Nos. 452 and 453 Let me bow down to you one last time!
The decree said that Li Luoke would raise him for a period of time and return to Goryeo Province, but he must arrive before September.
It's only July, and he still has more than a month to go, so he is in no hurry to take up his post right away.
Pingzhang political affairs in Huguang Province, this is Li Luo's last official position in the Yuan Court, and he will not do it for long.
The day after Li Luo was appointed as Huguang Pingzhang, Cui Xiuning's letter also arrived.
Cui Xiuning asked Li Luo to go back to Goryeo, not to rush back to Haidong to see her and the child, so as not to arouse the suspicion of the Yuan court and the emperor.
After all, Li Luo hadn't been back to Goryeo for a long time, so it was a bit unreasonable. At this juncture, there is nothing wrong with being careful.
Li Luo spent a day visiting the real gold prince, and the three of them were incompatible, and Zhang Sanfeng was a farewell. He also asked someone to send a batch of jewels to Jin Guangruo in the palace.
Because of Li Luo's victory in the south, even Jin Guangruo was also stained, and now he has been named Concubine Li, and he is very favored.
In order to be grateful to Li Luo, Jin Guangruo also asked someone to send a Buddhist scripture that she personally copied, saying that she blessed Li Luo's brother to be safe and sound, and he was added to the official rank.
Li Luo was speechless when he received Jin Guangruo's gift. This woman is destined to be a tragic figure.
Once she raises an army, whether she can save her life depends on her creation.
Li Luo was about to leave Dadu, when suddenly an uninvited guest arrived.
It turned out to be Chen Yiji.
Chen Yiji resented Li Luo for deceiving and using him. But now I found that except for Li Luo, who was resented by himself, he also took care of himself, and most of the people in the whole country could not speak, and they became completely alone.
Chen Yu and others ignored him, the Yuan court looked down on him, and Kublai Khan didn't even summon him, but just gave him a holy decree and sent him to Ezhou, Huguang Province, to be the governor.
Although the general manager of Ezhou Road is a third-rank official, he still has Dalu Huachi on his head, that is, he is a second-in-command. This is a huge gap for Chen Yiji, a person who wants to be the emperor of Dayue.
Historically, Chen Yijike died in Ezhou, which happened to be Chen Youliang's birthplace. In later generations, the Annan people put gold on their faces, saying that Chen Youliang was the grandson of Chen Yiji, but an Annan person, and they insisted on writing Chen Youliang into the official history of Annan.
No, Li Luo became the Pingzhang of Huguang Province, and Ezhou was under the rule of Huguang. Chen Yiji came to see Li Luo with a shy face, hoping that Li Luo would take care of him.
"General, when I went down to Ezhou, I had no relatives and I didn't know the place well. Please take care of me, General. Chen Yiji brought a heavy gift, and pretended to be pitiful when he met.
Although Li Luo is no longer the general of Zhengnan, he is still used to being called so.
Li Luo smiled: "Don't worry about the king of Jiaozhou. The Great Khan gave you a manor of 10,000 acres of land in Ezhou, and with the prince with him, no one dared to touch you. Of course, the parish will not be left alone. ”
Li Luo was patient and comforted Chen Yiji, which can be described as a "heart-to-heart". Since Chen Yiji is the manager of Ezhou Road, maybe he still has use value, and it should not be wrong to have a better attitude towards him.
Seeing Li Luo's attitude, Chen Yiji felt a lot better. I don't think Li Luo is actually bad, at least he is not a snob.
"The king of Jiaozhou first went to Ezhou to take office. The parish will arrive in August. Li Luo said, "If someone makes it difficult for you, you can report the name of this hall." "Meaning, I follow you.
Li Luoli has the merit of destroying the country, and is recognized as a famous general, the Son of Heaven believes in the capital of Morgenbadu, the title of Duke of Yueguo, the official is the political affairs of Huguang Pingzhang, and he is a proper minister. His name is still easy to make.
The administrative office of Huguang Province is also in Ezhou, and the two are officials in the same city. Take care of Chen Yiji, but what is Li Luo's words.
After sending Chen Yiji away, Li Luo took hundreds of guards and left most of the capital and went to Haijin along the post road.
On July 12, Li Luo boarded the ship at Haijin Port. On the afternoon of July 13, he returned to Ganghwa Island.
Ganghwa Island!
Li Luo hasn't been back for a long time.
It's funny to say. Jianghua is his territory, and he is now a member of the Yuan Court, and he is hot. However, there is still an official position on his body, but he has always held both: Mani Township Duzhai, a minor official of Jiupin.
This is Li Luo's first official position, and he has been in it for several years. Although this official is very small, it is an official position that Li Luo relied on.
