Mrs. Wu said "As far as I know", what other opinions can Zhang Changzong have? I had to say with a sneering face: "No problem, no problem." โ
"That's good."
Wu Zetian then said: "Don't talk about the government, now I announce that the "Universal Celebration of the Universal Banquet" has officially begun! โ
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
The crowd has finished shouting, and the wine and delicacies are served at a low price.
Needless to say, the two beautiful Tibetan envoys sat next to Cui Geng, pouring wine and vegetables, as if no one was next to them, and they were really envious of others.
When I inquired, it was even more unbelievable, one of these two was the first beauty in Lhasa, and the other was a Bon saint, Cui Geng didn't even give her the title of concubine, and she didn't even bring it with her when she came back, so she was in the bag, which really promoted the national prestige of the Great Zhou.
Even with that, there are many worries about Cui Geng's "khan" son, and there is a lot less of this guy just likes to show mercy everywhere, and he may not have any political purpose. Otherwise, these two beauties are pregnant in Tubo and give birth to a son to Cui Geng in Tubo, is it possible that Cui Geng will defect to Tubo?
The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors.
Li Xian walked over and said, "Two beauties, the official wants to borrow your lover, and please be sure to appreciate your face." โ
"Where, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is polite." The second girl blushed and stepped out of the way.
Li Xian didn't mind showing closeness to Cui Geng in front of Wu Zetian, after all, when Wu Zetian sent Cui Geng to take him back to Beijing, he had already tacitly accepted Cui Geng as his team.
Li Xian gently tugged Cui Geng's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Erlang, I couldn't help it just now, the lonely king also has the difficulties of the lonely king." โ
Cui Geng said: "Weichen understands, you have the hope of the world, and you can't be reckless." As long as you can succeed to the throne, even if Weichen is a little wronged now, he will be able to reinstate in the future, or even go further. โ
"Erlang, it's good if you understand."
Li Xian looked at Cui Geng cautiously, and he didn't know what he was saying sincerely, or he was perfunctory. For this number one general, he still doesn't want to lose.
Suddenly, Li Xian made up his mind and said, "Erlang, King Gu wants to marry An Le to you." โ
If Cui Geng hadn't heard Li Bao'er's statement at the beginning, he might have been so frightened that he dropped his chopsticks on the ground, and he would have been moved to tears.
However, now, his expression was very calm, and he said, "Thank you for your love, Your Royal Highness the Prince, it's just that Weichen already has two wives, so it's not suitable for Princess Shang, right?" โ
Li Xian saw Cui Geng's reaction, and thought that Cui Geng didn't believe his words, and said: "There are always more ways than difficulties, and the lonely king will think of a way." The lonely king Chrysostom said, what he said counted! โ
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."
Li Bao'er is going to become a sister-in-law, and Cui Geng and her affairs will not be hidden from anyone sooner or later, so she hurriedly knocked on the bricks and nails and agreed to it.
Li Xian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Now the two are arrogant, arresting and killing a lot of our people, and even the side branches of the martial arts family have killed a lot. It's good that Erlang can come back, and you need to help deal with Erzhang. โ
"No problem. Speaking of two sheets, there is one thing you don't know, today at the city gate......"
Cui Geng didn't like to gossip, but Li Xiandu said that he promised Li Bao'er to himself, so he had to say something, right? simply told me what happened outside the Mingde Gate today.
Li Xian was very happy after hearing this, and couldn't wait to tell his confidant, Yang Bu, the autumn official servant.
The key to this matter is not that Cui Gengzhong thwarted Zhang Changzong's conspiracy, after all, Zhang Changzong did not suffer any losses. The key is that both sides of Tibet are not optimistic about Zhang Changzong.
The crown prince Li Xian and all the courtiers, these days, have been bullied by Zhang Changzong. Any piece of good news is precious and boosts morale.
One to ten, ten to hundred, the atmosphere in the hall is getting more and more cheerful.
Zhang Changzong knew that people were talking about him, his face was extremely ugly, and he said, "Didn't Cui Xiang say that he was going to see Lu Xiong?" Why don't you go yet? It seems that you don't care much about Lu Xiong. โ
This is a strong word, Cui Geng can't give Wu Zetian no face, leave the royal banquet, and go to the criminal department to visit Lu Xiong by himself, right?
His words can be said to be in Cui Geng's arms, so he got off the donkey and said, "I was about to ask for an order." Your Majesty, Wechen ......"
"Alright, I'm ready." Wu Zetian interrupted: "Cui Aiqing and Liulang quarreled as soon as they met, and when they didn't stop, my ears still wanted to be quiet for a while." โ
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Colliers, take my gold medal. Otherwise, Cui Aiqing really wouldn't have seen Lu Xiong. โ
"Yes."
Later, Cui Geng received the gold medal and came to the Qiuguan (Criminal Department) prison. Until now, Cui Geng didn't know that it was no wonder that Wu Zetian wanted to give himself a gold medal. The head of this Qiuguan (Criminal Department) prison is called Zhang Changyou, and he is Zhang Changzong's brother.
"Cui Xiang, please!" Zhang Changyou stretched out his right hand and let Cui Geng into the cell, and then avoided it far away.
Cui Geng was also a little unbearable, and the smell was too bad. It's not a smell, but a strange smell, full of cold, oppressive and even death. If the days are long, the good people will have to wait for the sickness.
"Old man, Cui Geng has come to see you!"
Thinking that Old Man Lu Xionglu had been here for nearly half a month, and he had to continue to stay, Cui Geng's eyes were red, his words were crying, he staggered, and walked to prison.
"Don't cry! Don't cry! Good boy, don't cry! It was bright on the outside and dark on the inside, but it was Lu Xiong who saw Cui Geng first and comforted him.
Cui Geng took a closer look, but there was no blood on the old man's body, and his face was not very clear, and said, "Old man, you haven't suffered any grievances, right?" โ
"Well, how good can life be in this prison? However, the old man's old bones can still hold up! โ
"Don't worry, old man, I will definitely find a way to rescue you as soon as possible."
"I'm not in a hurry, old man." Lu Xiong's anger was quite sufficient, and he said: "Actually, this is a good prison, we haven't seen each other for a while, right?" If I hadn't been in jail, would you have come to see me? โ
Cui Geng's face flushed slightly, and said: "I used to be busy with official business, and I didn't visit the old man much, ......right?"
"Don't explain, don't explain!" Lu Xiong waved his hand again and again, and said, "Old man, I either blame you, or ...... Miss you. As soon as I saw you, I fell in love...... Alas, really, it's good that you and Lihua are together. All right...... Don't talk about that...... You're here to come back for the sake of the old man's business? โ
Cui Geng saw that this old man was talking upside down, and his heart became more and more uncomfortable, and said, "That's the case......
Then, he briefly introduced what had happened, and then asked, "How did you put that old woman of the Liu family in the first place?" Juniors see if there are any loopholes, can you excuse yourself? โ
