Zhao Ling did not expect that his casual and perfunctory words would mess up Gao Yuan's mind again.
These two princesses were dedicated to Liu Ziqiu. Although they had not officially become the emperor's women, they were not accessible to others. Of course, Gao Yuan did not have the guts to give his daughters to Zhao Ling. He just let Zhao Ling take a look first.
, give him a thought, as for the specific plan, it is impossible to specify. However, after listening to Zhao Ling's words, Gao Yuan's heart became wild again. If Liu Ziqiu really fell in love with his daughter, he would not have to worry about Yi.
Does Zhi Wende have any intentions?
With mixed feelings, Gao Yuan finally came to the hall of the Domestic City Guards. In the hall, Liu Ziqiu was sitting behind the dragon table and was reviewing the memorials. These memorials were sent over quickly by Wei Zheng, and they were about the northwest.
There was movement. Daman, who left Luoyang and returned to his territory, was indeed unwilling to settle down. He first called the leaders of his tribes for a gathering, and then began to gather troops. The herdsmen of these nomadic tribes are all natural warriors and do not need special training.
You can mount your horse and fight. Daman soon gathered nearly 200,000 troops. After that, a team of more than a thousand people left Daman's camp and came towards Luoyang. According to Wei Zheng's speculation, this was Daman's army.
The marriage team.
Thinking of the evil-minded Daman, Liu Ziqiu secretly shook his head. Not to mention that he had always been opposed to sacrificing women in exchange for temporary peace. Even if he supported the marriage, it would not be possible unless he randomly found some maids to pretend to be the princesses of the burly man. This Daman
There is really something wrong with his brain. Liu Ziqiu also knew that Daman’s purpose of gathering the army was to put pressure on the Han. Because Daman knew that even if the Han did not have spies in the territory of the Western Turks, Xue Shixiong would report the news to Liu Ziqiu.
And Daman has always believed that the civil strife in the Han Dynasty is absolutely impossible, and it is absolutely impossible to start a war at this time. But Daman does not know that Liu Ziqiu is a soft-hearted person, otherwise he would not be able to control him in this ice and snow season.
Personally conquered Goryeo.
"If you don't seek death, you won't die!" Liu Ziqiu sneered and threw the memorial aside.
Gao Yuan didn't know what Liu Ziqiu was angry about, but he was startled. He quickly prostrated himself on the ground and said loudly: "Gao Yuan, the minister of Liaodong dung, comes to your Majesty, long live my emperor!"
Liu Ziqiu's face was serious, he raised his hand slightly and said: "Come here, show me your seat."
This kind of chair was very novel, and it was covered with a thick blanket. Gao Yuan sat down carefully. He felt very comfortable, but he didn't dare to sit as casually as Liu Ziqiu did. He wondered whether he should go back and find a carpenter to make a copy of it.
open.
But Liu Ziqiu had already laughed and said: "I think the prince has already agreed to my proposal?"
Gao Yuan hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty has given an order, how dare the young king disobey it? I wonder when will your Majesty be willing to send troops to help the young king capture Baekje and Silla?"
Liu Ziqiu smiled and waved his hand and said: "No, no, no. Things have changed. You can stay here and settle down, and we will have the results tomorrow."
He said "not busy", but Gao Yuan became even more busy. Especially when he heard the words "new changes", Gao Yuan's heart twitched and he quickly turned to look at Eulji Munduk. Eulji Munduk
His face suddenly changed, and he quickly raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Jun Wuxi, you can't go back on the things you said."
Liu Ziqiu laughed loudly and said: "Who am I? What I promise you will be fulfilled naturally! Okay, let's not talk about this for today. I am very happy to see you, your monarch and my ministers. I will understand it when I get drunk!"
Let’s go and have a drink!”
At this time, Liu Ziqiu didn't look like an emperor. He was clearly a member of the market. Gao Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong. Such people were easier to deal with. On the contrary, Eulji Wende had suffered losses and was wary. But it was useless no matter how vigilant he was.
, Liu Ziqiu didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and the banquet was only attended by Liu Ziqiu, Zhao Ling and Gao Yuan, so he was not even qualified to show up to Liu Ziqiu.
The banquet was naturally very sumptuous, and it was exactly the standard for entertaining state guests. Gao Yuan was thoughtful and refused to drink more, but he couldn't bear Zhao Ling's repeated persuasion and ended up getting drunk.
Liu Ziqiu then gave up, waved his hand, and said: "I didn't expect Gao Yuan to be so drunk, which really disappoints me. Zhao Aiqing, just rest with him next door."
Zhao Ling cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the prince of Goryeo has brought two princesses here. What are your orders?"
Liu Ziqiu thought for a while and said: "The princess is not an ordinary rich lady, but she needs to be treated with courtesy. First, find a place in the back house to settle down. You can take Gao Yuan down first. I haven't finished my fun yet. I'll continue here.
Have a drink."
"I obey!" Zhao Ling bowed deeply and helped Gao Yuan to the next door.
Next door is a wing, which is only separated from the hall by a wooden wall. The sound of silk and bamboo in the hall can still be clearly heard here. It is not a good place to rest. After entering the wing, Zhao Ling refused
Then he supported Gao Yuan and said: "Come here!"
Several soldiers walked in from outside, and the leader was Zhang Er. Zhang Er cupped his hands and said, "What are your orders, sir?"
