Chapter 212: Lost Horse
The days of waiting for news are really a bit difficult, Li Longji can be described as a wise and martial artist in the first half of his life, but now when he is old, he is a little overjoyed, indulged in pleasure, and entrusts Li Linfu and others with the major affairs of the DPRK and China, etc., plus his ears are soft, and the people around him can change his mind if he says a few words casually, to be honest, Zhao Ziliang is very worried.
Waiting for the news was a little irritable, Zhao Ziliang had to take a few servants to play around inside and outside Chang'an City, and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the Great Ci'en Temple and other places with lively scenery were all running around.
After three days in a row, in the afternoon of this day, Zhao Ziliang took Bai Xiaode and a few other servants to return to Zhuangzi from outside, Chen Qingying sent him a gilded name thorn and said: "Master, just now a person came down from the mountain, saying that the Yuzhen Daoist invited you to talk tonight."
Chen Qingying, a woman, after a year and a half of recuperation, the former skinny figure is gone, and now the mature woman's charm and richness are fully expressed, wandering around Zhao Ziliang all day long, so that Zhao Ziliang can't hold it anymore, plus her daughter Wang Zhiyun is also about to fall like a beautiful flower, one of the mother and daughter is in full bloom, and the other is beautiful and a little delicate, so that Zhao Ziliang can't wait to do both mother and daughter, but this kind of thing is too scary, so that Zhao Ziliang is a little hesitant, This matter has been dragging on.
Pressing the restlessness on his body, Zhao Ziliang took the famous thorn and opened it to take a look, it turned out that it was sent by Princess Yuzhen, inviting him to go to Yuxie to watch tonight.
After seeing the famous thorn, Zhao Ziliang muttered: "This Jade True Dao is also powerful, we have only been in this Zhuangzi for a few days, and she sent someone to find it!" ”
In these years, a woman's reputation as a monk and a Taoist priest is not very good, to put it bluntly, she is a high-level prostitute? Prostitute, why is it said to be a high-class prostitute? Prostitutes are because these women generally do not receive ordinary men, and the objects of reception are mainly famous literati and scholars, dignitaries and dignitaries. These people are either talented or have financial power, under the guise of exchanging poetry and Taoist classics.
Of course prostitution? The statement of prostitutes, the feminist ideology of the Tang Dynasty is relatively serious, many women in the Tang Dynasty chose to become female Taoists in order to avoid arranged marriages, and lived a more free and more choice of love life, "female Taoist" is a more decent identity cover-up.
However, the situation of royal women becoming Taoist priests is relatively special, and some royal women are ordained to avoid political disasters, saying that they have no quarrel with the world and will not participate in the struggle for power. In this way, you can save your life, and Princess Yuzhen and her sister Princess Jinxian have been monks since they were children, and the purpose of becoming a monk is like this, although they were still vulgar and married, but they soon became monks again, and they later became monks, obviously to avoid the unhappiness in marriage, on the one hand, they enjoyed the fun of celibacy. On the other hand, it is caused by their boredom and disgust with married life. Because the two princesses became monks since childhood, Emperor Xuanzong thought that the two younger sisters were living too hard, so he doted on them in every way, and also invested millions of dollars to build a Taoist temple for them. This incident also caused the impeachment of the imperial envoys at that time, but although Emperor Xuanzong accepted the criticism of the imperial envoys on the surface, he secretly allocated the full amount.
Princess Jinxian died early, and few people know about the gossip about her love life. And Princess Yuzhen often travels all over the world, often accompanied by literati and young scholars, and it is hard to believe that she has no emotional life. In the past few days, Zhao Ziliang has heard about the gossip scandal between Princess Yuzhen and Li Bai several times in public entertainment places such as Chang'an wine shops, teahouses, and Qinglou.
In the evening, Zhao Ziliang changed into a new regular clothes, and took Bai Xiaode and a few other servants to ride a horse to Princess Yuzhen's Jade Pavilion Temple, which was built by Emperor Xuanzong for Princess Yuzhen to practice, and her sister's Taoist Temple of Princess Jinxian was Xuantai Temple, collectively known as Xuantai Jade Temple, these two Taoist temples were extremely famous at that time, but because Princess Jinxian died early, Xuantai Temple is basically vacant now.
As soon as he walked to the door of the Jade Pavilion Temple, Zhao Ziliang dared to see the imperial car parked at the entrance of the Jade Pavilion Temple, and the emperor Li Longji walked down from the imperial car, Zhao Ziliang did not expect Princess Yuzhen to invite the emperor to come, and immediately dismounted to meet him: "The last general Zhao Ziliang visited His Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”
Li Longji didn't expect to meet Zhao Ziliang here, although he was a little surprised, he still smiled, raised his hand and said, "Zhao Aiqing is exempt!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
At this time, two more gorgeously dressed nobles walked down from the back car, and Li Longji hurriedly beckoned to one of them: "Cao Ji, come here, don't you often mention General Zhao who escorted you all the way from Shi Guo?" Look, who is this? ”
This beautiful woman in the Western Regions is the place where Zhao Ziliang sent an envoy to Zhaowu Jiu last year, and escorted Cao Ye Naji from Shi Guo all the way to Anxi.
