Thirteen-year-old Li Minglou didn't know this either. At her age, she was more concerned about whether she had new insights into the poem she read yesterday and whether the painting she wanted to make could be completed today.
Twenty-three-year-old Li Minglou basically continued to grow up like this, but because he was living in a foreign country and worried about his younger brother, current affairs and political affairs were the best way to understand the outside world and his younger brother. In order to express his relationship with others and his love for the captive lambs
She was reassured that Xiang would invite her to attend military staff meetings, and would also bring important news about current affairs to her on a daily basis.
I don’t know whether it is intentional or not, but many current affairs and political issues were sent here after they happened.
Or it would be useless for Li Minglou to send it in advance. It would be better to tell her a story after the matter is over and resolved. Anyway, all she cares about is that her little brother is safe.
The Xiang family specially arranged two staff for her, one is Jiang Liang who knows destiny and has a thorough understanding of world affairs, and the other is Liu Fan who is thirty years old and eager to try out world affairs.
"I thought Wu Zhang came to Beijing to celebrate the birthday of the imperial concubine." Liu Fan waved his sleeves and held a newspaper. His dark and thin face was red, and he seemed angry and excited. "Wu Zhang's wife's mother worked in the Luo family."
Wet nurse, he is from the Luo family, from Concubine Luo, and from all over the sea."
"No one wants to be the son-in-law of a wet nurse forever." Jiang Liang held a big tea bowl, the heat blurred his fair face due to obesity, and his voice seemed to be erratic.
"Wu Zhang can only be the son-in-law of the wet nurse, so that he can become the governor from a general." Liu Fan was indignant.
Jiang Liang's voice was still slow, and nothing in the world could move him: "From the capital general to the governor, he has endured for too long. To be able to endure for such a long time, he does not regard himself as a member of the Luo family."
Liu Fan rolled his sleeves and sighed: "It's a pity that if Wu Zhang had been conquered, all the eunuchs in the sea would not have been forced into such an embarrassing situation this time, because they have no soldiers."
"Things are not what they used to be. It's not that everything is safe with the emperor. It's not that the eunuchs across the sea don't know, it's just..." Jiang Liang took a sip of tea and said, "Is it his bad luck? But if Mr. Yu had
Please pass the memorial to him first..."
"You mean to ask the Lord and Mr. Yu to join Quanhai?" Liu Fan interrupted him, looking arrogant, "Why should we do this?"
Jiang Liang sat comfortably in an armchair and said calmly: "What I want is not to surrender to anyone, but to inherit Master Yu. With soldiers and horses like Jiannan Dao, Quanhai will definitely be moved. Quanhai will be the leader of the outer court."
The control is not as good as Cui Zheng, but speaking in front of the emperor is unmatched..."
Liu Fan frowned and followed his train of thought: "If my lord had taken Quan Hai's route at that time, Quan Hai would have convinced the Emperor Zhunyu Gongzi to inherit the throne, and he wouldn't have had to deal with it in the court for so long? So what?"
Jiang Liang looked at the tea bowl and blew on the hot tea: "Young Master Yu will get the banner two months in advance. If he can dispatch his troops one month in advance, he will enter the Huainan Road earlier. We probably won't be able to reach the east and west roads of Shannan."
I will sigh with joy."
Liu Fan high-fived: "That's it. The so-called step early, step early, wait three years for one step late." He repeatedly sighed at the pity, "If, if it had been like this..."
In the winter study room, Li Minglou was wrapped in a brocade jacket and holding a hand stove, looking at the two storytellers in front of him.
Although they are called staff, what is the difference between being Li Minglou's staff and those servants in the inner house? Naturally, they are arranged in this way because their status in the Xiang family is not valued.
They really regard this as telling a story, making judgments on various current events, and then using hindsight to express their frustration and frustration.
What used to be like hindsight is different now.
Li Minglou slowly wrote the memorial, carefully thinking about the officials in the court who she had never met but was familiar with between the lines. When she finished writing, the room was filled with green light, and Li Mingyu had already fallen asleep on the table.
Li Minglou put down his pen and waited for the folds to dry. He asked Li Mingyu to go to bed without waking him up. It would be dawn soon. If he wanted to sleep, he should sleep on the way. This time the return trip was not like when he came here, so he could sleep peacefully.
.
Li Minglou looked at his brother's face seriously, engraved in his eyes inch by inch.
Resurrected from the dead and met again, only to be separated again. I don’t know how long it will take to see each other again after this separation.
Although she was reluctant to let him go, she couldn't keep him by her side, nor could she go to him. She didn't know what the future would be like, and she was just about to work hard for the future.
When the sky was bright, Li Mingyu crooked her neck and knelt in Mrs. Li's arms and said she wanted to go back to Jiannan Road, which once again caused a panic in the Li family who had just breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Li did not think that a child wanted to leave home, and thought it was because of Li Fengchang and others. Li Mingyu defended her uncles and repeatedly stated that it was her own decision.
"My father is gone, so I want to be loyal and filial to him." The ten-year-old child looked up at Mrs. Li seriously and apologetically, "I just can't be filial to my grandmother."
Mrs. Li hugged him tightly and said, "These words are enough. Grandma, what else can I ask for? I'm just suffering from you at such a young age."
Li Mingyu turned away from her arms and looked indoors: "I'm not suffering. In fact, I just want to go back to Jiannan Road. It's my third uncle who's doing the hard work."
Li Fengyao was flattered: "Unfortunately, it's hard work."
So let him go back to Jiannan together.
"Of course you want to go, you are already familiar with it." Li Fengchang said, "In this case, Fengjing should go to Taiyuan Mansion."
But he didn't know when he was going to set off. Li Fengjing muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. Otherwise, if he offended Li Fengchang and refused to let him do this, he would really not get any opportunities or benefits.
The children and grandchildren worked together and were loyal and filial. Although Mrs. Li doted on her children, she also knew the seriousness of the matter. She personally selected eight trustworthy and capable servants and gave them to Li Mingyu and agreed to his departure.
Since we have to go home, there is no point in staying at home for an extra day. Everyone is busy getting ready.
There is no need for Yuanji to keep an eye on these matters personally, as Li Minglou is still sitting peacefully in the house.
"This is the memorial." She pointed to the table and said.
Yuanji took it, looking slightly hesitant.
"Uncle Yuanji, you can watch." Li Minglou said on his own initiative.
It can be seen that Yuanji's expression did not change. What made him slightly startled was Uncle Yuanji. This was the first time that Li Minglou called him this. What it meant was needless to say.
Yuanji put away the memorial and said, "I'll go back and read it."
Li Minglou said: "This memorial must be sent directly to Quanhai. Do we have the connections to do it?"
Of course Yuanji knew who Quan Hai was, and now everyone in the world knew that he was the eunuch in front of the emperor.
Taking the road across the sea is indeed the best way to get closer to the emperor.
Li Fengan naturally disdained to interact with Quan Hai, but the situation is different now. He should do things first, and a man can bend and stretch.
"Yes, Meng Ming from the Ministry of Rites is your close friend. He is related to Quan Hai by marriage." Yuan Jidao looked at Li Minglou, "I need to write a letter to him in your name, the eldest lady."
Li Minglou nodded: "You can arrange the other things."
Yuan Ji responded that he had no problem, he just needed to do things, but Li Minglou called him again and sat in a dark place indoors, looking at him through the gaps in the wrapping cloth.
