Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty - Chapter 203

This year is the 22nd year of Zhenguan and the 22nd year of His Majesty Li Er’s succession. There are fewer and fewer veteran officials in the DPRK. Nearly zero. Could it be Wang Tu in the whole world, or Wang Chen, who is the shore of the earth, he was just asking Li Yuanying for a close attendant, but Li Yuanying dared to be angry with him?

Putting it on others, His Majesty Li Er will feel that the other party is getting impatient, but putting it on Li Yuanying, His Majesty Li Er feels quite normal. This kid has been accustomed to lawlessness since he was young.

His Majesty Li Er didn’t really want to ask Dai Ting away.

He just wanted to see if he promised Dai Ting enough benefits and a high enough position, whether Dai Ting was willing to stay with Li Yuanying as a waiter.

If Dai Ting is still willing to stay with Li Yuanying, it shows that he is somewhat loyal to Li Yuanying, and it’s okay to let him stay with Li Yuanying; if Dai Ting chooses fame and fortune, he doesn’t have to keep it. After all, he has no family ties. Not to mention loyalty, he is completely rootless, and once he is in a high position, no one can control him.

It is too dangerous to keep such a person.

Without mentioning Gaochang, what happened in Goryeo, Waguk, and Champa fully proved that if he had the intention, he would be enough to stir up unrest in a place.

The court needs talents, but it does not need talents that cannot be used by the court.

Li Yuanying didn’t speak, and His Majesty Li Er was not annoyed. He took two sips of the wine in front of him and waited for Dai Ting to come over.

Dai Ting came to the other palace with Li Yuanying, and rushed to meet him after hearing the call of His Majesty Li Er. As soon as he entered, Dai Ting immediately noticed that the atmosphere between His Majesty Li Er and Li Yuanying was not right. Li Yuanying sat there with an angry expression, “I don’t want to talk to you again”. He closed his eyes and bowed respectfully to His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er sat on the head, and said lightly why he was called. The imperial court needed to travel through the Western Regions. Last year, Wang Xuance sent out an envoy to Tianzhu to learn how to make sugar. The envoy was attacked by the Tianzhu people, which was a provocation to Datang. Therefore, after the victory of Qiuci this year, the court will consider various restraints against Tianzhu. The imperial court is in need of talents like him!

Li Yuanying was sulking at first, listening to His Majesty Li Er’s explanation of this, the anger disappeared mostly. He leaned over to His Majesty Li Er again and began to speak: “Brother Emperor, you said earlier that I must have let Dai Ting go. That day Zhu people were disrespectful to the Datang Mission. They can teach you a lesson!”

His Majesty Li Er gave him a sideways look.

Li Yuanying shut up obediently.

His Majesty Li Er looked at Dai Ting, said an official position, and allowed him to do things cheaply, and asked him if he would like to serve the court.

Dai Ting always listened respectfully, until he heard His Majesty Li Er asked him if he wanted to, he didn’t hesitate to say: “Little is unwilling.”

His Majesty Li Er’s expression remained the same, Li Yuanying became anxious for him: “How suitable is this for you to do, I think you should go!”

His Majesty Li Er glanced at Li Yuanying, and then asked Dai Ting: “Yuanying orders you to go, and you won’t go either?”

Dai Ting said seriously: “If your Royal Highness orders the younger one to go, the younger one will go.”

But he didn’t want to do anything in the name of the court.

Once stepping into the court, things will become complicated, and he does not want to be involved in any power disputes.

His family abandoned him and sold him into the palace to be a castrate for a lifetime. He had no impression of them, let alone any feelings, and he didn’t need to shoulder the responsibility of the ancestor of glory. Fame, fortune, wealth and power are of no significance to him.

He only needs to be loyal to Li Yuanying in his life.

If Li Yuanying wants him to serve the court, he will naturally.

His Majesty Li Er looked at Li Yuanying, now he can make a decision.

Li Yuanying really wanted Dai Ting to travel through the Western Regions just now, but Dai Ting had already said that he didn’t want to, and he couldn’t ignore Dai Ting’s wishes.

