Chapter 261: The Pit (3)
It is a fortunate thing to turn jade silk into a good thing, if you can reach an agreement to take what you need, it will be the icing on the cake, it should float a big white, even if it is worth getting drunk because of this, not to mention that the lord is attentive, the guest is bold, this wine has been drunk from the afternoon until the sunset, and it is dripping with pleasure, Rao is more than a dozen people in the Tubo envoy group are people who have a lot of alcohol, and they can't stand the persuasion of many wine country heroes in the palace, all of them drank down, and they were sent back to the outer domain by the palace guards like mud. And as the master, Li Zhen, although he has a large group of palace masters to help block the wine, and he is also a soldier of the alcohol test, but he is also drunk dizzy, although he is not so that he can't distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, but his steps are a little vain, and he has to send away the Tubo envoys, and he can't sink down to go to the study to discuss matters, and he staggered a little and went to his backyard, wanting to take a look at his chubby little boy, but when he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he realized that the little guy tossed for an afternoon before falling asleep, so he didn't dare to disturb, I was afraid that the kid would cry endlessly, so he simply didn't even enter the door, and walked to Princess Mingyue's small courtyard while wandering.
According to the Tang Dynasty system, although the prince is not as cumbersome as the princess, and there is no need to be as grand as entering the cave room in the palace, it is not something that can be sent away casually, after all, the prince's wife is a formal wife with a five-rank official rank, in addition to the emperor's decree, the Ministry of Rites must send officials to preside over the marriage, and the woman's family to greet the family, in addition, the husband and wife are not allowed to have a private meeting before marriage is also a prohibition, and its degree of formality is only worse than the princess in the palace into the cave room. But because Li Zhenyuan is outside the plug, all this is simple, but well, there should still be things like a wine banquet, after all, Princess Mingyue's identity is not an ordinary woman, but Li Zhenxin is not in the class of King Qiuzi, and she didn't plan to let Princess Mingyue return home and then go to marry, but just set up a separate courtyard in the Dadu Protectorate for Princess Mingyue to live in first, and after the wedding on April 8, she moved into the side courtyard to live, of course, the maids and subordinates sent to serve Princess Mingyue are not young and old, Coupled with the bridal girl sent by King Qiuzi, the old mother and the like, the number of people is so large that it is even more lively than the princess Pei Yan, this person is a lot, the eyes are mixed, Li Zhen has not yet walked to the gate of the courtyard, the sharp-eyed maid saw his arrival, and went to Mingyue Princess early in the morning, and when Li Zhen arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Princess Mingyue had already led a group of warblers and swallows to welcome outside the gate.
"See Your Highness as a concubine." Princess Mingyue saw that Li Zhen's face was flushed, her steps were vain, and she said goodbye, but she hurriedly grabbed Li Zhen's side and reached out to support Li Zhen's slightly shaky body.
"Ah, this king is fine, hehe, it's okay, just come to see Xiao Yue'er, do you miss this king? Hehe. Li Zhen did drink a little high today, and there was no cover in her mouth, and in this public, even her private words popped out, which immediately made Princess Mingyue blush, and a group of maids couldn't help but laugh and tremble, and the courtyard was full of giggles.
Li Zhen has been so busy these days that her feet don't touch the ground, the front is fighting, and the back is busy with the vicious fighting in the Beijing Division, coupled with the Anxi military and political entanglement, there is never a spare hour, most of the night is spent in the study, even if there is some free, Li Chun's noisy boy has to be coaxed again, occasionally come to Princess Mingyue's courtyard, but also come and go in a hurry, gossip and leave, and there has never been a stay in this courtyard, which makes Princess Mingyue, who has gone through personnel, inevitably have some resentment, at this time, I saw that Li Zhen finally came once, I liked it tightly in my heart, but when I heard that Li Zhen was open-mouthed, I couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry, pinched Li Zhen fiercely, and ran back to the room with my head down.
"Haha......" Li Zhen looked at Princess Mingyue's back like a frightened deer, and immediately laughed proudly, and waved her hand at the noisy maids: "You all stand down." As soon as the words fell, regardless of the reactions of the subordinates, the thief broke into Princess Mingyue's boudoir with a smile.
"Xiao Yue'er, Xiao Yue'er." Li Zhen called upside down, pushed the door straight in, sat down on the couch, and shouted endlessly.
"Your Highness, you first drink a bowl of sour plum soup to sober up." Princess Mingyue really loved Li Zhen, although she was annoyed that she didn't hide her words, but she was sweet to Li Zhen in her heart, and at this time, seeing that Li Zhen was really a little drunk, she hurriedly poured a bowl of sour plum soup prepared in the room to cool off, held it with both hands, and handed it to Li Zhen's lips.
