Tang's dining table

Unlike Li Zhi's happy banquet scene, Wu Mei's banquet scene was too scary.

Li Si buried his head in Yu Xiurong's arms and did not dare to look up at all. Naha, on the other hand, opened her eyes wide and stared at the dance scene with swords and swords.

Yu Xiurong patted Li Si's back gently, comforting the timid child. A long sword with a ribbon tied to its tail flew past Yu Xiurong's ear, turned back in mid-air and flew high into the sky. It was about to fall after exhaustion. When it came, it was pulled aside by the ribbon again, spinning and returned to the sword queen's hand.

The techniques of these sword queens were not good. Many women's buns that they had managed to make were cut off by long swords. They sat there with their hair disheveled, covering their mouths and trying not to scream.

Some women were injured by the long swords tied with ribbons. The most serious one had a long sword embedded in her face. No matter how much the sword girl shook the ribbon, she could not pull it back.

The woman's screams were obscured by the violent drumming. Two strong palace men pulled out the sword from the woman's face and hurriedly dragged her out.

Yu Xiurong knew the woman with the sword in her face as the elderly mother of Gao Xingxing, the consort who had just died.

Yu Xiurong was also frightened by the sword just now and turned pale. So Naha pulled out a baseball bat from her lower back, left her seat, and stood behind her sister-in-law and Li Si with the stick. She had already thought about it. , if any damn swordswoman dares to throw her sword over, she will be ready to smash it back.

After a burst of violent drumbeats, the scene finally returned to silence. Wu Mei looked at the group of panicked women below and chuckled, pointing at the angry Naha and saying: "Why are you standing up?"

Yu Xiurong wanted to hit Naha, but Naha dodged her. She looked at the queen and said, "I want to kill that cheap maid who just threw the sword at my sister-in-law!"

Wu Mei smiled and said, "You can't beat her."

Naha said: "Let her come out and see if I can beat her to death."

Wu Mei laughed and said, "Everyone was shocked by the sword dance, but you are not afraid at all."

Naha wanted to speak, but Yu Xiurong quickly grabbed Naha and smiled at Wu Mei: "Queen, please don't blame me. This child has always been naughty and was spoiled by Master Xuanzang and Sun Lao Shenxian."

Wu Mei looked at Yu Xiurong and said, "You don't have to drag Master Xuanzang and Immortal Sun out to plead for this fried rabbit.

I know what kind of temperament she has, and it is this kind of temperament that makes people like her. Come on, behead the lowly maid who just disturbed Mrs. Lan Tianhou! I also apologize to everyone here.

Come, come, let's drink this cup together to calm our troubled hearts. "

The women in the Liangyi Hall raised their glasses one after another. In a short period of time, these women seemed to have adjusted. Although their faces were pale, they still had no lack of etiquette.

As soon as the wine glass was put down, someone from the palace walked up to the Liangyi Palace carrying a red lacquered wooden plate and showed Wu Mei the lifelike human head on the plate.

Wu Mei said to Naha: "Are you satisfied now? Don't ever go to Master Xuanzang and tell Sun Shenxian that you are not good at me!"

Wu Mei's words were very playful, but the bloody head of the beautiful woman on the plate was vivid, and her terrified expression before death was lifelike.

For some reason, Wu Mei thought that a human head could scare Naha, but she didn’t know that Naha had seen more heads chopped off than Wu Mei had ever seen. You know, Naha was practicing throwing stones. , just rotten human heads.

The decoration on the dead man's head was still very neat. It seemed that the executioner deliberately kept this integrity when he chopped off the head.

So, Naha looked at Wu Mei and said, "Please Queen, please reward me with this head."

Wu Mei said: "What are you here for?"

Naha clasped her hands together, the lotus pattern between her eyebrows appeared, and said in a solemn voice: "I want to return her head to her body, otherwise, she will not be reincarnated."

Wu Mei said: "Dance for me."

Naha smiled and said: "Okay."

Naha has learned many kinds of dances from Gongsun over the years, but she can't dance any of them well. Even the Buddhist dance, which she thinks she is best at, Naha can't dance well.

Although Naha's dance was like a monkey jumping around, everyone present took it seriously and hoped that Naha could dance for a while longer, because when Naha dances, it is the safest for them. when.

Therefore, whenever Naha was about to finish dancing, the women cheered and hoped that Naha would continue dancing.

After Naha experienced a lot of activities, the lotus pattern between her eyebrows was as red as blood, and it seemed that a red lotus really came to life between her eyebrows.

I don’t know which woman suddenly chanted the Buddha’s name—Amitabha.

Immediately, the sound of shouting for Amitabha resounded throughout the Liangyi Hall, and Naha danced even more vigorously and looked even uglier.

Yu Xiurong looked worriedly at Naha who was jumping around in the field, but Li Si turned away from Yu Xiurong's arms tremblingly, looked at Wu Mei with a frown for a while, and finally came to Wu Mei and said carefully : "Mother!"

