Chapter 15 The wise king is mighty, and the iron army is not playful
Sunset West Mountain.
The original palace was full of lights, and the carriages and horses that came to the banquet blocked a street.
This is a royal banquet, and those who can step into the original palace are either rich or noble.
Not long after the establishment of the Great Xia Dynasty, the ancestors of the Qi family had Hu blood, and they did not attach much importance to etiquette and rules as much as the previous dynasty. In addition, the women of the Qi family have martial arts since the old lady, and they have never had a big defense against the difference between men and women. Therefore, the banquet is all male and female.
I saw that in the lobby at this time, the clothes were fragrant and the temples were shadowy, the women were ringing and the men were holding their chests and stomachs. In this banquet, there were princes, Rui Wang, and the original king, and there were various dignitaries, laughter, and greetings one after another.
The nobles who came from the capital, the ladies from the four counties and eight cities of Yamabara County, couldn't help but bump into each other, eager to show their style. Not to mention that King Rui has not yet married, even in the backyard of the prince, there is only the crown princess. What's more, I heard that the prince is gentle and elegant, the wise king is heroic and handsome, and the original king is sunny and bright, all of them are first-class good looks. I can't say that I can't let the girls' hearts sprout, and I can't help myself.
The men are also looking forward to being in the eyes of the nobles, and if their talents are favored by the prince or the two kings, they will be expected to be promoted and have a bright future.
Li Yun was dressed in military uniforms, with a group of girls from the Women's Army, looking around, proudly scanning everyone in the hall with his eyes, and despised everyone in his heart.
She is from a big family, a noble, and she is quite beautiful, and ordinary people don't care about it. I heard that King Rui had arrived, and I was very curious about what the heroic prince looked like in everyone's mouth.
Suddenly, I heard the chamberlain shouting: "The crown prince and princess have arrived!" King Rui has arrived! ”
Everyone saw a slender and noble man smiling, walking in front with a dignified and noble woman, followed by a tall young man with sharp eyes, and then followed by a young man dressed in white and as bright as the sun.
Everyone knows that it is the crown prince, the crown princess, the Rui king, and the original king.
The girls will be dazzled by the gentle smile of the prince, and the will will be taken by the well-defined, handsome and upright King Rui, and then attracted by the original king who is as bright and noble as the sun.
When the prince and others sat down, everyone in the hall knelt down, and the mountain shouted long live, shouting: "Please St. Ann!" ”
The prince got up and faced the south and said, "Holy bow! ”
Then everyone knelt down again to worship the prince and the original king of Rui, and then sat down.
The crown prince smiled and said: "Since the establishment of my Great Xia, I have entrusted the protection of my ancestors and inherited the efforts of all the people, so that the government and the opposition are peaceful and the people are healthy. Today, Gu was entrusted by the saint to lead the royal family to worship their ancestors, protect my Daxia River Qinghai Concubine, and the people will be rich. I dare not be idle, I hope you will help you to complete the ceremony. ”
Everyone hurriedly got up and knelt down again, saying, "Dare not do your best!" ”
The prince smiled.
The crown princess sat beside the prince and said with a smile: "No big ceremony tonight, everyone have fun." ”
All kinds of dishes and drinks were carried up by the palace people like water, and the cups in front of them were full of pots in a flash.
Li Xiaojie led the forbidden army to protect the prince and also came to the mountain plain. At this moment, with his wife Qin, his sister Li Yun sat under the head of the original king, obliquely facing King Rui.
He raised his wine glass, stepped forward to the prince and his wife, and said with a smile: "I wish Your Highness and your mother good health, and you will get the prince early!" ”
The prince's smile remained unchanged, but he didn't reply to him. The crown princess pursed her lips and said with a forced smile: "The great commander has good intentions, and this palace knows it." Have a heart! ”
Li Xiaojie bowed and retreated, raised his glass to King Rui again, and raised his glass and said: "King Rui guards the land and the people, and the officials admire!" Allow the official to drink the wine in the cup to show respect. ”
King Rui raised his eyelids and said with a smile: "This king is stationed at the border pass, which is the will of the saints. It is my Great Xia border pass that is guarded, and it is my Great Xia people who are protected, so I don't have to worry about the Great Commander! ”
Li Xiaojie's face changed slightly, so he had to drink the wine in the glass. suppressed the resentment in his heart, turned around and poured the wine and went to the original king.
