Chapter 143: Curves Save the Country
Since Princess Taiping promised to handle the affairs of the Xiao family, Xue Shao didn't need to nag too much, I believe she must have her own way to persuade the queen. Don't look at Princess Taiping, she often looks unreliable and unreliable, but it doesn't mean that she is really ignorant.
Women will always behave innocently and naively in front of their men, which has little to do with age.
The matter was done, and Xue Shao was ready to leave.
Princess Taiping was not happy, "Xue Lang, do you only come to me when you ask me for help?" As soon as the business is finished, you don't want to spend a little more time with me? ”
"How can you say that?" Xue Shao said, "My new brother and sister-in-law have just arrived, and I have a lot of things to do. Don't you and I have a lifetime left? ”
"You know that Lu Dao is looking for some reason to coax me!" Princess Taiping said sneeringly, "It's hard to get along with you for a while, and I'm going to leave so soon." You see, I asked the imperial doctor to sing and dance, and asked the imperial chef to prepare a good banquet for dinner with you. ”
"Next time!" Xue Shao smiled, "The Queen of Heaven has assigned some things, and there is no room for delay." I've been very busy these days. ”
"Well, you've moved my queen mother out, what can I do?" Princess Taiping pursed her lips, "Then let's go together, you go to the Wei Mansion, and I will go to the Xuanzheng Palace to see my mother." Seeing you so busy, I can't be idle! ”
Work together, husband and wife follow?
Xue Shao smiled, "Then let's go!" ”
The two walked out of the Dragon Head Hall to the south together, although the destination was different, but there was the same distance. Linlang and a team of palace maids and eunuchs followed from behind.
Xue Shao looked back at the pair of eye-catching sister flowers and asked, "Your Highness, why did you make Linlang wear this fiery red dress, as if she was going to get married?" ”
"Don't ask!" Princess Taiping rolled her eyes very unladylikely.
"Ho!" Xue Shao couldn't help but smile, "So, I should inquire more?" ”
"What is there to inquire about, you will naturally know the Tao when the time comes." Princess Taiping seemed to be a little impatient.
Xue Shao smiled, there seemed to be such a sour taste in her words, could it be that it was related to me?
Princess Taiping immediately diverted the topic and said with a smile: "Xue Lang, what if—I mean what if, if you ask you to give me a word, how are you going to take it?" ”
Xue Shao immediately laughed, after the woman got married, her husband helped take the words, and since then she has been in the world with words, "waiting for the word boudoir" is this meaning. For example, Wu Meiniang's "Mei" is the word taken by Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, and she renamed herself "Wu Cao" after she ascended the throne, probably with the intention of denying this period of the past.
"Don't laugh, say it quickly!"
"Hmm......" Xue Shao touched his chin and made a thinking motion, but unfortunately there was no beard on his chin. After a serious pause, he said, "How is the big cow?" Li Da Niu, it's very smooth! ”
"You...... No way! Princess Taiping was quite ashamed.
"You don't even want such an atmospheric word?" Xue Shao pursed his lips and said again, "Then, how about Li Dugua?" ”
"You're a fool, I'll fight with you if you talk nonsense!"
Xue Shaoha smiled, "Your Highness, the six salutes haven't been passed yet, what words do you choose?" ”
"I've said it all, yes!" Princess Taiping was a little angry, turned to smile, and said, "I know the six rites of the Zhou system." I've read about it in a book recently! ”
Xue Shao said with a smile: "Then hurry up and listen to it, and let me increase my knowledge." ”
"You obviously can't trust me, just say it!" Princess Taiping said, "The six ceremonies of the Zhou system of marriage, Nacai, asking for names, Naji, Nazheng, invitation, and welcome." After that, there is also the gift of 'aunt' to become a wife. If the man's parents are no longer alive, the bride will go to the family temple after March to pay homage to her in-laws' spiritual seat, which is called the temple meeting. Well, am I right? ”
"It seems that His Highness's rote memorization is still good." Xue Shao said with a smile.
"Rote memorization?" Princess Taiping was obviously unconvinced.
