Most of the children of the Tang royal family have mansions and fiefs outside the palace when they become adults, and the mansions and fiefs of the princes and princesses who are particularly favored are also larger, and some princes and princesses even have thousands of households at every turn, and they have become big landowners as soon as they become adults.

Princess Wanchun is a clear stream in the world of princes and princesses.

She still lives in Xingqing Palace when she becomes an adult, and because she has always been unwilling to marry, Li Longji loves her very much, so she has to let it go.

said that she was a clear stream because she never pointed fingers at the government and government, and she never took money by chance. In her world, power and money are very small things, and she likes a carefree life, a noisy night party, and the freedom to do whatever she wants.

The most important thing is that her private life is not as erosive as other princes and princesses, her private life is very clean, although she is a nightclub queen, she will return to the palace at the end of the day, and she will never have an affair with any man at the night banquet.

The only time in his life was planted in Gu Qing's hands, and he was accidentally looked at by him.

Wan Chun is a frequent visitor to the Calyx Building, he is not very old but also has a rough rhythm, and occasionally he plays "Ni Clothes and Feather Clothes" with Li Longji, and even learned to dance for this.

Leading the eunuch into the calyx building, Li Longji was sitting barefoot cross-legged on the futon, Yang Guifei poured wine for him with a smile, the building was a song and dance, and the music of silk and bamboo was accompanied by the dancing dancers, which embellished the magnificent calyx building more and more extravagantly.

There are charcoal fires in several large copper tripods in the building, which bakes the temperature in the building a little high, Li Longji looks quite unruly and famous, exposing his chest, untying his clothes, and even his hair bun is scattered on his shoulders, his eyes are half drunk leaning on Yang Guifei's side, hugging Yang Guifei and squinting to enjoy the song and dance.

Li Longji is no longer young, his muscles have slackened, his skin has aged, his belly has bulged, and old age spots have gradually grown on his face.

Seeing Wan Chun walk in proudly, Li Longji opened his drunken eyes and smiled heartily: "My foreign girl is here, haha, come and drink with me." ”

Wan Chun saluted first, and then sat beside Li Longji unceremoniously, seeing Yang Guifei pouring wine for Li Longji with a smile, Wan Chun glanced at her and said, "The noble concubine rarely lets her father drink, and looks at her father's belly, it looks like a wine barrel." ”

Yang Guifei smiled: "Even if I don't let him drink, he won't listen to me." ”

Li Longji snorted and said: "I heard from the courtiers below that after Li Taibai resigned from the palace, he made a new work, called "Will Enter the Wine", which has a sentence "Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon", this sentence is especially heartfelt, life is short, why not do what I want, not in vain in the next life, haha." ”

Wan Chun snorted: "What my father said is crooked, that Li Taibai is not a serious person, I heard that he is a prodigal, ignorant of etiquette, and a drunkard, and only a person who is addicted to alcohol can make such distorted verses." ”

Li Longji sighed leisurely: "Li Taibai...... Talent is excellent, his poetry is said to be the first in the Tang Dynasty is not an exaggeration, I have always liked his poems, but I don't like him as a person, throughout the ages, there are many people who are proud of their talents, Li Taibai's arrogant reputation is as famous as his poems, such a person will not live long in the court, so he wanted to resign back then, and I agreed to it. ”

Yang Guifei said quietly: "Li Taibai's poem is indeed the first in the world, and the concubine still remembers the poem he wrote for me, 'Yun Xiang Clothes and Flowers Want to Look', and the concubine still has a long aftertaste." ”

Li Longji sighed: "My Tang Dynasty is inclusive of all rivers and rivers, inclusive of all things, and can accommodate any talented person in the world, but Li Taibai can't tolerate it, it's a pity that the talent ......"

Yang Guifei said softly and comfortingly: "Your Majesty, Li Taibai is a special case, his talent is too high, he can carry him enough arrogance, there is only one Li Taibai in the Tang Dynasty, and there is only one person who cannot be accommodated in the court." Your Majesty has no pity, in addition to him, there are many talents in the Tang Dynasty, such as Gu Qing, his poetry talent is no less than Li Taibai, and the concubine still remembers what he wrote, 'I wish to be a winged bird in heaven, and I am willing to be a branch in the earth', and the love in the world is all in the poem......"

Li Longji laughed loudly, and Wan Chun, who was silent on the side, heard Gu Qing's name, his eyes lit up, and he unconsciously bent into a crescent moon.

"Gu Qing, haha, yes, Gu Qing is indeed a talent, especially if he can be used by me, he is not very old, it is rare to be a person who knows how to advance and retreat, understands proportions, is much better than Li Taibai, and it is not bad to be the boss, more than 20,000 people have been annihilated in Tibet, and the Tang Dynasty has not had a big victory for many years, there are still subjects in Chang'an City who praise Gu Qing's exploits, and there is also brilliance on my face, both civil and military, and there is a basis for advancing and retreating, he is my Huo Quai, haha."

Seeing that Li Longji was happy, Wan Chun took the opportunity to say: "Father, just now my daughter stopped a eunuch outside the palace and handed it over, it was sent ......by Gu Qing, the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu."

Li Longji was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded her forehead in disgust, and said in a doting tone: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" Anxi is the gateway to the west of the Tang Dynasty, Gu Qing handed it over to Shu, there is a big event, take it to me. ”

Wan Chun handed over Gu Qing's recital, and suddenly covered his mouth and smiled: "His words...... Hee-hee, it's ugly. ”

Li Longji glared at her, then opened the song, and when he saw the first line, he was stunned, silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Gu Qing's words...... It's so ugly, well, it's ugly. Could it be that talented people in the world always have such and such problems? Isn't there a perfect person? Look at his stinky words, where it seems to be a world-famous genius, it is clearly written by a young child who has just entered the school. ”

Shaking his head and sighing, Li Longji endured his nausea and continued to watch the music, and then his face suddenly froze, his expression gradually became solemn, halfway through it, Li Longji suddenly raised his head and raised his voice: "General Gao, let the song and dance stop!" ”

Behind him, Colis hurriedly clapped his hands and waved his hand for Kabuki and musicians to exit the Calyx Tower.

