Chapter 523 Sleepless Night

 It’s late at night and no one is quiet.

Liu Xie tossed and turned on the bed, unable to fall asleep.

The Weiyang Palace of the Han Dynasty was quite large, but as a place where the emperor slept, it was not very large.

The bed is actually a bit like a smaller room, carved with patterns to form a rectangular space, leaving an area on the front for climbing on the bed.

Liu Xie glanced at the burning lamp not far from the bedside.

During this period, the oil in the permanent lamp was changed from rapeseed oil to fish oil. There is no black smoke and no odor. It seems that the wick has also been changed, right?

At least now I rarely hear the sound of lamp wicks popping in the middle of the night.

Liu Xie turned over and looked at the top of the bed. He peeked through the gauze curtain and could vaguely see a large pattern and some square grids. There were eighty-one squares on the left and eighty-one on the right. There were eighty-one squares in total.

One hundred and sixty-two...

As for that big pattern, in addition to a coiled dragon among the clouds in the center, there are also five cranes and nine bats, as well as some clouds, branches, leaves, flowers and fruits...

Liu Xie was very familiar with these things and could tell where they were without even looking.

Even everything in this room was very clear to Liu Xie.

The right claw of the dragon carved on the top of the third pillar on the left side of the house is unknown for some reason, but a finger tip is missing...

There is a piece of wood carving on the right, which is probably affected by moisture. There are already some tiny bubbles on the paint surface, and it may start to peel off after a while...

In the past, whenever he couldn't sleep at night, Liu Xie would count and look at the numbers over and over again until he was exhausted and could fall asleep.

But some time ago, well, it should have been since the execution of Dong Zei, Liu Xie basically fell asleep when the time came, and he could sleep until dawn.

But today, for some reason, Liu Xie couldn't sleep again...

Liu Xie turned over again in frustration, this time with a slightly larger movement, and kicked his foot onto the bed board beside him, making a muffled "thunk" sound.

Perhaps awakened by this sound, a little black head quickly appeared not far away, and then a figure climbed up from the ground. He took a few steps to Liu Xie's bed and saw Liu Xie shining brightly in the dark night.

With his eyes, he couldn't help but subconsciously said: "Can't sleep again, Your Majesty?"

Liu Xie said "hmm" and simply sat up with his brocade quilt in his arms, saying: "Dong Huan, bring your quilt here, let's talk..."

"Wei, Your Majesty." Dong Huan of Xiaohuangmen was very gentle, and soon he was carrying a cotton quilt and laying it on the floor at the foot of Liu Xie's bed.

"...In two days, there will be a big sacrifice..." When Liu Xie thought of this, he felt that his heart was pounding and it was difficult to calm down.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Dong Huan hugged the quilt, leaned his back against the foot of Liu Xie's bed, rubbed it twice, and replied.

"Although this is not my first time to participate in the festival, but...well..." Liu Xie didn't know how to describe it, and finally hesitated and said, "...it's not the same anyway..."

Although what Liu Xie said was a bit incomprehensible, Dong Huan could understand it.

As a young eunuch who grew up with Liu Xie since he was a child, he is called a playmate in some nice words, but in fact he is Liu Xie's scapegoat. No matter what Liu Xie did wrong, such as running outside on a rainy day, or being playful,

Go catch bugs, etc. If anyone breaks the rules, Dong Huan will be punished first.

The court guards who carry out the punishment are very measured and will not be cruel or leave any internal injuries, but they will definitely beat Dong Huan's two buttocks to pieces, leaving blood dripping and shocking...

I called Liu Xie to see it.

Fortunately, Liu Xie was very smart. After being reprimanded once, he basically never did something again, so Dong Huan did not suffer too many punishments.

In the dead of night, it's time for these two to be alone together. Of course, when Liu Xie turns thirteen, he will start marrying the queen's concubines, etc. By then, there will be someone else in this small bedroom.

Joined in...

Dong Huan returned: "Yes, Your Majesty, this time is different."

Liu Xie said excitedly: "You know, this time it will be changed to Wenwu!"

