"Qingque, stand down, talk nonsense, unorthodox." Empress Eldest Sun reprimanded, but she couldn't hide the doting meaning, and others were just fine, and she was naturally a little embarrassed when she heard her son's praise of virtue.

"What does my father think of his son's ode." Li Tai smiled and said, "It must be very appropriate." ”

"That's nature." Li Shimin laughed and said, the son praises his mother, the husband praises his wife, there is nothing to avoid, and the character of the eldest grandson queen is also recognized by the court as virtuous and impeccable.

Empress Eldest Sun naturally shook her head with a smile, the family of three was happy, but for a while, she ignored others, Han Rui was used to being natural, and she didn't feel anything, but she didn't know what other people thought.

Glancing at Li Chengqian, he found that he was not unusual, Han Rui felt relieved, at this time, a palace maid Yingying walked over, holding pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other things in her hand, resting on the small case, spreading out the fragrant golden flower paper, dripping water in the inkstone, and the tender white little hands lightly studied the glossy ink.

Below, everyone quietly discussed, after all, the poems that sing the praises of virtue are the most exquisite skills, whether they are beating around the bush or straightforward, whether they are flattering to the vulgar stream, or they are extraordinary, and they must be carefully chosen, and the most important thing is that the positions are different, and the angles of looking at the problem are naturally different.

The poem will be written, maybe the emperor likes it, but the officials and magnates may not appreciate it, this is the so-called difficult to reconcile, and can not patronize the emperor, but ignore the feelings of the powerful officials, after all, everyone applauds is a masterpiece, and vice versa, the emperor and queen do not like it, and it is useless for everyone to applaud, this is the most basic common sense.

However, all aspects are comprehensive, and the poems have fallen into the vulgar stream, which makes people sigh in vain, because of this experience, so Ouyang Xun has doubts, and suddenly saw Yu Shinan next to him with a normal face, and couldn't help whispering: "Brother Boshi, aren't you worried?" ”

"What is there to worry about." Yu Shinan didn't care and said: "Anyway, poetry and poetry are what he is best at, if he can't write a good work, we can't help write a better one." ”

"Yes." Ouyang Xun agreed and smiled: "If I am powerless, then he can only rely on himself." ”

In front of the case, the ink ingot was slowly grinded, turned a few times, the ink in the inkstone had dissolved, thick black as oil, and there was a faint aroma, as the ink color spread faintly, the palace maid stopped grinding the ink, took a delicate pen, soaked in the water bowl next to the desk for a while, and waited for the pen to be wet, then it was full of thick ink in the inkstone, licked and wiped twice, and presented it to Han Rui.

After taking the pen, Han Rui groaned, with the most serious posture, stroke by stroke, and wrote on the flower note, the font is square, the edges and corners are round, very restrained, naturally there is no feature, but it is very neat, people can read it comfortably, four lines and twenty-eight words, finished, when the ink is slightly dry, Han Rui handed the flower note to the palace maid and asked her to present it.

The palace maid Yingying, walked away, came to the high platform seat, but presented the flower paper to the emperor, Li Shimin watched, read it silently twice in his heart, quietly, unexpectedly, actually folded the flower paper, stuffed it into his arms in a grand manner, and said casually: "Yes, come to someone, increase the seat, and sit with it." ”

The ceremonial officer listens to the order, how to arrange it? After a hundred thoughts, he made a decision in an instant, immediately increased the number of seats at the end, and led Han Rui away briskly, naturally not forgetting to serve a good wine and food, most people were very satisfied with this arrangement, after all, Han Rui was just a white body, but the officials present were above the third grade, so naturally they could not live on it.

Naturally, this is a small episode, what everyone is most interested in now is the poem that Li Shimin hid in his arms, needless to say, it must be a wonderful masterpiece, the question is, what is the reason, not to be recited by the public, but hidden, is there any need to avoid words, but this does not make sense, if there are taboo words, how can Li Shimin look like nothing.

I couldn't figure it out, but it aroused everyone's curiosity even more, their eyes were burning, and there were many speculations, if it wasn't for the presence of the courtesy officials at the banquet, it would definitely be discussed, otherwise I would ask Han Rui directly to solve the confusion in my heart.

On the high platform, there are royal people, those young princes and princesses, who have not yet learned how to appreciate poetry and songs, naturally do not mention it, a few are at the age of knowledge, and their curiosity is extremely strong, but because of Li Shimin's majesty, they dare not speak, as long as Li Tai, there are not so many concerns, and he asked with a smile: "Father, how about the poem?" ”

The eldest grandson's queen had beautiful eyes, although she didn't speak, but she revealed doubts, and even the old Li Yuan, in addition to teasing Sun, also cast a curious gaze, under the gaze of everyone, Li Shimin hesitated, and finally couldn't resist, took out the flower note from his arms, and handed it over hesitantly.

Empress Changsun smiled lightly, held the note in her hand, unfolded it to look at it, her beautiful eyes were shining, and she looked at it for a moment, and she was actually like Li Shimin, folding the flower note and carefully putting it in her arms.

"Guanyin, rejoice in your heart." Li Shimin smiled and said in a low voice: "This kid, boasting about people, is simply a wild show, the ground is surging golden lotus, leaving no room for me, let me do it in the future." ”

The eldest grandson queen smiled brightly, scorching like a peach, and her demeanor was natural, making people dare not look directly.

