Chapter 108: The Crisis Is Surging
Li Xili heard that Manba had returned to Xingqing Mansion, so he came to Manba's house early in the morning to visit, and in terms of official status, one of the two was the emperor's brother, and the other was a general who protected the country. But Li Xili's respect for Manba is far more than that.
Manba had a deep friendship with the Yeli family, and when the Yeli family was defeated, most of the officials in the DPRK and China were afraid to avoid Li Xili. But there is a saying that Li Xili has a deep experience, when you are glorious, your friends know who you are; When you're down, you know who your friends are.
For Liang Luoyao and Liang Yiburi's father Liang Zuowei, Li Xili is grateful at the same time, but also knows that Liang Zuowei's intentions are quite deep. But if there was no general Manba at that time, it would not be enough to rely on Liang Zuowei alone to protect Li Xili. It can be seen how important Manba is to Li Xili.
Man Baa was about to send someone to find Li Xili, and when he saw him coming, he asked Li Xili to sit down, and asked straight to the point: "Xili, next to the king from the Song Kingdom, but you invited him." ”
Li Xili was stunned for a moment, he only returned to Xingqing Mansion yesterday, and he knew this person next to the king so quickly. He hurriedly said: "Exactly, I don't know how Lord Man could ask this?" ”
In front of the man, Li Xili was more like a weak scholar, he looked at the old general in front of him, somewhat in awe. Seeing him ask about Wang Bi, he couldn't help but worry if Wang Bi and Man Baa had some old grudges. Thinking about Wang Bi is only twenty years old, and it is the first time he has come to Western Xia, there may not be old grudges, but I am afraid that he will cause some trouble?
Looking at Li Xili's suspicious expression, he laughed and said in his bell-like voice: "Don't worry about Xili, this young man is not wrong." I didn't expect that there was such a talent in the Song Kingdom, but I don't know if this person could hold any official position in the Song Kingdom? ”
Li Xili didn't dare to hide it, so he said: "This person next to Wang is just a businessman in the Song Kingdom, but he founded "Cloud Pick", which attracted the admiration of some people who like Sinology culture. He has no official position of his own, but ......"
He paused for a moment to look at Man Baa and said, "However, it is said that his father is an official of the Song State, and Wang Bi himself is also loved by Zhao Zhen, the current emperor of the Song State. ”
Baa said disdainfully: "Oh, that's nothing, and it's not an enemy general with troops." I think this kid is also quite likable. "It's also true that Manba said this, he is now nearly sixty years old, and he naturally likes it when he looks at the vigor and blood next to the king. What's more, when he comes back this time, he also plans to stay in the DPRK and consolidate his power.
Li Xili asked, "Could it be that Lord Feiman has already seen the king?" Man Baa told Li Xili what he saw on the street yesterday, and finally said: "I think this young man is a little aggressive. ”
Hearing what Manba said, Li Xili couldn't help but be nervous for Wang Bei, this Ra Lei relied on his daughter to marry Liang Yiburi, and now he is arrogant in the court, and his son Ji Raqing is not very old, but he doesn't learn all day long, how can Wang Bi have a grudge with him. However, seeing that Manba had a good impression of Wang Bi, he hurriedly said: "Wang Bi is a cloth cloth, and coming to Xixia is just a cultural exchange between the Han and the Domain, since Manda has a good impression of this person, it is better for me to introduce him to meet the adult." How is it? ”
This is exactly what Manba thinks, Li Xili left Manbaa Mansion, pondering while walking, he originally wanted to introduce Wang Bi directly to the queen, but this Wang Bi really had the idea, every day he was giving speeches and poems, or explaining the tea ceremony with food and wine, and he didn't pay attention to Li Xili's thoughts at all.
It seems that Wang Bi didn't want to cooperate with him, Li Xili didn't complain about Wang Bi, he was hesitating himself, and Wang Bi treated him politely. Sometimes Li Xili can't tell the difference, between him and the king, who is the host and who is the guest, and slowly feels that the king is acting very reasonably.
Thinking of this, Li Xili smiled helplessly in his heart, but he was seven or eight years older than Wang Bian, and he was not as thoughtful as Wang Bian when he encountered trouble. When I looked up, I saw that I had arrived at the gate of the Guan Yi and saw three or five people waiting there. When the shopkeeper saw Li Xili coming, he hurriedly took out a few famous posts, "Lord Li, this is the schedule arranged by Prince Wang tomorrow, please take a look." ”
When the king sees who he sees and who he doesn't see, Li Xili naturally has to look at him, which is polite and a rule. Wang Bei's itinerary in Xia Kingdom, since it was invited by Li Xili, naturally Li Xili had to accompany him throughout the whole process, and no one was seen except Wang Bei's rest that day, so it happened that Li Xili was also proud to breathe and arrange some of his own things.
Li Xili looked at it, and there was still no meeting with the prime minister arranged inside. He muttered a little in his heart, he was going to persuade the king, otherwise the Liang family would definitely think that he was making a hindrance, but thinking that he would also see the king today, from Li Xili's psychology, he naturally preferred to be more man.
After reading the famous post, Li Xili said: "Just follow the arrangement of the prince and explain it" walked into the Guan Yi and went up to the guest room on the second floor to find the king.
When Wang saw Li Xili coming, he knew that it was Li Xili's personal matter. asked Cai Jing to take out the tea he brought from his luggage and entertain Li Xili. Cai Jing took water to make tea, and quietly told Wang that the tea he brought was almost gone. Wang Bi knew that in addition to this matter, Cai Jing wanted to go back to Bianjing.
