Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty - Chapter 207

His Majesty Li Er wrote a good letter to send him to Tengzhou, and he heard that Li Xiang came to see him. His Majesty Li Er still loves this emperor’s grandson, who doesn’t like smart and cute children. He asked Li Xiang to put in, and after a while he saw a small head carefully poking in. The look of a ghost made Li Er’s Majesty think of Li Yuanying.

His Majesty Li Er inevitably scolded: “When you come in, come in, what do you do with the probe?”

Li Xiang was reprimanded by His Majesty Li Er, and muttered secretly in his heart: Unitary harm me! If you want to talk about things, you must first check whether the emperor’s grandfather is in a good mood, so that he gets scolded before he speaks!

Muttering back to muttering, Li Xiang was not afraid, and ran over and sat down beside His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er asked, he immediately told his majesty Li Er of his grand plan, and all the children of the clan family who were suitable for the age could not relax, so they all sent to the Hongwenguan to study. Since everyone is here to study, they should not be restricted by their status. They are all treated the same. No one is allowed to be special. In the future, regardless of whether they want to take up a civil or military position, they will have to pass the assessment together with other people. The sons and grandchildren of the dignified Li family have the best place to study since childhood, and the best teachers to teach. If you can’t even compare to ordinary children, then don’t dislike the lack of food, eat obediently and wait for death.

His Majesty Li Er listened patiently to what Li Xiang said, and took the plan that Li Xiang had put up on the ground. He glanced at Li Xiang and said, “If you can’t beat your brothers, what should you do?”

Li Xiang didn’t bother at all: “I’ll try to catch up with them if I can’t match. If I can’t catch up, I admit that they are better than me. It’s great to have a great brother to help me!” He beamed his eyes, yes. The brothers are expecting high, “If they are very good, I will be comfortable, and I will leave everything to them, wherever I like to go and play.”

His Majesty Li Er: “…”

Looking horizontally and vertically, I feel that this kid is very awkward, and it seems that he should be less likely to communicate with Li Yuanying. Use your toes to think that Your Majesty Li Er knows that this idea of ​​”calling everyone to the East Palace to play together” must have been given by Li Yuanying.

His Majesty Li Er said: “Go back, I will see how your plan is written.”

It’s enough for Li Xiang to have this sentence. If he doesn’t say no, it means there is a way! The lively and lovely Li Xiaoxiang ran away again.

His Majesty Li Er did not directly scold him back, but naturally agreed to Li Xiang’s idea. The Hongwen Hall is so big that it is okay to circle together for the prince princess and the clan children to study. It is not a bad thing for the younger generation to get together to play together. As for whether they can learn any real skills, it depends on whether they want to learn.

His Majesty Li Er hadn’t finished reading the plan that Li Xiang handed over, and someone handed the prince’s papers up again. The father and son were looking for something for him one after the other. His Majesty Li Er pondered and felt that it was Li Yuanying who was doing the trick again, 80%. He put aside Li Xiang’s plan and asked someone to bring the prince’s folded paper.

Li Chengqian wrote this essay very sincerely, carefully reviewed his own faults, and believed that he lacked some experience and needed to improve in many aspects. Then he began to write about his mental journey after becoming a prince. He said that he was indeed a bit passive and did not actively think about how to be a good prince. Now he has fully realized his mistakes, so since so many brothers have returned to Beijing Someone is filial piety in front of the father, he, the prince, can take the opportunity to go out and walk among the people, understand what the people think and ask, and strive to become a prince who can be loved by the people and supported by the officials.

His Majesty Li Er’s face twitched after reading this booklet. Looking at Li Chengqian’s destination, he naturally knew that this was Li Yuanying’s instigation again. Last year Li Yuanying tried to let Li Chengqian go to Tengzhou to play. At this moment, he felt that Li Chengqian was wronged, so he immediately mentioned the old saying again. The prince is not a good one, can it be solved by going out to play?

