Chapter 136: Mother's Melon?
"The first person I knew was Jiang Luo, who was your mother." Zuo Wenjun gave him a very positive answer.
"However, at that time, there was no you, she was not married, and she was not the crown princess." She added.
Li Huai was stupid, Zuo Wenjun's old friend turned out to be his mother!
They turned out to be an era.
"Are you familiar with my mother?" Li Huai asked hopefully.
Zuo Wenjun shook his head and said, "At first, I was a little familiar, but then I was not familiar, and after she fell in love with someone, she would write me a letter for a long time." β
This is as if she was scum by Jiang Luo.
"The person she loves is my father, that is, the prince." Li Huai said with a smile, in fact, there is no need to ask, the answer is obvious.
Who else but the crown prince.
Zuo Wenjun shook his head, "It's not the prince." β
"What?"
Li Huai exclaimed in surprise.
Do you want to eat my mother's melon, it's not good.
"It's you."
Zuo Wenjun continued: "After she has you, it seems to be separated from the world, she uses all her thoughts on you, and she doesn't care about everything in the outside world, so I went to Luoyang to see her once, and I didn't go to her again." β
Li Huai breathed a sigh of relief, it's best if there is no melon, he doesn't want to eat this kind of melon, don't involve other stories.
"Jiang Luo doesn't like the prince." Zuo Wenjun continued.
Li Huai frowned, "Why do you say that, my father and my mother are a model couple, they obviously love each other so much." β
"That's an outsider's opinion, and the two of them are emotionally speaking, and you are also an outsider, so it's not surprising that you think so." Zuo Wenjun said lightly.
"Then how do you judge, my mother doesn't like my father?" Li Huai had to ask clearly.
"The reason why Jiang Luo married the crown prince was completely to give birth to you, and after giving birth to you, the prince had no way to give birth to children." Zuo Wenjun explained.
Li Huai didn't understand it even more, "What do you mean by that?" My mother married my father in order to give birth to me, so wouldn't I ...... Didn't my dad give birth to it? After giving birth to me, my dad couldn't have children, what does that mean? β
The melon seems to have eaten on his head.
Zuo Wenjun shook his head and said, "You are indeed born to the prince and Jiang Luo, and your grandfather has also verified it." In order to give birth to you, the prince overdrew everything, which made your grandfather very angry, and I guess this is one of the reasons why your grandfather doesn't like you. β
Li Huai still didn't understand, and asked, "How can you say that my mother doesn't like my father?" β
"Jiang Luo just wants you, for the sake of you, whoever is the prince, she will marry whomever she wants, it just so happens that the prince has a deep affection for Jiang Luo." Zuo Wenjun explained.
"She also said that it would be best to marry the emperor, but Li Gan is too old to look down on her." Zuo Wenjun added.
ββ¦β¦β
Li Huai was stupid, this melon really hit his head, he asked: "Then what is my mother's purpose in doing this?" Why did you give birth to me? Is my innate divine power related to this? β
"Jiang Luo has some decisions, even I can't understand them, you can't get an answer from me." Zuo Wenjun: This is going to kill the topic.
"At least tell me everything you know." Li Huai said hopefully.
Zuo Wenjun shook his head, "I know that there are too many things, and your state of mind is not mature enough, so I can't tell you now." β
"Don't you know that half of the words are the most annoying?" Li Huai said slightly annoyed.
"You'll forget anyway." Zuo Wenjun said lightly, that gaze seemed to see him through.
Li Huai was stunned, she may be right, no matter what story there is between his father and his mother, it has passed.
He is curious now, and will forget tomorrow.
Live your life as always.
Even if he knew what was the use, would he have the power to change anything?
As for those secrets about himself, even Zuo Wenjun doesn't know very well, and he needs to unravel them himself.
Sou!
Zuo Wenjun suddenly disappeared.
Then, Yue Qianqian ran up.
"King Liang, someone is looking for you outside." Yue Qianqian said respectfully, her attitude made Li Huai not very accustomed to it.
I still like her unruly appearance.
"I see."
Li Huai thought that Geng Peng had returned, but when he went down the mountain, he saw that it was a group of cavalry that he had never seen.
Their horses did not have stirrups, but they had saddles and wore clothes woven from animal skins and tree bark.
On the feet are straw sandals.
They were all dark-skinned, and they had a curved scimitar pinned to their waists, the handle of which seemed to be made of animal horns.
This is...... Horde of savages?
"King Liang!"
Ge Liang squeezed out of the crowd, came to Li Huai, and arched his hand: "The minister greets the prince!" β
Li Huai was a little surprised and asked, "How do you know I'm here?" β
"The minister heard that there was a strange person in the north, and the herring fish gang went out collectively a few days ago, so the minister guessed that the prince was coming, so he came to greet him." Ge Liang explained.
