(One hundred and nine) Hu Xuan is pitiful
After Yuan Wanyou sat down, Yue Shuyi and Shu Meiren would play in turn. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Yuan Shufei's head is too big, and many concubines are a little worried about how to mix with themselves in the back so that they won't make a fool of themselves, but fortunately, Yuan Wanyou is a concubine, and there is no shame in Yue Yue.
But Yue Shuyi, who came in second, was not so lucky. Although Shuyi is a four-grade person, she has the title of His Majesty's personal seal, and it is almost the treatment of the fourth product, plus Her Majesty has always favored Yue Shuyi, and Yue Shuyi's last Mid-Autumn Festival was to surprise everyone with a dance on a boat, and won the title of "Moon Fairy" Yue Shuyi. And this time, what kind of art will she dedicate to surprise His Majesty without offending the queen?
Today's Yue Shuyi is still her iconic white dress and white dress, but because it is the queen's birthday, the white dress and white dress on weekdays can be said to imitate Wei Jin. In case someone makes a fuss, Yue Shuyi Yu Xi tied a dark gold wide belt on the white skirt this time, the waist was tightly tied, and the belt was wrapped around the waist and then hung behind her, mixing with the loose flower skirt of the snow yarn, showing more and more slenderness of the waist and attractive curves. And the white dress looked carefully under the candle flame, it was more like a little bit of broken gold, it was not an ordinary plain white skirt, Yue Shuyi pulled a long silk embroidered goldfish shawl, and stood on the main hall with a smile, which was even more charming, and people couldn't take their eyes off it.
"It's really pretty." Song Mier held her cheeks and looked at Yue Shuyi, "There is a fairy aura all over her body." β
"Mi'er thinks it's good, too?" Shen Zhan looked at Yue Shuyi carefully, and turned his head to agree with Song Mier's words, "Zitong doesn't taste it?" β
"What do I eat? The beauties in this palace are in a variety of shapes, like flowers, just to be appreciated, but Yue Shuyi is so full of fairy energy, only His Majesty can eat it, I can't," Song Mier waved his hand, glanced back at Shen Zhan with a smile, and said vague and ambiguous words, "I still prefer Shu Meiren who will appear later, rejoice and rejoice, just hearing the name will please me, and I will be happy when I see her." β
Shen Zhan's heart was relaxed and tightened, but tonight's mood was very inexplicable, Shen Zhan himself was used to it, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it, only raised his eyebrows and looked at Song Mi'er, "How did I hear that Shu Meiren was one of the beauties who came to Mi'er Palace with Sun Xuan a few days ago to complain and provoke?" Why, Mi'er punished Sun Xuan and punished a few noble Jieyu, and she was extra tolerant when she came to this Shu Meiren, and there seems to be a big problem here! Could it be that Shu Meiren is really so good? Even the moon Shuyi in front of you can't get into your eyes, but that Shu Meiren is particularly pleasing to you? Why didn't I find out before, Mi'er, that you still have this side? β
Shen Zhan laughed, but he still didn't notice that Yue Shuyi Yuxi, who he had been favored since the Mid-Autumn Festival, could be compared with a little beauty in front of Song Mier, and he could also be used to joke and ridicule.
Song Mier will not find fault with his unconscious action: what he likes but he doesn't like, does he still have to help him talk about it? Song Mi'er just picked up his peach blossom eyes and smiled again, "Your Majesty didn't find a lot of concubines, in the past, you were just the concubine's brother Zhan, of course the concubine would not show you these blatant performances." β
"Oh? What does Mi'er mean that now that I am not only your brother Zhan, but also your love brother, you will show me more? Then I'll go back to the dormitory in the evening, and I'll catch you and take a good look at itΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Shen Zhan deliberately lowered his voice, and only said ambiguously in a voice that even Song Mier and the palace people around him couldn't hear, and his tone was full of interest and exploration.
Talking about it, why did you deviate from this! Song Mier is still not as good as Shen Zhan, who has read countless people since he ascended the throne, and is already half a veteran of the love field, Shen Zhan said that Song Mier's ears were hot, and a shy pink quickly floated on his face, and the pink spread to the bottom of Song Mier's peach blossom eyes, Song Mier couldn't speak for a long time, so he had to stare at Shen Zhan without lethality, and even more lined with those peach blossom eyes that were intoxicating, a face was so beautiful that Shen Zhan smiled and received this glare, The beautiful and touching face in front of him and the noble and sometimes cunning and agile person of Tsinghua at this time and the little face with baby fat in his mind, who opened his mouth all day long and called himself "Brother Zhan", wanted to eat like this and eat like that, and the image of a beautiful lady gradually overlapped, becoming clearer and clearer, and a wave of incomprehensible emotions of "my daughter has just grown up" and "my queen is so good-looking" also shocked Shen Zhan for a long time and couldn't make any moves.
