There were many people surrounding him, and they were discussing something as they walked. However, seeing Shangguan Yi giving directions, Li Hong went out from the other side.
Speaking of which, Shangguan Yi was also one of his tutors, but this tutor was too busy with official duties, so he only had three lessons from the day he became a tutor.
I don't know why Shangguan Yi, who is familiar with the Five Classics, only told him the "Book of Filial Piety". Although the story was easy to understand and easy to understand, Li Hong didn't like it very much. He asked Shangguan Yi to tell him the story of Zhuangzi's journey to Dapeng, but was rejected.
Shangguan Yi refused, claiming that the "Book of Filial Piety" is the foundation of human beings.
From then on, Shangguan Yi never gave him a lecture, and Li Hong stopped asking for it. This may mean that Shangguan Yi didn't like Li Hong's escapade, and Li Hong didn't like Shangguan Yi either.
old-fashioned.
Back in the East Palace, Pei Wanying came to greet her with a smile. Her belly was already very big. Li Hong was worried that if she continued like this, Pei Wanying's belly would explode.
Li Hong stepped forward and held Pei Wanying's arm and said: "There is no need to be so polite in the future."
Pei Wanying said: "I heard that His Highness was frustrated in Chang'an?"
Li Hong sighed and said: "Now that you are pregnant with Liujia, you cannot go on a killing spree at this time."
Pei Wanying said: "Then we will teach our children a lesson after they are born."
Li Hong looked at Pei Wanying strangely and said, "How are you going to teach them a lesson?"
Pei Wanying smiled and said: "I am just a housewife, so it is natural for Your Highness to teach them a lesson. If it is not convenient for Your Highness to take action, just choose some people from the Pei family."
Li Hong said with a confused expression: "Let's see the opportunity."
Mrs. Pei grabbed Li Hong's hand with her backhand, leaned her head on Li Hong's chest and whispered, "Sister Yun Na is coming back."
Li Hong frowned and said, "How did you know?"
Pei took out a copy of this chapter from her sleeve and showed it to Li Hongdao: "This is the chapter of the Yumen Pass guard who captured the envoy. Judging from the time on it, Yun Na entered Yumen Pass sixteen days ago."
Li Hong looked at the memorial and said: "Don't touch the imperial memorial in the future. This is not good."
Mrs. Pei looked at Li Hong in surprise and said, "Hasn't His Highness always been obsessed with Yun Na? How come he was so indifferent to the news of her return?"
Li Hong put away this chapter and said casually: "It's enough for me to know that she is fine. Okay, you go back and rest, and I'll go see the Taifu."
Li Hong did not show any surprise or joy, and Pei Wanying was a little disappointed. She was entrusted by the elders of the clan to show her magnanimity by supporting Li Hong to find Yun Na, and then made Li Hong feel indebted.
, so that she could extend Pei's hand into Chang'an through the prince.
Obviously, the prince did not give her this opportunity, which made Pei Wanying couldn't help but feel sorry for herself again.
Xu Jingzong has not had a maid by his side for a long time. The scholar who followed him for decades died five years ago. Now the one who serves him is the eldest son of the old scholar.
"When Zhou Xing went to Chang'an, I was still worried that Your Highness would not know how to advance or retreat, and would have tainted your name for nothing. I didn't expect His Highness to come back decisively, which is a great congratulation."
Li Hong personally poured a cup of tea and sent it to Xu Jingzong's hand and said: "It was Mrs. Yu who reminded Gu, but she just felt sorry for Gu, a student she had looked down on since childhood, and didn't want Gu to have anything to do with evil people like Zhou Xing.
"
Xu Jingzong nodded and said: "The Yu family is not comparable to ordinary housewives, so it is not surprising that she has such foresight.
I heard that Yunchu had destroyed Pei Jiman’s family in Jinyang?”
Li Hong chuckled and said, "It's just an act to establish prestige, and it's not aimed at the Pei family."
Xu Jingzong said: "I'm afraid the Pei family will not give up."
Li Hongdao: "The Crown Princess has already thought of a countermeasure for Gu."
Xu Jingzong said disapprovingly: "It's nothing more than allowing Pei to enter Chang'an. If Pei wants to die, your highness might as well agree."
Li Hong shook his head and said: "She is pregnant with Liujia after all."
Xu Jingzong sighed and said: "His Highness is really kind. In this regard, you do not follow His Majesty or the Queen, nor do you have anything to do with the temperaments of me and Yun Chu. This can only be said that Your Highness has a pure nature.
Chang'an is about to become a flesh and blood mill. The breadth of involvement and depth of investigation this time are unmatched by previous cases. Moreover, judging from the Queen's recent behavior, the finger points are pointed at Shangguan Yi.
It’s really weird.”
Li Hongdao: "Shangguanyi offended my mother, and my mother vowed to kill her."
Xu Jingzong sighed and said, "In this case, can Your Highness find a worry-free paradise?"
Li Hongdao: "When Pei's delivery date came three days later and Lin'er was born, the solitary king began to prepare for Master Xuanzang to bring the Buddha's relics to Beijing for enshrinement.
I am afraid that I will go to Famen Temple."
Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "The Crown Princess came to me the day before yesterday and asked me for advice on how she should deal with Yun Na, the leader of the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions, coming to the Tang Dynasty. I told her to treat it with a normal attitude."
Li Hong chuckled and said, "I am much more thoughtful than before, but I am still a stupid woman."
