Chapter 35: Shame and Shame (II)

After he said this, he knelt down with a bang, as if to show that his martial arts were indeed powerful, and the solid masonry ground suddenly cracked, revealing a hole the size of a fist.

Moreover, just kneeling, the ground shook, obviously the martial arts had reached an extremely powerful level, otherwise, it would not have caused such great destructive power.

Of course, when Zhang Qiu and Qiong knelt down, he knelt relatively religiously, and there was a sense of loyalty to him, although he didn't say it, but this action interpreted the four words of loyalty to perfection.

Li Longji nodded: "What you said is good, but why is that?" ”

"Your Majesty, Mr. Meng Haoran first wrote a poem of "Dongting Lake", one of which I remember very well, 'If you want to help without a boat, you will be ashamed of Shengming', and the minister is not for anything else, just for the sake of being ashamed of Shengming! Therefore, the minister dared to ask the emperor to take back his fate, and the minister was willing to be by the emperor's side, do his best, and repay the emperor's kindness! ”

When he said these words, he kowtowed, and he did look impassioned.

In Tang Dynasty's heart, he suddenly understood why people like Zhang Qiu and Qiong were able to climb to the high position of Hubu Shangshu in a short period of time, it turned out that this was how they expressed their loyalty, at this time, if they were the emperor, I am afraid they would have to forgive him as a courtier.

Sure enough, Li Longji's expression immediately softened, but he didn't mean to call him flat, but just asked interestingly: "This person named Meng Haoran who makes poems is very good, what kind of official position is he who makes such good poems?" ”

"Back to the emperor, he is a white body, and he has not advanced in his life." This sentence was answered by the Tang Dynasty around him.

"Oh, didn't Li Linfu say that there is no sage left behind, what is going on, this poem doesn't look at anything else, just look at these two sentences 'Desire to help without a boat, and live in shame and sage', it can be seen that this person's high cultural skills, isn't this the door to turn talented people out of my door?"

When he said this, he was already very powerful, and he had a feeling of being deceived.

Tang Chao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Meng Haoran is indeed a top poet, many of his poems have been circulated in the world, what "Spring Dawn" and "Sujian Dejiang" are all famous poems of his poetry!" ”

In fact, Tang Chao and Meng Haoran never knew each other, but after all, he studied the poetry of this great poet in Zhangzhou when he was very young, and he was grateful in his heart, and he couldn't help but say two good words for him.

Sure enough, after saying this, Li Longji immediately became interested: "I am very interested in the two poems that Zhang Qiu Shangshu just read, read them to me together?" ”

Zhang Qiu and Qiong's face was embarrassed, Tang Chao saw it in his eyes, smiled slightly, relieved him of the siege, and read "Lindong Lake Presents Zhang Chenxiang" and said: "The level of August Lake is too clear. Vapor cloud Mengze, Bohan Yueyang City. If you want to help something, you have no boat, and you are ashamed of it. Sitting and watching the anglers is nothing but envy of the fish! ”

Applaud! Unexpectedly, Li Longji actually applauded, obviously because of the elegant artistic conception in the poem, which moved him. The poems that can get the applause of the emperor are naturally elegant works, because he is a person who has studied poetry and poetry very deeply, and ordinary poetry is difficult to touch his heart.

"Good! I didn't expect this person named Meng Haoran to have Li Bai's talent, it's really not simple, 'Vapor Cloud Mengze, Bohan Yueyang City', majestic, majestic, there are a lot of hills and ravines in the chest! ”

Zhang Qiu and Qiong cast a grateful look at Tang Chao, and said repeatedly: "Yes, it is indeed a great pity to let such a talented person live in the grassland!" ”

He is very happy in his heart now, this is a good time to strike at Li Linfu, how can a person like him who understands things not fall into the ground.

When Li Longji heard this, a look of pity appeared on his face: "Where is this person now, I want to see him!" ”

"Go back to the emperor. This person named Meng Haoran now lives in Lingnan and lives the life of a hermit, but now he is not young, and he is afraid that he will not be able to serve the emperor. ”

"How old is he?"

"As far as the minister knows, he is now in the age of antiquity, if he is summoned to the capital, I am afraid that he will not be able to adapt to the water and soil, and it will hinder his health."

The Tang Dynasty was very strange, why didn't Zhang Qiu and Qiong summon this person to the capital, wasn't that a big blow to Li Linfu, why did he stop it? Oh, I know, he was afraid that Li Linfu would trap this person first, anyway, the emperor would already be greatly dissatisfied with Li Linfu, and he didn't want to remove Li Linfu from power because of this little thing.

A very smart person, until the last resort, will never blow the strongest blow, secretly framing others and making people not know, it is indeed a clever means.

Only at such a time did the Tang Dynasty feel that Zhang Qiu and Qiong were clever as officials, and these were all places for him to learn more.

