Chapter 41: Baiyue Comes to China
The princess of Baiyue Kingdom, when she went to Chang'an City, was naturally received with the highest standard, and her arrival represented a country.
Just as the foreign ministers came to the Tang Dynasty, they were all personally received by the Tang King, not that his position was higher than that of the Son of Heaven, but that behind her was the king, which was equivalent to a country.
The foreign minister presented the table book to the court, and the Tang king looked at the table book on the court.
When his gaze drifted, King Tang looked at his courtiers, and finally fell on the princess of Baiyue Kingdom.
King Tang raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression was slightly solemn, and he asked, "Princess, as stated in Fang Zhenguan's book, your trip is to find medicine, but your medicine is really ridiculous?" ”
The princess of Baiyue replied: "The horse said that if you want to cure the evil disease on my body, you can't cure it unless this medicine. ”
"I wonder where your colt is?" Tang Wang asked, he seemed to have something to say.
"He was waiting outside the temple." The princess said.
"Since you are a concubine, why don't you come to the palace with the princess, come quickly!!" When King Tang said this, it can be seen that his face seems to be displeased, and he should have known the identity of the horse.
Not long after, when Yang Fan stepped on the stairs of Dali Temple, he walked step by step to the place where his dreams were shattered.
It was here that he was deposed and exiled by the Tang Dynasty and sent to Cochin (present-day Vietnam), and after years of hard work, he once again achieved a magnificent turnaround.
Yang Fan used money to buy others, and in the name of a miracle doctor, he recommended him to go to the palace of Baiyue Kingdom to treat the princess and heal his injuries, and since then he has opened his career.
In order to ascend to the throne, he did whatever it took to marry a sick princess, and finally became the concubine of the princess of Baiyue Kingdom.
In this regard, the king of Baiyue Kingdom was very happy, the princess was the pearl of his palm, and he was worried about her. However, the daughter is in the cardamom years, which is the age of marriage, but the princess has a strange illness and has been delayed for life.
The king was sad when Yang Fan proposed to take the initiative to marry the princess, and the king strongly agreed.
He also put part of Baiyue's military and political rights in his hands, and Yang Fan, who was ambitious as a wolf, did not seem to be satisfied, he seemed to be planning a bigger conspiracy.
When Yang Fan once again set foot on the palace of Daming Palace, the government and the opposition suddenly caused an uproar.
"How is he?"
"Wasn't he relegated to Cochin?"
"He turned out to be a colt of Baiyue Kingdom?"
……
There was a lot of discussion among the ministers, and it was clear that after all these years, many people still remembered him.
At that time, Yang Fan could be described as a genius, a rare genius boy in the world, especially known for his literary talents, which could be described as a flourishing and unrivaled.
How did genius go to the point of no return? In the end, his future was ruined. It's just that I didn't expect him to return after a few years, and he came back again as a "colt" in another country, which couldn't help but surprise people.
Tang Wang was not surprised to see him walking slowly, his brows furrowed, and the eyes of the two looked at each other.
Just as he was down, Yang Fan stepped forward and said, "Baice Country, Yang Fan, meet the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty." ”
Without waiting for King Tang to speak, someone in the audience said: "Bold Yang Fan, why don't you kneel when you see Your Majesty?!" “
Yang Fan saluted, but instead of kneeling on the ground and buttoning his head, he stood and made a gesture, and the form was only provocative, which inevitably made people angry.
I saw that Yang Fan raised his head and broad chest, and sneered: "If this concubine is not mistaken, this should be Lord Zhao, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, I can't imagine that after so many years, you are still a little waiter, but you are also from the twenty-second year of Zhenguan, how can it be so bad?" Oh, it's a pity!! ”
These words have a deep meaning, on the surface they are sarcastic about the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, but in fact, they secretly ridicule Tang King Li Muchen for not being suitable for talents, and there is a great sense of contempt.
Li Muchen is not a mediocre and virtuous king, how can he not hear his voice, and many old ministers in the court also heard a deeper meaning, and they all frowned secretly, it seems that Yang Fan came this time because he was not good.
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites said: "The official position is not high or low, and the background does not distinguish between high and low, only the people are in the heart, what difference does it make to live in a position?" But you, when you see Your Majesty, standing without kneeling is a loss of courtesy for the monarch and ministers. ”
"Haha! What a courtesy? Yang Fan laughed and said, "May I ask Lord Zhao, I am the concubine of the Baiyue Kingdom, the monarch, for whom?" It is the king of my hundred crosses; The gift of Fang Xing is the national gift of Baiyue, so why not lose it? ”
Yang Fan's verbal argument, but few opponents, when he was studying in the country, he successfully entered the court with a mouth, and won the appreciation of many old ministers.
"This ......"
Between the three words, it is impossible for the waiter of the Ministry of Rites to speak. And the king of Tang said in a timely manner: "Yang Fan is a hundred Yue horses, naturally he is a hundred Yue national ceremony, why stick to this?" Don't argue about such trivial matters. ”
"Yes!!" Said the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.
"King Tang is King Tang, and it is really not comparable to those short-sighted courtiers, hehe!"
