Chapter 828 Li Chengqian and Xue Rengui have descendants
Chapter 828 Li Chengqian and Xue Rengui have a daughter
Inside an inn next to a concrete road.
Li Xuan, Li Chengqian and others were sitting in front of the window on the second floor, eating and looking at the cement road not far away.
From time to time, a caravan would come over, but after seeing this vicious general in the inn, most of them quickly turned around and continued walking forward.
Occasionally, two fast riders would pass by, running forward along the road with anxious faces.
"Third uncle, if we leave Uncle Wang in Hejian alone in Jiangning City, nothing will happen, right?"
After finishing lunch, Li Chengqian still felt a little sorry when he thought of Li Xiaogong who was left behind by a few of them yesterday!
At that time, it was very exciting to pack things with Li Xuan and run.
However, when I think about it, a dignified county prince, Zong Zheng of the Li Tang clan, came all the way to help them deal with those cunning and cunning family heads, but a group of them just packed up and ran away without even saying hello.
Way to go!
Similarly, Li Chongyi and Fang Yizhi on the side also had worried faces.
Especially Li Chongyi, leaving him alone and running away with his master?
Then when he goes back, will he be able to enjoy good fruits?
"Brother Prince Hejian is in Jiangning City, what could happen?"
Li Xuan glanced at the people at the table and said, "Brother Hejian is the king of Tang Dynasty. There are so many soldiers and horses in Jiangning City. Who can do anything to Brother Hejian?"
"Besides, if I don't sneak away early, what will happen to Brother Hejian?"
"ah?"
Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others were all stunned.
"Gao Ming and I have already explained our respective intentions to Brother Hejian in front of all the aristocratic families in Jiangning City.
In this way, Brother Hejian King only needs to be ruthless.
As for those aristocratic families, they all know that these things are the pressure we put on Brother Hejian. For the punishment of Brother Hejian, apart from feeling aggrieved in their hearts, they basically don't have much resentment.
Even Brother Hejian Prince can take advantage of this to cut off a few more pieces of flesh from those aristocratic families!"
Li Xuan explained.
"But Master, if I were waiting in Jiangning City, wouldn't it be..."
Li Chongyi asked again.
Li Xuan couldn't help but glance at Li Chongyi, "If we still stay in Jiangning City, those aristocratic families will have hope in their hearts. Instead of standing in front of Brother Wang's door in Hejian and begging every day, Brother Wang will come to intercede with us.
Or, it's the group of aristocratic families who stand in front of us every day, crying and begging...
Which of you likes to face these?"
"Hey, Master, you really have a lot of foresight!"
"My master is wise!"
At this time, Li Chongyi, Li Chengqian and others did not say another word.
Li Xuan continued to explain: "Also, I don't need to go too fast when I'm on my way back. While I'm having fun, I'll let Gao Ming inspect the states and counties he passes by on the way!"
"Yes, Master!"
This time, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others had no doubts.
There was even some joy in his eyes.
Now, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and they don't want to be on the road all the time, especially at noon.
It just so happens that I can take the opportunity to inspect the prefectures and counties I have passed through, and select prefectures and counties for them in the future, and get a few more suitable targets.
then.
This time, Li Xuan and his party spent nearly a month on their way back to Chang'an.
By the time Li Xuan and others returned to Chang'an, the matter in Jiangning City was already over.
Li Xiaogong had already taken the lead and returned to Chang'an.
…
Lijiazhuang.
In the King's Courtyard of Jin, Li Xuan was lying lazily on a large wicker chair.
On one side was a round table with a plate of fresh fruits and a large glass of chilling ale.
In front, Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others were sitting on the sofa, holding a plate of fresh fruits in their hands and eating non-stop.
This is the second day after Li Xuan returned to the other courtyard.
This time, he protected Li Chengqian on his tour of the Tang Dynasty, which took more than five months.
After coming back, Li Xuan never wanted to move again.
The same is true for Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others.
However, I had to come to Lijiazhuang because I had to report to Li Xuan what happened in Jiangning City.
"So, the Langya Wang family is completely gone?"
Li Xuan stuffed a piece of cold melon into his mouth and asked slowly.
"Exactly, all the descendants of the Langya Wang family and all the important people were killed. Some of the common people were demoted to slaves or exiled to the frontier. As for the Dandong vassal state of the Langya Wang family, there were also those from Tubo
The three cities were also resold to other aristocratic families! "
Li Chongyi reported in detail, “All the direct descendants of the Meng family in Jiangning City, Pingchang, were executed, and all the descendants of the imperial court who were closer to the direct descendants were also removed from their posts.
As for the rest of the branches, some money will be fined.
The Pingchang Meng family's feudal kingdom in Goguryeo, as well as the royal titles, were all taken back, just like the Langya Wang family!"
