The sky, pouring with the autumn rain, washed away the ups and downs on the leaves, and also washed the glazed tiles of the eaves. In the past half a month, the autumn rain has been intermittent, the weather has never been clear, in the city of Changsha, the noisy city in the past, now there are only a handful of figures, and people's minds also want to be the same as this sky, gloomy and gloomy.
Reishun-in.
The king of Chu was concentrating on practicing calligraphy, and Liu Yan, who was standing next to him, polished the ink again and again, shook his head and admired it. The king of Chu calmly pressed the last horizontal of the word "and" heavily. Then he admired it for a while, handed the pen to Liu Yan, and asked thoughtfully: "Liu Yan, how do you look at the writing of the word "and"?" ”
"The king, how can the old slave know calligraphy, but I often hear Mr. Higashino say that the king's calligraphy is 'square and solemn, simple and majestic', the old slave looks at it like this, and also feels that it is written majesticly, which makes people look open-minded and energetic."
King Chu smiled and said: "Don't brag too much, this 'square is solemn and upright, simple and majestic' is Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy, and I can't learn it in my life." ”
"King, there are many opportunities for the day, you can only take time to practice calligraphy, how can you practice calligraphy every day like that Yan Zhenqing, if you can't write well every day, then you are mediocre."
King Chu pointed at Liu Yan, shook his head and smiled: "Yan Lugong is as unbearable as you say." At this moment, there were hurried footsteps in the courtyard, and the king of Chu hurriedly raised his head, looked outside, and asked the little eunuch who walked in: "But the fifth child came to intercede for Yun'er?" Lao Wu has always loved Yun'er, calculate the time, he should also come. ”
Liu Yan's heart jumped, after all, it was the relationship between father and son, how could the king of Chu be ruthless and punish the five princes, the king of Chu has been in a bad mood these days, I am afraid that he is waiting for hundreds of officials to write a letter to intercede. However, it has been three days, except for Ma Guangliang and the princess, and Peng Shihui, no one has come to intercede for the fifth prince, not even Ma Yun's master Tuoba Heng. And which three people in front had to come, Ma Guangliang and the princess are family affection, this Peng Shihui is Peng Shuang's brother, and the Peng family was heavily favored by Ma Yun back then.
King Chu's gaze was so eager, that the little eunuch who didn't come shrank his head and said, "King Bing, it's not General Zuo who is here, it's Lord Li Jie Li who is here." ”
"Oh, he's sent Li Tang back. Let him in. ”
This Li Jie is Li Gao's younger brother. Since last year, the Han State in Lingnan has often sent troops to Guizhou and other places under the jurisdiction of Great Chu, which has made Great Chu very annoying, but the relationship between Great Chu and Li Tang is not good, Ma Xifan is worried that Li Tang will take advantage of the situation, so he does not dare to move the army south, give Han a good look, and is unwilling to be so deadlocked, falling into the prestige of Great Chu. So, more than a month ago, he reluctantly followed Li Gao's suggestion and sent an envoy to Li Tang to express his respect for Da Chu, release a signal of reconciliation, and ease the relationship between Da Chu and Li Tang. Li Jie is that messenger.
Under the guidance of the eunuchs, Li Jie came to the hall of Lichun Courtyard, he quietly glanced at the slightly haggard King of Chu, and said with a full heart: "Minister, Li Jie, the envoy Li Tang has been completed, and he has come to meet the king." "The king of Chu is in a bad mood, Li Jie is in a good mood, and before he returned to Changsha City today, his brother Li Gao secretly met him and reported the situation in Changsha City, everything went according to plan, and everything was OK together.
"Li Jing, what does he think of our proposal?" King Chu asked.
"Great King, after the minister arrived in Jinling, Li Tang and his subordinates agreed with my proposal to Da Chu, but they had some conditions?"
"Oh, what's the condition?" King Chu asked indifferently. Negotiation is like buying something, and it is definitely a bargain.
"They want to marry my Da Chu."
The king of Chu sneered: "The widow has only one daughter, and she is already married to Xizhou, how can you marry them?" Hmph, this kind of thing has never been very reliable, look at my sixth sister, married to the Han Kingdom, but the old Han King just died, this little nephew of the Han Kingdom, didn't come to rob his uncle. ”
"King, it's Li Tang who wants to marry his daughter."
King Chu was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "However, my three eldest sons are already married, so it is impossible to let this princess of Li Tang marry as a concubine." ”
Li Jie's body shook, these words...
Liu Yan, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but glance at King Chu, since he said so, the five princes should have nothing to do. I'm afraid that it won't be long before people who intercede for the five princes will come in droves. After all, it was his own flesh and blood, how fierce the trouble was at that time, but it was only a few days, and the king of Chu had changed.
There was silence in the hall, except for the sound of rain outside the hall.
