Chapter 200: Rigidity and Softness
Songtsen Gampo didn't understand why Li Yuntong was crying, obviously this matter had nothing to do with her.
He was helpless and stood aside, even a little irritated, not knowing how to appease Li Yuntong.
Fortunately, Li Yuntong just cried silently, and did not cry and make a fuss, it looked like pear blossoms with rain, and the crying appearance was quite beautiful.
So he stood aside and admired the beauty's crying for a while, and waited for Li Yuntong to stop crying before asking, "Why are you crying?" ”
Li Yuntong felt bored.
Although the man in front of him likes the culture, etiquette, and legal code of the Tang Dynasty...... Even the clothes he wore recently changed to the silk of the Tang Dynasty, but he is still a Tubo man in his bones, advocating martial arts and light literature, and treating women as playthings and ornaments.
In fact, it is not only him, it is Datang, and women are not born with men.
The women of the aristocratic family are slightly better, they grow up playing small brocade clothes and jade food, and they can play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are just adding their heads, and the main thing to learn is the ability to feed in the palm of their hands, and the ability to manage the servants as the master of the house, because of this, they have become the virtuous and indispensable helpers of men. The concubines are mainly responsible for giving birth to children to please men, and even the concubines who are born are mostly educated by their wives, and their fate is almost completely in the hands of men.
If what happened to Amur happened to her, she could divorce and divorce her wife, and she would never fall to the point where she could not live.
But it is only a hundred steps of laughter at the age of fifty, and the initiator is unscathed, and the victim has to bear the consequences of losing virginity......
What if such a thing happened to a man?
Li Yuntong shook his head and smiled bitterly, if such a thing is replaced by a woman who insults a man, I am afraid that a woman will also be accused by a thousand husbands and be infamy.
No matter what, as long as a bad thing happens between men and women, the one who is wrong and the one who is unlucky must be a woman.
With this crying intensity, she might as well think about how to save Amur's life.
Although Amr framed Ram, she was not guilty of death, and she was also a woman, and Li Yuntong had a kind of sorrow that hurt her.
She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and calmly said to Songtsen Gampo: "You saved Amur from Musa's hands, and I advised her to become a nun, so that her dignity will be preserved, and she will not have to lose her life in vain." ”
Without waiting for Songtsen Gampo to refuse, Li Yuntong said again: "Amur is not at fault in this matter, if you kill her in vain, it will be a loss of your own blessing and reduce your merits, and it will not be good for you." When I hear this, I sit idly by and do nothing, and it will be detrimental to my good fortune. ”
As soon as he heard that it would harm his own interests, Songtsen Gampo hesitated for a moment, and then agreed, "But you have to tell Amur that Hugh must confide in half a word about it, otherwise, even the Buddha will not be able to save her." ”
Li Yuntong said lightly: "As long as she is not stupid, she will not say a word outside, if she is known by others, will she still live?" ”
Although a consensus was reached, Li Yuntong had a knot, although she knew that Songtsen Gampo's reaction was just the normal thinking of men, but she still felt that he was too unkind.
Next, no matter what Songtsen Gampo said, she just answered perfunctorily, and in the end, the two broke up unhappily.
Two days later, after the early dynasty of Songtsen Gampo, he unconsciously walked to the Dongyue Palace, and when the palace people saluted him, he came back to his senses.
Having already arrived at the door, it was inevitable to look deliberate when he turned around again, so Songtsen Gampo asked the palace people, "What is Zanmeng doing?" ”
"After Zanmong greeted Cai Bangsa, he went to the study." The palace man bowed his head and replied.
I happen to have some Chinese characters that I don't recognize, so you can ask. With this in mind, Songtsen Gampo calmly walked towards the study of the East Moon Palace.
When he arrived at the door of the study, he felt that his excuse was a bit far-fetched, he had a teacher who specialized in teaching Tang culture and writing, and he didn't need to come to Li Yuntong to ask at all.
She has a lot of Tang Dynasty books here, so she just borrowed two to go back.
Songtsen Gampo gave himself a second reason.
He stopped the palace maid's report, pushed the door and lifted the curtain to enter.
Because Songtsen Gampo was very light when he entered the door, when Xia Yu came up, he put his finger on his mouth and signaled her to silence, and Li Yuntong didn't notice that there was one more person in the house.
"Come and help me with some ink." Li Yuntong heard Xia Yu's footsteps, and commanded without raising his head.
Songtsen Gampo let Xia Yu stand aside and walked over lightly.
On the nine-foot-long gold silk sandalwood lacquer carving case, there are four treasures of the study, and the blue jade water bowl carved by Longquan on the side is very exquisite.
The flower carved on the water bowl is the peony is rich, the flowers and leaves are smart, there are two butterflies flying on it, the edge of the water bowl is the petals, looking at it from a distance, it is like the flower blooming too beautiful to attract the butterfly to flutter, lifelike.
Songtsen Gampo smiled and poured some water from the water bowl into the inkstone, which is also in the form of a peony flower, poured the clear water, and the original ink in it swam away, lining the ink-colored peony more agile, as if to bloom at the water's edge.
