As soon as Li Yuanying's idea was finished, Wei Shu and the others were very curious about what poems were written at the banquet.
Li Yuanying didn't like to go hunting with His Majesty Li Er. He felt that it was like playing with him, which was very boring, so he didn't go with him. He said with a smile: "If you want to know, you can grind the ink for me, and I will write it for you!"
Seeing his smug face, Wei Shu almost wrote "Sister Shu, come and serve me" on his face, and wanted to pinch his face. But there are other people around, Wei Shu still has to give him some face, she loves calligraphy, grinding ink is really easy for her, listening to Li Yuanying's words, she really took the inkstone and ink sticks from Huang Ying or Huang Oriole In the past, he skillfully polished Li Yuanying's ink.
Li Yuanying was even more proud, and smiled brightly at Di Renjie and the others, meaning "Look, my wife is so good, you should look for it quickly."
No one else wanted to argue with him. What an early engagement, isn't it? !
Di Renjie even gave him a blank look, who would envy the childish showing off of their two brats. He is a person with lofty aspirations, and he doesn't like to be entangled in the love of his children early like Li Yuanying!
Li Yuanying is happy, and after the music, he will write poems written by His Majesty Li Er and others to his friends. It took him a lot of effort to write all the poems silently, but this is a rough draft, so there is no need to write them very well, and his handwriting is naturally flying and dancing.
Li Yuanying wrote one, and Wei Shu and the others read one. Although they didn't attend the big banquet, they could still imagine the grand scene at that time.
After finishing the poem silently, Li Yuanying rubbed his wrists and began to comment on their poems: "To be honest, I don't think Brother Huang's poems are very good, but it seems that they are all built in the Quatengwang Pavilion and Cuiwei Palace. I still have to print it for the sake of it!"
Wei Shu read a few poems, and nodded her head rebelliously. These poems are as beautiful as they are beautiful, but they are all the same, with nothing new, let alone any lines that catch people's eyes. Just like Li Yuanying said, after reading it, there is only one feeling: they are praising!
As for how well you praise, you can't make demands.
Li Yuanying said again: "I asked you to come together a long time ago, but you didn't come. Why can't my friends come to the Tengwang Pavilion I built? Let me tell you, the old house brought a nephew from his wife's natal family, who was the same age as me. Almost, the poem is quite well written." He picked out a copy of the poem draft and passed it on to Wei Shu and the others.
This poem is written fresh and meaningful, quite interesting, and completely different from those "scene poems" with beautiful rhetoric and finely crafted just now. As expected of a young man, he hasn't been grinded into old fritters by the officialdom!
Wu Mei glanced at the signature and read: "Lu Zhaolin?"
Di Renjie also knew a lot about many aristocratic families: "Fan Yang Lu?"
Li Yuanying thought for a while, then nodded and said: "The wife of the old house seems to belong to the Lu family of Fan Yang. This Lu Zhaolin is pretty good, he is quite handsome, and he reacts quickly on the spot. Brother Huang praised him for his good poem."
Di Renjie and the others all agreed with Li Yuanying's selection of "the best player in the audience".
Li Yuanying suddenly became interested: "Why don't we go and play with him!"
Everyone has gone hunting, and it is not good for them to sit here and read poems all the time. Everyone nodded to express their desire to go. Li Yuanying asked Huang Ying and Huang Oriole to take the poem draft and put it away with the Preface to the Tengwang Pavilion in Cuiwei Palace, and took his friends to the hunting ground to play.
The adults all went to the hunting grounds to hunt, the female relatives and the younger ones who were not good at riding and shooting did not follow, but there was also entertainment. Gao Yang was very active and organized two polo teams to start playing polo.
Li Yuanying and his group walked near the polo field, and happened to see an unexpected scene: Gao Yang was sitting on a horse holding a polo club, staring blankly at the boy standing outside the field.
That young man has delicate features, and he can be seen to be a gentleman. He was holding the polo he had just picked up, and the polo was covered with a little dirt, which made people think that the ball had stained his hands!
Gao Yang was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses, a little uncomfortable, his ears turned red for no reason. She said fiercely: "My ball, return it to me."
