Since Zhu Yang said so, he would not be reluctant. Dao Mudan let Zhu Yang taste several kinds of food, ordered someone to bring wine and a plate of meat, put it in front of Zhu Yang and said, "Your Highness tastes the rice wine that our Meng raised." There is also this meat, which is the pickled beef head meat raised by our Meng, which is crispy, tender and sour, spicy and cool, and is very suitable for wine. ”

"Taste it alone." Zhu Yang took a sip of wine as he spoke, picked up the pickled beef head meat and tasted it, and said, "This wine is just ordinary." Xiao Cui," he turned his head and instructed the guards behind him, "Didn't Gu bring some Shaoxing rice wine?" You go and get it. ”

He turned his head to Dao Mu Dan and continued: "But this marinated beef head meat has a unique flavor, which is very good." ”

"But how do you eat so much beef here? The Ming Dynasty forbade the killing of cattle in the Central Plains, although it is forbidden here for you, but it is better to eat less beef. ”

Dao Mudan immediately said: "Yes, yes, Your Highness." ”

Si Renfa and Mu Chu and the others laughed secretly on the side, and he slapped the horse's ass on the horse's leg.

But they quickly changed their minds. Although Zhu Yang said that they should eat less beef, he stuffed the beef into his mouth with wine, how could he eat less beef?

Dao Mudan also suspected that he had made a mistake, but when he saw that Zhu Yang was still eating beef, he was relieved.

After a while, Xiao Cui's guards brought Shaoxing rice wine, and Zhu Yang asked the guards to give some to everyone, and said to the generals and local officials present: "This is the Shaoxing rice wine that Gu snatched from Mu Sheng, can you taste it?" ”

There are few people who lead troops to fight without drinking, so these local officials have a bowl; The generals still remembered the etiquette at this time, and thanked Zhu Yang before they began to drink.

"Your Highness, this wine is good, where is it produced? Shaoxing? Not far from Yunnan? I want to buy some. The marquis's Tuguan sword took a sip and said first.

"Yes, Your Highness, this wine is really good, where can I buy it?" Meng Ding's Tuguan Dao Ming also said.

"Haha, Shaoxing is far away from Yunnan. Haven't any of you ever been to the capital? Shaoxing is hundreds of miles south of the capital. If you want to buy it yourself, you can't buy it. Zhu Yang said with a smile.

"It's far enough in the capital." Lijiang's Mu Qi said. He once followed his father to the capital, when they traveled by land from Lijiang to Kunming, from Kunming to Changsha by boat, and then took a long boat to the capital, the whole journey took more than three months, more than 10,000 miles. It was only after this that their Mu family became completely honest. The Ming Dynasty is too big, the population is too large, and the people are too rich, although every time there is a war in Yunnan, it is only tens of thousands of people, but if millions of people can be sent to Yunnan, their Mu family is definitely not an opponent.

"Didn't any merchant transport Shaoxing rice wine to Kunming to sell?" A local official with a high degree of sinicization, Dao Meng Guang of Zhenkangzhou asked.

"It's too far, it's too difficult to transport wine from Shaoxing to Kunming, and there won't be any businessmen doing such business. Anyway, I haven't seen it in Kunming. Even if there are merchants who bring rice wine over, it is rice wine produced in Bashu, Liangguang and Huguang, and there is no Shaoxing. Chu Jie said.

The local officials present were a little depressed when they heard that there was no rice wine from Shaoxing that could be bought. Seeing this scene, Zhu Yang said: "There are still some solitary ones, and they exist in Yongchang." When you come back from this battle, you will be rewarded. And he distributed all the Shaoxing rice wine he brought over this time to the local officials and military generals. For for the time being there was wine again, and the local officials were in high spirits again.

At this time, Dao Mudan saw his son Dao Siluan gesturing to him, and he immediately said to Zhu Yan: "Your Highness, how can you drink wine and eat meat without singing and dancing, and the minister immediately let the people who have been prepared start performing songs and dances." Seeing Zhu Yang's expression of no objection, he waved his hand and asked the performers who had been waiting for a while to come forward to perform.

"Your Highness, this is our Mengyang's Gaduo Dance." "Duo" is a kind of mythical beast that we circulate here, with a lion's head, a dog's mouth, antlers, a long neck, and fine hair. Because he wants to imitate a mythical beast, he dances with such props. Dao Mudan introduced.

Zhu Yang didn't like it very much, but when he saw such a dance for the first time, he was a little curious, and watched while taking a sip of wine.

When the dance was finished, the performers stepped back, and a dozen young men and women with garlands walked to the middle, and when the music began, they began to dance the other dances.

"Your Highness, this is our garland dance here, a collective dance of young people, very brisk. It is said that once upon a time, there was a poor young man, when he went to the dam to catch the pendulum, he felt that his clothes were in tatters, so he picked many flowers and tied them into garlands and put them on his body, and after coming down the mountain, he danced to the sound of the elephant's foot drum, and a girl fell in love with him, and sang along with his dance, and the wreath dance was born. Dao Mu Dan said again.

