Dugu Jingyao is reborn as Li Chu's beloved
Chapter 135: An unexpected surprise - a marriage
However, it was not only Cui Caiping who was in a bad mood. Because of Cui Caiping's outstanding performance, those girls from noble families who wanted to play the piano felt embarrassed to perform and could only grit their teeth and give up!
Then there were those who came out to perform dances, such as Su Qing. She had practiced the "Rainbow Skirt and Feathered Robe Dance" specially in order to perform for the emperor. As expected, she won a lot of applause after the dance. However, the person she was paying attention to, Li Chu, was not interested and did not care.
Fortunately, because she was the best dancer, she was rewarded by the emperor and given a batch of tribute materials to make dance costumes.
There were a few people performing dances later, but since the dances were relatively ordinary, everyone just watched for fun.
Fortunately, today was the emperor's birthday, and he was in a good mood, so he gave everyone a reward. However, most of the rewards were either jewelry or silver...
However, Cui Caiping discovered that the woman Li Chu had been looking at, who should be the princess, did not perform any performance. She probably was not prepared, so she suddenly decided to cause trouble for them.
In fact, they were not prepared, so they huddled aside to minimize their presence. Unfortunately, because they were sitting close to the front, and Li Chu looked over here from time to time, they were naturally noticed.
Cui Caiping said, "It seems that the two princesses who came from afar haven't performed yet! Is it possible that they are not prepared?"
Yang Guifei was about to stop them. Li Chu, thinking they were unprepared, wanted to intercede for them, but Dugu Jingyao raised her eyes and looked at Cui Caiping. Others couldn't see it, but Cui Caiping met Dugu Jingyao's gaze and felt a chill. Cui Caiping didn't say anything more.
However, Dugu Jingyao would not indulge Cui Caiping. In addition, she had been immersed in the harem for many years in her previous life, so she was naturally familiar with some of the harem's routines.
She then stood up calmly and said, "Your Majesty, I am not as skilled in music, chess, calligraphy, or painting as the other young ladies. However, I have been practicing martial arts with my father since childhood, so today I will perform a sword dance for Your Majesty to celebrate your birthday!"
The emperor did not refute, but Cui Caiping spoke again: "Princess Yi'an, you are not allowed to carry weapons in front of the emperor. I'm afraid sword dancing is not allowed!"
If it wasn't for the emperor's birthday banquet, Liu Jingyue would have been unable to resist and tore Cui Caiping's mouth apart!
Dugu Jingyao simply smiled, and then said to the leader: "Your Majesty, it's alright for me to use something else instead of the sword."
The emperor was not opposed to it and said, "Oh? Sword dance without a sword, I have never seen it before. Then let Jingyao show it to me!"
Dugu Xin was really worried. He had never brought his two daughters with him when he attended the event before, and he had completely forgotten about the performance. Fortunately, his Yao'er was calm and didn't make a fool of herself.
Dugu Jingyao took the order and looked around, and finally found something suitable to replace the sword. There was a vase with peach blossoms on each person's table.
Dugu Jingyao took one from the bottle and began to perform. The whole sword show was soft yet strong, and peach blossoms kept floating in the air with her dance. After Dugu Jingyao jumped up with her lightness skills, coupled with her outfit today, she looked like a peach blossom fairy. Everyone was stunned by the beauty of the scene.
Li Chu was so fascinated by it that even the emperor and the crown prince could not help but exclaim, "It's so beautiful!"
Some people also said: "It is beautiful, but it is a bit monotonous when one person is bored."
Upon hearing this, Li Chu stood up, picked up the peach branch on the table in front of him, jumped forward to join Dugu Jingyao's sword dance, and danced with Dugu Jingyao, each move was just right.
This really shocked everyone, especially the fact that the two of them worked together very harmoniously, as if they had rehearsed it in advance, but in fact, both of them acted on impulse.
Some people couldn't help but sigh: "Your Highnesses are a perfect match!"
Someone else said: "They have such a good understanding, they are a perfect match!"
When the dance ended, everyone was stunned for a long time. When the emperor came back to his senses, he kept clapping and saying "good", and the whole palace erupted in thunderous applause.
Cui Caiping was so angry that she was about to die. She thought she was the most outstanding and wanted to embarrass the princess, but she didn't expect that even her own charm was taken away, and the prince even helped her, as if they had known each other for a long time!
The emperor was very pleased: "Is this the program you two specially prepared before?"
Both of them said, "No."
The emperor was stunned at first, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha, it's really not easy for them to be so in sync without any prior rehearsal!"
After saying this, the two of them bowed their heads and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise!"
The Emperor, celebrating his birthday today, drank a few more glasses of wine in joy, and then suddenly had an idea: "Haha, don't be so modest. You two are a perfect match, a match made in heaven. So, I will be a good person and marry Jingyao to Chu'er as his princess."
Everyone was stunned by the emperor's sudden move. After a long pause, the emperor, seeing the two younger ones remaining silent, turned to their elders, "Crown Prince, Crown Princess, and Lord Dugu, what do you think?"
The prince never expected that he would get a surprise today even though he had mentioned it before. He originally thought that he would have to wait two days before talking to his father about this matter, but he didn't expect that the marriage would be granted today?
Liu Jingyue's heart can't calm down for a long time! Not to mention the close distance CP, now the emperor personally granted the marriage, which is equivalent to official certification! My CP is done!
Li Ruo was also excited. Wouldn't Sister Jingyao be able to stay in Chang'an in the future? Wouldn't she be able to teach me martial arts?
Seeing that these people were motionless, Li Ruo whispered, "Royal brother, why are you still standing there? Thank you quickly!"
After hearing Li Ruo's words, they came to their senses and knelt down together, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"