"I don't know why I know it, isn't it just rote memorization?" Xue Shao said: "The Six Rites came after Confucius rebuilt the rituals, not the real Zhou Rites. The wedding ceremony originally formulated by the Duke of Zhou was the Seven Rites. ”
"Seven Rites?" Princess Taiping was stunned, "Then what is the other gift?" ”
Xue Shao laughed, "Do you really want to know Lu Dao?" ”
"Just say it!"
"Another gift is ......" Xue Shao coughed dryly, "Papapa!" ”
"What, pop pop?" Princess Taiping was confused, "I've never seen it in the book, you must have made it up!" ”
"So, you still haven't read this book well enough." Xue Shaoha smiled, "It's here, Your Highness will go to the right and I will go forward, farewell!" ”
"Hey, stand still and tell me what a pop pop is?"
Xue Shao looked up to the sky and walked away with a big smile, and Princess Taiping said angrily: "Don't say it, I'll ask others to go!" ”
……
Xue Shao returned to the Wei Mansion, and Lu Siyi and the others were practicing archery on the school ground, and they hurriedly came forward to serve. Lu Siyi said that Li Lianggong took Xue Chuyu, the flying horse jade crown, to the Wei Mansion to find General Xue. Now the two of them should be in Li Lianggong's official office.
"Let's go, come with me to the Li Liang Public Office." Xue Shao was overjoyed, Xue Chuyu came to report so quickly, and he was very efficient!
Only the deep mansion compound can show its identity, and the innermost layer of the second courtyard of the Wei Mansion is the official office of Li Xiaoyi, the general of Zuo Fengchenwei. When Xue Shao and his party walked in, they happened to see Li Xiantong coming out of it, with a spring breeze on his face.
"I've seen Li Zhonglang." Xue Shao stood still and hugged his fists.
"General Xue is polite." Li Xiantong returned the salute with a smile and said, "At noon two days later, if General Xue has leisure, can he go to the cold house to have a home-cooked meal?" ”
"Xue is better than being respectful." Xue Shao had no choice but to agree first. Li Xiantong had also asked for advice before.
"Okay, then Li will sprinkle and sweep to greet you." Li Xiantong hugged his fists with a smile and left first.
Xue Shao blinked, he was so happy, could it be that he heard the news that he was going to be promoted to General Zuo Fengchenwei?
Without having time to think about it, Xue Shao entered Li Xiaoyi's official office, and when he entered, he saw Xue Chuyu standing there, all of whom had already changed into the Huadian embroidered clothes of Officer Zuo Fengchenwei.
"Xue Qianniu is here!" Li Xiaoyi smiled very kindly, and said, "Eight grades are ready for Xue Chuyu, and the old man has just taken him to complete all the regulations. Now, you can take your people away! ”
"No wonder it's so fast, thank you so much to Gong Li Liang!" Xue Shao bowed his hand and thanked him.
"You're welcome." Li Xiaoyi said with a smile, "The old man will be transferred from Zuo Fengchenwei in a few days, and it is fortunate that he can still do some things before leaving." ”
Xue Shao's heart lit up, it seems that Li Xiaoyi's news is also very well-informed!
Xue Chuyu clenched his fists, "Subordinate Xue Chuyu, meet the general!" ”
"Okay." Xue Shao nodded and said, "I won't say anything superfluous, only one sentence - brothers are concentric, and their benefits are gold." ”
Xue Chuyu solemnly clenched his fists, "Chu Yu is willing to work with the general with one heart and one mind!" ”
Xue Shao nodded, "Lu Siyi, take Xue Bei to settle down first." ”
"Yes, General!"
