Chapter 0184 Prince Qi rides his horse across Chang'an
"Here!"
The guard quickly agreed.
"Forget it, I'll go in person."
After Li Yuanji gave the order, he felt something was wrong, and finally decided to go to meet Sun Simiao in person.
No matter how you say it, Sun Simiao is a big figure in Xinglin. People who Li Yuan usually couldn't invite are now included in his house, so he can naturally treat him with courtesy.
He forgot Sun Simiao outside the city. Sun Simiao might be resentful. If Yu Wenbao came forward, Yu Wenbao might not be able to eliminate Sun Simiao's resentment.
It would be great fun if Yu Wenbao and Sun Simiao could not talk to each other and his temper got angry and he got violent.
Although Sun Simiao always looked like he was being 'bullied', I felt that Sun Simiao had no cards.
If Sun Simiao really revealed his name, displayed his carriages and horses, and wanted to enter Chang'an City, Li Yuan might go out of the palace to greet him in person.
They used violence against Sun Simiao inside and outside Chang'an City, and some people helped Sun Simiao regain his position.
Li Yuanji asked Yang Miaoyan and Ah Jiu to dress him again.
He is now wearing casual clothes for home, and his clothes are disheveled. It is not easy for him to go out and show his face, so he must tidy up.
Yang Miaoyan felt a little bit of inexplicable loss in her heart, and she asked with a little bit of doubt: "Who is worthy of Alang to greet him late at night?"
With Li Yuanji's status, there were really few people in the Tang Dynasty who were worthy of him going to greet them late at night.
When he loses his temper, he can pretend to be a dead dog and avoid seeing Li Yuan.
Li Yuanji asked Ah Jiu to help him put on the crown, and said casually: "The god of Taibai Mountain, Sun Simiao."
Li Yuanji didn't try to keep things quiet with Yang Miaoyan, fearing that Yang Miaoyan would misunderstand that he was deliberately neglecting her.
Yang Miaoyan was surprised, "But Sun Simiao, the medicine king who lives in seclusion in Taibai Mountain?"
Yang Miaoyan studied medical skills for more than half a year after Li Yuanji went on the expedition. Not only did he learn some medical skills, he also had a certain understanding of some of the big names in the apricot forest.
Yang Miaoyan was well aware of Sun Simiao's position in Xinglin.
He also knew that this was someone Li Yuan wanted to invite, but could not.
Now that Li Yuanji has invited him, he really can't neglect it.
"good……"
Li Yuanji nodded in agreement, and then asked Yang Miaoyan's personal female officer to fetch a plain robe for him.
Li Yuanji actually prefers dark robes to look mature.
But in the summer, dark-colored robes tend to absorb heat, so you can only wear plain-colored robes.
Not just him, most of the dignitaries inside and outside the palace wear relatively plain clothes in summer.
Not only that, depending on the season, season, and weather, the colors and materials of the clothes you wear also vary.
Commonly known as the Four Seasons Clothes.
Only during large court gatherings would the dignitaries uniformly wear soap clothes, that is, official uniforms.
When Yang Miaoyan, the personal lady officer, brought the plain robe, he put it on for Li Yuanji himself. While tying the jade belt, necklace and other items for Li Yuanji, he asked: "Is this really Mr. Sun from Taibai Mountain? Don't you think so, Alang?"
I was deceived!"
Yang Miaoyan knew Sun Simiao's past better than Li Yuanji.
After all, Li Yuanji's understanding of Sun Simiao was limited to the meager memory of his predecessor and the historical records of Sun Simiao.
Yang Miaoyan knew much about Sun Simiao. He knew what officials Sun Simiao had been awarded, resigned from, and rejected several imperial edicts.
When the Tang Dynasty was first established, Li Yuan sent people to the countryside many times to look for talented people in order to show the importance he attached to talents.
Among the sages found was Sun Simiao.
Li Yuan personally issued an order to summon Sun Simiao to the palace to serve as imperial physician, but Sun Simiao declined.
Sun Simiao ignored Li Yuan, but he joined Li Yuanji's disciples.
Yang Miaoyan couldn't believe it.
After Yang Miaoyan arranged his clothes for him, Li Yuanji said with some laughter and tears: "How many people in the Tang Dynasty do you think dare to lie to me?"
After all, the cost of deceiving Li Yuan may not be as high as the cost of deceiving him.
Li Yuan is a sweet-tempered person. As long as someone he recognizes deceives him on some trivial matters, he will just pretend to be a fool and won't care too much.
Li Yuanji is different. Even if he doesn't care, Yu Wenbao will probably go and argue with him.
Yang Miaoyan was stunned, then laughed and said, "I was the one who was abrupt."
Before Li Yuanji could speak again, Yang Miaoyan said with a smile: "Where are Alang going to place Mr. Sun? Do you want me to help Mr. Sun prepare a place to live?"
Yang Miaoyan is the mistress of Prince Qi's Mansion. Ever since Li Yuanji handed over all the affairs of Prince Qi's Mansion to her, she has also shouldered the responsibilities that a hostess should bear.
If Li Yuanji wanted to place Sun Simiao in Prince Qi's palace, Yang Miaoyan should really take care of that trivial matter.
Li Yuanji sighed with emotion: "Mr. Sun is indifferent to fame and fortune, so he probably doesn't want to live in the palace. Moreover, he has accepted many young people and plans to train them as disciples.
The palace is not suitable for housing so many children."
Yang Miaoyan nodded thoughtfully and said: "My family also has several houses in the city, one of which has many wing rooms and a large yard, which should be suitable for housing Mr. Sun and his party.
