Hotaru [The Tale of Genji]

It finally came to October [-]th, the big day for Shangxing Xingzhuqueyuan.The onmyojis have already predicted that today is a good and auspicious day, and everything is suitable.Today's interest is very high, and everyone below the prince is accompanying.The king of the East Palace also watched it.

The viewing seats are set near the lake, surrounded by many tall maple, pine and other good autumn trees.According to the rule, the boats playing music shuttled in the pool, and the sound of orchestral drums suppressed the clouds.There are also Tang dance, Goryeo dance and many other performances.

On the day of the music test, Mr. Genji's performance was so good that Imakami was worried that he would be jealous of the sky, so he asked people to play everywhere to bless him safe and sound.Everyone heard the sound of chanting sutras from the monastery, and they were all moved by the heart of Imakami's beloved son.The mother of Dudong Palace has bad intentions, and blaming her would be a big deal.

In order to perform the "Qinghai Wave" dance, about 40 people are needed to surround the adult wall and play the flute.From the top to the top, the bottom and the bottom, all works that are superior to skills are selected.And the two prime ministers and the left and right gate guards are the left and right music.For today's grand ceremony, the dancers recruited first-class celebrities to practice hard behind closed doors for many days.

Under the shade of the tall red leaves, 40 people played the flute in unison, and the wind and music at the foot of the mountain seemed to help out.In the bright and colorful leaves, Guangyuan's bright dance suddenly appeared, and the scene was so beautiful that it shocked the world.The red leaves in his temple hair are already scattered, and the brilliance has been taken away by his bright face.

Later, he changed to golden chrysanthemum accessories, which are even more charming to match this graceful dance.The onlookers couldn't help shivering, they could hardly believe that this was a dance on earth.There are also many servants hiding under the trees, beside the rocks, and peeping in the piles of fallen leaves. As long as they are emotional, they will all be moved to tears.

Prince Guang's peerless dance attracted everyone's attention, Suzaku watched for a while, and then quietly left the stage when everyone was addicted to the climax.It's not that Genji's dance is not beautiful enough, it's just that Suzaku is going to meet His Royal Highness, Prince Ying who is preparing in the back hall.

At this time, Prince Ying had already changed into an elegantly tailored dress, and the maid recombed her hair in a bun.When Suzaku came in, he happened to see the palace servants retreating politely.

"Firefly, are you ready?"

"Suzaku."

Prince Ying turned around upon hearing the sound, and smiled at the East Palace.With those gorgeous eyebrows paired with a touching smile, Suzaku couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if the Fourth Prince put on a grown-up bun, his eyebrows would stretch.I don't know how many people will be fascinated by this gorgeous appearance.This unique and fierce charm is also unique in this world.

"The front is over?"

"No, I'll come and see you."

"Well, is it okay to just leave like this?"

Suzaku stretched out his hand and stroked Prince Ying's neat cuffs, looked left and right, and didn't stop until he couldn't find a single imperfection, "It's okay, just for a while."

"That's good," His Royal Highness took Suzaku's hand and led him to the makeup mirror.He picked up the red leaves that had been prepared in the wooden box next to him and handed them to him, "Suzaku, please help me insert my hair."

Suzaku took the red leaf branch, looked at it carefully, put it down and said, "This branch is not good, let's go and find another one."

The two went to an uninhabited red leaf tree by the lake and picked a new leaf.He folded it under the East Palace, and personally inserted the red maple, which was like half a burning flame, on Prince Ying's hair.The Fourth Prince looked at the movements of the East Palace with good eyesight, almost greedily feeling the warmth when he approached.This mishap was only for a moment, but the fourth prince seemed to be in a dream, and he felt incomparably graceful.

Dong Gong helped the branch and leaf, and slid it along the hair on the temples.He put down his hand, glanced left and right, and said with satisfaction: "Okay."

The eyes of the fourth prince followed the departure of the slender fingers, and cast a gentle look at the Shangdong Palace.He adjusted the sleeves of his robe, took out a folding fan painted with patterns of autumn leaves, and smiled at Suzaku.

"Then, here I go."

……

If we say that Prince Guang's dancing posture is intoxicating and dreamlike.Then, Prince Ying's dancing posture is compelling.This solo dance called "Autumn Wind" made people feel a sense of Ling Lie's killing.The viewers couldn't help covering their chests and holding their breath.He was obviously forced to dare not take a big breath, but he couldn't take his gaze away from that gorgeous figure.

