The Moon Over Tang Dynasty Chapter 167

Chapter 167 (Part 2) Feast style

Sitting at the main seat was a young man in his early twenties, dressed casually. He was wearing a sapphire blue square-patterned brocade robe with lapels and narrow sleeves. It seemed that it was too hot, and the collar was slightly loose, revealing a piece of Her skin is as fair as a virgin, and her head is tied with a silver crown inlaid with unknown gems. It is quite shining in the light. She is leaning leisurely on the table, with a slight smile at the corner of her mouth, which makes her figure even more slender. , Beautiful features. In terms of handsome facial features, they are perhaps even half a point inferior to Mu Sanlang, but these three points of nobility, three points of uninhibitedness and twelve points of romance make people almost take a breath of cold air.

Liuli couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and Feng Piaopiao responded with a smile, "The one in the brocade robe is our prince. Because he has a face as beautiful as a jade, his name also has a word that sounds like 'yu'. In Xizhou, everyone calls him Yulang."

Yulang? Why not just call Tanlang? Liuli could only smile and nod, thinking secretly in her heart: How much romantic debt should a man named like this owe... The eaves fell smoothly to the ground, Feng Piaopiao came over to hold her hand, and they walked towards the courtyard together. There was someone at the door. He said loudly, "Mrs. Chang Shi has arrived, Lady Feng has arrived!"

The eyes of all the people in the tent suddenly turned around. At the entrance of the tent, a maidservant helped the two of them take off their outer fur coats. The wind fluttered in an eight-piece long skirt with red and gold on the ground. She had thick eyelashes and red lips, as gorgeous as A ball of flame, Liuli is actually a dark blue slim-fitting bamboo leaf skirt, with snow-skinned skin and bright eyes, as clear as a bay of clear water.

There was a sudden silence in the noisy tent, and then a low laugh rang out, "Piaopiao, you are being compared today!" Heluo Mandarin was actually very mellow and pleasant.

Feng Piaopiao raised her eyes and said, "It's rare for the prince to say something true to this slave today!"

 The tent suddenly burst into laughter. Prince Qu stood up, smiled and saluted Liuli, "Madam, please take a seat."

Liuli returned the gift with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty." She turned around and walked to Pei Xingjian, bowed slightly, then walked around to the back of the couch and sat down side by side with him. Pei Xingjian glanced at her with a smile, turned to Prince Qu and smiled, "Thank you for your thoughtful hospitality, Prince Qu."

Prince Qu stretched out his index finger and shook it, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his eyes were raised slightly, "What kind of crown prince is Chongyu? Let alone say a word of thanks. Keeping the promise is too unobtrusive!"

 It turns out that his real name was Qu Chongyu, and within an hour of meeting Pei Xingjian, he had already started to address Pei Xingjian with the same name, but it didn't make people feel rude. Could it be because life is so beautiful? Liuli sighed secretly and glanced around casually, only to find that in addition to this Qu Chongyu, there were two handsome and unfamiliar men in the tent. They were well-dressed but could not tell their identities, and An's caravanner An Juro and the other two Hu merchants were present, but Mu Sanlang was missing...

Feng Piaopiao had already stepped forward and sat beside Qu Yulang with a calm expression. She reached out and filled another glass of wine for him. Qu Chongyu patted her gently before raising his palm to strike. After a while, a long line of young maids walked in with smiles, and arranged seven or eight exquisite dishes on the table in front of everyone, from camel hoof soup, grilled shrimp plate, to deer and bear double combination, and embroidered balls. Minced chicken is a popular dish in Chang'an nowadays, and the six-inch gilt silver plate in the middle actually contained a plate of raw fish and meat that was crystal clear and as thin as cicada wings.

Eating this dish in the winter in Dunhuang... Liuli couldn't help but secretly marveled. Pei Xingjian already smiled and said, "It's such a delicious dish. Thank you Yulang for taking the trouble."

Qu Chongyu smiled softly, "How can I keep my promise? If you two hadn't come thousands of miles away, I'm afraid ordinary people wouldn't be able to taste these dishes well, just like this fish breast, the frost knife blows white snow, and the gold plate is covered with light frost. , how can mediocre people appreciate this kind of beauty? Chongyu would like to thank you two. Speaking of which, Dunhuang's cuisine is not even close to that of Chang'an. If there is any improvement, it is just that. Beauty and wine." As he spoke, he raised the wine glass in front of him and dipped it into his mouth. "Today, I'll prepare a small amount of wine to keep my promise. It's not too rough to keep my promise."

