Chapter 339 What does it mean?
Li Er's head hurts very much, no, to be precise, it hurts very much.
From Changsun Chong's letter, we can see that Baekje is completely in chaos, and the small small land is actually divided into three forces.
A royal protection force headed by the Fuyu royal family is determined to suppress rebellion and protect the royal power.
The other one is the eight major clans. For greater power, the eight major clans embraced themselves together to fight against the royal family, and even fought against each other.
The last force was the rebel army that was rising and falling from all over the country. In order to win more power to survive, the frequency of the people's Baiji Uprisings was getting higher and higher, and it was very likely to sweep the whole country.
And all of this is because the stinky brats in the Ocean Navy are making trouble.
Li Er sighed with his head resting on Empress Changsun's slender legs and said with a long sigh: "Oh, the young people nowadays are really amazing."
Empress Changsun's eyes drooped slightly, and her hands gently rubbed Li Er's temples. Hearing the words, he said, "Your Majesty, I heard that Gao Ming had just sent nearly two million ounces of silver into the inner palace treasury?"
Li Er opened his eyes and looked at Empress Changsun Jianshui Qiutong: "No need to hear that this matter is true, 500,000 taels of silver, plus 1.5 million taels of silver worth of gold."
Queen Changsun's hands paused, as if she was frightened by this number.
The taxes for the entire year of the first year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty were only more than one million taels of silver, two million taels...
"Are you scared too? Guanyin Bi, you don't know how powerful young people are now..." Li Er changed into a more comfortable position, and told Empress Changsun with a touching touch.
As Li Er told, Empress Changsun sometimes frowned and sometimes covered her mouth and sighed. Finally, after hearing that her nephew Changsun Chong returned all the people of the eight major Baekje clans that had been captured, she chuckled and said, "Cheng'er and his children are so bad. In this way, wouldn't it be that the Baekje king compensated his wife and soldiers, and he lost hundreds of thousands of yuan, but he also redeemed a lot of enemies for himself."
"Isn't that true?" Li Er shook his head and said disappointedly: "I used to think that Baekje Tiger King was an extremely smart hero. Now it seems that it is just that."
"That may not be true. In my opinion, there are many coincidences in this. Chong'er and others will at most play a role in fueling the fire." Empress Changsun explained a fact from an objective perspective, downplaying the role played by Changsun Chong and others in this Baekje incident.
After all, these boys are too young. Even if they have elders behind them, it will be harmful and useless if they have elders behind them.
Li Er didn't know what the queen meant, and chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Guanyin maid, I have suppressed this matter. As long as the boy from the Li family doesn't have any place to promote it, there will not be too many people who care about this matter."
"It's your Majesty's trouble."
In the palace, Li Er and his wife discussed the follow-up of the Baekje incident.
Kangpingfang is a small building with little reputation but very elegant style.
In the main position, Li Chengqian was full of interest, instructing the country and inspiring words.
On the lower end of the left, Li Tai nodded frequently and agreed.
On the right side, Li Yuanjing's eyes squinted in drunkenness.
On the side of the female family, Li Xueyan smiled gracefully, and Li Yueling looked beautiful.
Li Hao, who was with the last seat, looked bitter and restless. His eyes were not a glance at the four maids standing behind Li Xueyan.
The four flowers of Wanhua Tower, Chang'an, was famous for Chang'an, and at this time he became Li Xueyan's maid, and the meaning was unpredictable.
But the problem is that Li Hao felt very unfair. I didn’t do anything well, but at most I drank two glasses of wine, and then each of them gave me a large handful of glass beads. As for how it is like this now.
Opposite Li Hao, a young man dressed in Turks was staring at him coldly, his eyes as if he was like a knife. He could tell at a cold look that this guy was not in good intentions.
Halfway through the wine, the Turks took advantage of Li Chengqian and others to raise their glasses and drink together and stood up, clasping their fists at Li Hao: "Li Shidu, but he still knows Xiao Wang."
Li Hao withdrew his gaze from Li Xueyan and looked at the Turkic young man: "What does Brother Bazhu mean? You and I are as close as brothers, how can you say such a dissident word?"
Yes, the Turkic young man was cheated by Li Hao once and was sent to the second prince Bazhuo, who was at the northernmost point of the Turkic resistance to Xueyantuo.
But I don’t know what method this kid used to leave Mobei and come to Chang'an, which really made Li Hao a little curious.
