The Datang School in Anshi County has poured a lot of effort into Li An, however, Li An's hard work has not been in vain, the local schoolchildren here study very hard, and some of the students with better qualifications can even barely talk to Li An, which makes Li An very happy, and the younger the schoolchildren, the faster the speed of learning, and the older the schoolchildren, the progress of learning the Datang language is much slower.

When Li An came to inspect, he gave great rewards to the students who studied better, so as to encourage them to learn cultural knowledge faster and better, and better serve the Tang Empire in the future, so that the advanced civilization of the Tang Empire can spread to Anshi County.

Anshi County is an important node of the Maritime Silk Road, and it can be regarded as the middle point of the Silk Road, although this middle point is not really the center of the route, but it is not much worse.

It is a very correct choice to set up the most important overseas school of Datang here, as long as the school here is developed, it can then expand forward and backward, drive the development of Malacca and Anzhu County, so that the people in these areas can learn the language of Datang, and in the future, let everyone in the world speak Datang dialect, so that the language of the world is unified, that is the best thing.

Leaving Anshi County, the next stop is the waters of Malacca, this area because of the many islands, so, piracy has been rampant, but since Li An led the Tang fleet to the south, most of the pirates of this generation have been cleaned up, and the remaining pirates are some small number of stragglers, the strength is very weak, it is difficult to pose a greater threat to the merchant ships.

Moreover, the armed ships of the Tang Dynasty have been operating in the waters of Malacca, which has a huge deterrent effect on these remnants of pirates, making them easily afraid to go out for activities, and even, because they can't continue to operate, they choose to quit the piracy industry and turn to serious business, which also makes the whole province fearful.

After all, no one in the world wants to live a life of fear, such a day is too sad, if you can get huge benefits, maybe there are still people willing to do this, but if you can't get any benefits, or can only get a small amount of benefits, then no one will be willing to do this.

Only when pirates can get huge benefits, will someone be willing to do this business, even if it is at the risk of their lives, but with the intervention of the Tang Dynasty, the pirates in Malacca have lost the way to easily obtain profits, and they have lived a very hard life, except for a very small number of diehards, most of the pirate members have left this industry one after another, to do serious business, such as being a bodyguard or something, it is the most suitable, many pirates are fishermen transformed, and it is also a very good way to go back to fishing. In short, the vast majority of pirates can leave the pirate profession, unless they have done too much evil and it is difficult to integrate into society again, they will continue to venture into the pirate profession.

"Li Shilang, now it's not far from Malacca Island, after resting in Malacca, we can return to Datang's Guangzhou Port at one time, and we are going home."

The subordinates stood on the deck, their faces were full of excitement, it was obvious that they had been away from the Tang Dynasty for a long time, and they were about to return home, and they would be able to see their relatives.

Ang Lee's mood is the same, very excited and happy, although Ang Lee has lived a very happy and fulfilling life along the way, but this feeling is different from the feelings of home, home will give people a very reassuring and comfortable feeling.

"Yes! We will be able to go home soon, which is a year or two, which is a lot longer than originally expected. ”

Li An looked at the vast sea in front of him and sighed.

People will always miss their hometown in other places, and the more they are on the way back, the stronger the homesickness becomes, and the closest to the door is the strongest.

"Persuade you to have a glass of wine, there is no one in Yangguan in the west, we go south together, the road we walk is much farther than Yangguan in the west, and now, we are finally coming back, and we can finally go home."

A subordinate stood behind Ang Lee, looked at the occasional seabirds flying in the sky, and sighed.

"Where to sail at the end of the day, the end of the world is broken, we have traveled all the way and opened up the Maritime Silk Road for Datang, we can finally go back, and we no longer have to drift on the sea."

Another subordinate sighed.

Li An smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, Datang is a poet, any reader can write a few poems, and the quality of the poems is very good, and it is catchy to read.

Of course, the poems spoken by these subordinates were not written by themselves, but just sighed, borrowing the poems of celebrities.

In short, the closer you get to the Tang Dynasty, the stronger the homesickness of everyone.

In the dead of night, many people will go up to the deck, look at the stars in the sky, miss their hometown, miss their relatives, and miss a lot, and the mood will be better, so as to weaken the inner debt.

The Malacca region is the first overseas state and county established by Li An in the south, and the operation time is naturally the longest, and the effect of construction is naturally the best, there is no doubt about this, many important nodes have been built very completely, and the defense facilities are extremely strong, and it is impossible to conquer them without artillery weapons.

And artillery is a unique technology of the Tang Dynasty, so these strong fortresses are nothing in front of the elite soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, but in the eyes of the rest of the countries and forces, they are very powerful existences.

In the entire area of Malacca, Datang already has a number of strategic points, but Li An is in a hurry to go back, so he can't go to inspect point by point, he can only selectively go to a location, leave here after a few days of rest, and arrive in Datang's Guangzhou at one time.

When he returned from Europa, Li Ang had already informed the imperial court, and Datang's advanced communication technology had already sent the news back to the imperial court, so that the emperor and ministers of the imperial court would know the news of Li An's imminent return.

On behalf of the Tang Empire, Li An successfully opened up the Maritime Silk Road, which surpassed that of any minister of the imperial court, and no one's credit can be compared with Li An.

If you want to say that no one is jealous of Ang Lee, this is impossible, but jealousy is jealousy, Ang Lee's credit is here, no one can snatch it away, and they can only admire Ang Lee convincingly.

"I heard that Li An's kid is coming back, and I don't know when I will be able to get to Chang'an City?"

