Chapter 60 How many surprises he didn't know

"Why hasn't Miss Xie come up yet?"

"Could it be that he realized he couldn't win and fled in the middle of the battle?"

"If you don't have the ability, why do you have to do this? You must be crazy just to show off!"

As Xie Zhuoning was nowhere to be seen, the people present began to talk about him.

Emperor Zhaowen glanced at the empress, who immediately ordered the palace maids to "go and see what's going on."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the musician start playing.

The melodious Buddhist chanting, solemn and dignified, instantly attracted everyone's attention.

I saw a puff of white smoke rising in the middle of the stage. In the hazy smoke, Xie Zhuoning appeared on the stage in a colorful dress.

Spin and jump.

As graceful as a startled bird, as gentle as a swimming dragon.

If "Hundred Battles Dance" is a military review on the battlefield and a bloody battle song.

Then she would be like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world to cleanse the battlefield after the war and to save the suffering people of the world.

All the surging blood that was aroused by "Hundred Battles Dance" just now slowly calmed down and became long and soft.

Just when everyone thought it was about to end, the sound of the pipa suddenly became louder.

Xie Zhuoning waved the ribbon in his hand, and he suddenly rose into the air and flew away!

She danced in the air, carrying the clouds and the moon.

The starry sky seemed to be forming a curtain for her!

The music faded away.

Xie Zhuoning also landed slowly, ending the performance.

However, no one present said a word, still immersed in the shock just now, unable to recover for a long time.

Xiao Jinxuan clenched his fists on his knees under the table, then unclenched them. His heart was filled with complicated emotions that were hard to describe.

This girl only knew how to lie and act like a rogue in front of him. This was the first time he saw another side of her.

It is so stunning and brilliant that one can't take their eyes off it.

Yes, this is what the rumored Miss Xie should look like.

Then who is the one acting coquettishly and playing tricks in front of him?

He could hardly tell which one was the real Xie Zhuoning.

Xiao Bicheng was also amazed when he looked at Xie Zhuoning on the stage.

Last time, she spoke witty words in the court and left the Yongwang party speechless. This time, she competed with the Western Chu State dance with her dance at the night banquet.

As the Crown Princess, how many surprises does he not know?

"Good!" Ye Wuque was the first to applaud, his eyes full of admiration, "Daye is indeed full of talent!"

As soon as he started, everyone started to applaud.

Emperor Zhaowen also nodded in satisfaction, "The Xie family girl performed well, appreciate it!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Zhuoning bowed his head in thanks and breathed a sigh of relief.

Looks like I've passed.

She secretly made a gesture to Song Yuqiu, who was in charge of setting off the fireworks, and Xia Ju, who was pulling her up with a rope, before she stepped down from the stage, changed her clothes and returned to the banquet.

As soon as she took her seat, she saw Xie Wanyin looking at her with gloomy eyes, like the dark and rotten mud in a swamp.

"Big sister is really amazing!"

The voice is harsh and weird.

I thought I could embarrass her and get her reprimanded by the emperor.

No one expected that she could dance such an amazing dance that made everyone gasp in amazement.

What kind of luck did she have?

Xie Zhuoning was not polite and directly responded with a cold face, "Second sister, you are flattering me. If you focus on the right path every day and avoid doing crooked things, you can be as good as me."

She will not let go of today's matter so easily.

"Hmph!" Xie Wanyin snorted coldly and turned his head away.

By now, everyone was a little tipsy.

Emperor Zhaowen looked at Ye Wuque and said, "I heard that the Crown Prince of Chu has not yet married. I wonder what kind of woman he likes?"

Hearing this, Princess Yunheng's heart instantly tightened.

She looked at Ye Wuque with complicated eyes, biting her lips tightly, waiting for his answer.

Ye Wuque's eyes fell on Xie Zhuoning and he said slowly, "Of course... good-looking, a bit wild, um... yeah, cunning, likes to cheat people, like a little fox, slippery, that's the best."

Everyone: “???”

No wonder the Crown Prince of Western Chu has not yet married, it turns out it’s because his taste is too strange!

He actually likes women who are cunning and like to cheat others. Where can he find such a woman?

Emperor Zhaowen, who had originally only asked out of courtesy, was suddenly at a loss for words.

He glanced at his daughter, who seemed to have nothing to do with what Ye Wuque said.

"Does Crown Prince Chu already have someone he likes?"

The description was so clear, it was obvious that he already had a candidate in mind.

Emperor Zhaowen tried to test the waters.

"That's right." Ye Wuque was quite honest and admitted it directly, "Besides, she is from Daye."

Xie Zhuoning and Xiao Jinxuan's hearts skipped a beat at the same time.

This guy, is he planning to do something stupid in front of so many people?

When things got out of hand, he, a prince of Chu, would just walk away.

But her family is in Daye and her roots are in Daye. How should she deal with the future?

Emperor Zhaowen smiled faintly, "I wonder which daughter of a rich family would be so lucky to be favored by the Crown Prince of Chu?"

If he were from Daye, this matter would be easy to handle.

He conferred her the title of princess and sent her to marry into the Western Chu Kingdom.

It can not only solve the diplomatic issues between the two countries, but also save Yunheng from having to marry far away.

Ye Wuque opened his moist red lips and spoke word by word in a deliberately protracted tone, "That person is... Daye Saint Bai Yingxue!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience burst into laughter.

Xiao Bicheng who was beside him was the first to lose his composure, "What? How is that possible? Don't you like Xie..."

He stopped talking halfway through, his face looking grim as if someone had died in his family.

Xie Zhuoning originally thought that the guy was going to harm her, but when she heard Bai Yingxue, she was stunned for a moment before she reacted.

When I looked over, I saw the guy silently raised his lips - remember to agree to my conditions.

He actually gave up the Crown Prince and Prince Yong and chose to cooperate with her?

Emperor Zhaowen was obviously a little surprised, "The person that Crown Prince Chu wants to marry is Bai Yingxue?"

"That's right." Ye Wuque nodded.

Hearing his words, Princess Yunheng felt relieved but also a little unconvinced.

He doesn't like me, and I don't like him either!

Emperor Zhaowen thought for a moment and was about to give an answer.

Xiao Bicheng could no longer hold back and said, "Father, whoever gets the Saint Girl will get the world. You must not marry the Saint Girl to Western Chu!"

If it were someone else, Emperor Zhaowen might have agreed without hesitation.

But Bai Yingxue's identity was indeed somewhat special, which forced him to think twice.

Ye Wuque lazily leaned on the table and sneered, "Look at what Prince Ye said. I am the legitimate heir of Chu State, and the throne should be passed to me. Could it be that if I don't marry the Saint Girl, the world of Chu will no longer belong to me?"

"It is ridiculous to use a woman to determine the fate of a country!"

His words made Xiao Bicheng's face turn pale and then blue.

After holding it in for a long time, he finally managed to utter, "Prince Chu didn't come here for the legend of the Saint, so why does he have to marry the Saint?"

Ye Wuque said as a matter of course: "Of course it's because I like her!"

"Prince Chu has never even met the Saint, so why would he like her?"

"How do you know I haven't seen it? What if I've seen it in a dream?"

Xiao Bicheng: "..."

He had never seen such a shameless person!

“It’s Prince Ye…” Ye Wuque stroked his sleeves and glanced over lightly.

"Every word you say is in defense of Saint Bai Yingxue. Could it be that you want to marry her too?"
