Tang Xia inexplicably felt sorry for herself.

After roaming all over the country for 20 years, she finally made up her mind for her beloved male god to take the road of no regret – the broadcast room.

In her first task, she met the arrogant and vindictive man, and finally escaped from the huge trouble in which things happened in the most unconventional ways in history. After a week of recuperation, she got involved in yet another big problem.

Tang Xia wanted to work hard and slowly approach her male god in a slow and steady way.

Unexpectedly, the progress of the tyrant’s mission was stuck at this critical juncture.

“Your Grace, the emperor demands you attend tonight’s banquet,” Lyuyou reminded in a soft voice, putting down the jewelry box in her palm.

Tang Xia raised her chin and appreciated the beautiful girl in the bronze mirror – white skin like porcelain with a superior white glaze to Helian Jue, her peach blossom eyes slightly upturned, and her delicate nose below all contributed to her exceptional beauty.

“I see,” Tang Xia sighed, leaning her slender body softly on the gold redwood table.

“Tonight, Lengmei will attend the banquet in blue. I remember that Your Grace has a deep blue fairy dress with beautiful drapes. With your overwhelming beauty, Your Grace will definitely become the most attractive woman in this dress.”

Tang Xia nodded following her words. Then she bolted upright as something came to mind, “Will all the people in the palace attend the evening banquet?” She asked.

“All imperial concubines will attend with their own personal servant girls. Outsiders are not allowed to enter or leave, except for maid-servants needed for the banquet.” Lyuyou said with careful consideration.

“That was what it meant by a family feast.”

Knowing what it was all about, Tang Xia thought, “It seems that Chu Tiankuo will not appear…”

After a sigh of relief, Tang Xia got busy with dressing herself up.

At the previous few banquets, Tang Xia just put a little make-up. But Helian Jue strictly prohibited unauthorized people to enter this family feast – it must matter a lot.

Tang Xia, a little-known anchor, needed to successfully counterattack as a supporting actress this time. So she must not lose the opportunity at hand.

As daylight faded, the evening breeze blew across the grassland. Like ink spilling into the horizon and staining the sky black, the color of the firmament became darkened, revealing stars tucked in the cloudy sky.

In front of the Hecheng hall, Tang Xia bent over and easily jumped off from the imperial carriage. With oil lamps everywhere inside the Hecheng hall, the candlelight flickered, and Tang Xia was supported by Lyuyou as they moved to the seat for the imperial concubines.

Helian Jue sat in the midst of luxury and pleasure, and his mesmerizing appearance became a bit more breathtaking in the enhancing light.

“Yue Ji, there you are.” Helian Jue nodded to Tang Xia. Then Tang Xia curtsied to the emperor before she went back to her seat.

Lengmei was the next person to arrive.

After Eunuch Shun called out the title of Lengmei, Tang Xia easily noticed that Helian Jue wore a heavy look right away.

“Does he care about that woman so much that only attending a banquet with her could influence his mind?” Tang Xia thought.

Lengmei still wore a cold expression, with her beautiful lips closed tightly and long hair tied up. Wearing a blue fairy dress like what Lyuyou had said, she looked a bit more enchanting.

“Lengmei, Lengmei, she really is a cold but charming woman.”

Resting his chin up on one elbow, Tang Xia fixed her eyes on Lengmei and Helian Jue unscrupulously.

From the moment Lengmei appeared, Helian Jue did not say a word to her. It seemed that two of them had made an appointment in the banquet but each of them just talked with people around them.

Standing by Tang Xia, Lyuyou reminded her softly, “Your Grace, Lengmei is here.”

Wearing an indistinct smile, Tang Xia stood up elegantly, flapping the sleeves of her blue fairy dress.

“I, Yue Ji, would like to propose a toast to you, the emperor.”

Helian Jue was startled a little bit at first, then turned the deep gaze to Tang Xia. Finally, he drank the wine for her.

The banquet came to a climax gradually, Eunuch Shun moved towards Helian Jue with his body raised slightly, then whispered something to him.

Not knowing what had been said, what Tang Xia saw was that Helian Jue said waving his loose sleeves, “Then summon Guard Chu.”

Eunuch Shun obeyed and shrieked, “Summon Guard Chu.”

Tang Xia then choked on her wine.

Chu Tiankuo still wore the silver armor of that day. The light in his starry eyes was like the shiniest star in the solitary night. Owning an angular face, he cast his haughty eyes on Tang Xia with an air of coldness around him.

But he looked away in an instant.

Thinking of the African gorilla he said that day, Tang Xia flustered a little bit and drank the wine faster.

It was unknown when Helian Jue focused his eyes on Tang Xia, “My beloved imperial concubine, the fairy dress you wear today is beautiful. I am pleased that you chose the color blue I like.”

Tang Xia’s delicate fingers froze for a moment.

“Ugh! God knows that you like blue…” Tang Xia thought.

But she did not miss the opportunity to behave lovably and said, “I’m glad you like it.”

Hearing Tang Xia’s words, Helian Jue nodded with satisfaction. However, a cold voice came from the other side, “It is just a blind imitation with a ludicrous effect.”

As Tang Xia squinted in the direction of the sound, she found that Lengmei’s cold face looked a bit more coquettish in the flickering candlelight.

With a letter of challenge laid in front of her, how could Tang Xia not fight back?

Holding her waist, Tang Xia opened her red lips gently and said slowly, “I, as a senior imperial concubine, want you to understand that the allusion to blind imitation refers to the fact that even the ugliest one should yearn for beauty.”

“I am not Dongshi who imitates blindly, and you are not capable of being the beauty Xishi. You should think over the differences.”

Although Tang Xia’s eyes curved upwards, no smile could be seen at the bottom of them.

