Chapter 67 Your Majesty the Emperor, You Are Too Stingy
Li Mu said: "Father, I know a little bit about it, how about I also go on stage and perform a piece for my father?"
"Okay, okay, that's how it should be. Twenty-one, it's up to you." Li Longji was full of interest.
Seeing that Li Longji was in high spirits and even suddenly became a teenager, Li Mu had no choice but to go on stage in person and perform several difficult moves.
Li Longji couldn't stop cheering when he saw it.
When Li Mu came down, Li Longji stood up and directly held Li Mu's hand. This twenty-one, since recovering from the illness, has continued to surprise him, and the loving emotions in Li Longji's heart have continued to escalate.
Seeing how excited Li Longji was, Li Mu simply encouraged him.
Li Mu said: "Father, are you itching to see it and want to try it?"
Li Longji nodded and said: "Twenty-one, you see what I mean, okay, can I give it a try?"
Although Li Longji was not an emperor on horseback, he was born in the royal family of the Tang Dynasty and had to be proficient in horseback riding and archery since he was a child.
After becoming the prince, he specially arranged for several skilled masters to learn weapons and exercises for a long time, and gained a very profound foundation and attainment in martial arts.
Before Li Mu could answer, Gao Lishi tried to dissuade him: "Your Majesty, this rainbow circle is certainly beautiful, but your Majesty practiced it himself, and I am terrified. If it twists my waist, I and the others will be punished by death."
Let me start with the nice words first. If Li Longji gets happy and sprains his waist, will he be punished mercilessly by these eunuch guards who are protecting him?
Gao Lishi was always on tenterhooks anyway.
Li Longji frowned, glared at Gao Lishi, and said: "I sprained my waist, am I that old? Do you think my body is made of tofu? I'm not afraid of killing enemies on horseback, let alone a rainbow circle?"
Gao Lishi was scolded and hurriedly apologized.
Seeing Gao Lishi's pity, Li Mu hurriedly said: "Father, Eunuch Gao also has good intentions, but with my father's body, playing this is a piece of cake. Father, this rainbow circle gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is not only fun, but also often
Not only does exercise refresh your mind, it is also a good thing to strengthen your kidneys and yang, so it is worth practicing."
"Really? Is it as evil as you said?" Li Longji liked it even more when he heard that it also has the auxiliary function of strengthening the kidneys and strengthening yang.
Li Mu nodded. There is no need to explain this. Regular waist twisting exercises are naturally a good way to strengthen the kidneys. Li Longji is good at this. Without strong kidneys, what fun is there in life?
Li Longji stood up decisively and was supported by Gao Lishi. He also glanced at Li Mu gratefully. If Li Mu hadn't changed the subject, Gao Lishi would not have been able to step down.
When several dancers saw Li Longji walking towards the stage, they hurriedly stopped and knelt down on the ground. Princess Meixi was clever and jumped off the stage to greet Li Longji.
Meixi bowed deeply and said: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Meixi from Korea has met your Majesty. Meixi was assigned by His Highness the Prince to teach the Rainbow Circle Dance. She danced clumsily and ugly. Please punish me?"
Li Longji chuckled and said: "Princess Meixi, the rainbow circle dance you danced is really from the Twenty-One Teaching?"
Meixi said mischievously: "Seriously, can this be fake? His Royal Highness is a prodigy in poetry and prose, and he is also a prodigy in dancing. Your Majesty doesn't know that?"
Li Longji smiled and said: "It seems that you all like Twenty-One? He can write poems and make jokes, and he can dance and make noise. It is inevitable to please girls."
Li Mu was told by Li Longji that he bowed his head and remained silent.
Mei Xi said: "We all like to listen to His Highness the Prince's teachings. Your Majesty, it is His Majesty's blessing that you have such a good prince."
"Well, well, Princess Meixi said it well. She also danced wonderfully, which opened my eyes. Come, let's have fun together today."
As Li Longji said this, he came on stage. Li Mu personally took a brand new rainbow circle, put it on Li Longji's waist, and briefly introduced the essentials of the movements.
Li Longji is talented and intelligent, and apart from entertainment, he can do this kind of thing as soon as he sees it, and he will immediately start twisting.
All the dancers and guards applauded and played the rhythm for Li Longji.
Li Longji had a great time. Although the rainbow circle fell several times, fortunately, Li Mu was right next to him, and he had quick eyesight and quick hands to rescue him at the right time, which made Li Longji even more happy.
After a cup of tea, Li Longji stopped and sat down again. Gao Lishi had already prepared refreshments. Li Longji asked Li Mu to accompany him and personally took two snacks, one for Li Mu and one for Mei. Xi.
Li Longji said with a smile: "Princess Meixi, she is smart, pretty, lively and cute, and I am very relieved to be by my side. Autumn is cold, and your country of Korea is covered in ice and snow, so I might as well stay here longer and wait for next spring. , what if you consider returning to China?"
