Chapter 182 The teachings of adults and the power of examples
Murong Nuohebo and Princess Honghua had four legitimate sons.
The eldest son Murong Zhong was appointed General Zuoweiwei and was named King of Qinghai.
The second son, Murong Wan, was appointed General Youying Yangwei and was named King Xuan of Qinghai.
The third son, Murong Zhi, was appointed General Zuo Xiaowei and was named King Xi of Qinghai.
Murong Fu was the youngest son, born after the fall of the country, and was nothing.
Of course, the three brothers above sound awesome, but in fact they are all false.
Not to mention that the land of Qinghai was occupied by Tubo, and the king and king Xuan of the country were just comfort, but those military attachés did not have real power.
For example, when Murong Zhong was seven years old, he was awarded General Zuo Weiwei, the third-rank military general of the Sixteenth Guards. What can a seven-year-old boy do?
Later, he was promoted to general, but he also had an empty post.
Even so, when Li Yan mentioned the princess's other three sons, Li Yiyan and Yang Zaisi were also moved.
Yang Zaisi said anxiously: "Those princes Murong have many members of the old Tuyuhun tribe under their command!"
Li Yiyan said solemnly: "Your Majesty asked them to stay in Liangzhou just to gather the remnants of the past and resist the invasion of Tibetan thieves. If they are instigated by the secret guards, they will definitely cause a catastrophe!"
Li Yan said: "Uncle, don't be too nervous. It's still in the speculation stage. The two sides are mortal enemies after all. The secret guards tortured Tuyuhun to the point of ruining the country. This kind of rebellion must not be easy. I didn't even consider it at first until I met this little prince...
"
Yang Zaisi said: "Yes, a child of seven or eight years old, knowing that the secret guard is the culprit of Tuyuhun, still obeys his orders. It is obvious that he has a deep obsession with restoring the country. It is possible that his three brothers also have some extravagant thoughts.
, will be used by the enemy!"
Li Yiyan said in a deep voice: "Liangzhou is the throat of Longyou, and it must not be messed up! Yuanfang, when you let the princess come to Beijing to meet the saint, do you want her to take the initiative to report this matter to the saint and wait respectfully for the saint's judgment?"
Li Yan nodded: "Yes, there is room for redemption in that way. Her sons have no real power. If they are sent to Chang'an, they can still get a lot of wealth, but if they stay in Liangzhou, they will really become disobedient."
, the whole family will be affected.”
Yang Zaisi frowned: "But Tuyuhun's old tribe only recognized the Xianbei royal family. Several princes have left. What will happen to those people? Are they under the jurisdiction of the Liangzhou governor? I'm afraid there will be trouble!"
Li Yandao: "We will take the king and the princess to Liangzhou and let them sit at the border."
Li Yiyan said: "This method is safe."
Their children were sent to Chang'an as hostages, while the princess and her wife stayed at the border.
After all, it was the Khan King and Queen who had ruled Tuyuhun for more than twenty years. They were stationed there, and the Gar family ruled the old land of Tuyuhun, which was not comfortable either.
However, since the couple were old, Li Zhi was considerate and allowed them to go to Beijing to enjoy their happiness.
If you don't educate your children well now, you will have to swallow the bitter consequences you have caused. If you continue to live in Bianzhou, don't even think about retirement...
After initially deciding how to deal with it, Li Yiyan and Yang Zaisi went to the envoys. Li Yan thought about it and prepared to go to Famen Temple for the last time.
The people suspected of being secret guards are most likely the secret successors of Xuanzang. Master Xuanzang held a lecture in Famen Temple sixteen years ago and accepted disciples at that time.
Therefore, when we go to Famen Temple, we need to find some capable monks to assist in investigating this matter...
Whoosh!
Just as he was thinking about it, a bald head flashed out.
Fa Ming appeared in front of him, clasping his hands together and smiling slightly.
