Chapter 31: Drama Butterfly Clothes
At this moment, I suddenly heard a call outside the window: "Young Master." ”
A call made Shao Ziqing a little startled, glanced at the dark shadow outside the window, and asked solemnly, "When did you come back?" ”
The voice outside the window replied, "Just came back." ”
Shao Ziqing suppressed her anger, let go of all her emotions, and slowly sat down: "Come in." ”
Jiang Zuiyao was curious for a moment, who could calm down the angry Shao Ziqing.
With the sound of small footsteps, I only saw a seven-foot-tall, thin, man wearing a dark green and dark pattern robe walked in, his black hair combed in a neat bun, and a delicate green dragon sword pinned to his waist.
He is Shao Ziqing's entourage - Chirong.
Shao Ziqing asked directly: "How are things going?" ”
Chi Rong didn't even glance at Jiang Zuiyao since he entered the door, there was only Shao Ziqing in his eyes, and he bowed his head slightly and replied: "According to the young master's orders, it's all done." ”
Shao Ziqing's face sank: "Can you do it neatly?" ”
Chi Rong solemnly replied: "Young master, don't worry, you will be killed with one sword, leaving no trace." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Zuiyao's heart immediately trembled.
Is Chi Rong Shao Ziqing's killer? Kill with a single sword...... Who did he kill?
Shao Ziqing didn't have any expression on his face at the moment, a person's life and death seemed to him as if it was an ordinary thing, and said: "After traveling for many days, you are also tired, go back and rest." ”
Chi Rong didn't leave, and said solemnly: "My subordinates still have something to do." ”
"Say." , Shao Ziqing spit out a word, but Chi Rong glanced at Jiang Zuiyao with a little guard, and with a slight hesitation, Shao Ziqing said: "Don't worry about her, just say it directly." ”
Only then did Chi Rong speak: "Young Master, the history of Jiangzhou has entered Kyoto. ”
As soon as these words came out, Shao Ziqing was suddenly startled and slightly surprised: "So fast? ”
Chirong nodded: "When my subordinates returned to the city today, I happened to see that Jiangzhou Thorn Shi rode the fastest blood-red horse into the city. ”
For some reason, Shao Ziqing asked in a little panic: "Can you enter the palace?" ”
Chi Rong shook his head: "My subordinates have followed all the way, and Jiangzhou Thorn Shi has rested in the inn and has not entered the palace." ”
Shao Ziqing didn't rush to reply, sat there and pondered for a long time, and his eyes were cold: "I'm afraid something is going to happen tonight." ”
Chi Rong replied: "Young master, don't worry, your subordinates have arranged for people to ambush around the inn. ”
Shao Ziqing quickly got up and said, "No, if something happens, it's too late, follow me." ”
After saying this, Shao Ziqing hurriedly walked out, and Chi Rong followed closely and said, "Young master, we have been targeted." ”
With just this sentence, Shao Ziqing stopped suddenly, looked at Chi Rong with sharp eyes, although he didn't mention his name, he knew who Chi Rong was talking about, and tightened his teeth: "It seems that someone is faster than us." ”
Chi Rong nodded: "Young Master, what should we do?" ”
Shao Ziqing froze in place, looked at the darkening sky outside, thought for a moment, and his eyes fell on Jiang Zuiyao's body.
Such a sharp gaze made Jiang Zuiyao tremble, what was Shao Ziqing going to do to her?
Then, Shao Ziqing actually came up with such a sentence: "Prepare a sedan chair, I want to go to Huamanlou with the young lady to listen to the play." ”
Jiang Zuiyao was taken aback instantly, listening to the play? He's going to go to the theater with her?
When night fell, Jiang Zuiyao followed Shao Ziqing in a sedan chair and went to the most prosperous street in Zhaojing.
Come to a theater, called Huamanlou, this is the most famous theater garden in Zhaojing, there are many famous actors in it, in the past, every festival, the Shao family will invite the actors here to sing on the stage in the mansion.
Jiang Zuiyao followed Shao Ziqing into the theater, Chi Rong had already booked a seat, it was a private room on the second floor, the seat was set by the window, and through the window, you could see the stage below, which was really a good location.
The shopkeeper served good tea and good fruits, and he retreated with interest.
Jiang Zuiyao looked at Shao Ziqing who was sitting opposite, she didn't know what Shao Ziqing was doing, she didn't believe that he would kindly invite her to watch the play, there must be fraud in it.
The drama took the stage, singing all kinds of operas, and the tunes were all very good, but Jiang Zuiyao listened absent-mindedly.
Suddenly, a scene appeared on the stage, which attracted applause from the audience, and Jiang Zuiyao raised his eyes to see that it was the pillar of the flowered building-Dieyi.
It was a man, but he was singing Danjiao, that is, a man pretending to be a woman.
The red costume, embroidered with extremely dazzling patterns, with red makeup on her face and a phoenix crown on her head, looks more enchanting than a woman under the depiction of rouge gouache.
Dieyi is a well-known character in Zhaojing, just because he sings very well in opera, and I heard that after removing makeup, his true appearance is also enchanting, so many girls have to take pity.
At the beginning of the Jinghu tune, Dieyi swayed on the stage, her smile was particularly striking, she was simply a woman who was free from her life, and she had no manhood at all.
"Seeing the Jade Rabbit, the Jade Rabbit has risen to the east early......"
The song "The Drunken Concubine", as soon as the voice was opened, immediately attracted enthusiastic cheers from the audience.
Jiang Zuiyao had to admit that this man sang this play to the fullest, his voice was more delicate than that of a woman, and every look and every pinched orchid finger was so charming.
Shao Ziqing, who was sitting opposite, heard the sound and looked over, looked at Jiang Zuiyao in front of him and looked at the audience, humming the tune with relish, his eyes never moved away, although his face was expressionless, but the hand holding the teacup stopped on the table, looking out of his mind.
What does he care about?
After the song ended, the audience cheered again and again.
"Butterfly! One more song! ”
"Butterfly! You're so beautiful! ”
A man with a feminine name like Dieyi was praised for his beautiful appearance.
Hehe, it's a bit girly.
It's just that Dieyi on the stage didn't have a trace of embarrassment or shyness, and generously saluted the audience.
Jiang Zuiyao was dedicated to guarding against Shao Ziqing, where did she have the heart to listen to the opera, and she didn't like to listen to the babbling opera, but she didn't pay much attention to this drama.
At this time, someone handed a gong to Dieyi.
This is the habit of the theater, after the play is sung, someone will take the gong and go to the stage to ask for money.
It stands to reason that this kind of thing is done by the subordinates of the theater, after all, Dieyi is a pillar, so there is no need to bother to do these things, but today I don't know why, Dieyi actually stepped down from the stage in person.
Dieyi got down, and the audience under the stage couldn't sit still, and flocked to Dieyi, as if they had met some celebrity, and the broken silver in the gong was full after a while.
The lively scene made Jiang Zuiyao can't help but look down.
Suddenly, Dieyi raised her head casually, and suddenly met Jiang Zuiyao's eyes.
When Jiang Zuiyao really saw Dieyi's face, the whole person was shocked, it was a look of disbelief.
How could it be him?
