The sudden appearance of the emperor made everyone present extremely vigilant, and knelt in the direction of the emperor and said in unison: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live the queen." ”

"Everyone." The emperor entered a high position with the support of the eunuch, and a strong voice sounded.

Everyone got up, all the concubines and concubines on the steps had already sat down, and the prince and several princes also had their own positions, and then everyone's eyes were retracted to the stage, only to find two more strangers, one was a woman dressed in exotic colors, and the other was a middle-aged man with white hair and a long beard.

"These two are the envoys of the Star Moon Kingdom and the Princess of the Cherished Moon." The emperor looked at the puzzled looks of everyone in the stands and said.

Immediately, the two of them were introduced into the arranged positions, and then the banquet really began.

Nangong Lichuan appeared in front of everyone for a long time, and when he just entered this courtyard, he was looking for Luo Wushuang's figure, at this time, he looked at the table opposite the stage from the high position, and this direction was very good to see the person he was thinking about.

Tan Xiangxue has not left his sight since Nangong Lichuan appeared, and she obviously saw Nangong Lichuan's burning attention to Luo Wushuang.

"I heard that Nanli is full of talents, and he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I don't know if I can see it today." Princess Xiyue said to the emperor.

"Oh, if the princess wants to see it, then ask all the daughters of the family to volunteer to show it, and the good ones will be rewarded. Don't know where the princess wants to start?"

"Let's start with the dance, and then I want to see if the dance in your country is as wonderful as it is rumored."

"Okay, so who would like to give it a try?" The emperor asked everyone in the audience about the past.

"The courtiers are willing to give it a try and be the one who throws bricks and stones."

The audience looked at each other, many daughters hesitated, and the sudden sound made everyone's eyes focus on the woman.

"Who is she?" Luo Wushuang looked at the woman in white who stood up, and couldn't help but ask.

"She is Miss Chu Jiayan, Chu Xianyu, she rarely appears in front of the public, so it's normal that you don't know her, I also met it when I was a child, and I heard my mother say it."

"Uh-huh."

Chu Xianyu got on the stage arranged by his subordinates, it was a large drum platform, which was very magnificent. After a while, the pianists also sat aside, and as the vocal music sounded, the people on the stage also entered the state and began to settle their bodies.

The audience watched intently, vaguely with a lot of expectations for the woman who appeared, only to see Chu Xianyu's wrist twisted like the boneless willow, the water sleeves were long and waved, and the soles of the feet quickly guessed with the rhythm of the music.

The half-loud music fell slowly, and after the dance ended, many ministers in the audience applauded, Chu Xianyu leaned over and retreated from the stage, the emperor was in a good mood, and was about to reward him.

Princess Xiyue said: "The emperor doesn't have to be in a hurry to praise, there is a chance today, this princess is willing to compete with this young lady and show the demeanor of my Xingyue Kingdom." ”

"It's... It's not impossible for the princess to have Yaxing. ”

After getting the approval, Princess Xiyue got up and went to change her dance costume, and everyone in the audience talked about it, wondering if the princess was here to demonstrate and provoke, and some people were curious, and they had a little fun with the dance of Xingyue Kingdom.

When Princess Xiyue appeared, she had already changed into her country's special dance costume, only to see the skirt at the thigh tightly wrapped around the delicate body, the bandeau strap on the chest, and the long tassels vaguely blocked the waist and thighs, seducting people's souls, especially as she walked, the bells on the wrists and feet sounded crisply.

Looking at her makeup again, her hair is combed up without leaving any cover, revealing her fair and smooth skin, delicate facial features, as well as the small and bony collarbones, and the red makeup that bites her lip.

Princess Xiyue came to the stage, set the dance price, and the accompaniment sounded immediately, with all kinds of exotic styles, which made the people present pleasing to the eye, very shocking, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Luo Wushuang looked at the person next to him, and then placed his gaze on Nangong Xingchen on the stage, the two looked at each other, Nangong Xingchen smiled, like a spring breeze.

Soon the dance ended, compared to the dance brought by Chu Xianyu, Princess Xiyue's was more impactful and shocking, if it was really compared, Xingyue Kingdom's was even better, but this was in Nanli, and the emperor would naturally not be willing to be defeated.

I saw the emperor open his mouth and praise: "Princess Xiyue's dance is really eye-opening, naturally it is very good, but it lacks elegance, and there are many extraordinary things to make fun, in this way, I can't tell for a while, each has its own merits, you are all good, each has its own reward." ”

The emperor's words are very pertinent, so that people can't find fault, Princess Xiyue is unwilling to help, after all, this kind of thing can be big or small, there is no need to fight at this time.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Well, I wonder what else Princess Xiyue has in mind?" The Emperor asked.

"Next, I want to see the calligraphy and painting of your country."

"Oh, the princess is actually interested in this, okay, I don't know who is on the scene this time?" The emperor said with interest, and his gaze swept to the audience.

"The courtiers are willing to give it a try." I saw Tan Xiangxue get up and appear in everyone's sight. Tan Xiangxue calmly got up and left her seat, and at this time, there were already people in the audience who exchanged their heads and talked about it.

