Geniuses Remember Love in One Second? We provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Li Linfu had carefully served Li Longji for many years, so he was very good at reading people's expressions. If he thought he was the second in the Tang dynasty, no one would dare to say they were the first.
Naturally, he could see that Ang Lee despised An Lushan, but An Lushan seemed to be at a loss. He did not understand the situation and why Li Linfu despised him.
"Commander An Jie, this is General Ang Lee, the young talent of the Tang dynasty. General Li, this is Commander An Jie, the military governor of Pinglu."
Li Linfu pretended to know nothing and warmly introduced Ang Lee and An Lushan to each other.
"Ang Lee, he is Ang Lee."
An Lushan had obviously heard of Ang Lee's name, and An Qingzong had been severely beaten by Ang Lee, so he had a deeper impression of Ang Lee.
At this moment, An Qingzong looked at Ang Lee with eyes full of uncontrollable anger, as if he could not wait to tear Ang Lee into pieces to vent the hatred in his heart.
Li Linfu saw everything clearly, but he still pretended to know nothing. He said with a smile, "General Li, you quelled the rebellion in Cuandi, and Commander An Jie led the army in Yingzhou to defeat two Tibetan rebels. You are both loyal officials and good generals of the Tang dynasty and have made great contributions to the Tang dynasty! Well, you two don't seem to know each other! "
An Lushan suppressed his anger and said coldly, "So it's General Li. You are really a young talent!"
Ang Lee tilted his head and said, "I don't dare. I have heard of Commander An Jie's name for a long time. I heard that the children in Yingzhou stopped crying when they heard Commander An Jie's name."
"General Li, where did you hear these rumors? I have always loved the people."
An Lushan's face became even angrier. Ang Lee's words just now were tantamount to describing An Lushan as a great villain who would commit all sorts of crimes. Even the children were afraid of An Lushan and did not dare to cry.
"Right Prime Minister, I pay my respects to Right Prime Minister. Oh, Marshal An is here too!"
At this moment, a group of officials rushed over and hurriedly greeted Li Linfu and An Lushan. Meanwhile, Ang Lee took advantage of the situation to turn around and take a dozen steps away from the crowd.
Li Linfu chatted with the officials for a while, then looked at An Lushan who had been following beside him. He whispered, "General Li is from Ying Province, and Marshal An Jie has also been serving in Ying Province. Has Marshal An Jie really never seen General Li before?"
"Benefactor, there are many citizens in the Ying Province. It is impossible for me to know all of them. However, the citizens of the Ying Province should know me."
"Okay, okay, I'll go over there and take a look."
Li Linfu saw that his colleagues from the Political Affairs Hall had all arrived and hurriedly strode over to greet them.
An Lushan did not follow. He stepped back and looked at An Qingzong and Shi Yungan. However, he saw that An Qingzong was angrily glaring in Ang Lee's direction.
"Dalang, you know this Ang Lee?"
An Qingzong angrily said, "Father, back then on the streets of Ying Province, it was this brat who severely injured me. I would recognize him even if he turned into ashes."
"It's actually this person. What a coincidence."
An Lushan also did not expect that Ang Lee was the culprit who had injured his son back then.
"Father, according to your son's understanding, Liu Luogu was killed by this Ang Lee. Also, the divine bird that we offered to His Majesty was also cooked by Ang Lee. This person has been opposing us ever since he beat me up."
An Qingzong angrily reported to An Lushan.
An Lushan naturally knew about Liu Luogu's death and that Ang Lee had harmed Liu Luogu. However, a year had passed and he had many things to do in Ying Province, so he had gradually forgotten about Liu Luogu's death. After An Qingzong's reminder, he immediately recalled the past.
"How preposterous! How did I offend him? Why does he oppose me at every turn? Just the way he looked at me just now was not right. No one in the court has ever dared to look at me like that."
An Lushan was furious, but there were too many officials present, so he did not dare to show too much.
Shi Yungan softly said, "Marshal, how could you forget? This Ang Lee is Li Wu's son!"
"Li Wu? Which Li Wu?"
"Marshal, he was the military officer who was disobedient back then and was removed by you. It's been several years, so perhaps you really don't remember."
