The Royal Family's Orphan is on the Rise

Chapter 407: Shen Jiarou was forced to dance with a sword

Princess Daigula looked at Shen Jiarou and said, "I heard that Princess Dalin is very talented. How is she at dancing?"

Everyone looked at Shen Jiarou again. The old lady and the wife of Yong'an Marquis frowned. Why was this generation of Gula never ending?

Shen Jiarou smiled politely: "Princess, you want to watch the dance? That's fine. I'm a little cold, so dancing to warm me up is not bad."

Shen Jiarou calmly took off the hairpins, step-shaking pearl flowers and other accessories from her hair. She stood up and looked at Emperor Shun of Yuan.

"Father, I didn't know I would be performing a dance today, so I didn't prepare. I can only dance with the sword. I need to borrow a long sword from you. I hope you will allow me." Her soft and gentle voice was very pleasant to the ear. Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty waved his hand.

"Li Jiang, find a long sword for the princess."

Li Jiang quickly said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Everyone was stunned. The princess wanted to dance with a sword?

They had heard that the princess practiced martial arts on a daily basis, but they didn't know how well she danced with a sword.

Shen Jiarou thought to herself that it was a good thing that she was not wearing a shawl, otherwise she would have to take it off.

Li Jiang quickly found a long sword, and Shen Jiarou took it from the guard with a smile. The sword was a bit heavy, and she was careless and almost lost her grip.

Prince Rong, Prince Yu, the Tenth Prince and others were shocked, and Shen Jiarou chuckled.

"Sorry, I'm rude."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty glared at Li Jiang: Why don’t you find a lighter one for the princess?

Li Jiang felt like crying but had no tears. It was not easy to find something at this temporary moment.

Princess Daigula sat in her seat with a faint sneer on her face. Shen Jiarou glanced at her indifferently, then smiled.

"Keep playing the music." Without music, there is no soul.

Shen Jiarou slowly took out the sword body, then threw the sword shell directly to Zheng Shutong, who caught it steadily.

"I am ready to show my ugliness."

Under the gaze of everyone, Shen Jiarou first stretched out the sword forward, lightly lifted her right foot, leaned her whole body backward, and suddenly raised her right hand holding the sword, and the long sword stood upright. She suddenly stood up and spun around, then suddenly stopped and stretched out the sword.

The women who saw her thought she was so cool, beautiful and gentle, and the men all stared at her with their eyes wide open. Princess Yongkang really used the combination of strength and gentleness perfectly.

Master Fu smiled when he saw it, and took a sip of the teacup.

The princess's swordsmanship is getting better and better.

Madam Taifu was stunned: "I didn't expect the princess's swordsmanship to be so good."

It was a real eye-opener for her.

Fu Liyong and his four brothers were also pleasantly surprised. Their princess sister was so amazing.

Shen Jiarou, who was concentrating on sword dancing, suddenly had an idea and opened her mouth slightly.

"The lotus pond is all withered, and the west wind is gradually turning into the north wind.

The boxwood is stubborn and uniform, while the white birch is soft and sparse.

The cold frost on the door can wake up the bones, and the remaining light on the window makes it easy to read.

I made an appointment with Sanjiu to chant plum blossoms and snow, and also borrowed my own small stove.

The poem she recited was "Beginning of Winter" by Zi Jinshuang of the Song Dynasty.

Interpretation: Winter poems always have a warm feeling as long as there is a small stove. At the end of autumn, the cold wind howled. The cold frost in front of the door brought bone-chilling cold, but the cold could not repel the poet and his determination to read. The setting sun shining through the window was a good time to read. He further thought that if it was the coldest day of the year, he could light a small stove, play in the snow, appreciate plum blossoms, recite poems and paint. How warm and beautiful it would be!

She suddenly recited a poem, which amazed the scholars present, especially the civil servants.

After the dance ended, Shen Jiarou expressed her gratitude respectfully and gracefully.

