Chapter 10 Resignation
Although the Turkic horse milk wine was not strong, it was a little sour in its mouth. Li Ke didn't like it. After three glasses of wine, Li Ke moved his nest to the seat that originally belonged to Kang Sumi, leaving the last seat of the saucy to Kang Sumi, who looked extremely ugly.
Jie Li had the first words, but Kang Sumi did not dare to disobey, so he had to lower his head and sit on the last seat.
Li Ke's drinking was only a small episode, but it did not affect the good mood of Jie Li and the Turkic nobles at all. Jie Li waved his hand and the banquet continued.
"To congratulate me on the great victory of the Turks, thank you for the blessing of the Heavenly God of Consciousness. You can drink this cup with me." Jie Li raised his wine glass and whispered to everyone in the tent.
"Xie Khan gave him wine." Everyone stood up to respond, picked up the wine glass in their hands and drank it all.
The Turkic celebration banquet was even simpler, and there were not as many ways as the Tang Dynasty. After a tour of wine, everyone put down their wine glasses and feasted.
Li Ke has been busy dealing with all kinds of trivial matters since the afternoon. Before he could actually eat, his belly was empty, especially after drinking a few glasses of wine, he felt even more hungry.
Li Ke looked at the person beside him, picked up the dagger at his hand, cut off the mutton as usual, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.
Although the Turkic horse milk wine was not in line with Li Ke's appetite, the barbecue was still quite grilled. Even though it was not as exquisite as the palace, it did not lose its original taste.
The barbecue with a suitable heat, simple coarse salt seasoning, and no extra decoration. It is the most authentic roasted lamb in Mobei, just in line with Li Ke's wishes. Li Ke kept eating a lot of food in his hands and mouth.
Jie Li, who was sitting in the upper head, looked at Li Ke eating deliciously below, and couldn't help but laugh and sighed, "I have Turkic food, but I still have the appetite for the third prince?"
Li Ke put down the meat in his hand and replied: "Although the Turkic food is different from the Tang Dynasty, it has a unique taste and is very delicious."
Jie Li laughed and said, "Hahaha, although the third prince is a Tang Dynasty man, he is good at drinking and eating meat. He is also a straightforward person, but he is similar to my Turkic man."
Li Ke said: "I never drank when I was in the palace. It was the first time I was there today, and Khan laughed."
Jie Li waved his hand and smiled and said, "There are no ones who don't drink alcohol, but since there is good wine, how can there be no beauty? Just now, the third prince tasted my Turkic wine and came to see the Turkic beauty, how is it compared to the Tang girl?"
After Jie Li finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and the door of the tent was pushed open by the waiter outside the door. Then, "dongdongdongdongdong", with a dense and light drumbeat sounded in Li Ke's ears, two teams of four Turkic women in two teams entered one after another, and flew into Li Ke's eyes.
Li Ke looked at these Turkic women with high noses, black pupils with a hint of light blue, and thick and dense eyebrows, which was really different from Han women.
These Turkic women intersected their feet, held the willow waist with their left hand and raised their right hand. Their dance steps were light, like snow flying; their posture was graceful, like a stunning shadow. These women danced in the tent with the sounds of the pipa, guzheng, and jealous drums, and instantly caught everyone's eyes.
Those who can be used by Jie Li to dance at the banquet are naturally the best choice, and their appearance and dance posture will not be bad, but the clothes they wear really made Li Ke not know where to place his eyes.
Although it was already winter, these Turkic women were wearing very thin clothes, wearing a layer of close-fitting light clothes, silver jewelry on their heads, and light red ribbons, showing their smooth and slender waists naked in front of everyone.
The Turkic people were open, and the Turkic nobles even regarded dancers as playthings, so naturally they would not think anything was wrong. However, in Li Ke's eyes, Li Ke didn't know what to do.
Li Ke is not just a serious person. But with his current age, he is not easy to be too calm. Moreover, he has never been a traitor in both lives, so he is indeed not a veteran.
"Third Prince, how about me, a Turkic woman?" Jie Li asked with interest when he saw Li Ke's appearance.
Li Ke was slightly stunned, and after a moment, he replied: "This dance is very different from the gracefulness of Tang Dynasty, but it has its own merits."
