Great Tang Broom Star: Chapter 888 Prince travel

  Chapter 888 The prince travels

   Chang'an in autumn is very cool.

  In Daodefang, the dogs gathered together again, looking at the gate of Jia's house with melancholy eyes.

  There is their deadly enemy, Ah Fu.

  Since Ah Fu started wandering alone in Daodefang, the two sides have waged many wars for supremacy...but every time they were beaten by Ah Fu.

  A dog walked towards the gate of Jia's house.

  It held its head high and held its chest high, extraordinarily confident.

  Boom!

  The door slammed, then bounced back.

  The door opened.

  A black and white head with slightly brown fur sticks out.

  The dogs became smarter and smarter, and they even learned to ambush.

  Ah Fu looked left and right, the dog whimpered, turned around and ran away.

  Ah Fu came out lazily, and with a cheer behind him, a girl rushed out.

  The girl is wearing light yellow clothes, her hair is tied with a few bags, she looks picturesque, but her eyes are sly.

   "Brother!"

"coming!"

  Jia Yu came out, Ah Fu turned around and hummed impatiently.

  The six-year-old Doudou clapped his hands happily, "Ah Niang said that Aye will be back soon, brother, how about we go to meet Aye?"

   "Not good." Jia Yu said with a straight face, "You just want to play, but Aye is still on the way! Where shall we pick him up?"

   Doudou pouted and lowered his head, "I can ask Chen Dong and the others to protect me."

   "Don't even think about it!"

  Jia Yu felt a little headache for this younger sister, "Da Hong and Dongdong's daily tossing is a headache, so don't disturb it."

   "Where did I get mixed up?"

  Doudou raised his head, and said dissatisfiedly: "Yesterday you secretly played with Aye's fishing gear, and I didn't say anything about breaking that box..."

  Jia Yu smiled immediately, "It's so good, be good, I'll get you some delicious food later."

   Doudou mused with his hands behind his back, "I want... A Niang said that she wants to eat the meat roasted in the Forbidden Garden the most, so I want to barbecue."

   "咱咕咱!"

  The group of dogs were provoking, Ah Fu couldn't bear it anymore, and rushed over with a greeting.

  The Great War has begun.

  Several riders came from the side of the square gate. Seeing a group of dogs fighting and retreating, barking constantly, they laughed and said, "What caused the group of dogs to boil?"

  Li Hong on horseback looked hard, "It's Ah Fu."

   Ah Fu roared, chasing and killing the group of dogs with ease.

  The two children behind were cheering for Ah Fu.

   "It's the child of Duke Jia's family. That girl is cute, and the boy is protecting his sister. Well, he is responsible."

   It was Zeng Xianglin who spoke.

   Li Hong dismounted, and Zeng Xianglin hurried over to protect him, but Li Hong was quite athletic, so he got off without using him.

   "Jia Yu!"

  Li Hong waved, "Doudou!"

   "It's the prince!"

   Jia Yu smiled.

  DouDou pursed his lips, "I don't want to enter the palace, brother!"

"knew."

  Jia's brothers and sisters don't like the palace, they always feel uncomfortable.

  But the prince is okay, so the three of them fit well.

  The three of them gathered together, and said triumphantly: "Iron beasts are not allowed in the palace, prince, do you envy Ah Fu?"

   Li Hong sighed, and Doudou became more and more proud.

   Jia Yu frowned, knowing that the prince was deliberately teasing him.

   "The news just came that Duke Jia wiped out the rebels in Shule in one fell swoop, and even wiped out a group of Tubo people..."

  Zou Shucai is about to enter the palace, and Li Hong is currently watching politics, and happened to be out of the palace on business, so he stopped by Jia's house when he got the news.

  As he grew up, the empress also tacitly allowed him to leave the palace from time to time.

   "I'll tell Auntie!"

  DouDou turned around and ran away.

   "Aye is going home!"

  The Jia family immediately boiled.

  Jia Yu said with a bitter face: "Sister She is like this... My father said it is lively and cute, and I think so too."

  Li Hong smiled and said, "Du Dou Shu is so cute, and A Niang likes her too."

  The two pretended to be adults and strolled around, with more than ten guards behind them.

   "How soon will Ayer be back?"

   "Probably soon."

  Li Hong also asked, but the Queen's answer was this.

   "You..." Jia Yu wanted to greet him, but found that he couldn't greet the prince.

   "How are you?" Li Hong had no scruples.

