Chapter 83: Two Dramas
Zhao Wang Song Xing died, and Queen Xiang fell ill because of this, not because of physical discomfort, but because of the sadness in his heart.
These days, the queen doesn't see Princess Xu Jinrou of Jin, because she doesn't want to see her and think of how aggrieved King Zhao's death is, but she still sees others.
Princess Zhao led Song Jian and Song Keqing to Wen Jing, and the crown princess Li Bilan and the crown prince Song Feng visited Tianshou Palace almost every day, especially after the crown princess came, she didn't want to leave, and served diligently in front of the bed.
The queen's body finally got better, and she could go to Tianshou Palace to walk around.
On this day, the crown princess specially asked the teacher to perform in Tianshou Palace, hoping that the queen could watch it happily and be in a better mood.
The teaching department of Da Chu was originally divided into thirteen colors according to the types of musical instruments and performances, but since Xiang Empress became the main minister, it has been reduced to seven colors, namely: big drum part, flute color, pipa color, zheng color, dance melody color, song board color, and miscellaneous drama color.
In order to congratulate the queen on her recovery, she specially organized and choreographed large-scale singing, dancing and burlesque performances for the queen to watch.
Before the opening of the song and dance, the crown prince Song Feng took the stage and presented a poem for the queen, called [Wanshou]
"The nine doors of the Frost Heaven Palace are opened, and the queen's longevity cup is presented. I wish you to pour the treasure temple and give the feast back to Xu Yanzhongtai. Lelian hundreds of mandarin ducks gathered, and the flowers covered thousands of officials were splendid. said that on this day with Linglun, he was drunk with Penglai. ”
After the queen nodded slightly, Song Feng announced that the performance began.
The first performance was the song and dance "Wanshou", with melodious drums and fluttering clothes on stage.
followed by the song and dance "Borderless", the energetic song and dance, and Luan Hui Fengzhu.
Watching the queen carefully, occasionally bowing slightly, she once composed music and lyrics in order to please the emperor, and she was also an expert in singing and dancing, and now she can hear the subtlety of the song and see the demeanor in the dance.
The queen was fascinated, and the crown princess and Jiaofang Cheng glanced at each other, with a smile in their eyes.
As long as the queen is satisfied, their efforts have not been in vain, and now that King Zhao is dead, King Jin is dead, and the queen's biological heirs are all withered.
In the next generation, Song Jian is still young, the child of Princess Jin has not yet been born, only the age of the crown prince Song Feng is the most suitable, and now there is no owner in the East Palace, as long as the queen is happy, the prince should be able to re-enter the East Palace, and everything in the future has become possible.
After the song and dance, there is the burlesque "Ballad Niang", which is a funny scene that occurs in the couple's lantern viewing, and there is no man in the teaching department, and the actor who plays the husband is naturally dressed as a woman.
The play was wonderful, the burden was constant, and the queen's gloomy face finally showed a smile, looking at it, she suddenly couldn't help laughing.
The queen's smile, as if the clouds were open and the moon was bright, and the hard-working people present could finally laugh together, and there was a peaceful atmosphere in Tianshou Palace.
The crown princess and the teacher were overjoyed, and this effort was not in vain.
The queen had not closed her mouth since she had laughed, and she was still smiling until the end of the burlesque performance.
The queen nodded at Li Biqing, who hurriedly came to the queen and bowed to the ground, "Queen Mother, what do you command?" ”
The queen's face was soothing, "Jiaofang Cheng, did you compose the music and lyrics for today's dance music?" ”
Li Biqing nodded, "Back to the queen, today's songs, lyrics, dances, and music are indeed composed by ministers." ”
"Well, that's good." The queen showed a look of approval, "It's not much worse than the mourning family back then, and I will reward the teaching workshop with two hundred taels of silver, and I will do my best in the future." ”
Li Biqing kowtowed to the ground, "Thank you to the queen, long live the queen." ”
"Excuse me, this long-lived word mourner doesn't want to hear it, the former emperor is called like this every day, but what? Don't say long live, I haven't touched it at a hundred years old. ”
Li Biqing kowtowed again, "Yes, the minister knows that he is wrong." ”
"Hey, it's not a mistake, you're used to calling it that, this burlesque is really good today, go and call those two people, and the mourning family will give them a reward in person."
Li Biqing's face was overjoyed, "For the ministers to obey the order, for the ministers to thank the queen for them first." ”
Two burlesque actors soon came to the queen, and both of them fell to their knees,
"Slave Feng is good",
"Slave Wu Qingqing",
"Meet the queen mother, I wish the queen a long life and good health."
The queen looked the two up and down, Feng Haohao played the wife, and Wu Qingqing played the husband.
"Well..., the two of you acted well today, especially Wu Qingqing, who dressed as a man, but she was vivid, and she played the role of three points, which made the mourning family feel happy, and they should be rewarded."
Wu Qingqing kowtowed, "Slave and maid, thank the queen." ”
The queen plucked a jade hairpin on her head, and took off a jade pendant hanging from her waist, and handed it to Mama Li.
"The hairpin will be rewarded to Feng Haohao, and the jade pendant will be rewarded to Wu Qingqing, if there is still a good show in the future, and the person who plays it has more charm, the mourning family will also have a heavy reward."
