Chapter 216 Palace Banquet (Thanks to book friend 20220622081706076 for the monthly ticket~)

Seeing such an appearance of Emperor Wu on the imperial city tower, he felt a little moved in his heart.

Emperor Wu raised his hand to press it, and waited for the sound to fade away, and said a few words: "It is my fortune to be able to receive gifts from the ten elders today, and it is the fortune of the Tang Dynasty! On my birthday, I have fun with the people, and the curfew is suspended today for one day." day."

After finishing speaking, Emperor Wu looked at the cheering crowd below, raised the corner of his mouth and quickly put it down.

Wearing such a very heavy crown dress, yes, I have to go back to Taiji Palace, and there is a palace banquet that must be attended by Emperor Wu.

When the people around Zhuque Square heard that there is no curfew today, they were very happy!

Before everyone exchanged information, when was the most interesting place in Chang'an City, Lang Guan stood on the high platform and said loudly: "Tonight at Xu (xū) (19:00), there will be fireworks throughout the entire imperial city. Have fun with the people."

"Hey, this is even more interesting than during the Lantern Festival."

"It's still not close. During the Lantern Festival, there was no curfew for three days."

"Haha, brother, you know, how about it, let's go to the Xishi circus troupe today?"

"Hey, brother understands me, I heard that there is a new bear cub."

With the flow of people gathering and dispersing tonight, the news of no curfew spread around Zhuque Square at a very fast speed, until Li Sanniang, who was talking with Li's father and mother in the main hall of her house, listened to the front hall janitor. Li Gui came in and talked about this matter.

"There really is no curfew tonight!"

The second brother Li said happily, then turned to look at Father Li and said, "Aye, let's close the door in the afternoon, and let Li Gui and his family go to have fun. Let's go to the West Market for a while. Last time, Qiuniang and Tuva Didn't you say that they have a lot of new tricks? Let's go and see it together as a family?"

Behind the second brother Li, from Li Dalang to Xiao Shiro, four pairs of eyes stared at Father Li with longing.

Especially Xiao Shilang, like a searchlight, wished he could set Father Li on fire.

Father Li knew how to be tricky, and instead of answering directly, he stroked his beard.

"Aye?" Li Sanniang also wanted to go out to play, and the Shangyuan Festival was still more than three months away, so it was the best to be able to play now.

Li's mother patted Li's father, but couldn't understand how he "bullied" the child with Joe.

"Haha, haha, well, let's all go to the West Market for a stroll, and dinner will be eaten outside."

At this time, only Li Dalang was left with a conscience, and Li Dalang was also happy, but he still remembered his own Aye: "Oh, Aye will never come back."

Mrs. Li didn't think there was anything wrong, she had been used to this kind of reunion for so many years, so she couldn't live with Brother Li.

"It's okay, if there is something delicious, let's buy an extra serving and leave it to you later, Aye."

When the members of the Li family were still discussing about going to the West Market to see what to eat, buy, and play, Emperor Wu changed his clothes again with the help of Wang Dadang.

There must be more than ten pieces of heavy crown clothes. As a person who gets up early every day, can run around the main hall square twice, and can punch for a quarter of an hour, Emperor Wu can't bear it.

It's really thick and heavy, and it's not breathable.

Apart from good looks and majesty, there is really no advantage.

Changing into a black dress with dark patterns again, the crown was also changed, and he only wore a golden jewel-encrusted crown to tie his hair. Only then did Emperor Wu feel relaxed.

Bringing back the sword and crossbow arrows, Emperor Wu went to Tai Chi Palace.

Emperor Wu's birthday banquet was held in a hall in the Taiji Palace. Officials, princes and nobles, and tribes from small countries had already been seated one by one according to their ranks, and only waited for Emperor Wu himself.

According to the procedure planned by the Ministry of Rites, Emperor Wu made his debut at the end, and said a few words on the scene, it was time to present a gift to Emperor Wu.

First, Xiang Wang came out with a hundred characters of longevity written by himself in different fonts, and then Princess Taiping embroidered an embroidery of longevity that is not as old as Nanshan.

Next, the gifts from the princes and nobles are nothing more than strange stones and treasures, and the tasteful ones are calligraphy, brushes, inkstones and so on.

But when it comes to the small countries and tribes, this gift is considered worthwhile.

For example, the envoys of the Eastern Turkic tribe who had just had a Turkic rebellion a few months ago said that they would present [-] tall horses to Emperor Wu, of which [-] were male horses that had not been castrated (qiāo, castrated).

Of course, the horse is still on the road now, it depends on how Emperor Wu decides to allocate it, and then it will pass.

Emperor Wu nodded and said a few polite words, but what he thought in his heart was, well, they are afraid, and they know how to please me.

As for the newly supported Xiao Wang in Goguryeo, in addition to some special gifts, there is also a letter written by himself.

Wang Dadang took the tray and presented the letter sent by the Goguryeo envoy all the way. Emperor Wu opened it up and saw the address at the beginning, which made her think it was a thunder.

I don't know who Xiao Wang listened to, but the birthday letter to Emperor Wu began with "My emperor's letter is good, my brother worships you"

Today is the fiftieth birthday of Emperor Wu, and the little Wang who is far away overseas is only eight years old this year, so he will be the great-grandson of Emperor Wu.

Emperor Wu was embarrassed for a moment, and read it at a glance. The letter was written at a certain level, and there must be a minister sent by Emperor Wu to teach it.

At the beginning, I said hello and wished him a birthday. In the middle, I said what gift I gave, and at the end, I added that the surrounding Baekje and Silla were a little restless and bullied him.

It is very good to make small reports to neighboring countries by celebrating birthdays, and this is what we want.

After reading the letter, Emperor Wu nodded, indicating that he understood, next one.

Annan's envoy was no longer the one who defecated in the big camp on the outskirts of Beijing in the morning, but a younger one.

Of course, after singing the praises, the local specialties were presented, but the emissary added, "Sage Shangbing, my king still has a piece of minerals to dedicate to the saint. May the saint live forever."

Hehe, I don’t know if others have slandered Emperor Wu, but she herself has slandered. If they hadn’t been scared by the black powder blasting the mountain in the morning, the mine probably wouldn’t have been added to the gift at this time.

The next step is to watch a song and dance performance.

The Ministry of Rites is pretty good at it. Emperor Wu thought that the girls would go up to perform first, but he didn't expect that the Ministry of Rites had a lot of fun.

A group of men with an average height of six feet (180cm) went on stage to perform martial arts. Emperor Wu looked at it from above. It was a real fight, punching to the flesh.

It's not the sound of silk and bamboo in my ears, but the beating of military drums.

After this battle, the sweat of the brawny men has soaked the thin clothes on their bodies, and the appearance of the muscles under the clothes is quite interesting.

The opening was quite good, the Minister of Rites was sitting on the seat below, he quietly looked up, seeing the satisfied expression on Emperor Wu's face, he felt relieved.

Heh, for a group of people who don't understand the heart of women, the Minister of Rites is very proud of him.

The beginning of this strong man's performance of martial arts was his strong request to be the first to perform. No matter how old Emperor Wu was, she was still a girl. There is no girl who doesn't like to watch men, let alone young men with good figure.

These men were specially borrowed from the Jinwu Guard, and the next one would be Jiaofangsi's home court.

The screen was removed, and a group of more than ten palace people waited aside with various musical instruments, and then nine women in light clothes appeared on the stage.

  Who doesn't like to see a man with a good figure?