Xu Jingzong smiled and said: "It's already commendable. At least she has put some thought into it. You can't compare her with those monkey spirits in Yun's mansion.
But, speaking of it, heaven is still kind to His Highness. The two women around him are stupid and stupid, which should be a blessing to His Highness."
Li Hong immediately argued after hearing this: "Naha is just willful and has a brilliant nature. She is not stupid."
Xu Jingzong said helplessly: "If Princess Yunna is stupid, you should ask Yun Chu, who raised her personally, instead of asking me to say some words of praise against my will."
Li Hong stepped forward and wrapped the fallen fur quilt around Xu Jingzong, curled his lips and left Xu Jingzong's residence.
He knew the news of Naha's return earlier than anyone else. The moment Naha set out to leave the Great Buddhist Temple in the Western Region Buddhist Kingdom, the Beiting Protector not only sent out 3,000 cavalry for protection, but also sent a 600-mile emergency
The document was sent to him through the inn half a month ago.
Yun knew the news of Naha's return less than three days later than Li Hong, but the news was given to Yun Chu who was far away in Jinyang.
Both Yunchu and Li Hong knew that in order to truly save the Chang'an Liushui brand, the smooth flow of trade routes in the Western Regions was the top priority.
It was because of countless transactions from the Western Regions that Chang'an City established its status as the number one trading city. It was because of Naha's presence in the Western Regions that Yunchu saw the Liushui sign collapse and had enough confidence to save the collapsed Liushui.
The brand was rebuilt.
The lending center of the Western Regions Caravan in Chang'an is Naha's money bank. It is currently managed by Cui Yao, the former gentleman. Li Si has accepted Naha's overflow business.
Nowadays, the Zoroastrian temples, Persian temples, and Huihui temples in Chang'an City are basically controlled by Naha.
It is because of this relationship that Naha has the money to build her Great Buddhist Temple in the Western Regions like a fairyland. She also has the money to recruit desperadoes from the Western Regions and plunder all kinds of things for her all over the world.
treasure.
At this time, on the desolate Ganliang Road, a huge caravan stretching for dozens of miles was silently advancing. The Tang cavalry at the front who was responsible for opening the road looked at Xiao Guan appearing on the horizon and swayed hard
Holding the triangular flag hanging on the horse's stall, another cavalryman immediately took out his horn and blew it loudly.
The sound of the horn woke up Naha who was taking a nap. She opened her eyes impatiently and said to Dolma, who was holding a fat baby, "Why are you making such a fuss?"
Dolma, whose body and face were covered with thangka paintings, said quickly: "We should have arrived at Xiaoguan. Lord, we will soon turn to Xiaoguan Road. When Xiaoguan Road reaches the end, we will arrive at Guanzhong.
"
Naha glanced at the fat baby who was also woken up, and said disgustedly: "It's nothing like me when I was a kid. My brother probably won't like it."
Dolma looked down at the little baby girl with black hair, black eyes, soft flesh and pink flesh in her arms. She quickly raised the baby in front of Naha and said, "Look, Lord, the little princess is smiling at you."
Naha took the little baby girl and put it in her arms. Who knew that this child was smart? As soon as she got into Naha's arms, she buried her head on Naha's towering chest.
Naha muttered: "I'm two years old. I should have been eating goat's milk long ago. When I was two years old, even marmots ate it, but she didn't let me go."
Naha's other maid, Eliza, saw that Naha was trying to feed the baby and couldn't move, so she took the opportunity to say: "Master, there are some words in the letter sent by His Highness the Crown Prince that you should learn."
Naha said impatiently: "He always writes so many letters and talks so much nonsense, who can remember it?"
Elisa said quickly: "Not much, not much. Master Wukong has already summarized it for you, just some elite sentences. You just need to remember these sentences."
Listening to Eliza talking about the old monkey, Naha said regretfully: "He is unwilling to leave the Western Regions. My brother said in his letter that he misses him very much."
"Didn't Master Wukong say that he would help the king look after the house? You also know that your mother and that Afanti spend all day together and are unreliable."
Naha sighed and said: "If I tell my brother that my mother gave him another brother, will he be mad to death?"
Elisa shook her head and said: "I don't know. You also know that Junhou has a very bad temper, and your mother always does things that are not in line with his wishes."
Naha looked at the little baby girl in her arms. When the baby girl was full, she looked up at Naha with a smile. She would sometimes call her mother in a Chinese language, and sometimes call her mother in a Turkic language.
Although the pronunciation of the two is very close, in Naha's eyes, this is a sign of not being smart.
When she thought about her brother's two children, who could talk at ten months old, and her daughter who was almost two years old and even her mother called her "unscrupulous", Naha felt that if she gave this child to her brother, she might be killed by him.
Beat to death.
Yes, Li Hong looks so smart, but he gave birth to a stupid baby for him. If his smarter brother knew that his niece was so stupid, he would definitely be angry with him.
Thinking of this, Naha felt guilty for a while and said to Elisa: "Let's start learning."
Elisa immediately said: "If you want to open Qinlong, you must consolidate the west of the river. If you want to consolidate the west of the river, you must conquer the western regions."
Naha then read: "If you want to open Qinlong, you must consolidate the west of the river. If you want to consolidate the west of the river, you must conquer the western regions."
"Connecting a line across the vast desert, controlling the throats of five counties."
"Oh, don't say the next sentence. Let's learn the previous sentence before we talk about it. If we want to open Hexi, what must we solidify?"
