Lights are on
Li Shimin, who looked like nothing had happened on the outside, came to pick Yuan Yueze up to the Tai Chi Palace for a banquet.
The group walked from Anli Gate to Heyu Hall, Ganlu Hall, Liangyi Hall, and Taiji Hall, and walked towards Taiji Palace in a mighty way.
Li Shimin kept saying this and that, but Yuan Yueze's thoughts flew back an hour ago
Under his coercion of torture such as "human stick" and "human jerky" and "human jerky" and Zhu Yuyan's cooperation, the man finally collapsed and told everything he could do.
He was just a chess piece on the periphery of the Daming Zun Sect who was responsible for sending intelligence. He was rumored to be a peerless master. When he practiced until he couldn't turn back, he realized that the magical skill had made him immortal. Although he was brainwashed by the Daming Zun Sect's teachings, fortunately this person had a weakness, that is, his fear of death. His companions who were trained together could not stand such days and were self-defeating. Only this person could not attack himself. This just gave Yuan Yueze a chance to open his psychological defense line.
According to what he said, he was sending information for a "Mr. Feng" who had only met once. Yuan Yueze knew from his description that "Mr. Feng" was Xi Feng. Yun Shuai, who had a cooperative relationship with Anlong, also mentioned it, saying that Mr. Feng and Anlong also had a cooperative relationship. Yuan Yueze remembered that he was in Chengdu that day, and he did hear Anlong say this to You Niaojue.
Zhu Yuyan went to see Yin Zuwen two days ago. But Yin Zuwen was disobedient to Zhu Yuyan, but she just perfunctorily treated her. Zhu Yuyan then followed the man to more than 100 miles outside the suburbs, and then waited until he met with four other masters. The four were caught by Zhu Yuyan and were unwilling to be humiliated, so they all died on the spot. The man said that he did not know the identities of the four people, but only knew that they were sent from the palace.
This gave Yuan Yueze and Zhu Yuyan a clue: Whose subordinates will these four people be?
Prince's Party? Or Li Yuan? Or Li Shimin?
The real answer is not possible, because it is possible
The princeling Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and Xi Feng, the collusion between people in the Demon Sect has only been known by Yuan Yueze, and the four masters killed by Zhu Yuyan are also likely to be the reason why Li Yuan is alienated from Wei Lianxiang.
What's more, Li Shimin was at a disadvantage in the civil war of fighting for power and profit. If he was forced to work hard, he might cooperate with the people in the Demon Sect. Xi Feng was good at hiding his identity, so it was not surprising that he had deceived Li Shimin.
The message conveyed by the great man only has eight words: one plan is completed, two plans are temporarily suspended
If Yuan Yueze Ding didn't know the true meaning of these words two days in advance, he now speculated that the "one plan" is probably the plan of "poison" and "dynamite". In fact, their plan has failed today, so what are the "two plans"?
Another thing caught the attention of Yuan Yueze and Zhu Yuyan. When Yuan Yueze was drooling and talking about the trembling man about the "Man Stick" criminal law, the couple clearly noticed a faint and peaceful spirit, which came from at least a hundred feet away and passed in a blink of an eye.
The inconvenient move Yun Shuai and Lian Rou arranged in a hidden cave in the wild, and temporarily imprisoned the half-dead man. Yuan Yueze and Zhu Yuyan rushed into the city quickly
First, he would call two of his beautiful wives and use his power to bring back the hope of Yunshuai’s father and daughter.
Entering the palace, returning to the Xiyuan, and briefly tell the story of the girls who are here. Yun Yuzhen and Wei Zhenzhen go to detoxify Yunshuai’s father and daughter. Since it will be restored for at least a period of time after releasing the Qi power, the lighter the responsibility of the girls, the more suitable it is to detoxify.
Song Yuzhi took the lead and said: It's getting late, it's time to go to the banquet. Sister Junmao just secretly saw Li Yuan wearing casual clothes to meet her second brother. Will it be related to the evening banquet? Or he directly invited her second brother to attend the dinner.
Yuan Yueze said in surprise: What? Will the second brother be too reckless?
Shan Meixian smiled and said: Master Dao would never have received the letter from the eyeliner of "Yu Xinglong" in the morning. It said that he entered the city last night and lived in an inn near the imperial city. Li Yuan's eyeliner was spread all over the city, and Master Dao came in swaggeringly, so he was discovered by Li Yuan at the first time and went to see him later. Master Dao simply said that in order to avoid the cheapness of Xi Feng, those who manipulated the princelings behind him, he pleaded for love for Li Shimin. I think Li Yuan did not punish Li Shimin severely today, which is definitely related to Master Dao's words.
Yuan Yueze suddenly realized: He has similar personalities to Song Shidao, but there are different subtleties. He is a person with a strong principle and perverted nature, and is extremely "absolute" towards others and oneself; Song Shidao is more like a "normal person", and the perspective and way of thinking about things will naturally be different. Yuan Yueze can be heartless to Li Shimin, but Song Shidao cannot. This time he is equivalent to helping Li Shimin a lot of fun.
It can be seen from this that Li Yuan trusted Yueshan's "big brother" many years ago
Shang Xiuxun, who had just finished combed a ponytail, squeezed into Yuan Yueze's arms and said softly: Brother Song has an extremely important news. He said that in order to help him avenge, Li Yuan planned to send a few mysterious masters who have followed Li Yuan for decades and practiced foreign magic skills to help Brother Song. However, in order not to show his flaws, Brother Song wanted to know the origin of the mysterious master, but he had to refuse his letter and said that it was inconvenient to contact us and act according to the opportunity.
