Make a large pot of beef stew, shave some deer breasts, and add some pickles.
Without changing any place, a square table was set up in the kitchen. The three men and women munched and ate heartily. Li Po did not forget his mother-in-law and Hong Yanzhu'er, so he was given some as gifts.
In the past, if I distributed some to the attendants, there would not be much left.
There was a sound of chewing inside and outside the kitchen. Those who didn't know it would definitely be shocked. Gangsters actually entered the palace of the dignified Han Dynasty?
No one would praise His Highness the King of Han's cooking skill without knowing it. There is no difference between flattering him and asking for death. The servant just thinks that being able to eat food cooked by His Highness the King of Han must be a blessing from three lives.
If you talk too much, you will definitely be punished by God.
As a younger sister, Li Chun didn't have so many scruples. As he ate, he sighed with emotion. Ever since he left Yunnei, he had never tasted such delicacies. It was a good taste. He was probably still feeling proud of himself. After a little trickery today, he still managed to get it.
There was an unexpected harvest, not bad, not bad.
Astana expressed his appreciation through actions. He didn't stop using his chopsticks from the moment he started eating, and he glanced outside the door from time to time. He probably felt a little dissatisfied with giving such delicious food to the attendants.
After a while, her mouth was full of food, unlike a princess from a big country. If Chen Xiaoyi and others were to see her, she would definitely say a few harsh words about Beihu not knowing etiquette and so on.
Of course, the food that Li Po prepared casually for him is not actually top-notch. The victory lies in its strong taste, which is very suitable for the taste of northerners. If it were a Jiangnan person, such as Cen Wenwen and his like, who were present, they would be faced with such greasy food.
, the ones you use will not be so sweet.
When he came, Li Po stroked Li Chun's head and said: "Some people say that people can't be arrogant, but they can't be arrogant... It's quite inappropriate for you to talk to Wang Shangshu today. Although you and Wang He are teachers and students,
Friendship, but Wang He is a member of the Wang family after all. If you meddle in the affairs of the Wang family rashly, you will arouse resentment if you are not careful. It will not be helpful in major matters, and it is actually difficult to take care of personal relationships."
"Wang Shangshu doesn't want to argue with you. He just cares about your status. He doesn't respect you. You are so overwhelming and arrogant, but you have no flesh and blood to support you. A wise man would not take it. If it were your sister-in-law, you would definitely not be able to do it."
Will do it.”
"I think back when we were humble, we suffered from many adversities, but we didn't realize how great those people were. The truth lies in this... I am proud and indomitable. I will make achievements in the future, so why should I be arrogant?
Showing it to others only makes them laugh."
Listening and listening, Li Chun stood solemnly and lowered his head to listen to the instruction.
Ashtian Xiang also raised his ears, and his eyes when looking at the man were finally stained with many colorful colors. The Turkic hero could not explain many great truths.
That night, the palace of King Han was not peaceful. The King of Han cooked in person and did not deliberately avoid people, so he made a lot of noise. The cooks were naturally a little distraught after hearing this, and the servants were also at a loss what to do.
When one's status reaches a certain level, every word and deed affects people's hearts. The behavior of nobles also has a certain range. No one can act arbitrarily. They can do whatever they want. Sometimes if they go out of line, they may cause trouble.
.
Fortunately, there was a mistress with a very strong heart in the back house. After hearing this, she only frowned slightly and ordered not to talk about it.
So in the evening, Li Po, who had eaten and drank enough and taught the girl a lesson, had to face the tigress alone.
The couple muttered a few words, and then started to move their fists and kicks in a tacit understanding. After a rough fight, they finally stopped contentedly.
Well, this family is actually not a stickler for rules.
When he got up the next day, Li Po finished dressing up, had breakfast, and then, under his wife's half-smiling gaze, he supported his sore waist, touched his swollen eye circles, and strolled to the study.
Originally, he wanted to summon Chen Xiaoyi and others to discuss the matter today, but he gave up because his wife broke the rule of not slapping someone in the face again last night.
But time is indeed very tight. Full-scale military mobilization is imminent, and there are many things to do. It is enough to adjust it occasionally. If it stays like this all day long, there will be no need to fight the upcoming war.
The only thing that is somewhat gratifying now is that the Liubu Tang Yamen and the Zhongshu Council, as well as the Han Palace's assistants, have all played a role, which indeed makes people worry a lot.
Of course, this is also indispensable for the fact that he, the King of Han, is able to control himself well, and that everyone is willing to support him and help him achieve his goals. It is just because the world is uncertain and the enemy is facing, he has not yet tasted the pain of being suppressed by these official agencies.
In fact, these are situations that every king who leads a group of people must face. It only depends on whether everyone is smart and has good means. They can stabilize the country and make the world a wise king and a sage, and his reputation will last forever.
Those with mediocre means can only maintain their success, while those with inferior means may become prisoners and be reviled by future generations.
"I have met His Highness."