Shi Yungan softly reminded him.
"Haha, so it's his son. Like father, like son."
An Lushan fiercely said.
Just as An Lushan and the other two were discussing Ang Lee, Ang Lee was standing on a high ground, overlooking the entire Supreme Liquid Pool. Admiring the scenery made his mood much better.
"His Majesty has arrived."
With a loud shout, Emperor Li Longji, surrounded by a large group of eunuchs, palace maids, and guards, arrived at the Supreme Liquid Pool.
Immediately, all the officials knelt to Li Longji and cheered, "Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor."
Li Longji seemed to be in a good mood. He lightly stepped down from the carriage and waved his hand to the officials, allowing them to rise.
Naturally, there was another wave of thanks. Then, the officials stood up one after another and surrounded Li Longji.
It was afternoon, and there was still some time before the sky turned dark. Li Longji chose this time to gather all the officials so that they could enjoy the program during the day and at the same time, enjoy the program at night.
"Everyone, the program is ready. We can begin."
Yu Chaoen whispered.
Li Longji gently nodded, "Alright, then let's begin!"
Following the order, two skiing teams of ten people each appeared in front of everyone. These two teams were wearing red and blue clothes, looking very distinct.
And in the middle of these two teams, there was a small red ball. Behind the two teams, there were two goals, and there were defenders standing at the goal positions.
This was obviously the ice hockey game of the later generations! However, there was still a big difference between this and the ice hockey game of the later generations. The number of people was different, and the equipment was different.
According to Ang Lee's understanding, there was no ice hockey in the Tang dynasty, but there was polo. But since Ang Lee invented the skis, history had quietly changed. The clever people of the Tang dynasty created ice hockey on the basis of skis, just like how horses were used to invent polo.
However, what would happen if they played ice hockey with such heavy equipment as skis? Ang Lee was very curious.
With a whistle, the two teams began the game. These agile skiers came and went on the smooth ice as if they were flying. They also used the modified ski poles in their hands to hit the small ball and make it move in the designated direction.
It had to be said that these two teams were very well trained. Almost all of them were agile. It looked like a game, and it was very exciting.
"Good, good."
Li Longji took the lead in cheering, and all the ministers naturally followed.
As long as he saw a team score, Li Longji would stand up excitedly. In order to make the Emperor happy, the ministers also stood up and cheered loudly.
"Your Majesty, what is this game? It's the first time I've seen such a wonderful game."
Li Linfu stood beside Li Longji and asked in a low voice.
"Oh, this is a snowball team that I specially trained. They have been training for more than two months. Today is the first official game. You are lucky to be here."
Li Longji seemed to be in a good mood.
"I remember that last winter, General Li led a team to circle around the Imperial Liquid Pool. At that time, I thought it was very exciting. But now Your Majesty is letting these skiers play on the ice. This is much more interesting than circling."
Li Linfu said with a smile.
"Haha! If General Li hadn't invented the skis, I wouldn't have thought of playing on the ice. This way of playing is much more exciting than polo. "
Li Longji was suddenly stunned. "Right Prime Minister, where is General Li? He should also be on the list of invitees! "
"Yes, Your Majesty, General Li was the first to arrive here. Oh, he's over there."
Li Linfu said and pointed to the right front, where Ang Lee was watching the game attentively.
Li Longji said softly, "Let him come over."
"Yes, everyone."
Yu Chaoen responded and walked behind Ang Lee. He patted Ang Lee's shoulder and said, "General Li, His Majesty wants you to go over."
Li An was taken aback. He hurriedly turned around and walked towards Li Longji before bowing.
"General Li, I can think of playing on the ice, half of it is because of you."
Li Longji pointed to Ang Lee and said.
"Your Majesty means that I invented the skis?"
Of course, Ang Lee could guess the reason.
Li Longji said with a smile, "Yes, two months ago, I watched the polo game in the West Court, and then I came here to watch these people ski. At that time, I suddenly thought of playing on the ice and let these people practice day and night. They really didn't let me down."
"Yes, Your Majesty is smart. Many ministers have seen me skiing, but none of them thought of combining skiing and polo. Only Your Majesty thought of it."
