Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 41 Drilling, or Drilling (1)

On February 7th of the second year of Linde, the imperial list was released. Seven Jinshi were selected, more than [-] Mingjing, and King Luo Bin, who is famous for his poems all over the world, was also listed among them, but he ranked first from the bottom. As soon as the list was released, There were many people in the capital who were in an uproar, and there were not a few who questioned the fairness of selecting scholars. However, King Luo Bin himself was calm, but when he asked questions, he excused his poor performance, and things were smooth. , was awarded the post of Fengli Lang by the Ministry of Rites, with a rank of nine ranks.

On February [-]th of the second year of Linde, the inner court issued an imperial edict stating that King Lu Li Xian would become a vassal in Qizhou. This was the first time since the founding of the Tang Dynasty that a legitimate son without fault would become a vassal. Especially in the case of Li Xiangang's imperial edict, he became famous. , Just like at the height of the sun, when this edict came out, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were astonished. However, although the matter involved the Tian family, although the ministers and workers had doubts, no one dared to speak out about it, and Li Xian fell out of favor for a while. Rumors abounded.

Obviously, for Li Xian who wanted to participate in the overall situation of the court as soon as possible, this imperial edict was a blow to the head, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a sap. When I thought that Li Xian would definitely make a fuss about this matter, unexpectedly, Li Xian didn't complain a word. After accepting the imperial edict calmly, he quietly prepared the affairs of the vassal at the mansion. The appearance made all the ministers puzzled, and the general favorability of Li Xianneng also increased a lot because of this.

On February 22nd of the second year of Linde, perhaps because he was afraid of seeing Li Xian's speech, or perhaps because he was tired of staying in Chang'an City, Gaozong suddenly issued an edict ordering Luoyang to be hunted in the east, and Prince Li Hong was kept in prison in Beijing. Kingdom, soon, without waiting for Li Xian to go to Qizhou to become a vassal, the Empress Wu and Princess Taiping, who had just turned two months, and a group of people drove eastward in a mighty manner. Suspicion, at least in Li Xian's view.

It's okay to leave, so as not to make a fuss!Although Li Xian was unwilling to be reconciled to Li Xian's "being" in every possible way, there was nothing to do. He could only "send off with tears" for a while. As for the departure of Gaozong and Empress Wu, Li Xian felt even a little bit of attachment in his heart. Of course, the effort on the surface is very good, but my heart is full of the pleasure of being relieved. Before Gaozong left, I don’t know whether he really forgot or did it on purpose, but he didn’t He made any arrangements for Li Xian, let alone told him to assist the prince in governing. In this way, Li Xian really became an idle prince. I feel aggrieved, but Li Xian is different. He doesn't intend to get into trouble with the crown prince, and he doesn't intend to randomly participate in the affairs of the court when the foundation is unstable. Lu, there is no need to be careful about the methods of Empress Wu. Li Xian has no reason to be dissatisfied. Obviously, the butterfly wings that Li Xian agitated had initially changed the direction of history. It was a good start for the future, and it gave Li Xian the confidence and courage to change his own destiny.

Having confidence and courage is certainly a good thing, but after all, that thing can't be eaten as food. There is still a long way to go, and there is still a long way to go. Li Xian knows this truth very well, no, let's go away Li Xian, a matter that has been delayed for a long time has to be brought up on the agenda - martial arts!
The reason why Li Xian intends to practice martial arts is that he really didn't think much about how to gallop on the battlefield in the future. He just intends to use it as a coat to avoid suspicion. Li Xian can be satisfied with "The Art of War of the Duke of Wei", but it is a pity that Li Boyao is obviously not very willing to cooperate with Li Xian's ideas, making excuses one after another, and it has been delayed for more than half a month, and he has not seen Li Boyao When Gao Zong was still there, Li Xian really didn't want to push him too hard, so he could only let him go. Now that Gao Zong left, Li Xian didn't want to drag him down endlessly. As soon as Li Xian was sent away, Li Xian turned around and sent Gao Miao with a gift to kill the dignitaries of the Wei Guo Gong Mansion. He promised to come and give advice, but Li Xian was so excited, no, he got up before dawn, washed up casually, and didn't even care about breakfast, so he hurriedly changed into his martial arts outfit .

"How is it? Does Gu look like a general?"

Li Xian was wearing a bright silver soft armor, covered with a snow-white cloak, wearing white fox fur boots, wearing a hero's crown, with two long pheasant tails inserted on the left and right, shaking his majesty when he turned around. The posture of the young general in the robe, of course, seems to be a little shorter, and his face is also a little immature. A general is a general, but he is just on the stage. Li Xian, who feels so good about himself, walks around the big bronze mirror But wandering around vigorously, looking at this, looking at that, turning around in a very beautiful circle, with a look of complacency.

"Like, really like, if His Highness had another silver gun, it would be even better."

