Chapter Seventy-Three: Ruan Qing

Li Yunqing nodded and said, "If the lord of Dongyue has something to say, let's do it." ”

Duan Mingli bowed his hand to Li Yunqing again, and said loudly: "The emperors of our great cadres have protected us vassal countries, and we are deeply blessed by the Shangguo Dynasty, so we should swear allegiance to the emperor!" But now some people ignore the prestige of our emperor and openly oppose the kingdom of Chaoshang, which really deserves to be killed! ”

When the lords of the country heard this, they all nodded yes, Li Yunqing's eyes flashed, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he asked suspiciously: "Oh? I don't know who is the lord of Dongyue? ”

"It's the Lord of the Sea Heart Country, Emperor Changping!" Duan Mingli said with a look of disdain: "The minister thinks that the lord of the sea heart country has not been a minister for a long time, and the emperor imagines that he is a subject of the country and the lord of the country is openly called the emperor." Taizu was merciful and did not pursue his crimes. Emperor Taizong once issued an edict to reprimand him, and Emperor Changping, the lord of Haixin State, violated the yin and disobeyed, and never dared to call himself the emperor to the outside world, but only called himself in the country! Taizong only allowed it! But Emperor Changping called himself me to the outside world, and the minister had a letter with him here! It is enough to prove that he has a heart of disobedience! Between the words, Duan Mingli took out a letter from his arms.

Without waiting for Li Yunqing to instruct Chen Zhong, he walked down the imperial court quickly and took the letter back. Li Yunqing squinted his eyes and glanced at the letter, the content of the letter was that Emperor Changping celebrated his birthday and invited the lord of Dongyue to go to the banquet! Li Yunqing didn't read the content of the letter carefully at all, because there was no need at all. He now felt that these vassal lords under the imperial court were more and more sensible, and he must have known that he was extremely dissatisfied with Haixinguo, so he deliberately pushed Haixinguo and Emperor Changping to the forefront. In vain, it is to find a reason for Li Yunqing to attack Haixinguo, although Li Yunqing already has a reason to attack Haixinguo, but the more such reasons, the better. I only heard Li Yunqing snort coldly: "Hmph! The Lord of the Sea Heart Country is simply arrogant, he dares to disobey his will, what else can't he do? At this point, Li Yunqing glanced at the people below, and his tone became a little cold: "You are all the lords of a country, your status is very noble, and you are all smart people, what to do and what not to do are all scheming!" Since the founding of the country, I have not forced you to be my country, everything is voluntary! ”

Li Yunqing stepped down from the dragon chair, exuding a powerful coercion on his body, and those lords below instantly felt as if a boulder had been pressed on their chests, and they couldn't breathe! One by one, they couldn't help lowering their heads, not daring to look directly into Li Yunqing's eyes! Li Yunqing sneered, and continued: "Although you are voluntary, since you have become a vassal of the Great Qian, you must abide by the rules of my Great Qian!" I am the emperor of Daqian, and as a courtier, if I disrespect the emperor, that is to bully the king! ”

Li Yunqing glanced at Chen Zhong, Chen Zhong hurriedly stepped forward, but heard Li Yunqing say lightly: "Spread the decree, the lord of Haixin Country has no children, so he came to Beijing to ask for his guilt!" ”

"The old slave obeys!"

The next moment, Li Yunqing's face was full of a warm smile, as if what happened just now had never happened at all. I only heard him say loudly: "Lords of the country, I have a banquet in the Lin De Palace, and I will not get drunk and return today!" ”

The lord of the thirteen subject countries finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly thanked him verbally: "Wait for the emperor to thank the emperor for his grace!" ”

Since the lords of Nanping and Dongyue were so attentive to currying favor with themselves, Li Yunqing naturally wanted to show his goodwill. The two were specially called by Li Yunqing to the imperial court, and sat on both sides, one left and one right. Li Yunqing looked at Ruan Siping, the lord of Nanping Kingdom, and said softly: "I heard that there are bandits in Nanping Kingdom, and it is a little unpeaceful, I wonder if Lord Ruan can come over?" ”

