Quick Transmigration: The Villainous Female Supporting Character Became the Male Lead's Beloved

Faced with this situation, Zhong Linjian remained calm and composed. He took a step forward and was about to raise his hand when a discordant voice came from behind him.

"What is the general doing?" Bai Zhiwei walked over with a smile, accompanied by several servants, slowly waving a folding fan.

The shaking made Zhong Linjian feel annoyed.

"His Majesty ordered me to check for dangerous weapons." He lifted his eyelids slightly, speaking somewhat casually, "Are you trying to obstruct official business?"

Bai Zhiwei quickly waved his hand, looking very innocent: "I wouldn't dare. I just think what this young lady said makes sense. No matter what, a maid should be sent to check. Cuiyu, come here."

At a command, a petite and plain-looking maidservant appeared at the end of the servants' ranks. She was about fifteen or sixteen years old and looked timid.

"Go forward and examine General Zhong thoroughly. If you dare to conceal anything, you will not be able to bear the consequences." He raised his eyebrows and raised his voice slightly.

Ni Qing glanced at the two people on the other side. Very well, they were both her targets for seduction. But she couldn't rush things now. A few days ago, she had only intended to test whether the male lead had any issues.

The result was still the same: the other party was completely at ease with her flirtatious remarks, and could even turn the tables on her, which was not quite in line with the cold-blooded and ruthless character in the original text.

Zhong Linjian lowered his eyelashes, making it impossible to discern his emotions, but he still did not stop her.

Cuiyu stepped forward and checked everyone thoroughly before slowly saying, "Reporting to my lord, General, this servant has not found anything harmful."

Bai Zhiwei was deep in thought, seemingly lost in thought.

It seems that the old emperor was not completely bewitched; at least he still cared a great deal about his own head.

"Since nothing has been found, let them go." Zhong Linjian said in a deep voice, then turned and left, with the rest of his entourage following closely behind. Soon, only Bai Zhiwei's side and Ni Qing's side remained.

"I've long heard that women from the Western Regions are beautiful, and seeing them today, I can confirm they are truly extraordinary," Bai Zhiwei suddenly exclaimed.

Ni Qing lowered his eyes and said cautiously, "Thank you for your kind words, sir. If there is nothing else, we shall continue on our way to avoid being late."

Prime Minister Bai nodded, then watched the figures of the group disappear into the distance.

When Ni Qing arrived, the Fifth Princess also arrived.

The girl was not wearing a veil, and her exotic attire made her particularly eye-catching. Zhu Yunxi was clearly stunned for a moment, then quickly concealed her emotions.

He glanced silently at his "father".

The old emperor was over fifty years old, with some gray hair, and unsurprisingly, he stared intently at the dancers who had come from afar.

The book Zhu Yunxi transmigrated into was called "Qin Yue Dynasty," a male-centric novel with no female protagonist. It tells the story of the power struggle between the male protagonist Zhong Linjian and the second male lead Bai Zhiwei.

The old emperor is not described much from beginning to end; he is essentially cannon fodder. He is infatuated with women from the Western Regions from the very beginning, and spends every night with them in revelry. In the end, he is assassinated by the leader of the women.

Now that she has transmigrated into the body of the Fifth Princess, she naturally cannot stand by and watch her nominal father be assassinated. If the dynasty changes, her position will be in jeopardy.

While everyone's eyes remained fixed on the dancers, Ni Qing remained calm and composed, possessing a dignified and mysterious appearance.

The old emperor grinned from ear to ear, patting the chair beneath him: "Good! Good! Good! It seems His Majesty of the foreign kingdom is quite sincere. Since you are dancers, then perform one of your best dances! Let everyone enjoy it."

Ni Qing smiled and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhong Linjian and Bai Zhiwei were already seated, but the general seemed uninterested, while the prime minister was completely absorbed.

Zhu Yunxi has her own storyline, but Ni Qing also has hers, even more precisely than the female lead's. Right now, it's a crucial plot point, and also the moment for the female lead to show off.

The original owner took the lead in the dance, shining brightly and drawing admiration from all the adults at the banquet. Just then, the female lead would suddenly stop her dance and perform a rather playful folk dance.

It was a revelation, instantly overshadowing the Western Regions dance and stealing the spotlight, making the emperor find the foreign lands rather boring.

Ni Qing's expression brightened, and she took the lead in dancing. Her arms were fair and slender, and her waist curves were graceful and smooth. To the accompaniment of ancient music, she and the other four danced a mysterious Western Region dance.

Even their facial expressions during the performance were perfectly executed. Although the other four dancers weren't the most quick-witted, they didn't falter at crucial moments and were extremely skilled.

Zhong Linjian never looked up from beginning to end, silently drinking his wine as if he wasn't interested.

Bai Zhiwei couldn't help but scoff inwardly. What a hypocrite! But outwardly he remained nonchalant: "General, are you in a bad mood? Such a brilliant performance is a first for you. Are you afraid of being bewitched?"

The man pursed his lips, finally raising his eyes to look at the person dancing in the center: "Never, not everyone is attracted to beauty." He spoke seriously, but his gaze never left the person at the head.

Bai Zhiwei lowered his eyelids, a sense of understanding flashing through his mind. He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, revealing a slightly gloomy smile. "I've found your weakness."

The dancers sang and danced, their skin porcelain white with a hint of pink, their jade feet touching the ground, light and airy as if they were about to ascend to heaven.

The atmosphere was about to reach its climax.

Zhu Yunxi bit her lip in a dilemma, looking for an opportunity to interrupt the dance. She inadvertently met Ni Qing's eyes, and for some reason, she felt that her thoughts were completely transparent to the girl.

She lowered her head again, trying to hide the somewhat hesitant look in her eyes.

The maidservant beside her was getting anxious that her mistress wasn't following the plan, and couldn't help but whisper in her ear, "Your Highness, aren't you going to dance? I think your dance is definitely more beautiful than those ordinary women."

Zhu Yunxi was completely overwhelmed by the flattery, her confidence soaring: "You're right." She was a modern person, after all; no matter how perfectly the other person danced, it couldn't compare to something new and exciting.

"Wait a moment!"

With a soft cry, the servant playing the music stopped abruptly. Ni Qing curled her lips and slowly halted her dance.

The old emperor was engrossed in watching when he was suddenly interrupted, his voice tinged with displeasure: "What kind of behavior is this, shouting and yelling in public?! You have no manners whatsoever that a princess should have."

Zhu Yunxi was somewhat timid, but still mustered his courage and said, "Father, do you really think this dance is interesting? In my opinion, it is nothing special."

Zhong Linjian frowned.

The old emperor's face darkened: "What do you all think?"

The ministers below looked at each other; one was a woman from the Western Regions, and the other was the fifth princess of their own country. It was easy to imagine which side they would take.

They gritted their teeth, somewhat hesitantly: "It doesn't seem that impressive..."
