Volume 1: Entering the Tang Dynasty Chapter 82: Handwriting
"When Xiuning returns to Chang'an, I believe Mr. Lu will come back with him. We might as well meet him then!" Li Yuan pondered for a while and then said to Li Shimin. After all, Lu Chen already knew about the Li family's plan.
, we will see what Lu Chen says then!
If it is revealed that it is detrimental to the Li family, it is impossible to say that even "banishing the immortal" will not affect the Li family's prosperity.
"My son understands, then I will resign now!" Li Shimin stood up and saluted Li Yuan.
"Go! As long as you know this and I know it!" Li Yuan nodded towards Li Shimin and gave Li Shimin a warning.
"Shimin knows!" Li Shimin responded, then turned and left Nuange. Looking at the leaving figure of his second son, Li Yuan fell into deep thought again.
Regarding this matter, Li Jiancheng, who was far away in Youzhou, also received a letter from his sister Li Xiuning. However, after reading the letter, Li Jiancheng burned Li Xiuning's letter immediately. As for the reply, Li Jiancheng did not write it because he had already decided to do this.
Let’s wait until we return to Chang’an to discuss the matter.
"Cough! Cough!" Li Jiancheng coughed violently several times, his face became abnormally flushed, and he was obviously suffering from severe chest tightness.
"Your Highness, are you okay?" Someone asked outside the door at this time. Listening to the voice, Li Jiancheng knew it was Li Yi. Li Yi would chat with Li Jiancheng at this time every day. After all, this is Li Yi's territory, and Li Jiancheng cannot be too
Don't give Li Yi face.
"Oh! It's okay!" Li Jiancheng replied in the study, "Is there something wrong with Prince Yan?" Li Jiancheng asked through the door of the study.
"Can't you come over to pay your respects to His Highness the Crown Prince if you have nothing to do?" Li Yi laughed and pushed open the door of the study. It was obvious that he did not regard himself as an outsider. He walked in and casually bowed his hand to Li Jiancheng, but Li Jiancheng remained the same.
He was greeted with a smile, and he didn't seem to show any displeasure at Li Yi's behavior.
"Prince Yan is interested! Prince Yan, please take a seat! Come, serve tea!" Li Jiancheng greeted him from the door, and Li Yi was not polite and sat directly on the guest seat.
Soon a servant brought soup and tea, which were placed on the small table in front of Li Jiancheng and Li Yi.
"I heard His Highness coughing just now. Could it be that he is feeling unwell?" Li Yi picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea soup, asking with a slightly concerned expression.
"Hey!" Li Jiancheng took a sip of soup and tea and sighed, "I didn't expect that the winter in Youzhou would be so cold. I just felt the wind and cold these two days! When I came here, I realized the difficulty of Prince Yan's garrison here!" Li Jiancheng
He said with deep feeling.
"Haha!" After hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Li Yi laughed a few times, "Your Highness has lived in the pass for a long time, so naturally it is difficult to get used to the water and soil of the north. As ministers, we naturally have the responsibility to guard the land and borders. Your Highness can do this
I can't thank you enough for caring about me!" Li Yi said words of gratitude, with a rather complacent expression on his face, and said with an arched hand towards Li Jiancheng.
"If Prince Yan hadn't guarded the territory well, I'm afraid that the Turks would have gone south to seize the pass. On behalf of the tens of millions of people in the pass, I would like to express my gratitude to Prince Yan here!" Li Jiancheng said and gave a salute to Li Yi.
Li Yi hurriedly stood up and evaded, but this evasion was somewhat slow, and the expression on his face was somewhat proud, but he said: "How can this make your highness a shameful servant?"
"Originally, I have prepared some songs and dances for Your Highness, but now it seems that Your Highness may not have time to watch them!" Seeing Li Jiancheng coughing twice more, Li Yi said with some regret in his tone.
"I'm not feeling well. I really can't have a drink with Prince Yan today!" Li Jiancheng also said with a regretful expression.
"In that case, I will resign. I hope Your Highness will take care of yourself!" Li Yi stood up and saluted Li Jiancheng.
"Prince Yan, please go slowly. I'm not feeling well, so I'll send you to him not far away!" Li Jiancheng stood up and said.
"His Royal Highness is in critical condition, I will leave!" After Li Yi said that, he turned around and left Li Jiancheng's study. In the study, Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yi's leaving back, his eyes darkening.
"I don't know what happened to Xuancheng's side!" Li Jiancheng stood at the door of the study and looked in the direction of Niangziguan.
After tasting Tieguanyin, Lu Chen felt refreshed and asked Liu Jing to put away his things. Lu Chen walked out of the main room and came to the white fox tied in the corner of the yard. At this time, Liu Laosan had already built the manger.
It has been placed in front of the white fox, and fodder has been added to the manger. The white fox is eating the fodder happily.
The afternoon passed peacefully until the next day, when Lu Chen was taken by Lu Qiuming to see Li Xiuning.
Arriving at Li Xiuning's residence, Lu Qiuming took Lu Chen directly to the study. Lu Chen and Li Xiuning were still in the study, with Lu Qiuming standing guard at the door.
"This is a handwriting written by me to Cheng Zhijie and Wei Zheng. Sir, please see if there is anything wrong with it?" Li Xiuning put two pieces of tissue paper in front of Lu Chen, who picked them up and looked at them.
