Chapter 18: Saving the talented son and the girl, raising the, soothing the fierce, and marrying the saint with a smile

Li Yunhan and Du Shaoling rushed to the front of King Hui's mansion and wanted to enter the door, but the doorman refused to let him in, saying that the little silver he gave last time did not fall into his hands.

Du Shaoling reluctantly took out a handful of copper coins from his body and stuffed them into the door.

Still unhappy, the doorman rolled his eyelids and said, "That's it?" ”

"Too little?" Li Yunhan touched his pocket as he spoke, and motioned for the two doormen to get closer.

When the door was tightened, Li Yunhan pressed the shoulders of the two of them and slammed them hard, and the two brains "snapped" together, making them scream in pain.

"That's enough?" Li Yunhan said that, and walked into King Hui's mansion with Shaoling swaggeringly.

Backyard.

Princess Li and Princess Pingyu walked for a while, and walked past the Qiong tree with a smile.

A few servants were busy spraying water and weeding the trees.

Li Wan stopped and said, "Sister-in-law, this fairy qiong blooms once every ten years, and this year it is the flowering period again, don't forget to enjoy the flowers then." ”

"yes, got it." Ping Yu responded casually.

Ping Yu turned his head sideways, looked at her, frowned slightly, and said, "Sister-in-law, you have lost weight again in the past few days." ”

"Really?" Li Wu smiled bitterly, "However, the spring night is short, and the night is too tormenting." ”

"But hurt by love?"

Li Wu smiled shyly.

"Who is he?"

"Puzhou Xiucai Wang Jie." Li Wu replied timidly.

"It turned out to be him," Ping Yu smiled indifferently, "This talent is famous in the capital, I have heard of it a long time ago." ”

Suddenly, a voice came from behind: "Although Wang Jie is good, it's a pity that the sky is in great trouble!" ”

Ping Yu and Li Wu were shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly looked back, but it was Li and Du. I saw Du Shaoling's expression solemn and said: "There is also his wonderful music of the piano, and I will never be able to listen to it with my own ears in the future." ”

Ping Yu saw Yun Han, and before he finished his salute, he pretended to ignore it and gently twisted his head to the side.

Li Wu scolded: "What are you two doing in the palace again? ”

"Of course there's something." The corners of Du Shaoling's mouth twitched, "Why is the county lord unhappy?" ”

"Stop talking nonsense, say, what the hell?"

Li Yunhan glanced at the doorman who caught up behind him and said, "Wang Jie's accident." ”

As soon as the words fell, the two doormen ran to the front, shouting to drive Li and Du away.

"Before the master could speak, the servant was in a hurry and ordered the eviction." Li Yunhan said coldly.

"But isn't it," Du Shaoling squinted at the corner of his eyes, "It's all because the two of us are shabby, and we don't even give face." ”

Li Wu's face turned red after hearing this, and she scolded the servant angrily: "Dog minion, don't get out of here!" ”

After the doorman left, Li Wu asked eagerly, "Wang Gongzi, what's wrong with him?" ”

Li Yunhan said that because the imperial court canceled the provincial test for no reason, Wang Jie went to the Ministry of Rites with everyone to protest, but was unexpectedly arrested by Jingzhao Mansion.

Li Wu was suddenly sad when she heard this, tears rolled in her eyes, and she choked up and couldn't speak.

"Sister-in-law, isn't it just a down-and-out talent, why be so sad!" Ping Yu was quite unimpressed.

Li Wu didn't say a word, just covered her cheeks and sobbed.

"Your Highness is wrong, the county lord is not for Wang Jie, but for the students of the world," Li Yunhan said, "Your Highness, just imagine, if there is no scientific examination, what way out will the scholars have in the future?" If this goes on for a long time, the imperial court will be useless! ”

"Flim Flam!" Ping Yu made a straight face, "Last time in Liuhua Town, you stole my cockfight, this account has not been settled, and today I broke into the palace to teach this princess a lesson!" ”

"Calm your anger!" Li Wu stopped crying and hurriedly persuaded, "Is it also good for him to come to report the news?" ”

Li Yunhan sank his face, stared at Ping Yu for a while, and said, "Senior Sister Xiaoying, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, I can't imagine that you are still such a temperament, and you don't know how to forgive at all!" ”

Li Wu was stunned for a moment and said, "Mr. knows the imperial aunt?" ”

"Don't be close," Ping Yu raised his head, "Princess Ben's nickname is known all over the city. ”

Although Ping Yu said this, the scene of the two of them learning art in Qingcheng Mountain more than ten years ago instantly appeared in his mind......

