After the luncheon, the good play was staged in the afternoon. In the morning, it was just for the emperor Gengshi to attend the sacrifice. In the afternoon, it was not just the ministers, but every Taoist temple needed to present its own program. Before, the Taoist temple of Runan County invited Wu Yi to rehearse the title of the program.

Of course, at that time, in order to show off in front of the public and get the appreciation of the guru, the disciples of Runan County took out all the magic skills to press the bottom of the box. Now it is not necessary to perform in front of the emperor. They even deliberately do not use the Taoist skills. Even if they use them, they can not shock the world and shake the authority of the emperor. According to the past practice, most of them are some deceptive tricks, Sometimes it is mixed with some simple spells, such as aerosol, rain and so on.

Liucheng Yidao view this time is to catalyze seeds, make a pile of seeds bloom bright flowers, and form a word of longevity through combination. This performance is neither too vulgar nor too profound. It can let everyone see a novelty.

In fact, the whole program, that is, those seeds, used some Taoist methods. In fact, those seeds have long been soaked in spiritual water and are full of vitality. If they were not blocked by magic, they would have bloomed long ago. At that time, they only need to unlock the ban on the court. As for the arrangement and combination into a word of longevity, even Taoism has not been used, that is, there is a small pit where the seeds are placed to ensure that the seeds will bloom there.

Such a simple performance naturally does not require everyone in the whole Taoist temple to go on stage. Li Gu originally planned to send a disciple to go on stage, but later he seemed to feel that he was not sincere enough, so he added two props holders, and only one person really performed.

The decision of who will perform on the stage is decided by drawing lots. Other disciples are determined to win the opportunity to show their face in front of their peers across the country. Therefore, they draw lots to show fairness, but in the end, Wu Yi, who is bent on avoiding the matter, won the prize. He is still the one who performs in person, which makes him feel that "he doesn't want to plant flowers and flowers, and he doesn't want to plant willows into shade."

Wu Yi wanted to change with the disciples who wanted to go, but he also exchanged with the disciples holding props. However, he caught a glimpse of Li Guping's eyes as light as a deep spring. It seemed that he had guessed the mind in his heart. What he was about to blurt out was swallowed by him. He accepted the arrangement of fate and was relieved to prepare for the next performance.

There is nothing to prepare for the performance process. What needs to be prepared is just what to say after going on stage, but it is not the first performance. Wu Yida can refer to the words of several people who went on stage in front and delete them slightly. After all, it's not for a ranking. Just muddle along. Don't be too bad.

I don't know how other people who take this opportunity seriously feel after they know Wu Yi's idea. In fact, Wu Yi has enough strength to speak behind it. In addition, with Wang's support and internal and external cultivation, they don't need to go through these side doors. They pollute themselves in vain and leave a name of lucky progress.

After the afternoon tea, it's time to go on the stage. In order to show that we can share happiness with the people, the afternoon activity is selected in the Daxiang hall, which is in the north of the imperial city. It's the nearest hall to the outer city. It's the place where the Emperor inquires about public opinion. The process is that people around the emperor, such as eunuchs and palace maids, go to the outer city and bring in several civilians at random. The emperor asks them how they live and how they think of officials, However, there are many concealment and fraud in the process, and the symbolic significance is greater than the practical significance. Even the Emperor himself acquiesced in this way.

The Daxiang hall has been burned and repaired several times since Dayu Guoguo. The people secretly say that it is the result of the emperor's failure to observe public opinion. The emperors before the change of emperor can see that the national power is declining day by day. At the beginning of his succession, he was busy stabilizing the national power, and there was no lack of personal expedition. After the four borders were stable, he was old and knew that receiving the people was actually a political show, It can be said that the emperor of Gengshi hardly met the people in the hall of great enjoyment. Not long ago, the hall of great enjoyment was destroyed by Tianlei, and the people talked about it one after another. It is one of the few stains of the emperor of Gengshi.

Although the emperor Gengshi didn't think much of the Grand Hall of enjoyment, as an important means for the former Lord to understand public opinion and crack down on corrupt officials, the foundation of the hall of enjoyment still exists. Wu Yi saw that the main hall was more than ten feet high, with gold-plated Baoding and blue tiles, triple eaves and spires, which were collected layer by layer, both practical and aesthetic. Because it was repaired not long ago, the materials had no sense of staleness, and the paint was still very bright, Red as fire, yellow as gold.

If Wu Yi had not been a performer this time, he could not have entered the main hall at all. He must have been placed in the side hall. The people who could enter the main hall were either the Taoist temple leading the team to build the foundation, or the six ministers, the chief executive and assistant, or the returning old officials, who had a great influence on the court hall.

The design of the great enjoyment hall is very ingenious. It can let the people at the bottom see what the people at the top are doing. At the same time, it can also let the people in the side hall see what the main hall is doing. It's just that seeing at such a distance is just a shadow. As for the sound, it's delusional and depends on their own brain.

Not to mention looking at the main hall from the side hall, people at the bottom of the main hall can't see what happened on the third floor under the height difference of ten feet, but the emperor, the dragon, is not easy to see. The person who arranges the birthday banquet may have made some arrangements when choosing the grand hall.

Although people can't see the performance on the spot, if there are items left like Wu Yi's performance, they will send them to others for viewing. In addition to distributing them to the side hall downstairs, they will also send them to the people in the outer city. Otherwise, they will lose their "original intention" of sharing happiness with the people.

