It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

Chapter 41 Dance

After Zhao Chengjun left, the dancers dared to come up cautiously: “Miss Tang, was that King Jing just now?”

Teachers and students of Teacher Tang nodded irresponsibly: “It’s him.”

The dancers covered their mouths in astonishment, and babbled: “It turned out to be the prince. I have grown up so much and I have never seen a real royal family.”

“Shut up.” The leading dancer scolded, “The prince is gold and jade, can you talk about it?”

After finishing speaking, the leading dancer looked at Master Tang, with vigilance in her eyes: “Miss Tang, the dance that the prince said just now…is it true?”

“Of course.” Master Tang wanted to roll his eyes, but was afraid of spreading it out, so he could only endure the defamation of King Jing, and said with a look of admiration, “King Jing never made a joke. Whatever he said, he must accomplish something.”

“Ah…” There were voices of different sizes from the dancing girl, some were worried and some were pleasantly surprised. Master Tang looked at certain dancers eager to try the dance, and suddenly asked, “How long have you practiced dancing?”

“One month.”

Master Tang showed a look of despair, and asked, “How long have you cooperated with each other? How is the tacit understanding?”

The leading dancer said: “Ms. Tang, according to the junior sister who started the latest, we have been practicing dance together for two years.”

“Two years…” Master Tang’s eyes were dark, and the teachers and sisters who cooperated for two years still need to spend a month to practice this dance. The probability of Master Tang learning in a moment is really small.

Master Tang didn’t hold any hope, and asked, “Is your formation complicated? Is it possible to add a person temporarily?”

“This…” The dancers were embarrassed and shook their heads slightly, “I’m afraid this won’t work.”

Teacher Tang also felt it was impossible. She has run out of time, temporarily disrupting the formation will only make the situation worse. Master Tang looked at the leading dancer and said, “We are about the same size. Give me the dance clothes and I will dance for you. Don’t worry, you can’t do without you.”

Of course the leading dancer didn’t dare to refuse Master Tang, so she could only give up her clothes obediently. Regardless of her age or inferiority, Master Tang chose the most comfortable venue and immediately let the lead dancer teach her to dance. Everyone went into battle together, it can be counted as a quarter of an hour, and taught all the movements of Master Tang.

However, the time was still too rushed. After the Tang Master’s Academy, there was no time to rehearse with the team, and people came to the banquet hall. The **** who sent the letter stood at the door and said with a smile, “Miss Tang, it’s time for you to play.”

The **** came, which shows that this is the person sent by Zhao Chengjun. Master Tang knew that delaying time was hopeless, so he could only take a deep breath and smiled: “Here is here.”

Master Tang comforted herself in her heart, and she was naturally straight when the boat reached the bridge. Maybe she was talented and would not make mistakes without rehearsal.

The dancers danced the Dunhuang dance, dressed close to the body, brightly colored, with many bracelets on their hands, and masks on their faces, full of exotic style. Master Tang is a little grateful for the mask, but fortunately her face is covered. As long as Zhao Chengjun doesn’t say, no one knows that the person on the stage is Master Tang. Even if she jumps and smashes, she is only ashamed in front of King Jing.

Outside, she can still offer versatile, colorful and talented women’s designs.

After Lu Yufei returned to the banquet hall, there was a lot of thought. Today, she was originally set up for Zhou Shunhua. After she got started, she gave a lot of money and bought many subordinates. One of them came to inform her and said that she had found a letter under Zhou Shunhua’s bed.

Lu Yufei unfolded and found that someone had written it to Zhou Shunhua and asked her to meet in the garden. Lu Yufei remembered that these people were beauties sent from the palace. Zhou Shunhua had quite a background in the capital and was said to be the daughter of the government.

Lu Yufei took heart, imitating the format and handwriting of the letter, and wrote a new letter to Zhou Shunhua, asking her to meet in the side room of Yichun Pavilion at the moment of New Year’s Eve. Then, Lu Yufei asked him to stuff the letter under Zhou Shunhua’s bed, where it was.

Lu Yufei sent someone to stare at it, and sure enough, the letter disappeared the next day. Originally, Lu Yufei should report the incident immediately, but she was greedy, and she wanted to get rid of Zhou Shunhua forever.

A woman’s intuition is very terrible, and Lu Yufei has a hunch that she will regret Zhou Shunhua for a lifetime if she doesn’t get rid of Zhou Shunhua now.

