Chapter 30: Dance
The dinner was very lively, Tuoba Chen was also full of interest, the Kabuki in the hall was graceful, at this time He Xi heard the palace maid beside him, Zhao Ruxue: "Little master, I think these people are not as delicate as the little master's phoenix." If Your Majesty sees it, you will promise to praise the little master. β
Zhao Ruxue is good at dancing she knows, but she didn't know that she would dance the phoenix, this song once came from southern Xinjiang, I heard that a famous singer jumped at a banquet, since then it was shocking, and was imitated by people all over the world, but no one has ever been able to dance like that singer as peerless.
He Xi tilted her head slightly, and only then did she notice that although Zhao Ruxue was dressed very low-key and introverted today, which was very suitable for her beauty, her dress was hidden.
It is not like the hundred butterfly brocade thin skirt in the Hehuan Hall before, but it has the same effect, the goose yellow dress is only tied with a light purple belt, soft and elegant, but the skirt is faintly revealing seven colors of brilliance, like a rainbow.
He Xi lowered his eyes, looking at the crisp fruit wine in the wine glass, the sweet and sour aroma on the tip of his nose, and his heart became more and more boring and boring.
Sure enough, the song in the hall ended, everyone applauded, and Tuoba Chen said to Tuoba Yue with a smile: "Seventh brother likes it?" β
Tuoba Yue's eyes were lazy at this time, and there was a slight flush on her cheeks, which seemed to be a little drunk, and her expression was more casual, and she looked more and more bewitching.
is obviously a man, but he is so beautiful and moving, he has to make people feel the injustice of creation.
"It's good if the royal brother likes it, but in the eyes of the younger brother, although this dance is elegant, it is too mediocre and boring." The tone did not hide the sense of boredom in the slightest.
Tuoba Chen's expression changed slightly, and the smile that was still bright just now froze in the bottom of his eyes, and was slowly swallowed up by the anger that gradually poured out little by little, Lan Ruo saw this, and hurriedly stood up to play a round.
Lan Ruo was born charming and amorous, but today's dress is more and more dignified and beautiful, and she hides the slightest charm, at this time, she smiled gently and decently: "His Royal Highness King Xian was born in southern Xinjiang, and it is normal to look down on such a dance. β
Tuoba Yue adjusted his sitting posture and said slowly: "This is indeed the case, but it is extremely difficult for this phoenix to seek the phoenix, even if it is this song, it is very difficult to master, Qin Se and Ming, the two must complement each other." β
After getting Tuoba Yue's affirmation, Lan Ruo fell into a trace of thought, and her eyes couldn't help but look at the remote corner of the hall, Zhao Ruxue's eyes were a little excited at this time, and she was eager to try.
Seeing Zhao Ruxue's behavior, Lan Ruo had confidence in her heart, she whispered softly to Tuoba Chen, Tuoba Chen's face looked a little interested: "I don't know that there are still such people in the harem?" β
As if amused by Tuoba Chen's expression, Lan Ruo's beautiful eyes were slightly fascinated, and her calm face seemed to have a slight ripple, which was beautiful.
"What is this that Your Majesty is saying? Zhao Meiren is good at dancing, but everyone knows that Su Rili's figure, the concubines are envious when they see it, presumably this matter will not be difficult for her, why don't you let her try? Lan Ruo suggested softly.
Tuoba Chen pondered for a moment before he said: "But the song of the phoenix, I don't know if the musicians in the palace can play it?" β
Lan Ruo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said after a while: "The musicians in the palace have always been famous, and most of them are cold and atmospheric sounds. β
Tuoba Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "But since the queen has put forward such an opinion, she must have found someone who can be replaced, why don't you come and listen to it?" β
Lan Ruo was waiting for this sentence, and whispered a name. Tuoba Yue, who was sitting at the bottom of the house, paused for a moment playing with the jade cup, lowering his eyes and not knowing what he was thinking.
Instead, Tuoba Chen looked at a corner of the hall, the man was not concerned with himself, bowing his head and sipping the fruit wine in the cup, quiet like a plant.
After being silent for a long time, Tuoba Chen said aloud: "Since the seventh brother misses the graceful dance of southern Xinjiang, I heard that Zhao Meiren and Xi promised that one is good at dancing and the other is good at the piano, why don't the two concubines cooperate?" β
Zhao Ruxue seemed to have been waiting for such an opportunity for a long time, but He Xi was indeed a little shocked, raised her eyes, and looked at a pair of cold and quiet eyes, with a triumphant smile on the corner of her mouth, and the head of the nine-tailed phoenix hairpin was held high, like a proud peacock.
But after the commandment, He Xi had no choice but to get up slowly, follow Zhao Ruxue's steps, and walk to the palace to receive the order.
The two of them went one after the other, and He Xi heard that Zhao Ruxue said with some disdain: "I don't know if your Shanqin is true or not, you'd better not drag me back, you and I can't get out of the way if you lose your honor in front of the palace." β
He Xi didn't answer, she thought about Lan Ruo's intentions along the way, did she want to take this opportunity to beat herself?