   "I'm fine." Jia Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "How about you?"

   "There has been some commotion in the palace recently. Aye can't eat those fat foods now, but someone forgot and made a big plate. Auntie was furious..."

  Li Hong couldn't help laughing.

   "How about your two elder brothers?" Jia Yu had a headache, "My two younger brothers are constantly arguing all day long, and I don't know how Auntie and the others can bear it."

   "Yes! My younger brother is the same, but he is the younger one. Liu Lang is very sensible and well-behaved now." Thinking of Li Xian's sensibleness, Li Hong couldn't help but smile in relief.

  DouDou suddenly waved outside the gate, "Come on, there's something delicious!"

  The solitary is like a person who comes to eat and drink...

  Ahem!

  Li Hong stepped slowly, but the direction was corrected to the direction of the gate.

  Jia Yu thought of it, "Aniang asked us to come out to play for half an hour before, and asked Cao Er to make caramel candies. The caramel candies are hawthorn wrapped in caramel... sour and sweet, and Aye is called candied haws..."

  Li Hong couldn't help salivating over it.

   After eating a meal of candied haws, all three children exclaimed that it was delicious.

  Even the prince said that my craftsmanship is good...Cao Er was very proud, "You can't eat too much of this thing. Mr. Lang said when he was at home, this candied haws will be appetizing if you eat less, and it will hurt your stomach if you eat too much."

  In the inner courtyard, Wei Wushuang is listening to the report of Wang Yuerong, the steward of the children of the village outside the city.

  Wang Yuerong can no longer see the original arrogance now, and the whole person looks like a deep well, peaceful and leisurely.

   "...The people from the Li family on the opposite side don't dare to provoke now, and the farmers in the village are considered honest, but there are disputes from time to time..."

Wei Wushuang nodded, with more appreciation in his eyes, "My husband originally asked you to take care of Zhuangzi outside the city, and I said that no woman would do such a thing, but what you have done in the past few years is very impressive. I am satisfied. By the way, have you ever thought about getting married? If you want to, the family will make decisions for you, and a matchmaker will be invited to match you."

Wang Yuerong smiled and said, "Thank you Madam for your kindness. I used to feel tormented and lonely when I first arrived at Zhuangzi, but I gradually calmed down. I inspected the fields every day, and then went door to door in the village... Go back to your place and cook..."

"Those fields that I looked at with disgust in the past are now landscapes in my eyes; those farmers that I looked at with disdain at the beginning are now the most kind neighbors. In such places... I feel that I am in a paradise .”

   This is a polite refusal.

  Wei Wushuang smiled and said: "It's not urgent. You should think about it. Naturally, your family won't force you. You can just do things on Zhuangzi... Your husband said that Jia's family is your home, so you don't need to worry about it for the rest of your life."

   "Thank you ma'am."

  Wang Yuerong stood up and resigned.

  Yun Zhang who was standing by the side sent her out.

   "Madam is kind."

  Yunzhang strolled through the courtyard and said softly: "Mr. Lang once said that you helped him back then, so the Jia family did not regard you as a person in charge, but as a friend."

   "Friends?"

  Wang Yuerong was in a daze for a moment.

"yes."

   Arriving in the front yard, the prince and Jia Yu Doudou were listening to Cao Er brag about his pride in cooking.

   That is his child.

  Wang Yuerong watched carefully.

  Jia Yu tried his best to pretend to be an adult, but he was carefree when he went around. Look at this child, resting his chin on his hands, listening with a smile on his mouth.

   Others teach children to always be prudent and virtuous first, which is also the exemplary role brought by Queen Wende back then. The rich and powerful wanted to marry their daughters to good people, so they were taught to be like ladies from an early age.

   But Doudou is different.

  He was always so different.

  Wang Yuerong walked out of the gate, turned around and said, "Thank you very much."

  Yun Zhang Fushen, "Walk slowly all the way."

  Yunzhang watched her go away, thinking about Wang Yuerong on the way back.

  She came to Jia's house relatively late, but after she was appointed as the steward of the backyard, she studied these things of Jia's house very much.

   It is said that Wang Yuerong had some friendship with Lang Jun back then... Wang Yuerong was quite pretty, and now he has a special charm. When that silly girl Hongyan whispered to her, she had guessed the story that Lang Jun and Wang Yuerong had to tell.

   But Yunzhang felt that it might not be so.

   When we arrived at Wei Wushuang's place, Su Ho also came.