Princess Mingyue is already beautiful, fair-skinned, and her little hands are as delicate as jade carvings, and Li Zhen, who is drunk and dizzy, can't help but open her mouth and say: "Xiao Yue'er, you are so beautiful, this king has a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?" ”
Listening to Li Zhen's heartfelt anger, Princess Mingyue's heart immediately became crispy, her hand trembled, and she almost knocked over a bowl of sour plum soup on Li Zhen's body, fortunately, although Li Zhen was drunk, she reacted very quickly, and she the jade bowl that was about to be turned over, and smiled, raised her head and drank the sour plum soup, and then held the bowl behind her, looking at Princess Mingyue straight to joy.
Princess Mingyue couldn't lift her head when Li Zhen saw it, her face was red, she lowered her head and said, "Your Highness, the wine hurts your body a lot, you ......"
"It's okay, it's okay, hehe, even if there is no wine, when this king sees Xiao Yue'er, I'm afraid I'll get drunk." Li Zhen laughed, put Yuwan aside casually, stretched out her hand and took Princess Mingyue into her arms, felt the amazing elasticity of Princess Mingyue's body, and then smelled the faint fragrance from Princess Mingyue's body, Li Zhen was already intoxicated, and her hands began to be a little dishonest, climbing snowy mountains and crossing grasslands, and she was very busy.
Princess Mingyue has tasted it, and as soon as Li Zhen teased her, she immediately became panting, and said with a sigh of relief: "Good person, don't worry, Yue'er is yours, oh, ah......"
Li Zhen has been holding back for many months, at this time, when she heard that Princess Mingyue was so delicate/panting, how could she still bear it, and immediately held Princess Mingyue to push the golden mountain, poured jade/pillar like a couch, regardless of the few thin clothes on Princess Mingyue's body, and grabbed Princess Mingyue's bright red lips, just inhaled, and already inhaled a small fragrant tongue into her mouth, topping, sucking, rolling, picking, wiping, doing her best to tease, a pair of big hands rubbed on the two soft balls, kneading, twisting, caressing, busy, Poor Princess Mingyue has just experienced a person, how can she withstand Li Zhen's rubbing/rubbing, her eyes are immediately full of peach blossoms, her face is so red that she almost wants to drop blood, her whole body is all scattered, and she puts on a posture of letting Jun pick up, which is even more exciting Li Zhen's eyes are full of blood, and she quickly removed all the obstacles on her body, picked up her gun and got on the horse, galloped, and for a while the sound of war was thunderous, and the room was full of spring, how can you be "crazy"......
A "vicious battle" from the time of the unitary time to the time of the Xu, this is the cloud harvest rain rest horse put Nanshan, swords and guns into the warehouse, Rao is Li Zhen since childhood martial arts to boil out of a good body, after this battle, plus the alcohol on the head, at this time is generally out of strength, in addition to panting on the couch, is the fingertips are too lazy to move, as for Princess Mingyue is even more unbearable, the whole body is softly nestled on Li Zhen's chest, panting like a gossamer, a pair of peach blossom eyes full of fatigue.
"Your Highness." Princess Mingyue is a woman in the end, she recovers quickly, most of the time, she was the first to recover her breath, and she didn't get up, so she lay on Li Zhen's chest and called softly.
"Huh?" Li Zhen is really tired these days, and she has just experienced such a big battle, so she wants to fall asleep in a drowsy mood, and when she hears Princess Mingyue's voice, she just hums from her nose, and it can be regarded as a response.
"Your Royal Highness, concubine, concubine ......" Princess Mingyue had a hint of struggle on her face, but after hesitating for a while, she gritted her teeth and said: "Your Highness, the concubine's father sent someone to let the concubine try to persuade the prince to let my father let me go, although the concubine did not agree to this, but, after all, the father is the biological father of the concubine, the concubine, the concubine ......"