The boy also came back to his senses, stepped forward and returned the polo to Gao Yang.
Li Yuanying recognized the young man, and ran up to him with great interest, "Brother Lu!"
The young man was Lu Zhaolin who was brought to the banquet by His Majesty Li Er's special permission Fang Xuanling just now. Seeing Li Yuanying, he greeted politely: "Your Highness."
Li Yuanying said: "I don't want to be so polite, we are of the same generation, it's good to be ordinary friends."
Lu Zhaolin heard that Lu Shi said that Li Yuanying was a lot of bad, so he was told to stay away from Li Yuanying, but when he met him now, he felt that Li Yuanying was friendly and friendly, which was quite different from what Li Yuanying said.
Gao Yang got off his horse and asked Li Yuanying: "Uncle Yao, why didn't you go hunting with Emperor Father?"
What Li Yuanying said was rebellious: "I don't want to be a companion." He doesn't like hunting at all, and he has no interest in chasing prey. No sense of accomplishment, no fun!
Meeting new friends is more important than hunting!
Li Yuanying took Lu Zhaolin to introduce him to his friends, and then introduced Di Renjie and others to Lu Zhaolin one by one.
It was only then that Lu Zhaolin realized that the bright girl who had stunned him just now was his cousin's ex-fiancee, Princess Gaoyang. The dissolution of the engagement hadn't affected her in any way, and she looked bright from the inside out, playing polo with ease and ease.
Although there was Lu Shi's warning before him, the young man could not stand the temptation of his peers, and he was pulled into the ranks of friends by Li Yuanying after a while. Seeing that Lu Zhaolin didn't go hunting, Li Yuanying said, "You don't think hunting is interesting, do you? It's too tiring! But after studying, it's good to play polo to relax. Let's go play with Gao Yang."
Except for Sizi who is weak and Li Xiang and Hengyang who are young, the rest of the people can leave the stage. Li Xiang, as the only man who stayed behind as the audience, bravely became the leader and took a group of servants to stand by. Li Yuanying waved the flag and shouted: "Yaoyao, the ball is there! The ball is there! Win them and win them!"
Gao Yang is very angry, Li Xiang is a little bastard, just cheer him up, they are his aunts, okay
Gao Yang was not someone who would easily admit defeat, so he fought Li Yuanying with all his might.
His Majesty Li Er came back from hunting, and he heard that the polo field was very lively. On the one hand, Li Xiang and Li Yuanying's people were encouraging Li Yuanying, and on the other hand, Gao Yang and his followers were defeated, also shouting loudly. It was obviously just a few kids playing polo, but they were playing polo in a big way, as if there would be a big gang fight at any moment!
Li Xiang was blushing from shouting and his neck was thick. Seeing His Majesty Li Er and his party coming, the leaders were His Majesty Li Er and his father Li Chengqian. He blushed as if someone had suddenly strangled his neck, closed his mouth, and stepped forward. His Majesty Li Er greeted you.
They are all out to play, His Majesty Li Er will not think that there is anything wrong with Li Xiang taking the lead in shouting, just ask him who has the upper hand after fighting for so long.
Li Xiang said honestly, "I don't know."
Li Yuanying played polo with a lot of coquettish maneuvers. The people watching were dazzled, and the opponent stomped their feet in anger. As for who won and who lost, no one cared. They all wanted to see what new tricks they could play. How can people on both sides yell at each other.
His Majesty Li Er saw that Li Xiang was so busy leading the crowd and shouting at each other, not even looking at the outcome, he immediately felt that this child was too clingy to Li Yuanying, maybe he would be led astray by Li Yuanying. He said: "Your voice is suitable for leading the army, and you may be able to shock people with a roar."
Li Xiang blushed in embarrassment.
Li Yuanying was also tired from playing. Hearing that there was no movement at the side, he turned his head and saw His Majesty Li Er and the others standing on the side watching. He immediately greeted his friends: "I'm tired, stop playing!" He played polo for fun , I don’t like to play for others to see!
The others got off their horses and followed Li Yuanying to greet His Majesty Li Er.
