When the Empress Dowager of the Qianzhao Dynasty celebrated her birthday, the whole country naturally rejoiced.

Although the emperor's original intention was to celebrate the birthday of the queen mother, so that the whole country could enjoy together, and the army and the people would enjoy together. But because of the border war, the people in the border are miserable. For the sake of the queen mother's birthday, the local officials wantonly looted the people's fat and ointment, which led to the boiling of public resentment and complaints.

But these were suppressed by local officials with thunderous means. The people dare to be angry and dare not speak, on the surface it seems that there is nothing to do, but in fact, there is already a force of resistance accumulating inside.

Although high pressure can calm the "lake" without waves, the dark tide is turbulent when the wind is calm and the waves are calm, and there is a possibility of eruption at any time.

But all this, the people of Kyoto are not unaware, and they still live their own small lives and calculate their own little abacus. If the people in the market have a low vision and do not have a keen sense of the situation, then those who hold the decision-making power above the court are also drunk and dreaming of death, and it can only be said that the dynasty that has only been a hundred years old has decayed.

The Queen Mother's birthday was still held as scheduled, and the birthday compendiums sent from various places also arrived in Beijing one after another. Looking at the procession of escorts from all over the country to the birthday gang presented to the Queen Mother from the four gates of the east, west, south and north every day, the people of Kyoto were not interested in those escorts, but were extremely interested in the birthday gifts full of cars. Some restaurants in Kyoto even open the private rooms facing the street to people who are willing to watch the excitement, just so that diners can enjoy the food while watching the escort procession of the soup.

Judging from the convoys brought by the teams from all over the country to Beijing, it seems that the Qianzhou Dynasty was a peaceful and prosperous era and was not affected by the war.

But no one knows how long such peaceful days will last.

The luxury of the royal family, or the disregard for the suffering of the people, has reached the point of indignation, but now it is still drunk and golden, and no one will think of digging for survival until the time when it is terminally ill.

If you don't explode in silence, you die in silence. This kind of calm before the storm makes people with a keen sense of smell feel the oppression of the coming mountain rain.

Song Yi was in the real king's mansion, hurrying up to prepare a gift for the queen mother. It's said to be a gift, but it's actually just a show.

Last time, Song Yi deliberately went to the palace to ask the Queen Mother's love, in fact, it was to tell the Queen Mother that he had put a lot of thought into it for the Queen Mother's birthday. In fact, Song Yi has already started to prepare for the program that should be prepared.

From the moment she heard that the emperor was going to hold a birthday for the queen mother, Song Yi asked Gui's mother to invite some dancers back for her at a high price, and secretly prepared a new show.

As for what program to prepare, Song Yi has always remained mysterious, even the real king, she has not said it.

The true king naturally did not interfere with Song Yi's behavior, firstly because he believed in the princess, and on the other hand, because he had been too busy recently.

As for what he was busy with, although Song Yi didn't inquire, he also had some guesses.

Soon, it was the day of the Queen Mother's birthday.

The emperor had already issued an edict, not only amnesty to the world, but also a three-day celebration of the whole country.

Early in the morning, Song Yi got up to freshen up and dress, and then followed the true king out of the house.

Today, everyone in the True King's Mansion is going to enter the palace, so early in the morning, at the gate of the True King's Mansion, the free ride is very lively.

The old lady Du Shi, Zhu Yuanshan and his wife, Zhu Yuanchuan and his wife, the second son Zhu Chengjun, and the fourth lady Zhu Shanlei all entered the palace.

Therefore, there are more than a dozen carriages alone, not to mention gifts for the Queen Mother.

Cao has been detained in the house by her husband these days, and if she hadn't entered the palace today, Cao couldn't have been released.

At this time, the Cao family still did not change his arrogant nature, and his whole body was dressed extremely luxuriously, and he looked like an outburst.

Everyone who saw her dress frowned and shook their heads, not daring to disagree with her taste.

Zhu Yuanchuan regretted it a little, he knew that he should not have agreed to let the Cao family enter the palace together. If the Cao family is dressed like this, after entering the palace, he will definitely become the laughing stock of everyone.

But it's too late to say anything now, and it's too late for Cao to change his outfit again. So, according to her own personality, Cao Shi entered the palace in what she thought was the most grand costume.

Fortunately, although the Cao family is absurd, a pair of children have not inherited their character. The two sisters, Zhu Chengjun and Zhu Shanlei, are dressed in plain clothes, which is very consistent with their age and bookish atmosphere. Today is the Queen Mother's birthday, although the clothes of the two are very simple, but the accessories are not casually matched, which is very pleasing to the eye.