"You really brought a lot of good things from Datang." When Li Yuntong looked up and saw him, Songtsen Gampo smiled at her casually: "Although this water bowl and inkstone are made of different materials, they are carved with the same color, which is really ingenious. ”
He played with the water bowl and exclaimed: "This piece of green jade has some flaws, it's rare that he actually carved those flaws into butterfly eyes, did this craftsman follow you?" If you are in Tibet, such a craftsman should be a craftsman. ”
"He was originally a craftsman. Zampu, don't look at everything in Datang, you think it's good, since you're here, it's only serious to help me study the ink first. Li Yuntong lifted the jade tube wolf lightly, lifted the wide sleeve with one hand, and thought that the jade bracelet on his wrist was in the way, so he took it off and put it beside him.
"Speaking of which, I also saw this water bowl interesting at the time, so I sent someone to find the craftsman and got this matching inkstone."
"Although the craftsman was very skilled, he was so poor because of his drunkenness that even his wife ran away with the children, so I asked his wife and children to be retrieved, and gave them a sum of money, and the family agreed to follow them to Tibet. Zampuru likes this craftsman, I'll take you another day to see what other good things he has done lately. ”
Songtsen Gampo wanted to reveal the incident of the first two days, and Li Yuntong didn't want to mention it again, after all, for an outsider to hurt the harmony of their husband and wife, it was more than worth the loss, no matter how cold-hearted Songtsen Gampo was, as long as she was the princess of the Tang Dynasty, he would always attach importance to her.
Anyway, she came to Tubo, not to want to be happy with each other, to be compatible or anything, she came to promote the friendship between Tang and Tibet, as long as their goals are the same, why should she be like other women, care about what men think, or be sad about what has not happened to her?
She wants to be like a man, leaving some reputation in this world, so that she will not come all the way to Tibet in vain.
To achieve this, it is indispensable to use Songtsen Gampo, and even to save Amur's life, he must agree first, which really makes the two of them turn their faces, and her situation in Tibet will undoubtedly be very difficult.
Too rigid and easy to fold, soft can overcome rigidity.
Thinking of this truth, Li Yuntong naturally will not be angry with Songtsan anymore.
Seeing that Li Yuntong behaved calmly, as if the suspicion between the two of them did not exist two days ago, Songtsan Gampo breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the ink and grinded it carefully.
Seeing that the ink went down, there was a ball of black ink in the inkstone, and the peony flowers on the inkstone were all blackened, Li Yuntong said with some pity: "The things he carved are good-looking, but as soon as the ink goes, the flowers and leaves become a ball of black, and nothing can be seen." ”
Songtsen Gampo smiled: "Then you still use it?" Isn't there another inkstone, just use another one. ”
"If you don't use it there, what's your like? No matter how good something is, it is just an object, and making the best use of it is the true love for it. ”
Li Yuntong said with a heartfelt voice: "Things are just for use, if they are left there and not used, it will be boring." Moreover, because I thought that this ink would come from peony flowers, when I used it, I would write more correctly and draw better! ”
After listening to Li Yuntong's crooked reasoning, Songtsan Gampo shook his head and smiled: "If that craftsman listens to the words of a bosom friend like you, he will be very happy." His craftsmanship is exquisite, and he makes the water bowl and inkstone so exquisite, and you like it so much, which can be regarded as worthy of his good craftsmanship. ”
Li Yuntong pouted and said, "Who knows? Maybe he thinks that his craftsmanship is exquisite, and the person who got this water bowl and inkstone should be put there to enjoy it, and he shouldn't really use it, and he thinks that I am a cow chewing peonies, and I don't know how to appreciate it! But the inkstone is inkstone, if you don't use it, isn't it useless? ”
Songtsen Gampo laughed: "That's right, if the inkstone is not inkstone, it really can't be called an inkstone, people who only want to enjoy it, but they don't know that good things should be used, and they don't know the goods." ”
looked at Li Yuntong, he smiled playfully: "It's like getting married, but you don't obey your husband, you don't often go to the joy of fish and water, and you can only enjoy the fun and don't know the goods!" ”
To say something bad at such a time...... Li Yuntong secretly slandered in his stomach, his wonderful eyes turned sideways, and he glanced at him.
Her eyes were so beautiful that Songtsen Gampo couldn't help but hold her hand.
Li Yuntong took out his hand when he took the pen, dipped the jade pipe wolf pen in some ink, and handed it to Songtsan Gampo, "Zampu will write me a poem, right?" ”
"Huh?" Songtsen Gampo didn't expect her to make this request to herself, and she couldn't help but be stunned.
Li Yuntong said with a smile: "I heard that Zampu is a civil and military all-rounder, with a bold personality and no arrogant habits, not only proficient in craftsmanship, calendars, and martial arts, but also tells a lot of historical heroes and legends, folk songs, and is good at poetry creation, and often improvises poems at banquets. ”
Songtsen Gampo hesitated, "I won't write your Tang Dynasty words." ”
"It's okay, just write your Tibetan characters, I heard that Zampu asked Lord Sambuza to take the children of the nobles to Tianzhu to study, and after coming back, he created the Tibetan language, and even the marriage proposal to the Tang Dynasty was written by your own hand, I really want a picture of your ink treasure and poetry, which can be kept for daily appreciation."
Seeing Li Yuntong's admiring and adoring eyes, Songtsen Gampo was a little dizzy.
