Ji Tang

Chapter 325 Meet Li Yuan

"Hurry and report to Your Majesty, and ask Marquis Jisong to see you."

Ji Song came to Li Yuan's palace holding an exquisite wooden box and a wooden plate in his hands and said to the guards outside.

"Master Hou, wait a moment!"

This guard obviously knew Ji Song, and may have been notified, but did not question Ji Song.

No wonder, who doesn't know that Li Yuan was forced to step down by Li Shimin? Ordinary people can't hide in time, so who would come forward alive?
Before coming, he had already gone to the emperor to ask for a warrant. Li Shimin didn't know what he thought, but he just hesitated and agreed.

So, Ji Song came with a gift. He originally wanted to take You Ning with him, but when he thought about it, Li Yuan didn't know what his attitude was. If he came rashly, something might happen.

After thinking about it, he finally came to explore the way by himself. If Li Yuan didn't have any ideas, he would bring him with him next time.

Even ordinary people would have some thoughts when they suddenly have multiple granddaughters who are not their biological children, let alone Li Yuan, the most noble person in the Tang Dynasty?

Every move of the royal family has a specific purpose. The eldest grandson accepted You Ning as his adopted daughter. Everyone knew the purpose of this, it was just to win over Ji Song.

"Your Majesty, please invite the Marquis to come in!"

After a while, a eunuch came out. Ji Song didn't recognize him. He said that he was invited by the Supreme Emperor.

Ji Song didn't waste any time, handed the things to the eunuch, and then followed him in.

Don't think that Ji Song is deeply loved by the emperor, but there are still rules that should be in place. No matter what is in Ji Song's hand, what should be checked must still be checked.

Ji Song obviously knew about it, and took the initiative to hand it over without waiting for anyone to ask. It was given to Li Yuan anyway, so it didn't matter.

Li Yuan did not live on the Longshou Plain outside the imperial city like later generations, but stayed in the Wude Hall of the imperial palace. He does not know why.

At the same time, the relationship with the emperor Li Shimin was not as intense as in later generations. After Jie Li was captured, he took the initiative to show up, dance with Li Shimin, and said that it was right to hand the throne to Li Shimin.

This reconciliation between father and son, at least on the surface, silenced some of the voices that had been present in the court.

When Ji Song walked into the hall, he was speechless. From a distance, he could hear the sounds of warblers and swallows coming from inside, as well as Li Yuan's wanton laughter.

I don’t know how Li Shimin came up with the idea of ​​stuffing beauties into his father’s house every once in a while, and changing the batch every once in a while. This is nothing more than a devil in sex, right?

With Li Yuan's body, if he continues like this, he probably won't live for a few more years.

The eunuch who came in with Ji Song obviously knew what was going on inside, but was not surprised at all. He asked Ji Song to wait outside while he went into the back hall to report.

Ji Song didn't dare to walk around. If he happened to encounter Li Yuan's embarrassment, he would definitely not be able to bear it. Even if he didn't do anything to him, he would still be disgusted.

After a while, the sounds inside gradually dissipated, which made Ji Song sigh in relief. He was glad that he didn't bring You Ning with him.

"Okay, Marquis, come with your servants. Your Majesty is waiting for the Marquis inside!"

Under his leadership, Ji Song finally met Li Yuan, but when he saw his face, although he was prepared, he was still shocked.

Seeing Li Yuan's half-smiling look, Ji Song quickly restrained himself and saluted quickly: "Good Lord Ji Song, pay your respects to the Supreme Emperor!"

But what surprised Ji Song was that Li Yuan did not let Ji Song get up immediately. Instead, he came to Ji Song's side and circled around him twice, as if observing him.

Just when Ji Song was impatient to wait, Li Yuan slowly said: "Get up!"

Ji Song raised his head and was a little surprised to see Li Yuan looking old and hunched over! "This should be our second meeting, right?" Li Yuan said.

Ji Song quickly replied: "The Emperor has a good memory. The first time I saw you was on the Lantern Festival in the eighth year of Wude, and you forced the boy to compose a poem on the spot!"

"Hahahaha!"

Li Yuan laughed loudly when he heard Ji Song's playful words.

"You kid still holds a grudge? Don't you even think about it. If I hadn't forced you, you would have been able to make such a famous saying as 'Looking back at dusk, that person is in the dim light'?"

"So, I have a share of the credit for your literary name. You kid got the advantage and acted like a good boy."

However, Ji Song was not trapped by Li Yuan, but smiled and said: "What you said is wrong. The article is made by nature, and it was obtained by chance. It should be God who borrowed the boy's mouth to say it, and the Supreme Emperor has What does it have to do with the boy?"

Li Yuan was stunned when he heard it, and then he started laughing, even to the point of crying. It wasn't until a while later that he stopped.

"I finally know why the emperor likes you. It's interesting, interesting!"

After resting for a while, Li Yuan was obviously a little depressed. What did he think of again?
"I heard that the queen accepted your fiancée as her adopted daughter?" Li Yuan asked.

Chang Sun specifically told him about this and the reason for doing so. After Li Yuan found out, he did not stop him and was even happy to see it happen.

Even in the deep palace, he had heard of Ji Song's name from time to time. This time he defeated the Turks and captured Jie Li alive, which made him have a good impression of Ji Song.

When the Tang Dynasty was founded, it had submitted to the Turks and borrowed their power, but this was their stain after all. Ji Song could wash it away for them, and he couldn't be happier.

"The Empress is so kind to me, and Ziyi is so grateful. Why don't I come to visit your grandfather today on behalf of my fiancée?" Ji Song said with a smile.

Li Yuan was stunned when he heard this, then he pointed at Ji Song and scolded with a smile: "You are so smart, no wonder you can achieve such a big name. If you are not too young, a duke is indispensable."

"Don't do it. This Marquis boy thinks it's good. It's not too big, not too small, and it doesn't attract anyone's attention. It's a good place to hang out and wait for death."

"If you insist on rewarding me, just give me more land. Eighteen thousand acres, I won't be picky." Ji Song said with a shy face.

"Hahahaha!"

Li Yuan felt that he had not smiled as much as he did today in all these years. Looking at Ji Song's young face, he became more and more pleasing to the eye.

"What did Li Shimin think? Why didn't you catch such a good boy? Go and tell the emperor that if he doesn't have a suitable daughter, I have plenty of daughters. Where can I find such a good son-in-law?"

Li Yuan said to the eunuch beside him.

"This" the eunuch was embarrassed for a while. Did you do this?
"What? Now I can't control you anymore?" Li Yuan was furious.

The eunuch quickly knelt down and bowed his head.

"Don't make things difficult for him. I'm going to get married soon. If you do this, I'll have no choice but to die to thank the world." Ji Song said with a smile.

Li Yuan suddenly turned to look at Ji Song. Ji Song smiled and looked directly at Li Yuan.

"Alas! It's a pity!"

Li Yuan withdrew his gaze and did not mention this matter again.
