Chapter 288: Act a play

Li Zhen nodded: "Smooth, Qianyun has pretended to be that dancing girl." Fortunately, Dongfang Yao knew that the dancing girl painted a portrait that was also very similar, and the mask made of bamboo shadow was no different, even if she looked closely, there was no flaw. ”

Ye Shuhua nodded reassuringly.

"And what's next for you?"

"I need you to go to the palace and play a play."

Ye Shuhua frowned, she went to act?

"Play what?"

That night, Li Shuo persuaded the queen to hold a family banquet on the grounds that she had not held a family banquet for a long time.

The emperor's health has also improved, and he is happy to hear that Li Shuo, who has always hated family banquets, took the initiative to ask for it.

As soon as I was happy in my heart, the complexion on my face was a little better.

That night, he brought the eldest prince and Li Wei, as well as the third prince and Li Yu, to the palace and participated in the family banquet.

The emperor and queen sat on the main seat, and on both sides, one left and one right, were Li Qi, Ye Shuhua, and the three princes Li Shuo.

After that, on both sides are the eldest prince and the eldest princess, as well as Li Wei, the three princes, the three princesses and Li Yu.

At the banquet, there was music and singing, and there was harmony.

The queen will also greet Ye Shuhua with a pleasant face.

Since the news of the inaction, the queen was worried that she might be negligent in taking the medicine, but after knowing it, her whole heart went directly into her stomach.

In this way, she is not worried about competing with her son for the throne behind this Li Zheng.

Without this threat, even with the disgust that Ye Shuhua had before, it can be regarded as joy from the heart.

Even the resentment that during the Chinese New Year, she suddenly fell ill and did not come to the palace to greet her, was also offset.

"Hua'er, eat more, you see that you are so thin, you are almost skinny. That tamales are very delicious and not greasy, you can try them quickly. ”

In the face of such enthusiastic care from the queen, she was really a little uncomfortable.

With a signature smile on his lips, he nodded, and said obediently: "Yes, Queen." ”

I clamped a piece of chopsticks and put it in my mouth, the meat was really tender, melted in my mouth, and it was not greasy at all.

She also wanted to make the queen happy, so she took a few bites and ate it.

The eldest prince and the third prince each had ghosts in their hearts, guessing what the purpose of this family banquet was.

But as usual, I watched the singing and dancing performance after eating.

Nothing special.

Li Zhen glanced at Ye Shuhua, Ye Shuhua took a sip of tea lightly, and looked at the dancer in the center.

Ye Shuhua spoke softly.

"Queen Mother, this is the dance of the palace dancers? The dance sleeves are light, the posture is soft, and the dance is like a shock, which is indeed good. ”

When the queen heard her words, she showed a little embarrassment on her face.

"Li is good at riding and shooting, if you talk about dancing, the dancers of Huaguo dance more beautifully."

Hearing this, Ye Shuhua also smiled and said humbly: "Where, I look at the dancers of the Li Kingdom dancing with a different flavor." It's just that the arm strength of the sleeve is softer, and the effect is better. ”

The emperor sitting on the upper seat listened to their conversation, his eyes fell on Ye Shuhua, and a smile flashed at the end of his eyes, and said: "Listening to the princess's words, the princess is quite proficient in dancing. ”

The queen smiled and answered: "The emperor's words are just joking Hua'er, Huaguo has always advocated that high-ranking nobles can also dance, and many complicated and good-looking dance steps are grinded out by those nobles." As a princess, Hua'er is naturally proficient in dance. ”

Ye Shuhua also smiled and agreed: "The queen praises falsely, but in Chinese customs, Hua'er has some research on dancing." It's just a pity that there are few jumps in the country of Li. ”

She added this sentence at the end.

There was also a look of regret on his face.

The emperor heard the meaning of her words, and said busily: "Although the customs of the Li country are like this, the nobles are not allowed to dance, but today is a family banquet, and there are no outsiders, if the princess wants to dance, I will also feast my eyes, why not!" ”

At tonight's family banquet, the emperor ate very happily, drank more, his face was red, and he smiled and waved his hand.

The emperor has spoken, and the people next to him will naturally not say anything.

Especially Li Wei, when he was doing the squirrel, he was surrounded by warblers singing and dancing, and he vomited when he saw it, and he was no longer interested in these.

Naturally, I wouldn't think that Ye Shuhua would be able to jump out of anything.

Ye Shuhua is respectful, it is better to obey his fate.

But she didn't let the dance partners match them, she just withdrew from them, and only borrowed a lute.

There was no band to play, and the fingers as thin as green onions began to pluck on the strings.

Just now, if those dancers were showing their posture and dancing with their sleeves, then Ye Shuhua was dancing in the air with the pipa in her hand and her body to paint a beautiful picture.