Yuan Yueze thought to himself how could he easily accept Li Yuan's proposal with Yueshan's arrogant personality? Therefore, Song Shidao could only refuse.
So he sipped her tender face and said: What did you find today?
Shan Meixian told Yuan Yueze that Bai Qing'er's "scheming" and Xiao He'er was left in "Shanglinyuan" by the stubborn Ji Qianqiang. Except for being followed, the other women did not encounter any other things to tell Yuan Yueze.
Bai Qing'er only felt a flash in front of her eyes. Yuan Yueze's big mouth pecked at her pretty face, then said with appreciation: Qing'er's hand is really amazing
Bai Qing'er was flirtatious and angry in public and was flushed and pink. He kicked out and almost hit Yuan Yueze's life. Yuan Yueze, who jumped ten feet behind, covered his crotch with an exaggerated look and shouted: You dare to ruin me, my wife may hate you to death
The other girls had long been used to his acting like he was playing tricks, but Bai Qing'er was still not very adaptable and said to Shan Meixian powerlessly: Do you care about him?
Shan Meixian glanced at Yuan Yueze and said: Stop making trouble. Tonight's banquet will be made by Xiuxun, Zhizhi, Feng'er and Qing'er will accompany their husbands to attend.
Except for Bai Qing'er, these four girls are enough to attend such important occasions in terms of identity. Although Bai Qing'er is unknown, she is a good plan by Shan Meixian. It can be used to show Yuan Yueze's importance to her. Yin Zuwen, who is confused, will definitely attend.
Yuan Yueze said: Don’t you and Guan Er participate? In terms of experience, it’s better for you to deal with that kind of occasion.
Xiao Feng shook his head and said: It is not convenient for me to attend. I met my younger brother today. He is pedantic and rigid, thinking that I have lost the face of the Xiao family, and we are very furious. In order to avoid Li Yuan, who has never looked at her for the past few days, she decided not to attend. Zhizhi and Qing'er are enough to deal with that kind of occasion for my husband.
Yuan Yueze sighed: Xiao Yu seems to be following Li Tang. Li Yuan dared to make a fool of himself, which made me angry. Kill him in public tonight!
Shan Meixian smiled and said: Don’t do anything nonsense. Wouldn’t you regret it if you ruin a big thing with impulse?
Dugu Feng said: That’s right, this way, it’s obvious how charming Meixian Sister is!
Shan Meixian tapped her little head and said: Let’s discuss the possible situations and solutions at the banquet first!
Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan! Arrived!
Li Shimin's voice awakens Yuan Yueze from his meditation
Coughed awkwardly, Yuan Yueze looked over
In front of you is a wide square with bell towers and drum towers on both sides. The magnificent Tai Chi Hall is located in front of you. It is located directly north of the square with a vast atmosphere.
In the square covered with gray brick floors, a large stone slab is used to pave a road in front of the hall as an imperial road, and go straight to the hall gate
Taiji Hall is the most magnificent building in the palace, with twelve rooms open and fifteen rooms deep.
The most amazing thing is that the roof of the hall is single-eaves and four-slope style, and the brackets are full of four layers. The structure is simple and complex, which is actually a combination of beauty and mechanics.
The vast palace has six round tables at the north end. Those who can sit in these six seats are of course the royal family.
Arrange seats on both sides of the east and west, everything is in order
At this time, the hall was filled with more than a hundred guests, mainly officials of the Tang Dynasty and family, as well as local merchants, envoys from other places and Hu merchants.
Whether it is the palace maids and officials, they are dressed up in colorful clothes, dressed in silk, dressed in beautiful clothes, shining with pearls and jade, dressed in fragrant powder, and dressed in colorful scenery, adding infinite gentleness to the night banquet
Although the hall is full of people, it is a palace banquet. Everyone is solemn and self-controlled, and dare not make noise. They just whisper and the atmosphere is restrained and serious.
After Yuan Yueze and his group stepped into the hall half a step, the eyes of the entire hall gathered on the main guest's family tonight. Li Shimin stood by instructively
All the men's eyes were focused on Shang Xiuxun on Yuan Yueze's right side, and all the women's eyes were focused on Yuan Yueze's eyes.
As soon as Shang Xiuxun stepped into the hall, all the people and things in the hall became dull. Her plain face without makeup, her elegant and elegant temperament was only a simple white palace gauze body, tied behind her head with an ornamental bow, which was completely different from the ponytail of the complex palace bun in this era, which not only surpassed the definition of "perfection", but also made people have an individual who existed independently of the world. Looking at her for a long time would desecrate this holy goddess.
Whether married or unmarried women in the hall are of course jealousy after being lost, but their eyes are attracted by the handsome Xuanwu and the unrestrained Yuan Yueze. Even many young girls who are still waiting to be named can no longer treat him.
Yuan Yueze and the four girls both had goose bumps. He never liked to be high-profile, but he was not used to the feeling of being watched by monkeys.
Li Shimin coughed heavily, woke up the dazed people, and led the five people to the palace at the six round tables at the north end. It is not easy to sit in the six seats. According to the scale, they are all under Li Yuan's third son. Prince Li Jiancheng has the most seats, followed by Li Shimin and Li Yuanji has the least seats. At this time, the people who have arrived have arranged seats on the east and west sides, and everything is in order.
After the five people were temporarily arranged to take their seats, Li Shimin introduced the nearby dignitaries to Yuan Yueze one by one. Kou Zhong and the other were blowing enthusiastically at a table not far away. They just made a victory gesture under their armpits, which made Yuan Yueze feel funny: This must have been taught by Wei Zhenzhen or Song Shi Taoist.
