Full of dazzling
"The general is all set. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhao Ying walked to Huo Chengming's side and whispered to remind that everything was arranged properly and the banquet could begin.
"Eldest princess, here we go?" Huo Chengming asked the eldest princess to say, after all, she is the representative of the royal family here, and she can't be lazy.
"Da Sima, today is your birthday, you can arrange it." The eldest princess knew that he was giving face, but her weight was still clear.
"Next, the little girl will prepare songs and dances for everyone, help the fun, help the fun." Huo Chengming breathed a sigh of relief, and said to the guests present, thinking that he hoped to resolve the embarrassment just now through this next song and dance, and he didn't want to ruin Qingyue's reputation because of Huo Liuli.
"I have long heard that General Huo's daughter can sing and dance, and her talent is amazing, but I didn't expect to be able to see it today."
"Where, how can it be as good as you say, just understand some."
"General Huo, you are too modest."
"Yes, General Huo, let's start quickly."
"Good. And that's where it begins. Huo Chengming gave Zhao Ying a look on the side, Zhao Ying hurriedly ordered, the pianist began to play, and then several women hugged a woman in a gorgeous dance dress and came to the stage along with the music.
With the music, the woman danced to her heart's content in the circle surrounded by several women, Huo Liuli recognized at a glance that the person in the center of the stage was Huo Qingyue, but no matter how focused he danced, it always gave people a stiff and deliberate feeling, but it was another woman beside her, who was flexible and had some real kung fu, if they exchanged it, it was estimated that the dance effect would be much better, Huo Liuli thought, picked up the tea on the table and drank it.
"Here, Cher, this one looks delicious." Huo Liuli picked up the osmanthus cake on the table and put it in Wei Xue's hand.
"Li'er." Wei Xue hurriedly put it back. "Enjoy the singing and dancing, you see that no one has started yet."
"It's already started, you can eat it, don't worry, it's okay." Huo Liuli took the pastry and put it in his mouth, it was so sweet, and then took two more pieces to Wei Xue and Wei Yun.
"Eat, I guess you're hungry too." Yun Suniang spoke.
"Thank you, ma'am." Wei Yun, Wei Xue took it over.
"Pap, papa, pap" There was a burst of applause, and the flattering person immediately said: "This dance really opened the eyes of the lower officials, and the young lady of the General's Mansion is really as rumored, the country is beautiful and fragrant, and she has both ability and political integrity." ”
"yes, I'm waiting for an eye-opener." Hearing this, Huo Liuli almost laughed, these people are not appreciating it at all, they are just here to praise it, and they are also eye-opening, it was the big fight just now that opened his eyes.
"Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for your compliments. I have a gift for my father next. As he spoke, he glanced at the woman behind him, and the woman immediately took the gift prepared by Huo Qingyue from the hand of the maid behind her.
"Oh, and a gift?" Huo Chengming's mouth couldn't close when he smiled, although the expenses were all from himself, but the one his daughter gave must be a piece of filial piety.
"You see Daddy is happy." Huo Liuli pulled Yun Suniang with an unhappy face.
"As long as your dad is happy." Yun Suniang's eyes narrowed together when she looked at Huo Chengming's smile, and then she looked at Huo Liuli and laughed, but her eyes looked at Huo Chengming's reluctance to leave, and when she knew that Huo Chengming looked over, she immediately turned around and looked away, for fear that Huo Chengming would find out, which made Huo Liuli feel inexplicable. But it was also because of this that I found out that Huo Qingyue was likable, no matter how she did it secretly, she pretended to be so innocent on the surface, and she looked like a lady.
"Wei Xue, when Huo Qingyue's girl is finished, we will also go over." Huo Liuli pulled Wei Xue to discuss.
"Let's wait a little longer, if we wait for her to send us over, we may be compared to her, and we won't be able to take it." Wei Xue looked at Huo Qingyue's smugness, and pulled Huo Liuli to retreat.
No matter how good he sent it, it was just a thought, and the money spent was not earned by herself. No matter how light we send, it is also a blessing, no lighter than his Huo Qingyue's affection. ”
"Father! This is a bow and arrow that I have been searching for a long time from a foreign merchant. As the saying goes, a good saddle matches a good horse, and only such a good bow and arrow can be worthy of a hero like you, father. Huo Qingyue took the bow and arrow from the woman next to her and sent it to Huo Chengming's side.
