212 snake king
Shen Qingru quickly returned to the house. When the old lady saw her, she anxiously held her hand: "Why have you been there for so long? Haven't you met anything?"
Shen Qingru smiled and patted the old lady on the back of her hand. "Grandma, don't worry. I'm just stuffy for a moment. I just went out to get some air."
The old imperial concubine was relieved and looked behind her: "eh? Where's the servant girl following you?" Shen Qingru knew that the old imperial concubine asked Chu Qiao. She hesitated slightly and whispered, "I'll talk to you in detail when I go back".
Princess Xindu was relieved when she saw Shen Qingru and returned. While flirting with Wu San, she spoke to the prime minister's wife: "the songs and dances in the madam's house are too ordinary. They are much different from the singers in the palace."
With a smile, Mrs. Cheng, the imperial historian, said: "how dare the dancers in the despicable house compare with those in the princess house? I think all the singers in the Princess House must be excellent dancers..."
Princess Xindu couldn't hide her elation: "all the singers in the palace are gorgeous, but they are all beautiful people. The princess's house doesn't raise idle people. If you don't have skills, how can you make a living in our house?"
National beauty and heavenly fragrance, the wife of the imperial master, nods repeatedly: "it's natural. The beautiful people are beautiful and hard to get the royal highness of Princess 1/10000. The princess is a peony with a beautiful fragrance, but the singing are only wild flowers and wild weeds. How dare fireflies compete with the sun and the moon?"
Compared with the singer, the princess is not afraid of losing her identity. The old princess looked at Princess Xindu with disdain. Only illiterate grass bag like Princess Xindu would be happy to listen to this kind of flattery. She would have turned her face long ago if she had been a slightly smarter noble daughter.
"If I have the chance to see the songs and dances in the princess's house, I believe I will feast my eyes." the prime minister continued to boast.
Princess Xindu seemed to be flattered and comfortable. A smile appeared on her face: "since madam wants to see it, the palace will let them perform for her now."
"Ah?" the prime minister's wife looked silly: "the singers of the princess's house are now..."
"The singers in the palace always follow wherever the palace goes, so that they can perform for the palace anytime and anywhere." Princess Xindu casually explained, and immediately ordered her maid to pass on the singers in the princess's house.
Originally, the Royal historian Zhongcheng's house married his daughter-in-law, but now it has been turned into a song and dance performance by the princess of Xindu.
Princess Xindu has always been dissolute. It is said that the singers of the princess's family are often ordered to perform some erotic songs and dances for her... If those singers perform this in the imperial historian's Zhongcheng mansion, wouldn't they lose all the face of the Zhongcheng mansion? The prime minister's face was blue and white. It was obvious that she had suffered a loss.
A burst of sweet drum music remembered that a group of gorgeous beauties dressed in costumes came in and danced slowly with the singer's tune. The dance is the famous lotus picking dance in summer. The singers' voices are clear, the dancers' Lotus steps are slim, and the cloud sleeves are light and comfortable, bringing bursts of fragrance. The dance is intoxicating.
Mrs. Cheng, the imperial censor, was relieved. Fortunately, the dancers were not too exposed in their clothes, nor did they sing any obscene words and songs. A false alarm finally didn't embarrass her Zhongcheng house.
The old princess looked away and spat quietly: "what songs and dances are really decadent."
Shen Qingru listened to make complaints about the old woman's Tucao, and smiled lightly. Seeing the smile on Shen Qingru's face from a distance, Princess Xindu was angry for some reason. She pushed Wu San away with resentment, brushed the wine cup in front of her on the ground, and made a crisp jingle.
Not only was Wu San in front of her startled, but even the prime minister's wife showed a look of panic. I don't know why the good princess suddenly became angry. Princess Xindu's face sank: "it's these platitudes every time. Isn't there anything new?"
The singers fell to their knees and trembled. Who doesn't know the means of Princess Xindu. The princess's mind is changeable and her temperament is uncertain. The singers must change ways to innovate new dances and songs. If the singers in the house make her dissatisfied, they will break their hands and feet and drive out of the princess's house. The worst is to throw it directly into the pond to feed the fish.
Seeing that Princess Xindu's face became more and more ugly, she looked like she was going to kill the singers on the spot. Even the prime minister's wife dared not come forward to comfort her. The princess's maid hurriedly came forward and said, "princess, isn't there a new foreign dancer in our family? Why don't you let her dance for the princess?"
Princess Xindu's face was a little Ji, and she raised her chin slightly to signal her maidservant to pass. The singers kneeling on the ground were relieved.
"If you don't satisfy the palace, you will die with them." Princess Xindu glanced at the handmaid beside her.