Although Li Longji also liked Princess Meixi's character and dance, in his heart, he definitely regarded Koryo as a very small vassal state.
No matter how beautiful and cute she is, she can play with her all winter long, but it is limited to playing with her. When spring comes, the flowers are blooming, and she can still come and go wherever she goes.
Li Longji clearly defined the boundaries between blood and ethnicity.
Meixi suddenly became depressed and said: "Meixi is very grateful for His Majesty's kindness. Originally, Meixi wanted to stay in the Tang Dynasty. Even if she never went back, she was willing to do so. However, because her father was seriously ill, Meixi had no choice but to stay in the Tang Dynasty. Please leave in advance and ask His Majesty the Emperor for permission?"
Li Longji was stunned for a moment, then said "Oh" and asked: "Is your father seriously ill? Children should naturally stay by their side to fulfill their filial piety. You might as well. If you want to come to Datang in the future, you are always welcome."
Meixi felt grateful and took the opportunity to express her feelings.
Meixi said: "Koryo is a small country. It has always been protected by the Tang Dynasty. The country is peaceful and the people are safe. My father is very grateful. If His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty can also send envoys to inspect Korea, the entire Korea will be blessed. , I will always be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."
Li Longji was startled and said: "Oh, Princess Meixi's proposal is indeed very far-sighted. Our Tang Dynasty dominates the world, pays equal attention to benevolence and power, and is home from all over the world. We should arrange envoys to go around and look around to care for the world and ensure that It’s a good idea to keep our neighbors safe and prosperous.”
Meixi looked at Li Mu expectantly, and Li Mu could only say: "What my father said is absolutely true. The Tang Dynasty is prosperous, and it is a good time to embrace the world. Honglu Temple obeys the heavens and people, and it happens to be great."
The Honglu Temple was established in the Tang Dynasty to handle foreign affairs. Princess Meixi still lives in the Honglu Hotel on Chang'an Avenue.
Li Longji nodded, looking forward to his beauty, and said: "Your Majesty, if His Royal Highness Prince Li Mu can inspect the Kingdom of Korea, it will be a great favor from His Majesty the Emperor, and the entire Kingdom of Korea will surely celebrate with joy."
Meixi's little thoughts are all about Li Mu. She knows very well that the luck of her return this time is unpredictable. It is unknown whether she can return to Chang'an or whether she can see Li Mu again.
The only expectation in the girl's heart is to stay with Li Mu. Even if it's for a day or a month, if she can't come, can Li Mu justifiably visit her?
Li Longji looked at Li Mu, who could only lower his head. This kind of thing was too far away and not suitable for discussion.
Li Longji said: "Princess Meixi, your idea is very good. As for how to implement it, I have my own decision. This is not the place to talk about state affairs."
Li Longji made a clear distinction between public and private matters. What he disliked most was talking about state affairs. Fortunately, he was in a good mood today, and Princess Meixi's suggestion was also very insightful. However, Li Longji immediately stopped the topic.
Meixi was unwilling to give in and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, Meixi naturally does not dare to discuss state affairs arbitrarily, but Meixi has a small request, which is a private matter. Please fulfill it."
Li Longji saw Meixi's bright eyes full of affection, spoke softly, and kept looking at Li Mu. He also felt that such a girl was rare. If Meixi hadn't been the princess of Goryeo, Li Longji would have made the decision long ago to give Li Mu a gift.
Married.
Li Longji said: "What other personal matters does Princess Meixi have? I will meet your request today. Can you tell me?"
Meixi suddenly smiled and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, you have made the Tang Dynasty prosperous and prosperous, but you are too stingy."
Li Longji laughed loudly, turned around and glanced at Gao Lishi and the entourage, and said: "You say I am stingy? This is a big news. Tell me, where do you start talking about being stingy?"
Li Mu was confused when he heard this. He didn't know how this beauty could speak so carelessly and not to harm himself.
Mei Xi giggled and said: "Look, the twenty-first prince rehearses songs and dances for His Majesty all day long, and is devoted to serving His Majesty. There are a few ignorant little eunuchs around him, and he doesn't even have a personal maid who can command him. This
Isn’t that considered stingy?”
Li Longji was amused and laughed again. Gao Lishi covered his mouth and snickered. He was also worried about Princess Meixi. This Princess Meixi really dared to say so.
Li Longji had laughed enough and said: "Twenty-one, do you really have no personal maids in your house? Do you warm the bed and fold the quilts, but are all served by little eunuchs?"
Li Mu hurriedly bowed and said: "Back to my father, the child likes to be quiet. He is used to being served by young eunuchs. He doesn't like the maid around him. He chatters and makes a fuss instead." This chapter has been completed!