Seeing Li Xian intoxicated there, all the little maids were amused. When Li Xian asked a question, Cui Liu, the fastest-talking one, couldn't help but answer, and then immediately laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist. Seeing this, the other maids were stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed and leaned back.

silver gun?Damn it, you damn girl, wait, I'm sure you'll be the first to fuck!Li Xian was looking at his complacency, when he heard that Cui Liu's words didn't taste right, he just thought about it, and immediately woke up, dare this girl is saying that Li Xian has a silver-like gun head, staring with her eyes, and holding it out. He assumed the posture of the prince, as if he was ready to go crazy, but unexpectedly, the maids laughed even more vigorously when this posture was put on, making Li Xian lose his temper. Who told him to spoil these maids in the past Then, when it was time to put on airs, it was obvious that no one cared about him, so he had no choice but to scratch his head with a wry smile, and simply laughed loudly, and the room was full of cheers for a while.

"Your Highness, General Li has arrived."

Just as the room was full of people laughing happily, Gao Miao trotted all the way into the door, ignoring how the maidservants were making noise, he leaned in front of Li Xian, bowed, and rushed to report.

"Oh? Alright, hurry up, I'll meet Gu right now."

Hearing that Li Boyao really came, Li Xian didn't care about messing around with the maids anymore, he waved his hand hurriedly, gave an order and then left to the front yard.

"Your Highness, General Li has already arrived at the small school grounds, but he just sent a servant to report that His Highness should move." Seeing that Li Xian was about to leave, Gao Miao hurriedly explained.

"Ok?"

According to the pattern, every prince's mansion has a small school yard, which is not only used for the exercise of the guards of the mansion, but also has another function, which is to play polo. Li Xian's Zhou mansion is no exception. However, Li Xian has always lacked interest in polo, and he has not yet started practicing equestrianism, so he has never wandered there at all. He just knows that the small school field is located on the west side of the palace. As for things that are too thin, Li Xian is He had no idea at all, even Li Xian didn't know how to go to the small school, so he couldn't figure out how Li Boyao came to the small school without entering the palace, and he was stunned for a moment without reacting.

"Your Highness, General Li has been here for a long time, look..."

Seeing that Li Xian didn't respond for a long time, Gao Miao had no choice but to remind him again.

"Go, go to the small school grounds!"

Everyone has arrived, so I have to see him. Although he was dissatisfied with Li Boyao's behavior of not entering the mansion, Li Xian didn't say anything about it. He just waved his hand and signaled Gao Miao to lead the way, leading a group of personal guards , The maids went to the small school yard.

The small school yard is actually not small, with a total area of ​​nearly [-] mu. Its size is only slightly smaller than the South School Field used by the South Yamen. One end of it is connected to the west wall of the palace, and there is a small gate. It's similar, as for the north and the south, each has its own gate, when Li Xian arrived, there were already quite a few guards and generals standing in the small school grounds, and Xiao Yan, the royal army's army, was accompanying Li Boyao, as if they were discussing something serious.

"See Your Highness!"

When all the guards and generals saw Li Xian leading the people out from the west gate, they all went up to greet them, saluted and greeted each other, but Li Boyao stood still.

"Free, all free."

Li Xian raised his hand with a smile, signaling to the generals to excuse him, then strode up to Li Boyao, bowed, and said politely: "Xiao Wang has seen General Li."

"Don't dare, is Your Highness trying to get on the stage?" Li Boyao returned the gift solemnly, but the words in his mouth made Li Xian frown.

"This...hehe, General Li was joking. Xiao Wang is here to ask General Li for advice." Hearing Li Boyao's harsh words, Li Xian couldn't help feeling angry, but he didn't show it on his face, but accompanied him. The smiling face explained.

"Since Your Highness wants to learn martial arts, I dare not refuse to teach you. There is only one thing I would like to ask your Highness to forgive me. I am harsh by nature. If Your Highness can't bear it, please forgive me." Li Boyao did not hesitate to teach Li Xian With a smile on his face and a little fake speech, he nodded indifferently, and said neither humble nor humble.

Well, I know it's not that convenient, but it's okay, just let it go!Li Xian has known for a long time that Li Boyao actually doesn't want to teach him, and he will definitely find some difficult things so that he can retreat. Seeing Li Boyao's statement at this time, he didn't mind too much, and smiled slightly: "General Li Don't worry, since Xiao Wang is determined to practice martial arts to strengthen his body, he will naturally listen to the general's teachings, and if the general has any advice, please speak frankly, Xiao Wang will follow it without any mistakes."

"Okay then, please Your Highness take off this glamorous outfit first, and change into a bunt before you come back." Li Xian expressed his attitude bluntly, and Li Boyao answered even more bluntly, until he heard the black lines all over Li Xian's forehead frantically.

Bright outfit?Let me go, okay, why don't you just change your clothes, let's go, see what you can do to make things difficult!Li Xian muttered non-stop in his stomach, but he still had a bright smile on his face. He nodded and said, "The general taught you well. Let Xiao Wang go to change clothes now. Please wait a moment, general."

"En." Li Boyao said noncommittally, although the expression on his face was still indifferent, but there was a different emotion in his eyes.

"The general invited me, and Xiao Wang will come back as soon as he goes."

What Li Xian is best at is observing words and expressions. Although the strangeness in Li Boyao's eyes flashed quickly, he couldn't hide it from Li Xian. Leading a group of maids back to the room to change clothes without mentioning it.
