Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 1719

This atmosphere is not right!

The empress was driven away!

Seeing Empress Changsun leave Wangbei Pavilion, Guo Ye said, "Your Majesty, what important military affairs do you want to tell me?"

His Majesty Li Er showed embarrassment, and said: "Actually, there is nothing wrong, just trying to find a way to send the queen away. Alas, only women and villains are difficult to raise. The ancients are sincere and do not deceive me. Guo Aiqing, I told you just now. You have to take what you say to heart. If you want to attack Goguryeo, you must make good friends with Silla. This important task, I will leave it to you!"

Guo Ye said: "I must do my best!"

Next, it's a bit chilly.

Guo Ye sat for a while, stood up, and was about to leave. His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and said, "Guo Aiqing, don't worry, I still have something to ask you."

"Your Majesty, please speak!"

"This time you went to Sichuan to capture Luo Ersapo, who is also the monk Tianfu. It is not very clear in the memorial. You are here, tell me in detail."

This request was a bit strange. Guo Ye didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in His Majesty Li Er's gourd, so he described his experience in Sichuan in detail.

His Majesty Li Er finished listening, and said: "Guo Aiqing, this is not what I want to hear. I want to ask you one thing, that is, when you were arresting Monk Tianfu, did you see a person...a woman!"

"woman?"

"That is to say, is there a woman beside Monk Tianfu? This woman is not tall, she looks a bit like a Tianzhu woman, and she is good at playing the pipa."

Guo Ye suddenly realized, and said, "Your Majesty, you mean Pipa girl?"

"Exactly!"

"Your Majesty Qizuo, I have not seen such a woman."

His Majesty Li Er sighed, and said: "At the beginning, it was Luo Er Sapo who dedicated her to me. Later, Luo Er Sapo ran away, and the Pipa girl disappeared. In fact, what does this big case of treason have to do with her? , why do you need to run? Could it be that I can't tolerate a little girl? If you see her, don't hurt her life, and bring her to me."

Guo Ye thought to himself, it seems that His Majesty Li Er really cannot forget his love for Pipa Girl.Such a big case of treason can be easily exposed, it is really a seed of infatuation!

However, this matter cannot go along with His Majesty Li Er, and the Pipa girl has really been found back.Pipa girl and His Majesty Li Er lived together day and night, and found a chance to assassinate His Majesty Li Er. How can Guo Ye justify it?

Guo Yedao: "Your Majesty's words, I dare not agree with you! Since the pipa girl escaped with Luoer Sapo, she must have been implicated. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, no matter the master or servant in a major case of treason, he should be executed. Your Majesty is rich all over the world. There are so many beauties in China, why bother to fall in love with just one flower?"

"There are so many beauties? Hmph!"

Mentioning this, His Majesty Li Er became furious and said, "I'm here to ask you, in the harem, who is considered a beautiful woman besides Guanyin's maidservant?"

Guo Yexin said how could we know this, besides, even if we knew, it would be really inappropriate to criticize your wife in front of you!

He said: "I heard that Your Majesty has four concubines, Concubine Wei, Concubine Yin, Concubine Yan, and Concubine Yang. All of them are from famous families, virtuous and virtuous. And they all gave birth to princes for Your Majesty. It must be extremely beautiful."

"Guo Aiqing, you really are ignorant!" His Majesty Li Er shook his head and said, "The reason why these people are concubines is not because they are virtuous and virtuous, nor because they are unparalleled in beauty, but because they give I gave birth to a prince!"

Guo Ye said: "Since they are favored by His Majesty, how can they not be considered beauties?" The implication is, Your Majesty Li Er, it is not kind of you to say that, you don't think they are beautiful, how can you make her belly bigger?Isn't this picking up the bowl to eat meat, putting down the chopsticks and cursing?

His Majesty Li Er said: "Guo Aiqing, do you know that according to the law, the queen is in charge of the harem."

"Wei Chen knows."

"Then do you know how to arrange for my servants every day?"

Guo Ye was sweating on his forehead when he heard this, and thought to himself, Your Majesty Li Er, has our friendship reached this point?You talk to me about such a private topic?

Chapter 1552 These days, model couples are not reliable (2)

Before Guo Ye could answer, His Majesty Li Er continued: "I completely obey the arrangement of Guanyin's maid! The queen is the master of the harem, and no matter whether it is a concubine or a palace eunuch, she is the only one to follow. So, who can give birth to me, Who can become a noble concubine does not depend on me, but on Guanyin's servant girl."

His Majesty Li Er paused for a moment, and continued: "Only the pipa girl, who has not entered the palace, can not be dominated by the Guanyin servant girl."

It doesn't seem appropriate to always let His Majesty Li Er speak alone without talking to himself.Guo Ye dared to say: "But I heard that your four concubines are all from famous families. It is always reasonable for the empress to let them sleep in bed."