"Hey, that's it, then you come down and ask the Zhang family to send someone to bring his poetry collection, and I want to take a good look at his poems. By the way, reward him with a thousand taels of gold! ”

In the Tang Dynasty, almost all readers had to make poems, Du Fu even wrote several bags of marijuana and collected them, people like Meng Haoran naturally cherished their manuscripts and had poems that they thought were good, which were compiled into collections and published, Li Longji thought that when he reached such an age, the collection should have come out, so he sent someone to copy it.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhang Qiu and Qiong happily agreed.

"Okay, you go down and do it!" Li Longji commanded.

Zhang Qiu and Qiong are even more excited, he knows that the emperor will not send himself to the remote Lingnan to be a festival envoy, although Lingnan can get a lot of gold and silver, and make a lot of money, but for people like him, money is easy to come by, but it doesn't have to be in Lingnan to get it, it is still a lot of money in the imperial court, but it can lay the foundation for future promotion.

If you go to Lingnan, there is no difference between it and being demoted, after all, the dignified household department is a grade higher than a festival envoy.

Seeing Zhang Qiu and Qiong's back disappear at the door, Li Longji smiled at Tang Chao beside him and said, "Tang Aiqing, do you know why I didn't kill him?" ”

"Because he is indeed a loyal servant!" Tang Dynasty said bluntly.

"Yes, I have always believed in my eyes, and I will never be wrong about a person, not only Zhang Qiu Shangshu, but also you, I will never be wrong."

This shocked Tang Chao's heart, and he suddenly had an idea: "What does the emperor think of me?" ”

Li Longji said: "You are a bit like Cao Cao!" ”

He said softly, with a joking tone, which made Tang Chao's legs immediately numb, and he knelt down and said: "The minister is loyal to the emperor, and it is definitely not Cao Cao!" ”

Li Longji smiled: "Flat, I'm just joking." ”

But even so, Tang Chao's heart has already jumped a few times, Mom, you don't have a joke, you say it is a joke now, then I have to believe it, but when I stood up, my legs trembled a little.

"Tang Dynasty, do you know, I don't like to marry this girl Xinling to you in my heart, why do you want to go against my will, do you think that these hands of mine can't kill people like you?" His eyes were as big as copper bells, and when he said or spoke, Tang Dynasty felt as if he saw a huge tiger pounced on him, and his instinctive momentum weakened: "Your Majesty, you can kill me!" But I will never promise you. ”

Although he took a symbolic step back, his tone did not loosen at all, and he said this eloquently, which immediately shocked Li Longji, the martial arts of the Tang Dynasty were simply getting more and more powerful.

It turned out that Li Longji used the technique of "tiger descending the mountain" just now, although his body did not move, but a momentum was moving, as if a huge white-fronted tiger with hanging eyes pounced towards the Tang Dynasty, people who were not strong in martial arts and concentration immediately fled in fright, and it was normal to even faint to death, but Tang Dynasty only flashed his legs slightly, and after taking a step back, he spoke very calmly, without a trace of fluctuation, as if his move had no effect in front of the Tang Dynasty.

And he also saw that Tang Chao took a step back slightly just now, not because he was afraid of this move, but a way to retreat as a way to advance, if he really did it just now, he could also reasonably distance himself, so as not to be in a passive position.

You must know that when two people with close martial arts fight, it is difficult for those who are at a disadvantage at the beginning to turn their momentum around, and most of the time they are chased and beaten by others until they are killed.

"Why?" Li Longji asked lightly, already knowing in his heart that the Tang Dynasty was determined to marry this girl Xinling.

"Your Majesty, you don't like me, the simplest reason is that I am afraid that I will be disloyal to you in the future, as Zhang Qiu Shangshu said just now, in the era of the emperor as a saint, if you don't make some achievements, it is a big sorry for yourself, and sorry for the emperor, I know, because of the reason that he was the deputy marshal of the soldiers and horses of the Nannan Zhao world, the emperor still has a little suspicion of the minister, but just like Zhang Qiu Shangshu, I am loyal to the emperor, my current martial arts are not much different from Zhang Qiu Shangshu, If I really harm the emperor's intentions, I spend a lot of time with the emperor, and there are a lot of opportunities, but the emperor Mingjian, I have no such meaning, the emperor, think about it, I will become your concubine in the future, even if I give up the throne of Nanzhao to me, I don't care about it, really, the emperor, what I said before is right, I don't say that I am a concubine in the Tang Dynasty, but I am a Huangmen squire, and I am ten times stronger than the emperor of Nanzhao, how can I rebel against you? Your Majesty, please give me this opportunity, really, shameful and sage, Your Majesty, don't let me only be a person who envy fish, and ask me to cast my net to fish, okay? ”

When Li Longji heard this, he laughed: "Well, since you must be a colt, you have to undergo some tests, you go down first!" ”
