Chapter 84 Meeting

Chang'an Duyang Hou Mansion Flower Hall

There are many red candles, making the hall bright as daytime. On one side of the hall, there is a band of musicians playing bright music. On the sandalwood, a graceful young dancer wearing an embroidered curly hat, a thin spring shirt, and brocade boots dancing happily. Her hat is covered with pearls and golden bells, while her shirt is slender waist and narrow sleeves, covered with silver flower ornaments. The dancer dances quickly with the rhythm of the drum sound, graceful and graceful, light and elegant, and there are golden bells and rustling brocade boots. Such a dance moves so much that Tang Li, who was first seen in "Tuozhiwu", was admired by the first time, and he even raised a cup to drink.

The more the drum sounded, the faster the dancer danced. Every time the peach blossom smiled, she turned into a charm. The spring shirt on her body also spun out a blooming mandala flower with the rapid dance. When the last drum sounded, the dancer bowed her waist. Although the shirt was half-barred, she was still looking at her autumn, with her eyes moving.

After the song was finished, Tang Li was immersed in it. After savoring for a while, he raised the cup and invited the opposite man Yang to drink: "It is rumored in the capital that the Marquis is elegant and good music, and he was praised by the emperor as a national player of Quwu. Today, I only read the song "Tuozhi" of the family in Hou's mansion. I really think it is 'coming back and forth the swallows, leaving again and again, and I am shocked by the geese'! Looking at this dance, I know that the rumors in the market are not false, but with such a wonderful dance, how can I not drink? I hope this cup will last for the Marquis!"

Duyang Hou was a middle-aged man of more than 40 years old, with a slightly fat body and a kindness. He had the best music and was content with this. Tang Li's words were just as itchy in his heart. He laughed when he heard this. He raised his cup and said, "For the past few years, no matter north, west and south, all famous music and dances in various places have been read. However, if you talk about the beauty of the tune, you have to recommend the first Hu Wu "Tuozhi", "coming back and forth, flying swallows, leaving again and again, shocking the geese". He only heard these more than ten words of test. It is known that Xiaoyou Tang can be a soulmate, come and drink!"

After a cup of wine was over, Duyang Hou waved his hand to signal his maid to add wine, and smiled at Tang Li: "I listened to a song about a long Xiao in Shannan that day. I was always in my heart. After more than a year, I saw a real person in the capital today, and finally made a wish. But when I saw each other again today, my friend was already famous in the capital. This is certainly a congratulations, but my Hou's idea of ​​hiring you as a teacher at this residence was only disappointed, but I felt really regretful!"

Duyang Hou was so crazy. On that day, he thought that he could recruit this young man from Shanxiao to the mansion and teach those singers and dancers. But he didn't expect to see him for a year. Now Tang Li has become famous in Chang'an. Even if this is not the case, he is really impossible to hold this position with his identity as a tribute student. Although he is talking about jokes, the regret comes from his heart.

"I am very skilled and praised the marquis in the marquis so much. Although I can't get a teaching position, it would be fine if I compete on weekdays!" Since I was sure to take the Jinshi exam, Tang Li naturally could not agree to take the position of teaching in the marquis' mansion, but he did not stop talking. As long as I did not receive that money, this is a romantic and elegant thing in the literati. It does not affect his reputation.

"Oh! That's so good." Du Yang Hou was very happy when he heard this. Haha smiled and then raised a cup to persuade him to drink.

Afterwards, the two of them talked about some things such as singing and dancing. They were obsessed with this, Duyang Hou had a wide range of knowledge and Tang was far away from it. Therefore, some music theory responses that he had come into contact with in the future. These statements that had never been seen before made Yang Hou's eyes lit up, but he felt that although this young man was young, he had a natural understanding of music and could be a soulmate.

Halfway through the wine, Du Yanghou, who was smiling slightly, suddenly thought of something and suddenly put a bottle of wine. However, his eyes were closely focused on Tang Li.

Although Tang Li was so angry that he was watching it, after waiting for a while, he saw that he was still like this, so he smiled and said, "Hao Master has thought of some famous songs again, and he is so focused?"

This sentence woke Yang Qi up in contemplation. His eyes lit up, as if he had decided on something. He laughed and raised his bottle and drank it, and then said with a smile: "Now I have something to ask for, I hope my friend will not refuse."

After hearing this, Tang Li was stunned. Now that this marquis is very popular, what are the difficulties that need him? He thought so in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged and asked with a smile: "Mr. If he has his own will, please give him the order."

"I must know that my family background is also known." Seeing Tang Li nodding slightly, Du Yang said a little proudly: "No need to mention the Imperial Concubine, just last month, my three other cousins ​​were all named the country's wife. My Yang family has received such a deep grace. I really want to thank Your Majesty for your kindness."

Nodding to show that he knew, Tang Lijing listened to Duyang Hou continuing to say.

"The Yangmen in the capital regards me as the leader. With such grace, I may not have to come forward to hold a casual banquet to thank my cousins. How can I not have any singing and dancing at the banquet? According to my husband's wishes, this must be entrusted to my friend."

"What?", when Tang Li heard this unexpected thing, he was shocked and said. Since it was a thank-you banquet, I believe that today, the son, the imperial concubine and all the ladies of the country would attend. If Du Yang Hou dared to say that, Tang Li really did not dare to accept the banquet.

Seeing that Tang Li was shocked, he immediately refused. Du Yang Hou smiled and said indirectly: "Don't think about this matter too complicated. This is just a banquet. It will not be a big scene. You can just let it go, even if it is a little bit distant, it's okay."

