Chapter 195 The Emperor's Order
Next, the woman was seen touching the ground with her toes, her skirt gradually spreading out, and her feet hitting the golden millet lichen, making a sound like breaking jade.
She spun around, then bent over, the bells around her waist swaying with her dance moves...
The dance is the Hu Xuan dance, which shows the woman's beautiful and graceful figure.
This dance immediately attracted everyone's attention, especially the men present.
After the dance, Princess Huayang was the first to say, "Compared to the real Hu Xuan dance, it's still not quite up to par."
After she finished speaking, she saw that the woman next to her looked calm, and asked again: "You should understand too, right?"
Chen Shuyao didn't know if she understood it. She had seen the Hu Xuan dance in her hometown before. The Hu girls danced with fierceness and a sense of freedom.
She even followed along and learned for a while!
Chen Shuyao naturally wouldn't say these things out loud. Most Han women thought that dancing was an improper means of flattery used in brothels and was inconsistent with the behavior of ladies from noble families.
So she smiled and shook her head, then heard Princess Huayang beside her say, "It doesn't matter if it doesn't happen. I just saw that Prince Xiao is obviously not attracted to her."
No?
Chen Shuyao also looked at Xiao Mo on the male guest side with some curiosity.
They were both sitting in the front row. From her angle, she could only see the man's neat profile. He was leaning back in the chair with his eyelids half-closed, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Chen Shuyao was about to look away when she saw the other person suddenly turn his head to look at her.
She froze for a moment, then pretended nothing had happened and spoke to Princess Huayang beside her.
Xiao Mo was originally sitting there bored, but suddenly he caught his little wife stealing glances at him. He raised his eyebrows slightly, and the expression on his face became much more complicated.
After the woman finished dancing, the first person she noticed was the prince sitting below her. Seeing that he seemed to be smiling, she felt a little proud for a moment.
Today at the lakeside, she intentionally dropped the oar into the water, and her clothes were splashed wet, but the man simply ignored her and walked away.
The Crown Prince’s wife is indeed beautiful, but a wife is still a wife after all, how can she be as colorful as those outside?
In addition to Xiao Mo, the woman's second concern was the little emperor at the top. The person who arranged her to come said that at least one of the two men must be captured.
As for others, the woman could clearly feel their obsessed gazes, but it was of no use.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the little emperor at the top ask, "What's your name? And which palace are you from?"
"I am your humble servant Liu Lingzhen. My father is the newly appointed Governor Liu Qichuan." The woman said loudly.
Zhu Hongyuan smiled and then praised, "You danced well! It's amazing that you have such a heart. I have orders to reward you with a pair of jade ruyi, two pieces of Shu brocade and two pieces of Yun brocade, and a quantity of gold and jade."
The woman was delighted when she heard this. The little emperor glanced at her and continued, "You will accompany me in Qingliang Palace tonight."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened in shock.
The first thought in everyone’s mind was: The little emperor has been a chaste man until now, how could he suddenly become wise?
Haven’t you always used age as an excuse to shirk responsibility before?
Even Princess Huayang exclaimed, "What's wrong with the Emperor? This is not like him."
Chen Shuyao thought of her father Liu Qichuan. It seemed that Liu Lingzhen was probably Liu Qingwan's half-sister.
In the following time, several more women came up to perform their talents, some of whom were more outstanding than Liu Lingzhen. In the end, they all received rewards, but unlike the Liu girl, they did not hear the words of the attendants.
But those present did not see this as a romantic affair of dancing before the emperor. They were wondering how high the Liu family girl could climb and whether she would be made queen.
This is the first woman that the emperor has personally approved of. Her future will definitely not be easy.
Especially when you think about the fact that the emperor just promoted Liu Qichuan from the position of general of Ningxia to the position of governor, it is quite terrifying to think about it.
What exactly is the emperor planning?
Currently, the safety of Dayan Dynasty basically depends on the Xiao family. The fact that the emperor values Liu Qichuan so much seems to be an attempt to create an enemy for the Xiao family.
But the Liu and Xiao families are relatives. Isn’t the emperor afraid that the two sides will join forces by doing this?
Because of Zhu Hongyuan's sudden decision, all kinds of doubts were planted in everyone's minds.
When Chen Shuyao came out of Qingliang Palace, she saw Xiao Mo standing in front of the water curtain outside the palace with his hands behind his back.
When she walked over, he turned around as if he had eyes on the back.
Chen Shuyao called out "Young Master", and thinking of what had just happened in the palace, she couldn't help but look at the other person's expression seriously.
Xiao Mo's face was calm. When he saw her looking at him, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Chen Shuyao shook her head. Even if she had something to ask, it was not the place to ask, so she walked forward first.
The man followed her and caught up with her in just a few steps.
At first, there were other people traveling with them, and Chen Shuyao couldn't help but exchange a few words with those she knew.
But after a while, everyone in the palace scattered throughout the Yunxiu Villa, leaving only the couple.
The surroundings gradually became quiet, the shadows of the trees under the wind lamp swayed, and Shen Shuyao took a few quick steps to catch up with the man beside her.
She heard a soft laugh from the other party, and then she offered her arm.
Chen Shuyao pulled his sleeve and the two of them walked back to their residence.
After washing up and lying on the bed, Shen Shuyao asked, "Is the woman surnamed Liu who danced today Liu Qingwan's sister?"
Xiao Mo raised his eyebrows and smiled. Without saying yes or no, he reached out to undress her.
Chen Shuyao was still worried and asked again, "What does the emperor mean by this? Doesn't he know that Madam Lingyi of Chunfeng Tower is Liu Lingzhen's sister?"
Xiao Mo simply kissed her lips and said, "Let's talk later!"
He seemed a little impatient, and soon the only contact between the two was physical contact.
Chen Shuyao was at a loss for words at this point, and could only cling to the body and float up and down.
But this person seems to be asking for more.
When she acted coquettishly and played tricks on him, the man would coax her softly and call her "Yao'er".
In this half-hearted way, she was coaxed into losing her virginity again.
Originally, when they were in the mansion, Wuming, Wuying and other masters would go back to Mingzhe Hall to rest after they fell asleep. If two people had sex, they would automatically stay away.
Now that they have come to Yunxiu Villa, there is no way to avoid it.
Hearing the indescribable noises coming from the second floor, Wuming automatically stood a little further away.
But when he looked at the little maid named Qiaowei again, his face suddenly turned red.
Seeing that she was still standing in the corridor, he said angrily, "You! Can't you stand further away?"
Qiao Wei was inexplicably yelled at, and her cheeks turned red when she thought of the meaning behind the black-faced guard's words.
She spoke as if she deliberately wanted to hear it.
She is a servant, is this a choice?
The maids in other mansions have to help their masters wash themselves in the room!
The girl knew that they were embarrassed, so she didn't call the maids in when the prince was around, which was already a special favor.
However, after Qiao Wei listened to Wuming's words and stood further away, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart: The girl's voice sounded like she was in pain, but the prince was doing this every day, and the girl didn't really ignore him. So, is the girl in pain or happy?
