Ma Zhou quickly recovered from his brief absence. He came from a poor family, and he was different from those who pursued pleasure like Xungui, and he didn't have so many messy thoughts.
Knowing that Dai Ting has been operating in Koryo for half a year, and that he also has some arrangements in Silla, Ma Zhou once again lamented that Li Yuanying's luck is amazing. If it weren't for good luck, how could even such a young and weak servant be able to secretly arrange in Korea!
Although Goryeo is just a small country, many people in the court may not pay attention to it, but His Majesty Li Er intends to personally conquer Goryeo! His Majesty Li Er's personal conquest is not a trivial matter, it is a major event that can affect the entire Tang Dynasty!
From Ma Zhou's point of view, he also felt that if he could stop fighting, it was not to prevent the generals from gaining credit, but for the stability of the people. There are two choices given to Goryeo in the letter of credence, one is to allow them to breathe, and the other is to directly let them die completely. Yuan Gai Suwen is not a person who will subdue, and Ma Zhou is not sure he will. I will not choose to fight in the corner!
Ma Zhou only thought about it for a moment, and then told Dai Ting the content of the letter of credence. Li Yuanying came up with the idea, and Dai Ting also knew the two choices given by the court from Li Yuanying's letter. After making sure that the court didn't make too many changes to the whole plan, he felt at ease. He calmly asked Ma Zhou's opinion: "If there is going to be a civil strife in Korea, do you think it should start after the mission leaves the country, or before the mission leaves the country?"
Ma Zhou was shocked by Dai Ting.
How does this sound like "do you want porridge or noodles today"
It has only been about a year since Dai Ting sent the Queen of Silla back to China. What did he do in Goryeo? With such a dazzling appearance, did no one notice him in Goryeo
Because Dai Ting's attitude was so peaceful, Ma Zhou couldn't even think of doubting it. He thought about it seriously for a while, and expressed that he hoped to start after they left the country. If it was only Ma Zhou himself, he might choose to add fuel to the fire and force Gao Li to confess his guilt, but this time the real messenger is Li Tai, the son of His Majesty Li Er, and he can't let Li Tai make a mistake.
Dai Ting understood, and quietly left Ma Zhou's place.
Dai Ting felt a little regretful that he couldn't cheat Li Tai and take advantage of the chaos to make Li Tai suffer.
At the beginning when Li Tai spread the rumors that Li Yuanying had hooked up with the prince, and when Li Yuanying was most isolated and helpless, he was far away in Tubo and knew nothing about Li Yuanying's plight.
After learning about Li Taijiufan's past, Dai Ting blamed himself very much, thinking that he had not fulfilled his duty as a loyal servant.
If he didn't run out with all his heart, he would definitely have discovered the clues at the beginning of the rumors! You know, his freedom is tied to their little prince! Letting the little prince be wronged is the last mistake they should make!
Even though Li Yuanying never mentioned what to do with them, Dai Ting still remembered the account clearly, and if he had the chance, he would definitely bite those who tried to bully Li Yuanying. Even if they didn't succeed in bullying, they couldn't let it go easily!
It's a pity that their young prince is the softest, always wanting everyone to be well.
Li Tai was drinking ginseng wine unique to Korea, he heard that drinking this wine can prolong life, he was going to taste it, and if he thought it was good, he would bring it back and present it to his father. Now the relationship between their father and son is weak, and they can no longer hold hands and talk happily like before, but the father is still his father, and he sincerely begs his father to live a long life, so that the life of his brother will not be more difficult after he ascends the throne.
Some things are always precious after they are lost.
After drinking two cups, Li Tai felt a little hot, so he ordered someone to open the window to get some air. Unexpectedly, as soon as the window opened, he saw a beautiful figure walking by the window.
Xu Shi noticed his gaze, the figure stopped and turned to look in his direction.
Li Tai's warm body turned cold for no reason, and he felt like he was being targeted by a poisonous snake. He looked carefully again, but saw that the figure had disappeared, as if it had never appeared before.
Li Tai's heart was pounding, but he didn't want to tell others that he had a chill down his spine because of a look in his eyes. He is the dignified Prince of the Tang Dynasty, the son of His Majesty Li Er, and he is not afraid of the rebellious minister of Gaoli who killed his own monarch. How could he be afraid of such a guy of unknown origin! Judging by that person's age, he might not be a weak crown!
Li Tai took two sips to subdue his shock, thinking back to the look he met just now, somehow he felt a little familiar. When he had dinner with Ma Zhou, he learned the news of Dai Ting's visit from Ma Zhou.
Li Tai remembered.
This Dai Ting is Li Yuanying's running dog!
With Dai Ting's appearance, no one should have noticed him, but Dai Ting has the ability to make people invisible to him, even if he has been by Li Yuanying's side since childhood, no one pays much attention to him. Until Li Yuanying sent him to take people to Gaochang!
