Chapter 707: Li Ke asked to change the fief
Chapter 707 Li Ke asked to change the fief
Wang Ping'an was taken aback, and looked at Li Ke carefully, although he knew that it was very rude to stare at Li Ke like this, but the Li Ke in front of him was so shocking that he couldn't help but stare at it!
I saw Li Ke, the original handsome appearance has disappeared a lot, or although he is not a handsome young man now, he is a handsome fat man, with a round face, a smooth chin and lips, a face that is still rubbed with powder, eyebrows are also repaired, and his hair is oiled, very bright, combed and meticulous!
Forget about these, this Li Ke actually wore an emerald green gorgeous robe with yellow tassels, holding a colorful handkerchief in his hand, and faintly, he could smell a smell of balsam!
Wang Ping'an was dumbfounded, and thought: "No, it is even pretending to be undefeated in the East, and it is still a fat version of the undefeated in the East?" Even if you pretend to be decadent, you don't need to eat yourself like this, right? ”
Qiu Tingxuan glanced at Li Ke, then at Wang Ping'an, and thought: "When you asked me, I didn't want to say more, but now I understand, why don't I want to talk to you more!" ”
After Li Ke yawned, he said, "This king got up earlier today, and usually got up after dark." No disease, are you here to pay New Year's greetings to this king? If you hadn't reminded me, this king would have forgotten that today is the New Year! ”
Wang Ping'an finally came back to his senses and said, "Lord Wang, the lower officials have not come to greet An for a long time, and I ask for your forgiveness." It's just that...... You're a lot richer, and the lower officials don't dare to recognize you! ”
The spies he sent to Li Ke's side often reported Li Ke's news to him, but rarely mentioned Li Ke's figure. Of course, although the figure does not affect anything, and the Tang Dynasty is even more fat as beauty, but this change is a bit too big, which is difficult to accept for a while!
Li Ke waved his hand and said, "No blame, no blame, what's so weird." Didn't this king say that as long as he doesn't call you, you won't use it. Today coincides with the Chinese New Year, you come without being called, it's nothing, it's a happy thing for the New Year! ”
He spoke in a kind tone, and after saying this, he yawned again, as if he had indeed gotten up early.
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "It is said that the heart is wide and the body is fat, it seems that this is indeed the case." After Li Ke gained weight, he spoke a lot more kindly, looking like a good gentleman, could it be said that he was really relieved, so he was fat? ”
Wang Ping'an hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, you haven't gone out hunting much recently, have you?" How is this so rich? ”
Li Ke laughed twice and said: "Recently, this king has been studying Goguryeo's songs and dances, and learning to compose, and has also compiled several dances, which is very exhausting, so he didn't go out for recreation, so that his body became heavy, but it's nothing, don't worry about illness." ”
Wang Ping'an sighed and thought, "Still pretending?" But this cost is inevitably too big, and even his appearance has changed so much, I don't know what he is thinking! ”
He said: "The prince has recently fallen in love with Goguryeo's song and dance? What good songs and dances can there be in the poor mountains and remote areas of Goguryeo, the land of tigers and wolves, and even if there are, they will be much worse according to the kingdom of my heavenly empire, right? ”
Li Ke was greatly disapproving, with a displeased expression on his face, and waved his hand and said: "No disease, what you said is not right, although Goguryeo is a small country, but it has amazing attainments in singing and dancing, especially under the guidance of this king, it has undergone great changes, and now it is completely first-class singing and dancing, if you don't believe it, you can take a look and taste it now." ”
Wang Ping'an hurriedly sighed again, expressing surprise, but thought in his heart: "The imperial court sent you to Gyeongju to guide the use of water conservancy projects and waterwheels, but you are guiding singing and dancing!" Well, that's right, anyway, you can't get involved in everything in Gyeongju, so wouldn't it be too boring if you don't play some tricks! ”
With a surprised and happy expression on his face, he clapped his hands and said, "Really, can the lower officials really see the song and dance choreographed by the prince?" How can the subordinate officials be virtuous, what merits can be spoken, and they can enjoy ......"
Li Ke waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't say these goosebump-giving words, let you see, you can just watch." Today is the New Year, just to celebrate with singing and dancing, Qiu County Order also take a look at it, and evaluate it! ”
The servants stepped forward and brought a low table to Wang Ping'an and Qiu Tingxuan, and served fragrant tea and snacks for them to listen to songs and dance.
