Chapter 317: Stealing incense and stealing jade

Yang Yuhuan went out of the palace like a wild horse on the loose, when he arrived in Nanshi, after getting off the carriage, he wandered around, looked east and west, and lingered in the market, Yang Yun couldn't keep up with her rhythm for a while.

Yang Yun could only leave the carriage and follow Yang Yuhuan through various shops and stalls, acting as a money bag and a follower.

"Shiro, it's not that my sister complains to you, even if my sister didn't enter the palace, there are not many opportunities to come out, and even if you travel occasionally, you won't have as much fun as today for a few days."

At noon, when eating mutton steamed buns at a snack bar, Yang Yuhuan said to Yang Yun excitedly.

Yang Yun thought to himself, isn't it, you used to be just a little girl living in your uncle's house, and you can be said to have no autonomy, you basically go out to learn etiquette and Taoism, and you have to follow others when you wander around the street a few times, you must follow the rules, and you have no part in watching others buy things.

Now you can go wherever you want when you come out, buy whatever you want, do whatever you want, don't be too cool.

"It's a pity that there are only a few days left in this beautiful spring and March." Yang Yun said casually, his tone slightly melancholy.

Yang Yuhuan glanced at Yang Yun and said, "Why do I listen to you like a woman who hurts spring?" At a young age, there is no vitality at all...... By the way, Chunfeng Lane is very famous, how about you take me for a walk in the afternoon? ”

Yang Yuhuan was wild, he didn't remember anything about cultivation, and he didn't care that he was a concubine, he just wanted to have fun.

Yang Yun roughly told Yang Yuhuan about the situation in Chunfeng Lane, Yang Yuhuan glanced at him again, and said, "Do you still need to remind him?" Thought my sister didn't know that it was Flower Street Willow Lane? But it's the most prosperous and lively place in the whole of Beijing, and it's also the most unforgettable, isn't it? ”

"Also, I heard that the best dancer in the Tang Dynasty, Gongsun Auntie, also lives in Chunfeng Lane when she comes to Luoyang, and many literati and artists will visit her...... They can go, why can't I? ”

There is nothing wrong with this, anyway, Yang Yuhuan is dressed in men's clothes, and he went to Chunfeng Lane to take a walk and have a look, and it doesn't seem to matter.

The literati and writers went to find recreation, Yang Yuhuan went just to join in the fun and increase her knowledge, could it be said that she was looking for a little white face?

How ridiculous!

How high Yang Yuhuan's vision is, Yang Yun has seen it, Yang Yuhuan has never put the love of children in his heart, just like Li Mao, a personable prince who has always been in love with her, she left it behind in a blink of an eye.

"Okay, but I'll make it clear to my sister that this Spring Breeze Lane will be lively when you go at night, and it will be a lot less colorful if you go in the afternoon." Yang Yun introduced.

"It's okay, my sister just went to take a look, and we just withdrew when business was booming in the evening...... Eat quickly, don't delay the hour. Yang Yuhuan thought in his heart to go to Chunfeng Lane to join in the fun, and urged urgently.

Yang Yun snorted and drank the mutton soup, and then went on the road with Yang Yuhuan.

……

……

Imperial Palace Inner Garden.

Li Longji had been in retreat for several days, and on this day he left the customs ahead of schedule, because Gao Lishi urged him many times that the matter of sending troops to the Turks must be decided by him.

Moreover, in the past few days, I have a pure heart and few desires, eat coarse tea and light rice, live in a bamboo strip mat, and refer to the "Tao Te Ching" when I wake up. After so many years of drunken life, Li Longji couldn't adapt to it for a while, so he simply went out of the customs early to satisfy his appetite first.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Linggong meant to be cautious about this dispatch of troops, saying that the grassland has not been peaceful recently, so it is better to take advantage of the civil strife among the tribes on the grassland, bribe them with money, sow discord, and reap the profits of fishermen......"

