Chapter 25: The Meaning of Life

Xiahou Yong drank the wine in the cup and said, "Mingyuan, what is the name of this poem?" ”

Li Mingyuan was stunned, how can you ask me, this is obviously done by you? However, Li Mingyuan still said respectfully, "Master Hou, this is the song you made!" ”

Xiahou Yong smiled awkwardly, shook his head and said, "Don't put gold on my face!" What can I do with this song! ”

"The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep!" Xie Xian couldn't help but read it again, his face showing fascination, "Such a beautiful scenery, I really want to see it with my own eyes!" ”

Everyone here, Xiahou Yong and other generals are accustomed to seeing the horse grassland, and Li Mingyuan's song can resonate with them very much. And Xie Xian and the others were also fascinated, but they never saw it with their own eyes, so they had to imagine it in their hearts.

"Has His Royal Highness King Liang ever seen such a beautiful scenery?" Xie Xian asked King Liang next to him.

Zhao Changwen shook his head and said regretfully, "Although I am sealed in Liangzhou, let alone going to the grassland, I haven't even taken a step out of Yumen Pass!" ”

"Your Highness is a daughter, it's better to be careful!" A trace of regret flashed in Xie Xian's heart, but then admonished.

"Eh, if there is a chance, this king must go and see with his own eyes, to see the beautiful scenery of the wind and grass and the cattle and sheep!" King Liang cut the railway.

Ma Yangping was completely convinced at the moment, but when he heard King Liang's words, he immediately retorted, "Your Highness must not be reckless, the Huns outside the gate are brutal, if Your Highness has three long and two short, how can we explain to the emperor?" "King Liang, who was originally ambitious, instantly withered.

"Life is in the world, and the grass and trees are autumn. What's the point of living in one place for the rest of your life? Why can't we go out of the city to take a walk and see the magnificent rivers and mountains of my Dahua? Li Mingyuan couldn't help but speak.

Liang Wang Zhao Changwen's eyes lit up instantly, and he couldn't help but say, "Mingyuan, have you walked a lot of places?" Tell me about it! ”

"Your Highness, I have a lot of land and resources, not to mention the long-famous three rivers and five mountains, in the northernmost part of my Dahua Youzhou, the Altay Haba River, the spring is windy, the summer is rainy, the autumn is cool, and the winter is cold and long. There are two major water systems in the territory: the Irtysh River and the Ulungu River. The Irtysh River is the only river that flows into the ocean in Dahua, and is known as the "fishing town of the northern country".

At this time, everyone was already obsessed with Li Mingyuan, and followed Li Mingyuan's introduction in their hearts, imagining the boundless beauty.

"As for Dingxi, Gansu Province, which is in Liangzhou, it also has a long history and obvious location advantages. It is an important birthplace of civilization in the upper reaches of the Yellow River. There are the famous Majiayao culture, Qijia culture, Siwa culture and Xindian culture in the Neolithic Age. Since ancient times, it has been an "important town" of the Silk Road. ”

"In addition, there is Guizhou Liupanshui from north to south, karst natural features, ancient cultural sites, more than 30 ethnic splendid folk customs and folk culture, like pearls inlaid in the land of Wumeng!"

Li Mingyuan drank a glass of wine and continued, "In addition, there is the Brahmaputra River, which is called the Ma River in Tibetan, which means water flowing from the mouth of a good horse. The Himalayas in Yunnan Province have more than 70 peaks. In the westernmost part of my Dahua is called Tibet, where there is a Lhasa River, which originates in the Mira Snow Mountain, raising countless Tibetans, the people there are hospitable, often along the banks of the Lhasa River, in the river valley, setting up tents, or fishing, or playing in the water, or bathing, drinking butter tea, eating all kinds of delicacies brought from home, enjoying the bright sunshine and leisure of Lhasa, much like our Han people's picnic! ”

Li Mingyuan said a long paragraph in one breath, and everyone was fascinated by it. Don't say that those family singers, even the well-informed Xie Xian, have only heard of many things or read them in miscellaneous books, let alone be like Li Mingyuan.

"Mingyuan, have you been to any of these places?" King Liang said enviously.

Li Mingyuan's eyes couldn't help but flash a hint of gloom, "I haven't been there, but in my lifetime, I must go and take a look, otherwise I won't be blind!" ”

"Okay, take me with you then, and we'll go together!" King Liang clapped his hands happily.

"If Your Highness is not afraid of the difficult journey, of course you can!" Li Mingyuan said generously.

"No, you are fooling around, how noble is the body of His Royal Highness's daughter, what kind of errand do you have?" Ma Yangping and Zhu Zhiqing made a complaint together.

"The canary in the cage is far less painful than the eagle fighting the sky!" Li Mingyuan said disdainfully, but let King Liang nod again and again.

At this time, Xie Xian already had an urge to knock Li Mingyuan unconscious and bring him back to the capital, this guy is simply a genius! If he assists, Dahua will definitely be iron-clad.

"It's not early tonight!" Xie Xian planned to talk to Li Mingyuan in person. Everyone present immediately agreed, got up to thank Lu Xie Xian and Xia Hou Yong for the banquet, and said goodbye one after another.

Before leaving, King Liang stuffed a jade plaque in Li Mingyuan's hand and said, "Mingyuan, if you have time to go to my palace, take this jade plaque, no one can stop you!" "Actually, what Zhao Changwen wants to say is that I am waiting for you in the palace, you must come!

"I wish my lord, you go back first, I have something to say to Master Hou!" After Xie Xian sent Zhu Zhiqing away, he asked Xiahou Yong to clear the unrelated people, and there were only three people left in the house.

"Master Hou, Mingyuan, sit down!" Xie Xian picked up a cup of strong tea and said, "Master Hou, I came here with the emperor's secret decree!" ”

As soon as he heard that Xie Xian seemed to be about to talk about some important topic, Li Mingyuan immediately got up and said, "My lord, Master Hou, you talk, I will avoid it!" ”

Xie Xian did smile slightly, "Mingyuan is the person of the Hou Ye, and naturally he is also a person I trust, you don't have to avoid it!" ”

Xiahou Yong also motioned for him to sit down, of course, this is not that the two of them are not cautious, because Li Mingyuan's three generations can be said to have been checked and are very innocent, not to mention that the Li family is full of loyalty. Such a person is certainly trustworthy.

"Your Majesty is ready to use force!" Xie Xian said softly.

Xiahou Yong's face was solemn, and Li Mingyuan looked dazed.

"Master Hou, you are an expert, tell me, if you want to eradicate my Dahua's internal and external troubles, how long will it take?"

Xiahou Yong heard Xie Xian's inquiry, lowered his head and pondered for a while, then shook his head with difficulty.

"Lord Xie, why is the emperor in such a hurry, the current situation is not to mention eradicating internal and external troubles, it is already very difficult to maintain this situation!" Xiahou Yong said bitterly.

Xie Xian took a sip of strong tea and frowned, "What does Master Hou mean by this?" Could it be that with the power of my great power, I can't sweep away the Huns and Turks? ”

From Xie Xian's words, it is clear that he knows nothing about military affairs, how can the Xiongnu and Turks be so easy to sweep away. Since ancient times, the cultivators and the nomads have been in constant conflict, but it is difficult for the cultivators to compete head-on with them in addition to defending their positions, because the combat power of these two nations is not the same level.