"It's as close as a brother..." Ba Zhuo lowered his head slightly and smiled self-deprecatingly: "I wonder if Shidu Li had heard a saying that brothers were used to betray him?"
Bazhuo's tone was full of grief and anger, which caused everyone to stop their hands and turn their attention to the two of them.
Li Hao looked at Bazhuo in grief and anger, and then looked at Li Xueyan who was sitting firmly on Diaoyutai. He had only one thought in his mind: blessings are not equal, and misfortunes never come alone. Li Xueyan is already hard to deal with. Now there is another Bazhuo. What's the point?
With a wry smile, Li Hao stood up and said innocently: "What does Brother Bazhu mean? Is it because someone did something wrong?"
"Of course it's not you who is wrong, it's me who is wrong, so I shouldn't believe you so easily." Every time I think of myself in the bitter and cold land for more than a year, Ba Zhuo feels like a knife cut.
If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he would even want to draw his sword against Li Hao and fight to the death.
"Brother Bazhuo, I heard that Turkic people are straightforward. They say one thing, two things, and two things. You are vague about it, but it is not difficult for me to do it?" In order not to cause misunderstandings from everyone, Li Hao felt it was necessary to let Bazhuo make things clear, otherwise wouldn't it ruin his reputation.
"Okay, since you say that, let's talk." Ba Zhuo felt very frustrated when he didn't say it clearly, and snorted coldly: "Li Dejian, what did you say before? If I help you achieve your goal and convince Tuli, I will help me gain a foothold in the golden tent and resist the grand setting. But now, this king is exiled to the northern border of the desert and confront Xue Yantuo every day. Do you have nothing to say about this?"
Li Hao didn't know who brought Ba Zhuo today and what the other party's purpose was, but he was definitely unwilling to take the blame for not taking it himself.
Looking at Ba Zhuo who was so sad and angry, he sighed softly: "Brother Ba Zhuo, I really didn't expect that you and my brothers would misunderstand me so much. Well, today, I, the Prince of the Tang Dynasty, are here, so let's make it clear."
"Okay, you say, I want to see what else you have to say." Ba Zhuo stared at Li Hao with his eyes, looking very bitter and revengeful, and said hatefully: "If you don't give me an explanation today, don't blame me for not ending with you."
Never stop? Standing behind Li Hao, Tiezhu, who was ruthless and talkative, narrowed his eyes and pressed the long knife on his waist and was about to take action.
"Zhuzi." Li Hao hurriedly stopped him, waved his hand indifferently, and then said to Bazhuo: "Brother Bazhuo, this is the last time I call you that today. I missed today. You walk on your Yangguan Road and I walk on my single-plank bridge."
"Hmph, don't do this." Ba Zhuo was afraid of losing money, and he had a cold face and remained indifferent.
"Okay." Li Hao nodded: "Since that's the case, let's talk. First of all, I want to know, Second Prince, whether you have prepared for the brothers to join forces; second Prince, can the Second Prince tell me if the grassland is in chaos, do you have the ability to calm down in one fell swoop; finally, I ask, can the Two Princes know that the king will not accept the order."
"This..." As far as Ba Zhuo's original intention was concerned, he really didn't care, but when it came to the chaos in the grassland, he really didn't think about it. Now when Li Hao asked, he immediately left speechless.
At the same time, Li Hao did not give him any more thoughts, and soon continued: "I heard that the men on the grassland worship the wolf god, so I want to ask the second prince, what is a wolf? Keep it at home, and you can reach out for your clothes and eat. Is that a wolf or a dog? Does the second prince want to be an eagle on the grassland or a "dog" raised in captivity.
Our Chinese ancestors have a saying that God will give a great responsibility to this person. If he must first suffer his mind, his muscles and bones, his body, his body, and his actions will be chaotic... Of course, in short, it can be explained that only when he suffers from suffering can he become the best person."
It makes sense. After experiencing a year of war baptism in Mobei, Bazhuo felt that he was many times stronger than before. As for the generous position who had been kept in the gold tent, he thought he was like a dog.
Not to mention anything else, if the war with Dadushi is now on, Bazhuo will be confident that he will defeat him with one-third of his troops.
His eyes flashed, and Bazhuo suddenly felt a great enlightenment. He was an eagle on the grassland, so he would not let a small golden tent tie his wings. Compared to the sweat position he gave, conquering everything with force was what he liked.
