Halfway through the banquet, the music in the room suddenly became more exciting!
Its powerful and resounding voice seemed to stop the auspicious clouds in their tracks.
"Huh?" The fat emperor wiped the grease from his mouth and asked in surprise, "What kind of music is that?"
Yuan Yang stood up: "Your Majesty, the sacrificial ceremony is about to begin. My granddaughter, Hua Rong, wishes to become the Empress of Dance. Therefore, she has specially choreographed a dance for Your Majesty and the members of the clan to see."
In the eyes of ordinary people, dancers are naturally considered extremely lowly.
However, the Queen of Dance who skips the sacrificial dance can jump out of this frame.
The Queen of Dance, she is sacred!
All you need to do is dance on the big drum during the sacrificial ceremony!
In an instant, one can become famous throughout the world!
Every year, the Queen of Dance is an unmarried woman from the royal family.
Of course, daughters of high-ranking officials also have the opportunity to participate.
The preliminary selection had to be approved by the emperor and the elders of the clan.
Only in this way can there be opportunities for several other assessments.
That's the only way to have a chance to become the Queen of Dance!
"But Prime Minister? The preliminary selection has already passed!" The fat emperor said, somewhat conflicted. "And when did you gain a granddaughter, Prime Minister?"
Yuan Yang said, "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and naturally does not know about this old minister's family matters. This old minister's granddaughter is only recently recognized."
"I told her that the preliminary selection was over, but she just wouldn't give up. There was nothing I could do; she's my only granddaughter, so I had no choice but to agree. Please don't blame me, Your Majesty."
"How can you blame him!" Not to mention that the fat emperor himself enjoys watching beautiful women singing and dancing, he was overjoyed when the prime minister praised him for his diligence in governing.
The prime minister must be quite handsome; his granddaughter must be a beauty as well.
Um, does the Prime Minister have a daughter?
Never mind, never mind!
Why not enjoy watching beautiful women dance?
At this moment, Shen Yue also spoke up, "Your Majesty, if this Miss Yuansun is truly capable of surpassing the dancers in the preliminary selection, I wonder if she is qualified to participate in the final selection of the Queen of Dance?"
The fat emperor frowned and glanced at Prince Ling.
Ling Wang ignored him.
He said directly, "It all depends on how well Miss Yuan Sun dances. If she dances really well, then everything is negotiable!"
"In that case, may I recommend someone?"
"Whom does the Regent recommend? Could it be this beauty behind you?"
Shen Yue nodded: "Prince Ling guessed correctly, it is indeed Ling'er."
Ling'er stepped forward and bowed to the fat emperor.
The fat emperor's eyes widened instantly.
He hadn't even noticed such a beautiful woman!
They're absolutely blind!
"My beauty, get up quickly!"
"Your Majesty..." The concubine in his arms twisted her body, looking unhappy.
The fat emperor threw her away, then got down, went to Ling'er, and helped her up.
He even held Ling'er's little hand and squeezed it several times.
"emperor."
Shen Yue called out softly, and the fat emperor shuddered.
Then he quickly let go of Ling'er's hand and returned to his seat.
"The beauties recommended by the Regent are certainly acceptable; there's a chance! There's a chance!"
When Ling Wang heard that the fat emperor had already agreed, he couldn't help but frown.
He then sighed, realizing that this was Shen Yue's purpose.
They had figured out his brother's tendency to be unable to move when he saw a beautiful woman!
"Young master, this emperor is really different from what I imagined."
The maid had been holding back for a long time, but finally couldn't take it anymore.
Jin Ming's lips twitched as he glanced at his little maid.
This naive child has no idea what kind of wise and powerful figure the emperor is in his mind.
Of course, it would be too early to draw conclusions based solely on the fat emperor's appearance.
After all, the situation in the court is now stable, with the Regent and the Prince of Ling standing on equal footing.
He's still sitting very comfortably on his throne.
"bristle……"
Just then, accompanied by rousing music...
A clear, melodious voice, tinged with a touch of wildness, rang out.
Everyone instinctively held their breath, and all the noise and clinking of glasses disappeared.
You can't even hear their breathing.
Only the increasingly rousing music and this unique singing voice resounded throughout the hall.
"My hair stands on end in anger, I lean on the railing as the rain subsides. I raise my eyes, look up at the sky and let out a long roar, my heart filled with fierce passion."
"Thirty years of fame and glory are but dust and dirt, eight thousand miles of road are but clouds and moon. Do not idly let your youthful head turn white, only to be filled with empty sorrow!"
"The shame of Yuan Pass remains unavenged; the hatred of the subjects will never be extinguished. I will drive my chariot and crush the Helan Mountain pass."
"With lofty ambitions, we'll feast on the flesh of our enemies when we're hungry, and laughingly drink the blood of the six kingdoms when we're thirsty. We'll wait to start anew, reclaim our lost lands, and return to the imperial palace." [Note 4]
Before the person even appeared, the song had already filled the hall.
Some white-haired ministers, who deeply understood the meaning of the lyrics, wept and shed tears.
Don't let your youth slip away in vain, only to regret it later!
Hahaha!
It's a pity, I didn't know that before my hair turned white.
I've already grown old!
The sound of weeping echoed throughout the entire hall.
A large drum was brought up, and the entire hall was once again divided into two worlds by a red curtain.
One is a world of weeping people.
The other is the world of dancers!
Through the red curtain, everyone could see a graceful woman dancing and singing on the drum!
Even the fat emperor sitting on the throne lost his smile amidst the singing.
His expression was serious, as if he were lost in some kind of memory!
The Yuanguan Incident refers to the second year of Yuanguan, which is the 131st year of the Seven Kingdoms History.
The State of Song was attacked by six other states, and they were driven to Dujing.