At the obvious annoyance of the failure of the "scheme", Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, who looked gloomy, smiled slightly. Yuan Yueze looked at the two empty seats beside him and said to Song Yuzhi not far away: Zhizhi sits next to me
Song Yuzhi wrinkled his handsome nose and said: That was the position arranged by the emperor, so people dare not sit down!
Listening to her slightly sarcastic tone, Li Yuanji, who was at the same table, looked even colder.
Li Shimin's expression remained unchanged: This is the seat arranged by his father for the young marshal and Xiuning.
Yuan Yueze was not very sorry. Li Yuan, the old fox, obviously had to plot against Yuan Yueze at the beginning. It is necessary to know that if Li Xiuning sat between him and Kou Zhong, the three people with emotional entanglements would be passive due to embarrassment.
Yuan Yueze's face suddenly became extremely calm, and he quickly fled into the contemplation of no one or no self
At this moment, a sudden stir at the entrance of the hall was Shang Xiufang. It turned out that it was Li Xiuning who accompanied her. Men and women competed to see her style, which showed her amazing charm.
Since Shang Xiuxun sat down, no one dared to look at him anymore. One reason is that she is so perfect that she is almost illusory, making people feel no evil thoughts; the other reason is that she is the beautiful wife of Yuan Yueze, who dares to take a look at her more!
Shang Xiufang is more real than her. The most important thing is that Shang Xiufang is a famous flower without a ‘master’
Shang Xiufang is indeed born with beautiful beauty and beautiful colors. The most moving thing is that she walks, stands, sits and lies down, and is full of manners; every frown and smile can make all living beings
When she and Li Xiuning came to Yuan Yueze's table, including Li Shimin, they were all so charming and beautiful that she held her breath after showing off her light makeup.
Li Jiancheng and Ke Dazhi both stared at Shang Xiufang with obsessive expressions
She seemed to be like her affectionate big eyes dripped around everyone, and finally stopped on Yuan Yueze who was thinking deeply, and smiled: Xiufang thanked the prince and the emperor for invitations. After leaving for several months, how can she be fine?
Her eyes kept falling on Yuan Yueze, but the first sentence was said to Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng's expression remained unchanged, but a sinister look flashed in his eyes. Ke Dazhi, who was beside him, looked at Yuan Yueze with jealous face.
Ah?
Yuan Yueze, who could fall into deep thought at any time under any circumstances, was pushed by Bai Qing'er beside him and woke up immediately. The first thing he wanted was to wear a palace uniform, showing his noble temperament, and the faint smile on his pretty face was obviously squeezed out by Li Xiuning, so he smiled and said: So Xiuning is here, come on, sit down! Oh!
Bai Qing'er pinched him again, and Shang Xiufang, who looked embarrassed and dissatisfied, slid her mouth.
Xiufang is here too? Sit! Sit!
Yuan Yueze's strange expression and movements made everyone at the desk hold back their laughter, and the girls even laughed out loud.
Shang Xiufang looked even more embarrassed, and Li Shimin smoothed out: Miss Xiufang, please take your seat, the father should be here
Shang Xiufang sat down at the table with dissatisfaction, and Li Jiancheng and Kedazhi immediately went over and showed their gratitude.
There is no time to pay attention to Shang Xiufang, Yuan Yueze continued to think about how to turn passive into initiative, Bai Qing'er approached and pressed his voice down to the bottom, but every word was clear, and he said as if he was lying: The guests attending tonight were all the upper-class figures of Li Tang, so the young master must be more careful
Before Yuan Yueze could answer her, the palace music started
The Emperor of Tang arrived, and all the guests in the hall stood solemnly to welcome him.
Li Yuan led three concubines to arrive slowly, surrounded by dozens of eunuchs and palace maids.
All three girls are wearing big sleeves, which can reach the knees. They are embroidered with colorful gold-lined patterned cloaks. The cloak is wearing a short long skirt. The waist is tied to the waist and is close to the armpits. The three girls, who are originally tall and beautiful, look more slender and graceful. The lotus steps sway in a swaying orderly, which is very moving.
But the temperament of the three women is obviously different. The concubine on the left looks charming, and I look pitiful; the woman on the right looks like she is confusing all living beings; the concubine with a slightly raised belly that Li Yuan held with her own hands is undoubtedly the most favored one. She has a pretty face, a clear outline, a high nose and deep eyes, and a blond hair and blue eyes. She is obviously a woman outside the border. Under her weak appearance, she vaguely exudes a wildness in her bones. For a man who likes to conquer, this woman is indeed a top beauty.
Halfway through the team, a few girls walked out of it, and stood beside Li Jiancheng and the three brothers. I think they should be their respective concubines.
Most of the people who were at the same table with Yuan Yueze were Li Yuan's confidants. He looked at the little bird beside Li Shimin, who was passed down by others and later generations. Yuan Yueze secretly said that under this emperor's greatest feudal system, if a minister or concubine could be remembered for generations, it would be closely related to the emperor's wiseness to a large extent. He only said that Empress Xiao, if he met Li Shimin, not Yang Guang, his reputation would never be worse than Empress Changsun.
After a little bit of emotion, Yuan Yueze used the supreme spiritual method to explore the woman's body that should be Lian Guifei's woman, and found that she really did not know how to do martial arts.
