The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 282

Yan Zhaoyan Guo Wei, then built a golden platform.

Zhao Zhi and Zou Yanfu come together for Xin Fang.

However, Qing Yunshi, abandon me like dust.

Pearls and jade buy songs and laugh, dross cultivates talents.

Knowing Huang Huju, wandering alone for thousands of miles.

——"Ancient Style Fifteen" Li Bai

……

A court lady hurried over to clean up the remains of tea on the ground.

Yang Guozhong said sincerely: "Leading the army to fight against the barbarians? Isn't this forcing me to die!"

Yang Guozhong hurriedly waved his hands, and evaded: "My lords don't know, I was just a small master in the Jiannan Army back then, and I had never fought..."

Another court lady handed the newly changed teacup to Yang Guozhong's hand, secretly pinched the back of Yang Guozhong's hand, and winked at the teacup.

Yang Guozhong hurriedly shut up, moistened his throat with a cup, pretended to choke on water, and took the opportunity to delay the time.

Tea is ginseng tea, nothing special.

Looking at the teacup again, the story of Zisi, Zixing, Zili, and Zilai in "Zhuangzi The Great Master" is painted on the surface of the cup.There are four small characters next to the pattern: "The best friend."

"'Invincible friend', what does this mean?
'Irreversible Friend', 'Irreversible'...

Yang Guozhong's mind was spinning, and he suddenly understood the empress's intention in a flash.

"'Mo Ni', Mo Ni' means don't go against His Majesty's will!"

To Yang Guozhong, this one or two seconds seems to be as long as a cup of tea.

Yang Guozhong's mouth was dry and he drank the ginseng tea in one gulp.

Putting down the cup, he forgot to be decent, subconsciously wiped his mouth with the court clothes, took a breath, and continued to say: "However, as long as you can share your majesty's worries and be loyal to the country, you will be shrouded in horse leather, and you will die!"

After Yang Guozhong finished speaking, he stole a glance at Xuanzong.The cold light in Xuanzong's eyes receded, he stroked his long beard, and nodded with satisfaction.

Yang Guozhong broke out in a cold sweat from fright, only to feel the cold wind whistling on his back, making him feel icy cold.If I had said a wrong sentence just now, the consequences would be disastrous.

Li Linfu looked at Yang Guozhong in disbelief, with playful eyes.

Xuanzong finally spoke: "My intention has been decided. Yang Zhao will be the commander-in-chief to lead the Jiannan Army and fight against Nanzhao. The Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War prepare money and food, and recruit civilians to ensure that food, grass and supplies arrive at the army on time. Xianyu Zhongtong, you will be here early tomorrow morning." Let’s set off, gather the vanguard troops, and leave the battlefield quickly.”

The crowd bowed.

Yang Guozhong walked out of the hall and looked at the sky full of stars, and he was relieved.He thought to himself: "Tonight we have escaped a catastrophe, but after this farewell, it is unknown whether we can see the night sky of Chang'an again in the future."

……

The New Year's Eve banquet was as expected by Yang Guozhong. The Daming Palace was filled with brilliant fireworks, starry night like day, and an unprecedented grand occasion.

The four seas return to the instrument, and the eight directions come to the DPRK.

Li Linfu led civil and military officials three times to toast to the Holy Majesty and the imperial concubine—to pray for a good harvest of grains, a clean sea and a clean river, and peace for the country and the people.

This is the prime minister of the Tang Empire!

Majestic and majestic, the scenery is infinite, just this moment of highlight is enough to honor the ancestors!
Yang Guozhong is envious, jealous and hateful, with mixed feelings.

He followed behind Li Linfu in a sour manner, saluted and kowtowed, following every step, feeling ashamed.

Officials who have always been close, as if avoiding the plague, deliberately distanced themselves and stayed far away.What's more, they hid from the side and pointed, watching their embarrassment.As if laughing at myself for this trip to Nanzhao, the wind is rustling, the water is cold, and once gone, I will never return.

Yang Guozhong gritted his teeth with hatred, and said in his heart: "These bastards are scumbags. A few days ago, they were wagging their heads and tails in front of my door like dogs. Seeing that I am in trouble today, they didn't even have a word of self-esteem, and they threw trouble one after another.