At that time, Li Tai wanted to fight for the position of crown prince, and there were many places where he needed talents and finances, so he naturally inquired clearly about the fact that Li Yuanying sent people to follow Hou Junji to make a fortune—he even knew more about Dai Ting's leadership than Li Yuanying himself. How many goodies to come back!
Later, Dai Ting helped Li Yuanying go to Tubo to sell tea, and Li Tai counted the tea tax collected by the court to calculate how much Li Yuanying earned, and he was even more jealous.
How could Li Yuanying earn so much money by casually sending out the servants around him!
However, Dai Ting is loyal to Li Yuanying, no matter how many things he has done and how many achievements he has made, as long as he returns to Chang'an, he will always respectfully serve Li Yuanying and be Li Yuanying's most loyal dog!
Li Tai's face became numb when he learned about Dai Ting's actions in Korea. He didn't envy Li Yuanying at all for having such a talent in his hands, really, he didn't envy him at all!
God damn it, why didn't such a talent fall into his hands, but let Li Yuanying pick it up? !
Li Tai angrily scolded God for the injustice, and finally chose to wander around in the King's Capital of Korea to see what else he could take back and dedicate to His Majesty Li Er. No matter how much he hated Li Yuanying, what could he do? If he dared to do something small to harm Li Yuanying, the mad dog raised by Li Yuanying would jump up and bite him to death!
Goryeo is so far away from Chang'an, he doesn't want to die in this poor and small country!
The tough attitude shown by the envoys of the Tang Dynasty made the king of Goryeo tremble with fear and the courtiers of Goryeo. Fight against the Great Tang Master!
Yuan Gai Suwen killed himself and seized power, and lived a high-spirited life. He had never been questioned in turn like this.
Datang is indeed powerful, but Chang'an is far away, and the frontier army stationed near Liaodong is not very strong, Yuan Gai Suwen is actually not too worried that Datang will really attack. Even if they do come over, wouldn't it be enough to just surrender
There are few people in the Tang Dynasty, so I don't believe that the Tang Dynasty can really let people move to Korea to settle down! Therefore, Yuan Gai Suwen has nothing to fear in his heart, let him fight if the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty want to fight, surrender if they have to surrender, and everything will be as usual after the battle!
It's a pity that there are too few people who can see this fact clearly, and they are all overwhelmed by Datang's rare rudeness!
Yuan Gai Suwen was filled with anger when he thought of Li Tai's proud attitude. This prince of the Tang Dynasty is only capable of reincarnation. If this guy was born in Korea, he wouldn't even be worthy to lift his boots!
However, there has been a faint chaos in the country recently. He killed several groups of thieves who clamored to "put order out of the chaos". As a result, not only did it not have a deterrent effect, but it also aroused the anger of many people. If this domineering Datang Mission is not sent away as soon as possible, there may be some troubles!
If someone jumps over the wall in a hurry to attack Li Tai, it will really be over. Li Tai is the prince born of His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun!
Yuan Gai Su Wen made a decision in his heart.
On the second day, Yuangai Suwen asked someone to draft a letter of credence, expressing earnestly that Goryeo realized his mistake, and immediately issued an order for people to evacuate from Silla City, and resolutely did not repeat it again.
After reading the Guoshu, Li Tai critically asked Yuan Gai Suwen to add a clause of "what if he commits the crime again".
After Yuan Gai Suwen asked someone to add it, he said that Yuan Gai Suwen's surname collided with his grandfather's name taboo, and he asked Yuan Gai Suwen to change his surname casually, otherwise Yuan Gai had better not appear in the national certificate. The name Su Wen! Originally it was a national book, but it would be done if it was signed by King Goryeo. What drama did you, Yuan Gai Suwen, add to yourself!
Ma Zhou had to admit that Li Tai's arrogance was usually quite rude and disrespectful, but it was very good when used on the enemy, and it made people feel refreshed!
Li Tai vented his evil fire on Yuan Gai Su Wen's head. Regardless of Yuan Gai Su Wen's mood, he patted his ass and left the royal capital of Korea with the re-drafted Guoshu. No matter how full Yuan Gai Su Wen's hatred is, he will never come to this place where birds don't lay eggs! Who cares if you hate it or not, bah!
…
Li Tai left the border of Goryeo, and there was chaos inside Goryeo. I don’t know who spread the credential written by Yuan Gai Suwen. At the same time, some people secretly spread that Yuan Gai Suwen bowed his knees in front of the envoys of the Tang Dynasty and betrayed the country. Honorable performance.
This kind of dissemination is not only a word of mouth, but also a picture drawn by someone! In that picture, their majestic Mo Lizhi servilely presented the letter of credence to the envoy of the Tang Dynasty with both hands!