After speaking, Li Longji looked at Yang Guifei and Wan Chun, and was about to speak with a hesitant expression, but Wan Chun shook his arm and said coquettishly: "Father, what Gu Qing said in the song, let her daughter listen to it, maybe her daughter can come up with ideas for her father and relieve her father's worries." ”

Li Longji smiled helplessly, but Yang Guifei rarely interfered in the government affairs, and was about to retire with interest, when she suddenly found that Wan Chun threw a look at her.

The second daughter is called a stepmother and stepdaughter, but she is of the same age, she has been a best friend for many years, and she has already had a tacit understanding, receiving Wan Chun's eyes, Yang Guifei was stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly: "San Lang, the concubine is reluctant to leave, if it is not a confidential matter, you might as well say that you can listen to the concubine and the eyelashes, the eyelashes are right, maybe we can also come up with ideas for San Lang." ”

Li Longji thought about it, but after all, he was reluctant to drive them away, so he said slowly: "What Gu Qing played is indeed a very confidential matter,...... It is related to the century-old disaster of Datang, if it is calculated, it can be settled in one fell swoop, and the southwest of Datang will never have to worry about it. ”

Yang Guifei said curiously: "The southwest of the Tang Dynasty is...... Tibetan? Could it be that what Gu Qing played was a strategy to level Tibet? ”

Li Longji smiled: "That's right, the young man is really sharp and bold, but after careful consideration, it doesn't seem to be reckless, but quite reasonable......"

Saying that, Li Longji whispered Gu Qing's flat Tubo strategy, and after finishing speaking, the two goddesses were shocked, but Li Longji's expression was a little complicated.

After a long time, Yang Guifei said in surprise: "Gu Qing, he ...... What a boldness! San Lang, is this plan feasible? ”

Li Longji hesitated: "This plan...... It is difficult for me to say whether it is feasible, looking at the pros and cons listed above, it seems quite feasible, this plan is not the bloody battle of the Tang Dynasty soldiers, but the bloodless slaughter of its grain and grass, cut off its crops, if you follow this, if nothing else, after three or five years, the grain in Tubo can no longer meet the needs of the people and the army, then I will rejuvenate the king and conquer it. ”

Yang Guifei said happily: "Since you must win, why did San Lang hesitate? Wouldn't it be better to follow Gu Qing's plan? ”

Li Longji smiled bitterly: "Lady, how can it be so simple, although this plan does not require the soldiers to fight desperately, but it also needs the country's manpower and material resources to implement, in order to paralyze the monarch and powerful landlords of Tubo, in the past three or five years, the Tang Dynasty must be friendly with it diplomatically, and then supply grain and grass at a low price, so that they can relax their vigilance, and occupy the cultivated land without any scruples to plant the so-called medicinal materials, until the grain produced by the cultivated land in Tubo can no longer support the people and the army, so that the army can be conquered and Tubo will be included in the ......territory of my Tang Dynasty."

"This plan is feasible, but the price to be paid by the Tang Dynasty is not small, although the Tang Dynasty is now a prosperous era that everyone praises, but the treasury may not be able to afford enough food to supply Tibet, once the supply is cut off, the Tubo people will be alert, then it will fall short, the price paid can not recover half of the results, the risk is too great."

Li Longji pondered for a long time, and sighed with a wry smile: "This Gu Qing, the plan is so bold, it can make me worry and sad thousands of miles away, I am already dying, my ambition has long been exhausted, and the price to pay is too great, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a big gamble with the luck of the Tang Kingdom, it is rare to be prosperous, I ...... I can't afford to gamble. ”

Wan Chun couldn't help but be a little anxious when he saw that Li Longji's words seemed to have a negative meaning.

She doesn't know much about state affairs and politics, but she has an inexplicable unreasonable trust in Gu Qing, she feels that Gu Qing's idea must be good, it must have taken him a lot of effort to come up with, and it must be able to sweep away a hundred years of trouble for the Tang Dynasty, and it must not be rejected by her father with a word.

How sad it would have been if he had learned that his offer had been rejected by the Son of Heaven in Anxi, thousands of miles away.

So Wan Chunmei blinked and threw a pleading glance at Yang Guifei.

Yang Guifei is very clear about the little affection between Wan Chun and Gu Qing, but this matter in front of her is too important, it is related to the luck of the Tang Dynasty, Yang Guifei didn't dare to come out indiscriminately because of her personal feelings, so she glanced at Wan Chun lightly, turned her head to look away, obviously didn't want to help her speak.

Wan Chun saw that Yang Guifei refused to help, and couldn't help but snort angrily, and then showed a look of pity, sighed leisurely, and seemed to mutter: "It's a pity that this is an excellent strategy, if the century-old troubles of the Tang Dynasty can be calmed in the hands of the father, not only the subjects will bow to the father, but the Qingshi will also be full of beauty for the achievements of the father, and when the ancestors and emperors of the Tang Dynasty are commemorated in the future, the father will rule the prosperous world, in addition to the work of the century-old disaster, I am afraid that his merit is no less than that of the first emperor of Taizong Gaozong, and the father at that time should be called 'the first emperor of the ages', right?" ”