His Majesty Li Er couldn’t agree with Li Yuanying’s brain circuit at all, and he was also somewhat dissatisfied with Li Chengqian. He really didn’t think about moving the prince. He recalled his sons just to see how many people wanted to start with the prince.

Unexpectedly, Li Chengqian didn’t worry about it himself, and wanted to find Li Yuanying. What kind of drugs did Li Yuanying give them father and son? His Majesty Li Er was annoyed, and simply gave Li Chengqian the word “may” to see what use Li Chengqian could do for a trip to Tengzhou!

Both Li Chengqian and his son got the replies they wanted, and they completely lost the weight of the original storm, and each made preparations for the next arrangements. The originally stagnant atmosphere in the DPRK was broken by the decision of Li Chengqian and Li Xiang to go wild. Everyone began to discuss in private: What is the purpose of the father and son doing this?

Li Xiang summoned all the children of the clan to the Donggong Hongwenguan to study. He didn’t even let the three-year-old kid go. What did he say about contributing his garden as a “kindergarten”, what did he want to do? Do you really want to act in a drama like brothers and sisters, or do you want to take the opportunity to hold all the princes and brothers in your hands? This is too ruthless. Now the two countries are restraining each other and are not interested in holding other people’s children as protons! Li Xiang, the eldest grandson of the royal family, has been labeled as “be careful of people” in many people’s minds.

Of course, more people think that this is the idea of ​​the prince, who feels that the prince looks generous and kind, but he is actually quite cruel.

But then came the news that Li Chengqian was going to inspect Tengzhou, everyone was dumbfounded: Isn’t the prince stupid when he runs out of the bones?

Li Chengqian didn’t think he was stupid. Not only did he have to go to Tengzhou, he also had to select people from Chang’an who were willing to go to Tengzhou to do construction together. This is what Li Yuanying said to him in the letter. The official term of office is three or five years. There are many people who have expired on his side that he can pick up and use, but of course they can’t give them in vain. He has to bring in new talents in exchange. .

In this way, Tengzhou still suffers from one exchange for one! Li Yuanying would not be a loser in vain. In his letter, he eloquently stated how reluctant he was and how much he was at a loss. He also gave a detailed introduction of each individual’s ability and political achievements, so that Li Chengqian should not treat these pillars of the country.

Li Chengqian thinks his uncle is so cute that he even takes credit for himself. There is no shortage of talents in the East Palace, but this kind of talents who have been experienced underneath and who can be alone and govern a party are needed everywhere.

This kind of talent is indeed a disadvantage for Li Yuanying. Li Chengqian is also very serious in provoking people. It took a full month to finally finalize the list of the eastern tour, and he left Chang’an with the mighty people.

Naturally, Li Chengqian’s actions did not hide the eyes of others. Some people knew that these people were going to “exchange” in Tengzhou. They all felt that Li Chengqian and Li Yuanying were both brave, and a person who dared to push himself into the East Palace. , A person really dare to accept all the people. Even if they are not afraid of the other party cheating themselves, are they not afraid of Li Er’s suspicion?

His Majesty Li Er also knew that Li Chengqian picked someone to “substitute”, or Li Chengqian told him directly. Li Yuanying has indeed swept away a large number of talents, and now Li Chengqian is going to replace them, and Li Er’s Majesty has no objection.

As for whether the East Palace will all be Li Yuanying’s people in the future, and whether Li Chengqian will be linked with Li Yuanying to rebel, His Majesty Li Er has no such worry for the time being, but Li Yuanying’s dog temper, he will never do such a thankless thing to rebel. .

The dog-tempered Li Yuanying learned that his nephew was coming to play, and immediately forgot the anger of being scolded by His Majesty Li Er, and reluctantly reclassified His Majesty Li Er into the ranks of good emperor brothers. He convened a mobilization meeting with the people under his hand, saying that those who have expired can return to Beijing with Li Chengqian. He did not conceal the situation in Beijing, and he analyzed the risk of being the prince at this time to everyone clearly.

