Song Tsangpu also said: "Her Majesty the princess voluntarily married and cultivated the good of the two countries, which shows that the princess is benevolent and righteous, and she is fortunate to shoulder the heavy responsibility of welcoming Her Majesty the princess to the country, and being treated by the princess with courtesy, which is really a contemptible luck and a blessing for Tibet." ”

Li Yuanhao saw that his words were high-sounding, and he was very fond of listening to it, and said happily: "National teacher, please sit down for a while, and after the crowning ceremony for the princess is over, I will have a banquet and carnival, I will definitely have a good drink with the national teacher!"

Song Zanpu said: "Emperor Xie is hospitable, and he will be accompanied by him." Then he went down to the palace with the palace attendants, and sat down at the banquet table beside him.

Hu Zhenbang saw that the crown ceremony was going to be held first, and he thought of Ning Lingge's previous assassination plan, which was to ask Ayimu to assassinate Li Yuanhao when he was crowned with both hands raised and the door was fully open. I couldn't help but be secretly shocked in my heart, lest Ayimu wouldn't be able to hold back at that time and take the first shot, which would be extremely dangerous.

At the moment, he couldn't help but glance at Ayimu, Ayimu touched Hu Zhenbang, saw that his eyes were different, and his mouth seemed to be saying something repeatedly, and he stared at it a few times, and suddenly woke up, it turned out that the eldest brother said: "Don't do it."

She said in her heart: "I think my eldest brother must have learned something, and he wants me not to act rashly." He winked at Hu Zhenbang at the moment and signaled that he understood.

Hu Zhenbang whispered to Brother Ning Ling again: "After a while, I will do it after the banquet is halfway through, as long as Li Yuanhao is drunk, the chance of success will be greater." ”

Brother Ning Ling was quite surprised, and said in his heart: "This Mu Hu is very reasonable, but how does he know what I think in my heart?" At this moment, the emperor was at present, and it was inconvenient for him to turn around and talk to Hu Mu and the others who were pretending to be guards, so he whispered to Yeli Langlie next to him: "At the banquet in a while, you will act when you see the opportunity." ”

Ye Li Langlie bowed his head slightly to show understanding.

Suddenly, I heard the silk and bamboo orchestras inside and outside the hall playing in unison, and the court master of ceremonies shouted loudly in the music: "The auspicious time has come, please give the princess a crown." ”

Li Yuanhao stood up when he heard this, and everyone also stood up, and the inner attendant said: "Please stand in front of the steps of Her Majesty the princess and wait for the crown from the saint." ”

Ayimu walked to the bottom of the steps of the Danxi Palace, facing Li Yuanhao and the Wuyi clan. The palace attendant on the side held a gift box with vermilion lacquer bronzing patterns, opened it, and presented it to Li Yuanhao.

In that box is a gold double phoenix and blue pearl crown, shining, rich and luxurious. Li Yuanhao stretched out his hands and raised them, and the palace attendant helped Ayimu to take a step forward.

The new queen did not move and read the conferral article on the side: "Auspicious moon Lingchen, Nagal crown, respectful and prestigious, Shushen Erde." Eyebrows live for 10,000 years, celebrated by the sky, and blessed forever. ”

Li Yuanhao has long coveted Ayimu's beauty, but at this moment, for some reason, his eyes have never dared to look directly at Ayimu. I felt that Ayimu's gaze was like shooting out two strong electricity, making me tremble.

However, his current heart is all tied to the twelve volumes of "General Essentials of the Martial Arts" sent by Tubo, so the "Princess of Western Xia" did not take to heart the resistance he showed. Immediately picked up the princess crown and gently put it on Ayimu's head.

Ayimu looked at Li Yuanhao, the emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom, who was standing close in front of her, and her eyes almost wanted to erupt with fire, and she couldn't wait to immediately pull out the "Tifengxi" dagger from her arms and stab it into his chest, but she thought of Hu Zhenbang's eagerly winked at her before, and hinted at her mouth, thinking that there must be an extraordinary situation, so she reminded herself not to act rashly.

