bastard seizes tang

Chapter 346
In front of the two armies, swords have no eyes, and the horses that accompany the soldiers are very important. It can even be said that in many cases, the horses are the second life of the soldiers, so the best horses are the soldiers. Still above the blade.

Li Ke is also a member of the army. Like Li Shimin, he is addicted to horses. When he saw the horse that was dragged into the garden, all his attention was immediately attracted.

The war horse was pulled into the garden, as if approaching like a cloud of snow-white clouds, it immediately attracted the attention of Li Shimin and all the military officials including Li Ke.

Li Shimin was born in the army. He is a good horse and likes to hunt. He also tames some hawks and birds on weekdays, but compared with the steed in front of him, the mountain hawks he keeps in the palace are nothing.

"The horse's head is tall and handsome, its eyes are like a bell, its spine is as strong as a general's, its belly is as wide as a city, its tail is like a shooting star, its hooves are round and straight, its muscles and bones are well-proportioned, and its posture is good. Horses." Li Ke looked at the group of snow-white horses, his eyes lit up, and he praised in a low voice.

Li Ke's state is also the state of all the military officials present. Most of them looked at the steed in front of them, but Wu Meiniang, who was sitting next to Li Ke, was quite puzzled.

She was sitting beside him with a pretty woman, who was also his future Princess Chu, and he never even took a second look, but stared at a horse so carefully and with such ecstasy.

After a while, Wu Meiniang saw that Li Ke's eyes were still on the horse, so she said coquettishly, "Your Highness, is this horse really so beautiful?"

Li Ke's attention was attracted by this rare horse, and he didn't think much about Wu Meiniang's words, and replied without thinking: "That's natural. This horse has a beautiful figure and a good posture. It's really rare to see."

Wu Meiniang listened, Li Ke responded to her like this, somehow there was a trace of jealousy in her heart, she looked at the huge snow-white monster in front of her, she didn't know where the beauty was, she just pushed Li Ke, bit her lip Asked: "Could it be that this horse is more beautiful than Mei Niang?"

Wu Meiniang's speech is exactly the appearance of a young child in love, and she is blaming her lover for neglecting a beautiful woman.

Li Keyuan didn't think much about it, but after hearing Wu Meiniang's words, he didn't know what she was thinking. He immediately looked away, looked at Wu Meiniang, and smiled quickly: "Naturally, Meiniang is beautiful, and Meiniang is beautiful. The peony in the middle is not comparable to others."

Wu Meiniang was only angry for a while, so she asked Li Ke these words. She didn't expect Li Ke to praise her like this. This was the first time Li Ke praised her for her beauty in person.

Meeting Li Ke's gaze, Wu Meiniang blushed suddenly and lowered her head unconsciously.

Li Ke looked at Wu Meiniang's shy look, and smiled on his face, he couldn't help feeling very amused, it turned out that Wu Meiniang, who was generous and generous in front of others, had such an appearance.

Wu Meiniang lowered her head for a while, and found that Li Ke was not staring at her anymore, so she raised her head, pretending to be completely fine.

Wu Meiniang looked at Dadu She who was standing in the banquet, she didn't know if she was really interested, or if she was just trying to divert the conversation, Wu Meiniang asked Li Ke: "Your Highness knows the prince of Xue Yantuo, he seems quite familiar with his appearance. Very proud."

Li Ke nodded, smiled lightly, and replied, "Da Du She is the eldest son of Xue Yantuo Barbarian Khan, and he has dealt with this king before."

Wu Meiniang said: "According to His Highness, it seems that he is quite disliked by this person."

Li Ke said: "This man is aggressive by nature, and he is an ambitious man. When Yao Shigong went to the north, Dadushi also helped Xue Yantuo's pioneer go south. After he finished his work, he wanted to take the Nuozhenshui area as his own, as Xue Yantuo's land."

Wu Meiniang didn't know about military affairs, and she didn't even know where Nuo Zhenshui was, but Li Ke's words aroused her interest, and she asked, "Then, did Nuo Zhenshui ever ask him to take it?"