Colliers relayed the backlog of recitals to Li Longji one by one, and he made the decisions and priorities, and Li Longji did not suspect him in the slightest of fraud, and he didn't even bother to verify them afterwards.

This is also the fundamental reason why Colliers can call for wind and rain in the court.

In the Xuanzong Dynasty, Gao Lishi's power has never been restricted, even Li Linfu can't shake Gao Lishi's status, and Gao Lishi's loyalty to Li Longji is not comparable to ordinary courtiers.

Li Longji looked a little depressed, waved his hand and said, "Lux, what do you mean?" ”

When Gao Lishi was asked about his opinion, his expression became much more cautious, he thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, now that there is civil strife in the grassland, it is a good time to send troops...... When I think of Taizong Gaozu, there are many famous generals, and the grassland is at my disposal to gallop the soldiers, and the history will be remembered, and I will come here to Your Majesty...... The meritorious service of governing the country is definitely much stronger than that of Taizong Gaozu, but it is ...... in deterring the four yi It seems to be a little lacking. ”

These words simply went to Li Longji's heart.

Li Longji thought for a while, nodded and said, "However, if there is a deviation in the dispatch of troops, wouldn't I be smiling and generous?" ”

Gao Lishi said with a smile: "This time Zhang Shouqi proposed to send troops, fully prepared, thinking that he is such a veteran, can attack and defend well, and when he was the governor of Guazhou, he repeatedly defeated Tubo, not to mention, just said that after moving to Youzhou, several sorties of Khitan, Turkic and other tribes have not deviated, and his achievements are enough to remember the annals of history, doesn't he want to go further and leave a name for eternity?" Now that the grassland is scattered, it is completely impossible to resist my Datang Iron Horse, and I will not take advantage of his illness to kill him, otherwise I will be sorry for the prosperity of Datang today. ”

"Hmm."

When Li Longji heard this, he nodded with satisfaction, which was very much in line with his expectations for the war.

Gao Lishi asked: "Then Your Majesty, this war ...... Approve this? ”

"Okay."

Li Longji nodded.

Gao Lishi asked for instructions again and said: "Then tell Zhang Shouqi that he can expand the war and choose the time to send troops by himself...... You don't have to be cautious, right? ”

Li Longji frowned and asked, "What you mean by being cautious is Zhang Linggong?" He didn't want to fight, or was it ...... Putting it away? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Colliers did not hesitate to respond.

Li Longji thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "Since I have decided to send troops, I will really damage the prestige of my Tang Dynasty, it is better to fulfill the wishes of the frontier soldiers, let them go deep into the grassland, and obtain merits, but there must be a word in advance, if it is not good to send troops, I will hold the relevant people responsible!" ”

"Yes, yes."

Colliers' face immediately became restrained, and he wondered how to operate it in order to prevent the fire from burning on him.

In order to prevent the worst situation, the best way is not to touch the two, but he is the main battle faction, and the main battle faction will not please at any time.

After talking about sending troops, Li Longji asked: "In the past few days, how is the situation in the Xuannu Temple?" I want to meet the Xuannu...... No problem, right? ”

"Huh!?"

Gao Lishi hesitated and said, "This ...... It's not convenient, Your Majesty...... Xuannu Niangniang lives in a simple place, never goes out of Xuannu to see a step, usually sends people to deliver things, and it is difficult to see Xuannu herself. ”

Li Longji said: "But I still want to meet her...... Thinking about it day and night, I'd better go and see......"

Li Longji came out of retreat, perhaps because he was suffocated, completely ignoring the warning given to him by the Nine Heavens Xuannu before, and insisted on going to see Yang Yuhuan, but he didn't know that Yang Yuhuan was not in the Xuannu Temple at this time.

……

……

Li Longji took Gao Lishi and secretly came out of the Zhenguan Hall and went straight to the Xuannu Temple.

