032. A dance in the city
After taking a seat, Ling Ran found that the young man opposite also brought a family member, and he was also dressed in white, with beautiful eyebrows, and could be called a Peugeot woman, but he was sitting there with his head slightly bowed and expressionless face all the time.
At this time, all the guests arrived, and it seemed that only the emperor and the queen were not present, and everyone began to talk about it.
"This sister, do you know who the white-clothed boy sitting across from us is?" Ling Yu inquired about a woman next to her.
Ling Ran immediately tilted his ears and listened.
"Oh, you mean the boy who also sat next to a girl in white?"
"Exactly. May I ask who he is? ”
"He is Bai Ling, the only son of Bai Yi, the emperor of the Yun Kingdom." The woman whispered to Ling Yu, but Ling Ran still heard it clearly.
Ling Ran's heart shook slightly, it turned out that he was the crown prince of a neighboring country······
Bai Ling Bai Ling, is this why he loves white clothes?
"Then the girl in white next to him is the crown princess of Yun Kingdom?"
"It's not clear, girl······ Alas. ”
Ling Ran listened and secretly looked at the woman next to Bai Ling, only to see that she was like a puppet, sitting there motionless all the time, and she didn't talk to Bai Ling, like a deaf and dumb person······
However, her musings were soon interrupted by a sudden silence.
Ling Ran raised his eyes, and as expected, it was because the emperor had arrived.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Zhong Aiqing is flat."
Then, Ling Ran listened to the emperor say a long period of kind words, hypnotizing like a leader's speech······
But just as she was about to go to meet Duke Zhou, the emperor's next sentence instantly sobered her up:
"Today, I also want to thank Bai Ling, the prince of Yunguo, and the princess ~ lord ~ Bai Qin for their faces, they have traveled thousands of miles, and it is not easy to ······"
Ling Ran glanced at the woman in white next to Bai Ling again, it turned out that she was Bai Qin Gong ~ Lord ~ , and the real person was as good as her name suggested······
Next, what the emperor said, Ling Ran didn't know, she thought to herself, fortunately she didn't set a table in front of her like Chu Yijun, otherwise she would have fallen asleep on the table.
His thoughts wandered, but a familiar sound of the guzheng drifted into Ling Ran's ear drum.
She looked up and couldn't help but be taken aback, only to see that the slightly plump woman sitting in front of the guzheng was not the No. 1 prostitute in the sky on the painting boat, Ruo Li?!
Later, a variety of dancing girls appeared.
But looking at their incomparably ladylike dance moves, Ling Ran sighed that he was bored, and he was about to close his eyes when he saw that he was sleepy, but he was touched by Chu Yijun's arm.
"Ran'er, it's your turn, don't embarrass the king."
Hearing this, Ling Ran was instantly sobered up with anger and glared at him:
"How dare you dislike it?!"
Chu Yijun smiled, "Don't dare, don't dare, Madam should really go to the waiting room." ”
Ling Ran snorted coldly, ignoring the jealous gaze that Ling Yu threw at her, stood up lightly from the tatami mat, and walked towards the screen in the corner.
Standing quietly in the screen, Ling Ran lowered his head slightly, and seriously went through the dance in his mind, but he didn't notice that three eyes were staring at her hotly at the moment.
"This girl, you can go on stage." Ruo Li suddenly smiled and tugged at Ling Ran's sleeve.
"Huh? Good! By the way, Miss Ruoli, I'll sing and dance later, can you please help me with some accompaniment? ”
"No problem." Ruo Li replied with a smile.
Ling Ran nodded, then took a deep breath and took the stage with a series of graceful whirling dance steps amid the thunderous applause of hundreds of people.
After a moment of frozen, Ling Ran sang and danced:
"The ink has entered the water, crossing a pool of blue and white flowers; Pick up five red glows, pick bamboo and go home, "I saw her long water sleeves flick off, and the dance steps slowly turned away, slender like a lotus flower slowly blooming."
