Two months have passed in a blink of an eye, and the Spring Festival has officially arrived.

Zhengdan Dynasty Meeting, the official Zhao Zhen Gong Crown rose to sit in the Daqing Palace, the two sides of the palace lined up the law to drive the guard of honor, and all the officials were crowned with court clothes. The state marched into the officials, and the envoys of all the countries came to congratulate.

The Khitan ambassador wears a golden crown, the tip of the back eaves is long, like a big lotus leaf, wearing a purple narrow robe, and wearing a golden crown. Zhao Zhen saw that it was Xiao Shinan, the son of the king of Nanping. The deputy envoy Zhan wrapped in a gold belt, such as Hanfu, was the envoy Han Zhongxun last year.

This Xiao Shinan helped Zhao Zhen seize power, and he successfully returned to Nanjing City and regained military power. Although the Empress Dowager Fatian held power, she did not dare to easily shake the power of the capital of Nanjing, she left the Empress Dowager Qi as a hostage, and did not dare to act rashly, and the two sides were deadlocked to maintain the status quo.

Xiao Shinan is now sending an envoy to the Great Song Dynasty again, and the situation is completely different from the last embarrassment.

The official Zhao Zhen smiled and said to Xiao Shinan: "Xiao Shizi went to the Great Song Dynasty this year, and he is even more majestic!" ”

Xiao Shinan smiled and saluted, "The Great Song Dynasty official family is also in high spirits!" ”

The envoy of the Xia Kingdom wore a golden crown, a short sample uniform, a crimson narrow robe, a golden robe, a hanging back, and a forked hand to worship, claiming to be a Yeli person. Zhao Zhen asked Yeli Honglong about the current situation, and the Xia envoy replied one by one.

It turned out that Yeli Honglong was also very proud after returning to China, and his two sons Yeli Yuqi and Yeli Wangrong were both named generals, and his younger brother Yeli Renrong was knowledgeable and founded the Western Xia script and legislation, which was quite reused by Li Yuanhao.

Li Yuanhao married Princess Xingping of Liao State, died due to childbirth, and remarried the daughter of Yeli Red Dragon as the queen. In this way, almost no one could shake the position of the Yeli clan in Western Xia.

Yeli Honglong advocated that Western Xia and the Liao State and the Great Song Dynasty maintain the status quo, although Li Yuanhao was ambitious, but he also knew that his national strength was not strong, and he still needed to maintain his obscurity, so these times gave Zhao Zhen a chance to temporarily make peace and recuperate.

Others, such as Goryeo, Uighur, Chenla, and Dali, came to pay tribute and met in turn, and Zhao Zhen replied in turn, without going into details.

In the evening, the official family invited envoys from Daliao, Western Xia, Goryeo and other countries to a banquet in the Jiying Palace, and ordered hundreds of officials and Ye Pei, the lord of Le'an County, to accompany them.

At the banquet, Xiao Shinan brought ten dancing girls to dance the lost neon dress and feather dance, which made Zhao Zhen greatly admired.

The song of this neon dress and feather dance was originally composed by Tang Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty who climbed the Sanxiang Post and saw the daughter mountain, that is, the legendary fairy mountain.

The dance was choreographed by Tang Xuanzong's favorite Yang Guifei. When Yang Yuhuan met for the first time in Huaqing Pond, Xuanzong played "The Song of Neon Clothes and Feathers".

At that time, the minister Zhang Hu's "Huaqing Palace" cloud: "The sky is sinking and the night is not young, and the blue clouds and fairy songs are dancing." A jade flute went into the air, and the moon was full and the Lishan Palace was leaking. ”

"Neon Clothes and Feather Song" was popular for a while during the Tianbao period, but unfortunately after the Anshi Rebellion, this piece and dance were also lost.

The accompaniment of "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes" uses chime, zheng, flute, flute, gonghou, sheng and other golden stones, silk and bamboo, and the music has the feeling of "jumping beads and shaking jade".

Several dancing girls in the Liao Kingdom are not as weak and weak as the women of the Southern Dynasty, and they dance this dance with a distinct rhythm and sonorous power, which makes people intoxicated.