In the morning, it was not the programs prepared by Taoists, but other programs presented by other officials, such as Jiaofang department, noble relatives and bureaucrats. Although they were all mortals, they were constrained by imperial power, had the idea of pleasing the emperor, and would spare no effort to prepare. Although there was no Taoist bonus, many programs were also very distinctive, Wu Yi is a little shy when he sees these. After all, the gap is not big. He will lose face at that time.

Although Wu Yi thought so in his heart, his face was calm. Ge Yiyi behind him looked anxious and restless. Meimu looked at the plate he was carrying, which contained the seeds that had given Ge Yiyi confidence.

Wu Yi looks funny, but he doesn't have the ability to calm him down. Coincidentally, except Wu Yi, the other two disciples who carry props are female disciples. Wu Yi doesn't attach great importance to the performance. Although Wang chuanchen told him not to lose the prestige of Taoism before leaving, Wu Yi guesses that his real meaning should be not to lose the prestige in front of other peers, As for the performance.

His two companions seem to have different ideas from him. Women, especially young ladies like GE Yiyi, are very competitive and don't care as much as Wu Yi.

Now Ge Yiyi is talking about how to modify it with another female disciple he called elder martial sister Jiang. Wu Yi can't get in touch with it. Because his previous suggestions were considered by the two women to be brainless, they threw him away and stopped discussing with him.

Wu Yi didn't have to wait long. After a while, they made two improvements, including the change of seed color and seed size.

The original color was the original color of the seed, but the elder martial sister Jiang used a technique of colored clothes to change the seed color into colorful colors. As the name suggests, the technique of colored clothes is to dress the seed in colored clothes, not to really change the seed color. Since it is clothes, it will wear out and wear out. However, under the nourishment of spirit, the flower has already withered when the colored clothes are worn out. Don't worry so much.

There is also the seed size. Ge Yiyi is worried about the lack of spiritual liquid prepared before, because in the previous experiment, the flowers grow only three inches. Now Ge Yiyi has added three times the spiritual liquid. It should not be difficult to grow a foot long bouquet by analogy. Wu Yi is really not afraid of shocking the world.

But since he didn't pay much attention to the performance before, now naturally he won't change his view because of the change. He nodded and agreed.

Soon the performances presented by the bureaucrats were finished, and it was the Taoist disciples' turn. The noisy scene was quiet for a moment. After all, it was the immortal family. I don't know what magic the immortal family has, but what expression or expression the old ministers had. After all, they didn't watch the Taoist performance for the first time. It was no different from other performances, but it was better in terms of novelty, For example, the first player surprised the whole audience.

The first performer is Runan County, but Wu Yi doesn't see fan Mingqing. However, in Wu Yi's mind, fan Mingqing should come here because of fate. Otherwise, he will be sent to do this in the realm of his four changes. For example, there is no senior brother or sister with more than four changes in Wu Yi's Liucheng Yiqi view, which is an excuse to shirk.

The performance form of Runan County and others is similar to that prepared by Wu Yi and others. It is not a seed, but a fish. The fish the size of a finger grows a little bigger in the water tank, and finally becomes thicker than the wrist. The color also changes from blue and black to golden yellow. Finally, the fish spits out an inscription gold engraved with blessing as the East China Sea and longevity as the south mountain, When the eunuch who saw it with his own eyes said those eight words, the whole audience immediately boiling up.

Seeing that the first opponent was so strong, Ge Yiyi stroked the hair floating to the temples with her hand, and gave a happy cry. It was naughty and lovely.

Later, the performances of other Taoist temples were roughly the same. While showing the theme of the birthday banquet, they could also show exquisite Taoism. Although it was used for fun, no one stipulated that Taoism must be used to fight Dharma. The avenue is invisible and there is Tao everywhere.

It's Wu Yi's turn. The three of Wu Yi went up to the third floor and paid homage to the people around. The three princes of the empress and Prince of Gengshi, who are at the head, don't have to say much. There are not only great friars like Bai Mei, but also black faced prime ministers who have been idle for many years. It can be said that Gengshi's cultural, political and martial arts skills are half his credit, but now he is also an old man.

In fact, those who can enter the third floor are all big people, of which there are only more than 20. There are five Taoists, including old Taoist Baimei. Xie Yi was among them that day. It is not difficult to guess that all the Taoists here are real Jindan.

Since they are all big people, there are not many people anyway. Wu Yi simply worships them one by one.

For a simple self introduction, at least make clear the origin of his family and which Taoist temple he came from. Wu Yi began his own performance. I have to say that after the improvement of Ge Yiyi and elder martial sister Jiang, it was much more colorful. Even the last word of longevity was a little more high-spirited and full of vitality.

After watching the performance, there was another thunderous applause upstairs and downstairs. Wu Yi wanted to go down directly after thanking the queen, but unexpectedly, he suddenly heard the queen yell "OK". Wu Yi, who had just got up, had to bow down again and say that the queen loved him.

With a warm expression, the queen repeatedly said to Wu Yi: "good, good," turned to point to Wu Yi and said to a female official behind her, "reward."

The female official promised and motioned Wu Yi with her eyes. Wu Yi and the three went down with them.

The Queen's reaction surprised the people. Although Wu Yi performed well, it was not as much as before. Thinking about it fruitlessly, he attributed it to the Queen's love of flowers, especially colorful flowers. Later, many Taoist disciples did not mention this.

Seeing the Queen's performance like this, only those upstairs could see clearly. Old Taoist Baimei swept Xie Yi across with cold light, but when he saw that Xie Yi was also a confused expression, his eyebrows frowned a little more.
