Crown Tang emperor

Li Tong just sat in the seat with arms folded and sneered, until Shangguan Wan'er stepped on the short table and stuck her chin into the knot, her face changed, she stood up from the seat and walked out the door, walking side by side Said: "It's still not suitable for me to be present. The Shangguan should order you to make your own decision."

"Li Shouyi, you..."

Shangguan Wan'er let out a mournful cry, and looked at Li Tong's back as she walked out of the hall, she gritted her teeth suddenly, and actually kicked the short bench flying away, and then the weight of her whole body hung directly on the white silk.

When Li Tong looked back, he couldn't help being a little dumbfounded. He hurriedly turned around and rushed back to the hall, drew out his saber and cut off the taut white silk. He clutched his throat and retched.

Seeing Shangguan Wan'er's miserable appearance, Li Tong was also a little speechless for a while, and just sat aside silently.

It took a while before Shangguan Wan'er stopped retching, and she just stared at Li Tong with squinting eyes.Li Tong felt a little embarrassed. Seeing the clear red mark on Shangguan Wan'er's fair neck, he couldn't help but be thankful that she had a light body, otherwise the fall might really hurt her throat.

"I have come to an understanding with the Holy Emperor, why should the Shangguan restrain you?"

Li Tong stretched out his hand to help Shangguan Wan'er up, but unexpectedly, the lady grabbed his arm and opened her mouth to bite. While biting, she stared at him, the sadness in her eyes almost dripped out.

Li Tong felt that he was somewhat wronged, so he simply let her vent it. After all, there was a leather armguard where she bit. Although it hurt a little, it was not serious.

He just raised his other hand with a wry smile, and gently rubbed off Shangguan Wan'er's flying eyebrows, so that it would be much more pleasing to the eye.Of course, the gnashing of teeth and the ferocious look could not compare to the usual elegance and beauty.

Sure enough, the woman was forced into a hurry, and it was just a trick of crying, making trouble, and hanging herself. Even Guan Wan'er, like Shangguan, was not immune.

This posture was maintained for a long time, so that saliva flowed from the corners of Shangguan Wan'er's gritted teeth. Li Tong tentatively pulled his arm, and then pulled it out.

Shangguan Wan'er slumped to the ground, her hair covered her face, and then she covered her face and began to cry, she reversed that set of procedures and performed it completely.

Chapter 0482 worldly oven, I also Shugu

The collapse of adults is often only a moment, but it is difficult to say which one is the reason.

When people live in this world, of course there will be pressure. It is specific to each person, but the ability to bear it is different.Even in the closest relationship, it is difficult to say that it is completely shared.

For example, Li Tong did not hide from the princess that he was planning to launch a coup, and the princess actually provided him with a lot of help in this process.But there are many worries in his heart, and he still can't fully confide them to the princess.

How he got along with his relatives after the coup, his aunt, his fourth uncle, these are also a kind of pressure for him.In a big way, it is the distribution and encroachment of power, and in a small way, it is the handling of family ethics.

The concubine Zheng is indeed a virtuous housemate with excellent family education, but because of this, Li Tong is a little ashamed to talk about the indescribable relationship between their Li family in front of the concubine.In front of other people, it is even more difficult to say.

Shangguan Wan'er is a rational and restrained person, many emotions are just buried in the bottom of her heart, most of them are gentle and kind in front of people.But no matter how high the endurance is, it has its limit after all. If the limit is reached and cannot be vented, people tend to self-destruct.

From the very beginning of the meeting today, Li Tong noticed that Shangguan Wan'er's mood was a little different from usual.Maybe it's the confusion about himself, maybe it's the guilt towards his grandma, or maybe there's a bit of bitterness that he couldn't ask for in love, it's hard to say clearly.

Li Tong also tried to be persuasive and persuasive, but it has to be said that with such an M physique, he is really not used to confiding his heart to others, so he can only force him with a tough attitude.

