A sister Ling fell from the sky
Chapter 8
, said with some heartache, "It seems that Mr. Liu has also been implicated."
Feng Mingyu said hastily, "Isn't there still Master Shu, let's ask again."
"En." The two continued to search and came to a government compound, Xiao Luoling said, "This is it."
Two guards at the door stopped them, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Luoling said, "Excuse me, is this the residence of Mr. Shu?"
The clerk said, "It's up to you to say, didn't you see the writing on the door?"
Xiao Luoling said, "Please tell Mr. Shu that I am his niece, and I have something to do with him."
"Niece?" said the guard, "Why have I never heard of your lord having a niece?"
Feng Mingyu stepped forward and scolded, "Bold, open your dog eyes, the person talking to you is your aunt, if you neglect her to see Mrs. Shu, you will be overwhelmed and walk around."
Seeing Feng Ming's menacing tone, the guard felt a little scared and said, "Your Excellency has gone to the morning court. If you have something to do, please come back later."
Knowing that this is Master Shu's residence, Xiao Luoling felt a little relieved, and said, "Brother, please tell Master Shu."
The two turned and left, Feng Mingyu asked her, "Are you really Master Shu's niece?"
Xiao Luoling said, "How is it possible? You are stupid. His surname is Shu, and my surname is Xiao. I just called him uncle before, so I became a niece."
Feng Mingyu comforted her and said, "Then let's ask him after he gets off the court in the morning."
"Ah."
above the hall.
"Prince of Anxi, Ke Dalu, Princess Agatha pays respects to the emperor, long live the emperor."
Tang Wenzong sat upright, "flat body."
"Your Majesty, my father, King Anxi, sent envoys from our country to meet the Emperor. He presented more than 50 kinds of leather, animals, vegetables and fruits, and more than [-] kinds of medicinal materials, including palm ginseng and snow lotus, all of which were well preserved. We will have friendly exchanges with Datang. My father admires the demeanor of the Great Tang emperor, and hopes to make peace with the Great Tang, so that the two countries will become closer and have closer exchanges."
Tang Wenzong said sternly, "I am very pleased that King Anxi has fulfilled his duty. Today, I donate 10000 taels of gold, 500 buckets of tea, 800 horses, and [-] porcelain to the Anxi Kingdom. This is it."
After hearing this, Ke Dalu and Agatha hurriedly bowed their heads to thank, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"The two of you are exhausted from the journey, take a rest." Tang Wenzong said.
"This." Ke Dalu said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing."
"Oh? What's the matter?" Tang Wenzong asked.
"My father personally wrote a secret letter to His Majesty, hoping to make peace with Datang." Ke Dalu said.
Tang Wenzong looked at him and said, "I make up my own mind about the marriage, and you can choose my maid."
"Ah." Ke Dalu said, "Your Majesty, there is someone in Xiaowang's mind. She is not a woman in the palace. I hope that the Holy Majesty will play it."
"Oh? She is not a woman in the palace? Then tell me her name and where she lives, so I can help you find out." Tang Wenzong said.
"Here, Xiao Wang only met her once, and he knows her name is Feng Luoling, but he doesn't know anything else." Ke Dalu said.
"Hahahaha." Tang Wenzong laughed and said, "It turns out that you fell in love at first sight. I will send someone to find out. If she is not married yet, I will marry her to you and be your princess."
"The emperor's words are serious!" Ke Dalu asked excitedly.
"It's hard to chase after a gentleman's words, but I am a dignified son of heaven, no matter what you say." Tang Wenzong looked at him and said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!" Ke Dalu bowed his head again.
"Hahahaha. If there is nothing wrong, you two can go to rest," Tang Wenzong strode out of the hall.
"Brother, they obviously have a marriage contract. How can they marry you?" Agatha said to Ke Dalu.
"But they are not married. The emperor said that if there is no marriage, he will promise it to me." Ke Dalu had a happy face.
"But I don't know where they are, obviously they are not from Chang'an." Agatha said again.
"The emperor wants to investigate, it's not easy, and Feng Luoling's brother will also enter the palace, we will definitely meet!" Ke Dalu couldn't restrain his emotions, and stood up with a smile, "She is going to become your sister-in-law."
Agatha frowned, her brother actually liked that girl so much.
In the evening, Feng Mingyu and Xiao Luoling went to Shu Mansion again.
When Shu Xingzhi returned to the mansion, the guard said, "Master, there is a woman who says she is your niece and wants to see you."
"Niece?" Shu Xingzhi frowned, "Which niece?"
"She said her name was Feng Luoling."
"Feng Luoling? Luo Ling..." Shu Xingzhi opened his eyes wide and said, "Where is she now?"
"The little one let her wait in the guest room."
Shu Xingzhi hurried to the guest room.
Xiao Luoling heard footsteps, turned her head, saw Shu Xingzhi, who was old-fashioned, and called out, "Uncle."
"Luo Ling!" Shu Xingzhi hurriedly asked her to sit down, and said, "Luo Ling, I thought you were already."
"Uncle, I'm not dead, this young master saved me." Xiao Luoling looked up at Feng Mingyu.
Shu Xingzhi looked at them and said, "Follow me. This is not a place to talk."
The two were brought to a small room, and Shu Xingzhi asked, "Who is this?"
"My lord, I'm Feng Mingyu."
"Mr. Feng." Shu Xingzhi said, "Please sit down." He sighed, "Luo Ling, I have pity on you. Where have you been these past few years? When the palace was in chaos, you disappeared. I thought you were Already lost in the sea of flames...how about you, you haven't changed at all."
"Uncle, it's a long story. I came here to find out the whereabouts of my brother. At that time, my father abandoned me and died without anyone. You, old man." Xiao Luoling said with emotion.
"Your older brothers were all dispatched to the border of Shu by the late emperor. Last year, your second brother was shot to death by random arrows from the enemy in Xichuan. Your eldest brother is still missing." Shu Xingzhi said.
"What!" Xiao Luoling was so sad that she couldn't give up, "How did you know?"
"My nephew is fighting at the border, he told me." Shu Xingzhi said, "It's too difficult to find your brother now."
Xiao Luoling's face was pale, she didn't expect her second brother to be dead.Feng Mingyu patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.
Seeing the two of them kissing you, Shu Xingzhi asked hesitantly, "You two?"
"My lord, Luo Ling is my unmarried wife." Feng Mingyu said calmly.
"I see. I hope you can take good care of her. Now she has no relatives." Shu Xingzhi said.
"My lord, I'm sure I will. Thank you, my lord, for telling us this. I just wonder how many people were involved in the assassination of the emperor. How did your lord protect his life wisely?" Feng Mingyu looked at him and asked.
Xiao Luoling couldn't help tugging at her sleeve.Feng Mingyu held her hand to prevent her from being afraid.
"Um, here," Shu Xingzhi's eyes were a little dodgy, "the old man was not involved in this matter. There are not a few people involved. Liu Keming committed suicide by throwing himself into a well, and was later salvaged and whipped. Quite a shock."
"Hehe, I know what your lord said," Feng Mingyu said, "Since that's the case, don't bother your lord anymore. Take your leave."
"You two might as well rest at my house for a few days, so I can take care of you." Shu Xingzhi said.
"No need, some of our packages are still in the inn, let me go." Feng Mingyu pulled Xiao Luoling up and left.
"Mingyu, you." Xiao Luoling hesitated to speak.
Feng Mingyu hissed and didn't let her speak.
"Mingyu, why are you so indifferent to Master Shu?" Xiao Luoling asked her after returning.
Feng Mingyu said, "When I asked him, his expression was unnatural, and he answered irrelevant questions, evasive. Luo Ling, there are many people who betray others for their own sake. I don't think Master Shu is a good person."
"But he was an old friend with my father, so he doesn't look like a bad person." Xiao Luoling said puzzled.
Feng Mingyu looked at her, "Knowing people and faces but not heart, let's stay away from him first."
Xiao Luoling is silent, is it really in dire straits?
The two had been in Chang'an for a few days. On this day, Feng Mingyu and Xiao Luoling were wandering the streets. Suddenly, she dragged Xiao Luoling to hide in a clothing store, covering Xiao Luoling's mouth.
After a while, Xiao Luoling asked, "What's wrong?"