"Okay, a good daughter is really filial, and she is very happy for her father, but this bow and arrow is not very suitable for her father, but her father will collect it well." Huo Chengming put away the bow and arrow with a smile, and then smiled at the guests behind him and said, "Everyone, you are smiling, the little girl is reckless." ”
"Where is this young lady's filial piety, it's too late for us to envy." The guests below arrived one after another, and although their expressions were still a little embarrassed, the compliments were very smooth.
"Father, in fact, I also prepared a gift for you, but it is not as good as Qingyue."
"I've also prepared gifts for me, as long as you have the heart." Huo Chengming said and inadvertently glanced at Huo Liuli, and when he saw Yun Suniang's gaze, he immediately returned to a smile on his face: "Whatever you give, my father likes it." ”
"Really?" The girl happily ran towards the maid just now, but the maid didn't look at her, it was estimated that she had been following Huo Qingyue for a long time, and there was no one in her eyes.
"Everyone's humble house has a little wine and food, I hope it will be with everyone's taste." While waiting for his gift, Huo Chengming still didn't forget the guests who were still eating dried fruits and fruits on the side, and hurriedly asked Yun Suniang to bring the prepared wine and food.
"Li'er, my mother is going to get busy first, you can sit here." When Yun Suniang left, she didn't forget to tell Huo Liuli.
"Okay, I know, you go first." Huo Liuli nodded and urged Yun Suniang to leave and supervise the arrival of the wine and food. Huo Liuli watched Yun Su Niang's departure, in fact, she was quite curious, someone else's family can be done with a housekeeper, but this dignified general's mansion is also a big family, and many things have to be arranged by the two ladies.
"Li'er, do you have any ideas?" Wei Yun saw the joy in Huo Liuli's eyes.
"Don't see through people so quickly, okay?" Huo Liuli looked at Wei Yun mischievously and smiled, and Wei Xue looked at her at a loss and didn't know what the two of them were talking about.
"Miss, do you still want to send what you have prepared?" Xiao Yu tiptoed to Huo Liuli's side and asked softly.
"If you don't send it, why should I do it. Did you bring everything? Obviously, Xiaoyu is also a little unconfident, Huo Liuli suddenly became angry, others don't believe it, forget it, she is her own girl.
"It's all here, where is Captain Yang helping to guard? Let's hurry up, there are a lot of people in the house tonight, and he still has to be in charge of guarding. ”
"Let's go! Here it goes. Huo Liuli followed Xiao Yu to hide by Wei Xue's side and jumped out, and when he approached Wei Yun, Huo Liuli stopped, whispered a few words to him, and jumped out quickly.
"Father, although this is an ordinary cloak, this is the fox skin you gave to your daughter, and her daughter made it with a stitch and thread, I hope you can like it."
"On such a hot day, you send this to your father." Huo Qingyue hurriedly accused.
"It will come in handy when it's cold in a few days, Xuan'er has worked hard, my father likes it very much, so you can also take a seat." Huo Chengming also put away his cloak and waited to chat with the guests below and taste the wine together.
"General" Wei Yun walked up.
"Yun'er, what's the matter?" Huo Chengming saw Wei Yun's abnormality, and saw that only Wei Xue was left sitting there, Huo Liuli didn't know when Huo Liuli disappeared again.
"It's Li'er, she also prepared gifts for you, as well as a performance."
"Where's she?"
"Prepare outside, and when you agree, he'll come in."
"Then let her in!" Huo Chengming's face was full of caution, and he didn't know what kind of fame this girl had made. But Wei Yun said it in front of all the guests, and he couldn't stop her from coming in.
"Da-da-da, da-da-da." Huo Liuli floated in humming music by herself, holding a big iron box in her hand.
"Wow, that's a great job." The people on the side said with admiration, and sighed in their hearts that this girl is really good at such kung fu at such a young age, and she is really famous.
"Li'er, what is this?" Looking at the approving eyes of the guests, Huo Chengming breathed a sigh of relief, although he was also taken aback, he couldn't believe that Huo Liuli actually floated in from outside the hall in one breath.
"You'll find out later." Huo Liuli smiled mischievously, then took two steps back, and bowed deeply to Huo Chengming, "Dad, today is your birthday, Qingyue and Xuan'er have both performed for you, so I will bring you a little fun." ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, the little woman is here to make a fool of herself. If the performance is not good, don't mind, if the performance is good, be sure to give some applause. Saying that, Huo Liuli patted himself twice, and then bowed deeply to the guests, and then started the performance.
