My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

This Duke Kangguo had figured out his plan from the beginning and even prepared this poem on purpose, just to make his concubine appear to be "unreasonable"!

In this way, he would be completely cleared of all charges and would be the one at fault. He was a minister, but he wanted to participate in the harem?

"Jieyu, this is your fault." Li Longji said fairly at this time. Chang'an was a very important minister to him, and Wu Qinghui was his most beloved concubine.

Wu Qinghui simply gave up on making excuses at this point, to avoid being accused of a bigger crime.

"Your Majesty, I am not well-trained in tea art. I only read it out to please my wife. I was anxious and recited it out. It is my fault." Chang An also gave a brief introduction to the "tea art" at this time.

Li Longji could see it, so he laughed and scolded: "Alright, alright, I know you are wronged. But I am afraid I cannot give this poem to your wife."

Chang An shook his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. My wife will not be dissatisfied with this."

"Forget it," Li Longji waved his hand and said, "You can go home now."

"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty."

Chang An bowed and said goodbye to everyone in the hall, and then left. Before leaving, Gao Lishi also whispered: "Duke Kangguo, good poem."

"Thank you."

Chang An walked out, not paying attention to the dark expressions on Wu Zhong and Wu Xin's faces, but walked straight out and sat on the sedan chair.

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little funny - remember, Li Bai was distorted by Gao Lishi because he asked him to take off his boots. But today, he and Gao Lishi just met, and he got a "good poem" in return.

It really depends on the ways of the world, so you shouldn’t cause resentment among others.

In Bingyue Palace, Li Longji also said to Wu Qinghui: "Okay, Wu Jieyu, don't be angry. Dingkang Hou is an unparalleled poet. This poem is given to you, so don't say anything bad about him."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wu Qinghui's reaction surprised Li Longji. Normally, she would have made a scene for a while. But today, she bowed her head so obediently? Could it be that she realized that she was wrong?

"Speaking of which, why did Concubine Jie make things difficult for Marquis Dingkang today?" Li Longji pulled her to sit down and asked, "If he really did something wrong, I will punish him for you."

Wu Qinghui wanted to say something at this moment, but those seemed to be trivial matters. She knew very well that even if she said them, the emperor in front of her would at most just smile and brush it off.

But Li Longji was looking at her at this moment. If she didn't say something, something bad might happen. So she thought for a moment and said, "When I went to Her Majesty the Queen's bedroom yesterday, the Duke Kang Guo made fun of me. I was so angry that I wanted to..."

After hearing this, Li Longji understood a little bit and said, "Okay, okay, it's just a little joke, don't take it to heart. I'll ask him to send something to your palace someday and ask him to apologize to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Longji realized that the relationship between the two was just revenge and there was no big hatred, so he felt relieved - one was his "million-strong army"; the other was his most beloved concubine, and it would be bad without either of them.

"With Qinghui by my side, I am happy; with Yonghe in front of me, I am at ease." Li Longji said, "I value both of you."

At this time, Wu Qinghui felt more and more dissatisfied as she listened. Although no one had taken advantage of anyone in today's incident, and no one had won, she felt inexplicably angry when she compared herself with Chang Yonghe and put them in the same position.

It wasn't the kind of anger that came from failure, but the dissatisfaction that his plan had been ruined. Chang An's appearance was like a chess piece of a different color flying onto the black and white chessboard in front of him. It would have been fine if this chess piece hadn't appeared, but once it appeared, it ruined his plan.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. The key point was that he couldn't show it in front of Li Longji.

At this time, Li Longji noticed that Li Ying, Gao Lishi and the Wu brothers were still standing there, so he said, "Ying'er, you and Lishi should leave for now."

"Yes."

After that, Li Ying and Gao Lishi left together. Li Longji looked at Wu Zhong and Wu Xin and asked, "Are you here today to see Concubine Wu?"

"Your Majesty, that's right."

"Then do you have anything else to say?"

Wu Xin and Wu Zhong looked at each other at this time and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"It's just that what I want to talk about is not my sister's affairs, but the Duke of Kangguo."

Li Longji frowned slightly. I can't say anything about Wu Qinghui, but I can't say anything about you either. Then he asked, "What happened to him? Hasn't the matter of poetry been resolved?"

"When Duke Kangguo came, he rode in a sedan chair, and he got off the sedan chair only when he reached the door. According to etiquette, he should have come on foot to pay his respects. I dare to say that riding in a sedan chair is an offense."

Li Longji snorted and said, "I have specially allowed Marquis Dingkang to not kneel when he sees the emperor. In the palaces of the imperial city, everyone walks on foot. Don't you know this?"