Feng Mingyu's eyes were deep, "I think the buyers are Pei and Se. Maybe they came to look for me. I didn't expect to find the imperial capital."
Xiao Luoling followed Feng Mingyu's gaze, and it turned out that the tall and burly man was very similar to the second young master of the Pei family, and there were several people around him.
"Mingyu, they didn't know we came to Chang'an, and besides, your name is now Feng Mingyu, not Pei Zhuxuan." Xiao Luoling said.
Feng Mingyu nodded, "Yes, but the two of us still have to be careful, if one is discovered, the other will not be able to escape."
"Both of you, come with us." Suddenly several officers and soldiers patted their shoulders, and the shop owner was too frightened to speak.
Feng Mingyu's eyes widened. Is this the mantis catching the cicada, with the oriole behind?Why did these officers and soldiers arrest them?
"Excuse me, brother, we didn't break the law, and we didn't steal, why did you arrest us?" Feng Mingyu asked.
"We are not arresting you, but asking you to go." The leading guard said.
At this moment, Agatha came out from the side, smiled and said, "You two, long time no see, it was hard to find you."
When Feng Mingyu and Xiao Luoling saw that it was the Anxi princess, they didn't realize it.
Xiao Luoling asked, "Why did the princess seek us?"
"Hehe." Agatha said, "Your emperor ordered the whole city to search you, and I just cooperated with the emperor."
"The emperor searched us?" Feng Mingyu asked, "Why?"
"Didn't you know when you went to the palace?" Agatha raised her eyebrows and smiled innocently, "Big brothers, please take them away, be gentle and don't scold them."
Feng Mingyu narrowed his eyes and stared at her, what the hell is this princess going to do?
"Yes, princess. Please, both of you, so that we don't get rough," said the guard.
Seeing the two of them being taken away, Agatha clapped her hands behind her and followed them up and down.
The two of them were actually brought to the palace. Feng Mingyu looked at the royal compound full of carved dragons and phoenixes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Sure enough, the palace is quite domineering.
After entering a room, Agatha said, "The two of you are waiting for your order here."
Xiao Luoling looked at Feng Mingyu worriedly, "Is there something wrong?"
Feng Mingyu held her hand, looked around, saw officers and soldiers everywhere, and said, "It's okay, I will always stay by your side."
"Yo yo yo, it's really a love affair between a man and a concubine, and it's hard to part with each other. But, you will be parting later." Agatha said with a smile.
Feng Mingyu glared at her, only to hear that at this time someone delivered an order that the emperor wanted to summon Feng Luoling.
Feng Mingyu hurriedly stopped them, "Why did the emperor summon her?"
The leading eunuch said, "You don't have to worry about this, do you know what the emperor does?" Turning to Feng Luoling, "Miss Feng, please."
Xiao Luoling panicked, Feng Mingyu took her hand and said, "I'll go with her!"
"The emperor only summoned Miss Feng. Come and take her away!" said the eunuch.
Feng Mingyu wanted to follow, but was held down by someone in the next second. She was so angry that her face turned blue, she gritted her teeth and watched Xiao Luoling being taken away.
Xiao Luoling was brought to the emperor, keeping her head down. Tang Wenzong saw her and said, "Raise your head."
Xiao Luoling raised her head slowly, Tang Wenzong walked down the steps, and said to the eunuch next to her, "Take off her hat and let her hair go."
The eunuch parted Xiao Luoling's hair, the emperor took a deep breath, she was indeed a woman, with an extraordinary temperament, petite and cute.
"Your name is Feng Luoling?" the emperor asked.
Xiao Luoling nodded when he saw that the emperor was young, but much more majestic than the previous emperor.
"Is this the person you are looking for?" the emperor asked Ke Dalu who was standing beside him.
Xiao Luoling turned her head, and sure enough, she saw Ke Dalu standing beside her with her chest in her arms.
"Back to the emperor, that's right." Ke Dalu said.
Tang Wenzong asked Xiao Luoling after listening, "I ask you, where do you live, what is the population, and are you married?"
When Xiao Luoling heard this, he glanced at Ke Dalu next to him. He already understood why the emperor summoned her, so he nodded and said, "Return to the emperor, the young lady is from Luoyang, and there are no relatives in the family. The young lady is already married."
"Oh?" The emperor turned to look at Ke Dalu and said, "She has already been married, how can she marry you?"
Ke Dalu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, a few days ago, she, she clearly said that there is only a marriage contract, but there is no marriage yet."
The emperor looked at Xiao Luoling and said, "He's telling the truth, if you lie to me, you will be beheaded."
Xiao Luoling was already in a cold sweat, and said, "Back to the emperor, although the little girl is not married, but she has already been engaged to her, so what's the difference?"
The emperor said, "He is the prince of the Anxi Kingdom, with high power and position. Now you represent my Tang Dynasty to make peace with the Anxi Kingdom, and contribute to my Tang Dynasty. Are you willing?"
Xiao Luoling knelt down and put her forehead on the ground, "Your Majesty, the little girl is just a commoner, and she is ashamed to represent Datang. I just ask the emperor to let the little girl reunite with my husband."
Tang Wenzong sighed and said, "Then I canonize you as the princess, your unmarried husband, and I will reward him with a thousand taels of gold, a hundred acres of fertile land, and several maidservants. Let him break the engagement with you, have you ever been willing?"
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Luoling raised her head, with tears already in her eyes, "It must not be done, my husband and I are in trouble, we live and die together, how can the Emperor break up lovers?"
"How unreasonable!" Tang Wenzong was slightly annoyed, "Do you dare to say that I beat mandarin ducks with a stick? If I said I would compensate him, why would he be unwilling?"
"Your Majesty, she doesn't admire the rich and powerful, and she has a passion for serving the country in her heart. How can you hurt the heart of a patriot just to get married?" Xiao Luoling burst into tears.
"Haha." Tang Wenzong sneered, "I have never met him before, so you just talk about his enthusiasm for serving the country. Since you want to serve the country, you should make contributions to our Tang Dynasty."
"emperor……"
"Okay, don't need to say much." Tang Wenzong said with his arms behind his back, "Feng Luoling is now appointed as Princess Rocky, and he will marry Ke Dalu, the third prince of the Anxi Kingdom, and we will be married in the spring and March of next year. I respect you."
When Xiao Luoling heard this, her eyes widened, she couldn't believe it at all.
Ke Dalu hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
He saw Xiao Luoling sitting there weeping, and walked over to wipe her tears, "Miss Luoling, I, marrying me, will not treat you badly."
Xiao Luoling gently pushed him away and closed his eyes.
After a while, several people took Xiao Luoling away.
Feng Mingyu was in the room all the time, fidgeting. Agatha walked up to her and said, "Can you stop shaking? It's no use walking back and forth."
Feng Mingyu stared at her, "Let me ask you, why did the emperor summon Luo Ling?"
"Well," Agatha said mysteriously, "Guess what, why would the emperor summon a commoner whom he has never met for no reason? Huh?" After speaking, she winked at her.
"You!" Feng Mingyu listened to her tone and said, "It's you!"
"Sure enough, you're really smart. Right now, your majesty is probably discussing marriage with my brother and Miss Luo Ling." Agatha said with a smile.
"What? Make a kiss!" Feng Mingyu felt his head buzzing, a little dizzy, and wanted Luo Ling to make a kiss?
"I want to go out!" Feng Mingyu got up and walked towards the door.
Agatha stopped her, "Mr. Feng, it won't help if you go out, there are still officers and soldiers stopping you outside. The emperor will not let you see Miss Luo Ling."
Feng Mingyu gasped, "Do you want to keep me here forever?"
Just at this time, a young eunuch came over and said, "Feng Mingyu accepts the order."
Feng Mingyu couldn't calm down all the time, and he didn't like the eunuch when he saw it. Agora pulled her, "Kneel down quickly."
Feng Mingyu knelt down unwillingly, and only listened to the eunuch saying, "Feng Mingyu listens to the decree, I think you are generous and loyal, and you are dedicated to the country. Now I allow you to dissolve the engagement with Feng Luoling. I will give you a thousand taels of gold and a hundred acres of fertile land. Dozens of maidservants, this is it."
What!The veins on Feng Mingyu's forehead were exposed, and he looked up at the eunuch viciously.
"Accept the order, it's cheap for you." The eunuch said to her arrogantly.
