Chapter 1014: Coming to Dengzhou Again

What's more, Shigong's health is very good, and it is estimated that after he succeeds to the throne, he will be able to accompany him for a while. I didn't understand why my father respected my master so much, but now Li Jiyuan finally knows. The people of the entire Tang Dynasty combined, I am afraid that I will not be able to find a person with a higher foresight than Shigong.

climbed Mount Tai, which made Li Jiyuan tired enough, and the tour group had to stop in Dengzhou to rest for a while.

Now Dengzhou has benefited from shipping and seafood, and has been greatly developed. Not far from the sea, a new state town has been built. Dengzhou, no longer the impoverished lower state before, has now successfully turned over and entered the ranks of the upper states.

Now the history of Dengzhou's assassination is Zhang Deyu, and since Zheng Cheng was transferred, he has been in charge of Dengzhou's assassin history. Over the years, Dengzhou has continued to become rich and powerful, and his official achievements are also more conspicuous in the court.

However, Zhang Dede shirked the solicitation of Zhongshu and decided to continue in the position of assassin history.

When Leng Feng arrived in Dengzhou, Zhang Deyu naturally had to do his best to entertain him.

In the Assassin's Mansion, after three rounds of drinking, Zhang Deyu said the reason for not going to Chang'an: "Although Dengzhou is rich, there is still a distance from Chang'an. The purpose of our Academy of Literature is to treat everyone equally, with Chang'an as the center, and radiate to all parts of the country to open schools. If it is a normal situation, Dengzhou has only just obtained the qualification to build a school by now. When Senior Zheng Cheng entered Beijing, he relied on some gentlemen to let Dengzhou open a school in advance.

The students are from Dengzhou and know how poor Dengzhou was at the beginning, until the sea and seafood were opened. , Dengzhou has been developed. However, the ships docked at Dengzhou Port are all merchant ships from Yangzhou and other places, and there is no one in Dengzhou who does shipping business. Students feel that it is wrong for Dengzhou people to rely on the sea but not join the maritime industry. Only when Dengzhou people start shipping can Dengzhou prosper faster, rather than just existing as a docking point for outsiders.

If you want the people of Dengzhou to realize this, it is not enough for students to raise their arms and shout, but there must always be some people who understand knowledge, have insight and courage among the people. The older generation has no choice, and the students are pinning all their hopes on the next generation. If before the students retire, it will be more meaningful to see a Dengzhou people's own maritime fleet appear than to go to Zhongshu Province and work hard.

Having said so much, in fact, students are just weak-minded. The student is a person who is tired of leaving home, and it is very uncomfortable to study at the Faculty of Letters. In this life, I'm probably going to be out of this way, hehe. ”

Ignoring Zhang Deyu's self-deprecation, Leng Feng knew that not being able to leave home was just one aspect, and what supported Zhang Deyu to stay in Dengzhou and give up his progress was his expectation for his hometown.

When the Academy of Literature comes out, there will always be some people who not only look up and forward, but also know how to look down, and they are the ones who really have official integrity. Like Zheng Cheng, who has now served as a three-term assassin, has a knighthood and cares about the people's livelihood in various state capitals, many people laugh at him for not being motivated, but he is leisurely.

"You have a fight with your senior Zheng Cheng, you are all very pure officials. In fact, who can deny that caring about people's livelihood and devoting a lifetime to it is also a lofty ambition? ”

With the support of Mr., Zhang Deyu was very happy and couldn't help but drink a few more glasses. After he refused to be promoted, the people around him were admonishing him, and Mr. Today's affirmation gave him great confidence.

When the journey arrived in Dengzhou, the exchange of letters between the tour group and Chang'an resumed.

In the past, when I was in Lingnan and along the coast, it was one thing to send letters slowly, and it was another thing to not be able to deliver them. And after arriving in Dengzhou, the letter was not only delivered quickly, but also delivered.

Through Leng Jing's letters, Leng Feng learned that in the two years since he left Chang'an, Li Jingwei, Chi Gongxian, Fang Xuanling and others have passed away one after another. The retired generals of the Zhenguan period were left with Niu Jinda, who was in the waning mountains, and Cheng Yanjin, who was still alive and well. On Wenchen's side, Chu Suiliang was the only one left, and even the eldest grandson Wuji also burped.

Sometimes, time is the most ruthless force, what's the use of competing with others for a while? Surviving longer than others is victory.

It is now the twelfth year of Yong'an, Leng Feng is only fifty-six years old, and others have already calculated the matter of dying at this age, and Leng Feng knows that if there is no strange disease, he may have at least twenty or thirty years to live.

Li Shimin was in a wheelchair and couldn't go out easily. He is not good at doing things, and he no longer tosses and kills few people in the island country, and likes to read books and play cards. His little abacus is right, he really lives longer than the heroes of Zhenguan.

Along with Leng Jing's letter, there was also an invitation letter from Li Shimin.

It is not an invitation to a banquet, but an invitation to play mahjong. With the gradual death of Zhenguan Laochen, Li Shimin can't find a suitable opponent if he wants to play mahjong now, so he is more and more depressed about Leng Feng's travel, and the whole letter is urging Leng Feng to go back quickly, and he will win a lot of money and bring it to the grave. If he delays any longer, he will let Li Chengqian give an order.

I have to say that anyone who becomes the emperor will become a scoundrel, he was extremely depressed about Li Yuan's scoundrel at the beginning, but when he reached this age, he still couldn't avoid vulgarity.

After reading the letters of these two people, Leng Feng opened Liu Shuwen's letter.

Liu Shuwen didn't complain about Leng Feng leaving them out, the reason why she wrote was to ask Xiaocai if it was time to find Leng Rui's in-laws, now Leng Rui has entered the Academy of Arts to study, and he will graduate in more than a year.

With the current status of the Leng family, every move will have a great impact on Datang. Instead of worrying about which family to marry will cause changes in the power of the court, it is better to leave it to Leng Rui and let him find it by himself.

Thanks to the girls' academy, women are no longer detained in boudoirs, lantern festivals and other activities, and everyone wears conical hats and goes out on the street under the escort of the family without being accused of being rude.

After reading the letter, Leng Feng got up and went to visit Li Jiyuan.

As long as this kid is okay, the tour group will be able to really return.

It will take less than a month to return to Chang'an by water from Dengzhou. And along the way, there is no special scenery to stop.

Li Jiyuan was also reading the letter, and when he saw the master enter the door, he was embarrassed to hide a letter under his pillow.

"It's a letter written by your mother, let me guess, she must have asked you how much you have learned, and whether you have won the favor of the old man?"

Li Jiyuan took out the letter and said helplessly: "You guessed right, that's it." Obviously, you are my master, but the queen mother always gives me some ideas to win your favor, and they are all extremely pretentious. ”