After the Zhenwangfu and his party entered the palace, they went straight to the Jiaotai Hall where the banquet was held.

There will be a show every day today, and the palace will celebrate for three days. Today is a gift from hundreds of officials to the Queen Mother.

There are performances during the day, dinner and fireworks in the evening.

And the show prepared by Song Yi was at the time of eating.

There is nothing new about the theatrical performances during the day. They are all songs that must be sung on a birthday. It's just that the people who sing are better.

Song Yi didn't like to listen to dramas in the first place, so he was absent-minded all the time, and finally waited until after dark.

The table for listening to the play was put away and the dining table was relocated.

The table is full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, needless to say. But at this moment, Song Yi is not in the mood to eat these delicacies, in her eyes, it is like wax.

Zhu Xi knew that Song Yi was thinking about the performance he had prepared and had no intention of eating, but thinking of her special situation now, Zhu Xi still took the initiative to put a lot of food in Song Yi's bowl.

Song Yi's mind was not on the dinner table, but he still mechanically stuffed the food in the bowl into his mouth.

By the time she realized it, she had eaten a lot before she knew it, and her stomach was full. But when I think about it, I don't know what I just ate.

Song Yi squinted and glared at the man next to him, "Are you really feeding me like a pig?" ”

The man only smiled and did not refute. Although Song Yi refused verbally, his body was still very honest.

In the face of the dishes brought by the man, he did not refuse.

The interaction between the real king and the real princess was watched by many people on the field.

Some people are happy, some people are jealous, some people are unhappy, and so on.

"Princess, the next show is ours," Haruka reminded from the side.

After Song Yi heard this, he nodded, then took a few breaths, came out of the table and knelt down to the Queen Mother and the Emperor on the stage.

"Long live, Queen Mother. Today is the birthday of the emperor's grandmother, and Song Yi has prepared a congratulatory program. Please also ask the Queen Mother and the Emperor to appreciate it."

With that, Song Yi retreated. Then all the lanterns on the field were extinguished, leaving only the menorah around the stage.

Then, a screen appeared in the middle of the stage, and behind the screen there were many shadows to see some figures, but they were not real.

Then, a white mist rises from the middle of the stage and disperses around the stage.

The smoke is misty and unreal like a fairyland.

Suddenly, the music sounded, the flute sounded melodious, and the shallow singing was low. The big strings are noisy like a torrential rain, and the small strings are like whispers. Noisy and staggered, big beads and small beads fall on the jade plate. The bottom of the flower is slippery, and it is difficult to go under the drift ice of the secluded spring. The ice fountain is cold and astringent, and the condensation will not be silent for a while.

Then, the screen was removed, the torches were lit, and everyone on the stage saw that a huge lotus platform appeared on the stage at some point. It's like the lotus platform under the Buddha.

There are seven dancers on the lotus stage, wearing Western clothes, beautiful makeup, bold costumes, light veils, and holding a pipa in their hands to half-cover their faces.

The seven of them twisted their bodies and posed in different poses, as if they had stepped out of the portrait, and did not move on the stage.

Suddenly, the high-pitched flute sounded again. Mixed with the sound of drums, pianos, and pianos, the seven danced to the music, and the thin veil attached to their bodies fluttered with the evening breeze, giving people the illusion that they could fly up with the wind at any time.

The seven dancers, both in shape and appearance, are the same, as if carved out of a mold.

As the music is high, the seven dancers keep changing their dance postures, but no matter how they move, their feet are like lotus platforms growing on the stage, giving people a mysterious and unpredictable feeling.

Everyone was amazed, only to realize that this show was still ingenious. The makeup and costumes of the dancers are completely the images of the flying fairies on the Dunhuang stone paintings. And all the stages and music are also to create an artistic conception of feathering and ascending immortals.

Everyone was amazed and dumbfounded.

Song Yi has been directing the dancers offstage and cooperating with the stage lighting and music. Strive to achieve perfection in the stage of the choreography and music. Watching the audience immersed in the dance, Song Yi's sense of pride and accomplishment was unprecedentedly high.

Song Yi looked at the real king on the stage for the first time, saw the man's eyes full of appreciation, and then looked at the queen mother, and saw that everyone was very appreciative, Song Yi felt that the hard work of these days was very worthwhile.