Feng Mingyu got up, snatched the imperial decree, quickly read it, and sure enough it said that the engagement was to be terminated, she gritted her teeth, "Why did the emperor reward me for no reason?"
"Well, you want to thank your cousin, who is now conferred the title of princess by the emperor, and is going to marry Prince Anxi. You can leave the palace now, go and receive your reward." The eunuch turned and left after finishing speaking. .
Feng Mingyu was limp on the ground, why did it happen?Seeing this, Agatha walked over and said, "You should be satisfied."
"Get out!" Feng Mingyu pulled out his arm that was touched by her, forced himself to stand up, and walked out of the room in a daze.
☆, in dire straits
"Your Majesty, I heard that Anxi and Anxi got married. That woman is just an ordinary woman, and she has already been engaged to someone else. The humble official thinks this is inappropriate." The speaker was Li Xun, the prime minister of the current dynasty, a confidant specially promoted by the emperor.
"Oh?" Tang Wenzong said, "Aiqing means to oppose this marriage?"
Li Xun said, "The woman's origin is unknown, and it is inappropriate to marry Prince Anxi now."
"She has no father and no mother. I have already conferred her the title of princess of the Tang Dynasty and given her a mansion and money. There will be no disadvantages for the Anxi Kingdom to marry me as the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Besides, this woman was chosen by Ke Dalu himself." Tang Wenzong said.
Qiu Shiliang said, "What the emperor said is very true. Anxi is a small country, and it is nothing to worry about. It is an honor for him to marry any woman in my Tang Dynasty."
The emperor nodded, only to hear another minister say at this time, "Your Majesty, I heard that the woman has a marriage contract, not to mention anything else, this is to let their lovers separate from each other." It was Prime Minister Zheng Zhu who spoke.
Qiu Shiliang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the country is small, family matters are important, and personal matters are small. I think this matter is trivial. How can Mr. Zheng compare the love between men and women with state affairs?"
"You put the people first, Your Majesty, please think twice." Zheng Zhu continued.
Tang Wenzong said sternly, "Okay, you don't need to say too much, I have made a decree on the marriage, so how can you go back on your word? Lovers don't need to argue." After he finished speaking, he asked, "How is the princess now? "
An official said, "Back to the emperor, the princess has been settled in the princess's mansion, and I will take good care of her."
"En." Tang Wenzong nodded, "Take good care of the princess, teach her etiquette, and marry Ke Dalu next spring. What else do you love?"
"Reporting to the emperor, I heard that Feng Mingyu, a commoner, refused to accept the order, as long as his fiancée, and asked to meet the emperor for many days, was stopped. How should I deal with it?"
The emperor's face was calm, "It's just a mere scumbag. It would be good if I didn't chop off his head for the crime of resisting the decree. Still want to see me? Throw him out, and he is not allowed to approach the palace, let alone the princess." .”
"Yes."
Zheng Zhu looked at the emperor and thought deeply, "Your Majesty, no, since Feng Mingyu is at the gate of the palace, and he doesn't want rewards, it means that he is not greedy for glory and wealth, and has a deep love for his fiancee. Your Majesty, please think again."
Tang Wenzong frowned, "Retire!"
Xiao Luoling was locked in the princess's mansion all day long, and no outsiders were allowed to approach her. She was unhappy and couldn't see Feng Mingyu. Could it be that she really wanted to marry this resting prince?
"Luo Ling, why don't you eat something." Ke Dalu put the plate on the table.
Xiao Luoling looked at him coldly, "Prince, you and I just met by chance, why do you insist on marrying me? I have no affection for you, Prince, please let me go."
Kodalu said, "In our country, when you see a girl you love, you must try to marry her back home. Only in this way are you a real warrior and a man."
"Hehe, don't the prince feel despicable relying on the emperor's decree?" Xiao Luoling said with a sneer.
Ke Dalu's face was a bit ugly, "This is your emperor's will, how can you be despicable? Moreover, when I arrive in Anxi Kingdom, I will enjoy inexhaustible glory and wealth. After I ascend the throne, you will be the queen. Under one person, ten thousand Above all, what are you dissatisfied with?"
Xiao Luoling closed her eyes, "So what, it's just like a puppet."
Ke Dalu lost his smile, grabbed her sleeve, stared at her and said, "Now that the imperial decree has been issued, the fact that can no longer be changed, if you resist the decree, you will be killed. Why are you so stubborn!"
Xiao Luoling looked at him with red eyes, "You have never loved anyone, so you are the one who is stubborn."
"No." Ke Dalu said, "I love you, I fell in love with you at first sight. Luo Ling, I want you to be happy."
Xiao Luoling said, "Since you want to make me happy, then let me go."
"Impossible!" Ke Dalu let go of her hand, "I will definitely let you follow me obediently!" After speaking, he stepped out.
Xiao Luoling closed her eyes again, tears falling down.
Feng Mingyu had no way to see Xiao Luoling, and this day she was wandering around the princess' mansion again, but the soldiers guarding the gate just wouldn't let her in.
Feng Mingyu shouted at the door, "Luo Ling! Luo Ling!"
"Bold! You also called the Princess's name? Get lost!" A guard came over and scolded her.
Feng Mingyu's eyes turned red, "You bastards, you are keeping her under house arrest!"
"Hmph, if you dare to speak nonsense again, I won't be polite." The leading guard said.
"What? Still want to ignore human life?" Feng Mingyu asked her with a cold face.
"Come on! Beat her out! Don't allow her to approach the princess mansion!" the guard shouted sharply.
Then, several guards with guns knocked Feng Mingyu to the ground.
"Stop!" A clear female voice came, and several guards saw it, and hurriedly stopped.
Feng Mingyu propped up his arms, struggled to get up from the ground, sprayed blood on the guard's face, and looked at him contemptuously.
The lead guard was furious, and wanted to go to her side to make a move, but Agatha stood in front of Feng Mingyu and said, "Why do you want to beat her?"
"She has no law in her eyes and is causing trouble at the gate of the princess's mansion." A few soldiers said.
Agatha looked at Feng Mingyu, who was full of injuries but refused to give in, and looked at the guards, and said, "But it's even more wrong for you to beat people without authorization. I didn't expect that the soldiers of Datang were so uneducated."
"Princess, this is our internal matter. I hope the princess will not interfere. Besides, this is to protect the princess of your Anxi kingdom." The leading guard said to Agatha.
Agatha glared at him, then pulled Feng Mingyu away.
Feng Mingyu broke free from her hand, looked at her coldly and said, "So, are you satisfied? I didn't expect the prince and princess of Anxi Kingdom to be so obscene and want to steal other people's wives as wives."
Agatha said, "This is the imperial decree of the emperor. It is a supreme thing to be married to Anxi, and how many people wish for it."
"Bah." Feng Mingyu spat, "It's just using the emperor's will to cover up my despicableness."
"you!"
Agatha turned blue with anger, and said, "Whatever you say now, the marriage has become a fait accompli. Why are you doing useless things?"
"Hehe." Feng Mingyu sneered and left sullenly.
Feng Mingyu seemed to have lost her soul for a few days, lingering in the restaurant all day long, but she didn't expect that ancient wine was like fruit juice, so she drank a few more glasses.She went out that day and watched the people coming and going on the street, feeling a sense of loneliness. Suddenly she missed her home, milk tea, her car, the office, and everything at that time.She looked at the sky, a tear fell down her ear, she suddenly squatted down with her head in her arms, sobbing softly, Luo Ling, what should I do?
"Hey, don't get in the way here." Someone kicked him.
Feng Mingyu raised his head, wiped away his tears suddenly in a panic, stood up, bowed and said, "Little prince. I don't know if it's the prince, please forgive me."
"So it was you." Li Yong looked at her excitedly and said, "What happened to your face? Who bullied you?"
Feng Mingyu was a little embarrassed, "It's nothing, thank you Prince for your concern, why did you come here?"
Li Yong said, "Come with me."
When the two arrived in a private room, Li Yong said with a smile, "After listening to your opinion that day, my father, Emperor Longyan Dayue, originally wanted to find you, but my mother kept letting me study in the palace, so I was able to come out today. I met you here."
"Why is the prince looking for me?" Feng Mingyu nodded slightly, but Li Yong didn't know that she had actually gone to the palace long ago.
