Chapter 553 A unique way to choose her husband (2)
“Since Princess Lou Ye is going to perform, it’s our honour! Since I don’t know what you like, how about this, everyone will take out their favorite item. After you finish your performance, you can take away any item that you like, as a gift, I’ll also send you some other gifts on top of that!”
The emperor’s intentions were so clear!
He meant that whoever the princess likes, just take away his item as a token of love!
The little princess is pretty, has a good personality, and she’s very favored in Lou Ye. Marrying her will only bring good!
So, when the servants walked in front of someone while holding a red silk, everyone took out their most precious item and placed it on the silk, and the eunuch would announce, for example “a piece of jade jewelry from…”.
The little princess stood there with a smile the whole time, as if she didn’t care, but she still paid attention to a few important people, especially when the servant walked in front of Gong Yimo, she took one more glance.
Gong Yimo was the only woman in the crowd except for the other concubines. If she accidentally picked their items, what if the emperor thought that there wasn’t one who she was interested in? So she had to avoid their items. Then, she saw Gong Yimo casually remove a hairpin from her hair and place it on the silk, she suddenly felt very upset!
How dare she look down on me?!
Right after Gong Yimo was Gong Jue, she looked over expectantly, and saw him place a dragon-shaped jade pendant in. Although it was just a quick glance, she still noticed that the jade pendant seemed of high quality, it was obviously very valuable!
The little princess lowered her gaze satisfactorily, she felt that Gong Jue is actually kind of interested in her.
Soon, everyone offered their most beloved item, and waited for her final choice, when the music started to play, the little princess danced to Lou Ye’s unique fast-paced dance!
When she danced, she looked rather lively! Her bright eyes and the slight blush on her cheeks made every single man present very excited! It would be such a good thing to be able to marry Princess Lou Ye!
Thinking about this, they all put on their best manners, hoping that she might fall for them!
After all, the emperor did not force the marriage, and even held such a dinner party, it was clear that he let the princess choose for herself, and they all had a chance!
Longcheng Tingxue twirled around among the dancers, she shined bright like the stars in the night sky, her red sleeves moved alongside her, and her dance moves were refreshing, which really won the men’s heart.
When she stopped, the applause still continued on!
Longcheng Tingxue panted softly, the emperor took the lead and praised her with a smile.
“Let’s talk about the gifts later, come, little princess, look at these treasures, is there one you like?”
As soon as the emperor said this, the servants hurriedly handed over the three trays of treasures. Longcheng Tingxue smiled with confidence. She didn’t care about the other eye-catching items, she went directly to the item that Gong Jue offered!
Everyone was nervous, and some even watched with their necks raised. The Emperor and the Empress looked at each other and smiled, because they all knew that as long as Princess Lou Ye picked an item, that means she had decided to marry him.
Although she shouldn’t be too obvious about it, so they placed all the items together, but they all knew that as long as the princess had someone in mind, she would know which item belonged to that person.
Who will she choose?
Gong Yimo watched with her hands propped under her chin, she was happy that the Emperor didn’t force the marriage and let the princess choose her husband this way, but now the situation is equally as dangerous. After all, Gong Jue is quite good-looking.
She turned around and realised that Gong Jue was calm, he didn’t seem to worry that she might choose him, Gong Yimo couldn’t help but feel that it was slightly strange.
“Whose item do you think she’ll choose?”
