Chapter Twenty-Four: Not the Eighth King
Before his mind could come back to his senses, the strong man stopped his horse in a brightly lit courtyard and walked into Linchun Garden with Gu Qing in his hand, shouting in a loud voice, "Look, what did I catch halfway through?" ”
"What's that?"
Everyone in the courtyard looked over and saw Gu Qing who was carried in the air with a loveless face.
It's over, the hairstyle is messed up, and Gu Qing feels half cold in his heart.
Cheng Biting Jin let go of Gu Qing and fell to the ground, looking at the crowd in the courtyard, thinking that this way of appearing on the stage was not embarrassing, why not change your posture and do it again?
"Hahaha!" Cheng Yanjin laughed and said, "It's this doll, who fooled my big baby with a small bag of broken leaves, what do you think?" ”
"Too skinny!" Another middle-aged man said, "Boy, I heard that you made new paper?" Not bad, yes, the old man is in the country. ”
Gu Qing bowed repeatedly.
Qin Qiong, who was not far away, looked at Gu Qing and turned his face with a look of disgust.
Cheng Yanjin picked up Gu Qing and sat down, sandwiched on the wine table of a large group of generals, everyone here was drinking in a big wine bowl, one by one with a murderous aura, and turned his head to look at the civilian camp on the other side, there were many Sven there, I really wanted to go there......
"Little doll, look at it!" As soon as Cheng Yanjin slapped the wine table, he poured a bowl of wine for Gu Qing and drank, "Drink!" ”
Gollum ...... Swallowing a mouthful of saliva vigorously, Gu Qing looked at the bowl bigger than his face and couldn't put his mouth down, picked up the wine bowl and took a small sip of tea in front of a group of generals.
"How can the little doll drop, so unpleasant!" Cheng Yanjin slapped the wine table again, picked up the wine bowl and poured it into his mouth.
"Ahem, cough, cough ......" was poured a sip of wine, and Gu Qing coughed vigorously.
"Lao Cheng, people are still a child, what are you doing!" Qin Qiong said.
"Hey, hey......" Cheng Biting Jin smiled, "Look at this kid is also in his teens, as big as my doll, my doll can drink a jar at the age of eight!" ”
"Your dolls are calves! Can you compare it to ordinary children?! Niu Jinda also said.
Gu Qing wiped the wine on his face vigorously, drank it and drank it out, picked up the wine bowl and said, "The kid doesn't know the etiquette, don't be surprised by the uncles!" ”
It's like a bowl of wine!
"Good boy! Appetite for my old Cheng. Cheng Yanjin laughed, "Whahahahahahaha!" ”
This loud laugh probably spread a few streets.
"Before I arrived, I heard Lu Guogong's laughter." Li Shimin smiled and walked into the courtyard.
A group of civil ministers and military generals saluted one after another, "Ministers and others greet Your Majesty, Empress." ”
Gu Qing stood in the crowd and saluted, and Li Shimin said with a smile: "Excuse me, drink it all." ”
The emperor and queen walked into the courtyard and saw a group of princes and princesses following behind, the one standing in front should be the prince, and the fat man walking behind the prince gave Gu Qing a look.
It wasn't until the emperor and empress sat down that the military generals of the civil servants followed suit.
Quietly looked at the queen, this woman is not beautiful but has a very good temperament, noticing Gu Qing's eyes, she turned her head to look, Gu Qing hurriedly lowered her head.
The veterans were talking about things on the battlefield, and Gu Qing broke a chicken leg and gnawed on it.
Li Tai walked over to the side and gave Gu Qing a look, and after looking at the noisy generals, Gu Qing quietly left and came to the fat man's side, "What are you doing!" ”
"The Queen Mother wants to see you." Li Tai said.
