Chapter 60 The whole city knows
The first dance is already halfway through, but the climax of the performance of various instruments has just begun, and the sound of drums, pianos, and flutes is mixed in an orderly manner.
The female ministers and male ministers of the Great Qi Kingdom, at this time, there is no party affiliation, just like this, you look at me, I look at you, and then reach a consensus to blow and sing, and then secretly finish blowing the song of Beixingguo and pick up the song of their Great Qi Kingdom.
Nangong Changming at the bottom felt deeply played, because the tune had changed, and the old tune had ended, but no one wanted to stop, but directly transitioned to the new tune without panting.
At this time, does he continue to jump, or does he not jump?
Jump, it feels too humiliating, these ministers are obviously playing tricks on him. If you don't jump, you have a feeling of running away, and after thinking about it, you can only grit your teeth and continue to jump.
Nangong Changming's dancing skills are exquisite, he is very good at forest farm strain, he really wants to jump, he can cope with any rhythm and tune.
Li Qingqing saw that he was all from a thick and rough man, fighting to an elegant and light woman's dance steps, and switching between them to deal with it easily, Li Qingqing couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
In order to tease him, he deliberately jumped out and clapped when he knew that the other party was very unhappy, angry, and wanted to hit someone.
"Good! The dance steps of the prince are exquisite! ”
When Nangong Changming heard this, he almost folded his waist.
The prince of Dongping has always been low-key, but this time he saw his sister so aggressive, and he was worried that he couldn't get the gunpowder drawings, so he had to remind her carefully.
Li Qingqing obediently sat back and continued to eat and drink.
At this time, the banquet has been fully spread, all kinds of delicacies, pastries are readily available, the ministers play the performance, and the non-playing food and drink
Gongsun Fu took advantage of this to secretly go down the stairs, and ordered someone to put a mirror in the corner of the building, and the light of the mirror was reflected on the glass surface of the inn.
"It's so shocking, who is this person?"
"I know, I know! When the sedan chair of Beixingguo was carried over this morning, I saw the sedan curtain opened, and someone poked his head out of it, and I saw that the face was this person! ”
"You mean it's the prince of Beixingguo who is dancing?"
The crowd exploded, "Wow-this, this Ashes Eater Inn is really powerful, on the first day of opening, it not only attracted the empress, the ministers admired their faces, and even the prince of Beixing came to help." If I have the chance, I want to feel the feeling and touch some luxury! ”
The people were excited, their faces full of yearning.
Others yearn for it, too.
……
In the inn, the song is over, and the dance is over.
Nangong Changming came up panting, the empress instructed the palace people to help, Nangong Changming wanted to refuse, but he didn't refuse because of the rules.
The empress is also having fun today, and the ministers of the Great Qi Kingdom are also having fun, so everyone will eat and drink, and there will be no time to speak.
The ministers of Beixingguo's side had a dark face like something, and they were in no mood anyway, not to mention eating and drinking, and they didn't move a few chopsticks when the dishes almost came to their table.
The empress and the ministers of the Great Qi Kingdom were full of food and drink, and when they saw that they had nothing to say, they were ready to disperse.
"That's the end of today's feast. Dongping, Bo Taichang, the two of you settle down for the food and accommodation of the Beixing Mission! ”
Dongping and Bo Taichang stood up and respected yes.
The Minister of Beixingguo also got up.
The empress was supported by Gonggong Zhou and went down first.
The other ministers and the children of the emperor are in order.
Li Qingqing stood aside and watched them go downstairs, and then Mama Zhang and Shen escorts continued to see each other downstairs.
After leaving the inn, the Praetorian Guards retreated, the empress got into the sedan chair, and the other ministers also got into the sedan chair and went back in their respective directions.
Later, the Beixingguo delegation went downstairs and Nangong Changming came down one after another.
Nangong Changming walked past Li Qingqing and glared at her, his eyes full of displeasure.
Li Qingqing met his displeased gaze and smiled like a peach blossom Feifei, "The prince walks slowly!" ”
Nangong Changming sighed lightly, and when he walked by, he seemed unwilling and sad to mention, "You have changed!" ”
Li Qingqing did not answer.
"Your Highness......" Mama Zhang came up from downstairs, looked at the scene just now, and stopped talking.
Li Qingqing smiled at him, saying that he was fine.
Mama Zhang was relieved, thinking that Her Highness should have come out of the shadow of the past, otherwise she would not have been eye-to-eyed with Mr. Gongsun just now, maybe she was too worried about His Highness and was too worried.
"If it's okay, I'll go back first, and I'll leave everything in the store to you."
Mama Zhang nodded, and asked Ren Lingshan to send it by the way.
Li Qingqing waved her hand and refused, and Mama Zhang didn't say much.
Ren Lingshan, Ren Fei, Mr. Wei Li and others all saw Li Qingqing's hatred for Nangong Changming, and they also saw it, the two of them definitely knew each other, and Mama Zhang and Shen Huwei definitely knew.
Taking advantage of Li Qingqing's absence, they surrounded Mama Zhang and Shen Huwei and forced them to tell the secret.
Mama Zhang and Shen Huwei were originally reluctant to obey, but when they thought of today's incident, many court officials would guess it, so it seemed that there was no need to hide it, so they decided to make a long story short.
Mama Zhang said as she recalled......
First meeting
He scratched his head on the stage, "Su San left Hongdong County and will come to ...... in front of the street"
She applauded from the audience, "Mama Zhang, look at the reward!" ”
Mama Zhang walked to the back of the stage and gave the troupe a big piece of silver, "The first half of this is given to you by my master, and half is given to the one on the stage." ”
"Good, good, thank you!" The troupe owner took the silver with a smile.
In front of the stage, he had already sung the curtain call.
Her eyes kept chasing him.
A bully came in to make trouble and dragged him from the backstage to the front desk.
She ordered Mama Zhang to go up and beat her up.
He thanked him again and again, and she was full of joy.
……
See you again
He was at ease in her house.
She was intoxicated in his leisure.
Mama Zhang was secretly observing.
After a long time, the two complained to each other. She sympathized with his plight and felt that the two were connected by the same fate, so she fell in love and resolutely said, "From now on, I will give you light and hope!" ”
Mama Zhang secretly shook her head and sighed, Your Highness, you are not love, but pity.
……
Under the clear moonlight, the surrounding street scenery looks particularly beautiful.
The evening breeze blows on the body, not feeling cold, but a little quiet, as if blowing away everything in the heart.
Li Qingqing suddenly understood that perhaps, she didn't love Nangong Changming at all, just because they were also bullied and not taken seriously, so she had a little more pity for him.
Or perhaps, she thought she was pitying Nangong Changming, but she didn't know that she had been pitying herself all along, and how much she wanted to protect him, how much she wanted to protect herself.
Perhaps, from beginning to end, what she wants to love and protect is herself, and Nangong Changming is just a microcosm of herself.