Li Jie coughed and asked, "The king, as far as the minister knows, the fifth prince is still not married yet." ”
King Chu's eyes moved to Li Jie's face outside the hall carelessly. Looking at Li Jie's puzzled expression, he looked at him in a daze, and after looking at each other for a few seconds, King Chu finally looked away and said, "This is not appropriate, Yun'er is already married." I really can't do it, so let's leave it at that. ”
How can it be such a child's play on a major military event, besides, Li Gao and they have been planning this for a long time. Li Jie thought for a while and said, "King, but Li Tang has already spread the news, and even the wedding date has been set." He also sent the greeting envoy Chen Jue Chen, and the deputy envoy of Li Tang, the official residence of Lord Chen. These words vaguely reminded the King of Chu: The privy deputy envoy is the deputy marshal of the national soldiers and horses, this official position is not small, and sending him here is enough to show that Li Tang attaches great importance to this matter.
"What? Didn't he marry his daughter, why should he set the wedding date? How do you do things? King Chu glared at Li Jie and said dissatisfied.
Li Jie was sweating a little on his head, this thing was not easy to do.
The reason why Li Gao and the others dare to deceive their superiors and subordinates so much is that they have too deep understanding of the King of Chu. What kind of person is the King of Chu, Li Gao has already analyzed it in detail. Wumu Wang Ma Yin was born poor, is a carpenter, or an apprentice, although after a hundred battles, only to occupy the land of Chu, but also named the king of Chu, but he still felt that he was a martial artist in his heart, for fear of losing the heart of the scholar, so he established the Tiance Mansion, set up the position of eighteen bachelors, signaling the world, the great Chu attaches importance to the literati, he hates himself for studying, and he is careful to cultivate several sons. Ma Xifan's writing is quite good, and it is thanks to this. Ma Xifan has a good ancient style, and after becoming the king of Chu, he reused a literati like Li Gao, who was also influenced by Ma Yin's requirements for knowledge and knowledge, to put it bluntly, Ma Xifan, the king of Chu, basically hoped to follow the Confucian method in everything.
Therefore, once the king of Chu knows that Ma Yun got married without permission, he will definitely be thunderous. This kind of behavior is tantamount to a slap in the face to the King of Chu on the spot, and what he has held on to for decades is gone. In this case, even if the king of Chu will not take Ma Yun to the end, he will definitely punish Ma Yun heavily, if he proposes to send Ma Yun to Li Tang at this time, let him be tempered repeatedly, the king of Chu will agree, and as soon as Ma Yun arrives in Li Tang, he will use a little trick to make him a hostage in Li Tang, and he will no longer have the ability and opportunity to win the heir.
However, after all, the king of Chu has been in power for many years, and he can see the disadvantages of this marriage at a glance. And his love for Ma Yun, or the importance of his son's safety, is much greater than the face of the literati. What should I do?
What's more, Li Jie and the others wanted to use Li Tang's power to force the King of Chu to submit, so they tried every means to get Li Tang's envoys to come over. But this matter, if the negotiation fails, and the king of Chu loves his son and is unwilling to marry, then the two countries will lose peace and fight each other, and when Ma Guangliang loses his car to protect the handsome, then he Li Jie will be doomed.
"Please forgive the king, but Li Tang's envoy, Lord Chen Jue, has already come?"
King Chu looked at Li Jie, finally couldn't bear to scold, sighed, and said, "You go and probe his tone and see if you can retreat." ”
Looking at Li Jie's back, the King of Chu was silent for a long time before asking, "How many days is today?" ”
Liu Yan hurriedly bowed his head and replied, "King, the fifth prince has been locked up for three days today. ”
King Chu looked at the drizzle outside the window, and asked after a while, "What do you think of the fifth child?" ”
Liu Yan secretly glanced at the King of Chu, and saw that the King of Chu had a calm face, his eyes were blazing, and he didn't know what he was thinking. So, Liu Yan pondered and said, "Fifth Prince, he... He is a... Good. ”
"Oh," King Chu retracted his gaze and smiled dumbly: "Hey, it seems that I am asking inhuman." In the past, Lao Wu made a mistake, and the person who interceded for him had already broken the threshold, but this time, in addition to the two of them, there was also Peng Shihui, and there was no one in the Manchu Dynasty who interceded for him. ”
Liu Yan stood as if he hadn't heard this at all.
The king of Chu thought for a while, then turned around and sat back in his seat and said, "Liu Yan, go to the prison of the torture room to pass the decree and let the fifth child out." Taijia is brutal, and there is still a chance to repent, not to mention the fifth child, he just contradicted me a few words. How can a son not contradict his father? The weather is too humid these days, and I'm afraid the quilts in the prison are moldy, let him come out. ”
Liu Yan bowed his head and said "yes", turned around and was about to announce the decree, when the king of Chu suddenly opened his mouth and said: "Old Fifth Aiwu, go, go to my dormitory, take the dragon sword over, and make a sword for him." Let him come over tomorrow, I will ask about the situation in Nanping, and let him go to Jiangling. In this muddy water in Changsha, he is a good martial artist, and it is good if he doesn't go. ”
