Chapter 328: Falling Leaves Full of Chang'an (2)

The autumn wind is bleak, and the waves of Weishui are surging.

If there is a choice, in fact, Kong Sheng is not willing to have too much contact with the prince's clan, and he has no intention of clinging to the powerful. Because he knows better than anyone else that when he associates with the prince, he will often get caught up in the battle for the heir, and he will get into endless trouble.

But he is a subordinate of the Tang Dynasty, and the Li family, as the prince of the prince, treats him with great courtesy, and he is not good at treating him coldly.

Li Ji smiled and pointed to Princess Ning Guo and Princess Ji Guo behind him, and said, "Kong Sheng, have you seen Princess Ning Guo and Princess Yining!" ”

Kong Sheng took a deep breath and bowed to Ning Guo and Yi Ning: "Xiaguan Kong Sheng meets the two princesses!" ”

Ning Guo's expression was calm, and he nodded to Kong Sheng with a slight smile, which was regarded as a return of the courtesy. Although Ning Guo is a princess, she has a demure and gentle personality, and she is more indisputable after being widowed, and she met the legendary Kong Sheng, because she read Kong Sheng's poems a lot, she secretly looked at it twice, and saw that Kong Sheng was young and handsome, and he had some appreciation in his heart.

Yi Ning had a detached personality, and looked at Kong Sheng and couldn't help but smile: "It turns out that you are that Kong Sheng!" Looking at your weak appearance, if you want to say that you are the first genius in Jiangnan, this palace can barely believe it, but to say that you gallop on the battlefield and ten thousand enemies, this palace feels that it must be an exaggeration. ”

Kong Sheng smiled and bowed: "Originally, the world was too famous, how could Kong Sheng dare to be called the enemy of ten thousand people?" It made Her Royal Highness the princess smile. ”

Li shook his head slightly and said: "Yining, Kong Sheng led the army to shock the rebels in Henan, accumulated military exploits, and killed dozens of rebel generals one after another, can this be fake?" ”

Yining pursed her lips and shook her head in disbelief.

I really can't complain about Yining, it's really Kong Sheng's appearance that is too deceptive. Slender and polite, he looks powerless. How can it be compared to the generals who crisscross the battlefield?

In fact, Princess Ningguo also didn't believe it, and felt that it might be exaggerated by the world. Looking at Kong Sheng's speech and demeanor, he is elegant and elegant, and it is clear that he is a full scribe, even if he can go into battle to kill the enemy, he will not be fierce to the extent of ten thousand enemies in any case. It's just that Ning Guo won't show it on his face like Yining.

"Alright. Don't argue about that. Come here, set up a banquet, and the king and Kong Taishou have a drink on the bank of the Weishui River! "The Li family has long had the intention of wooing Kong Sheng to join his camp, and if he meets him today, how can he easily let Kong Sheng leave.

Li ordered that the palace maids and eunuchs around him immediately get busy, and after a short time, they spread a carpet on the riverside and set up four desks. It depends on the guest and host.

Kong Sheng had no choice but to obey.

Li is full of talent, good conversation, clear words, he deliberately made friends, Kong Sheng was a little repulsed and a little helpless in his heart. However, to be honest, he has a good impression of the Li family, and he thinks that this prince is quite instrumental. Although his corporal Lixian has the purpose of wooing.

There are not many records of the Li family in the history books, and the ink is very small. If the course of history does not change. In a few years, the Li family will die at the hands of Li Fuguo and Cheng Yuanzhen. Speaking of which, it is still the fault of the emperor's throne, if the Li family is indifferent to fame and fortune and does not touch the throne, it must not be killed.

It's just that as the son of the emperor, especially as an important prince with strong ambitions. It is unrealistic to say that there is no thought of the throne at all.

Li asked about Kong Sheng's many wars in Henan one by one in a gentle manner, and his attitude was amiable, without a little arrogance, not like a meeting between the prince and his subordinates. On the contrary, it is more like meeting old friends for many years, talking and laughing.

