Daqi Emperor's Concubine

Chapter 23 Mid-Autumn Festival Rehearsal, Facing the Emperor, Be Outspoken
More than a month later, Qi Hongyi and his party came back from the palace. Today is already the third day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and the end of September in the Gregorian calendar, because NO. It's much cooler, so there's no need to escape the heat.

"Okay, that's it. Your performance is very good. Wait until the night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Remember to behave like this. Then you have a good rest. Don't forget to memorize your lines again every day, and then wait until August [-] At three, rehearse again, and then you can perform well during the Mid-Autumn Festival. How much reward you will get depends on how good your performance is. Alright, let’s all go to dinner now, When the costumes arrive tomorrow, you can come and try them on, although there is usually nothing wrong with tailor-made clothes, but some details like waist and armpits still need to be adjusted." Mackerel Light Dance Watching them perform a complete "Chang'e Flying to the Moon", I said with admiration.

The duration of this play is more than 70 minutes, and a Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will last at least two hours, so a play of more than 70 minutes is not too long, let alone obeying the Queen Mother's edict and expelling There was such a festive play.And according to the bugs she placed in every corner, the fact that she rehearsed for the theater troupe in the palace is already well known, so I believe that there are only a small number of people who really want to watch the show, and more People want to watch a good show, and want to see what's wrong with her play.

"The emperor is here!" Just as Ma Qingwu was lying on the bed reading a book, such an announcement suddenly came from outside, so she had to put on her clothes, and after Qi Hongyi walked in, she squatted and saluted him "Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live!" In the end, Qi Hongyi helped her up with his own hands, and the reason why he came here at this time was also because of a whim.Because he didn't turn over the sign today, he just stayed alone in the imperial study room reviewing the memorial. Now it was almost midnight, he didn't want to sleep, so he came out for a walk, and came here unconsciously.

"Qingwu, I heard from my mother that when you are at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, you have to rehearse a play. I don't know if you can let me see it first, because the Mid-Autumn Banquet is not only attended by the ministers of the Great Qi Kingdom, but also the audience. There are princes or princesses from other countries who will come over, so I want to see how the play you have released first." Qi Hongyi said as he sat down.

While speaking, he also did not forget to look at Macao Qingwu's appearance at this time.She was wearing a pink dress and a floral coat, and her hair was tied into a braid, loose and loose. She was obviously going to sleep, but she didn't expect to come over.Moreover, Qi Hongyi has already understood that for more than a month, besides going to [Kangshou Palace] to accompany her mother, Ba Qingwu went to the theater to rehearse plays, and did not go back to rest until night.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this is the script, please take a look at it!" Maca Qingwu said, and put the written script in front of Qi Hongyi.Because there are many legends and stories in "Chang'e Flying to the Moon" among the people, and what she arranges is the story of Chang'e as a mortal, until she finally flew to the moon and became a fairy, so more of them are Chang'e's folk stories. story up.

[Chang'e was born in a farming family. She is the only daughter in the family. She has exquisite features, a good appearance, and a throat that is good at singing. Therefore, she was favored by the dude and wanted to be his concubine.Houyi is a local hunter, and when the road is rough, he is a hero to save the beauty, and beauties and heroes are always very beautiful, so they are a perfect couple.

But that dude still didn't give up, so he ordered his subordinates to kill Hou Yi, and asked Chang'e to be his foot-washing maid. Fate bowed her head and was seen by Taibai Jinxing, who happened to be patrolling here in the sky, and gave her a chance to become a fairy, so she changed from a mortal to a fairy. 】This is the outline of the story, followed by specific role assignments and lines.

"It seems that this play is very good. It not only has a dude molesting a commoner girl, but also a hero saves the beauty, and then the two protagonists get married. In the end, Houyi dies and Chang'e is immortal. And in this, Chang'e also Knowing how to sing must be very good." Qi Hongyi said after reading the story.

"That's right, because Chang'e has always existed in legends, and as mortals, we have never seen a fairy, so it is most suitable for such a play to be performed during the Mid-Autumn Festival. That's right. No matter whether the people attending the banquet are only from the Daqi Kingdom or there are other people, such a play will definitely not disappoint people!" Maca Qingwu said with certainty.Because she personally wrote the script for this scene, and she watched the troupe arrange the scenes one by one, so she was very confident.

"Qingwu, now I ask you a question, what exactly do you want? Because when you first saw me, you already said that you did not enter the palace on behalf of your father, but because you wanted to It's just entering the palace, so what is your idea? What is your plan?" Qi Hongyi closed the script, and then asked the doubts in his heart. "My plan is very simple, to be the emperor's woman, and not to be the same as other concubines in this palace, but to become the emperor's favorite woman!" Saber Qingwu still said bluntly.Because she won't hide her thoughts, especially when she has a clear plan, she will speak out.

"Really? Before I ascended the throne, I already had one wife and four concubines. After ascending the throne, I added more than ten concubines, and I have already become a father. How do you think that I don't have a beloved woman in my heart?" What about it? How can you be sure that you will become that special woman in my eyes and heart?" Qi Hongyi asked when he heard Saber Qingwu say these few words in a very affirmative and confident tone.

"It's very simple, because the heights are extremely cold!" Saber Qingwu still looked into Qi Hongyi's eyes firmly, and said this sentence.

"Bao Qingwu, you are very courageous! You dare to say such a thing, aren't you afraid that I will strangle you to death?" Qi Hongyi said, and his hand was already on Bao Qingwu's neck. With a hard pinch, this delicate neck will be cut off, very easily.