His Majesty Li Er asked Li Yuanying to take him to see the horse again.
On the way to the racecourse, Fang Xuanling asked Li Yuanying: "I heard that you promised the horse breeders that every ten good horses they raise will be distributed to them?"
Li Yuanying said: "That's right." Seeing Fang Xuanling's pained face, he immediately persuaded Fang Xuanling earnestly, "Old Fang, people can't always compare the gains and losses in front of them. How can anyone think about the horse?" The reason why they run and don’t feed the horses? They can benefit themselves, so they will try their best to raise good horses for us. Some experiences can’t be found without groping for ten or eight years. Others Not to mention, let’s just talk about papermaking. The price of paper is cheap now, but people before me have invested a lot of money in trying to reduce the cost. At the current price, I’m afraid I won’t be able to earn back even if I sell the paper for twenty years. It’s also thanks to me meeting smart people like Mei Niang and Deng Qing. So talent is very important!”
Fang Xuanling was at a loss for words.
Of course he knows that talents are important, why don't all Mingjun be thirsty for talents
However, when Bai gave the horses to these Tubo tribesmen, he was still not at ease, fearing that they would bite Datang back.
Seeing that Fang Xuanling was worried, Li Yuanying went to Fang Xuanling's side and whispered to him: "Let me tell you, Dai Ting told me that most of these people and Songtsan Gampo and Lu Dongzan have broken their families. We will give them Ma, in their hearts we are their friends and benefactors who are willing to help them when they are on the verge of desperation. The better we treat them, the more they feel that Songtsan Gampo and Lu Dongzan are nothing. You must catch Songtsan Gampo and bite them madly, and you will never join forces with Songtsan Gampo in turn. According to me, you can also quietly sell the armor and weapons of those Tang soldiers who are no longer in use!"
Although Songtsen Gampo was considered his niece and son-in-law, Li Yuanying didn't feel any guilt for attacking Tubo. He felt that Wen Cheng married too far away. According to him, let Tubo become a part of the Tang Dynasty and Songtsen Gampo a courtier of the Tang Dynasty. In this way, Wen Cheng's life will be more comfortable. If he wants to go back to Chang'an, he can go back to Chang'an. Just do whatever you want, there is no need to compromise like you are doing now.
Li Yuanying said it with a sense of peace and reason, but Fang Xuanling's scalp tingled when he heard it. He asked Li Yuanying: "Is this your idea?"
This trick was also done by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. In order to divide the grassland tribes, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty adopted the method of supporting the weak and resisting the strong. He secretly helped the weak side so that they could fight each other! Later, both Emperor Sui Yang and His Majesty Li Er used this trick secretly, but whether it was successful or not is another matter. Anyway, this trick is not new, but it is very useful if used well!
Li Yuanying said: "I didn't think about it at the time, I just felt that these people whose families were ruined were very pitiful, so I made a promise to them. After I discussed it with Dai Ting, I felt that this matter is feasible. Anyway, it's okay if people know about it." Why don't we allow Datang to be nice to people? Our Datang has always been the most lenient and friendly!"
Fang Xuanling didn't say any more.
His Majesty Li Er noticed that Li Yuanying was gone as he walked, turned his head and saw him muttering with Fang Xuanling. He beckoned Li Yuanying to follow, and asked what he and Fang Xuanling were talking about.
Li Yuanying said: "I'm talking with Lao Fang about how the Tang Dynasty should be close and neighborly."
Hearing what Li Yuanying said, Fang Xuanling almost slipped under his feet.
God damn good neighbors!
Li Yuanying also explained to His Majesty Li Er what the law of good neighborliness and good neighborliness was. The so-called close relatives means that he feels that Datang should establish a closer relationship with his niece-in-law Songtsan Gampo, such as turning Tubo into the territory of Datang. Isn't this a real family? The so-called good-neighborliness means that although these poor people around have conflicts with Songtsan Gampo and others, we have to help them or not. Their parents were either killed or their mothers were robbed. They are so innocent and pitiful. Should they be helped? So, he was discussing with the old house how to be close and neighborly!
His Majesty Li Er: "..."