When the Li family members sat down at the Liuwei Chairman, Li Yuan took the lead and said: Tonight is a banquet for my Tang Dynasty to welcome the young master Yuan Yueze of Luoyang and the young marshal. At the same time, my elder brother, who was more than 40 years ago, and Yueshan, who was famous in northern Shaanxi, also came to Chang'an for such a happy day. Please drink happily and don't be restrained!
The ministers and guests in the palace, led by Li Yuan's two closest ministers, Liu Wenjing and Pei Ji, toasted Li Yuan and Yuan Yueze three times, which made the atmosphere in the palace become warm.
Yuan Yuezexin asked Song Shidao to attend the banquet? What about others?
Li Yuan pressed his hands with his hands and said: It will be the Spring Festival soon. The Turkic Khan will send the martial arts master "Wu Zun" Bi Xuan to visit us in Chang'an; and the Grand Chief of Goryeo's "Five Swords" Gaisuwen will also come to Chang'an by then, and everyone can also attend the New Year banquet at that time!
Everyone promised
Then dozens of singers floated out like colorful butterflies on the back doors on both sides of the chairman, singing and dancing in the melodious drum music.
After the dance, the cheers sounded loudly
The palace maids brought delicious food to the table like flowing water, which was another fun
It was Li Yuan's turn to toast everyone, and a harmonious atmosphere was created with the guests and guests.
This is his grandmother's welcome banquet, it is clearly showing off Li Tang's great power and strong strength.
Yuan Yueze cursed inwardly
After three rounds of drinking, Li Shimin stood up in Huajian's gorgeous clothes. He was elegant and arrogant and handsome, and said loudly: Since the world-famous Brother Yuan and Young Marshal Kou are participating tonight, and both are martial arts masters, why not add some interest to the banquet?
When this boy looked at Kou Zhong, who was lost when he saw Li Xiuning and Yuan Yueze on the other side, his eyes flashed with a fierce look from time to time. I wonder what kind of grudge he had with Yuan Yueze and Kou Zhong, he had to do with him.
After looking at the absent-minded Kou Zhong and the unnatural Li Xiuning, Yuan Yueze shook his head and sighed. This relationship is so complicated, so he stood up and said?
What is the name of this brother? If you want to compete, what's wrong? Yuan will accompany you to the end!
The young man said proudly: Chai Shao, Brother Yuan is very skilled in martial arts. Can you ask me to challenge the young marshal first?
Chai Shao's sentence is indeed brilliant. After his marriage with Li Xiuning was suddenly cancelled, he naturally hated Yuan Yueze to death. Yuan Yueze was too famous, and Kou Zhong and Yuan Yueze were well-known. Although they were very cold after coming to Chang'an, they still did not reassure anyone. Chai Shao's words not only did not arouse the disgust of everyone, but made people appreciate his angrily more. Although no one was allowed to compete in the forbidden palace, the Li family had a tradition: every festival was festive, it was a good day for competition. Everyone just stopped and there would be no serious injury or bleeding.
Because of the strong martial style of Li Tang, their army was invincible
Chai Shao took this opportunity to not only use Li Xiuning to provoke Yuan and Kou, but also cleverly avoid Yuan Yueze. He took the opportunity to defeat Kou Zhong's prestige, who was obviously out of shape, and strive to get greater appreciation in front of Li Yuan.
This plan to count birds is indeed extraordinary
Li Shimin beside him still looked calm and composed. Even Yuan Yueze couldn't understand what he was thinking. If Chai Shao had made a move on such a big occasion because of his jealousy, wouldn't he be a fool?
Li Yuan, who was in the main work, frowned first and then said: The competition has nothing to do with it, just click it and stop. Are there any problems with Master Yuan and Young Marshal?
In this situation, Chai Shao said so generously. If the two of them dragged their minds, it would only affect their reputation and even undermine the confidence of the people in their respective territories.
Yuan Yueze doesn't care about this kind of thing, but Kou Zhong laughed and stood up straight. His burly and tall figure made many women in the hall shiny. He patted the thick-backed knife that Yuan Yueze gave him, walked a few steps forward, came to the center of the hall, bowed to Li Yuan: I have no objection, please give me more advice, but my brother Xu Ziling's cultivation is not inferior to me. Brother Chai next time he talks about me, don't forget to mention him
Chai Shao did not mention Xu Ziling for a long time, but Kou Zhong was dissatisfied, so he said this sentence
Brother Chai, wait!
A pleasant voice came from Li Jiancheng's seat. Then, under the gaze of everyone, Ke Dazhi rose up, came to the hall with high apology, knelt down to Li Yuan, and said: The commander of the Changlin Army, Ke Dazhi, had a battle agreement with the Young Marshal, but was delayed due to yesterday's incident. In this situation tonight, can you ask the villain to fight with the Young Marshal instead of Brother Chai?
He is not a overlord like Yuan Yueze and Kou Zhong, so he still has to perform the etiquette of the monarch and his subjects.
His trick was really good. Just looking at Chai Shao and him, they could talk before the master. It can be seen that not only have a high status, but also must be instructed. On the one hand, he mocked Li Shimin as a suspect, on the other hand, he implied that Chai Shao was not a match for Kou Zhong at all, and on the other hand, he grabbed Chai Shao's limelight on himself. The momentum established by the Tiance Mansion was so cleverly 'stealed' by him.
He glanced at Li Shimin with an unchanging expression and Li Jiancheng with a cold expression, and said to Li Shimin: But if the general is interested, please!
Later, Yuan Yueze suddenly realized: Li Shimin is extremely wise
Because Prince Li Jiancheng sent Turkic master Ke Dazhi to fight, he challenged the Tiance Mansion by "making friends through martial arts" at banquets of all sizes. Except for Li Jing, everyone else was defeated by others.
