Chapter 57: The Assassination
After a few festive dances, Gao Shenghan quietly asked Gonggong Deng: "Why do these dancers all cover their veils?" "Or maybe you're wearing heavy makeup, your face is as red as a monkey's ass, and your mouth is ...... Chic, painted in the shape of various colored petals. If it weren't for the beautiful dancing and regular movements, she would have wondered if they were purely funny.
Gonggong Deng chuckled in his heart, quietly raised his eyes to observe the king's face, and found that the other party did not have a displeased expression, but it was pure curiosity, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward with a shy stomach, bowed slightly, and explained with a smile: "Probably Jingli likes this recently." "Do you want to say that in order to prevent the emperor from seeing which one is beautiful, he stepped forward and slashed people in the face twice? Although he doesn't mind that his master occasionally vents his anger, this will be the New Year's Festival, the most taboo to see blood, more things are better than less, and he has to take care of the reputation of some masters. Finally, the emperor stopped killing recently, and his temper has eased, so he can't let her go back again. He was also worried that there would be more deaths, and he would not be able to bear it, and he would flee with his family! In recent years, more and more families have absconded abroad to earn a living, and it is not without reason that the amount of tax reported by the government has been decreasing year by year. He doesn't blame the master for being ruthless and moody at all, is it easy for the master's daughter to carry a heavy burden? Why can't those fools forgive! If you are abused a few times, you won't die! Dead a son won't have another two?
Gonggong Deng bowed a bitter tear for his loyalty and patriotism.
Oh - it's a trend! Gao Sheng nodded coldly. Dark Channel: The aesthetics of the people here are really strange.
This was followed by a group dance. More than 20 sturdy men carried a large drum with a diameter of several feet and placed it in the open space in the middle of the main hall. A group of dancing girls in goose yellow gauze skirts followed in with a light lotus step, protecting a touch of peach in the middle, which was very eye-catching.
Coming to the center of the main hall, all the dancing girls spread out, evenly scattered around, like osmanthus petals scattered on the ground, delicate and lovely. With the help of the two big men, the peach-colored beauty jumped lightly and jumped on the drum surface, and the face that had been covered by water sleeves slowly revealed with her moving posture and waving water sleeves.
"Whoa—" There was a low cry from below, and the ministers sitting on both sides of the hall could see more clearly when they got closer, and their eyes burst with green light, like wolves seeing meat!
Gao Shenghan's spirit was lifted. It's not that she hasn't seen a beauty, at least the group in her back garden is very good, but when she sees this person, she has to praise: It's really charming! Full of wind and coquettishness!
Gonggong Deng has been paying attention to the king's movements, seeing that the master seems to be intent on moving, he can't help but turn his gaze to the dancing girl.
Well, it's really a stunner. Especially when it is light and jumping, the posture is graceful and graceful, and the hands and feet are soft and well-proportioned...... Next Olympics! How is it a flat chest?
- Male?
Father-in-law Deng's eyes flashed, and he suddenly lost any interest. The master can have a foundation with the minister's son, or even with the son of a small businessman, one has the right and the other has money, so no matter how the master is, it is not a loss. But this ninth-rate thing like a dancing girl ...... Still don't get your hands dirty. So he deliberately pulled a few topics to attract the emperor's attention, and by the way, he swept his eyes straight down, and motioned to several ministers who knew each other: Hurry up and toast!
More than half of the music, dancing to the extreme, everyone was drunk, and they let go of some, some of them toasted to Shangfeng, and some of them got closer to their in-laws and chatted about their children's family affairs.
Some of them saw that the man had retreated safely, and then saw that the king's face was not bad, so they followed suit. Gao Shenghan also suffered.
The courtiers who have been worried all the time can now be regarded as completely putting their hearts in their stomachs, and drinking wine is more enjoyable.
Chen Zixiu stood up, took the wine cup, and came to the king's side.
"The minister also toasts the emperor with a glass." He smiled and picked up the jade pot that Yang Mo had been holding in his hand and poured himself a cup. Yang Mo hurriedly let Xian in panic and crawled back to his position.
Gao Shenghan looked at his big gold cup, then at the other party's small cup, and said with a smile: "Slippery head." I'm worth three of you. ”
Chen Zixiu smiled heartily, "The minister drinks three cups by himself, and the emperor can do his own thing." After speaking, he poured three cups in a row and drank them all.
Gao Shenghan felt very happy. Don't look at the other party, he actually looks quite girly, but his style of acting is still very manly. However, she is a person who has mixed up at the wine party and dinner, and has drunk all the distilled spirits of 52 and 63 degrees, and she will be afraid of these sweet wines? She took up her glass, hid her face with her sleeve, and drank with her head held high.
This is when the change happens!
The group of dancing girls were turning in circles and changing their dance steps, and when they came closer, they rose from the ground and quickly attacked the dragon chair by waving their water sleeves and flying peach blossom fans!
"Death!" Father-in-law Deng's face changed, and with a wave of his hand, a few black-clothed people came out of nowhere, armed with swords and swords, blocking the first wave of attacks!
"There are assassins! Escort! The little eunuchs around the main hall exclaimed loudly, so frightened that the ministers trembled with their legs and feet, and hurriedly hid behind the pillars! There are also those who drink too much and have trouble with their hands and feet, and their heads are dizzy and they drill under the table!
For a while, the cries for help and cries rang out, the table was crooked, the pu mat was kicked away, the wine jug was poured and the dishes were spilled, the cups and plates were broken all over the place, and the crowd running and running for their lives made the scene even more chaotic!
Gao Shenghan was stunned, looking at the assassins and black-clothed guards flying in front of him, he felt like he was watching a costume martial arts drama, and he accepted incompetence for a while.
"Your Majesty, it's not safe here, let's escort the emperor back to the palace." Gonggong Deng didn't care about the bloody picture on the field at all, picked up someone's hand in a daze, and walked quickly to the back. Chen Zixiu hurriedly followed with the robe that was dragging to the ground. The male pets had already hid behind the pillar, and when they saw the king leaving, they immediately rolled over, and their little faces turned pale with fright. They knew that it was safest to follow the emperor, and there was a shortcut.
However, following the emperor is also the most dangerous, because the target of the assassins is this goods.
Sure enough, as soon as he left the main hall and reached the outside, he saw an unidentified person fighting with the Praetorian Guards in the courtyard. Strangely, two people in Praetorian Guard uniforms were also seen fighting each other. In other words: the Janissaries have infiltrated the Assassins. And seeing that the gate of the main hall was not opened in time just now, the forbidden army outside the door could not enter smoothly, the assassins were very well prepared, and I don't know how many people mixed in. Now, even the forbidden army can't be trusted.
Father-in-law Deng's face was dark and gloomy, and his face was full of anger.
But at this moment, a strong wind suddenly hit from behind!