Since the capital village of Mani Township has always been Li Luo, even if he left Jianghua earlier, in the hearts of the people of Mani Township, Li Xiangjun has always been their capital village.
As soon as Li Luo landed ashore, he found that his people immediately ran to tell each other, which soon caused a sensation among the people.
"The townsman is back, Smecta! The townsman is back, Smecta! ”
"Hurry up and greet Smecta!"
Before Li Luo returned to Lijiawu Fort, the carriages and horses were surrounded by a large crowd of people. The people all bowed down excitedly, and many people also took out rice wine, melons and fruits from their homes and went to Li Luo's car to pay respects.
Since Li Luo became the capital village, the life of the people here has become better. Especially after Jianghua Island became Li Luo's territory, the people had no government and clan exploitation, and their lives were better.
Therefore, seeing Li Luo come back, the people were really happy.
"The townsman became a high-ranking official and was crowned a public candidate, but he still remembers us, Smecta!"
"Xiangjun, do you remember the villain? The Min family's... The townsman has rewarded the villain's white rice..."
Li Luo looked at these people and was very emotional. The people of the farming nation are still very simple. As long as the ruler exercises some benevolence, they can be grateful.
got rid of the enthusiastic people, Li Luo met another acquaintance: the shopkeeper Song.
Li Luo smiled dumbly. This shopkeeper Song, when he first came, was still writing couplets in his store and exchanged it for a penny. It's a little favor for myself.
"The villain greets the lord!" The Song shopkeeper was different from those people, and he knew that he should call the lord the lord.
"Shopkeeper Song, get up." Li Luo said as he asked the guards to reward the Song shopkeeper with a hundred bills, and continued to move forward without stopping.
"Thank you, lord!" Shopkeeper Song bowed down again, looking at Yan Falcon and Yan Tong and others beside Li Luo, both envious and regretful.
He knew both Yan Falcon and Yan Tong, who were originally Jurchen refugees in the village, and they couldn't eat enough. But now, all of them are extremely energetic, and they are very promising at a glance.
Followed the right person!
Back then, I also had a chance. But I don't dare to bet, and it's hard to give up my money. If he had been sent in the snow at that time, he would have been able to soar.
What a regret.
Li Luo returned to Lijiawu Fort, and the chief housekeeper Zhen Liangxiu came out with tears in his eyes, looking overjoyed.
"Shaolangjun..."Zhen Liangxiu bowed down, "The slave has been looking forward to it for a long time, and I finally look forward to returning to Shaolangjun!" The slave is worried every day, but today I am finally relieved! ”
The tone was sincere and loving, with a hint of reproach.
Although she is a slave, her feelings for Li Luo are not as simple as a slave. Li Luo didn't return to Jianghua for a long time, and there was no news to send back, which made her very worried.
"Aunt Zhen is worried." Li Luo said with a smile, looking at Zhen Liangxiu, who seemed to be a bit of a mother's shadow, a trace of warmth rose in his heart.
Zhen Liangxiu was very happy, and ordered the servants to prepare dinner, and even cooked for Li Luo himself.
Yan Duo and the other guards looked at the playground where they had been trained before, but now it was empty, and they were all very impressed.
"At that time, the playground was really lively, and everyone was training here all day. Madame teaches the queue, and my dad teaches archery. Yan Falcon said with a little reminiscence.
Liu Dadao also said: "Who said it wasn't!" I remember when I first came, my wife trained the queue and said that whoever stands up straight and walks well will add a piece of meat to the lunch meal! Today, the playground is still there, and the brothers are no longer here. "His eyes are also a little red.
Yan Tong said: "We have been a personal guard for Lord Lang for a few years, but unfortunately we can't be a guard for a few days." ”
The crowd was silent. They all already knew that they, the officers of the personal guard, would soon be assigned to the firearms brigade as the commander of the wing, the deputy of the regiment, and the commander of the regiment. Yan Falcon and several other captains of the personal guards started as the head of the regiment and hung the rank of Sima.
Li Luo has been teaching them firearms combat and command, and when it comes to the understanding of firearms combat, they are no strangers to it.
They were succeeded by the chief of the pro-guard forces.
Li Luo entered the dock fort and came to his and Cui Xiuning's room. Although there has been no owner for a long time, the inside is still spotless, and it is obvious that Zhen Liangxiu is cleaning it every day.
On the dresser in the room, Cui Xiuning seemed to be seen in a trance.
Li Luo sat silently in front of the dresser for a while, then left the dock fort and came to the small courtyard where he once lived.
This small courtyard was already very dilapidated, and now it is even more dilapidated.
