Chapter 245: King Chen's Birthday Banquet
So this time King Chen's birthday banquet, although it was held in her palace, but most of it was not arranged by her, but arranged by His Majesty, after all, this is the birthday of His Majesty's eldest son, and His Majesty will arrange it, the best thing is that Li Zhi didn't say anything, he was busy with daily official business, so he told everyone, try not to make a big deal, such as today's people, are suffering from natural disasters.
Li Zhi ordered to go to this banquet as simple as possible, a little grand, not too extravagant and wasteful, so that the concubines in the harem show their strengths, Li Zhi thought about it, Wu Ruyu's dim sum in the palace was done well, so he handed over the matter of making dim sum to Wu Ruyu, and soon arrived at the waiting for King Chen's birthday.
Wu Ruyu also made a lot of pastries and sent them to Concubine Xiao Shu's palace, and then on the banquet, Concubine Xiao asked her to have a banquet, and let people bring King Chen up, the king of boxing, sitting between her and Li Zhi, very happy, and after the concubines and concubines of the palace sent congratulatory gifts, everyone began to sit down and enjoy the dance, Concubine Xiao looked at Queen Wang, and said to Queen Wang,
"Last time, my sister said that the dance music in the palace of the concubine is not as good as the one you have seen, although my sister doesn't know who it is, but it is not easy to find people who want to dance so well, so today, this palace has people go to the folk and find a garden with excellent dancing, so that they can enter the palace to dance for His Royal Highness King Chen,"
Li Zhi did not arrange the dance music, this was arranged by Xiao Shufei herself, Xiao Shufei has been haunted by the queen last time said that the dance music in her palace was ordinary, this time she ordered people to search among the people, I heard that in Chang'an City, the most popular among the masses is a song workshop called Liyuanfang, so she sent someone to find the owner of Liyuanfang.
At the beginning, when I first came into contact with this pear orchard fang, the people of this pear orchard fang refused to come to the palace to dance, they only performed in the folk, Xiao Shufei thought, since they are the best music workshop, they have the capital to bargain, so it is understandable that these people cannot be moved.
But after all, this is for His Majesty's eldest son's birthday banquet to dance, Concubine Xiao Shu went to Li Zhi to ask for a decree, saying that she would prepare the best music workshop to celebrate her son's birthday, Li Zhi didn't know that she was talking about Liyuanfang, so he casually made a decree and asked her to invite, Shen Yuan and Tinglan were also very helpless after receiving this will.
But they have never entered the palace to perform, and now Situ Mingyue is not in this palace, and was sent to Tubo, if something goes wrong when they go to the palace, what should they do if Situ Mingyue is affected again? That night, Shen Yuan discussed with Tinglan.
But there has been no discussion of a countermeasure for a long time, Ting Lan thought, since this trip must go, then let's go, arrange a performance, if there is any emergency, then deal with it then, Shen Yuan thought that it was the only way, so she didn't say anything anymore, this time she didn't bring all the disciples in the Liyuan Fang into the palace, only brought Jingxi and Hongye into the palace.
They lined up a child dance to celebrate their birthday, danced by the red leaves, Jingxi blow the flute, Tinglan played the piano, Shen Yuan made a song for her, the red leaves are the most true transmission of Situ Mingyue's dance, as long as there is no chaos, when the performance is over, they will leave the palace quickly, Shen Yuan remembered that His Majesty had been to their Liyuan Fang, I don't know if His Majesty still remembers them.
After all, Situ Mingyue has been away for so long, Your Majesty shouldn't remember, when he arrived at the palace, the banquet was about to start, Shen Yuan and Tinglan took Jing Xi and took the lead to the pre-arranged musician's position, Li Zhi sat on the stage and drank, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw the three people who came out.
Isn't this the current owner of the Liyuan Fang founded by Situ Mingyue? How did they come? Could it be that Concubine Xiao Shu invited them, Li Zhi frowned, and after a while, with the sound of the palace people having a banquet, Shen Yuan stood up and said to Concubine Xiao Shu on the stage,
"Today, the grass people and others celebrated His Royal Highness King Chen's birthday, and specially brought a child dance to His Royal Highness King Chen,"
Concubine Xiao said with a smile,
"Child's dance, the name sounds quite childlike, but what does it mean?"
"Child dance, as the name suggests, is also His Royal Highness King Chen's current age, grass people and others will dance, is to hope that His Royal Highness King Chen can be happy, free, healthy and healthy, do child dance today, he will be a talent in the future, I hope His Royal Highness King Chen, this life is safe and smooth, all wishes come true,"
Concubine Xiao Shu looked at Shen Yuan happily and said,
"Very good, very good, this palace has long heard that you are the most famous song workshop in Chang'an City, and now you have specially made this group of children's dance for His Royal Highness King Chen, this palace is looking forward to it, this means that it is very good to make everything come true, this palace really hopes that our Royal Highness King Chen can make everything come true, don't you say? Your Majesty......"
Li Zhi didn't answer Concubine Xiao Shufei's words, Concubine Xiao called him again, Li Zhi glanced at her, lowered his head and continued to drink, Shen Yuan didn't know if His Majesty remembered them, and never dared to raise his head, and when Concubine Xiao Shu stopped saying anything, she slowly walked back to the place where the musician was sitting.
At this time, the red leaves have not yet appeared, and their habit of dancing music has always been that the musician comes first, and the musician will only appear after the musician comes out, this way of appearing is to create a sense of amazement, which is also the way Situ Mingyue used to appear, Xiao Shufei looked at them all sitting, a little puzzled, and others were also puzzled, including Wu Ruyu, this musician is here.
Could it be that they are dancing as children today, just playing music?
It's impossible, it's all said to be dancing, why is there only music? Shen Yuan told them not to worry, as soon as they started playing music, the music girl would soon appear, and soon, as the music sounded, a woman in a bright Confucian skirt suddenly turned around, extremely fast, this woman was only ten or six years old, and she looked very cute.
Delicate, in the dance, the dance posture is full of energy, galloping and powerful, very amazing, Wang Huan looked at the child, and unconsciously remembered a person, Situ Mingyue, this child is simply a copy of Situ Mingyue, Wu Ruyu was also stunned on the spot, why are the music girls in this qufang so similar to Situ Mingyue's dancing body and posture, do they have anything to do with Situ Mingyue? Wu Ruyu frowned, Li Zhi looked at the people who were dancing below, he knew that this girl was one of Situ Mingyue's apprentices.
Looking at her familiar dancing, Li Zhi didn't speak, Xiao Shufei felt that the atmosphere around her was very weird, but she couldn't tell what was weird? But she has to say that the folk music workshop she found is really a must, and the music performance is also a masterpiece, no wonder it is so difficult to invite.
