Chapter 54: Practice
Now the entire palace is busy with the banquet practiced for the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, and the Purple Wind Pavilion has been rearranged, which looks gorgeous and abnormal, which shows that Da Chen attaches great importance to the Tang Dynasty.
And when the ministers and the cadres were preparing for tonight's practice banquet, Chen Xuanyuan, the emperor of Da Chen, did not say anything about it, as if he didn't know about it at all, and the Yang Xin Pavilion seemed very calm.
In the Heart Cultivation Pavilion, the heat of midsummer completely penetrated into the hall, making the heart of the heart can't help but be a little restless. Chen Xuanyuan sat behind the desk, lowered his head and looked intently at the book in his hand, his expression was calm, completely unaffected by the outside world, the two palace maids held a pu fan in their hands, fanning it gently, and the fan wind blew Chen Xuanyuan's long black hair through the air.
The old eunuch Wang De waited honestly on the side, there were slight sweat stains floating out of the corners of his forehead, and his heart was obviously a little restless, this midsummer was the most upset, Wang De's eyes skimmed slightly and looked at Chen Xuanyuan seriously, and then slightly narrowed his eyes, forcibly suppressed the dryness in his heart, and kept silently reciting in his heart, "The heart is calm and naturally cool, the heart is naturally cool..."
Afternoon is the hottest time of the day, Chen Xuanyuan had lunch, then sat behind the desk again, picked up the fold and looked like he couldn't finish it.
And the bitter thing is the old eunuch Wang De and the palace maids, the palace maids are okay, they are holding a pu fan and slightly inciting, and Wang De, who is old, has been standing still on such a hot day, at this time in previous years, Chen Xuanyuan would let him go down to rest, and some of his behaviors this year made Chen Xuanyuan quite disappointed, so this should be a disguised punishment for him.
After all, the day is not long, the sun is gradually slanting to the west, announcing that the day is about to pass, and the heat in the air is also somewhat reduced, so that the old eunuch Wang De feels a lot more comfortable, and his bent waist is also a lot straighter.
And Chen Xuanyuan still looked at the fold in his hand seriously, nothing could disturb him, under the dusk, the reddish glow entered the hall, and sprinkled a little on Chen Xuanyuan's serious side face, making his whole person exude a kind of sacredness and majesty.
Mingxin Pavilion, Tang Yu stood tall, and the maidservants who accompanied him were tidying up their clothes, his black hair was tied up high, looking very refreshing, and a cyan palace dress set off his slender figure, and a pair of eyes were as bright as stars, shining.
Chang Lin stood by the side, his eyes staring at Tang Yu who was standing tall, and there was a light of hope flickering in his eyes, revealing a kind of divine worship. They were preparing to leave for the Purple Wind Pavilion to participate in tonight's practice banquet, although they all knew that this dinner was just a passing scene, and both sides had already got what they wanted, but there was still to be pomp and circumstance.
Waiting for the maid to tie Tang Yu's dark cyan belt, everything was ready.
"Go" Tang Yu squinted slightly, as if he was not used to having a sunset shine in, and then the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, revealing an unknown smile, and the whole person had a kind of evil charm quietly born, and then took the lead in stepping out of the Mingxin Palace, walking straight away, with a kind of pressing momentum.
The night opened quietly, and the silence was a little unusual, the Purple Wind Pavilion was shrouded in a thick night, and the palace pavilion in the candlelight reflected a bit of mist, like falling into a fairyland.
Tang Yu and his party slowly came to the Purple Wind Pavilion with a mist bath, and the hair of several people was stained with a few traces of mist, showing a hazy form.
"I'm tired of General Li waiting again," Tang Yu's gentle voice reached the ears of Li Hu, who was guarding outside the pavilion, through the dim air.
"If the King of Jin is there, the Tang envoy is my great Chen Guike, how can I be lazy, but tonight the fog is quite heavy, but it is a little abrupt King Jin" Li Hu hurriedly greeted him and said to Tang Yu.
"Everything is ready, King Jin, please come into the palace to rest" and then stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please.
"Okay," Tang Yu said gently, and then led people into the pavilion with light steps.
Li Hu looked back at the heavy mist, a little melancholy floated on the old man's face, and then quickly covered it up, turned around and hurriedly followed the Tang envoy into the pavilion, at this time Chen Xuanyuan had not yet come to the Purple Wind Pavilion.
Half a quarter of an hour ago, Chen Xuanyuan was still sitting quietly behind the desk, looking at the fold with a calm face, not knowing what to think. Wang De was still standing aside, but his eyebrows and eyes were a little anxious, it turned out that it was almost time for the dinner, but Chen Xuanyuan had no intention of going at all.
The sound of flipping through the folds hit Wang De's old heart, Wang De couldn't help it after all, and hurriedly ran to Chen Xuanyuan from one side, and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, it's almost time for dinner"
"Huh?" Chen Xuanyuan raised his head, looked at Wang De who was respectful with some doubts, and then looked up at the night that had completely darkened.
"Okay, let's go" Chen Xuanyuan neatly put down the fold in his hand, and then got up and walked out of the hall.
The stone in Wang De's heart was put down, and he hurriedly chased Chen Xuan away, and his old body seemed to be instantly energetic.
"The emperor has arrived..." The old eunuch Wang De's sharp voice sounded in the Purple Wind Pavilion, and a group of Great Chen courtiers hurriedly got up and bowed.
"Ministers, see Your Majesty," Tang Yu and his entourage also got up and bowed.
"Flat" Chen Xuanyuan's face remained unchanged, and then his face was calm, and he walked towards the top with a mist on his body.
Because it was an ordinary dinner, Chen Xuanyuan was wearing a regular suit and sat on top of it casually.
"This dinner is for the Tang envoys who come from afar, I hope that all the ministers will send off the envoys with enthusiasm, don't get drunk tonight, let's start" Chen Xuanyuan said this paragraph calmly, then reached out and picked up the wine glass on the table, and turned to face the place where the Tang envoy in the hall was sitting.
"King Jin, have a good trip," Chen Xuanyuan said calmly.
"Please" Tang Yu got up, as long as jade.
Then the two looked up, looked at each other, and then drank it all, and everything was silent.
Then, after the silence, the hall fell into a lively uproar.
The fog outside the sky became more and more intense, and the crescent moon in the sky was a little unclear, and in the dark night, only the candles of the Purple Wind Pavilion were bright, becoming the only wind and moon in this dark night.