Gu Qing followed Li Tai to the current queen, "Grass people Gu Qing, meet the queen." ”
Empress Eldest Sun smiled, "You are Gu Qing?" But I've read your poems, and there will be times when the wind and waves will be long, and the clouds will sail into the sea. ”
"The kid is idle and has nothing to do, and he writes nonsense." Gu Qing grabbed the back of her head, and didn't dare to look up in the face of the queen, this woman was very aura.
"Your master is Sun Simiao, presumably you also know medical skills." Empress Eldest Sun then asked.
"I don't understand, I don't know anything." Gu Qing still lowered his head.
"I've heard Sun Simiao say that you are a dead man who wants money." Empress Eldest Sun asked again, "Why don't you accept the house that Qingque gave you?" ”
"Back to the Queen." Gu Qing pondered for two seconds, "The grass people don't dare to accept it, but I don't know if this is sent by His Royal Highness the King of Wei, or His Majesty's meaning, I don't know so I don't dare to accept it." ”
Empress Eldest Sun nodded, "Your new paper and movable type printing skills are ingenious, tell me what benefits you want." ”
"The minister already has His Majesty's dividends, and he doesn't dare to ask for anything else." Saying this, Gu Qing quietly glanced at the expression of the eldest grandson queen, and quickly lowered his head.
"You have a good poem, and everyone is looking for him thousands of times. Suddenly looking back, the man was there, and the lights were dim. Empress Changsun said again: "It's a waste of good poems and texts to be used in trading, Fang Xuanling admires you very much, how do you think this palace let Fang Xuanling be your teacher?" ”
Thinking that he already had a master, it was not good to ask for a teacher, and seeing Li Tai trying his best to give him a look, Gu Qing had no choice but to agree.
Empress Changsun said a few words to the palace maids beside her, and then brought Fang Xuanling.
"Minister, Fang Xuanling meets the queen." The old Fang Xuanling saluted.
The eldest grandson queen and Fang Xuanling said, Fang Xuanling looked at Gu Qing and said, "Sun Simiao is your master, and the old man is your teacher, are you willing?" ”
"Boy, willing!" Gu Qing bent down and bowed deeply, which was considered an apprenticeship ceremony.
Fang Xuanling smiled and nodded.
Empress Eldest Sun sat back beside her, and Li Shimin looked sideways and whispered, "How is it?" ”
"I don't see much, this kid is slippery." Empress Eldest Sun lowered her voice.
"So you let Fang Xuanling be his teacher?" Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling.
"He's young, and he's not yet mature." Empress Eldest Sun frowned and said, "Fang Xuanling is a stable person and takes the overall situation into account, it is good to let this kid practice his temperament, if he has to be taught, he will be a minister." ”
"His young age makes it inappropriate for him to be an official, and there is no such young official in Datang, so the queen's approach is a good idea." Li Shimin smiled and raised his glass to everyone in front of him.
After finishing the salute with Fang Xuanling, Gu Qing and Li Tai walked all the way in the courtyard, seeing a group of princes and princesses walking together, a princess came over, came to Gu Qing's eyes and said, "You are Gu Qing?" ”
"Yes!" Gu Qing said.
"Don't you salute this princess?" The other party said with his small chin raised.
"Gao Yang!" Li Tai said slightly angrily.
Gu Qing shook off the fan and turned around, looking like he didn't salute.
Princess Gaoyang pouted and saw Gu Qing's fan, "Are you the king eight painted on this fan?" ”
"Princess, you're mistaken." Gu Qing shook his fan vigorously, "This is actually a Xuanwu!" ”
"It's a royal eight!" Gao Yang pointed to the fan very seriously.
"Wrong, it's Xuanwu!" Gu Qing corrected again.
"Humph! It's the eighth king, the eighth king! Gao Yang said.
"Gao Yang! Don't be rude! The prince also came over and said to Gu Qing: "Presumably you are Gu Qing, I have heard rumors about you these days, and the new paper and movable type printing can be called a credit to Sheji." ”
"The prince has won the award!" Gu Qing gave up.