The success or failure of this two-person fight is not only irrelevant to the overall situation, but in fact it has a serious impact on the momentum, morale and confidence of the Tiance Mansion.
Due to Li Shimin's extraordinary military achievements, Tiance Mansion established a supreme and perfect image among the Tang Dynasty's military and civilians, but with his mad sand sword technique, he wanted to break a gap in this flawless image.
As one rises and the other falls, the reputation of the Changlin Army has increased, thus
If Li Shimin did not try to remedy and restore his reputation, he would be forced to be at a disadvantage in the fight against Jiancheng Yuanji.
Because Li Yuan was instigated by his favorite concubine and villain, his impression of Li Shimin became worse. However, he still failed to entrust Li Shimin, and was forced to do so. Once this situation was reversed, the consequences would be unpredictable.
The Tiance Mansion lost many games in a row, but it only happened at the imperial banquet where the model was small on weekdays. Although it was exaggerated and spread by the princeling party, the damage was serious and it was not decisive.
But tonight, a group of ministers and foreign guests gathered together. If the Tiance Mansion was defeated again, the consequences would be unimaginable.
When he first sent Chai Shao, who was already angry, to challenge Kou Zhong, he had guessed the idea of Li Jiancheng's people. Next, Ke Dazhi, who was fond of martial arts, jumped out to grab the credit, but it was actually just a small victory. Li Shimin cleverly transformed the conflict between the princeling and the Tiance Mansion into the conflict between the princeling and the Yuan and Kou. What's even more amazing is that outsiders think that Yuan and Kou are helping Li Shimin, which is the best thing for Li Shimin to regain the reputation of the new generation.
When Yuan Yueze frowned when he was plotted by Li Shimin, he heard Li Yuan say: OK, just like before the two of you asked for a competition, I would like to invite another VIP tonight.
As soon as he finished speaking, a fierce murderous aura suddenly burst out from the dark corridor behind him, filling the spacious hall
The hall is quiet and silent
Everyone held their breath and stared at the entrance of the corridor
----
Li Shimin, who looked like nothing had happened on the outside, came to pick Yuan Yueze up to the Tai Chi Palace for a banquet.
The group walked from Anli Gate to Heyu Hall, Ganlu Hall, Liangyi Hall, and Taiji Hall, and walked towards Taiji Palace in a mighty way.
Li Shimin kept saying this and that, but Yuan Yueze's thoughts flew back an hour ago

Another thing caught the attention of Yuan Yueze and Zhu Yuyan. When Yuan Yueze was drooling and talking about the trembling man about the "Man Stick" criminal law, the couple clearly noticed a faint and peaceful spirit, which came from at least a hundred feet away and passed in a blink of an eye.
The inconvenient move Yun Shuai and Lian Rou arranged in a hidden cave in the wild, and temporarily imprisoned the half-dead man. Yuan Yueze and Zhu Yuyan rushed into the city quickly
First, he would call two of his beautiful wives and use his power to bring back the hope of Yunshuai’s father and daughter.
Entering the palace, returning to the Xiyuan, and briefly tell the story of the girls who are here. Yun Yuzhen and Wei Zhenzhen go to detoxify Yunshuai’s father and daughter.

However, in order not to show his flaws, Brother Song wanted to know the origin of the mysterious master, but he had to refuse his letter and said that it was inconvenient to contact us and act according to the opportunity.
Yuan Yueze thought to himself how could he easily accept Li Yuan's proposal with Yueshan's arrogant personality? Therefore, Song Shidao could only refuse.
So he sipped her tender face and said: What did you find today?
Shan Meixian told Yuan Yueze that Bai Qing'er's "scheming" and Xiao He'er was left in "Shanglinyuan" by the stubborn Ji Qianqiang. Except for being followed, the other women did not encounter any other things to tell Yuan Yueze.
Bai Qing'er only felt a flash in front of her eyes. Yuan Yueze's big mouth pecked at her pretty face, then said with appreciation: Qing'er's hand is really amazing
Bai Qing'er was flirtatious and angry in public and was flushed and pink. He kicked out and almost hit Yuan Yueze's life. Yuan Yueze, who jumped ten feet behind, covered his crotch with an exaggerated look and shouted: You dare to ruin me, my wife may hate you to death
The other girls had long been used to his acting like he was playing tricks, but Bai Qing'er was still not very adaptable and said to Shan Meixian powerlessly: Do you care about him?
Shan Meixian glanced at Yuan Yueze and said: Stop making trouble. Tonight's banquet will be made by Xiuxun, Zhizhi, Feng'er and Qing'er will accompany their husbands to attend.
Except for Bai Qing'er, these four girls are enough to attend such important occasions in terms of identity. Although Bai Qing'er is unknown, she is a good plan by Shan Meixian. It can be used to show Yuan Yueze's importance to her. Yin Zuwen, who is confused, will definitely attend.
Yuan Yueze said: Don’t you and Guan Er participate? In terms of experience, it’s better for you to deal with that kind of occasion.
Xiao Feng shook his head and said: It is not convenient for me to attend. I met my younger brother today. He is pedantic and rigid, thinking that I have lost the face of the Xiao family, and we are very furious. In order to avoid Li Yuan, who has never looked at her for the past few days, she decided not to attend. Zhizhi and Qing'er are enough to deal with that kind of occasion for my husband.
Yuan Yueze sighed: Xiao Yu seems to be following Li Tang. Li Yuan dared to make a fool of himself, which made me angry. Kill him in public tonight!
