Chapter 832 The Princess Poems
After Li You asked Hou Junji in detail about the situation of meeting Li Shimin, he smiled and said, "Hey, how big is it? It doesn't matter."
Hou Junji asked in confusion: "Your Majesty has issued an order to confine Your Highness the Crown Prince and you. Isn't it serious?"
Li You said: "General Hou, the matter of being confined is always under the Qianniu Guard or Baiqiu Shi. Why did my father choose the Flying Tiger Army? Everyone knows that the Flying Tiger Army is my Li You's direct line. Aren't he worried that the Flying Tiger Army will resist the order?
Also, my father knows that your General Hou is the father-in-law of the Crown Prince and that you are close to me, why did he choose to let you execute this matter?"
When Hou Junji heard this, he suddenly realized, and said, "Yes, I also think it's strange. After you said this, I understand a little. Your Majesty wants to be faced and must punish you and His Highness the Crown Prince. But he is worried that you will be hurt, so he sent me and the Feihu Army to carry out the task of being confined."
Li You said: "When you see His Highness the Crown Prince, tell him what his father means, and tell him not to do anything, eat and sleep."
Hou Junji said happily: "I understand, I will inform the Crown Prince now." After that, he said goodbye and left.
So far, Li You's guess is correct.
Li Shimin was wise and powerful, and had a very broad mind. Although he was very angry this time, he did not have the idea of knocking down a boat of people with one stroke. Although Li Chengqian and Li You contradicted him in public and won the approval of the ministers. However, Li Shimin still did not believe it if Li Chengqian and Li You were planning to be ill.
However, he believed that the situation that happened in the morning court was very serious, especially since envoys from dozens of countries gathered in Chang'an, and the one with the greatest influence on these countries was Li You. In order to avoid further deterioration of the situation, it was necessary for him to control Li Chengqian and Li You first, gain time for himself, and investigate, analyze and study the matter calmly.
At the same time, he was worried that someone would use this matter to make trouble. If there was any problem with Li Chengqian and Li You, the matter would be complicated. He considered it over and over again and decided to send Hou Junji and Feihu Army to carry out the confinement mission. He did not even order the confiscation of the radio stations of Li Chengqian and Li You and others, and understood that he did not really want to punish them.
After Hou Jun gathered and left, Pei Dilan and Murong Bo were both worried about their brother-in-law, especially Murong Bo, who was the first time he came to Chang'an and encountered such a thing directly.
He said to Murong Ling and said, "Ling'er, you're not talking all day long about how powerful Li You is and how trusted by His Majesty. How could such a thing happen? He won't be in danger, right?"
Murong Ling trusted Li You very much, and she said indifferently: "What's the matter? I believe your highness will handle it."
The brother and sister went to see Li You together.
Pei Dilan trusts Li You more than Murong Bo. He has been in Chang'an for so long. No matter where he goes, whenever he hears someone mentioning Li You, he will be filled with admiration and admiration, and he has a very high prestige between the court and the country.
Pei Dilan and Li You have experienced many things together and are confident in Li You's abilities. He and Rena also went to see Li You together.
When Pei Dilan, Murong Bo and others came to Li You's living room, they heard a hilarious voice coming from inside. It turned out that Li You's other wives and concubines had already arrived here, and they were writing poems inside.
Li You had nothing to do for the time being, and in order to calm everyone's emotions, he was chanting poems with his wife and enjoying the joy of the boudoir.
At this time, Wu Xu was writing a poem. She said, "Your Highness, I am in Kabul, and I am not by your side, so I can't help but miss you all the time. So I wrote a poem and I'm just showing off my ugly face in front of you and your sisters!
She chanted:
Seeing Zhu Cheng Bi's thoughts are everywhere, I am haggard and separated to remember you.
I don’t believe that I’ll cry more than before, so I will unbox the pomegranate skirt.”
Wu Zetian is not only an outstanding politician, but also a talented poet. His poems left so far include "Ruyi Niang", "The Announcement of the Imperial Palace on the La Day" and "The Poem of the Flowers urging", "Traveling the Ding", "Song of the Ding", "Early Spring Night Banquet", "The Music of the Mingtang of Tang Dynasty. Song of the Song of the Tang Dynasty" and other works, which have been included in "Complete Tang Poems".
"What a poem." Everyone praised it.
Pei Dilan and Murong Bo saw that Li You were so worried, their worries were much lessened. They pushed the door and walked in.
After everyone exchanged greetings, Murong Ling said with some dissatisfaction: "Husband, I have also written a poem, please judge it."
She chanted:
The parting is silent and the moon is silent, the bright moon has light and people have feelings.
After parting, I miss you like the moon, and I reach the capital through the clouds and water.”
"Oh, sister, you are so well written!" Xiao Wanyu praised first.
"Yes, yes." Everyone exclaimed unanimously.