"Of course it is to learn from a teacher. My father dislikes those teachers who are too superficial, and asks three questions. He wants to find a talented person for me, but my father is busy with government affairs, so he forgot for a while." Li Yong said.
Feng Mingyu said hastily, "How can a grassroots man be able to be the prince's teacher?"
"This statement is wrong. You are humble, brave, and respectable. If you refuse to teach me, then you are too arrogant and look down on me."
"Prince, no! Don't say that, the grassroots have no such intentions." Feng Mingyu cupped his hands.
"Then, let's be friends first, and I will tell my father to test you personally." Li Yong said.
Feng Mingyu thought deeply, maybe this Li Yong can save Luo Ling, she said, "That's okay. Can the prince promise me something?"
"What's the matter?" Li Yong asked.
"Don't tell others about the two of us, otherwise, if the Holy Majesty finds out that I have little knowledge and misled the prince, my head will be lost." Feng Mingyu said seriously.
"This," Li Yong said, "alright."
"Then let's pull the hook." Feng Mingyu said with a faint smile.
After all, Li Yong was still a child, so he also said with a smile, "Pull the hook."
"Teacher, I've been waiting for a long time." Li Yong smiled and entered a box in a small restaurant.
Feng Mingyu said hastily, "I condescend to let His Highness come here, Caomin is already very sorry. Your Highness, I, can't bear the title of teacher."
"From now on, you are my teacher, there is no need to shirk, or I will cut off your head." Li Yong said.
"Yes." Feng Mingyu broke into a cold sweat.
"I wonder if Your Highness knows about the recent marriage with Anxi Kingdom?" Feng Mingyu asked.
Li Yong shook his head, "I only know that my father appointed a woman as princess to marry Anxi, but I don't know anything else."
"Your Highness, this woman has a marriage contract with someone else, and the resting prince Kodalu is forcing her to marry her. Now, the woman is separated from her fiancé Lao Yan, and she has been crying all day long. The Anxi Kingdom is a small country, the emperor now wants to marry her. It breaks up our lovers, what does His Highness think?" Feng Mingyu said.
Li Yong frowned and looked at her, "Why does the teacher know so well? Besides, you are just ordinary people, how can you talk about state affairs?"
Feng Mingyu looked at him and said, "Little prince, if we talk about the important affairs of the country, the life and death of the people is not a big issue? In the past dynasties, how many people were displaced and caused riots, which led to the demise of the dynasty. Recently, I heard that the princess did not think about eating and drinking all day long. When Anxi Kingdom wants to marry her, I'm afraid it will be a cold corpse." Feng Mingyu did not tell him that the princess is Xiao Luoling.
Li Yong looked at her in disbelief, "According to the teacher..."
Feng Mingyu told the whole story one by one, and said, "Your Highness, although this matter is risky, it is also a good time for you to flex your muscles."
Li Yong clenched his fists and said, "Okay! I'll go and tell my father, thank you for your teaching."
Feng Mingyu looked at the leaving figure of the little prince, and then took out Bai Juyi's letter. Save this letter for later use.
"Why did the emperor come to me recently?" Tang Wenzong looked up at Li Yong.
"Father, my son heard about the recent marriage with the Anxi Kingdom, so I came here to ask the godfather." Li Yongxiao stood upright.
"Oh?" Tang Wenzong was really surprised. At a young age, Li Yong began to want to discuss state affairs. "What can the emperor ask for advice?"
"My child heard that the woman had already had a marriage contract, but now she remarried to someone else, admiring the glory and wealth, and she couldn't be consistent. She violated the legacy of her ancestors and disobeyed women's morals. She should be executed." Li Yong said.
Tang Wenzong's expression was serious, "It was the father who allowed her to cancel the engagement!"
"Oh? Really?" Li Yong frowned and thought, "So, that woman is not willing to marry the resting prince?"
"Presumptuous, she dares not obey my will!" Tang Wenzong said.
Li Yong smiled and said, "Father, please calm down. If ordinary people dare not disobey, but my child heard that the princess shed tears all day long, and her unmarried husband was beaten repeatedly. Torn apart alive."
Tang Wenzong looked sternly, "What exactly is my son going to say?"
"Father, there are five rituals in China, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust. It is inhumane to beat mandarin ducks with sticks, and let a loving couple separate from each other. It is unrighteous for a wife to remarry and her husband to be displaced. It is impolite to recklessly make an order without asking why. In a small country like Er, it is unwise to harm the common people. Love the people like children, but now they treat them like nothing, and it is unbelievable. The princess married King Anxi, and all benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust are lost."
"Bold!" Tang Wenzong said, "Are you scolding me?"
"I don't dare, my son just thinks that a wise ruler is virtuous and benevolent, so that he can be righteous. Now my son hears about the two of them, and I feel a little sad." Mr. Li said.
Tang Wenzong thought about his words carefully, not to mention that Li Yong offended him, but he was able to speak in an orderly manner, and he was really surprised that he had grown so much.
"Imperial son, my father has already promised Anxi Kingdom to marry them, how can I go back on my word?" Tang Wenzong said.
"Father, my child did not say that I would repent. My Tang Dynasty has hundreds of miles of mountains and rivers, countless soldiers and horses, and countless fertile fields. The Anxi Kingdom will pay tribute to my Tang Dynasty every year, respect me as the king, and him as a minister. Father should show With the majestic power of my Great Tang, how can I be afraid of that mere Anxi Kingdom. So, regarding the matter of getting married, my father was led by the nose by the prince's words. This is not the demeanor of my Great Tang monarch."
Tang Wenzong looked at Li Yong fixedly, walked to his side, and said, "Who taught you these things?"
"The queen mother let the child read books, and the emperor father let the child understand the people's sentiments, and the child learned from it." Li Yong said.
Tang Wenzong frowned and said, "You mean to oppose this marriage?"
"Yes, father, when Ke Dalu marries the princess, I am afraid that he will be accompanied by a cold corpse, and then father will even be looked down upon by the Anxi kingdom." Mr. Li said.
Tang Wenzong took a few steps, turned to look at Li Yong and said, "Father will think about this matter carefully." He just wondered when this child became so bold and eloquent.
"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Feng Mingyu hurriedly asked when he saw Li Yong approaching in good spirits.
Li Yong smiled and said, "Father seems to be a little shaken. Although I contradicted him, he seemed happier and took me and my mother to play together. Teacher, it is really thanks to you."
"Really?" Feng Mingyu said, "That's good, you can continue to persuade the emperor tomorrow."
Li Yong looked at Feng Mingyu with a half-smile, "Why is Teacher so sad about this matter?"
Feng Mingyu paused, "Return to Your Highness, in fact, the princess is my fiancée."
"What?" Li Yong was incredulous, "Is it your fiancée? Why...why didn't you say it earlier?"
Feng Mingyu smiled wryly, "What's the use of saying earlier."
Li Yong looked at the scar on her face and frowned.
In the back garden of the imperial palace, Li Yong stood beside Tang Wenzong and said, "Father, my son recently heard that the Sichuan Jiedu envoy rebelled. There are high mountains and the emperor is far away. They use their military power to commit crimes and even want to become kings themselves." Last year Father sent Liu Zhiwen to resist, but he was cowardly and incompetent, and turned against him. My son thinks that we should send troops to suppress it as soon as possible."
Tang Wenzong looked at him and said, "Who does my son think can take on this great task?"
"I don't dare to speak rashly, but I heard that Qian Heming, the leader of the Forbidden Army, is brave and resourceful, and can take on this great task."
"Hahaha." Tang Wenzong said with a smile, "In my opinion, let him guard the border."
Li Yong grinned and smiled innocently. The emperor looked at him thoughtfully, then squatted beside him and said, "My lord, tell father honestly, who taught you? Why do you think those teachers of yours Are they all pedantic people?"
Li Yong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Does Father want to see him?"
Tang Wenzong took a deep breath, it turned out that someone really gave advice, "Hehe, it seems that my son found a teacher by himself, but he didn't explain it to me."
Li Yongdao, "My boy's master is very humble, and he will never dare to see his father until he makes progress."
"Oh? Is there such a person? Then I want to meet him. You take him to the Golden Temple tomorrow, and I will meet him in person." Tang Wenzong said.
"Yes, Father."
