Chapter 32: The Sword Dance
This person is dressed in exotic clothes, with many small braids on his head, and an exaggerated silver earring on his earlobe, rich eyebrows, slightly dark skin, deep eye sockets, and long eyelashes.
When the eldest prince saw everyone looking at the man, he got up and walked to the young man: "This palace is here to introduce you to you, this one next to this palace is the five princes of Dianyue Kingdom who came to my Taijing as a guest." ”
Everyone present, you look at me, I look at you, and finally tacitly toasted the Ukrainian prince.
It turned out that this was the proton escorted by General Shen, Ji Zhun observed quietly.
A small episode, the banquet continues. Some young ladies of the family wanted to be in the limelight, and deliberately waited until the birthday banquet began to present gifts to the Queen Mother.
The young lady of the Ministry of Shangshu sang a song for the Queen Mother on the spot, Ye Xirui also went up to play the Konghou, and the two young ladies of the Taichang Siqing and Honglu Siqing choreographed the dance together.
The Queen Mother was very happy and gave each of the ladies who presented their talents a brocade box, in which there was a hollow double-sided peony golden step.
Ye Xirui stepped forward to take the brocade box handed over by the palace maid, thanked the queen mother, and passed by Ji Zhun when she returned to the table.
The Queen Mother took advantage of the gap to raise her glass and turned to the Ukrainian prince and said: "The Ukrainian came to Taijing this time, are you still used to living there?" Can you enjoy the beautiful scenery of our capital? "Even though it's a proton, there is still a courtesy that should be there.
"Thank you, Queen Mother, the Uzbekia likes Taijing very much! The food here is good, the use is good, there is a beautiful view, and there are beautiful people! The Uzbek got up and replied.
When the ladies and ladies present heard this, they took out their handkerchiefs to cover their mouths and steal fun. Sure enough, it is a small country proton, and I have never seen the world.
The Ukrainian was unimpressed by their actions, he raised his glass and said to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother, the Ukrainian loves Taijing too much, the Ukrainian has a reluctant request, and I hope the Queen Mother will fulfill it." ”
The Queen Mother asked with interest, "Oh? What does the little prince want? Let's talk about mourning. ”
The Ukrainian glanced at the female guest seat, and then said: "When I first entered Beijing, I heard that there is a beautiful young lady in the British Mansion, who is both civil and military, and the Ukrainian is very admired, and wants to ask the Queen Mother to call the shots and marry this beautiful Miss Ji to the Uzbeki. ”
Puff ~ cough cough cough ......
There was a rush of soldiers during the banquet, and coughing sounds came from all around.
Ji Zhun could feel that the eyes of everyone present were quietly observing her, sympathetic and pitiful, but more of them were watching the fire from the other side and watching from the wall.
Brigadier Ji slowly put down the spoon in his hand, picked up the teacup and took a sip again, as long as the Queen Mother didn't speak, what was she anxious about.
Sure enough, the queen mother here spoke: "Uzbek prince, although our Taijing's marriage must follow the words of the matchmaker according to the orders of our parents, sometimes we also ask for your affection and my wishes." You say you've taken a fancy to her, do you recognize her? ”
The Uzbek turned to face the female guest seat, put his right hand on his left chest, and performed a Dianyue etiquette on Ji Zhun's side, "Miss Ji, the Uzbes admire you very much when they hear about your talent." ”
In this way, Ji Zhun couldn't sit still, she got up, saluted the Queen Mother first, and then said to the Uzbek: "Uzbek Prince, you and I are seeing each other for the first time, how can I admire him." ”
The whole person of the Ukrainian nationality looked a little excited, "Although I have never seen Miss Ji before, I often hear people mention Ji Zhun of the British Mansion, and they all say that Miss Ji is not only beautiful, but also has martial arts. ”
The eyes of the Woo turned around on Ji Zhun's face, and then said, "I wonder if the Ukrainians are lucky enough to be able to enjoy Miss Ji's sword dance today?" ”
The crowd watching the play began to whisper again, what does this Ukrainian prince mean? Is this public molesting discipline?
