Volume 2 Xin Guo Chapter 52 Jealousy and Dance
Before the sun set, Fu Guo's delegation arrived at the station on the border of Xin State, and Gu Beiyu and Gu Yannian waited for a long time with first-class soldiers.
A man dressed as an entourage walked forward: "This is General Gu, this is the envoy of our country, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Fu Guo." The attendant pointed to a man in brocade.
"General Gu, Elder Gu, I have admired the name for a long time!" Fu An in brocade clothes smiled slightly and bowed his head. The handsomeness of this life, indifferent between the eyebrows, but there is a hint of grandeur.
Gu Beiyu nodded in acknowledgment.
"It's a disappointment in the future," Gu Yannian greeted, waved his hand lightly, and Zheng Yuan, the little guy next to him, immediately held a brocade plate and put the best jade Ruyi, "This is a little bit of Your Majesty's heart, please smile." ”
"Oh? This jade Ruyi is lustrous and clear, Your Majesty has a heart, and when I go back, I will tell my father truthfully. Ling Er, came out to see Elder Gu and General Gu. Fu Andao.
A little girl in yellow walked out from the back of the team, and gave a big salute to Gu Beiyu with smiling eyes: "I've seen General Gu!" ”
Gu Beiyu was slightly stunned: "This is?" ”
"Ling'er, you haven't seen Elder Gu yet!" Fu An was harsh.
The woman named Ling'er pouted, and walked up to Gu Yannian in a daze: "See Elder Gu!" ”
"This is Sister Ling, right?" Gu Yannian stroked his beard and asked with a smile.
"It's the housesister Fu Ling, speaking of which, I also met General Gu when I was a child, and my sister has heard the name of General Gu's god of war in recent years, so this time she came to me because I was too pampered on weekdays, so she lost her manners in front of the two." Fu An explained.
Fu Ling pouted and looked at Gu Beiyu: "General Gu won't blame me for being rude, right?" ”
"Where, please." Gu Beiyu lowered his eyes lightly, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.
Fu Ling smiled.
Bai Yanxiao was dressed in red, covered his face with a scarf, and followed Gu Beiyu not far away, seeing everything in front of him clearly.
Gu Yannian led everyone to the table, Gu Beiyu's footsteps quietly slowed down, until Bai Yanxiao behind him followed, and then said slowly: "Don't run around." ”
Bai Yanxiao nodded, hesitated and followed Gu Beiyu to sit together. But her eyes never left Fu Ling, and at that time Fu An said, did she hear the name of the God of War and came here?
The two countries introduced the guests and generals at each other's banquets, and each escorted the prepared gifts, and Gu Yannian took care of everything in an orderly manner. Gu Beiyu drank a glass of wine quietly.
A song and dance was staged, and the soldiers who had been on the battlefield for a long time cheered when they saw this, and the atmosphere was lively for a while.
Bai Yanxiao relaxed his vigilance, touched his slightly hungry stomach, took off the scarf, and revealed a stunning face, which set off the beauty of the red clothes incomparably, and immediately compared the beauties who performed on the stage. Gu Beiyu turned his head sideways, and a pair of gray-blue eyes with a slight smile under his thick black eyebrows, it seemed that after Bai Yan smiled, the scars on his face had faded a lot, and with the cover of fat powder, it was already faint and undetectable.
"Who is this?" Far away, Fu An looked at the stunning woman beside Gu Beiyu and asked curiously.
"Hey, this is our General Gu's ......" Zhang Hu slapped the table and said arrogantly.
"Zhang Hu, don't be rude!" Gu Yannian interrupted suddenly, his face sank, and he immediately explained to Fu An, "This girl is General Gu's sister, which makes His Highness smile." ”
Hearing this, Gu Beiyu and Bai Yanxiao glanced at each other, but no one said anything, this scene, no matter what they do, it is difficult to explain, if it is better to follow Gu Yannian's wishes.
"Oh? Never heard of a woman in Gu's house? Fu An was interested.
"It was adopted by Lao Yu later, and it can be regarded as half of the Gu Mansion's children." Gu Yannian said.
"Qiongzi is beautiful, she is a beauty" Fu An stared at Bai Yan deeply and smiled, and did not shy away from commenting.
Bai Yanxiao was shocked in his heart, this person seems to be upright but can speak so bluntly, not to be extremely simple-minded, but to be a person with a ravine. Facing his deep but calm gaze, Bai Yanxiao looked away a little embarrassed.
Hearing this, Gu Beiyu's eyes turned cold, and his face sank. Gu Yannian's scheming eyes shone with a ghostly glow, making Bai Yanxiao not doubt that he might give himself away in order to win over Fu Guo.
"Drink! Drink! Zhang Hu on the side saw the clue, stood up with the wine jar and looked at the generals sitting on the opposite side, and raised the altar to drink.
"Good!" The envoys were infected by Zhang Hu's enthusiasm, and the two sides toasted each other. For a while, the atmosphere was lively, covering up the embarrassment of Fang Cai.
The crowd was drunk and noisy.
"General Gu!" Fu Ling didn't know when he stood in front of Gu Beiyu, holding a wine glass, "Ling Er has always admired the general's prestige and wants to give the general a glass." ”
Gu Beiyu came back to his senses and hurriedly got up and picked up the wine cup in return: "Princess Ling is polite." ”
"The general will call me Ling'er like my brother!" Fu Ling raised his little head and looked at Gu Beiyu with blank eyes.
