Chapter 121: Vanishing
Ordinary women may react shyly or worried when they hear this, but I only feel irritated.
The original plan was also going to run aground because of Xia Xiying's disappearance, could it be that it was in vain?
Thinking in my heart, Bei Yuliang suddenly patted me with his hand, and he pointed to the table in the banquet.
I saw three large drums being carried up, and the three women standing next to the drums were all dressed in exotic costumes with lute in their hands, with no clothing covering their waists and abdomen, only tassels and bells, and the small clothes on their upper bodies only covered the part of their chests.
They are barefoot, half-veiled, and full of seduction and mystery.
Because there are always some soft songs and dances in front of them, they attracted the attention of countless people as soon as they came on the stage.
"Dancing in the drums?" I was amazed that it was this dance that made me a 'big man' known to everyone in the palace.
Bei Yuliang also replied slowly, "At that time, the prince of Yuanyao gave you a unique name for this dance. ”
I've always called it a dance in the drum, and I don't know what this exotic prince thinks. "Oh? The emperor might as well talk about it. ”
"He said he wanted to name this dance - Allure Dance."
I burst out laughing, Prince Yuanyao doesn't know if he understands the Central Plains culture or has a soft spot for these two words, seeing a beautiful girl is a country and a city, and seeing a chic dance is also a country and a city, it really can't make people feel funny.
"Don't laugh." Bei Yuliang also pretended to be serious, and said: "The dance of the three of them is different from yours, and the blue is better than the blue." ”
Glancing at the pipa in their hands, I could probably guess that their dance was a mixture of the rebound pipa of the Yuanyao Kingdom dancer and my drum dance.
Sure enough, the rhythm of the music is thumping, and their skills in rebounding the pipa are also exquisite.
The three of them interacted back and forth on the drum, and a gorgeous flower rippled on the hem of their skirts.
The softness of the body is amazing.
I stuffed a sip of melon seeds, and was about to watch with great interest, when Liu Xia suddenly added a glass of wine.
Didn't she just let me drink? Looking up at her in doubt, the face he saw was Xia Xiying.
I was surprised and delighted, and all the unrest in my heart disappeared.
After the drum dance program ended, the atmosphere was lively.
"Your Majesty." Bei Yuliang also talked to Zuo Xiang, and I called softly.
He turned his head, the corners of his mouth still smiling, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
The concubine felt that this dress was too heavy, and so was this headdress, so the concubine wanted to change into light clothes and come back. Now the atmosphere is more lively, and no one will find out after the concubine leaves for a while. "I try to make myself appear sincere, Bei Yuliang is also very smart, his intelligence is no less than Beiyu Jinchen, so I have to be on guard.
"Okay." He nodded.
Liu Xia said: "Niangniang, your new clothes have been sent to the Longcheng Palace, and the meaning conveyed by the emperor before is that you can also live in the Longcheng Palace in the future." ”
I was stunned by this sentence, and Bei Yuliang also went to talk to people again, I really didn't want to bother.
I could only ask for help like Xia Xiying, she nodded, and I instantly understood what she meant.
"Then let's go."
quietly got up and left the table, but Liu Xia also followed.
"Liu Xia, it's rare to have such a good opportunity, why don't you stay at the palace banquet for a while, it's good to have Xia Xiying with you in the palace."
She shook her head shyly and followed with small steps. "The duty of a slave is to take care of the mother, how can she leave her post without permission."
"You're so faithful......"
She didn't understand the helplessness and irony of my words.
The Longcheng Hall is very close to the Taihe Palace, and after walking for a while, you will reach the door.
"Oops." I screamed, startling Liu Xia, who was walking in front. "There is a pair of bracelets in this palace that was given by the emperor, I want to bring them tonight, why don't I go back and get one."
Liu Xia said: "The slave and maid will go." ”
"You don't know where to put it, because it's too valuable, so the palace is in a place where it's hard to find. By the way, Liu Xia, this palace remembers that you are very interested in the color and style of clothing, so it is better to choose a suitable set of clothes for this palace in Longcheng Palace, and this palace will take a carriage over and come in a while. ”
"It's ......," she hesitated.
Xia Xiying snorted coldly and said, "Niangniang, this is valuing your talent, why are you so uninteresting." ”
"Slave Xie Niangniang, this is the way." She trotted all the way into the Longcheng Palace.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief and got into the carriage that Xia Xiying had prepared.
On the carriage were two pieces of coarse cloth and other belongings from ordinary people's homes.
I don't know how Xia Xiying did it, Jinyun Palace is really empty, and when I go in, it's so quiet that I can hear the needle when it lands.
I walked around and didn't see anything I wanted to take with me.
When I opened the drawer, it was actually the centrifugal buckle bracelet given to me by Beiyu Jinchen's nursing mother, which had been broken into several bracelets wrapped in soft cloth. Next to it was the Trick Pill he had asked me to take with him not long ago.
"Looking for this?" Xia Xiying took out the glazed hibiscus hairpin and shook it in front of my eyes.
I suddenly remembered that I had given her a reward.
"No, none of this stuff makes sense to me anymore." I changed into the clothes of the palace maid, and carried the dry food and coarse cloth people's clothes into the package.
"Then how did you bring the medicine he gave you?" She joked.
"He longed for me to die, saying that it was an antidote, but I am afraid it was poison. I just want to remind myself all the time about who should think and who shouldn't. ”
Xia Xiying sighed, "Even if it's poison, you are reluctant to throw it." ”
I was speechless and could only be silent.
She handed me the fire fold and said, "Have you really figured it out?" Leave this? Give up all the things that you have worked so, all the things that are already within reach? ”
"There is nothing at my fingertips, these efforts are the Dark Night Pavilion, for the sake of Liangxi, without these, what I do is meaningless in itself. What about you? Did you put down Kita Uryaya? ”
She laughed and I sounded like I was crying. "It doesn't matter if you can't let go, he never belonged to me."
The fire fold was thrown into the corner, and the fire mixed with the smell of fuel and burned vigorously.
The light of the fire was like the day Nata left.
The fire spread, and it consumed everything as it had been many years ago.
The smoke was thick, the flames were licking, and everything in Jinyun Palace was obscured by the dazzling light.
If you say that the person I am most sorry for in the palace should be Bei Yu Liangyi, I failed him.
I owe him something I can't pay off in my life.
"Let's go, the boat is ready." Xia Xiying pulled me away, and I heard the frightened voices of the palace people shouting in my ears.
I am finally leaving, and everything I am willing to give up and what I am reluctant will be extinguished with the fire......