Wu Qingqing and Feng Haohao were flattered, and the two of them kowtowed to thank them, and accepted the reward sent by Mama Li with both hands.
Feng took a good look at Wu Qingqing, and then bowed upward, "Queen Mother, the slave maid still has some tricks for you to have fun and want to perform here, to thank the Queen Mother for her reward, um... Wu Qingqing won't be able to do this trick."
Li Biqing, who was kneeling on the side, frowned slightly, "Feng Haohao, you and Wu Qingqing play rival plays, you must be of the same mind, regardless of each other, you are so in order to compete for favor, regardless of your companions, but you shouldn't be." ”
Wu Qingqing's expression was a little gloomy, "Okay, you really shouldn't be like this, and I will definitely do what you know, how can you leave me behind." ”
Feng Haohao looked a little nervous, "How can you know what I do, this is what I have been practicing secretly, and today I finally have the opportunity to perform in front of the queen mother, so don't fight with me." ”
The queen's face sank, "Feng Hao, your mind is clear, but if you do this, leave your companions, and there will be a gap between you and her when you play husband and wife again in the future." In this way, no matter whether your trick Wu Qingqing will or not, the mourning family will watch the two of you perform together, if it is good, there will be a reward, if it is not good, this hairpin, the mourning family will have to take it back. ”
Wu Qingqing's face was overjoyed, "Okay, this is the will of the queen's mother, it is impossible for you to leave me." ”
Feng Hao sighed slightly, "The slave maid obeys the will of the queen's mother." ”
The queen bowed slightly, "That's right, the mourning family still wants to see the burlesque performed by the two of you in the future, I don't know what kind of juggling play you are going to play?" ”
Feng Hao plucked a hairpin from his head, which looked like a wooden hairpin, and then put the wooden hairpin and the jasper hairpin together,
"Queen Mother, the slave can turn these two hairpins into exactly the same in front of you."
The queen was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "This is just a quick trick, you should have the same hairpin in your hand, and then hide this hosta in a blinding way, and then take out two more hairpins, this is not a very trick." ”
Feng Hao shook his head, "The slave maid wants to turn the two hairpins into this hosta like the queen's mother's reward, and it is the same." ”
The queen was stunned, "Oh, if that's the case, it's a good means, you two come to the mourning family." ”
The two kowtowed, then got up and walked onto the platform where the queen was watching, and the guards stepped forward to carefully search the bodies of the two people, and made sure that they did not carry the murder weapon, so that the two came to the queen.
Less than five steps away from the queen, the two stopped,
Feng bowed down and said, "Please allow the queen to let the slave begin." ”
The queen glanced at the two hairpins in Feng Haohao's hand, "Okay, let's start, the mourning family is looking at it." ”
After saluting again, Feng Hao raised the hosta and the wooden hairpin together, then danced with his hands, chanted words, and then handed the hosta to Wu Qingqing and held it in his hand.
Feng Hao's eyes were shining, "Qingqing, you... But hold it well. ”
Wu Qingqing smiled, "Okay, don't worry, I will do what you know." ”
Feng Hao stopped talking, held the hairpin tightly in his hand, then closed his eyes, kept chattering in his mouth, suddenly his eyes opened, and he raised his hand holding the hairpin,
"Queen Mother, the slave has become better, please take a look."
The queen bowed, Feng Hao Hao clenched his fists, and slowly walked towards the queen, and the queen and all the people around were staring at Feng Haohao's clenched hand.
In front of the queen, Feng Hao slowly opened his palm, and the queen and Mama Li both stared at the palms with wide eyes.
Feng Hao slowly opened his palm, inside... It's empty, and there's nothing.
At the moment when the queen and Mama Li were shocked, Feng Haohao suddenly pounced on the queen, the cold light flashed in his hand, and the wooden hairpin appeared in the other hand, and the cold light at the tip of the hairpin turned out to be a sharp iron hairpin.
When Feng Hao Hao stabbed the queen in the throat with a hairpin, Wu Qingqing also suddenly rushed out and knocked away Mama Li, who was trying to protect the queen.
Caught off guard by the queen, her body leaned back suddenly, and the iron hairpin stabbed and inserted into her shoulder, but the queen flew up at the moment when she leaned back, and kicked Feng Haohao's chest hard, Feng Haohao screamed, and flew out with blood spurting from his mouth.
Xiang Queen's kick actually contains amazing strength, the queen is from a family of military generals, she knows martial arts, but no one knows about it.
Yan Gonggong's body rushed to the front like a ghost, and beat Wu Qingqing's body to roll and fall out with one palm, and the guards around him swarmed up, and soon Wu Qingqing and Feng Haohao turned into meat puree,
Wu Qingqing shouted before he died, "Okay, I don't regret it." ”
Feng Hao Hao couldn't speak with blood foaming in his mouth, just burst into tears.
The queen stood up and looked at Li Biqing with cold eyes, "Jiaofangcheng, what did you do?" ”
Li Biqing's frightened face was like earth, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed,
"The queen mother, I don't know for the minister, I don't know for the minister, this has nothing to do with the minister!"
Mama Li stepped forward to pull out the iron hairpin inserted into the shoulders for the queen to stop the bleeding and heal the wounds, and suddenly her face changed, "This hairpin is poisonous!" ”
