Chapter 261 Chu Yue is playing tricks
Early in the morning, Lu Donghai, the director of the Imperial Observatory, came to see the emperor with a happy face.
"Your Majesty, I observed the sky last night and saw the Purple Star moving eastward. I calculated with my fingers that the day the dragon appears, there will be good weather, good harvests, and prosperity for the country. It will be a blessing for the Great Chu!"
After listening to this, Emperor Qingyuan was in a very good mood.
"I have also calculated that there is a little dragon playing in the water today. People who have a connection with water can bring blessings to Your Majesty!"
Emperor Qingyuan understood that his good fortune was related to people who had a connection with water.
He kept it in mind silently.
......
At the birthday banquet of Emperor Qingyuan, all the royal relatives, civil and military officials were present.
Emperor Qingyuan was in a good mood. He watched the dancers dancing while looking at the gifts sent by his children and ministers.
What made him most satisfied was the elixir of immortality that Chu Yue brought back from Tianwu Mountain.
It is said that this elixir can prolong one's life.
Chu Li looked at the pill and fell into deep thought. In her previous life, her four masters did not allow her to touch the elixir of immortality.
Because that pill contains mercury, which is not good for the body.
It seems that the four elders of Tianwu Mountain were not her masters in her previous life.
Otherwise, why would he give Chu Yue that kind of thing.
Fortunately, it was just one pill and it wouldn’t kill my scumbag dad in a short time.
Chu Yue glanced at the gift sent by Chu Li with contempt. It was simply mediocre.
In comparison, the emperor's eyes lit up when he saw the elixir of immortality she gave him.
Luo Changhe said that taking too much of this kind of pill would be bad for the body, so he threw it away.
Since it was a magic medicine made by Luo Changhe, there was no harm in taking a little. She secretly picked it up to make her father happy.
As expected, my father had a strong desire for immortality.
The four venerables of Tianwu Mountain were indeed powerful. Her father treated the unwanted things they threw away as treasures.
Emperor Qingyuan received the treasure sent by Chu Yue and took this opportunity to show off his daughter.
"Chu Yue, you went to Tianwu Mountain to learn the mysterious arts. Can you tell me if there is anything special about today?"
Chu Yue had already prepared to show off the mysterious arts she had learned.
She stood up and said, "Father, today is your birthday. I observed the sky last night and saw the Purple Star moving eastward. On the day when the dragon appears, there will be good weather, abundant harvests, and prosperity for the country."
Emperor Qingyuan looked at the director of the Imperial Observatory and said, "Look, Yue'er is exactly the same as you said. In time, Yue'er will catch up with you!"
Lu Donghai smiled and said, "It is a blessing for your majesty that the Great Chu has Princess Chu Yue!"
Chu Yue was delighted by the admiring gazes of everyone.
See, her efforts and hard work were not in vain.
Chu Li was sipping wine while thinking: She also looked at the celestial phenomena last night, and she calculated that the person related to water tonight would be her father's benefactor.
You will definitely be liked by my father.
I don’t know if Chu Yue has figured it out.
After the dinner, fireworks were set off on the island in the middle of the lake, and everyone went to the lakeside to enjoy the beautiful fireworks.
Ye Hanting stood not far from Chu Li and looked at her eyes, which seemed to be filled with stars at the moment when the fireworks fell.
The fireworks exploded, illuminating her face. She was so beautiful.
It’s so beautiful that even fireworks pale in comparison.
Pei Ye was also staring at Chu Li. The amazement at that moment made his heart tremble.
neat!
He seemed to see Chu Chu when she was a child.
Mu Feng looked at Chu Li's slender figure and perfect profile. How could a man look so handsome?
Chu Yue had received praise from her father today and was in a very good mood. However, when she saw Ye Hanting staring at Chu Li, her face darkened.
She actually lost to her fifth brother Chu Li in appearance!
She suddenly realized that Pei Ye beside her was also looking at Chu Li. This madman Pei Ye must be still thinking about how to deal with Chu Li.
She moved away from Pei Ye. This madman was moody and even dared to play tricks on her when he was crazy. It was better not to provoke him.
Emperor Qingyuan stood on a high platform, looking at the gorgeous fireworks blooming on the small island in the middle of the water and enjoying the congratulations of his ministers.
Chu Li stood on the shore, the wind was blowing and it was a little chilly.
Suddenly, she felt someone walking behind her. The footsteps were very light and she immediately became alert.
"Fifth brother, the shore is slippery, be careful." When she heard the voice behind her, the man had already reached out and pushed her out.
Chu Li's eyes darkened. She could keep herself steady and not fall into the water.
However, when she thought of the divination she had done today, she immediately changed her mind.
She didn't resist and fell directly into the water.
"Fifth brother!" Chu Yue shouted in horror, and everyone looked over.
The person closest to him saw Chu Li fall into the water and immediately jumped into the water to save him.
Everyone's eyes were on Chu Li and Mu Feng who jumped into the water to save people.
"Fifth brother slipped into the water!" Chu Yue explained to the people around her, "Maybe I came to greet him and scared him."
She wanted everyone to know that Chu Li was extremely timid and easily frightened. How could he be the calm and steady crown prince who was so easily frightened?
Mu Feng pulled Chu Li out of the water. He held Chu Li and felt Chu Li's body trembling.
Chu Li was standing in the cold water when a hand suddenly reached out from the shore. Chu Li looked up and saw Ye Hanting with a frown on his face, pulling her ashore.
Ye Hanting quickly wrapped the cloak around Chu Li.
Mr. Chu Limingbai was afraid that someone would find out that she was a girl.
Chu Yue pretended to be concerned and asked, "Fifth brother, are you okay?"
Chu Li looked at her straight and did not answer.
"What's going on?" Emperor Qingyuan, who was watching the fireworks, heard the noisy sound, immediately stood up and took a few steps forward.
With a crack, the old tree behind him broke and fell heavily.
Emperor Qingyuan looked back in shock and broke out in a cold sweat. If he had been sitting there just now, he would probably have been hit by the tree trunk as thick as his calf.
Lu Donghai trotted over and asked, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Emperor Qingyuan waved his hand, "It's okay, what happened over there?"
"Your Majesty, the prince has fallen into the water." Lu Donghai thought of the hexagram.
"Your Majesty, fortunately the prince's fall into the water attracted your attention, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!"
Emperor Qingyuan suddenly remembered what Lu Donghai said, that today there was a little dragon playing in the water, and people who had a connection with water would bring him good luck.
The little dragon playing in the water, doesn’t that refer to Chu Li?
He escaped danger today thanks to Chu Li falling into the water.
Emperor Qingyuan immediately took Lu Donghai to see Chu Li.
"Li'er, are you okay?" This was the first time that Emperor Qingyuan showed such concern for Chu Li.
"Father, I'm fine."
Lu Donghai explained: "Thanks to your falling into the water attracting His Majesty's attention, the broken tree did not hurt His Majesty!"
After Emperor Qingyuan confirmed that Chu Li was his noble lady, he immediately warned: "Lord Ye, take the prince back to the East Palace as soon as possible. Don't let him catch a cold. Let Du Nanzhou go over to take his pulse and boil medicine. Make sure the prince is safe and sound."
Chu Yue gritted her teeth secretly, Chu Li was so lucky.
Her father actually cared about him so much. She had never seen her father care so much about someone.
