Brother Fen didn't seem to be in a hurry, and walked slowly on the road for nearly a month. He only arrived in Chang'an in early April, and then ascended the throne as emperor and changed the year to Changyuan. Pan Dabeard, who used to assist him in Youzhou, and several other friends also followed the tide and came to Chang'an to be an official. Fen Ge granted amnesty to the world and exempted several counties with poor harvests from rent. If you want to say that those who are traitors and criminals, I really wish to change the emperor often, because when the new emperor ascends the throne, as long as it is not a great traitor, most of them will be acquitted.

After Brother Fen arrived in Chang'an, Xue Chongxun learned that he was a Tai Chi enthusiast, and after ascending the throne, he didn't do anything else, and played Tai Chi all day long to kill time, which naturally won a lot of favor from Princess Taiping.

With the emperor in the Daming Palace, things are easy to do, and everything has to be justified. Within a few days, the five-color edict canonizing Xue Chongxun as the king of Hedong came down, and everyone was happy for a while.

Xue Chongxun then feasted guests in the palace (that is, the former Weiguo Mansion), and invited the ministers of the court and the generals of the Flying Tiger Regiment of the Yulin Army to come to eat and drink. He didn't break his promise, so he really wrapped up the Qinglou in Anyi Fang, where the palace was located, and let all the kabuprostas in come to the palace to dance and sing for fun.

The house was really busy, seventy or eighty slaves ran as if their feet were not touching the ground, and the bustards among the water clouds were also very helpful, and called the cooks and servants in the building. This is the favor of the king of Hedong, and the proprietress Sister Du didn't even understand how this powerful person fell in love with their little-known Shui Yunjian? In short, it can be related to the Hedong Palace, and the benefits are great.

In the front yard of the palace, several stages were set up to perform programs, and the open-air wooden platform in the courtyard performed military plays, and the people below liked this kind of fun. The performance for the guests invited to the banquet in the north hall was the singing and dancing of beautiful women, and Sister Du arranged the arrangement very attentively, waving a handkerchief and directing with her fingers, eager to use all her strength.

Considering the relationship between Xue Chongxun and Princess Taiping, the ministers of the DPRK and China were quite face-saving, all the six prime ministers came, and the yamen of the six ministries of the three provinces also sent people to give gifts. Xue Chongxun sat in the hall, listening to everyone babbling and saying auspicious words such as congratulations and congratulations, smiling all over his face.

Servants came in with all sorts of delicacies and wine, and courtesans in thin clothes came to the hall with small steps, and danced to the joyful music.

There are wings on both sides of the hall, and the three rooms in the west wing are the places where the kabuites change their clothes and prepare. From time to time, she looks at an hourglass on the dresser, and there is not much time spent on a show, but it is all calculated, to ensure that the VIPs watch it fresh and do not feel bored...... Although the level of a small building like theirs is limited, they can get by with a little more thought.

At this time, more than a dozen dancers walked into the dressing room, and one of the young ladies said to Sister Du: "When we danced just now, didn't I flatter the king of Hedong above......

"What a shame!" The women immediately laughed and cursed.

The little lady pursed her lips and said, "You should listen to me first and then laugh!" I found that the king of Hedong is very familiar......"

Sister Du smiled and said: "Cheng, you all give me a good performance today, I met King Xue another day, and said that you see him very familiar, how about asking him to buy you as a princess and have a good time?" ”

"Mom! You're making fun of people again! The little lady blushed, and then said with a straight face, "I'm serious, do you remember the black-faced Langjun who saved her when Sister Meng had an accident last time?" ”

Sister Du was stunned and said, "You said that the king of Hedong is like that person?" ”

Xiaoniang nodded, looked at Meng Xiaoyu, who was sitting on the side and was dressing up, and said, "Sister Meng, you will go up later, pay attention to it, you are familiar with him, most of you can't look away." ”

Meng Xiaoyu said faintly: "The people who met in Pingshui haven't seen anyone for a few months, and they may have forgotten about it, what do you mention him for?" What else are you involved with the king, there are so many people in Chang'an, and when you go out, you meet all the county kings, so who will be the common people? ”

After hearing this, everyone felt that it was also such a reason, so they lost interest.

"Sister Meng wants to perform a sword dance, don't let those officials think it's a Hongmen banquet...... What is that called, Xiang Zhuang Dancing Sword! Then another woman joked.

Meng Xiaoyu pulled out the sword in his hand and said, "It's wooden, it's just gold powder plated on the outside." Mom said that there were many generals among the guests, and they were tired of singing and dancing, and they would be happy to have a sword dance. ”

At this moment, a person outside shouted: "Yun Niang, they are about to finish dancing, Meng Xiaoyu hurried over, and the drummer, are they all ready?" ”

"Alright, alright, here we are."

So the group left the wing room and walked towards the hall to the north.

The hall was lively, people were eating and drinking while talking happily, at this time the doors and windows suddenly hung up opaque curtains, the hall was darkened all of a sudden, everyone suddenly coaxed, some unobtrusive generals shouted: "Why do you make it so dark in broad daylight!" ”

Xue Chongxun, who was wearing purple silk on the right seat, said calmly: "It must be a new show, and the princes are not impatient." ”

Sure enough, a screen was moved from the carpet in the hall, and a light was lit behind the screen. Seeing this, Xue Chongxun became interested, and said in his heart: Damn, can you watch movies in the Tang Dynasty?