When the two played, they were affectionate, opening their hearts to each other and expressing their affection.

She remembered Master's advice again, and was a little overwhelmed for a while.

"Why don't you know." Li Yunhan smiled slightly, staring at Ping Yu, "Senior sister, what do you say?" ”

Ping Yu came back to his senses, pretended to be surprised, and said, "You are ......"

"In Xiaqingchengzi, Li Yunhan."

"Oh, it's you." Ping Yu pretended to recognize it, and squeezed out a smile, "It's been more than ten years, and you still remember me." ”

Senior sister smiled. Chic life, poetic walking. Li Yunhan eased down and said, "Three years ago, you sent someone to return the peach wood talisman, and I was still worried at that time; I can't imagine that we will get together today, but we are treated so coldly, how can it be embarrassing? ”

Ping Yu smiled: "You, you can't touch any nails, and you still talk about ambitions and poetic feelings." ”

"Senior sister, after so many years, you still complain about me?"

Although Ping Yu's face was calm when he heard this, his heart was like turning over the river and the sea.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's Master's intention to ask me to enter Beijing."

"Hmph, whatever you want." Ping Yu said and brushed his sleeves away.

"Okay, Mr. Li, there's nothing for you here, you can go." Li Wan persuaded.

Du Shaoling snorted and said, "Let's go, I ran into you hard-hearted people, even I was going to freeze into ice." Shaoling said, didn't wait for Li Yunhan to salute and leave, and pulled him out of King Hui's mansion with his head held high.

After sending Li and Du away, as soon as Li Yu returned to the dormitory, she begged Ping Yu to try to save Wang Jie from prison.

Ping Yu seemed to be in an irritable mood, looking out the window with cold eyes.

Li Wu stepped forward and caressed her, sobbing quietly, and said, "Auntie, I beg you." ”

Ping Yu calmed down, patted Li Wu, and said slowly: "You want me to save him, okay; So how do you repay me? ”

"The little girl doesn't know, please tell my aunt directly." Li Wu was stunned for a moment and said.

"Wang Gongzi is extremely talented, if you get him out of prison, can you accompany me to play music to have fun?"

After hearing this, Li Wu agreed.

Ping Yu immediately called Ning Xin and instructed her to send a message to Jingzhao Yin Xian Tong, saying that she admired Wang Jie's talent and ordered him to come to Huiwang's mansion to play immediately.

Ning Xinnuo said goodbye and took the order.

Chu Mohan rushed to the palace with Batu and Chu Qing, who pretended to be an entourage.

He walked on the steps of the palace with a big belly and staggered, and went straight to the outside of the Qinzheng Palace.

At this time, the crown prince, King Jing, King Sheng, Lin Fu, Yang Silang and a group of civil and military generals were lined up on both sides, waiting for the arrival of Emperor Xuan.

Seeing Chu Mohan's swagger, Asno couldn't help but get angry, and muttered: "Damn, I really have a pair of pig eyes, and I look at the sky!" ”

Yang Silang stepped forward to greet Chu Mohan, but Chu Mohan held his head high and ignored him.

Yang Silang suddenly felt very embarrassed, and stepped on Chu Qing's feet in a panic, and Chu Qing glared at him fiercely.

Chu Mohan strode in front of Lin Fu and saluted respectfully.

Lin Fu replied to him a few words, pointed to Yang Silang on the side, and said in a low voice: "General Chu, this is Lord Yang Silang in the Imperial History." ”

Chu Mohan didn't even blink his eyelids, and said, "What imperial history, how big an official?" ”

When Yang Silang heard this, his face turned red with anger.

"By the way, Lord Yang has recently been promoted to the envoy of the Jiannan Festival." Lynver said coldly.

"Is it"? Chu Mohan looked at Yang Silang, "Ho, I really didn't see it." Young man, do a good job, be careful that the burden is flattened. ”

Yang Silang forcibly suppressed his anger and asked him what he meant by this?