Entering the study, Wang Qi from the Record Office was already waiting inside. Li Po's life was very regular these days. He would go to the study to handle official duties in the morning until noon. After lunch, he would go to the government office to sit in charge, and in the evening, he would return to the office again.
study.
This made the people below feel at ease. Not only could they find His Highness the King of Han, but they also didn't have to wander around in the "danger-ridden" palace of the King of Han, like the Turkic kid before who bumped into the noble and was beaten with a black nose and a swollen face.
Wang Qi, the internal secretary, also had a much easier time. She came to the study in the morning and supervised the cleaning, and sorted and sorted the confidential documents that had been passed on. Well, she was actually similar to the later secretary.
It's just that Li Po, who is sensitive today, felt that something was a little strange. The problem was with Wang Qi. His eyes flickered, and there must be something wrong in his heart. Of course, no matter who saw the swollen eye circles of His Highness the King of Han, he would be surprised, right? It was different.
Some people don't dare to talk too much, while others just nag.
He muttered in his heart that it is rare to see something strange. Who doesn't know that the Princess of Han has a fierce nature, so what does it mean to punch her husband twice?
But when he sat in front of the desk, a different answer was placed in front of him.
The desk looked the same as usual. The accumulation of documents was making people have a headache just looking at it. The difference was that there was a letter placed neatly in the middle of the desk.
Li Po picked it up and took a look, "His Royal Highness, the King of Han, has personally signed it."
As soon as the familiar Juanxiu handwriting came into view, Li Po's heart moved. He turned around and asked, "Pei Shiqing sent someone here? When did it arrive?"
Wang Qi was slightly panicked, "It was Governor Pei who sent someone here last night...but he didn't dare to disturb the king Yaxing, so he delayed for a while. Please forgive me."
Ah, last night... damn, the rumors spread faster than the later electronic signals. Didn't we just go to the kitchen? It's still elegant... Why don't I know where Ya is?
She was a little angry and had not forgotten her ability to express anger on others. She immediately glared at Wang Qi fiercely, causing this talented woman to shrink back and Zhan Zhan did not dare to say anything.
Looking back, I played with the letter for a long time, and finally a sneer appeared on the corner of my mouth. Are Li Yuan and his son going to repeat their old tricks? Do you really think we are stupid?
To this day, let alone he has nothing to do with that person, even if there is something, can a little personal relationship still allow the two families to shake hands and make peace, putting an end to the war?
Thinking of this, Li Po couldn't help but feel a little angry. Li Yuan and his son came from a wealthy family in Guanxi. They had a condescending and domineering feeling during their several interactions. Not to mention that the two families have fought against each other so far. Although the Tang army was killed by him, he was disgraced.
But if you think about it carefully, in every battle, the Tang army took the initiative and took the initiative.
That kind of tough momentum is something that other princes don't have, and this is what makes Li Po most uncomfortable.
Why? Just because your ancestors came from the Eight Pillar Kingdom of the Western Wei Dynasty? Bah, I have tolerated you for a long time, okay?
Unknowingly, the letter was already in his hands, and it also laid the most profound foundation stone for his determination to send troops to Kansai.
After a while, he calmly smoothed the letter, opened the seal, took out the letter and looked at it.
There is no doubt that this letter was indeed written by Princess Li Xiuning of Pingyang. The familiar handwriting and familiar tone are no different from talking in person.
The study became quiet. Wang Qi took a peek, and various rumors from outside appeared in her mind.
Although there was no signature on the letter, the handwriting could not be hidden from anyone. It must have been written by a woman, and Pei Shiqing sent someone to deliver it hurriedly. She would not have thought that His Highness the King of Han would leave anything in Jiangjun or Shangdang. In fact, it was nothing.
It's easy to guess, isn't it?
Imagine the story of the young King of Han and his entanglement with a noble girl from Guanxi. Wang Qi's heart beat faster and she had the urge to write down something. If the King of Han hadn't been too majestic, she would have wanted to go over and take a look at what was written in the letter.
Something happened.
Is it to express the sincere feelings after separation? Or is it to settle the feud between the two families? In fact, no matter what it is, it is enough to become a model for legends passed down from generation to generation.
Of course, you must report it to the princess later. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. His Highness the King of Han’s eyes were swollen. It must have been the cooking last night that made the princess excited.
Well, I don't know if the princess will chase His Highness the King of Han with a sword after knowing this. Thinking of this, Wang Qi maliciously imagined the scene and couldn't help laughing silently.
In fact, there is no pink ambiguity in Li Xiuning's letter. It begins with a direct statement that he was sent a letter by his father's order, advising Li Po not to raise another army. It is better for the two families to discuss and form a good relationship to create a better world together.
Such a great cause.
The whole story is about cold business, but Li Po can also detect traces of helplessness and anger in it, just like when the two met in Jiangjun, they were entangled and unable to extricate themselves.
Li Po smiled when he put down the letter and thought to himself, are you going to be Juliet? But where is Romeo? Just as he thought, a little personal love can't change anything.
The only possibility is that after everyone has seen each other, they may leave a little leeway. It actually depends on the mood of the men at that time.