"Kong Sheng, this king has heard of your poetry for a long time, and the poems you wrote have already been recited all over the world, and my two imperial sisters have also been reading for a long time. Today is the time for its meeting, why don't you take Weishui as the theme and write a poem, so that this king and Ningguo Yining girls can open their eyes? Li smiled loudly and looked at Kong Sheng deeply.

Kong Sheng secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that what the prince said politely, in fact, he still had the heart of the school examination to see if he was a waste of fame.

Kong Sheng's most repulsive and helpless thing is to compose poetry. But in a country like Datang, as the famous No. 1 talent in Jiangnan, if he can't sing a masterpiece, I'm afraid he will be discredited, which is related to his future destiny.

He hugged his fist to Li Xian, smiled, and was about to say a few polite words, when he suddenly heard the thunder rumbling, the haze in the sky pressed down, and the fine rain fell from the sky.

The palace maids and eunuchs set up a pergola to shelter from the rain, Li Department looked up at the sky, and smiled at Ning Guo and Yi Ning: "Two sisters, this king said that there is rain today, but you don't believe it, what is the result?" However, enjoying the beautiful scenery of Weishui in the rain can be regarded as a different feeling-"

Li turned his head to look at Kong Sheng again.

Kong Sheng sighed, knowing that he couldn't hide, so he smiled slightly and said slowly: "The old man sails away, and the toad recovers." The autumn wind gives birth to Weishui, and the fallen leaves are full of Chang'an. On the day of the meeting, it was a thunderstorm and a cold storm. Lan Huan has not returned, and the news is cloudy. ”

Li listened sideways, and immediately clapped his hands with joy: "What a good talent Kong Sheng in the south of the Yangtze River, he is really talented and talented!" It's a good autumn breeze and Weishui, and the fallen leaves are full of Chang'an! The two lines of poetry end the scenery of Chang'an at this moment, which is really an eye-opener for this king! ”

Yi Ning happily clapped his hands and praised: "Okay, Kong Sheng, this palace admits that your reputation as the number one talent in Jiangnan is not touted!" Come on, record this poem to the palace, and the palace will go back and let the people in the music workshop compose and sing! ”

Princess Ningguo's eyes shone with a thick light, and there was a trace of tenderness in her gaze when she threw herself at Kong Sheng again, and she said softly: "Kong Taishou is missing his old man, I don't know where your old man went from Chang'an?" ”

Kong Sheng was secretly embarrassed, and immediately replied with a smile: "If you go back to Your Highness, the old man of Xiaguan is a native of Chang'an, and now he has set sail to the sea and gone to a very far place, as for when he will return, Kong Sheng doesn't know." ”

Princess Ning Guo sighed, and didn't ask any more.

Li laughed: "Kong Sheng's poem is not only a nostalgia for the old man, but also a metaphor for the meeting between the king and him on the bank of the Weishui River today, both times are thunderstorms, but it is also the fate destined by God!" ”

"Kong Sheng, do you have a place to live in Chang'an?" Li asked tentatively.

Kong Sheng secretly said that it was not good, but it was not easy to lie, so he had to say softly: "The lower official is waiting to enter the city to find a post house to stay, and then go to the official department to report and wait for His Majesty to summon him." ”

Li Department smiled: "What kind of post house are you looking for, as soon as you and I see each other, you will follow me back to the city and live in my house." Kong Sheng, don't worry, you have made meritorious contributions in Henan, and you have made great contributions to the country, and this queen will definitely present it to her father and the emperor in the future, and strive for a reward for you. ”

Kong Sheng secretly complained in his heart, but on the surface, he had no choice but to bow his hand and thank: "Thank you, Your Highness, Your Majesty is grateful." ”

If he lived in the palace of King Zhao, and the Li family personally played the emperor, Kong Sheng would undoubtedly be labeled as the king of Zhao, which was the result of Kong Sheng's helplessness. Fortunately, he had a good impression of the Li family, and felt that this person sat everything in the open, and there was no lack of sincerity in courting, and he acted frankly, but he was also a bright gentleman.