Ji Zhun smiled: "It seems that the Ukrainian prince really hasn't been here for a long time in my Taijing, and he doesn't know much about my Taijing." ”
The people who were sitting below watching the play, seeing Ji Zhun speak, gradually quieted down, they wanted to see how Ji Zhun responded, whether he would go crazy on the spot and beat up the Ukrainian prince.
Ji Zhun stood there, neither humble nor arrogant: "In my Taijing, anyone who wears a sword does not take it as his responsibility to please others. And our Ji family is loved by His Majesty, and the blades of the Ji family dare not be unsheathed at will. ”
Ji Zhun used the most peaceful face, the softest tone, and said the sharpest words, like a knife, and stabbed the weakness of the Ukrainian prince fiercely.
When he was out of the sheath and served the country, wasn't it the Ji family who resisted the attack of Dianyue at the border pass.
Isn't his Ukrainian nationality the proton of the defeated country, and there are still fewer souls in the hands of the Ji family army in Dianyue country.
Of course, Ji Zhun's words were exaggerated, but after listening to the young sons present, they felt that their hearts were unspeakably churning hot, although most of the people present today were Wensheng sons, but the young people were strong-blooded, who had never imagined that 'the bow back Xia Ming sword shines on the frost, and the autumn wind goes out of Xianyang.' ’
In this way, at the instigation of Ji Zhun, these young men stood on Ji Zhun one after another, and whispered in the banquet.
The Uzbeth suffered a dark loss, and his face was a little unbearable, but he was still not discouraged, and said to Ji Zhun: "In this case, it is the Ukrainian's abruptness, but I want to marry Miss Ji Qin Jinzhi's good heart is true, I heard that the men of Taijing like gentle and frugal women, and the Ukrainians are different, I like a girl like Miss Ji who is freshly dressed and angry." ”
Ji Zhun was noncommittal, and asked the Ukrainian nationality: "Oh? The Ukrainian prince kept saying that he liked me, so please forgive Ji Zhun for being unreasonable. If I want to talk about family affairs, I always have to ask clearly, where is the Ukrainian prince stronger than my Taijingerlang? Is it enough for me to willingly leave this prosperous world and marry thousands of miles away? ”
The Ukrainian was choked by Ji Zhun, he had long understood that Taijing women mostly avoided talking about marriage or blushed shyly. He didn't expect Ji Zhun to dare to stand in front of the palace and talk about his marriage in front of so many people.
Although he was instructed to marry Ji Zhun today, he was also interested in Ji Zhun at this time.
The Ukrainian stood with his hands in his hands, and his expression began to become unruly: "The Ukrainian is not talented, and he has also learned some articles, and he is not inferior to Taijing's sons and brothers in horseback archery." ”
Ji Zhun tilted his head, revealing a kind of coquettishness that contrasted with his cold face, and pretended to be surprised: "Oh? The Ukrainian prince also rides and shoots? Can it be compared to Taijing Erlang? Fu changed back to his usual light smile: "I don't think so." ”
Ji Zhun had a joking expression, and his words were a little unkind. The Ukrainians also grew up outside the Saiwai, and horseback archery is even more common.
The fire of the Uzbek nationality rose up at once: "Miss Ji! What do you mean by this, I am a dignified prince! Aren't you as good as these weak scholars?! ”
Suddenly, some of the sons present took the case.
The Queen Mother also frowned slightly, but after all, she was the Queen Mother, and she couldn't argue with the prince of a small country, so she set her eyes on Ji Zhun, and Ji Zhun raised his hand to the angry sons over there, so that they could calm down.
The face was still calm, she turned around, and said unhurriedly to the Uzbe: "His Royal Highness the prince is angry, Ji Zhun is also on the matter, and he doesn't want to slander you, but just say that he doesn't practice fake tricks, and the side is the martial arts field. ”
Wu was already irritated by Ji Zhun, and immediately nodded in agreement, he didn't think he would lose to a Taijing woman with fine skin and tender meat.
"Humph! The beauties are invited, the Ukrainians are better than the Ukrainians, I think it is better to add another lottery, if I win Miss Ji, I will ask Miss Ji to marry the Uzbeks willingly. ”
