Following that, he started to play the drum to pass flowers, starting from Venerable Chen, the silk flowers were passed around, and very quickly, the drum music stopped once again. Unexpectedly, this time, it just happened to reach Yang Guang.
Everyone looked at Yang Guang, everyone knew that Yang Guang was good at fighting, but they were not very good at musical instruments, songs and dances, and other common things, so they didn't know what kind of show he would perform, and I looked at him in anticipation. Honestly speaking, I have never met Yang Guang, although I have often heard about Yang Guang's deeds from Lijun, but towards this future husband of mine, my heart was still filled with curiosity.
Yang Guang looked at the crowd, and revealed a wry smile. He stood up and spoke to the Emperor Queen:
"Imperial Father, Mother, your son is not proficient in these things. Can you not make any decisions this time?"
"How can that be?" If you don't do anything, then it will not be fun. " Everyone began to discuss.
The emperor also waved his hand, looked at Yang Guang in amusement and said:
"You can't. No one is allowed to go back on what I've said."
"That's right, Guang'er. If you don't do a show today, I'm afraid everyone will disobey." The empress added.
Yang Guang's face was full of bitterness and hatred. He looked at everyone, walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and said:
"Alright, if we were to talk about poetry, poetry, poetry, and dancing, we would be unable to do so." Fine, if we were to talk about poetry, poetry, and dancing, we would be unable to do it.
"Naturally." Everyone said.
"Then let's perform a set of sword technique to aid in the fun of the banquet." Yang Guang stood up and cupped his fists towards everyone. When I looked up at him, I met his deep eyes. My heart was pounding.
Very quickly, someone took out a sword, Yang Guang held his sword and laughed, his agile body suddenly jumped up, the long sword drew a ray of cold light in the air, on this summer night, it caused people's hearts to feel cold.
His figure was like a swimming dragon that was rapidly spinning in the air. However, he was neither hasty nor impatient, and his sword danced as smooth as flowing clouds and flowing water. As the sword gleams flashed faster and faster, his figure also became faster and faster. The silver-white sword tip drew flower after flower as it spun in the air, circling up and down in the hall.
I stared fixedly at Yang Guang, my eyes tracking his figure. Looking at his imposing manner, my heart surged like a tide. He — was the irreplaceable hero in my heart.
Suddenly, Yang Guang's figure turned, and in the blink of an eye, he leaped in front of the empress. He pointed his sword straight at the crown prince Yang Yong's throat.
Ahh!" Everyone shouted in terror. I was also sweating profusely. The Crown Prince was so scared that his face turned pale and his frightened eyes widened. He looked like he was about to faint.
"Guang'er — —" The Queen got up in shock and stretched out a hand, pointing at Yang Guang with a face full of shock.
Yang Guang retracted his body, and the sword came to a sudden stop. The sword tip was less than half an inch away from the crown prince's neck, so he was able to grasp the timing perfectly.
Everyone stopped drinking, even the one who played the music for Yang Guang's sword was stunned, his finger was hovering in the air, unable to touch the musical instrument, the scene was frozen in place. Countless eyes were staring at the sword in Yang Guang's hand, not knowing what he was thinking about, the emperor was also nervously staring at Yang Guang, his expression was furious.
Yang Guang was not the least bit nervous, he gently pulled on his sword and drew back his sword, and with a "kacha" sound, Yang Guang broke the sword into two, it was actually an imitation of an extremely lifelike wooden sword.
"Don't be afraid, royal brother. It's just a wooden sword, haha." Yang Guang looked at Yang Yong who was covered in cold sweat, and could not help but laugh. His tone was filled with disdain and contempt.
"Guang'er, don't mess around!" The emperor scolded with a straight face.
Yang Guang immediately knelt down and replied:
"Father, please calm your anger. This son is only joking with royal brother."
"This joke of yours is too excessive. If you are not careful and hurt someone, what should we do?" The empress scolded him, but even so, she couldn't help feeling dissatisfied with the crown prince's pale face. "The crown prince is too frightened, quickly go and apologize!"
Yang Guang replied indifferently, with a smirk at the corner of his mouth. He walked in front of the crown prince and poured a cup of wine for him, and said with a smile:
"Crown Prince, my brother drank a few more cups today. I don't know how to weigh the consequences, and I've offended you. Please be magnanimous and forgive me. Eating this cup of wine will calm your nerves."
The crown prince still hadn't recovered from his shock and wanted to flare up, but the emperor's presence was obstructed in the end. He could only endure it, his hands trembling as he accepted the wine cup.
The Emperor Queen frowned when she saw this and was slightly displeased.
Upon seeing this, the princess consort hurriedly used a silk cloth to wipe the sweat off the crown prince's forehead, covering it up for Yang Yong.
"Look at the heat today. I told you to wear less, it must be so thick." But I vaguely felt that there was a trace of hatred on the Crown Princess's face, but I didn't know if it was because she hated Yang Guang's arrogance, or because she hated the Crown Prince to the bone.
It was really a false alarm, which really made me sweat for Yang Guang. Now that the situation was calm, I found that my forehead was dripping cold sweat, so I reached out to Chen Zhong behind me to ask for a silk handkerchief, and gently called out twice. But she didn't move.
Fog rippled in her eyes and her cheeks were as red as spring peach. Looking at her expression, my heart suddenly jolted and an inexplicable sour feeling surged in my heart. When the dog saw me turn my head, he hurriedly pushed Chen, and she let out a cry of astonishment and asked:
"What orders does the princess have?"
I forcefully suppressed the displeasure in my heart and coldly said:
"Bring the handkerchief."
The sword dance had calmed down, and everyone continued to beat the drum and spread the flowers. I felt a little bored, but fortunately, the silk flowers didn't reach me because I was no longer in the mood to perform.
I just watched the other people perform one program after another with boredom, but my mind wasn't here. I stayed at the end of the banquet, but my mood still couldn't relax. I didn't pay any more attention to Chen Zhong until I returned.