At this time, her dance steps are no longer simple dance steps, but the strokes in the hands of the painter, and every stroke of the pen is adding luster to the painting.

Under her fluctuations, the notes of the pipa seem to come alive, echoing in the ears, but it makes people naturally enter the world of this painting.

I also bring in all my emotions, and the notes seem to carry everyone's emotions.

It was in a hurry, and everyone was nervous.

It's slow, and everyone is soothing.

Soon the song ended, and the dance stopped.

There was silence.

Ye Shuhua returned the pipa, blessed slightly, and returned to the seat.

After this ordinary family banquet, everyone dispersed, but they were all amazed in their hearts.

The emperor and queen even sighed, a dance, they actually felt the excitement and surging mood when the Li Kingdom turned from the beginning of the decline to the current prosperous situation.

The eldest prince and the third prince were also shocked by the dance steps, they never thought that the feminine and soft dance steps could dance out of such a majestic posture, as if they were swallowing clouds.

And the one who felt the most was Li Wei.

Until Li Wei came out of the palace and returned to his bedroom, he was still reminiscing about that dance step.

This is different from any dance step he has seen in the country of Li, it is just looking at it can vent the emotions in his heart, and he can also express the indescribable emotions in his heart.

It was also the first time for him to think that watching dancing was such a great thing.

"Peng Qi!"

He shouted loudly.

Peng Qi hurriedly appeared in front of him, and arched his hand: "What does the prince command?" ”

"What kind of dance is the dance of the second imperial concubine today? DID YOU KNOW? ”

Peng Qi scratched his head, frowned and said, "Subordinate...... I don't know. ”

Li Wei raised his hand and hit him in the head, he knew that Peng Qi didn't know!

"Go, find out what kind of dance this is!"

But Peng Qi came back as soon as he left, and Li Wei looked at him with a wrinkled brow, "What else is there to fart!" ”

Peng Qi lowered his head and said, "This is a pipa dance." It was the counsellor who told his subordinates. ”

Li Wei raised her eyebrows, she actually knew?

I vaguely began to guess her identity.

But he didn't say anything, he still needed to use her at the moment, so naturally he couldn't control it so much.

Then he thought of that dance again, and his heart began to itch inexplicably.

I want to see the pipa dance again.

Suddenly, he remembered the Beirong Mansion.

Bei Rongjue likes singing and dancing the most, so he raised a group of the best dancers in Liyang City in the house.

"You go to Bei Rongjue and ask him, if any of his dancers can dance the pipa."

Bei Rongjue is his person, and the dancer in his hand is naturally more at ease than the one outside.

Peng Qi got the order and immediately retreated.

The news soon reached Liji's ears.

Li Zhen and Ye Shuhua were sitting in the house, sipping tea.

Ye Shuhua took a sip lightly and said, "Pipa Dance, are you sure Qianyun will?" ”

"She is from Li, and this pipa dance is still my own dance steps."

Li Zhen said with a flat expression: "She will." ”

put down the teacup again, and said in a clear voice: "Qianyun Pavilion has always been based on the Qinglou, and singing and dancing are the most basic elements that the people in the Qinglou must master, let alone Qianyun." ”

"Moreover, she is no less proficient in dance than you, pipa dance, just describe one or two to her, and she can dance seven or eight."

Ye Shuhua then understood, and said: "Your plan is to use pipa dance to attract Li Wei, so you told Qianyun before?" ”

Li Zhen nodded, smiled again, and said, "The lady is smart!" ”

Ye Shuhua glanced at him, with displeasure on her face, and said, "You saw the pipa dance she danced?" ”

Smelling the other party's displeasure, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course not!" I didn't watch it! ”

"I only watch the lady dance."

Ye Shuhua snorted and glanced at him: "It's best." ”

Things are going well.

Qianyun pretended to be a dancer, saying that she could dance the pipa, and was taken to the palace of the great prince on the second day.

It's just that Li Wei was very cautious, and only asked Qianyun to go to his courtyard with a pipa.

I didn't bring any extra dancers.

In this way, Qianyun had no chance to get out and find out who and where the strategist was.

But fortunately, for the first time, after she danced the pipa dance, she was deeply liked by Li Wei, so she agreed to bring a maid with her next time.

In this way, there are people who can cover up a thing or two.

The second time, she sneaked out of the latrine under the pretense of having an upset stomach, and secretly searched around the house, but found nothing.

Just as she was about to go back, she saw a man in a cloak disappear around a corner.

She guessed that the other party might be the strategist lurking beside Li Wei.

She quietly chased after her, but around the corner, it was a dead end.

It's just a wall, and there's no entrance.

She also clearly remembered that after the other party turned in, he didn't come out.

The other party disappeared out of thin air?

She thought to herself, and looked up at the sun again, it had been too long, and she had to go back.

I thought I'd come back and find out what's going on here.