"Hey, what famous family? To put it bluntly, they are all the daughters of criminal officials!" His Majesty Li Er sighed, and said: "I think back then, when I conquered the world, many princes were against me. After they were defeated, the women's families had Some were sent to the palace, and some were sent to the Qin Palace. Later, this matter gradually became a custom. The women in the harem are all from the wives of criminal officials."

Now Guo Ye understands that His Majesty Li Er's harem is equivalent to picking up trash.The condition for entering His Majesty Li Er's harem is very simple, that is, if his father and elder brother committed a crime, he would be sent in.As for how it looks, it doesn't matter.Then, these people let Empress Changsun make such a selection, the quality of His Majesty Li Er's harem is really worrying...

No wonder His Majesty Li Er was so fascinated by the pipa girl, I dare say he was usually hungry!Unexpectedly, the model couple, Empress Changsun and His Majesty Li Er, are not so harmonious in private, and the husband sings and the wife follows.

In fact, this approach of Empress Changsun is also understandable.Those who have the ability to challenge their queen status in the harem are killed in the bud, which fully guarantees the harmony of the harem.It's just a bit bitter, His Majesty Li Er.Of course, she can't go too far.Those who serve His Majesty Li Er's bed must have an above-average appearance, but there are no stunning beauties.

Guo Ye said: "Your Majesty, the affairs of the harem are your family affairs. What you mean by telling me this is..."

"I send the queen away, one purpose is to ask you about the pipa girl, and the other purpose is to find you as a consultant. In the Sui Dynasty, the emperor's harem was full of beautiful girls selected by the capital. But in my harem, there are all the daughters of criminal officials, regardless of whether they are ugly or handsome. I want to change this rule, what does Guo Aiqing think?"

"Then how does His Majesty want to change?"

"Now my Tang Dynasty is peaceful, and all officials are loyal to their duties. There are not so many officials breaking the law. What I mean...can you learn from the Sui Dynasty and select a group of beautiful women from the people?"

In history, His Majesty Li Er's heart began to sprout after the death of Empress Changsun, and he recruited beautiful women.Wu Meiniang also entered the palace under such circumstances.

Now that history has been changed by Guo Ye, Empress Changsun did not die of illness.His Majesty Li Er was aroused by the pipa girl, and was about to kill him.Or how to say, three years to learn well, three days to learn badly.Influenced by Luo Er Suo Po, His Majesty Li Er gradually drifted away on the road of being a fool.

Guo Ye said: "Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate. King You of Zhou doted on Baosi, and Fenghuo played with the princes. King Zhou of Shang Dynasty loved Daji, and died in Lutai. Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty was licentious and innocent, which made me prosperous in Tang Dynasty. How can you choose a girl? No, isn't it..."

His Majesty Li Er's face darkened, and he said, "Qin Guogong, are you comparing me to a subjugated king?"

"I don't dare. But the past is the teacher of the future. Please learn from the lessons of the previous dynasty and don't indulge in female sex."

After Guo Ye finished speaking, he also felt a little regretful.This kind of offending work should be done by Wei Zheng, he likes to do such troublesome things.Why should I shake my wit?But at that time, why couldn't I restrain my impulse and blurt out these remonstrances?

That's right, it's Empress Changsun.

I seem to feel that in the dispute between His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun, I should side with Empress Changsun?Could it be... I really have a secret love for the eldest grandson empress?

His Majesty Li Er didn't know that Guo Ye was after his wife. He took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Qin, you are getting more and more boring! Why are you so young and like an old man? I just want to have some fun. Are you pouring cold water on me? I think you are Wei Zheng's second!"

Guo Ye secretly gave His Majesty Li Er a thumbs up. As expected of an emperor through the ages, he adjusted his emotions so quickly!He said with a smile: "Master Wei Zhengwei is loyal and upright, he is a model for courtiers. Your Majesty, you are complimenting me!"

His Majesty Li Er said: "Okay, okay, okay, you are all loyal ministers. Sometimes I really want someone who understands my heart... Forget it, let's not talk about this. I will leave the matter to you. No matter what method you use, you must ensure the covenant between Datang and Silla."

His Majesty Li Er finally changed the subject, and Guo Ye heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "When will the humble minister leave?"

"I can't say this well! I just got the news from bad people that King Jin Baijing of Silla is dead, and Jin Deman has officially ascended the throne. It stands to reason that Silla should send envoys to Chang'an in a few days. Ask for my canonization. When the time comes, you will go to Silla as my imperial envoy and canonize Jindeman as the king of Lelang County. When our alliance is confirmed, hehe, I will avenge my children for the Chinese people... "

Guo Ye's eyes lit up, and he said, "You mean, we are going to attack Goguryeo?"

"The navy's ships are almost ready. As soon as the alliance with Silla is concluded, I will raise my army and destroy Goguryeo!"

Guo Ye reminded: "Your Majesty, there is another country, have you forgotten?"

"What country?"

"Baekje! Although Baekje is the weakest among the three kingdoms, it can always afford 10,000+ troops. How are you going to deal with it?"
