Prince Zuo Li was in a very comfortable mood at this time. Just now, the sixth prince Zuo Feng came to report on the preparations for tonight's uprising. Now everything is ready and just waiting for the royal banquet to be held.
This is also the reason why Zuo Li still enjoys leisurely drinking and having fun. As for watching the dancers' performances, it is not just to relax their mood, but to test their dancing postures.
This group of dancers will perform at the royal banquet, and among them are hidden the dead men summoned by Xing Qun, who will then become secret moves and killing moves to assist him in his rebellion.
Zuo Li took a sip of wine and nodded towards Xing Qun. Xing Qun understood, stretched out his hand and slapped his face twice, making a crisp snapping sound.
The group of dancers stopped when they heard the sound, then bowed and slowly retreated, leaving only the pretty lead dancer.
Zuo Li chuckled a few times and waved to the beautiful dancer. The dancer hesitated a few steps, but still walked slowly over and knelt in front of Zuo Li.
Looking at the shy dancer with her lowered head and eyes like delicate flowers, Zuo Li licked his lips and put two fingers on the dancer's pointed chin. A smooth touch came from his fingertips.
Lift up slowly.
Then he impatiently tore off the thin veil covering half of his face. In an instant, a beautiful and charming face came into his eyes, like a budding flower.
Zuo Li's eyes suddenly glowed with burning desire. He swallowed and said in a quick and eager voice:
"Beauty, come with me to the inner room and let me take pity on you, hehehe..."
Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and a red line appeared on Zuo Li's neck. He covered his neck in surprise and looked at the beauty in front of him in disbelief.
After the dancer succeeded with one blow, she did not retreat, but raised the weapon in her hand again and stabbed Zuoli's heart.
It was only then that the guard beside Zuo Li realized what he was doing. He fluttered his fingers, and in an instant, a fiery snake spurted out and shot towards the femme fatale in his eyes.
Xing Qun's reaction was even half a beat too slow, and he rushed towards the dancer in a hurry. He opened his teeth and claws and let out a scream in his throat:
"Ah... someone is coming quickly, someone is coming quickly..."
Facing the fire snake that shot at her, the beautiful dancer ignored it. She knew that if she was hit, she would be seriously injured, and she would not be able to escape even if she wanted to. The only way out would be death, but she still refused to dodge.
At this moment, she only has Prince Zuo Li in her eyes. She is a dead soldier. A dead soldier only has a mission in his heart. His own life is not important. He can give up anything as long as he can complete the mission.
Under the momentum of the dancing girl dying together, Zuo Li seemed to be frightened and dumbfounded. The dagger in the dancing girl's hand pierced Zuo Li's chest hard before the fire snake hit her.
With a "bang", Zuo Li fell to the ground on his back, making no sound.
At this time, the hot fire snake finally shot onto the dancer's body, and was about to swallow her up. At this critical moment, the fire snake strangely rubbed the dancer's clothes and shot into the air.
.
Suddenly, the sound of applause came, and Prince Zuo Li stood up, clapped his hands, and looked at the beautiful dancer who fell to the ground. His face was no longer lustful, but a look of appreciation.
"Okay, very good. The attack is decisive and ruthless, making people unable to guard against it. Faced with the target, you will never look back, and you will not hesitate to die together. Ye Ji, you did a good job."
At this time, eunuch Xing Qun hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern:
"Your Highness, you didn't fall just now, did you? You scared the little guy to death."
Zuo Li waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, but bent down to help the dancer named Ye Ji up.
Ye Ji thanked her sincerely, then stood aside and waited quietly with her head slightly bowed.
Zuo Li was playing with a dagger in his hand, which was the same dagger that Ye Ji had stabbed into his chest just now. The dagger was made of cork and the tip was smeared with red paint. This was also the origin of the red thread on his neck.
He glanced at everyone, pointed the dagger at Xing Qun, and said:
"Daban, please evaluate first, how was Ye Ji's performance just now?"
"Haha, His Highness also said it just now, and the villain also agrees very much. Ye Ji is really hard to guard against. The first blow was so sudden that I didn't even react. It scared me silly. Of course, the villain is not a monk.
It can only be watched by laymen. As for the secrets, I think it’s better to listen to what Zhang Gongfeng has to say.”
Zuo Li nodded and looked at Zhang Chongfeng on the other side, his attitude was sincere and respectful. That Zhang Chongfeng was about forty years old, of medium height, not burly, and slightly rickety.
When he saw the prince looking at him, his already slender eyes were bent into slits, and a flattering smile bloomed on his thin and somewhat shriveled face.
Zhang Gongfeng cupped his fists and raised his hands, and said in a high-pitched voice with a local accent:
"Ye Ji, this eldest daughter, is very capable. I knew that she wanted to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince, so I never took my eyes off her. However, I still didn't expect that this eldest daughter was so quick to take action.
I have also reached the state of enlightenment, but I didn't notice it in advance and was attacked by her in a surprise attack."
Zhang Gongfeng shook his head and continued with a look of admiration:
"It's a great match. There will be no problem with the appointment at the banquet from now on. I believe in Ye Ji, you are awesome."
Prince Zuo Li rubbed his eyebrows, smiled and said:
"Ha, with Zhang Zongfeng's words, I feel more confident. Ye Ji has also worked hard. Tonight, just look at my eyes and act."
Then he waved his sleeves and said in a deep voice:
"Okay, this rehearsal is over. It's very perfect. You all can go back and make some corrections. You will do your best tonight. When it is completed, I will give you promotions and titles."
After an impassioned painting of pie, everyone was so excited that they quickly bowed and saluted to show their loyalty, and then left with their own thoughts.
Looking at Ye Jina's enchanting back, Zuo Li couldn't help but replay the moving scene just now in his mind.
Like the butterflies flying among the flowers, like the round dew on the tip of the lotus leaf, it made him feel like drinking a fine wine, and he was so drunk that he couldn't control himself. The joyful dancing, the graceful and skillful movements, the graceful posture, and the myriad changes were like a peacock
When the tail is opened, it looks like a lotus flower blooming, like a flying dragon flying around. It is smart and elegant, like a lotus dancing lightly among the water and clouds at dawn, swaying. It is soft and graceful, and dances out a sweet dream that makes people's hearts soar.
Zuo Li couldn't help but licked his lips again, swallowed his saliva, and thought to himself:
"I will capture you after tonight. Don't worry, beauty, I will not treat you badly. I will definitely make you my concubine."
Then, he looked at the boundless blue sky outside the door and Nangan said:
"After tonight, you will be alone in the world. No, it will be mine. Hahaha. By then, I can have all the beauties in the world included in my harem."
Suddenly he seemed to think of something, frowned, and said helplessly:
"It's a pity that the Great Earthquake is just a vassal of the Taoist sect. I have no chance to bear the fairies of the Taoist sect, huh? I can send a request to the Taoist sect and ask them to grant a marriage. Then I can gain a Taoist sect fairy. Yes, that's right.
, just do it.”
…
After Xing Qun served Prince Zuo Li, he returned to his residence. He shielded his left and right sides, closed the door, took out a simple bronze mirror, and muttered something.
Not long after, a figure emerged from the bronze mirror. It was the Holy Envoy of Bon Religion dressed in black robes. The hood was still a withered yellow mask shaped like a sycamore leaf, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.
Xing Qun hurriedly saluted and said:
"I inform the Holy Envoy that everything has been arranged. Please rest assured, Holy Envoy."
The Holy Envoy of the Bon religion slightly nodded his head, and Xing Qun continued:
"May I ask the Holy Envoy, do you need someone to arrange an identity to enter the palace tonight?"
