Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Five Calyx House Dancing
Li Siye turned his head slightly and saw Chen Xilie behind him. The man's face had a dull expression, as if this matter had nothing to do with him. Looking at Li Linfu again, a hint of a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth,
This guy has been prepared for a long time, just to see his own joke.
In his heart, he resisted performing in this scene. Isn't this tantamount to playing monkey, because some people looked at him with the eyes of watching a monkey show. Now that he has come to this step, he should give up his face. What kind of face do you want to be an official?
He bowed and crossed his hands and spoke: "I'm not very good at Shule dance, but Your Majesty, I once met a businessman from far away Australia, and learned a shuffle dance from him. Please invite the saint and the empress."
Watch."
"Oh," Li Longji raised his eyelids and looked curious: "My opera house has dance types from all the officials around the Tang Dynasty. I have never heard of Australia, let alone shuffle dance. Give me
Do a dance."
This shuffling dance existed more than a thousand years ago in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Of course, the emperor had never heard of it. Some people said that the dance contained countless messages. Could he see the incompatibility of this dance?
Li Siye recalled the passage of training on the road in his mind, and at the same time made up a musical accompaniment in his mind, and began to wave his arms and step, following the rhythm in his heart, stepping down with his front legs, sliding backwards with his hind legs, and kicking and swinging forward with both legs.
The rhythm gradually became more vivid.
The emperor opened his mouth. Perhaps the subtext in his mind was: What on earth is this? Why is it so weird? Or maybe his mind was thinking hard about what musical instrument could match such a powerful dance.
When he started to jump with his legs interlaced and gradually moved to sliding, the saint was already holding his knees to beat the rhythm, while Yang Yuhuan covered his mouth and let out a cheerful laugh. There was indeed a strong rhythm in his legs,
It gives people a sense of joy and joy, especially for Li and Yang, who grew up under the influence of elegant and soft court dance. They accepted the Hu Xuan dance they loved and they were powerful and unrestrained enough, but this kind of legs were different.
The energy of this kind of tapping and jumping is not only far better than that of Hu Xuan, but also far surpasses the tapping songs that even the reckless people like.
The emperor quickly waved to the eunuch Yuan Siyi and said: "Go quickly and get my Jiegu!"
The eunuch hurriedly ran to the back of the palace, ran out with a Jie drum in his arms and delivered it to the emperor. Li Longji took the drum belt and put the belt around his neck, and followed Li Siye's footsteps with both hands and started beating.
The second floor of Huaxe Building fell into a situation where joy and embarrassment coexisted. Li Siye danced till he was sweating, Li Longji drummed with both hands in high spirits, and Yang Yuhuan lay on the imperial concubine's couch and clapped her hands gently while laughing with joy.
The embarrassment was that Chen Xilie stood there blankly and was at a loss. He could not feel joy. If he forced himself to laugh, it would be tantamount to offending Li Linfu. Li Linfu's expression was cold and indifferent, as if he had seen through everything, the general's madness for profit, the emperor's gaffes for dancing, the concubine
In his eyes, the playful rudeness became the absurdity of losing the law. Gao Xianzhi felt sad and unbelievable. In his eyes, Li Siye was a decent subordinate. He really didn't believe that he could actually destroy his character. How could he be forced to do this?
Why do you do such a weird dance?
Li Siye finally stopped. Sweat continued to flow down from his forehead and dripped on the floor. The emperor put down the Jiegu and told the eunuch Yuan Siyi: "Quickly wipe the sweat with General Li's silk handkerchief and see if he can
It’s so tiring.”
Yuan Siyi came forward with a tray containing silk handkerchiefs. Li Siye crossed his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
He took the silk scarf from the tray and wiped it on his face haphazardly.
Li Longji asked with interest: "Li Siye, what kind of dance is this? Where did it come from?"
"Sage, this is shuffling dance. It was taught to me by a businessman from Australia."
The emperor seemed to have endless curiosity and thirst for knowledge, and he continued to ask: "Where is Australia? Isn't it under my rule, the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Siye replied: "Your Majesty, it is far to the west of Dashi and west of Fulong. It is also thousands of miles away from Qixi."
The emperor nodded with emotion: "No wonder there are no envoys coming and going. It's so far away. I'm very happy that you can dance for me. Go back and tell those merchants from the Western Regions that the more such dances, the better. I like to watch them most, and I also like to show them
Collect them together, draw on the strengths of everyone, and create a dance that I personally arrange and design."
From what he said, it sounded like he was a respected old artist. Li Siye felt quite ironic while trying to please the emperor. The emperor abandoned his original profession and became an artist instead. You can be an artist if you want, can you?
The Dragon Throne will pass on the country to the next generation. Who will care about what you like to do and dance then?
But he couldn't escape his identity as emperor. Without the throne, he felt like he had no sense of security. He could only switch between these two identities uncomfortably.
Of course you should not act in your position but not act in accordance with your policies, but if you do not act in your position, this is going too far.
"Li Siye listens to the order."
Li Siye quickly knelt down and worshiped.
"You are a good dancer. I will make you a general of Youweiwei. You will continue to lead Beiting Jiedushi. I will also make you a general of Liyuan Leying. Before taking office in Beiting, I will go to Liyuan to teach you and make you good at dancing.
I taught this dance to the Tachibe maikos in the pear garden."
Li Siye was deeply surprised and honored. He didn't expect that he would be appointed as a music camp general in Liyuan, and he would also join as a dance teacher. To be honest, how can a teacher with only a little bit of dance skills teach students to dance? He is really
Can't take it.
"I obey the decree."
The emperor rubbed his brows and shook his head: "I am really tired. You can go down first."
Li Linfu took the lead and crossed his hands and said: "I will leave."
They retreated slowly, and the maids standing beside the pillars picked up the poles, took down the gauze curtains hanging on both sides of the caisson, and hid the emperor deep in the Nine Layers Palace.
When they came down the stairs of Huaxe Building, Li Linfu stopped and glanced coldly at Li Siye, who was not far behind him. This flash of cold contempt was almost not caught by anyone, because it was really
It was ridiculously fast, as if the lightning was hidden behind the clouds and gradually disappeared into silence before it even happened.
Li Siye always thought that Li Linfu would come out and give him a verbal warning, thinking that this was in line with the behavior of a villain. As a boss in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty, he would not be surprised if he said any language or behavior that concealed threats.
But the abnormal thing is that Li Linfu said nothing. Apart from that cold and scornful look, he and Li Siye had no communication at all. Li Siye couldn't even find the other party's attitude towards him from that look.
The old fox who is always present does not seem to have any statement. He said nothing, which may be equivalent to showing his attitude.
When he walked out of the flower calyx building, Gao Xianzhi stood in front of him, with a look of helplessness and alienation. Li Siye had seen this expression before. A friend and partner who has interests in you suddenly learned that you have many trump cards.
Let him know that others keep three points with their friends, but you keep seven points. This is quite close to hypocrisy.
Gao Xianzhi said meaningfully: "There are many people I really don't understand, but today there is another one like you."
