Chapter 81 Who dares to be the hero
The night is getting deeper and deeper, and the freezing north wind is roaring. In the days when dripping water becomes ice, it is a great pleasure in life to call friends, cook a pot of good meat on a hot fire, and then have a high-quality Jiannan spring.
Everyone made an appointment. Tonight, if you don't talk about national affairs, it has nothing to do with the wind and the moon. If you forget your kindness and hatred, you will forget your worries, and ask for a rest!
Xiao Linglong, who put ointment wrapped in gauze on her right hand, drank a whole bowl of hot wine, put the wine bowl on the table, reached out and wiped her mouth with the gauze, and laughed loudly, "Okay, I'm willing to bet! - I'll dance!"
"Good!!" Everyone cheered.
Khitan is a nation that can sing and dance well and doesn't know what twisted Ni is. A princess like Xiao Linglong will never retreat when she needs to sing and dance.
"Who plays music?" Xiao Linglong stood up generously and asked in the hall.
Everyone looked at Chu Tianya at the same time.
Chu Tianya smiled dryly, "I don't understand the rhythm."
"No one asked you!" Xiao Linglong smiled and said, "Fourth brother, come on!"
"But there is no instrument here?" Everyone is humane.
"It doesn't matter." Bai Xun took a few wine bowls with a smile, poured different shades of wine in each bowl, knocked a few times with chopsticks as a tuning, and then said, "Let's start!"
Xiao Linglong smiled and held up a flower finger with one hand and the other hand.
Everyone's eyes lit up. Xiao Linglong, who usually walks like a man, is so soft and charming!
"Ding Ding Dong Dong", Bai Xun knocked on the wine bowl, and it was extremely rhythmic.
Xiao Linglong dances with the rhythm, and her dancing posture is light and neat, just like a flying fox like a rabbit, with a strong sense of rhythm. The unrestrained and heroic feelings of the grassland nation are vividly expressed, but without losing the softness and enchanting unique to women.
Everyone applauded loudly, which was an eye-opener!
I didn't expect that Xiao Linglong, who was obsessed with Gongma's outstanding martial arts, could dance so beautifully.
Meng De put his elbow against Chu Tianya, "Brother, if you are not sure about such a daughter-in-law, the brother will not let you go!"
Chu Tianya picked up the wine bowl and touched him. He smiled and said, "If it's not a hero in the world, he is not worthy of Princess Xiao. Brother, what can I do?
"Yes, it is not surprising if it is just an outstanding appearance; but Princess Xiao is indeed a rare strange woman in the world, integrating appearance, wisdom and righteousness. Such a woman is not a person's best match. Meng De hit the wine bowl against Chu Tianya's bowl, and half of the wine overflowed. "But I want to say, who dares to be the hero in ten years except my brother?"
The two brothers drank a full glass of hot wine and laughed happily.
He Bo peeled the peanuts aside, squinted at him drinking and chatting, and secretly smiling.
"Godfather, what are you laughing at? Is the princess's dance so beautiful?" Xiao Ai asked in a low voice as he added wine to him.
"The old man is dreaming! After a good dream, I laughed. Uncle He said with a smile.
"Aren't you asleep yet? Why are you dreaming?" Xiao Ai said with a smile.
"It's beautiful to dream with your eyes open!" Uncle He sighed and said, "If only the young master and Princess Xiao get married one day, and the old man could still drink their wedding wine and see the young lady dancing like today!"
"I'm sure you can!" Xiao Ai hit Uncle He on the shoulder with a smile, "Xiao Ai is filial to his adoptive father every day and let his adoptive father live to be 200 years old!"
"That's not refined, hey hey!" He Bo smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into a crack, revealing a look full of longing and attachment.
At this time, Xiao Linglong in the hall danced more and more wonderfully, and the dance steps were also changed from the beginning to rotation. Bai Xun, who knocked on the wine bowl to play music, said, "Shicai's little sister dances the 'step on the ground' of the Khitan people. Now it's a rotary dance. Look carefully, this is not a dance step that ordinary dancers can dance!"
Xiao Linglong had already drunk a lot of wine. After half a dance, her face was crimson, and she was extremely charming. At this time, the body is rotated, which is really as dazzling as the wind.
Everyone was stunned and stood up and applauded loudly.
Just a song, Xiao Linglong stopped and smiled happily, "I haven't been so happy for a long time!"
Chu Tianya breathed a sigh of relief with a smile on his face. Yes, this is the brightest and most happy smile he has seen since he met Xiao Linglong.
"Come on, keep playing!" Xiao Linglong sat at the wine table, grabbed a handful of dice, rolled up her sleeves and laughed, "If I win this time, I want you all to dance and show me!"
"Sister, you have no chance of winning." Bai He smiled and said, "You have never played this thing, and everyone else present is proficient in it."
"That's okay! It's just a loss. I'm willing to lose the bet!" Xiao Linglong closed the dice and shook it. She shook it and laughed, "But if I win, there will be a good show! - What, you old men, don't you dare to gamble with me?"