The original king didn't wait for Li Xiaojie to speak, and said with a smile: "Xiao Wang is an idle prince, but he can't afford the respect of the commander." Do it first! ”
After speaking, he raised his head and drank all the wine in his cup.
Li Xiaojie laughed and said: "The original king is refreshing! But his eyes were cold.
Li Yun sat down, and when she saw Queen Rui, she almost didn't want to make a mistake. The Rui Wang in front of him is tall, with broad shoulders and a thin waist. The contours of the face are like knives, the gaze is resolute, and the face is impeccable. In addition, the person who led the troops was imposing, and he showed his true male character.
Li Yun has always been arrogant, and she naturally admires a great husband like King Rui. I felt that my heart was uncontrollable, and I wanted to jump out of my chest. If a hand grows out of his eye, I'm afraid he will have to hold King Rui tightly.
Rui Wang felt Li Yun's passionate gaze, and swept it lightly, Li Yun only felt that the sharp and cold breath seemed to rip through her face. She did not retreat, but advanced, stood up and arched her hand to King Rui and said, "Li Yun, the chief of the five-grade guard of the Women's Army, pays a visit to King Rui. ”
The crown princess "chuckled" in her heart, and secretly said, "Oh no! ”
Seeing that King Rui's sword eyebrows twisted, he shouted in a deep voice: "The soldiers of the Women's Army are all bloody and iron-clad on the battlefield, who are you, how dare you pretend to be the soldiers of the Women's Army!" ”
Li Yun was embarrassed and protested: "Xia Guan is the crown princess's personal seal of the five-grade guard of the Women's Army, is it a false title?" ”
King Rui turned his head to the crown princess and asked: "The Women's Army was wiped out ten years ago, but this king didn't know that the daughter of the Li clan could actually meddle in the military affairs of the Women's Army!" ”
In King Rui's words, even the crown princess did not recognize it.
The lobby was silent and silent.
The crown princess forced a smile: "King Rui has lived in the border for a long time, and I don't know that there are court affairs. Three years ago, the palace asked the prince to rebuild the women's army to protect the women in the palace and the royal family, which was led by the palace. ”
King Rui sneered: "The women's army is on the top of the saint, and the people are protected below, and they have made great contributions to Great Xia. How can you become a woman's plaything? In addition, the military flag and handsome seal of the women's army are the current queen mother, and the old lady of the Qi family in the past was personally awarded to General Qi, but there was no trace of it as early as ten years ago, but I didn't know that the prince could cross the queen mother and order a beautiful woman to re-take charge of the handsome seal! ”
The crown prince said angrily: "King Rui is cautious! Lone invited the Queen Mother Yizhi, and couldn't bear to lose the prestige of the Women's Army, so she ordered the Crown Princess to rebuild the Iron Army. King Hugh is presumptuous. ”
Rui Wang pointed at Li Yun and sneered: "Tiejun? Even these pretentious people dare to call themselves the Iron Army! I'm afraid that the prince has forgotten how brilliant General Qi was back then! ”
King Rui stood tall and scornful, and swept over everyone in front of him with contempt. Seeing that the prince's face was blue and the princess's face was sinking like water, Li Yun was annoyed and angry.
The original king was stunned.
Ten years have passed, King Rui and the crown prince are still on the same page, how can this knot be sorted out by his younger brother? Unexpectedly, on the first day of meeting, in front of the public, King Rui had a seizure.
The original king stiffened his head and said to the prince: "Brother prince, King Rui has traveled for a long time, I'm afraid I'm tired." The younger brother will take the elder brother of Rui Wang down first. ”
The prince closed his eyes and said astringently: "That's it, I'm tired of being alone, so let's leave the table first." The two royal brothers are at their own convenience. ”
Gonggong Quan hurriedly led a group of palace attendants to withdraw with the prince. The crown princess glared at Li Yun fiercely and left.
King Rui took the wine jug from the hand of the maid of the palace, poured it down, threw the jug, and rushed out of the hall without saying a word. After a while, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, but I saw King Rui riding a horse galloping out of the palace and leaving.
Everyone in the lobby did not expect to encounter such a situation, trembling, barely staying for a while, and then dispersed.