Chu Mohan was disdainful, snorted, turned around and sat down.

Asno stepped forward and shouted: "Lao An, what's wrong with you, why can't you bow down when you see the prince?" ”

Chu Mohan pretended to be earmuffs and said, "What did you say, I didn't hear clearly." ”

Yang Silang was anxious on the side, and said: "Chu Mohan, you are obviously disrespectful!" ”

"What are you shouting," Chu Mohan shook his head, "I don't have good eyes, so many people wearing official hats, I haven't seen it." ”

"Humph! It's really confusing! Yang Silang said angrily.

As he was talking, Emperor Xuan came over under the hugs of Chen Xingjia, Gao Jun and others, and asked what was the loud noise?

Yang Silang said that Chu Mohan saw the prince and did not bow down.

Emperor Xuan glared at Chu Mohan and said, "Why is this?" ”

Chu Mohan hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is a Hu person, he doesn't know the etiquette of the palace, and he doesn't know what the prince is. ”

Emperor Xuan smiled indifferently after hearing this, and said: "The crown prince is the prince of the country, and I will pass it on to him in a hundred years." ”

Chu Mohan immediately pretended to be frightened when he heard this, and said: "Your Majesty forgives your sins, the minister has lived in the border for a long time, I only know that there is Your Majesty, but I don't know that there is a prince, and the minister deserves death!" ”

Emperor Xuan laughed when he heard this, and said, "Chu Aiqing, please get up quickly, I don't blame you." ”

Chu Mohan hurriedly got up, went to worship the prince again, and repeatedly apologized for his guilt.

The prince didn't care, just smiled and helped him up.

Asno said hatefully on the side: "Damn, you really know how to act!" ”

The princes and courtiers followed Emperor Xuan into the Qinzheng Palace, and they were arranged on both sides of the main hall.

Emperor Xuan smiled at Chu Mohan and said, "Chu Aiqing came from afar, and she has worked hard all the way. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, after receiving the order, the minister did not dare to slack off in the slightest and rushed to see the driver in the starry night," Chu Mohan paused, "The minister brought two thin gifts by the way, and presented them to Your Majesty." ”

"Chu Aiqing is too careful," Emperor Xuan smiled, "I don't know what kind of gift it is?" ”

"Last month, the border pass captured the Turks and Khitan and surrendered 300 enemies, and they will be escorted to Beijing later, please send them to your majesty."

"The general has won the battle again, yes, this is the luck of the society." Emperor Xuan was overjoyed and asked, "What about another gift?" ”

"Your Majesty, this gift is extraordinary, and you will definitely like it when you see it."

"Oh?"

Chu Mohan pointed to Batu outside the hall and said, "It's him." ”

Everyone was puzzled for a while, and they all looked up, only to see a strong man standing outside the hall, with a round waist and broad shoulders and a height of nearly a foot, like a black iron tower standing.

"Your Majesty, this man is the righteous son of the minister, and his name is Batu; He has been in battle for a long time, known as the first wrestler in Youyun, wrestling, wrestling, tug-of-war, no one can beat," Chu Mohan grinned, "Your Majesty has been soaking with those harem girls and actors all day long, what is the strength?" Why don't you let Batu accompany you, wrestle and have fun, that's fun! ”

"Chu Aiqing, I didn't expect that you, a military general, would figure out your intentions and be as careful as a hair!" Emperor Xuan laughed, "Okay, Chuanba is near, I want to take a good look at this Youyun No. 1 Warrior." ”

Batu received the order and hurriedly entered the temple to pay respects, and said in a voice like a bell: "The ministers Batu see Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Xuan looked him up and down, and saw that he was burly, like a King Kong, so he smiled and pointed to the Ding furnace in front of the palace, and said, "Can you lift this thousand jin Ding furnace?" ”

Badunuo said and walked to the Ding furnace, he bent down, grasped the Ding Foot with one hand and the wall with the other, and lifted the Ding Furnace into the air with a loud roar.

When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but let out a cry of amazement.