"Who said that!" Chu Tianya and others could not stand such excitement, so they all gathered around, and a group of gamblers shouted and gambled.
He Bo sat aside and smiled, "I cleaned up Ye Lv with my own hands, which finally made the girl feel a little happy, and then she gradually became cheerful. Let me tell you, the old man's vision can't be wrong. As long as she opens her heart, she is the most likable girl in the world.
"Yes! Princess Xiao is beautiful and noble, and she is so generous. Although I'm a woman, I can't help liking her. Xiao Ai whispered, "She and Brother Chu really match..."
He Bo narrowed his eyes and glanced at Xiao Ai. He smiled, "Same, you're also good."
There is a warmth in the hot room, the wine and meat are fragrant, and everyone is having fun. But I heard the door of the yard being patted.
Everyone suddenly stagnated, "Who will visit at this time?"
"I'll go and have a look." Uncle He got up, went out with a lantern to answer the door, and welcomed two uninvited guests.
When both of them entered the door, they wore black cloaks to cover their faces, and there were small snowflakes on their bodies.
"Is it snowing?" Chu Tianya couldn't help but change his expression slightly and said to himself: How fast the snow is coming!
"Yes, it's snowing. We don't have much time!" An old but majestic voice sounded, and the two guests took off their cloaks and hoods. It turned out to be Wang and his son.
"Master!" Chu Tianya hurried forward to salute.
"You are all here!" Wang Yu looked around the people in the room and began to look quite serious. He glanced at the wine and gambling tools on the table, but laughed, "There is wine, meat and gambling, and you don't ask me to come? Chu Tianya, I have accepted your apprentice for nothing!"
Everyone was happy and laughed.
"Brother Chu!" Wang Xun came forward and said with a smile, "I've wanted to come to your house for a long time and have a drink with you. However, my father refused. It suddenly snowed tonight, but my father took the initiative to invite me. It won't disturb your interest, will it?"
"How come?" Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Master and Brother Wang are the distinguished guests who can't be invited - Xiaofei, go and add bowls and chopsticks and cook more wine!"
At this time, Wang Yu's eyes fell on Uncle He, who was sitting silently. He walked over and sat down beside Uncle He. He picked up a bowl of wine and said, "Students borrow flowers to offer Buddhas. First, I respect you."
Everyone couldn't help but be shocked: Uncle He is still Wang's teacher?!
He Bo grinned and said nothing, so he drank the bowl of wine.
"Chu Tianya, are you surprised?" Before everyone asked questions, Wang replied to himself, "Yes, this old man is not only the master who teaches Tong Taishi martial arts, but also my teacher. In fact, there are countless generals in the Song Dynasty, all of whom are from his family.
"Don't mention the past!" He Bo squeaked his lips and said, "I'm just a subordinate of the Chu family now. I just want to spend the rest of my life quietly. Wang Yu, if you are still your teacher, respect my choice.
"Students should obey." Wang Yu respectfully punched Uncle He and patted the table and said, "Come on, sit down!" Keep drinking, eating meat and gambling! Have a good time. Let's discuss one more thing.
"We agreed today that we will forget the kindness and hatred no matter of the state." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Since the teacher is here, you have to be a guest!"
"Good!" Wang Qi laughed cheerfully, "It's rare to have such a happy time. That's it. Let's eat, drink and have fun first. After you wake up, let's argue!"
"Good!"
Originally, with these two uninvited guests, the lively atmosphere was also a little affected. Seeing that the king was also so easy-going, everyone was relieved. He poured a large bowl of wine again and began to gamble.
Wang Xun poured a bowl of wine to respect Chu Tianya. After the two drank it, Wang Xun whispered, "Brother, don't blame my father. He expelled you from the victory army, and he didn't feel good. But he must do that, otherwise many people in the army will not accept it.
"I still understand this truth. Brother Wang doesn't have to explain it." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Master has always been open and upright. If he doesn't disassure me from his post, he will make me look down on him."
"As long as you understand." Wang Xun took a breath, looked around the room and said with a smile, "It's very comfortable to get along with you straightforward heroes. I want to come here for a long time. Brother, let me ask you a little thing..."
"You said."
"Liu Yanqing... Did you tie it up?" Wang Xun paid attention to the movement around him and said in a low voice when he saw that no one paid attention to them.
Chu Tianya smiled slightly, "What if it is?"
"Then don't let him back!" Wang Xun took a breath and whispered, "That man has always been unconvinced to my father, and he has to press his father everywhere. Moreover, that was quite a confidant in the army. As soon as he came back, it was hard to say what would happen. If it's a big deal against gold, it's too late to repent!"
Chu Tianya nodded with a smile, but said nothing.
"Oh, brother, do you want to say something?" Wang Xun was a little anxious.
Chu Tianya took a long sip of hot wine and spit out a mouthful of hot steam, laughing.
Wang Xun was stunned at first, and then smiled bitterly, "That's all, my elm head can't figure out what you're thinking. But I know you will definitely have some arrangements, which is not worth my worry about - the big beauty is doing the village. Let's go, we two brothers will also gamble!"
