Chapter 109: A Dance in the City
Yan Zenyi saw that the bewildered look of the senior sister was really cute, and couldn't help pinching the senior sister's cheek before continuing, "Senior sister, don't be afraid, your set of double-sleeved sword techniques, replacing the sleeve sword with colored silk is the most beautiful dance step in the world." ”
"Really?" Li Enchanting was suspicious, still frowning and asking, "But where to find colored silk now?" ”
"Don't worry, there is a pair of spare ones in the colorful silk carriage where I practice martial arts, and it will be too late to let Fenghua get it now." Yan Zenyi has a feeling that she is a treasure chest of her senior sister at the moment, and she is faintly a little proud.
Li Enchanting finally put her mind at ease when she heard this, and secretly glanced at Su Ruoshui out of the corner of her eye, seeing that he didn't seem to care about everything that happened in front of her at all, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.
Just now, his affectionate confession was silently rejected, and now he was openly provoked by his rival, she was obviously not his sweetheart, but she cheekily accepted the challenge of her rival. She despised herself a little, but she was also greedy for the feeling that everyone thought that she was the person Su Ruoshui liked.
Fang Yuwei had already changed into a peach-colored dance dress and entered the Hall of Forgotten Worries at this moment, and the little maid who followed her walked to the musician and whispered a few words, and then there was melodious music slowly rising.
Fang Yuwei danced her limbs with the music, Yingying's waist writhed unscrupulously, and her charming temperament erupted in every gesture. The expression on her face was also calm and confident, as if she didn't need to know better than her that she had won.
Although Yan Zenyi doesn't know how to dance, compared with the sword dance of her senior sister in her memory, this dance will definitely be left by her senior sister's scum in seconds.
As soon as Fang Yuwei finished dancing, Li Enchanting walked to the hall without humility or arrogance, she didn't know what kind of song she needed, but the song Fang Yuwei danced just now seemed to be pretty good, so she walked over and said to the musician in the corner, "Let's play this song again." ”
Fang Yuwei glared at Li Enchanting when she heard this, and said in a low voice, "Hmph, take your own humiliation." ”
It's a low voice, but it's a volume that can be heard all around. Yan Zenyi heard the words but smiled silently, and when her senior sister finished dancing, this Fang girl should know who was "humiliating".
Xiao Sheng rose softly, only to see the white-clothed girl in the hall raise her hand slightly, and two goose-yellow long silk silks slipped out of her cuffs, and were clenched in the palm of her hand by her slender jade fingers.
The girl stretched her long silk lightly, her delicate body rotated, and the crescent white gown also flew, she flipped lightly and gracefully, fluttering like a fairy, like jade's plain hands lingering gracefully, the skirt fluttered, a pair of smoky eyes wanted to talk and rest, the streamer flew, the whole person was like a flower through the fog, hazy and ethereal, flashing with beautiful colors, but it was so far away.
Everyone was attracted by this beautiful dance, looking at the body that was as soft as a cloud, and the posture of giving birth to a lotus step by step, as if looking at the butterflies flying among the flowers, and like a fairy falling from the sky.
After watching such a dance, who still remembers Fang Yuwei, who also danced the same tune just now. But at this moment, Fang Yuwei was angry, and the handkerchief in her hand was almost shattered by her.
"Let's compare to anything else!" The song had stopped, and everyone was still intoxicated by the dreamlike dance just now, when they were woken up by an abrupt female voice.
Li Enchanting raised her hand and instantly withdrew the two goose-yellow long silk silks into her sleeves, and then raised her eyebrows and glanced at Fang Yuwei, who was like a clown jumping off the beam, and said contemptuously, "Why are all the young ladies in this city willing to gamble and not admit defeat?" It's really not as interesting as the village girl in the countryside. ”
After saying that, he returned to his seat and ignored her.
"Rebel girl, don't come back yet!" Fang Shilang was stunned just now, and then he realized that the one who was embarrassed in the hall was his daughter.
Fang Yuwei trembled with a bewitching sneer, and before she could reply, she was startled by her father's roar, and then remembered that this was in the palace, not in her backyard.
So he glanced at the emperor on the high platform with some apprehension, but saw that the emperor looked at the bewitching slut with an intoxicated face, and his heart suddenly understood, so he pretended to be taught, and bowed his head and said, "Sister Li's dancing posture is captivating the country and the city, and my sister is willing to bow to the wind." Sister Li is so good, even if she is placed in the harem, she must be the head of the harem. ”
The emperor and the queen on the high platform changed their faces together, the difference is that the emperor has a face of reverie and yearning, while the queen has a haze visible to the naked eye.
"The courtiers lost their words, the courtiers were just charmed by this dance, and they were incoherent for a while, and asked the emperor and queen to atone for their sins." Saying that, Fang Yuwei immediately knelt down again, with a hypocritical look of apprehension, as if it was really not intentional.
The queen listened to her say that she was charmed by this dance, and her heart was even more alarmed.
The emperor glanced back at the queen with some nervousness, and when he saw the iron blue face, he quickly looked at Su Ruoshui, and said to the mud, "What do you think of An Ninghou?" How I marry you is up to you. ”
"Emperor Xie raises love, but the minister has no plans to start a family for the time being, so he won't bother the emperor." Su Ruoshui still responded lightly, he didn't have a heart to be enchanting, not to mention that now the emperor is obviously thinking about Li Enchanting, and he has a chance to refuse to marry.
