Li Changning stared at her movements.

However, just as Bai Xianyu was about to drink it, she suddenly paused and put the tea aside. She wiped her hands with a handkerchief and picked up a pastry from the jade plate.

“…Damn it.” Li Changning gritted her teeth and wished she could personally pour it down her throat.

But in the next moment, her heart was in her throat again.

After Bai Xianyu finished a piece of pastry, she rolled up her sleeves and gulped down the cup of tea.

Li Changning was overjoyed. She immediately called Qiao’er over and smiled sinisterly. “Not bad. Go back and receive your reward.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Next, they had to wait for the drug to take effect.

This medicine was colorless and odorless. Even when it acted up, it was very subtle. It would only make the person who took it immediately lose their mind as if they were drunk.

When the time came, she only needed to get the palace maid to say that Bai Xianyu had asked for the wine herself, and she would be able to clear her name!

And this cup of drink would make her lose her manners in front of all these important ministers, her father, and her great-grandmother!

She only needed to give Bai Xianyu a chance to “go crazy”.

It would be even better if she could say something treasonous. It would be best if she lost all her face and would never be able to marry!

After everyone presented their birthday gifts, two rows of women in dance clothes went on stage from the bottom right. Their faces were covered by a thin veil, and their slender waists turned gently. Their water sleeves fluttered as they danced on the stage.

Emperor Wu Xuan had already given the order just now, so everyone started to relax.

Ji Shuang asked for a jar of wine. Ignoring the opinions of others, she directly pried open the wine jar lid and drank. As she drank, she ate the food and watched the dance.

The dance ended.

Li Changning walked to the front of the stage and said with a smile, “Father, I’ve also prepared a song called Crossing the West Wind for Great-grandmother to listen to. 1 wonder if you could allow me to make a fool of myself playing it?”

Emperor Wu Xuan laughed majestically and looked at the Empress Dowager. “Then go ahead and play. Your Father will reward you handsomely if you play well.”

Li Changning smiled and said, “It’s a little boring to play the zither alone. How about you get someone to accompany it with a dance?”

She paused for a moment and pretended to think. Then, she glanced at Bai Xianyu below. “I heard that the General’s Manor’s Bai Xianyu dances very well. Why don’t you allow me to perform with her and celebrate Great-grandmother’s birthday together?”

Emperor Wu Xuan personally peeled the skin of the grapes for Noble Consort An. The beauty smiled back, and he was overjoyed. He nodded and said, “Approved.”

Li Changning suppressed the excitement in her heart. Even if it had been contaminated with just a tiny bit of paste from that packet of powder, she would still be totally drunk. She could guarantee that although Bai Xianyu was still sitting, her mind was definitely a mess!

She could not wait to see Bai Xianyu’s ugly state!

As soon as Emperor Wu Xuan finished speaking, Li Changning personally went to Bai Xianyu’s table and forcefully helped her up. “Sister Xianyu, don’t disobey the decree.”

Bai Xianyu was dragged up by her. Her usually bright eyes seemed to be covered in a layer of fog at the moment.

Li Changning was overjoyed and hurriedly dragged her forward.

On stage, the zither had already been set up. Bai Xianyu was pulled to a seat by Li Changning. During this period, Bai Xianyu did not struggle at all.

She had drunk a full cup but still acted as if nothing had happened. This drunken look was good.

Li Changning raised her chin arrogantly and glanced at her. She turned around and immediately smiled. “Father, let’s begin.”

“Yeah.”

The melodious sound of the zither slowly spread out, but the person standing at the side did not move at all.

This was exactly what Li Changning wanted. She was going to question her why she did not cooperate, whether she thought that her Father and Great-grandmother weren’t worthy of her dancing?

When the time came, Bai Xianyu would definitely not be able to say a word. If she took the opportunity to pinch her, the drunken Bai Xianyu would definitely retaliate!

Li Changning applauded her own plan. A cold smile appeared on her lips as she suddenly stopped what she was doing.

Everyone frowned. Xie Xingyun sensed that something was wrong and slowly narrowed his eyes.

Just when she was about to get up and speak, Bai Xianyu suddenly moved.

She smiled at the Empress Dowager above. Her smile was so overwhelmingly beautiful that it actually caused the latter to be stunned, as if she had thought of an old friend.

The wide-sleeved flowing fairy on her body seemed to be woven by the moonlight. It was like a silver-white fluorescent light that flashed in the air as she raised her arms and revealed her looks. Her beautiful face was slightly red, and she was extremely beautiful. Her body was extremely soft, and her soft appearance was especially lovable. Her waist was slender, and her legs were long. Her eyes glistened, and her red lips were slightly curved. Her skin was as white as snow.

Everyone was so mesmerized that they even forgot that Li Changning had stopped playing the zither..