Lu Yufei did not send his soldiers, pretending not to know about this, and still prepared for the New Year’s Eve banquet. Then when the banquet was about to start in the evening, Lu Yufei secretly informed Zhao Chengjun and Zhao Zixun. In order to prevent Zhao Zixun from being soft-hearted, she deliberately picked King Jing to say that when King Jing was present, that way, Zhao Zixun could not deliberately let Zhou Shunhua off.

For this reason, Lu Yufei specially arranged the location of the second floor, with screens installed around it, so that the people below could not see the whereabouts of King Jing. In fact, they have already moved to Yichun Pavilion, waiting for the rabbit that voluntarily bumped into it.

However, Lu Yufei did not expect that the person pushing the door was not Zhou Shunhua, but Tang Shishi. When she first saw Master Tang, Lu Yufei felt a little bit in her heart. She always thought Master Tang was from Zhao Chengjun and had already submitted to King Jing. Unexpectedly, it was not.

Wang Jing was so relieved to put such a person in his study?

Lu Yufei was shocked at the time. On the one hand, Lu Yufei felt that she had picked up the fine work for the palace, and she was a meritorious minister; on the other hand, she was worried that King Jing would be angry and anger her. After all, this kind of thing is not decent, Lu Yufei exposed it in front of everyone, I am afraid that King Jing can’t hold it on his face.

Who knows, King Jing was not angry at all, he even laughed when he saw Master Tang appeared. The ghost knew what he was laughing at. After that, King Jing unhurriedly grabbed the loopholes of Master Tang. It didn’t look like an interrogation, but rather… some kind of taste?

Lu Yufei walked back to the banquet hall with this strange association. After entering the door, Lu Yufei found that Zhou Shunhua had returned. She was sitting in her seat, watching the play engrossedly, as if she had been watching it for a long time. Lu Yufei stared at her coldly, and finally walked upstairs.

Lu Yufei knew that this round had been abandoned. This is obviously the best opportunity to eliminate Zhou Shunhua. Next time, it will be difficult to trap her again.

Lu Yufei sat on the second floor, absent-minded all the time. The babble on the stage was very lively, but she didn’t hear a word.

Lu Yufei discovered that she was paying attention to time unconsciously, and when she finally reached the second quarter of the sea, she unknowingly breathed a sigh of relief. Then Lu Yufei was surprised to find that not only her, Zhao Zixun, and even Zhao Chengjun, were all like this.

They are all waiting for this moment to come.

The lights on the stage dimmed, and the troupe removed the shelves and replaced them with red lanterns. The lanterns were dim and dim, and even the stage was half-bright and half-dark.

The people downstairs were surprised and asked: “What’s the matter? Why is the light suddenly dimmed?”

Zhao Chengjun tapped his fingers slowly on the desktop, smiling and waiting for the next good show.

Several women in colorful dance clothes came to the stage. Their costumes imitated the Dunhuang Feitian, with masks on their faces, and they couldn’t see how they looked. However, as soon as several people took the stage, Zhao Chengjun instantly focused on one person.

Not only him, other people also noticed this person more or less. It’s hard to say why, but in the crowd, there are some people who stand out from the crowd and have outstanding temperaments. Even without the appearance bonus, her figure is as good as ordinary people.

The drum beat began, and the dancers began to move, spinning slowly with the sound of the drum, making various gentle movements. Zhao Chengjun looked at the dance below and couldn’t help but laugh.

There is no problem with her movements, it is difficult for her to finish learning in a quarter of an hour. However, this dance seems to be different, and there is no coordination at all.

Zhao Chengjun tapped the edge of the table with his fingers one after another, his eyebrows stretched, he was obviously in a good mood. Lu Yufei retracted his gaze, and a deep fear suddenly grew in his heart.

Undoubtedly, King Jing was very different from Tang Shishi. It turned out that Lu Yufei thought that this difference was just the difference between men and slightly beautiful beauties, just like those concubine rooms of Lu Yufei’s father, no matter how spoiled, wait for the freshness to pass, after all, it is a gadget.

However, what I saw today completely shattered Lu Yufei’s cognition. She had never seen Zhao Chengjun and Master Tang get along before. Lu Yufei was preconceived and felt that Master Tang was nothing but a beautiful vase, which was still fresh now, so I just kept it. However, the facts made Lu Yufei stunned.

Lu Yufei suddenly flashed a terrible thought, what if Master Tang gave birth to King Jing’s heir? This thought shocked her. Lu Yufei immediately comforted herself. No, let’s not say that King Jing has raised Zhao Zixun for many years. He will never do anything to be abolished in the middle, but only talk about the identity of Master Tang, King Jing. She won’t let her give birth to heirs.