Although Princess Mingyue didn't finish the words, Li Zhen completely understood, and her heart suddenly sank, and she was originally very sleepy and immediately went to seven or eight points, and a wave of anger suddenly surged - Li Zhen came from later generations, and knew that it was a taboo for the dynasty to interfere in the harem, and in the time and space where Li Zhen came from, the Han and Ming dynasties all died because of this, and the Tang Dynasty was also buried because of the chaos in the harem. The first rule of the royal house rules formulated by Li Zhen is that the backyard is not allowed to participate in government affairs, although Princess Mingyue has not officially passed the door, but in the house for a long time, how can she not know this iron law, at this time came forward for the Guizi Guoguan to say, obviously knowingly offended, is waiting to be reprimanded, but there is a heart to bear, in addition to just experiencing some love, but also considering the origin of Princess Mingyue, after all, as Princess Mingyue, sandwiched between her father and husband, it is really difficult for her, Li Zhen is not hard-hearted, This scolding voice is unspeakable no matter what, but I don't want to break the iron law I have set because of this, I frowned and thought for a while, and then I tried to keep a calm voice and said: "Xiao Yue'er, this king knows the difficulties of Er, according to the iron law of my palace, this king should not have told you more about government affairs, today is just an exception, you must know that there is no family affection between countries, and some are just conflicts of interest, Er's father knows that Er is in this palace, but he has not taken care of Er's safety, taking advantage of the bitter war between this king and the Western Turks, brazenly sent troops to invade our state and county, plundering my people, this crime is not unforgivable, however, this king is not an unreasonable person, your father has admitted his mistake, this king will not be too much, however, this is just to give Xiao Yue'er face, if there is a recidivism, this king can not tolerate even if he is generous, you can reply to your father like this. ”
Princess Mingyue saw Li Zhen's face change before, she knew that she had violated the iron law, and she was uneasy, and she was afraid that Li Zhen would leave with her sleeves up, and when she heard Li Zhen say that she would let go of the Guizi Kingdom once, she was immediately overjoyed, raised her head, and looked at Li Zhen with gratitude in her eyes and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, the concubine is ......."
Li Zhen didn't wait for Princess Mingyue to finish speaking, put a finger on Princess Mingyue's lips, interrupted Princess Mingyue's words, shook her head slightly and said: "You must remember that this kind of thing can not be repeated, this king does not want to hear about military and political matters again, if there is a recidivism, you must know that the family law is ruthless, and this king can not follow his own interests." ”
Princess Mingyue was ashamed and ashamed, her eyes were red, and tears flowed down her white jade-like cheeks, choked and couldn't speak, but nodded lightly, indicating that she understood.
Alas, the emperor's family looks glorious and rich, who knows the bitterness in the hearts of the children of the heavenly family, even if they are relatives, but for the sake of state affairs, how much family affection can be worthwhile? Li Zhen looked at Princess Mingyue's tearful appearance, and felt a little unbearable in her heart, but considering the tranquility of the backyard in the future, she still got up and got dressed, regardless of Princess Mingyue still sobbing in a low voice, she went out without looking back, and walked to the study with a blue face.
"Hey, why did Your Highness turn back, could it be that the grapes are sour today?" Mo Li, who was busy in the pile of documents in the study, heard Li Zhen's footsteps walking into the study, raised his head, glanced at Li Zhen, and made a casual quip.
Li Zhen naturally knew that she couldn't hide Mo Li's matter of running to Princess Mingyue's courtyard by herself, and when she heard Mo Li's jokes, she blushed rarely, and ignored Mo Li's teasing, faked a cough, strode to her desk and sat down, and didn't talk to Mo Li, just picked up an official document and pretended to look at it, with a posture of devoting herself to business.
"Ahem, ahem, Your Highness, you have taken the official document down." When Mo Li saw Li Zhen's appearance, he immediately guessed that there must be something hidden in it, made a grimace, and also faked a few coughs, and reminded with a serious face.
"Huh?" When Li Zhen heard this, she was stunned at first, and then looked at the official document in her hand, but suddenly found that she had not taken down the official document, and immediately knew that Mo Li must have seen through his own thoughts, which was a deliberate interruption, and at this time, Li Zhen couldn't pretend to be able to go on, haha smiled, threw the official document to the side casually, glanced at Mo Li and said: "It's right to call Mr. Yes, this grape is a little sour, hehe." ”
"Aha, let me guess, well, it must be that group who is deeply afraid that His Highness will send troops to attack, this is the way to find his daughter, persuade his son-in-law to be merciful, uh-huh, His Highness's old man is very calculating." Mo Li smiled, put down the official document in his hand, picked up the feather fan that was placed aside and shook it, and said casually while shaking.
