As for Chu Qingchuan, she wore light green garments, had fair skin and beautiful facial features. Her golden hair was raised with two light green pear blossom hair accessories. She looked both refreshing and beautiful.
Han Moze scanned the two of them, then said, “Welcome, Prince of Donghua and the Fifth Princess. Having come from so far away, please do take a seat,” he said with an enigmatic voice that shook everyone in the hall.
“Thank you Emperor of Beiming,” replied Chu Yitian and Chu Qingchuan.
Chu Qingchuan’s face flushed even more, as she glanced at Han Moze, who wore black garments with golden embroidery. His long and narrow eyes looked serene. He had sharp eyebrows, a tall nose bridge, and thin pursed lips which made his entire face seem carefully chiselled by the heavens. His boldness was also sculpted by the heavens! A woman loved by someone like him must be the happiest woman on earth.
After the Fifth Princess and the Prince of Donghua took their seats, Nangong Ba stood up and looked over at Han Moze. Then, with a clear and pleasant voice, he slowly said, “Greetings your majesty, from the lord of Baiyun City, Nangong Ba”
Han Moze instinctively looked over at Nangong Ba. After he caught a good look at the person beside Nangong Ba, his pitch-dark pupils glowed. Shuang’Er, why are you here?
“Lord of Baiyun City, please be seated,” he said, whilst trying to contain the emotions in his voice.
“Thank you, your majesty,” replied Nangong Ba, as he took his seat.
Liu Rushuang saw Han Moze’s dark eyes look at her with confusion, and smiled coldly. What a truly tyrannical man!
Just then, Liu Rushuang thought about their two previous kisses and couldn’t help but blush.
Han Moze clenched his fists and figured that he would ask for clarification after the royal banquet. However, seeing Liu Rushuang and Nangong Ba sitting so closely, his face had turned a little glum.
Any man can forget ever thinking about touching his woman!
Han Moze raised his wine cup and swept a cold look at everyone in the hall.
“I thank everyone here for coming to congratulate me. I raise my cup to you,” he said with a profound voice.
“Thank you, your majesty.” The high-ranking officials and noblemen seated in the hall all raised their glasses and drank to the Emperor in one gulp.
Liu Rushuang raised her wine cup and elegantly poured Nangong Ba’s cup full. She pulled a smile and couldn’t help but look at Han Moze, who was all high and mighty.
Han Moze finished his wine and also looked over towards Liu Rushuang. Their eyes met.
Liu Rushuang thought about what happened and her heart couldn’t help but seize up.
Nothing good happens every time she crosses paths with this wicked tyrant!
Ouyang Yaoyi looked over at Han Moze’s ice cold face with a quivering gaze and smiled enchantingly. “Emperor of Beiming, I choreographed a new dance and would like to perform it once for you, your majesty. I wonder if that is possible?” She said with a soft voice.
Han Moze thought about the last time Ouyang Yaoyi danced and scorful smile. He lowered his eyes and glanced at Liu Rushuang, then said with a clear voice, “My Empress’ dance skills are out of this world. How about she come out and perform just once?”
Liu Rushuang’s whole body tensed up and looked up at Han Moze’s frosty gaze. Did he want to expose her identity in front of everyone?
All the high-ranking officals of Beiming found themselves suddenly deep in conversation. Where was this Empress of Beiming?
Ouyang Yaoyi glared at Liu Rushuang with a violent glint in her eyes. She really regretted not killing her back then, as she wouldn’t have the chance to step forward and steal her thunder right now.
Chu Yitian squinted. From what the Emperor of Beiming said, it sounded like the princess from this political marriage should be in the hall… but where was she exactly?
Chu Yitian instinctively scanned the hall for that woman, then looked up and forced a smile. “Emperor of Beiming, if your Empress is here, then it would be great for her to perform. However, where is she?”