Shan Meixian smiled and said: Don’t do anything nonsense. Wouldn’t you regret it if you ruin a big thing with impulse?
Dugu Feng said: That’s right, this way, it’s obvious how charming Meixian Sister is!
Shan Meixian tapped her little head and said: Let’s discuss the possible situations and solutions at the banquet first!
Brother Yuan! Brother Yuan! Arrived!
Li Shimin's voice awakens Yuan Yueze from his meditation
Coughed awkwardly, Yuan Yueze looked over
In front of you is a wide square with bell towers and drum towers on both sides. The magnificent Tai Chi Hall is located in front of you. It is located directly north of the square with a vast atmosphere.
In the square covered with gray brick floors, a large stone slab is used to pave a road in front of the hall as an imperial road, and go straight to the hall gate
Taiji Hall is the most magnificent building in the palace, with twelve rooms open and fifteen rooms deep.
The most amazing thing is that the roof of the hall is single-eaves and four-slope style, and the brackets are full of four layers. The structure is simple and complex, which is actually a combination of beauty and mechanics.
The vast palace has six round tables at the north end. Those who can sit in these six seats are of course the royal family.
Arrange seats on both sides of the east and west, everything is in order
At this time, the hall was filled with more than a hundred guests, mainly officials of the Tang Dynasty and family, as well as local merchants, envoys from other places and Hu merchants.
Whether it is the palace maids and officials, they are dressed up in colorful clothes, dressed in silk, dressed in beautiful clothes, shining with pearls and jade, dressed in fragrant powder, and dressed in colorful scenery, adding infinite gentleness to the night banquet
Although the hall is full of people, it is a palace banquet. Everyone is solemn and self-controlled, and dare not make noise. They just whisper and the atmosphere is restrained and serious.
After Yuan Yueze and his group stepped into the hall half a step, the eyes of the entire hall gathered on the main guest's family tonight. Li Shimin stood by instructively
All the men's eyes were focused on Shang Xiuxun on Yuan Yueze's right side, and all the women's eyes were focused on Yuan Yueze's eyes.
As soon as Shang Xiuxun stepped into the hall, all the people and things in the hall became dull. Her plain face without makeup, her elegant and elegant temperament was only a simple white palace gauze body, tied behind her head with an ornamental bow, which was completely different from the ponytail of the complex palace bun in this era, which not only surpassed the definition of "perfection", but also made people have an individual who existed independently of the world. Looking at her for a long time would desecrate this holy goddess.
Whether married or unmarried women in the hall are of course jealousy after being lost, but their eyes are attracted by the handsome Xuanwu and the unrestrained Yuan Yueze. Even many young girls who are still waiting to be named can no longer treat him.
Yuan Yueze and the four girls both had goose bumps. He never liked to be high-profile, but he was not used to the feeling of being watched by monkeys.
Li Shimin coughed heavily, woke up the dazed people, and led the five people to the palace at the six round tables at the north end. It is not easy to sit in the six seats. According to the scale, they are all under Li Yuan's third son. Prince Li Jiancheng has the most seats, followed by Li Shimin and Li Yuanji has the least seats. At this time, the people who have arrived have arranged seats on the east and west sides, and everything is in order.
After the five people were temporarily arranged to take their seats, Li Shimin introduced the nearby dignitaries to Yuan Yueze one by one. Kou Zhong and the other were blowing enthusiastically at a table not far away. They just made a victory gesture under their armpits, which made Yuan Yueze feel funny: This must have been taught by Wei Zhenzhen or Song Shi Taoist.
At the obvious annoyance of the failure of the "scheme", Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, who looked gloomy, smiled slightly. Yuan Yueze looked at the two empty seats beside him and said to Song Yuzhi not far away: Zhizhi sits next to me
Song Yuzhi wrinkled his handsome nose and said: That was the position arranged by the emperor, so people dare not sit down!
Listening to her slightly sarcastic tone, Li Yuanji, who was at the same table, looked even colder.
Li Shimin's expression remained unchanged: This is the seat arranged by his father for the young marshal and Xiuning.
Yuan Yueze was not very sorry. Li Yuan, the old fox, obviously had to plot against Yuan Yueze at the beginning. It is necessary to know that if Li Xiuning sat between him and Kou Zhong, the three people with emotional entanglements would be passive due to embarrassment.
Yuan Yueze's face suddenly became extremely calm, and he quickly fled into the contemplation of no one or no self
At this moment, a sudden stir at the entrance of the hall was Shang Xiufang. It turned out that it was Li Xiuning who accompanied her. Men and women competed to see her style, which showed her amazing charm.
Since Shang Xiuxun sat down, no one dared to look at him anymore. One reason is that she is so perfect that she is almost illusory, making people feel no evil thoughts; the other reason is that she is the beautiful wife of Yuan Yueze, who dares to take a look at her more!
Shang Xiufang is more real than her. The most important thing is that Shang Xiufang is a famous flower without a ‘master’
Shang Xiufang is indeed born with beautiful beauty and beautiful colors. The most moving thing is that she walks, stands, sits and lies down, and is full of manners; every frown and smile can make all living beings
When she and Li Xiuning came to Yuan Yueze's table, including Li Shimin, they were all so charming and beautiful that she held her breath after showing off her light makeup.
Li Jiancheng and Ke Dazhi both stared at Shang Xiufang with obsessive expressions
She seemed to be like her affectionate big eyes dripped around everyone, and finally stopped on Yuan Yueze who was thinking deeply, and smiled: Xiufang thanked the prince and the emperor for invitations. After leaving for several months, how can she be fine?
