Chapter 70: Asking for Gifts

Hearing that the singing and dancing in the front hall had come to an end, Shang Shang let out a breath and stood up, put on a purple soft smoke, tied the short sword that Liu Xianglan made for her to her on her left elbow, and patted it again to make sure that it would not fall out, so he tied the belt around his waist and pulled the robe carefully.

With the sound of footsteps at the entrance of the side hall, the singers who performed the first song in the hall came back one after another, and they knew that they must be a little nervous when they looked like they were sweating.

"How? Is the emperor satisfied with your singing and dancing? Liu Xianglan saw the singers coming down, and hurriedly pulled the leading Qin Yue and asked.

"The emperor still looks satisfied, and the faces of Concubine Wei and Concubine Xu Xian are also fine." Qin Yue replied softly, she is the first in the palace workshop, and she has always been the main pillar in the past when there are banquets, this time the merchant has a song approved by the emperor, so she was not allowed to be the protagonist, but she also left the first opportunity to play, which is to save some face for the palace workshop.

"That's good!" Liu Xianglan patted her chest, turned her head and said to Shang Shang: "Shang Shang, it's your turn, go quickly!" After that, he pushed the merchant forward, and beckoned the singer of the chorus to line up one by one and went to the front hall.

Shang Shang led a group of singers into the main hall, bowed three times and bowed nine times to the Tang Emperor, stood in their respective positions, and began to dance.

With the tapping of the merchant cloud board, the familiar music sounded in the hall, and after a period of passing through the door, the merchant opened his lips lightly, and the clear singing voice flowed out from the lips, overflowing the hall.

"A big river has wide waves, the wind blows the fragrance of rice and flowers on both banks, my family lives on the shore, I am used to hearing the trumpet of the captain, and I am used to seeing the white sails on the ship------" The merchant stepped on the rhyme, waving the long sleeves of the purple soft smoke, and the fine painting between the eyebrows and eyes was charming, and the wind outside the hall blew in through the wide open window, and the slender waist that danced with the song was wrapped in the soft smoke like smoke, and the graceful winding mian seemed to be wrapped in flowing water, soft as boneless.

The singers behind the merchants swayed their bodies left and right with the rhyme, and the light green dresses were refracted into the sunlight of the hall, like a piece of blue water, meandering and flowing, and the whole song spread through the entire hall like a tide, washing over everyone's ears, leaving a wonderful resonance.

Although it is not the first time to hear Shang Shang sing this song, every time he hears it, it always gives people a new feeling, and the people in the entire hall, including Li Shimin, who is high on the throne, are drunk in this song. It seems that I really saw a magnificent river in front of me, and the girl who lived by the river was working at sunrise and resting at sunset, casting nets and fishing, and singing tactfully.

This beautiful and peaceful scene is projected like a silent movie in almost everyone's heart, making people want to indulge in it, be a comfortable and prosperous Shengdou small people under the prosperous world, spend the days with their wives and children, and grow old slowly.

At the end of the song, the music suddenly changed, and the gentle and tactful sound of the flute gradually fell silent, followed by a strong zheng, sandwiched with the sound of gold and stone, faintly meaning of the war of Jin Ge Iron Horse.

The businessman's expression changed, and his originally soft expression suddenly became like water, and his face was as cold as frost. The short sword hidden in the elbow "poof" came out of the box with a sound, flashing with a cold light, in order to facilitate the hiding of the sword, the merchant finally chose the short sword, so that in the soft dance in the early section, the sword can be hidden in the elbow, which will not affect the first half of the dance, in order to strive for realism, this sword is still open to the front, and the cold air at the edge of the sword is eye-catching.

The merchant ripped off the strap of his robe, and put the soft soft smoke on the ground, in the music that suddenly became strong and the high-pitched chorus of the chorus, a fiery red suit, whirling and dancing, the cold light of the sword blade loomed in the flaming red dance clothes, and the forbearance was even more frightening!

