Chapter 33: Borrowing Soldiers
When Shu Yichen saw Lan Kang for the first time, he had already let down half of his guard in his heart, and he also thought that he had met a very face-to-face opponent, and this negotiation would definitely be done according to his own requirements.
The wind reception banquet is set up in the rain pavilion outside the imperial garden, although the place is not big, but it is better in being chic and exquisite, the scenery from a distance is also beautiful, you can just see the lotus flowers one after another, which makes people's mood can't help but get better.
"Come on, come on, for the monarch of the Blue Snow Country to come from afar, let's toast the monarch of the Blue Snow Country!"
With Su Yichen's call, everyone raised their wine glasses, looked at Lan Kang with a smile on their faces, and waited for Lan Kang to stand up too, either drink directly, or say something with Shu Yichen.
Pinching the wine glass in front of him, Lan Kang slowly stood up and smiled modestly: "Oh, if you want to respect, this glass of wine should also be Prince Gujing." It was Gu who did not send someone to send a book in advance to explain his intentions, which caused trouble to the prince of Bac Ninh. ”
"Heh, we're all relatives by nature, why are you talking about it like that!" Su Yichen deliberately drew the relationship between the two people, and he had to mention it from time to time, as if he was afraid that he would forget the princess of Beining who married into the Blue Snow Country. To tell the truth, Su Yichen can't remember the title of the princess now, and she can't even remember her appearance, but she vaguely recalls that on the day she got married, she cried very miserably, and later, it rained even in the sky, which made her father very unhappy and scolded her. Come to think of it, I don't think I want to marry so far.
Listening to Su Yichen's words, Lan Kang just laughed and didn't say much else. In order to avoid embarrassment, Su Yichen first drank the wine in the cup, and then Lan Kang also raised his head and drank it. Seeing Lan Kangken drinking his toast, Su Yichen's eyes were dyed with joy, and then he took advantage of the situation and said: "I think, the monarch of the Blue Snow Kingdom should also know the recent difficulties of our Beining, it happens that you are traveling to Beining today, I will tell you the truth, there are difficulties in Beining now, and it is indeed difficult to fight against those traitors in Lanling with his own strength." If...... If the monarch of the Blue Snow Country can send troops to help at this time, then the people in Kyushu will definitely spread the good name of the Lord of the Blue Snow Country to every corner! And we in Bac Ninh will not repay this kindness, and the treasures of beauties will not be less! ”
Su Yichen tried his best to lower his figure, after all, he is still only the crown prince now, and he is only temporarily replacing the power of the Emperor of Bac Ninh, and he will not insult the national prestige.
After hearing Su Yichen's pleading, Lan Kang still maintained a decent smile, making it impossible to see what was hidden behind this smile.
The palm of his hand involuntarily clenched the wine glass, and Shu Yichen felt that the smile on his face could no longer be maintained, and this Lan Kang could laugh for so long, and he didn't see him cramp or anything, what a strange person.
Seeing that the scene was a bit deadlocked, the prime minister suddenly clapped his hands and called out loudly: "With good wine, how can there be no beauty and the joy of silk and bamboo?" Come on, let the dancing girl come up and dance! ”
Hearing the voice of the prime minister, noble and elegant music immediately sounded behind the curtain, and at the same time, there were sexily dressed dancers coming out one after another, twisting their waists and foxy eyes, which could make every man who saw it boil with blood. Among them, among the dancing girls, the woman who leads the dance is the most enchanting, her waist is slender, like a snake, her chest is soft, which leads people to reverie, and her slender legs continue to change her dancing posture, which is breathtaking. Although the face is covered with a veil, you can tell from the eyes that can almost drip water that this must be a peerless beauty.
Su Yichen was also looking at this woman, thinking to himself that such a peerless beauty, why hadn't he noticed it before? It seems that the beauties in this palace are really big waves and need to be discovered.
It's just that after Shu Yichen pondered for a while, when he asked this woman to go to his palace, the dancing girl bent down, bent over to Lan Kang's table, smiled with her eyes, and kept making wave-like movements with the music in her hands, and then turned around and sat on Lan Kang's body!
At that moment, everyone present looked at the dancing girl in amazement, thinking that woman was really bold, even if she asked for attention, she should flatter His Royal Highness the Prince, what should she do to the monarch of the Blue Snow Country?
The eyelashes were raised slightly, and Bai Lilan, who was dressed as a dancing girl, quietly stuffed a note in Lan Kang's hand, and Lan Kang's smile did not change, still gentle and kind, and before everyone noticed, he clenched the note in his fist.
The sound of the music suddenly increased, as if ten thousand horses were galloping, and the dancing girls also accelerated their dancing speed, and Baili Lan also got up from Lan Kang's arms, joined the team of dancing girls, and twisted their bodies at will, and then at the climax of the music, the women used their bodies to ring into a flower-shaped, and it ended wonderfully.
If it weren't for Bai Lilan's amazing move just now, then after this dance is over, someone will cheer for it, and even Su Yichen will take a fancy to Bai Lilan, who is leading the dance, and appoint her as his new concubine. But now, because of the change, none of the ministers know how to break this deadlock, and Su Yichen's face is a little ugly, and everyone dare not speak loudly.
