Liu Hui Ying watched the women run away and curled her lips in disdain, just this much guts and they dared to go against her? They should go and look in the mirror whether their faces were thicker or her fists! She was a celestial master as long as she lost her temper, she could make a grown-up man cry what was with this small Concubine?

Though Liu Hui Ying was not someone who was willing to forgive someone who came looking for death she did not say anything to Concubine Qin nor did she retaliate against her, the reason was simple. That woman had a very thick black cadaveric qi covering her face, from one look alone, she could see that the woman was going to face a deathly calamity but she did not say anything to the woman.

Just now when the woman came to stand in front of her, she smelled the scent of human blood from the woman's hands which meant that Qin Mu Xiao will definitely face her karma for taking so many human lives, there was nothing that she could do about this, Karma was at play, what was she supposed to do about this matter anyway?

As long as this case had nothing to do with her, Liu Hui Ying did not wish to get involved in the matters which concerned Qin Mu Xiao and even if the fire somehow really burned her then she would think about crossing the bridges later on.

While she was thinking about this, she felt someone sit next to her, with a twist of her neck, she turned to look at Concubine Xie who was smiling at her, this smile was very different from the haughty smile that Concubine Xie had shot her earlier in the past when she came to see her.

"What's the matter with you? Don't wish to follow your leader?" Liu Hui Ying asked with a deliberate raise of her brows as she looked at Concubine Xie whose face flushed red in shame when she heard Liu Hui Ying's words, she was really ashamed that she heard the words of her father and found trouble with such a dashing woman.

Concubine Xie lowered her head, while her head thumped wildly as she looked at Liu Hui Ying and then said in a soft voice, " I do not mean to harm your, your majesty. I have been following Concubine Qin for a long time and since neither you nor imperial concubine Ji had taken control of the harem, she treats us all as if we are her underlings just because she has a background better than ours."

" Then why are you sitting with me? Should you not be following your leader and making jokes to lighten the mood?" Liu Hui Ying placed the tea on the table and then picked up the small, fingertip size cake from the plate which was in front of her and then took a bite from it. " You should be trying to cajole her, lest she makes trouble for you."

" I… but this concubine wants to follow, your majesty," Concubine Xie finally summoned her courage as she spoke to Liu Hui Ying who paused in her actions of eating cake and frowned before asking, " Sorry ?"

" I … this concubine was won over by the dance which your majesty performed, it was brimming with so much courage and even though it looked vulgar, I think that it was really good, not many can combine elegance and boldness not even trained dancers but her majesty was able to do with ease, I think its truly fascinating!" As concubine Xie finished her passionate speech, Nanny Gong and Xiao Ai who were standing behind Liu Hui Ying shivered together in fright.

The two of them turned to look at Concubine Xie's nanny and maid with a twist of their neck causing the latter two women to turn away in shame, in fact, they tried to make their mistress give up her plans of getting engrossed with that vulgar dance but it was as if concubine Xie was hoodwinked by the beauty of Liu Hui Ying, no matter how they tried to divert the attention of their missy, she will come back to the initial point!

And why were the maids and nannies of Liu Hui Ying looking at them like this? They were troubled by the show that her majesty gave to their missy as well. Did they think that they were the only ones who were bothered by that dance? They were bothered as well!

The maids had a lot of complaints and so did the nannies but Liu Hui Ying did not have any complaints, when she saw that someone had finally seen the elegance in the pole dance which she performed, she immediately took Concubine Xie's hands and slapped the table as she exclaimed in excitement, " You are right, you are truly right!"

With her finger which was pointing at concubine Xie, she waved her hand a little and then said with a smile on her face, " I knew that someone would find it, even though many could not see it, I expected that someone smart would still be in this harem, man who would have thought that you will be the wise one among the fools?"

Concubine Xie looked at Liu Hui Ying and then looked down at the hands which were holding hers and blushed furiously, she did not feel like this even when she thought about his majesty…does this mean that she adored a woman?

While Concubine Xie's heart was in turmoil with happiness, Zhai Tianyu's heart was in turmoil because of sadness, he looked at Concubine Xie whose hands were clutched by Liu Hui Ying and the sense of foreboding rose even more strongly in his heart.

" My queen …" please don't walk down the wrong path! I can satisfy you better than that woman can! He roared in his heart but before his mouth could roar the same words, it was covered by Yu Lingyun and Zhai Heng who knew that whatever that was going to come out of his majesty's mouth now was not going to be anything good.