At dusk, the sky does not know when it is raining, it is not big, but it has an inexplicable sadness.The easy-going voice gradually softened, and in the slight drizzle, the sharp and aggressive aura was finally diluted.People relaxed a little, but were hit by a sad and desolate atmosphere.If the tears just now were due to seeing the beautiful dance in the Heavenly Palace, but the tears shed now are the unknowing pity that was aroused by the secret sadness in my heart.

Those who couldn't ask for it, missed it, dared not forget it, lost it, abandoned it, and finally became strangers in the world.

The Dance of the Autumn Winds is long over.

But no one in the hall made a sound, even the lively flute strings and drums were quiet.In the silent atmosphere of the world, the young man on the stage slowly retracted the folding fan in his hand.When he turned his head for a moment, his bright eyes brought back the color of the world that he had just taken away.Everyone suddenly reacted from being immersed in desolation and loneliness, and turned their heads to wipe their tears with their sleeves, so as not to let others see their appearance of losing their composure.

While everyone was in a hurry, Prince Ying took off the red maple from his temples and put it on his lips for a soft kiss in the unique rain curtain.The way he looked at a person was full of tenderness at the beginning of love.

Since the previous two dances were so wonderful, the other programs paled in comparison and were nothing to behold.

Tonight, it is routine to award rewards today.Lieutenant General Genji was promoted to the top three, and the son of the left minister who danced with him was promoted to the bottom four. The other ministers also received promotions according to their status.In the harem, Chengxiang Hall gave a big reward, and rewarded the Fourth Highness with ten pieces of Tang wares, five pieces of glazed celadon decorations, and some other papers, books, pens and inks, etc.After this fortunate trip, I don't know how many people were impressed by His Royal Highness Ying's dancing posture.Gradually, people began to call this His Royal Highness the fourth prince with outstanding temperament and incomparable excellence with such good titles as "Palace of Red Leaves".

After the trip was over, all the ministers in the court breathed a sigh of relief.They all understood that the reward and promotion tonight was probably a move by His Majesty to seize the last few opportunities to improve the status of his confidants during his reign.The ultimate goal is naturally self-evident.Everyone cast their eyes on the female imperial concubine in the harem, waiting for the moment when the fetus in her womb was born.

This female imperial concubine committed a serious crime during her pregnancy, and now she is even more trembling and cautious.Perhaps there were too many prying eyes in the palace, and His Royal Highness Barnacle could not sleep at night.Imakami thought of the lover who passed away young more than ten years ago, and was afraid that the tragedy would happen again, so he was busy escorting His Royal Highness Barnacle back to her natal home for recuperation.I would rather endure the pain of lovesickness than suffer any harm to the mother and son.

During the period when His Highness Barnacle returned to Santiaoyuan to recuperate, someone always reported to the palace to inform His Highness of the situation.Hearing that she is getting better every day, I am relieved a lot.

Perhaps beautiful people always deserve more attention.

His Royal Highness Barnacle finally avoided all kinds of sights, but Prince Guang did not have such good luck.The news that a newcomer was welcome in his Ertiao courtyard spread quickly.When it was reported to the young lady in the mansion of the left minister, she was naturally sad and depressed, and could no longer get along with her husband in harmony.

Everyone has speculated about what kind of person in Ertiaoyuan attracted Genji so obsessed.This young man, whether it is temperament or appearance, has become more and more outstanding as he grows up, and he is becoming more and more like the person that Genji is bitterly in love with.The more they get along, the more intimate they become.

And for this matter, Imam specially summoned Mr. Genji into the palace.Tell him to treat his wife well and not to cause any excessive trouble.Facing his father who is so sincere, Prince Guang felt extremely guilty, and even had an unspeakable sentimentality, which is really bitter.

And that Lord Noyama Shinpei rushed to Prince Ying and swore that he definitely did not reveal the news by himself.Before he could finish his grumbling words, the Fourth Highness, who was still in a good mood, threw a letter in his arms.

"I know it's not you," His Royal Highness played with a beautiful wooden box in his hand, and gave Xinping a sideways look. "As long as the girl's identity is not revealed, nothing else matters."

"But……"

"You are not the only one who has the news in Beijing. Maybe it was leaked by the women who are in love with the second emperor brother." The Fourth Highness is not interested in these other people's lace, pointing to the letter thrown in the past , "Bring these to grandfather, and don't enter the palace for the time being. Recently, the imperial palace has been too busy, so it's better to be quiet."

"oh oh……"

Xinping was hit with a letter on the forehead, and he was inexplicably disappointed when he heard that the prince didn't care about it - it seemed that he had prepared a big show and was cut off before he could sing.He was heartbroken for a while in silence, before he packed all the letters in a daze, and put them in his arms properly.