"The other aristocratic families in Jiangning City, such as the Langyayan family, the Gumu Xu family, the Liu family in Juxian County, Dongguan, and the Yuan family in Chenjun... executed some stewards and concubines who secretly harmed the people, and punished them with hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The people who were deceived into going to Goguryeo were released.
Those hundreds of people who came forward to identify the aristocratic families in Jiangning City, together with their families, were moved to Chang'an by me, Aye!"
"Also, during this period, the imperial court also discovered evil things among the major feudal families in the Tang Dynasty who secretly harmed the people and deceived them into feuding. Those families actively brought a large amount of money to Chang'an
, begging your majesty for forgiveness.
At the same time, he personally sent all those people back to the Tang Dynasty..."
"Master, I hope this meritorious service will be immeasurable!"
"Exactly, Master, we have saved thousands of Tang people this time!"
As he said this, Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others couldn't help but feel excited.
"Um!"
Li Xuan nodded calmly.
Seeing this, Li Chongyi was stunned.
Then, he remembered something and said quickly: "Master, there is one more thing!!"
"Um?"
Li Xuan looked at Li Chongyi subconsciously.
Li Chongyi said hurriedly: "Thousands of kilograms of gold were found this time from the homes of the Wang family in Langya and the Meng family in Pingchang. In addition, the aristocratic families in Jiangning City and the feudal aristocratic families also came to Chang'an this time.
Bring a lot of gold.
It adds up to a total of fifty thousand catties, and these can be regarded as things given to the master by those noble families as an apology!"
"Where is the gold?"
Li Xuan looked overjoyed. Even though he already had nearly 300,000 kilograms of gold in his Li family village, he was still a little happy about the 50,000 kilograms of gold.
"Master, the fifty thousand kilograms of gold are sitting on the carriage in the other courtyard at the door!"
Li Chongyi felt slightly relieved and said quickly.
In this way, a family that had been in power for hundreds of years was wiped out, and there was also a direct branch of the family, and with the apology from nearly a hundred families, the court made a huge fortune.
Together with this, the families of Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi, Fang Yizhi and others who went to Jiangning City this time also gained a lot.
Especially the shops and trade routes left by these two aristocratic families!
And Li Xuan, the main hero, must express himself.
Those 50,000 kilograms of gold represent it.
Li Xuan was also very satisfied with the 50,000 kilograms of gold. Although Li Xuan had a share of the trade routes left by the Langya Wang family and the Pingchang Meng family. Even the money earned every year could buy several 50,000 kilograms of gold.
Thousands of pounds of gold.
It can be considered a lot of money!
However, Li Xuan still valued these golds more.
Maybe it's the obsession in my heart.
Gold is the most precious and the most valuable!
"housekeeper!"
"What is your order, Your Majesty?"
Li Chang quickly responded with his hands raised.
"Take a few personal guards and send the 50,000 kilograms of gold to the warehouse for safekeeping!"
Li Xuan ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The butler Li Chang, who had a pair of copper-gold glasses on his nose, quickly bowed his hands in response and walked out quickly.
He also understood the importance of gold in the mind of his own king.
After a while.
Li Chang reported to Li Xuan again that fifty-one thousand kilograms of gold had been stored away.
Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction.
But Li Chongyi's heart was truly relaxed.
Afterwards, they chatted for a while again. After Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others had almost finished the second pot of fruits, Li Xuan was ready to drive them away.
"This time, we escorted Gao Ming to inspect more than half of the Tang Dynasty. We visited dozens of prefectures and nearly a hundred counties. You will think about it carefully when you get back. In the future, Gao Ming will be the magistrate of a certain county, and you will inevitably
Go back and assist Gao Ming.
Otherwise, you will also serve as the county magistrate and protect Gaoming County!"
"Thank you for the reminder, Master!"
Hearing this, Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others also looked solemn.
As the eldest sons of the nobles of the Tang Dynasty, no matter how stupid or foolish they act, they still have the political instincts they should have.
The prince of the Tang Dynasty wanted to decentralize the administration of prefectures and counties. This was a major event in the circle of nobles!
As long as a little bit of news is spread, many noble disciples will go crazy about it!
And if they want to become officials in the future, truly enter the power center of the Tang Dynasty, and grow their families, they must make a choice.
Soon, all the little bastards left with solemn faces!
In response, Li Xuan showed a slight smile.
Immediately, after taking another sip of ale, he slowly lay down and closed his eyes slightly.
Being able to lie on such a cool lounge chair in the hot weather is the most comfortable day in the summer!
As for the few months since Li Xuan left, there were old housekeeper Li Chang managing everything in Lijiazhuang, and Princess Cui Mi was in charge, so nothing major happened in Lijiazhuang.