The emperor and the empress didn't know what they were talking about, they talked and laughed, and in the end, the emperor just looked at the empress whose face turned to the side and didn't speak. The concubines below looked like there were 10,000 ants crawling again, and they couldn't wait to become the eunuch of An Jin next to Shen Zhan and listen to what the emperor and queen said.
Yue Shuyi, who was standing below, was particularly uncomfortable.
Her eyes darkened, she bit her lip, and once again blessed her body, her voice was clear, "Your Majesty, Niangniang, do you want to pass on the flowers first?" β
Shen Zhan was startled and came back to his senses first.
"Yes, cough, what I mean is that Yue Shuyi will beat the drum and pass the flowers to determine the candidates for the next round of talents."
Song Mier also reacted, "Well, Yue Shuyi turned her back first and allowed her to beat the drum." β
Yue Shuyi Yu Xi turned her back and covered her eyes with her sleeves, and the butterfly bones on both sides of her shoulders couldn't be covered under the spring shirt, as if the butterfly was about to spread its wings.
Because of her nervousness, Yun Cong only beat the drum more than a dozen times, Yue Shuyi shouted to stop, and the concubines on both sides were in a commotion, Yue Shuyi opened her eyes, and the next round of flowers was coincidentally Lan Guiji and Qin Guifei, who had just attracted everyone's attention. One is the Lan Guiji, who hardly appears in everyone's field of vision, is very self-cultivation, tranquil and gentle, and the other is the new Qin Guifei, who is quite loved by the Queen Mother and the Queen, this group is actually more beautiful than Yue Shuyi and Shu Meiren. Having said that, Shu Meiren and Yue Shuyi are not on the same level, what is there to see.
confirmed the concubines for the next round of talent shows, and Yue Shuyi is also going to start her performance.
Song Mier is still looking forward to what Yue Shuyi can bring, her figure, at first glance, is a person who has been practicing dance for a long time, Song Mier has also worked hard to practice dancing, so she is even more looking forward to Yue Shuyi, not to mention meeting opponents in chess, but there is a kind of expectation to see the places where her dance has not touched, and whether she has not paid attention to the details when she dances. "Is Yue Shuyi ready? Let's get started. β
Song Mier sat upright and opened his mouth lightly.
"Yes."
Yue Shuyi Yu Xi fixed her mind and beckoned, but saw the palace people next to her push up two blank Hangzhou silk yellow pear screens, which were placed on both sides of Yue Shuyi.
"...... this?" Shen Zhan also sat up straight.
Song Mier had already guessed what Yue Shuyi was going to do, and her interest suddenly decreased by half, this kind of trick was performed several times when she was a few years ago as an after-dinner show, and I don't know what tricks Yue Shuyi wants to come up with this time.
Song Mier didn't break it, but only waited and watched.
The sound of the guqin rang on the side of the musician in the main hall, and the sound of the pipa chime also sounded, followed by the sound of the stepping drum, the clear bamboo flute, the music was curling, and the exotic sound of turtle music and Tianzhu music. The musicians who can accompany the queen's birthday banquet are all outstanding, not to mention all instrumental musicians, but they are also respected and dominant figures when they go out. For them, it is a trivial matter to receive a temporary tune to play, not to mention that this kind of concubines know that they are going to perform at the queen's birthday banquet, so they give the score a few days in advance.
Although they can't rehearse with their concubines in advance, as long as they are proficient in the music, these musicians are still confident that they will never make mistakes.
The music sounded, and I saw Yue Shuyi's waist swinging in the middle of the main hall, and suddenly the rhythm of the music became faster and faster, more and more intense, and Yue Shuyi suddenly folded her waist and moved with the music.
Her hands stretched out with the arc of the waist folding, her heart responded to the strings, her body responded to the drum, and she spun like this, and her white wide skirt with rolling golden sand also rotated, and the concubines found that Yue Shuyi's skirt was divided into several pieces, and the whole skirt bloomed like a flower, and the dark golden belt went up and down in it, shaking dizzying.
As the poem says:
"Squatting and dancing are as anxious as a bird", "Circumambulation is in a hurry, and the backhand is like a moon".
