No one would have noticed this in the dark corner. He covered her mouth, restrained her randomly beating hands and feet, and whispered next to her ear, "You don't want people to come over and see our current appearance, do you?"

She didn't want to.

Su Zeyi could always easily pinch her weak spot and force her to quieten down with a single word.

When he felt Zhong Miao Yi's relaxed body, he let go of the hand that was covering her mouth. She didn't want to look at him with lowered eyes, and the stubbornness in her bones made her look as cold as ice.

He frowned and used his hand to pinch her chin to force her to look at him. The strength in his hand was a bit too much, and when Zhong Miao Yi glared at him, her eyes were sparkling and translucent.

"Lord Su?" His thumb gently caressed her bright and tender lips, and his voice even had a strange allure to it. "Are we that unfamiliar? "Wonderful."

Zhong Miao Yi shook her face with all her might, attempting to shake off Su Zeyi's hand. Her eyes were cold like a lump of ice, and she sputtered at Su Zeyi.

His temper was getting more and more unyielding.

Zhong Miao Yi was stunned for a moment, she felt as though her heart was struck by a hammer, causing her to be in pain. She was unable to push Su Zeyi away, and trying her best to resist was but a method to resist.

This was the first time she felt humiliated. She didn't think too much as she raised her knee to try to break free from his grasp. With a bit of force, she kicked his lower body where it was burning hot.

Su Zeyi's body stiffened, and he suddenly pushed himself forward. Zhong Miao Yi knew that she had caused trouble, but as long as he stopped humiliating herself.

Su Zeyi caught his breath, the look in his eyes turning into one that wanted to devour someone, as he fiercely grabbed Zhong Miao Yi by the neck. It was only until she was about to lose his breath that he flung her aside.

"Do you still remember your identity?" Su Zeyi warned her fiercely, his eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

She inhaled deeply. A moment ago, her vision had turned black, and she thought that she would be strangled to death: "I am a princess of Great Qi, I can't understand Lord Su's questions."

Su Zeyi looked at her for a long time, then suddenly laughed: "Well said, then you can do your job as the Great Qi Princess."

He turned and left without being able to see the emotions in his heart, but Zhong Miao Yi felt that she was even more breathless now than when she had been choked just now.

He wouldn't let her go, he warned her, he was already used to using her.

After Su Zeyi left, she stayed in this corner alone for a long time. In fact, she didn't even think about it at all, he simply didn't want to go out.

Suddenly, someone walked in from the side of the door. Zhong Miao Yi subconsciously buried her face in her knees, thinking that she would not be seen this way.

The footsteps suddenly stopped after walking two steps. Zhong Miao Yi heard a pleasant voice sound coming from above her head, as if it was saying to her, "You. Are you alright? "

She looked up expressionlessly. There was a man standing not far away. His face looked a little dark because of the backlight.

When Zhong Miao Yi raised his head, he was startled for a moment. Then, he probed: "Princess Miaoyi?"

Tang Yao?

The corner of Zhong Miao Yi's eyes twitched, but before she could reply, Xiao Yao rushed out to find her. She supported herself on the wall and stood up, squatting there for a long time.

His voice wasn't loud, it took Xiao Yao a long time to see the Zhong Miao Yi standing at the corner of the dimly lit wall. She vigilantly looked at the man who looked like a commander, and went over to help the Zhong Miao Yi: "Princess. "Why are you here? The palace banquet is about to begin, and the emperor is looking for you everywhere."

Due to the numbness in his legs, Zhong Miao Yi almost fell down when he was walking forward. Xiao Yao was shocked and hurriedly used all his strength to lift her up. Tang Yao slowly pulled his hand back in the middle. Are you alright? "

Zhong Miao Yi shook his head. After getting used to it, she was able to walk steadily: "I'm fine."

When he returned to the banquet, the emperor was talking to the late empress dowager. The empress dowager was old, her hair was almost white, but her complexion was still ruddy and she was laughing at the emperor's words.

The empress dowager was happy, so naturally, everyone felt much more relaxed.

When the Zhong Miao Yi sat down, she saw that Tang Yao had already walked up to the emperor's side, looking completely serious. Under the illumination of the sun, the Zhong Miao Yi was able to clearly see his clean and handsome face, which was the type of appearance that girls liked.

The emperor whispered something in response. After nodding his head several times, he took a step back and prepared to leave.

As if he felt Zhong Miao Yi's gaze, he suddenly raised his head and looked at her. Seeing her looking at him, he stopped and smiled at her.

Zhong Miao Yi's mind twitched, and unexpectedly replied with a light smile.

When she retracted her gaze and reached for the teacup on the table, she inadvertently saw Su Zeyi looking at her with a smile that was not a smile.

When they were almost done, the seat beside the Zhong Miao Yi was still empty.

Other than Su Zeyi, the Zhong Miao Yi did not know anyone else. The Emperor was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so he intentionally arranged a seat at the other side of the concubine.

Very soon, the eunuchs and palace maids started to serve hot dishes. An old lady walked in, and the way she walked showed that she had a very high bearing. The moment she entered the door, she immediately pounced towards the empress dowager, walking too fast for Zhong Miao Yi to see clearly.

She raised her head and smiled as she paid respects to the emperor. Seeing how the empress dowager doted on her, Zhong Miao Yi knew who this woman was. Prince Xiang's orphan, Princess Yun Mengqi, was raised by the empress dowager herself.

Yun Mengqi glanced at the Zhong Miao Yi, who lowered her eyes and focused on eating. The empress dowager asked Yun Mengqi where she went to play with concern.

After the dishes were served, the emperor said a few simple words. Because there was a lively atmosphere with many people, the servants all went outside to gather due to special gifts. As a result, no one served the dishes.

Yun Mengqi's voice was loud, and clamored that she must sit by Su Zeyi's side. This little overlord had never been provoked by anyone, so she just sat in front of Su Zeyi like a docile rabbit.

Zhong Miao Yi forced herself not to listen to Yun Mengqi's sweet voice and put down the chopsticks. When she raised her eyes, she coincidentally met Yun Mengqi's provocative and arrogant gaze. Zhong Miao Yi looked back at her coldly. Being looked at like that, Yun Mengqi was startled, as though he did not expect her to have the courage to retaliate.