Li Yuanying took His Majesty Li Er’s hand and said, “Brother Emperor, Dai Ting should stay in Tengzhou. He has never been to the Western Regions, and he might have missed the imperial affairs. Moreover, Wang Xuance did not do a good job, Dai Ting. It’s not good to pick other people’s fruits at that time.” He didn’t know much about the situation in the Western Regions, but just now His Majesty Li Er mentioned that Wang Xuance had won several beautiful battles in the Western Regions with the help of Tubo and Nibulo soldiers, indicating that this messenger Also very capable.

There are so many capable people in the world, why should Dai Ting force it if he doesn’t want to go.

His Majesty Li Er was accustomed to Li Yuanying who dared to say anything, and he was not angry after hearing Li Yuanying’s answer. He glanced at Dai Ting, who was always kneeling on the ground respectfully, waved his hand and said, “Okay, take your people back, so that you don’t have to say every day that I even grab your close attendant.”

Li Yuanying ran away with Dai Ting.

After walking out of the other palace, Li Yuanying and Dai Ting murmured: “What does the emperor mean? I really don’t understand.” If his emperor really wants to give Dai Ting a high-ranking official and let Dai Ting serve the court, how can I ask? A few words about them and sent them away? The idea of ​​being an emperor is so elusive!

Dai Ting shook his head.

He couldn’t guess, and didn’t want to guess.

No matter what the emperor’s mind is, it has nothing to do with him.

Li Yuanying pondered for a while, and felt that there was nothing to think about. Anyway, his emperor brother didn’t want to kill Dai Ting anymore. Neither he nor Dai Ting thought about the thankless thing of rebellion. It is better to think about what is fun if you have that kind of idle time!

With no one on the left or right, Li Yuanying said to Dai Ting: “Being an emperor is too tiring, and it’s not appropriate to treat me as me.” His thinking began to diverge, “My nephew and the elephant must be very hard in the future. I have to invite them to come and play afterwards. Play. As I said, train and train more courtiers, and leave everything to them to do, and life will be more comfortable!”

Dai Ting said: “Not everyone can think that way.” People who have tasted power are rarely willing to let go. Li Yuanying was also pampered and guarded by someone since he was a child, and has not been restrained, so she didn’t think much about that position.

Li Yuanying didn’t say a word, and walked back under the moonlight.

Leaving the other palace, the hustle and bustle of Tengzhou City came again. Even at night, Tengzhou is still lively and prosperous. There are many people on the road and many vendors. Most of these people recognized Li Yuanying, and after seeing Li Yuanying, they greeted him enthusiastically, asking him if he wanted something to eat or drink.

Li Yuanying immediately threw the sadness behind his head, and responded happily: “I’m full, I’m not thirsty or thirsty.” So all the way back to the Royal Palace of Teng, Li Yuanying asked Dai Ting not to follow, and went to find Wei Shu. To kiss, to hug.

Li Yuanying was tired of holding her princess, and then talked to her about Li Er’s begging for Dai Ting. Sometimes the people below are too capable and worried. In fact, he was psychologically prepared for Dai Ting, Wu Mei, and Di Renjie. If the court needs them and the court wants to give them a better way out, he will not force them to stay. But the premise is that they are willing to go, and if they are not willing, he cannot force them to go.

Li Yuanying said: “Brother Emperor is getting more and more elusive. I don’t know if he is angry.” If the court really needs Dai Ting, and he has to keep Dai Ting not to serve for the court, this is indeed the case. He is wrong. If he is Li Er Majesty, he will definitely be angry.

The two became relatives, and Li Yuanying didn’t hide it, telling Wei Shu that he had realized that His Majesty Li Er had a murderous intention to Dai Ting.

Li Yuanying was unwilling to speculate on Li Er’s Majesty, but he is no longer alone. To protect the people around him, he has to think things through, and he can’t always be confused. Last time he asked Dai Ting to go to sea to avoid disaster, His Majesty Li Er should have seen his mind. This time, before returning to Beijing, His Majesty Li Er suddenly proposed to let Dai Ting enter the court. He felt that His Majesty Li Er did not really want someone, but was tempting.

As for what His Majesty Li Er was testing, he couldn’t understand.

He also wondered if the answers given by him and Dai Ting satisfied His Majesty Li Er.