Literary dance and martial dance were the most important ceremonial music and dance during royal sacrifices in the Han Dynasty. In fact, the dance team was not two groups of people, but the same team. However, the display of "literary" or "wu" was determined by the dance team.

The differences in tools and movements are shown. Literary dance is holding Yuya, and martial dance is holding Qianqi.

There is no problem in choosing between civil dance and martial dance for sacrifices. However, at the end of the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, he fought all the year round, first against the Xiliang Qiang people, and later during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, so he always used the dance that represented martial courage.

Most of them used martial arts. Later, after Dong Zhuo came to Beijing, because of Dong Zhuo's personal hobbies, he always used martial arts...

Dong Huan was also looking forward to it and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, it seems that we haven't seen Wen Wu for a long time..."

The colorful Yuya is more beautiful than Qianqi, at least in Dong Huan's opinion, no matter from which angle...

Liu Xie hummed and continued: "...and we also need to add the music and dance of 'Zhaode' to the 'Shiju Music'..." Thinking of this, Liu Xie was inevitably a little excited. The music and dance of Zhaode are commemorative

It was done by Emperor Wen, "passing through the Liang Dynasty without communicating with distant places; eliminating slander, removing corporal punishment, rewarding the elders, taking care of the lonely, and driving away the group of people." Does this mean that I hope that I can calm down the war and restore the power of Han Dynasty like Emperor Taizong?

Do you mean it?

Dong Huan replied seriously: "Your Majesty will surely be like His Majesty Taizong, who is virtuous and beneficial to the world."

Speaking of Emperor Taizong, Liu Xie also stopped smiling, with a stern face, nodded "Yeah" seriously, and then said: "Tomorrow I want to go to the Ancestral Temple first... It's been a long time since I came to Chang'an, and I haven't done anything yet.

I’ve been there a few times... Do you think my ancestors are unfilial to my ancestors in heaven..."

Strictly speaking, the Ancestral Temple in Chang'an and the Ancestral Temple in Luoyang are not from the same system. The Ancestral Temple in Chang'an is based on Liu Bang, while the Ancestral Temple in Luoyang is based on Liu Xiu...

Although Liu Xie's surname is Liu, in a sense, his bloodline is more inclined to Liu Xiu, and compared with Liu Bang, the founder of the Han dynasty, well, it is already considered thin.

However, now that the Ancestral Temple in Luoyang has been turned into ashes, only the Ancestral Temple in Chang'an is left. Although the tablets of the ancestors have been added to it,...

how to say……

Anyway, Liu Xie still felt a little weird in his heart, so he rarely went there.

But now, you should go and talk to your ancestors, right?

The treacherous official who brought disaster to the Han Dynasty has been executed. With the help of Wang Situ, things will definitely get better!

Liu Xie clenched his little fists, with a hint of smile, looking forward to and imagining...

After a while, Liu Xie suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, which Fei Zhonglang have you seen? What do you think of this person?"

"..."

Liu Xie didn't hear Dong Huan's response for a long time, so he couldn't help but stretched his head and took a look, only to see that Dong Huan couldn't hold on anymore, his head was leaning on the foot of the bed, and he fell asleep.

Liu Xie curled his lips, but did not wake up Dong Huan. He moved his body and lay down again. After a while, he closed his eyes, his breath gradually became lower, and he fell asleep.

In this Weiyang Palace, the master and servant have experienced situations like this many times, but this time it may be a little different...

But, who knows?

Big Data.

I remembered that the author Jun also took a class on data mining when he was in college...

There were even research monks specializing in deep mining of economic data at that time...

But I remember that at that time, no such theory had been proposed...

Or maybe it already exists, but it is not open to ordinary people...

In a sense, a person's behavior can be completely divided into various 0s and 1s in the electronic age...

A fixed IP, when all are monitored by the data network, then the behavior of this IP can be outlined, whether it likes to buy skirts or pants, likes red or blue, likes travel or food, likes radical or conservative, likes political system or individual……

All in all, outline an outline that is not you, but is you, and then you can predict what you will do next...