"Hehe, I know I can't hide it from Mr., yes, that's the case." Li Zhen shrugged her shoulders helplessly and said, "This king also agreed to Princess Mingyue's feelings, of course, this matter is not an example." ”
Mo Li closed his right eye, laughed and said, "Your Highness, your son-in-law is really not authentic, the old man is going to be pitted by you this time." ”
Er, this dead old Mo, why do you speak, this is not a little ugly! Li Zhen knew that he couldn't hide Mo Li's calculations, and in desperation, he had to smile bitterly and said: "How can it, this king is giving that class a chance to repent, if he can't catch it, then how can he blame this king." ”
"Hahaha......" Mo Li was amused by Li Zhen's embarrassing appearance, and pointed at Li Zhen with a feather fan and said: "Yes, yes, His Royal Highness is magnanimous, a certain admiration, hahaha......"
"Hehe......" Li Zhen sneered, not wanting to continue the topic, after all, the son-in-law secretly set up a trap for his father-in-law, no matter how he said it, it was not a glorious thing, even if it was an absolute henchman like Mo Li, Li Zhen really didn't want to talk about this matter, at this time, seeing Mo Li's hearty smile, he hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Mr. Mo, this king has reached an agreement with Tubo today, in your opinion, can it pass the court discussion?" ”
Although Mo Li did not participate in the banquet to entertain the Tibetan envoys, he already knew the content of the conversation, although he understood that Li Zhen asked about this matter at this time, and left and right was just a means to change the topic, but he still pondered for a while before he spoke: "Commerce, printing Buddhist scriptures and other things are easy to do, the only thing that is slightly troublesome is the matter of buying slaves, but it is not difficult to really pass the court discussion, His Royal Highness has not received Yongye Tian since the opening of the palace, and the generals in the palace are generally like this, in terms of His Royal Highness's actual seal of 3,300 households, That is, more than 10,000 people, plus the share of the little prince and the generals, how can it be counted that there are about 20,000 shade households, it makes sense to act in this name, and it makes sense in the court, but Your Majesty is afraid that it is a little difficult to do. ”
What Mo Li said is not easy to do, Li Zhen couldn't understand it very well - the reason why Li Zhen insisted on not taking Yongye Tian and not engaging in those real sealed shade households was that he was worried about being criticized, after all, 3,300 shade households are enough to form a group of more than 3,000 elite soldiers, if you play some small tricks, it is not impossible to rectify an army of 10,000 people, and now Li Zhen already has 15,000 troops in his hands, if he makes so many private soldiers, even if the courtiers do not criticize, the old man is afraid that he will also make a joke, This kind of thing is not what a wise man should do.
"Well, what Mr. said this king knows, however, this king's move is beneficial to the country, and the merit is in the future, I think my father will understand my king's intentions, and this king intends to tell all the facts together, and my father will make a decision." On the one hand, the construction of Anxi does require a lot of labor, on the other hand, Li Zhen is laying maggots on Songtsen Gampo - Tubo does not prohibit the slave trade, then Li Zhen will buy a lot, and he will buy it even if he is not at a loss, without him, after all, the productivity of Tubo is all supported by slaves, once a large number of slaves are lost, its productivity will inevitably decline significantly, so that Tubo has only two ways to go - one is to completely offend Li Zhen, cut off the trade exchanges with the Tang Dynasty, so as to keep the slaves from continuing to lose, but the problem is that when Tubo finds out that something is wrong, the productivity has already been greatly damaged, besides, the clans and tribes of Tubo and Songtsen Gampo are not completely of the same mind, even if Songtsen Gampo ordered that those clan and tribe leaders are not allowed to sell slaves, but they may not be able to stop those nobles who are used to living a luxurious life in order to continue to get the luxury goods from the Tang Dynasty and trade with Li Zhen privately, so that Tubo can do only one thing, That is, to wage war abroad, plunder the population of other countries to fill the shortage of their own labor, look around Tubo, only Tuyuhun is the unlucky guy who can make Tubo powerful, only the war together, Li Zhen has his own means to profit from it, but he is not afraid that Tubo can go against the sky, once Tubo and Tuyuhun are defeated, it will be time for Li Zhen to come forward to clean up the mess.
"What His Highness said is reasonable, Your Majesty is a wise lord, and you should be able to see the pros and cons, but this matter is related to the national system, and Your Highness can't bend it openly, just fold it secretly." Mo Li knew Li Zhen's overall arrangement, but he was not completely sure that Li Shimin would adopt such a vicious suggestion, but it was not good to say anything about it, so he just shook the feather fan, indifferently agreed, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness has invited the Tubo envoys to a banquet today, Tuyuhun should be in a hurry, it's time to meet with him." ”
"Oh, it's okay, I'll see you early tomorrow morning, this big show is really not good to sing without their cooperation." The Tuyuhun envoys have been here for seven or eight days, Li Zhen has always ignored them, let alone going out of the city to greet the marquis, and even the door of the capital Hufu did not let them in......