Li Yan was startled: "Master, where did you come out from... Ahem, you haven't left yet?"
Fa Ming said: "How can the poor monk leave before Deputy Ambassador Li leaves?"
He didn't want to be the Buddha's bastard anymore, so he directly requested: "I hope that I, a poor monk, can accompany me and listen to my Buddhist teachings!"
Li Yan thought about this meaning for a moment, and finally understood why the other party was so enthusiastic: "Master, the method of understanding the mind in front of the relic stupa is just an exception. You should practice it in Famen Temple and serve around the Buddha's bone relic."
Fa Ming said: "To be honest with Deputy Li, the poor monk will go to Weiguo Temple in Luoyang in the near future. He has no longer practiced in Famen Temple. I thought it was because I, the Buddha, saw the poor monk's piety that he had the opportunity to make the poor monk's heart turn to me.
Never waver!"
First he was a tea seller, then he was an envoy from the Tang Dynasty, and now he wants to test my piety?
"You've heard too many Buddhist stories...wait a minute, Wei Guo Si Fa Ming!"
Li Yan's brows moved slightly, and he looked again at this monk with a solemn appearance.
I have been working on it for a long time. Historically, you are the one who presented Wu Zetian with the "Yun Jing Shenhuang Prophecy", preaching that Maitreya was reborn, building momentum for a heroine to rule the country, and providing theoretical basis for the empress to ascend the throne?
Li Yan was no longer polite. His mind-only energy was running in his body, and his expression became peaceful and peaceful: "I am about to go on a mission to Tibet, and I have something to ask of the master!"
Fa Ming said respectfully: "The poor monk must obey the law!"
"In the past, when Master Xuanzang was teaching Dharma, there were monks in the temple who were valued by the holy monks..."
When Li Yan said this, he paused: "Maybe it's not limited to monks, but it must be related to that lecture. Master Xuanzang accepted him as his successor. This matter is of great importance. I hope the master can find out for me. It is a great merit.
!”
This matter is difficult because Famen Temple is an unusual temple with a high turnover of personnel, and it will take a long time to investigate slowly.
Faming responded without hesitation: "Yes!"
Li Yan clasped his hands together: "Thank you!"
Fa Ming felt that he was sure to be reborn in bliss, and used the power of Buddhism to suppress his ecstasy: "How dare you! How dare you! The poor monk resigned!"
He bowed again and walked backwards. When he got out of the courtyard, he almost skipped while walking.
Li Yan shook his head speechlessly and walked out of the governor's mansion.
When I came to the stable where the lion was parked, I saw a little boy squatting in front of Xiao Hei from a distance, one person and one cat looking at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
Li Yan stepped forward: "Wan'er, you've been waiting for a long time, let's go!"
Shangguan Wan'er said: "I want to ride it, but it won't let me!"
Li Yan shook his head: "Xiao Hei can't ride. Just now, it was okay for him to carry you on the horse, but when you get under the horse, no matter how light your body is, it will easily put a burden on its waist and spine."
Shangguan Wan'er let out a disappointed sigh, then asked curiously: "Did the little prince explain? Why did he hide the package in the pedestal?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Yandao: "I have already explained that this matter is of great importance. You have made great contributions. What reward do you want?"
Shangguan Wan'er smiled and said: "I don't want rewards, I just want to help you!"
Li Yan looked at the flattering smile on her little face and said sternly: "Wan'er, I am not your father, nor am I your elder, let alone a highly respected 'Master Lijian'. You are using this title incorrectly."
Shangguan Wan'er's smile stiffened slightly, but she still tried her best: "But I feel like you are like an adult to me, very kind, and you have protected me before!"
Li Yan said: "You feel friendly, so it's okay to shout occasionally. Children's words are unscrupulous, but everything is too much, and you are always willing to please others. Over time, you will despise yourself."
Shangguan Wan'er's smile disappeared and she lowered her head.