Ruan Siping was about to get up and report when he heard this, but Li Yunqing pressed his hand, Ruan Siping hurriedly sat down obediently and reported: "Your Excellency, Weichen came to Chaoyi this time to celebrate the New Year and wish the emperor a healthy dragon. These two are for the sake of bandits in the country. Although my Nanping country has few people, the bandits are too fierce, and I implore my emperor to send troops to help! ”

"Okay, I will let the Nanling guard Situ send troops to Nanping tomorrow, and I wish you to exterminate the bandits! In addition, I will ask Situ Mad to train a pro-army for you, who will be responsible for protecting you and your family! Li Yunqing agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Ruan Siping was very moved when he heard this, and hurriedly knelt down and said respectfully: "My emperor's grace, the minister is grateful!" ”

Li Yunqing frowned slightly when he saw this scene: "Love, I have already passed, you are the same prince, if it is not an important occasion, you can avoid kneeling, love must be disrespectful?" ”

Ruan Siping naturally knew that Li Yunqing was showing his love for himself, smiled and sat back in his seat, seeing that the emperor was in a good mood at the moment, Ruan Siping turned his eyes to Li Yunqing and said: "Holy Lord, Weichen has brought a beauty this time, who is very good at singing and dancing, can you ask her to help with the fun?" ”

Li Yunqing nodded with a smile when he heard this: "Since it is the beauty you brought from thousands of miles away, I naturally want to take a good look at it, pass it on!" In fact, he didn't rarely see any so-called beauties in his heart, but he knew that as the emperor, the response just now was the best!

The melodious dance music sounded, and I saw a woman in white wearing a cardigan and a hat floating into the hall. Her hat was covered with a white veil, and she couldn't see what she looked like. But his posture is extremely graceful, even if it is almost comparable to Zhao Bingyan, plus the long shirt is extremely close-fitting, similar to a strong suit, not wide, which further sets off his figure. The dance is like a white crane playing in the snow.

At the end of the dance and music, the woman bowed down, threw herself to the ground, and said respectfully in a fluent Da Qian: "The woman knocks to see the big Qianzi, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"Good dancing, reward!" Li Yunqing clapped his hands and said.

The dancer was about to retreat, but she heard a voice say, "This girl dances well, I wonder if you can see the girl's face!" ”

Zhao Bingyan, who was dressed in court clothes, entered the main hall, and the lords of all the subject countries naturally saw the queen of Daqian, and they knelt down and saluted: "The ministers see the queen's mother, the mother is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!" ”

Zhao Bingyan looked at Li Yunqing with a smile on his face, walked up to the imperial court, turned around and sat on the phoenix chair before he said softly: "Lords of the country, there are some things in this harem that have been delayed, but this palace is also very coincidental, and it just looks like the beautiful dance!" He turned around and looked at Li Yunqing, and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, the concubine wants to see Mei Rao's true face!" ”

Li Yunqing smiled bitterly: "In that case, then ask the girl to take off the hat, and I and the queen will look at your face!" ”

"Yes!" The dancer hurriedly took off her hat, but everyone present was stunned. But I saw that under the hat was a very beautiful face, the skin was like jade and snow, the eyes were bright and the teeth were bright, the lips were attractive, and the long hair was like a waterfall.

The smile on Zhao Bingyan's face became brighter and brighter, and he even said eagerly: "Your Majesty, she ......"

Li Yunqing knew what Zhao Bingyan had in mind, and hurriedly glared at her, Zhao Bingyan shrank his neck, and changed his words: "What's your name?" ”

The dancer raised her head, looked at Zhao Bingyan, involuntarily glanced at Li Yunqing, and said softly: "Woman Ruan is gentle." ”

At this time, Ruan Siping hurriedly got up and arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the queen's mother, this person is the daughter of the minister, because she admires the court, so he brought her to see her for a long time!" ”