In the apse of Daming Palace, Yurou looked at Yuhuan and spoke.

"That kid, my sister is really good at talking, he is not a few years younger than you, hehe!"

Yang Yuhuan was in a very good mood at this time, and any interesting sentence could amuse her.

"Our sisters are the same generation as Your Majesty, and that kid is Your Majesty's grandchild, isn't it our grandchild, what's wrong with calling him a kid?"

Yang Yurou said with a smile.

Yang Yuhuan smiled even more happily, nodded and said, "What my sister said is that he is not our grandchild, and the grandson is coming back, should we prepare some gifts!" ”

"What a gift we're going to have! It should be that he prepared some gifts to honor us. ”

Yang Yurou said domineeringly.

Since the concubine was favored, she, as a sister, has become more and more presumptuous, and her courage has become more and more daring, not only does she not want to be the minister of the court, but even sometimes she dares to be the emperor of the court.

Yang Yuhuan thought for a while and said: "I don't know if this grandson, if he remembers us after he goes out, will he bring us gifts, overseas is so big, there should be a lot of strange things." ”

Since Li An drew a map of the world, the best and largest map is in the Daming Palace, and it is still in Li Longji's dormitory, Yang Yuhuan went to sleep every day, and naturally he can see this map, so knowing the vastness of the outside, he is naturally full of curiosity about the outside world.

It's a pity that she is the emperor's woman, her status is noble and important, she must stay with the emperor every day, and she can't go out of the palace at will, let alone go overseas to wander, unless the emperor needs to go overseas, maybe he will take her with him.

But the emperor is so important to an empire that he can't easily leave the capital for too long, otherwise, once a palace coup occurs, it will be too late.

Since ancient times, there have been many palace coups, which have occurred very frequently, and the king of a country will often lose his life because of the palace coup, so the emperor will not leave the capital for a long time.

It's just because Li An invented railway transportation to make travel particularly convenient, so that the emperor went to a place far away from the palace to play and inspect, for example, when you have nothing to do, you can go to Luoyang City to play, or go south, but if you want to go to distant overseas, this is too difficult, I'm afraid it is difficult to implement, after all, overseas is too far, and the security problem is not too easy to solve, so you can only go around in Datang mainland.

However, if Li Longji really wants to go overseas to play, it is also a very simple matter, let his son succeed to the throne as emperor, hand over the Tang Dynasty to his son, and then, he retires, there is nothing to do, can't he take his wife to overseas for a vacation?

Of course, this kind of thinking is a bit too naïve, and regardless of whether Li Longji is willing to retire or not, even if he is really willing to give up the throne and hand over the country to his son to take care of, in this way, will he really be able to live for the rest of his life? Could his favorite concubine be his own? Will he be snatched away by his own son, if his beloved concubine likes some particularly valuable items, he doesn't have so much money in his hand, and he still needs to ask his son to ask for it, so he should be more aggrieved, in case his son refuses on the grounds that the treasury is empty, then he doesn't even have the ability to please his concubine.

There are too many unknowns and too many uncertainties in this, so for the sake of his own power and absolute security, Li Longji does not dare to hand over power to his son while he is alive, lest his son oppose him, and in this way, he will really be finished.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Tang Dynasty has experienced coups d'état again and again, and every coup d'état is a scene of rivers of blood, and there is no heir to the throne who can ascend to the throne without bloodshed, even if he has ascended the throne, he will face coups d'état again and again.

Li Longji promoted his father to the throne through a coup d'état, and then, because of his own merits and his brother's courtesy, he sat on the throne, and then, in order to consolidate his throne, he forced many relatives to death, even his own son.

In other words, there are too many sins in Li Longji's body, and he has done countless bad things, and once he loses power, it is difficult to ensure his safety and prosperity.

Forcing his aunt Princess Taiping to death, unjustly killing many sons, and snatching his son's wife as his concubine, these things are all stains on Li Longji's life, with these stains, his son may not be sincere to him, as long as he loses power, he is nothing.

The real history also proves this, after the Anshi Rebellion, the crown prince was elected as the new son of heaven, and the emperor became the emperor and lost the rights of the past, and then, as the rebels were completely wiped out, the emperor left Shuzhong and returned to Chang'an City.

But the emperor who lost his power no longer had the style of the past, not only was the place of residence confined to a small place, but also, in order to prevent him from regaining power, the emperor restricted his personal freedom, and the most terrible thing was to expel the old eunuch who had followed him for many years, so that the emperor did not even have anyone to talk to, so that he gradually lost the meaning of living, and soon died of depression.

Yang Yurou listened to her sister's words, thought for a while, and said: "This good grandson has been gone for more than a year, and it is impossible to bring nothing when he comes back, he must have brought a lot of good things, as long as I let me know, it is up to him whether to send it or not." ”

Unconsciously, Sanniang's domineering personality was revealed again, and although it seemed very domineering, it was not offensive at all, but it was very comfortable to listen to.

"Sister, don't make a mistake, our sisters are thanks to the emperor's grace, it's better to be more restrained in doing things, it's too public, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."

Yang Yuhuan opened his mouth to admonish.

Yang Yuhuan is very clear about the Yang family's recent publicity, although this shows that the emperor attaches great importance to her, she always feels that it is not a good thing to be so public.

"My sister is kind-hearted, everything is considered for others, not just for some small gifts, it's not a big deal, if my sister thinks it's inappropriate, my sister doesn't fight this idea."

Yang Yurou said with a smile.
