Osman was a person who did great things, which meant that he would not do things that were disadvantageous to himself for an insignificant woman. Being angry for a woman would never happen to Osman. Moreover, the little beauty in Ang Lee's arms was snatched by his subordinates. She did not belong to him, so it was not a big deal to lose her. At most, he would feel sad in his heart.
After all, Osman was not young. He was at least a dozen years older than Ang Lee. At this age, people were already very mature and would not do impulsive things.
In the history of Hua Xia, there were examples of being angry for a woman. Among them, the most famous one was Wu Sangui of the Great Ming Dynasty, who was a person with a very bad reputation.
However, Wu Sangui also did it for his concubine. This was already considered his woman. After getting along with her, they already had feelings for each other. After his concubine was snatched, of course, he would be very angry.
In addition, Wu Sangui was only in his early thirties. He was still a very young man. He was very angry, so it was normal that he could not suppress his anger for a while.
Of course, being angry for a woman might be a fabrication by later generations. At that time, no one knew what Wu Sangui was thinking. Perhaps there were more reasons.
For example, as a subject of the Great Ming Dynasty, he was naturally unwilling to submit to the bandits of the peasant uprising. Moreover, these bandits were generally uncultured. They were all uncouth and did not respect people. Whether they could effectively rule the country was a problem. If he submitted to such a new dynasty, his future was really uncertain.
Moreover, the good positions in the new dynasty were definitely reserved for their own people. It would be difficult for a surrendered general like Wu Sangui to be valued. He might not even be really trusted. If he was excluded or even framed, he would not know who to reason with. Moreover, from the fact that his concubine was snatched, he could see the rudeness and barbarism of the new regime. It was simply unreasonable.
On the other hand, the enemy outside Shanhai Pass was much more polite. Moreover, it was a tribe with a small ethnic population. It was also a good idea to temporarily surrender to the foreign enemy and fight the new regime together. This could also show his loyalty to the Great Ming Dynasty.
It was just that San Gui never dreamed that a tribe with a small population would actually occupy all the land of the Great Ming Dynasty in one go after entering the pass. Moreover, the area of land that they occupied was much larger than the area of the Daming Dynasty. This was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.
Originally, the forces of foreign tribes were only introduced to quell the rebellion in the country, but unexpectedly, the whole country was occupied by foreign enemies.
During the Three Kingdoms era, Liu Zhang was the same. In order to resist Zhang Lu's invasion, he led Liu Bei into Sichuan. He wanted to use Liu Bei to resist Zhang Lu in the north. In the end, all of Yi Province was seized by Liu Bei.
Therefore, to say that Wu Sangui was angry because of a beauty was a shallow guess. He did not see the real situation behind it. Being angry because of a beauty was only a trigger. However, the attitude of the new regime towards him could be seen through the fact that the new regime's general had snatched his concubine. This was simply an insult.
Who in the world would sincerely recruit someone and then snatch his concubine? This was simply a great insult. Making the person who submitted to him kneel at his feet was simply a pervert in reality.
Lu Bu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was also like this. He did not know that Diao Chan was a chess piece in a series of schemes. Therefore, when he knew that the adoptive father he was loyal to had snatched his concubine, he was naturally furious and killed Dong Zhuo in anger.
At the same time, this also taught us that we must be honest. If we want our subordinates to be loyal, we must treat them with sincerity. We cannot treat our subordinates as slaves who will wantonly humiliate and oppress them.
After all, humans have dignity. They can never be compared to dogs. It is impossible for them to be unconditionally loyal to their masters like dogs. Many people in power who are complacent and conceited ignore this point. They think that their status is high. Even if they treat others badly, there will be no problem.
For example, there is a famous saying, "If the monarch wants his subjects to die, the subjects have no choice but to die." It means that the monarch treats his subjects like dogs. If he wants to kill them, he will kill them. It is simply too cruel.
Although Osman was rude, he did a good job in treating his subordinates. There were many remarkable things about him that many people could learn from.
Compared to Osman, his subordinates were even happier when they saw this scene. They didn't even feel sour, they only felt happy.
