Chapter 2: Dancing Dress

Previous Chapter

Luo Ying stood on the pavilion and called out to Yunlan, and when she saw her staggering, she said with a smile: "Why are no one chasing you so fast?" After speaking, he stuffed the fragrant lotus leaf glutinous rice cake in his hand into her hand, and said with a smile: "Eat it!" ”

Yunlan stood still leaning on the railing, talking to Luo Ying in his mouth, but his eyes drifted to the lotus pond, the lotus pond of the ink clear pond, but the thin figure that danced together was gone.

Yun Lan's eyes couldn't help but be dyed with a layer of dark shadows, and he still recalled the picture just now in his mind, his smile as light as the warm sun and his slender and moist eyebrows.

"Don't look at it, it's already gone!" Luo Ying pouted to express her dissatisfaction: "I finally helped you grab the glutinous rice cake, if you don't eat it, I'll be it!" ”

She has always been a favorite of bait.

Seeing through his heart, Yun Lan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and retorted in a low voice, but he didn't have much strength: "I didn't see it!" Don't talk nonsense! ”

"Hey, I'll tell you! I just heard from them that tonight the Lord is going to choose a dancing girl to give to King Gaoyang! Luo Ying pursed her beautiful eyebrows in distress: "Yunlan, you are the most beautiful, you said that the lord would not want to beat you, right?" ”

Hearing this, Yunlan let out a "chuckle" in her heart, her heart was like hanging a few buckets of water, and the pastries in her mouth also lost their taste, and her words seemed to be self-deception: "Won't it?" The Lord wouldn't do that, would he? ”

Her voice grew smaller and quieter, like a wisp of green smoke disappearing in the wind.

Luo Ying and Yun Lan couldn't help but be silent, because they both understood that in the depths of this luxurious courtyard, they were like birds raised by the lord, and they could never fly out.

On the night lanterns, there is a singing and dancing in the Qufu, and the moon shadow is fragrant. Qu Lian's servants prepared the highest standard "Qu Shui Liuzhen" to feast on King Gaoyang.

As the name suggests, "meandering water flows" is to open up a meandering water system in the pond garden, occasionally dotted with bowl lilies and tinlans, and beautiful maids kneel on the shore and put plates of exquisite dishes into the stream. Dishes flow down the stream, and guests sit on both sides of the stream and choose their favorite dishes.

The two banks of the stream are decorated with night pearls and Guangyuntai that shine day and night, and Guangyuntai is full of strange flowers and plants, all of which are precious varieties collected by Qulian'an from all over the country.

In the era of peace and prosperity, Kyoto's officials and wealthy gentry also cultivated various strange hobbies. Qu Lian'an's hobby is to collect exotic flowers and plants. Today, the saint also gave him the nickname of "Cyclad in the Clouds". Since then, Qu Lian'an has regarded himself as a "fairy in the clouds".

He was in a high position at a young age, handsome and talented, and was deeply appreciated by the saints, and was a hot and powerful figure in Kyoto.

And the King of Gaoyang, whom he feasted today, is the fourth son of the saint today, and it is rumored that the King of Gaoyang has a stunning appearance and a proud talent.

On the day of King Goyo's birth, all the peonies in Kyoto Castle were in full swing. The people of Kyoto say that the prince is the reincarnation of the god of flowers, and the birth of the prince is an auspicious omen.

As a result, the saint was extremely fond of King Gaoyang, and regarded it as the love of the East Palace, and when he was five years old, he made an exception to the king and divided the fiefdom, so that King Gaoyang's personality was wild and uninhibited. When he became an adult, he married the daughter of Xiangguo and was powerful.

The wine was slightly drunk, the wind warmed up, and King Gaoyang opened his clothes, revealing the snow-white texture of his chest. His long hair is slightly scattered, lazily held by a red rope, in the light and misty starlight, his handsome face is inlaid with a pair of soul-hooking peach blossom eyes, projecting a deep purple magnificent light, the corners of his eyes are slightly raised, the style is sultry, and his thin lips are lightly pursed, as if he is smiling but not smiling. The skin is better than snow and radiant.

A plate of delicate cherries floated on the clear stream, and the beautiful maid beside her played with the jade round fruit with her slender jade hands.

In the staggered room, a group of dancers entered the venue with long sleeves dancing to the beat of drums.

The dancers are dressed in flowing water yarns, soft as smoke silk satin sets off their delicate figures beautifully and hazy, in the candlelight flickering, the shadowy figures of the dancers are as touching as phantoms in the water.

The dancers danced in the clusters of nightshade, rising with the wind, the cloud sleeves flying, the flowers fragrant sleeves, the pretty face is like the moon, and the body is as light as a swallow.

Especially the woman who led the dance, she was dressed in a white veil, like a fairy in the clouds against the background of the moonlight, with a smile and a smile, and every movement was full of touching beauty.

It's Yunlan. I saw her feather coat rippling, with the soft body up and down, her dancing graceful and fluttering, like a delicate butterfly, passing by the water, stirring up ripples and stirring people's heartstrings.

At the end of the song, the dancers stand on the green lotus leaves, and the clouds stand on the pink lotus, fluttering, wading through the water, like fairies in the lotus, bright and clean and not allowed to be blasphemed.

King Gaoyang took the lead in applauding, and then, everyone also hurriedly applauded and cheered, and flattered Qu Lian'an: "The Qingyin Miao Dance in Lord Qu's Mansion really deserves its name!" ”

"Prizes, prizes!" Qu Lian'an was quite proud, and his face couldn't help but be full of joy and cheerfulness.

After the dance, Yunlan was about to take the women to retreat as usual, but unexpectedly, the voice of the lord suddenly came: "Yunlan, you come up." ”

Yun Lan looked up in surprise, but saw several young men in fancy clothes looking at her with meaningful eyes.

Her pretty face was hot, and she hesitated slightly, but she still walked onto Guangyuntai.

The maid handed her the gilt plate and motioned for her to bring the wine.

On Guangyun Terrace, the wine is half-drunk, the wind is warm, the red leans on the green, and the color is fragrant and warm.

Qu Lian'an motioned for Yunlan to kneel at the feet of King Gaoyang, and said with a smile: "This bottle of plum wine is the best product I brewed myself, open the bottle today, please enjoy the face of the prince." ”

King Gaoyang's slender and deep eyes fell on Yun Lan's body. He stretched out the handle of the jasper bone fan in his hand, slightly raised Yunlan's graceful chin, and looked at each other, what he saw was a pair of ruthless and indifferent eyes.

Her eyes were as cold as water, but they were as strong as spirits.

Qu Lian'an immediately understood King Gaoyang's intentions, and instructed Yunlan with a sneer: "Yunlan, quickly pour wine for the prince!" ”

Yunlan leaned over, the snow-white jade cup slowly bloomed in her hand, and the fragrance of the wine mixed with the fragrance of jasmine floated around.

"You drink first." His voice is low, but with a demagogic magnetism, which makes people want to listen to it again and again.

Yun Lan's gaze swept over his face, and then, she raised her eyebrows, and then raised her sleeves, the wine glass had bottomed out.

Fate has been decided, and the full moon is hard to find. She smiled wriekingly, with tears in her eyes.

Yunlan returned to her residence, and Luo Ying jumped out of nowhere: "Yunlan, you're back!" With that, she grabbed her arm eagerly.