Such paintings are silently pasted in the streets and alleys!
No matter how many rumors spread, the impact of seeing the picture was not strong.
In addition, there are many songs that quietly arise in various places and are sung by children. They didn't sing about anything bad, but how peaceful and beautiful their life used to be.
People's lives are hard, so we can't let them have a thought, right? It is especially easy for people to beautify the past when they are in a desperate situation. Many people stopped to listen to the touching nursery rhymes while walking on the road, and shed tears!
That's right, before Yuan Gai Suwen did not go to war, how happy their life was!
As the words and phrases in the letter of credence spread more and more, the people of Goryeo gradually believed that Yuangai Suwen was going to cede land and pay compensation, and used Goryeo's cities and people's taxes to curry favor with the Tang Dynasty.
Soon, many people had a brand new impression of Yuan Gai Suwen——
Traitor!
Yuan Gai Suwen was furious, and ordered people to search for suspicious people from house to house, and cut up a group of rebels alive as an example to others.
He is a traitor
He is the hero of Goryeo!
It was he who expanded the territory of Koryo!
Damn people from Tang Dynasty are so despicable!
It's really unreasonable!
If he had known this before, he should have directly killed that proud prince of Tang Dynasty, and fought to the death with Datang!
It's really a step back, step by step, no matter how difficult it is to move forward!
…
It was the end of the year, and Li Yuanying hadn't known what had happened to Goryeo yet. He was wearing the new clothes Liu Baolin made for him, and was preparing to deliver a New Year speech to the people.
This was the first time for Li Yuanying to celebrate the new year outside the palace, and it was also the first time that he made his own decisions. He was full of unconcealable excitement.
It is reasonable to say that only the first day of the first lunar month and the Lantern Festival are under curfew, but Li Yuanying thought about such a happy day, how could he only have fun with the people for two days? Li Yuanying announced on the spot that there will be a curfew throughout the first month, and unmarried men and women can not only meet each other on the Lantern Festival, but also come out to see each other throughout the first month!
Li Yuanying had already asked someone to push down a portion of the western city wall, and built a wide street from the palace to the lake. He also asked people to decorate the trees along the bank with lanterns, making the entire lakeside as bright as day.
For the first time, the people of Tengzhou discovered that the big lake in the western suburbs is so beautiful and the scenery along the coast is so good! Some quick-witted shopkeepers and prostitutes have already taken up good positions early, selling goods along the way, and will never make any tourists feel deserted.
This lively and beautiful place is really a good place for young men and women to meet up!
The folk customs of the Tang Dynasty are open. Ordinary people allow young men and women to see each other before getting married. After all, getting married is a lifetime thing, and it is difficult to have a chance to regret it, so everyone understands! As long as they are in heat and polite, and there is no scandal, most people allow them to make contact first.
Where there is a lively place, there is naturally Li Yuanying. Although he disliked that the time in Tengzhou was too short and he did not completely transform the big lake into what he wanted, he was already satisfied that so many people came to play for him. Surrounded by his friends, he climbed onto the high platform built near the water and delivered a New Year speech to the people. His voice spread far and wide. In the past year, we have become more energetic, and everyone has worked together to make Tengzhou better and better!
What Li Yuanying said was lacking in literary style and was all spoken in plain language, but the common people listened with great interest and cheered him loudly from time to time. He had never been flattered like this before, and suddenly his tail was raised high, and he promised the people with joy that everyone would eat the most delicious rice, the fattest meat, and the sweetest melon, so that everyone could eat the most fragrant rice, the fattest meat, and the sweetest melon. Literacy and counting reading!
Li Yuanying said loudly: "Even if it is the most stupid person in Tengzhou, he must know how to write his name when he goes outside, and he must be able to stand upright and be a man! When we go out of Tengzhou, everyone should be able to proudly tell others that they are People from Tengzhou; we walked out of Datang, everyone should be able to proudly tell others that they are from Datang! Everyone in Datang should be able to speak the official dialect of Datang and recognize the characters of Datang!"
The people's hearts were agitated when they heard it.
Although they may never have the chance to leave their homeland in their entire lives, they may not be able to become famous in their entire lives, but they are also human beings, and they also want to be as Li Yuanying said, no matter where they go or who they meet, they can face it with their heads held high. .
Even if Mandarin is not easy to learn, even if they can read and count, it is something that smart people have the opportunity to touch, but His Royal Highness Teng said let them learn, they are willing to learn, no matter how difficult it is!
Who is willing to not even write their own name for the rest of their lives
No one will be reconciled!
Wei Shu stared fixedly at Li Yuanying who was standing in front of him. He may not have great talent or lofty ambitions, but he will always be the most dazzling existence.
Always bright as a star.
From the first day they met, she knew he was such a person.
The author has something to say:
Little Prince: Today is also a day for brainwashing people!
