Fu Tang

Chapter 188

When Shi Xueting persuaded Li Congjia, Li Congjia had only one reaction: Divorce!

As a result, before these two words were uttered, Shi Xueting said calmly: "The Imperial Concubine and Concubine Xi are too busy, we should find something for them to do."

Shi Xueting was a little disgusted with Duan Susu who came to see Li Congjia when she had nothing to do before. He knew that the reason why Duan Susu was confident was because he felt that he had a big secret of Li Congjia, so he deliberately used this to threaten Li Congjia. Although she didn't say it, but But it has subconsciously manifested.

Shi Xueting felt that it would not do to let things go on like this, he needed to find an opponent for Duan Susu so that she could feel a little bit of crisis in her heart.

Li Congjia stared at him blankly, wondering if Shi Xueting used his harem as a Gu to feed him?Those princesses are all poisonous insects, just throw them in and see who is better?

Shi Xueting patted his head and said: "Don't worry too much, it's just a marriage anyway, if the Khitan really wanted to start a war, they would definitely not care about such a princess, and likewise, they wouldn't fight because of a princess. They raised troops when they were wronged, and if they fought for this reason, it can only mean that they want to fight."

Li Congjia thought about it for a while and felt that what he said was very reasonable, and the existence of Khitan has always made Li Congjia feel like a thorn in his throat. He felt that the other party would come looking for trouble at any time. Although he said that unless he can unify Asia, it is impossible to have an absolute sense of security. Even if Asia is unified, there will be other countries.

That being the case, why don't they give each other an excuse and let him fight the Khitan openly, then the cabinet should stop persuading him not to use force?

The only thing that makes Li Congjia feel more sorry is the Khitan princess, but no matter what it is, once it rises to the political level, sometimes conscience will even become a restriction, and Li Congjia can only do it in a limited range. Save your conscience.

Li Congjia turned around and agreed to Khitan's request for a marriage, which made the cabinet ministers lose their temper. Now even the imperial censor knows that if he wants to persuade the emperor to do something, it is best to bring the national teacher to the same position as them Come to the position, and then let the national teacher persuade the emperor, otherwise, they will never try to persuade the emperor.

To be honest, they were really curious about how the national teacher persuaded the emperor, but Yu Shi didn't dare to ask, after all, because they were always looking for trouble, Shi Xueting never gave them a good face.

But the imperial censor dare not, the cabinet ministers dare, they must find a way, or else rely on the national teacher for everything?Don't these ministers lose face?

So, as soon as the four met and discussed, they turned around and went to the National Teacher's Mansion to find Shi Xueting.

Shi Xueting was also very surprised to see a group of cabinet ministers coming. Fan Zhi was very quick to speak, and asked directly: "The relationship between the national teacher and His Majesty is extraordinary, but I don't know how to persuade His Majesty?"

Shi Xueting: Did you co-authors come to learn from the scriptures?

However... how would he say this kind of thing?Is it necessary to say that he and Li Congjia are the first to reason, and if they fail to reason, they will be "corporally punished"?

Shi Xueting had no choice but to put his palms together and said: "The poor monk just went to His Majesty to make a divination."

Fan Zhi and the others looked disbelieving, who is their emperor?When you see a dragon, you want to study what constitutes it. Do you think such a person believes in hexagrams?Believe it or not.

Seeing their expressions, Shi Xueting knew that they didn't believe them, so he smiled and said: "Your Majesty is not as unreasonable as you imagined, but you are all too gentlemen, when trying to persuade him, you are talking about righteousness. Although righteousness is good, sometimes it is not enough to be an absolute reason.”

Fan questioned: "Oh? How about the national teacher?"

Shi Xueting said: "It's very simple, just tell His Majesty the benefits of doing so, as long as it is beneficial to the country, he will regress."

Wei Renpu said: "No, no, this marriage is obviously beneficial to Datang. Didn't His Majesty disagree at the beginning?"

Shi Xueting shook his head: "He disagrees, he can only say that the benefits of this matter do not make him retreat."

Wang Pu asked, "Then why did he agree?"

Shi Xueting asked back: "Don't you think about persuading from another angle?"

Zhao Pu asked thoughtfully: "Another angle? For example, this time, how can we approach it from another angle?"

Marriage is a very complicated thing, but also a very simple thing, what angle does it have?

Shi Xueting coughed lightly and said: "Your Majesty has always had a bad impression of Khitan, Khitan wants to occupy the Central Plains, and His Majesty hates this, and has always wanted to pacify Khitan, so as to solve this serious problem, you know that, It’s just that everyone disagrees, so he’s holding back.”

Fan Zhi nodded and said: "Khitan wolves are well known for their ambitions, but... Although the country is big and warlike, it will surely perish. We must learn a lesson. Even if we want to fight, we must wait until the country is stable."

