The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 246

Zhuge Wan'er whispered to Shangguan Ziling, "Sister Ziling, what do you think? Isn't this Miao Huadan a wonderful person? His voice is ethereal and pleasant, I like him so much!" Her words revealed her love and appreciation for Miao Huadan, and her eyes were shining with excitement.

Shangguan Ziling smiled slightly when she heard this and said, "Well, not bad."

Dongfang Piaoyi's face darkened as he said sourly, "Isn't he just a pretty boy? What's so good about him? His voice is neither male nor female, what's so good about it?"

Shangguan Ziling found it a little funny when she heard that, and said, "Oh! Is someone jealous? So sour, tsk tsk tsk!" There was a sense of teasing and mockery in her words.

Dongfang Piaoyi jumped up as if he had been hit by a cannonball, "Little girl, stop talking nonsense, who is jealous?" His words revealed a sense of denial and anger, but his eyes revealed a hint of panic and uneasiness.

The people around them looked at them with unfriendly eyes.

Zhuge Wan'er glared at Dongfang Piaoyi and said, "Why are you speaking so loudly? Why don't you sit down?" There was a sense of blame and dissatisfaction in her words, which made Dongfang Piaoyi feel a little embarrassed and self-blame.

Dongfang Piaoyi sat down with mixed feelings.

He knew that his words and actions just now were a bit extreme, but he didn't know why it happened.

Dongfang Piaoyi looked at the wonderful actress on the stage, and an inexplicable anger surged in his heart. He really didn't know that a pretty boy singing songs, that woman actually said she liked him, hum! Damn it, didn't she say she liked him before? It's only been a short time, and she changed like this?

Dongfang Piaoyi was getting more and more angry, he really wanted to chop this pretty boy up.

Shangguan Ziling looked at Dongfang Piaoyi and felt a little amused and helpless. You know, when she first met Zhuge Wan'er, Dongfang Piaoyi disliked Zhuge Wan'er, but now, it's interesting, and I don't know what happened between them.

So, she said to Zhuge Wan'er: "Wan'er, let's continue to enjoy the opera."

Zhuge Wan'er nodded, and the two continued to immerse themselves in the opera.

Dongfang Piaoyi sat alone opposite, brows furrowed, lost in thought.

The Miao Huadan on the stage finished her song, and her plaintive voice was still echoing in the air. The audience seemed to be still immersed in the moving melody, unable to extricate themselves for a long time. However, just as the Miao Huadan was about to leave the stage gracefully, an abrupt voice broke the tranquil atmosphere.

"Miao Huadan, come back with me. I will keep you." The voice came from a fat woman dressed in luxurious clothes. Her face was thickly powdered and her hair was adorned with gold, silver and jewels, each of which sparkled brightly.

Shangguan Ziling looked at her, her eyes twitching slightly, thinking to herself: What kind of aesthetic is this? Is she afraid that others don't know that she is rich? Isn't she afraid of being robbed?

Qiu Kui whispered behind her: "Princess, this is the daughter of the richest imperial merchant in the capital, she has a lot of money."

Shangguan Ziling heard this and realized that this was the case. He was really a rich man!

At this moment, Qian Duoduo seemed dissatisfied with Miao Huadan's refusal. She walked onto the stage with heavy steps and grabbed Miao Huadan's arm.

Miao Huadan staggered and almost fell, which shows how strong Qian Duoduo is.

Qian Duoduo looked at Miao Huadan with disdain and said coldly, "You are just an actor, and you dare to reject me? I like you, don't be ungrateful."

Upon seeing this, the troupe's owner immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.

He quickly stepped forward and tried to calm down the sudden conflict. He repeatedly bowed to Qian Duoduo and apologized, saying, "Miss Qian, please calm down. The Miao Huadan in our troupe has always been committed to art and does not participate in any worldly disputes. Please forgive me."

The boss' words revealed a sense of pleading and helplessness. He knew Qian Duoduo's identity and background very well and did not dare to neglect him in the slightest.

However, Qian Duoduo didn't seem to intend to let Miao Huadan go easily. She widened her eyes and stared at Miao Huadan fiercely, as if she wanted to eat her alive.

Zhuge Wan'er stood up with a sarcastic smile on her face. Her voice was clear and powerful, echoing in the hall: "Oh, you are really a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, so shameless..." She deliberately stretched out her voice, making every word full of sarcasm and ridicule.

Zhuge Wan'er's words were like stones thrown into a pond, causing ripples.

Those who had originally been concerned about Qian Duoduo's identity couldn't help but burst into laughter at this moment.

As they looked at Qian Duoduo's fat body and the thick makeup on her face, they couldn't help feeling absurd.

Qian Duoduo's face turned red. She let go of Miao Huadan's arm, turned around and glared around, trying to find out who was laughing at her.

"Who? Who said that?" Her voice was sharp and harsh, full of anger and dissatisfaction. She stared with wide eyes and looked around, trying to find the person who dared to challenge her authority.

Zhuge Wan'er said loudly: "I'm telling you, look at your body and your face full of powder, don't you have any self-awareness?"

Qian Duoduo was stunned. She couldn't believe her ears. She had never met such a bold woman who dared to laugh at her so directly.

Qian Duoduo's gaze swept through the crowd and finally stopped on Zhuge Wan'er.

Qian Duoduo was not familiar with this young woman and she looked unfamiliar. There were many dignitaries in the capital city. Qian Duoduo felt confident instantly when he saw that she looked unfamiliar and was not the daughter of an aristocratic family.

Qian Duoduo immediately ordered: "Come here, arrest this damn girl who dared to laugh at me!" Her voice was sharp and harsh, full of anger and majesty.

As soon as Qian Duoduo finished speaking, the guards and servants she brought from her mansion immediately took action.

They quickly rushed towards Zhuge Wan'er, trying to catch her.

Shangguan Ziling and Dongfang Piaoyi were both drinking tea elegantly, not worried about Zhuge Wan'er at all, because looking at these guards and servants they knew that they only knew some boxing and kicking, and would not be Zhuge Wan'er's opponent.

However, Zhuge Wan'er was agile and responsive, and easily dodged the guards' attack. Her movements were smooth and graceful, as if she was dancing.

Zhuge Wan'er did not stop, she continued to attack the guards. Her punches and kicks were as fast as lightning, and each punch accurately hit the guards' vital points.

The guards fell to the ground one after another, wailing miserably.

The hall was in chaos, and everyone screamed and ran out of the hall. Only a few people stayed there, staring at Zhuge Wan'er's performance in amazement.

Qian Duoduo looked at this scene with his eyes wide open.
