Lin Shaoyu raised his head and looked towards the stands.
When he looked at Emperor Ming, Emperor Ming closed his eyes slightly; when he looked at Yuchili, Yuchili turned his head to the side; when he looked at Prime Minister Cui, Prime Minister Cui put his hand on his forehead and fell into a slumber. He looked at the civil servants and generals on the stage,
They turned a blind eye to the royal family and nobles, as if they had not seen Lin Shaoyu.
Instead, Jin Daodao stood up and said, "Young Master Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you so depressed?"
Lin Shaoyu ignored him.
Liu Aji stood up and shook off the dust in his hand: "Jiang Guards, take away those who disrupt the military exercise."
The Imperial Guards surrounded them, and they were still wary of Lin Shaoyu's martial arts display just now. But Lin Shaoyu did not resist. He had already put down his gun and just shouted loudly.
"My father, Lin Wentian, is a man of great loyalty and can be used as a reference to heaven and earth. Why is his head missing and his body infamy for thousands of years? The unfilial son Lin Shaoyu wants to avenge my father's injustice and give him a father-in-law..."
His mouth has been gagged, and he can't say anything else. He wants justice, but sometimes you can't even say the word justice. Looking at his embarrassed look, Cheng Dalei didn't
I didn't want to take action even if I had the chance.
Everyone in the stands seemed to have regained consciousness. Lin Shaoyu's appearance was indeed a bit embarrassing, but they had learned how to not see embarrassing things.
Today, the martial arts examination was ruined by the Rong clan. It is estimated that Emperor Ming had no face to grant Qu Jiujiang or Liu Qingming any more. If Lin Shaoyu was not Lin Shaoyu, he could have been promoted to the number one scholar, but it was a pity that things did not work out.
So there are only two items left for today, one is to reward Yang Longting, and the other is to reward Cheng Dalei.
There are still many ceremonies to be carried out, drums are played, cannons are fired, and the Imperial Guards have to show off their guard of honor. During this time, everyone also needs to discuss what to do about Wu Zhuangyuan, whether to not seal it at all, or to mention someone casually.
Cover up the lost face.
"Your Majesty, Princess Mingyu specially ordered the actors to rehearse a play to replace the original sword and halberd dance. Would your Majesty want to watch it?"
"Wan'er's idea?" Emperor Ming became slightly more energetic: "Then let's take a look."
In fact, everyone is very annoyed by such complicated rituals, but you can't help but show some piety on such occasions. At this time, it's good to have a play to pass the time.
There was already a high stage in the martial arts arena, which was arranged as a stage in advance, with curtains dividing the front and back.
Emperor Ming smiled and said: "It seems that Wan'er has been prepared for a long time."
"Princess Mingyu is very thoughtful," Liu Aji said.
When Emperor Ming showed interest, there was no one present who was not interested. For a moment, everyone's attention was focused on the stage.
In the eyes of everyone, Chu Qingyi walked to the center of the stage in a white robe. His face was very white and his eyes had no expression. For a moment, no one could tell whether he was a man or a woman, or whether he was a man or a woman.
It is said that Bodhisattva is neither male nor female.
In this way, everyone could not help but be attracted to him, staring intently at his every move.
"The devil in the far north has awakened
It's freezing cold and covered in snow for thousands of miles
A disaster of weapons is coming
The world is still in a dream and doesn’t know it.”
His singing style is completely different from the popular tunes in Chang'an. It is more of a chant than a singing style. Accompanied by the flute, the sound is as ethereal as if it were the sound of nature.
On the stage, there are demons in black struggling to stand up. They have green faces and fangs, and are terrifying. A city has been breached, civilians in cloth are massacred, and nobles in brocade are fleeing.
Chu Qingyi fell to the ground, struggling and twisting his body. The white robe on his body was torn by himself, and he had a painful expression on his face.
Everyone knew what he was performing. He was performing a rape. His body twisted like a snake and his expression was desperate. Even though there was only one person, it seemed as if he was seeing a rude and dirty dog defiling the moon.
.
The hearts of the audience were tugged. Was it a woman who was raped? No, the entire empire was raped.
A general in armor was on the run. He passed by Chu Qingyi who was raped and the civilians who were being massacred. He couldn't take his eyes away and ran away in a hurry.
Chu Qingyi stood up slowly. He turned from a Bodhisattva who was neither happy nor sad into a weak woman with messy clothes, still with a pale face and no expression.
“The cultivated fields were trampled by iron hooves
A fire broke out in the house where he died
The body of the youngest son was hanging from the rafters
And I became an unclean person
Where are the people who should protect us?
But it turns out that when he ran away, even the wind couldn't catch up with him
Why is there such a disaster?
God is going to bring suffering to the world
Or God has no mercy on the world.”
The drum beats suddenly, hitting people's hearts little by little, making the audience's emotions tense.
On the road where the demons were chasing them, a group of men in green shirts suddenly appeared.
Chu Qingyi held a sword, and his aura changed instantly. If he was a charming and weak woman just now, now he is the most strong-willed man in the world.
His cold eyes flashed with cold light, and his iron sword gleamed with murderous intent. Although he was only one person, he seemed to be fighting against thousands of troops.
Behind them, the men in green shirts and black men were fighting. Although the number of men in green shirts was small, it was as if they were being attacked in a dark sea, but they were attacked by waves, but they were defended.
The sound of drums, flutes, pipa... became more and more urgent, and the battle on the stage became more and more intense.
The stage was obviously divided into two halves. On the other side, a veteran in armor was surrounded by men in black.
Chu Qingyi dances with the sword and sings while dancing:
"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you."
How can I say that I have no clothes? I am in the same boat as my son.
How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same clothes with you."
A song with three sighs, a sad melody, accompanied by the clanging drums, focused everyone's attention together. Everyone's emotions rose and fell unconsciously with the performance on the stage, and they were concerned about whether the people in Tsing Yi could hold on, and about the veteran.
Can you wait for support?
The changes on the stage suddenly accelerated, fighting, fighting, fighting. At the same time, in the corner of the stage, a clown-like person snorted and stopped the food and grass that was about to be delivered.
The fleeing general on the other side was nestled at the top of the city, sneaking his head out.
If everyone does not understand what is going on, then all the civil and military officials of the empire will become fools. Cui Xiang's face has become extremely embarrassed, but Yang Longting's face is expressionless.
Everyone looked at Emperor Ming and felt that the play could not go on any longer, but with him present, no one could make up his mind for him.
Emperor Ming opened his eyes slightly, knocked on the dragon chair with his hand, and said slowly: "Is it interesting?"
Everyone looked away. Since Emperor Ming said it was interesting, then everyone must find it interesting. But such a play is not only interesting, it also has great meaning.
Jin Daodao stood up suddenly and looked around, his heart pounding.
Yang Longting felt the same as him at this moment, scanning the martial arts arena with his eyes.
That person must be here, he is not dead, he is still alive, and he is by his side.