There is no way to be exquisite, Tuoba Chen saw He Xi's face covered with a veil, and he also knew why, it must be that yesterday's injury was not good, a trace of pity flashed in his heart, and his tone couldn't help but be a little gentle, as if he melted the temperature of the warm sun outside the hall, and said to the two: "It is said that the phoenix seeks the phoenix, and the piano and dance need to be one, and the two concubines try their best to get better, no need to be far-fetched." β
The two of them received their wills one after another, Zhao Ruxue walked up to the center of the hall like a willow in the wind, those kabuki had long since faded, He Xi walked to the musician on the side, and thought of finding a xylophone casually, but Lan Ruo, who didn't want to be on the head, suddenly spoke: "Since I invited Xi to agree to play the piano, although Xi promised not to have a high position, but after all, it is also His Majesty's personal seal, how can you use the xylophone used by the musician casually?" Qiao'er, went to fetch the Yaoqin from the main palace. β
He Xi looked up, and was in a trance for a moment, Yaoqin?
Thinking of the phoenix-tailed yaoqin that his son once played under the tree, He Xi's fingertips on the strings trembled slightly.
Sure enough, when He Xi saw Qiao'er, he came in with a seven-string phoenix tail yaoqin with bone carving red sandalwood, first bowed, and then placed it in front of He Xi with the queen's consent.
He Xi tried not to focus on that Yaoqin, but said with a light smile: "The concubine is vulgar, how can she be worthy of this phoenix-tailed Yaoqin?" β
"Since the queen said that you should use it, you can use it." waved his hand indifferently, and Tuoba Chen's eyes seemed to be unconcerned.
When I closed my eyes, when I opened them, the look under my eyes was still gone.
Stretched out her hand and stroked the delicate bone carving on the Yaoqin, He Xi was surrounded by a thin layer of sadness, this qin, originally hers, on her tenth birthday, Mu Cheng looked for the world's famous generals, and built it for her with her own hands, the loving friction seemed to be able to touch her brother's body temperature.
Presumably, the Mu Wangfu family was copied, and this qin was taken by Lan Ruo and taken it for herself.
"Xi agreed, what's the matter? But do you recognize this piano? A slightly cool voice came down from above, and even with a little bit of inquiry, He Xi looked up and saw the suspicion in Lan Ruo's eyes.
Her heart sank, what did Lan Ruo mean by this? Could she ......
"Although I am in southern Xinjiang, Nell is a person who is proficient in music and rhythm, and has always liked to collect the world's famous pianos, this phoenix tail yaoqin is one of them, presumably Xi promised to see such a delicate instrument for the first time, I can't help but be stunned." A lazy voice remembers in the temple. There was even a hint of mockery in his voice.
Let He Xi react suddenly, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Let His Royal Highness King Xian smile, the concubine is from a humble background, and she can't help but lose her manners." β
Lan Ruo turned around He Xi with a suspicious expression, and saw that He Xi's expression was really a little embarrassed, and he let down his guard for a while.
Tuoba Yue really turned his face away, as if he didn't want to talk to a lowly person like He Xi again.
He Xi could only get up in embarrassment, simply adjusted the piano sound, and was ready, and then nodded at Zhao Ruxue in the hall, Zhao Ruxue had been waiting impatiently.
The piano sound and dance steps moved almost at the same time, Zhao Ruxue toe lightly, turned around, and then put herself on the ground, making the appearance of a phoenix crown with her bare hands, slender white fingers, slightly bent, waist back, seven-colored streamer skirt, at this time like a decadent flower, wrapping her in the middle, like a phoenix bird lying on the ground.
Gently pick and twist slowly, the sound of Ling Ling also flows out from the fingertips, the sound of this Yaoqin is beautiful, like the spring water under the eaves, gorgeous and colorful, it is a story with a little mythological color, at this time by the two, so interpreted, the piano sound is beautiful, the dance posture is beautiful, and people can't take their eyes off it for a while.
There is a beautiful woman who will never forget it. I don't see it for a day, and I think like crazy.
The phoenix soars, seeking the phoenix from all over the world. Helpless beauty, not on the east wall.
The piano will be used as a substitute for the language, and the conversation will be heartfelt. When I see Xu Xi one day, I am hesitant.
I am willing to match virtue and join hands. I shall not fly away, and I shall be destroyed.
Mournful lingering but not clichΓ©d, the more urgent the piano sound, it seems that a lover is eager to express his feelings, Zhao Ruxue's movements also follow the rhythm, like a frightening Hong, graceful like a dragon.
The skirt flies, as if using the body to describe a magnificent picture.
The sound slowed down, and it was already in the second half of the song, and it turned sharply, and it was a little sad and moving, and the low mourning was not lingering. He Xi's fingers were faintly aching, which is why Tuoba Yue said that it was difficult to play the music, and the rhythm was in harmony with each other, and there was a great change, if it could not be handled properly, it would make people feel a little abrupt.
At the end of the song, the last note of He Xi just rightly converged all the previous emotions, everything was calm, but it gave people infinite memories.
Zhao Ruxue also ended with an extremely beautiful action, a hearty song, and a dance that was shocking.
Bang Bang Bang!
Dressed in red, he clapped his hands and applauded: "I never thought that Zhao Meiren would have such attainments, the imperial brother is really glamorous." β
