Chapter 9: The Queen Mother's Dance
When he came to the gate of a small courtyard, Li Cunzhong stopped, ordered Wu Kai to wait outside the courtyard, and hurried inside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wu Kai stood under the stage with an oil-paper umbrella, and made eye contact with more than a dozen big men opposite for a quarter of an hour, only to see a middle-aged eunuch hurriedly leave the courtyard door, shouting: "Which one is Wukong Monk?" ”
"The poor monk is."
Wu Kai held an umbrella in one hand and made a one-palm salute with the other.
The eunuch didn't come to pick up the stubble, but waited on the steps with his hands in his hands, and waited for a few imperial guards to come forward and carefully search for it, and then stepped forward and ordered angrily: "The official family announced that you go in to face the saint, remember to carefully watch those tricks, don't look at it randomly." ”
Seeing that the eunuch's tone was not good, Wu Kai didn't bother to say anything, just nodded and followed him into the courtyard gate.
Fang Cai looked like it was just a small courtyard outside, but after walking in, he found that there was something inside.
I saw a rippling blue wave in the center, countless strange stones piled up in it, like beasts, like people, there are long strange stones in the middle, it looks like a little dragon in the sea!
This is probably the legendary 'flower stone' that makes people in all parts of the Yangtze River boil.
On the edge of the lake, two rows of vermilion lacquered and gold-tiled promenades are built around the embankment.
Wu Kai followed the eunuch, walked along the corridor on the right side for about a hundred steps, then listened to the faint sound of music in front, walked dozens of steps, flashed two strange stones like fierce tigers confronting each other, and suddenly opened up in front of him, only to see that there was an octagonal pavilion not far away, and there were about seven or eight people standing or standing in it.
The people on the side didn't look real, but among the three people who were sitting, two of them were dressed as Taoist priests.
However, the sound of music did not come from the pavilion, but from two bamboo rafts on the lake.
The drizzle is like mist, the two bamboo rafts are rippling in the lake, and more than a dozen palace maids are lined up with goose wings on it, engrossed in playing various musical instruments, the music is soft and lingering, juanjuan comes, tears come out - it seems to be able to carry this rain and fog in the sky, wash the body and mind.
The ribbons of the colorful skirt have been soaked, wet and sticking to the body, so that the delicate body is fully revealed, with the whole body playing, the spring color is almost overwhelmed by the autumn rain.
However, the eyes of everyone in the hall did not stay on these palace maids, but concentrated on the center of the two bamboo rows, on a lotus-shaped stone platform.
Just because on this stone platform, there is a woman dancing - if the rain and fog is autumn, and those palace maids are spring, then this woman who dances alone can be said to be a hot summer.
It's not that this woman's dancing posture is bold and out of line, on the contrary, her soft movements are subtle to the extreme - just this soft and subtle, with that wet white dress, gives people countless fantasies and expectations.
And this fantasy and expectation have turned into a dry heat, making the mouth dry and difficult to control.
Tut~
No wonder before the eunuch entered the door, he told himself to take care of his eyes, and Song Huizong was watching the dance here!
Wu Kai was staring at the woman up and down, eager to record this dance, and go back so that Hu Sanniang and Gu Sister-in-law could dance to him, but he suddenly heard the middle-aged eunuch whispering: "Monk, quickly lower your head, this is also what you can see?!" ”
Wu Kai sneered, pointed to the pavilion and said, "If the Taoist priest can see it, my monk can't see it?" ”
"What do you know!"
The middle-aged eunuch turned around and glared at Wu Kai viciously, and sneered: "Lin Zhenren and Mr. Wang are both enlightened immortals, and it is natural to look at them twice, how dare you, a mortal monk, dare to blaspheme the nobles in the palace?!" ”
Wu Kai, who heard this, sneered even more, what kind of immortal who has attained Taoism, he dares to take his head and guarantee that if he lifts the robes of those two old Taoists now, there will definitely be a tent between his legs!
The middle-aged eunuch saw Wu Kai's disdain, and had the heart to stop caring about him, but after all, this person was brought in by himself, and if he collided with the nobleman, he was afraid that he would have to eat some hanging.
So he lowered his voice and reminded: "The dancing Concubine Wei Xian is the biological mother of King Kang, but she is not the nameless master, if you collide with her, I am afraid that I will not be able to find a tune in the future!" ”
King Kang?
Concubine Wei Xian?!
When Wu Kai heard this, his eyes widened, and he stared at the dancing woman - he never dreamed that the first time he entered the palace to face the saint, he saw Song Gaozong's biological mother dancing!
Tut~
This is the future Empress Dowager of the Southern Song Dynasty, and others want to see her dance, but I am afraid that it will be difficult...... Well, it seems that as long as you are a nobleman of the Jin Kingdom, it is not difficult to do this.
After all, a few years later, this Concubine Wei Xian would be plundered to the Jin Kingdom along with Song Huizong, and used as official prostitutes along with other royal nobles - according to the records of the wild history, these royal women of the Great Song Dynasty could only be protected by sheep fur every day, and their bodies were exposed to greet guests, and their treatment was even lower than that of real Jin official prostitutes.
It wasn't until King Kang Zhao Gou succeeded to the throne that she escaped the tragic fate of an official prostitute because of her special status as the queen mother.
"You monk, you are really ...... What a ......."
The eunuch saw that Wu Kai was looking more seriously, and stomped his feet angrily, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to order: "You wait here, and the Sprinkle family will go to the Tongyu first!" ”
Since he said so, Wu Kai simply stopped his steps and stood in the corridor with a big thorn, carefully observing the dance posture of the empress dowager of the Southern Song Dynasty.
After about a few minutes, Concubine Wei Xian finally finished dancing a song, bowed to the pavilion across the water, and then got on the raft, and all the palace maids propped up the penny together, and the raft went in the opposite direction to the pavilion - it seemed that she was a shameful person after all, and did not dare to go to see the two bull-nosed old Taoists so wet.
When Concubine Wei Xian disappeared behind the strange rock, Wu Kai came back to his senses and saw the middle-aged eunuch hurrying over again, and beckoned to Wu Kai: "Monk, you come with the Sprinkle family!" ”
I can finally meet Song Huizong!
Wu Kai did not hesitate, threw off the big sleeves of the monk's robe and walked towards the pavilion, and when he got close, he still straightened his chest and folded his belly, looking directly at the people in the hall, and the Taoist priests on both sides did not need to ask, it should be Lin Lingsu and what Mr. Wang, but who is who, Wu Kai is difficult to distinguish.
And among them, the handsome middle-aged man in bright yellow clothes with gold wire and jade belt is naturally Song Huizong Zhao Ji himself.
"You monk is so rude!"
Wu Kai looked carefully as he walked into the pavilion, but he heard the middle-aged eunuch who led the way scolding sharply: "When I saw the Dao Monarch Sect Master in person, why didn't you kneel down and salute quickly!" ”
With just this sentence, it can be seen that he is still jealous of Fang Cai's affairs!
He deliberately called Song Huizong the Taoist master, but there was no trace of a problem for Wu Kai, if Wu Kai knelt down and saluted, it would be equivalent to a monk kneeling down to worship the Taoist people, this is not to say that it is a deception to destroy the ancestors, at least it can be regarded as a fool and a betrayal, and it will be despised by the Buddhist monks.
If Wu Kai refused to kneel down and salute, it would naturally make Song Huizong displeased - after all, this self-canonized himself as the 'Dao Monarch Sect Master', he has always regarded himself as the Lord of Ten Thousand Immortals!
