Tang Xuan

The bright girl was teasing the little beast in her arms. Under the reflection of the fire, Mingda smiled briskly, looked at the Firefox crouching in front of her, and teased it with the grilled venison.

Li Yu had just rode his horse to greet Emperor Ming, and he was probably still on his way.Lang Huai inserted Chunjun upside down into the soil, sat down cross-legged, and said, "It seems that it is tame to you now."

"If you don't accept me, I have my own means to deal with it!" Ming Da looked at Lang Huai with a curious expression on his face: "Brother Huai, why didn't you see you really go hunting all day?"

At this time, Li'er and Tao Jun came back with all kinds of delicacies, and seeing their masters talking happily, Li'er put down the things, and deliberately made excuses, and dragged Tao Jun who didn't know why to avoid it.

"Miss Li'er, what are you doing? We have to serve you in front of the master and the girl." Tao Jun was a little confused, and wanted to go there, but was slapped by Li'er.

"You can't let them stay alone for a while!" Li'er felt that Tao Jun was so stupid that it was unreasonable, and whispered: "Our girl is very happy with Captain Lang."

"Really?" Tao Jun didn't know why, but when he turned his head to look, Lang Huaiguo was really smiling, turning the deer legs on the fire, the fire was extinguished, and the laughter continued, he really couldn't bear to be disturbed.

"Brother Huai, think about it for me, what's a better name for this little guy?" Ming Da leaned in front of Lang Huai to eat the barbecue she had fed, but kept holding the Firefox in his hand.

Lang Huai didn't think there was anything wrong with feeding her like this. In her eyes, Mingda was just the little girl who followed her behind her back then, except that she had grown up a bit.She replied with a smile: "Since you are its owner, you can choose the name. I'm a rough man, how can I understand these things." These words were not an excuse, but made Mingda show a strange smile.

"That's really up to me? Don't regret it." Mingda picked up the little guy, seeing that it looked sleepy, it must be sleepy. "I'll call you... Captain Huai!"

Lang Huai was taken aback for a moment, he couldn't laugh or cry, he hurriedly said: "Mingda, don't make trouble."

"I didn't make a fuss! You don't like to ask you to name it. Since it belongs to me, I can call it whatever you want!" Mingda glanced at Lang Huai provocatively, his delicate face was gentle, his eyes were teasing and stubborn, but He laughed out loud again, and said to the dazed little Firefox: "Lieutenant Huai Du, do you like it?"

Huai Duwei burped, which made Mingda even more proud.So he decided on the name seriously, and every time he heard these three words, Lang Huai's back felt numb for a while.

On the other hand, Li Yu basically just went to the mountains today to see the snow, and free-range care for emotional injuries, so naturally he was at the bottom of the list.Emperor Ming said a few words to ask him to be aggressive, and he was even more angry when he saw Li Yu looking like he was dying.

Seeing that Emperor Ming seemed to be really angry, Li Xun had no choice but to persuade him: "Father, Seventh Brother knows his mistake. For the rest of the day, Er will also urge him, please don't get angry again."

It's okay if Li Xun doesn't persuade, but when he persuaded, Emperor Ming became even more impatient: "My brother is not up to date, and you have had it too, don't think that I don't know! He is like this now, because you, an older brother, always get used to it." , to raise such unbelievable things!"

Li Xun hurriedly knelt down to admit his mistake, he naturally knew that being stubborn at this time would only make Emperor Ming even more angry: "My son has made a mistake, I beg my father not to get angry, just punish my son."

Li Qian and Li Jin watched the excitement, until this time, he knelt down and said: "Father, don't get angry, the seventh brother is unfilial, and the son is also at fault."

This is the brother of the Tian family. Only then did Li Yu realize how much Li Xun would have to pay for him if the matter of Qin Shu was revealed.After kowtowing, Li Yudao: "Father, my son and minister are not good at martial arts. They don't match the appearance of my descendants of the Tang Dynasty. From now on, I will work hard to practice martial arts and never slack off. Please punish my father. I hope my father will not be sad. .In short, it is all unfilial sons and ministers, and has nothing to do with the three elder brothers."

He leaned down, unable to see the expression on his face.There was a seldom-seen frustration in the tone of voice, which could not be heard by others, but Li Xun was keenly aware of it.Emperor Ming only thought that these words were sensible, and he said some other words of encouragement, and that's all.

Li Yu said again: "Father, when I was hunting, I met Mingda by chance, so after discussing with Lang Duwei, I camped in the same place. Mingda was going to come to say hello to Father, but the weather was too cold, and I was afraid that she would be weak. After the wind and cold, she didn't let her follow. Mingda is fine now, Captain Lang caught her a firefox today, very happy. Please rest assured, Mingda will come to greet you tomorrow."

Hearing the news about his youngest daughter, Emperor Ming finally showed a real smile.Thinking that Mingda seemed to be close to Li Yu, the anger really disappeared. "Go back quickly, so as to protect Mingda's safety. Listen to Lang Huai in everything, do you know?"

"My son knows."

When Li Yu returned to the camping place, Ming Da had already fallen asleep.Seeing that Lang Huai was still outside the tent, he walked over.

"Trained?" Lang Huai had just finished practicing the sword weapon, and his breath was a little different.But seeing Li Yu, he couldn't help but feel happy.

"Don't mention it!" Li Yu said while gesturing his arm, and said: "I am a poor scholar with no strength to restrain a chicken, and I have no intention of these things."

The two talked for a while, and Lang Huai inquired about other people's rankings, and he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled - logically, why is Li Jin, King of Shu, only better than Li Yu?He was quite passionate about it.

With Lang Huai's keen sense of smell, she couldn't help calling Tao Jun in private, and asked him to find out Li Jin's reality overnight, so that he could respond.These are all her own speculations, so after thinking about it all night, she still thinks it's best not to tell Mingda and Li Yu for the time being.