  Wei Wushuang asked: "You have been in the palace for many years, and you have experience in seeing people and things. How about you tell Wang Yuerong?"

  This problem can be big or small, deep or shallow...

  Yunzhang said: "I understand that Wang Yuerong was a little arrogant at first, which means that she comes from a good background, at least not from an ordinary family..."

  Wei Wushuang nodded, but did not mention Wang Yuerong's specific background.

   That's a taboo!

   Yunzhang keenly noticed something wrong with the atmosphere, so he changed the angle, "This female slave feels like a pool of water, not stagnant water, but has found her own way of living."

   Wei Wushuang said in admiration, "Your vision is not bad, no wonder my husband let you take care of the affairs of the backyard."

  Yunzhang smiled and said: "Madam is too good."

  She resigned later, and a maid who was also from the palace leaned on the tree trunk, blessed her when she came, and asked, "Yunzhang, do you regret coming to Jia's house?"

   "Why do you regret it?" Yun Zhang looked at her calmly, "A person's life is either long or short, and one has to live something for oneself.

  Some people like to struggle in the palace, dreaming that one day they can fly to the branches, and even go further...But people have to be content. Many times the more you desire something, the more it will go away from you. It's not yours, no matter how you ask for it, it won't help. "

  She smiled and said: "Remember, be happy with the situation. Besides, what's wrong with the Jia family?

In the deep palace, you can only look at the sky above your head. After you finish your work in Jia’s house, you can go to Daodefang, laughing and chatting in twos and threes. After a while, Madam will let us play in the city... Is it possible to be so carefree in the palace? "

  The maid was thoughtful, but somewhat resentful.

"Hey! Don't think about things you shouldn't think about." Yunzhang saw too much of this kind of girl whose heart is higher than the sky but whose life is thinner than paper, and said earnestly: "Don't think about being grand, we don't have that kind of life. It is good to serve you here, when the age is up, the husband and wife will naturally marry you...

   Don't underestimate the guards in the front yard. Although they are all disabled, they are the most important group of people in the Jia family. "

  The maid thought for a long time, "Yes."

  Yunzhang felt very happy... In the palace, she also led more than ten maids to do things, and she was considered a small female official. Although she was majestic at that time, she was quite disgusted by the intrigue all day long.

  After arriving at Jia's house, they also brought more than a dozen maids to do things, but the things were very simple, and there was no need to worry about fighting.

  Looking at the blue sky and white clouds, Yunzhang chuckled and said, "I have never lived so easily, and now I am really happy."

  Running in as if flying around, saw Yun Zhang and shouted: "Yun Zhang, where is my painting?"

  Yun Zhang said with a smile: "Here! The little lady's painting was only half finished and she ran away..."

   I was in a hurry, "Aye is coming back, I have to finish the painting and give it to him quickly, otherwise Aye will definitely say that I am a black heart."

  Yunzhang smiled, "Okay, I will find that painting."

  As long as you can control your desires, life is so calm and breezy... It makes people feel very comfortable.

  …

  But Li Hong obviously can't be calm.

  As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he has already broken away from pure study and study, and he also goes to observe politics from time to time.

  The so-called watching politics is to watch the monarch and his ministers discuss affairs, but the most common thing is to watch them discuss state affairs by the side of the emperor and empress.

   This is precept and example.

  After leaving Jia's house, Li Hong has another task today, which is to go to Longji Temple to offer incense.

  A Niang is pregnant again, and Li Hong is looking forward to a younger sister this time, preferably a younger sister who is as cute as a bag. The purpose of his going out of the palace today is to go to Longji Temple to offer incense and pray for his mother and that 'sister'.

  Longji Temple was outside the city, and the accompanying guards immediately increased to more than 50 people, and people from Baiqi and Qianniuwei followed.

  After leaving the city, I immediately felt that my eyes were wide open, and I could see the whole sky at a glance.

   Li Hong squinted his eyes, and looked at the blue sky with sore eyes, "It really is autumn."

  The accompanying Jiang Feng and Zhang Song were muttering.

   "After all, the prince is still young, and His Majesty and Queen are willing to let him go out of the city."

"Today, the old man tried to dissuade me, but what did someone say...Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the crown prince has never been kept in a deep palace. He doesn't know the sufferings of the people, and he doesn't know the reality of the world. That's why the Tang Dynasty is now strong. In a word, If the Tang Dynasty is to be strong and prosperous, the prince must be well-informed."