Zhu Yang has been in Yunnan for a while, and knows that the ethnic atmosphere in the southwest is not as conservative as that of the Han people, and it is normal for men and women to get together to sing and dance, and it is not like this for Lehu. But he is still a little uncomfortable, although he appreciates dance, he will never let his daughter dance this kind of dance.

Si Renfa and others are also appreciating. Although there are these dances everywhere, there are some subtle differences that are not exactly the same, so they can't take their eyes off it.

After that, they performed the traditional fish dance of the Dai nationality, the Dapeng bird dance, and the double-sided drumming. At this time, it was not early, Dao Mu Dan saw that Zhu Yang was already a little sleepy, so he hurriedly gestured to Dao Siluan, and after a woman walked to the center of the clearing, she said to Zhu Luan: "Your Highness, the next thing to be performed is our most traditional and popular dance, the Peacock Dance." ”

"Oh, take a good look at it." Zhu Yang sat up straight and looked at it.

As the music played, the woman standing in the middle of the clearing began to writhe and dance. The peacock dance has a relatively fixed performance program, mostly imitating the peacock flying out of the nest, sensitive visual exploration, walking safely, looking for water, drinking water, playing in the water, bathing, shaking wings, drying wings, spreading wings and comparing beauty with all things, free and happy flight, etc.

Zhu Yang has also been famous for the peacock dance for a long time, and when he saw the real peacock dance at this time, he stared intently. Dao Mudan asked with a smile, "What does Your Highness think?" ”

"The dancing is good, and the dancing people are good." Zhu Yang said. Dao Mu Dan smiled.

But if Dao Mudan asked Si Renfa this question, Si Renfa would only answer him with four words: "Crazy." ”

From the very beginning, the dance arranged by Dao Mu Dan was not right. The Garland Dance and the Gado Dance are both dances that are performed only on festivals, and it is not appropriate to perform them on non-festival days.

Even if Dao Mu Dan uses these high-standard dances to entertain Zhu Yang in order to deliberately pat on the back, the problem of this peacock dance is too obvious, because the peacock dance should be danced by men!

Of course, this does not mean that women cannot dance the peacock dance, but if the purpose is to perform the best dance, men who dance regularly on weekdays are of course more skilled than women, and men should be used for such important occasions.

Si Renfa already had a vague guess in his heart.

In a short time, a dance was completed, but the dancers did not leave, and dozens of young men and women walked into the clearing.

Dao Mudan said to Zhu Yang: "Your Highness, according to our rules here, the last dance is the Companion Light Dance that everyone dances together. This dance is very simple and can be performed by both children and the elderly. As he spoke, the men and women in the room were already jumping to the beat.

Zhu Yang looked at it carefully, and it was indeed very simple.

Seeing that Zhu Yang did not show an impatient expression, Dao Mudan continued: "Your Highness, according to our rules here, we want to invite the most distinguished guests to dance, I don't know ...... Your Highness" Dao Mudan said. He didn't finish his sentence, leaving three points of leeway.

However, Zhu Yang is only twenty-three years old this year, one year younger than Yun Xi, he is still a young man, and he has a high acceptance of different customs. ”

Dao Mu Dan's face was happy, but the guards behind him were shocked and said to Zhu Yan: "Your Highness,......"

"Needless to say." Zhu Yang stopped them. Of course, he knew what his guards were going to say, nothing more than safety and the like, dancing in the arena, there was no guarantee of safety.

But he thinks that Meng Yang Tusi Dao Mu Dan is not a fool. Although he is the king of the Min Domain, the ruler of this land, there is a more noble ruler above him, it is meaningless for Dao Mu Dan to kill him, and it will not stop the expansion of the Ming Dynasty in this area, but it will make Yun Xi angry and send a large number of troops to crusade against them, and Meng Yang Tusi may be completely wiped out.

Therefore, Dao Mu Dan actually cares more about his safety than himself, and those who can get close to him must be very loyal people, so he doesn't have to worry.

Zhu Yang walked into the clearing, stood in a vacant place, and jumped up imitating the people around him. However, although the dance is very simple, it is not so easy to learn.

Suddenly, a man walked up to him and said to him in stiff Chinese, "Follow me." It was a woman's voice.

Zhu Yang hurriedly looked up. I saw a woman with a beautiful face standing next to him. This woman looks good, although she is not very beautiful, but she also has seven or eight colors, and with that completely different style from Han women, she is also very beautiful.

Zhu Yang immediately noticed that she was wearing the same clothes that the woman who danced the peacock dance just now. 'This is ......,' Zhu Yang thought in his heart.

But the woman didn't care what he was thinking, and took his hand and taught him to dance.

A strange feeling surged in Zhu Yan's heart. He had never danced with a woman before, no, he hadn't even danced before, but it felt natural to be held by the hand.

Under the guidance of this woman, his dance moves have improved so much that he is able to keep up with the rhythm of others.

Early the next morning, Zhu Yang opened his eyes and looked at the roof with a confused expression.
