Chapter Eighty-Eight: Acting and Dancing

The earthquake that occurred in Chang'an was very mysterious, and a crack in the ground that was several miles long from north to south was cracked in the Longshou Plain, but the impact in the city was very slight, only a little tremor was felt, and a few grass houses fell.

When Gu Zuo arrived at Longshouyuan, he was shocked by this crack, and the officials of the Tiantai of the First Cadre Division were busy here. After asking a few words, the warlocks were also confused, and only said that they needed to calculate further.

A young eunuch released a magic weapon flying sword, and the sword fell, ready to go down to measure. They also found a long rope, connected dozens of zhang long, and tied it to the young eunuch of Jindan cultivation in case of accidents.

Gu Zuo grabbed Si Tianjian Cheng and asked, "The Chang'an earthquake, can it be related to the palace?"

The prisoner was puzzled: "What does it have to do with the palace? In the past few years, earthquakes have occurred frequently in various states in the world, and this is the third time since last year, but it is the first time that the cracks have cracked in the ground, so let's take a look at it first." Xia Guan is also ready to go down, so he won't talk much to Changshi. ”

In view of the painful lesson of Gu Zuo's stabbing, this trip, there were a large number of people around him, there were four Jindan alone, Qiu Dabo was still curiously looking into the crack in the ground, looking at the posture and seemed to want to drill it, Xie Zhen reminded on the side: "Pavilion master, it's four o'clock." ”

In half an hour, the dance will start in the palace, according to Gu Zuo's plan, this is also the time to ask the Son of Heaven to abdicate, of course, before abdicating, he also wants to see what kind of name the Son of Heaven has added so many materials and made so many changes in the neon clothes and feather dance.

Gu Zuo returned to Chang'an City, walked straight to the palace, and entered through the Zuoyintai Gate. Gao Lishi, Chen Xuanli, Yang Guozhong, Fang Xuan, Yuan Zai, Ge Shuhan, etc. are all here, and more than ten civil and military ministers are all bowed down after seeing Gu Zuo.

Chen Xuanli stepped forward and said: "Further inward, it is the area of Qianniuwei, the neon dress and feather dance has not yet started, and we have not moved." Everyone was waiting here, for fear of alarming the inside. In the past few days, His Majesty has been on the island, and he has not taken a step, only the mother occasionally leaves, but she only supervises the line dance, and does not see outsiders. ”

Standing on the silver platform gate, you can also see the vast Taiye Pool, as well as the small island in the Taiye Pool, but it is very reluctant, a little farther away, and there are some palace cornices in the middle.

But Gu Zuo soon noticed that on the empty flat land on the west bank of the Taiye Pond, a group of musicians and maiko were arriving one after another.

Gao Lishi said: "It was originally a fairy palace, and some time ago it was demolished to the ground. Otherwise, Ouchi really can't find a place that can accommodate thousands of people dancing at the same time. ”

Gu Zuo nodded, looking at the crowd that was gathering from afar, and couldn't tell who was from the Xihe Road Pavilion. It was precisely because of the news that Ouchi had demolished the Immortal Palace for this dance that Gu Zuo set the date for his move tonight, not three days later, when the ministers were feasted.

Demolition of a palace for a dance rehearsal, who believes in it?

Gu Zuo said: "It's too far here, can it be closer?"

Gao Lishi thought for a moment and said, "I'll take you to Qinghui Pavilion, and the Qianniu guard on duty should not object." ”

So, everyone followed him down the left silver gate, straight into the big inside, on the way encountered two Qianniu Wei sergeant checkpoints, Gao Lishi perfunctory and changed his face, so he took everyone to successfully break through the level in a row, and went to the roof of Qinghui Pavilion.

It's no wonder that Sergeant Qianniuwei didn't dare to stop it, and it was difficult for anyone who looked at the vote behind Gao Lishi to have the heart to stop him.

Looking at it from this position, half of it was closer than just now, and the little yellow door fish went down to the hall and copied more than a dozen embroidery piers to let everyone sit down one by one.

At the end of the day, the huge dance array on the edge of the Taiye Pond was arranged, and a small boat was rowed out from the small island in the pond - Penglai Immortal Mountain, and there were only two people on the boat, one was the emperor of the Ming Emperor's robe, and the other was the concubine who was bright and beautiful.

The boat did not dock, but after a look at the shore of the lake, it returned to the center. When the golden drum sounded, the large array began to turn.

The dancers led by Li Twelve, Lin Suxian, He Xiaofan, etc., kicked off the prelude to the neon dress and feather dance with graceful dancing.

I have to admit that this dance, which was practiced by nearly 1,000 musicians and dancers, has a great visual impact, like a huge phoenix, just waking up from a deep sleep, is grooming its wings, its shape is lifelike, and its meaning is samadhi.

Everyone else was so fascinated that they almost forgot the true purpose of the trip. Only Gu Zuo's focus is not on the dance and the music itself, but on the formation and movement changes.

It is worthy of practicing for several months, and the core dancers, such as Li Twelve and others, have even practiced for several years, and the cooperation of all of them is almost perfect, except for the one point in the center of the big array.

The position of this point is the position of the concubine, she does not participate, this phoenix looks left and right, but does not fly.

After more than 30 changes were rehearsed, the whole dance set was nearly half an hour, and then there was a moment of rest.

The Son of Heaven on the boat whispered a few words to Niangniang, and Niangniang got off the boat and went ashore, summoned Li Twelve and the others back, and didn't know what she ordered. Li Twelve and the others returned to the arena and whispered to some dancers for a while, and then the formation was rearranged, ready to perform again.

And this time, Niangniang put on a phoenix robe with a skirt that dragged dozens of zhang long, and stood by the lake, which was extremely eye-catching, and she was really the first beauty in the world.

Even with Gu Zuo's eyes, the plumpness of the concubine does not feel that it is an eyesore, but it makes people reverie.

The dance of neon clothes and feathers is repeated, and when the third change is performed, Niangniang signals to the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven controls the boat and returns to Penglai Immortal Mountain. Abandoning the boat to climb the mountain, the Son of Heaven took steps, walked to the top of the mountain, walked a few steps, suddenly paused, and looked at the Qinghui Pavilion here.

Under the gaze of the Son of Heaven, everyone was in their hearts. Especially Gu Zuo, there is a feeling that his mind is being grabbed by someone.

A clear Qiang flute sounded, Niang Niang flew into the big array, with her joining, the whole dance array seemed to have a soul, very smart!

......

In the Qi Wang's house, the prince took a deep breath, plucked up Yu Yong, and entered with his head held high.

The head of the palace wanted to stop it, facing the prince and the hundred guests behind the prince, it was just a mantis arm as a car.

The prince went straight into the back house of the palace, left all the guests in the hall in front of the back house, cleaned up his clothes, and instructed the housekeeper of the palace: "Go to the palace quickly, there is something important to say to the uncle, and I can't afford to delay!"

The housekeeper smiled bitterly and said: "The prince already knows, and advises His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to withdraw his order in time and return to the East Palace." ”

The prince said: "The arrow is on the string, I have to send it, Uncle Fu Mingjian!"

The palace steward was helpless, and dissuaded "no", but he could only follow him, at a loss.

King Qi was on the music hall, and his face was not very good. Hearing that the prince had come to the hall, he asked to meet with a stiff neck, shook his head, and got up and walked out.

"Prince, why do you have to trouble me?"