The princess's crowning ceremony has been completed, the ministers and officials in the palace congratulated in unison, Li Yuanhao was triumphant, announced the end of the wedding ceremony, and invited the envoys to enjoy the feast with the emperor's relatives and relatives, civil and military officials.

In the palace, the emperor and the new queen and the princess sat in the first place, facing everyone, the banquet was divided into two sides, the emperor's relatives and relatives, the ministers and hundreds of officials sat in order, and the Tibetan envoy and his party were also seated in the ministers and relatives, and the banquet was full of more than 200 seats.

As soon as noon passed, it was the time of the banquet, and the maids in the palace kept shuttling and flowing, serving all kinds of delicacies and wines. The first batch of maids withdrew, and the latter batch of maids rushed in, constantly serving food and pouring wine for everyone, and the palace suddenly overflowed with the smell of wine and meat.

Li Yuanhao raised his glass and said with a smile: "Today is the day when the Tubo guests come to the court, the day of the marriage of the princess of my Great Xia Kingdom and the prince of Tubo, I am very happy, please invite the guests from afar, the civil and military officials of our dynasty, all of them do not have to be formal, and drink freely." ”

Everyone raised their glasses and said in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" With Li Yuanhao's words, everyone was happy, and the hall was staggered, and laughter continued.

After thirty years of drinking, Li Yuanhao turned around and whispered a word to the inner attendant, and soon saw twelve palace maids in green feathers and red shirts running out from behind the bead curtain on the side of the palace, with long red silk wrapped around their arms, and gathered in the center of the front of the hall in a cheerful music, performing a red silk dance.

I saw all the dancers lightly raise their wrists, throw out the long red streamers in their hands, their bodies rotate lightly, their clothes fluttering, and their skirts flying, just like the Chang'e fairy who flew to the Moon Palace, and even better, the movements of these twelve dancers are exactly the same, whether they jump, spin, or wave the red silk streamers, the time is exactly the same. It's really like a circle of red halos dancing, and dragons are churning, which is really wonderful.

This section of the red silk dance made everyone applaud in unison, especially those who came to Tibet, and they were even more dumbfounded, and they didn't bother their mouths for a long time, until the end of the song, they came back to their senses and cheered loudly.

Li Yuanhao was triumphant and said with a smile: "National teacher, my dancing queen of the Great Xia Kingdom, how is her art?"

Song Zanpu praised with his hand: "I have long heard that the people of Daxia can sing and dance, and the court is especially famous for the 'Jiaolong Red Silk Dance', but I have only heard of it, and I have not been paid to see it, and I am fortunate to see it today, and it is really amazing for the skills of heaven and man." ”

Li Yuanhao laughed and said: "The national teacher has a good reputation, I don't know if there are any incompetent people in the Tubo envoy's marriage team this time, and they can give their skills here?"

Song Zanpu heard Li Yuanhao say this, and said secretly: "Li Yuanhao is arrogant and cruel, no one in his eyes, he has obtained this book "Wujing General Essentials" this time, he will definitely study it deeply, and the expansion of the empire is imperative in the future, although he is married to our country, I am afraid that he will not get along peacefully for a few years, he will inevitably try to expand his territory, it is difficult to ensure that he will not invade Tibet, and he must not be underestimated at this moment." ”

Immediately responded: "Back to the emperor, this time I came to your country to marry, and I was accompanied by a first-class martial artist of the Tubo country, all of whom were skilled in martial arts, if the emperor is not to blame, I will pick a few out at random to give the emperor a skill." ”

Li Yuanhao laughed and said: "Okay, good, I'm not weird, please ask the national teacher to choose a few Tubo warriors to perform, today is not formal, just enjoy the entertainment." ”

Song Zanpu smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty is not to blame, then it is rude." After saying that, he clapped his hands, and saw that in the banquet of the Tubo greeting procession below, four big men stood up, tall, short, fat and thin, some were tall and burly, some were stout and short, some were as thin as bamboo, and some were fat and strong. When the ministers of Western Xia saw it, they were secretly amused in their hearts.

