Chapter 121: Dazzling
In the middle of summer, highland flowers of various colors bloom in the lush pastures, spreading the grassland into a large carpet of infinite flowers.
On the carpet, the yellow flowers of buttercup and yellow violet are the main colors, the wolf venom with white edge and red heart, the dark purple iris, and the light purple gentian are embellished, and the white anemone and dandelion outline the brocade.
The blue sky is like washing, the white clouds are like a flock of sheep on the ground, gathering for a while and spreading out for a while, under the blue sky and white clouds, the undulating green mountains and the clear blue waves of the lake are intertwined, looking at it is refreshing and pleasant.
In the solemn and vigorous music, two rows of dancers wearing tall red tasseled hats, bows in their left hands, swords in their right hands, jewels and jade around their necks, and brocade ribbons walked to the lakeside.
They fanned out, and the lead dancer, who held a sword in one hand and a round lion-headed shield in the other, stepped forward, his face was obscured by the shield, but his figure looked taller and more majestic than the other dancers.
"The dancers of the pot (dancers with weapons) are all male, and this kind of dance is usually only seen in religious ceremonies and grand scenes. I didn't expect that we were still strange today, I must have heard that Her Royal Highness the princess came over, and they specially arranged it. Buchi explained to everyone in a whisper.
The flag was leading, the trombone opened the way, and someone hit the cymbals next to it. With the sound of cymbals, the dancers raise their hands, stretch their legs, spin, and roar, their movements are slow and solemn, dignified and dignified, and there is a special kind of majestic beauty, which makes people hold their breath unconsciously, and feel that the landscape is a little more solemn.
The man who led the dance finally turned around, and the moment the sun shone in the middle of the lake, the man who had been hiding behind the shield revealed his true face.
It was a very handsome face, almost perfectly described.
Bronzed skin, dark hair color, eyebrows, pupils as deep as hair color eyebrows, straight nose bridge, thin lips pursed, the whole person looks as sharp as a sharp blade, cold like a cold sword qi.
Seeing Li Yuntong, he suddenly smiled.
The smile neutralized his coldness and made his whole body bright and dazzling.
This kind of smile is often seen by Li Yuntong on Lu Dongzan's face.
Although they were both tall and heroic, their faces did not resemble, and if two people stood together, no one would ever consider them brothers.
But this smile gives them a resemblance, and it makes one lose sight of their own coldness and cruelty.
It's just that Lu Dongzan laughs most of the time, so it makes people feel that he is gentle and harmless, and approachable, but this person rarely laughs, and the sudden smile makes people feel dazzling and dazzling, and they can't look at it directly.
Just like the rays of the sun, it can be very warm, or it can be scorching.
One is smiling like the winter sun, warm, and the other is the midsummer sun, so hot that people want to escape.
Li Yuntong was stunned.
She didn't expect to see him here, that Qi ...... Childe, one of her saviors.
Until the pot wow danced, she was still a little distracted.
Seeing the dancers going down, she hurriedly beckoned and said to Buchi, "Tell them about it, and invite the man who led the dance just now." ”
Bu Chi was thinking about going down, but Li Yuntong stopped her again, "Forget it, let them continue to watch the song and dance below, you accompany me to go out quietly and look for the man just now." ”
Today, in order not to disturb the people, she and her entourage and maidservants have changed into the robes of the locals to watch the singing and dancing, the maids of the Teng Concubine Palace surround her, the guards are also scattered around to protect secretly, and the local guards arranged by Lu Dongzan protect each other, but after all, they look different, and there are already many people looking at them along the way, if she calls Qi Zonglong over, I am afraid that it will be too eye-catching.
Again, that Qi Zonglong seems to be a very proud person, he saved himself, he didn't go to see him, but let people summon him over, which might cause him to misunderstand, but it was not good.
So she thought about it and decided to go to find Qi Zonglong by herself.
Although he felt strange in his heart, Bu Chi had been explained by Lu Dongzan before, and when she was told to follow Li Yuntong, don't talk much, everything is subject to her arrangement, Bu Chi nodded, and while everyone was happy, he sneaked out of the crowd with Li Yuntong.
Qiu Feng and Dong Qing were mainly protecting Li Yuntong, and when they saw her and Bu Chi squeezing out of the crowd, they also followed out, following them from a distance.
Because she was in a hurry to find someone, Li Yuntong didn't notice that as she walked, more and more people approached her, and more and more eyes gathered on her.
It wasn't until she realized that the eyes of those people were wrong that she remembered that she hadn't come out wearing a hat because she was in a hurry.
Not to mention her completely different appearance from the locals, with her white skin, among these Tubo people who are either dark or wheat-colored, she is like moonlight and snow-capped mountains, which is indeed too eye-catching.
No, she has to find something to cover, and if she goes on like this, even if no one pays attention to her, she will be sunburned. Li Yuntong took off the big shawl and covered his hair, and pressed it into the middle with his hand, trying to separate himself from the dazzling sunlight and those stares.
