She glared fiercely at Su Su, scolding her for enduring so much trouble. Su Su also had a face full of awkwardness as she looked at the woman who just spoke with a gaze that was like a sharp blade, wishing that she could bore a few holes in her body.
"There's also Li Fei and the Consort De. I wonder which palace Miss Su Su thinks her master can compare to?" As the woman spoke, she glanced at Qiu Yi with disdain.
I don't know when I offended my sister to make her humiliate me like this. I just hope that I can serve the emperor properly in this palace, and he can play a song for the emperor when he wants to hear it. That's all, why is my sister being so aggressive? Qiu Yi immediately teared up with a pitiful and delicate look.
"Lady Autumn's words are like cutting me short, you don't have to sow discord between us. Honestly speaking, with your zither skills, in this music-shop, you are only at a normal level. However, we were not willing to tolerate it because we were afraid that you would live because we wanted to curry favor with you, but that did not mean that you would be able to stand up to us. We only pity a woman like Liu Li who was previously wandering around. The girl laughed mockingly.
Qiu Yi's face had already turned ashen, especially when the woman said that she shouldn't think that no one knew what she had done. Her body trembled. It seemed that Qiu Yi had also done a lot of thinking.
Qiu Yi and Su Su were already unable to say a single word, and then everything was silent. The atmosphere was a little awkward, and now everyone's gazes were shifted towards the three of us.
"How should I address the three of you?" The aggressive woman immediately turned around and spoke amiably with us. There was no trace of disrespect, but she wasn't trying to curry favor with us either.
I silently exclaimed in my heart for this girl. She really is an astute woman. She controls her emotions so well. She isn't a simple person.
"We are." I was about to explain why I was there when I heard a sharp sound coming from the distance.
"The Emperor has arrived."
Everyone hurriedly retreated to the two sides of the road before respectfully kneeling down. That Qiuyi originally only whimpered in a low voice.
He didn't expect the emperor to cry even more ferociously after coming here. It was as if he'd suffered some sort of great injustice.
The woman who was reprimanding her just now looked at her in disdain, "Lady Autumn, it's a pity that you don't want to be a playboy. Such ability is truly a waste of talent in our music-shop."
The crowd burst into laughter. Most of them felt disdain towards her. After all, everyone was well aware of her intentions. However, this kind of behavior was indeed a bit shameless.
I was amazed at Qiu Yi's thick-skinned face. Just now, she was mocked so miserably, and now she's become a demon again. But with my understanding of the emperor, he isn't someone who doesn't understand reason.
Due to everyone's discussion, Qiu Yi had already lowered her voice. However, she was still sobbing and her body was trembling. She looked really pitiful. She was intentionally kneeling in front of the crowd. It would be difficult for the Emperor not to notice her.
The emperor and his men had already walked in. I didn't want to kneel, but when Yan Yue tore me off, her eyes still hinted at me.
At first, we were in the front, but after all, this was a good opportunity to meet the heavens. It wasn't only Qiu Yi, but everyone else who didn't want the Emperor to see them, so we all squeezed forward and hid in the corner.
Surprisingly, there was another woman in the same corner as us. The one who didn't want to attract attention was the one who just scolded Qiuyi.
I saw that her face was calm, that she was not overjoyed by the arrival of the Emperor, that she did not rush forward like the others, and that my feelings for her had deepened.
"I like this woman," she whispered to me, "she's not an ordinary girl."
"Heroes think alike." I nodded my head and said happily to her.
The two of us looked at each other and smiled. I thought how many people would not be able to see us on their knees anyway, so I quietly moved, next to the crescent, and then hit it with my own shoulder.
She bumped back at me, and the two of us sat tight together, enjoying ourselves.
"Stop messing around, be careful not to get discovered." The girl beside us reminded us kindly.
I also felt that something wasn't right, so I quickly kneeled down. In the end, when she was playing happily, she didn't notice that I had already stopped. She even hit me with all her strength before I elegantly fell to the ground.
"Ouch." I screamed out subconsciously.
After shouting out, I immediately covered my mouth, but everyone's gaze has already locked onto me. I looked at the numerous gazes that were shooting over.
There were those who were afraid, those who were gloating, and those who were worried. Those who were gloating were naturally Qiu Yi and Su Su, and the ones who were worried were Xiao Yue and the woman.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was because I pushed Yu Xing that she fell." She was scared silly and quickly came to my side to beg for forgiveness.
I was very touched. In fact, I could just stay out of this, but she even helped me take responsibility for it. This friend of mine is mine.
I still sat on the ground, smirking idiotically at Xiao Yue. Xiao Yue was already drenched in cold sweat from fright and hurriedly tugged at me.
"Your majesty, this person is rude, and he just made things difficult for the Lady Autumn. Look at how the Lady Autumn is crying from being bullied, and now that he is disturbing the emperor's carriage, he deserves to die a thousand times for his crimes." Before the Emperor could speak, Su Su had already begun to sue the enemy.
"Su Su, don't be rude. It's all my fault for letting Miss vent her anger on me."
Once again, I was disgusted by Qiu Yi. These words seemed to say that I had done something to her. I rolled my eyes. "White Lotus."
"Raise your head." A voice floated down from above. It was the Emperor's voice.
Actually, I didn't want to see the Emperor. Moreover, at such a moment of humiliation, I was lying on the ground by myself. Then, I raised my head and smiled awkwardly at the Emperor.
Although I couldn't see it, I knew that my posture and expression at that time must have been hilarious.