However, there was no grass in the yard. It turned out that the surrounding people knew that this was the place where the townsman once lived, so they came to clear the weeds from time to time. So although it is dilapidated, it is not too desolate.
Yan Ying and the others did not enter the courtyard, but just stood at the door.
Li Luo entered the wing room alone and saw the fire pit at a glance.
He seemed to see a sudden heavy snow outside, the fire pond was burning red, a simple clay pot was hanging on it, a woman in a shabby coat was dividing wheat, and a fox with a dragging belly squatting next to her...
Li Luo sat down on the edge of the kang, and the familiar voice sounded in his ears.
"Fugitive, you're running out of firewood..."
"You're a man, eat more."
"The fox is pregnant, it's pitiful."
"You go to sleep on the kang, this wooden stick is the Chu River Han Realm, we are handsome people, we can't cross the river."
Li Luo thought about this, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten.
He sat for a while, patted the lonely kang, and said to himself: "Don't forget your original intention, never lose each other." Don't forget the original intention, never lose. ”
………………
After staying in Jianghua for a day, Li Luo crossed the Jianghua Strait and headed for Inju.
On July 16, Li Luo finally came to the Li family city again.
Seeing Li Luo returning home to the city, the retainers guarding the city immediately bowed and saluted, called Wulangjun, and invited Li Luo in immediately, without any notice at all.
As soon as they came to the door of the inner house, Li Huizhi, Li Zhiyi and others came out together, and everyone was smiling.
"Fifth brother!"
"Fifth brother!"
"Oh, fifth brother, why did you come back! Adults are waiting for you! Didn't you become a famous general and a prince, and then you won't recognize us! ”
That enthusiasm is really unbearable.
In the past two years, Li Luo has been on the Eastern Expedition and the Southern Expedition, connecting with great victories and rising step by step. At a young age, he was in a high position and became a hot minister of the Yuan court, not only earning face for the Li family of Inzhou, but also for Goryeo.
They heard that the Jin Guangruo of the Jin family was also crowned a concubine because of this.
This is the first of its kind.
The head of the family, Li Sign, was promoted from the county prince to the national prince in advance, and the Li family also became the head of the top family in Goryeo.
The deeds of this cousin made them both envious and jealous, and their feelings were extremely complicated.
Li Luo was surrounded by all the "brothers and sisters" and came to Xiao Sitang, where Li Qian lived, and sure enough, he saw Li Qi waiting in the flower hall with a smile.
It is said that Li Qian should be in the royal court of Kaijing, but every summer, he will return to his home city in Renzhou to escape the summer, and this time of course he is also at home.
But his eldest son, Li Ruoyu, who had been promoted to the judgment of Bing Cao, did not return. Otherwise, when Li Ruoyu saw Li Luo, he didn't know how he would be envious, jealous and hateful.
"Nephew, meet your lord! The adult demeanor is the same as before, and the nephew is very pleased! Li Luo had to bow down.
Li Luo is still very grateful to Li Sign. It can be said that without the help of Li Qian and the Li family, he would definitely not have the power he has now, nor the strength he has now.
It is no exaggeration to say that Li signed that he was a nobleman.
Anyway, I can't worship twice, so let's take it as my own reward.
"Get up!" Li Qian smiled a little excitedly, "Idiot, even if you are diligent in the king's affairs, you can't go back for years!" Although your father is gone, but the old man is still here, how can you do this! ”
Li Qian blamed him lightly, but he could see that he was really happy.
"What the adults said was my nephew's fault. This time, I came back to visit you. Li Luo said.
Li Qian asked Li Luo to sit down and asked, "I heard that Annan has been peaceful, and you have made a contribution to destroying the country, how can the emperor reward you?" ”
Li Luo said with a smile: "I was promoted to the Duke of Yue, and I was named a county marquis." ”
Li Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and said with great relief: "Okay, good! My Li family has another national duke! What a blessing for you! Your dead father will be glad when he knows it. When I heard your news, not to mention the old man, even the king is very happy. ”
He was really happy. The nephew is so competitive, of course he is honored to be an uncle. Moreover, in the past few years, the bone china offered by Li Luo has brought huge benefits to the family, earning more than 100,000 taels of silver every year, which makes the Li family have the scene of its heyday again.
Li Luo said in his heart, can the king of Goryeo be unhappy? I have made such a great achievement, and of course he has face as the king of Goryeo.
The king of Goryeo always wanted to fight for the status of the Goryeo people, and asked the Yuan court to count the Goryeo people in the Semu people. But the Yuan court never agreed.
This time, maybe there's a show. Provided, of course, that he does not rebel. But how is that possible?
