Chapter 165: Heavenly Demon Dance

He touched a few locks of his beard, sighed, and then patted Hama's sweat-soaked back, "Shi Lian, the burden on the court is too heavy now, and I can't breathe." ”

Listening to the change in the style of his words, Hama felt a little calmer, and hurriedly answered: "What are you worried about, Hama will do his best to share your worries." ”

Totoku smiled indifferently, picked up Hama and said: "Get up, I know your loyalty, I lost some temper today, don't go to your heart." ”

Hama's ability to read words and emotions is extraordinary, and he thinks about the situation in the DPRK and China in his heart, and he understands the place to get rid of his worries in his breath.

Now that Emperor Zhizheng suddenly left the government affairs behind, all the burdens were on the shoulders of Tokto.

On the other hand, Emperor Zhizheng gave up on himself, hiding in this unobstructed hall all day long, prostituting the monarchs and ministers, messing with the etiquette and law, and now he is indifferent to even state affairs.

Is this still the young man who wanted to reorganize the dynasty?

This is already a great yuan!

Hama thought about the joints clearly, and immediately had an idea, and said with a sneer: "You have worked hard to control the river, and the saint is here, and Hama will explain the benefits and disadvantages to him, and make sure that the saint will not blame the lord." ”

After hearing this, he nodded, fell into silence, and loved and hated people like Hama in his heart, he introduced traitors to the emperor, for the sake of the inner court, causing the emperor to become more and more addicted to the way of fun, and abandoning the court, but he encountered danger several times, and he relied on his help to survive, if he did not rely on him to mediate for himself by the emperor's side, how could he dare to exert his fists and feet in the court, and show his ambitions?

After pondering for a long time, Tokhoff still let go of his murderous intentions, and said softly: "As a courtier, I naturally dare not interfere in the affairs of the palace, but I must also often admonish the saints. ”

Hama faced the reminder of detachment, and immediately bowed down and said: "Hama remembers the kindness of the adult, and I dare not forget it." Then he sighed and said with a bitter face: "Today's harem situation is indeed Hama's fault, and I never thought that this butterfly method was so absurd, but since the saint is already happy with it, how dare I stop it?" But don't worry, my lord, there is Hama here to help you keep an eye on it, and no one in the harem dares to point fingers at you, but all the affairs of the court are handled by you alone. ”

Since he couldn't see the emperor, and the purpose of mentioning some hama had been achieved, Totokh didn't say more, and after taking a deep look at the door of the unobstructed hall, he tightened his waist and tied the jade belt, and strode away with soap boots.

After Hama bowed down and watched him leave, he let out a long breath, his heart was extremely complicated. As a human minister, who does not aspire to become a virtuous minister who is dedicated to the country like Totokh, and the same is true of Hama, but his humble background limits him from being incomparable with a proud son of heaven like Tokhtar. Therefore, in order to stand to the end in this court full of battles, he could only hold on to the thickest tree of Emperor Zhizheng.

shook his head full of meat, got rid of his chaotic thoughts, and prepared to go to the "Unhindered Hall" to serve Emperor Zhizheng.

Just as he was about to enter the door, a woman's majestic voice suddenly came from behind.

"Hama-sama."

When Hama heard the voice, he cried out in his heart, why was he so unlucky today, and he repeatedly met a character he couldn't provoke? Then he turned his head and bowed.

The person who came was none other than Queen Qi, the most powerful second queen in the harem.

The Yuan Dynasty can set up many queens, but there is only one in the main palace, and the current queen of the main palace is Boyan Hudu Shude and gentle, and never participates in the power struggle, so Queen Qi has the actual power of the queen.

Empress Qi was originally a Goryeo nobleman, and was dedicated to the Yuan court as a Goryeo tribute girl, and was the maid of the Fengcha palace of Emperor Zhizheng at the beginning.

Later, because of the birth of the prince's son Aiyu Zhili Dala, she was canonized as the second queen, lived in Xingsheng Palace, and colluded with the most favored eunuch Pu Buhua of Emperor Zhizheng, wantonly excluded dissidents and monopolized power.

Hama can gain a foothold in the harem, so he is naturally quite close to him.

Emperor Zhizheng, Empress Qi, and Totok, the three most powerful people in the Yuan court, regarded Hama as confidants, and Hama's eight-sided exquisite ability can be seen from this.

Empress Qi was thirty-five or sixteen years old, and she still had her charm, and when she approached Hama, she raised her eyebrows lightly and asked, "Is the Holy One inside?" ”

Hama saluted and straightened up, nodded, and did not speak.

Queen Qi stretched out her right hand, and the eunuch Pu Buhua next to her hurriedly came over to hold her, and Hama took advantage of the queen's inattention, glanced at her, and signaled to take the queen away.

Pu Buhua blinked his eyes, indicating that he understood, so he turned his head and whispered: "Empress, the Holy Lord has been in a bad mood these days, so let's not go in, right?" ”

Queen Qi ignored him, raised her chin at Hama, and motioned for him to open the door.

Ha Ma looked embarrassed and hesitated: "Empress, if you go in at this moment, I am worried that it will annoy the saint." ”

Empress Qi glared at him and said in a puffed voice, "That...... Are you willing to annoy Hongu? ”

Hama has a great friendship with Queen Qi, and he is not as afraid of him as he is of Toto, so he shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Hama opens the door." ”

Immediately led Queen Qi and Pu Buhua into through the side door, and as soon as she entered, Queen Qi was so angry by the sight that she was angry, and said angrily: "Okay! The rumors outside my road are all exaggerated, I can't imagine that it is really so unbearable! ”

The secret hall here is designed by Emperor Zhizheng himself, the craftsman builds according to his drawings, a large bed is placed in the hall, its width can accommodate dozens of people to live in it, at this moment Emperor Zhizheng hat with gold and jade Buddha, holding several Bodhi beads, sitting in the middle of the bed.

In front of the couch, there are sixteen palace maids dancing, the palace maids comb their hair into a number of small braids, wear a Buddha crown made of ivory, wear colorful Yingluo, wear a short red silk and gold skirt, wear a gold silk jacket, shoulder the cloud shawl, the sleeves of the heavenly robe, and the ribbon shoes and socks.

Each person has its own law enforcement instrument, one of them holds the bell and pestle to lead the dance, and there are eleven palace maids with dragon flute, head pipe, small pipe, zheng, pipa, sheng, huqin, castanets, clappers and so on as musical instruments to accompani, enchanting to the extreme.

This dance has been circulated in the Yuan court for a long time, it was originally the old music dance of Western Xia, and later because of its solemn treasure and fragrant and elegant, it was renamed the Sixteen Heavenly Demon Dance. There is a poem that praises:

The West Heaven Fa Qu Man has a long voice, and the Yingluo draped clothes are called superb.

In the singing and dancing in the banquet hall, Huayan Hai will celebrate the king.

Western dancers are celestials, and their jade hands are full of green.

Dancing and singing the heavenly demon worship song, the king often listens to it in the Moon Palace.

Queen Qi, who was born as a palace maid, naturally recognizes this dance, but what is the appearance of this dance at this moment?

Empress Qi was angry, and immediately stepped forward with a cold face, wanting to comfort the emperor.
