Chapter 584: Li Shimin's True Intentions

At this time, Empress Changsun finally ran forward, and without saying a word, she raised her hand to slap Han Yue.

After the fight, he cried bitterly, hugged Han Yue and said, "Good boy, you are obedient, don't quarrel with your father." If we have a fire in our hearts, we can go out for a walk, and the queen mother will accompany you to Tianjiazhuang to live for a few days. ”

Han Yue struggled a few times, but unfortunately the eldest grandson held on to him and couldn't struggle, Li Shimin next to him was still gritting his teeth, and Han Yue also glared at the emperor angrily.

These two are scared tonight!

The eldest grandson didn't dare to delay any longer, she felt that she couldn't hold her son this time, so she suddenly turned her head and scolded a group of princesses loudly: "Are you stupid, don't you pull your eldest brother away." Hold on, do you have to be happy if their father and son splash blood? ”

These words were a bit heavy, and they suddenly frightened a group of princesses into discoloration. The girls hurriedly crowded forward and dragged Han Yue away.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were silent, trembling as they watched the queen and princesses drag Han Yue away. When he came to the door, the eldest grandson suddenly looked back and said hatefully to Li Shimin: "You can be satisfied this time, and finally drive our mother away." ”

After speaking, without waiting for the emperor's reaction, he forced Han Yue out of the door.

Later, Li Shimin's face was full of anger, but he couldn't find a place to vent his anger for a while, the emperor's eyes were fierce, and he suddenly kicked the banquet table beside him, and shouted: "Swing and go back to the palace, I want to have fun tonight, and if I don't sleep ten concubines, it's not ...... finish."

The sleeves of the dragon robe swung and he strode away viciously.

There were hundreds of courtiers and nobles left at the banquet, as well as those noblewomen who had come with their daughters with intentions, and everyone looked at each other at this time, and their faces were all stunned.

Suddenly, Fang Xuanling took the lead in getting up, and beside him was another prime minister, Du Ruhui, and the two ministers looked at the military general, arched their hands and smiled: "British Duke, Wei Guogong, tonight's New Year's Eve, the Han family is jubilant." The old man heard that His Royal Highness had prepared a lot of fireworks before the banquet, why don't we go out and have a look? ”

On the other side, Li Tao and Li Jing glanced at each other, and at the same time got up and smiled: "That's right." ”

The four bigwigs of civil and military affairs almost represent the most powerful faction in the entire court, and the main purpose of the four of them is to maintain stability.

The emperor and Han Yue quarreled and collapsed, but the royal banquet could not be overturned and collapsed. Because tonight, not only the ministers and nobles of the Tang Dynasty came to Qujiang here, but also many envoys from other countries who came to participate in the banquet.

For example, Lu Dongzan of Tubo, such as the great elder of Tuyuhun. In addition, there are envoys sent by the countries of the Western Regions, and various small countries of the Lingnan generation.

Datang can be embarrassed, but it must be lost behind closed doors. But there is a foreign envoy here, and this face must be forcibly maintained.

A moment later, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui led the Wenchen, Li Tao and Li Jing led the generals, and Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, led the royal nobles, and Li Chengqian led a group of princes, all of whom walked out of the banquet hall with hulala, and then stood on the bank of the Qujiang River.

Although there was a small snowflake tonight, the river was not frozen and frozen. The water of the Qujiang River is flowing loudly, sounding a little quiet and peaceful, with occasional ripples and ripples, reflecting the red lights on the shore. The waves are rippling like a fish and a dragon dancing.

Fang Xuanling and Li Tao glanced at each other, and the two nodded to each other at the same time. Li Tao suddenly took a step forward and shouted loudly: "Where are the fireworks salute soldiers? ”

There was a roar on both sides of the riverbank, and no less than hundreds of people responded. It seems that there are no longer a few salute soldiers arranged tonight, and Han Yue originally wanted to make a lively Chinese New Year's Eve.

Li Tao nodded, and suddenly waved his arm heavily, and shouted again: "Light the fire, burn the flowers." On the orders of King Zhao of Xifu, Chang'an will rejoice tonight......"

"Whoa!"

On both sides of the riverbank, there was a sound of harmony, and a group of salute soldiers stepped forward.

The next moment, the cannon roared, dense like a drumbeat.

A cluster of light rose from the flat ground, roared into the sky, and suddenly exploded in the sky, turning into clusters of flowers. Hundreds of millions of stars are shining in the sky over the entire Qujiang River, and fireworks shine on the sky and the earth as if it were day.

Below, there is a curved river, the river is flowing loudly, and the light in the sky falls on the water, reflecting a brilliant picture.

"What a prosperous scene!" Fang Xuanling stroked his long beard with his hand, raised his head and let out an exclamation.

Next to him, Li Tao felt the same way, nodded and said: "Fang Xiang is right, the scene of the real prosperous world is also ......."

The two bigwigs, one writer and one martial arts, glanced at each other, and suddenly laughed together. In the midst of laughter, the two quietly retreated, slowly walking to a deserted place.

Fang Xuanling glanced left and right, and suddenly said, "This quarrel is worse than before." ”

These words are headless and brainless, but Li Taoquan nodded, and said with a solemn face: "And they are all angry." ”

Fang Xuanling sighed lightly, and said with a bitter face: "I hope that Niangniang can be appeased and resolved, and there will never be a father-son breakup." My Datang has just had a prosperous scene, and neither of them nor their father and son can do it without one. ”

Li Tao raised his head to look at the sky, and said bitterly: "It's a pity that the father and son are all hard-tempered, and we have no way to be courtiers about this kind of thing." If you help Your Highness, then Your Majesty is annoyed, if you help Your Highness, then Your Highness is annoyed. Fang Xiang, I can't hide it, I'd rather help His Highness now, because I'm a little afraid of him......"

