The wine was strong and mellow, and the main hall was drunk, Li Xuanba and Yang Tong were the youngest, and they didn't drink much, but they became the only sober people. Maybe everyone gets drunk for different reasons, but everyone is really drunk.

Zhang Xutuo is the most drunk, he has led the army for many years, and rarely drinks alcohol, but today he drinks dozens of bowls. He was the oldest, he was toasted the most, he was in a very good mood, and he would naturally get drunk if he did not refuse to come. The monarch and the ministers are harmonious, the revival of the Great Sui is hopeful, and he is the happiest person who is already cold-hearted.

Li Jing has always been faced with a choice, Li Xuanba has the grace of knowing him, but he is a courtier of the Great Sui and does not want to betray the court, so he is very conflicted and has been silent. What Li Xuanba did today made him completely relieved, and naturally he was also drunk.

Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Niu Jinda, Yuwen Chengdu and Pei Yuanqing and others are already good at wine, and the wine is in front, they don't care about anything else, they use all their skills, let the wine enter their throats, and can't help but be happy.

The eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Jia Yanfu had a lot of entanglements, but fortunately, Yang Tong's performance made them very satisfied, so they got drunk to relieve their sorrows and didn't think about the future. Everyone was drunk, with Wei Zheng's amount of alcohol, it was too difficult not to get drunk, he was determined to follow Li Xuanba, his mind was the simplest, and he was the most drunk.

There are wine jars everywhere in the hall, and at first, everyone paid a little attention to them, and placed them neatly on one side.

Shizuka looked at the messy main hall with disbelief on her face, and she glanced at Li Xuanba with resentment, looking very feminine. Before the guests left, Shizuka was already worried about how to clean up the mess.

There have always been very few subordinates in Zhongyong Mansion, and Liang Xiao, Qifu and others were also drunk with Li Xuanba's permission, and they couldn't count on it at all.

"Shizuka, you go back and rest first. I'll clean it up tomorrow. Li Xuanba also realized this problem, smiled awkwardly, and said, "When they wake up tomorrow, I'll let them clean up before leaving." ”

"Childe, how can there be a reason to let the guests clean up." Shizuka rolled her eyes, she had a busy day. is indeed a little tired, plus the people in the lobby who fell to the ground, and now they really can't clean it up, so he said: "Wait for the slave to invite someone to clean up tomorrow, don't lose your courtesy." ”

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, Brother Twelve is just a joke, it's really not good, I sent some people over to help you clean it up." Yang Tong smiled and said: "Zhou Guogong has 5,000 households, and the mansion is too cold. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. There are enough people in the house. Shizuka blushed and saluted Yang Tong: "Your Majesty and Gongzi will chat slowly, and the slave and maid will retire first." After saying that, the money was withdrawn.

"Brother Twelve, what should I call you in the future?" The two walked out of the lobby and sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard, Yang Tong raised his eyebrows and said, "I always feel a little awkward to call you the twelfth brother in front of my aunt." ”

"Your Majesty is free to do so." Li Xuanba smiled.

"There are no outsiders here. You can call me thirteen. Yang Tong was stunned: "Why are you doing this today?" ”

"With Your Majesty's intelligence, you should be able to figure it out, right?" Li Xuanba looked at the bright moon. He said calmly: "When you are the king of Yue, you can be considerate of the people and manage Luoyang in an orderly manner, I believe that you will definitely be a good emperor in the future." ”

After leaving Luoyang, Yang Tong and Li Xuanba never talked alone. Seeing Li Xuanba say something heart-wrenching, Yang Tong pursed his lips and frowned deeply: "You really don't want to climb on the dragon chair?" ”

"It's not that I don't want to, it's not suitable." Li Xuanba replied sincerely: "I have many things I want to do, and the dragon chair will limit my freedom. I can't do what I want to do. After speaking, he looked at Yang Tong with sincere eyes and arched his hand: "The rivers and mountains of the Great Sui are undoubtedly the most tempting for many people, but for me, it is just a cage. ”

It was difficult for Yang Tong to understand what Li Xuanba meant, and he waited for Li Xuanba's explanation with doubts.

"Your Majesty has been studying in the country since childhood, and Weichen wants to ask Your Majesty a question." Yang Tong nodded, and Li Xuanba continued: "If we keep moving in a certain direction, where will we end up?" ”

"This" Yang Tong thought seriously and replied, "It should be the end of heaven and earth, right?" ”

"No, it's back to square one." Li Xuanba shook his head decisively: "The land under our feet is round, in addition to the rivers and mountains of the Great Sui, there are many places in the world, and the future of Weichen is in the distance." ”

Since ancient times, there have been two voices, "the sky is round and the earth is round" and "the earth is round", but there are very few people who believe in the earth circle, and Li Xuanba said such a thing with such certainty, which made Yang Tong a little unacceptable for a while.

"Weichen understands, Your Majesty can't understand what I mean for the time being." Li Xuanba sighed and arched his hand: "Wei Chen said this in the hope that His Majesty can always trust Wei Chen, and today's incident can be regarded as Wei Chen's expression of his sincerity." ”

"Brother Twelve, I am a little unaccustomed to you suddenly talking about such a serious topic." Yang Tong took a long time to calm his mood: "I and the queen mother can live to this day, all thanks to you, they all say that the emperor is ruthless, and I will never be that ruthless emperor." ”

"Your Majesty can say this, Weichen feels much more comfortable." Li Xuanba's attitude is not humble, but he is not arrogant, and the scene at this time falls in Yang Tong's eyes, as if he was playing with children of the same age when he was young.

The wind blew the fallen leaves, and the young monarch heard the deepest voice in the heart of the same young courtier, and was moved for no reason.

"Brother Twelve, do you know why I never doubted you after coming to Jiangdu?" Yang Tong felt it and decided to say his truest thoughts: "In the eyes of others, it is because you are in power, and I am just a puppet, but I want to tell you that the reason why I chose to trust you is because of the words of the queen mother." ”

"What did the Queen Mother say?" Li Xuanba was not impressed by Xiao Liu Liangdi, but felt that under her weak appearance, there was a smart heart.

"The queen mother taught me, you don't live up to me, I don't live up to you, if you don't live up to me, you are willing to be like a glutton." Yang Tong smiled and said word by word.

These words contain a lot of philosophy, Yang Tong is the emperor, and Xiao Liu Liangdi can actually say these words, which makes Li Xuanba have to look high.

Entrusting one's life to a courtier is easy to say, but how many emperors have been able to do it throughout the ages? If the trust is wrong, he will reap the consequences, and no one will complain, which emperor can have such a measure?

"Wechen was struck by lightning once, but I don't want to suffer again." Li Xuanba said the most vicious oath in the calmest tone.

"The rivers and mountains of the Southern Sui were brought down by you, and I and the Queen Mother are helpless, so I can only choose to trust you." Yang Tong said frankly: "If one day, Brother Twelve really thinks about the emperor's addiction, I will not have half of the nostalgia, provided that Brother Twelve you can love the people of the Great Sui." ”

"Your Majesty, you better think about how to make people's lives better." Li Xuanba stiffened his waist: "This crime, Weichen also does not want to suffer." After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled, seeing the firmness in each other's eyes. (To be continued.) )
