“Pfft.”

Gu Yanfei’s clear laughter interrupted the dark and turbulent atmosphere, making Chu You slightly stunned.

Gu Yanfei smiled like a flower and didn’t even look at Chu You. She tilted her little face and looked at Chu Yi’s perfect side profile.

Why did she feel that her beauty was inferior to his?

It was his honor. Chu Yi also smiled, his eyes gentle.

The way the two of them acted as if no one was around made Chu You almost flip the table. However, he forcefully restrained himself and glanced at Baili Yin, thinking that he would have a reaction.

But-

Baili Yin was in a daze, and his eyes were wandering. No one knew what he was thinking. He didn’t look at Gu Yanfei at all, and he drank alone. He drank cup after cup and was a little anxious.

Chu You’s face froze again.

Yuan Zhe was also looking at Baili Yin and frowned slightly.

“Ahem.” He placed his fist by his lips, cleared his throat, and said to Baili Yin, “Third Prince Baili has been in the capital for a while. What do you think of the capital?”

Baili Yin, who was drinking, came back to his senses. At the same time, he awkwardly realized that the wine glass was already empty. He forced himself to act as if nothing had happened.

He laughed and put down his empty wine glass. “Your country is beautiful and outstanding, but this beauty can’t compare to our country’s.”

“Our country’s beautiful women are gentle and demure. They’re delicate and moving, as light as a chrysanthemum, as elegant as orchids, and as gentle as water.”

“But…”

With that, Baili Yin paused for a moment. An abnormally bright and sharp light flashed across his eyes. “When it comes to beauties, no one can compare to Lord Xia.”

These words were just a test. As he spoke, Baili Yin’s heart secretly beat wildly, but he didn’t show it on his face. From the corner of his eye, he looked at the young man in red, who was only a few feet away, and paid attention to the change in his expression.

When he heard the other party mention Xia Houqing, Yuan Zhe’s expression turned solemn. He said in a cautious tone, “I heard that Lord Xia wears a mask all year round. No one has ever seen his true appearance.”

It was no secret that the Heavenly Palace had only been given orders by the Sages of the State of Yue. The Lords had always covered their faces with masks.

Baili Yin listened attentively to Yuan Zhe’s words and focused more of his energy on Young Master Xia. Seeing that he wasn’t moving, his heart was in his throat.

Baili Yin gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He pretended to be frivolous and smiled as he poured wine from the wine jar. “Other than the Sage, no one has ever seen Lord Xia’s appearance. However, with his figure, he’s definitely a beauty.”

As soon as he said this, the hair on his neck instantly stood on end, as if he felt a killing intent that seeped into his bones. His hand that was holding the wine pot subconsciously trembled.

The wine poured from the spout trembled and spilled outside the wine glass.

The wine flowed down the table and splashed on the floor.

Baili Yin still forced himself to be calm as he filled his wine cup. Only then did he look at Young Master Xia.

Xia Houqing’s thick black eyelashes were half-lowered, and his expression was calm. There was no change in his expression. He was still drinking tea, and his flowing black hair hung by one side of his face. He didn’t look up, as if nothing was more important than the tea in his hand.

Could it be my illusion just now? Baili Yin couldn’t help but think. He comforted himself in his heart: That’s right, it must have been an illusion.

Four years ago, when Xia Houqing was first appointed as the Lord of the Heavenly Palace, there were three or four young masters who teased him on the spot with frivolous words. In the end, one of the three young masters died, and two were crippled. Blood splattered all over the palace.

For this matter, several censors from the censorate jointly impeached Xia Houqing. However, the Sage protected them, and those censors were expelled in just a few days.

From then on, no one dared guess Xia Houqing’s appearance or figure. They were as afraid as tigers.

With Xia Houqing’s personality, he would probably kill anyone who dared talk about him in such a teasing and frivolous tone.

Young Master Xia was definitely not Xia Houqing!

Baili Yin’s loss of composure was obvious. Chu You and Yuan Zhe naturally noticed it too. They slowly looked at each other and felt that Baili Yin cared too much about Young Master Xia.

Chu You found it strange and looked at Xia Houqing with suspicion.

Young Master Xia was indeed outstanding and could be said to be peerless.

However, as the Third Prince of the State of Yue, Baili Yin had seen countless beauties. Did he have to lose his composure because of Young Master Xia?

Yuan Zhe waved his long sleeves and said with a smile, “This beauty has her own unique characteristics. The women from Jiangnan are graceful, and the women from the Northwest are forthright and generous. The noble ladies in the capital also have their own merits.. The talented women from scholarly families are knowledgeable, and the noble ladies from noble families are the most unrestrained…”