At this moment, a graceful female figure appeared behind the screen-like screen of the movie screen, and the outline of her body was reflected on the paper, and the curves were very graceful. "Oh!" The crowd exclaimed in amazement and exclaimed that it was funny.

"Knock knock!" The small drum was rhythmic, and the woman behind the screen danced the sword to the beat of the drum, sometimes light and dynamic, sometimes elegant and slow, very beautiful. The shadow of the skirt fluttered on the screen, and everyone was itchy, and those generals didn't know what it meant to be hazy and beautiful, and they shouted: "Xue Lang, quickly ask someone to open the curtains on the doors and windows, and see what this little lady looks like!" ”

Xue Chongxun then said: "Come on, remove the curtain and let the guests see it clearly." ”

The servants had to remove the curtains, and the hall was lit up again. At this time, Meng Xiaoyu danced out from behind the screen and continued to dance to the beat of the drum.

At this time, Xue Chongxun recognized her, his expression changed slightly, but it was not a big deal when he thought about it, and he regained his composure.

Meng Xiaoyu's body turned, her long skirt flew up like an immortal, her flexible waist supported her upper body and leaned back, and the sword stabbed obliquely from the front of the placket, light and elegant. Everyone was overjoyed and praised with their palms: "Good! Good!" At this time, the drum beat suddenly rushed, the sword in her hand changed and waved, and her body was graceful, as if she was in a fierce fight.

At this time, Meng Xiaoyu took the time to look at it, and immediately recognized her "black bull"! A Lang Jun who met by chance turned out to be the king of Hedong?

Her mind was in a mess, and when the sword dance was in a hurry, she accidentally stepped on the corner of her skirt and fell to the ground with a "plop".

"Ahh The crowd cried out in disappointment. The people of the Xue family immediately scolded and blamed, and wanted to find them responsible for taking care of things. Meng Xiaoyu hurriedly got up, blushed and said, "Please forgive King Xue." ”

Seeing that she looked sweet and well-behaved, the officials also helped to intercede: "Xue Lang, forget it, we are quite happy to see it." ”

Unexpectedly, Xue Chongxun didn't mean to blame, stretched out his hand to make a gesture of help, and said in a concerned tone: "Did you fall?" ”

Meng Xiaoyu's face was red, and he whispered, "Don't worry." ”

Xue Chongxun laughed and looked back at everyone: "The sword dance just now made me very poetic, and I really want to write a poem!" ”

Lu Xiangxian said with great interest: "Xue Lang, why don't you let me wait to hear about it?" ”

Xue Chongxun pondered for a moment, and then said cheekily: "Drunk to pick up the lamp to see the sword, dream back to blow the horn company camp." Eight hundred miles of moxibustion, fifty strings turned over the outside sound. Autumn soldiers on the battlefield. The horse-made Lu was fast, and the bow was like a thunderbolt. But the king of the world, won the name before and after his death. Poor white happens! ”

The civil officials tasted it, and their faces changed suddenly: This Xue Chongxun has repeatedly threatened to use troops against Tubo, and today is he using the topic to play?

Dou Huaizhen, who was handsome and dashing, smiled and looked back at everyone: "Today is to congratulate Xue Lang on being crowned king, and I don't talk about official business." What else is there to show, how about we continue to watch singing and dancing? ”

The officials echoed for a while, and Meng Xiaoyu saluted when he saw this: "The slave retires." ”

The drummers and slaves hurriedly came up and put away the screens, musical instruments and other props, Meng Xiaoyu walked to the door, and suddenly turned back and said, "Do you know how to use the sword, the king of the county?" ”

Today, this courtesan was really bold, and even talked to her master in public, and everyone looked at Xue Chongxun with great interest to see how he could deal with it. Unexpectedly, Xue Chongxun was able to let go of his identity, and he was not angry at all, and said, "Tell me about it." ”

Meng Xiaoyu remembered that Xue Chongxun stepped forward between the water and clouds, so she smiled: "Protect the weak." ”

The speaker had no intention, but the listener had a heart, and the generals were in an uproar, and they all hugged their fists and said: "Our Datang will not send the land or people, let me wait to draw my sword to defend His Royal Highness Jincheng!" "The generals and the officials of the political hall have different thoughts, they just want to make meritorious contributions and make kings and marquises, and their positions are different.

At this time, a prime minister said lightly: "The palace is not a court, I came here to congratulate Xue Lang, but not to discuss court affairs, this has to reach the ears of His Royal Highness, and it is not easy for me to say." ”

Xue Chongxun smiled with a complicated expression: "What the elder said is very true, let's not talk about this matter, drink and enjoy the dance!" ”

In fact, his idea was to hope that the imperial court would use troops, and then try to get a larger military power himself; But taking into account the meaning of his mother, Princess Taiping, he didn't want to work against her. Taiping is his big backer, so from the perspective of official affairs, it is wise for him to comply with the decision of the political affairs hall.

What he can't let go of, it's still a private matter, and he is really reluctant to Jincheng. G
