Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty - Chapter 218
Chengyang and Wu Mei are going to Silla as an ambassador, but Li Yuanying is bored in Chang’an. Li Yuanying is not in a good mood.
The subordinates of the Hongxu Temple were basically escorted by him, and Li Yuanying urged Li Chengqian to recruit some people for the Hongxu Temple. Next year, the World Exposition will be over, and envoys from various countries will have to be sent back.
We are a country of etiquette, how can we not send guests home? If these people encounter any trouble on their way home or when they get home, we can send the delegation to help, so that they can participate in the exhibition happily after two years.
Li Chengqian felt that there was nothing wrong with these words. In the past, envoys came to Chang’an. Datang also gave gifts first, and then sent people back from Hongyou Temple. This time there are many countries invited, and there must be many envoys. Hongyou Temple cannot be less.
My uncles and nephews put together a total of four and fifty thousand people, and felt that it was almost enough to recruit four hundred and fifty thousand people. If one came to a hundred countries, four to five hundred people would be divided into four to five hundred people to **** a team. Are there too many people? Not much! If it weren’t for too many people, he felt that two or three hundred thousand people would be enough if he had a good deal!
After listening to Li Yuanying’s analysis, Li Chengqian didn’t think much, and together with Li Yuanying, they discussed the results of the two people’s discussions with His Majesty Li Er.
His Majesty Li Er heard Li Yuanying’s lion’s mouth open, and one mouth cost 50,000 people, and he almost wanted someone to throw Li Yuanying out. Does he know how many people are there to guard Chang’an?
His Majesty Li Er looked at Li Yuanying and Li Chengqian, and decided to call Changsun Wuji and the others to come and scold these two bastards. He is too lazy to scold him, and he can easily hurt his liver if he gets too angry.
Li Yuanying thought that His Majesty Li Er asked someone to come over to discuss it, but was quickly sprayed out by a group of little old men to be unable to recruit teachers. It was the first time he saw the fighting power of Changsun Wuji and the others. Seeing how his Majesty Li Er and Li Chengqian were accustomed to them, he admired them very much.
Seeing that things were not going to happen, Li Yuanying reluctantly gave in: “Five thousand won’t work, two to thirty thousand are okay, no matter how few people, our World Expo will lose momentum.” He continued to lobby against the artillery fire, “It’s a big deal, just If they were borrowed from other places, they will return to their positions after they have exercised. All of them are talents who can top ten. There are many such people in Tengzhou, and they have traveled a long way. I have seen the local customs in various places, whether it is to handle official duties or to deal with people and things. How can it be impossible to assign people to Hongyou Temple first, and it is not that these people should always be under the management of Hongyou Temple.”
After a fierce argument between the two parties, Li Yuanying finally left with the result that only 10,000 people could be seconded.
Changsun Wuji was a bit exhausted by Li Yuanying’s troubles. He stayed behind and told His Majesty Li Er that the prince put too much trust in Li Yuanying, and he even dared to do anything that would require 50,000 people to open his mouth! For Li Yuanying, the lion said nothing, and he dared to get angry if he didn’t give it to him!
His Majesty Li Er’s expression was faint, and he couldn’t see the joy or anger. It was because the grandson Wuji was so dry that he said: “Everyone has given it to him, let’s see what he does.” He is in the prime of life, with power steadily. Holding it in his hand, Li Yuanying was so stupid that he wanted to push the prince to do something with these ten thousand people. It was no different from seeking death. He didn’t think Li Yuanying would be so stupid.
Seeing that His Majesty Li Er said this, Changsun Wuji stopped persuading him. He could feel the attitude of His Majesty Li Er was changing, but he couldn’t figure out how it changed, so he could only watch the change.
Changsun Wuji went home with all kinds of thoughts. As soon as he entered the house, he heard that Li Yuanying had come and was talking to Zhang Sunchong, the royal horse. Princess Changle did not establish another princess mansion after getting married. Instead, she lived in the grandson mansion and served her in-laws with great care. She has always been a model for women in Chang’an.
Changsun Wuji knew that Li Yuanying had come, and his heart jumped, not feeling very good. He knows his son, he doesn’t have any skills. He has been mixed with Zongzheng Shaoqing as a husband. Although he doesn’t do anything bad, he loves to call friends to drink. He often gets drunk and is brought back by others. They are all worried that one day they will hear the news of their son drowning in the wine jar.
Changsun Wuji always felt that the two people who had no children might have something to do with their son’s alcohol addiction. If they had not been married for so many years, Changle would have had a weak body. What did Li Yuanying want to do when he came to see his son suddenly?