Emperor Xuan exclaimed: "Okay, the general is really powerful." ”

Chu Mohan was very proud, and said, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry, the minister has a small request." ”

Emperor Xuan was stunned: "Oh? ”

"It's a trivial matter," Chu Mohan smiled, "Last year, Yizi went to Beijing with his ministers and fell in love with the Rongyi County Lord of King Hui's Mansion, if Your Majesty rewarded him with this girl, wouldn't it be even more beautiful!" ”

Emperor Xuan hesitated for a moment when he heard this.

Yang Silang shouted: "What is the first wrestler of Youyun? It's clearly grandstanding and bullying me, and there is no one in the Central Plains! After talking about it, it turns out that you want to use this to get the county lord to marry! ”

"Father and the emperor are slow," the prince played, "King Hui is old, and there is only one daughter left under his knees, and he regards it as a pearl in his palm; If you agree in a hurry, I am afraid that King Hui will not be happy. ”

Emperor Xuan glanced at Lin Fu and said, "Lin Qing, what do you say?" ”

"Your Majesty, General Chu's proposal for his righteous son is a good thing." Lynver replied.

"Your Majesty, no!" Yang Silang was a little angry, "Chu Mohan boasted about Haikou, saying that Badu was powerful and invincible in the world, and the minister thought it was not enough to believe it." Besides, King Hui is highly respected, and he is not here, so he must obtain his consent for such a major marriage. ”

Batu roared: "Hmph, which one is not convinced, dare to compete with me on the spot?" ”

There was silence in the hall for a while.

Yang Silang said angrily: "Bold, you dare to deceive me and no one in the court!" ”

Chu Mohan smiled contemptuously and said, "Lord Yang, it's not Chu who boasts, if you want to talk about wrestling, wrestling, and fighting, no one in Chang'an City has really won against him!" ”

"You, Hugh is a lie!"

Emperor Xuan sank his face and said, "The two Aiqing, as soon as they met, they quarreled endlessly, what kind of system!" ”

Lin Fu proposed that in order to verify Batu's skills, he might as well order him to set up a martial arts competition in front of Taiqingguan; If there is no one who can win within three days, it is not too late to give him the lord of the county.

Chu Mohan laughed after hearing this: "Hahaha, it's great to set up a martial arts competition." ”

"Okay, according to Lin Aiqing's wishes, I will order Taichangqing Jia Sheng to supervise the office," Emperor Xuan frowned, "Chu Aiqing, if no one wins Batu within three days, I will not only give him the county lord, but also accept him as the imperial guard, and make him the first force of the Tang Dynasty." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long." Chu Mohan bowed his hand, "The minister still has something to play." ”

Emperor Xuan was worried that he would mention Zuo Xiang, so he smiled and said, "Chu Aiqing, the banquet is about to start, let's talk about it another day." ”

Chu Mohan was stunned for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers came to say something with a stomach, and it was uncomfortable not to say it." ”

"Then let's talk about it."

Chu Mohan strengthened his courage and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for you to reward Weichen." ”

"I don't know what reward Aiqing wants?" Emperor Xuan stiffened his face.

"Your Majesty, the left prime minister is always empty, and it's a pity, so I just let the minister do it."

"You want to be a vice-chancellor?"

"That's, it's empty anyway."

"General Chu, what are you anxious about!" Yang Silang was a little anxious, "This matter is still being weighed and considered by the imperial court, and the candidate can only be decided after the court discussion." Besides, there are Turkic and Khitan invasions at the border gates, if there is no general to guard it, how can the saint be at ease. ”

Chu Mohan turned sideways and glared at him fiercely, then turned back to Emperor Xuan and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you say it too......

Emperor Xuan was silent with a dark face.

Seeing this, Lin Fu hurriedly persuaded: "General Chu, this matter is not urgent. ”

"Yes, Chu Aiqing, the border gate is indeed indispensable for a moment," Emperor Xuan squeezed out a smile, "Aiqing, don't worry, although you can't be a face, I won't treat you badly." In recognition of your meritorious service in guarding the border, I will also crown you as the envoy of the state festival, are you satisfied? ”

Chu Mohan was immediately deflated when he heard this, and muttered: "This, with a knot, isn't it still a knot." ”

"Are you too young?" Emperor Xuan sank his face.

"I don't know what to do!" Yang Silang muttered to himself on the side.

Chu Mohan was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to respond.

