In the music and songs of the three thousand worlds, in the splendor of the twelve capitals.
Win the bright sun and moon in the deep palace, and use the silver zither and sandalwood to express a new tune.
The mist is shallow, and the moonlight is thick in Chang'an City.
In the Mingde Hall of the Daming Palace, Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty held a grand banquet to celebrate the birthday of his imperial concubine Yuhuan.
The rule for this banquet was a family banquet, and the guests attending the banquet were either the princes, grandsons, or princesses and princesses. Except for a few dignitaries who had received the emperor's favor, few foreign ministers were able to set foot in the Mingde Palace during this beautiful moonlit time.
of stone steps.
Of course, except the Yang family.
Except for Yang Zhao, the censor Zhongcheng, who is the royal family member of Zhenglong, all the five poplars in the capital have arrived.
Mrs. Guo, Mrs. Korea, and Mrs. Qin had fluttering sleeves and robes that covered the floor, envying many princes and grandsons; Yang Qi, the minister of Sinong Temple, and Yang Wei, the minister of Taipu Temple, had crowns and crowns, and noble ornaments, and captured countless princesses.
Heart.
The power of the Yang family was so great that even Li Linfu, the Right Chancellor of the Tang Dynasty, did not dare to directly challenge his wishes.
In the main hall, women's sleeves danced lightly, palace merchants mingled, creating an auspicious and beautiful scene. (Note 1)
But the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, couldn't get the slightest bit of interest out of him. He had been feeling very depressed these days. The battle reports coming from Longyou came one after another, but none of them made him feel comfortable! Brother Shuhan was not writing a memorial.
He told him that the supply of grain and grass was tight, so he asked for some grace to allow the Tang army to take full advantage of their numbers. Little did he know that Taicang's rice grain could not make ends meet. In order to calm down the price of rice in Beijing, he had ordered Li Linfu to resign from a wealthy family.
The Central Government requisitioned grain. In this way, the price of grain was reduced, but it also offended all the wealthy families in Guanlong! For the sake of the battle in Longyou, Li Longji tightened his belt and took all the money from his private treasury.
When he came out, his brother Shu Han still felt wronged!
Humph, his brother Shu Han can go to the court to report his grievances, but who can he go to to express his difficulties?
Of course, the battle reports from the front line also pleased him. In a secret report sent on the fifth day of May, the military supervisor Wang Xianzhong specifically praised a low-level officer. Well, what is his name? Li Kuo? This guy actually led more than five hundred people.
A soldier from the Tang Dynasty crossed Qinghai and set fire to the grain depot in Fuqi City! This made him very excited for several days. You must know that Fuqi City had stored a large amount of military rations for the Eastern Front of Tubo. If this was not done in time,
From Luoxucheng and Wuhai, the Tibetan people couldn't even get enough to eat!
However, what dissatisfied Li Longji was that Ge Shuhan did not state the matter in the official commendation. The date written in Wang Xianzhong's secret note to him was the fifth day of May. It is impossible for Ge Shuhan to get the news later than Wang Xianzhong. Long You
An urgent military report of five hundred miles would only take three days at most. Ge Shuhan has not mentioned this matter until now. Could it be that he wants to suppress this young man's military exploits?
Humph! He, Li Longji, hated the general Jiedu who played tricks on him the most. The examples of Wang Zhongsi and Huangfu Weiming were right in front of him. Did his brother Shu Han think that he was smarter than these two people?
It seems like it’s time for me to give him a good beating. I just took up the post of Longyou Jiedu and deceived myself like this. What if Longyou’s army will not become his brother Shu Han’s private army in a few more years?
"Sanlang, look at your frown, what are you unhappy about?" Yang Yuhuan wore a goose-yellow palace dress today, with her breasts half exposed, which is very charming.
"Haha, it's nothing, I'm just worried about Longyou." When he saw Yang Yuhuan's face like mutton-fat jade, Li Longji felt his heart tremble, and the sadness on his face disappeared instantly.
"Didn't Sanlang just receive a good news a few days ago? Why aren't you happy?" Yang Yuhuan picked up a Gaochang grape and handed it to Li Longji's mouth.
Li Longji swallowed the grapes into his mouth and said: "Well, there is indeed a good news. An officer from Longyou led a group of people to sneak to the west bank of Qinghai and burned down the Tibetan granary."
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Yang Yuhuan generally never inquired about foreign political affairs, so although she knew through Gao Lishi's relationship that Sanlang had received a Longyou victory report, she did not know the content.
"That San Lang must reward him well." Yang Yuhuan half-squinted his eyes and leaned on Li Longji's chest.
"Well, that's of course. I have always made clear rewards and punishments, and I will never let a hero down. I will reward him how Yuhuan says he wants to be rewarded." Li Longji felt very comfortable in his chest, and he casually agreed.
.
"I heard that the general is very young, only seventeen?" Yang Yuhuan handed Li Longji a glass of fine wine, Shi Shiran said with a smile. "In this case, the slave family will ask this young man to be the master and teach the slave family the art of archery.
I wonder if Zhaijia can allow it?” (Note 2)
Li Longji waved his hand and said: "What's so difficult about this? If he knew that he could become my concubine's master, he would secretly laugh. Even I have never had the opportunity to teach Yuhuan archery."
Hearing the jealousy in his words, Yang Yuhuan sneered: "Look at you, your heart is as small as that needle nose."
Knowing that Concubine Yang was teasing her intentionally, Li Longji didn't feel annoyed at all: "Well, yes, I'm so petty for Yuhuan."
"Your Majesty, this piece of music played by the King of Qin to break the formation made me excited. I wish I could immediately carry my sword to Longyou and recover the old land of Hehuang for Your Majesty." (Note 3)
Seeing that Li Longji was in a good mood, the Censor Zhongcheng Yang Zhao hurriedly stood up and walked a few steps to the censor's case, bowed down and bowed.
"Well, the Tang Dynasty has a pillar of talent like Yang Qing, and I have such a loyal minister, so why should the Tang Dynasty be unhappy?"
Li Longji nodded to Yang Zhao with satisfaction, and sent out words of praise without hesitation. Yang Zhao was a good person, and his performance was very appropriate. Every time he talked loudly, he felt extremely comfortable.
"I dare not take this responsibility. The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is all due to your majesty. If it were not for your majesty's caring eyes, how could all the officials do their best, and how could the scholars serve the court? If it were not for your majesty's broad mind,
How did the barbarians submit to the Tang Dynasty, and how did the barbarians admire our Chinese culture? Long live, long live, long live, Your Majesty. Long live, Khan of heaven, long live, long live."
Boom, boom, boom!
Yang Zhao bowed down and kowtowed three times.
"Haha, Yang Qing is really my Zhang Zifang, Xun Wenruo. Come on, please continue to play music. Today's banquet does not follow the customary etiquette of monarchs and ministers. You must not return until you are drunk!"
The orchestras are playing in unison, the songs and dances are flying, and the palace is filled with beautiful spring scenery.
Li Longji, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, felt extremely proud and proud, wearing colorful and feathery clothes to bring peace, and he seemed to have returned to the lush days of decades ago.