After returning, Tang Wenzong went down
Feng Mingyu said hastily, "Isn't there still Master Shu, let's ask again."
"En." The two continued to search and came to a government compound, Xiao Luoling said, "This is it."
Two guards at the door stopped them, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Luoling said, "Excuse me, is this the residence of Mr. Shu?"
The clerk said, "It's up to you to say, didn't you see the writing on the door?"
Xiao Luoling said, "Please tell Mr. Shu that I am his niece, and I have something to do with him."
"Niece?" said the guard, "Why have I never heard of your lord having a niece?"
Feng Mingyu stepped forward and scolded, "Bold, open your dog eyes, the person talking to you is your aunt, if you neglect her to see Mrs. Shu, you will be overwhelmed and walk around."
Seeing Feng Ming's menacing tone, the guard felt a little scared and said, "Your Excellency has gone to the morning court. If you have something to do, please come back later."
Knowing that this is Master Shu's residence, Xiao Luoling felt a little relieved, and said, "Brother, please tell Master Shu."
The two turned and left, Feng Mingyu asked her, "Are you really Master Shu's niece?"
Xiao Luoling said, "How is it possible? You are stupid. His surname is Shu, and my surname is Xiao. I just called him uncle before, so I became a niece."
Feng Mingyu comforted her and said, "Then let's ask him after he gets off the court in the morning."
"Ah."
above the hall.
"Prince of Anxi, Ke Dalu, Princess Agatha pays respects to the emperor, long live the emperor."
Tang Wenzong sat upright, "flat body."
"Your Majesty, my father, King Anxi, sent envoys from our country to meet the Emperor. He presented more than 50 kinds of leather, animals, vegetables and fruits, and more than [-] kinds of medicinal materials, including palm ginseng and snow lotus, all of which were well preserved. We will have friendly exchanges with Datang. My father admires the demeanor of the Great Tang emperor, and hopes to make peace with the Great Tang, so that the two countries will become closer and have closer exchanges."
Tang Wenzong said sternly, "I am very pleased that King Anxi has fulfilled his duty. Today, I donate 10000 taels of gold, 500 buckets of tea, 800 horses, and [-] porcelain to the Anxi Kingdom. This is it."
After hearing this, Ke Dalu and Agatha hurriedly bowed their heads to thank, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"The two of you are exhausted from the journey, take a rest." Tang Wenzong said.
"This." Ke Dalu said hesitantly, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing."
"Oh? What's the matter?" Tang Wenzong asked.
"My father personally wrote a secret letter to His Majesty, hoping to make peace with Datang." Ke Dalu said.
Tang Wenzong looked at him and said, "I make up my own mind about the marriage, and you can choose my maid."
"Ah." Ke Dalu said, "Your Majesty, there is someone in Xiaowang's mind. She is not a woman in the palace. I hope that the Holy Majesty will play it."
"Oh? She is not a woman in the palace? Then tell me her name and where she lives, so I can help you find out." Tang Wenzong said.
"Here, Xiao Wang only met her once, and he knows her name is Feng Luoling, but he doesn't know anything else." Ke Dalu said.
"Hahahaha." Tang Wenzong laughed and said, "It turns out that you fell in love at first sight. I will send someone to find out. If she is not married yet, I will marry her to you and be your princess."
"The emperor's words are serious!" Ke Dalu asked excitedly.
"It's hard to chase after a gentleman's words, but I am a dignified son of heaven, no matter what you say." Tang Wenzong looked at him and said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!" Ke Dalu bowed his head again.
"Hahahaha. If there is nothing wrong, you two can go to rest," Tang Wenzong strode out of the hall.
"Brother, they obviously have a marriage contract. How can they marry you?" Agatha said to Ke Dalu.
"But they are not married. The emperor said that if there is no marriage, he will promise it to me." Ke Dalu had a happy face.
"But I don't know where they are, obviously they are not from Chang'an." Agatha said again.
"The emperor wants to investigate, it's not easy, and Feng Luoling's brother will also enter the palace, we will definitely meet!" Ke Dalu couldn't restrain his emotions, and stood up with a smile, "She is going to become your sister-in-law."
Agatha frowned, her brother actually liked that girl so much.
In the evening, Feng Mingyu and Xiao Luoling went to Shu Mansion again.
When Shu Xingzhi returned to the mansion, the guard said, "Master, there is a woman who says she is your niece and wants to see you."
"Niece?" Shu Xingzhi frowned, "Which niece?"
"She said her name was Feng Luoling."
"Feng Luoling? Luo Ling..." Shu Xingzhi opened his eyes wide and said, "Where is she now?"
"The little one let her wait in the guest room."
Shu Xingzhi hurried to the guest room.
Xiao Luoling heard footsteps, turned her head, saw Shu Xingzhi, who was old-fashioned, and called out, "Uncle."
"Luo Ling!" Shu Xingzhi hurriedly asked her to sit down, and said, "Luo Ling, I thought you were already."
"Uncle, I'm not dead, this young master saved me." Xiao Luoling looked up at Feng Mingyu.
Shu Xingzhi looked at them and said, "Follow me. This is not a place to talk."
The two were brought to a small room, and Shu Xingzhi asked, "Who is this?"
"My lord, I'm Feng Mingyu."
"Mr. Feng." Shu Xingzhi said, "Please sit down." He sighed, "Luo Ling, I have pity on you. Where have you been these past few years? When the palace was in chaos, you disappeared. I thought you were Already lost in the sea of flames...how about you, you haven't changed at all."
"Uncle, it's a long story. I came here to find out the whereabouts of my brother. At that time, my father abandoned me and died without anyone. You, old man." Xiao Luoling said with emotion.
"Your older brothers were all dispatched to the border of Shu by the late emperor. Last year, your second brother was shot to death by random arrows from the enemy in Xichuan. Your eldest brother is still missing." Shu Xingzhi said.
"What!" Xiao Luoling was so sad that she couldn't give up, "How did you know?"
"My nephew is fighting at the border, he told me." Shu Xingzhi said, "It's too difficult to find your brother now."
Xiao Luoling's face was pale, she didn't expect her second brother to be dead.Feng Mingyu patted her on the shoulder to comfort her.
Seeing the two of them kissing you, Shu Xingzhi asked hesitantly, "You two?"
"My lord, Luo Ling is my unmarried wife." Feng Mingyu said calmly.
"I see. I hope you can take good care of her. Now she has no relatives." Shu Xingzhi said.
"My lord, I'm sure I will. Thank you, my lord, for telling us this. I just wonder how many people were involved in the assassination of the emperor. How did your lord protect his life wisely?" Feng Mingyu looked at him and asked.
Xiao Luoling couldn't help tugging at her sleeve.Feng Mingyu held her hand to prevent her from being afraid.
"Um, here," Shu Xingzhi's eyes were a little dodgy, "the old man was not involved in this matter. There are not a few people involved. Liu Keming committed suicide by throwing himself into a well, and was later salvaged and whipped. Quite a shock."
"Hehe, I know what your lord said," Feng Mingyu said, "Since that's the case, don't bother your lord anymore. Take your leave."
"You two might as well rest at my house for a few days, so I can take care of you." Shu Xingzhi said.
"No need, some of our packages are still in the inn, let me go." Feng Mingyu pulled Xiao Luoling up and left.
"Mingyu, you." Xiao Luoling hesitated to speak.
Feng Mingyu hissed and didn't let her speak.
"Mingyu, why are you so indifferent to Master Shu?" Xiao Luoling asked her after returning.
Feng Mingyu said, "When I asked him, his expression was unnatural, and he answered irrelevant questions, evasive. Luo Ling, there are many people who betray others for their own sake. I don't think Master Shu is a good person."
"But he was an old friend with my father, so he doesn't look like a bad person." Xiao Luoling said puzzled.
Feng Mingyu looked at her, "Knowing people and faces but not heart, let's stay away from him first."
Xiao Luoling is silent, is it really in dire straits?
The two had been in Chang'an for a few days. On this day, Feng Mingyu and Xiao Luoling were wandering the streets. Suddenly, she dragged Xiao Luoling to hide in a clothing store, covering Xiao Luoling's mouth.
After a while, Xiao Luoling asked, "What's wrong?"
Feng Mingyu's eyes were deep, "I think the buyers are Pei and Se. Maybe they came to look for me. I didn't expect to find the imperial capital."