If I survive this catastrophe, I will regain power in the future, and see if I don't kill these bastards one by one!To relieve the hatred in my heart today! "

Yang Guozhong was in the midst of lust, and Li Linfu came to toast with all the officials, holding a wine glass.

Yang Guozhong hurriedly stood up and saluted, first doing and respecting.

Li Linfu stopped in front of Yang Guozhong, and also drank the wine in his glass.He rubbed the wine glass, his eyes were playful, and he said contemptuously in his heart: "How about it, did you see through me, or did I beat you down?"

Of course, Li Linfu said something else: "Your Majesty, the Holy Majesty still relies on you very much. So many famous generals in the court are eagerly waiting for this opportunity to fight on the battlefield and make achievements. Your Majesty has given this great military achievement to your lord." You, it shows that you appreciate and value adults.

When Lord Yang returns triumphantly, he will really be in the prime of his life!At that time, please take care of Master Yang..."

What Li Linfu said was impeccable and touching.If you don't know the delicate relationship between the two, you must think that the two are friends for many years, and they are irreversible friends.

Yang Guozhong looked at Li Linfu's sincere eyes, cold and fearful, and said in his heart: "Yang is convinced! With you as an old fox for a day, I, Yang Zhao, will bow down."

……

After the prince and all the officials had finished toasting, it was the turn of the emperor's grandchildren to toast.

Among these emperors and grandchildren, some are full of poetry and books, full of economics.Some are proficient in Wentao, Wulue, bow and horse.Some are financially shrewd and capable.

Xuanzong looked at his children and grandchildren, his heart was full of joy and his face was full of smiles.At this moment, he is not the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who dominates the world and only respects himself, but more like a kind old man next door who loves his grandchildren.

He smiled and said to Concubine Yang: "My grandchildren are all so outstanding, it really bothers me."

Concubine Yang Guixue is smart, she smiles without saying a word.She peeled away the shells of a few Western Region nuts, and put the nuts into the plate in front of Xuanzong, caring and warm.

Xuanzong turned his eyes and looked at Gao Lishi.Gao Lishi had an idea and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't played polo for a long time, right?"

Xuanzong said with a smile: "You old bastard is the most cunning, you can say whatever you want? Hehe"

Gao Lishi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, in half a month, it will be the Lantern Festival. This year, besides the lantern viewing, should the capital hold a polo competition to make the people of Chang'an lively?"

As soon as Gao Lishi came up with this idea, Xuanzong and the imperial concubine applauded.Even the maids and eunuchs were delighted.

You know, this polo is a popular sport in the Tang Dynasty, everyone loves it.If it can be handled by the royal family, it must be unprecedented.The court ladies have the opportunity to meet the handsome young man from Chang'an.Eunuchs had many opportunities to earn extra money.After a few games, the silver reward alone can cover a year's expenses.

Happy to everyone!

Gao Lishi laughed and said: "Your Majesty was the number one polo player in the Tang Dynasty back then, beating the number one team in the Snowy Plateau led by Prince Tubo!

This time, it is better to let the emperor's grandchildren freely form a team and see who has the style of His Majesty back then? "

With a thought in Xuanzong's mind, he immediately understood Gao Lishi's meaning.The stubborn stone in my heart seemed to have landed safely, and I felt suddenly enlightened, and the anger in my chest was swept away for several days.

Xuanzong took a picture of the dragon case and said with a smile: "That's it. If you want to do it, do it vigorously! Come and pass on my will."

……

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

After Gao Lishi read the imperial decree, a pot exploded in the hall of the night banquet.Some of the emperor's grandchildren are happy and some are sad.

Li Tan, the king of Jianning, Li Chu, the king of Guangping, and others were all beaming with joy, clapping their hands in celebration, as if they had won the jackpot.

The three brothers Li Qiu and Li Yan, the sons of Prince Qing, were unwilling.Li Qiu is shrewd and capable, Li Yan is gentle and majestic, and they all play polo well, but compared to Li Chu and Li Tan, they are obviously a level behind.

Li Qiu couldn't help but said, "Grandpa Huang is worse than anything else, but polo. If it's poetry, let alone Li Tan, Li Chu has to be afraid of you. Isn't this obviously biased?"

Li Yan pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "Not necessarily. Although we are not as good as Li Chu and Li Tan, we are still slightly better than other emperors and grandsons. As long as we can seriously prepare for the battle and break into the top three, we will be successful!"