Li Yuanying hadn’t talked about these things with Wei Shu before, and Wei Shu didn’t know that Dai Ting had gone to Champa to avoid misfortune.

I usually see Li Yuanying indulge in front of Li Erbi very much, and he is also very wanton in correspondence. Wei Shu always feels that Li Yuanying is bold and heartless. Now listening to Li Yuanying talking about these hidden undercurrents, her heart seemed to be severely grasped by an invisible hand, a little painful and a little sad.

Even a happy person like Li Yuanying, born in the royal family, will inevitably have such worries.

Wei Shu held Li Yuanying’s hand and said, “We have no ambitions, and we are not afraid of temptation.”

Li Yuanying had told Wei Shu all the things she had hidden in her heart, and her mood became clear again. He hugged Wei Shu and kissed her on the cheek, and said, “Brother Emperor is still very kind to me, otherwise he would not come to Tengzhou to see us getting married. After all, he is the king of a country and there are many things to consider. Anyway, we As long as you don’t let the emperor think that we are interested in that position or threaten that position.” Li Yuanying hummed, “If the emperor really can’t tolerate us anymore, we will go out on a boat, how far we can go. , Won’t come back again!”

The young couple talked about a conversation, and gradually became less worried. Worry is useless. His Majesty Li Er really wants to have suspicions. Their best response is to set sail and leave the sea, and they can’t really rebel. So hard work, whoever loves to do it!

Since there is no way to deal with it, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want to!

On the second day, Li Yuanying went to see off His Majesty Li Er, and rode her horse all the way to a long distance, and was sent to the border of Tengzhou. He said goodbye to His Majesty Li Er: “Brother Emperor, you must return to me more after returning to Beijing. Letter from you, don’t I write ten letters and you only reply one. Every time I don’t receive your reply, I feel sad!”

His Majesty Li Er cursed: “What can you reply to the letter you wrote? Really everyone is as free as you?”

Li Yuanying changed his mind again and urged His Majesty Li Er to take care of his health and not to be too busy. He saw that Lao Fang Lao Wei and the others were still healthy, so let them work harder; it is not possible, Chu Suiliang, Cen Wenwen, and Ma Zhou. It’s also looking good, and you can do things for them. He sees that there are so many talents in North Korea, one or two are the pillars of the country!

His Majesty Li Er always felt that Li Yuanying’s eyes were shining when he mentioned talents, and he wanted to ask him for another group of people. He didn’t hesitate to rush Li Yuanying back, so that Li Yuanying would stop being annoying.

However, Li Yuanying has been so diligently sent so far, and his Majesty Li Er didn’t let him get no benefits. He named Li Junxian and asked him to stay in Tengzhou for the time being to help Li Yuanying to train.

His Majesty Li Er let Li Yuanying recruit two thousand more people to protect him. As a result, he let these two thousand people be dispersed in Tengzhou for public security work. There were still not a few decent soldiers under his hand. Li Dejian and Du He were also killed. Arranged to go to the navy’s side, His Majesty Li Er really couldn’t see it, leaving Li Junxian to let him train the royal soldiers.

If he is too confused to tolerate such a younger brother in the future, he still hopes that someone can protect Li Yuanying from fleeing. In this way, he can find people back when he is angry, instead of just regretting the cold tomb.

Li Yuanying did not expect that His Majesty Li Er would let Li Junxian stay. This time, Li Junxian was able to protect His Majesty Li Er to Mount Tai to convene the Zen. It can be seen that His Majesty Li Er trusts Li Junxian very much, but now his Majesty Li Junxian has asked Li Junxian to stay in Tengzhou to help him train the palace guards. His eyes were red, and he pulled his horse under the hand of His Majesty Li Er and shouted: “Brother Emperor.”

His Majesty Li Er said: “Just do what you want. Let me see how different you can make Tengzhou.” He looked at Li Yuanying’s red eyes with disapproval. You can’t move your eyes to tears when you are a person, and you don’t think it is embarrassing, so hurry back.”

Li Yuanying returned obediently and immediately watched to drive forward with the horse.

Soon, the two teams parted ways on the official road. One team had to go east and the other went west, each returning to its place, starting a new round of busyness.