Li Yan gently rubbed her head: "If you don't call me sir, as long as you do the right thing, I will protect you, let's go!"
He lifted Shangguan Wan'er and placed it on Xiao Hei, got on his horse and rushed towards the envoy.
Shangguan Wan'er's face showed anger at first, and then confusion. Finally, she leaned on Xiao Hei, touched the golden-black fur, and began to think again.
After thinking wildly for a moment, I fell asleep unconsciously.
Last night she worked hard for a long time on the pedestal. She got up early in the morning and worked hard to perform. After all, she is a child and she couldn't stand it any longer.
I don't know how long it took, but she woke up leisurely and found that the envoys were on their way again.
This time, compared to the normal march of the previous three days, the speed was significantly faster.
Some Wu Dewei was puzzled and stepped forward to ask.
Li Yiyan's cold voice sounded: "We must arrive in Liangzhou as quickly as possible, and we will have a rest when we get there. Everyone must not slack off any more!"
Shen Juyuan said loudly: "You should have gotten used to the days without hotel accommodation. How can we, the soldiers in the army, have warm beds and hothouses? It is even more bitter and cold in Tubo, and the feeling of sleeping in the wild is even more bitter!"
Yang Zaisi continued: "It is better to adapt now than to forcefully adapt to the enemy's territory."
This is the truth, but when everyone felt the cold wind blowing in the open field, their faces couldn't help but look ugly.
The suffering is about to begin tonight.
Murong Nuohebo and the little prince were also in the team. They tightened their clothes and no longer looked as dignified as before.
The little prince was stupid at first: "Father, are we going to Liangzhou? Are we going to be executed there?"
Murong Nuohebo said angrily: "It's all caused by you, the evil boy. Don't worry, your crime will not lead to death!"
The little prince was both happy and angry: "You gave me a good meal for lunch. I cried like that. Why didn't you tell me that I was just on my way?"
Murong Nuohebo roared: "Be content, that was your last good meal in a while, you ignorant scoundrel, you should be taught a lesson!"
In order to speed up, the envoy did not stop at the next county seat and kept on traveling on the official road.
It wasn't until the sun set in the west and night fell that, under the leadership of Shen Juyuan, they found a place that was sheltered from the wind and easy to defend as a camping ground.
Everyone placed the gifts for Tubo Zampu at the outside of the convoy, formed a circle, and then camped out in the center.
Shen Juyuan was busy and taught many survival skills in the wild.
Many things opened Li Yan's eyes, especially the Hulu on the soldier's waist.
Hulu is a wooden, leather-covered quiver that is usually hung on the waist.
The upper part in the middle has a waistband. When camping in the field, soldiers of the Tang army would use this as a pillow, put the quiver under their head and sleep on it.
The key is to use the hollow Hulu as a pillow. Because it is hollow in wood, it is an excellent resonance cavity, which can amplify the sound coming from the ground in the distance. If you sleep on it at night, you will hear the sound when people and horses are approaching, and you will be alert immediately. Get up.
The wisdom of the ancients!
Li Yan received a set of field equipment, smiled and said: "Wan'er, just sleep next to Xiao Hei, it will also protect you!"
Shangguan Wan'er said oh, watched Li Yan walk away, and subconsciously touched the needle box on her waist.
Shang Gong's stern instruction came to mind: "Observe everyone around you carefully. If you flatter me now, they will be used by you tomorrow... If you practice Shadowless Needle well, whoever dares to go against you will be killed." quietly……"
But then, she remembered Li Yan's gentle and concerned words: "Always striving to please others, over time, you will despise yourself... If you don't call me an adult, as long as you do the right thing, I will protect you... …”
Two voices mixed in her mind, and she was frowning and thinking, when suddenly her body softened, and Xiao Hei stretched out his tail and pulled her into his arms.
Shangguan Wan'er's mouth curled up, she hugged the big cat, no longer thinking about those troubles, and closed her eyes beautifully.