Li Zhiyi and Li Huizhi and other brothers and sisters, when they heard the reward given to Li Luo by the Yuan Court, they were envious.
Originally, they thought that they were from a top family and had a noble status. Compared with Li Luo, a cousin of Ye Luzi, he has a sense of superiority.
But now, of course, that sense of superiority is gone. Instead, there is a kind of looking up.
That's right, Li Luo has become an existence that they look up to.
Yue Guogong, you can also crown a son as a county marquis!
Even the dignified Li family has only one Guogong.
They didn't know whether Li Luo was still the monarch of the Tang Kingdom, and if they did, they wouldn't know how to feel.
"You have returned triumphantly from Annam, and the Great Emperor will have a new official position for you?" Li Qian asked another question of concern. Of course, the title is important, but the official position is also very important.
Li Luo said: "Your Excellency, rest assured, my nephew has now been entrusted with the post of Pingzhang Political Affairs of Huguang Province, and he will take up his post next month." ”
"Good!" Li Qi was immediately relieved, "Pingzhang of Huguang Province is the first minister of Xinjiang, and he is in charge of half of the southern country, and he is not a noble minister. The fact that you can get this official position shows that the emperor has a lot of faith in you. ”
Li Zhiyi and others didn't know what the Pingzhang of Huguang Province meant, but when they heard Li Qi say that he was the first minister in Xinjiang and governed half of the southern country, they knew how heavy this official position was.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes looking at Li Luo were shining.
The "uncle and nephew" talked for a long time, and after a sumptuous dinner, Li Luo returned to Lanchi Xiyuan, where he lived before.
Lanchi Xiyuan is still so beautiful, and the old vines planted by Li Jian himself have also produced grapes.
However, Zhen Liangxiu back then was no longer in this courtyard.
Li Luo stayed in the Li family town for two days, and then left the Li family town and went to Kaegyo to meet the queen and the king of Goryeo.
This is also the meaning of Li Sign. Li Qian thought that Li Luo must go to Kaijing, so as not to gossip about others and the queen would be unhappy.
When Li Luo left, Li Qian personally escorted him to the door.
"Take care, my nephew. Next time, I don't know when I'll see you. When Li Luo left the Li family's city, he solemnly bid farewell to his "uncle" Li.
Let's bow down to you one last time, from now on, the fate of you and my uncle and nephew is over. In the near future, it will be an enemy or a relative.
Take care, uncle, I want you alive.
If we could see each other next time, it wouldn't be the situation today. I can't change that. You can't change either.
"Do it well! Take care all the way! I often write back, the old man is old, maybe one day I will go to see your father. I don't know if Li Qian has any feelings, and his tone is a little sentimental.
Li Luo kowtowed, "My lord, please go back!" ”
After that, he boarded the carriage and waved goodbye.
It wasn't until Li Luo's carriage was out of sight that Li Qian withdrew his gaze. For some reason, there was a faint uneasiness in his heart, as if it would be difficult to see this unicorn-like nephew of the Li family in the future.
…………
"Hahaha, what an auspicious white cloud! Li Loanda, you're here! No wonder my Hai Dongqing is so happy today! ”
When Li Luo arrived at the Kaijing Imperial Palace, the first thing to greet him was not the Yellow Gate in the palace, but Princess Anping, that is, the retainer of the queen of Goryeo: Yinhou.
"Yinhou Anda, I've finally seen you!" Li Luo smiled and patted Yin Hou's shoulder.
Yin Hou is a Mongolian, and he met Li Luo before, and he was very close to each other, so he was commensurate with Anda.
"Oh, I heard that Li Luoanda is the county prince of the Great Khan, and he has made a lot of military exploits, and even the Annan barbarians have made you peaceful, I am really happy and envious!" Yin Hou said heartily, he didn't know that Li Luo had been crowned the Duke of the Kingdom.
Li Luo said with a smile: "Although you can make meritorious contributions by fighting outside, it is not as good as waiting for you, and you can share your worries for the princess every day." ”
Yin Hou said: "The princess heard that you are going to enter the palace to meet you, and she is not even going to hunt, she is waiting for you!" ”
The two came to the queen's bedchamber and entered directly without notice.
This would have been extremely uncourteous. How could the queen receive her courtiers in the palace?
However, the king of Goryeo couldn't manage it, and he didn't dare to manage it.
As soon as Li Luo entered the dormitory, he saw a round-faced queen losing her temper.
"Go! Scratch that woman's face, shave her hair, and send it to the Qingloufang outside the palace! Hongu also asked her whole family to wear green clothes and green headscarves! ”
As soon as Li Luo heard it, he knew that the king of Goryeo had stolen something, which made the queen furious.
It's not the right time to come by yourself.