I'll tell someone to get the key for you."
Li Yuanji nodded with satisfaction.
Yang Miaoyan quickly sent someone to get the key.
Li Yuanji took the key and the guards and hurried out of the main hall of Wude Hall.
After Li Yuanji left, Yang Miaoyan gave some instructions to the personal officer, and the female officer quickly left the main hall of Wude Hall.
Not long after Li Yuanji left the Wude Palace, the female personal officer also left the Wude Palace with a group of people.
Li Yuanji led his men and horses and rushed all the way to Gongli Gate.
The prison gatekeeper heard the commotion and came out of the doorway next to the city gate with a shout.
"Who is riding a horse in the palace in the middle of the night?!"
"It's His Royal Highness King Qi..."
"Good guy, open the door quickly!"
"..."
Before His Highness, King Qi, had accomplished great merits, he was so cruel that he did not want anything he did not want. Now that he has accomplished great merits, he cannot be offended.
After the palace door is locked, it is not allowed to be opened without an edict. It is useless in front of His Highness the King of Qi.
Only the prison gates of several important palace gates such as Taiji Gate, Liangyi Gate, and Ganlu Gate can stand firm in front of His Highness King Qi.
So when Li Yuanji rode his horse to Gongli Gate, the gate had already been opened.
Li Yuanji rushed past and praised, "Sensible..."
The prison guard at Gonglimen grinned with joy.
When the last accompanying guard of Prince Qi's Mansion crossed the Gongli Gate, a piece of gold cake was thrown at his feet.
The gatekeeper at Gonglimen quickly picked up the golden pancake, bit it happily, and became even more happy.
He carefully kicked the golden pancake into his arms, promised the guards to go back to a certain square to spend time together, and then hurried to the Liangyi Palace.
Li Yuanji could ignore the rules in the palace and act arrogantly, but he could not ignore them.
He let Li Yuanji out of Gonglimen, so he had to report to Li Yuan immediately and ask Li Yuan for forgiveness.
Li Yuan could only scold him a few times, but would not do anything to him.
After all, it was Li Yuan's own son who made the mistake. If Li Yuan did not punish his son, it would be difficult to punish him.
Li Yuanji galloped on his horse and passed through Changle Gate, Jinguang Gate, and Xing'an Gate in the same way, and appeared on Zhuque Street.
Because Li Yuan issued an edict that King Wu could not help but celebrate the whole country, Zhuque Street was still very lively.
Although it was already late at night, Zhuque Street was still crowded with people.
After all, there is probably only one chance to spend the night all year round, so the people of Chang'an City naturally want to stay up all night to experience the nightlife in Chang'an City.
Li Yuanji galloped down Zhuque Street, attracting a lot of curses.
Of the four words "that melon skin", only two "that"s came out, and it was quickly swallowed back.
Wu Hou, who was patrolling the streets, and Zuo Wuwei soldiers who were temporarily assigned to maintain 'public order' on Zhuque Street, fled when they heard the noise.
Anyone who dares to ride a horse on Zhuque Street in the middle of the night without fear of being caught by Marquis Wu or being impeached by the imperial censors must definitely have the surname Li.
It is very likely that he was a certain King of Qi, one of the most powerful Four Lis in the Tang Dynasty.
After all, the emperor would not leave the palace easily, and he would not be able to gallop his horse down Zhuque Street after leaving the palace. The prince was known for his virtues, so even if something serious happened, he would not be able to ignore etiquette and indulge in everything on Zhuque Street.
The horse galloped wildly; King Qin was famous for his majesty. If he galloped his horse wildly on Zhuque Street, something big must have happened. In that case, the palace would have ordered the street to be cleared.
So it can only be a certain King of Qi whose name is difficult to name.
As for the other kings, would you like to ride a horse on Zhuque Street?
If Li Gang doesn't catch you tomorrow and spit on your face, he won't call you Li Gang!
Li Yuanji rode his horse and rushed out of Mingdemen along Zhuque Street. He saw a shed erected outside the door at some time. A large group of Mingdemen guards were standing around, and all the people in shabby clothes were standing around.
People with their children and their children gathered around the shed.
As soon as Li Yuanji arrived, there was some panic among the people, but they were quickly calmed down by the guards at Mingde Gate.
"Your Majesty, Yin Yuan, comes to see you."
After Yin Yuan ordered his soldiers to appease the people, he hurried to Li Yuanji to salute.
Li Yuanji said with a surprised look on his face: "Are you...promoted?"
Yin Yuan nodded slightly awkwardly.
He was indeed promoted, and he was promoted three levels in one go.
But he didn't get promoted based on his ability, but because of his cheap guy Yin Qiao.
Yin Qiao suffered from armor-removing wind during the expedition, and when he was about to die, the relevant documents were also handed to Li Yuan's head.
Li Yuan thought of Yin Qiao's contribution to the Tang Dynasty and decisively promoted Yin Yuan.
After Yin Qiao was cured by Li Yuanji, Li Yuan had no choice but to remove Yin Yuan from his position and slapped himself in the face, so Yin Yuan's new official position was secure.
However, as a price, the reward Yin Qiao received from this eastern expedition was reduced by three points.
Yin Qiao was not dissatisfied at all about this.
When Li Yuan was critically ill, he did not cross the river and demolish the bridge, nor did he remove the mill and kill the donkey. Instead, he promoted his son to an official.
This shows that Li Yuan still cared about the friendship between them.
When Yin Qiao met such a monarch, he had no time to laugh. How could he be dissatisfied?
