Zhang Qian hurriedly picked up the wine glass, touched a glass with the king, and said: "Benhou was ordered by Emperor Hongwu of my dynasty to travel around the countries of the Western Regions, originally to make friends with other countries. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoYour Majesty is hospitable today, and Ben Hou is also very happy in his heart, let us drink this cup and toast to the friendship between the two countries for generations!"

All the martial arts in Qiuzi raised their glasses, and the embassy also raised their wine glasses, only Wang Yangming had a bitter face, and whispered to Zhang Qian: "Master Hou, the official has made an oath and will never drink alcohol again." ”

Zhang Qian forgot about this festival, and when the king heard Wang Yangming say this, he hurriedly ordered the maid to change the wine glass, brought a glass of water, and said to Wang Yangming: "This young handsome man, you don't know, my country is rich in fine wine, and it's really a pity that you don't drink it." However, the Lord is at your disposal, since you are not good at drinking, replace it with water!"

Wang Yangming saw that the king was kind to people, and he had a good impression of him for no reason, so he hurriedly thanked him, so everyone drank this cup of wine (water) happily. The guests and hosts were seated, and the banquet officially began. The king was very talkative, and talked with Zhang Qian very happily in stiff Chinese, and when he saw that Wang Yangming was sitting closest to Zhang Qian, he thought that this man should be the most powerful person under Zhang Qian, so he asked Zhang Qian: "I don't know who this young man is in the mission? ”

Zhang Qian said to him: "This is the commander of the Eagle Yang Army who came with me, he has tried to protect me many times along the way, his martial arts are strong, his character is first-class, he is the talent of the pillar of my Xia Kingdom, and his name is Wang Yangming." ”

The king's eyes flashed, and he said, "But the white-robed Wang Yangming?"

Wang Yangming didn't want his white-robed reputation to be known even to the king of Qiuzi, and he was worried in his heart, knowing that he had led the Yingyang army to fight with all the countries in the Western Regions, and he didn't know if the king would be angry with him. But I heard the king say: "I have also heard from the Chinese warriors of the Xia Dynasty that there is a young general in the Jiayu Pass in the northwest of the Xia Dynasty, who has the courage of ten thousand people, and has always admired it, but I have never seen it, it turned out to be the little general!"

Wang Yangming didn't feel the slightest displeasure when he heard his words, thinking that this king seemed to have a sincere impression of the Xia Dynasty, he called Gu Xifeng and asked, "Among the sixteen countries alliance led by the black robe that day, is there the Qiuzi Kingdom?"

Gu Xifeng shook his head and said: "We later investigated in many ways and found that most of the sixteen countries of the Western Regions participated in that war, but Khorezm and Qiuzi were the only ones who did not go to this troubled water. ”

Wang Yangming sighed, no wonder this king has no hostility towards him, it turns out that he has not sent troops to attack the Xia Dynasty, he is more relieved in his heart, and he talks with the king, and he is very popular with the king.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was a little drunk, but Wang Yangming never drank alcohol and kept the Lingtai clear. The king approached Zhang Qian's side and said softly, "Marquis Zhang, what do you think of the customs and customs in my country?"

Zhang Qian said in his heart that at this time, of course he wanted to pick up something good, so he complimented: "Your Majesty governs the country well, and I watch everyone in the country live and work in peace and contentment, as if it is a paradise." ”

The king was praised by Zhang Qian, haha, and said happily: "Marquis Zhang, if you are allowed to live happily in our country for a lifetime, are you willing?"

Zhang Qian saw that his words changed suddenly, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so he responded carefully: "Naturally, I am willing, but I am carrying the edict of the emperor of my dynasty, and I dare not stay for a long time." ”

The king didn't care about the meaning of his words, and continued to say step by step: "Lord Hou, this king doesn't want you to disobey the holy grace of the **** emperor. It's just that this king really loves your talents, thinking that if you are willing to stay by this king's side, this king is willing to crown you with an official position of super first-class products, and even take charge of the country with you, I don't know if you are interested?"