Fang Xuanling coughed lightly and muttered, "Why isn't the old man? ”

Both were silent at the same time, apparently unwilling to continue the topic.

After a long time, Fang Xuanling's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light, and Sen Sen said: "British duke, can you do it?" ”

These words are still headless and brainless, it is difficult for you to think that a leader of the Tang Dynasty Wenchen will have a fierce look in his eyes, but Li Tao shook his head and said solemnly: "It's not easy to do it, after all, they are all envoys." Especially Lu Dongzan is even more troublesome, it is very easy to kill him, but it is difficult to deal with Tubo later. ”

Fang Xuanling sighed gloomily, nodded and said: "Yes, this person went to the banquet alone, and he still dared to pick the east and the west, and his reliance was nothing more than the Tubo army, it is said that Songtsen Gampo personally led 500,000 soldiers and horses to ignore Jiannan Dao......"

Li Tao snorted coldly and said, "500,000 is definitely a bomb, and Ben Shuai thinks that it will not exceed 300,000 at most." ”

"300,000 is also a headache!"

Fang Xuanling said with a distressed expression: "The remote place of Jiannan Road has never been suitable for garrisoning the army, especially the rugged and difficult roads, and it has always been a dangerous place. Even if the court urgently sent troops over, at most it would only intimidate and confront, but we couldn't hold out for long. ”

Li Tao also looked distressed, nodded in agreement: "Yes, there are only a thousand people who are thieves, and there are no thousands of thieves." People can rush down from the plateau at any time, but we can't take revenge and fight back. Even if a large army is sent, it is only a temporary intimidation, and the Tang Dynasty and Tubo cannot afford to delay it......"

"Scoundrel!" Fang Xuanling was angry, and the old man's fists were obviously clenched.

Li Tao took a deep breath and said, "I'll go to find out about this matter in a few days to see if His Highness has a good plan." Now we still have to go to the fireworks, and leaving for too long will not be good. ”

Fang Xuanling glanced at him, nodded and said, "That's exactly how it should be." ”

After thinking about it, he suddenly said: "Tonight, the wind and clouds in the Qujiang River, the sky is full of fireworks, I don't know if Your Majesty and His Royal Highness are watching, I don't know if the mother and princesses are watching......"

Li Tao was slightly stunned, and then said with a wry smile: "What do you guess?" ”

The two slowly turned around side by side, returning to the banks of the Qujiang River again.

At this time, the fireworks are still being set off, and even more and more magnificent, but the sky is full of bright sparks, almost illuminating the sky like day.

None of the people present knew that in a pavilion about half a mile away from Qujiang, Emperor Li Shimin was looking at the sky with his hands down, and there were guards around him, but no one dared to come forward to disturb him.

Li Shimin looked at the fireworks from afar, and suddenly exhaled a breath lightly from his mouth, and snorted: "Although the stinky boy is angry, he makes things beautiful." ”

He suddenly beckoned to the dark place, and ordered, "Get me a pot of warm wine, and bring a few dishes to accompany the wine." ”

An old eunuch flashed out in secret, it was the leader of the master of the inner world, the old eunuch stood outside the pavilion and bowed down, and said respectfully: "Isn't Your Majesty going back to the palace?" ”

Li Shimin laughed, sat in the pavilion casually, and said lightly: "The fireworks are so brilliant, I want to have a drink." ”

Qiantian nodded, waved his hand at the guards in the dark, but he himself hung his hands and guarded the pavilion, and suddenly whispered tentatively: "Your Majesty, in fact, Your Highness is not wrong. He loves his sister, dares to compete with His Majesty, thinks about the heroes of the past generations, and the old slave admires His Royal Highness the most......"

Li Shimin let out a 'hmm' and said lightly again: "I know." ”

"Is Your Majesty still angry in your heart?"

"Very angry!"

Qiantian's pupils shrank, and he hesitated for a long time before he dared to ask again, and whispered: "Then what are you going to do with Your Highness?" ”

Li Shimin smiled slightly, and said with deep meaning: "What else can I do?" He is my son. ”

He suddenly sighed and muttered, "I have been on the throne for too long, and sometimes I need a son to quarrel with me. Although I was angry, I felt like a person. You and I should know for the longest time that being an emperor is most afraid of becoming inhuman, and it is not interesting to live coldly like that. ”

Qiantian was stunned for a moment, then his face was happy, and he arched his hand again and again: "Your Majesty's chest is as wide as the sea, and the old slave admires it abnormally. ”

Li Shimin scolded with a smile, pointed at his nose and reprimanded: "Sycophant, the queen arranged for you to test me, right?" One of you only respects the queen, and sooner or later I will be sold by you......"

He suddenly sighed and muttered, "I have been on the throne for too long, and sometimes I need a son to quarrel with me. Although I was angry, I felt like a person. You and I should know for the longest time that being an emperor is most afraid of becoming inhuman, and it is not interesting to live coldly like that. ”

Qiantian was stunned for a moment, then his face was happy, and he arched his hand again and again: "Your Majesty's chest is as wide as the sea, and the old slave admires it abnormally. ”

Li Shimin scolded with a smile, pointed at his nose and reprimanded: "Sycophant, the queen arranged for you to test me, right?" One of you only respects the queen, and sooner or later I will be sold by you......"
