Chapter 33: The Sulking Emperor
From Li Yunqing's order to the killing of the five rebel lieutenants, it took only a few breaths, and the rebel lieutenants were all dead! The eyes of the two lieutenants stared at Li Mingyuan, their eyes full of hatred and resentment. The look in his eyes was clearly to say: "You idiot prince, what did you do when you rebelled during the fucking peace period?!" I won't let you go! ”
Li Yunqing gave Zhao Bingyan a look, Zhao Bingyan willingly let Li Mingyuan go, Li Mingyuan coughed violently for a while, looked at Li Yunqing coldly and said, "Your Majesty, things have reached such a point that how do you want me to die?" He looked at the sky, and without waiting for Li Yunqing to reply, he continued: "No matter how you plan to let me die, I just ask you to leave me a whole corpse." Although I, Li Mingyuan, am a chaotic minister and thief, I am also the prince of Daqian, the descendant of the Li family! ”
When Li Yunqing heard this, he turned his horse's head and left, but the voice reached the ears of Li Mingyuan and everyone: "I promise you to give you self-determination!" ”
Hearing this, Li Mingyuan pounced on the ground and kowtowed to Li Yunqing's distant back: "Li Mingyuan, thank the emperor for his grace!" After kowtowing, he stood up violently and shouted: "I always thought that you would not be a good emperor, the Li family is thin, and after Taizong died, I felt that only I was worthy of being this emperor!" But I was wrong, you would be a good emperor. You remember! If you want to take care of this splendid mountain and river, I will go down to ask Taizu and my father for their guilt!! ”
After Li Mingyuan finished speaking, he picked up a knife on the ground and wiped his neck cleanly, not dragging mud and water at all, but with a bit of heroism. Li Yunqing stopped the war horse under him at this moment and looked up at the sky.
The air was filled with the smell of blood, and Li Yunqing's words were also a little sad: "The throne, everyone in the world wants to sit on it, only the person sitting on it knows what the throne means!" ”
Zhao Bingyan jumped from his horse to Li Yunqing's horse, Li Yunqing, who was facing the horse's head with his back, sat down, and took out Bai Aya to help Li Yunqing bandage the wound on his left arm. The two were so close to each other that they could feel each other's breath. Zhao Bingyan didn't care about this, but just helped Li Yunqing bandage his wounds.
After everything was done, he turned his body to face forward, and the whole person leaned on Li Yunqing's arms, and only then did he speak: "There have been more than ten dynasties in this land for thousands of years, and there is nothing unusual about things like today. Who doesn't want to be the supreme in the world? The position below you is the most tempting thing in the world, so be careful! ”
When Li Yunqing heard this, he lowered his head and kissed Zhao Bingyan's cheek and said, "This is easy to do, you will stay by my side in the future, in this case, it will not be so easy for anyone to assassinate me." ”
Zhao Bingyan was silent for a while when he heard this, and said: "I'm afraid my temperament is not suitable to be your concubine, since you have me in your heart, then I will be your personal palace maid for the rest of your life." ”
When Li Yunqing heard this, he pulled the reins and stopped the war horse under his crotch and said, "What kind of crazy thing are you talking about?" How could I possibly make you a palace maid? You have become a palace maid, who will be my queen? ”
"Queen?!" Zhao Bingyan's body shook when he heard this: "You mean that you want me to be your queen, I think you are crazy!" Not to mention that I want to assassinate you, just saying that it is impossible for me to be a concubine as an orphan of the previous dynasty, how can I be a queen! You don't still want our children to be the crown prince and the fourth emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, do you? ”
Li Yunqing ignored Zhao Bingyan's surprised look, nodded and said, "What you said is right, that's what I think." The things of the old sesame seeds and rotten millet in the previous dynasty have long been buried deep in the loess, where are there so many things? Also, what did you just say? Imperial concubine? Taizu and Taizong only have queens, where are there any concubines. If there is a concubine, maybe this throne will not be my turn. ”
"How so? The emperors of all dynasties are surrounded by many concubines, although the three thousand beauties of the harem are a bit exaggerated, but there are always dozens of concubines, even if there are no dozens of concubines, there are always more than ten. Even if the emperor is not a woman, there are always three, four, five or six concubines around him, right? How did you become monogamous in the Great Qian Dynasty? ”
Li Yunqing shook his head and said, "Emperor Taizu and the empress, who are also my mother, have a deep affection, so naturally they do not allow others to interfere. As for Emperor Taizong's empress, my sister-in-law was personally chosen by my father, who is very virtuous and virtuous, and my imperial brother can be said to be a confidant. ”
Zhao Bingyan thought it was interesting when he heard this, so he jokingly asked: "Your father is the founding king, and your brother has no intention of consolidating the dynasty to make any three palaces and six courts, which is still in the past, but you, the little emperor, don't have to think about so many things, and now the world is still peaceful, you can rest assured that you can open up branches and leaves for the royal family." ”
"What are you going to do with a bunch of women?! Since ancient times, many of the chaotic intrigues in the harem have become the fundamental reason for the end of a dynasty. What's more, listening to a group of women chirping all day long annoys a person!! ”
Li Yunqing's voice in the last sentence has increased a lot, and he has even become a little angry. Zhao Bingyan obediently closed his mouth, and the two rode into Hu Yuecheng slowly, seeing that Li Yunqing was no longer talking, Zhao Bingyan frowned slightly and said coquettishly: "For no reason, what kind of evil fire is this?!" ”
Li Yunqing ignored Zhao Bingyan, and when he arrived at the yamen of Hu Yue's mansion, he dismounted and walked straight inside, Hu Yue's prefect had already taken his residence as the emperor's residence, and the whole family lived in the inn. This is not a grievance, and it is a great honor for anyone to live in a place where the emperor can live.
Li Yunqing went to his room to change clothes when he entered the back office, Zhao Bingyan was also a little angry when he saw his deathless appearance, and he also went to bathe and change clothes in the service of the girls, and she needed to wash up more as a woman.
When Zhao Bingyan appeared in Li Yunqing's room, Li Yunqing had already changed into an azure robe, and her long hair was floating on the back of her head so casually. At this moment he was leaning against the head of the bed, looking at the pendant on the curtain and distracted, and he did not look back when he heard the movement of the door.
Zhao Bingyan has changed back into her snow-like long skirt, which is different from before with a streamer wrapped around the crook of her arm, which looks a little more fairy. Seeing that Li Yunqing glanced at himself lightly, he stopped paying attention to himself, sighed, sat on the edge of the bed, and quietly looked at the man in front of him. At this moment, his brow furrowed slightly, and his lips were tightly pursed. Zhao Bingyan felt that Li Yunqing was a child at the moment, and he was not yet fifteen years old.
The two of you, you look at me, I look at you, Li Yunqing didn't plan to speak at all, Zhao Bingyan knew that this man was angry, so he asked softly, "What's wrong?" Wasn't it okay just now? Why are you unhappy? ”
Looking at Zhao Bingyan's dazed appearance, Li Yunqing became even more angry, and said coldly: "You said that you put me in your heart, you said that you left your heart on my body, I don't think it's sincere!" ”
Zhao Bingyan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his brows couldn't help frowning: "Do you think I'm the kind of person who jokes about life's events?" You don't believe me?! Zhao Bingyan was also a little aggrieved and a little puzzled.
Li Yunqing pursed his lips and said, "Aren't you still teaching me what to say about the seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards?" If you care about me even the slightest, you will let me go to the woman next to me, and let the woman next to me be my queen?! ”
