Chapter 85 Your Majesty, do you want to become immortal?
Of course, Wang Yue's performance did not impress Emperor Maode.
But another thing can.
"Let's spare you!"
Emperor Maode said with satisfaction as he looked at a small box that Wang Yue presented to apologize.
There is still a gem inside.
The poor girl Xiao Puxian didn't know that she had taken out the jewelry accumulated by the Liao royal family and let this bastard manage the whole country in Kaifeng to maintain her semi-separation, but he used it to pick up girls and also to pick up the princess, and this princess should have been married...
She is already sixteen years old!
How could I not get married? But I still haven't gotten married yet when I dress up.
"Go back and think out the second half of the verse and send it to me. I'll say it if I'm satisfied with it, otherwise I'll still not let you go."
Princess Maode said.
After saying that, she left with a smile.
Eunuch Liu wiped his cold sweat from behind...
"Wang Jianyu, don't scare me anymore. This is the big inside and the outside. This Emperor Maode is the most beloved daughter of the official family, and he also promised Cai Xiang's son."
He said.
“Wouldn’t that be better?”
Wang Yue muttered to himself with a deep face.
Princess Maode turned around and looked at him with a smile on his face.
Eunuch Liu didn't think much about it. He thought Wang Yue meant to join the Cai family by the way. Emperor Maode had already chosen Cai Jing's fifth son Cai Yan as his son-in-law, but he had not passed the family, but it didn't take long. It was no big deal to think about the princess. The son-in-law of the Song Dynasty was not a very popular identity. In fact, as long as he became the son-in-law, he would basically bid farewell to the real power. But thinking about Cai Jing's daughter-in-law who had not passed the family, Cai You's sister-in-law who had not passed the family was purely a suicide.
Wang Defense shouldn't be so crazy.
Well, he didn't know Wang Wei's defense was just like this.
It’s hard for the king to defend!
These days, women are married at fifteen or sixteen years old, and the extreme is like Xiao Tabuyan said. They get married at the age of eleven or two, but looking at those unmarried fucking girls, Wang Fangyu really can't do it! In fact, even he can't do it at fifteen or sixteen, which is completely inconsistent with the aesthetics. For example, he has only kept his mouth for Xiao Tabuyan.
In other words, she can still have a big fight with her aunt.
Wang Chaoyu is really helpless!
The two continued to move forward.
Soon they walked out of this maze-like rockery area, walked through a not-so-wide valley between the two mountains. After turning a corner, it was like a paradise, and a fairyland on earth suddenly appeared in front of Wang Yue...
With a vast lake as the core, countless pavilions and towers stand among the flowers.
The tall building seemed to surpass all living beings in it.
A long bridge spans the lake in the distance, and more pavilions and towers on both sides extend.
And the lake is surrounded by mountains.
These hills wrapped by strange rocks and flowers separate the entire city outside. Here, it seems like being in a quiet valley in the deep mountains. The fog that has not yet dissipated in the morning cannot overflow because of the mountains surrounding it, covering the entire world of flowers and pavilions. The misty in the mist seems unreal.
And between the flowers and pavilions, there are almost no few men, all of them are young girls.
They are like butterflies flying among the flowers.
In addition, there are various rare birds and beasts, especially deer and cranes, who just walk around freely, adding inspiration to the great painter's paintings.
This is the fairyland on earth created by a great painter with his efforts to create for himself.
He piled up hills on the plains with countless artificial manipulations, transported all kinds of strange rocks and flowers from the entire empire and piled up these hills, and then filled them with six thousand beauties. He enjoyed the elegant life of his artist in this garden that is isolated from the fireworks of the world. These extremely human scenery blocked everything he didn't like to see. He forgot the world in this artificial wonderland with a circumference of three kilometers...
However, the secular world is his empire.
Beneath his elegant life, there are countless corpses of starving to death. Outside his paradise are countless wailings of hunger and cold. In the distance that his untainted mortal eyes cannot see is the corruption of the entire empire and the iron hooves of the trampled by foreign races.