   "This...you are right that you are wrong, but the princes back then were all..." Jiang Feng sighed.

  The original princes are all finished... Li Jiancheng was killed in the Xuanwumen Incident; Li Chengqian was forced to step down by several younger brothers... The first prince of the current emperor was also abolished...

  The prince of Lao Li's family is really dangerous.

  Zhang Song whispered: "These words must not be said, but... His Majesty's first prince has been abolished, it seems that this is God's will!"

Jiang Feng praised: "That's what I mean. Emperor Gaozu's first crown prince died, and then the late emperor became the crown prince. The late emperor's first crown prince was abolished, and then His Majesty became the crown prince. The former crown prince was abolished, and this ...I'm afraid it's destiny."

  In fact, in many cases, the so-called destiny that human beings fear is just a law.

  When some of the same things happened in the previous period of time, they would automatically substitute them in, treating these things as laws and inevitability, and then various mysterious sayings appeared.

   In a short time, there will be a fertile field ahead.

   "What a treasure land."

  Jiang Feng couldn't help but praise.

   "Your Highness." Zhang Song did not forget his duty, stepped forward and said: "This piece of land is fertile land..."

  Li Hong nodded and squinted, "A lot."

"yes!"

  There were many farmers in the field, Li Hong got off his horse and walked over slowly.

  A couple was busy planting seeds in the field, and the guards accompanying them shouted: "My lord, my little lord has something to ask."

  The man straightened up, thumped his waist with his backhand, glanced at Li Hong and the others, and whispered to his wife, "You are a nobleman!"

  The wife looked up, her tanned face was a little more nervous, "Is there something wrong at home?"

  The man smiled and said: "Look at what you said, even if we have something to do, is it worth dozens of people?"

"Too."

  The man came over and saluted with crossed hands, "I have seen Mr. Xiao Lang, and I have seen you nobles."

  Li Hong stood on the ridge of the field, saw the man's face was tanned and his hands were rough, so he asked, "Do you think the weather will be okay this year?"

  The man smiled and said: "It's all right! It rained a while ago, and I was worried that the seeds wouldn't be able to dry without the sun. It will clear up soon after I read it. It can be seen that Mingjun is here, and the weather can't be wrong."

  The man seemed to be talking too much, and he couldn't stop once he opened his mouth.

   Li Hong interrupted him and asked, "Is this seed going to be dried?"

"It's going to dry." The man looked at Li Hong in surprise, "This wheat seed is like a child. It usually sleeps soundly when it doesn't move. You have to dry it a few days before sowing. Wake him up and get ready to go to the ground so that it can grow."

"I see."

  Li Hong cupped his hands, "I have been taught. By the way, the fields here...are your own?"

  The man smiled and said, "How can I have such a good land near Chang'an City? This is all the land of Longji Temple! We all farm land for Longji Temple."

  Li Hong stood up, "Thank you very much, and I will leave."

  The man smiled and said, "Young Lord, you can also talk when you come back."

"good."

  Li Hong was smiling.

  But as a person close to him, Zeng Xianglin felt that something was wrong with the prince, as if he was not very happy.

  A little further past, we saw Longji Temple.

  Longji Temple covers a large area. From the outside, the houses in the temple are continuous. Several big trees are towering, with luxuriant branches and leaves.

  Believers lined up outside to enter, and some people burned incense and prayed inside outside the wall...

   Someone stepped forward to negotiate, and there was a shout immediately from the gate.

   "Go back, go back today, come back tomorrow."

  The Zhike monk was shouting.

   Someone asked: "Why can't you enter?"

  The Zhike monk proudly said: "There is a nobleman coming, you will offend the nobleman if you wait here."

Everyone was aggrieved but did not dare to comment, only one woman said dissatisfied: "Didn't you say that all beings are equal? ​​Why do you smile when the nobleman comes, and you don't take it seriously when we come... Don't we give incense money? I gave it all..."

  The old woman on the side persuaded: "The nobleman gives a lot! The nobleman will give them a lot of land, and they don't like the little money we give."

  The woman stomped her feet, "Forget it, the monks in this temple eat fat and big ears... No one cares about it."

  Everyone couldn't help smiling.

An old man said with a smile: "This monk, nun, or nun has 30 acres of land as soon as she becomes a monk. This is allocated by the government. Later, many good believers will donate money, grain and land, and even slaves, so the little money we give is nothing. ? They are very merciful if they don’t show their faces.”

  …

   Ask for a monthly pass!