Facing the leader of the nine surnames of Tiele of the merchants, under the amazing dancing of the merchants, there was a faint cold sweat on his forehead. Facing this red-clothed dancer head-on, Rao is they have been in battle for a long time, but they still feel shuddering. It's just a singer! can have such a momentum of no return! If it is really against the millions of soldiers of Datang on the battlefield, what will be the situation? It's heart-pounding to think about!

The leader of the Yao Luo Ge clan is over fifty years old, and he wears a black moire arrow sleeve beard suit, and sits at the head of the nine surnames. This entry into the Tang Dynasty was initiated by him, but even if they came to Chang'an, these people in the clan were not very peaceful, and they were very picky and domineering in the pavilion where the Tang Emperor placed them.

But God knows, when he entered those beautifully furnished houses, he really realized from the bottom of his heart the difference between the behemoth of the Tang Dynasty and the barren land where the nine surnamed Tiele lived. Imagine how their projectile land is the enemy of the Tang Dynasty, which is located in the Central Plains and has a vast land?

After this trip to Chang'an, Yao Luo Ge completely understood why when he was young, his father had yearned for the Central Plains so much, it turned out that the mountains, the water, and the people here were really so beautiful! Among the leaders of the nine surnames, it was not the Yao Luo Ge clan who had this thought, but there were also people who were not convinced, and the beauty of the merchant completely aroused his ambition.

Although the difference in strength between the two clans is not too far, but among the nine surnames, Hu Luge has not been as popular as Yao Luoge, and every time there is a big discussion in the clan, it is always respected by Yao Luoge. This made Hu Luge, who was not confused, extremely dissatisfied.

This time, he came to the Tang Dynasty with the Yao Luo Ge clan to pay tribute, and it was also approved by most of the clan assembly, so he had to accompany him. But the abundance of the Tang Dynasty seen along the way is really eye-catching, those grains in the fields that rise and fall in the wind, those beautiful mountains and rivers, those fair-skinned and bewitching women, all burn his heart like a fire.

This should be the place where the big leader of his Hu Luge clan lives, with fat water and grass, beautiful houses and fields, and beautiful women, such a world should be his! And Li Shimin ---- this useless mongrel (the Li royal family has Xianbei Hu blood)! What qualifications are there to sit on such a great country?

Hu Luge's brown eyes stared at the merchant in the whirling dance, as if he wanted to see her delicate figure into his eyes and swallow it in his stomach, while secretly making an idea in his heart, this dancing girl is so beautiful, he must take her into his pocket and become his forbidden belly! As soon as he thought of her moaning and begging begging beneath him, he felt his body burn like fire, and an irrepressible hope roared to rush out of his body.

The merchant ended the whole dance with a crisp and neat finish, and stood quietly in the middle of the main hall with a slight respite. The chorus singers also stopped swaying as the music stopped, everything was so quiet, even the sound of the wind blowing was so clear.

Li Shimin was the first to wake up from his stunned state, and took the lead in applauding, and Concubine Wei and Concubine Xu, who were sitting at the bottom, were a little flushed and emotional. It was the first time they had seen such a song and dance with a strong melody, and although they had heard it mentioned by the female officials in the palace, they all felt that it might not be as good as the legend when they had never seen it with their own eyes, until they saw it with their own eyes, and they knew that the legend was not as good as the one-tenth and twelfth of what they had seen with their own eyes. For a while, I have a good impression of businessmen, and a woman who can dance like this must be extraordinary!

The courtiers in the palace applauded when they saw Li Shimin taking the lead, and they applauded one after another. The leaders of Tiele were also salivating, and their hands kept clapping.

The merchant relented in applause, thanked the emperor with a group of singers, and then retreated from the palace. Hu Luge's aggressive gaze kept chasing after Shang Shang until he could no longer see it, and then he couldn't get enough of it.

"Your Majesty! This singer who does sword dancing and the previous singer who does soft dancing are two completely different styles! It can be seen that the women of Datang are really amorous, and they are good at winning! The great leader of the Yao Luo Ge clan stood up and touched his chest with one hand, bowed slightly, and said extremely respectfully.

