Chapter 910: Blue Beard and Red Sleeves
Pregnant Qiao glanced at the front hall on the first floor with the red curtain hanging from the stands, and saw several small servants carrying an antique eight-fold screen on the high platform. The silk cloth screen of the folding screen is translucent, embroidered with gold and silver thread to embroider the pattern of a hundred birds and a phoenix, the flowers on it are colorful, and the finches are lifelike, as if the next moment, it is about to fly out of the screen, which makes people's eyes shine.
"Such a big battle makes people more and more curious about this red-sleeved girl. β
Hearing what Pregnant Qiao said, Luo Ying also turned her eyes to look at the high platform, and then, she pursed her lips lightly, and said with a disdainful expression: "It's just a prostitute, what's so good-looking, it's just a trick." β
Pregnant Qiao shook her head and said nothing, there is no distinction between high and low, no matter what kind of business she is engaged in, it is just a means to make a living in troubled times. She picked up the flask on the square table and poured herself a glass of wine, tilted her head and drank it down.
"Sister Pregnant is so interested, but drinking by herself is too boring. Xiao Man...... Uh, Ah Man is also coming to have a drink with my sister!" Xiao Man lifted his robe, sat down next to Pregnant Qiao, poured a glass of wine for herself and Pregnant Qiao, she picked up the wine glass and nodded to Pregnant Qiao, and also raised her head and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
After a few glasses of wine, Pregnant Qiao's face was slightly drunk, her eyes were hazy, and she was slightly drunk, but her nerves were highly tense, and her attention was all on a private stand not far from them, but it was a pity that the elegant grandstand laid a protective barrier, and her Tianyan Divine Power and Heavenly Ear Divine Power could not penetrate that layer of enchantment, and the person sitting in this elegant grandstand was the big man of the Demon Sect in Liu Sheng's mouth. If Pregnant Qiao guessed correctly, at this time, Ye Hong, the old gang leader of the Sanren Gang, and the people from the Wanling Chamber of Commerce should also be in this private stand, I don't know what these people are planning when they get together.
The Demon Lord and the Eight Great King Kongs are already difficult enough to deal with, if you add the people of the Sanren Gang and the Ten Thousand Souls Chamber of Commerce, the result is unimaginable...... Suddenly, the corner of her right eye jumped, and she thought of the worst possibility, that is, the Demon Lord had already known the news that she had six fragments of the Qiankun Ancient Ding, and also knew that she would come to the Lava Demon City, so he had already ordered someone to lay a net, just waiting for the fish to take the bait! A trace of cold sweat slowly flowed down the tip of her eyebrows, and she took out a square handkerchief and gently wiped the beads of sweat on her forehead.
"Bell, bell, bellβ"
The gong struck three times, and the room fell silent.
These three gongs woke up Pregnant Qiao's wine, and the chaotic mood slowly calmed down. As the saying goes, "the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth", since she is here, there is nothing to fear, it's a big deal to fight with the people of the Demon Sect!
Suddenly, I heard a sound of pipa sonorous sound, earnest, lingering, rhythmic, and reverberatory. Pregnant Qiao was attracted by the sound of the piano, stared at the high platform, and saw the shadow of a woman reflected on the eight folding screens, the woman had a high bun, the pipa in her hand rebounded, held high above her head, and danced slowly with the sound of the piano. The screen reflects a series of graceful dances, with fluttering cloud sleeves and slender waists, shuttling among the flowers, like a butterfly dancing, and like a delicate flower swaying in the wind.
Everyone in the audience, like Pregnant Qiao, was first attracted by the sound of the piano, and then saw the moving figure of the woman on the eight folding screens, and they were so moved that they burst into tears and applauded loudly.
The sound of the piano gradually accelerated, noisy and cut, as crisp and pleasant as a jade bead falling on a plate, and the woman's movements also increased, her gait was light, her body was as light as a swallow, sometimes like a dragon playing in the water, sometimes like a phoenix soaring for nine days...... The dance is smart and beautiful, and it is amazing to applaud!
The music stopped dancing, but the audience was silent, and everyone was still immersed in the beautiful sound of the piano and couldn't extricate themselves, as if everything they had just experienced was just an unreal illusion.
"Bang, bang, bangβ"
I don't know who took the lead and slapped his palms a few times, and then, there was a thunderous applause in the venue.
A woman slowly walked out from behind the folding screen with a pipa in hand, and the room was quiet again. Everyone looked at the woman intently, and saw that she was wearing a pale pink emerald smoke shirt and a white gauze shawl on the outside, and she walked with her clothes fluttering and calm. A black jade-like green silk is turned into a gorgeous moon-worshipping bun, with a few pale pink silk flowers obliquely inserted on it, and there is a little more dusty temperament in the elegance. The woman moved to the front of the stage lightly, her eyebrows frowned, staring at the spectators in the audience, her lips opened slightly, and she said slowly: "The little girl with red sleeves is an ancient Fufeng clan......
As soon as Red Sleeves spoke, there was a hot burning sensation on Luo Ying's face, just now she looked down on this prostitute, but she didn't expect this prostitute to be her own clan.
The red-sleeved demeanor on the stage stood upright, and continued unhurriedly: "In the past, the women in the Qinglou hung their clothes, and they had to see which guest official offered a high reward of silver, and the financial transaction was very boring. Today, Red Sleeves should be ingenious, follow the example of the ancients, and use the sound of the piano to find a soulmate. The little girl comes to play a little song, and after playing the song, the guest officers can write down their hearts and present the ink incense, and the little girl will look at them one by one, and choose a destined person to spend the night with. β
After the red sleeves finished speaking, she held the pipa and sang, her voice was crisp and beautiful, like a warbler's cry, and the sound of the piano slowly came into everyone's ears, "It's only been a year, and when I first became cloudy, I learned to sing and dance." In front of the throne, the king and grandson made a promise. If you are idle and pay a smile, you will be lazy. is often only afraid, easy to change the flowers, and the time is wasted. It has been favored by the king, and it is good to be the main ...... flowers."
The red sleeves play with low eyebrows, and the sound of the piano is sonorous and heartbreaking. From her singing, Pregnant Qiao seems to hear the life of a fireworks woman. Just after the year of Xuan, he combed his temples and began to learn singing and dancing, even if he was talented, he could only wander between the kings and grandsons, for people's pastime, and spent his time in vain. It's a pity that women are like flowers, and the best times are fleeting, how she looks forward to having such a confidant appear and take her out of the sea of suffering......
Pregnant Qiao's eyes were slightly dark, and there were faint tears flashing in her eyes, her situation was so different from that of Red Sleeves, but both of them were full of helplessness and boredom with the current life. As a dusty woman, it is indeed admirable that Red Sleeves should show her heart so blatantly and have the courage to break the stereotypes and pursue her own happiness.
Unconsciously, the red sleeves on the stage were about to finish singing a little song, and the mist in her eyes disappeared in a blink of an eye, she raised her head and looked at the people in the audience, and said word by word: "Forever abandoned, fireworks companion." Exempt people from seeing concubines, morning clouds and twilight rain. β
At the end of the song, the audience applauded thunderously. Some people didn't even hear what Red Sleeves was singing, they just felt that the tune of this piece was tactful and melodious, and it had a unique charm that made people want to stop. There are also some sons who boast of a bit of talent, holding a pen and ink in a big book, writing a bunch of sour words, and ordering someone to present them to Red Sleeves.
