"So ......" Mao looked at Zhao Xing with blank eyes, and stopped talking. Zhao Xingyi waved his hand: "By the way, help me write the report, and it's up to you how to write it - however, none of the prisoners can be taken away!" ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Mao's smiling eyes narrowed into a slit.

Hangzhou officials all knew that Zhao Xing didn't care much about merit and official reputation. Last year, he went overseas, and a steady stream of grain and grass for Su Shi was brought in exchange for work, and at the end of the year, Su Shi wanted to mention his merits, but Zhao Xing stopped him. Such a person who is unwilling to take credit and would rather hide behind the scenes as a colleague is the happiness of Hangzhou officials. That's what Mao Peng just asked, and in the end he got what he wanted.

When the attack was born, Mao Peng was at the scene, and Zhao Xing asked him to write a report, so naturally his credit is indispensable.

Such good things fell on his head out of thin air, and he didn't want to watch the performances that Mao Peng had even connected, so he hurried out of the house and ran towards the docks. When he was about to go out, there happened to be a team of orchids, a team of widows walked in the direction of the castle, Mao Peng and them staggered, he paused at his feet, he had heard the gentleness of the widows, Mao Peng wanted to take a look, but his curiosity could not stop the psychology of promotion to wealth, he paused, and continued to run towards the dock area, chanting as he walked: "Hurry, I have to end the interrogation quickly to catch up with the orchid performance." ”

When Mao Peng walked out, Yang Zuren's feet moved, but he immediately came to his senses, stood still, and said with a sneer: "Originally, after being swept by Pugong Sect Meng Jinian, there should be no trace of thieves in Hangzhou, but I didn't expect it to be only a few years. The lake and the mountains are relieved again...... Brother Liren, since it is determined that he is a mountain bandit from Hushan, it is better to take advantage of the leakage of the news and take him off guard. ”

Yang Zuren said that Pu Zongmeng had served as the prefect of Haozhou, Hangzhou, and Yunzhou. His term of office in Hangzhou happened to be before the unveiling of the pivot. When Pu Zongmeng was in Hangzhou, he severely cracked down on bandits, and even sent troops across the border to Hushan, and finally managed the bandits near Hangzhou. But Pu Zongmeng's measures were so cruel that even some petty thieves had to cut their tendons as long as they were caught. Sometimes there are times when you don't fully understand the situation and wronged good people. Therefore, the history books criticized him for "being cruel to politics".

The fashion of Song Dynasty scholars wearing goldfish on official uniforms began with Pu Zongmeng. When Pu Zongmeng was a scholar of Hanlin for Emperor Shenzong, Shenzong once said to Pu Zongmeng: "The position of a bachelor of Hanlin is very high. And very close to the monarch, not comparable to other officials. So he rewarded Pu Zongmeng with a goldfish on his official uniform. Since then, the Great Song Dynasty scholars have carried goldfish bags.

This Pu Zongmeng died last year in his office in Yunzhou.

Zhao Xing knew that Pu Zongmeng was a person, and Yang Zuren's proposal was very good, at least stronger than his father's military ability, but Zhao Xing did not intend to implement it. He shook his head and replied, "Those bandits are familiar with the situation in the mountains, in every mountain col. Cold arrows are shot from under every tree. With my limited strength in Hangzhou, I went to fight guerrilla warfare in the mountains with hundreds of bandits who were familiar with geography...... Ha ha! ”

Yang Zuren's face flushed, and he quietly pointed at Su Shi.

He was reminding Zhao Xing that Su Shi was now the number one leader of the party, government and army, and he had the power to mobilize the army, and he only needed to make up for it afterwards if he mobilized less than 100 soldiers.

Yang Zuren: This is a strong argument. He was aware of his mistake. Talking to Su Shi just has nothing to say. Because a hundred civilian soldiers went to search the mountain, the strength was obviously insufficient. And to go to the Privy Council for instructions, it would not be a matter of raids.

At this time, the group of orchids and widows that Mao Peng had seen were entering the castle, and Chen Yiyi invited everyone to enter the castle's heavenly hall. Above the head of this ballroom, the walls are lined with glass mirrors. In the room next to the Hall of Mirrors, Mei Sanniang and Qian Wan'er were rolling up their sleeves and sorting out all kinds of dishes, and several Japanese maids and Vietnamese maids were also in the room, cleaning up all kinds of fruit platters.

The Ethereal Room is large enough for more than a hundred people to sit, and there is a door on each side of the Ethereal Hall leading to the side room, where servants come in and out on one side to bring fruits and food to everyone, and in the wing room on the other side is the lounge, with countless couches for everyone to rest.