Li You commented: "Wife, I have to say that the poem you made is of very high standard. In the first two lines of the poem, each of which has the words "man" and "moon", which makes the syntax of the first two lines of the poem more complicated. In fact, the first two lines of the poem can also be changed to "left people without words but with emotions, the bright moon with light but with silent", or in order to match the level and tone, it can also be changed to "left people without words but with emotions, with light and moon with light but with silent". In this way, people and moon are described separately. The first sentence describes people and the next sentence describes the moon, but Ling'er here describes people and the moon with intertwined words. In the two lines, people and moon have farewells from the moonlight to the lonely lovesickness of their daughter under the moonlight... From beginning to end, people and moon are combined, using people to describe the moon, and using the moon to shape people, writing very sentimental and unique.
What a good poem.
I dare say that this poem can definitely establish Ling'er's position in the women's poetry world."
Li You's praise made other wives envious, but Murong Ling's poem is indeed very high-level, and she can't accept it.
Murong Ling wrote a lot of poems when she was fine, but Xiao Wanyu and others were all talented women, so she never dared to take them out. She felt that this poem was a bit novel at the beginning, but later she worked hard to polish it slowly. Today, she finally made a big splash.
Murong Ling was very proud. She imitated Li You's appearance back then and said with a smile: "I can't do anything, I know how to eat it, it will work as soon as I eat it! Hi."
"Ha ha ha ha."
“Geehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Everyone laughed together.
As soon as he heard the prince and the others write poems, the white tiger quickly called the magpie over. The magpie sent away the maids and came to serve Li You and others by themselves.
Seeing everyone happy, the magpie said, "Prince, Princess, I have a suggestion. The prince's poems are well done. I have compiled them and published several collections of poems.
All the princesses and nobles are talented women, and the poems they make can be compared with those of the prince. I want to sort out your princes poems and also produce a collection of poems. What do you think?"
Writing books and biography is the dream of every literati. Li You's wives are all arrogant and talented, and everyone has many excellent works. The magpies' proposal immediately aroused their strong response.
The princesses immediately pulled the magpie and started discussing the matter in a chattering manner, and immediately forgot Li You, Pei Dilan and Murong Bo.
Baihu was overjoyed and closed his eyes to figure out how much the princess’ poetry collection could sell. He planned to use the money to dig a fish pond in his backyard and fish for fun if he had nothing to do.
When Li You and the men saw that they had nothing to do with him, they came to Li You's study to talk.
Murong Bo said, "Li You, you are now being confined by Your Majesty. Is there any danger in the future?" Although he is a Khan of a vassal state, he is also the lord of a country after all. From Li Shimin's perspective, he believes that this matter will not be easily solved.
Li You said: "This matter starts from a long time ago..." He introduced in detail the grudge between himself and Li Chengqian and Li Tai.
"So that's the case. This Li Tai is so hateful." Murong Bo's father Murong Shun was murdered by his younger brother Murong Zun. He hated such a conspiracy very much.
Pei Dilan has also heard of Hamid. Hamid was taken away by his younger brother. Pei Dilan is now the position of the prince. Standing on the same position as Li Chengqian, he also hates Li Tai's behavior very much.
He said: "Old Li, you did the right thing. Li Tai must not give him a chance to turn things around. We all support you."
Li You dare not let them participate in this matter, as it will easily cause misunderstandings and the result of the matter will be counterproductive.
He said, "Don't get involved in this matter, Your Highness and I can handle it properly."
Murong Bo asked, "What should I do about Tubo and Songzanganbu? Is he waiting for our next move?"
Li You and Songzan ganbu have agreed to help Songzan ganbu consolidate his rule, and the situation in front of him has had a very adverse impact on Tusfan's affairs.
Li You said: "You can do whatever you should do. I will get rid of the predicament in front of me as soon as possible and do my best to deal with the matter of Tusfan."
After Li You and Li Chengqian were confined, there was a lot of discussion between the government and the public, and there was also a great response in foreign missions, and people were in panic for a while.
When Cen Wenben learned that Li Shimin was confined to Li Chengqian and Li You, he was secretly happy. However, when he saw Li Shimin sending Hou Junji to lead the Flying Tiger Army to carry out the confinement mission, he immediately understood Li Shimin's thoughts and knew that he did not mean to severely punish them.
Cen Wenben cannot let this matter go to nothing, he will continue to add fuel to the fire.
After thinking about it carefully, he said to a confidant: "Do you understand this... do you understand?"
The confidant nodded and said, "Sir, I understand. Don't worry, the official will definitely bring him."
Li Tai was very depressed. He was scolded by Empress Changsun and asked him to return to Furong Garden and stay honestly, not to make trouble, nor allowed him to meet Li Shimin.
At this moment, Li Tai drooped his head and left the palace city dejectedly, crossing the imperial city and walking towards the Suzaku Gate.