Wang Ping'an looked at these servants and asked, "Lord Wang, these servants look different from my Central Plains, are they also Goguryeo?" ”
Li Ke snorted and said, "Do you look different?" How did you tell they looked different? Let's hear about it? ”
"This ......" Wang Ping'an just asked casually, but in fact, he didn't see any difference between these servants and the Central Plains, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "These people, this face is as big as a plate, but the eyes are very slender, like a ball of noodles, cut a slit on it with a knife." Isn't this different from the people of the Central Plains? ”
Li Ke and Qiu Tingxuan cheered in unison, looked at these servants together, looked at them a few times, and the two laughed together. Li Ke smiled: "If you don't say it, this king really hasn't paid attention, isn't that exactly the case, these people have big faces, small eyes, and thin and long eyes, but they are not exactly as you described!" ”
Qiu Tingxuan also nodded again and again, saying that these servants are indeed quite distinctive.
Wang Ping'an laughed a few times and said, "I don't know if the lower officials are wrong, they are Goguryeo?" ”
Li Ke shook his head and said, "You guessed wrong, they are not Goguryeo people, but Baekje people, and Baekje is in the south of Goguryeo." ”
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "How did you get the Baekje people again, it's inexplicable!" He hurriedly made a sudden realization, and said: "I see, it seems that the lower officials are still lonely!" ”
Li Ke clapped his hands three times, and as soon as the applause fell, he saw a team of musicians coming in outside, sitting on the edge of the carpet, playing and singing, and the music came together, and a group of women in Goguryeo costumes came in outside, all barefoot, dancing on the carpet, with long braids, and flicking them around!
Wang Ping'an and Qiu Tingxuan glanced at each other, and thought in their hearts: "This is the dance of Goguryeo?" It's very ordinary, what is there to study! ”
After watching the dance a few times, Wang Ping'an secretly glanced at Li Ke, and saw that Li Ke had an obsessive look on his face, his chubby body, swaying back and forth with the sound of music, and his head was also flicking around, fortunately he didn't have long braids, otherwise he would have to dance with braids!
Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "I can't see that it's pretending, could it be that Li Ke has really changed his sex, and he no longer cares about the government and politics, and has become only a dog and a horse?" ”
He didn't believe that Li Ke would really change his sex, but the situation in front of him made him unable to deduce anything, so he had to pretend to concentrate on watching the song and dance, but the thoughts in his heart turned one after another, and he couldn't calm down.
In a short time, a song and dance ended. Li Ke smiled: "What, no disease, do you still think that Goguryeo's singing and dancing are not worth watching?" ”
Wang Ping'an hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, this song and dance is really Goguryeo?" Xia Guan thought that it could only be found in heaven, how could I hear about it in the world, this is simply too wonderful, too surprising! ”
As he spoke, he also made a few gestures to show that he was really surprised and had thoroughly liked the tone of Goguryeo!
Li Ke laughed, slapped the table, and said proudly: "This is not a pure Goguryeo flavor, but it has been adapted under the guidance of this king, which is why it is so intoxicating." Disease-free, are you drunk? ”
"Drunk, drunk, the lower official already doesn't know where he is!" Wang Ping'an hurriedly said. But he didn't figure it out, what was Li Ke going to do? If you want to be drunk and drunk, there is a way to play, so you don't need to just stare at Goguryeo's singing and dancing!
Li Ke sighed and said, "It's a pity that this king can't go to Goguryeo to see it in person, presumably there must be picturesque scenery and beautiful women......" As he spoke, he first reveled and reveled in his fantasies!
The muscles on Wang Ping'an's face twitched, and a flash of inspiration flashed, why did he say this in front of him, he wanted to hint first, he really wanted to go to Goguryeo? But if he goes to Goguryeo, his life will be over, do you really think that Goguryeo people can help a prince who has lost power against the prince of the Tang Dynasty, don't dream!
He looked at Li Ke and saw that Li Ke was intoxicated, endlessly, and he was intoxicated for half an hour, which was really ...... It's indescribable, the current Li Ke is a bit of a fool!
Ah, Li Ke finally came back to his senses and said: "If you are not sick, you think that Goguryeo's singing and dancing are good, so I think my father will also think it is good." No disease, you said that if I dedicate the dancing girl to my father and give him an old man to relieve his boredom, will his old man like it? ”
Wang Ping'an suddenly thought in his heart: "Wouldn't it be that assassins were sent to mix in, wanting to assassinate the emperor while the song and dance were being performed?" Impossible, what benefit can he gain by doing so? If something happens to the person he sacrificed, the first person to be punished is himself! ”
Wang Ping'an said: "This, it's hard for the lower officials to say, the emperor is afraid that it will be ...... I shouldn't like it, the emperor doesn't like Goguryeo who refuses to surrender, this, that ...... "He doesn't dare to say that the emperor will like it, otherwise Li Ke really has some kind of foolish behavior, wouldn't he be involved!"