At this point, it is already a naked digging corner. Zhang Qian said solemnly: "Your Majesty, it's not that Benhou doesn't know what to do, it's just that Benhou was entrusted by the emperor of our dynasty to take this delegation through sixteen countries and return to Middle-earth to report to our emperor." His Majesty is wrong to love, and Ben Hou can only thank him for not being sensitive. He turned to Wang Yangming and said, "Captain Wang, when we left Jiayuguan in the northwest, what did General Boyan say?"

Wang Yangming hurriedly responded: "The general said at that time that he would rather love a piece of soil in his hometown than ten thousand taels of gold in another country. ”

Seeing that Zhang Qian's attitude was very resolute, the king immediately smiled and said: "Although this king loves talents, he is not a brazen person. Zhang Houye, despite drinking, never mention this again. So he ordered the maid to take the golden pot and personally poured a glass of wine for Zhang Qian, and ordered the maid to take the jade pot and personally poured a glass of water for Wang Yangming.

Seeing that the wine was almost drunk, the king smiled and said to Zhang Qian and Wang Yangming: "In this kingdom, fine wine is a must, and there is another must, I don't know if you can guess it?"

Zhang Qian and Wang Yangming both shook their heads and said that they didn't know, and the king said: "This other one is a beauty." My country is rich in beauties, and most of the country is the national color and fragrance, and today is just for you to taste and taste. As he spoke, he clapped his hands lightly, and saw sixteen women rushing into the field, one of them was slender, all of them had a fairy-like appearance, and the woman in Qiuzi was plump and had a magical attraction to men. Wang Yangming is a young man with strong blood, and he can't take his eyes off it for a long time, although Zhang Qian is already an old man in his fifties and sixties, he is also dizzy.

The king smiled and said, "These sixteen women were personally selected by the king, collected in the palace, and ordered the musicians to train them, so that they could practice a set of dance steps, called the Sixteen Heavenly Demon Dance, which is my favorite dance on weekdays." As he spoke, the sixteen girls had already begun to dance, and the audience was suddenly warbler and swallow, so beautiful.

The people of Qiuzi are already good at dancing, and these sixteen women are the best among them. What they dance is a famous local dance, called Feitian, also called Hu Xuan Dance, Hu Xuan Dance beat is bright and galloping and cheerful, many spins and pedaling, so it is called Hu Xuan. The accompaniment music is mainly percussion, which corresponds to its fast rhythm and vigorous style, which adds to the beauty. The Sixteen Heavenly Demon Dance is a transformation on the basis of the Hu Xuan Dance, which is more moving than the Hu Xuan Dance, otherwise it would not have been taken out by this king's cherished place to show off.

These sixteen women danced the Hu Xuan dance, and the end was: Dancing like a frightening Hong, graceful like a swimming dragon, Rong Yao Qiu Ju, Hua Mao Chun Song. The hair is like the moon covered by light clouds, and the fluttering is like the snow of the flowing wind. Looking at it from afar, it is as bright as the sun rising in the morning glow. Forced to observe it, the scorching waves appeared. The fiber is heartfelt, and the fit is shortened. If the shoulders are cut, the waist is as plain. Stretch the neck of the show, the quality of the dew, the fragrance is not added, the lead Huafu Yu. The clouds are elegant, the eyebrows are trimmed, the lips are long, and the teeth are fresh. Bright eyes are good, Jing assists in inheriting power, beautiful posture, and quiet and leisurely. Tenderness and flattery in words. The strange clothes are magnificent, and the bone image should be drawn. The brilliance of the cloth, the brilliance of the Yaobi. Wear gold and emerald jewelry, embellished with pearls to show off your body. Practice the literature of the long journey, and drag the light of the fog. The fragrance of the faint orchid is stumbling in the corner of the mountain.

After a dance, everyone was stupid, and after a long time, thunderous applause rang out. The king ordered the women to stand aside with their heads bowed, and said to Zhang Qian and Wang Yangming: "My sixteen-day demon dance, can you still satisfy everyone?"