This iron hoof will completely shatter his prosperous fireworks in a few years.
Even his strange stones will become shells to defend against the city, the rare birds and beasts he raise will become food for soldiers, and even his pavilions and towers will be demolished and smashed to the enemy. He exhausted the financial resources of the entire empire, causing a war of deaths of millions, and all the construction was fleeting like a bubble. Then, facing the real world, he had to embark on a journey to the wilderness in the wind and snow, accompanied by the crying of his wife and children, and whipped it.
The great painter is indeed an artist. No one does not admit that his writing is very good, and his paintings are also very good.
Absolute artist.
He ranked all calligraphers and painters in ancient times and was almost among the top 20.
But he is an emperor.
The last emperor, who was like him, had to reach the pinnacle of art. In his later years, he could only watch his ancestors play with his wife, and then chant lyrics sadly there, as if accompanying the scene of Zhao Er bullying Xiao Zhou Hou. So he was like Li Yu, and in the end he could only watch the Jurchens play with his wife in the cellar of Wuguo City, but he didn't know if he could recite poems even when he was hungry and cold.
By the way, this history really has a taste of fate and reincarnation.
Isn’t the great painter Li Yu’s reincarnation?
However, there are indeed such rumors among the people.
Wang Yue walked with a sigh, and soon he followed Eunuch Liu to the lakeside.
In the pavilion on the shore of the lake in front, Cai Youzheng stood modestly beside a middle-aged man with a rich and erectile slutty clothes. The latter was wearing an ordinary blue shirt. The two were studying something there with a painting, and there were still a few people around him.
Obviously this is a great painter.
In fact, he was not old, and at this time he was only forty, not even as big as Cai You. So even though he gave way to the front line during Jingkang, he still competed for power with his son and wanted to establish a new court in Jiangnan. The father and son caused a serious split within the Song Dynasty, which was already on the verge of collapse. In the end, the strange performance of the civil servants in the defense battle of Bianliang had a lot to do with this, and they were captured and blamed his son for not listening to him.
Eunuch Liu asked Wang Yue to stop, then walked up to a eunuch and said a few words. The latter looked up at Wang Yue.
At this time, Cai You also saw it.
The two exchanged gazes from across the air, and the eunuch nodded immediately. Eunuch Liu hurriedly came back and continued to move forward with Wang Yue. Cai You also reminded the great painter. The latter did not look up, but just looked at the painting there and nodded slightly. The eunuch then stepped forward, Eunuch Liu stopped, and the eunuch led Wang Yue to continue to walk towards the great painter. Before he parted, Eunuch Liu made a kneeling posture to remind Wang Yue, obviously he was worthy of the gem.
However……
"My Lord Right Wu, Taozhou Defense Envoy, and the commander of the Changsheng Army, Wang Yue, has met Your Majesty!"
Wang Yue said simply by clasping his fists and bent over.
"Bold, don't kneel down when you see Your Majesty!"
The eunuch shouted.
The great painter looked up at Wang Yue, and his expression was quite playful, while Cai You's face changed. The eunuch Liu behind him was already crying and was even slapped at the leg. The eunuch waved to the guards, waiting for the great painter to drag the guy out and chop him. The ministers of the Song Dynasty could not kneel, but it depends on their identity and occasions. The civil and close ministers in daily life are indeed fine, but the foreign ministers who dared not kneel down when they met for the first time, which would be really a big deal.
A well-educated scholar can be forgiven.
But for an ordinary general, there is no need to forgive him.
However……
"Your Majesty, do you want to become an immortal?"
Wang Yue kept that position and looked up at the great painter, saying with a smile as if he didn't know that he was dead.
The great painter straightened his waist instantly.
The next moment, Wang Yue clasped his fists and the ancestral treasure axe suddenly appeared out of thin air...
