The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

Chapter 939: A feast with singing and dancing~ (Thanks to the monthly ticket from the Millennium Peach Tree Spirit~)

No matter what Emperor Wu was thinking in his heart, at this moment she was smiling and raising her glass to invite everyone to drink together.

Out of caution, Li Sanniang raised the glass to her lips like everyone else, and there was indeed fine wine in the glass, but she only smelled the scent and did not touch it at all.

It’s not that she was afraid that the wine was poisonous. Even if it was really poisonous, Li Sanniang’s five senses were extremely sensitive and she would have discovered it in the first place.

I didn't drink the wine, but only ate some food with chopsticks, simply because I was afraid of the inconvenience of changing clothes in such an occasion, and I was also afraid of drinking too much and making a fool of myself.

As a female official, this is something you must be very careful about.

Apart from this huge stone, the gifts offered as tribute by the vassal states were rather unremarkable.

When Emperor Wu said, "Let's begin the feast," the musicians changed the music. Li Sanniang didn't know where the dancers came from in the hall. Anyway, after the music started, in the blink of an eye, dozens of dancers in beautiful dance dresses appeared on the stage.

Li Sanniang watched it with great interest. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "I have made it big. I can even watch a song and dance performance in the Taiji Hall."

The dance lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Although the dancers were indeed graceful and beautiful, Li Sanniang, as a girl, did not find it amazing.

As a result, just as she picked up a piece of venison with chopsticks and put it to her mouth, she heard the eunuch beside her say, "It's the young man from Minister Pei's family who is doing the sword dance. I've heard that this young man Pei is famous for his talent."

"You heard it wrong. Pei Xiaolang was indeed among the people reported by the palace attendant. However, Pei Xiaolang was just accompanying his brother in music. The people dancing with swords were Pei Dalang and Xiao Sheng."

"Oh? Xiao Sheng?
That young star of the Xiao family?
Is he the young general whose legs were sealed by the female doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau?"

Hearing this, Li Sanniang put down her chopsticks, turned around and smiled at the official who mentioned her.

Although the young official felt embarrassed for being caught telling jokes behind someone's back, he was generous after being stunned for a moment. When he saw Li Sanniang looking at him, he bowed to her and smiled.

The leg of Xiao Sheng, the young general of the Xiao family, was indeed cured by Li Sanniang. When mentioning this matter, we have to talk about the assassination that Li Sanniang encountered - the smallpox poisoning case, which was the crime committed by the son of Princess Nanping.

Before Li Sanniang could think about it, the sound of a pipa, like pearls falling on a jade plate, rang in her ears.

Li Sanniang sat up straight and looked towards the center of the hall, and saw a man in an indigo round-necked robe holding a pipa and playing it. The sound of the pipa lasted for a while, and then two men with tied hair and wearing narrow-sleeved martial arts uniforms came out with swords in their hands.

The man in the red skirt should be Pei Dalang, because the man in the black skirt is none other than Xiao Sheng, the young star of the Xiao family who was rescued by Li Sanniang.

Men's dance and women's dance have completely different beauty. It was the first time for Li Sanniang to see a sword dance. Just from the opening move, Li Sanniang felt that the hands were full of power.

This pipa music was played just right, and every time the two performed sword dances against each other, one could feel the tension in the music.

The sword dance, which lasted only a quarter of an hour, was a feast for the eyes!

Even the Emperor Wu, who was sitting on a high throne, couldn't help but say it was good, and when it came to Li Sanniang, she said: "The Saint is very pleased, reward!"

Although Li Sanniang had an inexplicable mysterious feeling when she first met Emperor Wu, her chest was swollen and her heart was beating fast enough.

However, ever since Li Sanniang became an official, even when she had the chance to glance at Emperor Wu from afar, she rarely had such a mysterious feeling.

At this moment, Li Sanniang was more than ten feet away from Emperor Wu. From such a distance, she could not see Emperor Wu's face clearly at all, and could only see his outline.

Li Sanniang stopped thinking about the things she couldn't figure out, and turned to look at the second son of the Pei family and the young star Xiao Sheng of the Xiao family who received the reward from Emperor Wu.

Li Sanniang had naturally figured out some of the clues. The fact that the young general of the Xiao family had great legs must have been rumored all over the place.

However, if I don’t really come out in such a big occasion to show everyone my nice pair of legs, I don’t know what people outside will say?

Moreover, if a military commander wants to establish himself, he must rely on military exploits. So, if he wants to participate in the war, he must let the people above know that you are good and capable of leading troops to fight.

Obviously, judging from the current situation of the Tang Dynasty, it will definitely expand outward in the future. It is obviously a good time for military generals to expand the territory for the Tang Dynasty.

So, at this time, isn't it the best way for Xiao Sheng to perform a sword dance that requires extremely high physical strength and skills to declare that he is strong and determined to fight on the battlefield?

Then there was singing, dancing and some acrobatics, all of which Li Sanniang had never seen before. She was very excited.

While watching these performances, Li Sanniang heard a commotion coming from the Eastern Turkic people in front. She and the official beside her looked at each other, and both of them had a look of "it's finally here" in their eyes.

The Eastern Turks are the most interesting. They are not good at conspiracies or head-on confrontations. Even when facing the Tang Dynasty, they still refuse to submit.

Look, the banquet is almost coming to an end, and they are looking for trouble.

Li Sanniang had no right to know what had happened before, but after waiting for a while, a palace servant came in with a carpet and ribbons.

It turned out that the Great Khan of the Eastern Turks said that this soft song and dance was boring, and it would be better to do something more interesting - a wrestling match.

"Wrestling? A game of strength and skill."

Thinking of this, Li Sanniang looked up ahead. She wanted to see what wrestling was like.

As a result, the Great Khan of Eastern Turkic Khan finally sent the eldest son of an unknown son, while the only person on the Tang side who was of the same age was Li Xian, the eldest son of Prince Xiang.

Li Sanniang looked at Li Xian and then at the little Turkic prince opposite her. She felt that the outcome was fifty-fifty.

As Li Sanniang guessed, Li Xian and the little Turkic prince were evenly matched in the wrestling match. After a long stalemate, the winner could not be determined and the match ended in a draw.

"Emperor Tang, how about this?

Let’s have another fight. The scimitar on my waist is the prize. Whoever wins, I’ll give him this scimitar!”

"Oh?

Then I will use this dagger I carry with me as the prize.

Who here is willing to fight on behalf of the Tang Dynasty?"

The Eastern Turkic side had the greatest warrior under the Great Khan on the scene this time. Li Sanniang saw that the man was at least 1.9 meters tall, with broad arms and a strong waist, like a human bear.

However, even when facing this kind of human bear, the generals on the Tang Dynasty side were all eager to fight.

When Emperor Wu saw this situation, she finally did not let the generals present go out, but instead sent the commander of her guards out.

This commander Li Sanniang really knows her!
It was Commander Xue Yao, whom I had met once before!
Xue Yao was not short, and looked to be over six feet tall. However, his height made him somewhat weaker when facing the Turkic warrior.

However, Li Sanniang didn't think she would definitely lose. After all, wrestling still requires skills.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became enthusiastic. Emperor Wu's personal dagger must be a good thing. It is hard to say whether it can cut through iron like mud, but its symbolic significance is extraordinary.

Moreover, since we are facing the Eastern Turks, the significance would be even greater if we win.

At some point, the sound of war drums rang out in the hall, and the "dong dong dong" beats hit people's hearts.