Li Longji didn't want to cause a commotion in the palace, and he didn't even notify the harem of the news of his exit, so as to prevent the concubines from coming to pester him, especially Concubine Wu Hui, who wanted to leave a little personal space for himself.

When he arrived outside the Xuannu Temple, Li Longji took a look, and there was only Gao Lishi beside him, and asked in a low voice, "The Xuannu is inside, right?" ”

Colliers replied with a smile: "She is not here, where can she be?" ”

"Yes, the fairy has returned to heaven, but her incarnation will definitely remain in the world, you go with me...... Don't alarm her......" Li Longji seemed to be a prodigal son who came to steal incense and steal jade, walked and tiptoed, and when he arrived outside the wall of the Xuannu Temple, he deliberately avoided the sight of the female official, and slipped into the Xuannu Temple through the side door.

When he got inside, Li Longji patted his chest and said with a sigh of relief: "It's really not easy, Xuannu shouldn't know that I'm here, right?" ”

Gao Lishi leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, if it is known to the immortals...... What should I do? ”

Li Longji said: "I followed the instructions of the Xuannu and practiced in retreat for many days, and now my understanding of the Dao has gone further, how can I be blamed for coming to seek advice now?" ”

When Gao Lishi heard this, he pondered it a little, but he didn't think it made much sense, it was more like he was arguing, there are gods in his head, how can people hide from the gods? But after all, this was from the emperor's mouth, and he could only nod his head in agreement.

The two continued to walk inside, and soon arrived at the middle hall of the Xuannu Temple, which was the first time Li Longji had come here.

Entering the hall and seeing the huge statue of Xuannu, Li Longji looked up, suddenly became proud, looked around, but could not find Yang Yuhuan's person.

"This ......"

Li Longji looked at Gao Lishi, hoping that Gao Lishi could give a reasonable explanation.

Gao Lishi was also puzzled, and hurriedly helped Li Longji find someone, and the master and servant even went to find Yang Yuhuan's room, but still found no trace, which alarmed the female officer on duty outside at this time.

"Bastard! How could the Xuannu not see? How do you do things? Li Longji was furious after getting the gift of Colliers and the Xuannu was never seen.

The first time I went to the Xuannu Temple, I came secretly, but I didn't see the Xuannu, isn't this like child's play?

Gao Lishi was puzzled: "Xuannu Niangniang instructed that the Taoist girl was not allowed to approach, saying that she wanted to meditate...... If it weren't for His Majesty coming, they wouldn't have known about it, but it would be impossible for Xuannu Niangniang to return to the fairy world......"

Gao Lishi was very anxious, although this matter had nothing to do with him, but the problem was that he accompanied the emperor to come, and it was strange that Li Longji was not angry with him.

"Your Majesty, do you want to send someone to invite Luo Tianshi...... And Li Xilang is coming? "Colliers didn't want to take responsibility, so all he thought of was to send someone to find him.

Li Longji was very angry, looked up at the statue of Xuannu, suddenly had an epiphany, and sighed: "I came here to break the agreement with Xuannu, and it was my fault first...... I should leave this sacred place first. ”

"Your Majesty, you ......"

When Gao Lishi heard this, he didn't feel good in his heart.

The emperor is not wrong at all, why admit his mistake?

Li Longji said again: "I will leave now, but I still have to find the Xuannu, she is not only the embodiment of the Xuannu Niangniang in the world, but also my concubine, my dearest relative, how can I let my relatives disappear?" Lux, this matter will be handed over to you, and you must not make it public. ”

Gao Lishi wanted to shirk responsibility, but when he heard the emperor's words, even if he knew that he would take a big risk if he couldn't find someone, he had to accept the order.

This is the emperor's trust in him, acting in secret, not publicly, the emperor only tells him one ......

"Your Majesty relax, the old minister is ten thousand deaths, and he will definitely find the Xuannu Niangniang, so that the Niangniang will not be in any danger." Colliers almost sobbed.