At this moment, Lan Kang slowly raised his palms and said with a smile: "Yes, it's really good, let Gu open his eyes!" ”
Hearing that Lan Kang liked it, all the ministers smiled again, and then echoed one after another, praising the performance of the dancing girl, and Su Yichen had to pull out a smile, which was reluctantly agreed with Lan Kang's opinion.
"Just now, the prince asked Gu, can you send troops to Beining to help you defeat King Lanling, Gu has now thought of the answer!"
These words made Su Yichen put all his unhappiness in the back of his mind, his eyes became bright, he looked directly at Lan Kang, and eagerly confirmed: "Is this true? We have evidence for this, and some words are not just words! ”
"I was very serious, and I didn't mean to be playful, and I fell in love with the girl at first sight, as if she was the beautiful woman I had been looking for all my life. If you are lucky enough to marry her, then borrowing soldiers or something is not a problem at all! ”
exchanging a dancing girl for the army to save the country is a very cost-effective deal, so Shu Yichen agreed to this matter without hesitation. Summoned the bold dancing girl back again, Shu Yichen announced in public that he would give this woman to the monarch of Lan Xue Kingdom, and at the same time, there was also a clause signed by the two countries to borrow troops to prevent Lan Xue Guo from being untrustworthy.
Lan Kang signed this agreement with a smile, and then seemed to be impatient, wanting to take away the dancing girl around him and go back to the Spring Festival for a moment.
got the protection of the Blue Snow Country, and Su Yichen's heart that had been hanging for a long time finally fell. It's just that when he looks at the back of the dancing girl, there is always a sense of familiarity, and this familiarity is always fleeting, and it is too late to catch its tail. At the same time, there is a sense of loss in my heart, which always makes Su Yichen feel uneasy.
Following Lan Kang out of the palace, Baili Lan kept wearing a veil and got into a carriage that looked ordinary, but the interior was luxurious.
Looking at this dancing girl, Lan Kang seemed to throw her a cloak and said, "Let's put it on first, it's easy for me to lose my attention when talking to such a bewitching woman." ”
Through the veil, Bai Lilan pursed her lips, secretly thinking that this man was a humble gentleman verbally, but it was really hard to say how it was. A man like this, Bai Lilan has seen a lot, on the surface, he does what he says, and he is infinitely beautiful, but in fact he is just talking about it and not practicing it, purely to make others happy, and he is just doing his best.
After Baili Lan slowly approved the cloak, Lan Kang unfolded the note that Bai Li Lan had just stuffed to her, and said: "'If you want to win the world, you must destroy Beining first', why don't I understand this too much?" I also asked the girl to help explain. ”
Quietly lifting the curtain, Bai Lilan stared at the situation outside, and said: "Then what is there to explain, as long as you cover Beining, you can not only establish power in Kyushu, but also get the capital of Beining." As we all know, the capital of Bac Ninh is a treasure land, notoriously easy to defend and difficult to attack, no, it should be said that it is easy to defend without attack, as long as the city gate is closed, no matter how many troops you have, you can only look at the opposite city wall and jump to your feet. Because even the moat is like a chasm, and it is difficult to cross. And now Bac Ninh is not a country at all, except for the ten cities near the capital that are still under the control of Bac Ninh, all other places have been captured by the king of Lanling and swallowed up, it is a matter of time. ”
Lan Kang nodded very facefully, and continued according to Baili Lan's train of thought, "The capital of Beining is indeed a treasure land. But as you said, the place is easy to defend and not attacked, so how can I attack it? ”
In fact, Bai Lilan wrote a note to Lan Kang just to borrow him to leave the palace, as for what note, it was just to attract his attention, and he wrote it casually, and now he wants her to explain it at length, which is really strange for brain cells.
Scratching his ears, Bai Lilan said: "This reason is very simple, as long as someone can open the city gate for you from the inside, you can not drive straight in without a single soldier." As for who will open the gates for you...... It just so happened that the prince of Beining asked you to borrow troops, so you took this opportunity to enter with the power of An **, and when the time came, you would fight back and open the city gate, and the victory would be yours! ”
The smile on the corner of his mouth slowly deepened, and Lan Kang said: "But don't forget, at that time, there was still King Lanling outside the city gate, even if I didn't consider how I could reach the capital of Beining before King Lanling, just say that after I worked hard to rush into the capital, I had already suffered a lot of losses, how could I compete with King Lanling?" Isn't this making a wedding dress for someone else? ”
Bai Lilan was a little tired of such a conversation, and said with a frown: "The reason why King Lanling sent troops to attack the capital is also because of me. Now that I've left the capital and am not controlled by the people in the palace, why does he have to go to great lengths? ”
"Because of you?" Lan Kang looked at Baili Lan again, and said suspiciously: "Could it be that you are his princess, Bai Li Lan?" ”
Bai Lilan's eyes didn't take his eyes off the scenery outside the window, and nodded carelessly.
As if he had suddenly thought of something, Lan Kang laughed out loud, and his smug look made people want to beat him.
"What are you doing laughing so loudly, it's noisy! Besides, even if you know that I'm Baililan, it won't be of any use to you. ”
