Chapter 290: A Real Competition
Seeing the prince leave, many people breathed a sigh of relief, as a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, he was naturally afraid of a violent conflict between the emperor and the prince, which was a major event involving the stability of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Longji did not continue to attack, mainly because there were foreign envoys present today, and the emperor valued face very much and did not want to embarrass in front of outsiders.
The rest of the princes were not as individual as Li Ying, and they honestly sat down to their seats under the guidance of eunuchs, but they were disheveled after taking off their armor, and they couldn't tidy up, so they looked a little embarrassed.
Among these people, Yang Yun did not find Li Mao's figure.
As Li Linfu announced the start of the banquet, the atmosphere in the hall began to become warm, but many people were beating drums in their hearts, and they were worried that the Tang Dynasty would repeat the changes in the palace.
As soon as the banquet comes up, there is a toasting session.
Li Linfu seemed to be nothing, and asked the princes and ministers to toast Li Longji, and the most important thing in the toast was to congratulate Li Longji on his marriage to the immortal family.
The guests present included both foreign envoys and famous Taoist priests in the Tang Dynasty, and this time it was more like a gathering between the emperor and the Taoist family.
“…… I have always admired the Tao, and now I have finally been rewarded, the Nine Heavens of the Nine Heavens Xuanqing Xuannu descended to the world, I am fortunate to be the first emperor in the world to follow the good of the immortal Qin and Jin, what an honor? You and others are all my courtiers, and then we should celebrate with the whole world. Li Longji drank a few glasses of yellow soup, a little fluttery, standing there, shaking his head with a wine glass and talking, his eyes slightly closed, falling into a kind of reverie.
He does not sit, and neither can those who are present.
"Hmph-"
At this moment, suddenly there was a very discordant cold snort from the banquet, and the sound was so loud that everyone could hear it clearly.
As a courtier, he naturally chooses to turn a deaf ear.
No matter who doesn't know each other, they can't show surprise in front of the emperor.
Li Longji opened his eyes, looked around, and asked with interest, "Is there anyone who is not convinced?" But how did the Gentile envoys disagree? ”
Everyone looked at the cold snort before, and the place where they saw was Benbo Taibao sitting at the end of the seat...... When everyone in the hall stood up, he sat upright, looking too maverick, and all the people present in Datang today looked at him angrily.
It's this guy again!
The Tubo people are really not good at stubble, and they still want to make trouble when they arrive at the court banquet of the Tang Dynasty!?
I don't know how to write the word "death"?
Li Linfu saw that the emperor was not angry, and as the person who presided over the banquet, he also seemed to have a modest attitude, and asked with a smile: "Tubo National Teacher, my Tang Dynasty Emperor respects you, so I let you come to the banquet, not only do you not respect the son of today, but also show people with such an attitude, but you want to cause trouble at the banquet?" ”
They all thought that Ben Bo Taibao would come out to provoke, but who knew that he stood up, clasped his hands together, and had a modest attitude: "If it wasn't my voice, how could I say that I was disrespectful to the Tang Emperor?" ”
Now people are piling up fryers.
Obviously it's this guy, everyone present stood up, he didn't move like a mountain, and the voice came from his side, how could this monk be embarrassed to deny it?
Li Linfu didn't expect Ben Bo Taibao to say this, according to Ben Bo Taibao's identity as the national teacher of Tubo, he would never dare to admit that he had done something, but he felt that it must have been Ben Bo Taibao's doing.
"Your Majesty, look ......"
Li Linfu couldn't express his position, so he had to turn around and ask Li Longji.
Li Longji smiled and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, it's over, the banquet continues, let's go on the show." ”
Li Linfu mentioned his spirit, no longer took Benbo Taibao trouble, and said with a smile: "You guys are seated, and there will be a wonderful performance right away to cheer you up." ”
……
……
The music sounded, sixty dancing girls in white long skirts came like fairy Lingbo, accompanied by the melodious chime bell and the melodious sheng flute, dancing slowly in the main hall, the posture was wonderful, the dancing posture was graceful, dozens of singers spit out their lips, and the beautiful tune echoed in the main hall.
