Chapter 939: A feast with singing and dancing~ (Thanks to the Millennium Peach Tree Spirit for the monthly ticket~)
No matter what Emperor Wu was thinking, she was raising her glass with a smile on her face and inviting everyone to drink together.
Out of vigilance, Li Sanniang raised the glass to her lips like others, and there was indeed good wine in the glass, but she only smelled it and didn't touch it at all.
It's not that he was afraid that the wine was poisonous. Even if it was poisonous, Li Sanniang would have discovered it immediately due to her extremely sensitive senses.
Instead of drinking the wine, I only ate with a few chopsticks, just because I was afraid of the inconvenience of changing clothes on such an occasion, and also because I was afraid that if I got drunk, I would make a fool of myself.
After getting rid of this huge stone, the tribute gifts from the small vassal countries in the future were mediocre.
When Emperor Wu said: "Let the banquet begin." The musicians changed the music again. Li Sanniang didn't even know where those dancers ran out from. Anyway, after the music started, in the blink of an eye, dozens of dancers came out. Appeared in a beautiful dance dress.
Li Sanniang watched it with relish, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "I have become successful, and I can watch the singing and dancing performances in the Tai Chi Hall."
This dance lasted for a quarter of an hour. Although these dancers were really graceful and beautiful, as a girl, Li Sanniang didn't find it amazing.
As a result, as soon as she picked up a piece of venison with her chopsticks, she heard the Lang Guan next to her say: "It's actually the sword dance of the young man from Pei Shilang's family. I have heard that Pei Xiaolang has a reputation for talent." Come.”
"You're at a loss. Pei Xiaolang is indeed among the people reported by the palace servant. It's just that Pei Xiaolang is accompanying his brother. The sword dancers are Pei Dalang and Xiao Sheng."
"Oh? Xiao Sheng?
That young star of the Xiao family?
Is he the young general whose legs were saved by the female doctor from the Imperial Medical Office? ”
Hearing this, Li Sanniang put down her chopsticks, turned around, and smiled at Lang Guan who mentioned her.
The official was quite generous. Seeing Li Sanniang looking over, he cupped his hands and smiled.
The legs of the young general Xing Xiao Sheng of the Xiao family were indeed cured by Li Sanniang. When mentioning this matter, one has to think of the assassination that Li Sanniang encountered - the smallpox poisoning case, which was the crime committed by the son of Princess Nanping. .
Before Li Sanniang could think about it, a pipa sound like pearls falling on a jade plate sounded in her ears.
Li Sanniang sat upright and looked towards the center of the hall. She saw a man in an indigo round-neck robe holding a pipa and playing the pipa. After the pipa sounded for a while, two men with tied hair came out with swords in hand.
The man in the red skirt must be Pei Dalang, because the man in the black skirt is Xiao Sheng, the young general of the Xiao family who was rescued by Li Sanniang.
The beauty of men's dance and women's dance are completely different. This is the first time for Li Sanniang to watch sword dance. With just one starting position, Li Sanniang feels that her hands are full of power.
The pipa music was also played just right, and every time the two of them faced off against each other in sword dance, they could feel the tension rising in the music.
The sword dance lasted only a quarter of an hour, but it was a feast for the eyes!
Even Emperor Wu, who was sitting in a high position, couldn't help but say yes, and when the news came to Li Sanniang, it was: "The saint is very happy, reward me!"
Li Sanniang had certainly seen some clues. There must have been a lot of news about the Xiao family's young general Xing's great legs.
However, if I don’t really come out on such a big occasion to show everyone my pair of good legs, I don’t know what people outside will say?
Moreover, if a military commander wants to achieve success, he must rely on military exploits.
So, if you want to join the war, you have to let the people above know that you are well and ready to lead troops to fight.
Obviously, judging from the current situation of the Tang Dynasty, it will definitely expand externally in the future. It is obvious that this is a good period for military generals to open up territories for the Tang Dynasty.
So, at this time, isn't it the best way for Xiao Sheng to perform a sword dance that requires extremely high physical strength and skills to declare that he is strong and determined to fight? Next came singing and dancing, all of which Li Sanniang had never seen before, but she enjoyed watching them.
While watching this song and dance, Li Sanniang heard a noise coming from the East Turks in front. She and the Lang Guan next to her looked at each other, and both of them had a feeling of "finally here" in their eyes.
The East Turks are the most interesting. They can't use conspiracy and conspiracy, and they can't face direct confrontation. And then when facing the Tang Dynasty, they are still dissatisfied.
No, the banquet is almost coming to an end, and something is really coming.
Li Sanniang was not qualified to know what happened before, but after waiting for a while, a palace attendant came in with carpets and ribbons.
It turned out that the Great Khan of East Turkestan said that this soft song and dance was boring, and it would be better to have an interesting wrestling competition.
"Wrestling? A game of strength and skill."
Li Sanniang thought like this and raised her head to look forward. She wanted to see what kind of wrestling this was.
As a result, in the end, the Great Khan of the Eastern Turks sent his eldest son who did not know who his son was, and the only person on the scene in the Tang Dynasty was Li Xian, the eldest son of the Prime Minister, who was about the same age.
Li Sanniang looked at Li Xian's behavior, and then looked at the Turkic prince's behavior on the opposite side. She felt that the outcome was 50-50.
Just as Li Sanniang had guessed, Li Xian and the Turkic little prince were evenly matched. After a long stalemate, they still couldn't tell the winner. In the end, the game ended in a draw.
"Emperor Tang, how about this?
Let’s have another fight, and use the scimitar on my waist as the prize. No matter who wins, this sword will be given to him! ”
"Oh?
Then I'll take the dagger I carry with me as a lucky draw.
Who is willing to play for Datang in the match? ”
This time on the East Turk side is the first warrior under the Great Khan. Li Sanniang’s head is about 1.9 meters tall, and he is as big and round as a bear.
However, even in the face of this kind of human bear, all the generals present in Datang actively asked for a fight.
When Emperor Wu saw this posture, she did not let the generals present appear, but instead sent out the commander of her Guards.
I really know this commander Li Sanniang!
It was Commander Xue Yao, whom we had met once before.
Xue Yao is not short either, he looks to be a man over six feet tall, but at this size he is somewhat weak against the Turkic warrior.
However, Li Sanniang doesn't think she will definitely lose. After all, wrestling still requires skills.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became enthusiastic. Emperor Wu's personal dagger must be a good thing. It's hard to say that it can cut iron like clay, but the symbolic meaning of this is extraordinary.
Moreover, if we face the Eastern Turks, it would be more meaningful if we win.
I don't know when, but there was a sound of war drums in the hall, and the "dong dong dong" drumbeats hit people's hearts.
