I Have 100,000 Dead Warriors

Gu Tingyu's eyes turned, and he understood and said, "Your Majesty is rich, it's not difficult to watch a sword dance. Just take advantage of the New Year's excitement and arrange for someone to dance."

Zhao Xizhuo smiled and said, "What the Queen said, could it be possible to reproduce the glory of the sword dance?"

Gu Tingyu nodded: "That's right!"

Zhao Xizhuo clapped his hands: "Okay, in that case, I'll be waiting for your surprise."

The reason why Gu Tingyu was so confident was that this sword dance evolved from military swordsmanship and was originally a dance exclusive to men.

During the Tang Dynasty, there was a woman named Gongsun Da Niang who was extremely talented and beautiful. Her dance was so beautiful that it moved the whole city. Gradually, dance became a tradition for women.

Since the sword dance was derived from military sword techniques, it can naturally be rediscovered from the sword techniques practiced by soldiers.

His Gu family was a family of military generals, and they were skilled in swordsmanship, including sword dance.

According to traditional etiquette, the Gu family's unique skills should have been inherited by him, the eldest son.

However, he was born with congenital deficiencies and was weak, so he was unable to inherit.

Therefore, all the unique skills of the Gu family were given to Gu Tingye.

In the play, Gu Tingye always says that he is pitiful. He and Sheng Minglan are in the same boat and act pitifully every day, as if the whole world feels sorry for them.

If he was really that pitiful, where did Gu Tingye get all the martial arts that allowed him to become a dragon adept?

After talking for a while, Gu Tingyu suddenly said, "The trivial matters in the harem are complicated to deal with, but someone has the power to seize it, and a wave of trouble has arisen from nowhere."

Zhao Xizhuo stared at him and said, "You are the queen, in charge of the six palaces, and stand shoulder to shoulder with me. If you have anything to say, you can just say it directly. There is no need to hide it."

Gu Tingyu hesitated for a moment and said, "When I was dealing with things, I heard that Concubine Ka first withheld the heating quota of Concubine Qi, Concubine Lan, and Concubine Fen, and then went to Changchun Palace to make a scene, causing Concubine Qi to fall ill. I know that your majesty dotes on Concubine Ka, and she is arrogant because of her doting, so it's okay for her to be a little stubborn, but it's such a cold day, and she withheld the charcoal and made the palace smoky and chaotic. Isn't it a bit too presumptuous?"

Zhao Xizhuo chuckled lightly, his smile was quite playful: "I thought it was nothing, just a little bit of charcoal. Concubine Qi has been spoiled since childhood. Let Concubine Ka tame him and teach him a lesson, which is also a good thing."

Gu Tingyu looked at him inquiringly: "Does Your Majesty indulge Concubine Ka so much?"

Zhao Xizhuo smiled, but his eyes turned cold. "It's not that I indulge Concubine Ka, but such a small matter is not worth mentioning. I am busy with all kinds of affairs every day. The Queen is in charge of the six palaces and has to deal with hundreds of trivial matters. Why should I worry about a few unworthy people? Whether it's the harem or the back house, as long as the Lord and the Queen Mother don't make mistakes in major matters, I will turn a blind eye to other things."

She paused and said meaningfully, "It is said that if you are not stupid or deaf, you will not be a householder. Just laugh it off and it will pass. Queen, do you think I am right?"

Gu Tingyu's eyes darkened, and he said, "Your Majesty, every word you say is very enlightening. I have learned a lot from you!"

He was wondering at first why Zhao Xizhuo chose Sheng Changbai and Shen Congxing to enter the palace, but never favored them once?

Qi Heng has a distinguished family background, is handsome, and has a natural gentleness and elegance. Almost no woman can resist his charm.

But Zhao Xizhuo's favor towards him was commonplace and he didn't take it to heart.