Hearing this, Bai Yanxiao's hand on the side shook, and the wine overflowed the wine cup.
Gu Beiyu was stunned, he didn't know how to answer, so he had to drink all the wine in the cup, silent as if acquiescing, Fu Ling asked with joy in his heart: "Then can I call the general, your brother Beiyu?" ”
Gu Beiyu remained silent, but his eyes were full of alienation.
Gu Yannian, who was on the side, hurriedly smiled and said: "Princess Ling has a comfortable temperament, she is not informal, and calling Ah Yu as a princess is a blessing for Ah Yu, how can there be any reason to refuse?" The old man responded for Ah Yu, if the princess wanted to ask for something in the future, it would be okay, just ask. The fox-like Gu Yannian stroked his beard.
Hearing this, Gu Beiyu looked at Gu Yannian coldly, but was suppressed by Gu Yannian's eyes.
An innocent smile appeared on Fu Ling's face: "Really? Then if I want Brother Beiyu to make it for me in the future......"
"Princess Ling!" Gu Beiyu interrupted as if she knew what she was going to say, and Fu Ling's words came to an abrupt end.
"Huh?" Fu Ling raised his little head and looked at Gu Beiyu, but Gu Beiyu didn't know what to say and had to say: "Tonight's singing and dancing is very beautiful, you shouldn't miss it." ”
Fu Ling blinked and didn't understand Gu Beiyu's eviction order.
"Yes, tonight's singing and dancing is very beautiful, but it is less than one-ten-thousandth of Princess Ling's, why don't Princess Ling dance herself, so that everyone can be amazed, how about it?" Bai Yanxiao put down the wine cup, smiled slowly, and quietly relieved Gu Beiyu, but there was a bit of provocation in his words.
"You woman, what are you doing with this princess, how can you talk about this dancing girl." Fu Ling's face was arrogant, looking down at Bai Yan and smiling.
"What is the princess herself? The princess and my general did not shy away from it. Bai Yanxiao played with the wine cup, with a vinegar smell on his face.
Hearing this, Gu Beiyu looked at Bai Yan in surprise, and a trace of undetectable joy flashed in his eyes.
On the other side, Fu An looked at Bai Yan with a wine cup and smiled, a trace of cunning flashed in his calm and straightforward eyes, and he turned the wine cup and said unhurriedly: "Why don't you dance on behalf of my sister Fu Guo, and the girl also dances on behalf of Xin Guo, how about a competition?" ”
Hearing this, the people of the Xin State Mission immediately clapped their hands and applauded: "Yes! Come on! ”
Gu Beiyu and Bai Yanxiao glanced at each other, frowned slightly, and were about to step forward to refuse, but they were stopped by Bai Yanxiao stretching out his hand, Bai Yanxiao stepped forward and looked at Fu An: "If Your Highness insists on using this dance as a contest between the two countries, then why not gamble on something?" ”
"Oh?" Fu An put down the wine cup and looked at Bai Yan with a smile in his eyes, "According to the girl's opinion, what should I bet on?" And how to judge the winner or loser? ”
Bai Yan smiled and groaned, and a trace of cunning slipped in his eyes: "Before the competition, the musicians of the two countries played for each other's dancers, and the repertoire played must be the dance music of their own country, which means that Princess Ling and I are not familiar with each other's dance music. The winner may put a condition on the loser. ”
"Any conditions?" Fu An raised his eyebrows.
"Any conditions." Bai Yan smiled and agreed.
"Ah Yan!" Gu Beiyu scolded in a low voice, but was stopped by Gu Yannian, Gu Yannian shook his head at Gu Beiyu, sat down with a faint expression and prepared to enjoy the dance.
Bai Yanxiao slowly turned around, looked at Gu Beiyu, and suddenly evoked an extremely charming smile. Gu Beiyu was slightly stunned.
The pianist of Xin Guo has done a good job, chose a piece of music that is only available in Xin Guo, and played it slowly, a pink dance skirt came out with the sound, twisting her waist lightly, a pair of eyes on her palm-sized little face were as smart and affectionate as peacocks, the sound of the piano was slow and fast, Fu Ling walked with the rhythm, the pink skirt rotated and danced, like an elf, everyone gradually quieted down, admiring the wonderful dance of the woman in front of them.
The soldiers of the Xin Kingdom couldn't help muttering: "This Princess Ling didn't take a wrong dance step, is the white girl going to lose?" ”
"I don't know, it's a good dance!"
Fu Ling's left foot moved slightly, the bell on his waist rang fixedly, the long yarn shook, and slid through a graceful arc in the air, ending the song.
"Good!" The crowd applauded. The eyes of the people of the Fu State Mission were full of meaning.
"Okay, let's play the music by Fu Guo's musician, and Xin Guo will dance." A general said loudly.
Dressed in brocade clothes slowly walked out, everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
Fu An smiled slowly: "There is no musician with me, so I can only accompany it myself, I hope the girl will not be disgusted." As he spoke, Fu An took out a jade flute from behind his waist. Obviously, the person who can carry the jade flute with him must be a master of blowing, and everyone can't help but sweat for Bai Yanxiao.
