"Everyone wants to see you, so come forward."

The queen's eyes landed on the Lu family's table accurately, and Lu Weimang felt at ease when he saw the queen's eyes across the tables of nobles.Before she entered the palace, she just didn't want to socialize with the crowd, but now that she was singled out on such an occasion, she had nothing to be afraid of.

Lu Weimang got up abruptly, walked forward a few steps, and bowed in front of the emperor and empress, "Your Majesty and Your Majesty have a happy holiday."

"Why are you wearing this mouse gray color today? It's so dusty, it's not as good-looking as your green official robe." The queen frowned first and said.

Lu Weimang smiled wryly, "Just trying on a new color, this mouse gray is quite interesting."

"Your taste is different from other people's." The empress had a delicate mind, how could she not know her intentions, so she joked.

When the two monarchs and ministers spoke, they were very relaxed and natural, which made everyone present a little puzzled.They are all close friends of the queen. I haven't heard that the queen has had much contact with the little girl on weekdays. How can they be so close?

"Don't you want to meet Lu Weimang? Someone is here. Weimang, go and meet Princess Shun'an."

Lu Weimang turned around and saluted, "I've seen the princess."

The princess looked downcast, as if she was very kind.But this has nothing to do with Lu Weimang, she is not going to have a relationship with some people she doesn't see every day, so she won't bother to think about others, just do what she should do, and don't be rude.

"You don't need to be too polite, I've also heard a few little girls talk about you. They spend all day in the inner house, and most of them go out to dinner at the little sister's house. They are very envious of Miss Lu, who can move freely and share the worries of His Majesty. Miss Lu, I heard that you went to Shu County with Yuan Bai a few days ago. Everyone said that the road to Shu is difficult, and a woman like Miss Lu can enter Shu. She is indeed a student of the Imperial College handpicked by His Majesty, and she is better than ordinary men."

With a solemn face, Lu Weimang replied very seriously, "Your Majesty has a broad heart, and General Huo is generous, so that he will not dislike Weimang's burden and give the minister the opportunity to serve the country."

"Hehe, this Miss Lu is different after all. She serves the country openly and silently, unlike our housewives, who only know about one-third of an acre of land in their own house." The Shun'an princess put on a handkerchief, and the lady who was sitting close to her They said this.

Lu Weimang didn't seem to understand the words, just bowed his head, but his mouth was closed like a clam shell and he didn't speak.

Seeing Princess Shunying's words fell on the ground, the princess's face darkened, and someone with a clear mind immediately answered, "When the princess was young, she followed the empress to take care of the rear for His Majesty. This matter is still in our ears. , why are you humbled now. You say that, how do we people deal with ourselves?"

The princess's complexion improved, "Hey, the hero doesn't mention his bravery back then. Besides, the empress was in charge of the overall situation back then, and we were just helping hands."

The empress was involved in the words, and everyone spoke up one after another, praising the empress for her talents.

For a while, the banquet was full of excitement.That's right, isn't this palace banquet just for everyone to enjoy themselves.

The queen smiled without saying a word, listening to everyone's words.

After a while of praise, the queen said, "You are too lazy, ask a question, answer a question, you have to be familiar with it before you can say something nice. Don't you know that this temperament will offend people?"

Lu Weimang hurriedly bowed and lowered his head, "Wei Chen is really stupid, it spoiled everyone's interest."

"Okay, since I know I'm spoiling the fun, I'll punish you to perform a show. Just now, there were sword dancers, piano players, and singing and dancing dancers. You can't repeat the same, but you have to perform better, or you won't count."

The queen's words gave Lu Weimang a headache. She doesn't have any talents, she just watches.

Lu Weimang looked at the Empress Empress, wanting her to let her go.Unexpectedly, although the Empress Empress had a smile on her lips, her gaze was firm.I'm afraid that the queen was angry because of his stubborn appearance just now. This is to punish himself deliberately, and it is also to give himself a chance to show his sincerity.

Lu Weimang thought for a while, and asked for a drum from the little yellow gate beside him.big drum.

Ashamed to say, she was a pure social cow when she was a child, and never knew how to look at other people's eyes.At that time, my hometown held sacrifices to the gods every May, which was the most important event in the village.Most of the women were doing Yangko, but Lu Weimang was attracted by the rhythmic drums.

It seems that the drum sound does not need to be learned, and the rhythm is simple and easy to learn. After listening to it for a long time, Lu Weimang secretly got the drumsticks when the drummer was exhausted and rested, and imitated the drummer's rhythm, hitting the drum one by one.

Seeing her as a little girl beating the drums, the people in the village also booed and applauded, so Lu Weimang beat more and more vigorously, no longer the weak and tentative look at the beginning, but the more firm the sound, the more powerful the more he beat. Attractive, the Yangko team also jumped up to Lu Weimang's drumbeat.

Since then, Lu Weimang has become the imperial drummer for sacrificial activities in the village, playing drums in rotation with another person.Later, after the village did not allow burning incense and offering sacrifices, Lu Weimang stepped down from his job as a drummer.

But the rhythm of the sacrificial dance was engraved in her blood, and she never forgot it for a moment.