Beauty is like jade, and the wine is sweet.
The music is like a jumping bead shaking jade, the tune is like the sound of heaven, hundreds of guests in the hall are drunk, shaking their heads lightly, and the whole hall is immersed in the ethereal fairyland.
One song, another song, four songs in a row, the music suddenly became excited.
Among the many dancing girls, Aunt Gongsun suddenly raised her sword and came out, and the bright sword was terrifying, but those who were interested could see that it was just a decorative sword with a reflective effect, not made of metal.
This time, Aunt Gongsun's performance can be said to be perfect, and the performance is very good...... She can easily jump on top of the heads of other dancers, and leap back and forth between the high platform and the ground, while the sword in her hand keeps picking out sword flowers.
There was a sound of "swish" breaking the air in the air, even if the long sword was fake, it still created a momentum no less than the real sword, and the cold cold light reflected the surrounding candle flames, making the atmosphere of the scene extremely tense.
Yang Yun was very relaxed, letting go of his body and mind, and enjoying the dance performance in front of him that represented the highest artistic achievement of the Tang Dynasty.
He unconsciously compared the current performance with the sword dance he had seen at noon, and felt that the performance characteristics in front of him were more prominent, Gongsun Auntie made a gesture, tightly fitted, as if the sword curtain was unfolded, and the water could not be poured in, but he vaguely felt that this sword technique was not perfect, obviously many tricks can be opened and closed, killing the enemy with one blow, but awkwardly closing the momentum, if facing the enemy, it is likely to be taken advantage of by the enemy, and the block in the move was originally used as a defense, but after the move, several empty doors were exposed in front of the body.
Yang Yun thought to himself: "Could it be that Aunt Gongsun's sword dance is just a show, I was too careful before?" ”
After a grand palace group dance performance, everyone present was stunned, especially in the final climax, even the generals who were good at swordsmanship were full of admiration for the superb swordsmanship shown by the princess in front of them.
The title of Gongsun Auntie's first dancer in the world is really well deserved.
After the performance of Aunt Gongsun was completed, today's palace dance performance was over, and everyone present applauded warmly, and even Li Longji looked happy and got up to toast the guests present.
The emperor toasted, and another round of compliments was ushered in.
Those princes and ministers came out and said a bunch of sycophants, frequently mentioning that Li Longji's marriage with the Nine Heavens Xuannu was a specific manifestation of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, which made Li Longji proud and had a fluttering pleasure.
"Father, the child is grateful for your respect for Taoism, and specially found a famous teacher to learn a few Taoist techniques, and I want to show it to you and the guests present."
Princess Xianyi was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but stand up and volunteered.
Li Longji was full of smiles, obviously he had long known that his daughter was going to come out to perform, and asked with a smile: "There are so many Taoist masters present, why don't you get an axe?" ”
Princess Xianyi looked confident: "The opportunity is rare, it is precisely because there are so many famous people gathered that Xianyi wants to ask the Fang family present for advice." ”
"Hmm."
Li Longji nodded and agreed to his daughter's request.
Li Linfu said loudly: "Lord Xianyi mainly uses some small Taoist methods to ask for advice from all famous Taoist teachers, Your Royal Highness Princess, please come to the front." ”
Princess Xianyi didn't stay in her seat, and when she walked out, she gave Yang Yun a special glance and hinted that he helped.
In fact, Princess Xianyi doesn't know any spells at all, in front of so many people, if she boasts about Haikou and doesn't show it, she will be very embarrassed, her eyes are actually warning Yang Yun, you must fully cooperate with what you promised me, otherwise I will be sad, and you don't want to be comfortable.
In the eyes of everyone, Princess Xianyi walked to Li Linfu's side, which was also the head of the guest, suddenly raised her hand, pointed to Benbo Taibao in the direction of the last seat, and said coquettishly: "Tubo National Teacher, today I will use a little Taoism I have learned to compete with you, do you dare to fight?" ”
"Huh?!"
A word almost shocked the jaws of those present.
I thought that Princess Xianyi just came out to use a small trick to make everyone happy, and then the big guy, whether he understood it or not, would echo it and say that it was amazing, and then reveal the matter in his heart.