Changsun Wuji looked over and saw that Li Yuanying was holding her son’s hand vigorously and said: “I think, as Zongzheng Shaoqing has no future, you should come to our Hongyu Temple. I have been thinking about it for a long time today. Only you can do the best thing!”
When Changsun Wuji heard this, his heart burst into flames. Zongzheng Shaoqing had no future anymore, and that was also in charge of the affairs of the royal family and foreign relatives. If the official from the fourth grade official went to Hongyou Temple, Hongyou Temple Qing had been occupied by Li Yuanying, and only Hongyou Temple Cheng was left. That is the sixth grade official! As a consort, he is still going back more and more, saying that he will not be laughed to death?
What is hateful is that I don’t know what Li Yuanying said to his son, and his son is still excited.
Changsun Wuji couldn’t listen anymore, so he stepped in and interrupted their conversation with a smile, “I wonder what your Highness is going to do?”
Li Yuanying opened her eyes and started to digress: “Oh, A Chong is such a big man, you still call him Chong’er, it sounds weird. You still treat A Chong as a child, A Chong is no longer young, you should Let him do what he likes, don’t keep him in check, let him go and let him try.”
Changsun Wuji: “…”
Changsun Wuji really wanted to drive Li Yuanying out.
The father wanted to take care of his son at the first sight, and refused to leave. Li Yuanying could only change from lobbying on Changsun Wuji to lobbying on Changsun Wuji. The World Exposition must show off some of the treasures of the Tang Dynasty, such as the fine wines of the Tang Dynasty. He thought about it and thought it was the most suitable thing for Sun Chong.
Regarding the love of drinking, Chang’an City Chang Sun Chong ranked second, and no one would dare to be the first. Although it is not a good thing to be too addicted to alcohol, but he loves it all, it is better to let him play.
Li Yuanying said: “At that time, our exhibition venue will extend from Chang’an to Luoyang. This road is very defensive by water and land, and it will be very convenient to transport goods. Now people are sending back the willingness of countries to participate. We Space is being allocated, and the mission will assist them to build the pavilion as soon as they arrive.”
In Li Yuanying’s plan, the pavilions of the World Exposition were built voluntarily by generous dignitaries and wealthy individuals. They have funded the establishment of the exhibition hall, and in the future can have priority over the trade rights of the corresponding country to negotiate related goods, and they can also give priority to spending money to photograph these exotic exhibition halls after the exhibition.
Since there is a foreign pavilion, naturally there is also a Datang pavilion. For example, Li Yuanying came to Chang Sunchong to discuss the “Wine Culture” pavilion. A pavilion similar to the “Wine Street” was built around the theme of wine, and everything related to wine was built. Everything is integrated, the history of drinking, the poetry of wine, and the singing and dancing of wine are all displayed.
After reading the preliminary plan compiled by Li Yuanying, Changsun Chongbai immediately became fascinated, feeling that this was a place of immortality for him. He couldn’t wait to communicate with Li Yuanying for a long time, and talked to Li Yuanying about what else could be improved. This was the scene where Li Yuanying opened his mouth to dig someone.
Changsun Wuji only knew that Li Yuanying patted his chest and promised that he would not pay the court, but he did not know that Li Yuanying had to do so many famous halls. Li Yuanying and his Majesty Li Er are in the same line, everything is going to be big, how magnificent and more magnificent, this kind of “no matter what I want to do big things” momentum is very bluffing, no wonder his son will be fooled by Li Yuanying Fascinated.
Changsun Wuji smiled on his face and said, “A Chong can also be responsible for this while staying in Zongzheng Temple. There are already enough people in Hongyou Temple. Why let A Chong pass by?”
Li Yuanying heard what Changsun Wuji said, and suddenly remembered that she wanted 50,000 people to be chopped into ten thousand by Changsun Wuji.
Li Yuanying sighed: “I talked more and more about the contract with A Chong. I really want him to come to Hongyou Temple so that we can talk when we are fine. Now that you have said so, let A Chong work hard. Take care of everything!” Li Yuanying once again held Chang Sun Chong’s hand and asked Yin Yin, “Then the’wine’ piece can be handed over to you, if this pavilion is well run, all countries will treat us in the future. I can’t forget the good wines, greedy them, let them come once and still want to come, no matter how high the price is, they want to buy it!”
Chang Sun Chong is indeed the type of person who has been clearly arranged from childhood to most of the time. He has never made his own mind on anything. Li Yuanying’s phrase “let him try” really made him very excited.
Zhang Sunchong was full of passion and fighting spirit all at once: “No problem, it’s on me!”