The emperor was also relieved when he heard it, but today he has forced the queen to let him be promoted to the position of Meng Zhaoyi, and if he accepts the harem at this moment, he is afraid that Shen Zuoxiang above the court will make trouble for himself again. Although he is a little reluctant, this beautiful woman is still unmarried, and the future is long, and what he wants will always be available.
At this point in the palace banquet, the emperor had already used the excuse of eating to deal with political affairs, so he left the table first, and before leaving the banquet, he did not forget to take a meaningful look at Li Enchanting.
As soon as the emperor left, the rest of the family members had no interest in competing for beauty, and only some courtiers were still drinking and clinking glasses to get acquainted with each other.
Seeing that his family had stopped chopsticks, Prince Yan suggested softly, "Let's go back to the palace." ”
Prince Yan has always disliked socializing with these people, and he has always maintained the illusion of a cold-faced prince in front of outsiders, although he controls most of the military power, he is a pure minister who is only loyal to the emperor, so no one dares to come forward to exchange feelings with him.
So the Yan Wangfu family got up and left the table, and when Yan Zenyi got up, he looked at the corner on the high platform, and Wei Youchen said softly with his mouth, "Wait for me." ”
Yan Chanyi nodded invisibly, and then walked out of the hall with a red face and holding his mother's arm.
When Su Ruoshui saw that they were leaving, he also stood up and walked towards the carriage outside the palace together.
Su Ruoshui wanted to talk to Yan Chanyi, but Yan Chanyi had been relying on Princess Yan's side, and he couldn't get over it, so he could only follow them slowly. Li Enchanting noticed his following, so she slowed down and slowly walked on Su Ruoshui's side.
Su Ruoshui frowned lightly and said in a low voice, "Today's palace banquet is shining, I'm afraid that Miss Li will live in this Great Zhou harem soon." ”
Li Enchanted paused, and then understood what the emperor's meaningful eyes before leaving the table meant.
Suddenly ashamed and annoyed, the whole person couldn't help but tremble, and said softly, "He dreamed, I will never enter the palace." ”
"I won't be pleased with you, the emperor is in the prime of life, and entering the palace is not all a bad thing for you." Su Ruoshui said lightly, but the words he said were like a sharp blade that sealed his throat when he saw blood, and it pierced into Li Enchanting's heart.
"You...... Do you want me to enter the palace? There was a tremor in her bewitching voice, she just liked him, was she wrong?
"That's your business." Su Ruoshui was still faint, and there was no trace of emotion in her words.
When Li Enchanting heard this, she only felt that this July night was so cold and biting, as cold as Su Ruoshui's widowhood, and as cold as her own heart.
She couldn't help but cover her heart and stopped.
Seeing that she didn't follow, Su Ruoshui hesitated for a moment but stopped, and said in a low voice, "The whole world is not the king's land, if you don't want to enter the palace, go back to your Mountain of No Return as soon as possible." The mountain is high there, and the emperor is far away, and he can't restrain you. ”
Li Enchanting heard this, but her heart warmed up a lot, Su Ruoshui must still care about her a little bit, right?
So she quickly chased forward and whispered, "I won't enter the palace, and I won't go back to the Mountain of No Return." I don't want to go anywhere, I just want to be close to you, just look at you. ”
Su Ruoshui turned her head sideways and glanced at this bewitching-looking but overly simple little girl, sighed lightly, and said nothing more. He knew in his heart that if she didn't return to the Mountain of No Return, her life would no longer be up to her.
Seeing that he didn't say anything to refuse, Li Enchanting immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised. It seems that the love she longs for will sooner or later favor her and let her get what she wants.
Walking to the side of the carriage, Su Ruoshui said goodbye to the people of Yanwangfu, and reminded at the end, "Zen Yi, don't forget tomorrow's appointment." ”
Yan Chanyi smiled and nodded, she had been secretly watching Su Ruoshui and Senior Sister walking side by side not far behind her, although she couldn't hear what they said, but the smile on Senior Sister's face now couldn't deceive people.
Although she has never chased a man, she has also heard that men chase women across mountains, and women chase men across the veil. What's more, an excellent woman like Senior Sister may have just forgotten the dance in the palace that can make him have a moment of heartbeat?
Yan Zenyi hugged Li Enchanting's shoulders and smiled at Su Ruoshui, "Don't worry, there will be no one less people I said I want to bring." ”
Su Ruoshui looked at her as if she had obviously misunderstood something, and wanted to explain that she didn't speak in the end. It's okay to misunderstand, at least this little girl who is at the tip of his heart won't be afraid of herself and hide from herself. Just like today, until this time, she was willing to smile and say a word to him.
"Where are you going tomorrow?" Su Manshu heard Su Ruoshui's words, but she didn't ask in person.
Although Su Ruoshui is her cousin, she is really a distant relative who is far away, and she is not very familiar. So as soon as she got into the carriage, she couldn't wait to ask.
"Tomorrow Uncle Tang's birthday, my brother and I will go to his house tomorrow to celebrate his birthday, and I also said that I would take my senior sister, Yun Gongzi and my future sister-in-law together." Yan Zenyi immediately replied obediently.