Her eyes kept falling on Yuan Yueze, but the first sentence was said to Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng's expression remained unchanged, but a sinister look flashed in his eyes. Ke Dazhi, who was beside him, looked at Yuan Yueze with jealous face.
Ah?
Yuan Yueze, who could fall into deep thought at any time under any circumstances, was pushed by Bai Qing'er beside him and woke up immediately. The first thing he wanted was to wear a palace uniform, showing his noble temperament, and the faint smile on his pretty face was obviously squeezed out by Li Xiuning, so he smiled and said: So Xiuning is here, come on, sit down! Oh!
Bai Qing'er pinched him again, and Shang Xiufang, who looked embarrassed and dissatisfied, slid her mouth.
Xiufang is here too? Sit! Sit!
Yuan Yueze's strange expression and movements made everyone at the desk hold back their laughter, and the girls even laughed out loud.
Shang Xiufang looked even more embarrassed, and Li Shimin smoothed out: Miss Xiufang, please take your seat, the father should be here
Shang Xiufang sat down at the table with dissatisfaction, and Li Jiancheng and Kedazhi immediately went over and showed their gratitude.
There is no time to pay attention to Shang Xiufang, Yuan Yueze continued to think about how to turn passive into initiative, Bai Qing'er approached and pressed his voice down to the bottom, but every word was clear, and he said as if he was lying: The guests attending tonight were all the upper-class figures of Li Tang, so the young master must be more careful
Before Yuan Yueze could answer her, the palace music started
The Emperor of Tang arrived, and all the guests in the hall stood solemnly to welcome him.
Li Yuan led three concubines to arrive slowly, surrounded by dozens of eunuchs and palace maids.
All three girls are wearing big sleeves, which can reach the knees. They are embroidered with colorful gold-lined patterned cloaks. The cloak is wearing a short long skirt. The waist is tied to the waist and is close to the armpits. The three girls, who are originally tall and beautiful, look more slender and graceful. The lotus steps sway in a swaying orderly, which is very moving.
But the temperament of the three women is obviously different. The concubine on the left looks charming, and I look pitiful; the woman on the right looks like she is confusing all living beings; the concubine with a slightly raised belly that Li Yuan held with her own hands is undoubtedly the most favored one. She has a pretty face, a clear outline, a high nose and deep eyes, and a blond hair and blue eyes. She is obviously a woman outside the border. Under her weak appearance, she vaguely exudes a wildness in her bones. For a man who likes to conquer, this woman is indeed a top beauty.
Halfway through the team, a few girls walked out of it, and stood beside Li Jiancheng and the three brothers. I think they should be their respective concubines.
Most of the people who were at the same table with Yuan Yueze were Li Yuan's confidants. He looked at the little bird beside Li Shimin, who was passed down by others and later generations. Yuan Yueze secretly said that under this emperor's greatest feudal system, if a minister or concubine could be remembered for generations, it would be closely related to the emperor's wiseness to a large extent. He only said that Empress Xiao, if he met Li Shimin, not Yang Guang, his reputation would never be worse than Empress Changsun.
After a little bit of emotion, Yuan Yueze used the supreme spiritual method to explore the woman's body that should be Lian Guifei's woman, and found that she really did not know how to do martial arts.
When the Li family members sat down at the Liuwei Chairman, Li Yuan took the lead and said: Tonight is a banquet for my Tang Dynasty to welcome the young master Yuan Yueze of Luoyang and the young marshal. At the same time, my elder brother, who was more than 40 years ago, and Yueshan, who was famous in northern Shaanxi, also came to Chang'an for such a happy day. Please drink happily and don't be restrained!
The ministers and guests in the palace, led by Li Yuan's two closest ministers, Liu Wenjing and Pei Ji, toasted Li Yuan and Yuan Yueze three times, which made the atmosphere in the palace become warm.
Yuan Yuezexin asked Song Shidao to attend the banquet? What about others?
Li Yuan pressed his hands with his hands and said: It will be the Spring Festival soon. The Turkic Khan will send the martial arts master "Wu Zun" Bi Xuan to visit us in Chang'an; and the Grand Chief of Goryeo's "Five Swords" Gaisuwen will also come to Chang'an by then, and everyone can also attend the New Year banquet at that time!
Everyone promised
Then dozens of singers floated out like colorful butterflies on the back doors on both sides of the chairman, singing and dancing in the melodious drum music.
After the dance, the cheers sounded loudly
The palace maids brought delicious food to the table like flowing water, which was another fun
It was Li Yuan's turn to toast everyone, and a harmonious atmosphere was created with the guests and guests.
This is his grandmother's welcome banquet, it is clearly showing off Li Tang's great power and strong strength.
Yuan Yueze cursed inwardly
After three rounds of drinking, Li Shimin stood up in Huajian's gorgeous clothes. He was elegant and arrogant and handsome, and said loudly: Since the world-famous Brother Yuan and Young Marshal Kou are participating tonight, and both are martial arts masters, why not add some interest to the banquet?
When this boy looked at Kou Zhong, who was lost when he saw Li Xiuning and Yuan Yueze on the other side, his eyes flashed with a fierce look from time to time. I wonder what kind of grudge he had with Yuan Yueze and Kou Zhong, he had to do with him.
After looking at the absent-minded Kou Zhong and the unnatural Li Xiuning, Yuan Yueze shook his head and sighed. This relationship is so complicated, so he stood up and said?
What is the name of this brother? If you want to compete, what's wrong? Yuan will accompany you to the end!