Shi Xueting smiled slightly and said: "That's true, that's right. If so, I'll tell him that marrying the Khitan princess doesn't hinder him. He can do whatever he wants. Don't you care which concubine he likes?" ? If the Khitan princess feels wronged and the Khitan raises troops because of this, it can only be said that the Khitan has long planned to raise troops, so he just has an excuse? And everyone will not object."

Four members of the cabinet: Can you still explain it like this? ? ? ? ? ?

Fan Zhi took a deep look at Shi Xueting, thinking that this person is really a good material for the imperial court, it would be a pity not to be an official, but no one is interested in having a political opponent, even if Shi Xueting is not worthy to be their opponent, they will always fight for him For the sake of future generations.

But what they didn't expect was that Li Congjia didn't say anything about the reason Shi Xueting said, it was all guessed by Shi Xueting!

After all, they have been together for so long, often when Li Congjia turns his eyes, Shi Xueting knows what he is thinking!

Wei Renpu coughed lightly and said, "So...after all, it's against morality."

Wei Renpu felt that fooling the emperor like this seemed to be a little bit of a conscience, but if you say that fooling you is not completely fooling you, this matter can be seen from this perspective.

The question is whose family married a concubine to fight against the concubine's family!Can we not be so weird?

Shi Xueting said frankly: "Your Majesty has always been flexible, as long as there are enough reasons, he will still agree."

The four members of the cabinet went back to their homes with a slow amount of information, each looking for their own wives, Shi Xueting's reasons made them feel a little indigestion, they always felt that this matter was like a white-haired horse, the whole reason was specious, but they The emperor will follow this, or...they will do the same next time?

Shi Xueting did not hide the fact that the cabinet formed a delegation to learn from the scriptures, and directly repeated it to Li Congjia. After hearing this, Li Congjia screamed: "Are you going to be so tricky? What if they come to fool me like this in the future? You really don't love me!"

Shi Xueting laughed: "What are you afraid of? Do you think it is easier to resist their so-called righteousness, or to refute these specious truths with them?"

Li Congjia looked at Shi Xueting seriously and said: "It's not easy, these people are all super talented, if I really want to quarrel with them, I can't scold them except for swearing, you know?"

Shi Xueting couldn't help but laugh, he never expected that Li Congjia would treat him like this.

Li Congjia watched Shi Xueting smile expressionlessly, and when he finished laughing, he said, "Anyway, if they fool me next time, I'll let you go."

Shi Xueting cleared his throat and said: "Don't worry, it's not easy for them to find such a reason, especially in the future... Once the marriage is in their consciousness, they think that marrying another country is equivalent to going to war with that country , presumably they will not easily advise you to marry a princess from another country."

Li Congjia stared at Shi Xueting with wide eyes. Now he began to suspect that Shi Xueting had thought of this question when he was persuading him!

That is to say, Shi Xueting persuaded him once, and then almost once and for all?What is this brain circuit thinking?

I have to say that Li Congjia instantly felt a lot more relaxed. These days, not everyone has a princess who wants to marry the Emperor Tang. If it is a princess from another country, the ministers can still lobby him to marry him under the banner of good for the country. Little ladies of this country—you even dare to control the emperor's harem, are you planning to rebel?

Li Congjia was very happy to have the Khitan Linhai princess Yelu Trigu carried into the Daming Palace, and Yelu Trigu was named Concubine Min.

Li Congjia didn't want to go to Yelu Trigu's place that night, and he didn't plan to share the bed with Yelu Trigu anyway, but he still felt that he had to make it clear.

After Li Congjia arrived at Yelu Trigu's place, he found that Yelu Trigu's face did not show any sadness and loneliness that might appear with his princess, but everything was as usual.

Unlike the soft and beautiful Duan Susu and the gorgeous Gao Xi, Yelu Trigu may not be as good-looking as them, but she has the heroic spirit of a grassland daughter. If she is not Li Congjia's concubine, Li Congjia may appreciate her a little more.

After Yelu Trigu saluted Li Congjia, Li Congjia didn't know what to say to her. He hadn't learned how to get along with women in his two lifetimes, especially when this woman was still his concubine.

Li Congjia was silent for a while before he said: "If you have any request, you can ask someone to find Chunsheng or Taofu. I will agree to anything that is not too much. It is not easy for you to come from a long way. Let's rest early."

Yelu Trigu looked at Li Congjia for a while before saying, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I understand."

Li Congjia asked with a question mark on his face: "What do you understand?"

Yelu Trigu said calmly: "I understand that it is impossible for me to win His Majesty's favor."

Li Congjia was a little curious: "Why do you think so?"