"The wind comes, bury a mulberry hemp; Dressed in a robe, put down the acacia, "The beautiful eyes sparkled in the autumn season, swept towards Chu Yijun, and saw that his whole body trembled, and a pair of bottomless ink eyes were staring at her with some concentration, Ling Ran couldn't help but laugh more and more.
"Ten miles of peach blossoms, the years to be married; The pearl of the phoenix crown, pulled into the hair······" Ling Ran stood on tiptoe, moved his dance steps, smiled lightly and swept his water sleeve towards his three thousand green silks, squatted down elegantly, bowed his head shyly, but danced with his slender waist with the next lyrics, slowly rotated his head, and stood up.
"If you see the mountains and rivers in my heart, you can see them in your eyes, and I will pray one step at a time," he lightly raised his foot and split a standard vertical fork backwards, Ling Ran took advantage of the situation to wipe the back leg towards the ground in front of him, and it instantly turned elegantly into a horizontal fork, which was impressive.
The water sleeves slowly fell to the ground with her upper body leaning back, as light as a feather, elegant as a butterfly, but when the tips of the sleeves were about to fall to the ground, she swept the ground several times with her slender thighs, and her long water sleeves were regularly relaxed, and suddenly bloomed like an epiphany.
Everyone was stunned, and even the emperor, who was still talking happily with people just now, also fell on her dancing steps at this time, and couldn't take his eyes off it for a while.
“······ Fengyue flowers and birds, a smile on the dust, "In the midst of the singing, Ling Ran stood up gracefully again, while gently raising his legs backwards, he flicked his sleeves forward, and the moment when the city was smiling and smiling, the sun and moon were suddenly blank.
"If you see the mountains and rivers in my heart, you can see them in your eyes, and I will pray one step at a time," with a shallow tiptoe, Ling Ran raised his water sleeves and slowly rotated them, fluttering like a butterfly, and randomly chose a direction with more space to turn around, but he didn't want Bai Ling to sit at the end of that direction.
Facing Bai Ling's slightly burning gaze, Ling Ran smiled at him indifferently, and then danced towards him again, but when she turned around, her eyes flowed, but she suddenly found that there was a touch of other emotions in Chu Yijun's deep black eyes, but it seemed to be restrained again.
"How do you know that there is a piece of grass that floats, the years urge people to grow old, the wind and the moon, flowers and birds, and a smile on the dust."
The long water sleeves flicked upward, and the dance steps under Ling Ran's feet gradually changed unpredictably, dazzling, and everyone was so fascinated that they didn't even dare to pant loudly, for fear of breaking the beautiful dance posture that was rare to see once in their lives.
Suddenly, Ling Ran saw Chu Ningxiang having a white feather fan in her hand, so he cast a look at her.
Chu Ningxiang immediately understood, and hurriedly threw a fan at Ling Ran when she was about to sing the next sentence, and the beautiful feather fan just happened to fall into Ling Ran's hand impartially.
"How do you know that there is a piece of grass that floats, the years urge people to grow old, the wind and the moon, flowers and birds, and a smile on the dust." As soon as Ling Ran opened the folding fan, she slowly covered her face, and when the fan was over her chest, she gently lifted her skirt with one hand and opened the fan with the other, and slowly started the last big spin.
When the last word fell gently, her dance steps gradually stopped, and gradually froze on a difficult vertical fork, the tip of her nose extended in the direction of the feather fan in her hand, no matter from which angle, her posture and face were peerless beauty.
For a moment, the audience fell silent.
And immediately after, everyone stood up in unison and applauded fiercely for Ling Ran's stunning dancing skills!
The deafening applause did not stop.
Ling Ran slowly fell from the dance posture, and in the curtain call song of Ruo Li's tacit understanding, he lifted the hem of his skirt and bowed deeply in four directions.
During the bow, she occasionally met Chu Zijing and Bai Ling's gaze, and she smiled simply and generously.
But she didn't notice that a few maids were taking advantage of her curtain call to quietly fill everyone's cups with wine, and when she finished the curtain call, those maids slowly retreated and stood beside Queen An again, gently fanning her.
