One night arrives, and in the blink of an eye, it's another day.

Today is the arrival time of Qingqi and her party, and Princess Taiping, who has been groomed and dressed, has been irrigated, and her spirit is far more full than yesterday.

She didn't see a change in her expression when she talked about this matter, and after laughing with Li Zhi, she deliberately explained a lot of precautions and the welcome banquet.

Unlike Princess Taiping, who came alone and changed her identity to a landlord and shareholder, she had to make some expressions with grace and grandeur.

According to Li Zhi's estimate, they will only arrive after noon, so when it is close to noon, she will arrange for people to wait at the relevant city gates.

urged Li Zhi to rush back before the sky was dark, and his virtuous attitude was like sending off his husband who was about to go away.

Not long after returning to the Wenqitang Garden, Yiqing got up to clean the yard, and Li Zhi opened the door after a while and found the two to enter and discuss the matter.

"This is some of today's expenses, and I will arrange for all the soldiers and horses to come and assist."

"Are the ladies coming?" has always been alive and coincidental, but because of this, he has a nervous look.

Li Zhi said with a smile: "There are also several shopkeepers of Zhengqing Wenqitang in Luoyang, they will live here in the future, their identity is more important than me, you need to take care of it seriously." ”

"Will the husband and wife leave in the near future?" Yiqing's words were a little reluctant, and his worries about future encounters were greater than his departure.

"As for the placement of the two of you, it depends on your performance, and when I come again, you can ask whether you want to go to Chang'an City or stay here. Luoyang may become the capital in the future, and its future development will be much better than Chang'an, you should take this into account. ”

After Tang Taizong Li Shimin succeeded to the throne, he ordered the repair of Luoyang City, known as Luoyang Palace, he had come to Luoyang three times to deal with government affairs and foreign affairs, and lived in Luoyang Palace for two years.

Gaozong Li Zhi came to Luoyang more often when he ascended the throne, dealt with national affairs here, and took Luoyang as the eastern capital, as he gradually came to power from Wu Zetian due to illness, in fact, the capital of the Tang Dynasty had migrated from Chang'an to Luoyang.

Yiqiao's face suddenly turned sincere and earnest, "Sir, Sister Yiqing and I want to return to Chang'an City with you and your wife, because our hometown is near Chang'an, although our birthplace is in the palace. ”

I hadn't thought about this before, but when I heard it, Li Zhiluo thought about it and said with a smile: "In this case, discuss it with the ladies, and if they agree, you can return with me in the future." ”

He has always been tolerant of the resettlement of his subordinates, and he is very concerned about their personal wishes.

The two daughters were overjoyed, and they were also very attentive to Li Zhi's next arrangements for today.

Soon after, breakfast was served, and compared to the abundance of yesterday morning, the grade was much lower.

Li Zhi didn't care about these, if there was Lao Liu Tou, it would be more comfortable to eat than those things made in the imperial dining room.

In the future, Luoyang will also be a place where he often comes and goes, and the important ministers in the court such as the Ten Princes' Mansion will also move here with the death of Gaozong, and Luoyang will also be renamed Shendu by Wu Zetian, until another ten years later, Tang Zhongzong will be restored to the throne, and it will be renamed the Eastern Capital.

For Li Zhi himself, in terms of pure quality of life, he still prefers to live in Luoyang, where Chang'an City is dry and water-scarce, and the pollution is serious, which is far less neat and orderly than the new city Luoyang, and the waterways are smooth.

However, Chang'an City, as the base of the Li royal family, is undoubtedly the best place of refuge, and it has become a mature center of trade and cultural exchanges between China and the West.

Luoyang also sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty, especially the Arab Empire in the Western Regions, and one of the first things to do today is to notify the Arab Empire to send envoys to the Tang Dynasty to come and wait for the arrival of Afifa.

If the identity of Afifa is aside, the Zhengqing Wenqitang will be taken seriously by foreign trade only after a little delay, and the dispatch of Tang envoys will play a vital role in promoting it.

