Chapter 240 Dancer?old friend?
Mo Li's heart was both sore and warm, and he rubbed Baili Jiuge's shoulder with one hand, while with the other hand he slightly lifted his sleeves, and turned off the lamp.

In the darkened room, the faint moonlight streamed down, staining the eyelashes.Mo Li's voice was gentle, low, and patient, telling Baili Jiuge what happened today without any concealment.

And because of Baili Jiuge's repeated questioning, Mo Li finally explained the matter of the empress dowager's sending of five civilian girls a few days ago.

In his arms, Baili Jiuge said coquettishly: "Don't tell me all these things have happened, didn't you agree that there should be no concealment between us? You don't have to not tell me because you are afraid that I will worry, you don't tell me Me, I'm more worried."

"Nine Songs..." Mo Li smiled helplessly.Sure enough, there was nothing he could do about her.

There was a slight warmth in the moment of silence.Baili Jiuge's heart is very quiet, and he can think of a lot.Glancing at the moonlight outside the window, his heart moved freely, Baili Jiuge murmured: "I heard Han Chan say before that Si Long has a sphere of influence in Xiqi City..."

The mention of this name undoubtedly made Mo Li's heart feel a little sad.He said: "The stronghold of the Yinyang family must be very secretive. Over the years, no news has been leaked, and no one knows where Si Long is."

Baili Jiuge's heart was also sore, "Mo Li, I think Si Long must have misunderstood something."

Mo Li was silent.Misunderstanding?Those things were too confusing, and he also felt that it was difficult to find the clues, and he always felt that there seemed to be an invisible hand manipulating everything.It has been manipulating since Penglai destroyed the country, or, earlier...

At this moment when Mo Li was thinking deeply, a warm little hand quietly slipped onto his face.Mo Li came back to his senses, and met Baili Jiuge's clear eyes.

"Mo Li, tomorrow I will go for a walk in Xiqi City, find the brothers from the Beggar Sect, and ask them to make more efforts to inquire. Maybe this time, there will be something that I didn't get last time."

Mo Li smiled softly, "Mmm..." Then he pulled the quilt tightly and coaxed: "It's getting late, go to sleep."

"Okay." Baili Jiuge always held this hope, and quickly fell asleep under Mo Li's coaxing.

On the second day, Baili Jiuge went to Xiqi City, met the brothers of the beggar gang, had a warm chat with them, and then entrusted the matter to them, and then went back to the other courtyard to raise him carefully. The child in the belly.

As for Mo Li, she also learned from Yuying that Cai'er had been found in the palace, and unfortunately she was bitten to death by a pack of wolves after she escaped from the cottage that night.

In Shanshui Bieyuan, it is like a paradise, and time is like quicksand between fingers.

On the third day of the fifth lunar month, which is also the Bingshen day of Jiazi month in the Xinchou year of the old calendar, a grand banquet was held to celebrate the 16th birthday of His Royal Highness Mo Hong.

Now, Baili Jiuge is almost five months pregnant, and her lower abdomen has obviously bulged.Mo Li was very careful towards her and couldn't be more careful, as if he had spent all his seven orifices on her body, once he entered the palace, he would not leave even a single step.

The place where the birthday banquet will be held is still Hongning Hall.

Because Concubine Ran and Concubine Mo Xun were imprisoned for life and could not attend, Concubine Liang sat in Concubine Ran's place, and Concubine Liang sat beside Concubine Liang.As for the concubine Liang, the head of the county is still Mo Qing, the head of the county, and then Li Yuheng. The heads and back of them are the wives and ladies of the princes and princes of the various counties.

Mo Li held Baili Jiuge in his arms, led her to the seat, and carefully helped her sit up.

Baili Jiuge was overjoyed, picked up a banana, peeled it to Mo Li, greeted Mo Yi, and waved to Li Yuheng, very casually.

This kind of behavior was seen by the Queen Mother, and she was so angry that she snorted angrily: "Even if she is really the granddaughter of the Ai family, if she doesn't understand etiquette, the Ai family will feel ashamed."

Baili Jiuge frowned.

