Chapter 57: Borrowing soldiers from Nepal to enter Tibet and renew friendship (II)
At this time, Songtsen Gampo and Princess Wencheng were in the Potala Palace, enjoying this dance that integrated the traditional dance skills of the Tang Dynasty and was full of Tibetan elements. This dance is also Princess Wencheng, who spent a lot of effort, after feeling the wildness of the Tubo dance and the delicate and soft beauty of the Tang dance. Immediately, the majestic posture of the Tibetan man and the feminine beauty of the Han woman were fused with each other.
The two extremes and two advantages have created a different shock, so appreciating this passionate place also made Songtsen Gampo applaud again and again.
As soon as the newly choreographed dance stopped for a while, I saw an attendant hurriedly coming with square steps, bowing back and saying: "Qi Qi Zanbu, Wang Xuance, the envoy of the Tang Kingdom, is waiting outside the palace gate, asking for an audience." ”
Pinching his fingers, this parting is many years. I only heard Songtsen Gampo say to Princess Wencheng in surprise: "A few months ago, Chang'an handed over the news, saying that Xuan Ce led the Tang Dynasty delegation to envoy five Indian countries along the Western Regions, but I didn't expect to arrive in our Tubo country so quickly and complete the due mission." ”
Princess Wencheng was also very happy to return: "This is just right, just to appreciate it, our newly choreographed dance!" And Xiao Cui, the personal maid next to the princess, was also very happy to hear that Wang Xuance was coming, because she also had her own little abacus......
"Yes, yes, the princess said very much. Let's go, let's go out of the palace together to meet this envoy and old friend." Between the words, Songtsen Gampo gently pulled Princess Wencheng's slender right hand; While passing the order, the middle door was opened, the five-color honor guard was held, the palace music and dance were arranged, and the most solemn etiquette was used to welcome the Tang Dynasty envoy Wang Xuance.
Suddenly, the middle door of the Potala Palace was opened, and the faces of Wang Xuance and the others changed instantly, he never thought that Zambu would use such a generous courtesy. It was precisely because of such a scene that they felt ashamed, so their faces changed greatly!
Under the support of two classes of civil and military personnel, as well as a cadre of guards, accompanied by horns and ceremonial music, Songtsen Gampo and Princess Wencheng slowly came out; paced down the steps, and walked straight to the four of Wang Xuance. Seeing that the two of them were so polite, Wang Xuance was like seeing a relative, and he also had mixed feelings and was quite tormented!
On the one hand, with the gift of envoys, he stretched out his hands and bowed to the two; After Princess Wencheng and Songtsen Gampo returned the salute; and with the gift of the Tang Dynasty, he bowed down and bowed down to worship Princess Wencheng and Songtsan Gampo; Hurriedly was helped up by the two of them again.
But listening to this Princess Wencheng, she said with relief: "Since you are already an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, you only need to treat each other as an envoy, you don't have to be so polite!" ”
"Where is the princess, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo have a very close relationship; Just like a family, such etiquette should also be. It's a pity that today you greeted Xuan Ce with such a big gift; However, Xuan Ce has failed the trust of His Majesty and disgraced our Datang Mission. Such a gift is really ashamed and cannot be accepted. Between the words, Wang Xuance hooked his head and looked at the two of them very ashamedly.
At this time, Songtsan Gampo, Wen Cheng, Xiao Cui'er and others found out that Wang Xuance and the four of them were not wearing the official uniforms of the Tang Dynasty, but only dressed in plain clothes.
Seeing that Wang Xuance was so ashamed, Princess Wencheng turned to Chen Maocai and asked, "What happened, come to me quickly!" ”
Therefore, Chen Maocai will explain all the things encountered in the five Indias to everyone under this step.
Songtsen Gampo, after hearing about what happened to them, immediately burst out with anger that he had never felt from a man's point of view: "Damn, it's against the sky, since they don't follow the rules, what do we still abide by to break the rules?" Lao Tzu will teach them a lesson, let them know what the rules are! ”
And when Princess Wencheng heard Chen Maocai's story, her face also changed suddenly, she never thought that they would encounter such a crisis, so she also gritted her teeth with hatred for Alonashun to snatch the Tang Mission!
However, Princess Wencheng also saw Wang Xuance's sadness, so after calming down her emotions a little, she said to him: "The fault of these things is not you, it is all caused by the treachery of this Holisha country; And at the critical moment, you can take care of our Datang national body, and you are also doing your best; In this case, let's enter the palace and talk in detail, so don't stand stupidly outside! ”
At this time, Songtsen Gampo also calmed down a little and said: "I just talked about it, I forgot about this stubble, yes, yes, enter the palace quickly, let's talk about it."
While speaking, Songtsen Gampo signaled to the attendants, and under the guidance of the attendants, the musicians on both sides continued to play music and dance.
When Songtsen Gampo, who personally held the hand of Wang Xuance, was ready to step up the imperial steps of the Potala Palace together. But seeing that Wang Xuance was still ashamed, he sincerely excused Songtsan Gampo and said: "Xuance is now considered a guilty body, and he really doesn't dare to take such a big gift; If you decide to invite Xuan Ce into the palace, you can only ask Zambu and the princess to remove this ritual music and dance, and the ceremonial canopy, so that I can feel at ease! ”
Looking at Wang Xuance, who was so stubborn and determined, although Songtsen Gampo wanted to implore him not to worry about this matter; But Princess Wencheng, who knew Wang Xuance well, signaled Zanbu to retreat these canopy honor guards.
"Okay, since that's the case, then I, Songtsan Gampo, will wait for you to be in a foreign land, and when you are ashamed of our Datang Dynasty, I will welcome your return with this grand ceremony" Songtsen Gampo said to Wang Xuance forcefully.
"Okay, the purpose of Xuan Ce's trip is precisely for this, if he can make the trip, he will definitely live up to the trust of Zambu and the princess" Wang Xuan Ce also said to them with a package ticket.
"This is the hero of the Tang Dynasty" Between the words, Songtsen Gampo smashed his fist on Wang Xuance's broad chest, with a rather majestic posture and endless expectant eyes. As the canopy of the honor guard receded, he took Wang Xuance's right hand again and walked up the stairs.
Princess Wencheng and Chen Maocai and others also looked at each other and smiled, following closely behind. However, this little Cui'er deliberately slowed down, walked to Zhou Zeng's side, glanced at him a few times, and followed him with a smile into the Potala Palace......
Nothing can be done overnight; No matter what you encounter, you must do it, because only by doing it can you straighten out your thoughts, understand things clearly, and get them thorough.
Although the plan cannot keep up with the changes, it is impossible to do without a plan. The plan is the general direction in which we are going, and on the way to move in this direction, we should focus on the present, think long-term, and constantly revise the plan, so that we can have a target and prescribe the right medicine......
History will develop in that direction, Wang Xuance, will they be able to borrow soldiers this time? Will Songtsen Gampo agree?
The editor said: The current dances in Tibet have integrated too many Tang elements, and the origin is Princess Wencheng~