In addition, he will receive the official residence that was rewarded by the imperial court as the king of loyalty and righteousness, which was issued by Gaozong Qinkou and is also in the Lifang area of Luoyang City.

Yesterday, Gaozong asked him if he had set up his official residence in a certain palace, but Li Zhiwan declined.

His main responsibilities are not in the specific aspects of government affairs, and in the common perception, the port affairs are more inclined to trade and trade, and it is better to stay away from the palace area.

The actual location of the official residence was not determined yesterday, and today there will be relevant people waiting to come to the door to announce the awarding of the certificate.

Zhengqing Wenqitang is the third day of trial operation, and with the arrival of Qingqi and others, more expensive jewelry and jade that can be called national treasures will be placed on the counter.

With them, the official opening ceremony will be held in the next two days, and those valuables of thousands or tens of thousands of silver will be the cornerstone of the fame that shocks the opening.

Now that Li Zhi has a new relationship with Princess Taiping, she has been the most stable period of her life in recent years, and she is not in a hurry to protect her.

But she and Shangguan Wan'er are the main source of the inside story of the palace struggle that Li Zhiquan has been in charge of for more than ten years, and will have a major impact on the future situation.

Therefore, a few years later, Li Zhihui will focus on Luoyang, and how to ensure that the Empress Wu will not move on to himself in the past few years is particularly important.

After breakfast, he came to Zhengqing Wenqitang early, because since yesterday, the tense outside the building ladder has begun, and he needs to grasp the size of the key parts as soon as the framework is completed.

With the current hot sales trend, the crowd of people will make the sturdiness of the ladder outside the building extremely high, and he wants to refine some steel components to strengthen the bearing capacity of the ladder outside the building.

When Li Zhi came, sure enough, the construction craftsmen had been fighting all night in a row, and they were currently in a state of handover.

The ladder outside the building occupies a large area, which will compress the utilization rate of the backyard of Zhengqing Wenqitang a lot, the old courtyard wall has been demolished, and there will be more squares outside the building, which belongs to Zhengqing Wenqitang.

Yesterday, there were hundreds of Praetorian Guards who asked for help from Gaozong, and they would be exempted from the remaining years of military service and join the Zhengqing Wenqitang.

Among these people, half of them belong to the strength of junior cultivators, and they have already appeared in the store and other places today, and will be arranged to guard the liquor monopoly, port transportation, and paper mills outside the city in the future.

Princess Taiping arrived not long after, and when she saw Li Zhi from afar, the hidden smile on her face was already a little perceptible to him.

Li Zhi knows that because of her own relationship, she now has a new attitude towards life.

But unlike her own wives, Princess Taiping does not want to join the ranks of cultivators, and will also be obsessed with the status of the royal family and actively participate in political and family affairs.

What Li Zhi wanted to bring to her was not only to change her tragic fate, but also to leave a positive and glorious image in history.

"I have been notified to Honglu Temple, Honglu Qing Li Sheji is my cousin, this person is available. The Pawn Office also sent people to rush there, and the envoys sent by the Arab Empire to the Tang Dynasty lived there. ”

Without Taiping to explain more, Li Zhi knew that Li Sheji was a descendant of Gaozong and was not used by the Wu family.

This person has a nickname called Li Kaiwang, and in the history of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty, he was the most accomplished and influential calligrapher after the two kings.

Because of him, he changed the ancient method, founded the style of calligraphy in the early Tang Dynasty, and used the pen of the seal, turning the thin and hard into plump and majestic, the body was broad and magnificent, and the bone strength was strong and awe-inspiring.

This style was also praised by Taizong as reflecting the prosperous demeanor of the Tang Dynasty, and in line with his noble personality, calling it a perfect combination of calligraphy beauty and personality beauty, so the name of Li Kaiwang is unique in the calligraphy world for a while.