At present, it can be regarded as a test. This woman hides a great dissatisfaction with him in her heart. She may not be able to express it in words normally, but the behavior that erupts in a desperate situation can most directly reveal her heart.

Just looking at the woman biting her leather armguard with two rows of deep tooth marks, it is obvious that this time of begging for death is not simply to die loyally for Da Zhou.

But it's one thing to test it out, and how to respond and deal with it next is really a headache for Li Tong.But these troubles should be borne by him. If he hadn't forced Shangguan Wan'er to vent on the spot, maybe the next time they meet, it might really be just a cold corpse.

Ants are still alive, even in adversity, there are many reasons for people to live.Similarly, when people lose all hope and cannot find the meaning of their own existence, living becomes a kind of torture instead.

Shangguan Wan'er's heart is quite tenacious, she grew up from a mere criminal family in the inner palace to become the confidant of the Holy Emperor Wu Zetian, but this also represents all the value and significance of her first half of her life.

However, after this coup d'état, as Wu Zetian lost power and was placed under house arrest, she felt her own humbleness and powerlessness even more. The more sensitive her mind was, the greater the blow to her.

Shangguan Wan'er was still covering her face and weeping, Li Tong didn't know how to persuade her, so she simply walked out of the room, wandered in front of the corridor, rummaged for the utensils used for washing, and held a heavy copper basin in her hand, feeling the pain in her heart The idea is how much copper is this thing?

From this, it is associated with the money shortage that has always accompanied Datang. In the future, no matter whether he wants to occupy a corner or successfully counterattack the center, this is a problem that he must face and solve.

Thinking of this in his heart, he was a little clumsy to use a wooden bucket to draw some clear water from a well in the courtyard. He was not focused enough, and he didn't do these chores often. At the hem of my robe, my calf suddenly felt a biting cold.

"Your Highness, there is warm soup in the side verandah for backup."

The servant girl who was expelled from the Xianyuan just now came back for a walk against the wall. Although she didn't know what happened, she was a little panicked when she saw His Royal Highness drawing water herself. She reminded her before entering, took the copper basin and hurried to the verandah. go.No matter what happened, when the king came out to fetch water, it was not for drinking to quench his thirst.

Li Tong stood back in front of the hall with some embarrassment, waiting for the maid to bring a pot of warm soup.Of course, it’s just clear water, not dark dishes such as seaweed and egg drop soup. The ancients called hot water soup, and what’s added is soup.

"Leave it to me, step back."

When the palace man brought warm water, Li Tong raised his hand to take it and said something.

The palace attendant handed the copper basin to King Dai in a panic, and subconsciously turned his head to take a look inside the hall, but seeing that the figure of King Dai didn't move in his line of sight, he lowered his head even more tactfully, and stepped back to a certain distance Only then did he turn around and walk away.

Li Tong returned to the hall with the copper basin, Shangguan Wan'er was still covering her face and weeping, her thick hair was hanging like a waterfall in front of her body, she couldn't see her face at all, but the crying was obviously not as full of emotion as it was at first, and more It's like pointless crying.

"Wash your face, do you wash it yourself, or should I do it for you?"

Li Tong put the copper basin in front of Shangguan Wan'er, and asked a question.

However, after hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er just covered her face and turned her body to one side, sobbing as before.

When Li Tong saw this, he was no longer polite, stretched out his hand to hold the pink neck and turned back, and used his right hand to lift up the drooping hair and handed it to his left hand, just like this, he grabbed the gathered hair root and pressed his head down directly.

Although Shangguan Wan'er was struggling a little at this time, she was basically docile, far less emotional than before, so docile that it made Li Tong faintly feel like breaking the law.

He didn't think about anything else, he pressed down on the back of Shangguan Wan'er's head with one hand, and bent his fingers together like a cup with the other hand, scooped up a handful of water and patted Shangguan Wan'er's wet cheek.The cheeks of the tentacle were as smooth as fat, which made him pause subconsciously.