In fact, Wang Bi himself is also a little homesick, and it has been almost two months since he came out this time. Now that it is fast forward to Layue, it is estimated that if it is delayed like this, this year will be over in Western Xia, so it is no wonder that Cai Jing wants to go back. But you can't be in a hurry, you've been in a hurry for so many days, and if you go back like this, the king will be unwilling. Besides, he knew that it was one thing to not leave in Xingqing Mansion, and it was another thing if he clearly saw Liang Yi's famous post now, and if he didn't see it, he just left.
I heard that Manba wanted to see himself, Wang Bi readily agreed, Manba's fame Wang Bi had already heard of it, this is a general in Western Xia, and he is also upright in the Western Xia Kingdom, although he is not in agreement with the Yeli family, but the fame is indeed fought on the battlefield all year round.
Li Xili was entrusted by Manba to ask Wang Bei, seeing that Wang Bei agreed happily, he immediately sent someone to return to Manba, Manba was also urgent, so he simply set a dinner dinner to invite Wang Bei, Wang Bei saw that Manba was nothing more than a polite officialdom, but during the banquet, Wang Bei learned that Li Liangzuo was going to return to Xingqing Mansion in the near future.
At the same time, there was another person who heard about the king, that is, Ji Laqing, who was clicked by the king on the street, he drooped his head in the house where his brother-in-law Liang Yi was buried, listening to his brother-in-law's reprimand.
However, when it was a reprimand, Liang Yibury didn't dare to say it too seriously, at most it was useless. Liang Yi buried in his heart: I can't wait to kill Wang next to the street in Laqing at that time, so that I can save my own shot. Besides, this king does not give himself face, and Liang Yi's anger is not knowing where to go.
Seeing that Liang Yibury didn't say anything anymore, Ji Laqing squeezed his eyes and said, "Brother-in-law, this kid is so ignorant, otherwise when he leaves Xingqing Mansion, how about finding someone to kill him?" ”
Liang Yi slapped the table: "Bastard, next to the king is a messenger who came to communicate, if something happens in the Western Xia Kingdom, can you take it?" Ji Laqing immediately shut up and lowered his head. He was psychologically unconvinced, a Song State man dared to embarrass himself in Xingqing Mansion.
Liang Yibury saw his thoughts, pointed at him with his finger and said, "I warn you, don't say that you embarrass you in this matter, even if you embarrass Lao Tzu, there is no way." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard two coughs, and appeared at the door with a spicy thunder face. Naturally, no one dared to stop this father-in-law from entering and leaving, and when he heard that his son was ugly on the street, he guessed that he must have run to his brother-in-law for help. Usually I don't care about teaching, and I originally thought that Ji Laqing might be doing something wrong, but when he heard his son-in-law's words, Ji Lalei's face was a little unbearable.
Liang Yiburi hurriedly got up and came over to greet his father-in-law, Ji Ralei walked in front of Ji Raqing, glared at him, and then said: "What the Prime Minister said just now, don't you think that the old man has no way to teach his son?" ”
Liang Yibury heard his father-in-law call himself the prime minister, and knew that the old man was angry, so he hurriedly said: "What did my father-in-law say, it's just this kid next to the king, you don't know, relying on his own cleverness, he will do whatever he wants in the Song Kingdom." Now it's a guest again, and the two countries are not fighting for each other, not to mention that trade is blocked now, if there is a chance to trade is a big plan, how can it hurt a big plan to fight for this little child's family. ”
Ji Laqing's aggrieved interjection: "He obviously didn't take our Xixia Kingdom into account......" Before he finished speaking, he was drunk by Ji Lalei "Shut up!" "Knowing the son is not as good as the father, Ji Ra Lei is very annoyed that Ji Laqing does not learn and has no skills, but fortunately, Ji Laqing prefers martial arts, although he lost to Wang next today, but also because he is too careless to underestimate the enemy, among the descendants of the Fan people, Ji Laqing is better than ordinary children.
This also makes Ji Laqing more domineering, especially Ji Lalei knows that Ji Laqing loves swords as much as he didn't hide, and he compares knives with people when he has nothing to do.
After scolding his son, he turned his face to look at his son-in-law Liang Yiburi: "So there is no way for the Prime Minister to teach this kid a lesson?" ”
"This ......" Liang Yibury knew that Wang Bi had provoked his father-in-law this time, but now that his sister wants to see Wang Bi, he doesn't know what the queen's sister is going to do. So he said, "Now that there is a decree, it is not good to disobey this king." ”
Ji Lei sneered: "Emperor Yizong is about to return to Xingqing Mansion, if the king is shocked, I don't care who he is." ”
Liang Yibury heard his father-in-law say this, his heart moved, he leaned over and whispered a few words in his father-in-law's ear, and his father-in-law nodded and smiled. Liang Yibury not only wanted to preserve the prestige of his queen's sister, but also to teach Wang Bian to make the Great Song Kingdom speechless. Even if he can't kill Wang Fang this time, he won't let him retreat to the Song Kingdom with his whole body.
The plan was being discussed, and someone came to report that Liang Yi was buried, and Wang was invited to go to Manba's mansion. Ji Lei frowned, if he promoted the king to Li Liangzuo, this matter would not be easy to do, he asked Liang Yiburi: "Virtuous son-in-law, there are only two days to do this, we have to catch him for trespassing in the inner palace before the emperor comes back." ”