Honglu Temple was a special diplomatic department in the Tang Dynasty, and the Pawn Administration under its jurisdiction was responsible for entertaining foreign guests, and the gathering area of the residence of foreign guests near it was also collectively known as the Pawn Bureau.

"King Li Kai is a famous person, I have long been looking forward to talking to this person, but I can have another deep friendship in the future." Li Zhi said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Princess Taiping shook her head, "My cousin is stubborn by nature, and he has always been stubborn about women's participation in politics. Once the situation changes in the future, there is a great chance that my cousin will be suppressed, and I am thinking of sending him abroad to serve as an envoy abroad for a period of time. ”

Li Zhixin suddenly felt that there was no trace of this person in the annals of later generations, I am afraid that it was because the Empress Wu hated him to the bone, and after taking power, he was completely eradicated, and even a page of the book was burned.

"You mean that you want me to do my part and send him out to avoid the limelight for a while?"

Taiping nodded, "Uncle Sheji loves me very much, and he is not connected with my mother because of him, he is also the only old minister of the Taizong period in Luoyang City who openly raised the banner of royalism, and he is like a brother and sister to my father, and he is in the same situation as my mother!" ”

Li Zhi is happy to do something, Gaozong is still alive, and it is also the last chance to protect him, and with his relationship with the Arab Empire, it is undoubtedly the most suitable to temporarily avoid it as an ambassador abroad.

"This is handed over to me, but Uncle Sheji's attitude still needs you to communicate, otherwise he will be sent abroad in time, and it will be difficult to ensure that when the domestic situation changes dramatically, he will not return and throw himself into the net!"

"I'm afraid that my influence is far from being able to do it, but only my father can make him realize the key." ”

"I'll come, the emperor will remind you, but your mother's side needs you to downplay the resentment against this person, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure that you will be held accountable in the future!"

This is Li Zhi's style of doing things since his rebirth, striving for perfection and trying to avoid omissions, even if he achieves the magic power of heaven and earth one day in the future.

As soon as the opening time arrived, a large number of people poured in, and Aimall, the envoy of the Arab Empire to the Tang Dynasty in Luoyang, also arrived accompanied by King Li Kai.

"Mr. Li has been hiding it so hard, and it has been two days before he informed me!" Aimar looks like a typical Western Regionsman, speaking half-baked Chinese, which makes his bow look a little nondescript.

However, this did not affect Li Zhi's good impression of him, because this person and the emperor's envoy Mahdi actually had a surprisingly similar appearance.

"Dare to ask Mr. Ainar and Special Envoy Mahdi ......"

Aymal laughed, "All the envoys sent to Tang are all members of the Abdul family, and Mahdi's cousin is the longest under the emperor's brother, and I am similar in appearance to him, and it is also a topic of ridicule among more than twenty brothers!" ”

Li Zhi also laughed casually: "Then there are no outsiders, according to the Afifa side, I want to call my uncle!" ”

Aimar was very pleased with his knowledge, "In private, it is not bad to call him however, but in public, it is not appropriate to make a Tang prince call an elder as a foreign envoy, and I feel that your sincerity is enough!" ”

This statement is in line with normal interests, without Afifa by his side, Li Zhi's main identity is still dominated by officialdom.

In addition, he met with King Li Kai, who was able to open his mouth to get out the name of several poems of Li Zhi, and instantly shortened the distance between them.

King Li Kai is stubborn and stubborn, and he also knows Gaozong's appreciation of Li Zhi, so he invisibly attributed Li Zhi to the same family.

Due to the crowd in the store, visitors can only be welcomed into the underground storeroom, where a simple living room surrounded by screens has been temporarily erected.

On the side, Princess Taiping and King Li Kai exchanged in a low voice, and Li Zhiye and Aimar talked eagerly.

With the identity of the son-in-law of the Arab Empire, Li Zhi quickly felt the importance of privilege, and in just one stick of incense, Aimar actually placed the first batch of orders of nearly 10,000 taels for Zhengqing Wenqitang.