After all, they could not get this little beauty. Being able to use this little beauty to serve Ang Lee was definitely good news for them.
Naturally, Ang Lee's subordinates were even happier. Ang Lee won the favor of this little beauty at a banquet in another country. This not only proved Ang Lee's charm, but also won face for the Tang Empire. As the subjects of the Tang Empire, they naturally felt proud.
Finally, there were more than a dozen dancers who accompanied the little beauty. Their expressions were more complicated. Some of them were drooping their lips, looking a little unhappy. Some of them were smiling, as if they were watching a wonderful idol drama.
Some of them were watching quietly. There were no changes in their expressions, and no one knew what they were thinking. In short, only the dancers' expressions were changeable. After all, every woman's heart was different.
After bending down and holding the little beauty for a long time, Ang Lee gently straightened her body and asked gently, "May I know your name, little miss?"
The little beauty was not an oriental, but a westerner. She should be from Europe, so she had a kind of exotic beauty. However, this western beauty exuded the temperament of an oriental beauty. No, it should be the common temperament of eastern and western beauties. It could be regarded as a combination of east and west!
Because she was a little shy, the little beauty pondered for a moment before answering, "I'm Li Xiaolu, Spanish."
"Li Xiaolu? This is the name of a woman from the Tang Dynasty. Little miss should be from the Tang Dynasty! How can you be Spanish? "
Ang Lee asked in confusion.
The little beauty smiled and said, "Women from the Tang Dynasty don't look like this. Li Xiaolu is the name I gave myself. My original name is Anna. Do you know why I changed my name?"
After that, she looked at Ang Lee mischievously.
Ang Lee smiled and asked, "Why?"
The little beauty smiled and said, "Because I like the Tang Dynasty. I hope that one day I can go to the Tang Dynasty to play. I haven't been to the Tang Dynasty yet."
After saying that, her face was full of longing.
"Oh, I see. Then should I call you Anna or Li Xiaolu?"
Ang Lee asked with a smile, completely ignoring the current situation.
"Just call me Xiaolu."
The little beauty said with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, looking quite sweet.
Ang Lee nodded with a smile and said, "Xiaolu, let's dance together! I'll teach you. Learn well! "
After that, Ang Lee pulled Li Xiaolu and danced the tango in the circle of dancers. Although Li Xiaolu didn't know how to dance, Ang Lee could teach her. Moreover, the tango was not difficult to learn and could be learned easily.
No one had ever seen such a completely new form of dance before. Therefore, everyone, including Osman, looked at Li An and Li Xiaolu in surprise, watching them put in so much effort into the performance.
At the beginning, Li Xiaolu was very clumsy and always stepped on Ang Lee's feet, which was very embarrassing, but Ang Lee didn't care. Anyway, it didn't hurt at all. Under the patient and careful guidance, Li Xiaolu soon learned the tango and danced more and more happily with Ang Lee.
"Xiaolu, you learn so fast. You are the fastest learner I have ever met."
Ang Lee praised with a smile and gradually increased the difficulty of the dance.
"Really? It seems that Assistant Minister Li likes teaching people to dance very much. He must have taught a lot of girls! "
Li Xiaolu said.
Ang Lee nodded and said, "Yes, he has indeed taught a lot. However, Xiaolu is the one with the best aptitude. No one can compare with Xiaolu."
"Really? Can Assistant Minister Li take me to the Tang dynasty?"
Li Xiaolu asked with a smile.
Li An was slightly taken aback, then he said, "Of course you can. Why not?"
Xiaolu stood on tiptoe and whispered in Ang Lee's ear, "Later, the bearded man will give me to you as a gift. You must accept it!"
After that, she smiled and continued to dance with Ang Lee.
Ang Lee was stunned for a moment and then nodded with a smile, indicating that he fully agreed.
The two danced happily in the middle of the hall, while the people around all looked at them with envy. Moreover, no one dared to disturb Ang Lee and Xia Xiaolu unless Ang Lee was tired of dancing and chose to go back to his seat.
Dancing was quite exhausting. Although Ang Lee's physical strength was very good, he didn't dance often. Therefore, after dancing for a while, he seemed a little tired.