"Hehehe! Eliba! You just watched the two singers, so you said this, there are a lot of singers behind this! Li Shimin couldn't help laughing, as an emperor, of course he could see that Yao Luoge's words were indeed from the bottom of his heart!

"The following dance is a song made by me myself, with men doing the dance, Aiqing should take a good look!" Li Shimin pressed it across the void, and motioned to Eliba, the leader of Yaoluoge, to sit down in peace, and the next song "King Qin Breaking Array Music" is his painstaking work, I believe that after Eliba sees it, his surrender will be more thorough!

"We'll see!" Yao Luoge sat down respectfully, took a sip of the wine cup on the low table, and waited for the arrival of the next dance.

Li Zhi, who was sitting opposite Yao Luoge, nodded to Eliba with a smile, but the corner of his eye was looking at Hu Luge, who was sitting under Yao Luoge.

Since Shang Shang took off his coat and did a sword dance, this man's eyes have never left her, and the naked look in his eyes made him a little frightened. The man made no secret of his intentions from beginning to end.

Although Li Zhi always instructed them to be as patient as possible, and did not want to make the already foregone matter of submission a foregone conclusion at this time, almost every time there was the shadow of the leader of Hu Luge, and the fool could see that this was a man with a completely different purpose from Yao Luoge.

It seems that it is time to resort to some means against this man! Li Zhi smiled gently, and raised the fine porcelain cup in his hand at Yao Luoge. Otherwise, isn't this Hu Duge going to be no one in my Tang Dynasty?

As the majestic atmosphere and the killing aura of "King Qin's Breaking Array Music" came to an end, except for Hu Luge, the faces of each of the nine surnamed leaders turned a little pale. Even the face of Hu Luge, who has always been arrogant, is a little ugly. No one expected that the singing and dancing of just a group of male kabuki could have such a powerful momentum.

Is the momentum displayed by these men the momentum of the Tang Emperor's Tiger and Wolf Division? Or will a real army of tigers and wolves be more bloodthirsty, belligerent, and invincible on the battlefield? All the big chiefs gasped in their hearts.

Li Shimin was on the throne, and the expression on his face was unfathomable. This is exactly what he wants, he wants to deter these foreigners, so that all men will be obedient subjects under his rule!

When all the Maiko withdrew from the hall, Yao Luoge breathed a sigh of relief, if the sword dance of the merchant gave him a shock, then King Qin's Breaking Array was completely frightened, how could a Tang Dynasty like this be shaken by his little Tie Le?

"I wonder how Eliba feels? This Qin King's broken formation is still eye-catching? Li Shimin affectionately called Yao Luoge's name, and his words were kind.

"The emperor is really a genius of heaven, not only governing the country well, but also very proficient in music, although the minister does not understand the music, but also feels that this song and dance are very similar to the atmosphere of the heavenly dynasty." Yao Luo Ge stroked his chest with one hand, and said cautiously, after watching such a song and dance, he couldn't help but be careless again, such an emperor is not something he can afford to provoke.

Hu Luge looked at Yao Luo Ge with a cautious face with some disdain, just a song and dance, which could scare him like this! He couldn't help but snort coldly in his nose.

Li Shimin looked at it from a distance, Hu Tange's expression was in his eyes, and he couldn't help sneering in his heart, and secretly said that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. On his face, he said more gently: "Does the leader of Hu Luge have a high opinion? ”

Hu Luge didn't expect Li Shimin to ask this, he was stunned, but then stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I Hu Luge doesn't know any music, I just think this song is good, Hu Luge was born and doesn't like men to sing and dance, but he likes women very much, if the emperor can give Hu Luge a woman who is suitable for sword dance, Hu Luge will feel very good!" ”

Hearing Li Shimin's question, the people in the hall pricked up their ears to listen to how this Hu Duge answered, who expected him to say a word of begging, and the hall was immediately silent.

If there are some things in the book that are inconsistent with historical facts, please don't pay too much attention to the officials, I have checked the information for a long time, and I have not been able to find the information such as the pavilion where foreign tributes are placed. Please don't be too serious! Thank you
