The fierce dance
was forgivable, no matter how unpopular it was.
Jun Xu thought so, so as an exhibit at the banquet, she was displayed with a faint smile, being teased and mocked.
In one’s life, having experienced life and death, in the end, many things fade, such as glory and disgrace. So Jun Xu was truly smiling, watching this drama performed by the crowd.
She is in the play of life, knowing that all of this will become a thing of the past when death comes, like a layer of mist that disappears without a trace when the wind blows. At the moment of death, the wind is light and the clouds are calm, and all the grievances and grudges are over. Apart from the relief of loneliness and the desolation of death, the most is the sense of detachment after breaking free.
The problem is that she has died, but Tong Li has not. The boy keeps his head down, like a small animal that dares to be angry but dares not speak, his fists clenched until they turn bloody. It was hard to bear.
Jun Xu naturally took most of the insults and sarcasm upon himself, gently covering Tong Li with his body. Yizhou City Lord Shen Da sat in his high position, holding a wine cup, and coldly watched Jun Xu smilingly respond. A smile-like arc hung at the corner of his mouth, neither fueling the flames nor stopping them with words. With the tacit approval of the city lord, the crowd became even more unrestrained
‘Your Highness is so angry over General Tong Xiao that you don’t care about your ancestors anymore. I’m sure General Tong Xiao is incredibly beautiful.‘
The crowd laughed lewdly. Tong Li suddenly looked up, and Jun Xu couldn’t help but frown slightly. The situation seemed to be getting out of control. As soon as the others saw Tong Li react, they became even more aggressive. Their eyes swept over him wantonly
’Your Highness, how can you not see that this peerless beauty is in pain?’
Junxu’s smile gradually faded, and he gently reached out to cover Tongli’s clenched fist. He felt the child tremble violently, and sighed softly. The more he did this, the more these ruffians would find it interesting.
‘Your Highness, you must make a statement. Everyone is thinking about the beauty.’
‘Your Highness, are you not feeling well? Hahahaha.’
Junxu’s smile completely disappeared, but there was no anger on his face. He just looked at these half-drunk people indifferently. He raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head, and his pair of crystal-bright dark dragon eyes flashed through the crowd and directly connected with Shen Da’s. Shen Da was about to send the wine glass in his mouth to a stop.
Frowning lightly, Shen Da couldn’t quite figure out Jun Xu, the princess who seemed to be meekly accepting her fate. The look in her eyes was not one of begging, anger, or hatred, but… A smile, a very deep, yet faint smile.
Shen Da put down the wine glass and coughed lightly. Helplessly, everyone was having a good time, and no one noticed for a moment. A small displeasure surfaced on Shen Da’s face. Junxu turned her head and stopped looking at her.
‘Your Highness is such a pretty boy, General, you have to be careful not to let yourself go too much at night, hahahaha.’