Lin Fu was busy playing a round on the side, and said: "General Chu, the Holy Lord has a good intention, don't kneel down and thank the Holy Grace!" ”

Chu Mohan eased his nerves, knelt down reluctantly, and thanked the emperor.

Finally, after the court meeting, Emperor Xuan felt a faint swelling pain in his head, and his body was very tired, so he decided to move to Zichen Palace to rest.

Emperor Xuan lay on his back on the dragon couch and closed his eyes to recuperate, rested for a long time, and gradually recovered his spirit. He simply ate the meal, and was about to tell the eunuch to get up and drive to see Concubine Yi, when suddenly a small yellow door came to report, saying that Princess Pingyu asked to see him.

Emperor Xuan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, so he agreed to meet her.

After Ping Yu entered the palace, he visited Emperor Xuan.

Emperor Xuan asked her, what is the matter?

Ping Yu looked indifferent and said, "For the sake of the royal brother's family affairs." ”

"Family ......"

"Well," Ping Yu's face was calm, "Last month, the banquet in the Huiwang Mansion coincided with the presence of the prince and his young son, and the little sister saw that his face was haggard and in a trance, and asked the rear to know the reason, it turned out that it was because of Xiao Liangyuan's monkhood." ”

When Emperor Xuan heard this, he suddenly became angry, "hummed", and said: "This is all Heng'er's immorality, he still has the face to say!" ”

"Brother Huang misunderstood, the little sister is not here to intercede for Heng'er, but for the little emperor and grandson."

"You mean Amaranth ......" Emperor Xuan was a little puzzled.

"Yes. Amaranth is only six or seven years old, and he has no mother's love at a young age, and I don't know what he will become in the future? Alas, the little sister has lost her mother since she was a child, and she is deeply touched by this. ”

"Little sister, don't say it," Emperor Xuan was a little sad, but his tone was still tough, "Heng'er has caused himself to blame others." ”

"Oh?"

"As the crown prince, he has been repeatedly involved in cases, if it weren't for the fact that he is still benevolent and filial on weekdays, I would have abolished him a long time ago!"

"The little sister hasn't asked about political affairs for many years," Ping Yu sighed lightly, "Heng'er has been, and he deserves to be punished, but he pities the little emperor's grandson......"

Ping Yu saw that Emperor Xuan was silent, so he saluted and retired.

"Wait," Emperor Xuan stepped forward, "Heng'er, it's not a bad thing to go through more wind and rain; Little sister rest assured, the royal brother will not be too difficult for him. ”

Ping Yu suddenly felt at ease when he heard this, smiled slightly, and said, "Okay." ”

With the help of Princess Pingyu, Wang Jie was soon released from prison and returned to King Hui's mansion.

Seeing Wang Jie's haggard face, Li Wu couldn't help but feel pity in her heart, and couldn't help but shed tears.

Wang Jie gently wiped away her tears and said, "This time, thanks to the county lord's rescue, this grace will never be forgotten." ”

"It's time again, you can call me sister-in-law in the future," Li Wu smiled, "This time, thanks to the emperor's aunt's action, you have to thank her." ”

"Princess Pingyu?" Wang was stunned.

"Yes. I promised her that in the future, I would let my son accompany her more and play the piano and practice music, which can be regarded as repaying her kindness. ”

"For small things, I would like to listen to the orders of the county lord." Wang Jie replied briskly.

Li Wu took a sachet from the cabinet shelf, handed it over gently, and said, "This bag is sewn by my own hands, if the son does not dislike it, please accept it." ”

After Wang Jie, he took it and looked through it carefully, and embroidered two mandarin ducks playing in the water with gold and silver threads, and the word Li Wu was embroidered on one side.

Wang Jie happily accepted the sachet. He was touched by Li Wu's love, and couldn't help but stick to her, and the two expressed their heartfelt love to each other......

It didn't take long for Emperor Xuan to quickly reach the ears of King Hui when the news that Emperor Xuan wanted to give Li Wu to Batu arrived.

King Hui was shocked and angry when he heard this. He really didn't want his daughter to marry that vulgar man, but after thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't think of a good way, so he sent someone to find his daughter to discuss.

When Li Wu heard what her father said, it was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, and she was stunned and speechless for a while......
