Chapter 3 Undisturbed(1/2)
The stars hang low, and on the high slopes of the grassland, there are beauties dancing gracefully under the night.
The graceful figure is stretched and straight, sometimes lifting the skirt and looking at the moon, sometimes flying and swirling legs, full of youthful vitality and mysterious atmosphere. After watching for a long time, you will be immersed in it and can't help but shout "Hello".
The horse-head fiddle danced with a round voice, low and melodious. Although the volume is not loud, it still looks very pleasant in the empty fields.
The person who dances is Yue Liduo, and the person who plays the piano is Yelu Abaoji.
When the herdsmen on the grassland are well fed and well, they always play the piano and dance to enjoy life, thanking God for the gift. Although Yelu Abaoji is the king on the grassland, he is also a herdsman. He enjoys things that ordinary people enjoy, and he enjoys them.
This is not how friendly Yelu Abaoji is, there is no concept on the grassland. Tribal chiefs are more cattle and sheep, more fierce warriors, and more warriors can be instructed. In addition, the lack of materials makes them unable to understand what it is to be a debauchery.
Simplicity often means purity.
Just a song, Yelu Abaoji put down the horse-head fiddle, spread his arms and exaggeratedly, and praised Yue Liduo's dancing posture loudly. His words were so explicit that Yue Liduo, whose face was flushed, became even more shy, but he just glared at him and lay in his arms.
Yelu Abaoji, holding the beauty, said loudly: "Do you know Yueliduo? I heard that there were two million people in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, and there were everything there, and many objects were more magical than the natural stars and moons.
"Their many musical instruments can't be finished in their lifetime, their rich singing and dancing can't be finished in their lifetime, their beautiful clothes can't be finished in their lifetime, and their wine and dishes are so numerous that people can't be finished in their lifetime...
"Yueliduo, when we step on the Central Plains and conquer Chang'an, I will definitely give you the best brothel in Pingkangfang, so that you can wear colorful clothes and dance the best dance!"
Yue Liduo thought about it seriously, her eyes full of doubts, "But, I heard that the brothel seems to be a brothel. Do I want to dance in the brothel?"
Yelu Abaoji was stunned, "A brothel is a brothel?"
Yue Liduo nodded, "It seems like that's it."
Yelu Abaoji touched his chin and pondered for a moment, "If this happens, I will book the entire brothel, so no one will come to grab you from me, and I can only watch the dance you dance."
Yue Liduo's eyes were filled with stars and said happily: "My king, you really love Yue Liduo!"
Yelu Abaoji laughed proudly, very happy.
Using the ground as the bed and the sky as the quilt is the most suitable place for men and women on the grassland, Yelu Abaoji and Yueliduo are no exception. A low and gentle sound soon sounded on the high slope, but this time it was no longer a horse-head fiddle, but the woman's chant.
When the battle ended, the two men hugged each other and said shameful love words for a while, then put on their clothes and rode on their horses. Under the bright moonlight, they rode their horses across the vast grassland and returned to their camp.
Yelu Abaoji carried Yue Liduo off the horse and was about to carry him into the tent directly, but he saw a person standing in the shadow in front of the tent. He sighed and said helplessly: "Why do I have to see your gloomy face whenever I enjoy the beauty of life?"
The monk of the White-haired God Cult chuckled and said, "That's because the king enjoys too much time in life."
Yelu Abaoji was ridiculed in person. Not only did he not get angry, he thought seriously, and then nodded seriously, "I think what you said is not unreasonable."
He put down Yue Liduo and asked her to go to the tent by herself, and then he and the white-haired messenger came to another larger tent.
Yelu Abaoji sat on a big bearskin chair, waved his hand casually, and signaled the messenger to sit casually, "Why are you going to come to me at this time?"
The envoy of the god said without any rush: "Shatuo, Dangxiang, Uighurs, Tubo, Nanzhao, Bohai Kingdom, we have contacted all parties. Soon, all parties will send envoys to the West Tower to discuss the specific details of sending troops to the Tang Dynasty.
"But unfortunately, this news was found by the Qingyi Yamen. What's even more unfortunate is that we were unable to intercept this information, so the most unfortunate thing is that Li Ye had already learned the news at this time."
Yelu Abaoji stood up from the throne and opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, he sat down on his own.
He looked at the envoy with a deep look: "If Li Ye heard this news, with his personality, he would definitely take the initiative. The world attacks the Tang Dynasty, which is very powerful, but wars must be initiated at the same time. Before that, we are still just a mess.
"If Li Ye attacked decisively and destroyed Shatuo and Dangxiang, the two weakest tribes, could have the effect of deterring the nations, and then sent envoys to comfort Nanzhao and Bohai Kingdom, our union would collapse soon!
