Chapter 87: Dance (Part 1)

Princess Anastasia of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire nodded, made a Roman etiquette to Gao Yang Yajun, and then slowly walked back to her place, raised the wine glass on the table and toasted Gao Yang Yajun, and then finished the wine in the cup in one gulp.

Gao Yang Yajun sat on the jade throne and also raised his wine glass to return a glass of wine to Princess Antasia.

Gao Yang Yajun and Princess Anastasia looked at each other, and something could be seen in their eyes, both of them had appreciation for each other in their eyes, they looked at each other, and finally smiled slightly.

The congratulatory and gifting session was completely over at this time, and then everyone continued to watch the special music and beautiful and gorgeous dances of the Chinese Empire.

It has to be said that the music and dance of the Chinese Empire are extremely novel in the eyes of foreign envoys, and the dances of the elites of the Chinese Empire can be said to be light and graceful, and the dance posture is soft.

Especially in the view of Princess Anantasia of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, who also has a cultural heritage, the dancers of the Chinese Empire danced lightly, their bodies were as light as swallows, their bodies were as soft as clouds, and their arms were soft as if they had no bones, like butterflies flying among flowers, as if they were gurgling water.

The musicians of the Chinese Empire used the chime, xiao, zheng, flute, gonghou, xiao, sheng, and other musical instruments that Li Xueru, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, spent time and effort restoring, and the music played was even more pleasant.

When the music played by the musicians was accompanied by the dancing of the musicians, everyone present felt as if they had heard the fairy music in the heavenly court (heaven), and when they saw the beautiful women in the heavenly court (heaven) dancing, it was like seeing the fairies (angels) in the heavenly court (heaven).

Everyone here is not drunk, everyone is drunk, they look at this majestic dance and music as if they have drunk a good wine, and they are so drunk that they can't help themselves.

Even Gao Yang Yajun was fascinated by it, and Gao Yang Yajun didn't watch the rehearsal, and she didn't have time to watch it, so when she really heard and saw this delicate and beautiful dance and music today, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart:

"Sure enough, it's like visiting the Heavenly Palace in person, if it were in my previous life, I'm afraid I wouldn't have seen this beautiful fantasy performance in my life."

Gao Yang Yajun saw that she was so excited that she actually planned to go down and perform by herself, she said her thoughts to Mei Xianying, Mei Xianying knew that dissuasion was ineffective, so she shook her head and followed Gao Yang Yajun to do it.

And the ministers below and the envoys of various countries were addicted to this beautiful performance, so they didn't realize for a while that Gao Yang Yajun had changed into a purple-gold neon dress like an immortal.

Gao Yang Yajun motioned to Mei Xianying, and Mei Xianying immediately called the female official softly, and sent the female official to inform Li Xueru, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, that she would cooperate with Gao Yang Yajun for a while.

When Li Xueru, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, learned that Gao Yang Yajun actually wanted to perform, he was also helpless, but he did not object, because it was not uncommon for monarchs to perform in the Tang Dynasty, but it was just a rarity in the Chinese Empire.

However, since Gao Yang Yajun has already decided, Li Xueru has no choice but to quickly arrange for the musician and You Ling to cooperate with Gao Yang Yajun's performance at that time.

When the musician and You Ling learned that they were going to perform with His Majesty the Emperor in a while, their faces were full of excitement and honor.

The performance continued, and the ministers and envoys who were obsessed with it didn't know that Gao Yang Yajun was ready!

The next performance began, the musicians played the music like fairy music, the excellent singers began to dance, the excellent singers slowly gathered together, when they dispersed around again, everyone present saw a woman wearing a purple and gold neon dress, fairy appearance, ice muscles and jade bones, captivating the country and the city, holding a sword, like a fairy woman slowly danced.

Her dancing is smart, elegant, elegant and smart, she is like a fairy, standing proudly in the world, like a fairy descending to earth, which makes people dare not look at her.

She is dressed in purple clothes and fluttering in the wind, her long hair is pouring down, her purple shirt is like a flower, her long sword is better than snow, she is indescribably beautiful and elegant, noble and vulgar.

Everyone present was amazed, the officials of the Huaxia Empire were okay, they had at least heard of the so-called sword dance.

And the envoys from other countries can be said to have never heard of the sword dance or the like, if the last dance reminded them of watching the immortals dance in the heavenly palace, then this dance made them feel that they were in the heavenly palace, and they all felt that this dance was only because of the heavens.

Not to mention others, even Li Xueru, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who was mentally prepared in advance, sighed that His Majesty was like an immortal, not to mention others.

Looking at Gao Yang Yajun's dance, this made Li Xueru suddenly think of the poem written by Du Fu "Guangongsun Auntie's Disciples Dance Sword Weapon Walk", and Li Xueru personally thinks that Gao Yang Yajun's "sword weapon" (martial dance, sword dance) today can be said to be comparable to Gongsun Auntie.

Li Xueru observed everyone's intoxicated performance left and right, and couldn't help but revise the poem "Guangongsun Auntie's Disciples Dancing with Swords", and read softly:

"Today, there is a beautiful woman Gao Yang, a sword dance moves in all directions.

The spectators are depressed like mountains, and the heavens and the earth are low for a long time.

Huo Ruyi shot nine sunsets, like a group of emperors and dragons.

Come like thunder to restrain anger, and let it be like the river and sea condensing the light. ”

Li Xueru only changed the first four sentences, because he thought that the latter sentences were no longer related to Gao Yang Yajun's sword dance.

"Master Li is a good poem!! I have long felt that the person performing this is like Your Majesty, and after listening to your poem, I know that this is Your Majesty! Master Li, you are hiding it from me! After listening to Li Xueru's adapted poem, Prime Minister Mei Andao opened his mouth to blame.

"The prime minister smiled, this is also a temporary decision of His Majesty, and there is no way to do it!" Li Xueru smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Haha, I see, it's really Your Majesty's character! But Lord Li, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate for you to use the word "beauty" to describe Your Majesty in this poem! ”

After listening to Mei Andao's persuasive words, Li Xueru opened his mouth to explain: "Prime Minister, you also know that the word "beauty" can refer to beautiful women and talented women, so it is okay to use "beauty" here, and this poem is not written by Xia Guan, but Xia Guan selected the first couplet and the jaw couplet from the poem "Guan Gongsun Da Niang's Disciple Dancing Sword Weapon Xing" in the Tang Dynasty poem Du Fu Du Zimei. ”

"I see, Master Li still likes sincerity as always!" Mei Andao nodded and praised Li Xuerudao.

"The prime minister has won the award, let's continue to watch!" Li Xueru said modestly.

Then Li Xueru and Mei Andao stopped chatting and watched Gao Yang Yajun's sword dance seriously.

And the other ministers of the Huaxia Empire also noticed that this sword-wielding man was their Emperor Majesty! When they noticed it, they looked more seriously.

And the envoys of other countries only found out that the person who danced the sword was His Majesty the Great Emperor of the Chinese Empire after Gao Yang Yajun finished dancing.

The Bulgarian princess and the princess of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire couldn't help but admire Gao Yang Yajun's heroic posture and figure like an immortal.

Gao Yang Yajun danced, hugged his fists, and then walked straight back to his dragon chair and sat down to rest.

The banquet in the enthronement hall of Gaoyang Yajun did not end until about seven o'clock in the afternoon, and after Gaoyang Yajun's performance, the musician and Youling continued to play music and perform three dances.

In the end, Gao Yang Yajun toasted again, and after everyone saluted back, as Mei Xianying and the female officials sang:

"Retreat"

The feast of the enthronement ceremony was completely over.
