Chapter 3024 Serious Overdraft
"Here!"
The chamberlain was so frightened that he did not dare to say anything more.
If Wang De, the chief chamberlain, was here, he might be able to boldly say a few words of advice. It is extremely rare for a young chamberlain to be so talkative in front of His Majesty Li Er's power. How could he dare to say more?
He quickly went to the side and took out the brocade box, took a pill, poured a glass of warm water, and served His Majesty Li Er to swallow the pills.
"Let's go!"
His Majesty Li Er stood up and went out with a few servants. Surrounded by a large group of forbidden troops, he headed towards the hot spring in the east of the city.
Under the night, the entire Xiongyue City is considered quiet and peaceful. The previous fighting has stopped long ago, the remaining defenders have been eliminated, and the few residences have closed their doors, lest the Tang army entering the city start a round of massacre...
< br>
His Majesty Li Er put on his helmet and armor, and walked eastward along the long stone-paved street surrounded by the Imperial Guards. Soon after, he came out of the East City Gate. Xiangshui River is a river south of Xiongyue City. It flows into the sea from east to west. The river is not wide. It is used as the moat of Xiongyue City. The river water is turbulent and sparkling at night.
After walking a short distance eastward along the river bank, we saw many buildings along the river hidden among the trees, lit by lanterns, which made it quite quiet.
The Tang army was standing guard at various intersections and in front of buildings. It had already accepted this area, and the army was advancing towards nearby villages to clear out the defeated troops.
Zhu Suiliang was already standing at the intersection. When he saw His Majesty Li Er approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward to hold the horse's reins and said, "Your Majesty, follow me!"
Holding the horse's rein, he trotted into a quiet garden.
Lanterns are hung everywhere in the forest, and in the depths are houses and buildings built in the garden, scattered among them, very exquisite.
Arriving in front of one of the Chinese-style buildings, Zhu Suiliang stopped and said with a smile: "It's right here!"
Serving His Majesty Li Er, he got off his horse, threw the reins of the horse to the Imperial Guards on the side, and entered the building with His Majesty Li Er, escorted by more than ten Imperial Guards.
The building is very spacious, and the structure is all in Chinese style. It is no different from the Central Plains. It is a bit dilapidated, but it is still clean. Naturally, it cannot compare with the carved beams and exquisite decorations of the Han-style palace. I don’t know whether it was a legacy of the Han people’s previous construction, or whether the Goguryeo people imitated the Chinese style and built it later.
On the floor of the building, a row of gorgeously dressed women were kneeling, each with their heads lowered, and their faces could not be seen clearly. When they heard the footsteps, they fell on the floor one after another and shouted softly: "See you, noble man!"< br>
The Goguryeo people most admired Han etiquette and had close contacts with the Central Plains dynasty. Beauties among the royal family were often sent as tribute to the Central Plains royal family. They could both understand and speak simple Chinese.
Speaking Chinese and writing Chinese characters are symbols of Goguryeo's class status. Ordinary civilians not only have no opportunity to learn, but are also not qualified to learn...
His Majesty Li Er glanced at Zhu Suiliang.
Zhu Suiliang whispered: "They are all female relatives of the Goguryeo royal family. Although they are from Fanbang, they have some experience. The ministers told them that they would serve the powerful officials of the Tang Dynasty later, and everyone was very happy."
< br>
There are also fierce people among Yi women. If he knew that he was going to serve the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who could guarantee that he would not turn evil into a coward?
But if they are just ordinary powerful people, they may not have the desire to die together.
Anyway, the Goguryeo people were nomadic and did not care about chastity. They served the Tang Dynasty dignitaries for a while, and if they could be released, they would still marry.
His Majesty Li Er put his hands behind his hands and said: "Everyone, raise your heads!"
The female relatives on the floor raised their heads when they heard this.
Sure enough, the two female relatives kneeling on the left hand side are beautiful and beautiful, they are only twenty-eight years old and have enchanting figures. Even in the Tai Chi Palace where His Majesty Li Er gathers all the beauties, they can be considered to be of the upper-middle class. A woman of this color suddenly appears in such a remote and barbaric place, and is contrasted by the vulgar beauty around her, making her look even more outstanding, like a fairy who has been banished to the mortal world.
His Majesty Li Er was in a great mood. He laughed, raised his hand and said, "You two can take a bath for me!"
The two women looked pale, but they also knew that this was a fate they could not escape. If they did not want to be ruined by the wolf-like Tang army, or even massacred here, then they had to serve the noble man in front of them.
"Here..."
The two women agreed softly, and helped Li Er to go to the hot spring pool at the back, one on the left and the other on the right.
