Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Bingzhou Chapter 275 Turkic Princess
Chapter 275 Turkic Princess Asunayun
"This Chang'an is very prosperous!" Lu Ke rode on his horse. Looking at the market next to him, his smile became stronger. He grew up in Chang'an. As he grew older, he knew more about the world. Lu Zhaoci no longer locked him up in the palace. The princes of the Tang Dynasty often appeared in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City, which is not very strange. Of course, these prerequisites are under the condition of someone guarding him.
"Your Highness, such a beautiful scenery is only achieved under the rule of Your Majesty." Wu Yan, the guard on the side, said with a smile. His words were filled with a hint of pride. The whip in his hand pointed at some Western Regions merchants walking by, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, these merchants are very envious of the people of the Tang Dynasty. These people all want to become our people of the Tang Dynasty! I heard that there are Turkic people coming to Chang'an!"
"That's natural. Today, there are wise monarchs in power, and the ministers in the court are all capable people. Naturally, there is a peaceful and prosperous era." A trace of longing appeared on Lu Ke's face. If he could control such an empire, he would have been in vain.
"Your Highness, it's still early, so why not be able to come to the front to have some drinks." Wu Yan looked at the restaurants on both sides and swallowed, and said, "Your Highness, look at the Qingyun Tower in front, and heard that those disciples or officials who came to Beijing would go there every time they came to Beijing to seek good luck!"
"Qingyun Tower! Haha, it means to be as good as the sky?" Lu Ke looked over and said with a smile: "If eating a glass of wine in this restaurant has this effect, then what else does the Ministry of Personnel do in the Tang Dynasty? However, since it is so famous, I will go and see it today. Let's go, Wu Yan, and lead the way."
"Good!" Wu Yan showed joy on his face. Although these guards did easy work in the capital, they were always a guard and often had no choice but to follow a good master. It would be fine if they followed a bad master, life and death would not be in his own hands. Wu Yan followed Lu Ke, which was considered good among the princes. Lu Ke was so majestic, but he was very good at his subordinates, and he deserved to be called the King of Heroes.
"Your Highness, please dismount." Wu Yan jumped down from the restaurant, turned around and helped Lu Ke off the horse. Lu Ke looked at the Qingyun Tower and nodded. Qingyun Tower was simple and grand. Although it was in the downtown area, it was not as magnificent as other restaurants. Instead, it felt like returning to nature. It gave people a fresh feeling.
"Go in!" Lu Ke waved his hand, then raised his legs and walked towards the restaurant. As for the horses and other things he was carrying, there was naturally a waiter who took him away.
"You little gentleman, please go up to the third floor." As soon as everyone walked into the restaurant, a waiter came up to meet him. Looking at everyone, he could see that the little guy in the middle was the right master, and he saw that the guards accompanying him were all tigers and bears. He even concluded in his heart that this handsome little gentleman was either rich or noble, and was not an ordinary master. He immediately opened his mouth and let everyone go to the elegant seat on the third floor.
"Huh!" Lu Ke was about to go upstairs, and suddenly looked at a plaque in surprise on the middle of the lobby. He saw four big words "Qingyunshu" written on it. A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, pointing to the plaque and laughed: "I didn't expect to see Lord Cui's Mobao here, which surprised the boy. No wonder this building is called Qingyun Tower, no wonder the four words "Qingyun Mountain" dared to write on this plaque, which really makes some sense."
"Why? You guy, too, know the handwriting of our adults?" The waiter looked at Lu Ke in surprise when he heard this. It was nothing strange if other officials who came to take the imperial examination or went to Beijing to report their duties to know Cui Renshi's handwriting, but now a little boy actually knows the handwriting of the uncle of the dynasty, which surprised people. So the waiter couldn't help but raise Lu Ke's identity to a higher level. Even the word "small" was abandoned...