Song Zanpu introduced to Li Yuanhao: "Your Majesty, these four people are the four masters of Yipintang in my Tubo Martial Arts Hall, they are Lu Dada, the Poisonous Sand God Palm, the Seven Steps Soul Chaser Chi Degon, the King Kong Fuhu Tashi, and the Stone Splitting Heaven-shattering Gu Yuanhun. ”

Li Yuanhao saw that these four people were tall, short, fat and thin, and their appearance was not good, so he felt funny and curious in his heart, so he said: "What skills do they have, although the national teacher let them practice and take a look, it will be fun." ”

Song Tsampu said: "Yes, I will obey the emperor's will." He immediately said something to the four of them in the Tibetan language, to the effect that they would come forward one by one to demonstrate their stunts.

The first to come on the field was the tall and burly Lu Dada, I saw him face Li Yuanhao and everyone in the hall raised his palms and turned around, everyone was taken aback, it turned out that his palms were different from ordinary people, showing a black color!

Hu Zhenbang saw it, and said secretly in his heart: "In order to refine the poisonous sand palm, this person actually soaked his palms with poisonous herbal juice for a long time, and sucked the skin of his palms with internal force. This kung fu is really insidious. ”

Song Zanpu said: "Your Majesty, his kung fu of this poisonous sand palm is too powerful, and he can't see the effect just out of thin air, if he finds someone to play, I'm afraid it will inevitably hurt the other party by mistake, in case his life is not guaranteed, wouldn't it be a big disappointment, I think, and ask the saint to let them find a livestock to come and try the palm?"

Li Yuanhao said in his heart: "His palms are just like some ink, how can he be so powerful, and let people lead a horse, how can this horse be so easy for him to be killed with one palm, and then it will be up to him to step down." ”

Thinking like this in his heart, he was secretly proud, and said: "Come on, immediately go to the outside of the hall to lead a horse, and everyone will take a good look at the stunts of this Tibetan warrior." The inner chamberlain answered, and after a short time, the guards outside the hall led a tall white horse into the hall.

Li Yuanhao said: "National teacher, you let this Lu Dada try his poisonous sand palm." ”

Songtsampu replied, "Yes." And he spoke to Lu Dada in the Tibetan language. Nalu Dada arched his hands, saluted back, approached the white horse, stood a few feet away from the white horse, palms to the sky, slowly raised above his head, snorted and breathed, and his palms slowly returned to his chest, making a joint shape, his eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't know what exercises were being moved. ”

Everyone was wondering, suddenly saw this Lu Dada push with both palms, hit a palm at the horse's head in the air, only to see a shallow black mist drifting from his palm to the horse's head, the white horse suddenly neighed, knelt on the ground, the horse's head was crooked, fell to the ground, and everyone let out a "poof" exclamation. The stableman who led the horse probed his nostrils with his hand, but when he saw that the horse had long since lost his breath, he was killed on the spot.

Li Yuanhao was also amazed when he saw that Lu Dada killed the horse with a poisonous sand palm in the air, and praised: "It's really a miraculous skill, come and reward Lu Dada with a hundred taels of gold." Naruda Da thanked him and sat down.

The second seven-step soul chaser Chi Degon couldn't wait to get on the field, and everyone saw that this person was not tall and looked obscene, and they all said what kind of ability this person could have. Unexpectedly, he knelt down to Li Yuanhao in front of the palace, and stood up as soon as he rolled on the ground, and suddenly the figure flickered, and he disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, and when he was looking around, he suddenly saw him flash out from behind the west palace pillar, and he didn't see it clearly, his eyes were flowering, and he saw that he had appeared next to the east palace pillar, and when everyone's eyes turned to him, he suddenly disappeared again, and he was looking for him everywhere, and he had knelt down in front of the emperor again.

Hu Zhenbang said in his heart: "I can't imagine that among the people of Tubo, there are also people who are so good at light skills, but this 'seven-step soul chasing' is far inferior to the Central Plains light gong's 'eight-step toad'. ”

Li Yuanhao laughed when he saw it, and said straightly: "Interesting and interesting, the seven-step soul chasing is really worthy of its reputation, I look at ten steps, and I can't catch up with him in a hundred steps. ”
