"Ahem!" Li Shimin coughed twice and turned off the topic: "In three days it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. You two will enter the palace together."
With a trace of doubt on Li Kuan's frustrated face, he asked, "The emperor, what are we doing in the palace?"
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the Chinese military and military officials will rest at home for three days. The curfew in Chang'an City will also be lifted. Let us have fun with the people!" Li Shimin stared at Li Kuan and said solemnly: "On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace is set up. A banquet for civil and military officials to welcome the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Li Kuan said: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for the emperor to celebrate with the civil and military officials, so the ministers will not come to join in the fun."
"You, you must come!" Li Shimin was angry again. He is the king of a country. When banqueting officials need to discuss with others and issue an edict, who dares not come? However, this Li Kuan didn't know each other at all. Not only did he say he didn't want to come in front of him, it made Li Shimin very angry.
Seeing Li Shimin's furious anger, Li Kuan rekindled hope, and he bowed back and said, "Chen, I really don't have time to come. The emperor and hundreds of officials will celebrate national affairs together. Apart from eating, drinking, and having fun, I really haven't That ability. Besides, the curfew has been lifted, and the streets and alleys of Chang'an City must be very lively. Wouldn't it be nice to see women with good looks?"
Li Shimin laughed in anger and said, "Ha ha! A pretty woman?"
Li Kuan nodded solemnly, and said: "Think about that beautiful figure, beautiful melon-seeded face, and gentle personality. She is definitely a rare good woman. It happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, and she will definitely go out for fun. This is a rare opportunity. Please also ask the emperor to allow his ministers not to enter the palace that day!"
"Asshole thing!" Li Shimin flushed, his veins violently violently, and he roared: "You really can't support the wall with mud, it's just a rubbish!"
"What the emperor said is extremely true!" Li Kuan was not ashamed, but rather proud. He frankly admitted that he was a waste matter, and again proposed not to enter the palace for a banquet. Li Shimin was about to say what Li Kuan hoped. , Gonggong Wu interjected again: "His Royal Highness, you are the prince. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion. How can you be absent as a courtier?" New 81 Chinese website updated the fastest mobile terminal: https:/
Li Kuan was depressed. It was okay for Duke Wu to not speak. He shattered his dream as soon as he opened his mouth. He glanced sadly at Duke Wu, then looked up and saw the furious Li Shimin calm down, and sighed in his heart: "Another opportunity wasted! !..."
Repeatedly stimulated Li Shimin with words, expecting him to be driven back to Jingzhou, even if he was embarrassed. However, every time it was Wu Gonggong who interrupted his strategy, he could not succeed in his strategy. It was obviously only one step away, but it was thousands of miles away.
Li Shimin was irritated by Li Kuan again. If it hadn’t been for Wu Gonggong’s words to be true, he would have said it for the first time without saying sophistry, and if it was for such reasons the second time, Li Shimin himself would be embarrassed, but fortunately he had not said it this time. , There is still room for reversal.
"It's okay if you don't come!" Li Shimin said calmly, "As long as you don't come, you won't be able to leave the house for half a step. It doesn't matter for a few years."
"Ginger is old and spicy!" Li Kuan murmured, Li Shimin looked at Li Kuan as if he had heard it, and the latter had to laugh and skip it vaguely. Even if it was the truth, he couldn't say it in person. Exit.
"Forgot to say, just in case, I will send soldiers to guard around the palace, even a fly can't fly!" Li Shimin added, saying this, Li Kuan was immediately convinced, not reconciled. Nodding willingly and agreeing: "The minister must come on time!"
"But willingly?" Li Shimin asked lightly, and Li Kuan bit his posterior molars and replied: "Willingly!"
"Go back to the mansion sooner if there's nothing wrong!" Li Kuan bowed to salute, turned and left the palace lonely, he was not calm for a long time, and it really couldn't continue. Originally planning to enter the palace this time, he would definitely be reprimanded, and then he was driven out of the capital as a matter of course.
Until he left the Tai Chi Palace, Li Kuan turned around and looked at the huge palace, recalling the bits and pieces before, and made up his mind: "I can't go this time, there will be another time!"
Li Kuan had eaten the weight and decided to leave Chang'an City. For him, there is nothing worthy of nostalgia here. The previous preparations didn't work at all. Except for the first effect, Li Kuan was always in a weak position after the two confronted again.
It's not that he is not smart, nor that he is reluctant, but that Li Shimin is standing next to the shrewd Duke Wu. With the cooperation of the two, all of Li Kuan's layout is self-defeating. What surprised Li Kuan most was that Li Shimin would let him do this. The concubine's participation in such a banquet is definitely a breakthrough.
The Mid-Autumn Festival was also a very important holiday in the Tang Dynasty, and even the curfew was lifted, and the capital officials, including local officials, would take a three-day vacation to allow them time to reunite with their families during their busy official duties. It can be said to be a very humane system. . New 81 Chinese network update the fastest computer terminal: https://
After Li Kuan left, Li Shimin only remembered the purpose of calling him into the palace this time, how things were completely different from what he planned. In other words, Li Shimin himself felt strange why there was a voice in his heart saying: "Done right!"
After a while, Li Shimin said solemnly: "What do you think?"
"The old slave thought that His Highness was determined to leave Chang'an City!"
Gonggong Wu knew his duty as a slave. He didn't comment on Li Kuan's actions. Instead, he said something inconsequential. It can be seen from Li Kuan's repeated tricks that Li Kuan is sincerely looking forward to leaving the capital. , Returning to that small place in Jingzhou, he can only say something about this matter, and some things are not what he should say as a slave.
"I know this, I mean other aspects!" Li Shimin saw Wu Gonggong's words cover up, and said angrily: "When will you cover up when you talk to me? You should guess what I'm asking, and it doesn't hurt to just say it. !"
"The old slave thinks that Your Highness is not easy!" Wu Gonggong smiled apologetically, and then said: "From the dialogue between His Highness and the emperor, His Highness seems to be unintentional but intentional. Such insight is very accessible and meticulous. It is absolutely rare. A great talent! If he enters an official position, no one can do it; if he joins the army, no one can compete with him."
Li Shimin never thought that Duke Wu had such a high evaluation of Li Kuan. Among the many children, only Li Kuan praised this. Even the prince Li Chengqian and even the most beloved prince Li Tai did not have this evaluation. It can be seen that Li Kuan gave him this evaluation. Is very impressed.
"If so, why did he do this?"
Li Shimin said to himself, as if asking Wu Gonggong. The latter just smiled. There are some things that Li Shimin can understand without him saying, because Li Kuan is unwilling to stay in the capital and would only do so if he wants to leave. The purpose is very simple. This made Li Shimin frowned and whispered: "If this is the case, then I will play a game with him; if I win, he decides by himself, if I lose, I will decide!" (End of this chapter)