After leaving, Xue Shao closed the door and said, "Li Lianggong, just now you said that you are about to be transferred from Zuo Fengchenwei, could it be that Li Xiantong is really going to become the general of Zuo Fengchenwei?" ”
Li Xiaoyi sneered, "Those are two different things. ”
Xue Shao smiled knowingly and said, "I just met Li Xiantong outside the door, and he seemed to be very happy. ”
"If he is unhappy, how can he appease Li Shangdan?" Li Xiaoyi lowered his voice and said, "Xue Yuma is not an outsider, and the old man doesn't have to go around the bend. The queen of heaven was proposed to His Majesty and wanted to promote Li Xiantong to become the general of Zuo Fengchenwei. The old man is also the general of the two guards, and General Zuo Fengchenwei is only a school inspector, so it is reasonable to give young people a virtuous. But Zuo Fengchen Weili is full of talents, and he can't give it to Li Xiantong to anyone! ”
Xue Shao nodded, "What does Li Lianggong mean by letting Zhou Jitong compete with him?" ”
Li Xiaoyi was slightly surprised, "Could it be that Xue Yuma has no interest in the position of General Zuo Fengchenwei?" ”
"If you don't mince words, you have." Xue Shao said, "But right now, I don't want to fight." ”
"For what?" Li Xiaoyi was curious.
Xue Shao smiled and said, "Because I still have a lot of things to do right now. Talking about martial arts, marriage, and others. Moreover, the time I have been here for Zuo Fengchenwei is still short, and although I have prestige, it is not enough to convince the public, and I am not familiar with all aspects. Even if you reluctantly win the position of general, you will be at a loss for a while. In that case, the position of general will be a heavy burden for me. ”
"That makes sense. Xue Yuma has a bright future, and there is indeed no need to fight for the length of this day. Li Xiaoyi nodded, "So, Xue Yuma also agreed to help Zhou Jitong compete for this position?" ”
Xue Shao nodded, "Zuo Fengchenwei is quite special, a new outsider is absolutely incompetent for the position of general, and can only be selected internally." There is no doubt that the two lieutenants will be the most qualified. Choose one of the two, of course I am willing to support Zhou Jitong! ”
Li Xiaoyi nodded meaningfully and smiled, smiling like an old fox, and said, "If it is Zhou Jitong, then the old man is willing to abdicate and make way for Xian." I'm afraid it's ...... Zhou Jitong can't compete with Li Xiantong! ”
Xue Shao smiled slightly, "It's man-made." ”
Li Xiaoyi nodded and said, "Xue Yuma, although Zuo Fengchenwei does not have a large number of generals and soldiers, he is the personal guard of His Majesty, and the first general, the second lieutenant, and the twenty-four six-grade Qianniu all have great backgrounds. If you can hold Zuo Fengchenwei in your hands, the significance is extraordinary! ”
"I know it." Xue Shao nodded, Feng Chenwei was closer to the emperor than the Imperial Forest Army, and the "Yanai Family" was a major network capital, which was indeed of great significance.
"Li Shangdan has already mastered the forbidden army, if he lets his son master Zuo Fengchenwei again, then the forbidden palace will really become the world of his father and son." Li Xiaoyi's voice was lowered and he said, "So, we must find a way to support Zhou Jitong to take over as a general!" ”
Xue Shao smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Duke Li Liang, I know what to do." ”
Li Xiaoyi nodded, "Xue Yuma is a young talent who is valued by the queen of heaven, and he must have magical powers." With Xue Fuma's words, the old man can rest assured! ”
Xue Shao smiled noncommittally, thinking to himself that to Wu Zetian, the Beiya Forbidden Army was like a tiger on the side of the couch, and Feng Chenwei was like a sharp blade on the pillow. This blade can be used for self-defense, and it can also wipe out one's own neck at any time.
Just a Li Shangdan who is in charge of the Beiya Forbidden Army is enough to make Wu Zetian uneasy, and she must especially not want Li Xiantong to become General Zuo Fengchenwei again. But she did the opposite, recommending Li Xiantong in front of Li Zhi to take over Li Xiaoyi's position as general. Her intention, in addition to appeasing Li Shangdan, was also to show Li Zhi that she "has no intention of fighting for the military power of His Majesty".
As Wu Zetian's confidant, Li Xiaoyi certainly understood that the queen of heaven was playing a "bitter trick", so he invited me to support Zhou Jitong to take over the post of general, save the country, and prevent Li Xiantong from succeeding from within Zuo Fengchenwei.
It's greasy in this, I really can't figure it out if I don't think about it seriously!.