A moment later, in order to hide his embarrassment, he snorted coldly and said, "Do you think I really have wasted too much time here? I have been so busy since last night. Although the general situation is initially determined, there are still too many personnel disturbances. Can you make people worry?" Some?"

"Um……"

Li Tong didn't pay attention to a murmur that seemed to be there, but when he scooped up water and slapped his face again, the gentle and smooth face rubbed against his palm, especially the bulge in the palm like the tip of a tongue. Tapping the inside of the mouth.

His palm froze suddenly, and after a while, his five fingers clasped tightly on the cherry lips and the smooth and white chin.Shangguan Wan'er subconsciously snorted, supported the edge of the basin with both hands, turned her head slightly sideways, and water drops fell from her slightly red and swollen eyelids, as if overflowing the corners of her eyes.

Li Tong's left hand holding the hair was withdrawn suddenly, and Shangguan Wan'er tilted her head slightly in pain, and groaned again, and then slapped her smooth face with her wet palm.

"You idlers in the inner palace are used to moaning without illness. There are so many innocent people in the workshop who have no clothes in winter and no food day and night. How can there be warm soup ready all day? Or the fragrant soup with spices? A pot of soup, a few restaurants ! For daily consumption, ordinary people can’t keep up with their families, so what qualifications do you have to lament how difficult it is for a stranger?”

While drinking in a low voice, Li Tong wiped Shangguan Wan'er's face indiscriminately.

The enchanting look of this woman makes people unsure, and Li Tong also feels more why there is such a saying as a beast in clothes. At least now, the moral satisfaction brought about by these words can allow him to slightly conceal his true emotions.

While speaking, he turned around to look for the silk cloth to wipe his face, but he forgot that he was still holding Shangguan Wan'er's full hair in his left hand. Shangguan Wan'er was hit by this area, and half of her body hit his knee, struggling to support her knee He got up and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Let me do it myself."

She raised her finger and tapped the back of Li Tong's hand behind her head, and when she let go, she got up and hurried towards the inner house.

Li Tong twitched lightly with his fingertips, a strong and persistent fragrance, a moment later he sneered, washed his hands in warm water in the copper basin, dried the water stains and sat back on the mat.

When Shangguan Wan'er returned, her whole body was completely new, her hair was tied into a bun, and her plain face returned to its usual beauty, but the blush on her cheeks was more delicate than makeup.

Her skirt was covered with a small shirt with feathers turned out, but the neck was slightly slender, which could not well conceal the red mark around the neck.When he turned the screen and walked into the outer hall, he didn't take a seat, but stood in front of Li Tong's seat with his head bowed.

"Don't do such stupid things in the future, who can avoid disagreement? I am not the chief of the criminal department, and I can't decide your life or death. Only when you are alive, can you feel sad or happy, mud Selling the jade body is just a few extra meals for the worms. You treat me with resentment or hatred, there is always some reason for it, but those snakes and worms will not show mercy to you."

The meaning of these words is comforting, but Shangguan Wan'er always felt that it was a bit harsh to hear, she frowned subconsciously, and couldn't help but look up at Li Tong, her tone of resentment was unavoidable: "The old feelings in His Highness's mouth are so stingy to the point of being stingy." Are you unwilling to part with the coffin?"

Li Tong wanted to share with Shangguan Wan'er about the magnificence of stacking graves on Beimang Mountain after hearing the words. No matter how beautiful you are, you will be nothing but a dead bone that insects and ants will not favor .

But thinking that Shangguan Wan'er's emotions had just gone through ups and downs, she stopped saying such unwelcome words, and just said again: "Come out of the palace with me?"

Shangguan Wan'er still shook her head, but her tone of voice was a little more emotional than before: "Your Majesty's kindness to me is not for short-term love. Although my concubine is humble and weak, I don't want to leave each other and stay away at this time. Your Highness can read old love and give me a favor." I am deeply favored, I am already deeply grateful to be able to get this, and I really dare not think about it again."

Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's answer, Li Tong sighed again.Some things, even for him now, still feel a little difficult.People have their own social identities, and the more prominent they are, the greater the restrictions on people.Right now, he really did not dare to make any definite promises to Shangguan Wan'er.

"Your Highness doesn't need to worry about concubines. Being born is not short-term. Before meeting His Highness, a concubine is here. The rest of my life may be long or short, so naturally I just work hard."

While talking, Shangguan Wan'er slowly bowed in front of Li Tong, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness's grand plan is unfolding, and it reaches Qingyun. The concubine is just a vulgar way of life, not a beauty, and it is enough to be able to take a look at it." I am very happy. It is a pity that my fate is surly and I cannot be attached to the rest of my life. If I break up here, lovers will be at peace."

"You rest at ease first, and come to visit again when you are free."

Li Tong was silent for a long time, seeing that it was getting late, he got up and said, and walked out the door.Shangguan Wan'er walked on knees to see each other off, looking at Li Tong's back with ecstatic eyes.

After walking a few steps, Li Tong lowered his eyes to see the deep tooth marks on the armguard, his heart moved, he drew the knife and cut the tied leather rope with the blade, then turned back, and walked to Shangguan Wan'er who was leaning on the door to see him off, He bent down and placed it in front of her, stroked the top of her hair with his palm, and said softly: "Let's take this as a message. There are many promises, but the saying is hard to keep. But it's not up to you to decide whether or not to make a decision. Wait with peace of mind."

Shangguan Wan'er held the leather with both hands, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Your Highness said, although I won't take my life, it will make me suffer..."

"You are not the only one who is suffering. I am also just a grain of bean in this oven. I am suffering from cooking, or as a meal for others, or sprouting when it is time. Share the suffering at this time, and share the joy in the future."

Li Tong simply squatted down, supported Shangguan Wan'er's chin with one hand, brushed the red mark on the neck with the tip of the other finger, and sighed: "If you don't suffer the pain that hurts your bones, how can you know the hard work? But the rest of your life will not suffer from that time." , then there is nothing to be afraid of. When we met at the beginning of the year, can we know this day? Or if we don’t have a close relationship, we can keep a long-lasting relationship, and the rest of our lives will last forever, and we will never be unhappy.”

After finishing speaking, he stood up again and patted Shangguan Wan'er's smooth forehead: "This time I really left, I am really busy."

Shangguan Wan'er supported the edge of the door, knelt here, clutched the leather sleeve tightly, watched Li Tong's back disappear outside the garden gate, and only stepped back when she saw the figures of the palace people appearing in the field of vision. In the house.

She opened the box next to the bed, and there were neatly stacked manuscripts inside. She smoothed the leather sleeve carefully, and touched the still clear and deep tooth marks with her fingers. A trace of shame and regret flashed across her pretty face. Then he grinned, his teeth grinding together from side to side.

The slightly rough leather sleeves were attached to her cheeks, and after a while, the heat on her cheeks was even clearly felt by her fingers through the leather sleeves, so she put the leather sleeves back into the cage with some unsatisfactory intentions.

After the maids entered, they lowered their heads and tidied up the hall carefully, but after a while they didn't hear any obvious noise from the room, so they boldly approached and looked inward, only to see Shangguan Wan'er Letting her hair loose, she grabbed it behind her head with her hands.

"The servant girl came to make a bun for her."

Seeing this, the maid hurriedly stepped forward, picked up a tortoiseshell comb from the makeup table, and took the bundled hair from Shangguan Wan'er, and thoughtfully asked, "What kind of bun should you tie?" ?”

Shangguan Wan'er moved her head forward a little, then frowned, and asked an irrelevant question: "Hold tight, use more force!"

After subconsciously saying this, her pretty face flushed immediately, she turned around and coughed lightly, and asked seriously: "Where did you go just now? How could you leave me alone with His Highness..."

Chapter 0483 Brother Yifeng, Xuanhe Wushuang

In Jishanfang of Shendu City, cars and horses gather inside and outside the gate of the workshop, and there are many pedestrians walking towards it one after another in the north and south of Tianjie Street.

