Chapter 33: Prelude to the Pilgrimage
In the early morning of the second day, just after five o'clock, the rising sun had just emerged from the horizon, so the imperial city compound was still a world of night.
In the Divine Dragon Palace, it was already full of lights, and the hall was as bright as day.
"I'm going to drink beer, I can drink Lao Tzu like a dog, I'm really drunk! This night, it's so uncomfortable! β
Li Yuanba sat on the edge of Hu's bed, stretching out his head and franticly crushing to a brass basin, like a little daughter-in-law who had been wronged in her husband's house, crying with her mother's family.
"Hehe, my lord, last night you drank your majesty, the nine princes and the ten princesses, and the queen mother kept complaining, saying that she would not give you any wine to drink in the future!" The tender little Lori Xia'er wiped the soft silk in her hand on Li Yuanba's face with a smile, and then changed Li Yuanba's clothes with her hands and feet.
Li Yuanba muttered with some dissatisfaction: "It's not that my uncle wants to drink with them, it's those unlucky children who want to drink with my uncle one by one." However, why do I feel that these melon babies are hostile to me? β
Yes, the unlucky child who opened his mouth and closed his mouth, Gua Wazi, is Li Yuanba, the master who has no class concept at all, dares to call the top second generation of emperors in the Tang Dynasty.
"My lord, what else do you say, after the prince and His Royal Highness the King of Shu returned to their respective dormitories yesterday, they sent people to send ginseng and lingzhi respectively, saying that they were going to boil it into soup to relieve your alcohol. Where are the princes hostile to you? That's right......"
Xia'er helped Li Yuanba put on his deerskin boots, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and hurriedly ran towards the apse of the Divine Dragon Palace.
"Li Chengqian and Li Ke?" When Li Yuanba heard these two familiar names, his expression couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and he said in his heart: "These two stinky boys have such good intentions? No, how old is this, you know how to win people's hearts in advance. However, uncle, I don't have oil and salt, if you dare to send me, you dare to ask for it, anyway, the battle for the throne or something, it has nothing to do with uncle! β
Thinking of this, Li Yuanba grinned.
At this moment, Xia'er walked back from the apse with a red face, and a blue and white bowl was still held in her soft and boneless little hand.
She slowly came to Li Yuanba, put the blue and white bowl in her hand on the table, and said: "My lord, after a while, Your Majesty will let Gonggong Liu come to the Shenlong Hall to pick you up and go to the Taiji Hall to participate in the court meeting, this is the century-old ginseng boiled into the decanting soup sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince last night, you drink this soup quickly, and you will go to the court meeting later." β
As she spoke, Xia'er picked up the blue and white bowl, stirred it with a spoon, and gently blew the cool air.
Little Lori's cautious expression stunned Li Yuanba.
You must know that in his previous life, where could Huaxia find such a pure natural, pollution-free, and super invincible soft girl paper that was not poked by others.
Therefore, to say that Li Yuanba has no idea about this little girl in his heart, it is definitely a cheat!
After all, this thing is not a decent gentleman, but Xia'er is only fourteen years old now, only two years older than Princess Gaoyang, and Li Yuanba's body has remained at the age of sixteen because of the lightning split incident nineteen years ago and the Xuanbing ban for many years.
Between the ages of twelve and eighteen belong to the teenage period, it is the fastest growth and development of the years, if you want this little girl now, not to mention whether people are willing or not, whether it will affect the normal growth of the body in the future, even if it is Li Yuanba himself, I am afraid that he will not be able to pass the level in his heart, and he will scold himself for being a bird. Beasts are inferior.
So, let's let it go, uncle is not a fowl. Beasts, not fowls; The beast is not as good, the emperor can cultivate it, let alone a person. Wife!
β¦β¦
At this moment, on the palace square of Taiji Palace, a group of murderous Praetorian Guards wearing black armor were patrolling back and forth.
In the very center of the square, there is a team of 100 officials, one literate and one martial, and two teams of 100 officials, under the leadership of the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing and Li Xiaogong, are slowly moving towards the Taiji Palace.
On the side of the civil team, followed by the eldest grandson Wuji is Wei Zheng, he Wei Heizi is a well-known minister in the Tang Dynasty, what is there to say, as long as your emperor Lao Tzu dares to make mistakes, I dare to join you, that sour and stubborn shelf, and Kong Lao Er has a fight.
However, Li Shimin couldn't beat or scold him, because he understood the truth that 'the king has a reprimand, and he will not lose the country', and he really needs such an upright person around him to remind himself from time to time: where he did wrong, where he did not do enough.
Over time, Wei Heizi also organized a few subordinates who dared to speak out, but unlike Wei Zheng, a few ministers under him couldn't distinguish between big and small things, and they couldn't tell the priorities, whenever Li Shimin made a little mistake, they would catch it, so Li Shimin was sometimes helpless.
At this moment, following closely behind Wei Zheng, two old men who looked quite old were muttering as they walked.
The old man on the left said: "I heard that His Majesty went to the Shangshi Bureau yesterday, but is there such a thing?" β
Otherwise, the speed of spreading news in this palace is fast, and what happened just yesterday has spread to everyone in the early hours of this morning.
After hearing the words of his colleague, the old man on the right nodded very firmly and said: "There is such a thing, and His Majesty XiΓ still went away in a slight suit, and he did not bring a guard with him, and he was almost injured by a pig last afternoon!" β
"As the so-called 'gentleman is far away from cooking', how can the Son of Heaven be able to drive to the ground in a place such as the Shangshi Bureau? Isn't this a defilement of the Eucharist? After the morning comes, I am willing to die! "The old man had an expression of 'I'd rather die if I don't admonish', as if he was great.
The old man Yi also nodded and said, "The emperor is the body of all saints, how can there be no guards around him?" After going to the palace, my brother also died! β
Wei Zheng was in front of these two old men, and he also knew about yesterday's emperor not bringing a single soldier and Weifu going to the Shangshi Bureau, and when he was thinking about finding a good reason for the emperor to listen to these two advices, he heard the words of the two old men behind him, and couldn't help frowning. Think about it, who can stand this death at every turn?
And this is talking about the emperor in private, if the tongue is chewed, he must not be stabbed to the emperor? With the emperor's very good-looking character, these two old men will never be able to run away with ten big black sticks per person.
Just when Wei Zheng wanted to turn his head and reprimand the two old men, a very rough voice came from the military attachΓ© team, and the words almost made the two old men angry:
"You two old sours, are you full and have nothing to do? You can go wherever you want, do your? If you don't die today, I'll kill you both with my own hands! β
