Rebirth of the Princess Pearl

The capital city was bustling with activity because of Princess Hanxiang's arrival, and everyone in the palace was also talking about this magical princess.

On this day, everyone gathered together again. Little Swallow said excitedly: "Oh, we finally met Princess Hanxiang. She is so beautiful like a fairy! I have never smelled such a special fragrance on her body. And when she danced, the butterflies flew around her. It was so wonderful!"

Yongqi smiled and nodded, "Yes, she is indeed a unique princess, but I don't know if she is used to living in the capital."

Zhihua sighed softly and said, "After all, she came from such a far place like Huijiang. She must be a little sad to leave her hometown."

At this time, Ertai frowned and said in a low voice: "Actually, everyone doesn't know one thing! Princess Hanxiang has a childhood sweetheart in Huijiang!"

When everyone heard this, their eyes widened in surprise. Xiaoyanzi asked loudly, "What? Childhood sweethearts? Ertai, tell me what's going on!"

Ertai looked around and made sure no one was eavesdropping before he slowly said, "Her lover is called Meng Dan, a warrior from Huijiang. I heard that he grew up with Princess Hanxiang and they have a deep relationship!"

Nan'er blinked her eyes curiously and asked, "Then why was Princess Hanxiang sent to the capital? Doesn't she want to be with her lover?"

Ertai shook his head helplessly and said, "This is not something Princess Hanxiang can decide. She is the daughter of the Huijiang King Ali Hezhuo. She was offered to the emperor by Ali Hezhuo in order to seek the Qing Dynasty's blessing for Huijiang."

Dong Er said angrily: "This is too unfair! Princess Hanxiang doesn't want to come, why force her?"

Yong Qi also frowned and said, "It is indeed a bit cruel. Princess Hanxiang must feel bad. She has to be separated from her beloved and come to this strange capital."

Little Swallow clenched her fists and said, "Humph! If it were me, I wouldn't want to do that! This is too annoying!"

Zhihua said with some concern: "Princess Hanxiang is in this state now, her lover Meng Dan must be very worried. I wonder if he will find a way to come to the capital to find Princess Hanxiang."

Ertai nodded and said, "I've been thinking about this too. If Meng Dan really comes to the capital to look for Princess Hanxiang, it will be troublesome. After all, if the emperor knows about this, it will be a disaster!"

Everyone fell into deep thought, and the atmosphere was a little solemn for a moment.

A few days later, news came from the palace that the emperor would hold a banquet in the imperial garden and invited all princes, ministers and their families to attend. Of course, Princess Hanxiang would also attend.

When Xiaoyanzi heard this, she immediately became happy and said, "That's great! I can see Princess Hanxiang again. This time I must talk to her more. Maybe I can help her!"

Yongqi smiled and said, "Xiaoyanzi, please don't mess around. This is a banquet in the palace, and we have to follow the rules."

Xiaoyanzi pouted and said, "I know! I'm not a child, huh!"

Zhihua also said, "Yes, Xiaoyanzi, when we get there, let's enjoy Princess Hanxiang's dance and don't cause any trouble for everyone."

On the day of the banquet, everyone dressed up and entered the imperial garden of the palace.

The garden was already bustling with activity, with all kinds of delicious food displayed in dazzling array, and princes and ministers took their seats with their families.

Soon, Princess Hanxiang came slowly, surrounded by her maids. She was still as beautiful as ever, and the fragrance on her body seemed to be stronger, making people want to get closer.

After Princess Hanxiang took her seat, the emperor said with a smile: "Today's banquet is to let everyone appreciate Princess Hanxiang's dancing. Hanxiang, please dance for everyone."

Princess Hanxiang bowed slightly and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Princess Hanxiang stood up and walked to the center of the garden, dancing to the music. Her dancing was graceful and light, just as the legend said. A group of butterflies seemed to be summoned and flew around her, and everyone was fascinated by her.

Little Swallow couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow! Princess Hanxiang dances so well! The dance and the butterflies are so magical!"

Yongqi also nodded and praised: "Yes, it is indeed a rare beauty in the world."

Zhihua said softly: "Although Princess Hanxiang is in this palace, there always seems to be a trace of sadness in her eyes. Maybe she is missing her lover."

Nan'er whispered, "Mother, Princess Hanxiang is so pitiful. I really want to hug her."

Xiaoyanzi patted Nan'er's head and said, "Good boy Nan'er, when there's a chance, I'll go talk to Princess Hanxiang and see if I can help her."