Xiao Luoling followed Feng Mingyu's gaze, and it turned out that the tall and burly man was very similar to the second young master of the Pei family, and there were several people around him.
"Mingyu, they didn't know we came to Chang'an, and besides, your name is now Feng Mingyu, not Pei Zhuxuan." Xiao Luoling said.
Feng Mingyu nodded, "Yes, but the two of us still have to be careful, if one is discovered, the other will not be able to escape."
"Both of you, come with us." Suddenly several officers and soldiers patted their shoulders, and the shop owner was too frightened to speak.
Feng Mingyu's eyes widened. Is this the mantis catching the cicada, with the oriole behind?Why did these officers and soldiers arrest them?
"Excuse me, brother, we didn't break the law, and we didn't steal, why did you arrest us?" Feng Mingyu asked.
"We are not arresting you, but asking you to go." The leading guard said.
At this moment, Agatha came out from the side, smiled and said, "You two, long time no see, it was hard to find you."
When Feng Mingyu and Xiao Luoling saw that it was the Anxi princess, they didn't realize it.
Xiao Luoling asked, "Why did the princess seek us?"
"Hehe." Agatha said, "Your emperor ordered the whole city to search you, and I just cooperated with the emperor."
"The emperor searched us?" Feng Mingyu asked, "Why?"
"Didn't you know when you went to the palace?" Agatha raised her eyebrows and smiled innocently, "Big brothers, please take them away, be gentle and don't scold them."
Feng Mingyu narrowed his eyes and stared at her, what the hell is this princess going to do?
"Yes, princess. Please, both of you, so that we don't get rough," said the guard.
Seeing the two of them being taken away, Agatha clapped her hands behind her and followed them up and down.
The two of them were actually brought to the palace. Feng Mingyu looked at the royal compound full of carved dragons and phoenixes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Sure enough, the palace is quite domineering.
After entering a room, Agatha said, "The two of you are waiting for your order here."
Xiao Luoling looked at Feng Mingyu worriedly, "Is there something wrong?"
Feng Mingyu held her hand, looked around, saw officers and soldiers everywhere, and said, "It's okay, I will always stay by your side."
"Yo yo yo, it's really a love affair between a man and a concubine, and it's hard to part with each other. But, you will be parting later." Agatha said with a smile.
Feng Mingyu glared at her, only to hear that at this time someone delivered an order that the emperor wanted to summon Feng Luoling.
Feng Mingyu hurriedly stopped them, "Why did the emperor summon her?"
The leading eunuch said, "You don't have to worry about this, do you know what the emperor does?" Turning to Feng Luoling, "Miss Feng, please."
Xiao Luoling panicked, Feng Mingyu took her hand and said, "I'll go with her!"
"The emperor only summoned Miss Feng. Come and take her away!" said the eunuch.
Feng Mingyu wanted to follow, but was held down by someone in the next second. She was so angry that her face turned blue, she gritted her teeth and watched Xiao Luoling being taken away.
Xiao Luoling was brought to the emperor, keeping her head down. Tang Wenzong saw her and said, "Raise your head."
Xiao Luoling raised her head slowly, Tang Wenzong walked down the steps, and said to the eunuch next to her, "Take off her hat and let her hair go."
The eunuch parted Xiao Luoling's hair, the emperor took a deep breath, she was indeed a woman, with an extraordinary temperament, petite and cute.
"Your name is Feng Luoling?" the emperor asked.
Xiao Luoling nodded when he saw that the emperor was young, but much more majestic than the previous emperor.
"Is this the person you are looking for?" the emperor asked Ke Dalu who was standing beside him.
Xiao Luoling turned her head, and sure enough, she saw Ke Dalu standing beside her with her chest in her arms.
"Back to the emperor, that's right." Ke Dalu said.
Tang Wenzong asked Xiao Luoling after listening, "I ask you, where do you live, what is the population, and are you married?"
When Xiao Luoling heard this, he glanced at Ke Dalu next to him. He already understood why the emperor summoned her, so he nodded and said, "Return to the emperor, the young lady is from Luoyang, and there are no relatives in the family. The young lady is already married."
"Oh?" The emperor turned to look at Ke Dalu and said, "She has already been married, how can she marry you?"
Ke Dalu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, a few days ago, she, she clearly said that there is only a marriage contract, but there is no marriage yet."
The emperor looked at Xiao Luoling and said, "He's telling the truth, if you lie to me, you will be beheaded."
Xiao Luoling was already in a cold sweat, and said, "Back to the emperor, although the little girl is not married, but she has already been engaged to her, so what's the difference?"
The emperor said, "He is the prince of the Anxi Kingdom, with high power and position. Now you represent my Tang Dynasty to make peace with the Anxi Kingdom, and contribute to my Tang Dynasty. Are you willing?"
Xiao Luoling knelt down and put her forehead on the ground, "Your Majesty, the little girl is just a commoner, and she is ashamed to represent Datang. I just ask the emperor to let the little girl reunite with my husband."
Tang Wenzong sighed and said, "Then I canonize you as the princess, your unmarried husband, and I will reward him with a thousand taels of gold, a hundred acres of fertile land, and several maidservants. Let him break the engagement with you, have you ever been willing?"
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Luoling raised her head, with tears already in her eyes, "It must not be done, my husband and I are in trouble, we live and die together, how can the Emperor break up lovers?"
"How unreasonable!" Tang Wenzong was slightly annoyed, "Do you dare to say that I beat mandarin ducks with a stick? If I said I would compensate him, why would he be unwilling?"
"Your Majesty, she doesn't admire the rich and powerful, and she has a passion for serving the country in her heart. How can you hurt the heart of a patriot just to get married?" Xiao Luoling burst into tears.
"Haha." Tang Wenzong sneered, "I have never met him before, so you just talk about his enthusiasm for serving the country. Since you want to serve the country, you should make contributions to our Tang Dynasty."
"emperor……"
"Okay, don't need to say much." Tang Wenzong said with his arms behind his back, "Feng Luoling is now appointed as Princess Rocky, and he will marry Ke Dalu, the third prince of the Anxi Kingdom, and we will be married in the spring and March of next year. I respect you."
When Xiao Luoling heard this, her eyes widened, she couldn't believe it at all.
Ke Dalu hurriedly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
He saw Xiao Luoling sitting there weeping, and walked over to wipe her tears, "Miss Luoling, I, marrying me, will not treat you badly."
Xiao Luoling gently pushed him away and closed his eyes.
After a while, several people took Xiao Luoling away.
Feng Mingyu was in the room all the time, fidgeting. Agatha walked up to her and said, "Can you stop shaking? It's no use walking back and forth."
Feng Mingyu stared at her, "Let me ask you, why did the emperor summon Luo Ling?"
"Well," Agatha said mysteriously, "Guess what, why would the emperor summon a commoner whom he has never met for no reason? Huh?" After speaking, she winked at her.
"You!" Feng Mingyu listened to her tone and said, "It's you!"
"Sure enough, you're really smart. Right now, your majesty is probably discussing marriage with my brother and Miss Luo Ling." Agatha said with a smile.
"What? Make a kiss!" Feng Mingyu felt his head buzzing, a little dizzy, and wanted Luo Ling to make a kiss?
"I want to go out!" Feng Mingyu got up and walked towards the door.
Agatha stopped her, "Mr. Feng, it won't help if you go out, there are still officers and soldiers stopping you outside. The emperor will not let you see Miss Luo Ling."
Feng Mingyu gasped, "Do you want to keep me here forever?"
Just at this time, a young eunuch came over and said, "Feng Mingyu accepts the order."
Feng Mingyu couldn't calm down all the time, and he didn't like the eunuch when he saw it. Agora pulled her, "Kneel down quickly."
Feng Mingyu knelt down unwillingly, and only listened to the eunuch saying, "Feng Mingyu listens to the decree, I think you are generous and loyal, and you are dedicated to the country. Now I allow you to dissolve the engagement with Feng Luoling. I will give you a thousand taels of gold and a hundred acres of fertile land. Dozens of maidservants, this is it."
What!The veins on Feng Mingyu's forehead were exposed, and he looked up at the eunuch viciously.
"Accept the order, it's cheap for you." The eunuch said to her arrogantly.