Could it be that this little lady is still playing with retreat?Otherwise, the explanation doesn't make sense. After all, Yelu Trigu doesn't seem like a person who accepts his fate.

Yelu Trigu smiled slightly. Her smile was unique and hearty, which made Li Congjia feel very comfortable——Since time travel, Li Congjia has rarely seen such a girl who doesn't hide her bright smile.

Yelu Trigu said: "Your Majesty already has a loved one in his heart. I am not as good as him in every way, so why should I expect extravagantly?"

Li Congjia thought that Yelu Trigu was referring to Zhou Ehuang, and felt sorry for Zhou Ehuang. He had no relationship with Zhou Ehuang, but Zhou Ehuang was still blocking the gun for him.

Li Congjia lost interest for a moment, waved his hand and said, "In that case, you should go to bed early."

When Li Congjia returned to Zichen Hall from the harem, he found Shi Xueting was here, and the hairs all over his body stood up: "Why are you here?"

Shi Xueting was obviously in a bad mood, and after hearing this, he said: "It seems that His Majesty doesn't want to see me anymore, so I will take my leave."

Li Congjia hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Is it just an accident, okay? What's wrong with you? You were the one who persuaded me to marry, but you are the one who is unhappy now. Why are you so hard to serve?"

After hearing this, Shi Xueting rolled his eyes immediately, and he just said a word, which caused a series of dislikes from Li Congjia.

Shi Xueting weighed it over and over again, thinking that it would be meaningless to waste time explaining on such a good night, so he said: "Today is also considered as the joy of His Majesty's wedding, the spring night is short, why not us..."

Li Congjia immediately begged for mercy: "There will be a court meeting tomorrow."

Shi Xueting pulled Li Congjia into the room and said, "Don't worry, I know it well."

Li Congjia looked sideways at Shi Xueting, and after realizing that he was indeed in a bad mood, he shut his mouth.

Li Congjia understands to some extent. If he thinks differently, he may also persuade Shi Xueting to marry the other party, as long as he doesn't touch him. Li Congjia's bottom line can also become very low in front of his lover and national affairs. It doesn't mean that it can be accepted without any obstacles.

Li Congjia felt that he couldn't accept it, so Shi Xueting probably couldn't accept it either, so he had to find a way to appease the other party.

Early the next morning, after Li Congjia woke up with a backache, Shi Xueting observed his face for a long while, then smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty has a happy face today, so there must be good news."

Li Congjia said angrily: "Good news? Are you going to give me a prince?"

Shi Xueting came over and touched his stomach and said: "If you want to give birth, you will give birth."

Having been molested a lot, although he was still a little shy, Li Congjia knew how to fight back and said directly: "Farewell, what if the ministers treat me like a monster?"

Shi Xueting said firmly, "Don't worry, I'm here."

Li Congjia trembled: "Stop, stop, stop talking nonsense, talk like you're really going to give birth, hurry up and tell me what's the good news?"

While helping him put on his coat, Shi Xueting said, "How do I know? I only know that there is good news, but I don't know what good news there is."

Li Congjia was curious by what he said, and had been waiting for the next report at the court meeting.

The ministers below were a little overwhelmed by Li Congjia's gaze, and couldn't help but look at each other, wanting to whisper but afraid of being recorded.

So Li Congjia waited for the entire court meeting without hearing any good news, and of course there was no bad news. He thought to himself that if Shi Xueting told him that there was no bad news, it was good news. The kind of beating that Xue Ting fought back!

After returning, Shi Xueting looked at Li Congjia's aggressive look and said, "Today is not over yet, what are you in a hurry for?"

Li Congjia was suffocated immediately, and sat silently behind the imperial case to review the papers. However, he was always thinking about the good news that Shi Xueting said, and kept scratching his head. After a while, he threw the pen and said: "I don't want to read Here you come!"

Shi Xueting was helpless: "Why do you get more and more impatient as you get older?"

Li Congjia glared: "Who is to blame if I can't sit still? It's fine if you know it in your heart, why are you telling me? Isn't this intentional to make me anxious?"

After all, now that Li Congjia is now, the ordinary good news is no longer good news. The real good news is probably equivalent to the news that Khitan will be attached to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, Li Congjia also knows this, and he can only imagine it in his dreams. I thought about it.

Shi Xueting said very frankly: "Because I really want to know, but I don't want to worry alone."

Li Congjia said angrily: "I know you don't love me anymore, divorce!"

Shi Xueting squinted his eyes and leaned over and said, "Looking for trouble again? Your waist isn't sore, is it?"

Li Congjia snorted: "Don't even think about going to the dragon bed if you are skinny again, you know?"

Just as Shi Xueting was about to say something, he heard Chunsheng standing outside and speaking very fast: "Report to Your Majesty, Concubine Min threw the imperial concubine into the Taiye Pond!"