With her eyebrow wrinkled tightly, Lengmei said in a colder voice, “Among the imperial harem, everyone knows that Yue Ji likes plain pink. What is your plan of wearing a blue fairy dress in such an occasion?”

Her eyebrows twitching slightly, Tang Xia thought, “The taunts of Lengmei seem too insincere.”

“Ah…” Tang Xia gave a long sigh.

Lengmei asked discontentedly, “What do you sigh for?”

“I sighed because everyone knows that the Lengmei living in Yanyue Hall is sophisticated. Why are you so stupid now?”

“The emperor said just now that he was in favor of blue. I choose the blue dress in order to make the emperor happy. But you insist that I am following your style. You are just a junior imperial concubine, why would I, as a senior imperial concubine, need to imitate your dressing style?”

Tang Xia’s words were full of insinuations.

Hearing what Tang Xia had said, Lengmei’s look changed a little bit and her blue sleeves floated slightly. There was a fruity scent from the dining-table and beautiful music was being played by the band. Having seen what happened, Helian Jue remained still in his chief seat.

Wearing an indistinct smile with his bright and clean forehead, Helian Jue cast his eyes on Lengmei and Tang Xia alternately.

“Good!”

With that concluding word, Helian Jue came down from his chief seat clapping. Finally, he fixed his eyes containing a smile on Tang Xia in astonishment.

“It never occurred to me that the lovable Yue Ji could be so eloquent.” The emperor said.

Tang Xia bent down and said, “Thank you for your compliment, Emperor.”

“My beloved imperial concubine, you look truly pure and beautiful in this dress. How about performing an impromptu dance?” The emperor asked.

“D- d- dance?”

Tang Xia’s look froze immediately.

[Fans] Two Men Wept: Anchor… can you perform a palace dance?

[Fans] Table Lamp Jiang: Anchor, how are you reduced to dancing for Helian Jue? The last anchor of the broadcast room in the Legend of Zhen Huan was exploited by Zhen Huan, the cattish woman who played a dirty trick, into becoming a slave girl of Huanyi Bureau which offered laundry service just because she could not perform Chinese classical dance. :'(

[Fans] My Father Is Ligang: That is not bad, (funny face) it can become a drama played at 8 p.m. that tells the story of how a slave girl of Huanyi Bureau is promoted to the empress of Helian Jue.

[Fans] Sprite and Lemon: Back off! You anti-fans! I believe that anchor can do it well! Anchor, just wait for me, I will look up the strategy of promotion in Huanyi Bureau for you!

Tang Xia wept inside her heart again and answered, “I can dance… waltz… ”

Having heard the deep laughter behind her, Tang Xia tried to turn a deaf ear to it, but Chu Tiankuo’s handsome look appeared in her mind.

Then Tang Xia’s face flushed right away.

“Waltz? Is it a new type of dance? I have never heard of it.” Helian Jue contemplated for a while and said, “Then just dance waltz, I would like to enjoy your beautiful dance in your blue dress.”

“Do you need the band to accompany your dance, my beloved imperial concubine?”

With her flickering eyes, Tang Xia looked into Helian Jue’s starry eyes.

Standing aside, Chu Tiankuo lowered his head a little bit with his shoulder shaking up and down slightly.

“He must be laughing at me!”

Tang Xia summoned up her courage to face Helian Jue and said, “Emperor, I would like to show my best performance for you…”

“But you may not know that waltz should be performed by a couple. And I intend to learn it well before teaching you myself so that I can have the opportunity to dance with you, the emperor… However… ”

“It is impossible now… ”

With her big flickering peach blossom eyes, Tang Xia said elegantly. Her beautiful look must be more enchanting in the sight of Helian Jue.

Helian Jue was stunned for a long time then sighed slowly and gently, “I appreciate your painstaking efforts.”

Seeing that Tang Xia itched to dance, Helian Jue did not want to upset her and said, “Who can dance the waltz? I offer you an opportunity to dance with Yue Ji today.”

But no one was willing to come forward.

Tang Xia pretended to feel really hurt and had a deep sigh, “I just blame the embarrassment today on myself for learning the waltz. This dance fits kungfu practitioners so it takes a long time for me to make a little progress. ”

“Those seated in the banquet are all imperial concubines and are all graceful. Who can perform the dance based on Chinese kungfu?”

What Tang Xia meant was very clear that Helian Jue should pick one who has mastered Chinese kungfu.

“Everything I want to offer to my beloved imperial concubine should be a piece of cake.” Helian Jue said, looking around, “What we need is just a kungfu practitioner.”

Then he said with a wave of his hand, “Guard Chu, It is you then.”

Everyone was amazed and Helian Jue said, “Dance the waltz with Yue Ji.”

Chu Tiankuo’s face darkened.

Seeing what had happened, Tang Xia smiled complacently and bowed deeply to the emperor, “I am deeply grateful that you care about me so much.”

Then she turned to the band and requested, “Please play the music quietly and gently, would you?”

And Helian Jue nodded, hinting that the band should follow Tang Xia’s will.

Tang Xia walked up to Chu Tiankuo with a sly smile in her eyes and said offering her delicate hand, “Will you dance with me, Guard Chu?”

Chu Tiankuo remained silent for a moment then bowed to Helian Jue and modestly said, “Your majesty flatters me, I am clumsy, but I will try to perform for you.”

Tang Xia and Chu Tiankuo walked slowly to the center of the hall together with their hands held. It happened to be the brief pause of the band changing music so there was an eerie quiet inside the Hecheng hall for a while.

Tang Xia put her hand on Chu Tiankuo’s shoulder and said, “Guard Chu, how have you been?”
