surprise: "What are you doing?"

"The Concubine does not despise me because of my lowly status and is willing to treat me as a guest. I am very grateful."

"Why do you say that about yourself? You make a living by your skills, how can you be so lowly? If even you think you are lowly, how can others look up to you?"

Le Xinghe's eyes turned red, and he bowed to Su Nuan again, saying, "I am grateful for your advice."

Su Nuan picked up the skewers on her plate, took two big bites, and then handed two skewers to Le Xinghe. "Are you afraid of spicy food? The meat will taste much worse when it's cold."

Le Xinghe waved his hands, "I'm afraid of spicy food, Concubine, you eat, I'll play a song for you."

After saying that, he sat down and started playing.

Su Nuan didn't say much, just grabbed the skewers and started eating them in big mouthfuls.

As she ate, she muttered to herself, "Why does he always pick on me, whether he likes me or not? I am just a concubine, right? What threat do I pose to you?"

"You want me to die and have a miserable life, right? I won't do what you want. I just want to live a fulfilling life and make you die of anger."

Having said that, Su Nuan picked up the wine jug and took a big gulp, but because she drank too quickly, she choked. After spitting out most of the wine, she began to cough violently.

According to Su Nuan's plan, Mu Yunting should have fallen in love with Le Xinghe at this moment, and she should have retired and returned to Duiyueju to enjoy delicious food, so she left several maids in Duiyueju, and now she didn't even have anyone to help her.

The piano music stopped, Le Xinghe hesitated for a moment, then walked forward and patted Su Nuan's back gently.

"What are you doing?"

A woman's scream was heard.

Su Nuan looked up and saw that it was Cheng Ansu.

"What are you doing here, a man and a woman?" Cheng Ansu shouted, "Oh my God, the prince's concubine is hugging a man here, how shameless!"

"Someone come quickly, look at what Concubine Xia is doing?"

As she shouted, many maids and servants gathered around her.
