Chapter 561: Sweaty BMW
Regarding the little prince's suggestion, Li Kui's first thought was anger, could he betray the Great Song Dynasty for a horse?
Li Kui looked up and down for a while with an unkind gaze, and the latter was uncomfortable by Li Kui's terrible eyes, and dodged and took a few steps back. Immediately, there was a shouting sound outside the courtyard, as well as the movement of the blade, but then the powerful fist to the flesh muffled snort, which made Yelu Baoji even more frightened, he seemed to have entered a thief's den.
Yelu Baoji smiled flatteringly, looking like he was stammering Li Kui.
If Li Bingqian was in front of him, he would definitely warn this little Khitan prince who was not deeply involved in the world, and it was useless to deal with Li Kui.
Sure enough, Li Kui raised his huge head, his eyes floated to the top of his head, and said leisurely: "You have found the wrong person, I am a loyal minister of the Great Song Dynasty." ”
"Brother Li is righteous and thin, so he is naturally a loyal minister."
As soon as these words came out, it stands to reason that Yelu Baoji would definitely smile disdainfully, but what made Li Kui feel strange was that this person not only did not mock, but also did not refute.
Is this still a Khitan envoy from Bianliang, Tokyo?
He Li Kui's reputation in Bianliang, Tokyo is not very good, especially in the officialdom, and even he heard rumors that Zhang Shangying actually gave him the nickname of 'Wild Boar King' behind his back, but unfortunately Li Kui was no longer in the capital at that time, otherwise he would have to pay the price for his mouth.
Of course, Li Kui's reputation is not good, and it is not bad in everyone's ears.
Relatives, fortunate ministers, are very disrespectful to the Queen Mother and her old man. Speaking of which, Li Kui is still very cute in the eyes of the people, after all, the gangsters on the streets of Tokyo are afraid of the people of the old Li family. Li Kui won't talk about it, this guy is all bad people who lack morality and smoke. Even Li Lin, Li Qing, and Ruan Xiaoer are not fuel-efficient lamps, and the gangsters in Tokyo City, who are bullying, dare not pass near the Baokang Gate. In the eyes of the people, Li Kui is undoubtedly a down-to-earth civil official with a great sense of justice.
It's just that Yelu Baoji is the little prince after all, so he can't mix in with the people, right? His evaluation of Li Kui can only be heard from the upper class of Bianliang, and the evaluation of Li Kui in the mouths of civil officials and magnates is not very high.
This made Li Kui scratch his head, he had estimated that Yelu Baoji came to him to steal waste paper, most likely to steal his draft chapter, and even used words to analyze the details of the negotiations between the Great Song mission and the Western Xia, so that the Khitan mission could be prepared. But this guy, why don't you play according to the routine?
Li Kui touched the leg of the chair and felt that Yelu Baoji's words were not true.
In his opinion, the reason for not speaking truthfully must be that the punishment is not enough, or more appropriately, the beating is not severe enough.
Unexpectedly, Yelu Baoji came up to Li Kui and gave Li Kui a thumbs up and said: "Brother Li, the younger brother accidentally found that Brother Li's poems were filled in very cleverly. The younger brother is very convinced, and he can't wait to talk with Brother Li at night, but now it is before the negotiations between the Great Liao, the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, you and I are both envoys, each with its own master. Rushing back and forth is afraid of provoking criticism. ”
"So you sneaked into my study and stole the waste paper I used to practice calligraphy?"
Li Kui is a person who does not believe in evil, and when he saw Yelu Baoji, he felt that he had hit an evil spirit. What kind of family can raise such unreliable children as Yelu Baoji?
There is only one answer - the palace.
Yelu Baoji's father is naturally the prince, there is no doubt about it. But you are a Liao person, like ...... Alas, wait, Li Kui stretched out his hand to stop Yelu Baoji's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Little prince, a certain coarse person doesn't know how to write and play. ”
Being able to reject nature is the best way to do it.
Li Kui was a civil servant of the Great Song Dynasty, how could he interact with the magnates of the Liao State?
If this is transmitted back to the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, it will become a stain that Li Kui will not be able to wash away in his life.
But Yelu Baoji didn't mean to be disliked at all, and said to Li Kui: "Master Li, Xiao Li Tanhua, don't lie to Xiao Wang." You are the third jinshi in the temple examination. At the age of fourteen, he chanted a poem in five steps in front of Prime Minister Zhang Dun, how could you not know poetry? Although Xiao Wang does not have the talent and attainments in poetry, your poetry Xiao Wang is also very admired, and he also invited Lord An to appreciate it. Even An Da Dadou praised it, saying that it was a rare good word this year. ”
"What have I written?"