County Lord Mo Qing followed suit with sarcasm: "What the Empress Dowager said is true, but it's not all the problem of the Crown Princess. People say 'south oranges and north oranges', and I can only blame the bad etiquette of the Shang Kingdom."

Shangguo?Baili Jiuge didn't bother to mind.She was brought up by her master and Guyan, they didn't teach her any manners.Since Mo Qing wants to rely on Da Shang, then go ahead.

Mo Qing originally wanted to stimulate Baili Jiuge, but it can be seen that she didn't get into it, she was bored, and stopped talking.

The Empress Dowager said: "Anyway, she is also the concubine of my Great Zhou Dynasty. Is this vulgarity a joke for all the countries? What should be changed, it must be changed."

Li Yuheng said with a smile: "The empress dowager, please calm down. Everyone has their own characteristics. It's so boring to imitate others. Moreover, the word 'legendary' is used by all countries to evaluate the princess."

The queen mother looked at Li Yuheng displeased, and couldn't bear to blame him.

Mo Li smiled lightly and said, "Jiu Ge's willful willfulness is what I love so much. If she changes, will she still be Jiu Ge?"

As soon as these words were spoken, I don't know how many young ladies' hearts were crushed during the banquet.The Empress Dowager's Yintang turned black, and she was so choked that she couldn't speak.Li Yuheng lowered his head to play with Bai Yugui, and secretly exchanged glances with Mo Yi.

"Mo Li..." Baili Jiuge's heart was as sweet as honey, and under the table, the two hands were tightly linked.

Around the time of You, a court official read a congratulatory speech for Mo Hong according to the procedure of the birthday banquet.Then Si Le led a group of musicians and began to play instruments.

Baili Jiuge was eating vegetables with her head down at the moment. She wanted to drink, but she couldn't drink because she was pregnant. She endured the feeling of gluttony and simply listened to the music played by the musicians.

After listening to it, he taught her to take a snack and surprised her.Although there are some changes in the melody of this piece, she can tell that it is undoubtedly "Chu Yao".

This "Chu Waist" is a dance of the Chu State in ancient times, and it is most important to express the beauty of a woman's waist. When she was in Dashang, Baili Ziru danced this dance in public in order to become Yin Haochen's side concubine.

This dance is very difficult, except for Gu Lian, Baili Jiuge doesn't think anyone can dance "Chu Yao" well.Could it be that there are any highly skilled dancers on Zhou Guo's side?
She raised her head, just in time to see a woman, walking in lotus steps, gracefully as if sent by the clouds.

At this moment, petals floated from nowhere, and the woman took a step, her sleeves were neat, and the moment she landed, she bent over like a butterfly drinking honey, her long hair swept the floor, and the ground fell red.

The guests present were in an uproar. Is this woman a new dancer?In previous palace banquets, they had never seen such consummate dancing skills.

Involuntarily, all eyes were focused on the woman's face. She wore a light veil to cover her face. Such a cover-up made everyone's hearts itchy. They really wanted to see what kind of flower was under the veil. Allow.

The woman's dance became more and more amazing, with sleeves raised, waist bent, leaping in the air, sleeves flying, every movement made people's breath tighten, following her rhythm, tight and loose, loose and tight.

Mo Li was watching indifferently, lowered his head, picked up chestnuts from the silver plate, and peeled them to Baili Jiuge, but suddenly, he heard Baili Jiuge's muttering: "Gu... pity?"

Mo Li was slightly startled, put down the chestnut, held Baili Jiuge's cool hand, and asked softly, "Jiuge, what's wrong?"

Baili Jiuge came back to his senses, as if waking up from a dream, he hurriedly said: "I have seen Gu Lian's "Chu Yao", and it is like this now. "Chu Yao" is extremely difficult, and dancers from all over the world can dance to this level. How many can there be? It's Gu Lian, is it really Gu Lian?"

"Jiu Ge, don't worry, if you really want to know, I'll accompany you to ask her in a while." Mo Li coaxed, then suddenly glanced at Mo Yi, but Mo Yi was drinking and enjoying the dance , didn't seem to notice him.