"The Duyang Marquis' Mansion is full of talents. If this is not enough, with the Marquis' current favor, it would be easy to borrow some national players from the palace sect to help. Why would he choose the lower one?" This question could not be explained no matter how Tang Li thought.

"New meaning!" After saying these two words, Du Yang Hou explained in detail: "If you talk about musicians, as my friend said, there is no shortage in this mansion. However, if these musicians are good, not the emperor, even this marquis has long been familiar with them and has no new ideas. If the banquet is still following the old examples next month, what else can you have? On the contrary, the design made by my friend for Naguan in Jinzhou that day made me hear and hear. This time, I entrust my friend to the songs and dances at the banquet, but I did not ask my friend to play them by myself, but how to arrange and combine musicians so that they can make new and amazing things in this banquet."

"Be a director!" After listening to Du Yanghou's explanation, Tang Li understood what he really meant, the Tang Dynasty palace music. There are differences in singing, singing, and so on, while dance is divided into two parts. There are many branches under each part. Although there are many types, it has been a long time since it has become a fixed pattern. If you read too many places, it will inevitably become annoying. Du Yanghou has appreciated it today with good music, so he naturally hopes to make new and strange things at the banquet in his mansion. This is to give his own face and hope to win the favor of the emperor.

Seeing that Tang Li just lowered his head and thought after hearing what he said, Du Yanghou did not urge him, but those eyes were closely watching the boy in front of him...

…  …  …  …  …

Tang Li, wearing a starry sky, said goodbye to the house and returned home, thought about how to arrange this casual banquet.

The relationship with Li Linfu is to be determined, and Tang Li is unwilling to be too close to this Quan. Whether it is for the sake of the present or the future, he will not be able to offend the Marquis of Duyang.

Moreover, after careful consideration, Tang Li thought that this was a good opportunity to make a profit. He absolutely believed in the level of the singers and dancers in Duyang Marquis' Mansion. With this strong strength as the foundation, the singing and dancing in the banquet would be dull. However, there would be no big trouble, which fundamentally guaranteed his own safety. However, if this is successful, the benefits would be endless. He once made the "Nichang Yuyi Song" and was famous in the world as the founder of the Liyuan Garden. On the other hand, the reward he gave to those he admired was rare. Not to mention anything else, the only thing that the Jia child in Kaiyuan was named a marquis by the art of fighting cocks was proved.

Thinking of this in his heart, Tang Li felt a little hot. After coming to Chang'an, this would be his best opportunity to visit. However, the object he wanted to visit was today's son and the imperial concubine. The way to visit was not poetry, but singing and dancing.

"Four beauties! I don't know what this Concubine Yang looks like?" Thinking of the end, this thought popped up in her mind. Tang Li shook his head, whipped his whip, and returned to his residence with the sound of his hooves.

…  …  …  ……  ……

Back at the courtyard of the residence, Tang Li planned to go directly to the room to rest, suddenly saw a red color on the middle window of A San's room, which was particularly eye-catching in the night. In shock, he ran forward and kicked open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Tang Li felt a flame coming towards him. When he quickly retreated, there was no fire in the inner room, but the flame that was as long as a meter long spurted out from the standing wild Taoist mouth.

The flames lasted for a while. Seeing this, Tang Li stepped into the room and shouted coldly: "You wild Taoist priest, why are you making a mysterious thing if you don't sleep this night?" He reached out to Asan, wanting to take him out of the room before talking.

After pulling his hand twice, A San did not move. When Tang Li turned his head to look, he saw that the child who was dull in reaction was now looking at the wild Taoist priest with his eyes that were astonishingly bright and his face was flushed with excitement.

"Asan, you're all tricks of deceiving people. What's the point?" After seeing these performances on the streets in later generations, Tang Li's tone was filled with contempt.

"Little trick! So what do you think of this?" The wild Taoist priest waved his hand and took out a silver sword from there, raised his head and stuffed it into his mouth. In just a moment, the sword had all entered his stomach, leaving only one.

"Master...Master...Teach me..." After hearing A San's words, Tang Li looked at the wild Taoist priest and sneered: "Put your folded sword away." After saying that, he lowered his body and said: "A San, I can teach you these tricks of swallowing the knife and spitting fire. You still have to learn from him!"

"Oh! You know how to swallow a knife and spit out fire!" The ferocious Ye Dao didn't care about Tang Li's tone. After hearing this, he laughed and said, "Then see how this happens again?" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his hands moving. After a moment, a clear light flashed in the room, and a colorful pot appeared out of thin air, roaring and pounced towards Tang Li.

Although he knew it was fake, when he suddenly saw such a scene, Tang Li still instinctively stepped back with a look of horror on his face.

When the tiger was about to arrive in front of Tang Li, it suddenly disappeared. Ye Dao laughed and kept hearing. The green light flashed in the house, and all the famous flowers bloomed one after another, making people dizzy. His method was simply incomparable to the demonstrations made by Ah San in Jinzhou that day.

Tang Li really didn't expect that this wild Taoist priest could have such a trick, but he was scared and lost his composure just now. After all, he refused to accept it. After he accepted the magic, he sneered in a constant tone: "It's all fake things that are lie, and you can't get on the table!"

"Since it is called an illusion, it is naturally fake!" The wild Taoist clapped his hands and laughed: "As for whether it is up to the table or not, from the Sui Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, whenever there is a big banquet in the palace, the first show must be the illusion drama "Fish and Dragon Spread". When Brother Tang becomes prosperous every day, he can see it, and there is no need to talk too much."