"Father, I am sorry to show my ugliness."

Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty smiled heartily and turned the tables for his Dalin Dynasty one by one.

"Well, your combination of civil and military skills really makes father stunned."

Faced with the praise, Shen Jiarou gladly accepted it.

"Thank you for your praise, father." She raised her little hand holding the long sword. Zheng Shutong understood and immediately came over to take it and put it into the sword shell.

Shen Jiarou walked lightly towards her seat. After she sat down, the Third Princess whispered in her ear,

"Sister, you are amazing."

Shen Jiarou winked at her mischievously, looking so adorable that the Third Princess smiled gently.

"Mother, my sister is so funny."

After hearing this, Concubine De smiled.

After expending some energy, Shen Jiarou began to quietly eat cakes, drinks and cold dishes.

Seeing how happily she was eating, Prince Rong asked someone to bring the pastries and cold dishes in front of him over.

Shen Jiarou looked up at Prince Rong, gave him a coquettish smile, and bowed (left hand clasping right hand, left palm bent and clasped tightly around right fist, thumbs together and facing forward), showing the free and easy temperament of a woman of the world, which made Prince Rong smile dotingly.

"This girl."

Princess Mu Xue was amused by her and couldn't help but tease her in a low voice.

"Aunt Royal is really interesting."

Princess Rong laughed and echoed her daughter's words: "That's right."

With this sister-in-law coming to visit often, she felt life was much more interesting.

Seeing her eldest grandson giving pastries and cold dishes to the little girl, the empress dowager smiled indulgently and whispered instructions to Aunt Zhen behind her.

"Send the cakes and cold dishes I have to the princess as well."

Aunt Zhen bowed: "Yes, Queen Mother."

Shen Jiarou looked at the fully furnished dining table and smiled helplessly.

"Thank you, Grandmother."

The Queen Mother said lovingly, "Being able to eat is a blessing. You have just used up a lot of energy. Eat more."

Concubine Zhang smiled when she heard this: "My princess, it's not enough, but I have some too."

Princess Yongkang is really an interesting person. Now she won't target her for no reason.

Shen Jiarou smiled coquettishly: "Thank you for your kindness, Imperial Concubine. Yongkang is enough."

She is not an ox, so she can't eat enough.

After the palace banquet, Shen Jiarou's belly was bulging. Emperor Yuan Shun was worried about her and waited for her.

"Are you ok?"

Shen Jiarou smiled shyly: "Thank you for your concern, father. I am fine."

Seeing her blushing little face, Emperor Shun of Yuan Dynasty laughed.

"It's rare to see you blushing, so drive slowly."

"Yes, I will send you off respectfully, Father, the Emperor, and Mother, the Empress."

When she returned to Fanghua Palace, she wanted to lie down and die, but her Aunt Zhenhua did not allow it.

"Princess, you should get up and walk around to digest the food."

Shen Jiarou sighed. She would still listen to Aunt Zhenhua.

"I understand, aunt." Oh, this heavy love.

She walked back and forth in the main hall, and finally toured the entire Fanghua Palace.

Lying on the bed, she felt extremely happy.

"Princess, is your stomach okay?" In response to Ruan Qingling's concern, Ruan Qingling smiled gently.

"I'm fine. I'm sleepy and I'm going to sleep." The next second, she began to snore softly. Ruan Qingling looked at her helplessly and gave her an indulgent smile. She tucked the quilt in for her and stood up.

Xie Youmu had already blown out several oil lamps, and An Yiyin and Yu Hang'er came over and let down the bed curtains.

Shen Jiarou lay quietly on the bed and fell asleep with a faint smile on her lips.

On sunny days, the small kitchen in Fanghua Palace began to get busy because their princess had to get up.

"What are you doing for the princess today?"

"How about some vegetable buns?"

“Let’s steam a sweet potato.”

"Make some eight-treasure porridge."