The vanity of the little princess was satisfied, and everyone was okay with their faces, and they were happy.
Who knew that the little princess was too restless, and she didn't perform any tricks, so she came up to challenge Benpo Taibao...... Isn't this asking for trouble?
"Your Royal Highness Princess, no, never!"
Li Linfu stood beside Princess Xianyi, heard the princess's words, and hurriedly stopped her.
Concubine Wu Hui's voice also came from behind Princess Xianyi: "Xianyi, don't mess around." ”
Princess Xianyi's face was full of perseverance: "I am the princess of the Tang Dynasty, the daughter of my father, the safety of the Tang Dynasty is closely related to me, today there is a Tubo national teacher who is rude to my Tang monarchs and ministers, I will come out for my father and the people of the Tang Dynasty to teach him a lesson, even if I lose, I have done my best, which shows that my people of the Tang Dynasty have not flinched and are afraid." ”
This was said quite beautifully, and everyone present felt that although the princess was young, she had a backbone.
But the problem is that everyone knows that Princess Xianyi is not Ben Bo Taibao's opponent, and he also knows that Ben Bo Taibao doesn't know each other at all, so he broke the agreement when he fought with the stand-in of the Nine Heavens Xuannu in time, and killed the killer, and after failing, he tried to persuade the Nine Heavens Xuannu to protect the Tubo people.
This product is definitely not a promising Zen master who is profound, upright and bright, and in the eyes of many people, this is simply a despicable and shameless villain.
If the princess fights against her, her life is likely to be in danger if she loses.
"Tubo National Teacher, don't you dare to fight?"
Princess Xianyi asked in an aggressive tone.
Ben Bo Taibao got up at the end of the table under the gaze of everyone, and took two steps forward, surrounded by Qianniuwei like a great enemy, today he was the most unstable factor at the banquet, the palace guards had long regarded him as a dangerous element, and he could not relax for a moment, and now he did not dare to be careless when he saw that he had any abnormal movements.
"Princess Datang, why do you embarrass me? You are no match for me. "Ben Po Taibao didn't want to fight.
Obviously, this is a thankless job to win or lose.
Winning can't prove anything, but it will fulfill the princess's loyalty and righteousness, and he can't be a killer yet, otherwise he won't be able to get out of this palace by himself.
If he loses, he will lose face, and he will not accept it.
And every time he makes a move, there is an indomitable momentum around his body, and even he can't stop in time, which means that once he fights with Princess Xianyi, he has to fight for a victory.
"Then you come here, kneel down with my father, and I will admit defeat when you do, and this matter will be over." Princess Xianyi continued to press forward step by step.
"Haha."
There was laughter.
It's really a morale boost, no matter if you win or lose, in short, Datang's face has been recovered, and it is extremely happy to make it difficult for this monk who doesn't know what to do to ride a tiger.
This is equivalent to making a mouth cannon first, using the method of spiritual victory to unilaterally declare that you have won.
Benbo Taibao didn't eat this, and said loudly: "Since Princess Datang insists, then I can only offend." ”
said that he really walked to the center of the field and wanted to fight against Princess Xianyi.
Seeing this situation, Li Longji hurriedly stopped: "Xianyi, I understand your thoughts, but this matter should be handled by the Taoist family, it should definitely not be you, I can't let you have any mistakes." ”
Princess Xianyi turned her head and saluted Li Longji with a smile: "Father, you have always doted on your daughter, outsiders say that your daughter is a delicate flower born in a greenhouse without wind and frost, and she can't afford to be so favored by you, today my daughter wants to prove that I am the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and I have to assume the responsibility of the princess, even if there is an accident today, I die on the spot, then I can only blame my daughter for not being good at learning, and I hope that my father will fulfill his daughter's sincere heart." ”
"Huh?"
Li Longji never thought that his daughter who had just arrived at Ji Lu would make such a generous statement.
"If my father does not agree, people from other countries will say, I Datang has no faith in his words, but will fall into the prestige of Datang, today I will use what I have learned to really compete with the Tubo national teacher, and I will not lose the face of my Datang if I lose."
Princess Xianyi said with a firm expression.