And the fifty-two scholars brought back by Li Xuan have completely adapted to life in Lijiazhuang.
Among them, more than ten scholars also brought their parents over.
There are also five scholars who fell in love with the daughter of the banker in the village and got married!
Li Xuan was naturally happy to see this situation!
…
A few days later!
Li Chengqian came to Lijiazhuang.
Li Chang quickly brought several maids with him, serving a variety of fresh fruits and snacks, as well as a bottle of ale that had just been taken out of the ice cellar, and a glass of juice!
"Uncle Wang, Cheng Qian has thought carefully about the counties and counties we have visited in the past few months. Gao Ming already has a few counties in mind, and I would like to ask Uncle Wang to make a decision!"
Li Chengqian directly explained his intention.
"I decide?"
Li Xuan was stunned, and looked at Li Chengqian who was looking at him from the starting point in front of him with some surprise, and said: "In the future, you will be the county seat governed by yourself. How can I make a decision on you?"
"Back to Uncle Wang, Cheng Qian is the first prince in history to decentralize the governance of a county. There is no history to draw from, so we can only ask Uncle Wang for help!"
Li Chengqian continued.
"So you will be the first prince of all time!"
Li Xuan lay down lazily again.
"Uncle Wang, is this really the case?"
Li Chengqian looked happy and asked quickly.
"naturally!"
Li Xuan replied: "Have you ever seen any prince who would put down his dignity and start by managing the county? As long as you can manage the county well, make the people in the county rich, and the officials will govern the Qingming Festival.
Your Majesty will definitely look upon you with admiration, all the important officials in the imperial court will also trust you as the prince, and thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty will support you.
Then, you can govern a state, and then a...
You can then understand the situation of the entire Tang Dynasty, what are the demands of the people, what are the needs of the officials, and you can know the thoughts of the officials behind just any memorial!
Finally, when Your Majesty is tired and has enough confidence that you can govern the entire Tang Dynasty, you can successfully take over the throne!"
The more he listened, the brighter Li Chengqian's eyes became.
"How many uncles have you inherited?"
"No need to thank me!"
Li Xuan raised his hand and shook it.
"So, if you think you can govern that county by yourself and have a good impression of that county, just go to that county and become the county magistrate!"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian wanted to say something else.
Li Xuan continued: "Now that you are married, you are considered an adult. As a mature prince, you must learn to make your own decisions and make your own decisions. You cannot always ask others for everything!"
Li Chengqian nodded thoughtfully.
"Yes, Uncle Wang!"
"Is there anything else you can do?"
Li Xuan asked again.
"Go back to Uncle Wang, nothing happened!"
Li Chengqian quickly replied.
"You are also familiar with Lijiazhuang. You can do it yourself. I want to catch up on my sleep!"
With that said, Li Xuan turned over and ignored Li Chengqian.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but be speechless.
"In this case, Cheng Qian will not disturb Uncle Wang anymore. Cheng Qian will leave first!"
After saying that, Li Chengqian bowed his hands to Li Xuan and left on his own.
…
As August enters, the entire Guanzhong area becomes increasingly hotter.
The entire Lijiazhuang was also quiet. Except for some necessary matters, few people walked in the village.
Afternoon time!
As the scorching sun set, two carriages, escorted by personal guards, entered Lijiazhuang one after another.
"Xiangcheng is pregnant?"
After hearing the news reported by Xue Rengui, Li Xuan sat up with a look of surprise on his face.
"Hui Master, that's exactly what it is!"
Xue Rengui also nodded excitedly.
"Master, I have a wife too!"
Xue Rengui's face was full of excitement. In the few short years since he came to Lijiazhuang, he not only opened up and expanded the territory of the Tang Dynasty, but also made Pingyang County Marquis, married the princess of the Tang Dynasty, and now he has an heir!
All of this, looking back now, is still like a dream to him!
"Can you report such a big happy event to His Majesty?"
Li Xuan asked.
"Go back to Master, Xue Li has just sent someone to report to Your Majesty!"
Xue Rengui quickly replied.
"Very good!"
Li Xuan nodded slowly, then thought of something and glared at Xue Rengui again.
"Now, why don't you stay with Xiangcheng in Xuejiazhuang? What are you doing here?"
"Xue Li naturally wants to report this kind of happy event to Master!"
Xue Rengui laughed.
Suddenly, Li Chang walked in from outside the hospital again.
"Your Majesty, your Royal Highness is here!"
"clever?"
Li Xuan was stunned, "Let him in!"
"yes!"
Li Chang responded, and within a moment, Li Chengqian walked in quickly with an excited look on his face.
Seeing Li Xuan, Li Chengqian first gave a hurried salute, and then reported to Li Xuan with a happy face without waiting for Li Xuan to ask.