The affectionate and mysterious whispering of the two made everyone's gossip soul burn, but they also knew that they were strategic, and under the recommendation of everyone, Princess Changle, who was the most favored by the emperor and queen, walked over lightly, and took the opportunity to offer wine, so she relied on the side of the eldest grandson and was unwilling to leave.

Jiaohan was obsessed for a moment, as if she couldn't bear the soft words of her well-behaved daughter, Queen Changsun smiled helplessly, took out the flower note, and Princess Changle reached out and took it, jumped two steps, spread out and recited silently, and unconsciously read it out loud: "The clouds want to dress and the flowers want to look, the spring breeze blows Revlon, if it is not for the jade mountain, it will meet Yaotai under the moon." ”

Amazing, absolutely beautiful, everyone heard the voice, their eyes couldn't help but look at the eldest grandson queen, for a while, I only felt that the poem was like its person, its person was like poetry, appropriate, trance, everyone looked back, the most was naturally the noblewomen, the girls, looking directly at Han Rui who was sitting in the precarious seat, his eyes were full of burning light.

If, this poem is written for yourself...... On the high platform, a few positions away from Li Shimin, the four beauties with different styles and beautiful postures also swayed for a while, no matter how noble their identities are, after all, they are women, and there are times when they are greedy for vanity, and they notice a few pairs of slightly blazing eyes, Li Shimin has a headache, and he knows that in the next period of time, the palace may not be so harmonious and stable.

There was no praise at all, for it was clear to everyone that this poem was the best word of praise, magnificent and gorgeous, and the usual cheers and applause were less than one-tenth of them.

Suddenly, Li Chengqian stood up and said softly, "Father." ”

"What?"

Overall, Li Shimin is still in a good mood now, and his smile is a little richer than usual.

The opportunity is rare, although he was a little nervous in his heart, Li Chengqian still had the courage to say: "Han Rui is talented, and his son wants to recruit him as a subordinate official of the East Palace, and I implore my father for permission." ”

Well, Li Shimin's smile faded, hesitated, and then said: "This matter is temporarily discussed, come here, and play the music of King Qin's breaking formation." ”

Under the order, the temple people responded and walked down quickly, Li Chengqian returned to the table in disappointment, Li Tai's eyes flickered, and his smile was still bright, but there were vaguely more differences.

In a moment, a burst of majestic drum music roared, the sound shook in the wild, resounded through the sky, and passed into the ears of everyone, there was an inexplicable excitement of blood boiling, at the right time, in the field, regardless of men and women, old and young, civil officials and military generals, all attention was focused on the stage.

"The emperor of the four seas is quilted, the thousand-year-old virtue and water are clear, and the clothes are not even wearing, and it is said to be a success today." The vigorous and powerful singing voice came, and the armoured guards on both sides stepped forward, and the heavy footsteps accompanied the rhythm of the drum music, which was extremely in line with the rhythm.

"This is King Qin's Breaking Array." At the end of the seat, Han Rui straightened his waist, looked around, looked at the two military guards, as if the two armies were fighting, stepping on the vigorous dance steps, waving the soldiers in his hands, the left circle and the right, the first and then the army, the fish and the goose stork, Ji Zhang Yishu, staggered flexion and extension, head and tail back to each other, every move, pulling people's hearts.

The singing voice is subdued, the sky is thick and thick, the dance is vigorous, between the swinging of the soldiers and the stabs, it is shocking, the blood is spine, and the audio-visual effect is not much different from the film and television blockbusters of later generations, at least in Han Rui's opinion, at least people take it seriously, simulate the confrontation of the real battle formation, and it is not made up nonsense, which is especially affirmative.

I heard that this is just a small scene, the year before last, after the Qin King broke the array music again, he premiered in the Xuanwu Gate, invited the barbarian chiefs to watch, beat the big drums, the sound shook for a hundred miles, the majestic mountains and rivers, the military horses were 2,000, and the team entered, the scene was spectacular, so far people are talking about it, when Han Rui heard it, he couldn't help but be fascinated.

Grapevine, this year's birthday of Li Shimin, that is, December 22, may be able to see the whole picture, Han Rui rubbed his chin, thinking about whose way to go, to ask for an invitation, the problem is that the palace banquet is not as simple as it is now, and the method of entourage, I am afraid it is not very easy.

Just when Han Rui was thinking about it, the breaking array music was nearing the end, and the last stab, all the military guards shouted, closed their hands and stood upright, and made a military salute, but retreated, instantly, the sound of cheers, like a tide, for a long time, even though it was only an excerpt, it already made people fascinated, so the whole picture of dance and music, how majestic and majestic it should be.

"Long live !!"

When the military guards retreated, everyone's mood calmed down a little, but those generals, as if they had found an opportunity to vent, raised their glasses, and later felt that using the cup was not enjoyable, so they simply hugged the wine jar, drank wantonly, and made a lot of noise.

It was almost dusk, the banquet ended, Li Shimin led the crowd to leave first, everyone sent them off, and then dispersed, for a while, in front of the Li Palace, the light car canopy, the incense curtain was flying, it was very lively, I found a time, and Yu Shinan, Ouyang Xun and others said goodbye, Han Rui turned over and got on the horse, ready to leave.

Unexpectedly, one person stopped him and said respectfully: "Master Han, His Royal Highness King Yue is invited." ”