After Zhao Xing entered the lounge, he saw that Yang Zuren had not yet said goodbye to him. Zhao Xing knew that the other party was trying to save face, and expected him to give an evaluation of the latter suggestion, so he quickly replied: "Actually, I still have a clever plan, that is, a hundred people are enough, enough to teach them a lesson." ”

Yang Zuren asked curiously: "What's the plan?" ”

"Burning Mountain!" Zhao Xing gritted his teeth and said, "If you dare to provoke me Zhao Laohu, I will definitely make him regret it." It was not enough for more than a hundred people to attack the mountain, but it was enough to set fire everywhere. Now it's dry, let the fire go and see how the robbers hide. ”

"No!" Zhou Bangshi listened to it and stopped it in a loud voice: "The tomb of Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, is on the mountain, how can he set fire to the mountain?" Leave people, you have to do this, infamy is indispensable through the ages. ”

"Oh!" Li Yu likes Zhao Xing very much, but wasn't Li Yu captured by Zhao Kuangyin, how could he be buried in Hushan?

"Li Yu's tomb is on the mountain, are you sure?" Zhao Xing asked tightly.

Yang Zuren immediately replied: "Qian Gongmufu should know about this, after the death of Empress Li, he was buried in Luoyang Mountain, and in the next four years, he returned to Fuyang, and it is rumored that he was buried in Hushan. Therefore, there are two epitaphs, the former one was written by Xu Xian, an old minister of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the latter was written by Qian. The Qian family and the Li family are in-laws, and since their owner erected a monument for Li Yu, he must know where he is buried. ”

Zhao Xing let out a regretful sigh: "Poor generation of emperors, a group of thieves live by the grave, more than a hundred years have passed, what will be left in his grave?" Who wants to be responsible for the theft of the tomb of the queen, and which magistrate would dare to take such a case, so, I guess ......"

"That can't be burned! No matter what, the mountain is there, burning the mountain is notoriety, I think Pu Zongmeng didn't dare to burn the mountain back then, don't go your own way when you leave people. Zhou Bangshi tried his best to persuade him, hoping that Zhao Xing would dispel this idea.

Zhao Xing touched his chin, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Don't burn." I didn't plan to burn the mountain, but I just wanted to scare them, but if I dare to attack my manor, I must teach them a lesson...... Today is not it, tomorrow will be it. Preparing to attack is not something that can be done just by saying it. ”

At this time, seeing that Zhao Xing didn't have any programs here, the officials of Hangzhou Mansion had already begun to say goodbye in twos and threes, and Tang Di, Yang Chong, and Cao Duanyong also came over with people. was about to say goodbye to the master, and at this moment, Chen Yiyi arrogantly led a team of orchids into the Hall of Mirrors, as if he planned to continue singing and dancing. Yang Chong and the others stopped. Greeting each other.

After a few years, it was not easy to become the protagonist of the banquet, Chen Yiyi only thought that the joy was endless, and that this feast could go on endlessly, and after asking the group of orchids just now what skills they had, she immediately felt that the joy should continue. Let the singing and dancing always accompany.

After a short break, the orchids regained their spirits and entered the room with the lute in their arms, the common ancestor of the Chinese "pipa", the Japanese "bia", and the Spanish "guitar". or sit on the floor. Or find a chair to sit on, and in addition, there are some orchids with waist drums, bell rings, and shakers.

The music resumed, and Kasri walked in a fat pleated skirt with two orchids ringing in the ringing bells. She moved lightly. Charming and enchanting, she looks sexy and shy in her steps. Her bright silk dress dyed in crimson red fluttered. The red floor satin dressed her like a blooming red rose. Behind her, the two Arab orchids wore white satin dresses, and the satin horns were embroidered with a few faint flowers, which elegantly set off the flaming kasli.

The skirt had a high waist and a tight waist that almost extended to the chest, flattering her tall and seductive. Her hair is braided into small braids and scattered behind her, and her cherry lips are delicate, plump and pretty; The cheeks are soft, and the jade neck is slightly curved; The shoulders like the bright moon are slender and round, and the jade arms like snow lotus are white and delicate; Accompanied by the silver bells in her hands, the small bells on her arms, and the fish-scale veil woven from metal sheets on her head, Kasli walked like a beautiful music, turning her footsteps into a dance music, and her willow waist swayed like a light dancing elf! The tinkling sound continued throughout the room.

Zhao Xing's eyes lit up, Kasli was now wearing almost no different from a modern long-sleeved skirt, looking at the fat skirt, he vaguely guessed what show Kasli wanted to perform, only to see Kasli stretch out her white and slender ten fingers, soft and boneless, and in an instant, the towering holy jade peak on her chest rose and fell with the slight movements of her body. It's dizzying.