Zhao Ling frowned and said, "Who are you? You should not be on duty here."
Zhang Er said hurriedly: "Your Excellency, it is clear that General Daleng temporarily transferred this villain here."
Zhao Ling nodded, then pointed to a canopy bed by the wall, and said: "Watch the prince rest. I have to settle the two princesses, so I will leave this place to you. Make sure to ensure the safety of the prince.
If something goes wrong, I am the only one who can ask questions!"
Zhang Er promised repeatedly and directed two of his men to help Gao Yuan to the couch. Then he quietly retreated and stood guard outside the door with a knife. There was no other person in the room. Gao Yuan, who was lying on the canopy bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, his brows were tightly knitted into the character "Sichuan". He was not drunk at all!
Speaking of Gao Yuan's drinking capacity, he is quite strong. Although he is full of thoughts, he is not so bad that he gets drunk easily. He still doesn't know what agreement was reached between Liu Ziqiu and Eulji Mundeok, so he
He was careful and pretended to be drunk first to avoid saying the wrong thing. However, after being arranged here by Liu Ziqiu, Gao Yuan was shocked because the guard outside the door had been replaced by Zhang, who made him very afraid.
2. What he was afraid of was not Jang Er's martial arts, but that there seemed to be some ulterior deal between him and Eulji Mundeok. If Jang Er wanted to plot against him, this might be an opportunity.
Gao Yuan looked around the room, but couldn't find any weapons to defend himself, and his personal dagger was taken away by the guards outside the door before entering the hall. He didn't want the weapon because he wanted to confront Liu Ziqiu directly, because
He knew that with the current situation, it was impossible to confront Liu Ziqiu. He just wanted to guard against Zhang Er's plot. Suddenly, Gao Yuan found an iron rod next to the canopy bed.
This iron rod is exactly the same as the iron rods on this strange canopy bed. It is obviously a part of the bed, but it was put aside for some unknown reason and was not assembled into the bed. Maybe it is a spare part, or maybe this strange bed
The person who assembled it was unfamiliar with it and left it here. But no matter what, this iron rod, which was only as thick as a baby's arm, was the best weapon he could find. What made him even more happy was that the iron rod
One end of the iron rod has been sharpened, probably to make it easier to insert into the ground, but to Gao Yuan, this iron rod is like a short spear!
Gao Yuan gently picked up the iron rod and hid it inside the canopy bed, covering it with a brocade quilt so that it could not be seen from the outside.
Suddenly, a voice came from the hall: "Your Majesty, the King of Silla is outside asking for an audience!"
Hearing this voice, Gao Yuan broke into a cold sweat. Didn't Eulji Mundeok say that Liu Ziqiu was going to help Goryeo conquer Silla and Baekje? Why did the King of Silla suddenly appear here? Could it be that all this is fake?
Is it a conspiracy devised between Liu Ziqiu and Eulji Mundeok, the purpose of which is to lure him to the domestic city?
The more Gao Yuan thought about it, the more scared he became, but he did not dare to move and could only listen quietly.
After a while, the sound of silk and bamboo in the hall stopped, and then someone said: "Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, this is the King of Silla."
Gao Yuan was shocked. This voice was very familiar. He seemed to be the most trusted person around Ulji Munduk! There had always been two people following Ulji Munduk, but this time Ulji Munduk returned to Pyongyang.
But he was alone. Gao Yuan was also very surprised at the time, so he asked casually, and Eulji Munduk hesitated, and finally did not explain clearly where the two people went. What Gao Yuan did not expect was that one of the two people
Someone actually appeared in the hall and introduced the King of Silla to Liu Ziqiu. This news was so shocking that Gao Yuan opened his mouth wide and could not close it for a long time.
In the hall, Liu Ziqiu and the King of Silla talked about something unknown. In short, their voices were very soft, and they seemed to be plotting something big.
Suddenly, someone came to report: "Your Majesty, the King of Baekje is outside asking for an audience!"
Immediately afterwards, Gao Yuan heard a familiar voice again. This time it was another confidant who had been with Eulji Mundeok for a long time. Eulji Mundeok's two closest confidants had been missing for a long time, but suddenly appeared here at the same time.
He was accompanied by the King of Silla and the King of Baekje respectively. What does this mean? Gao Yuan felt the cool breeze on his back, and he vaguely understood what Liu Ziqiu meant by the new changes.
Just when Gao Yuan was frightened, a guard suddenly shouted from outside the door: "Who is it! Stop!"
Outside the door, Eulji Mundeuk whispered: "Brother, could you please do me a favor? I have something to ask you to see my king."
The guard refused to give in: "Your Majesty has ordered that the prince is resting and no one is allowed to disturb him!"
At this time, Zhang Er's voice came: "Haha, it turns out to be Master Eulji. What are you doing! This is Master Eulji, the red man in front of His Majesty, please get out of the way!" Eulji Wende frowned,
He didn't know when he became Liu Ziqiu's favorite. But he also heard the news that the king of Silla and the king of Baekje came to the inner city one after another. Such a big event could not tolerate any delay. He had to report to Gao Yuan immediately and come up with something.
Countermeasures, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Therefore, Eulji Wende didn't think much, thanked Zhang Er, opened the door and walked into the wing room.