"Da, da, lala." Huo Liuli began to match herself with music again, straightened her sleeves, danced lightly, and spun in a circle in the center of the hall, her clothes flew over and looked extraordinarily beautiful, as if a fairy had descended to earth, but the red marks on her face also appeared faintly in the rotation, which made Huo Chengming feel a little distressed, blaming herself for being too irrational and heavy at that time.
"I thought he had any ability, it turned out to be a circle, who wouldn't know this?" Huo Qingyue was unhappy on the side.
"It's not as good as our eldest lady's dancing, wait to see a good show, he thinks these ministers are so easy to fool, and she also learns when she sees the young lady dancing." Huo Qingyue's girl hurriedly comforted her.
"Although the circle just now is not very beautiful, maybe everyone here doesn't feel any difference." Huo Liuli stopped her spinning dance steps, slowly stood still, and held her forehead to make a feeling of dizziness.
"Miss, are you alright?" Xiao Yu hurriedly came up to help her.
"I'm fine, it's just a few laps, it's too fast, and my brain doesn't react a little bit." Huo Liuli gently pushed Xiao Yu aside.
"Haha, haha. This young lady was telling us jokes. A man of five years and three coarse people laughed, and the others also laughed inexplicably.
"Li'er, I'm very happy for my father today, and you've worked hard, take a seat." Huo Chengming said to Huo Liuli with a smile. I hope to give her a step, not to be embarrassed in this scene again, he can't hold his head up for her in front of many people, thinking that those ministers learn from her, he feels ironic.
"Dad, I haven't finished the show yet. Don't be in such a hurry, let's witness the miracle together. Huo Liuli wrote a big "Shou" in the air, but everyone else thought that he was drawing there indiscriminately, after all, it was the general's daughter, and it was okay to discuss it privately, after all, this was someone else's territory, even if she was messing around, she didn't dare to say it.
After the painting was completed, Huo Liuli respectfully saluted Huo Chengming, and said with a smile: Happy birthday father, I wish you a year and a year, a good health, a blessing like the East China Sea, and a longevity than Nanshan. As she spoke, she flicked her fingers and a big word appeared one step away from her, and the people who were watching it were dumbfounded, only then did she realize that she had underestimated this little girl just now.
"This." Huo Chengming looked at the longevity words floating in the air, and stayed there, when will she do this, isn't she a girl who doesn't know anything, she was beaten by herself today, and she still sits there quietly, and gives herself gifts, all kinds of etiquette are in place, and she gives the guests a new feeling, she has really grown up.
"Daddy, do you like it?" Huo Liuli asked coquettishly to Huo Chengming.
"I like it, I like it, my dad likes it very much." Huo Chengming watched Huo Liuli's tears continue to roll in his eyes, and nodded vigorously.
"My daughter has another gift for you!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and stroked the word Shou, and immediately the word turned into a bird like a living bird and followed Huo Liuli, flying towards the box in front of Huo Chengming, just a few times, the box bloomed like a flower, and a pink big Shou peach appeared on the table.
"It is." Huo Chengming looked at the unseen items on the table and asked.
"yes, I've never seen that."
"yes, what's it?"
"We haven't even seen the general, so we don't know."
"Sister, what is this?" The eldest princess's youngest son stumbled all the way over, hugged Huo Liuli's thighs and pointed to the things on the table and asked.
"Son." The eldest princess called lightly but did not move her son, and then said to Huo Chengming embarrassedly: "Don't be surprised. ”
"The eldest princess is not in the way, as long as the little boy does not dislike the little girl."
"Come, try my sister's handiwork." Huo Liuli reached out and hugged the little guy to the table.
"Li'er, this is."
"This is the first time that the bishop of Jin Fangzhai has taught me my craft." Huo Liuli smiled embarrassedly.
"And what was the performance?"
"It was taught by an eldest sister in the Dunhuang juggling class." Huo Liuli smiled and took out a knife from under the box, and Xiao Yu also brought a plate and spoon from the side. Dividing a large longevity peach into many small portions, she only saw that the longevity peach was made up of several layers, and when she looked at it from the side, she could see that there were different fruits. Of course, she didn't tell the truth, because she learned this in her dreams, and no one would believe it when she told anyone, so it was better to make it up herself to be convincing.
