Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 724 Another Palace Banquet
It's getting closer and closer to New Year's Eve.

Chang'an is more lively and prosperous than last year.

For many people, the big palace banquet has almost become a carnival at the end of the year.

The tickets for the band were sold out, and there were still a lot of people wanting tickets. This situation was unexpected by Qin Tian.

He thought that Li Yuanjing was just an inconspicuous prince among the many princes. What kind of program could he organize for things like the Lefang Palace Banquet?

But what Qin Tian didn't expect was that although Li Yuanjing didn't have much new ideas, he caught the nostalgic psychology of many people and invited many artists who had caused a sensation in Chang'an so many years ago.

In this way, many people are naturally willing to buy tickets in order to witness those people again.

This is the same as many celebrities in later generations who frequently appear on various programs after their age is gone. The program group is playing with one feeling.

Qin Tian felt very surprised by this situation. Apart from the accident, Li Shimin was delighted, because this year's tickets were a little more expensive than last year's, and because the standing tickets were sold, the number of people this year was also more than last year. a lot.

These are all money.

Li Shimin was going crazy with joy.

And just when the people and officials in Chang'an were excited and looking forward to it, the New Year's Eve finally arrived.

On this day, just after dusk, the dignitaries who bought the tickets had already rushed to the music square one after another, and when they came, there were already many, many common people standing outside the music square. The road in front of Fangmen was blocked.

Of course, they didn't come to see these dignitaries. They just wanted to see Gongsun Shisanniang and Mr. Xiao. Even if they couldn't go in to watch their performances, being able to see them was enough to make these people feel a sense of anxiety in their hearts. Have fun.

The wind is bitter, the weather is gloomy, and it looks like it will snow again tonight.

But these weather did not affect everyone's enthusiasm.

When the dignitaries arrived, Gongsun Shisanniang rushed over in a carriage. As soon as he arrived, someone shouted: "Gongsun Shisanniang is here!"

With this cry, the people on the street rushed over immediately, almost swarming Gongsun Shisanniang's carriage. If a few guards hadn't stepped forward to stop her, some people would have dared to rush over.

Under the protection of the guards, Gongsun Shisanniang finally dared to get out of the carriage, and he didn't seem to have thought that after so many years, he could still be so popular. When she got off the carriage, her cheeks were flushed.

However, with the arrival of Gongsun Shisanniang, another person got out of her carriage. This person is not very old, only in his twenties. He is beautiful, stunning, and even gives people a cold look Feel.

She is the disciple of Gongsun Shisanniang, Xu Erniang.

After Xu Erniang came down, the people couldn't help cheering and discussing again.

"This Xu Erniang is really beautiful, she has the temperament of Gongsun Shisanniang back then."

"Hehe, what do you mean to say, isn't Gongsun Shisanniang beautiful now?"

"I didn't say that. The current Gongsun Shisanniang is always a bit older, but that kind of charm is not comparable to that of young women. I am not afraid of jokes. I really like this old man."

"Bah, shameless..."

The appearance of every expert will cause a commotion in front of the music hall. Although these ordinary people did not go in to watch the performance, each of them is also excited, as if they can't sleep again tonight.

And as time passed, the palace banquet was finally about to begin.

Inside the music hall, there was a bit of a crowd, like a sea of ​​people, whether they were standing or sitting, they were all talking non-stop. The whole music hall was a bit noisy. On the viewing platform on the second floor, Li Shimin, Li Yuan, and the concubines in the harem were talking about everything. exist.

Seeing this situation, Li Shimin was also a little excited.

"Father, this year may be even more exciting than last year." Li Shimin said to Li Yuan, and Li Yuan nodded when he saw this situation: "It looks like it is, I wonder when Gongsun Shisanniang will appear?"

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan had the honor to watch a sword dance by Gongsun Shisanniang. So far, he still has some fresh memories. As he gets older, it is inevitable to be nostalgic. He wants to see Gongsun Shisanniang dance sword again. .

Here, Li Shimin said: "Father wants to see it, so I'll let him play first, how about it?"

Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "Forget it, it's better not to destroy Yuan Jing's plan, Father thinks it's okay to wait, I haven't felt like this for a long time."

It's really good to see Gongsun Shisanniang as soon as I come up, but the excitement of waiting will be gone, but Li Yuan now enjoys this waiting time very much.

It seems that I have become young again, and I am full of passion for many things in the world.

Seeing this, Li Shimin didn't say anything, he could only agree.

And next to the royal family, there are Qin Tian and other relatives of the royal family. This year's tickets are in short supply. It is very difficult to buy tickets. Even Qin Tian failed to grab a ticket. However, the royal relatives do not need tickets. They are all allowed to enter, so Qin Tian and Tang Rong have been honored by the Ninth Princess this time, and they also came to the second floor as they wished.

Of course, Qin Tian wanted to come in, it was just a matter of one sentence.

Just when everyone was talking like this, the palace banquet finally started.

And the first program of this year's palace banquet is still "The Song of King Qin Breaking the Battle". The dance and music are really brilliant, and they are the most exciting, so Li Yuanjing didn't remove it, but kept it.

This is originally a dance song to praise Li Shimin's merits. If it is cancelled, it would be a bit too bad, and it is true. When Li Shimin saw this dance song, he still couldn't help being excited for a while, which made him think of Back then, the days of gold and iron horses.

"Okay, okay!"

Li Shimin didn't say much, just said these three words, but when these three words were passed down, Li Yuanjing's heart was already full of joy.

The show went on like this, until Gongsun Shisanniang finally came to the stage after other people performed three shows.

Gongsun Shisanniang, who was almost forty, seemed to be a little old. After Li Yuan saw him, he was taken aback for a moment, and then sighed softly: "I'm old."

Time will not stand still for anyone.

In Li Yuan's mind, Gongsun Shisanniang was supposed to be a beautiful young woman, but when she suddenly saw Gongsun Shisanniang who was already late, she couldn't help feeling a little sad and lost in her heart. Why did the beauty of the past suddenly grow old?
In his heart, he didn't like it a little bit, or he didn't like Gongsun Shisanniang so much anymore.

Men, don't they all like young people?
