Chapter 38: The Burning River

Seeing Qinghe's simple appearance, Li Chengqian shook his head helplessly.

My wife, why did she give yourself such a living treasure?

After chewing the verses carefully, Qing Ci smiled and said: "Your Highness is saying that the water color of the Jialing River is like the feeling of stone dai jasper intertwined. The sunset breaks through the waves and comes from the other side of the sea of sand. ”

At this time, she paused and said, "But Your Highness, the place we are going to is Anzhou, not Bashu, how can there be a Ba Tong, it should be Chu Tong or Jing Tong." ”

Hearing this, Li Chengqian also reacted, and he forgot to revise the poem he memorized.

Li Chengqian smiled dryly: "Since you know, just help me change it, why bother to say it." ”

Qing Ci pursed his lips, and glanced at Li Chengqian with a resentful look in his eyes.

When he arrived in Anzhou, Li Chengqian bid farewell to Gao Shilian.

"Uncle, since I am here, I won't send it to Qian'er."

Li Chengqian's few words almost brought Gao Shilian's tears out.

Gao Shilian wiped the corners of his eyes and said: "Thank you Your Highness for sending you, and the old minister will definitely remember His Highness's kindness, if there is a place where the old minister needs to contribute in the future, the old minister will never give up." ”

"What is not dead, unlucky."

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "You are here, you just need to take care of your health, and when the time comes to return to Beijing to report on work, Qian'er will invite you to dinner." ”

As soon as he heard this, Gao Shilian was full of emotion.

said that he was his uncle, but in fact, in order to avoid suspicion, Gao Shilian didn't see Li Chengqian much.

It was Gao Shilian who recently became Li Chengqian's teacher that allowed the two to get to know each other.

But the more he got to know Li Chengqian, the more Gao Shilian felt that he was not on the wrong team.

Among Li Shimin's princes, Gao Shilian dared to pat his chest and say that no one could compare to Li Chengqian.

And he also secretly determined that when he returned to Chang'an one day, he must spare no effort to push Li Chengqian to the throne.

But Li Chengqian didn't know what Gao Shilian was thinking.

After bidding farewell to Gao Shilian, Li Chengqian's team traveled all the way south to the Han River ferry.

Because Li Shimin's fast horse was reporting ahead, there was already a big boat waiting at the ferry.

No matter how excited Li Chengqian is to go to Jiangnan, he is still an eight-year-old child after all.

After traveling thousands of miles, I was already too tired to do it, and after getting on the boat, I got seasick again, and vomited and diarrhea for half a day.

Li Tingxue saw his appearance, and joked on the side: "With your virtue, you dare to come to Jiangnan by yourself?" If it weren't for my sister to accompany you, I'm afraid your body would have to fall apart. ”

For her schadenfreude, Li Chengqian was powerless.

Moreover, he didn't dare to have a seizure, after all, it was true that he couldn't beat her.

However, the boat was much more stable than the car, and after Li Tingxue poured him a bowl of soothing soup, he fell asleep.

In the next few days, the waves were flat and the sails were blown by the west wind, and the speed of the ship was very fast.

Hou Junji came in and reported: "Your Highness, with this great limelight, you will be able to reach Jiangnan in two or three days." ”

"It's finally here."

Li Chengqian gently stroked his pale little face.

Seeing the appearance of the master, Hou Junji wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

But at the same time, I also admire that my little master can endure this hardship.

If he were to be the boy of his own family, he would not want to suffer such a tiring journey even if he was killed.

Li Chengqian still doesn't know the butterfly effect caused by his trip to Jiangnan this time.

In the future, the Tang Dynasty nobles almost all took Li Shimin's teaching of Li Chengqian as an example, not only taught Wentao martial arts strategy from an early age, but also let him go out on foot alone after completing his studies.

I don't know how many sons and daughters who were kicked out of their homes secretly scolded Li Chengqian's ancestors.

If it weren't for this guy, would he have to suffer this sin?

But that's all for later.

Li Chengqian looked out through the window: "Do you still want to rest in the water tonight?" ”

"Huh?"

Hou Junji was stunned for a moment.

immediately reacted and said, "It shouldn't be necessary today, there is a small ferry not far ahead, and we can go ashore today." ”

"Really?"

Li Chengqian was quite happy about this.

He finally knew what it was like to be seasick.

It's much more exciting than motion sickness, which is at most dizzy for a long time, and seasickness is dizzy all the time.

No wonder Cao Cao used iron cables to connect boats when he attacked Sun Wu.

The northerners really didn't have the life of a boat.

In the evening, the boat docked at the ferry to rest.

Li Chengqian asked Hou Junji to call someone to go to the river and fetch some fresh river fresh.

Zhao Shi went into battle to cook, and Li Chengqian commanded on the side.

What boiled shrimp, live shrimp in white wine, salt and pepper fish fillet, red stewed grass carp, and a big pot of fish hot pot with it.

These things, where have Hou Junji and the others seen them?

At this moment, I just feel the fragrance.

Hou Junji came up and asked, "Your Highness, why is this so fragrant......

"Incense?"

"I'll eat more after a while."

Li Chengqian responded casually, his face full of pride.

How can you understand the delicacies of the afterlife?

Who knows, Li Chengqian's casual response was taken seriously by Hou Junji.

When eating, it's like having a grudge against fish and shrimp, gobbling it up as if it's not eating in eight lifetimes.

Li Chengqian and Li Tingxue on the side were dumbfounded.

Hou Junji took a large piece of fish from the pot and stuffed it into his mouth: "Fragrant, really fragrant......"

"Ahem......"

"It's so fragrant, you have to leave some for His Highness."

Li Chengqian didn't care about the chopsticks.

If not, wouldn't they all have to be eaten up by this guy?

Li Tingxue on the side didn't care.

The way she looks when she eats really doesn't match her reputation.

Who would have thought that such a woman who could command the slaves and evil servants to beat people everywhere would be so gentle when eating.

And she can also hold Li Chengqian from time to time and help him wipe his mouth and hands with a handkerchief.

The bright moon is in the sky, and the bright moon is the head.

The ship dropped anchor and anchored in the middle of the river.

Li Chengqian leaned on Li Tingxue, and his feet were swinging for a while.

Li Tingxue laughed softly: "What's the matter, homesick?" ”

"Hmmm......"

Li Chengqian nodded.

He did miss home, but he didn't think about Chang'an City, but about the home of future generations.

Li Tingxue raised her hand and stroked Li Chengqian's head: "There will be times when I feel homesick in the future, but now I am where to go." ”

Li Chengqian glanced at Li Tingxue.

The person closest to him in this world, the best person for him, is the sister in front of him.

This was something he had never experienced in later generations.

The unique relationship between sisters and brothers made Li Chengqian very greedy.

"Sister......

Li Chengqian rarely took the initiative to hug Li Tingxue: "Promise me, don't marry far away in the future......"

His appearance is really distressing.

Especially hearing the child's unique soft and glutinous voice, Li Tingxue felt that her heart melted.

"Okay, sister promises you......"

Li Tingxue hugged Li Chengqian: "Okay, it's too late, it's time for you to sleep, sister will send you back." ”

Li Tingxue carried Li Chengqian back to the cabin, put him on the boat, helped him take off his shoes and socks, and carefully covered him with a quilt.

Just when Li Tingxue was about to say a few words, a loud 'bang' suddenly came from not far away.

Immediately afterward, the river not far away burst into flames.

"You stay here, don't go out."

Li Tingxue told Li Chengqian, and then stepped out of the cabin.

Coming to the deck, Li Tingxue grabbed a soldier of the Qianzi battalion who ran by: "What's going on over there?" ”
