C397 Hallucination
"Princess?" Nanny He urged from the side.
If I kneel, wouldn't it be too easy for your consort?
Gong Xiaoche was also watching from the side. If not for Gong Xiaoxuan accompanying him to the empress dowager's side, Gong Xiaoche would have done the same as the imperial concubine.
They made Baili Jinxiu kneel to them in the name of the empress dowager.
"Royal Sister-In-Law, the empress dowager has been waiting for you and your royal brother the whole morning, why aren't you kneeling down?" Gong Xiaoche laughed on the side, his face full of foolishness.
Gong Xiaoxuan's expression did not change in the slightest, but Baili Jinxiu could feel that the black aura within Gong Xiaoxuan's originally dark and serene eyes was gradually condensing.
Being looked at by Gong Xiaoxuan, Gong Xiaoche immediately went silent.
However, Baili Jinxiu chuckled and unhesitatingly walked to the empress dowager's side, smiling as he brought the tea in his hand over to her.
However, she didn't kneel down, but asked softly, "Empress Dowager, could this child transform an illusion technique on you?"
The empress dowager's eyes, which were originally closed, slowly opened after hearing Baili Jinxiu's voice. The moment the empress dowager opened her eyes, Baili Jinxiu saw that she had a dizzy color.
The color was light gray, but not all eyes were blurred.
Baili Jinxiu was slightly stunned. The empress dowager was only the same age as his grandmother, although she was also in her early fifties. Yet, at her age, her eyes were already like this. No wonder the empress dowager hadn't appeared in front of anyone after returning to the capital.
It was just that his eyes were already blurry to the point that he couldn't see clearly.
"What illusion technique is this?" Didn't I hear from the imperial concubine that you've learnt medical skills? You still know illusion techniques? "
The empress dowager's voice carried a sense of steadiness. Her voice wasn't as gentle as Imperial Concubine's, nor was it as dignified as the empress's.
However, her voice carried a sense of being a leader. The moment she opened her mouth, she showed her might without getting angry, making others not dare to look down on her from the bottom of their hearts.
The imperial concubine cast a sidelong glance at Baili Jinxiu, and said with a mocking smile on his lips, "Princess An, the empress dowager will definitely understand your good intentions.
"It's just that the empress dowager's eyes were a bit blurry, so it's better if you kneel down and offer her some tea. For something so crafty, even if there's a chance or two, there won't be three."
Gong Xiaoxuan said coldly, "When did Your Imperial Concubine decide what was going to happen inside the empress dowager's palace?"
This was a question, but with Gong Xiaoxuan's status and abilities, the moment he said it, his imperial concubine's face changed.
She could stay by the empress dowager's side, but she absolutely could not give her any advice.
Otherwise, Emperor would not spare her.
"Prince An is getting serious, I just... I'm worried that the Princess An did not know his place and offended the empress dowager. " The imperial concubine said somewhat nervously.
Baili Jinxiu looked at Gong Xiaoxuan's ice-cold look, as if he was ignoring his imperial concubine, and from the bottom of his heart, he felt that his man was extremely handsome.
Just one sentence was enough to force the imperial concubine to the point of not daring to speak. How could such a wild and cool commander make her not work hard to walk with such a cool Prince An?
"Noble Consort, don't worry. As long as the empress dowager wants to see it, this wangfei will definitely help the empress dowager achieve her goals."
"Oh?" Hearing Baili Jinxiu's answer, the empress dowager was really interested in him. He pointed his finger at his own eyes and asked, "Even if I can't see, can you still let This Dowager see your illusion techniques?"
Baili Jinxiu firmly nodded his head, while Gong Xiaoche who was standing at the side unrestrainedly sneered.
"Alright, then change to let This Dowager see." The empress dowager leaned her body against the cushion behind her, her hand slowly resting on her knee.
As for the Imperial Concubine, she held onto the empress dowager's hand and missed.
With a smile on his lips, Baili Jinxiu gently lifted the cup with one hand. In that short moment of speaking, the tea that Nanny He had brought over was already cold.
"Old servant, let's exchange for a cup of tea." Nanny He said with great interest.
Baili Jinxiu nodded, and accepted the tea that the Nanny He had just exchanged and brought it to the empress dowager.
This was the tea that the empress dowager was used to drinking. As soon as she smelled it, the fragrance of the tea assaulted her nostrils. His face was slightly warmed by the hot tea that was rising in spirals.
Baili Jinxiu looked at the empress dowager as he closed his eyes once again, then slowly covered the cup with his hands. In just a split-second, Baili Jinxiu reached out and brushed past the empress dowager's eyes.
The empress dowager felt her eyes light up and she opened them radiantly.
The Imperial Concubine watched as Baili Jinxiu raised the teacup into the air to receive the scalding tea.
If the tea were to fall on someone's body, they would definitely be scalded.
Gong Xiaoche, who was standing at the side, looked at Baili Jinxiu's confident eyes.
Gong Xiaoche thought fiercely in the bottom of his heart. No matter what, he couldn't let Baili Jinxiu shine today.
However, just as his hand moved, it went numb. A peanut was placed on his wrist, causing him to hiss in pain.
And at this time, Baili Jinxiu was already holding a teacup, quickly catching the tea that had been splashed onto the table.
The imperial concubine was trembling with fear, afraid that she would be caught in the crossfire.
However, Baili Jinxiu's skill had already been mastered, and adding that in the modern world, she already liked the tea ceremony.
But what she liked was not the Japanese tea ceremony. That was because even though the tea was fragrant, it was not the kind of strong outburst that she loved.
What she liked was the traditional tea-pot style of the old Chinese teahouses.
A long canteen would be able to keep a long distance between them. He then poured the boiling hot water into the cup.
Thus, when Baili Jinxiu's teacup caught the scalding tea and placed a lid on it, his body turned and faced the cup towards the empress dowager's face, the imperial concubine who was standing at the side almost died from fright.
"What do you want to do?" The imperial concubine extended her hand to stop Baili Jinxiu's movements.
However, Baili Jinxiu's actions suddenly stopped in front of the empress dowager.
Baili Jinxiu said softly to the empress dowager as she opened the teacup, her gorgeous face revealing a smile filled with confidence.
"Empress Dowager, look."
Baili Jinxiu's eyes were still blurry. When he saw Baili Jinxiu's figure just now, he only felt that it was extremely laughable.
Her eyes were already blind, where could she see any illusions?
But when the empress dowager lowered her head, she suddenly saw a clear teacup placed before her.
The color of the tea inside the cup was so clear that the water inside the cup could be seen rotating.
As the cigarette curled up, it turned into an extremely cute whirlpool.
"This vortex .." The empress dowager's words shocked the imperial concubine.
"This .." The imperial concubine looked at all of this with widened eyes, not daring to believe how Baili Jinxiu had done it.
No matter if it was the whirlpool or the empress dowager's eyes, how did Baili Jinxiu do it?