The end of the crowd was a mansion located in the south of Jishanfang.The mansion was originally the residence of Wu Chengsi, king of Wei, but now it is the residence of King Lu.King Lu is Li Shouli, the original heir of King Yong. In today's court, he will report his meritorious service and become a prince, and he will be appointed as a young prisoner in the palace.

In front of the palace gate, there are government officials who are responsible for receiving the guests who come here continuously. At this time, seven or eight days have passed since the coup that changed the general situation of the whole world, and the situation in Shendu City has basically returned to stability, at least on the surface. What a sign of confusion.

Therefore, the faces of all the guests coming and going were full of joy, calling friends inside and outside the palace, the atmosphere was very lively.

At this time, the central hall of the Wangfu was already full of seats, and many late guests could only linger in the courtyard temporarily, waiting for the staff of the Wangfu to arrange their seats.Even so, there are still few people who show any dissatisfaction, and they are quite open-minded.

Although the mansion has been idle for more than half a year, it has been built quite magnificently. After some repairs, it can be directly moved in.However, Lu Wang disliked too many empty houses in his former residence, so he simply demolished all the rooms and verandahs on the east side of the nave, and built a large-scale polo field.

Right now, a polo match is being held on the polo field. The situation is tense and exciting. The proud Lu Wang Li Shouli is leading his team to gallop on the field, dribbling the ball with a stick in his hand. There was a burst of thunder and cheers.

After Li Shouli personally scored a goal that mattered to the outcome, he couldn't help but feel even more proud. While controlling the extremely handsome yellow pussy horse under his crotch, he galloped around the field, waved his staff to the surrounding cheering crowd, and at the same time did not forget to taunt his opponents.

"What's the matter with you guys today? Could it be that you can't bear to take away the good horses in my stable? Haha, there are only three people in my house now. The hall is full of guests, the house is full of beauties, and the stables are full of famous horses. Since you want to have fun, how can you be stingy with things? !"

Li Shouli looked like a villain, and deliberately asked three good horses to be brought into the field for a walk around the field, and the golfers on the opposite side shouted one after another in anger.

Today's Li Shouli is not a shabby householder who could only look at other people's famous horses and drool in the old days. He was originally an important organizer and participant of polo matches in Shendu City, and now he is also the palace manager directly in charge of the idle stables in the battle. Young Prison, all kinds of famous horses are really filling the stables.

For example, the three steeds that are used as trophies today, their coats are shiny, silky like satin, strong and well-proportioned, and dragon-shaped. Each of them is a good horse in the market, which is enough to attract people to buy, but now they are just Medium stuff in Li Shouli's stable.

The golfers on the opposite side were screaming in anger, and it wasn't that they couldn't bear Lu Wang's showing off, but more of regret.Especially when they saw the steeds of the three good horses walking around the field, some people even clamored for another match, wanting to win this horse.

Li Shouli didn't pay attention to the clamor from the other side, but called the three outstanding performers to the front, and gave three famous horses to the three, which even aroused the applause of the onlookers, praising King Lu for his heroism and generosity.

After a polo match, Li Shouli did not enter the hall to entertain guests. There were too many guests today, and the big hall could no longer hold it.Unavoidably, the guests who had to attend the hall felt neglected, so they simply held their seats in the open air on the court.

Li Shouli got off his horse and sat on the ground, and asked the maids of the palace to directly lay out mats inside and outside the stadium, and set up several large urns and set up a bonfire. Large animals such as cattle, sheep, and camels were skinned and washed, and then roasted and steamed on the spot.

The so-called Prince Lu's Mansion has more than three, is really not a lie.After being newly conferred, there are as many as four to five hundred palace servants who have been rewarded in the ban alone. At this time, colorful butterflies usually walk among the guests sitting on the ground, so that every guest can receive meticulous care.

The barbecue on the fire grill soon began to simmer. Everyone sat around, holding silver plates while waiting for food, while singing and dancing. In this cold winter season, the scene was extremely hot.

