Don. "Music Journal" said: "On the fifth day of the seventh month, all countries come to the court, stay until the 15th in the Qinglongmen outside the end gate, accept the barbarians of all countries successively, stretch for eight miles, and list the opera as the theater, and congratulate the world. ”

Chang'an Zhuque Street, from west to east, there is a viewing avenue about 1,500 steps long, when it was first built, Li Er personally gave the name of Yanta Square, and ordered people to build up to more than 100 portrait sculptures showing the magnificent landscape of the Tang Dynasty on this viewing avenue, most of them are soldiers array, loading artillery and other sculptures that show the powerful armed forces of the Tang Dynasty.

Whenever you come to Yanta Square and witness the sculptures of the Tang Dynasty that never sleeps, you will be respected, and this group of beautifully designed sculptures shows the magnificent scene of the mighty Tang Dynasty and the powerful armament.

After Li Erwu's reign, it is no exaggeration to say that the Tang Dynasty has become the most powerful and civilized country in the world, and has become the universal land of the East in the world. The culture of the Tang Dynasty spread far to the East and the West, and the Chinese civilization influenced the world. These array sculptures are the prosperous scene of the Tang Dynasty, which is powerful all over the world and proud of the world.

Li Er seems to like to see these sculpture groups very much, so after the completion of the viewing avenue in Yanta Square, he ordered the construction of a theme sculpture group in the Nanshan Academy in Zhongnan Mountain, mainly telling the stories of great men, heroes, classic works of art, etc., and striving to show the supreme status of the Tang Empire in the fields of religion, literature, art, science and technology, and highlight the atmosphere of a great power......

"Lu Dongzan, are these sculptures made by the Tang people?" A young man in a gorgeous Tibetan robe with a twinkle in his eyes looked out the car window at the viewing avenue and asked a little wryly.

in the carriage. A middle-aged man with a beard bowed slightly and said, "Respected Songtsen Gampo." Everything you see through this window. It was all built by the Tang people. Lu Dongzan's tone was very flat, but it was still difficult to hide a trace of jealousy.

After listening to Lu Dongzan's words, the young man was silent for a moment, and then said with some amazement: "I have always heard that the Tang Kingdom is prosperous and powerful, this king has never really understood, and when I can go to Chang'an today, I know that this place is so prosperous, and I have no comparable power in Tibet." ”

Lu Dongzan heard that the Lord would actually let out such an emotion. Hurriedly comforted: "Songtsen Gampo, don't say that, the Tang people have a saying, called self-indulgence, which means that they belittle themselves, God has given the Tang people a prosperous city, but they have lost their strong physique, you know, those Tang people will be weak and tired when they climb the land of our mountain clan." And when our Tibetan warriors arrive in the Central Plains, their spirits will be even more abundant. Your Majesty hopes that you should be like the words of the Tang people, and you should not be presumptuous. ”

Lu Dongzan's comfort had some effect, and the eyes of the young man in the gorgeous Tibetan robe were no longer as disappointed as just now, but suddenly became very firm, and he said with a resolute expression: "This time this king came to the Tang Dynasty in person, and he must ask the emperor of the Tang Dynasty to marry the princess of the Tang Kingdom, and get to know this powerful ally!" ”……

"Words are based on words, Yao Qing should compose a poem with the title of crane." Li Er smiled and said, there is no dynasty today, and high-ranking civil and military officials gather, it is rare for the Quartet to come to the court, so he and Zhong Aiqing will talk about poetry and ambition together, and wait for those small barbarian countries to come to Chang'an from all directions.

"The crane sings and the crane flies,

The sky is sunny and the clouds are clear.

Wine Jiasu scatters fragrant flowers,

Luan Xiang Fengji is the first country. ”

After Yao Silian finished chanting the poem, there was a burst of applause, Li Er also heard that the poem praised the harmony between the monarch and the minister, the smile on his face became more and more peaceful, he raised the cup in his hand, looked around, and said: "There is a fairy grass, there should be a crane!" ”

"Yes, yes." The close attendant who had been waiting behind Li Er listened to Li Er's question about Hecao. Busy commanding the palace people to bring five or six pots of flowers from a distance, placed next to Li Er, thinking that the close attendant of the painting also introduced casually: "Crane grass, originally from the South China Sea, shaped like a flying crane, beak, tail, wings, feet are all prepared, generally bloom in summer, far-reaching, stretching Yongchang." ”

"Haha, yes, yes." Li Er smiled and said: "I only got a bird two days ago, and now I have crane grass, which is really auspicious." ”

When the civil and military officials heard about it, they all complimented Li Ershengming.

"The crane is a thousand years old, and he swims extremely much, and all the Aiqing follow me on the boat and have fun with the crane."

As soon as the waiter heard this, he hurriedly commanded the person to transfer the dragon boat and rearrange the banquet, Li Er boarded the dragon boat under the service of the waiter and the bachelor, and before he could sit down, Li Er had another idea and ordered the waiter: "Hurry up and call Yan Liben and draw a picture of "Crane Tour" to commemorate!" ”

The phrase "call quickly" is not trivial, and immediately a fast-paced eunuch flew to find someone.

Yan Liben, a native of Yongzhou Wannian, once painted "Eighteen Bachelors of the Qin Palace", a famous painter at that time, and the characters painted are exquisite and expressive, which can be called a must. Later, he was invited by Xu Yang to join the academy and became a professor of drawing in the civil engineering department of the academy, but he had an official position, and he served as the lord of the court, and when the paper money was introduced, the patterns on the denomination were all drawn by him, so he spent far less time teaching in the academy than he was on duty in the palace.

There was no class in the academy today, and Yan Liben was busy in the south ya, when he heard the thunder outside the gate and paging like thunder: "Painter Yan Liben!" Painter Yan Liben! ”

Yan Liben knew that it was an urgent matter, so he hurriedly ran out of the door, and a eunuch had already rushed over and beckoned: "Hurry, hurry!" The emperor recruited you to paint! ”

"Wait for me to change my clothes." Yan Liben said.

"Change of clothes?" The eunuch was so anxious that he almost pulled Yan Liben up: "The emperor is on the boat, waiting for you to paint!" ”

Yan Liben had no choice but to follow the eunuch with his clothes straightened, three steps and two steps, feeling that Xuanwumen, a waiting internal official, did not say a word, and slapped the face of the pipe: "The emperor summons people, and he dares to grind, run forward!" ”

The eunuch didn't dare to say anything if he was wronged, wiped his tears, pulled Yan Liben and galloped up, he was not allowed to ride a horse in the harem, so he could only run.

Yan Liben is also a literati and celebrity, although he was called by the emperor, but regardless of Sven, he ran with the eunuch, he always felt a little unsightly, he panted and said to the eunuch running next to him: "Isn't it...... Isn't it just drawing? Need...... So urgent? ”

"Huh-" The eunuch's eyes were round, and he looked at Yan Liben and said, "Look at what you said, the emperor can still wait for you on the dragon boat?!" ……”……

"How can the painter Yan Liben still have the future." Li Er sat on the dragon boat and asked with some displeasure.

A close attendant suddenly ran in the distance and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the envoy of the Tubo Dynasty has arrived............ (To be continued......)