On the second day, Li Yuqiang worked hard and really hunted him a lot of prey, but they were all just small things like rabbits.But fortunately, Mingda followed when he asked how he was, Minghuang only cared about his daughter and didn't say anything else.

"Daddy, this is my daughter's new little guy, called Captain Huai." Ming Da showed the Firefox in his arms to Emperor Ming as if offering a treasure.

"Oh, this is your little Firefox? It's born well." Emperor Ming rubbed Firefox's head, then looked at the embarrassed Lang Huai, and said, "It's just that the name made Lang Huai feel a little embarrassed. Bar."

Lang Huai would not falsely deny it, but said embarrassingly: "It was the humble minister who offended the girl, this is really..."

"However, I see that what you have hunted is really limited, but this errand has limited you?" Ming Huang continued to ask, word by word.

"The responsibility of the minister is to protect the girl, and the rest is secondary to the minister." Lang Huai told the truth, which also reassured Emperor Ming.

The dinner was held in front of Minghuang's tent, and Li Qian specially invited an opera troupe to perform for Minghuang, who loves music.

This troupe is the famous Caiyun troupe in Pingkangfang. The song "Chasing the Moon" is really tactful and mournful, and it breaks my heart.After the song, Emperor Ming nodded in praise, he is a master in this way, such admiration is enough to prove the strength of Caiyun Squad.

"My father likes it, and my son is very happy." Li Qian looked at Lang Huai, and said: "My sister Gucheng practiced a good song a few days ago, but she was embarrassed to play it for my father. Today, my son can't say it, I have to give it to you." She missed the news."

This said, the Emperor Ming was really interested. Gucheng inherited his artistic taste and indeed had unique insights in these aspects.

"My younger sister knows that my father has always been obsessed with Gongsun Da Niang's sword dance, so I practiced the sword dance music hard." Li Qian turned around and said to Lang Huai who was standing behind Mingda: "Everyone in Chang'an knows that Lang Duwei is Da Niang's closed disciple. , I wonder if it is possible to invite Captain Lang and Sister She to cooperate and present a dance for the father?"

When Li Qian's words danced around the sword, Lang Huai knew what he meant.At this time, she had a cold expression on her face and did not speak.

The atmosphere changed a bit, Emperor Ming still had a smile on his lips, but he didn't comment on Li Qian's words.Gucheng herself was beaming, and was waiting for Lang Huai to agree to perform together—speaking of which, she also liked Lang Huai's temperament and appearance.Li Xun and Li Yu kept silent, unwilling to get involved in this turmoil.His Royal Highness the King of Shu was holding the wine glass, but he was slightly drunk from drinking.

After waiting for a long time, but seeing no movement from Lang Huai, Li Qian's expression changed.But Emperor Ming didn't open his mouth, which made him have to think about what Emperor Ming meant.

"Brother Huai, I haven't seen a sword weapon since you went to Anxi. Please trouble you today, okay?" Ming Da's bright voice finally eased the freezing atmosphere.Lang Huai looked at her, Mingda's meaning was too obvious, so he nodded and said, "Then I will accuse you, the clothes are a bit cumbersome, let me take off the armor."

Lang Huai didn't shy away from it, he just turned his back, quickly took off the light armor on his body, and handed it to Tao Jun.

"Your Majesty, I'm a humble minister who can't learn art one or two times, and I'm showing my ugliness." Lang Huai bowed and saluted, and then said to Princess Gucheng: "Please, Your Highness."

Gucheng smiled shyly, ordered someone to fetch the piano, played a tune, and signaled to start.

In the past, the Gongsun family danced in all directions, and today Lang Huai draws his sword, but there is a clear wind and sand outside the Great Wall.

With Chun Jun in his hand, Lang Huai held his breath, and followed the music of the piano.After five years of fighting, Lang Huai's sword was full of murderous intent.Sometimes it moves like a hurricane, and sometimes it falls like an avalanche.Lang Huai was on this square platform, but he was as free and unrestrained as he was in the golden desert.

For a while, Lang Huai also forgot about the other side, only thinking about the sword intent in the sword.Although she was only wearing a plain robe of moon white, she looked like a hero in the world at the moment, with a very imposing manner.

The sound of the piano gradually decreased, and finally fell silent after the final loudness.

Lang Huai's sword was unstoppable, and the field was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling.

After a long time, Emperor Ming gave a good drink.The people around came to their senses and praised him one after another.

Holding his breath, Lang Huai held back his depression since returning to Beijing, put his sword back into its sheath, and bowed to the Emperor Ming who was sitting on the high seat: "This humble minister has made a fool of himself."

Emperor Ming sighed: "If my aunt knew what you have achieved now, she would definitely show off her face." Isn't it?In the 29th year of Kaiyang, a generation of master Gongsun Aunt passed away.There are many good sword dancers in the Gongsun family, but no sword masters. It has to be said that it is a pity in the world.

"Okay, okay, sister Gucheng's Qin is wonderful, Lang Duwei's sword is wonderful, it's a match made in heaven!" Li Qian stood up, with a full smile, and walked over to pour the wine himself, saying: "The captain opened my eyes. , so that sister Gucheng's qin music has a bosom friend, I respect you!"

Lang Huai was vigilant, looked at him, and said respectfully: "I have a job to do, so I don't want to drink, so I invite His Highness Huai Wang Haihan. This trivial trick, how can it be compared with Princess Gucheng? I dare not, Please forgive me, Your Highness." Her attitude was respectful, but what she said was to reject Li Qian thousands of miles away.Sure enough, Li Qian's originally ruddy complexion changed.

Lang Huai ignored him, and stood behind Ming Da by himself, keeping silent.
