Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 107

Yun Shang frowned and kicked Wang Jinhuan. But no one saw that as their table was covered with a large red tablecloth. Wang Jinhuan grimaced in pain. Yun Shang withdrew her foot. Her eyebrows shot up when she found another pair of feet near hers.

Yun Shang frowned and looked at Prince Jing. He was looking at her mischievously.

"Qian Qian? Who is she? Why does she look like a temptress?" Lady Shun Qing frowned and muttered. She no longer watched the woman on the platform.

Wang Jinhuan put on a saccharine smile and said, "Lady Shun Qing, she is the most popular beauty in the Imperial City. Even though I spent a lot of money, I haven't gotten a chance to see her. It's great that I can meet her here today..."

Lady Shun Qing knew about Wang Jinhuan's reputation as a womanizer. So she knew what he meant. She frowned, "So, she is a prostitute?"

"Oh my! Lady Shun Qing, you can't say that. You shouldn't judge her by her job. Qian Qian is not only beautiful but also highly skilled in the Four Arts. No other person can compare with her favorably within the Imperial City. Lady Shun Qing, please just listen to the music." Wang Jinhuan exclaimed and spoke well of Qian Qian.

Lady Shun Qing shook her head, "You are too naughty. I have warned you not go to such shady places. But you seldom obey. Prince Jing is mature. You should learn from him." It seemed that Lady Shun Qing favored Wang Jinhuan. Yun Shang thought deeply, but she failed to recall any memories of Lady Shun Qing and Wang Jinhuan from her previous life.

Prince Jing whispered, "Lady Shun Qing has a close relationship with Wang Jinhuan's grandmother."

No wonder, Yun Shang thought to herself.

As the music started, everyone's attention was fixed on the platform. The song's name was, Ode to Plum Blossoms. The music was airy and ethereal. Gradually, the melody became exciting. It allowed the audience to imagine a plum tree blossoming on a snowy day. Then the tune became peaceful, just like the fragrance of plum blossoms.

When the music stopped, no one made a sound. They seemed to be immersed in the melody. Yun Shang smiled and gestured towards the platform. She said softly, "Melodic music."

As the guests woke from their trance, they applauded unceasingly.

Qian Qian stood and did a small courtesy to thank her audience. Some servants came to remove her zither. But she didn't step down from the stage. Everyone expected her to perform again.

A melody called Lotus in Blossom started. This time Qian Qian was not playing an instrument.

Instead, she was preparing to dance to the song. She positioned her hands and legs. Wang Jinhuan was too excited to move his eyes from her face. He said excitedly, "Is she going to dance?"

Yun Shang looked around and smiled. The other guests were attentively looking at Qian Qian. They only knew she was skilled in the Four Arts, but they had never seen her dance.

Her movements were enchanting. Wherever she stepped, a lotus would blossom. Soon, the fragrance of lotus permeated the air.

"Fabulous!" While the audience applauded, Yun Shang snickered. 'The more beautiful, the more toxic.'