"Daddy, give." Huo Liuli respectfully handed the plate to Huo Chengming, and then put the rest into the big wooden board on the side with Xiao Yu, Huo Chengming hurriedly beckoned the two guards to follow, and carried the divided longevity peach to follow Huo Liuli.
"Come" Huo Liuli stretched out his hand, and the little boy immediately pounced, letting her carry her and walk back to the eldest princess's side, "Eldest princess, you taste it." The little boy gives you a fruity one. ”
"Thank you." The little guy smiled and ate it, and the eldest princess on the side hurriedly wiped what was standing in his mouth.
Then Huo Liuli took Xiao Yu to divide the other longevity peaches.
"It's really delicious, sweet, with a fresh fragrance of fruit, it melts in your mouth, and it's very good to be lightly cool." After tasting Huo Liuli's craftsmanship, the eldest princess was praised.
The guests who have already eaten the longevity peach have also come to praise one after another, and those who have not yet received it are also waiting with anticipation.
"Eldest princess, there is a sentence that the lower officials don't know whether to say it or not."
"If you have something to say, it's not that you don't have to be so restrained in the palace."
"The emperor's age is actually not young, there is not even a concubine in this harem, and the East Palace has been empty for a few years."
"This palace knows what you mean, and I will discuss it with the emperor when I go back."
"Hmph, I won't eat it, what delicious can she make." Huo Qingyue looked at almost all the guests and was now angry at Huo Liuli, and she couldn't wait to pull Huo Liuli over and give him a few slaps.
"Qingyue, it tastes really good." Xuan'er took a bite and sent another plate to Huo Qingyue, wanting her to taste it.
"Huo Zixuan, who are you helping to let you eat." Huo Qingyue went over and turned all the longevity peaches on the plate over to Xuan'er's body first. The sound of the plate breaking caught the eye of some.
"What's wrong with Xuan'er?" Huo Chengming looked at Huo Zixuan, and his clothes were stained with longevity peaches on his face, and he hurriedly asked with concern.
"Xuan'er accidentally knocked over the longevity peach brought by Liuli."
"Then let's get some clothes."
"Father, my daughter is a little uncomfortable, so let's step back first."
"Go ahead and get some rest."
"My daughter quit." Huo Zixuan retreated quietly, her head lowered very low, and tears flowed down her eyes.
Fortunately, Huo Liuli's cake became a topic, everyone didn't pay attention to what happened just now, and after sending the birthday Taoyun Suniang also came up with the wine and food of the birthday banquet, during the banquet, Huo Chengming and the guests talked about the wine, and the eldest princess looked at her son's appearance and smiled very happily.
Wei Yun and Wei Xue didn't send the gifts to the main hall in the end, and later, after the guests were all gone, Huo Liuli brought them to Huo Chengming, and then gave the gifts out.
When he received the gift, Huo Chengming was already a little drunk, so he laughed happily, "The sword is given to the hero." A few tears came out of the corners of his eyes, although Huo Chengming tried his best to hide it.
"General." Wei Yun said with concern: "General, you are drunk, it is better to go back and rest early." ”
"No, I'm not drunk, I'm more sober with a little drink." Huo Chengming patted Wei Yun's shoulder, and then said to Huo Liuli: "Li'er, you take Wei Xue to eat something again, I saw that you didn't eat anything just now." ”
"I'm not hungry." Huo Liuli stood there motionless.
"Li'er, I'm hungry, your craftsmanship is so good, let's go and see if you can eat it, if not, you can make me that longevity peach to taste." Wei Xue tried hard to persuade Huo Liuli to leave, he knew that the general intended to support them, but the stupid girl didn't know.
"Okay." Huo Liuli was very involuntary, but she still agreed, after all, Wei Xue had not praised herself so much.
"General, let's retire first." Wei Xue hurriedly pulled Huo Liuli away.
"Daddy, Brother Yun, let's go over first, if you have something to eat, I'll ask someone to send you some." Huo Liuli also took a sip of wine as soon as she was happy, and she was also a little dizzy.
"Be careful." Wei Xue supported Huo Liuli all the way, reminding Huo Liuli.
"Yun'er, sit with me."
"The general has something to say to Yun'er, right?"
"Yes, there are a lot of words, but I haven't found the right time."
"General."
"When there is no one, you still teach me Uncle Huo, how can I say that your father and I are also brothers from birth to death."
"General."
"Huh?"
"Uncle Huo."