At this moment, someone in the outer hall shouted loudly: "His Royal Highness King Yong has entered the workshop!"

Hearing this shout, everyone stopped the drama and music in front of them one after another, and stood up to greet each other.Many distinguished guests sitting in the hall, proud and complacent, looked even more excited at the moment, rushing out of the hall one by one, rushing straight into the square.

There were nearly a thousand guests who came to congratulate him today. Although most of them were the playmates of Lu Wang Li Shouli, there were still many famous people from the ruling and the public who came here.

Li Shouli alone may not be able to have such a great appeal, but if you add Yong Wang Li Shenzhi, it will be enough.In fact, most of today's congratulatory guests came for King Yong.

Today, after a series of awards from the imperial court, Li Shouli, the successor king of Yong, was granted the title of King Lu, while Li Shenzhi, the original king, changed his title to King Yong. Even Li Guangshun, the king of Guanghan, who was far away in the middle of Shu, was proclaimed King of Han today.The three brothers are also princes, and they are the youngest and most prominent members of the clan today.

When Li Tong entered the workshop surrounded by the guards, he saw the crowd rushing out of Lu Wang's mansion like a tide, blocking up the wide street.

Seeing such a big battle, Li Tong couldn't laugh or cry for a while, he couldn't go straight to the chaotic crowd, so he had to temporarily retreat to the Wuhou shop near the Fangmen, and then Yang Sixu and others recruited Shiliu in batches Come and see you.

Shiliu people have such great enthusiasm for his family, which also shows that the current situation is developing for the better.Although the time since the coup d'etat is not too long, Shiliu have initially accepted the new order after the coup d'etat.

After a noisy courteous meeting, when Li Tong entered Prince Lu's mansion, half an hour had passed. Seeing Li Shouli whose face was flushed by the bonfire, he couldn't help giving him an angry look.

"King Yong is in charge of important tasks. He is not an idler with a clean and simple job like mine. Please forgive me a little and allow my brother to enter the house to worship his father!"

Li Shouli waved his arms, trying to open a passage in the crowd, and finally dragged Li Tong to the back hall, and explained with some anxiety: "The door is always open to welcome customers. I really didn't expect there to be so many people." People come to congratulate you, but you can't just keep people out of the workshop..."

Li Tong didn't mean to blame Li Shouli for his extravagance, not to mention the emperor's heir Li Dan who had already supervised the country and took charge of the government, Li Tong and his three brothers were already the face of the clan.

This can be regarded as the blessing of their grandmother Wu Zetian. After several cleanings of Li Tang's clan, not many survived, and most of them were exiled to various places. Therefore, the first wave of bonuses for returning to the Tang Dynasty was almost nonexistent. what a competitor.

Although this false popularity that seems to be full of guests has no practical effect, it is not completely meaningless, at least it represents Shiliu's enthusiasm for changing Zhou to Tang.Even Li Dan, the heir of the emperor, should not be too harsh at this time of year, ordering their brothers to close the door to thank guests.

"The people in the city of God are welcoming the new era, and it's not beautiful to stop it. But second brother, you have to keep in mind the scale. It's okay to play and have fun. Don't talk about specific personnel matters lightly, so as not to give others trouble."

Li Tong is busy with too many serious things right now, and Li Shouli is just responsible for these inefficient social behaviors.

Although Li Shouli is usually careless and less than meticulous and thoughtful, after all, he has survived that period of hardship, and there are still differences. At least his performance before and after the coup was remarkable, which also made Li Tong feel at ease. many things.

"Saburo, don't worry, when it comes to having fun, I won't be left behind. But if people try to trick me, I will never respond!"

Li Shouli patted his chest to reassure, and then his expression became a little gloomy, and he sighed: "Our brothers will finally see the sunny day, but it's a pity that brother is far away in the middle of Shu, and can't share this wealth and joy in time. Sanlang, you will soon And... well, I don't know when the family will be reunited, so let's say goodbye!"