"Haha!" Lu Ke just shook his head and did not answer the waiter's words. He just said, "My family is very ruling. You are not allowed to eat wine before you are a minor. Just bring a pot of good tea and give them the best hero blood!"
"Yes, yes." The waiter dared not neglect. Not everyone can drink this top-quality hero blood. Just a small pot costs ten taels of gold! But when he heard the tone of the little husband, the waiter dared not refuse, so he quickly welcomed Lu Ke and others to the third floor.
Although the third floor is a private room, it is actually covered with many exquisite screens, and there are many tables placed inside to avoid the gathering of literati and scholars. There will be obstacles when chanting poems and paintings, so there is such a layout. However, standing on Qingyun Tower, you can see most of the Chang'an City, even the Zhuque Gate in the distance, which is indeed a good place. The waiter even chose a place by the window for Lu Ke and the others. From here, you can not only see the Zhuque Gate in the distance, but also more importantly, you can watch the Hu Ji performance on the patio on the first floor. It is indeed a good place.
After a while, the waiter brought Lu Ke and others the best tea, and gave Wu Yan and other guards the best hero blood, and some wine dishes. He then stepped back.
"Nian Nujiao, Xizhou Qu, I call Xizhou Qu."
"Nian Nujiao!"
…………………
At this time, suddenly, a scream came from the patio on the first floor. Lu Ke from the third floor couldn't help but frowned.
"Your Highness, these are the sings of the sings here. I heard that not only are the sings here, but also some brothel kiln sisters from Kanto will also come here. More importantly, the young and beautiful lady, hehe! Your Highness forgives your guilt." Wu Yan realized that he was saying the wrong thing at this time. At this time, he was not his military friend, but his prince who was today. At a young age, he said these words at this time and came to the ears of the censors. I am afraid that he could not be the guard.
"Forget it, forget it." Lu Ke said with a smile: "Wu Yan, you are not young anymore, I don't know if you have anybody you like. If you find it, then I will take the marriage for you."
"If you can get the prince's marriage, it will be a great blessing for Mo Yan." Wu Yan was full of excitement when he heard this, and bowed and said, "My father told me about a marriage last year. When the holiday is on, Mo Jiang will go back to get married. It's just in Luoyang, and I'm afraid that Your Highness will have no free time at that time."
"Then I will give you a house and bring your parents and your little lady to Chang'an." Lu Ke said with a smile.
"Haha, it's said that there was a Nian Nujiao in Qingyun Tower, who was as beautiful as a flower. When I saw it today, it was really extraordinary. Haha!" At this moment, a duck-like voice sounded, shaking the entire Qingyun Tower.
"Who is so arrogant?" Lu Ke frowned, and couldn't help but put the white porcelain cup in his hand on several tables, making a slight sound.
"Miss, you might as well follow me and live a life of luxury and food, rather than singing here, you shouldn't it be ten times better than here?" At this time, the duck-like voice came again.
"Go and see who it is. I'm so brave. Don't he know where this place is? He actually came to the Cui family's restaurant to make trouble." Lu Ke said with a smile instead of anger.
"Yes!" Wu Yan did not dare to be negligent, so he quickly opened the window and looked down. He saw a thin young man, leading a dozen slaves, teasing a beautiful woman on the stage. The woman's face was red with shame, shyness and anger, but she did not dare to have an attack. On her side, a middle-aged businessman dressed in a low voice was whispering something. I guess that beautiful woman was the little lady known as Nian Nujiao, and who the merchant was not known to Wu Yan. But he knew who the thin young man was...
"If you go back to your highness, you will know that person. He is Lu Xiao, the second son of Lord Lu Qingyun, the commander of the Jinyiwei." Wu Yan quickly turned around and said.
"It is said that Lu Qingyun is arrogant and domineering in Chang'an City. He originally thought it was a slander, but when he saw his son, he knew that this was probably groundless." Lu Ke also stood up and looked at Lu Xiao in the courtyard. His expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"Your Highness, look at the opposite side." At this time, Wu Yan suddenly said softly in Lu Ke's ear.