After he sent the letter, he had been paying attention to the news in the Northland, and when he learned that Li Huai was coming alone, he also had a conflict with the Northland Gang Sect, and almost scared his soul away.
Hurriedly brought someone here.
βηη·οΌθΏζ―ε€ηΌι¨θ½ηε士οΌδ»δ»¬δΈ»ε¨ζ₯θ§θ§εηγβ Ge Liang pointed to the ones behind him.
Night Wolf is the name given by their tribe itself, but the Central Plains used to call them savages.
The tribe had a population of nearly 300,000 people, and they had no army, but everyone could fight on horseback.
Any man over the age of twelve can be called a warrior, and being called a warrior is the pride of every man in this tribe.
"See the Cool King!"
Collectively, they clenched their right hands into fists, pounded them on their left chests, and bowed.
Li Huai was still thinking about how to communicate with them, but he didn't expect that they also spoke the Central Plains language, which was much more convenient.
"Warriors have come from afar, and this king welcomes you."
Li Huai also returned the favor.
They all laughed, leaking two neat rows of white teeth, and their laughter was sunny, natural, and full of friendship.
It's obviously an unknown acquaintance, and they can have this kind of smile just after meeting for the first time, which is impossible in the Central Plains.
"Qianqian, get me some meat and wine, and prepare some Central Plains dishes, I want to entertain the warriors of the Night Wolf." Li Huai instructed Yue Qianqian.
"Yes."
Yue Qianqian went to do it immediately.
The banquet was not held indoors, but in the back mountain of the Thousand Moon Sect, in a clearing, a bonfire was lit, spirits were drunk, and people talked freely.
Li Huai didn't talk to them about the integration of the two races, and completely avoided politics and military affairs, just to be happy.
They are also genuinely happy.
After drinking I don't know how many rounds of wine, the people of the Night Wolf Clan were almost drunk.
"Lord Wang, when do you plan to go to the south?" Ge Liang made a special trip to find Li Huai, in addition to being afraid that he would be in danger, and by the way, he also came to greet him.
The matter of the integration of the two ethnic groups can no longer be delayed, and if it is delayed for one more day, there will be one more variable.
"What's going on?" Li Huai asked.
"In addition to us, I heard that the Western Regions also sent people, and they are also fighting for the Night Wolf Tribe." Ge Liang whispered.
The territory of the Night Wolf tribe is very small, just a small area in the south and west of the Northlands, and it is not a strategic place.
It's just that for Yu Guo, especially for Liangzhou, not taking this tribe away is like a needle on the side of the pillow.
It's uncomfortable all the time.
"The Western Regions are also here to join in the fun? The Night Wolf Tribe shouldn't be that important to them. Li Huai was surprised.
Moreover, since the founding of the Yu State, it has always been friendly with the Western Regions, and the two countries have also intermarried and traded with each other.
At that time, a princess was married to the Western Regions.
Over the years, the Western Regions have paid tribute to Yu every year with grapes, melons and fruits, as well as agate and rare beasts.
Pay somebody back in the same coin.
Yu would also send some silk, porcelain, tea, rice, and so on to the Western Regions.
"The minister also thinks it's strange, the Western Regions does this, except for disgusting us, they can't get much benefit." Ge Liang didn't understand what the Western Regions were thinking.
Li Huai slapped his thigh directly, "Lao Tzu doesn't care what the Western Regions want to do, the Night Wolf Clan is my people, and the habitat of the Night Wolf Clan is my territory, not an inch can be lost, and no one can be left behind." β
He and Ge Liang both understood that the trouble was not that the Western Regions came to rob the Night Wolf Tribe, and they were afraid that Yu Guo would make friends with the Western Regions.
Li Huai's attitude was put out, even if he sacrificed this friend in the Western Regions, he couldn't give up the Night Wolf Clan!
"At present, the Night Wolf Clan is more inclined to us, as long as King Liang can go to the Night Wolf Clan in person and talk to them, they will definitely be able to agree and merge into our Liangzhou."
Ge Liang saw the opportunity, and wanted to take Li Huai to the south of the Northland, eager to leave early tomorrow morning.
Li Huai hesitated for a moment.
"I can't go to the Night Wolf Clan with you now, if I can't even govern the people of the Northland, how can I govern the Night Wolf Clan, why should they believe in me, the useless King of Liang?"
Ge Liang was anxious when he heard this, and arched his hand: "This mess in the north, how can it be managed for a while, I hope the prince will focus on the overall situation!" β
"Governing the north is the overall situation of Liangzhou, this king has made up his mind, either you go back to the south tomorrow, or stay and help me."
Li Huai didn't give him a chance to bargain, and directly made up his mind that if he didn't govern the people of the Northland, he would resolutely not leave!