"Xiaolu, let's have a drink!"
Ang Lee didn't want to dance anymore, so he pulled Li Xiaolu over and let her sit on his lap.
"Assistant Minister Li, let me feed you."
Li Xiaolu also knew how to seduce people. She hooked her arm around Ang Lee's neck and looked at Ang Lee with a fiery gaze. She used her other hand to pour a glass of wine and gently placed it next to Ang Lee's mouth.
The beauty's service was so good that Ang Lee had no reason not to drink. He tilted his head back and drank it. After drinking, he took the opportunity to bite Xiaolu's lips and let the beauty feel the taste of alcohol.
If it wasn't for his high status, Ang Lee's disregard for the occasion would have incurred the anger and sidelong glances of the crowd. However, because of Ang Lee's high status, no one dared to say that Ang Lee's behavior was wrong, and no one dared to disturb Ang Lee.
In particular, most of the subordinates brought by Ang Lee were busy eating and drinking. They toasted with Osman's subordinates. A few bold ones even pulled a dancer over and asked her to pour wine for them and touch their hands. Taking advantage of others made people happy.
Of course, the status of these subordinates was not as high as Ang Lee's, so they didn't dare to eat and hug as presumptuously as Ang Lee. At most, they took advantage of others a little.
Osman's subordinates were much more well-behaved. They all respectfully toasted with the officials of the Tang dynasty. No one dared to be presumptuous. After all, even their boss, Osman, didn't have women on his left and right, so how could they dare to be presumptuous?
The officials under Ang Lee dared to be a little presumptuous because, first, they didn't need to be too well-behaved when Ang Lee acted like this. Second, they were officials of the Tang dynasty, and the Tang dynasty was the most powerful country in the world. Even if the officials of the Tang dynasty were a little arrogant, no one dared to say anything. After all, they were a weak country.
Just like the monarch of a strong country could ask the empress of a weak country to be his concubine, or even forcibly possess her. This was the difference in power. If the monarch of a weak country had the backbone to refuse, the country would be in danger of being destroyed.
Didn't the emperor of the Braid Dynasty forcibly marry a fragrant concubine from a foreign race? In history, there were very few such examples.
After lingering for a while, Ang Lee smelled Li Xiaolu's charming fragrance and looked sideways at Osman, who was laughing and drinking. Osman realized that Ang Lee was looking at him, so he immediately looked at Ang Lee.
"Sultan Osman, I didn't expect that there would be such a charming dancer in your palace. I like her very much just by looking at her!"
Ang Lee said while touching Li Xiaolu's pink face.
Osman's eyes lit up and he said with a laugh, "Assistant Minister Li is wrong. This dancer has just entered the palace, and it's the first time I've seen her graceful dance. It's really amazing!"
"Oh, I see. Sultan, you're really lucky! You'll have a lot to see in the future. It's really a great blessing to see such a graceful dance every day. "
Li An continued to gently caress Li Xiaolu's rosy cheeks as he spoke with a tinge of jealousy.
When Osman saw this, he knew that this little beauty could not be kept. He hurriedly said, "If Assistant Minister Li likes her, just take her away. It is her fortune to be able to receive Assistant Minister Li's favor."
"Oh, Sultan, are you really willing to part with her?"
Ang Lee asked for confirmation.
Osman hurriedly said, "As long as Assistant Minister Li likes her, there's nothing I can't bear to part with. Moreover, I can see that this little dancer also admires Assistant Minister Li. So, why don't I help them? This is also a good thing. "
After he finished speaking, he looked at his subordinates. Many of his subordinates all agreed and asked Ang Lee to accept her.
Since everyone was so enthusiastic, Ang Lee naturally had no reason to refuse, so he agreed, "Since Sultan is so kind, I'll accept it. Hahaha! Little Miss Xiaolu, are you happy to go back with me? "
After he finished speaking, he pinched Li Xiaolu's butt, which was considered flirting.
Li Xiaolu nodded with a smile and obediently went back with Ang Lee.
"Haha! The beauty also agreed. That's great, that's great! "