Zhao Zhen is extremely self-disciplined on weekdays, rarely singing and composing, but today he watched such a wonderful music and dance, and he was fascinated.

When the song and dance were over, Zhao Zhen asked Xiao Shinan with a smile: "How did Xiao Shizi find this long-lost "Neon Clothes and Feather Song"? ”

"What do the officials think of this dance music?"

"It's wonderful!"

"The foreign minister knows that the official family will definitely like it." Xiao Shinan said with a smile: "It is also a coincidence to get this dance music, I have a fairy Taoist in Khitan, and when I traveled all over the world, I stumbled upon the eighteenth section of the score of the Shang tune Nishang song in the book of Zhu Rongfeng's music work, and he wrote a new word for it, and dedicated it to the minister together with the score. The minister specially selected the famous Khitan court dancer to rehearse this dance, and today he came to present it to the official family of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Xiao Shizi has a heart!" Zhao Zhen nodded in admiration.

Zhao Zhen was amazed when she saw the neon dress and feather dance brought by Xiao Shinan, Ye Pei's unconvinced heart was aroused, she also liked the cheerful rhythm of this dance, and there was no enchanting atmosphere, so she secretly paid attention.

When he returned to Qifeng Pavilion, Ye Pei asked Lin Bihan to inquire about who danced the best in the palace.

Lin Bihan replied: "Several small servants in the palace said that Qiu Ruxue danced the best among the dancing girls!" She danced as lightly as a butterfly, and she was indescribably graceful! ”

Ye Pei ordered Lin Bihan to invite. Qiu Ruxue saw that it was the lord of Le'an County who invited her, how dare she slack off, and immediately got up and followed Lin Bihan to Qifeng Pavilion.

Ye Pei was very polite: "Sister Ruxue, I have something to ask for, I don't know if you can agree?" ”

Qiu Ruxue said: "The county lord begged each other, and dared to disobey orders. ”

Ye Pei said with a smile: "Good sister, this neon dress and feather dance has been lost for many years, I didn't expect it to be rearranged and danced by the Khitan people according to the lost old Pu, I don't know that day my sister can watch the dance brought by the envoy of the Liao State?" ”

"I've seen it, the legend is true, this song is really wonderful, like heaven!"

Ye Pei said: "I want to ask my sister to teach me to dance this dance of neon clothes and feathers, I don't know if I can do it?" ”

Qiu Ruxue asked: "Does the county lord mean that I should choreograph and choreograph the dance posture brought by the Khitan and teach the county lord to dance?" ”

"That's exactly what it means!"

Ruxue Yanran: "If it's something else, I don't know how much I can help the county lord, but if it's something about dancing, I'm sure I'll do it well." As long as the county lord is willing to learn, he will make the officials happy to see it. ”

Ye Pei said shyly: "Who said I was going to jump to show him." ”

Qiu Ruxue smiled.

Since then, the two of them have been sticking together every day to study dance, and according to the posture of the Khitan dancing queen, they have compiled a neon dress and feather dance in a few days.

Qiu Ruxue taught her, Ye Pei worked hard and studious, and in less than three months, Ye Pei danced almost as much as snow.

Martial arts and dance have similarities, the strength and softness of Ye Pei's limbs are enough, but Qiu Ruxue's guidance is needed in terms of movements and demeanor. Ye Pei has always been diligent, except for eating and sleeping, he has been practicing all the time, so he has practiced a dance of neon clothes and feathers in a short period of time.

After the Spring Festival, it is the beginning of spring, and the folk have the custom of whipping the spring cattle. This year, there was also a whip spring activity in the palace, and the official Zhao Zhen specially invited Ye Pei to see it, but Ye Pei refused.

Zhao Zhen was quite surprised, and said to himself: "Doesn't Pei'er like this kind of excitement the most? Why didn't you even look at it? ”

Chen Zhongyi snickered, and Zhao Zhen said angrily: "What are you laughing at? ”

Chen Zhongyi pretended to be mysterious and said: "The lord of Le'an is preparing a big gift, and the official family is waiting for the good news!" ”

"What's mysterious?"

Chen Zhongyi said: "I can't tell you yet! ”

"Are you her minion or mine? Come with her to fool me? Zhao Zhen pretended to be disgusted.