Lu Yufei thought wildly, she didn’t notice what was dancing in the second half of the dance, and the drum beat stopped. Lu Yufei returned to his senses and found that the dancers below had finished the dance and performed the final closing action. The woman in the middle didn’t know what was caught, and staggered.

Master Tang wanted to die at the time, she kept praying, and the people below must never recognize her. It was really shameful.

Master Tang performed the dance stiffly, not daring to move for a long time. She posed for a long time, but the top did not stop for a long time. Master Tang was a little surprised, and the female relatives downstairs also began to whisper: “What’s wrong?”

“What are they waiting for?”

Whispering, Liu Ji came down the stairs, put his hands in his hands, and smiled: “The prince saw this dance and found it very fresh. Who is the lead dancer, follow the old slave, and the prince has something to say.”

Master Tang stood up, ran down the steps quickly holding the skirt, and followed Liu Ji upstairs. Tang Shishi’s gorgeous skirt swept across the table, and the female relatives paused for a while, and suddenly realized something was wrong: “She seems to have not taken off her mask. Boldly, when you meet the prince, how dare you get a face mask?”

Master Tang pretended not to hear, and in the gap between the shouts below, Master Tang had already stepped into the second floor. After the screen was closed, Master Tang leaned far away in the corner, and didn’t want to face the people inside: “See the prince, the son, and the concubine.”

Zhao Chengjun looked at her and asked nonchalantly, “Wearing a mask when I saw her, did he want to assassinate?”

“Don’t dare.” Teacher Tang said quickly. Her voice passed through the mask, and she was a little angry, and she twisted for a while, reluctantly to take off the golden mask: “Lord.”

“This is the dance you carefully prepared? It’s no wonder that you have to go to a place where no one is going to practice. The level is really not high.” Zhao Chengjun said slowly, “All the performances on New Year’s Eve should be rewarded, but your dance is really bad, let alone rewards. , I can see it fine.”

“No.” Master Tang was taken aback, blurted out, with a face of disbelief, “I was kind, but I couldn’t ask for it, so I have to pay?”

“Yeah.” Zhao Chengjun nodded and said casually, “With this king, the rules are like this.”

Whether it is tolerable or unbearable, you can insult Master Tang, but you can’t ask her to pay. Tang Shishi was angry, and suddenly stepped forward, and immediately forced him to Zhao Chengjun’s side.

The guards and eunuchs behind him were alert for an instant, and Zhao Chengjun waved his hand to signal them not to move.

Master Tang grabbed Zhao Chengjun’s sword and suddenly drew it out. At this time, even Zhao Zixun couldn’t help getting tense, but Zhao Chengjun was still sitting steadily, watching Master Tang swiftly spinning a few times before retreating to a place five steps away.

Master Tang fixed his eyes on Zhao Chengjun and said, “Master, since you are not satisfied with the group dance just now, the little girl will offer you a dance alone.”

As Tang Master said, holding the saber in his right hand, he pulled a sword flower, and suddenly jumped from the spot. It was not the dance performed by Master Tang just now, it was done by dancers, and Master Tang was just imitating the original lead dancer. Now, it is Master Tang who is dancing.

She is slender, especially her legs are straight, thin and long, and her proportions look very comfortable. Her sword pose is clean, fast and powerful, but when she lowers her waist, her waist is soft and slender, full of feminine beauty.

There was no accompaniment, because the ring on her body was the best accompaniment. The bracelets on Master Tang’s arm and ankle collided back and forth, making a jingle. This sword dance is sometimes swift and slow, with both rigidity and softness. When she rotates, she is as light as a butterfly. When she stops, she can freeze in an instant. Throughout the whole process, Tang Shishi’s eyes are not evasive, and she always looks directly at Zhao Chengjun.

It is beautiful, but also provocative.

Towards the end, she leaped high and pointed at Zhao Chengjun with the tip of her sword. The guards and others had already secretly held the knife. Zhao Chengjun smiled slightly, without any evasion. In the middle of the journey, Master Tang suddenly turned and spun in the air. Feitian’s dress almost turned halo under the light. In the end, Master Tang landed on his toes, a beautiful finishing touch, and all his movements were stopped.

This sword dance consumes a lot of physical strength. Master Tang couldn’t help but panting slightly. There was silence in the attic, and only Master Tang’s gasping could be heard. After a while, Zhao Chengjun applauded first: “Okay.”

Master Tang seemed to be proud, but also to show off, deliberately asked: “Master, do you still have to pay a fine now?”

“Forget it, it’s a reward.” Zhao Chengjun said, and couldn’t help but laugh, “I haven’t seen you so motivated. A reward can force you to do this. Look at you for this.”