After hearing Li Ke's words, Jie Li shook his head and said, "Ben Khan is not asking me about the dance of Turkic, but these dancing beauties. The third prince answered the wrong answer."
Li Ke had already thought of answering vaguely, but he didn't expect that Jie Li would still ask questions. Li Ke could only reluctantly answer: "Beauties are like dancers, and they all have their own merits."
"Hahaha."
Jie Li was used to seeing Li Ke’s mature and unstoppable appearance. He had never seen Li Ke in such a embarrassing manner. He also felt that this was what a young man should have. Jie Li looked at Li Ke’s appearance and couldn’t help feeling very happy.
Jie Li said to Li Ke: "The third prince is right. However, if a man is alive, how can he not have a beauty without a beauty? The third prince just tasted my Turkic wine. Now, how about it?
Jie Li said, waved his hand and ordered one of the beautiful Turkic women to sit next to Li Ke.
Li Ke didn't expect Jie Li to make such arrangements in this big tent, and his face turned red with shame.
My sister loves pretty, and Turkic women are no exception. Although Li Ke is young, she looks very handsome. She loves this dancer when she sees it. In addition, Li Ke has a noble status, so she is even more interested.
How could this woman sit aside honestly? As soon as she sat down, she wanted to get to Li Ke.
Suddenly, Li Ke was restless and didn't even know where to put his hand.
Seeing this, Kang Sumi, who was squeezed to sit in the last seat by Li Ke, had a thought in his heart and stood up and said to Jie Li: "Today's banquet is to celebrate the great victory of our Turkic victory. He also asked the proton and the dancer to perform dances for the Khan together to show the sincerity of the Tang Dynasty's seeking peace."
Li Ke couldn't help but frown. He didn't know why Kang Sumi targeted him again and again.
It would be fine if Li Ke really danced with a rise and rose. After all, Li Shimin often danced with a rise and said, but Kang Sumi asked Li Ke to dance with the Turkic dancer to offer Jie Li, which was considered humiliating to Li Ke.
Li Ke immediately replied coldly: "Li Ke is not good at this, I am afraid that Lord Kang will be disappointed."
How could Kang Sumi let Li Ke go easily? Kang Sumi said: "It doesn't matter if your highness is not good at dancing. You just need to follow the dancer to make just a fun."
As soon as Kang Sumi said, it was not just Li Ke, but Su Dingfang and Wang Xuance, who were sitting behind Li Ke, also turned cold.
Kang Sumi's words are different from those of Jie Li and Li Ke. This is no longer a joke with Li Ke, or even a humiliation of the prince or the national system.
Before Li Ke could speak, Wang Xuance had already stood up. He stood behind Li Ke, glared at Kang Sumi, and asked, "Master Kang, be careful of his words. The King of Shu is my prince of the Tang Dynasty and a noble man in heaven. Is it just for you to have fun?"
Kang Sumi was shocked by Wang Xuance's words for a moment. He didn't expect that Wang Xuance's reaction would be so intense, so he replied: "Today's banquet is to celebrate Khan. Is the third prince not even giving Khan's face? The third prince is too insincere."
Seeing Wang Xuance's strength, Kang Sumi actually carried out Jie Li Khan, hoping to use this to suppress Wang Xuance's momentum.
Wang Xuance said: "What? Can Lord Kang represent Khan's meaning? The alliance between the two countries is determined by Your Majesty and Khan. Why do you need to make noise? What's more, my Highness asked to go north to be a magnanimous person, and traveling thousands of miles without any obstacles, this has already brought the greatest sincerity. Lord Kang's words may contain evil intentions!"
After hearing Wang Xuance's words, Kang Sumi's back became cold and unconsciously looked towards Jie Li's direction. He knew Jie Li's temperament better than anyone else. Wang Xuance's words just now were enough to make Jie Li dissatisfied with him.
At this time, Kang Sumi was not thinking about how to make things difficult for Li Ke. What he was most concerned about was how not to make Jie Li feel dissatisfied with him.
At this time, Li Ke also heard Wang Xuance’s implication. Li Ke took advantage of the situation and showed three points of shame and seven points of displeasure. He said to Jie Li: "Report to Khan, Li Ke has drunk too hard just now and felt uncomfortable. He is willing to resign and return to the tent to rest. If there is any inappropriateness, I hope Khan will forgive me."