Chen Zhongyi bowed his head in fright and said, "The villain doesn't dare." ”

"When the time comes, let's see if this gift is enough, if I don't like it, I'll take you and her together."

Chen Zhongyi stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to say anything more.

------

April 14 is the Qianyuan Festival, that is, the birthday of the official Zhao Zhen. There was going to be a celebration in the palace, Ye Pei asked Lin Bihan to inform Chen Zhongyi in advance, and after the palace banquet was over, he asked the official family to come to Qifeng Pavilion.

Who knew that there were some changes on this day, and Zhao Zhen had been dealing with business in the Qinzheng Hall until late and did not come to Qifeng Pavilion.

Lin Bihan saw Chen Zhongyi serving beside Zhao Zhen through the crack in the door, so he asked the golden treasure outside the door: "Is there only one official in the palace?" ”

Huang Jinbao was standing sleepily outside the door of the main hall at this time, he looked at Lin Bihan with a blank expression, and nodded carelessly.

Lin Bihan came back and told Ye Pei that there was only one official family in the Qinzheng Palace, so Ye Pei decided to come to the Qinzheng Palace to see Zhao Zhen by himself.

Ye Pei changed into a dance dress, wore a red leno skirt, fluttering water sleeves, a high comb on his head, a golden step, and a red tourmaline forehead on his forehead, which was quite exotic. There are four musicians behind him, one plays the kite, one whistles, one drums, and one plays the sheng.

Gently pushing open the door of the Qinzheng Palace, the musician opened with a long flute sound, Ye Peiluo covered his face with his sleeves and entered the hall like a butterfly. After that, the music was sonorous, the complex sound was urgent, and Ye Pei followed the sound of the music, and his sleeves were light, melodious or agitated, graceful and dancing.

No wonder Bai Juyi in the Tang Dynasty praised the exquisiteness of this dance: "There are thousands of songs and dances, and I love the neon dress dance the most." ”

After a dance, Ye Pei smiled at Zhao Zhenyan, and ran to him lightly and knelt down: "Le'an congratulates the official family to be as happy as the East China Sea, and longevity is better than Nanshan." ”

Zhao Zhen was already fascinated, and he didn't answer for a while.

Ye Pei flew to Zhao Zhen's side like a butterfly again, "How does the sixth brother see me dancing?" Are you satisfied with today's birthday gift? ”

Zhao Zhen had already been fascinated by Ye Pei's graceful dancing, and at this moment he looked at his beloved Ye Pei kneeling beside him, and involuntarily reached out to caress Ye Pei's red fluttering face, and said infatuatedly: "Pei'er dances so well!" I love this birthday gift today. ”

At this moment, the first person of His Royal Highness Qinzheng said loudly: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor!" ”

Ye Pei was startled when he heard this, and moved closer to Zhao Zhen. When he looked back, it turned out to be Xiao Shinan, the envoy of the Liao State, and his face suddenly flew with a cloud.

Ye Pei called softly: "Brother Xiao! ”

It turned out that Xiao Shinan specially prepared a birthday gift for Zhao Zhen today to congratulate him on his birthday. Zhao Zhen and Xiao Shinan had similar views on the foreign affairs of the Song and Liao countries, so after the ministers dispersed, Zhao Zhen specially invited Xiao Shinan to the inner hall to continue chatting.

Huang Jinbao was waiting outside the hall, and when Lin Bihan asked him, he was sleepy, but he casually agreed, and he didn't know that there were many things behind.

Xiao Shinan looked at Ye Pei according to the etiquette of the Song Dynasty, took a deep look, and said, "Lord Le'an, your neon clothes and feather dance is so beautiful!" ”

Ye Pei blushed and smiled.

Xiao Shinan said to Zhao Zhen again: "Foreign Minister Xiao Shinan sincerely congratulates the official family of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Zhao Zhen asked: "Xiao Shizi, congratulations, how do you say this?" ”

Xiao Shinan said: "In the past, Emperor Jingzong of our Great Liao Kingdom was assisted by Empress Ruizhi to create a prosperous era of Liao State. ”
