“Yes . ” The guard froze halfway through standing up before suddenly asking, “What if she doesn’t want to leave?”
“Tie her up and take her back; she will return to the posthouse . ”
The corner of the imperial guard’s mouth twitched . Prince Hao sure is violent . “Yes, this subordinate understands . ”
There was no way that Pei Qianhao would let these people see Su Xi-er again . It had originally been his idea to bring her to the state banquet, but he hadn’t wanted her to twist her waist and bottom in front of so many men . Even if she twists around, it should depend on who is in front of her .
I will forgive her this time, but there won’t be a next time . Rather, I will not allow her to contact Yun Ruofeng in the future .
Shortly after, Ning Anlian slowly walked up the stairs with a Chinese zither in her hands . The only problem was that the way she was walking looked inexplicably strange .
Pei Qianhao knew that the Eldest Imperial Princess’ ankle was injured, and could tell from just a glance . Ning Lianchen however, stared at Ning Anlian, thinking that her gait was rather strange .
In the end, he managed to figure out that something was wrong with her leg that was causing her to walk slowly . After all, the Ning Anlian I know isn’t someone who would walk so carefully .
Once she properly sat down, a melodious sound began to echo from the zither in Ning Anlian’s hands . At the very least, she was experienced enough to put on a performance at this banquet .
The gentle sound from the Chinese zither gradually heightened before returning to a slow and gentle melody . It then rose towards another peak, ending the performance .
The song was finished!
The performance just now could be considered average; certainly not enough to amaze the guests who had listened to many beautiful pieces .
But, she is the Eldest Imperial Princess of a nation after all . Everyone still clapped their hands politely .
Ning Anlian’s expression was proud . Finally, I have won some face back .
She stood up with a beaming smile, and bowed towards everyone to thank them . “This Princess has little talent and not much knowledge . I hope that the sound from my Chinese zither didn’t smear everyone’s ears . ”
After she finished talking, she stood up . But suddenly . . .
“Ouch!” A sharp pain shot up from her ankle, and although Ning Anlian tried to endure it, she still ended up crumpling to the ground in the end .
With a loud bang, the nation’s Eldest Imperial Princess fell to the ground, making a sorry sight . The panicked stumbling caused her head ornament to tilt to the side, only serving to make her current predicament even more miserable .
Everyone present was stunned by what just happened . Yun Ruofeng was even more worried, directly standing up from his seat .
“Eldest Imperial Princess!” A palace maid immediately walked up to try to support her, but no matter what the former did, Ning Anlian couldn’t stand up . She could only feel the excruciating pain in her ankle, unable to muster up any strength at all .
This time hurt even more than when she had walked up the stage . Ning Anlian’s face suddenly became pale . Only after several more moments did she finally manage to straighten her body .
“What happened?” Chu Linglong was the most gossipy, and couldn’t help but become curious when he saw this happening .
But apart from Ning Anlian, Yun Ruofeng, and Pei Qianhao, no one else knew the truth . They could only speculate .
Pei Qianhao’s expression was indifferent . No one could tell what he was thinking from his deep eyes .
People’s imaginations ran wild . Based on Ning Anlian’s expression and limp, it was clear that the injury affecting her leg wasn’t something minor .
Chu Linglong stood up and asked, “Eldest Imperial Princess, what’s wrong? Is your foot injured?”
Ning Anlian was in so much pain that she didn’t want to talk to anyone . She could only walk carefully with a pale face .
Chu Linglong didn’t give up just because of this and continued to ask, “Eldest Imperial Princess, it doesn’t look like a minor injury . How did you get injured when you were fine just a minute ago?”
