Crazy Queen, Striving to Become the Most Beautiful Lady in the Harem

The eunuchs carried out more than a dozen screens in an orderly manner. The screens had exquisite patterns.

Everyone looked over, their faces filled with curiosity.

Sun Manrou snorted disdainfully, thinking that Chen Xier just knew how to pretend.

In the high position, Xie Yu also had an interested expression, and Lin Junxue smiled faintly beside him.

Chen Xier said, "Your Majesty, please enjoy the screen dance that I specially prepared for today's Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner. Please enjoy it with your Majesty, Queen, and all the sisters."

The voice just fell

Everyone heard the pleasant sound of stringed instruments, and a group of dancers in dance costumes appeared behind the screen, their slender figures looming.

Through the screen, the graceful figure of the female dancer can be seen swaying in the wind as she dances slowly. Her white gauze is lifted up and spinning behind the screen, with her skirt fluttering in all directions. It is gorgeous and dazzling, extremely beautiful.

At this moment, the sound of flute suddenly joined in, and the female dancer used her left foot as the axis, and her delicate body rotated faster and faster. Because of the screen blocking the view, the grace of the dance was not lost, but it instead aroused endless reverie.

Now everyone understands what "Screen Dance" is and it is indeed exquisite and novel.

With a look of disdain, Sun Manrou looked at the dancer dancing behind the screen, then turned around and glanced at Xie Yu who was sitting on the podium admiring the dance.

She whispered to the concubine Yue beside her, "Look, our Imperial Concubine Xi is really full of tricks. I thought it was some new thing, but it's nothing but something not presentable."

The other concubines sitting next to Sun Manrou could only pretend not to hear and lowered their heads in embarrassment.

Yuepin has been close to Sun Manrou recently, and she smiled and whispered in agreement.

"Empress Chen, Imperial Concubine Xi has indeed put a lot of thought into this Mid-Autumn family banquet. This banquet is well organized, so of course the Emperor values ​​Imperial Concubine Xi more."

Sun Manrou snorted and turned to look at Chen Mi who was holding up the wine glass.

She said sarcastically, "Sister Mifei, what do you think of this screen dance?"

Chen Mi put down his wine glass, looked at Sun Manrou, and nodded faintly.

"Noble Concubine Xi put a lot of thought into this dance, so it's natural that it's good."

Sun Manrou saw Chen Mi's indifferent look and knowing her personality, she could only curl her lips.

Seeing this, Yuepin's eyes flashed, then she glanced at Lin Junxue who was sitting on the top and suddenly spoke

"I see this dance, and it's not only the Emperor who likes it, the Empress also seems to be appreciating it very much."

Yuepin's words successfully attracted the attention of the people around her to Lin Junxue.

Sun Manrou covered her handkerchief and continued to speak in a sarcastic tone.

"What Yuepin said is true. The Empress is very generous. What the Emperor likes and Imperial Concubine Xi has carefully prepared, the Empress will naturally like it very much."

Anyone could hear the sour words from Sun Manrou and no one dared to say a word.

Yuepin slowly lowered her head and smiled slightly, with an ambiguous look in her eyes.

Chen Xier looked at Xie Yu's appreciative and satisfied eyes, knowing that the screen dance she had arranged was correct, and a hint of pride was revealed on her face.

However, when she saw Lin Junxue beside Xie Yu, her eyes darkened again.

The sound of the flute became slower and slower, and finally, the string music stopped and the dance of the screen ended.

Xie Yu took the lead in applauding and even said "good" several times, which showed how satisfied he was with the dance.

When the concubines saw Xie Yu applauding, they could only applaud along and praise Chen Xier for her good arrangement of the dance.

With each word of praise, Chen Xier's pride reached its peak.

She bowed to Xie Yu in a humble manner.

"Your Majesty, today, this screen dance can make Your Majesty, the Queen, and all the sisters smile, so my hard work has not been in vain."

Xie Yu was very satisfied with Chen Xier, who hosted the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner. He had an idea and it was not impossible to let Xier assist in managing the six palaces.

Xie Yu said in a deep voice, "Empress Xi, this Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was well organized. The Queen and I are very satisfied. You deserve a reward."

After finishing speaking, Xie Yu turned his head and looked at Lin Junxue next to him.

Lin Junxue nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is right. Imperial Concubine Xi has been helping to manage the six palaces for some time, and the harem has praised her. Today's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was extremely wonderful. Your Majesty must reward Imperial Concubine Xi more. Imperial Concubine Xi has indeed worked hard these days."

After these words came out, the concubines below had different expressions.

No one had expected that the Queen would praise Concubine Xi so highly in front of the Emperor. It was really hard to guess what she was thinking.

Even Chen Xier was a little puzzled when she heard Lin Junxue's praise for her.

After Lin Junxue's house arrest was lifted, her personality changed drastically, and now she can't see through this person.

The satisfaction in Xie Yu's eyes deepened.

The Queen is so broad-minded and not jealous. Not only does she take the initiative to give up most of her power, but she also praises Xier generously.

Xie Yu said in a deep voice, "Okay, the Queen is right, Concubine Xi has indeed worked hard, I should reward her well."

The voice just fell

Chen Xier smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your praise, Your Majesty. I think these folk dancers have been rehearsing day and night and have worked hard. How about Your Majesty reward these dancers as well?"

Xie Yu nodded.

"Imperial Concubine Xi is considerate of the servants. She is thoughtful. Let these dancers come forward. I will reward them with 100 taels of silver."

Gao Cheng stepped forward and shouted, "Send the dancer forward!"

Then, the dancers who were kneeling in the distance, led by the eunuchs, walked forward in an orderly manner, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

After Xie Yu finished rewarding, the leading dancer was about to leave when suddenly, Sun Manrou stood up and shouted

"This...is this?"

Xie Yu and everyone else looked at Sun Manrou and frowned.

Chen Xier's face also looked a little ugly. Lin Junxue was the only one sitting there in the audience, and she didn't even look at Sun Manrou who was shocked and lost her composure.

After Sun Manrou looked at the dancers carefully again, she was very sure that the leading dancer was wearing that thing. She was overjoyed and immediately looked at Xie Yu.

Sun Manrou first bowed and apologized, then looked at Xie Yu with some embarrassment, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

Xie Yu's eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, and he said in a deep voice, "Concubine Chen, why do you look like this? What happened?"

Sun Manruo first gave Chen Xier a fake look.

Chen Xier didn't know what went wrong, but when she saw the gloating in Sun Manrou's eyes, her heart inexplicably tightened.

Everyone was confused and didn't know why Sun Manrou suddenly lost her composure like this?

Next second

Sun Manrou looked at Xie Yu and said, "Your Majesty, the necklace worn by the leading dancer just now looked familiar to me. I dare not confirm it, but this matter is of great importance and I cannot pretend that I did not see it. That is why I could not help but scream in public. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Xie Yu and everyone else looked at the collar around the leading dancer's neck.

After looking at it carefully, some people were confused, some were surprised, and even Chen Mi, who was usually the calmest, had a slightly changed expression.

Chen Xier's face turned pale instantly. She looked at the dancer in disbelief and stood up suddenly.

When Xie Yu saw the collar around the leading dancer's neck, he became furious.
