Chapter 47: The Assassination of Cining Palace (Second Update)

There are many banquet programs on the Holy Birthday Festival, and the young government supervisor invited the most eye-catching stage team of Jingzhao Deqing Class to sing in the palace Changyin Pavilion. In order to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday, the Deqing class also specially choreographed the scene of "Unwilling to Go to Guanyin", and the Queen Mother was extremely satisfied and happy when she heard it, and she was especially kind to the people of the Deqing class who came to Cining Palace today to receive the reward. Deqing class will bring another dance to celebrate the queen mother, I heard that the musician who played for this dance once sighed that this dance "should only be seen in heaven and on earth", so that ** concubines and Jingzhao women are looking forward to it, I want to see it.

Listening to the women in the crowd talking about the Deqing class, Shen Ning's mind flowed, these were all acquaintances, but he didn't expect to see them all in such a situation. At this time, they were all so young. Shen Ning looked at the most beautiful concubine in this **, Concubine Mu, and saw that the smile on her face was overwhelming, no wonder the emperor was so favored, just to live like a fish in water in **, but not just beautiful, Concubine Mu...... looked at Li Guifei again, saw that she was still as weak as Xia Hua, and smiled, she remembered very well that the reason why Li Guifei was named a concubine was that she had a meritorious role in saving the driver on the Holy Birthday Festival, she blocked the blade that stabbed the emperor with her weak body, and also injured her arm.

"The emperor has arrived at the ......" The high-pitched and protracted voice of the chamberlain sounded outside the gate of Cining Palace, interrupting the liveliness of Cining Palace, which was Emperor Changtai personally came to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday. **The concubines, all the wives, and the girls of all families got up and knelt down to greet the emperor, even Empress Jiang, all the same, only the Empress Dowager Gao was still sitting upright, waiting for the greetings of Emperor Changtai.

Emperor Changtai ordered everyone to get up, and he didn't look at them much, but walked straight to the Empress Dowager Gao, and said to her: "The emperor has congratulated the queen mother on her birthday, and I wish the queen mother a blessing like the longevity of the East China Sea than Nanshan, and the queen mother should enjoy the program prepared by the young eunuch today." "Emperor Changtai is almost sixty years old, with traces of time on his face, and he had relatives when he was young, and the problems that fell back then have appeared over the years, and his body is not very strong. On the contrary, it is the Empress Dowager Gao who has lived in the deep palace for a long time, sincerely worships the Buddha, and has a peaceful heart, although she is eighty years old, she does not look old, and the Emperor Changtai is not much younger than the Empress Dowager Gao. Emperor Changtai was very peaceful in front of the Empress Dowager Gao, and the majesty of the emperor was not very revealed, and he was saying these birthday words at the moment, as if ordinary people were celebrating his mother's birthday.

Mother and son are filial, and it is a birthday banquet, Empress Dowager Gao is very happy, and hurriedly beckoned Emperor Changtai to sit down beside her, saying that he didn't need to go to Cining Palace for a special trip, and invited him to watch the dance of the Deqing class together.

Originally, Emperor Changtai planned to come to Cining Palace to sit and leave, because there are still many women here. Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager Gao also invited him to watch the dance together, he thought about it for a while, and couldn't bear to brush off the interest of the Empress Dowager Gao, and just happened to watch this dance known as the Nine Heavens Feiyun, so he agreed, and ordered the chamberlain and the female official to wait on the side, and called the people of the Deqing class to come in.

The first to come was the main building of the Deqing class, Tsing Yi, who was a middle-aged man in his forties, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes. He thanked the Queen Mother for her reward, and congratulated the Queen Mother on her long life, and finally said that he had prepared a dance for the Queen Mother as a birthday gift. "This is an ancient dance specially created according to the ancient music score "Nine Heavens Flying Clouds", which has not yet been performed publicly, and is performed by eighteen girls with first-class dance skills, please enjoy it carefully." He stepped back to the side, and at this time, the eighteen girls were also arranged in a pre-dance lineup at the signal of the female officer, accompanied by quaint and celebratory music, and slowly walked in.

I saw that the eighteen were covered in a thin veil of smoke clouds like cicada wings, long to the ground, revealing green arm rings and waist rings, and the close-fitting clothes were faintly visible. Immediately, eighteen maidens danced, and I don't know how they did it, their bodies bent at incredible angles, their feet seemed to leave the ground, and they changed their positions up and down, left and right, and they showed a picture that seemed to be slowly ascending. The smoke and clouds are like a dreamlike drift with the wind, it is a picture of a lady soaring, the eighteen girls seem to be stretching in the wind, winding and rotating, with high-pitched and dreamy music, it seems to be a fairy beauty, the attitude is not delicate, but it is a thousand world feelings, it seems to take everyone to experience a process of ascending to the clouds. The pleasure of the wind, the mountains are undulating, and the smoke is swirling; The satisfaction of climbing on the clouds is comfortable, the auspicious clouds rise, and thousands of weather; Surprise attracted by the magnificence of the heavenly palace...... All show in front of everyone one by one, this ancient dance, this music, where is a dance, it is clearly a process of pursuing bliss, and it is a solemn song, in this style exhibition, in line with the Queen Mother's pursuit of Buddhism, this is the most suitable gift! Not only the wife and the queen mother, but even the emperor were attracted, and the focused and surprised eyes expressed the greatest praise.