The rhythm of the drum was clear and powerful. When the drum was beating vigorously, standing next to the drum, it seemed that the heart was beating with the drum, as if a certain gene in the blood was awakened.The harder you beat the drum, the more obvious this beating of the heart is, and the stronger the feeling of being aroused.

Spring plowing and autumn harvesting have rituals of sacrifice.

Dance with drums to please the gods.

Drums, a musical instrument, seem to have a special ability from birth.

At this time, Lu Weimang was standing in the open space in the center of the banquet, holding the drumsticks with both hands, and lowered his head to think about the rhythm of the drum beating in his previous life.At the beginning, I was a little tentative, but then it seemed that my memory came back to me when I was drumming wantonly when I was a child.

Lu Weimang is born with supernatural power, which is perfect for drumming.This drum is like this. If your heart is weak, your hands will be weak, and the drum will be weak. If your heart is firm, and you are determined to strike, the drum will be firm.

As if it could make the earth tremble with the sound of the drum, Lu Weimang seemed to be ignited by the drum sound, and the more he beat, the harder he hit, and the harder he hit the center of the drum.Anyone who has beaten the drum hard knows that although the sound at the edge of the drum is loud, it is crisp, and the sound at the center of the drum makes people feel the powerful muffled sound trembling from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing Lu Weimang knocking more and more smoothly like that, the strong rhythm of worshiping the gods stirred in everyone's hearts.

Some military generals with open hearts got up and danced with them, and some civil servants with open hearts accompanied the rhythm and prayed to the sky.

At this time, there is a festival for the Hero Sacrifice every year, and almost everyone can dance the sacrificial dance.Therefore, more and more people joined this rhythm, dancing to Lu Weimang's drumming, some movements were open and closed, powerful, and some were delicate and expressive.

Lu Weimang also used [-]% of his strength to echo the dance of the crowd.The atmosphere was spreading, and Lu Weimang was also infected.

As Lu Weimang exerted more force, the sound of the drum seemed to hit people's hearts. The lady who was still sitting covered her heart, and there seemed to be something beating there, and the flesh on her face seemed to tremble with the sound of the drum. Prove it's not an illusion.

When the drum was the most intense and the rhythm was the fastest, Lu Weimang stopped suddenly and pressed the drum head.The shocking voice just stopped suddenly, making people feel empty.Then I felt an indescribable comfort in my heart, as if I had been baptized just now.

Forming a circle around Lu Weimang, the crowd who followed the dance also stopped, looked at each other, and laughed.

They are all partners who follow to fight the world. The moment just now seemed to remind them of the days when they had no grievances and just worked together to defeat the powerful enemy in front of them.

Everyone laughed and approached each other, patted the old man on the shoulder, feeling indescribably bright and happy in their hearts.The emperor was also very excited at this time, yelling for the palace servants to serve wine and a big bowl, and to have a heroic bowl with these brothers who followed him to fight the world.

At this time, the protagonist of this banquet is no longer who is performing, who is speaking slickly and amusingly at this banquet, but His Majesty and many brothers.

Lu Weimang retired and returned to his seat silently.

Lu Qingshan's heart was also ups and downs at this time, and he wanted to pat the emperor on the shoulder and drink a bowl of wine together, but fortunately he still had his senses, "You really deserve to be our daughter. When I was young, I only took you to the temple fair in the county town. You can play the drums, great!"

The corners of Lu Weimang's mouth twitched, the drums were beating in rhythm, exciting.At this time, Father Lu must have made a mistake.Although there is also a rhythmic drum sound at the temple fair, the rhythm should be different from the rhythm I played.

But that's good too, her skill of drumming can be regarded as having a history.

The powerful men drank together, and the women nodded with a smile.Someone seemed unwilling and wanted to stand up and say something, but was pushed down by the ladies on the field. It was not suitable to speak at this time, but only suitable to express the surging emotions in their hearts.

The queen's eyes were also shining, and she looked in Lu Weimang's direction.Lu Weimang seemed to have a feeling, looked over, and saw the Queen nodded slightly towards him, and Lu Weimang also nodded in response.

An unusual and relatively ordinary palace banquet that happens every year ends.This year's Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet seemed to be particularly intoxicating. The servants waiting at the gate of the palace stepped forward to meet their masters. Almost every male master was drunk, and even called for friends and companions, saying that they would meet again at another day.

The queen helped His Majesty back to the palace, and all the dignitaries also went home. Lu Weimang and his father went out of the palace late, and when everyone was almost gone, he led his own horse and blew a little. The chilly autumn wind walks back.

"The wind is so comfortable."

Father Lu drank some wine, his body was a little hot, and the cold autumn wind was blowing, he just felt that he couldn't be happier.

Lu Weimang also had a drink later, the atmosphere was so good, everyone was talking and laughing, drinking and dancing, the atmosphere was confusing, she also had a drink.

Lu Weimang, who has always been a bad drinker, also felt comfortable at this time, her heart was clear and her nerves were relaxed, she just thought it was no wonder Li Baidou's hundred poems on wine, at this moment, she also felt that she seemed to be able to go to heaven.

"Girl, go straight, you're about to hit a tree."

"Really?" Lu Weimang collected himself, and when he realized his mistake, he changed his mind and turned in another direction.

"There are pillars over there, it might as well hit a tree."

"I know."