"At that time, only the Uighurs can fight us to the end. The Tang Dynasty only needs to defend Yangguan, just like the defending army of the Shimen Monks, to curb the Uighurs. At that time, we will concentrate our efforts to deal with us. Wouldn't we wait for destruction?"
Yelu Abaoji's words were not alarmist.
In fact, his understanding of the strength of the Khitan is very objective. Judging from the current situation, the Khitan cannot confront the Tang Dynasty head-on.
Unifying the grasslands in northern Demon is a great achievement, but it is only for the grassland. Facing the huge Tang Dynasty, especially the Tang Dynasty and countless elite soldiers that had just been tempered by blood and fire, the Khitan could not withstand the frontal attack of the Tang Dynasty.
And if you wait for another three to five years, the situation will only be worse.
Although the Khitan has been learning the Tang Dynasty over the years, setting up officials, revitalizing hundreds of craftsmen, building cities, and promoting culture, learning is learning after all, and there is a process, and it is not that easy to get to the point of being well-versed.
The Tang Dynasty had these things, and after the country was pacified, all the wastes would prosper in a blink of an eye.
The comparison of national strength is obvious.
The envoy of the God was not panicked at all and said calmly: "Shatuo, the two divisions of Dangxiang are indeed a little weak, but I have sent great monks to support me. If Li Ye attacks rashly, he will only step into the trap we set."
Yelu Abaoji said disdainfully: "If hundreds of great monks of the Tang Dynasty come out in full bloom, no matter how powerful the trap you set up, it will disappear in an instant in the face of absolute strength!"
The envoy laughed out loud: "If Li Ye dares to send all the great monks out, that is what we really think."
Yelu Abaoji frowned, "Can you finish the words at once?"
The envoy said calmly: "Although Li Ye pacified the Tang Dynasty, the process was too fast and many princes had not been eradicated. Therefore, the current unification of the Tang Dynasty only seemed unified on the surface.
"As long as we use a little means, we will not worry about no longer wars in the Tang Dynasty. If Li Ye can let the great monks come out in full bloom, we can do it. At that time, as long as we hold them back for a while, the Tang Dynasty will be in chaos!"
Yelu Abaoji naturally understood the profound meaning of these words.
In addition to Li Keyong and Gao Pian's death, Zhu Wen and Wang Jian were still alive. Zhu Wen heard that he had retired to the countryside and lived a hermit-like life, while Wang Jian became a leisurely prince and was enjoying wealth.
In addition, there are some small princes who are still the governors. In order to appease them, Li Ye also promoted them to the title. Although he did not have any real power, his status was there.
For example, several vassal kings in Chu, Lingnan, and Wu and Yue.
These places are far away from Chang'an and are dangerous to mountains and rivers. If these people can really be asked to cooperate with Nanzhao and the helpers they sent out, as long as the strategy is properly arranged, it will definitely be effective in instantly destroying the Tang Dynasty.
I heard that the Confucian school of the Tang Dynasty has always been very powerful.
Although the Confucian Confucian clan, who had supported Gao Pian before, succeeded in withdrawing from Yangzhou at the last moment and was not greatly purged. Now that they have this opportunity to re-plan the world and fight, they must be very happy.
Seeing that Yelu Abaoji was thinking, the god-in-commanded smiled and proudly said: "Now you need to send someone to give them this opportunity. The Tang people said that when the world is in a big fight, all those with blood and energy will have a fight. Before these people can accomplish anything, they have their achievements and have been strangled by Li Ye. I think they must be dissatisfied.
"As long as the conditions for signing the contract are more favorable, there is no need to worry about not leaving."
Yelu Abaoji pondered for a long time, and finally nodded and said, "In order to destroy Tang, there is only one way, so try it out."
......
Autumn is the chorus of harvest, which is a truth that everyone knows, especially farmers.
But for Zhu Wen, this was the first time he had earned the food he had planted seriously, so the joy was particularly strong.
When I was young, although I let go of cattle and planted them, I was always doing errands. In essence, I looked down on farm work and never thought of relying on these things to support myself.
Moreover, since I live in other people's homes, the food I harvest is not my own, so I feel like I have no harvest.
However, this time is different.
Last year, when he returned to the countryside, Zhu Wen bought thousands of acres of fertile land, built a manor for his own family, and collected some tenants. He was both a local owner and a farmer.
He had nothing to do every day, and he went to the land to farm. Taking care of the land became his main job. Although he had great cultivation, he had never used the power of cultivation when he got to the ground. He just worked with his simple strength, which was no different from an ordinary farmer.
