"Today is the thirtieth day of the lunar month, and I invite all the princes to come, one is to separate for a year, and to reunite with each other to keep the New Year; These are two things that I am extremely happy to share, and I want to share them with you! β
Li Shimin looked very excited, and he beckoned to Li Yuanba, who was standing not far away.
Li Yuanba walked over slowly, bowed and saluted: "Brother Huang! β
Li Yuanba's voice was not loud, but at this moment the hall was very quiet, Li Yuanba said this, and the surrounding relatives who did not know Li Yuanba all started to discuss.
"Who is this? How can you call your majesty the royal brother? β
"You live in Longxi, I have lived in Jiangnan Road for a long time, you don't know, where do I know?"
"Is it our outcast brother?"
Among these people, there are more than a dozen of Li Yuanba's cheap brothers, they are all rushed back from their own fiefdoms in various states, but don't look at their many brothers, but in addition to knowing each other, there are few good relationships.
"This, the princes may or may not have seen it, but you must know his name!"
Li Shimin didn't care about the noise below, patted Li Yuanba on the shoulder, and said: "He is Li Yuanba, the Divine Warrior King, the fourth son of Gaozu and the brother of my mother!" The first thing I did was to introduce Yuanba to my Li royal family, so as not to see each other outside in the future, and the family would not know the family! β
"Huh? He is Li Yuanba? β
"Shhh, it's the Fourth Emperor Brother, don't look at the young man who was born, but his real age is much older than ours!"
The Li clan members who came to the banquet have been away for many years. Although they knew that the four emperor brothers Yuanba did not die, they had never seen it, and at today's royal family banquet, they finally saw this famous prince, and the expressions on everyone's faces were naturally strange.
"What about this second thing...... Li Shimin didn't look at everyone's faces, but continued to say the second thing: "Today is the most complete family banquet in the history of my Tang Dynasty!" Liu Sanshui, please be the emperor! β
"Please Emperor Tai!"
Liu Sanshui lowered his eyebrows and said in a loud voice, and at the same time, he hurriedly walked towards the outside of the hall with a flick of his body.
After that, it's a few breaths. Li Yuan, who was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe and still had a hosta hairpin, walked into the main hall in a hurry, not like an old man who was about to die, but like a victorious general who had returned victoriously.
"The Emperor, it's really the Emperor!"
Because of the Xuanwumen Change, Li Yuan had not participated in the royal family gathering for seven years. He seldom even goes out, and the only time he interacts with outsiders is when he eats and has fun. Therefore, seeing Li Yuan actually appear on such an occasion, all the imperial relatives in the palace were a little dumbfounded.
"I've seen Grandpa Huang!"
In the end, it was the seed of the old Li family, or Li Chengqian, who saw the opportunity quickly, and took the lead in kneeling down to Li Yuan and saluting.
Other princes and princesses are also doing the same. He knelt down and kowtowed.
Although the Tang Dynasty has a relaxed etiquette system, even if the people see today's saints, they don't have to bow down, but Li Yuan in front of him is the grandfather of Li Chengqian and others, as a son of man. Since he should be filial piety, this kneeling is a matter of course, even if it is the imperial history, he can't say anything.
They knelt down. It is practicing filial piety, but those Li Yuan's sons and the imperial relatives who came to the banquet are self-assured, and they will never bow to Li Yuan, but they all bow to Li Yuan, and praise: "We have seen the emperor!" β
"Well, yes, yes! You're Cheng Qian, aren't you? Back then, you were only so small, but I didn't expect that after so many years, you have indeed grown a lot taller! β
Li Yuan personally helped Li Chengqian up, and at the same time motioned to everyone to be exempted, saying, "Let's all be exempted!" I'm just a sixty or seventy-year-old man, you don't have to care, you still do what you have to do! I'm here today just because I promised De'er a promise, that's all! β
ββ¦β¦β
Li Shimin's eyes widened, the eldest grandson Wuji opened his mouth wide in shock, and Cheng bit the pastry that Jin was gnawing on, but it fell unconsciously......
Li Shimin and others, who knew that Li Yuan said nothing and did not allow others to disobey his character, were all frightened by Li Yuan's simple two sentences, is this still Emperor Gaozu back then?
Could it be that these years of claustrophobic and idle life have smoothed out the edges and corners of the emperor, making him look down on power, and even forget the grief of losing his son and seeing his own son killing each other?
"Brother Huang, is the dinner party ready to start?" Seeing that Li Shimin was a little stunned, Li Yuanba hurriedly pulled him lightly and said, "Don't worry, my father has already told me, just come to have a meal, just look at my grandson and granddaughter by the way, nothing will happen!" β
"Really?" Li Shimin was a little uneasy, his lips squirmed for a long time, and finally spit out two words.
"Really, truly, truer than pearls!" Li Yuanba nodded very strictly.
