Chapter 585 Li Bai and Li Qingzhao
Chapter 583: Li Bai and Li Qingzhao
"Your Majesty, I have never thought of Ning''er as my sister. The engagement was just a joke between the elders. Now that Ning''er has become the new saint, I naturally agree to break the engagement."
Xiang Yu said slowly, from his earnest attitude, it was enough to see that he was not dissatisfied.
Zhang Sheng was relieved when he saw this. After all, unilateral breaking out of engagement is a very embarrassing thing at any time. It is naturally the best thing for Xiang Yu to have no dissatisfaction.
"Although Ning''er can''t marry a general, the friendship between my Zhang family and the Xiang family cannot be broken."
Xiang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, and he felt a vague premonition in his heart.
"Let me do this, I have a sister who has the beauty of the country and the beauty of the country. I admire the general very much. Now I have conferred her as my Princess of the Ming Dynasty and gave her marriage to the general. How do you think general?"
Xiang Yu was shocked and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I''m afraid..."
"Okay, that''s it. The day I take the concubine is when the general gets married, he will leave the court."
Zhang Sheng did not give Xiang Yu a chance to refute, and directly issued a decisive order and left, leaving Xiang Yu alone in the hall.
On the way back to the house, Zhang Liang and Xiang Yu were on the same journey, so they said with an ambiguous look: "General Xiang, congratulations, your majesty, this sister is a real beauty."
"A person with serious sins has no intention of getting married. Don''t make any jokes about the son''s wife. Yu turned around and begged His Majesty to retire the marriage."
Xiang Yu said expressionlessly that Shi Lan caused him too much affection and it would be impossible for him to marry a wife in a short period of time.
"Hey, this is a bad statement. If you know who your majesty''s sister, General, you will definitely not refuse."
Seeing Zhang Liang''s expression of affirmation, Xiang Yu couldn''t help but become curious about this woman.
"Oh? I wonder who this pampered girl is?"
"You know this female general, too. She is the sister of General Yu Ziqi, Yu Miaoge."
Yu Miaoge, whose courtesy name is Shilan, is called by someone close to you, so outsiders basically call Shi Lan Yu Miaoge.
With Zhang Liang''s wisdom, it is naturally not difficult to see that the two of them have already been in love, so they suggested to Zhang Sheng to match the two so that their lovers can finally get married. While winning over Xiang Yu, they also let their niece Zhang Ning get rid of the engagement.
Hearing this name again, Xiang Yu''s face became extremely gloomy. He thought this woman would leave his world forever, but he didn''t expect that he would meet again so soon.
"It seems that Zhang Sheng has reservations about Zhang Liang, otherwise Zhang Liang would not have been so dull."
Xiang Yu thought to himself that with his understanding of Zhang Liang, if he knew that Shi Lan leaked information to Qin Hao during the Battle of Han River, which eventually led to the defeat of the 400,000 army, he would definitely be furious and be sentenced to death by Shi Lan.
After all, if Xiang Yu was not defeated, how could there be a situation in Sizhou for trapping dragons?
But if all the faults of the Yellow Turban defeat were pushed to Shi Lan, it would be too one-sided.
After all, Shi Lan is just a chess piece. Without Shi Lan, there will definitely be Mulan, Water Lan and Fire Lan, and the ending of the Yellow Turban will not change because this is destined.
Zhang Sheng did not tell Zhang Liang about Shi Lan''s true identity. Except for Zhang Sheng, Xiang Yu and Guo Jia, no one knows what Shi Lan has really done, even her brother Yu Ziqi.
"Zhang Sheng knew what Shi Lan had done, but not only did he hide it for her, but he also wanted to marry her to me? What exactly did she want to do?"
Xiang Yu also discovered the difference between him and those wise men. He clearly knew a lot, but he still couldn''t see through the other party''s purpose!
"General Xiang Yu, that''s Miss Miaoge. Are you sure you want to refuse?" Zhang Liang quipped with a smile.
Xiang Yu immediately lowered his head when he heard this, his eyes full of complexity. Xiang Yu’s feelings for Shi Lan are now very complicated, from his initial love to his hatred after betrayal, to his heartache when Shi Lan cut off his rear, and finally the regret of taking care of the village...
Xiang Yu, who was once arrogant, arrogant, bloodthirsty and arrogant, has completely changed after this series of blows, and the initiator was Shi Lan.
Now Xiang Yu finally understood why Shi Lan betrayed him, but he understood that it was one thing, and forgiveness was another!
"Shi Lan, why do you still appear? How should I face you?"
At this time, Xiang Yu was in a mess.
———
After Fang La''s manifesto was released, the Ming court launched a counterattack in less than three days.
Emperor Ming Zhang Sheng issued an imperial edict to openly select concubines. Any woman who is over 14 years old, has a pure character and a good appearance, whether civilians or aristocratic families, can sign up for election.
The Ming Dynasty started its family with the people, so it was naturally impossible for the Ming Dynasty to only choose concubines among aristocratic families. After receiving the news that Emperor Ming wanted to choose concubines among the people, the people of various states beat drums and cheered.
Although civilian imperial concubines are not unprecedented, they are still very rare. Every household has a daughter who meets the standards and signs up to participate, and they all want their daughters to fly to the branches to be phoenixes.
The remaining families of all sizes and big families in the Ming Dynasty also did not want to miss this opportunity. Although their relationship with the Ming Dynasty was tense, how could the families let such a good opportunity to enter the Ming Dynasty officialdom?
All the states and counties under the Ming Dynasty were all carrying out the election of concubines. This time, the selection of concubines in the private sector not only dispelled the influence of some rumors, but also made Zhang Sheng win over the hearts of the people.
Yanzhou, Chenliu County, and Xuanzao County.
Shenzao County was the place where the eighteen princes of later generations fought against Dong, and it was also the gateway between Yanzhou and Sizhou. Such an important place must be guarded by people, and the county magistrate here was Li Bai, known as the poet and immortal.
As the county magistrate of the sour jujube, Li Bai was exhausted physically and mentally after handling government affairs. This is not because his ability is insufficient, but because the situation in the Ming Dynasty was too complicated, and even if he was unable to sort it out in a short period of time.
"Brother, brother."
Before he entered the mansion, Li Bai heard his sister''s silver bell-like shout, and a heartwarming smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Brother, thank you for your hard work, please have tea."
A hint of surprise flashed in Li Bai''s eyes. Why did his sister become so sexually altered? When did she become so sensible?
Li Bai took the teacup and asked with a smile: "Qingzhao, have you been in trouble?"
Among the top 100 poets born with Baizhaoka, Li Qingzhao, the "No. 1 talented woman in the ages" and Li Bai, the "Poet Immortal" were implanted into brothers and sisters in this life.
Although the brother and sister came from poor families, they both had amazing talents. Li Qingzhao has several excellent works and was known as the "two talented women of the world" together with Cai Yan, the daughter of the great scholar Cai Yong.
As for his brother Li Bai, it was even more unfair. When he was young, he used swordsmanship and had few rivals in the "Qinglian Sword Song" and made the reputation of the Qinglian Swordsman.
In terms of literary talent, Li Bai is even less aware. His writings are all masterpieces and are sought after by countless literati, and they are no less than Qin Hao''s literary leaders.
Unfortunately, even a talented man like Li Bai, who is both civil and military, was still dragged down by his background and could not become an official. It was not until the establishment of the Ming Dynasty that he finally had a day to make a name for himself.
