Chapter 173: Friendship

As early as many years ago, when Concubine Yang Shu was accepted into the harem by His Majesty Li Er, she herself was very clear about her identity, she was the daughter of Emperor Yang of Sui, no matter how much she won the favor of His Majesty, it was always impossible to want a mother to be expensive with her son.

So for so many years, Concubine Yang has been cautious in her words and deeds, and she has always taught Li Ke not to think about wrongdoing, even if Your Majesty loves you very much, don't touch that year, otherwise, a catastrophe will come.

Concubine Yang is a smart person, he knows what the bottom line of the courtiers is, so Li Ke has been listening to Concubine Yang say these words since he was a child, and he has always been conscientious, and he does not dare to cross the thunder pool by half a step.

Thinking about his mother's concubine being so cautious in the palace, Li Ke's heart is also indescribable, so he tries to be mediocre on weekdays, and what he is down-to-earth is to avoid the sight of those courtiers, and also to let his mother concubine worry less about herself.

After the first day, Li Ke never entered the palace again, and has been carrying it in the mansion, dealing with the affairs of the fiefdom, Li Ke is not like Li Tai, can have a good internal affairs hand like Du Chuke, following Li Ke's long history, it is the person who Concubine Yang personally asked His Majesty Li Er, and the remaining people in the Wu Wangfu are all brought out by Li Ke from the army over the years, some are old, and they have disabilities, and they can't live on their own, so Li Ke took them back to Chang'an's mansion, and did what he could on weekdays. It's also self-reliant.

Even if it is the first day, there are not many people who come and go to the palace of King Wu, one is that Li Ke does not like to be noisy, and the other is the people of Chang'an City, who feel that this prince is dispensable for himself.

To put it bluntly, it is not enough to be taken seriously, and it can only be said that Li Ke is too low-key on weekdays.

So, when Li Chengqian and Li Tai took the carriage to the gate of King Wu's mansion, they saw such a closed gate.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai got out of the carriage, and the little eunuch who accompanied him took the thorn and quickly walked to the guard at the door and handed it out.

The guard at the door bowed slightly, then took the thorn and trotted all the way into the mansion through the side door.

"Your Royal Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the King of Wei are visiting." The guard ran directly all the way to the front hall, bowed down and handed the famous thorn in his hand in front of Li Ke.

Li Ke took the famous thorn, opened it and knocked it, and smiled: "Okay, this king knows, retreat." ”

"Yes." The guard answered, then turned and walked out the door.

Li Ke got up, returned to the room, changed his clothes, and arrived outside the house.

"You two are free today." Li Ke walked out of the gate of King Wu's mansion with a smile on his face.

"It's not free, I've been bored in the study for several days and haven't gone out, and when I think about it today, I'll come out to get together with the two of you." Li Chengqian smiled: "Since you have come out, let's go." ”

"Where?" Li Ke looked at the two and asked.

"Xuanwu Tower." Li Tai said: "Now it's just right to take advantage of Xiao Jing's absence, and you can still eat and drink for nothing." ”

"Jing Blind said, let's go, Chang'an is so big, there are few places we can go, it's safest to go to Xuanwu Tower, get in the car." Li Chengqian said.

The three of them got into the carriage, and the eunuch who drove the carriage jumped on the frame, flicked the whip, and set off for the Xuanwu Tower.

On the carriage, Li Chengqian sat in the middle, Li Tai and Li Ke sat on both sides, and the carriage walked out of the road for a while, and Li Chengqian asked: "Ah Ke, do you still have the transfer of troops from your fiefdom?" ”

When Li Ke heard this, he shook his head: "No, my fish talisman has long been handed over to my father, I have been in Chang'an, and it is useless to ask for that fish talisman, not to mention that I am still working in the right military guard camp." ”

Li Ke means that he is already in the right military guard camp, if he still has the fiefdom soldiers' transfer fish talisman in his hand, then he is in Chang'an, how can he have such a peaceful life.

"Big brother asks what is this?" Li Ke asked puzzledly, why did he ask about the fish talisman.

"Could it be that you don't know? Xiao Jing left Chang'an yesterday and went to Jingzhou. Li Chengqian said.

Li Ke nodded: "I know this, the eldest brother asked me about the fish talisman, did he want to help Xiao Jing?" ”

"That's right, this time Xiao Jing went to Jingzhou, only brought more than a dozen guards, how can this be reassuring, the land of Jingzhou is the rear of the six emperors' uncles who have been painstakingly operating for many years, for Xiao Jing, it can be described as a tiger's den in Longtan, in case something goes wrong....... Li Chengqian did not say any more.

Xiao Jing, but Uncle Mingde's only son, he Li Chengqian has taken care of the child since he was a child.

During the ten years that Xuan Shijing was in Longxi, he would communicate with Li Chengqian almost every month, asking Li Chengqian to take care of the Hou Mansion in Chang'an City, of course, Li Chengqian also did what Xuan Shijing said.

When the three brothers of Li Chengqian were the poorest and most embarrassed, Xuan Shijing let them join the chamber of commerce of the Hou Mansion without saying a word, and when they wanted to build a warm pavilion for the eldest grandson queen, Xuan Shijing came up with the idea and let the money pile be managed, so as to avoid their worries.

In short, the relationship between the three brothers and the Hou Mansion, whether it is the previous generation or this generation, is already inseparable.

"This is not to worry, early this morning, the British Duke also left Chang'an, set off to the Hanzhou border, and then detoured to the south of the Yangtze River, from Shuzhong to the east, it is estimated that it is like this, if the time is in time, then the British Duke will dispatch the government soldiers in Shannan Dongdao, if it is too late, I am afraid that the army will be transferred directly from the Hanzhou border in order to respond, and there is also Tubo in the west, the British Duke goes, I am afraid there is also the mind of preventing Tibet." Li Ke analyzed: "So the eldest brother still puts his heart in his stomach, all we can think of, I'm afraid my father has already made arrangements." ”

"That's right." Li Chengqian nodded in response.

The three brothers were going to go to Xuanwu Tower to eat and drink, but Xuan Shijing, who was involved in this matter, was still running on the road.

If you want to arrive at Shangzhou City before the evening, the town on the road does not even have time for lunch, just on the road, rest for a while, gnaw a few naan preserved fruits with white water, and everyone will go on the road again, as early as last night out of the town, the team entered the Qinling Mountains, and walked the rugged mountain road on the mountain road also greatly reduced the speed of everyone's advance, fortunately, this road is built straighter, from the mountain col to Shangzhou City, but also saved everyone a lot of time to detour.

Xuan Shijing and Shi Hu sat on the frame of the carriage together, staying in the carriage all the time, Rao could sit and lie down, but he couldn't stand the stuffiness in the carriage. (To be continued.) )