Ang Lee came to the Tang dynasty and learned to flatter.
"Your Majesty is wise. We are far inferior."
Several important ministers all flattered humbly.
The next game was more interesting. Almost every time the Red Team scored, the Blue Team could always get a goal back through efforts. Then the Red Team scored again, and the Blue Team immediately caught up. It could be said that they were very close, and the gap was very small.
This gave Ang Lee a feeling that the game was fixed. Only a fixed game could have such tacit cooperation. Ang Lee felt that the two teams did not care about winning or losing, but about the excitement of the game.
In any game, only when the two sides were evenly matched could the game be really interesting. If it was a one-sided game, any audience could guess the result, then what was the point of it?
Ang Lee had to admire these ski players. They knew that Emperor Li Longji liked to watch exciting games, so the two teams must have already discussed to make the game as exciting as possible, so as to make Li Longji happy and get a higher reward for themselves.
Sure enough, as soon as the game was over, Li Longji ordered the two teams to be rewarded generously, so that the players who participated in the game gained a lot.
After the game, the two teams circled the Supreme Liquid Pool three times at the fastest speed, so that Li Longji and the ministers could experience the pleasure of speed. Then, they quietly left.
The second program was a juggling show, which was similar to the juggling of later generations, but the costumes were more gorgeous and the program was more exciting.
After the two programs were over, the sky was dark. Under the leadership of Li Longji, everyone went to the nearby hall and sat down. According to their official positions, they sat in different positions. The higher the official position, the closer to Li Longji. Of course, some were special. For example, Ang Lee's position was arranged in the front position, which was comparable to that of an important minister.
After entering the hall, a large number of palace maids began to serve dishes, starting with Li Longji. They brought plates of delicious dishes to the table in front of the ministers one by one.
The banquets of the Tang Dynasty were not the same as those of later generations. In later generations, more than ten people sat at a table, eating the same dish and drinking the same bottle of wine. In the Tang Dynasty, each person had a separate small table, which was full of all kinds of dishes, and these dishes were obviously for the same person.
Ang Lee felt that the style of banquets in the Tang Dynasty was more hygienic, but also more wasteful. There were too many dishes in front of each person, and because of the limited space of the table, too many dishes could not be served at one time.
What made Ang Lee the most uncomfortable was that in the Tang Dynasty banquets, people had to kneel to eat, which was much more uncomfortable than sitting. However, Ang Lee had been in the Tang Dynasty for a year, so he was more accustomed to it.
Looking at the six plates of side dishes and a bottle of wine on the table, Ang Lee's stomach suddenly growled. In order to wait for this banquet, he ate very little breakfast and did not eat lunch. At this time, he was already unbearably hungry.
However, as long as Li Longji did not say that the banquet would start, Ang Lee could not touch his chopsticks at will.
After Li Longji raised his cup, all the ministers followed suit. Then, the banquet officially began.
Of course, singing and dancing were indispensable for the Emperor's huge banquet. As soon as the banquet began, a large group of beautiful palace maids entered the banquet hall and danced. There were also dozens of musicians playing music on the side.
The ministers toasted each other and talked with each other, while Ang Lee put all his energy into eating and drinking. Although there were only six plates of side dishes at the beginning, each plate was exquisite, and some of them were ingredients that Ang Lee had never seen before.
Ang Lee only had one principle for these delicacies, and that was to eat, eat all of them.
After a few songs and dances, the hot dishes were served. There were three plates for each person, all of which were meat dishes. They looked greasy and very tempting.
Ang Lee quickly piled up the six plates that he had eaten. After taking the three plates of meat dishes, he placed the six plates on top of the plates in the hands of the palace maids. This made the palace maids look at Ang Lee in surprise.
After all, Ang Lee was too strange. The other ministers at most only ate half of each plate, or even only one bite, but Ang Lee actually ate all six plates of food.
Although the amount of cold dishes was not much, to be able to eat all six plates of cold dishes in such a short time was not something that ordinary people could do.
"General Li has a good appetite! Haha! "
"I really envy General Li! Haha! "
The ministers sitting near Ang Lee saw that Ang Lee ate so cleanly and smiled to greet Ang Lee. Ang Lee could only smile back.