Li Kui was shocked, he just practiced calligraphy. As a matter of habit, after the end of the practice, I will write one or two works, which are usually poems. But let him remember what poems he wrote, and he will be blinded himself. After all, there are too many, and he often just excerpts a few sentences.
"Look at this sentence: When you are drunk, you look at the sword with the lamp, and you dream of blowing the horn and the battalion. Eight hundred miles of fire, fifty strings turned over the outside sound, and the battlefield was an autumn soldier. ”
There is also this sentence: Back then, thousands of miles were looking for the marquis, and the horses were in Liangzhou. Where is Guan He's dream? ”
"Stacked mountains gallop westward, thousands of horses whirl, and the mountains want to the east. is frightened down, jumping beads splashing; The small bridge is cross-cut, and the bow of the moon is missing. ”
……
Li Kui's eyes are a little straight, but fortunately, they are all half-que, and he can still use occasional prevarication to the outside world. If it is really written, it is estimated that the coffin board of the ancestor will not be able to cover it. By the way, now Su Shi is not dead, he is alive and well, I heard that he is going to be a father. This is not the point, the point is that Su Shi is known as the first literati in the ages, and the most brilliant thing is his poetry.
But even Su Shi is stronger than Xin Qiji, stronger than Lu You, and stronger than Li Qingzhao...... But can he be stronger than the combination of these literary superstars?
Li Kui was very frightened, and if he went down this path, Li Kui might have robbed Su Shi of his name when Su Shi was alive. Then the old man died depressed...... But he was virtuous.
Seeing that Li Kui was stunned, Yelu Baoji showed a little disgust for these imposing poems. Instead, he pointed to a small sentence on the paper and said: "Jin Ge Iron Horse is naturally heroic, but Xiao Wang thinks that this sentence is the most affectionate and profound sentence written by Li Tanhua - 'Ni Dress Song, a few times of wind and moon.'" The most bitter Xunyang River head guest, painting the pavilion is ready to go. ’”
Li Kui was silent, this sentence is from the famous Xin Qiji, of course, the whole word is magnificent, echoing the style of Xin Qiji, a patriotic poet, with his intentions, feelings, and lofty ambitions, but the regret that his ambitions have not been rewarded.
But if you take out these two sentences separately, it will be weird.
It seems to be a color embryo, an experience in a good place like the Qinhuai River.
There was once a sister who regretted not cherishing it, but when he woke up, he found that it had passed and could never return to the previous love. This is on the shore of the water in the evening, looking at the red lanterns of the painting boat, and the stinky shamelessness of the old lover in the past. It doesn't sound like a serious sentence.
Of course, Xin Qiji is absolutely right, he wrote these to describe the prosperity of the Central Plains at the beginning, and compare it with Xiao Suo in the Southern Song Dynasty, with lofty intentions.
But Yelu Baoji, a nasty embryo, is obviously wrong.
If Li Kui had acquiesced out the whole word, there would naturally be no misunderstanding. But the problem is that he just wrote such a sentence, which is embarrassing, according to Li Kui's usual style, he glanced at the 'evidence' from Yelu Baoji, but said with a smile: "I didn't write it." ”
"Brother Li, how can you ...... How can such a masterpiece be buried? Yelu Baoji suddenly became anxious, and pulled Li Kui's coat for verification: "Look at this word, whether it is your handwriting; If you look at this lyrics, I've asked someone, but no one has written it at all, so it must be your masterpiece. Of course, there is a reason why you have concerns, the Great Song Dynasty is not good at this, you can't go to the workshop as a civil official, and even if you can, you can go secretly. ”
"But Brother Li, you don't want to make a name for this poem, Xiao Wang is willing! Sell it to me, and Xiao Wang will receive it at a high price. Xiao Wang took a fancy to a sister in the workshop, but there are no good words to see people, seeing Brother Li's talent, Xiao Wang suddenly became enlightened, as long as the brother is out, he will inevitably be caught. Even if it is exchanged for a BMW, Xiao Wang will never complain. ”
Li Kui looked at Yelu Baoji, who was full of sincerity, and he suddenly couldn't bear to hurt people, but the problem was that Li Kui didn't have a good impression of Mongolian horses.
It's not that there is prejudice against Mongolian horses, but that Mongolian horses are abundant in Liao, and Mongolian horses are generally much shorter than Hequ horses, but Li Kui is still a tall man, so he naturally has to ride a big horse. If he rode out on a Mongolian horse, it would be like riding a donkey to the market, which was a bit funny.
Li Kui pouted and said, "But the horses of the Liao Kingdom are too short." ”
"Prejudice, definitely prejudice." The little prince Yelu Baoji shouted for his horse and said: "Lord Li, the grassland horse is hard-working and resentful, and it is definitely a sharp weapon for cavalry. Of course, although Xiao Wang's fief is sparsely populated, he can't fool his friends with ordinary horses. Xiao Wang's BMW came from the subject country of Daliao, Black Khan. It's what you call a bloody BMW......"