There are already concubines below who exclaimed:
"Hu Xuan Dance!"
Hu Xuan dance from the Western Regions in the previous dynasties, the original dance was unrestrained and intense, after passing from the Central Plains, after several generations of changes, there is more taste of the Central Plains, lighter and softer, faster rotation, stronger stepping, the requirements for dance skills are also higher, there is no higher dance skills, dare not challenge. In order to look good, the costume has changed from the previous Hufu high-necked narrow-sleeved skirt to today's peach heart collar small wide-sleeved round skirt. And today, Yue Shuyi has improved it, changed the round skirt to a wide wide skirt, and even cut the wide skirt into twenty-four small faces, so that the rotation looks better, but the action is more difficult, if you are a little careless, or the waist is not soft enough, or the range of action is not round enough, or the dance is distracted, or the skirt is not completely turned, it is possible to step on the skirt and cause wrestling. It can be said that Yue Shuyi dared to do such a challenge in front of the queen and Her Majesty at the queen's birthday banquet, and she was very bold and confident.
Yue Shuyi turned faster and faster, the skirt became more and more round, and everyone found out that this skirt was not twenty-four, and there was another universe under the twenty-four skirts, and another twenty-four skirts were hidden! When it is still, it is not visible, but once it is turned away, the twenty-four skirts at the bottom also turn up, and together with the twenty-four skirts on the side of the upper head, they form a full circle.
"Huh...... This is? β
There were concubines down there who were surprised.
Everyone looked at it again, and there were a lot of dark gold embroidery threads on the original twenty-four skirts, and they thought it was just some careful thinking, so that the skirt was no longer white, but when the skirt turned up, twenty-four became forty-eight, and a skirt became a full circle, and the dark gold pattern even formed a dark gold hooked white gold lotus!
"It's so pretty......!"
There are concubines below who are amazed.
Because Yue Shuyi did not only turn in the direction of the emperor and queen, but also skillfully transferred her superb dancing skills from time to time, turning to the front on both sides of the concubines, and because the time to turn towards the concubines was shorter, the concubines had a more stunning beauty.
Yue Shuyi heard this voice of exclamation and praise, cold, because of the rapid rotation of the thin lips on the face that could not be seen clearly, suddenly slipped out of the sleeves of two different types of brushes, and at this moment, two other short and dull palace maids suddenly appeared with their heads down, each pushed a small cart and placed it on the side of the screen on both sides, and there was a small plate on the cart, and there were various colors of paint in the small plate.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Yue Shuyi, and only a small number of people noticed that there was something more on the side of the screen.
Suddenly, hearing the drums getting faster and faster, Yue Shuyi suddenly changed the angle of the posture on her hand while spinning, and after a few beats, everyone realized that she was actually dancing and painting on the screens on both sides at the same time!
It is difficult to do other movements while dancing the Hu Xuan Dance.
It's hard to paint with your left and right hands on two different screens at the same time.
It's harder to paint while dancing.
But in front of her, Yue Shuyi turned out to be dancing with her left and right hands in different places at the same time!
If it is said that the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon Shuyi is more difficult than the dance in the palm of the hand, and the boat tip dance at one level is amazing, and today's dance is even more admirable.
No matter where you are, everyone who has superb skills and can even push the boundaries is worthy of respect.
And today, everyone has seen that Yue Shuyi has that height.
Her dancing skills are no longer comparable to ordinary people.
This woman's future is limitless!
This thought came to the minds of everyone present.
Fear, jealousy, uneasiness, worry, and admiration flashed in the hearts of the concubines one by one.
But in terms of skills, this dance is several levels higher than Yuan Shufei. As long as it is not compared to the congratulatory gifts in the back, it is only better than the skills, as long as she Yue Shuyi's painting is not too ugly, tonight's top spot must be her, no, not only tonight, I am afraid that after tonight, Yue Shuyi will have the opportunity to become Concubine Yu.
And according to Yue Shuyi's temperament, the painting is too ugly, and it will definitely not be displayed on such an occasion. Now that she has taken it out, I am afraid that it is not only Concubine Yu, but the Concubine Yue who retains her title.
"Good!"