The young man said proudly: Chai Shao, Brother Yuan is very skilled in martial arts. Can you ask me to challenge the young marshal first?
Chai Shao's sentence is indeed brilliant. After his marriage with Li Xiuning was suddenly cancelled, he naturally hated Yuan Yueze to death. Yuan Yueze was too famous, and Kou Zhong and Yuan Yueze were well-known. Although they were very cold after coming to Chang'an, they still did not reassure anyone. Chai Shao's words not only did not arouse the disgust of everyone, but made people appreciate his angrily more. Although no one was allowed to compete in the forbidden palace, the Li family had a tradition: every festival was festive, it was a good day for competition. Everyone just stopped and there would be no serious injury or bleeding.
Because of the strong martial style of Li Tang, their army was invincible
Chai Shao took this opportunity to not only use Li Xiuning to provoke Yuan and Kou, but also cleverly avoid Yuan Yueze. He took the opportunity to defeat Kou Zhong's prestige, who was obviously out of shape, and strive to get greater appreciation in front of Li Yuan.
This plan to count birds is indeed extraordinary
Li Shimin beside him still looked calm and composed. Even Yuan Yueze couldn't understand what he was thinking. If Chai Shao had made a move on such a big occasion because of his jealousy, wouldn't he be a fool?
Li Yuan, who was in the main work, frowned first and then said: The competition has nothing to do with it, just click it and stop. Are there any problems with Master Yuan and Young Marshal?
In this situation, Chai Shao said so generously. If the two of them dragged their minds, it would only affect their reputation and even undermine the confidence of the people in their respective territories.
Yuan Yueze doesn't care about this kind of thing, but Kou Zhong laughed and stood up straight. His burly and tall figure made many women in the hall shiny. He patted the thick-backed knife that Yuan Yueze gave him, walked a few steps forward, came to the center of the hall, bowed to Li Yuan: I have no objection, please give me more advice, but my brother Xu Ziling's cultivation is not inferior to me. Brother Chai next time he talks about me, don't forget to mention him
Chai Shao did not mention Xu Ziling for a long time, but Kou Zhong was dissatisfied, so he said this sentence
Brother Chai, wait!
A pleasant voice came from Li Jiancheng's seat. Then, under the gaze of everyone, Ke Dazhi rose up, came to the hall with high apology, knelt down to Li Yuan, and said: The commander of the Changlin Army, Ke Dazhi, had a battle agreement with the Young Marshal, but was delayed due to yesterday's incident. In this situation tonight, can you ask the villain to fight with the Young Marshal instead of Brother Chai?
He is not a overlord like Yuan Yueze and Kou Zhong, so he still has to perform the etiquette of the monarch and his subjects.
His trick was really good. Just looking at Chai Shao and him, they could talk before the master. It can be seen that not only have a high status, but also must be instructed. On the one hand, he mocked Li Shimin as a suspect, on the other hand, he implied that Chai Shao was not a match for Kou Zhong at all, and on the other hand, he grabbed Chai Shao's limelight on himself. The momentum established by the Tiance Mansion was so cleverly 'stealed' by him.
He glanced at Li Shimin with an unchanging expression and Li Jiancheng with a cold expression, and said to Li Shimin: But if the general is interested, please!
Later, Yuan Yueze suddenly realized: Li Shimin is extremely wise
Because Prince Li Jiancheng sent Turkic master Ke Dazhi to fight, he challenged the Tiance Mansion by "making friends through martial arts" at banquets of all sizes. Except for Li Jing, everyone else was defeated by others.
The success or failure of this two-person fight is not only irrelevant to the overall situation, but in fact it has a serious impact on the momentum, morale and confidence of the Tiance Mansion.
Due to Li Shimin's extraordinary military achievements, Tiance Mansion established a supreme and perfect image among the Tang Dynasty's military and civilians, but with his mad sand sword technique, he wanted to break a gap in this flawless image.
As one rises and the other falls, the reputation of the Changlin Army has increased, thus
If Li Shimin did not try to remedy and restore his reputation, he would be forced to be at a disadvantage in the fight against Jiancheng Yuanji.
Because Li Yuan was instigated by his favorite concubine and villain, his impression of Li Shimin became worse. However, he still failed to entrust Li Shimin, and was forced to do so. Once this situation was reversed, the consequences would be unpredictable.
The Tiance Mansion lost many games in a row, but it only happened at the imperial banquet where the model was small on weekdays. Although it was exaggerated and spread by the princeling party, the damage was serious and it was not decisive.
But tonight, a group of ministers and foreign guests gathered together. If the Tiance Mansion was defeated again, the consequences would be unimaginable.
When he first sent Chai Shao, who was already angry, to challenge Kou Zhong, he had guessed the idea of Li Jiancheng's people. Next, Ke Dazhi, who was fond of martial arts, jumped out to grab the credit, but it was actually just a small victory. Li Shimin cleverly transformed the conflict between the princeling and the Tiance Mansion into the conflict between the princeling and the Yuan and Kou. What's even more amazing is that outsiders think that Yuan and Kou are helping Li Shimin, which is the best thing for Li Shimin to regain the reputation of the new generation.
When Yuan Yueze frowned when he was plotted by Li Shimin, he heard Li Yuan say: OK, just like before the two of you asked for a competition, I would like to invite another VIP tonight.
As soon as he finished speaking, a fierce murderous aura suddenly burst out from the dark corridor behind him, filling the spacious hall
The hall is quiet and silent
Everyone held their breath and stared at the entrance of the corridor