Feng Mingyu got up, snatched the imperial decree, quickly read it, and sure enough it said that the engagement was to be terminated, she gritted her teeth, "Why did the emperor reward me for no reason?"
"Well, you want to thank your cousin, who is now conferred the title of princess by the emperor, and is going to marry Prince Anxi. You can leave the palace now, go and receive your reward." The eunuch turned and left after finishing speaking. .
Feng Mingyu was limp on the ground, why did it happen?Seeing this, Agatha walked over and said, "You should be satisfied."
"Get out!" Feng Mingyu pulled out his arm that was touched by her, forced himself to stand up, and walked out of the room in a daze.
☆, in dire straits
"Your Majesty, I heard that Anxi and Anxi got married. That woman is just an ordinary woman, and she has already been engaged to someone else. The humble official thinks this is inappropriate." The speaker was Li Xun, the prime minister of the current dynasty, a confidant specially promoted by the emperor.
"Oh?" Tang Wenzong said, "Aiqing means to oppose this marriage?"
Li Xun said, "The woman's origin is unknown, and it is inappropriate to marry Prince Anxi now."
"She has no father and no mother. I have already conferred her the title of princess of the Tang Dynasty and given her a mansion and money. There will be no disadvantages for the Anxi Kingdom to marry me as the princess of the Tang Dynasty. Besides, this woman was chosen by Ke Dalu himself." Tang Wenzong said.
Qiu Shiliang said, "What the emperor said is very true. Anxi is a small country, and it is nothing to worry about. It is an honor for him to marry any woman in my Tang Dynasty."
The emperor nodded, only to hear another minister say at this time, "Your Majesty, I heard that the woman has a marriage contract, not to mention anything else, this is to let their lovers separate from each other." It was Prime Minister Zheng Zhu who spoke.
Qiu Shiliang stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the country is small, family matters are important, and personal matters are small. I think this matter is trivial. How can Mr. Zheng compare the love between men and women with state affairs?"
"You put the people first, Your Majesty, please think twice." Zheng Zhu continued.
Tang Wenzong said sternly, "Okay, you don't need to say too much, I have made a decree on the marriage, so how can you go back on your word? Lovers don't need to argue." After he finished speaking, he asked, "How is the princess now? "
An official said, "Back to the emperor, the princess has been settled in the princess's mansion, and I will take good care of her."
"En." Tang Wenzong nodded, "Take good care of the princess, teach her etiquette, and marry Ke Dalu next spring. What else do you love?"
"Reporting to the emperor, I heard that Feng Mingyu, a commoner, refused to accept the order, as long as his fiancée, and asked to meet the emperor for many days, was stopped. How should I deal with it?"
The emperor's face was calm, "It's just a mere scumbag. It would be good if I didn't chop off his head for the crime of resisting the decree. Still want to see me? Throw him out, and he is not allowed to approach the palace, let alone the princess." .”
"Yes."
Zheng Zhu looked at the emperor and thought deeply, "Your Majesty, no, since Feng Mingyu is at the gate of the palace, and he doesn't want rewards, it means that he is not greedy for glory and wealth, and has a deep love for his fiancee. Your Majesty, please think again."
Tang Wenzong frowned, "Retire!"
Xiao Luoling was locked in the princess's mansion all day long, and no outsiders were allowed to approach her. She was unhappy and couldn't see Feng Mingyu. Could it be that she really wanted to marry this resting prince?
"Luo Ling, why don't you eat something." Ke Dalu put the plate on the table.
Xiao Luoling looked at him coldly, "Prince, you and I just met by chance, why do you insist on marrying me? I have no affection for you, Prince, please let me go."
Kodalu said, "In our country, when you see a girl you love, you must try to marry her back home. Only in this way are you a real warrior and a man."
"Hehe, don't the prince feel despicable relying on the emperor's decree?" Xiao Luoling said with a sneer.
Ke Dalu's face was a bit ugly, "This is your emperor's will, how can you be despicable? Moreover, when I arrive in Anxi Kingdom, I will enjoy inexhaustible glory and wealth. After I ascend the throne, you will be the queen. Under one person, ten thousand Above all, what are you dissatisfied with?"
Xiao Luoling closed her eyes, "So what, it's just like a puppet."
Ke Dalu lost his smile, grabbed her sleeve, stared at her and said, "Now that the imperial decree has been issued, the fact that can no longer be changed, if you resist the decree, you will be killed. Why are you so stubborn!"
Xiao Luoling looked at him with red eyes, "You have never loved anyone, so you are the one who is stubborn."
"No." Ke Dalu said, "I love you, I fell in love with you at first sight. Luo Ling, I want you to be happy."
Xiao Luoling said, "Since you want to make me happy, then let me go."
"Impossible!" Ke Dalu let go of her hand, "I will definitely let you follow me obediently!" After speaking, he stepped out.
Xiao Luoling closed her eyes again, tears falling down.
Feng Mingyu had no way to see Xiao Luoling, and this day she was wandering around the princess' mansion again, but the soldiers guarding the gate just wouldn't let her in.
Feng Mingyu shouted at the door, "Luo Ling! Luo Ling!"
"Bold! You also called the Princess's name? Get lost!" A guard came over and scolded her.
Feng Mingyu's eyes turned red, "You bastards, you are keeping her under house arrest!"
"Hmph, if you dare to speak nonsense again, I won't be polite." The leading guard said.
"What? Still want to ignore human life?" Feng Mingyu asked her with a cold face.
"Come on! Beat her out! Don't allow her to approach the princess mansion!" the guard shouted sharply.
Then, several guards with guns knocked Feng Mingyu to the ground.
"Stop!" A clear female voice came, and several guards saw it, and hurriedly stopped.
Feng Mingyu propped up his arms, struggled to get up from the ground, sprayed blood on the guard's face, and looked at him contemptuously.
The lead guard was furious, and wanted to go to her side to make a move, but Agatha stood in front of Feng Mingyu and said, "Why do you want to beat her?"
"She has no law in her eyes and is causing trouble at the gate of the princess's mansion." A few soldiers said.
Agatha looked at Feng Mingyu, who was full of injuries but refused to give in, and looked at the guards, and said, "But it's even more wrong for you to beat people without authorization. I didn't expect that the soldiers of Datang were so uneducated."
"Princess, this is our internal matter. I hope the princess will not interfere. Besides, this is to protect the princess of your Anxi kingdom." The leading guard said to Agatha.
Agatha glared at him, then pulled Feng Mingyu away.
Feng Mingyu broke free from her hand, looked at her coldly and said, "So, are you satisfied? I didn't expect the prince and princess of Anxi Kingdom to be so obscene and want to steal other people's wives as wives."
Agatha said, "This is the imperial decree of the emperor. It is a supreme thing to be married to Anxi, and how many people wish for it."
"Bah." Feng Mingyu spat, "It's just using the emperor's will to cover up my despicableness."
"you!"
Agatha turned blue with anger, and said, "Whatever you say now, the marriage has become a fait accompli. Why are you doing useless things?"
"Hehe." Feng Mingyu sneered and left sullenly.
Feng Mingyu seemed to have lost her soul for a few days, lingering in the restaurant all day long, but she didn't expect that ancient wine was like fruit juice, so she drank a few more glasses.She went out that day and watched the people coming and going on the street, feeling a sense of loneliness. Suddenly she missed her home, milk tea, her car, the office, and everything at that time.She looked at the sky, a tear fell down her ear, she suddenly squatted down with her head in her arms, sobbing softly, Luo Ling, what should I do?
"Hey, don't get in the way here." Someone kicked him.
Feng Mingyu raised his head, wiped away his tears suddenly in a panic, stood up, bowed and said, "Little prince. I don't know if it's the prince, please forgive me."
"So it was you." Li Yong looked at her excitedly and said, "What happened to your face? Who bullied you?"
Feng Mingyu was a little embarrassed, "It's nothing, thank you Prince for your concern, why did you come here?"
Li Yong said, "Come with me."
When the two arrived in a private room, Li Yong said with a smile, "After listening to your opinion that day, my father, Emperor Longyan Dayue, originally wanted to find you, but my mother kept letting me study in the palace, so I was able to come out today. I met you here."
"Why is the prince looking for me?" Feng Mingyu nodded slightly, but Li Yong didn't know that she had actually gone to the palace long ago.