The concubines saw despair in this dance and painting, but Song Mier saw some interest. Hu Xuanwu's painting is nothing, she and the third sister also challenged the heaven and the ground to fix two pieces of drawing paper in the middle of the air, and the two of them painted and wrote while turning, completing the Baishou picture, the peach picture and the crowd celebration picture. It was on the birthday of the grandmother of the oldest family of the Song family that jumped on the birthday, and drew the mood of the crowd on the spot. In terms of skills, it is much more superb than Yue Shuyi. But after dancing once and half to death, Song Mier has no masochistic habits, of course he won't go around telling others that he will do this, what if he wants to perform again? However, cutting the skirt into loose widths is a very new thing to consider.
It is precisely because Song Mier knows how to do it that she is particularly energetic, and when she is excited, she takes the lead in applauding.
Shen Zhan heard it on the side, and also turned his head to look at Song Mi'er, whose eyes were shining, and was amused, and after watching it for a while, he turned to watch Yue Shuyi's performance again.
Everyone was amazed at the bottom, and the queen applauded from above, but Yue Shuyi, who was still excited because of everyone's exclamation, couldn't be happy in an instant.
Just because of the "good" word that the queen broke into.
What did she call good? Does she know how to dance? Do you know what you're dancing and doing? Suddenly, there was a "yes", what if I disrupted the rhythm of the musician, did I want to see myself make a fool of myself, and I was afraid that I would share His Majesty's favor?!
Yue Shuyi's heart fluctuated.
Originally, she was confident. Very confident, for his fairy appearance and temperament, for his superb dancing skills, for his figure.
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, after I took great pains to let His Majesty's vision fall on me, I was sure that His Majesty's vision would never be separated from it again.
I will step by step, into His Majesty's heart, and become the only person, the person who has to look up to the harem, what Queen Song, Liu Guifei, I have observed for a long time, one has an empty family background, the other has an empty face, there is no outstanding talent at all, after a long time, Your Majesty will not be tired? They are no threat to themselves.
She knows her advantages too well, so she never wears vulgar and glamorous clothes, never laughs loudly, and the image she maintains in front of everyone is always arrogant and cold, just like the fairy who accidentally strayed into the mortal world. Occasional kindness should be a gift.
She also knew that when she faced His Majesty at night, she occasionally showed a delicate and misty smile, and His Majesty was stunned for a moment.
Men are like that, the more they can't get it, the more they want to possess it.
The more cold and elegant he is on weekdays, the more His Majesty longs for his smile, and the more he wants to dominate himself. Isn't that moment of stunned amazement?
Yue Shuyi has always been confident, from a little concubine to a big concubine in the harem who can compete with Queen Liu Guifei, and can even become a concubine of her own, it only took a short time. She has confidence in herself, and she has confidence in Her Majesty.
But today, just now, she suddenly became less confident.
He was obviously standing under the stage, but His Majesty didn't even look at him, he only cared about talking and laughing with the queen!
If you can still convince yourself at first, Your Majesty is giving face to the queen, but then Your Majesty is smiling dotingly at the queen and staring at the queen in a daze? !
I am close, Your Majesty's eyes, that look, I can't know what it is!
What I longed for, I was looking forward to seeing it from the stunned look at myself when His Majesty came to spend the night, but I had never really seen it, but today, I actually saw it when His Majesty stared at the queen's side face!
and when talking to Yuan Shufei.
They are so close, so tacit, so affectionate, that they seem to be unable to penetrate at all!
Yue Shuyi watched from below, feeling as if her heart had been drained away, her brain was blank, and she didn't know what to do, but she just subconsciously spoke up, interrupting His Majesty's eyes.
And the queen who has an empty family background is now more and more amazing as she grows, not the kind of short-lived beauty at first sight, the more she looks at it, the more bland it is amazing, but it is beautiful at first sight, and she feels more and more moving.
Even if it is an opponent, I have to praise myself as a woman.
And in this way, he has less advantage over her.
What's even more frightening is that I have secretly observed carefully, but the queen's face is the kind of face that can be fairy, beautiful, graceful, generous, and delicate. You can wear gaudy clothes elegantly, and you can also wear plain clothes to be beautiful.
Compared to her, the advantage of her immortal qi is nothing at all. If she is willing to pretend to be an immortal, then she ...... What to do?
What's more, His Majesty is ...... to her
No! Think no more!
And now, I have one of the advantages I am most proud of, that is, my dancing skills! There will definitely not be a second one in this harem who can jump out of his own level!
And tonight's dance in the painting, I have to dance well!
Your Majesty's eyes?
You must take it back!
The more Yue Shuyi thought about it, the more anxious she became, the faster she turned, and the paintbrush in her hand swung more and more frequently.
Suddenly, I heard a "click".
