The Divine Martial Stars

The Southern Princess and Western Prince’s goal of coming are to choose a husband and a wife. It’s true that tonight’s banquet was to welcome them, but also for them to meet the Eastern palace officials, sons, and daughters. Giving them the chance to choose the right partner, as to avoid trouble with the two said country.

The four countries have no special rules when it comes to intermarriage. The Southern Emperor and Western Emperor sent their princess and prince, for the sake of marriage, but they must have another reason.

The East Emperor had this in mind. However, even though he should put the two under special requirements. He agreed for Nannuo Yao and Ji Fengyan to enter the east. But, he didn’t make any special imperial marriage plan for them.

As everyone knows, the Eastern Country was the most prosperous and strong out of the four countries. Although their battle against the North was devastating, the victor in war hasn’t been decided yet. They haven’t reached the point of needing to marry the Southern Princess and Western Prince.

The Southern Emperor also didn’t say that he wants his daughter, Nannuo Yao to marry the eastern crown prince. He only said in the letter that Nannuo Yao likes the East culture. She was pampered by him, so when her daughter said she wanted to find a husband in the east, he couldn’t stop her.

As for Ji Fengyu, although he always hinted that he wanted to marry an imperial princess of the royal family, the east emperor only said to him that he can choose a noble lady to be his wife, and then he will grant her a title of a princess.

The weight of a real princess and the fake princess was naturally different. Ji Fengyu had a plan in mind. He wanted to marry an imperial princess of the east to add a chip for him to get the throne. So, when he heard the east emperor’s statement, he was quite disappointed, but he didn’t reveal it on his face.

As for Nannuo Yao?

Aside from herself, only a few people know that her goal was to marry Xiao Tianyao. So naturally, only a few know why she treated Lin Chujiu like a needle in the eyes.

*

After three rounds of wine, the song and dance performances in the imperial also came to an end. And the most important play tonight will finally be staged!

In order to solve the marriage of Nannuo Yao and Ji Fengyu as soon as possible, the east emperor specially arranged the young boys and girls to go to the garden to see the lanterns and get along, but…

Nannuo Yao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly stood up and said: “Huangshang, I apologize for my rudeness earlier. In order to express my sincere apology, I would like to personally offer my silver plate dance to your highness.”

This was something they didn’t agree before, so the emperor was startled a bit. However, in the end, he smiled and said: “Well, go on.” Nannuo Yao wants to perform, he shouldn’t stop her.

When the Empress heard this, she also said with a smile: “This empress heard that the Southern silver plate dance is truly a wonder. Today, this empress will finally be able to see it with my own eyes.”

“Your Highness is over praising us, the east has a lot of talents, and you can see beauties everywhere. When I was in the south, I heard that the young ladies in the east were all knowledgeable and well-versed in chess, calligraphy, and painting. And Miss Lan Xi was praised as the world’s most talented woman. If I will have a chance to exchange knowledge with the Eastern ladies, I will have no regret in my life.” Nannuo Yao was not stupid, she knew that if she shows off her talent alone, she will only become a joke. But, if everyone shows their talent, it will be different.

Today, she wants to clearly see the talent of eastern ladies. Although she was arrogant and doesn’t know how high is the sky, she was strong. The ladies in the Eastern Country was simply nothing to her.

As for Miss Lan Xi, who suddenly come out from her mouth. She was the beauty that was directly rejected by Xiao Tianyao. And who’s talent was only branded as a straw in his eyes. After this beauty was rejected by Xiao Tianyao, she accepted a marriage proposal of some famous son from the Central Empire.

Nannuo Yao released words to compare talents with the Misses of the East. If the Emperor refuse her, he will be branded as a coward. So even though he knew that this was only Nannuo Yao’s madness, he just smiled and nodded his head.

When the few young ladies heard Nannuo Yao’s words, they were all angry and stared at Nannuo Yao badly.

Nannuo Yao didn’t pay any care about the discontent in their eyes. The Emperor gave her permission, so she was very proud and happy: “Thank you, Huangshang. This princess will go and prepare.”

Nannuo Yao turned and left. But before leaving, she didn’t forget to give Lin Chujiu a provocative look. Lin Chujiu slightly frowned her eyebrows, her heart vaguely understood Nannuoyao’s plan.

If Nannuo Yao wants to show off her talent, she has no say about it. She has no intention to play a slapping face game, it will be great if Nannuo Yao will not provoke her.

Nannuo Yao was obviously prepared. In a short time, she changed her clothes and went to back. Her dress didn’t expose an arm or leg but was wrapped very tightly to her body.

Nannuo Yao’s clothes were obviously specially made, even if it didn’t expose any part of her body, it revealed her graceful figure.

On the stage, the dancers of the South were already ready.

The silver plate dance, the name implies that people will be holding a silver plate and the dancer will dance on top of it.

The dancer can only borrow the silver plate on top of these people head as a platform. If the silver plate was not properly held, the dancer will fall. The difficulty of this dance is imaginable.

Usually, in order to maintain stability, the people holding the silver plate were strong men, but Nannuo Yao’s silver plate dance was different. The people holding the silver plate were all graceful dancers.

The seven seemingly thin women, each holding up a basin-sized silver plate, stood on the stage with a pretty appearance, making people worried that they would miss.

Seeing this scene, many people were deeply in thought and worried. Princess Nannuo Yao dared to provoke their talented young ladies, they mustn’t perform badly. If they lost to her, it will be shameful.

Nannuo Yao seems to be aware of what everyone was thinking, so she arrogantly tilted her head up high, as her eyes fell towards Lin Chujiu’s table. But, who knows whether she was looking at Lin Chujiu or Xiao Tianyao.

“Boom!”

When the drums sounded, Nannuo Yao took back her line of sight. With the help of a maidservant, she walked forward to the stage and jump gently on the silver plate. The bell on her ankle was issuing a string of melodious sound.

Her footsteps were very light, without any help, Nannuo Yao beautifully rotating on the silver plates. Her footing on the silver plate coincides with the beating sound of drums.

*Boom, boom, boom* The drums sounded, again and again, sometimes the sounds were fast and slow, and sometimes it was heavy and light, while Nannuo Yao also dances fast and slow, then rotate and jumped… …

The seven dancers also dance back and forth with the silver plates. Their dance was full of power and beauty, making them all looking so dazzling.

A little girl can dance like this without difficulty. Lin Chujiu had to say that Nannuo Yao can really jump up so well.

Lin Chujiu was looking forward and appreciating the dance when suddenly, she heard Xiao Tianyao’s voice: “This dance was originally a sacrificial dance of the Shengyuan Dynasty, but later on was changed to silver plate dance of the South. The Southern Princess has a martial art skill, that’s why she could stand steadily on the silver plate, you don’t need to take her seriously.”

“Huh?” Lin Chujiu turned her head and looked at Xiao Tianyao with a puzzled look.

Is Xiao Tianyao giving an explanation?

Is it necessary?

Xiao Tianyao saw the look in Lin Chujiu’s face and thought that she was worried about what will happen next, so he held her hand and said: “Don’t be afraid, benwang is here.” Of course, he also saw Nannuo Yao’s provocative eyes, it’s just he didn’t put her in his eyes.

The Southern Emperor doesn’t exist in his eyes, so why would he take this Southern princess seriously!