Zhu Suiliang waved his hand and ordered people to leave the remaining female family members behind.
Looking at His Majesty Li Er's back disappearing behind the screen, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. I think back then, I was also a self-proclaimed Confucian scholar, and I despised those people who flattered and flattered others. However, after entering the officialdom, I subtly turned into the person I hated the most...
I have been laughing at Fang Jun all day long. He relied on flattering His Majesty to get promoted to a noble position. He was no less generous than those sycophants in ancient times. But what about now? I seem to be even more unbearable than Fang Jun...
well!
With a long sigh, Zhu Suiliang shook his head, turned around helplessly and walked out.
The bright moon is in the sky, and the shadows of the trees are dancing.
*****
That night Zhu Suiliang slept in a nearby house.
Early the next morning, Zhu Suiliang got up early, washed himself, had a simple breakfast, and came to the building to see His Majesty Li Er. However, he was told by the chamberlain that His Majesty was in high spirits last night and made several expeditions until dawn. Come on, I'm sleeping soundly now.
Then he made some tea for Zhu Suiliang and went about his business.
Zhu Suiliang was sitting in the hall, drinking tea, but he was really panicking.
Naturally, he didn't know about His Majesty's medication, but he could see that His Majesty's condition was ups and downs and was very bad. It was obvious that the expedition had taken a heavy toll on His Majesty's body. Under such circumstances, I sent two more beauties for His Majesty's enjoyment. What if something went wrong while playing...
I shivered so hard that I couldn't even imagine it anymore.
After sitting uneasily for more than an hour, a chamberlain came from the back hall and said that His Majesty had just woken up and summoned him to meet him.
Zhu Suiliang quickly tidied up his clothes and followed the servant into the back hall.
His Majesty Li Er has woken up, but he is leaning on the bed, wearing a medium coat with his chest open, and his spirit is listless, but he seems to be awake but not awake.
The two beauties had naturally been sent elsewhere long ago. After being favored, they were not qualified to sleep with His Majesty...
"My dear, sit down."
When His Majesty Li Er heard the footsteps, he raised his eyelids to take a look, said something casually, and then closed his eyelids to gather his energy.
Zhu Suiliang sat on the stool by the window tremblingly. After thinking about it, he still boldly advised: "Your Majesty is in Liaodong at the moment and is at the center of the Eastern Expedition. You should still focus on military aircraft and have appropriate enjoyment. Otherwise, Once something goes wrong, no one can afford it.”
He is really afraid that His Majesty Li Er will "enjoy too much"...
Several chamberlains on the side glanced at Zhu Suiliang secretly, expressing contempt secretly.
The mother-in-law found two foreign beauties to give to His Majesty for your enjoyment, but the latter looked sanctimonious and advised Your Majesty to stop in moderation and stay upright... I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen anyone so shameless.
His Majesty Li Er waved his hand casually and said lazily: "This has nothing to do with your love. I know my physical condition, so there is no need to worry."
That being said, he actually regretted it himself. He played too unrestrainedly at the end and almost fainted when he was in a strong mood...
But having said that, in the face of beauty, which man can resist it?
But I must not continue like this in the future. During this personal expedition, my physical condition was deteriorating, and my spirit was even more weak and exhausted. I often relied on medicine to encourage and support me. If things go on like this, the roots may be completely overdrawn, causing great disaster.
Zhu Suiliang said gratefully: "Thank you for your love and care, Your Majesty!"
He understood that this was His Majesty Li Er's protection for him. Otherwise, once the incident here was spread, the moral elders in the court would definitely criticize him verbally and writing, and even compare him to the ancient traitor and impeach him. In this way, half of his good reputation will be wasted.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but secretly regret that the sacrifice of my daughter last night was a bit hasty. I only focused on pleasing His Majesty, but did not consider the serious consequences...
His Majesty Li Er closed his eyes and rested for a while, feeling a little better. He sat up from the bed, asked the chamberlain to serve him and put on his regular clothes, and said: "There will be two days of rest in Jian'an City, and I will take advantage of this period to have a good time." Let’s take a rest. Let’s go out with me and see if this place, the homeland of the Han Dynasty, was badly damaged under the rule of the Goguryeo people.”
"Here."
Zhu Suiliang served His Majesty Li Er for breakfast, and only at 4 o'clock did he walk out of the hot spring building and ride around on horseback.
Just as he was about to visit a mountain peak rising from the ground like a stone pillar in the north, he suddenly saw a scout riding towards him, shouting: "Your Majesty! An urgent message from Chang'an!" (End of this chapter)