At the end of the song, the dance was scattered, and the Queen Mother couldn't help but clap her hands and exclaim: "This is really the best congratulatory gift that the mourning family has received!" The emperor really has a heart! The Deqing class deserves to be the best team in Jingzhao! Come and get a reward! He instructed the female official to quickly prepare the reward items, and also prepared to give Lou Qingyi her unique sandalwood hand beads. Emperor Changtai was amazed, he didn't expect that the song and dance of "Nine Heavens Flying Clouds" was so shocking, he seemed to have seen the majestic and gorgeous Heavenly Palace, so he ordered Lou Qingyi and the eighteen girls to step forward, and he wanted to personally praise and reward them with the Queen Mother.

The eighteen girls slowly stepped forward, and when Concubine Mu and Concubine Li saw this scene, their hearts involuntarily raced, thinking of what was coming, and they were so nervous that they didn't even seem to be able to breathe well. Concubine Mu's beautiful face still had that alluring smile, as if she was rejoicing for these eighteen girls, but her pupils shrank slightly, and she moved the chair without a trace, looser away from the table, and closer to Emperor Changtai; Li Guifei's weak shoulders also straightened slightly, watching the eighteen girls gradually walk up to Emperor Changtai, their hands unconsciously twisting the handkerchief, and their feet were gently loosened, as if they were waiting for something. The eyes of everyone present were attracted by the eighteen girls, and no one saw the movements of Concubine Mu and Li Guifei, including themselves, who did not notice that the other party was anything unusual.

"This dance is so amazing, the mourning family loves it! Ascension to Bliss, who came up with the idea? Empress Dowager Gao was still shocked by the dance, and asked this sentence with yearning.

After hearing the Queen Mother's question, one of the eighteen girls stood up. Wearing the long veil of smoke clouds, she walked up to the Queen Mother and Emperor Changtai, knelt down respectfully, and replied that it was the slave maid, and made a gesture of listening.

Emperor Changtai nodded with satisfaction, and was about to say something, but at this time, a sudden change was born! I saw that the kneeling girl stood up suddenly, her eyes showed a fierce light, and the long smoke cloud yarn was wrapped, and she actually pulled out a sword from it! The girl stabbed towards Emperor Changtai quickly, and did not speak, and the fierceness of her movements frightened Emperor Changtai to retreat, and exclaimed loudly: "Escort and escort!" Immediately afterwards, an attendant rushed to Emperor Changtai, blocked the deadly sword for him, and earned a little time for Emperor Changtai to retreat.

Among the group of girls, several of them also drew their swords from the smoke cloud veil, and followed the previous girl to rush towards Emperor Changtai. All of them are murderous and strong in martial arts, and within a few moments, the group of attendants who were blocking in front of Emperor Changtai were assassinated and fell down one after another, and only a few attendants were left to escort Emperor Changtai and run back.

Empress Jiang and the crown princess protected the queen mother, and quickly retreated to the gate of Cining Palace, the hairpins fell off, and the clothes were messy, but they couldn't care about it, and rushed to the gate of Cining Palace at a speed that they had never done in their lives, and shouted in their mouths: "There are assassins, there are assassins......"

Everyone in Cining Palace also reacted at this time, and after reacting, they exclaimed loudly, panicked, and fled in all directions, avoiding those assassins, and wanted to stay away from the assassins. In this way, he accidentally tripped over others and knocked down the table all at once, and the scene was a mess. Shen Yu held Shen Ning's hand tightly and followed everyone to the palace gate, Shen Ning followed Shen Yu to squeeze between everyone, and she didn't have time to look back, but she knew that there would be someone who was different from them, not to run to the Cining Palace Gate, but to retreat and run towards Emperor Changtai.

Lou Qingyi was stupid by the change in front of him, how could it be? How could Xiao Zhao, the pillar of the Deqing class, assassinate the emperor? There are also those people who are good friends with Xiao Zhao, why are all their martial arts so strong? He didn't run with everyone, but stupidly said to himself, how could this be, how could this be, obviously he couldn't believe the scene in front of him, he was scared stupid!

Those girls with strong martial arts quickly killed all the attendants who stood in front of Emperor Changtai, and at this time, Emperor Changtai was about to run to the left door behind the lord of Cining Palace. Jin Wuwei hadn't arrived yet, and there were only a few attendants around him, and Emperor Changtai couldn't help but be shocked. He has never experienced such a dangerous moment in his life, even when he was in charge of Wenshan, there was no such critical time, and he could run out with a few steps! At this time, there was no one around Emperor Changtai, the girl didn't speak at all, smiled coldly at Emperor Changtai, raised her sword and stabbed at Emperor Changtai, that gaze was like looking at a dead person, Emperor Changtai was shocked by such a deathly eye, and couldn't even shout out for help.

Am I going to be buried here? Died at the hands of these girls? I'm the emperor, and I still haven't done that...... In the face of such a dead end, Emperor Changtai's mind wandered, and only the most primitive fear remained.
