The apple and the arrow fell to the ground and made a sound.
It was when the girls exhaled and realized that they had been holding their breath nervously.
Zhu Ruodie collapsed down on the floor out of control, without caring that her behavior was not elegant at all.
At the moment the arrow shot right at her, she was really scared that she might be shot in the head and she might have died.
“Haha…” Baili Jue stood up and laughed happily, clapping his hands, and said, “great show! Great show! Your archery is truly excellent! You amazed me, Miss Xia! I am very happy!”
The other girls also forced a smile as the emperor laughed, and clapped their hands along.
But it was totally different from what they thought in mind.
“Thank you, your majesty.” Xia Liang bowed to Baili Jue.
Then she approached Zhu Ruodie with the bow in her hand, said with a smile,
“Miss Zhu, how do you think of my archery? Am I excellent? If you don’t like it, we can do it again. And we can try to put a grape on your head. What do you say?”
Zhu Ruodie was so angry that her blood was about to spout when she heard what Xia Liang said and her smile.
She struggled back on feet and her pure white dress was covered with dirt. She looked terrible.
“No need. Your performance is magnificent. You are no inferior to any man. You have my respect!” Zhu Ruodie said through her teeth, looking at Xia Liang.
Was there anything more humiliating than giving compliments to the one who had just tortured myself? No!
Zhu Ruodie wished she could strangle Xia Liang to death.
“What a pity.” Xia Liang stop smiling and said seriously “I am looking forward to working with you again.”
Baili Jue was so surprised by Xia Liang’s performance and what she said. Apart from fooling around people, Xia Liang even got the hang of sarcasm.
She was not the simple and straightforward girl any more. Now she couldn’t be cannier.
Did she learn all of these from me? Well. She was a quick-learner. I am very happy about it.
Baili Jue chuckled and said to the empress dowager, “mother, I have to go back to deal with work now.”
Then he said to Xia liang, “you are Xia Liang, right? Come with me. I need to talk to you.”
All the other girls looked at Xia Liang in surprise. The emperor wants to see her privately. What does it mean?
“I'm afraid that's not appropriate, emperor. Mis Xia is a lady. If you talk to her alone, it would be bad for her reputation.” The empress dowager said sarcastically.
If she let go of Xia Liang, she would have no chance to torture her. Of course, she would stop them.
“You are overthinking.” Baili Jue said, “besides, I will take full responsibility for her reputation if anything happens.”
Since he said that, he was basically admitting that he was going to marry Xia Liang as his concubine.
He was the emperor. Now that he would take Xia Liang away, none of them was allowed to stop him except that they envied Xia Liang.
The other girls stared at Xia Liang and got jealous because she was so lucky to be picked by the emperor even after she did such an absurd thing.
Xia Liang put down the bow and stood behind Baili Jue, meaning that she was determined to leave with him. She didn’t even care the empress dowager’s long face.
“Let’s go.” Baili Jue took her away quickly although he wished he could hold her in his arms.
Since the emperor had left and with Xia Liang, the other girls had no mood to enjoy the party. Even the empress dowager was too mad to stay. After she made a quick ending to the banquet, she dismissed everyone.
On the other side, Baili Jue wished he could take Xia Liang to his bedroom and do something on it with her.
But for the sake of Xia Liang’s reputation, Baili Jue calmed himself down and rushed to the royal study.
Defu, following the emperor behind, finally understood who the emperor had cared about when he saw the emperor’s happy and hasty stride and the girl next to him.
She was beautiful but not as beautiful as Beauty Yao.
But she was definitely special when she showed her archery. Now he understood what unique type of girl the emperor liked.
“Well, you can go now. Do not get close unless on my command.” Baili Jue said seriously as he rushed into the study.
Defu felt shamed for the emperor. Look how eager he was!
They just stepped into the study and the emperor ordered them to go away and not get close. It sounded like he was about to do something bad.
The horny Baili Jue jumped directly at Xia Liang right after Defu and others left.
However, Xia Liang avoided his hug.
Xia Liang frowned and said, “don’t hug me. You will ruin my dress.”
Baili had to stop because she was well-dressed today. He asked her smilingly, “what do you dress up like this today? I suppose you don’t like it.”
“To look pretty.” Xia Liang said seriously.
“Haha..” Baili Jue laughed at her words and asked, “are you doing this for me?”
“You said that I am ugly.” Xia Liang said, “I am doing this not to disgrace you.”
“Ahem…” Baili Jue coughed a bit, approached her, held her hands and said awkwardly, “I was joking. You are not ugly at all! You are the most beautiful woman in my eyes! And you are even more beautiful today.”
Xia Liang smiled at her words and said, “you should let me go. My mother will be worried.”
“Give me a kiss.” Baili Jue said, pointing to his lips, “I won’t let you go without a kiss.”
“No.” Xia Liang refused, “I got lipsticks on my lips.”
“I don’t mind.”
“But I do.”
Baili Jue promised that he would never ask Xia Liang to wear makeups. It was killing her not to kiss or hug her.
“I will send guards to escort you home and you will receive the decree that I will marry you as my queen. Xia Liang, you are going to marry me.” Baili Jue said smilingly, “wonderful!”
“Mm.” Xia Liang responded and said smilingly too, “wonderful!”
The apple and the arrow fell to the ground and made a sound.