Li Congjia was startled at the time, he turned his head to look at Shi Xueting and asked, "Is this the good news you said?"

Shi Xueting was a little uncertain: "It should be... isn't it?"

No matter how you look at it, this is not... good news, is it?

Li Congjia didn't talk nonsense with Shi Xueting, and hurried to the harem, Shi Xueting could only stay in Zichen Palace alone to wait for the news.

Li Congjia arrived at the Lingqi Hall where Duan Susu lived, and when he entered, he saw Yelu Trigu standing there still very calm and calm, and... Gao Xi who ran over and knelt in front of him crying.

Li Congjia thinks...Gao Xi is worthy of admiration. Don't look at her crying, but she speaks every word very clearly. He listened to Gao Xi and said: "Khitan girls don't know the rules at all. The noble concubine kindly taught her, but she was almost beaten by her." Killing, Your Majesty, you have to decide for the noble concubine."

Li Congjia coughed lightly and asked, "How is the noble concubine now?"

Gao Xi continued to cry and said: "Feng Yu said that we will not know whether there are sequelae until tomorrow."

Li Congjia raised his eyebrows and said, "That means there is no danger of life, right?"

Hearing this sentence, Gao Xi had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly said: "I don't understand, I have to listen to what Feng Yu says."

Gao Xi glanced at Feng Yu who was kneeling beside him as he spoke.

Feng Yu immediately said: "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is unconscious now, whether she can survive or not depends on God's will."

After hearing this, Li Congjia said only one sentence: "Think about it carefully, if something happens to the imperial concubine, you will be buried with her, understand? Now tell me, how is the imperial concubine's injury?"

Gao Xi and Feng Yu immediately groaned in their hearts. Gao Xi knew Li Congjia's sexual orientation. She thought that Li Congjia had no feelings for Yelu Trigu. From Li Congjia's standpoint, wouldn't it be best to find an excuse to kill her?

Why now that Gao Xi sent all the excuses to Li Congjia, he still sounded like he was on the side of Yelu Trigu?

Feng Yu didn't dare to turn back immediately, so he had to say: "Your Majesty Rong Chen will go and have a look."

Li Congjia nodded: "Go."

Feng Yu rolled over immediately, and came back after a while and said with a happy face: "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is auspicious, and she is fine."

Li Congjia said lightly "Yes", which made Gao Xi and Feng Yu feel a little flustered.

Li Congjia said: "Since the imperial concubine is safe and sound, let her rest well. Now... who can tell me exactly what happened?"

Just as Gao Xi wanted to speak, Li Congjia stopped him and said, "Since you have already said it just now, let Concubine Min come."

Gao Xi: Then you ask who can?

Yelu Trigu said frankly: "The imperial concubine cares too much, and she even asked me to kneel to her. If she was the queen, I would kneel willingly, but she is not. Why? What's more, your majesty didn't let anyone see him Just kneel down, what can the noble concubine do?"

Gao Xi hurriedly said after hearing this: "What nonsense are you talking about? It's not because you don't understand anything, and you can make mistakes in even the most basic etiquette. In order to prevent you from making big mistakes in the future, the imperial concubine kindly taught you, you How dare you do it! Your Majesty wants to decide for the noble concubine."

Before Li Congjia could speak, Yelu Trigu said coldly, "Even if you want to teach me etiquette, His Majesty should send someone here. What's more, what I should learn is Tang etiquette, not Dali etiquette."

Gao Xi's complexion changed and he said sharply, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Yelu Trigu raised his head and snorted, "Of course I'm not talking nonsense. If she hadn't gone too far, how could I have made such a foolish move? Your Majesty, the imperial concubine is clearly proud of being favored, and she doesn't take you seriously."

Li Congjia silently praised Yelu Trigu in his heart. Although the two people did not speak clearly, he still understood the ins and outs.

It is estimated that Duan Susu wanted to give Yelu Trigu a bad start first. After all, Dali and Khitan are strictly speaking about the same territory, and Duan Susu is a real princess, and Yelu Trigu was originally the daughter of a Khitan courtier. layer.

In the end, I didn't expect that I accidentally kicked them on the iron board. Yelu Trigu didn't talk nonsense with them, and directly crushed them with force!

At this time, Gao Xi also regretted it very much. She originally thought that Yelu Trigu was the kind of person who could do things without talking nonsense, and what she showed before was indeed the case. Who knew that she had become so eloquent at this moment?

Li Congjia was about to say something, when Chunsheng ran outside and said, "Your Majesty, the Minister of Honglu Temple has something important to report."

After Li Congjia heard this, Shi Xueting suddenly appeared in his mind saying that he had a happy event coming today.