The crowd suddenly dispersed, and someone handed out an umbrella from the side and propped it on top of Li Yuntong's head, blocking the scorching sun for her.
Li Yuntong turned his head and saw Qi Zonglong on the other side of the umbrella.
"Hey, I didn't expect to meet you here." Songtsen Gampo smiled, and did not explain at all that he was actually called Abandon Zonglong, he was the Zanpu of Tibet.
He felt that it was good to know her like this and get closer to her step by step, than it was better for them to know each other because of the marriage between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo.
Unexpectedly, the one who saved her that day turned out to be Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty, his wife, well, this is really good.
Rather than a political marriage, she had to marry, and he preferred her to fall in love with him and be dead to him.
Just like the rest of his women.
Mourn for him, rejoice for him, and take his will as heaven and earth.
He wants her people, but he also wants her heart.
Besides, she's really beautiful.
The sun was so intense, but her face was moonlight, as white as a white snow lotus, light makeup, eyebrows and red lips, long hair combed into many small braids, decorated with red and yellow strings of colored stones, and her hair was draped with a large piece of brocade, sewn with silver coins and shells, and with every step, it jingled.
He had been watching her for a while, and she was just walking on the grassland, but it was inexplicable that she was light and silent, like a person in a painting walking out of a trance.
Walk up to him.
It's like the fox demon in those books.
Fortunately, he is not a useless scholar and will not be hooked.
Songtsen Gampo looked at Li Yuntong, and his smile became more and more intense.
Li Yuntong also smiled, although there was a surprise, but it was polite and detached, appropriate.
"Qi Gongzi, I didn't expect to meet you here, I always want to thank you for saving your life, that day, I went with my father to thank you, who knew that someone had gone to the empty house......"
"Oh, it's a bit of a rush, so I'll go first. I didn't have time to say goodbye, and I hope the girl will forgive me. Songtsen Gampo explained it in a serious way.
Li Yuntong's surprise aggravated, "Childe, you speak Chinese much more fluently." ”
"I was very sad to say goodbye to the girl that day, thinking that maybe he would have a chance to meet one day and be able to talk to you." Songtsen Gampo spoke this drama very seriously, as if every word was from the heart.
looks so good, why don't you look like a good person when you say it? If he said this to a man, it was nothing, but she was a woman, and he would be a little more funny.
If it weren't for the fact that his expression didn't look too unshy, just saying this, Li Yuntong's impression of him would be discounted.
She wouldn't be mistaken for what he was interested in.
In his eyes, there was amazement and appreciation, but there was no affection.
Li Yuntong also didn't want him to have any affection for himself, although he was her savior, but she was not interested in making a promise, whether she was a promiser or not, the handsome man in front of her was not the type she liked.
He's so blazing that he'll burn anyone who comes close to him to ashes.
Instinctively, Li Yuntong felt that Songtsen Gampo was very dangerous.
She smiled and explained seriously: "The word "hand and hand joy" means that there was a discord in the past and reconciliation in the future, so it can't be used like this. Moreover, you are a man and I am a woman, we can't shake hands, that's not in line with etiquette...... Well, it's okay to say it's easy to talk to. ”
Songtsen Gampo smiled, revealing his pearly white teeth, dazzling.
"You said you wanted to thank me that day, so long, how do you plan to thank me?"
Li Yuntong gave a salute, "Gold, silver and jewelry, high-ranking officials are at your disposal." ”
"Oh, you're Han, why did you let me be an official in Tibet?" Songtsen Gampo asked playfully.
"My husband is quite powerful in Tibet, and he will be able to meet your request." Li Yuntong raised his head and said solemnly.
"You're married? Why is it still a girl's dress? Songtsen Gampo pulled Li Yuntong's braids and said with a smile: "If I want to be the Zampu of Tibet, you can do it?" ”
If it weren't for the fact that he was his own life-saving benefactor, Li Yuntong would have wanted to slap him.
Even so, she still avoided it, her face sank, "Qi Gongzi's move is inappropriate, we Han people pay attention to whether men and women give or receive kisses, and it is really rude for you to pull people's hair like this." ”
Songtsen Gampo immediately faced each other, "I'm sorry, we Tubo people can't help but get close to the girl we like when we see it, and we hope that the girl will forgive me." But I really want to be the Zampu of Tibet, I don't know if your powerful husband can do it, girl? ”
"This can't." Li Yuntong said embarrassedly, "Can you change to another request?" ”
"Then give me your own compensation."
Li Yuntong was stunned, and before he could come back to his senses, Songtsen Gampo had already jumped on the horse led by his entourage, and as soon as his long arm stretched out, he scooped her onto the horse.
Bu Chi, Qiu Feng and Dong Qing didn't care when they saw Li Yuntong talking and laughing with him at first, and they rushed over at this time, but they were blocked by a few Tibetan men, and they started to fight.
"I didn't expect you to be this kind of person!" Li Yuntong was so angry that she vomited blood, sat on the horse and tried her best to resist, but she was not Songtsen Gampo's opponent at all, and she was suppressed by him with three punches and two kicks.