"That's good, listening to your mouthfuls and generals' calls, they all alienate me."
"No, you are the reborn parents of our brother and sister, and we never dare to forget your great kindness."
"Yun'er, you're wrong, don't think like that. I am your father's brother, and his kindness to me cannot be repaid in this way, but most of all, I am your uncle, and I should take care of you. ”
"Uncle Huo."
"Uncle, it's not good, I haven't taken good care of you all these years, and you have suffered a lot and suffered a lot of grievances in the Huo family, right?"
"No, don't worry, uncle."
"Although my uncle is the big Sima of the court, I can't do many things, and I don't have much time to stay at home, and Zhao Ying is like that, so don't blame my uncle."
"Uncle Huo, you are serious, Mrs. takes good care of our brothers and sisters, and Li'er treats us as brothers and sisters, so we are really doing well, and you don't have to worry about us anymore."
"Madam, you mean Su Niang. Right! Fortunately, there is her at home. Do you know? Looking at the sword you gave me, I thought of your father. ”
"Father?"
"Yes, I guess it's been sixteen years, and you're still in your mother's womb. I don't know where he got a good sword, I like it so much, I look at it and I am greedy, it is a good sword, we are all generals like it very much. ”
"I haven't heard you talk about it."
"yes, I didn't dare mention them for so many years. I remember that it happened to be my birthday at that time, and he gave me the sword without thinking about it, and he said to me: "Famous, I will give it to you today, and this sword will protect you on behalf of my brother in the future, and you must use him to serve the country and make a name for yourself." ”
"Uncle, you are now a big Sima, and you have lived up to your father's expectations."
"yes, but he's gone." Huo Chengming looked at Wei Yun with tears coming out.
"Uncle." Wei Yun didn't expect that this seriousness, after the wind and waves, the big Sima who was above 10,000 people would cry like a child in front of him.
"I'm fine, you wait here for me, I'll be back soon." Huo Chengming relied on the strength given by the sword, stood up, and walked towards the study.
"Uncle." Wei Yun watched Huo Chengming walk crookedly, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him.
"Kid, I'm fine, just wait here." After speaking, he continued to walk towards the house step by step.
"Are you really okay?" Wei Yun asked with concern, but he didn't get Huo Chengming's reply, watching him just walk towards the study like that, I don't know how long I waited, Huo Chengming came back, and walked up with a gem-studded sword in his hand.
"Uncle."
"Come, Yun'er, today Uncle will hand over this sword to you."
"Uncle, Yun'er doesn't dare to ask for it." Wei Yun looked at this sword and knew that it was a good sword, and his status was not easy to accept.
"Come, take it." Huo Chengming grabbed Wei Yun's hand and put the sword over: "This can be regarded as the return of the object to its original owner, Yun'er, you also have to take it to lay down the future you want." ”
"Thank you, uncle, Yun'er has always taken you as a role model, and hopes to become a big hero like you in the future."
"Uncle, in fact, I also have such thoughts, you know that none of my uncle's sons are decent, but you are very similar to me, more like your father back then, so I invited Captain Yang, you have to learn from him well, and after a while, I will send you to the army through a relationship, I don't know if you are willing?"
"Yun'er is willing, but can I take her, little sister?"
"Cher is still too young to be in the army. Let's let her accompany Su Niang in the house, it is estimated that Li'er will go to Taibai Mountain in a few days. ”
"Li'er going to Taibai Mountain?"
"Yes, Su Niang wants her to go to Taibai Mountain for training. So let Xue'er stay, and when you return victoriously one day, your uncle will definitely help you find another house and find a wishful husband for Xue'er. ”
"Thank you, uncle, I will live up to your expectations."
"That's good, that's worthy of your father. Let's go back early, I'll go to the study again, and I'll go to court tomorrow. ”
"Uncle, you should also rest early, pay attention to your body, don't be too tired."
"I know, let's go." As he spoke, he walked towards the brightly lit study.
When Wei Yun went to look for Wei Xue, Huo Liuli had already slept very deeply, and Yun Suniang hadn't come back yet, so she watched it quietly and went back with Wei Xue. When he heard Huo Chengming's arrangement, he was so excited in his heart, he could finally use his own strength to work hard, break through, and when he became famous in the future, he could give Xue'er a good life, of course, he hoped that he would be worthy of Huo Liuli at that time, give her a good life, and take care of her for a lifetime.