Li Ke said with a smile: "Of course not. A hundred miles to the north of Yinshan Mountain, not giving up an inch of land, is my Datang Beice. Nuozhenshui is close to the northern foot of Yinshan Mountain. It is an important place in the north. The water and grass are fertile. How can it be left in Zi The enemy. At that time, the king was in the army, and Yao Shigong also discussed the matter with the king. After the discussion, he ordered someone to report to the father, and at the same time wrote a letter to Li Ji, who was on the northern line, to expel Dadu from the army. Yinshan."

Wu Meiniang said: "In this case, His Highness has already had a feud with him."

A stern look flashed in Li Ke's eyes, and he said coldly: "It's not just between me and him. Xue Yantuo has a lot of ambitious people, but they are overconfident. There will be a battle between Datang and Xue Yantuo sooner or later. If there is a chance, this king I would like to personally raise troops to go north, and then settle in Mobei."

Wu Meiniang looked at Li Ke's eyes, she could feel the murderous intent in Li Ke's words, and a coldness flashed across her back unconsciously, but for some reason, perhaps because she was about to become his wife, she felt the chill on her back. The chill slowly dissipated from her body, not only did she not feel any discomfort at all, on the contrary, she gave out a kind of exclamation that a man should be so.

Li Ke and Wu Meiniang were talking, and the snow-white war horse had already been dragged into the garden by five house slaves set up by Dadu.

"Report to Your Majesty, this horse is the divine steed presented by foreign ministers to His Majesty." Da Du She pointed at the horse and said to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin is a good horse, and he is good at looking after horses. All the six steeds he rides are famous horses in the world. When Li Shimin takes a look at the horses in front of him, he knows that they are extraordinary, and they are even better than his six steeds.

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed a rare horse."

Hearing this, Dadushe said with a smile on his face: "This horse comes from the pasture at the foot of Xue Yantuo Yudujun Mountain. It has a tiger's back and a keel, and its roar shakes the clouds. It is unique even on the grassland. It's just that this horse is wild and unruly, and ordinary people ride it No, it took me a lot of effort to send this horse to Chang'an under the order of my father Khan."

Li Shimin also trained horses when he was young, especially such a steed horse is even more difficult to tame, and it would take a lot of work to bring it from Xue Yantuo all the way to Chang'an.

Li Shimin said: "It's really not easy for the prince to send such a steed to Chang'an. It's been a hard journey."

Dadu said: "It's not only this horse that can be appreciated by Your Majesty, but also my Xue Yantuo's honor. However, this horse has a peculiarity, which is quite different from ordinary horses. Your Majesty needs to know about it."

Li Shimin asked in bewilderment: "Oh? But I don't know what is so strange?"

Dadu replied: "This horse grows on Yudujun Mountain, at the foot of Yating. It is the king of my Xue Yantuo's ten thousand horses. It is rare to meet in a hundred years. It understands human nature. Whoever can subdue it will be its master. Thirty years ago, I The horse that Xue Yantuo Yexi Khan rode was the same as this horse, and after the Yexi Khan died, the Khan's horse also died of hunger strike, and no one else was allowed to surrender."

Hearing this, Li Shimin said with a smile: "There is such a thing. In this way, if I want to get this horse, I have to surrender myself, and I can't pretend to be someone else?"

Dadu replied: "Exactly."

Don't wait for Li Shimin to open his mouth, but Wei Wang Li Tai who was sitting in the banquet couldn't sit still.

Li Tai hurriedly stood up and shouted: "Great design, you are so courageous, this horse is wild and hard to tame, how can you ride it easily, what kind of heart do you want Father to train the horse himself?"

As soon as Li Tai's words came out, the meeting immediately became noisy, and the voices of scolding were endless, all of which were accusing Dadu of setting up false statements.

However, Dadu set up to face the criticism from the court, not only did he not show any fear on his face, on the contrary, he showed a smile, and said to Li Tai: "The crimes mentioned by the king of Wei, the foreign ministers will not dare to take. If your highness thinks that the foreign ministers' words are wrong All right, the foreign minister will just pretend that he has never offered this horse, take it back and bring it back to Xue Yantuo."

Dadu’s words seem to be a step back, but they are quite meaningful. If he, Xue Yantuo’s envoy, brought a horse from thousands of miles to Chang’an and presented it to the Tang Emperor, the Tang Emperor didn’t even have the courage to test the horse. Where is Tian Khan's face?
