The prime minister married a fake wife

After Liu Lingyan returned to the mansion, he immediately went to Yang Xixue, took him back to the room, and told him: "August [-]th is the emperor's birthday, and the queen will hold a family banquet for the emperor. The emperor invited us and my wife to attend, and the emperor I heard that you are outstanding at dancing, and I hope you can perform on that day."

Yang Xixue was happy for him and said: "The emperor even invited the master to the family banquet. You have a really good relationship. No, you said that you want to go with the concubine, and you also want to perform and dance, that's fine!"

Liu Lingyan looked at him strangely and said, "Why can't it work?"

Yang Xixue knew that she had said something wrong, and immediately said: "The concubine said that it is a great honor to be able to attend the emperor's family banquet, and to be able to perform in front of the emperor and the queen, but I have not danced for many years, and my dancing skills are very unfamiliar. , performing in front of the emperor will only insult the Holy Eye, can I ask the master to refuse on your behalf?" I thought very anxiously: "My sister who can dance is my sister, what should I do? And I have to perform in front of the emperor , will definitely be discovered, please help me reject the emperor, please."

Liu Lingyan said: "Don't worry, you have a foundation in dancing, even if you are unfamiliar with it, as long as you practice hard, you can perform well, and you still have more than two months to practice, and you will definitely be able to return to your previous dancing skills. I believe in you."

Yang Xixue thought: "You don't have to believe me, just help me reject it!" With a deflated mouth, she said, "Can you really refuse?"

Liu Lingyan said: "It's an honor for you to dance for the emperor's birthday. Why did you refuse? Are you worried that you can't dance well? Don't worry, although I haven't seen you dance with my own eyes, I have heard that you are very good at dancing. No, there won’t be so many people who will praise you, so don’t worry, and I’ve already promised the emperor, if I go back now, it will be regarded as deceiving the emperor, which is a serious crime.”

Yang Xixue heard what he said so seriously, so she could only think of another way, and said to him a little disappointed: "Okay, I will do my best."

Seeing him so concerned, Liu Lingyan asked him, "Are you really unfamiliar? Do you need me to hire a dance teacher?"

Yang Xixue said in a low mood: "Yes, but I want to ask the teacher who taught me the dance. I just let the concubine arrange it myself, so I don't need to worry about it."

Liu Lingyan knew that he was organized, so he believed him and said, "Okay, you practice hard."

Yang Xixue said: "Yes."

After Liu Lingyan left, Haiqing asked worriedly, "Master, what should I do? The one who can dance is the young lady, and you can't do it at all."

Yang Xixue frowned and said: "I know, I'm also thinking of a way." He thought for a while, and said to Haiqing: "Haiqing, let's go back to Yang's residence tomorrow, and you can help me inform my father."

Hai Qing who was standing beside him said, "Yes, the young master has thought of a way?"

Yang Xixue said: "I want to do it, but it is very risky. I will talk about it in detail when I return home tomorrow."

On the second day, Yang Xixue went back to visit her father on the grounds that Father Yang was feeling unwell. When he arrived at Yang's mansion, he asked his servant where Father Yang was, and then went to the study to find Father Yang according to what the servant said. After entering, Father Yang came over and asked him, "What's the matter? You're coming back suddenly, did something happen?"

Yang Xixue told the emperor about inviting him and Liu Lingyan to attend the birthday celebration banquet and to perform in front of the emperor. Father Yang's legs went limp after hearing this, and Yang Xixue immediately helped him sit down. Father Yang said bitterly: " how so?"

Yang Xixue also had a bad face and said, "There is nothing we can do now to investigate the cause, father, is there no news about my sister?"

Father Yang frowned, lowered his head and shook his head, "I have sent more people to look for it, but there is still nothing."

Yang Xixue sighed: "Really, there is still no rest, so there is no other way but to take a risk."

Father Yang looked up at him and said, "Do you have a solution?"