"So, let's get started!" Li Shimin glanced at Li Yuanba seriously and waved his hand lightly.
"Your Majesty has a purpose, the dinner party begins!"
Liu Sanshui shouted very interestingly, and in an instant, the musicians in the hall, the bamboo flute with the guqin, the melodious flute sound was attached to the beautiful guqin music, fluttering and swaying, and went around the beam.
A graceful woman with a name of about twenty-eight flowers, wearing a green emerald smoke long-sleeved shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers and mist and green grass, and a series of enchanting light blue cloud patterns on the wide cuffs, and green silk on her head, as if dyed with ink!
When the sound of the flute and flute is gently raised, these singers dance with long sleeves, shoulders, chins, and arms...... A dazzling action, smart, elegant, like flowing water, as if there are countless delicate petals gently flying between the sky and the earth, dizzying.
"Dancing and singing, tactful, like a warbler! Wonderful! β
Li Yuanba, who was sitting at the front of Li Shimin's head, couldn't help but clap his hands and praise when he saw this beautiful dance.
Although he has seen a lot of classical Chinese dances in later generations, there has never been one like the dances seen today, giving him a wonderful feeling of combining natural dynamism and bewitching beauty.
"Dancing and dancing. Qu tactful...... It's aptly described! Li Yuan sat beside Li Yuanba, and after hearing his son's words, he couldn't help but smile and said: "De'er, I remember that when you were a child, you couldn't learn the Four Books and Five Classics at all, let alone those subsets of scriptures and histories!" Why is it that today's literary brilliance is extraordinary, and the export has become a chapter? β
Damn, it's broken, it's broken! I forgot that there was a cheap dad sitting next to him!
His eyes rolled, and Li Yuanba moved out the set that fooled Li Shimin again, only to hear him say:
"Father. The child doesn't know what's going on! Although after waking up this time, the memory of nineteen years ago is indeed lost, but there are many strange memories in the child's mind, as long as it is used, some useful things will naturally appear when you think about it, and it feels like a completely different person! β
Hey, dude, that's the truth, it's just a different person!
"And such a thing?" Li Yuan was skeptical, he picked up a piece of braised pork and stuffed it into his mouth. said with great interest: "De'er, you didn't deceive me? β
Li Yuanba didn't have time to speak, but Xiao Li Zhi, who ran to the juice, happened to pass by Li Yuanba. After hearing this question, he proudly interjected:
"Grandpa Huang, Uncle Four Emperors didn't lie to you! The Fourth Emperor Uncle is really powerful, it is said that the Wang family and the two young patriarchs of the Lu family. They were all won by the Four Emperor Uncles and vomited blood! β
"I remember that you are Xiao Jiu, a young slave, right? Come, come to the Imperial Grandpa! Li Yuan glanced at the little guy. After Li Zhi came over, he picked him up, put him on his lap, and said, "Childish slave, are you talking about the Wang family and the Lu family in the five surnames and seven hopes?" β
"Hmm!" Li Zhi nodded his little head and replied very seriously: "I heard my father say that the four emperor uncles compared the two families with the 'six arts of gentlemen', and they only compared the four arts and defeated those two families!" And they also lost a lot of gold and silver treasures to the Four Emperor Uncles, as well as some ancient books! β
"Really, Yuanba?"
At this moment, Li Yuan's eyes were about to pop out when he heard this.
As the so-called family knows their own family affairs, Li Yuanba when he was a child was really a naughty and mischievous expert, and he always ran away from his master, so that later, this thing could only barely write his name.
This miracle happened after 19 years of ice? Also a gentleman with six arts, what are you kidding?
ββ¦β¦β
Li Yuanba was also a little speechless, it seems that the previous body was really a simple-minded and well-developed product! Otherwise, it's just a win over a few pretentious unlucky kids, as for all the fuss?
Just when Li Yuanba was pondering, completely dispelling Li Yuan's doubts.
At this moment, taking advantage of the interval between singing and dancing, the fourth prince Yue Wang Li Tai came out of the crowd, bowed to Li Shimin, and said: "Father, today's banquet and feast to keep the New Year, if you just eat and drink, enjoy singing and dancing, it is too monotonous!" Erchen JianyΓ¬, why don't you start a poem? β
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows when he heard this, looked at Li Tai with some curiosity, and said, "Qingque, you can talk about it!" β
Li Tai nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Father Emperor, today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and tonight is the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the relatives of each family must have returned home!" According to Erchen, how about taking this 'Chinese New Year's Eve', 'reunion', and 'keeping the year' as the theme? The three questions can be played freely, whether it is five words or seven words, or long and short sentences, as long as the meaning is good, you can do it! Father, what do you think? β
"Hahaha, you're going to have fun!" Li Shimin laughed and said, "Okay, just according to your words!" However, since this poetry will be proposed by you, you will throw bricks and lead the jade!