At this time, Wu Qinghui couldn't stand it anymore: "Two stupid teammates."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I will take my leave."

"Go down!"

......

Li Ying and Gao Lishi were on their way back to the East Palace at this time. Gao Lishi asked, "Your Highness, I dare to ask you."

"explain."

"Today's event was arranged by you and Duke Kangguo, right?" Gao Lishi was very shrewd and asked with a smile.

Li Ying looked at Gao Lishi with some caution at this time, and then Gao Lishi continued: "When I followed Your Majesty yesterday, I saw those scenes and had some guesses in my mind."

Li Ying didn't say anything, so Gao Lishi knew that he had guessed correctly. Gao Lishi continued, "I know that today's plan was a collaboration between Your Highness and Duke Kangguo. Although the Qingping Diao was not really satirizing Concubine Wu, if you insist on saying it was satirical, it would be the first."

Li Ying looked serious at this time and asked, "I wonder what Eunuch Gao wants to say?"

"I don't want to say anything. I can only say that if you, Duke Kangguo, want me to say something in front of Your Majesty, I can make it easier for you, but please don't involve Your Majesty."

"But at the same time, I will not hinder any of Concubine Wu's methods. If Your Highness and Duke Kangguo are in trouble, I will not be able to do anything about it."

Li Ying nodded and said, "Okay, is there anything you need to know?"

"I don't want to. I am just providing a convenience. I know what will happen if I add more."

Li Ying nodded and said, "I wonder why Eunuch Gao did this?"

"The Wu family's disorderly politics is a great taboo in the world, and I don't want to see it again." After Gao Lishi finished speaking, he stopped talking.

......

Chang An returned home at noon. When he got off the carriage, he saw Gu Li and the two children standing at the door. He was originally gloomy, but when he saw the mother and her two children, he immediately smiled.

"Aye! Aye!"

"Chang Lang."

Chang An smiled, picked up one in each hand, and then kissed Gu Li.

When they returned to the courtyard, it was time to have dinner. Gu Li looked at Chang An and wanted to say something but couldn't. He had no choice but to wait and pretend nothing had happened.

After dinner, Xiaoguai and Erguai were playing on the couch, while Gu Li and Chang An were sitting on the bed. At this time, the latter glanced in the direction of the two little ones, and then asked in a low voice:

"What's wrong Chang Lang?"

"What's wrong?"

Chang An hugged Gu Li and gently stroked her temples. Gu Li didn't like Chang An's questioning even though she knew the answer, so she said directly, "Chang Lang, don't play dumb. I saw everything when I came back."

"Chang Lang looked very sad when he got off the car. It seemed that something unhappy happened. And he came back half an hour later than usual. I thought Chang Lang had encountered something troublesome. If possible, can you tell me about it?"

Chang An sighed and said, "This is a relatively big matter. It's best if Gu Niang doesn't know about it."

After hearing this, Gu Li stopped nagging him. After all, it was important for him not to know what Chang An thought, and he could just support him silently from behind.

She didn't know what the big deal was in Chang An's eyes, she only knew that she had to support him well.

"Then can you tell me, is Chang Lang unhappy because his plan failed?" Gu Li asked at this time.

Chang An nodded and said, "Indeed, this time things are more troublesome. This time the plan is just going with the flow, a bit passive, and the result is not satisfactory."

Chang An's plan today was to use "Qingping Diao" to arouse Wu Qinghui's malice, and then let her leave an impression of "making trouble without reason" in Li Longji's mind, thus completing the first step of his plan.

But she had never expected that Li Longji would be able to "share the rain and dew equally". Although it could be considered a benefit - after all, the status of herself and Wu Qinghui in Li Longji's heart was similar.

"It's okay. If one plan doesn't work, think of another one." Gu Li smiled and kissed Chang An, comforting him, "Chang Lang is the best talent in the world. He is very smart."

Chang An shook his head, gently leaned on Gu Li's temples, and said, "It's okay. This plan doesn't have to succeed. This time it's neither good nor bad, and it's barely acceptable."

"Then why is Chang Lang so sad? I'm not happy about it either." Gu Li said with a pout.

"Because this plan did not succeed, the subsequent arrangements will be a bit troublesome, and I am worried about more things." Chang An explained.

Gu Li got out of Chang An's arms, climbed onto the bed, and then knelt down behind Chang An and rubbed his temples. Then he said:

"If it's difficult to handle, then we'll tell His Majesty that we can't do this anymore, so let's withdraw from this matter."

Chang An smiled and replied, "Okay."

How is that possible? If this fails, they will suffer a catastrophic disaster. Even if it is not for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, just for you, we must win.