When Lu Ke heard this, he moved his heart. He looked at the opposite side as he followed the words, but saw a handsome young man standing in the elegant seat opposite. He was holding a cup of tea on his slender right hand, and his expression was elegant, which made people feel very fond of. When the young man saw Lu Ke looking, he also showed a smile on his lips and bowed to Lu Ke, with an indescribable elegance.
Lu Ke was also a handsome and handsome man. When he saw that there was such a handsome young man on the other side, he couldn't help but feel good about him and bowed to him.
"Your Highness, he comes from the Turkic royal family, and he is from the Turkic royal family." Wu Yan suddenly said softly.
"How do you know?" Lu Ke's face changed and he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Mo Jiang just saw a totem faintly on his left shoulder, which seemed to be a desert eagle, which was the symbol of the Turkic royal family, so Mo Jiang said that he was from the Turkic." Wu Yan said carefully.
"Turkic royal family?" Lu Ke asked, "Is it possible that it was Jie Li's prince, who was so brave that he came to Chang'an. Aren't you afraid of death? It's a pity that he is so handsome. Humph, don't worry about it for now, he can't escape anyway, and he is so bold and arrogant. He doesn't put a small commander of the Jinyiwei in my eyes, let alone his second son. He is just an ant. Let him get out for Xiao Wang. From now on, Nian Nujiao will protect me." As he said that, he threw a token from his arms and threw it to Wu Yan.
"Yes, let's do it now!" Wu Yan did not dare to neglect. He quickly took the token and walked downstairs.
"Bang bang!" After a moment, I heard a screen ringing outside, and then Lu Ke heard a clear voice coming.
"Yang Yun from Zhaojun came to ask for the young master."
"Please come in." Lu Ke's heart moved, his mind turned around, and a handsome face suddenly appeared, and he smiled and said, "Please come in, Xiao Lang."
"Haha, thank you Xiaolang." The handsome young man walked in slowly.
“Below…”
"If the villain is not guessing correctly, the opposite side is the son of today, His Highness the King of Shu. I don't know if the villain can guess correctly." Yang Yun showed a smile on his face, as if a hundred flowers were blooming, which made people feel indescribable.
"Oh, it seems, how did you know?" Lu Ke's face moved and he quietly looked at the guards around him, but he saw that the guards had already stood behind him, and obviously they had already discovered that the other party was extraordinary.
"On the Zhenguan emperors today, only His Highness the King of Shu is chivalrous, and with such an age, only His Highness the King of Shu is the King of Shu." Yang Yun sat down as if he had not seen the guards beside Lu Ke.
Lu Ke's eyes moved and he looked at Yang Yun like him. Although the long gown outside was covered, he could vaguely see a desert eagle embroidered on a brocade garment inside. If he was not mistaken, this person must be a member of the Ashina tribe, a prairie aristocrat. Judging from the situation, he was probably not a simple person.
"Looking at how handsome the Lang Jun was, he looked extraordinary when he raised his hands and feet. When he saw Xiao Wang, he didn't see any fear on his face. Hehe, although Xiao Wang is just a prince of the Tang Dynasty, not the current crown prince, but not everyone in the Tang Dynasty has the same demeanor as a young master. If Xiao Wang is not wrong, the young master may not come from the Central Plains! Even this Yang surname is making up." Lu Ke glanced at the guard beside him, and his heart suddenly felt at peace, and he couldn't help but smile...
"It is said that His Highness of the King of Shu of the Tang Dynasty is intelligent and extraordinary, but today he is really extraordinary. He is worthy of having two generations of emperors and the darling of heaven. He actually doubted my identity with my little flaws." The young man who claimed to be Yang Yun was stunned when he heard this, but his face soon returned to his calm appearance, bowed and said, "Actually, you and I are also cousins. I want to call you cousin!"
