Chapter 293 Mei Niang
Wu Meiniang is a smart person, she knows how to show her own value, so that Li Ke, who has seen countless people, can also see her different side from ordinary women, give her a high regard, and even take her seriously.

But Wu Meiniang didn't know that although she and Li Ke didn't know each other very well, Li Ke might already be the person who understood her best in the world.

The current Wu Meiniang is only a girl in her teens, and she cannot be compared with the queen Wu Zetian 40 years later, when the sun and the moon are in the sky, and the power is in full swing. I believe that the current Wu Meiniang is far from having such ambition and courage, but Li Ke never underestimated her at all, especially after hearing Wu Meiniang's words just now.

A girl who is only 11 years old has such a scheming plan. How can it be worth it when she grows up?

At this moment, Li Ke looked at Wu Meiniang, and suddenly remembered an anecdote that he had read in history books.

During the Zhenguan period, Tubo paid a tribute to a thousand-mile horse named Lion Cong. This horse traveled thousands of miles a day, and there was no one in ten thousand. Emperor Taizong was very happy about it. People in the palace offered suggestions, and there were many rewards for those who could subdue this horse, but no one could succeed, and gradually the matter was shelved.

But after Wu Meiniang learned of this, she recommended herself before the saint, please whip him with an iron whip, if he refuses to accept it, he will be hit with an iron hammer, if he still refuses to accept it, he will cut his throat with a short dagger, and kill him. , All four rooms were shocked.

It's hard to imagine that such vicious words were uttered by a girl in her teens, but just this incident, Wu Meiniang's ruthless heart has undoubtedly been revealed.

It's too much to do too much, although Wu Meiniang has scheming and means, but in Li Ke's view, he and she are still too anxious, especially in front of Li Ke, a person who knows her details so well.

Li Ke cupped his hands and thanked Wu Meiniang: "Thank you for telling me, my lady, Li Keming is very grateful for my kindness."

The Wu Meiniang in front of her is just a girl who has just turned eleven, and she is far from the city that will be decades later. No matter how smart she is, she will not be successful in Li Ke's eyes for the time being. Although Li Ke will not despise her, she is still far away. Far from being jealous.

But despite this, Li Ke is unwilling to be an enemy of Wu Meiniang. After all, if he does not offend such a person and is targeted, it is not a comfortable thing to see, so Li Ke just replied to Wu Meiniang pretending to be plain .

Seeing Li Ke's calm reaction, Wu Meiniang felt a faint sense of loss in her heart.

Ever since Wu Meiniang knew Li Ke's identity yesterday and knew that Li Ke was about to return to the east, she thought about it all night, thinking about how to make Li Ke look at her differently, and then she came up with a plan. After Li Ke offered his advice, Li Ke's performance became a bit dull.

"Could it be that what I said just now was already in the King of Chu's mind, that's why the King of Chu's reaction was so flat." Wu Meiniang didn't know that Li Ke's reaction was fake. She looked at Li Ke's appearance, and Wu Meiniang herself He secretly speculated in his heart.

Wu Meiniang didn't know what Li Ke was thinking, but she could only hide the disappointment in her eyes, opened a pair of beautiful eyes like autumn water, and then smiled at Li Ke: "Although I have known Your Highness for a short time, it is considered like old friends at first sight, Your Highness Always calling me 'Xiao Niang' is a little too much, you shouldn't be so repulsed by the children of your clan."

Wu Meiniang's words sounded like a joke at first, but there was a sense of intimacy between the lines. Li Ke also smiled when he heard the words, and replied without thinking: "What you said also makes sense. Mei Niang, how are you?"

"Mei Niang?"

Wu Meiniang was taken aback when she heard Li Ke's words, but she didn't know what she meant, but after thinking about it for a while, her heart suddenly blossomed.

"Your Highness calling me 'Meiniang' is very good, I am very happy." Wu Meiniang looked at Li Ke who seemed to be shining in front of her, and she who had always acted generously showed a rare shyness.

Wu Meiniang's blushing face fell into Li Ke's eyes, and even Li Ke felt strange looking at it.

How could it be that Li Ke didn't know that the "Meiniang" in his mouth and the "Meiniang" in Wu Meiniang's mind had completely different meanings.

Li Ke never asked Wu Meiniang's name, and only thought that the word "Meiniang" in the history books was her name, but he didn't know that Wu Meiniang was the daughter of a warrior, whose real name was Wu Jue. Although the name of Meiniang was passed down the most Guang, but it was only the "title" given by Li Shimin after she entered the palace in the 11th year of Zhenguan, which is why Wu Meiniang was stunned after hearing this title.

And the so-called "fascinating" means love and beauty.As the "Book of Songs" says: "Siqi Daren, the mother of King Wen, Simei Zhou Jiang, the wife of the Beijing family."

The title of Meiniang, if it is used between a man and a woman, is almost used as a nickname for the young man to the woman he loves, which is why Wu Meiniang was first surprised and then delighted when he heard the words.

Li Ke and Wu Meiniang are about to leave, but Li Ke rashly calls her "Meiniang", which is just in response to the situation.

When Wu Meiniang thought about it, it turned out that Li Ke had already been moved by her, but he had never had a good chance to speak up before.

"Your Highness is going back to the east this time, although he has to retreat completely, but His Highness is not an ordinary person, and there will be dangers along the way, Your Highness must be careful, Meiniang should pray for His Highness every day in Jiangling, and wait for His Highness to come to Jiangling again. "Wu Meiniang slightly bent her knees and said to Li Ke with a smile on her pretty face like a narcissus.

If Wu Meiniang had treated Li Ke as a friend before, and her words were still measured, now, after hearing the word "Meiniang" from Li Ke's mouth, Wu Meiniang's mood when she spoke to Li Ke was a little more ambiguous. , It sounds like a bit of a woman who is not a marketer.

Li Ke listened to Wu Meiniang's words, and faintly felt a little different, but he didn't ask any more questions, but just replied: "Meiniang is very kind, I thank you here, and in the future, I will be here again." Thank you."

After finishing speaking, Li Ke cupped his hands, got on his horse, and headed east.

Standing under the carriage, Wu Meiniang watched Li Ke gradually go away and disappeared from sight. Her eyes revealed a look that did not match her age and identity. This kind of look was called ambition, desire, but also called have no choice.

Wu Meiniang was young, and although she was a princess of the country, her situation was not as good as it seemed.

Although her father, warrior Xun, loves her very much, even more so than her brother, she is still a woman after all, and she knows very well that no matter how smart she is, the Wu family will not be handed over to her in the future.

And Samurai Xun is over fifty years old, his body is no longer as healthy as it was in previous years, and he often suffers from some diseases, no one knows how many years Samurai Xun still has.

The elder brother of the Wu family has always been at odds with his mother and siblings of the Wu family. If the samurai dies in the future and the brothers of the Wu family take charge of the Wu family, there will be no place for their mother and daughter in the Wu family. Therefore, Wu Meiniang had to make plans early, and Li Ke, the king of Chu, was in her eyes. The most stable leaning.

If Li Ke can get Li Ke's preference, it is said that it is the Wufu, how many people in the world can neglect her?

　There has never been a clear conclusion on the name of Wu Meiniang. I would like to say that the Wu Sui mentioned in this chapter is based on the records in the "New Book of Tang": "Zetian Shunsheng Empress Wu's family taboo, Bingzhou Wenshui people." Although this Wu Sui This name may have been miswritten by Wu Zhao during the copying process, but Jin Yan thinks this is more reliable.
