Chapter 3: Li Er's Secrets
Coming out of the imperial study, when I arrived at the palace gate, a woman dressed in luxurious clothes had been waiting here for a long time.
I saw Queen Deshan see Xu Yang walking out of the palace, and walked up with a face of three points of expectation and seven points of anxiety, "General, His Majesty of the Tang Dynasty" Queen Deshan wanted to speak and stopped.
Xu Yang's face was indescribably weird, "Your Majesty said, it's not impossible to send troops." ”
Queen Deshan's somewhat pale face instantly turned a little flushed, and she muttered to herself: "I'm saved Silla, Silla is saved."
"But" Xu Yang paused, still a little embarrassed in his expression.
"But what?" The richly dressed woman asked hurriedly.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty, he asked you to go to the Wenxiang Hall tonight to discuss state affairs with him" After speaking, Xu Yang felt that the whole person had become a little obscene, Li Er, an old pervert, was very cunning, and immediately reacted as soon as he heard his request to send troops, and asked if it was the Queen of Silla who interceded with him, Xu Yang of course did not hide anything, so he had to explain the matter honestly.
Li Er laughed a few times, and whispered a few words in Xu Yang, what do you want to discuss state affairs with Queen Silla, and he said it so righteously, but the location of the conversation was chosen in the Wenxiang Palace, which fully exposed his purpose, and the most important thing was that such a fragrant task was assigned to him, and he didn't even hear the white eyebrows next to him.
When the Queen of Silla heard this, her face immediately became a little crimson, how could she not hear the meaning of the Smell Fragrance Palace, which is the place where the newly elected official concubines of the Tang Dynasty smell the fragrance every year, and most of the concubines who are fortunate to come from there.
Xu Yang's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw the change in Queen Deshan's face.
"Do you know what that place is?" Xu Yang's tone was admitted.
"Well, that's where His Majesty of the Tang Kingdom chooses a concubine every year, and it's a place of pampering." Queen Deshan said.
Xu Yang stared at Queen Deshan twice, her beautiful face and smooth skin were the same as her sister, she looked like a country and a city, no wonder Li Er was also moved.
"The woman takes the body in exchange, I personally am very opposed, if you don't want to, I will ask His Majesty for instructions and ask him to take back his life." Xu Yang said sternly.
"No need, if you want to get it, you have to pay, and I have been ready for it from a very long time ago to save the people of Silla with my body." Queen Deshan's tone was very flat, as if she had seen through it from the beginning.
Such righteous and awe-inspiring words made Xu Yang suddenly feel that Datang was very shameless, and there was always a feeling of taking advantage of others' danger.
"I'm sorry" Xu Yang didn't know what to say.
Queen Deshan looked at the huge imperial study in the distance, the glazed tiles shimmering with golden brilliance in the sunlight, and she said slowly: "The general doesn't need to apologize, this world is like this, the weak eat the strong, the weak are dependent on the strong, haven't I Silla always been a vassal of the Tang Dynasty?" ”
Xu Yang lowered his head, yes, the strength of the Tang Dynasty made the surrounding small countries become vassals, but in the later generations of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, China was weak, and the small countries did not want to be vassals anymore, but slaughtered and discriminated against China, which itself is a world of the jungle and the strong, there is no right or wrong, and his own background determines that he must take the interests of the Tang people as the premise, which is why he went to sea to occupy those islands, and the land that he measured has now all become the land of the Tang Dynasty
Queen Deshan went to prepare, Xu Yang knew that tonight was destined to be another sleepless night, shook his head, thinking about what to do so much, his daughter-in-law had not touched it, so he thought about Li Er's affair every day, he was really in his twenties.
Finally came to the imperial city once, naturally I had to take a good stroll, accompanied by a goldfish bag around my waist, that was the heirloom fish bag that Li Er gave himself, he could pass it on to his son after his death, and the son could pass it on to his grandson after his death, and his children and grandchildren would rest with the country.
The father-in-law who will pass the decree tomorrow will go to Xujiazhuang to walk in a circle, and pass on the division of the position of the marquis, and the etiquette cannot be shabby.
The garrison of the imperial city was very strict, but the goldfish bag on Xu Yang's waist was also extremely conspicuous, and no soldier dared to stop and ask.
Xu Yang shook around and entered the forbidden garden of the imperial city, which was now a place where the imperial city was quite heavily guarded.
After three guards, I finally arrived at the forbidden garden of the imperial city.
The Forbidden Garden used to be the royal back garden, and many unfavored concubines used to like to plant some fruits and vegetables on the land around the Forbidden Garden, and they also subsidized their meals on weekdays.
And now the Forbidden Garden has been tightly sealed, and several cold palaces around it have been moved to other parts of the Imperial City.
The gate of the forbidden garden was still built in the Sui period, and the flowers, birds, insects and fish carved on it are lifelike, and the four soldiers in armor at the door look ahead, looking majestic.
Xu Yang was about to go in as he took a step, but he didn't expect to stop it, and the two spears were in front of him, looking cold and shining.
Xu Yang was a little unhappy, "Do you know who I am?" ”
"No matter who it is, they are not allowed to enter the Forbidden Garden unless they have a decree from His Majesty." The sergeant at the head said firmly.
"Hey, I said, now I brought back all the things grown in this forbidden garden, so I can't see it." Xu Yang felt the deep malice of feudalism.
"No one is allowed to enter without His Majesty's edict." The sergeant said responsibly, but the rigid expression was really unpleasant.
Xu Yang didn't want to be angry with these soldiers, he just did his duty, he turned his head and wanted to leave, but he didn't expect a light female voice from the forbidden garden: "Who should be in this palace to hang out in this imperial city during the day, it turns out to be the Marquis Xu Guigu, let him in." ”
"No!" The sergeants immediately lowered their spears like a man.
Xu Yang's curiosity was aroused, this voice was so familiar, and he hurriedly walked into the garden gate, and saw a beautiful woman wearing a lotus robe, who was the eldest grandson queen.
Empress Eldest Sun pulled her hair in a bun under the service of several maids, looking elegant and charming.
"How can Guigu have time to come to the Imperial City today." Empress Eldest Sun didn't know about Li Er's summoning of Xu Yang, let alone about Li Er's going to 'open meat' tonight.
Of course, Xu Yang would not be stupid enough to confess, and saluted with his fists: "The minister wanted to come to the Forbidden Garden today to see the growth of overseas crops, but I didn't expect to meet the queen mother here." ”
Empress Eldest Sun giggled, I have to say that having two children not only did not make her look older, but had a familiar softness.
"This palace also wanted to come and see these high-yield crops today, but I didn't expect to meet the ghost valley who returned from overseas, come and come, and talk to this palace about the magic of these crops." Empress Eldest Sun chuckled and beckoned to Xu Yang. R1152
