The proud concubine spoils the foolish king

Chapter 70 The Peacock Dance of the Birthday Banquet

"The servant is not very clear."

"Destroy it." After thinking for a while, Jimo Hui was right.

With Jimo Hui's approval, Eunuch Lian gestured to the maids who stood by and served, and all the maids extinguished the candles around the banquet hall, and the banquet hall was instantly plunged into darkness.Those with better night vision could see a few court ladies pushing a cuboid composed of four screens towards the center of the banquet hall.Place the cuboid in the open space for performances in the middle of the banquet hall, and then you can see inside the cuboid, candles light up one by one, and a figure appears on the four screens.

Everything was ready, the musician not far away took a deep breath, and played the piece that had only been practiced for a quarter of an hour.

Thinking of the melodious music, the figure on the screen moved accordingly, and this movement surprised everyone.

"This... is this a peacock?" The knowledgeable Zhong Shuling stared wide-eyed, looking at the shadows on the screen that were either nodding or stretching their legs, mouth shut.The peacock is a sacred object of a certain ethnic group in the southwestern part of Zhaori Kingdom, and he has only seen pictures of peacocks in books.Zhong Shuling was not familiar with this kind of creature. Even so, when he saw the shadow on the screen, he immediately thought of this kind of creature, and he could only think of this kind of creature.

"Peacock?" Among the officials, there were also some knowledgeable ones. After hearing what Zhong Shuling said, they thought about it carefully, and it was indeed very similar. "Indeed, this image is very similar to a peacock."

Jiang Ming didn't know how Mu Qingxu's dancing skills were, so Mu Qingxu's opening really surprised Jiang Ming.And Nangong Qiqi, who has a lot of research on dance, saw the "peacock" dancing flexibly on the screen, and knew how difficult it is to imitate an animal through a dance. She could even think of Mu Qingxu's movements behind the screen. how it's done.

The rhythm of the music became more and more cheerful, and the dancing of the peacock became more and more cheerful and flexible.Suddenly the soundtrack stopped, and a loud and high-pitched bird song soared into the sky. The peacock in the screen jumped up and jumped out from the top of the cuboid. At the same time, the original candle lights in the banquet hall were lit up again.

In the light as bright as day, Mu Qingxu was wearing a blue and green dance costume, with a peacock tail feather on her head, and the pattern on her skirt trousers was also a peacock's gorgeous tail feather.Mu Qingxu stretched her right hand straight up to imitate the head of a peacock, her chin raised slightly, and she stood proudly on the top of the screen.

The music started again, and the rhythm was more cheerful than before. With this cheerful rhythm, Mu Qingxu's steps changed, and she even danced on the upper beams of the four screens. The bells tied to her feet followed her feet. The dynamism of the music makes a tinkling sound, which is in harmony with the soundtrack, which has a special charm.

Jumping and jumping, Mu Qingxu caught a glimpse of her Xianggong with his head up and his face was tangled, and his right hand kept patting the back of his neck.Mu Qingxu smiled lightly, looked at the distance around, jumped up slightly, then stretched out her feet and kicked all the screens on all sides, and the person fluttered to the ground, and continued to dance in time.

Mu Qingxu came down, and everyone's eyes followed, but the eyes suddenly couldn't move halfway, and the head was raised for too long, and the neck became stiff.Not wanting to miss any wonderful moment, many people raised their hands and slapped themselves hard on the back of the neck, okay, it's normal.

The cheerful rhythm gradually became soothing, which was a signal for the tired bird to return to its nest. In line with the music, Mu Qingxu's movements became slower and slower, and the range of movements became smaller and smaller, until finally she lay down on the ground.

After the dance was over, Mu Qingxu jumped up immediately.She didn't want to lie on the ground foolishly and wait for everyone to come to their senses. Although the ground was covered with a red carpet, it was still cold.

"Okay! Haha, this daughter-in-law of mine is really talented!" His eyes changed and changed, and finally returned to calm, replaced by false joy, and Jimo Hui laughed heartily three times.

"Father is too much." Mu Qingxu stood still with her head down, making it hard to see her expression, "Father, please allow my daughter-in-law to change clothes." Anyway, if I stay here again, I will listen to your nonsense.

"Go."

When Mu Qingxu came back after changing her clothes, the banquet was still in the stage of presenting gifts, but it was almost time for the prince and princess to present presents.

"Qingxu, when did you learn that dance?" Qi Guanxi couldn't help being curious, and when Mu Qingxu came back, he forced Mu Qingxu to change places with Emperor Jimo Yun, and then started whispering.

"It was boring some time ago." Can I tell you that I learned it in my previous life?Of course not.

"Hey, what do you think the crown prince will give?" Seeing that there was only the last official presenting the gift, Qi Guanxi couldn't bear the loneliness again and began to harass Mu Qingxu.

"How do I know." I picked up a good piece of pork belly for Di, and watched him eat it with a smile.

"With the Shao family as the backing, it must be a big deal."

"The Shao family put a lot of thought into making a glazed coral some time ago."

"How do you know?" Just being Mu Qingxu can you know?No wonder she knows all about the products produced by the Shao family.

"The Buddha said, don't say it."

"You betrayed me." Qi Guanxi secretly kicked Mu Qingxu in dissatisfaction, but Mu Qingxu dodged it, and that kick landed on the table leg, "Hiss."

"Be careful, the table will hurt."

"..." Qi Guan Xi's mouth twitched.How did she make such a bad friend?

What Qi Guanxi wanted to know soon came to fruition.I saw Jimo Yunliu walking to the red carpet carrying a sandalwood plate. On the plate was an object more than one foot high, covered with a red cloth.

"I wish my father the present every year, every year the present." Lifting the red cloth, the wooden plate was indeed a glazed coral, and the seven colors blended together under the light, exuding a dreamlike light.

"This is?" There are not many colored glazes in this world, and Mu Qingxu spread the craftsmanship of colored glazes, so when he saw this rare object, Jimo Hui was in a good mood.

"This is glazed coral. My son asked the Shao family to specially make it. It is unique."

"Good! Good! Haha." The word unique undoubtedly pleased Jimo Hui again.

"It's as long as father likes it." Jimo Yunliu and Crown Princess Shao Qian looked at each other and smiled.