Li Kui didn't know where the Black Han Kingdom was, but the territory of the Liao State was too big, and even many Liao officials couldn't say it clearly.
"Where?"
"It's raised in the house next door."
Yelu Baoji saw that Li Kui's heart was moved, and he immediately felt that there was a way to buy and sell. His horse can't be tamed by himself, and if he is tamed and makes himself a mount, there will still be problems. Horses are very strange animals, and they can only be obeyed after they have been tamed by their owners. Of course, the gelding will also have no desire to let others ride across. But Yelu Baoji is also a little prince, and he is still very focused on his ability to fight bravely in Khitan, can he prepare a gelding for himself?
The moment he saw BMW, Li Kui's eyes were almost straight.
The whole body is dark red, and the tall chest matches the slender body, not only has no sense of disobedience, but also has a vigorous visual feeling. The horse has a slender body, but does not lose the perfection of the muscles, giving people an elegant but explosive beauty. The coat color is even more satin-like, reflecting the light in the sun.
Seeing that Li Kui was tempted, Yelu Baoji reached out and touched the horse hair on the horse's neck, which is also the horse's greatest tolerance for him, if he does anything excessive, he should show his hooves.
Yelu took the opportunity to say, "Brother Li, what do you think of this horse?" This is the BMW that the Black Khanate paid tribute to me in Da Liao, and Xiao Wang only got this one. ”
"Okay, great." Li Kui turned his head and stared at Yelu Baoji seriously, grinning: "I have always responded to my friends' requests, doesn't Brother Yelu just want a poem?" Write, the younger brother will write it to you immediately, if one is not good, just two. If the younger brother can't write it, I will write to my ancestor and ask him to help you. ”
Yelu Baoji's happy snot bubbles were about to pop up, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Can Master Su help me?" ”
Li Kui was overjoyed before, but seeing Yelu Baoji's ecstatic appearance, how could he not understand that this guy looked down on his talent! wants Su Shi to help him take care of his sister, this is a sign of smashing his own house. He is a dignified scholar, can he still be blinded by a Khitan?
"Brother Li, I want a sentence of affection."
"No problem!"
"It would be nice to add a little lovesickness."
"I try."
"Xiao Wang still wants ......"
……
Li Kui said angrily: "If you still make a request, you have to add money, no, add Ma." ”
Just when Li Kui was performing for a bloody horse, the minister of Western Xia who came in a hurry arrived in Jingzhou. But in the face of Kangda, the grandpuncle of the new monarch of Western Xia, An Tao, the negotiating minister of the Great Song Mission, felt uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
The good temper of the famous Kangda is well-known in the Western Xia royal family, and he has the ability to spit on himself. Anyone can bully him, and he won't get angry.
But although this guy has some pockets, the problem is that he lives a long time, and he was stunned and sent away the four generations of kings of Western Xia. The moment he appeared in front of An Tao, An Tao was still afraid that he would lose his temper and be angry with the old man lying on him. But in just half a day, he found that he underestimated the other party, the old man was over eighty, deaf and clear-sighted, and he still had a wilting temper.
Any condition of An Tao, he can nod his head and say: "Lord An, the old man can't be the master, so he has to let someone report to my lord." Don't worry, there will be news in a day or two. ”
On this day, An Tao, who was angry in front of Wei Ming Kangda, walked into Li Kui's small courtyard, but saw Yelu Baoji looking sluggish as if he had been struck by lightning, but tears flowed down his face. His heart suddenly chuckled, and his heart said that Li Kui wouldn't be like this, right?
Looking at Li Kui, he is quite innocent.
The business of sweaty BMW is not easy to do! He took out a lot of famous poems, and let Yelu Baoji veto them. He wants the best, which makes Li Kui sad. Between men and women, especially the feeling of sour rot and sister, he can't grasp it accurately! He ended up with just a few words: no life experience.
In desperation, he could only move out of the great god Nalan Xingde. Then he wrote two sentences, and the little prince muttered vigorously after reading it: "This is me!" That's who I am! ”
'Melancholy clouds flying, Biluo knows? There are no acacia flowers, empty acacia trees. ’
Yelu Baoji thought of how many stormy nights, wandering lonely and lost.
The old man An Tao couldn't cover his angry hair, he was tired and tired of negotiating with the negotiators of Western Xia, and what about Li Kui? He remembered that when he left Beijing, he met the old man Su Song, the prime minister. Which one has a high evaluation said to An Tao: "Renjie is responsible and reliable!" ”