The handwriting on the silk paper gave people a sense of elegance and elegance, and it also revealed the meaning of a golden war and an iron horse. However, it was all in traditional Chinese characters. Lu Chen had a hard time reading it. After reading it for a long time, Lu Chen still didn't understand some of the sentences in it.
, Lu Chen couldn't help but secretly regretted that he didn't learn traditional Chinese characters well before. Lu Chen looked at it for a while and nodded: "This is basically the way to go. What is written in His Highness's handwriting is already very clear!"
"Since you think there is no problem, sir, I will summon the two of them!" Li Xiuning saw that Lu Chen said that his writing was very appropriate, and she did not doubt him, so she directly ordered Lu Qiuming to send someone to notify Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng.
With little effort, Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng were led by soldiers to Li Xiuning's residence. At the door, Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng met. Cheng Yaojin glared at Wei Zheng, snorted coldly, and stepped forward.
At the gate of the mansion, Wei Zheng entered the mansion with a straight face. Although Wei Zheng was not convinced, there was a difference between superiority and inferiority. At this time, he was not Zheng Guogong, and his status with Cheng Yaojin, the Duke of Su, was still very different.
If there is a gap, we can only let Cheng Yaojin advance.
After watching Cheng Yaojin enter the mansion gate arrogantly, Wei Zheng directly cursed: "Reckless man!"
When they came to the hall, Li Xiuning was already sitting on the main seat, while Lu Chen was sitting on the first seat that Li Xiuning took, playing with the folding fan. He saw Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng walking into the hall one after another.
, Lu Chen smiled at the two of them and nodded.
"My lord, Wei Zheng has met Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
"My lord, Cheng Zhijie has met Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
The two of them saluted Li Xiuning in unison.
"You two gentlemen, no courtesy!" Li Xiuning said lightly.
"Your Highness, why are you calling me here?" Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Xiuning and asked.
"The purpose of calling you two this time is for the surrender of troops in Weizhou City. The more than 30,000 surrendered troops in Weizhou City require a lot of food and grass every day to feed the people and horses. Therefore, I have called you two in order to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Come here!" Li Xiuning looked at Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng and said, and after hearing Li Xiuning's words, the two of them took a secret look at Lu Chen, who was playing with the folding fan.
When Lu Chen saw the two of them peeking at him, he smiled at them.
"This is my palace's handwriting. You two can rely on this handwriting to go to Weizhou City to allocate troops according to what is written above!" Li Xiuning said and waved to Ye Zhu, who was standing aside, and Ye Zhu handed two bamboo tubes to them respectively. Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" The two of them took Li Xiuning's handwriting with both hands and saluted Li Xiuning.
"The allocation amount has been clarified in the handwriting. You two can go to Weizhou City tomorrow to find the general manager of Weizhou Tian Liuan who has surrendered the troops according to the handwriting!" Li Xiuning said again.
"Yes, I respectfully abide by His Highness's decree! I will retire!" Since Li Xiuning made his words so clear, there was no need for Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng to stay here, and they bowed directly and left.
"Since this matter is over, I'll take my leave!" Lu Chen stood up and saluted Li Xiuning, while winking at Li Xiuning. At this time, Cheng Yaojin and Wei Zheng also looked at each other at the gate, and then parted ways. .
"Yes!" Li Xiuning nodded. She naturally understood why Lu Chen was leaving now, so she did not try to persuade Lu Chen to stay. "By the way, the Imperial Palace will return to Chang'an in a few days, and the military advisor will be accompanying him! "Just when Lu Chen was about to turn around and leave, Li Xiuning said something to Lu Chen.
"I understand!" Lu Chen nodded and left Li Xiuning's mansion directly.
Lu Chen originally wanted to go to the Beiwei soldiers camp on the hillside, but after a second thought, he gave up the idea and walked towards his small courtyard. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Xue Wanjun on the way. , directly invited Lu Chen to Wei Zheng's courtyard.
"Why, General Xue wants to kidnap me?" Lu Chen said with a smile as he looked at Xue Wanjun.
"My lord is joking. I don't dare to kidnap you even if I have the courage to do so. It's true that Lord Wei is eager to discuss it with the military advisor!"
"Master Wei, what are you looking for?" After entering the main room, Lu Chen was not polite, sat down on the chair, looked at Wei Zheng and asked.
"Military advisor, after I read the princess's handwriting, I had some doubts in my mind, so I had no choice but to invite the military advisor for a discussion!" Wei Zheng said to Lu Chen, cupping his hands.
"Oh? Could it be that Mr. Wei thinks there is something wrong with His Highness's allocation?" Lu Chen looked at Wei Zheng as if he knew what he was asking.
"Military advisor, although we have an advantage in terms of numbers, I think this is inappropriate for letting that common man select his troops first!" Wei Zheng looked at Lu Chen with a bitter face.
"What's wrong with this? The priority selection does not mention the quantity. It only says that there is priority in selecting soldiers, and the number is 10,000. Isn't there enough for you to make a fuss about?" Lu Chen opened the folding fan and shook it lightly to remind him. A sentence from Wei Zheng.
Hearing Lu Chen's reminder, Wei Zheng suddenly looked like he had a sudden realization.