At this time, Cao Ye Naji was wearing gorgeous clothes, and her style and beauty were better than back then, she looked at Zhao Ziliang, her face was surprised, and she hurriedly ran over, and said happily: "General Zhao, I haven't seen you for a long time, I saw you when I was a prisoner at Suzaku Gate a few days ago, but there were too many people at that time, and it was noisy, so I didn't have a chance to catch up with you."
If it was the affectionate attitude of the other concubines towards Zhao Ziliang, Li Longji would definitely be furious, but Cao Ye Naji was different, she was out-of-the-box, arrogant, and wild, this is something that everyone knows, and it is normal to have this reaction when meeting the old man, so Li Longji not only did not feel disgusted and jealous, but also looked at the two with a smile.
Cao Ye Naji was so "close" to Zhao Ziliang regardless of his identity, Zhao Ziliang didn't dare, so he hurriedly bowed down and said, "The last general will meet Cao Ji!" Cao Ji is worried, and the end will be terrified! ”
Seeing Zhao Ziliang like this, Cao Ji complained quite a bit: "You people, there are too many rules and etiquette!"
Saying that, Cao Ji remembered that there was another person behind her, and hurriedly stepped aside and pulled an imperial concubine behind her and introduced: "Sister Mei, didn't you say that you admire General Zhao very much, you see, this is General Zhao."
Concubine Jiang Caiping, she likes plums, is full of talent, is one of Emperor Xuanzong's favorite concubines, and is one of the eight talented women of the emperor and concubine.
Concubine Mei looked at Zhao Ziliang and couldn't help but exclaim: "I couldn't really see it on the city tower a few days ago, but when I look at it closely, the general is really mighty, no wonder he has made many meritorious deeds."
Zhao Ziliang hurriedly said: "Niangniang praises falsely, Ziliang is ashamed and dare not be."
Li Longji looked at Zhao Ziliang's mount Wuli at this time, and said with a look of surprise: "Hey, Zhao Aiqing, your mount is a good horse, what kind of horse is this?" Although there are a lot of horses in my imperial horse prison, I am afraid that none of them can compare to it, and it is worth a lot of money, right? ”
Zhao Ziliang didn't think about anything else, and when he saw the emperor asking, he hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, its name is Wuli, it should be a big horse, and it didn't cost anything for the last general to get it, but it was the last general who killed the general Ge Shutong when he was fighting with the Tuqi Shi people!" ”
"Brother Shutong? I know, I heard that in the battle of the single day, Ge Shutong killed three generals in a row, and General Zhao was able to kill Ge Shutong, who had such a miraculous BMW, and his martial arts were really strong! Concubine Mei smiled and talked about the deeds she heard about Zhao Ziliang.
Cao Ye Naji then said: "General Zhao, you still don't know, this big food horse was originally called the black dragon, but it was a gift from the Great Food Country Mission to His Majesty, but I didn't expect that the Great Food Mission was intercepted and snatched by the Turgish people when it passed by the Turgish!" ”
"Ahh Zhao Ziliang was shocked, after listening to Cao Ji's words, he didn't understand what Cao Ji meant at this time, this horse was originally the emperor's, and after he snatched it back from the hands of the Turgian people, he didn't give it to the emperor, but kept using it himself, which is a big crime of disrespect!
Zhao Ziliang hurriedly bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know that this horse is dedicated to Your Majesty by the Great Food Country, and the minister is guilty of death!" Now that I have seen Your Majesty, it is time for the things to return to their original owners, and I ask Your Majesty to take back this horse."
Li Longji looked at Zhao Ziliang, and when he saw that he seemed to really don't know what was going on, he also let go of his suspicions at the moment, and said with a smile: "Zhao Aiqing get up, get up!" You also do not know, and you do not sin if you do not know! ”
Saying that, Li Longji walked to Wuli's side, walked around, looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and couldn't help but reach out and want to touch its horsehair, but Wuli didn't buy it at all, the horse's head slammed Li Longji's hand away, snorted in his nostrils, and finally let out a warning scream.
Li Longji was startled, and took two steps back, and the surrounding guards of the forbidden army shouted one after another: "Escort, escort!" ”
Although Li Longji had not personally fought in battle, he was still a little bloody and brave, but he was slightly frightened, and it didn't matter, he hurriedly raised his hand: "It's okay, it's okay!" BMW Divine Pony has always been unruly, only truly tame it, it is willing to make people close and ride! After saying that, he thought Colliers beckoned.
When Gao Lishi saw it, he hurriedly ordered a soldier of the forbidden army: "Take away His Majesty's horse quickly!" ”
It's just that a god horse like Uli can be led away by ordinary people? Not only did the forbidden soldier not be able to pull it, but he was also kicked to the ground by Uli.
Wu Li has spirituality, as if he knows that he is going to be separated from his master Zhao Ziliang, and his mouth screams, and the voice feels extremely sad.
Zhao Ziliang was afraid that Wu Li would not be taken away and angered the emperor, the emperor was about to be provoked, and ordered to kill Wu Li with a knife, that was a real tragedy, he hurriedly walked to Wu Li to comfort it, while stroking its horsehair, while whispering something in its ear.
Soon, Zhao Ziliang stopped and said to Li Longji: "Your Majesty, this horse is human, and now it will not resist anymore."
Li Longji was surprised, and waved his hand to a soldier, the soldier came up and took the reins and left, Wu Li turned back to Zhao Ziliang from time to time and screamed, and the reluctant appearance made people really can't help crying. (To be continued.) )