When the waves subsided, Kasli carved her ivory-like jade legs stretched out from the group, soft and delicate, fair and slender, the crystal clear thighs, white and flawless calves, bare white and delicate lotus feet, a pair of silver-soled boots under her feet, showing the soles of the whole silver plate cast, the soles were as bright as a mirror, and her long skirt only reached the top of her feet, and between walking, the soles flashed and flashed, like naughty elves blinking.

The two newly-arrived female slaves knelt down in front of Zhao Xing and made the "five-body throw" salute, their hands stretched out, fully showing their figures, and their foreheads were tightly pressed against the ground. Immediately after, Kasli also bent down to Zhao Xing, she writhed like a snake, and the bells all over her body rang rhythmically, like a lark jumping on a branch.

Kasri's waist fell lower and lower, and in a moment, as if she could fold, her waist was completely folded, her forehead was close to the ground, and only two hands were left dancing in the air, beating like snakes, with an unimaginable incredibity, undulating and writhing.

Zhao Xing nodded, bowed and bowed, Kasli's forehead left the ground inch by inch, her hands continued to dance delicately, her shoulders shrugged, her neck trembled, but her head did not move, at the same time, her waist twisted more unbelievably and dazzlingly.

Yang Chong was an expert next to him, and he explained in a low voice: "This is the big snake eating dance, I saw their house trick performance in Quanzhou Hu Shang, I heard that this dance is extremely seductive, and people who have seen it are reluctant to explain it to the outside world, so the people have whispered it in private, and there are all kinds of things." For example, Mingzhou calls it the Heavenly Demon Dance of the Maiden, and I heard that there is also this kind of dance performance in the Jingshi Huren Pavilion, which is called the Great Joy of a Thousand Hands.

In recent years, there have been occasional viewers who have passed it on to the outside world, and they have recorded: dancing body with tassels, long and short red silk skirts, gold miscellaneous jackets, cloud shoulders, closed-sleeved heavenly clothes, and ribbon shoes. One of them plays the bell and pestle...... This thing, temptation. ”

Yang Chong didn't know that in modern times, this dance is also called "belly dance".

Kasli raised her head inch by inch, her body straightened, but her waist posture was still twisting, her feet did not move at all, her head remained in place, her waist twisted like a lily in the wind, and her gestures and shoulder movements were even more breathtaking...... How can a person's hands make so many movements, those arms seem to have no bones, and they can be bent and folded anywhere.

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound, and Kasri stomped her foot, and then, the music sounded, and the two orchids behind her also began to raise their heads, their foreheads off the ground, and slowly straightened up.

Immediately afterward, Kasli made a series of stomping sounds, and everyone saw a flower, Kasri's trembling skirt spun, and the two orchids also spun after her, dancing as they turned, and there was a rapid silver bell in the middle of the field, and a loud, rapid, crisp stomping of feet.

This has been transformed into "flamenco", also known as "Spanish pendula", from which tap dance has evolved......

Kasli wore a pair of silver-soled shoes, and the sound of her stomping was crisp like firecrackers, and it was like clapping...... Dancing to the Han place, Kasli clapped her hands while shouting the rhythm crisply, the music full of "3" and "4" notes, people couldn't sit still, just wanted to sway with the music.

The crowd couldn't sit still, and now the scene was like a discotheque, with the audience swaying rhythmically, clapping and stomping their feet to the applause and footsteps of the dance. In the end, their mouths were like Kasri, whirring and screaming, as if they were crazy......

That's how powerful flamenco is.

The word "flamenco" is derived from the Arabic word for "fugitive peasant". Its origins are disputed, but the more accepted theory is that the Gypsies came from North India and made several treks to southern Spain in the 9th century, bringing with them a mixed music. The dance was a mix of Indian, Arab, Jewish, and even Byzantine elements, and was later infused with the Moors of southern Spain, while the gypsies who lived in Andalusia, Spain, made it famous and famous.

The word "flamenco" is also used in modern times to describe an attitude towards life. Earlier Chinese dictionaries defined it as a group of people who pursued pleasure, were unproductive, debauched, and often lived on the fringes of the law. But then, in international parlance, "flamenco" represented a generosity, fanaticism, extravagance, and uninhibited way of life. This seems to be the elegant life pursued by the bold poets represented by Su Shi: generous, fanatical, bold and unrestrained.

After dancing to the song, Kasli lay on the ground again, waiting for Zhao Xing to make a statement. Chen Yiyi only felt that the atmosphere was warm, and when she saw Zhao Xing walking towards Kasli and reaching out to Kasri's veil, she suddenly remembered the "orchid dedication" that Zhao Xing had told her, and immediately let out a scream, trying to prevent Zhao Xing from unveiling the orchid.