The merchants in the manor didn't know that their owner was actually a god who was limited by Kunlun rules. When they chatted and bragged with the owner in the fields, the other party was as unrestrained as them. Apart from being very generous, there was nothing special about it.
A few people who can brag, come to the owner of the house every time they rest, and can also be given a gourd wine to drink. That is a good wine, and the housekeepers can drink less than twice a year, so everyone is very satisfied with their owner.
Of course, the owner's wife is naturally extremely beautiful, so beautiful that it reaches the imagination limit of simple merchants; the owner's daughter is also extremely cute, so cute that anyone who sees her will not help but tease her.
Sometimes when you see the other person talking and behave in a stern manner, you will deliberately make the little girl angry. Whenever you are angry at this time, you often have these big words that you can't recognize a few shopkeepers.
The little girl's serious Zhihu came down, who could withstand it? She couldn't understand what others meant. Of course, she could only admire her in her heart. When she turned around and saw her runny boy, she would kick her a few times and exhale her breath.
Today is as usual. When the sun sets, the trees and trees are all in autumn, and the mountains are all in the setting sun. The shepherd drives the calves back, hunts horses and birds return, and Zhu Wen, who is covered with a lot of soil on his clothes and shirts, walked leisurely home with a hoe.
However, he saw a very familiar person on the road, which made him a little stunned, and then he smiled and went up to him.
Before they met, Zhu Wen took the wine gourd around his waist, threw it over, and smiled and said, "Although the wine brewed by home is not as good as the wine in Chang'an, it tastes two more."
The visitor took the wine gourd, and didn't say much. He pulled the plug and raised his head and took a sip, and smiled, "It's really good wine, with a bit of earthy smell."
Zhu Wen laughed loudly, walked to the person, took the gourd that was not much left of the wine, drank it by himself, and wiped his mouth: "The wine brewed by the country people naturally has a scent of earth. If King An is not used to drinking it, it is reasonable."
Li Ye shook his head and said, "The earthy smell is a kind of tempting taste, fresh and natural, without any miscellaneous things, which is rare."
The two walked towards the manor side by side.
Li Ye raised his sleeves with his hands, looked around, and smiled gently: "I thought you were hiding, that is, to enjoy the blessings of the world, but I didn't expect you to carry a hoe to the ground by yourself. The crops here are harvested horizontally and vertically, as if you had measured them with a ruler, and they must have been your hands."
Zhu Wen smiled proudly: "If a man cannot go to the field personally, he has to rely on exploiting the farmers to fill his stomach. Who is the hero?"
Li Ye gave a thumbs up, "Brother Zhu's heroic spirit remains the same as before."
Zhu Wen waved his hand, "How can you be so arrogant? You are for my son and daughter to see. As fathers, we can't let our children think they are lazy, right? Oh, sorry, you don't seem to be a father yet?"
Li Ye laughed silently and didn't know what to say. Logically speaking, he should have had children long ago. However, because the princess was still in the fairyland and could not come to the mortal world for the time being, Li Ye never thought about this.
After all, in Li Ye's heart, the princess must be the wife. The one who inherits his achievements in the future will only be his and the princess' children. Of course, it is better to be born as the eldest son.
The two of them came to the manor while talking idle.
Before entering the door, a little girl rushed out like a shell and suddenly crashed into Zhu Wen's arms, causing Zhu Wen to laugh. Li Ye helped Zhu Wen take the hoe so that the other party could pick up his daughter better.
It was a cute girl with a pink face, with her black eyes big and bright. Zhu Wen shaved her face with a stubble. While pushing Zhu Wen away with her pink hands, she kept giggling. Whether it was watching or listening, it made people feel very comfortable.
"Xiao Ya, how many times have you told you that my father was covered in dirt when he first came back. Don't put him on his body, let him go and change his clothes first..."
A woman with elegant makeup turned out from behind the screen wall, and she habitually complained about the unruly little girl. When she looked up and saw Li Ye, a stranger, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Seeing that Li Ye was extremely handsome and had very particular clothes and materials, he knew that the person who came must be a noble person, so he hurriedly squatted to greet him.
"Mrs. Sister-in-law is so polite." Li Ye returned the favor with a smile.
The woman didn't say anything to Li Ye. She just smiled apologetically and took away the little girl who was close to her father. She also taught her a lesson while walking, saying that in the future, she would not be so unpretentious when she saw that her father had a distinguished guest, otherwise everyone else would know that the little lady of the Zhu family would be unceremonious.
The little girl raised her head and asked naively, "What is a distinguished guest?" The woman said that any guest brought back by her father was a distinguished guest, and she should not be abrupt. The little girl nodded in a vain way, said oh, and followed the woman into the drooping flower gate and disappeared.
