Chapter 2472 Kong Jijiu actually touted Cheng Saburo in 'Luoyang Xunbao'
Chang'an City was the former capital of the Sui Dynasty. After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the capital was also established here for more than 20 years.
Nowadays, due to the rapid increase in population, the changeable climate and frequent disasters, Guanzhong can no longer bear such a heavy burden.
With the departure of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Li Chengqian, Chang'an's historical mission as the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty has also come to an end.
However, the geographical location of Guanzhong was still extremely important to the Tang Empire.
Therefore, Chang'an became the western capital of the Tang Empire and the most important hub on the Tang Silk Road.
Moreover, Guanzhong is a fertile land thousands of miles away. With the departure of a large number of people, at least the fragile ecology of Guanzhong can rest and recuperate.
Li Chengqian was sitting in the carriage, whispering quietly to his wife Su.
"Husband, I have always wanted to leave before, but now that I really have to leave, I feel a little reluctant..."
The Crown Princess Su, who was clinging to Li Chengqian, looked at the Chang'an City that was gradually getting away, and said in a low voice.
Li Chengqian nodded slightly, feeling quite emotional.
"Yes, after all, our husband and wife have lived in Guanzhong for so many years. We do feel a little uncomfortable for a while."
"However, we have no choice but to leave here...Guanzhong can no longer bear such a load."
"I understand. Fortunately, the emperor is sensible and my father is wise and decisive. Otherwise, if my husband were to rule the country in the future, he would inevitably have to lead the civil and military officials between Chang'an and Luoyang to work hard."
After hearing his wife's words, Li Chengqian's expression suddenly became strange. He looked around and whispered into Su's ear.
"Well, I still remember my father's expression when he heard about the food-seeking emperor and the horse-racing emperor..."
After hearing these two titles, Ms. Su quickly buried her head on her husband's shoulder, suppressed the laughter that almost escaped her lips, and raised her hand to lightly slap her husband. It was too inappropriate.
#####
His Royal Highness the Prince and his husband were laughing and joking quietly in the car, so naturally the guards and officials outside could not hear anything.
But as we were only ten miles away from Chang'an, the wind and heavy snow were already blowing in with the increasingly strong wind.
Eunuch Ning Zhong could only stand side by side with the coachman, sniffing his nose against the cold wind.
I just had a cold yesterday and it hasn't fully recovered yet. As a result, I encountered the cold again today, and my nose became more and more dripping with runny nose.
He cleared his nose from time to time, which made the coachman feel uncomfortable all over. However, this coachman could not afford to offend the Crown Prince's confidant, so he could only suppress his nausea and continue to focus on driving forward.
.
Ning Zhong had already put down the ear protection of the snowstorm hat he was wearing, and finally felt a little more comfortable.
That's right, now he is wearing a winter head-warming artifact produced by the Han and Tang Dynasties: a wind and snow hat.
The full name should be called ear protection wind and snow hat. This kind of cotton winter hat was originally the standard equipment when the Han and Tang Dynasty trading houses provided winter clothes to the Tang Dynasty military.
Because this kind of hat is not only warm, but also can protect people's ears from freezing in the steep cold winter in the north.
Therefore, once word spread, it was instantly welcomed by the general public.
Just like now, the coachmen around him and the soldiers guarding both sides of the prince's carriage were wearing those things on their heads.
As the snowflakes flew in, Zhang Xuansu had already retreated into the carriage. The small iron stove in the carriage continued to radiate warmth.
Although it is not as good as being in the house, it is much better than having to hold a small charcoal stove in the past.
At least it's below freezing outside, but the temperature inside the car can be maintained at around ten degrees, so that people won't shiver all over.
There was also the steam from the kettle fixed on the iron stove, which kept the inside of the carriage from being too dry.
After warming his hands for a while, and finally feeling a lot more comfortable, Zhang Xuansu asked his confidant, who was also huddled in the carriage to warm himself by the fire, to hand over the newspaper.
I just glanced at it and felt something was wrong.
""Luoyang Xunbao", when did this newspaper become available?"
"Sir, this is new today. The newsboy said that it is different from most of the content published in the "Chang'an Xun Bao"."
"I thought you liked reading newspapers, sir, so I bought a copy of them all."
Hearing the words of personal follow-up, Zhang Xuansu nodded slightly with satisfaction, looked at and nodded while stroking his long beard.
"Hmm... I didn't expect that Luoyang actually has a newspaper. I would like to take a closer look."
#####
As Prince Zhan Shi, when Yu Zhining heard that it had started to snow, he quickly got out of the carriage, rode his horse and began to inspect the team.
While communicating with the generals responsible for the escort, I tried to get to the campsite and settle down before it got dark.
Just when Yu Zhining passed a carriage, he suddenly heard an exclamation coming from inside the carriage.
"This, this is impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
Such a familiar voice immediately made Yu Zhining react. The one who made the shout was Zhang Xuansu, the young master.
However, Yu Zhining really didn't understand what Zhang Shaozhan, who was huddled in the carriage in the wind and snow, was yelling about.
I couldn't help but rush to the side of the carriage, knocking on the wall of the carriage and shouting.
"Shao Zhan Shi, is Zhang Shao Zhan Shi here?"
Soon, the curtains of the carriage were lifted up, revealing a face that looked a little angry. It was none other than the young master Zhang Xuansu.
"Zhang Shaozhan, I just heard you yelling loudly there. May I ask what happened?"
Zhang Xuansu, whose face turned red and was filled with anger, heard this question and couldn't help but subconsciously complained.
"Then, that Kong Jijiu actually praised Cheng Sanlang in the "Luoyang Xun Bao"..."
"Huh?" Yu Zhining heard this and couldn't help but subconsciously reached out and rubbed his ears.
"Who do you think is flattering whom?"
#####
Ten breaths later, Yu Zhining sat in Zhang Xuansu's carriage and stared at the "Luoyang Xun Bao" in his hand with his mouth open.
Looking at the familiar writing style, in the article, Cheng Sanlang, Li Dejiao, Wu Wang Li Ke and other martial arts disciples of the Tang Dynasty were praised.
There was also an attitude that was almost flattering, yet the praise was well-founded. This really refreshed Yu Zhining's outlook on life.
The first thought that flashed through my mind was that I didn't expect that this respected and learned scholar would actually betray the ranks of the literati of the Tang Dynasty.
The second thought was, could it be possible that Kong Jijiu encountered some difficult and hidden disease? He was worried about his own life.
As a last resort, I can only suppress the disgust in my heart and sing praises for that monster...
