Chapter 423 Yumiko, the ritual dance

After a few words, Yumiko gently patted her hands, called a captain in a military uniform and explained: "Col. Shinkawa Zuobu, please invite you to entertain Mr. Li Langjiang for me first."

"Lanjiangjun is my friend. After the sacrificial ceremony is over, Yumiko will come to treat him personally."

"Hi." The officer bowed deeply, and then stood near Li Jiangnan like a door god.

"Mr. Li Langjiang, Yumiko's sacrificial dance is about to begin. Yumiko will lose her companion for the time being, and I will talk to her later..." Yumiko bowed gently, and then under the guidance of the priest, she walked into the shrine with Hanako and others first.

"Mr. Li, do you want to watch His Highness Yumiko's sacrificial dance performance, or do you want to go to the back room of the shrine to have tea?" The colonel officer who was with Li Jiangnan asked respectfully.

Li Jiangnan glanced at him and found out that Yumiko arranged him by her side, called treating herself. In fact, in order to prevent herself from escaping, Li Jiangnan had to be very energetic and be careful to deal with what was going to happen next.

Li Jiangnan didn't want to have tea with this soldier guy that day, so he accompanied him to the front of the altar again. Among the reporters, he pretended to take a few photos and took a look at the sacrificial dance performance on the altar.

clang!

With a crisp sound of a gong, the white-robed priest on the altar completed the worship. He walked down the steps slowly, and then the slow-paced Taigong sounded, and the bands on both sides of the altar began to play the sacrificial dance music vigorously.

Two women in white and red dresses came on the stage, with a loose top as white as gauze, and a flowing red dress. Two stunning women both wore light makeup in ancient ladies, wearing golden buns, and a long black silk hair wrapped in a piece of white silk. They tied a long ponytail behind their heads, and there were two long red ribbons in the middle. At first glance, the two women's flowing figures and bright and unrestrained faces were really like fairies who were not as good as worldly fireworks, coming from the sky to the mortal world.

"Wow, it turns out that His Highness Yumiko performed it himself, it's so pleasing to the eye..."

Seeing Yumiko and Miss Hanako joining on stage, many journalists and audiences burst into warm applause. Their fiery eyes were fascinated by the eyes, full of yearning, longing, and worship.

As the gentle classical music sounded, Yumiko and Hanako began to dance gently. The expressions of the two women were extremely peaceful and dignified, the rhythm of the dance was neither fast nor slow, and the body shape was graceful and changeable. They held a fan in their left hand and a golden bell in their right hand, and shaking the bells gently from time to time, making a pleasant and crisp ringtone.

The audience in the audience calmed down, as if intoxicated by the sacrificial dance between Yumiko and Hanako. The pleasing dance posture, the graceful figure transformed by the white and red skirt, and everything was like a fairy in the sky, using her own physical posture to cleanse and purify the hearts of all living beings in the mortal world.

Li Jiangnan looked at Yumiko's dance on the stage and gradually put down the camera. Like other reporters, he was deeply attracted by Yumiko's moving dance and forgot to take the photo.

Today, Li Jiangnan has seen many beautiful women of excellent looks, but to be fair, no woman can be as special as Yumiko. She is not only spotless, but also has a kind of peaceful beauty with different mountains and rivers and wind and moon in the same sky, making people feel like they are in the wilderness, and making people feel like they are above the sky, and seem to be able to forget all the troubles in life.

Clang... Another crisp sound of a gong.

This should be a signal that the sacrificial dance is about to end. Yumiko and Hanako on the altar both stretched out their high wrists, shook the golden bell with urgency, then slowly closed the dance posture, Tingting bowed, and then walked down the altar slowly.

"Hu..." Many reporters around Li Jiangnan breathed a long sigh, as if they woke up from a beautiful dream.

It was not until Yumiko and Hanako's figures completely disappeared that deafening applause sounded again below the altar.

“It’s so beautiful, it’s so beautiful!”

"I can enjoy His Highness Yumiko's last performance of the sacrificial dance. Even if I die soon, I will never regret it again in my life..."

A Japanese reporter first expressed his feelings, which caused a lot of echoes, and everyone felt deeply moved and praised.

"Have you heard that, recently, there is a rumor circulating in the upper class in Kyoto. Some people say that the reason why His Highness Yumiko retired from the position of Goddess is because His Majesty the Emperor loves her granddaughter and does not want His Highness Yumiko to be with Xiangzhu Mingyue all day long and spend her whole life alone in the temple."

"It is said that His Majesty the Emperor hopes that His Highness Yumiko can have a complete and happy life like those women in the world, a man who loves him, a few cute children, and a warm family."

"I also heard that His Majesty the Emperor was determined to choose a suitable marriageable man for His Highness Miko among the noble families. Now, in Kyoto, there are several famous nobles who are moving, hoping to get to this marriage and become the royal family's outer relatives..."

The group of reporters around Li Jiangnan probably forgot what they should do when they came here, and they all got together. They started talking and talking, and they became farther and farther away, and they talked about the rumors in the market.

Li Jiangnan didn't want to listen to them nonsense, but just wanted to get rid of the current dangerous situation. But the colonel officer named Shinkawa Zuo Bingwei was standing beside him, straight and straight, and never leaving.

Li Jiangnan glanced at him and probably wanted to kill this annoying Japanese officer. But if he really did this, it would be like telling Yumiko his true identity directly. What will happen next will be without any suspense, and he will definitely be searched for the whole city.

Li Jiangnan felt a headache and had to press this irrational idea.

"Miss, you invited the reporter named Li Langjiang to dinner. Do you think he is likely to be that guy Li Jiangnan?"

After performing the sacrificial dance, Hanako accompanied Yumiko and entered a wing room in the backyard.

"I can tell that his eyes must be him. I'm very suspicious. He used disguise techniques to change his appearance..."

Yumiko is not that easy to deceive. She has received teachings from more than a dozen famous teachers since she was a child. She is not only proficient in both zither, sword, calligraphy and painting, but also proficient in many secret techniques. For example, she has witnessed the ninjas of the Koga school with her own eyes, how to disguise with genuine leather masks, how to reduce the size of her bones, and hide in a carton one or two feet square.

"I also have a sense of intuition. His expression and eyes look very similar to that bad guy Li Jiangnan, but Miss, if he is really the bad guy who bullies you, will you kill him?" Hanako followed Yumiko and sat down to her and said.

Faced with Hanako's problem, Yumiko hadn't spoken for a long time. She looked in the mirror for a long time, and there was a trace of pain gradually in her eyes.

Hanako knew that she had said the wrong thing, and knelt aside and bowed apologetically: "I was wrong, Miss."

"Hanko's mouth was unrestrained and she mentioned the previous incident, which made the lady sad."
