Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty - Chapter 217
Li Yuanying slapped her flattery with a precise angle, and easily scratched her itchy place with a few words.
Chengyang Jinshi all passed the exam, can’t he be a messenger to watch the ceremony? There hasn’t been such a thing since ancient times, so why can’t Datang have it? Now that the Haishi is doing well, Du He and the others will surely be able to keep Chengyang safe, and it is not a big problem for Chengyang to go to Silla to watch the ceremony.
Seeing Li Er’s expression loosened, the Book of Rites cursed Li Yuanying as a shameless flatterer in his heart, knowing that he was not good.
The two brothers of the Li family were shameless, and Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites decided to retreat first and went to Changsun Wuji to talk about it. When Changsun Wuji heard that this was to let his niece go to sea, would it be worth it? Only a few days after Li Yuanying disappeared, something like this happened again, which really caused a headache.
Changsun Wuji approached Shang Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng to meet with His Majesty Li Er, and their opinions were very consistent: this is absolutely not the case!
His Majesty Li Er was annoyed. Li Yuanying drew him a map from Henan Province to Silla, indicating that this section of the road is close to thief, there are few reefs, the thief is stable, and the mackerel sharks and big fish are not very popular. Du He and the others usually love it. I wandered around here, and from time to time there was a drill against Goryeo, which scared the pirates and smugglers who had been on the sea to shrink. Therefore, it is safe and fast to go to Silla from here, and there is definitely no danger!
His Majesty Li Er also knew that there was no such thing as “certainly not”, but he also recognized that Li Yuanying said that the risk is very small, and that having a navy **** can surely keep the city safe.
His Majesty Li Er agreed to Li Yuanying, and now Changsun Wuji and them all came to oppose it, which made him feel very shameless. His Majesty Li Er began to play rogues: Chengyang is my own daughter, I love to let her go, you can’t control it. What is inconsistent with etiquette, what is dangerous at sea, I don’t listen, I don’t listen, I don’t listen.
His Majesty Li Er was very annoying to play a rogue, and Wei Zheng was so angry that he suffocated his breath and returned home. That day Li Yuanying ran to Ci’en Temple and finished playing, passing by Wei Zheng’s home, thinking that it has been a long time since I saw this old Wei, she missed it very much, so she asked someone to cut a few catties of venison and rode her horse to Wei. Home visit.
As a result, Wei Zheng wanted to sweep him out.
Li Yuanying was puzzled, she seemed to be pretty recently, and didn’t offend Old Wei. He squeezed in the door, took the venison to Pei’s cooking by himself, ran to Wei Zheng to show his courtesy, and asked Wei Zheng why he was angry.
Wei Zheng had nothing to do with him, so he could only scold him for urging His Majesty Li Er to let Chengyang go to Silla.
Li Yuanying said: “Chengyang and Manman are classmates. The succession of classmates is such a happy event. Chengyang went to see what happened? The third nephew and the fourth nephew have also been to Tubo as an envoy to Korea. Why can’t Chengyang go there anymore? Do you also think that girls shouldn’t go out for a walk, girls shouldn’t broaden their horizons, and that girls’ envoys on behalf of the Tang Dynasty will damage the face of Tang Dynasty?” Li Yuanying thought it was too strange, “Everyone has fathers and mothers, the same Born and grown up, why can boys do it, but girls can’t do it? Is it just because girls have lost a piece of meat under their crotch?”
Wei Zheng was filled with energy and blood by Li Yuanying’s remarks. Did he talk like that? What is a piece of meat under the crotch? It’s vulgar!
Wei Zheng scolded: “You just returned to Chang’an for a few days to spare so many things?!”
Li Yuanying was a little aggrieved: “I didn’t return to Chang’an, too.” He was even more comfortable in Tengzhou. Had it not been for the emperor’s brother to explain that he was allowed to play around after the World Expo this year, he would not come back.
Wei Zheng had nothing to do with Li Yuanying, nor could he think of how to convince Li Yuanying.
I have to say that Li Yuanying’s words also sound reasonable. Your Majesty Li Er, who is a yeah, is willing to let his daughter go. Why are they stopping?