He laughed loudly and did not hide his low voice, clearly not taking Tang Wang in his eyes, and a chill flashed between Tang Wang's eyebrows, fleeting. Li Muchen sneered: "I heard the princess say, Yang Juma is a miracle doctor, do you know some medical skills?" This is the first time I've heard of it. ”
"I know a little bit about it, but I don't dare to call it a miracle doctor."
Li Muchen snorted and said, "I think you are not a miracle doctor, otherwise, how would you add a 'true dragon's blood' to the prescription." ”
Before, the strange medicine that Tang Wang said was worthy of this flavored medicine, the blood of the true dragon, is there really such a thing? Or is it something else?!
After all, the Son of Heaven called it a true dragon, and the blood of the true dragon was not Li Muchen's blood.
Being sarcastically ridiculed by King Tang in public, Yang Fan didn't feel angry, he said with a smile: "The emperor doesn't understand medicine, so naturally he doesn't know that there is a real dragon's blood in the world, this medicine is the only medicine to save the princess, and this time I came here for this medicine." ”
"Is there any real dragon in the world? It's all made up. Li Muchen said.
"No, no, the world is so big, how can there be no real dragon?" Yang Fan said, "Our sorcerers predicted that the true dragon would lurk in Chang'an City, so I waited thousands of miles to come to Chang'an just to find the dragon's blood. ”
I only heard King Tang laugh heartily, and when the voice stopped abruptly, he said: "It's ridiculous, if the real dragon lurks in Chang'an City, how can I not know?" ”
"You Baiyue Country is thousands of miles away, how can the wizards of Baiyue Kingdom know about the affairs in the Tang Dynasty?"
If there really is a real dragon in the world, then what is the Son of Heaven? The emperors of the ancients all regarded themselves as the 'true dragon son', could it be that the blood of the true dragon was the blood of the emperor?
How can such a bizarre and absurd statement be convincing?
"The Tang King is the Tang King of the world, in charge of the Tang Realm, the vast rivers and mountains that stretch for thousands of miles, ignoring the small Chang'an City under his nose, what's so strange?" Yang Fan said, "Besides, that dragon is very cunning, and no one will find out her trace, and it is not strange that King Tang does not know anything." ”
"So, you already have the information?" Tang Wang asked rhetorically.
Yang Fan didn't hide it, he said with a smile: "I can't talk about mastering it, but I just know one or two of them, after all, for the sake of the princess's illness, I, as a husband, must do everything myself." ”
These words moved the princess of Baiyue Kingdom, but to the sound of King Tang, it was really disgusting, this person was ruthless, unscrupulous, in order to get on the throne, even the wife who was going to marry could be sold to others, and the foreign princess was just a stepping stone for him to realize his ambitions.
also knew who he was, and King Tang didn't debunk it, pretending not to know and asking, "Oh? In this case, I wonder if Master Ma can share this news with me Datang? There are many people with great strength, if there is really a dragon in Chang'an, you can also get dragon blood for the princess as soon as possible, and exchange it for good medicine. ”
"What King Tang said is very true, this time I came here to ask you, and I will not hide the news." Yang Fan smiled slyly, no one knew what he was thinking in his heart, and he said: "This evil dragon has been lurking in Chang'an City for a while, and its movements are unpredictable and really cunning. ”
Compared with the real dragon, King Tang is more concerned: "You know the situation in Chang'an well, you are thousands of miles away, and you don't forget to care about the changes in our dynasty, so you don't bother the horse." ”
"It's such a trivial matter, why bother to say it? I did this all for the princess, and besides, as long as I have money, what's so difficult about inquiring about such a thing? For the sake of the princess's illness, no matter how much gold and silver is spent, I don't care. ”
Yang Fan said it lightly, and the person who spent the money was not him, but the king of Baiyue, and he was just saying flattering words and deliberately saying it to the princess.
Despite this, the princess of Baiyue Kingdom was so moved that she was about to cry, she was suffering from a serious illness, and it was not easy to find a man who treated her sincerely, not to mention that the concubine was so attentive to herself, how could she not be moved?
"So what? Has the real dragon locked his identity? Tang Wang asked, really not wanting to listen to his hypocrisy.
Yang Fan shook his head and said, "That's not true, but it's certain that the evil dragon is disguised as an ordinary person on weekdays, and it is also disguised as a woman." ”
King Tang's face was slightly stunned, and his expression was fleeting, flashing, but it still fell in Yang Fan's eyes.
Who is Li Muchen? The man who made Li Shimin feel so painful back then had already guessed something from Yang Fan's words.
If she didn't guess wrong, the 'evil dragon' that Yang Fan said in her mouth should be her.
Before, the two of them had met, and Tang Wang had always noticed that the aura on her body was different from that of humans, and it was déjà vu, but it was difficult to remember for a while.
"The princess's illness can't afford to delay, so let's go to the post station to rest for the time being, and the matter of catching the evil dragon is scheduled for three days, how about it?"
"Tang Wang Shengming, on behalf of the princess and the entire Baiyue, I have thanked Tang Wang for his great kindness." Yang Fan sneered.
After leaving the imperial city, he came to the post station where he stayed, and Yang Fan left the post station alone, not because of anything else, but because he heard that the Wenren family would have a good show tonight.
I heard that there is a wild boy who is going to Wen's house to propose marriage, so how could he be absent from such a good show?