Everyone has an old and a young family, wives and daughters. They came to Tengzhou either because they wanted to experience experience or because of the friendship of classmates. Li Yuanying could not force them to follow along with their wealth because they trusted themselves to come to Tengzhou for construction. Stand alone. For people in official careers, standing on the wrong team will undoubtedly bring disaster!

After Li Yuanying finished the mobilization meeting, many people had already made a choice.

Tang Guan and Tang Jing were ready to follow the prince back to Beijing, and unswervingly supported the prince when he needed people most.

Wu Mei and Di Renjie decided to stay in Tengzhou. Because of their status, Wu Mei felt that she could play her best use in Tengzhou; Di Renjie didn’t want to return to Beijing to face family urges to marry him. He thought he was still young and still You can struggle for a few more years before thinking about starting a family!

Others also successively talked to Li Yuanying about their decision.

Regardless of whether he decides to return to Beijing or decide to stay, Li Yuanying pulls them one by one to have a long conversation, so that they can continue to work hard, no matter where they are, they must give their full attention to Datang.

After working for a long time, Li Yuanying finally got down to leisure. It was already mid-May, and the weather was very good. Li Yuanying took Wei Shu to the lake to play, and took a leisurely stroll in the Xuxu noon breeze on the painting boat.

When the boat reached the middle of the lake, Li Yuanying sighed while holding the tea, and said to Wei Shu, “I don’t know if I would harm them if I did this.” Faced with a choice at this time.

Wei Shu said, “There are no eggs under the covering.” Since Li Yuanying had already stood by the prince’s side early, those who followed Li Yuanying from the beginning had no choice but to support the prince. Even if they want to choose others, others may not believe them.

Li Yuanying never bothered for too long. After chatting with Wei Shu, she stopped struggling, and enthusiastically asked people to bring Pipa over, and he wanted to sing a little tune for Wei Shu.

After a while, Wei Shu was so irritated by him that he wanted to stop his mouth.

Li Yuanying was not embarrassed at all. She dared to sing out any red-faced words, and when Wei Shu was about to beat him, he smiled and threw the Pipa and rushed to hug his wife.

The waiters retreated far away tacitly, and all looked at each other and snickered.

The little prince should be happy.

Li Yuanying was happy for a long time, and when she returned to the palace, she heard Dai Ting report that the prince’s car should be able to arrive in Tengzhou tomorrow. Li Yuanying had a good night’s sleep that night, and rode her horse to meet his elder nephew the next morning, by the way, to see how the crops grew along the way.

When Li Chengqian entered Tengzhou, he stopped riding and went on horseback. He also took a good look at the scenery along the way.

On both sides of the official road, you can faintly see a lot of residential buildings, and there are often carriages and ox carts passing by on the road. Seeing them, the mighty group of people, they took the initiative to evade. Fortunately, the official road is spacious enough, even if the two teams meet, it is not narrow, and the road is unimpeded.

The two sides met soon.

As soon as Li Yuanying saw Li Chengqian, she immediately looked up and down with her horse’s belly and said, “I heard that you were injured last year. I’m worried!”

Li Chengqian dismounted and walked two steps, turned around and showed it to Li Yuanying, saying that he was all right. He also looked up and down at Li Yuanying, who was also dismounting, and smiled: “Uncle Yao has grown taller.”

Li Yuanying looked complacent: “That’s natural, I grow taller year after year.” He took Li Chengqian’s hand and talked for a long time before he remembered that there were so many people coming together, greeted Li Chengqian on horseback and returned to the city.

Before everyone came over, they knew that Li Yuanying and Li Chengqian’s nephew had a good relationship, and seeing them holding hands against the scorching sun still felt that they were too good. Is it possible to have such a friendship between nephews and uncles when born in the royal family? Many people who came to Tengzhou this time didn’t really want to go to Li Yuanying, they came here for the sake of the prince, and finally felt relieved to see the prince and Li Yuanying so close.

They all need to be experiential, where is the experience not? It is a good choice to come to Tengzhou!