Li Ke sighed again, was silent for a long time, and said: "No disease, this king has something to ask you, I hope you can still agree." As he spoke, he twisted his chubby body, sat up straight from behind the table, and actually saluted Wang Ping'an.
Wang Ping'an was shocked and thought, "What are you doing, do you want to harm me?" Then you have to be careful, I'm not a vegetarian! He was afraid that Li Ke would set himself up, so he hurriedly returned the courtesy, but said: "The lower official has small shoulders and narrow shoulders, and the prince has something to entrust, so the lower official will naturally do his best to help, but whether it can be done or not, it depends on two words!" ”
Li Ke said: "This king is now wide and fat, and you have seen that he is free of disease, and he doesn't want to worry about the affairs of Gyeongju anymore, he just wants his wife to be a prince who has nothing to do." Disease-free, would you like to help with this? ”
Wang Ping'an hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, Gyeongju can't do without you, if you weren't here, the lower officials wouldn't know what to do, you are the backbone of the lower officials!" ”
Li Ke sighed heavily, with a decadent look on his chubby face, and said, "I'm tired, I don't want to participate in politics anymore." No disease, this king begs you to talk to the eldest grandson, can you change the title of this king to Yingzhou? It is closer to Goguryeo, so that the king can have a good taste of the customs of the Goguryeo people and live the rest of his life comfortably. This king's popularity is not good, if you take the liberty to tell the eldest grandson, I'm afraid that the eldest grandson will not agree, and you have to pass it to succeed! ”
Wang Ping'an was taken aback and said, "Yingzhou, why does the prince want to go there?" Xiaguan heard that Yingzhou was in ruins, since the previous dynasty, there was the distribution place of my Central Plains army's eastward crusade, and the previous wars had already burned Yingzhou to the point that there was nothing left, especially when the army retreated, in order not to let the material resources of the enemy, it was burned to the ground, and the people have moved away, and it can't be used as your fiefdom! ”
Yingzhou is on the edge of Goguryeo, since the era of Emperor Yang of Sui, it has been the base camp of all the Eastern Crusades, and every time the Sui army retreats, the Goguryeo army will run to Yingzhou and ravage it as revenge.
After entering the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin beat Goguryeo to the ground, slaughtered many cities in Goguryeo, and abducted a large number of people, but in the end he did not destroy Goguryeo, so Li Shimin thought that it was defeated. However, the defeat was from the perspective of the Central Empire's failure to destroy the small Fanbang, which defeated Goguryeo miserably, and laid the foundation for the final destruction of Goguryeo in the Li Zhi era.
But after the Tang army took the initiative to retreat, the Goguryeo people, in order to show that they had defeated the army of the Celestial Empire, when the Tang army retreated to Youzhou, and it was impossible to rush back in a short time, they specially sent troops to harass Yingzhou and set fire to the surrounding areas.
After such a toss, although Yingzhou is still the land of the Tang Dynasty, there are few people living here, no one wants to live there, who knows if there will be another war in the future? This place, in the early Tang Dynasty, like Zheliu County, was not a good place, and it would not prosper again until Goguryeo was destroyed.
The prince's fief should be rich, how could it be sealed to such a dangerous place, it wouldn't be exile!
Li Ke listened to Wang Ping'an's words, but said: "Can it be used as the fief of this king, or let the eldest grandson decide, this king just asked you, would you like to help this favor and pass a message to the eldest grandson?" ”
The muscles on Wang Ping'an's face were beating, and he already understood that this was not a conspiracy, but a conspiracy. Li Ke used to do it secretly, but he was unlucky again and again, this time he did the opposite, using Yangmou, playing with the sea and leaping with a fish, the sky is high and the birds fly, and he went to Yingzhou, not only can he have a completely decisive territory like himself, but he can also get the help of Goguryeo to do bad things!
Wang Ping'an shook his head and said: "The eldest grandson will not agree, and the emperor will not agree, if the prince wants to be a prince of peace, it is better to stay in Gyeongju!" ”
Qiu Tingxuan also looked at Li Ke and thought: "It's a risk, you can get a chance to resist, but don't forget, and at the same time, it also gives the eldest grandson Wuji the opportunity to kill you, this is a big risk!" This idea must have been given to you by the Goguryeo people, how can you believe it, is it really Li Lingzhi's faintness? ”