Princess Datang went to observe the ceremony in person, and she might be able to make Jin Shengman sit more securely as the leader of the country. His Majesty Li Er has never given up on using troops against Goryeo, and the court has also supported Sillato. If Jin Shengman can quickly gain a foothold, it would be a great thing for Datang.
Datang can have princesses who dare to go out of the country and use the princess as an envoy to go to various countries. Later generations may even exaggerate the openness and prosperity of Tang when they mention it. If it weren’t for having enough confidence in one’s own national power, who would dare to let a weak woman be a messenger for a long journey?
Although Li Yuanying said that there is no difference between boys and girls, in fact there are still differences, at least in physical strength. It is generally difficult for women’s bodies to bear the pain of running around.
Unexpectedly, Princess Chengyang, who looked the most worry-free since childhood, would be the first person to take this step.
Wei Zheng sighed, helplessly and Li Yuanying had a meal of fat and delicious stewed deer breast. Pei’s is best at curing venison. This stewed venison sauce is fragrant and tender, and it is delicious and easy to eat.
On the second day, Wei Zheng turned his back. Not only did he support Chengyang’s mission, he also further proposed that Chengyang should be directly used as an envoy, and he methodically stated the important strategic significance of this move for the management of Liaodong.
Li Yuanying, the instigator, was picked up to listen to him, and he was dumbfounded. He just wanted Chengyang to play, but he didn’t expect Wei Zheng to figure out so many things.
Jiang is really old and hot, he has to study hard!
Li Yuanying humiliatedly clung to his Majesty Li Er’s side and applauded Wei Zheng: “That’s right, that’s it. Brother Huang, listen to it, that’s the reason!”
His Majesty Li Er is also quite satisfied.
Yes, that’s the case. He is not only showing the power of the Tang Dynasty to the kingdoms of Silla, but also exploring Liaodong.
Both Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling felt that Wei Zheng could not do this honestly: Knowing that Li Yuanying is your grandson-in-law, you don’t have to go so fast, right? You are also a stern admonisher anyway, why are you shameless? !
As the opposition camp had a traitor, who was also excellent in eloquence and venomous words, Chengyang and Wu Mei’s mission to Silla was settled. Only when the mission took the credential to Tengzhou and met them, they could set off.
Li Yuanying went back and had a good relationship with Wei Shu and praised Wei Zheng, saying that this old Wei is very good and powerful, and he wants to learn more from him. Today Chengyang can go, but tomorrow it will be their turn. It’s great!
Compared with Li Yuanying’s cheerfulness, the eldest grandson Wuji was in a less beautiful mood. After returning home, he called his son and daughter-in-law, and asked the daughter-in-law Changle Princess to write a letter to Chengyang, and persuaded her auntie’s sister not to let Chengyang follow Li Yuanying’s chaos.
Princess Changle knew that Chengyang was going to Silla. She was married at the age of twelve or thirteen and married into her uncle’s house. Everyone treated her well and lived smoothly and happily. Although the body is a little weak, it has improved a lot in the past few years.
As a princess of the Tang Dynasty, it is very good to have such a caring husband and son-in-law, and to have such a smooth and peaceful life. Princess Changle has always been quite satisfied.
She didn’t expect that Chengyang, the quietest and less talkative person between them, not only followed Li Yuanying to the Imperial College to study, not only relied on his own ability to test a female Jinshi, but now also represented Datang as an ambassador to Silla.
Princess Changle suddenly remembered that Li Yuanying came to see her in the mansion many years ago, and persuaded her to go out more often, saying that women can also live wonderful and interesting lives. At that time, she only felt that Li Yuanying was young and naive, and that it was good for a woman to be a good husband and child in her life. How could she be more exciting and interesting?
Princess Changle returned to her residence and picked up a pen to write to Chengyang. She was a kind of gentle and virtuous from elementary school, and she was also very good at persuading people.
But after being soaked in ink, Princess Changle didn’t write for a long time.
