Chapter 1173 The Emperor's Reward
"Aiqing and your wife are indeed deeply in love. Are you still close to each other at this time? I'm not trying to embarrass your wife." The emperor joked, but he was actually still making fun of Su Wangqin and his wife.
Su Wangqin would not be stupid enough to fight against the emperor, so he took a half step back from Gu Chunzhu, and replied respectfully, "Wei Chen is just worried that Zhuojing will not speak and collide with the emperor, and also asks the emperor to allow Weichen to accompany Zhuojing, and also Let her feel free to answer your words."
The emperor agreed to this small request, and the emperor then asked Gu Chunzhu softly, "Does this performance have a name?"
"Back to the emperor, the court lady said she was the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara, because her inspiration came from this, and the whole performance showed the influence of the Thousand-Armed Avalokitesvara on the world." Gu Chunzhu said respectfully.
"The name is good, but how do you think about the costumes for the performance? Why do you want to look like this?" The emperor's words also asked the most concerned question for others. The body is indecent.
"I think Buddhism came from Xizhu after all, so I designed this dress considering the clothing style of people in the Western Regions."
People from the Western Regions also came to pay tribute to the Min Dynasty, and they had danced to the emperor before.
Xuanyuan Lie listened to the people around him expressing some understanding of Gu Chunzhu's dance clothes, and his face turned black. He folded his hands tightly, and suddenly stood up, "Father, that's not what you said, the general's wife's arrangement is still indecent. Even if Buddhism came from outside, this dance is still the dance of the Min Dynasty. We should abide by the folk customs of the Min Dynasty.”
After hearing this, many people started talking again, pointing at the beauties standing behind Gu Chunzhu and making irresponsible remarks. Although he couldn't hear what they said, Gu Chunzhu could still clearly feel the malice coming from all directions.
But now the situation is out of control, Gu Chunzhu herself has no room to speak at all, she can only pray to the emperor to be on her side.
The emperor glanced at Xuanyuan Lie, waved his hand and said with a smile, "This is such a big deal, can't our great country even tolerate such a performance? What's more, this dance does not have the slightest bit of kitsch. I think this dance is feasible. Besides, there were also murals of flying sky in ancient times, and there are also dancers in such cool costumes."
"And this dance is showing the thousand-handed Avalokitesvara's journey of purifying all sentient beings, and it is earnestly praying for the Min Chao, so don't mention those."
This is all thanks to the strong support of the emperor, Xuanyuan Lie had no choice but to give up and continue to criticize Gu Chunzhu. He panted and sat down, and the staff around him rushed forward and said, "The failure of this mission is because Gu Chunzhu found out before leaving. She didn't leave the beauty who was scheduled to assassinate in the performance team."
Under the multiple blows, Xuanyuan smashed the wine glass directly to the ground with a trembling hand, attracting the attention of the people around him, including the emperor. Xuanyuan Lie could only say with a dry smile, "I'm sorry, but I accidentally slipped my hand."
The emperor retracted his eyes and continued to talk to Gu Chunzhu about what reward she wanted.
Of course, Gu Chunzhu wanted to retreat to advance, showing flattery and then refused, "Being able to perform a dance for the emperor is the best reward for the courtier's wife, so the emperor does not need to give any reward."
"How can this be possible, then I will directly give you a hundred taels of gold, ten pieces of brocade and silk, and some jewelry." The emperor generously gave Gu Chunzhu a lot of rewards.
Gu Chunzhu pretended to be unbearable and stepped back a few words in panic, "Your Majesty, the minister's wife really can't afford so many rewards. In fact, it's not the minister's wife's credit for such a successful performance. The dedication of these dancers and musicians."
"I won't favor one over the other, and I will also reward you heavily." The emperor casually gave a lot of money as a reward.
Gu Chunzhu felt that he could not act too much. He hesitated for a while and then agreed. Fu Li said, "The court lady thanked the emperor for the award on behalf of the musicians and dancers. In addition, the court lady made another unkind request."
"Might as well speak bluntly." The emperor nodded with a little curiosity in his eyes.
"The courtiers want to ask the emperor for a request for the dancers, hoping that the emperor can make a good family for them. The emperor, many women who came out to be dancers have experienced a lot of hardships, even if they are innocent, they will not be allowed in the end. A good death, so the ministers hope that the emperor can help these hard-working women." Gu Chunzhu bowed deeply and pleaded sincerely.
"I'm sure, this matter has been arranged by the Prince's Guild."
The prince who was called hurriedly stood up and saluted to the emperor, "The servant leads the order."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En." Gu Chunzhu took the lead, and the musicians and dancers followed and bowed to the emperor before leaving.
Xuanyuan looked at Gu Chunzhu with a lot of rewards from the emperor, and then watched her go away, almost gnashing his white teeth.
Gu Chunzhu! Su Wangqin! You wait for me, you won't be mad for long!
Over there, Su Wangqin and his wife returned to the yard where they started with the excited musicians and beauties. Gu Chunzhu looked at the beauties who were clenching each other's hands so excited that they couldn't even speak, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "I just started. I have fulfilled the promises one by one, and I will help if I can help. As for what you will do in the future, it depends on how you go."
Most of the beauties who follow Xuanyuan Lie are for sufficient benefit. Now Gu Chunzhu has not only helped them achieve greater interests, but has also considered so much for the rest of their lives. They immediately abandoned Xuanyuan Lie and surrendered to Gu Chunzhu sincerely. .
Some of them dared to say it and then said to Gu Chunzhu, "I will keep it in the future and listen to you honestly."
Gu Chunzhu quickly waved his hand, "No no no, I don't have that much money to support you, so you should just listen to the prince's words in the future."
"We will definitely obey the arrangements of the prince, but your words are equally important, Madam." The man who could speak then replied.
Gu Chunzhu didn't want to continue entanglement. After firmly shaking his head and waving his hand to reject them, he quickly dragged Su Wangqin to escape from here and hurried back to the banquet scene.
Su Wangqin looked at Gu Chunzhu in a hurry with a funny look, and reminded her jokingly, "Don't you still want them to perform in a vulgar and elegant show, and then increase the number of guests? You just agreed that it would not be good."
"Yeah, I completely forgot about this. But most of the time, I can't perform it. This dance is dedicated to the emperor. How can it be performed in public again? It's too risky. Immediately regained her spirits, she resolutely decided that she must reject the beauty.