Seeing Changsun Wuji’s expression of constipation, Li Yuanying stopped staying any more, and stood up and said that he was going to pick him up, the princess and Changle by the way. Chang Sun Chong now looks pleasing to Li Yuanying, thinking that Li Yuanying is his confidant, and eagerly leads Li Yuanying to see Changle.
Wei Shu and Changle had a good chat. Wei Shu was good at calligraphy and Changle was also quite accomplished in painting and calligraphy. The two would not be bored just talking about painting and calligraphy. Wei Shu was also fortunate to admire the authentic empress Longsun from the Changle collection, but unfortunately he couldn’t see it with his own eyes.
Changle was also very happy to see Li Yuanying, and Li Yuanying praised Wei Shu’s calligraphy well, and how well Li Yuanying’s calligraphy was.
Li Yuanying hummed: “Although my handwriting is not as good as my sister-in-law, it is also very good!” He thought for a while, and he passed the eldest nephew, then the third nephew, and then the fourth nephew, and finally gave an example, “Anyway, it must be better than Good pheasant slave!”
Both sides sat down and chatted, Li Yuanying and Wei Shu went back to the house. Changle asked Changsun Chong, “What’s the matter with Uncle Yao looking for you?”
Chang Sunchong told Changle about the wine culture exhibition hall, and when he mentioned wine, he was suddenly excited, and he didn’t look like he had to work as a errand on weekdays. After all the words were said, Chang Sun Chong finally remembered that Changle didn’t like him to drink and how much he advised him. He confided: “I have to arrange this exhibition hall. I will never drink too much.”
Changle hadn’t interrupted the enthusiastic Chang Sun Chong just now. He heard Chang Sun Chong say this before she said: “I believe you.” It’s finished, can you take me to see it?”
When Chang Sun Chong heard Chang Le say this, his heart was suddenly hot, and he immediately said, “Okay, I will take you there. Then we will be the first to pass.”
On the other side, Li Yuanying had already returned to Prince Teng’s Mansion with Wei Shu.
Wei Shu asked about how Li Yuanying and Changsun Chong were talking. Li Yuanying naturally said that he was successful and that there was nothing impossible for him to do. He just couldn’t help but mutter Changsun Wuji: “He just took me as a thief. , I don’t think A Chong did a great job at Zongzheng Temple, do you want A Chong to try another place? I think Honghe Temple is fun now!”
Wei Shu felt that Changsun Wuji was definitely not the only one who was guarding Li Yuanying as a thief.
Li Yuanying was not aware of this at all. After dinner, he said to Wei Shu: “Let’s go and see Xiaoyouyu and the others!” Since the young female general Li Youyu, Li Xiaoyuanqiu has started to move in the position in their Yaoyao’s mind. I moved back. I used to talk about seeing Li Xiaoyuanqiu, but now I changed to seeing Xiaoyouyu!
Wei Shu looked at Li Yuanying with a look of interest, and resisted not reminding him that Li Tai wanted to throw them out every time, and went to Wei Palace with Li Yuanying as a guest.
Yan was naturally happy when he saw Wei Shu, and eagerly pulled Wei Shu to talk.
Li Tai didn’t have such a good temper when he saw Li Yuanying, his face was darker than the bottom of the pot. Li Yuanying didn’t come to see Li Tai, but when she saw Li Tai’s expression, she became interested again. Seeing that Li Xiaoyuan and the others hadn’t come, he sat down unceremoniously and asked how the Li Taiwen History Museum was planned. The volunteers were not active in their work, saying “I am very active, I am serious, and I care about the progress of the preparation.” Dedicated appearance.
Li Tai was bluffed by Li Yuanying’s attitude, and she tried to sweep Li Yuanying out again and endured, and patiently picked out some important matters and talked to Li Yuanying. As a result, he was only halfway through, when Li Xiaoyuan ran over with his younger brother and sister, and shouted excitedly at Li Yuanying.
Although Li Yuanying has read all the books that he can read, he basically reads it as a story, but he is still not very good at literature and history. Li Tai is a little confused when he goes into it. He thinks that there are so many scholars who pay attention to it. How can there be so many twists and turns? If this doesn’t work, that doesn’t work, and it makes him faint!
So when she saw a few cute little dolls coming, Li Yuanying immediately forgot what question she had asked Li Tai just now, and took her grand niece and two grand nieces and ran outside to play.
Li Tai: “…”
This is really outrageous!
Next time, he must have someone keep Li Yuanying out, and Li Yuanying will not be allowed to step into the Wei Palace again!
The author has something to say:
Little Prince: The four nephews seem to be very cute when they are serious, but the children are more cute.
