Chapter 1119
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
While Tang Yu was talking to Xu Shize, Zhao Gao shouted loudly.
When Zhao Gao finished speaking, Emperor Tang stepped forward wearing a dragon robe with a majestic face.
"I'm waiting to see your Majesty! Long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!"
Seeing the arrival of Emperor Tang, all civil and military officials and relatives of the emperor stood up one after another.
"No gifts, no gifts!"
Tang Huang waved his hand and said: "Today is the New Year. I have summoned everyone to participate in the dinner. Don't be restrained. Just let go. I hope everyone can have fun and drink tonight. Zhao Gao, let's get started!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhao Gao responded respectfully.
Later, Zhao Gao asked someone to notify the imperial dining room. The imperial dining room had been prepared, and a large number of delicacies were served by a group of young eunuchs.
Emperor Tang was the first to pick up the wine glass, and he said in a friendly manner: "You have all worked hard this year, I would like to toast you all!"
Remember URL
"No hard work, no hard work, I'll toast your Majesty with a drink!" Everyone picked up their wine glasses in return.
After a glass of fine wine, the dinner party officially started. The palace singers quickly came forward, and the Jinluan Palace suddenly became peaceful with singing and dancing, and everyone was enjoying themselves.
The ministers exchanged cups, and it was very lively. Emperor Tang had not been so happy for a long time. Many ministers proposed toasts, and he accepted all who came.
Just after the singer finished a dance, Xia Ji Xia Yuhe slowly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, it's rare for everyone to gather together tonight, I plan to present a song!"
"Oh? Yuhe, do you want to perform a song? Okay!" Tang Huang became interested.
Xia Yuhe was born in the Xia family, the most aristocratic family in the Tang Dynasty. She was once a famous and talented girl in the capital. Xia Yuhe was proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
It's just that he has been busy with government affairs in these years and rarely listens to Xia Yuhe's music. Now that Xia Yuhe wants to play something, Emperor Tang naturally likes it very much.
Seeing Emperor Tang's agreement, Xia Yuhe's eyes were serious. She slowly looked at Tang Yu and said, "Your Majesty, before I play, I have one more unkind request!"
"It's okay to just say it!" Emperor Tang said boldly.
Xia Yuhe pointed at Tang Yu and said, "Your Majesty, I have heard that His Highness the Prince's music is superb. I want to compete with the Prince tonight. Please do it for me!"
"Want to compete with me in rhythm?" Tang Yu raised his eyebrows.
The singing and dancing in the Jinluan Palace had just been peaceful, and Xia Yuhe had not been looking for trouble. Tang Yu thought she would calm down, but unexpectedly, this woman had always been holding back bad feelings.
"good!"
Xia Yuhe said provocatively: "A few months ago, the eldest princess of the Northern Qi Dynasty, Chen Yuqi, led a delegation. It was rumored that that night, the eldest princess Yuqi played a song "Ambush from Flying Daggers". No one in the civil and military dynasties dared to play with Yuqi. In the battle between princesses, in the end it was His Highness the Crown Prince who took action and turned the tide!"
"It's true!" Tang Yu recalled.
At that time, Chen Yuqi came to the Tang Dynasty for the first time. She was very prejudiced against the Emperor of Tang. On the night of the reception, Chen Yuqi played the song "House of Flying Daggers" in an attempt to make the Emperor of Tang lose his face. Finally, she took action and played a song from modern times. "One Flight of the Bumblebee" saved the royal family's face.
Unexpectedly, Xia Yuhe would seize on this matter and intend to use music to humiliate herself.
Tang Huang narrowed his eyes, looked at Tang Yu and said, "Yu'er, do you dare to compete with Yu He?"
The song "Flight of the Bumblebee" that Tang Yu played before really shocked him. Although he knew that Xia Yuhe came with bad intentions, he wanted to see if Tang Yu could produce better works next.
Everyone in the Jinluan Hall fell silent. They knew that the invisible confrontation between Xia Ji and Tang Yu had begun.
"Your Highness, what are you still hesitating about?"
Seeing that Tang Yu didn't answer, Xia Yuhe said with disdain: "What? Does His Highness the Crown Prince dare not accept the challenge and wants to be a worthless wimp in front of all the civil and military officials?"
