Chapter 135: Satisfaction
Guanzhong Chang'an, the land of four stops, thousands of miles of Jincheng, solid as gold.
The first time Lu Xin walked into Chang'an, he noticed the difference between Chang'an and Jinling, Jinling is a tactful woman like a fair woman, charming and moving, and Chang'an is like a gentle gentleman, with both the world's elite cast sword guards, and a gathering of elites dancing and writing here.
Entering the Zhuque Street from the Chengde Gate, there are all kinds of pedestrians inside, such as the Tubo people, the Persians, the Kunlun slaves, etc., and the wine shops along the street can also hear the sound of silk pipes and bamboos everywhere, and the Hu girls who accompany the dance are enthusiastic and unrestrained, which has caused a great impact on the old-fashioned southerners.
"Hu Lu barbarian, but that's it." Lu Xin cursed secretly in his mouth, but he envied the delicate bearded girl, and couldn't help but take out a few pieces of money from his coat and hand them to the domestic servant, so that he could prepare them for himself at the post station.
Although Lu Xin was an official of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he also prepared a file in Chang'an, driving the horse to drive slowly.
In the afternoon, after bathing and changing clothes at the post station, news came from the palace.
The emperor did not meet Lu Xin in the Liangyi Palace, nor did he have hundreds of officials, but just a few important ministers and empresses.
"Lu Xin, the waiter of the Sipin Rite Department, came to see the emperor." Lu Xin bowed first, and then slowly said the purpose of this trip, "The southern barbarians are not smooth, and the unstable ministers in the world are ordered by the emperor to come to take the prince into Jinling to guard Kyoto, so that the emperor can personally lead the troops and horses to sweep away the ministers."
Lu Xin is very smart, he speaks in front of people, and in Chang'an, he wants to say that Li Yuan is the emperor.
There are no two masters in the country, but Lao Tzu can do it.
In the Tang Dynasty, it was believed that it was impossible for the Northern and Southern Tang Dynasty to split now, but as long as the Emperor Taishang had other biological heirs, then the future outcome was difficult to predict.
After all, Li Shimin did not succeed to the throne legitimately, but killed Prince Cheng and ascended to the throne.
"My father has urgently informed Yu I of this matter for 800 miles, but the prince is the prince of a country, if he rushes to Jinling, the road may be in trouble, according to my intentions, the prince of Luguo Junji can lead the Tiance Mansion army to defend the prince" Li Shimin's eyes showed a fine light.
The Emperor Taishang and the crown prince Chengqian have always had a very good personal relationship, and they will definitely not do anything to kill their grandson, and he Li Shimin has many heirs under his knees, and there is not much more prince, and there is no less one, so it is impossible to take revenge in this way.
Then the Emperor Taishang really thinks about the love of his children and grandchildren, and wants someone to rule the power when he is old, so as not to divide the clan.
But Prince Chengqian went to Jinling alone, how could he rest assured?
And Hou Junji's daughter recently married Li Chengqian and became the prince's concubine, and he is the old man of the Tiance Mansion army, the hero of the Qin Palace, and it is only fitting for him to support the prince in Jinling.
But the question is, how many troops and horses are appropriate?
There are too many, and there is a suspicion that the dove occupies the magpie's nest.
If there is less, I am afraid that the prince's oral edict will not be able to leave the palace gate.
Lu Xin gritted his teeth, lowered his head and glanced at those important ministers, and said: "The Emperor Taishang said that the prince can bring soldiers and horses, but it can only be the soldiers and horses of the sixth rate of the East Palace, and the number cannot exceed three thousand!" ”
"Three thousand, it's okay." Du Ruhui coughed and said.
Pei Ju stood up and was about to speak, but Du Ruhui shook his head slightly and retreated.
Li Shimin pondered for a while, nodded, and said the word "may".
After Lu Xin left, Li Shimin asked, "Keming, why don't you increase your troops?" My father's longevity is limited, and I am afraid that he will die soon, but the situation in the south will be chaotic, and with only 3,000 soldiers and horses, it is somewhat stretched in Jinling City, and it is difficult to deal with it. ”
"Your Majesty, this matter is different from the past, the Emperor Taishang is already old and weak, how difficult is it to give birth to an heir? And there are not a few people in the Southern Tang Dynasty who miss His Majesty's courtiers, but they don't dare to say much because of the power of the king of Hejian County.
As long as the emperor dies and sends a good general, in less than a month, the south will definitely enter His Majesty's pocket again, and the internal and external strategies will get twice the result with half the effort, and there is no need to be frustrated.
An army of a hundred battles, a dignified general, crossing the river is as easy as a snap! "Coats is honest and colorful.
"The most important thing in this matter is not to respond, but to gain the favor of the emperor." Fang Xuanling smiled.
Now the south is full of contradictions, and if the emperor is here, it will be as stable as a lake, but after the death of the emperor, all the contradictions will explode instantly.
Up and down the court, I can only hope that the emperor has no heirs, so Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County.
After the crown prince Li Chengqian returned to the East Palace, his eyebrows were full of sadness, he didn't really want to go to Jinling, how good it was in Chang'an, and he didn't know when he would be able to come back when he arrived in Jinling.
Although the major events of the court are important, how can pleasure be important?
There was a beautiful woman on the bed in the warm pavilion, lazy and abnormal, her thin and white shoulders were just like beautiful jade, her clothes were half-covered and half-hidden, and the spring was looming, she stretched her waist, and the clothes attached to her body slipped quietly, and she screamed, but she didn't expect Li Chengqian to hug her directly, and said with a smile: "Beauty, I think that you have been a little haggard recently, so how can Qin Huaiyu have such a beauty as you?" Now it's all lonely. ”
"Huh?" The beauty said coquettishly, and her voice was as crisp as a yellow bird, "Isn't Your Highness the crown princess of Xinna?" Why did you come to someone's house in a daze? ”
Li Chengqian's face changed slightly, and he said embarrassedly: "That's all to cover people's eyes, if you don't try to cover up, Lone's reputation will be ruined." ”
"Your Highness is notorious, everyone in the market knows about it, no one knows it, this matter is an elegant thing, what is there to see? Could it be that Your Highness blames the concubine for not being able to give birth to a child? The beauty hid her eyes and wept, her expression was haggard, and she was pitiful, so that the man could not wait to hug him tightly in his arms, comforting and comforting.
"I know that there are many concubines in the harem, but how can I be satisfied that you are charming and moving." Li Chengqian took his satisfying little hand like a demon, it was really like a white jade, weak and boneless, he couldn't help but kiss it.
"No matter how important the love is in His Royal Highness's heart, it can't compare to the accusations and insults of the world, the concubines admire His Highness, but they have to endure the flies and dogs, hiding in the pickled place and not seeing the light of day, although they are blessed by His Royal Highness's rain and dew, but the heart is unbearable, and the concubine will throw herself into the dry well in the courtyard, and wait for a good relationship with His Royal Highness in the future." After saying that, he ran out of the room crying.
Li Chengqian's face changed, and he hurriedly grabbed his heart, hugged him in his arms, and comforted: "Lone knows, I think that Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty is also a favored eunuch, and there is still a Wenjing Changshi, although Lone is not talented, but he has pitied the people since he was a child, and he has always had political achievements, so it is a big deal to inform the world, is it true that the father can really cure Lone?" Even if the father didn't like it, Lone could go to Jinling to plead with the emperor's grandfather. ”
"Your Highness, if you are satisfied, you will be content in this life." snuggled in Li Chengqian's arms, looking tranquil.
If he hadn't known that he was a man, I'm afraid that no man in the world would have been able to resist such a temptation.
