Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Luo Youdu looked at Liu Yan and Cheng Ming Jianzuo who were below him with neither laughter nor laughter.

It was actually a very normal thing for this man to dance in ancient times. Usually, when he was drinking and chatting, the sound of dancing and music came together. When he got excited, he found someone who was pleasing to his eyes and said: "Mr., can I invite you to dance to a song?" Then The two big men bouncing around each other, scratching their heads and flirting with each other, is normal communication.

It's just that the banquet is a formal occasion now, and the lowest-ranking officials present are all fifth-rank officials, as well as princes and dukes, and envoys from various countries, all of whom are of status.Who wants to lower their status on such an occasion to please others?

Everyone at the banquet was a little surprised by Liu Yan and Cheng Ming Jianzuo's proposal, but they all looked like they were watching a show.

Luo Youdu took it for granted, it wasn't Cheng Ming Jianzuo, but Liu Yan, a guy who was suffering from persecution hallucinations.

Liu Yu has a very low sense of security, which is also related to having a beast father.His father, Liu Sheng, was abusive and tyrannical, he killed his ministers and younger brothers, and Liu Sheng killed fifteen of his eighteen younger brothers.As the eldest son and the first heir of the Southern Han Dynasty, Liu Yu didn't feel the slightest sense of security in the face of such a beastly father.As a result, he has a little mental problem and always feels that someone will persecute him.

Liu Yu himself was extremely afraid of death, so in order to avoid being persecuted, he chose to sycophant.It's just that Liu Yu, who is big and small, has rich clothes and fine food, later became the emperor, favored eunuchs, and devoted all his attention to persuading others to cut chickens, how could he flatter others?
His flattery is an awkward shot, and he uses the posture of a clown to please Luo Youdu.

The same is true of Liu Yan in history, using various methods to please Zhao Kuangyi.When Li Tao, a historian of the Southern Song Dynasty, compiled the "Continued Zizhi Tongjian Changbian", he gave Liu Wei the word "humorous" very tactfully.

Luo Youdu found Liu Wei's embarrassing filming very interesting at first, but after a long time he found it boring: he didn't have such a bad taste of humiliating others to please himself, and he tried to persuade Liu Ying not to do this, but he was scared enough and thought What he said was ironic, his life was in danger, so he immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Luo Youdu could only persuade and comfort him with kind words.

In order to avoid embarrassment, he decided to have a similar banquet. When the Ministry of Rites finally sent the list, he crossed Liu Yu's list from the list.

As a result, Liu Wei thought too much, fell seriously ill, and delayed the work of the Ministry of Industry.

In the end, forced to do nothing, Luo Youdu allowed Liu Yan to "do something wrong" and laughed awkwardly with him.

Although it was a bit stupid, Liu Yu's hands were indeed exquisite, and no one in the Ministry of Industry could match them.Among the many princes and kings, Liu Yu is the only one who has an actual position, so he deserves to be forgiven.

Luo Youdu looked at Cheng Ming Jianzuo, the former emperor of the Japanese kingdom, with the same flattering expression as Liu Yan, secretly amused, and guessed that the other party was making Liu Yan limping.

However, it is also good to be able to see the dancing posture of the former emperor of Japan.I think that when Li Shimin made the Turkic Jieli Khan dance, it became a good story. If he let the Emperor of Japan dance on his own initiative, he can also leave a mark in history.

Of course, when it comes to identity, the Emperor of Japan is not comparable to Jieli Khan, but it is better than nothing.

A smile appeared on Luo Youdu's face, and he said, "Yes!"

Seeing that Luo Youdu was happy, Liu Yu was very excited, and gave Cheng Ming Jianzuo a wink, signaling him to behave well.

Cheng Ming Jianzuo saw that Luo Youdu was really as Liu Yan said, and Longyan Joy also entered the state. As the music sounded, the Japanese emperor danced gracefully under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Surprisingly, Cheng Ming Jianzuo's dancing skills are very good, and every move is very powerful.

As an emperor with no real power but only political significance, Cheng Ming Jianzuo's mission in Ping'an Jingli was to eat, drink and have fun. He led a group of officials in Ping'an Jingli, but did not ask about government affairs, and was drunk with money.He held grand singing parties in the imperial palace many times in Japan, and he is also proficient in musical instruments such as qin and pipa.Later generations of Wa people called him "the emperor who made Heian culture shine".

This dance is his forte...

The core culture of the Wa country originated from the Tang Dynasty, and their music and dance came from the Yuefu poems of China.It can also be understood by everyone at the banquet who is proficient in Chinese culture.

It is considered top among amateurs, but there is still a big gap with those professional dancers from the Jiaofang Division.

However, Cheng Ming Jian Zuo danced very hard. Being spoiled and pampered, his physical strength is naturally not as good as the dancers of the Jiaofang Division. After a dance, he is already sweating and panting like a cow in the winter. I have to comment: filial piety is commendable .

Luo Youdu took the lead and applauded, but he had a little regret in his heart. It would be great if he had arranged for the court painter to draw this scene in advance. It is a pity that such an exquisite dance of the Emperor of Japan can only be reflected in words.

But he didn't know that among the guests, Gu Hongzhong, a painter who had a good memory and was good at drawing figures, already had the idea of ​​"Dayu Emperor's Night Banquet" in his mind.

History has changed, China's top ten famous paintings handed down from generation to generation "Han Xizai's Night Banquet" is destined to cease to exist, but a new and more precious "Dayu Emperor's Night Banquet" appeared...