She once listened to the female relatives talking about the women’s college in Tengzhou at a flower viewing banquet. Many people thought that the women over there went to the college to study just like the men. It was really not decent.
Forget about the poor girls, even many official daughters were sent over to welcome Li Yuanying. How can girls be like boys? Men and women are born different. Girls don’t get married well at home, learn how to manage the family, how to teach each other, what is the matter of running out every day? If you are all the daughters of good people, it’s okay. It’s just to make friends. The key is that there are still many people born in mud legs. If you go in and out with them, you will be laughed at!
Princess Changle put down the pen and sat quietly before the case for a long time, then took the pen again and wrote a letter to Chengyang.
Within a few days, Chengyang and Wu Mei received the will from Chang’an. After Wei Zheng’s rebellion, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling gave up struggling, closed their eyes and signed the edict, letting Chengyang be the envoy and Wu Mei as the deputy.
Chengyang and Wu Mei couldn’t believe it when they accepted the order.
When they wrote to Li Yuanying, they didn’t have much hope. Even if they were successful, they just wanted to be in the mission to watch the ceremony. They didn’t expect Li Yuanying to lead them directly.
After reading the letter brought by Li Yuanying’s dead skin, Lai Fai, and her servant, they knew that Wei Zheng had played a part in it.
Wu Mei smiled and said, “It seems that we are still in the light of Sister Shu.”
Li Yuanying couldn’t figure out why Wei Zheng would suddenly rebel, but Wu Mei suddenly figured out the joints: Wei Zheng is a stubborn old man, yes, but he also loves Wei Shu’s granddaughter very much. There are one or two exceptions to this kind of thing. So I got used to it.
This time Wei Zheng was fighting for them this time, but he was actually fighting for Wei Shu, and for more girls in the future.
No matter who is exposed, the matter is settled anyway.
Chengyang held the edict and laughed happily, and briskly lifted the skirt to talk to Du He about it. Du He has matured a lot after years of training. When he was young, he was a dude and didn’t have so many old-fashioned thoughts. Seeing Chengyang rarely laughed so openly, he naturally followed with joy. He patted his chest to show that she didn’t have to worry about anything. There is no danger with them on the road.
Di Renjie was a bit dissatisfied with this, and complained to Wu Mei unwillingly: “You can go out and play happily, but everything is on my head.” He also wants to go out to see!
Wu Mei looked at him with a light smile: “It’s not a difficult task for you. It won’t be a problem if you sit in Tengzhou.”
Di Renjie’s ears turned red, and he said calmly, “Of course there will be no problem.” After that, he stopped eating tea and stopped talking, and ran away.
Looking at Di Renjie’s back, Wu Mei couldn’t help smiling more happily.
Who would have wanted such a day before?
Two days later, Princess Changle’s letter was delivered to Chengyang. Chengyang usually communicates with Princess Changle, especially after the completion of the post office, and their sisters will regularly write letters about recent events.
However, the last time they communicated was last month, and a month has not passed. The letter came a bit suddenly.
Princess Changle has been raised by the Queen’s Grandson for the longest time, and she is also the most like Queen’s Grandson. She usually persuades their sisters.
News in Chang’an City must have spread quickly. Chengyang knew that Princess Changle might have written to Silla when she knew she was going to be an ambassador. He was ready to be scolded in his heart. She opened the letter and read it, but was stunned.
Princess Changle didn’t persuade her not to go, but in the letter she warned a lot: You have to prepare well when you go to Silla. The sea is windy and the waves are big, even if you are not in danger, it will be enough to suffer from the cold. So if you want to get out of the cabin to have a look, be sure to pick when the weather is good. Wear enough clothes and don’t get cold. I was born in Chang’an and grew up in Chang’an. I’m afraid that I won’t have the opportunity to visit other places. It’s rare for you to go out and take a good look at the scenery of the sea and the scenery of Silla. You wrote those letters about Tengzhou very well. I read it several times every time, as if I had seen it with my own eyes.
Chengyang looked at it, and somehow he shed tears.
The author has something to say:
Little Prince: I really just want everyone to go out and play!