"Brother Dejian..."
"The Second Prince doesn't have to say much, I know how you will choose." Li Hao sat back in his position and took a deep breath and said, "If you really think that life I promised you is easy. As long as you are not afraid of leaving behind stains in your life, I can do a generous plan for you and make you the only legal heir of Mobei."
Ba Zhuo blinked his eyes and experienced a series of battles with Xue Yantuo. It was difficult for him to go back to live a life of being inferior to others, especially to obey the orders of a woman from the Central Plains, which made him feel even more frustrated.
More importantly, his main purpose of secretly coming to the Tang Dynasty this time was not to cause trouble for Li Hao. On the contrary, he also wanted to deepen his relationship with Li Hao in order to get some weapons from him.
As for King Jing who brought him in, this is just an idle prince, so it’s okay to lead a way. It’s really hard to make him do things!
But the problem is that the current situation seems to be different from what it is planned.
Originally, in his plan, Li Hao would definitely feel ashamed of his condemnation, and he could take the opportunity to blackmail Li Hao. As a result, the other party not only did not show any shame, but instead made a sensation that he, the second Turkic prince, was speechless. What is this? What is this? How could he say what he next?
There was a deadlock between Ba Zhuo and Li Hao. Li Yueling approached Li Xueyan on the side of the virgin family, pointed at the two of them and said, "Did you see the man's mouth, the lie ghost, Xueyan, you can't be deceived by that silly boy anymore."
Li Xueyan's face turned red at that time and she slapped Li Yueling: "Yueling, what are you talking about?"
"I'm not talking nonsense." Li Yueling turned his head and glanced at Sihua, Wanhua Tower behind him, and whispered: "Although Dejian is my younger brother, I am the most disgraceful man. If you don't believe me, you will suffer now."
Li Xueyan's head hung slightly: "But..., he didn't lie to me. I asked the four of them about that day, and Dejian had never touched them at all."
Compared with Li Yueling's gossip, what really embarrassed Li Xueyan was the unclear relationship between her and Li Dejian.
He has already achieved this level, but the enemy has always been close and separated. He said he doesn't have the intention. He takes great care of himself and said he has the intention, but he never came to propose marriage.
"I haven't encountered it even more miserable. My cousin's reputation in Chang'an is terrible. Do you believe he will not be moved by beauty?"
Li Xueyan's face turned pale: "You, what do you mean?"
"What else can it mean? I think this brat is either physically ill, he just likes... men."
The two women gathered together and muttered, and before they knew it, some changes had occurred on the other side.
I saw Bazhuo's face change like a lantern, and finally made up my mind and grabbed a jar of wine on the table to come to Li Hao: "Brother Dejian, Bazhuo was wrong before, and misunderstood your kindness. I hope Brother Dejian won't blame me."
He was arrogant at first and respectful at the other end, and there was something wrong! Li Hao narrowed his eyes and prepared to smash the wine jar at any time. He said lightly: "The Second Prince has said it, but Li Dejian is ashamed."
Unexpectedly, Bazhuo did not smash the wine jar, but instead raised it to Li Hao: "Bazhuo has shallow knowledge and does not know Mount Tai. This jar of wine should be punished by himself. I hope Dejian will not have the same knowledge as Bazhuo."
After saying that, the second Turkic prince raised his head and drank five pounds of steamed wine a jar without leaving any drops. He burped his eyes and fell down.
Damn, is this to cover your face with wine or do you have other intentions?
Li Hao believes that if someone cheated him like this, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he would probably not be able to find excitement again.
But the guy in front of him didn't care at all. Except for jumping at the beginning, he performed exactly like Kaizi in the rest of the time.
But the question is, is Bazhuo Kaizi?
Li Hao thinks it is not.
After ordering people to send Ba Zhuo to rest, Li Hao turned his attention to Li Chengqian and asked about his purpose.
Out of trust, Li Hao believed that if Ba Zhuo was brought by Li Chengqian, he would never notify himself.
But the facts proved that he was not wrong. Facing Li Hao's gaze, Li Chengqian glanced at Li Yuanjing without a trace.
Now, the situation is even more complicated.
Li Hao never expected that Ba Zhuo was brought by King Jing, and he couldn't help but secretly ask him where he offended this prince who was the same generation as Li Er.