No wonder Princess Xindu has such a bad reputation in the Turks. Shen Qingru couldn't help sighing. Empress Yan Ru is a rare smart role, and the Turkic emperor seems to have a deep mind. How could they give birth to a freak like Princess Xindu who has no brain and is abnormal?
"Princess, don't worry, this person's dance will satisfy the princess." the maid showed a cunning smile on her lips, and exchanged eyes with the princess of Xindu.
A silver haired woman with a high nose and deep eyes came slowly from the outside. Her appearance was very unusual. Her shiny silver hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall. Her eyes were as blue as sea water. She was only wrapped in a thin sari. Bright gold rings were hung on her hands and feet. When she walked, the gold rings knocked on each other and made a pleasant jingle.
This gorgeous beauty looks eye-catching and dances well. But compared with the dancers just now, her dance can only be said to be unique, but it is not as pleasing to the eyes as the dancers just now.
Shen Qingru looked at the enchanting silver haired dancer with a slender waist, and felt a strange feeling in her heart. Just now, Yan Ru Hede said to let her be careful. What is it?
After dancing for a while, the silver haired dancer suddenly put her thumb and index finger on her lips, pinched her lips and whistled gently. A small living creature stretched out of her golden belt and crept out of the silver haired dancer's waist.
"God, it's a snake!" someone exclaimed. It turned out that what climbed down from the silver haired dancer was a small green snake. At this time, it was holding its head high. Mung bean's small eyes scanned the crowd in the room, spitting bright red letters and hissing.
The silver haired dancer whistled again. I don't know where to drill out a few small snakes. She looked at the crowd with the same vigilance as the previous snake and hissed.
"Where did this snake come from?" even the calm old princess changed her face and asked.
The maid beside Princess Xindu explained with a smile, "don't worry about the old lady and ladies. This dance is called snake dance, which is the unique skill of foreign dancers. These snakes are not wild snakes, but artificially bred. They have been removed their poisonous teeth and won't hurt people. Ladies, just enjoy it."
Where have all the women's families here seen such an array? Seeing more and more snakes in the house, everyone was worried. The old imperial concubine pulled Shen Qingru in one hand and Xu Mingzhu in the other hand. She said quietly, "let's go first and make a mistake like Mrs. Cheng another day."
Instead, Princess Xindu said with a smile, "it's just a few snakes. Won't you be frightened by a few snakes without fangs?" she looked at the old lady intentionally or unintentionally. The old lady was born in a family and didn't want to be looked down upon by Princess Xindu. She bit her teeth and stared at the snakes and stood in front of the two granddaughters.
If there is an accident, she should also protect her two children and prevent Qingru and Mingzhu from being hurt at all.
The snakes whirled around the silver haired dancer as if they were dancing to the beat like her. As the music came to a climax, the snakes climbed onto the silver haired dancer's body and circled around her quickly. The largest one climbed up the silver haired dancer's neck and swayed gently with its tail and music, as if they were beating the beat. These snakes seemed to be very spiritual and originally frightening The scene gradually became wonderful. The women's family members who shrank and hid aside were attracted by the wonderful scene and couldn't help clapping their hands.
The silver haired dancer smiled when she heard the applause, and her body rotated more vigorously. The snakes wrapped around her also circled and danced. The louder the music was, the more urgent the silver haired dancer was. Just when the music reached the climax, the silver haired dancer suddenly gave a sad scream!
"Ah..." the silver haired dancer's body collapsed on the ground, her eyes turned white, and she lost her life in a moment. All the snakes coiled on her suddenly scattered and swam towards the women's dependents.
"Ah..." One of the closest female relatives screamed, as if she had been bitten by a snake. The old lady was also frightened, but she stood up straight in front of Shen Qingru and Xu Mingzhu. Xu Mingzhu turned pale and her hands and feet were scared soft. The snakes wandering in the guest table wandered wantonly, and the guests at the female relatives' table fled. The scene was very chaotic. Shen Qingru and Zhao Mingzhu helped the old lady The imperial concubine hid behind, but she was still scattered by the crowd.
Shen Qingru seemed to feel something in her heart. Suddenly she looked up. A pair of green eyes were staring at her. It was the snake king wrapped around the silver haired dancer's neck just now.
The snake king hissed out the letter and quickly swam towards her. Seeing that it was only a few feet away from her, Shen Qingru suddenly pushed the old princess into Xu Mingzhu's arms and said in a high voice, "go find help!"
The chief bodyguard of the Regent's house is waiting outside. Now the only hope is to let the chief bodyguard come in and kill the snake king.
When the snake king missed, he also stepped back. His small green eyes twinkled with vicious light. It stood several feet high. Even if it had no poisonous teeth, as long as it was wrapped around people's neck, it could strangle people alive in just a few seconds.