Yang Xixue said seriously: "Yes, but it's very risky. I wanted to see if there was any news about my sister. Of course it would be the best, but no, there is no other way. I have to go." He put his plan Speak up.

Father Yang frowned and said, "Is this possible? Will it not be discovered?"

Yang Xixue shook her head and said, "I don't know, I can only give it a try."

Father Yang said, "What can I do?"

Yang Xixue said: "Help me find the teacher who used to teach my sister dance. I need her to teach me. I don't need to tell her anything. Just say that Xiling wants to ask her to teach dance. After you find her, bring her to Liu's mansion for me." That’s fine, and help me prepare a set of dancing clothes and ribbons.”

Father Yang said, "Is there anything else?"

Yang Xixue said: "Not now, if there is, I will ask Haiqing to help me pass the message."

Father Yang nodded and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Yang Xixue shook her head and said, "Father, I have no choice but to find Xiling as soon as possible. Let her perform is the best way. If you hear about her, you must tell me immediately."

Father Yang said, "Well, father knows."

Seeing that the matter was finished, Yang Xixue said to Father Yang, "The son is going back first."

Yang's father stopped him and said, "Wait, why don't you stay a little longer? Be with father."

Yang Xixue thought: "It's rare to be able to go home and relax. It's strange why I want to go back so quickly." She quickly shook her head and said happily: "Father, my son and you haven't practiced martial arts for several months. , I don’t have much time to practice in Liufu, so you can practice with me today.”

Father Yang said, "Okay! Let's go to the training ground."

The group of them went to the training ground, Yang Xixue was about to get a weapon, but saw that she was still wearing women's clothes, and said: "Wait, father, let me change back to my clothes first, it's so inconvenient."

Father Yang nodded.

After Yang Xixue changed her clothes, she came to the training ground again and said, "I kept my father waiting for a long time."

Father Yang said: "Yes." He and Yang Xixue each picked up a sword and began to exchange ideas.

Father Yang said happily: "I haven't practiced for several months, and I haven't regressed."

Yang Xixue said confidently: "Of course, I'm a father's son, so of course I can't be so useless."

Father Yang swung his sword and said, "Don't pretend to be a good boy, how is your life in Liu Mansion?"

Yang Xixue blocked it with her sword, and then swung her sword and said, "Fortunately, except that I can't be myself, everything else is fine. They are all very good to me. You don't have to worry about me too much. I think Xiling will be fine when she comes back." I like that family, and I will be a good wife." When he said this, he felt a little depressed, but he didn't care, and continued to discuss with his father.

After their father and son had finished their discussion, Father Yang said, "I'll go back after dinner tonight."

Yang Xixue's father said that he thought of the master during the dinner. He thought, "I wonder if the master has had a good dinner by himself. I really want to go back and have a look, but it's rare to go home, and I don't want to disappoint my father." So he said: " good."

Father Yang asked Haiqing to instruct the kitchen to cook more meals for the young master. He and Yang Xixue went to the inner hall. Father Yang sat down and asked him, "Why have you been absent-minded since just now? I didn't respond to talking to you."

Yang Xixue also sat down and said, "No."

Father Yang asked again: "Are you still worried about dancing in front of the emperor?"

Yang Xixue still said: "No."

Father Yang saw that he said no, but he was still absent-minded. He felt that he had guessed right, and comforted him: "Father knows that this is a very difficult task. You are worried, but Father believes in you, and you will definitely be able to do it. It's useless to think about it, it will only make yourself more worried."

Seeing that he was so worried about her, Yang Xixue couldn't continue to say no, so she replied: "My son knows, father, don't worry too much."

Father Yang said with concern: "After you have dinner, you should go back to rest early, lest you think too much."

Yang Xixue smiled and said, "Well, my son will."

After Yang Xixue had dinner in Yang's Mansion, she obediently listened to Father Yang's words, and went back to Liu's Mansion with Hai Qing.