"Of course it is to learn from a teacher. My father dislikes those teachers who are too superficial, and asks three questions. He wants to find a talented person for me, but my father is busy with government affairs, so he forgot for a while." Li Yong said.
Feng Mingyu said hastily, "How can a grassroots man be able to be the prince's teacher?"
"This statement is wrong. You are humble, brave, and respectable. If you refuse to teach me, then you are too arrogant and look down on me."
"Prince, no! Don't say that, the grassroots have no such intentions." Feng Mingyu cupped his hands.
"Then, let's be friends first, and I will tell my father to test you personally." Li Yong said.
Feng Mingyu thought deeply, maybe this Li Yong can save Luo Ling, she said, "That's okay. Can the prince promise me something?"
"What's the matter?" Li Yong asked.
"Don't tell others about the two of us, otherwise, if the Holy Majesty finds out that I have little knowledge and misled the prince, my head will be lost." Feng Mingyu said seriously.
"This," Li Yong said, "alright."
"Then let's pull the hook." Feng Mingyu said with a faint smile.
After all, Li Yong was still a child, so he also said with a smile, "Pull the hook."
"Teacher, I've been waiting for a long time." Li Yong smiled and entered a box in a small restaurant.
Feng Mingyu said hastily, "I condescend to let His Highness come here, Caomin is already very sorry. Your Highness, I, can't bear the title of teacher."
"From now on, you are my teacher, there is no need to shirk, or I will cut off your head." Li Yong said.
"Yes." Feng Mingyu broke into a cold sweat.
"I wonder if Your Highness knows about the recent marriage with Anxi Kingdom?" Feng Mingyu asked.
Li Yong shook his head, "I only know that my father appointed a woman as princess to marry Anxi, but I don't know anything else."
"Your Highness, this woman has a marriage contract with someone else, and the resting prince Kodalu is forcing her to marry her. Now, the woman is separated from her fiancé Lao Yan, and she has been crying all day long. The Anxi Kingdom is a small country, the emperor now wants to marry her. It breaks up our lovers, what does His Highness think?" Feng Mingyu said.
Li Yong frowned and looked at her, "Why does the teacher know so well? Besides, you are just ordinary people, how can you talk about state affairs?"
Feng Mingyu looked at him and said, "Little prince, if we talk about the important affairs of the country, the life and death of the people is not a big issue? In the past dynasties, how many people were displaced and caused riots, which led to the demise of the dynasty. Recently, I heard that the princess did not think about eating and drinking all day long. When Anxi Kingdom wants to marry her, I'm afraid it will be a cold corpse." Feng Mingyu did not tell him that the princess is Xiao Luoling.
Li Yong looked at her in disbelief, "According to the teacher..."
Feng Mingyu told the whole story one by one, and said, "Your Highness, although this matter is risky, it is also a good time for you to flex your muscles."
Li Yong clenched his fists and said, "Okay! I'll go and tell my father, thank you for your teaching."
Feng Mingyu looked at the leaving figure of the little prince, and then took out Bai Juyi's letter. Save this letter for later use.
"Why did the emperor come to me recently?" Tang Wenzong looked up at Li Yong.
"Father, my son heard about the recent marriage with the Anxi Kingdom, so I came here to ask the godfather." Li Yongxiao stood upright.
"Oh?" Tang Wenzong was really surprised. At a young age, Li Yong began to want to discuss state affairs. "What can the emperor ask for advice?"
"My child heard that the woman had already had a marriage contract, but now she remarried to someone else, admiring the glory and wealth, and she couldn't be consistent. She violated the legacy of her ancestors and disobeyed women's morals. She should be executed." Li Yong said.
Tang Wenzong's expression was serious, "It was the father who allowed her to cancel the engagement!"
"Oh? Really?" Li Yong frowned and thought, "So, that woman is not willing to marry the resting prince?"
"Presumptuous, she dares not obey my will!" Tang Wenzong said.
Li Yong smiled and said, "Father, please calm down. If ordinary people dare not disobey, but my child heard that the princess shed tears all day long, and her unmarried husband was beaten repeatedly. Torn apart alive."
Tang Wenzong looked sternly, "What exactly is my son going to say?"
"Father, there are five rituals in China, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust. It is inhumane to beat mandarin ducks with sticks, and let a loving couple separate from each other. It is unrighteous for a wife to remarry and her husband to be displaced. It is impolite to recklessly make an order without asking why. In a small country like Er, it is unwise to harm the common people. Love the people like children, but now they treat them like nothing, and it is unbelievable. The princess married King Anxi, and all benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trust are lost."
"Bold!" Tang Wenzong said, "Are you scolding me?"
"I don't dare, my son just thinks that a wise ruler is virtuous and benevolent, so that he can be righteous. Now my son hears about the two of them, and I feel a little sad." Mr. Li said.
Tang Wenzong thought about his words carefully, not to mention that Li Yong offended him, but he was able to speak in an orderly manner, and he was really surprised that he had grown so much.
"Imperial son, my father has already promised Anxi Kingdom to marry them, how can I go back on my word?" Tang Wenzong said.
"Father, my child did not say that I would repent. My Tang Dynasty has hundreds of miles of mountains and rivers, countless soldiers and horses, and countless fertile fields. The Anxi Kingdom will pay tribute to my Tang Dynasty every year, respect me as the king, and him as a minister. Father should show With the majestic power of my Great Tang, how can I be afraid of that mere Anxi Kingdom. So, regarding the matter of getting married, my father was led by the nose by the prince's words. This is not the demeanor of my Great Tang monarch."
Tang Wenzong looked at Li Yong fixedly, walked to his side, and said, "Who taught you these things?"
"The queen mother let the child read books, and the emperor father let the child understand the people's sentiments, and the child learned from it." Li Yong said.
Tang Wenzong frowned and said, "You mean to oppose this marriage?"
"Yes, father, when Ke Dalu marries the princess, I am afraid that he will be accompanied by a cold corpse, and then father will even be looked down upon by the Anxi kingdom." Mr. Li said.
Tang Wenzong took a few steps, turned to look at Li Yong and said, "Father will think about this matter carefully." He just wondered when this child became so bold and eloquent.
"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Feng Mingyu hurriedly asked when he saw Li Yong approaching in good spirits.
Li Yong smiled and said, "Father seems to be a little shaken. Although I contradicted him, he seemed happier and took me and my mother to play together. Teacher, it is really thanks to you."
"Really?" Feng Mingyu said, "That's good, you can continue to persuade the emperor tomorrow."
Li Yong looked at Feng Mingyu with a half-smile, "Why is Teacher so sad about this matter?"
Feng Mingyu paused, "Return to Your Highness, in fact, the princess is my fiancée."
"What?" Li Yong was incredulous, "Is it your fiancée? Why...why didn't you say it earlier?"
Feng Mingyu smiled wryly, "What's the use of saying earlier."
Li Yong looked at the scar on her face and frowned.
In the back garden of the imperial palace, Li Yong stood beside Tang Wenzong and said, "Father, my son recently heard that the Sichuan Jiedu envoy rebelled. There are high mountains and the emperor is far away. They use their military power to commit crimes and even want to become kings themselves." Last year Father sent Liu Zhiwen to resist, but he was cowardly and incompetent, and turned against him. My son thinks that we should send troops to suppress it as soon as possible."
Tang Wenzong looked at him and said, "Who does my son think can take on this great task?"
"I don't dare to speak rashly, but I heard that Qian Heming, the leader of the Forbidden Army, is brave and resourceful, and can take on this great task."
"Hahaha." Tang Wenzong said with a smile, "In my opinion, let him guard the border."
Li Yong grinned and smiled innocently. The emperor looked at him thoughtfully, then squatted beside him and said, "My lord, tell father honestly, who taught you? Why do you think those teachers of yours Are they all pedantic people?"
Li Yong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Does Father want to see him?"
Tang Wenzong took a deep breath, it turned out that someone really gave advice, "Hehe, it seems that my son found a teacher by himself, but he didn't explain it to me."
Li Yongdao, "My boy's master is very humble, and he will never dare to see his father until he makes progress."
"Oh? Is there such a person? Then I want to meet him. You take him to the Golden Temple tomorrow, and I will meet him in person." Tang Wenzong said.
"Yes, Father."
After returning, Tang Wenzong went down