It was already a wonderful banquet, but because of the appearance of Liu Yu and Cheng Ming Jianzuo, it added a little more talk.

After offering sacrifices to the Taimiao, the court's focus was to prepare for the relocation to Luoyang.

Luo Youdu said that he was going to Luoyang to celebrate the Lantern Festival, so he would have to live in Luoyang for five or six months. When he comes back, it depends on his mood.When the center of gravity of the imperial court tilted towards Luoyang, the move of the capital was a matter of course.

For moving to Luoyang, the four children who are most excited are Luo Kangrui, Luo Ningsong, Luo Ningbai and Luo Huixiang.

It’s not that the harem has not had a baby in these years. Empress Fu Qing’er gave birth to a daughter named Luo Huizhen, Xianfei Zhe Saihua gave birth to a son Luo Ningchuan, the concubine Zhou Ehuang gave birth to a daughter Luo Huizhu again, and Mrs. Jieyu Huarui was even more successful. A pair of dragon and phoenix twins, namely Luo Ning and Luo Huiyu, even if they don't have any sense of existence, the princess Huang Fuxiu sent by Goryeo in the past gave birth to a son, who has not yet been named.

The follow-up children are all three or four years old, and it is not surprising that they are young and ignorant just now.

But Luo Kangrui, Luo Ningsong, Luo Ningbai, and Luo Huixiang all reached the age of the governor, and they were trapped in the small Bianjing Palace for a long time, longing for the outside world.

On the day of departure, Luo Ningsong, Luo Ningbai, and Luo Huixiang were as happy as runaway colts, jumping around the carriage, shouting "Go to Luoyang, go to Luoyang!"

The two boys, Luo Ningsong and Luo Ningbai, are as strong as tigers, and this is also related to the education that Zhe Saihua has come into contact with.

Zhe Saihua was born in the borderland of Fugu, a woman who works as a farmer and a man to fight, and Fugu Erlang started to lay the foundation for martial arts almost as soon as he could run and dance.

Back then, Fu Qing'er used the old Fu family's method to educate Luo Kangrui, which made Luo Youdu feel distressed for a while. Luo Youdu couldn't bear to watch Zhe Saihua directly go to the old Zhe family's education method.More than once, he saw Zhesaihuati pick up his son like a chick, and punched his ass.

It is said that a loving mother often loses children, but the two daughters-in-law of his family forced him to become a loving father.

However, it is also because of being strict since childhood, Luo Kangrui, Luo Ningsong, and Luo Ningbai all have good conduct. , Luo Ningbai skin is a bit skinny, but it is not the kind of lawlessness of a bear child, who knows how to measure.

"Erlang, Sanlang! Don't run too fast, or you may fall!" As the eldest son, Luo Kangrui took on the responsibility of disciplining his younger siblings.

Luo Ningsong and Luo Ningbo paused, and saw that Luo Huixiang had already caught up with him on his short legs.The former shouted: "Don't worry, brother, we will be fine."

As he spoke, he tumbled into the carriage, and then jumped off from the other side of the carriage.

Luo Ningbai, a young Luo Ningsong, did not have this ability yet, but he was also agile. He climbed into the carriage with both hands and feet, and climbed down from the other side.

Luo Huixiang, who ran behind, was about the same age as Luo Ningsong, and wanted to follow the example of his two elder brothers in climbing the carriage.But she has been supported by Zhou Ehuangfu, and women are not as strong and flexible as men. How can they climb up, the upper body is hung on the car, and the short legs are floating in the air, dangling, unable to get up and down, My eyes were red with anxiety.

Suddenly his body lightened, and a force came from behind. Luo Huixiang hurriedly used his strength to climb into the carriage, but when he looked back, it was his elder brother Luo Kangrui, and said with a smile: "Thank you, brother!"

Luo Kangrui smiled amiably, and then said sullenly, "Come here."

The faces of Luo Ningbai and Luo Ningsong changed slightly, and they came to the vicinity with a bit of timidity, and called out: "Brother!"

Luo Kangrui taught his two younger brothers an old-fashioned way: "The three of you play together, don't worry about yourself, how can the third sister have your skills..."

Looking at this scene, Fu Qing'er said jokingly: "Chou Chou is more majestic than your father..."

Luo Youdu smiled and said: "No, these two boys are not so honest in front of me."

The eldest brother is like a father. Luo Kangrui is already old and has blood pressure. If he doesn't like it, he slaps his younger brother a few times. How can the two boys dare to fight back?
On the contrary, Luo Youdu sees that the two of them are often taught by their mother and elder brother, and they feel distressed to play the face of a loving father, not to be feared, and of course they get closer.

Not far away, Xiao Chuo came slowly with the help of Mr. Hu: Luo Youdu plans to live in Luoyang for the first half of the year, so naturally he can't leave Mr. Hu alone in Bianjing, and take him to Luoyang together.

As for Xiao Chuo, who was also on the same team, Xiao Hunian had already returned to Monan from Mongolia, handed over the military affairs of Mobei to Xiao Shululie, and she withdrew the gathered Xiao family department to Zhangjiakou.Xiao Hunian also knew that this time he went south, there would be no chance to go north to see the clansmen who followed him in the war, and entrusted the clan tribe to Xiao Talin to deal with the aftermath, which also delayed the return time.

Luo Youdu had already sent a letter asking her to go directly to Luoyang, and Xiao Chuo naturally went with her.

The little girl was wrapped in a pink padded jacket, her pink face was flushed from the cold, she couldn't see the slightest breath of Khitan people on her body, but she looked like Xiaojiabiyu, but her eyes were dodging, and she looked guilty...