"That's Miss Xiangfu."

"What miss, she is now the fiancée of the second prince."

"She's so temperamental."

Tan Xiangxue naturally did this so that Nangong Lichuan could notice her, and believed that her talent would definitely let him see her excellence and find her different, so she thought about her and had the courage to go on stage.

Sure enough, Tan Xiangxue's beautiful appearance attracted the attention of the non-Gongzi brother and the appreciation of the ministers. Nangong Li Chuan also withdrew his gaze at Luo Wushuang when he knew that she was Tan Xiangxue, and turned to look at the stage.

Tan Xiangxue looked at the location of Nangong Lichuan, and saw that he was staring at herself at this time, and her heartbeat accelerated a little, like a deer spinning around, only she looked back at Nangong Lichuan with a slightly shy appearance.

"I wonder what the princess wants to see?"

"That's it." Princess Xiyue pointed to the maid standing not far away.

Everyone looked at the situation, their faces were slightly stiff, and they saw that the maid was kneeling down and panicking, this, even asked Miss Qianjin to draw a subordinate, this princess is afraid that she is confused? looked at the emperor on the stage suspiciously, waiting for him to stop him.

Tan Xiangxue's face also changed slightly, and she said: "Princess, how did this little girl get into your eyes, in my country, the young and the old are orderly, and the respect and inferiority are clear, so that it is not as good as painting the second prince to test my painting skills, how about it?"

"This proposal is very good, Princess Xiyue wants to see the portrait of the character anyway, and these two princes and Tan Xiangxue are also in line with etiquette." Qi Guifei Yuan said.

"Hmm. That's right. The emperor said generously.

Princess Xiyue naturally didn't dare to say anything, and it was boring to talk to herself.

Nangong Lichuan knew the emperor's thoughts and did not refute it, so he got up generously, stepped forward in front of Tan Xiangxue, and stood. Tan Xiangxue held back the joy of her mood and was calm.

"Let's get started."

Xuan paper and brushes were all prepared one by one, Tan Xiangxue took the pen and began to draw, and everyone saw her waving her hand bowl, with a bit of seriousness and quietness.

Half an hour has passed, Tan Xiangxue has stopped the pen in her hand, this is the first time she has painted a man or her fiancé, it can be said that this painting is of great significance.

The two guards came to the stage and turned Tan Xiangxue's painting to look at the emperor, and after looking at it, they turned back and held it up in front of everyone.

"Not bad."

"Okay, lifelike."

"Wow, that's amazing."

The audience praised endlessly, but Tan Xiangxue didn't think so, and looked at Nangong Lichuan with blazing eyes, hoping to see something in his eyes, but unfortunately not.

Nangong Li Chuan turned around and left expressionlessly, and got on the high platform seat, Tan Xiangxue's lost and injured appearance fell into the eyes of Qi Guifei, and she was more satisfied with Tan Xiangxue in her heart.

"Okay, there's a reward." The emperor was in a good mood and laughed heartily.

Princess Xiyue's face was slightly displeased, she originally wanted to see Nan Liguo's jokes, frustrate the limelight, and also gain some face for her country, but now she is unsatisfactory everywhere.

"Your Majesty." Tan Xiangxue's clear voice sounded, like a yellow cry.

"Good. Now that I've tried it, it's better for Princess Xiyue to sit down and taste the dim sum, the wine and tea, and the spring color of the courtyard, and it's not in vain. ”

"Hmm." Princess Xiyue was a lot quieter and sat in her seat.

She looked at the refreshments, looked around, several princes, as if she had found something, and said without surprise: "Why don't you see the princess of your country?" ”

"Princess, she is ill, so she didn't come to participate, but what is the princess looking for her?" The queen said dignifiedly.

"There's nothing wrong with this, it's just curious that the princess is not seen on such a big occasion? It's unexpected, there is no fate today, I believe I can always see you next time. ”

"It's natural to have a fate, Princess Lao bothered." The queen chuckled and said.

At this time, the banquet has come to an end, the courtesans on the stage are dancing, and the daughters of the major people in the audience are chatting about home, which looks very lively.

The emperor got up and prepared to leave, and the rest of the arrangements were made for the queen mother, and then left the courtyard.

As soon as the emperor sat down, the atmosphere became more lively, and the emperor went out of the courtyard and directly let people carry the dragon to the imperial dining room.

Luo Wushuang looked at Chen Yuxi, who was eating with relish, and felt funny, and suddenly found that the prince was looking at this side, and Luo Wushuang pushed Chen Yuxi, who was eating with his elbows.

Chen Yuxi looked up at Luo Wushuang in confusion.

"What's wrong?"

"Someone is looking at you?" Luo Wushuang said with a smile.

Chen Yuxi followed Luo Wushuang's gaze and saw Nangong Yueli looking at her with great interest. Looking at each other, Chen Yuxi's face was slightly red, and he hurriedly turned his head.

"Shy." Luo Wushuang laughed happily.
