Dongdu Pavilion Case Record

This day, just after noon, Tang Wuyi had already urged Wen Tao to leave for Jinyuan quickly.Since Wen Tao came to Yangzhou, he has also become tired. He didn't get up as early as before. At this moment, he was stuffing his mouth full of Yangzhou's three-dimensional buns, his cheeks were bulging, and he said vaguely, "Didn't it start at Shenshi?"

"Taotao, today's performance is on the small island in the middle of the lake in Jinyuan. Seats are random around the lake, and there are not many places where you can see clearly. Except for a few people like King Qi who have special seats, other guests But you have to go early to get a good seat." Tang Wuyi explained while arranging the white jade hair crown.Today, he did not wear the Xuanyi of Dongdu Pavilion, but wore a brocade robe with red gold mottled pattern and a green jade belt like an ordinary son of aristocratic family, giving him a sense of wealth and nobility.

Wen Tao hastily agreed, stuffing another siu mai into his mouth while struggling to put on the magpie tail crown.

"Pay attention to your manners." Tang Wuyi stretched out his hand to help him tidy up and said, "This magpie tail crown can only be suppressed by a clean and dusty temperament."

Wen Tao followed the good advice, straightened his clothes, lucked out, and when he turned around, he was that indifferent young man who was like a fairy descending from the earth.Only then did Tang Wuyi set off with Wen Tao in satisfaction.

Walking to the gate of Jin Garden, it was already crowded with people. Fangzhu Chu and Fufang Jiang of Dongfang were all welcoming the guests, and there was no way to separate them.Tang Wuyi didn't disturb them, Shihua and Wen Tao went to the lake in the center of Jinyuan together after receiving the enumeration as last time.Because of the large number of guests, no building can accommodate so many people, so it is the tradition of Dongfang that every performance is held on the small island in the middle of the lake in Jinyuan.There are balconies and table tables around the lake, and guests can choose a viewing place around the lake, which is optional.And dignified guests like King Qi, Jiangnan Dao's interview envoy, and the governor of Yangzhou will be arranged in a Lingfeng Pavilion facing the small island in the middle of the lake, and a banquet will be prepared, which is very thoughtful.

At this time, it is the weather in Yangzhou in mid-March, warm and pleasant, with a breeze blowing.There are willows and willows by the lake, and catkins are flying.Peaches and plums bloom one after another from far and near, butterflies dance, and flowers are full of fragrance.

The small island in the middle of the lake is an open space. At this moment, the musicians and drummers of the band have been seated, divided into two rows, and have begun to play some silk and bamboo orchestral music.A stage was set up in the middle, covered with red silk.There is also a flower boat parked next to the island in the middle of the lake. No matter it is the music class or the oiran ladies who are performing for a while, they are all sent to and fro by this flower boat.

The oiran ladies had previously determined the order of the performances according to the rankings in the literary examinations, which were Nanfang, Beifang, Dongfang and Xifang.

Tang Wuyi and Wen Tao walked around the lake, and sure enough, many of the great viewing spots were already full of people, and the rest of the balconies were either noisy or had poor views.Wen Tao looked around for a while, pointed to a high ground not far away, and said, "Tang Yue, go there. The height of that small slope is about the same as that of Lingfeng Pavilion, and ordinary people can't think of going there."

Tang Wuyi smiled and said: "It's exactly what I want." The two walked along the two low stools and walked to the high slope not far away.There happens to be a camphor tree blocking the sun here, and the view is good. It is really a good place for viewing.

At this time, it happened to be Shen's time, the drums were beating loudly, and the flower boat over there had already started, picking up a few people from the shore and heading to the small island in the middle of the lake.During the period, the drum beat became more and more dense, and the guests around the lake were also aroused, and they couldn't stop looking at the center of the lake.

I saw a woman in a beautiful dress wearing a date red clay gold cape stepping down from the flower boat first, with a high bun, she was the owner of Chufang in Dongfang.I saw that she was in her early thirties, she was very sophisticated and sophisticated.As the host, Chu Fangzhu had to say a lot of scenes, and it was rare that she was also a kabuki in her early years. Her voice was clear and clear, and the guests could hear it clearly.

Tang Wuyi opened his arms and stretched, while putting his feet on his legs and posing in the most comfortable position for him.Anyway, there was no one here, and no one looked at his demeanor.Wen Tao next to him was already a little dull-eyed. Tang Wuyi knew that Wen Tao didn't like the polite words on the scene, so he just nudged him lightly, handed him the water bag and said, "You've only been up for a few hours now. .”

Wen Tao didn't answer, took a sip of water, closed his eyes and rested his mind for a while.He suddenly heard the rhythm of the drums change, he opened his eyes suddenly, the owner of Chu Fang had returned to the flower boat, and the lady Su Xin from Nan Fang was standing on the stage on the small island in the middle of the lake, Yingying gave a gift to the guests .

Miss Suxin is different from the day when she met King Qi, she was wearing a flying fairy bun, wearing a moon white dance skirt sprinkled with gold, and holding a green cloak, she looked like a dragon girl's attire.Wen Tao looked carefully and tried to identify it, Tang Wuyi had already chuckled and said, "It didn't sound good just now, Madam Suxin is going to dance "Lingbo Song"."

Lingbo song, according to legend, was obtained by the emperor in the previous dynasty who met a dragon girl in his dream.No one has been able to skip completely in this dynasty.

After a while, the sound of music sounded, like fairy music from far to near, Shi Shi was ethereal.Lady Suxin floated onto the stage, and her dancing steps were light, as if she had come flying through the clouds.The small island in the middle of the lake was originally facing the water, and Lady Suxin danced around the small island facing the water, as if dancing in the waves of the water, which really restored the scene of the dragon girl giving the emperor the dance in her dream.

She dances lightly, as if a dragonfly touches water, or like floating clouds and soft smoke, following the rhythm of Xianle, slow or fast.She is naturally charming, pretending to be a dragon girl is like a nine-day fairy descending to the earth, captivating all beings with every frown and smile.At the end of the dance, her moon-white dance skirt danced more and more anxiously, as if it was about to turn into a puff of green smoke and float away.It's really like Cao Zijian's "Luo Shen Fu", the body is swift and flying, erratic like a god, lingering with small steps, and the socks are dusty.

It wasn't until a long time after the end that Suxin's lady had already bowed on the stage again, and the guests came to their senses, bursts of cheers and applause.

"It's better than last time." Wen Tao commented.

"This is the best in the world. It was the Diefeihuawu of Lady Diewu back then, and it is comparable to this dance." Tang Wuyi praised, fanning his folding fan.

"Oh, Die Fei Hua Wu? Is it also a soft dance known for its lightness?"

"I only saw it once, and I didn't understand anything at the time. I just remembered Die Wu in a pomegranate red dance dress, the golden butterfly fluttered, and the world turned pale." Tang Wuyi recalled.

"Kingdee, how can there be Kingdee?" Wen Tao's focus has always been very strange.

Tang Wuyi gave him a blank look: "Probably something like gold paper. I just came out of the barracks at that time, so I really don't know anything about this kind of thing."

Wen Tao was thoughtful: "If it is gold paper, it can only fly for a while, but it is difficult for the whole dance to fly like a butterfly."

"Okay, Taotao, you see you have successfully missed the announcement again." Tang Wuyi pointed to the small island in the middle of the lake.The flower boat had already gone to the shore to put down Chu Fangzhu and Su Xin's lady, and the Furong lady from Beifang appeared on the stage.