"Cousin?" Lu Ke stood up suddenly, looked at the young man in front of him in surprise, pointing his right hand at the other party, but he couldn't speak. He didn't expect that at this time, someone actually said that he was his relative. And it was a cousin relationship. This is not to say that this person's surname is Yang. Is it really a relative of his mother? His surname is Yang? That is the former Sui clan clan. But how many can the former Sui clan clan be left?
"Yes, Your Highness the Prince is the cousin." Yang Yun nodded and said, but there was nothing unusual. Obviously, this matter was true.
"Who doesn't know which royal family member Ling Zun is in the former Sui Dynasty?" Lu Ke calmed down at this time, and his face returned to his original appearance, but the suspicion in his eyes was not strange.
“Below…”
"Your Highness, Your Majesty, I'm welcome." At this time, when the screen turned, Wu Yan walked in carefully, saw Yang Yun inside, and quickly changed his words and said.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty asks the old slave to come and invite your highness and this young master to go." At this time, after Wu Yan, a figure appeared, and it was Qin Jiudao.
"Oh!" Lu Ke looked at the boy in front of him curiously. This young man who claimed to be a royal relative could actually invite his father to the invitation. Could it be that this person is really his cousin? For a moment, he didn't care about why Lu Zhaoci was in this restaurant and why he found out that his affairs were in mind. He was just even more curious about the person around him.
"It's a good father-in-law." Yang Yun's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly calmed down, stood up, and bowed to Qin Jiudao. Qin Jiudao just nodded, smiled at Lu Ke, but turned around and left. Lu Ke did not dare to be negligent, so he quickly followed him, followed Qin Jiudao to a screen in the inner side. The group only knew at this time that no one else had been seen on the entire third floor, and there were no known how many plainclothes guards stood on the eaves of the corridor. Everyone was expressionless, but they were carefully guarding the third floor.
"My son is paying homage to my father, my father is holy." As soon as Lu Ke entered the screen, he saw Lu Zhaoci sitting behind several cases, next to him, including the ministers of Xuande Hall Cen Wenben and Cui Renshi, who were standing aside carefully.
"Get up! Ke'er, you did a good job today." Lu Zhaoci said with a smile: "You must be Tuli's daughter, Princess Ashinayun of the Ashin tribe. What I said is right?"
"Female?" Lu Ke looked at the young man beside him in surprise. He didn't expect that the other party was actually a woman, and he was so big that he was actually Ashinayun, the daughter of the Second Turkic Khan. No wonder he could be called Yang Yun, no wonder he claimed to be her cousin, so he could indeed say that.
"Asinayun pays homage to Khan Tian." Asinayun took the turban and immediately showed her hair. She was indeed a woman, and she was also a beauty.
"Haha, God Khan?" Lu Zhaoci couldn't help laughing when he heard this, pointing at Ashinayun and laughing: "No wonder Tuli sent you, a little guy, to see me, and there is still some reason. He is so smart and alert. It's a pity that he is a girl. Otherwise, the Khan on the grassland will definitely be you."
"Yes! Tuli Khan used a woman to go to the Tang Dynasty to conquer Jie Li's suspicion. Haha, it's really unexpected!" Cen Wenben said with a smile.
"Your Majesty is laughed at. My Ashina tribe is gone. My father Khan asked the little girl to come to see Your Majesty. If you are rude, please forgive me." As soon as Ashinayun said, he glanced at Lu Ke who had just glanced at him and said with a smile: "Ashinayun is dull in qualifications. How can he compare to the royal family? His Highness, the King of Shu, is known as the King of Heroes. Compared with him, Ashinayun is undoubtedly the star who is better than Haoyue, and he dare not compete with him."
"Okay, haha, it seems that your father Khan knows that I am going to have a peace talk with Jie Li?" Lu Zhaoci waved his hand with a smile and said, "I don't know what your father Khan wants you to come here, are you going to tell me?"