Wu Mei looked down at Li Si, and after a long while, she opened her arms and said, "Come, come to the queen mother's arms."

Li Si threw herself into Wu Mei's arms, looked at Naha who was still jumping and said, "Okay, let's listen to the music together."

Yu Xiurong looked at the music list on the table and found that Wu Mei skipped two dances and started listening to Yuefu music directly.

One of the two dances is called "Xiu Ge" and the other is "Wan Wu". One is a dance in which the people kill pigs and sheep to send off the soldiers on the expedition, and the other dance is a dance to welcome the victorious return of the army.

The performers of these two dances will have weapons in their hands. It is difficult to tell whether they will kill pigs, sheep, or people.

Therefore, Naha's random dancing at the banquet was really the most wonderful and exciting dance in the world to the ladies present.

When Naha ended her long dance with a dance move of a wild goose flying south, there was thunderous cheers around her.

Especially when Naha came back to Yu Xiurong out of breath, the women stood up one after another, bowed and bowed, and praised Naha for her beautiful dance and that she was the best dancer in the world.

Only Wu Mei looked ugly and scolded Naha to practice more in the future to really perform the Buddhist dance.

Naha politely listened to Wu Mei's lesson and returned to Yu Xiurong obediently, while Li Si stared up at his mother with a pair of big eyes, holding a huge lotus on his head, without blinking.

Wu Mei stretched out a finger, slowly drew her long nails across Li Sibai's tender face, and said to Li Si, "How are you doing?"

Li Si said carefully: "Very good."

Wu Mei frowned and said, "Are you afraid of your mother?"

Li Si avoided Wu Mei's eyes and whispered: "Yu Aniang said that the mother is very busy and has no extra time to take care of the children."

Wu Mei smiled and said: "Mother is indeed very busy. All the hardships you have suffered today will be compensated for in the future."

As he spoke, he took off a crested hairpin from his head and wanted to insert it into Li Si's head. Unfortunately, the child had very little hair on his head, so he had to insert it into the huge lotus bud angrily. There is something indescribably weird about it.

Different from the banquet where the queen was the main character, where the queen could die at any time, Li Zhi's banquet was very lively.

Everyone was throwing pots, guessing coins, composing poems, and drinking. It was a lively mess.

Li Shen stood up drunkenly, holding an arrow in his hand. When he walked by Yun Chu, he said in a low voice and quickly: "If I must die, I hope to die in your hands, don't let me It’s too painful to die.”

After saying that, he laughed and put the feather arrow in his hand accurately into the bottle two feet away.

Yun Chu looked at Li Shen's swaying body and shook his head with a wry smile. Could it be that the life of the royal family is already so difficult now?

Because it was free time, Li Hong sat across from Yunchu's table, leaned on the table and asked Yunchu: "Who is your target today?"

Yun Chu replied in a low voice: "There is no goal."

Li Hongdao: "It looks different this year. Four people died during the festival last year, all from the Li family in Longxi."

"Is your recent refusal to go to Jinchangfang related to these things?"

"Yes, it's not good for a prince like me to always make friends with military generals."

"I am not a military commander now, but a civil servant, and I do not have troops under my command. You can continue to come to Jinchangfang."

"That won't work. My father is suspicious and my mother is fierce. I have already begged my mother to ask you to be my martial arts master. Once my father agrees, there will be no problem for me to go to your house again. For now, I It is better to study more, grow some cabbage and onions, and cultivate your reputation."

"Who told you these words?"

"Li Yifu."

"I thought it was Shangguan Yi."

"Shangguanyi hopes to get closer to his father and learn more Confucian words from his father to the best of his ability. He hopes that his father will be kind."

"Who do you think said something good for you?"

"Of course it's Li Yifu. My father is already very kind and never kills anyone! If I do what Shangguan Yi said, my father will hate me."

When Yunchu saw that everyone was busy and no one was paying attention, he slapped Li Hong on the head and said, "Slippery!"

Li Hong was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yun Chu and said, "Continue to endure it. After I inherit the throne, I won't have to endure it anymore."

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "After you inherit the throne, I will no longer serve you, Li Shi."

Li Hong took a breath and said, "Are you saying that there will still be a long, long time before I inherit the throne?"

Yun Chu smiled and said: "I am a minister for others, and it is my duty to be patient. It is you who have to be more patient. It is best to completely forget the nonsense you just told me, and don't even say it in your dreams."

Li Hong nodded, picked up the feather arrow on the table and threw it into the bronze pot with great accuracy.

It was more accurate than Li Shen's shot, and it was a "four-shot" shot, which immediately attracted cheers from a group of people.

According to the rules, Li Hong needed to drink a bottle of wine, which is called victory. Li Hong got a bottle of wine, looked around, and said loudly to Li Zhi who was sitting on it: "Father, I have won a bottle of wine for you."

Li Zhi laughed loudly and said: "Since it is my son's victory wine, please bring it quickly and let your father drink victory wine."