Pei Xingjian thanked him with a smile and drank it all in one gulp. The tent suddenly became lively. Qu Chongyu turned around and toasted Anjuro and others. Anjuro stood up and thanked Qu Yulang for his care over the past two years. Just as Liuli was about to take a few more sips of camel hoof soup, Feng Piaopiao came over and filled Liuli's glass of wine himself.

 After finally finishing this round of drinks, Qu Chongyu gave him a high-five. There was already a musical instrument standing in the tent. The music was originally melodious and melodious, but with these two claps, it suddenly became bright and lively. A clear bell rang outside the tent. Two teams of women wearing embroidered curled hats and purple thin shirts walked in gracefully. The ringing sound actually came from the strings of golden bells under the brim of the hats. The purple skirts were tied low, but the Luo shirts only reached The waist and under the shirt are decorated with thin silver vine flowers, and the slender and soft waist is looming.

Three drums sounded, and the two groups of dancers faced each other and danced gracefully according to the beat. Liuli naturally recognizes that this is the authentic Tuozhi dance, which can be seen in Chang'an, but there are not many people who can dance this soft yet strong style. The dancer's dress and dance style are even more unusual than the ordinary Tuozhi dance. Much more titillating. As soon as the song was about to be danced, the dancers' dance became more and more graceful. The last two drums sounded, and the blouses on their upper bodies were half taken off as if blown off by the strong wind, revealing a piece of snow-white shoulders, and then They each looked back, smiled, leaned over and bowed gently, and then slowly left. Seeing the two Hu Shang opposite her eyes following the dancer all the way out as if they were stuck to the scented shoulders, Liuli wanted to laugh a little. She turned around and saw Pei Xingjian also looking outward. She couldn't help but be slightly startled, and her heart moved slightly. , lowered his eyes and took a sip of wine.

Qu Chongyu glanced around the tent, and the smile on his face became more joyful. He whispered, "The clouds are moving, the golden bells are crisp, and the waist is dancing, and the silver vines are long." His voice became louder, "Everyone, please Fill up the cup before you!"

Pei Xingjian seemed to have come to his senses, and raised his cup with a smile, "At the end of the song, the autumn waves are far away, and the fragrance of violets is still left. Pei has seen this spreading dance several times, but this time it was really eye-opening." "

Qu Chongyu raised his eyebrows and smiled straight into his eyes, "Good sentence! I have heard for a long time that keeping a promise is a literary talent, and it is indeed well-deserved. If you want to come to Xizhou Landscape, it should also be enhanced by keeping a promise!"

Pei Xingjian smiled and shook his head, "How dare you mention the word romantic in front of Yu Lang."

The two of them talked about poetry and poetry, and then talked about the singing and dancing banquets in Chang'an and the scenery of Qujiang. The more they talked, the more speculative they became. Liuli listened quietly, and it seemed that two Tai Chi masters appeared in front of her with graceful postures. You came and went, looking at the graceful and relaxed posture, but no one else could intervene. Feng Piaopiao finally managed to add a few words, but Qu Chongyu turned around and glanced at her with a smile, and then Pointing to the wine glass in front of him, Fengpiaopiao picked it up and drank it, covering his mouth and sitting back.

This banquet lasted for more than an hour. Qu Chongyu smiled first and said, "It's been a hard journey to keep the promise. Although I didn't have all the fun today, it's better to rest early. I won't bother you again tomorrow."

Pei Xingjian thanked him with a smile, and Feng Piaopiao personally sent the two of them to the courtyard where Liuli had just rested. After finally washing up, the maids all retreated, and Liuli looked at him with a smile, "You are singing again. Which one is out?"

Pei Xingjian put his arms around her, pushed back her long hair, and laughed in a low voice, "What? What did I do wrong?"

Well, he does everything well. He is understanding and knowledgeable. He is neither too warm nor too distant. Even towards himself, he behaves like a standard good husband who respects and treats him as a guest. If he is not someone who is very familiar with him, he will naturally look at him. Nothing unusual happened, but... Liuli couldn't help but "hum".

Pei Xingjian's smile deepened, "Did you know that this prince is famous in Chang'an?"

It's a little late today because I revised it again in the morning. I also apologize: tomorrow's article will be posted around 8pm, so don't worry... November, the most difficult month for Alan, is finally over. Amen... Thank you very much. Everyone's understanding.
