Returning to the palace is a thing that makes Li Hong feel uneasy in his heart, he is afraid of being held accountable by the queen mother, so in the morning, he quietly slipped into the palace, four palace maids and four eunuchs, go out to count him as nine people, and come back or ...... Oh, and it turned out to be ten people when they came back.

The Wude Hall seemed very quiet inside and out, this was the effect that Li Hong deliberately pursued, and he hadn't figured out how to meet his mother yet.

That's it, Charming still knew the news of Li Hong's return to the palace for the first time. The other palace maids and eunuchs in the palace looked like they had seen a ghost when they saw him, and they all showed frightened looks, and the same voice appeared in their hearts: "The little demon king has returned to the palace!" ”

The news spread to Wu Mei's ears, naturally, Li Hong's punishment was not exempted, no matter how coquettish he was in front of Wu Mei, begging for mercy, and all kinds of methods were exhausted, he was still ordered by Wu Mei to kneel under the small tree he planted himself for more than an hour.

Li Hong, who I hadn't seen for more than a month, grew taller, thinner, and darker, and his whole person was much stronger than before he left the palace.

When Wu Mei heard that Li Hong had brought back a person, she immediately angrily pressed Li Hong on her leg and beat her buttocks.

"I went out to the palace at a young age, and when I came back, I even brought one back with my hand to find a concubine for myself." Wu Mei scolded Li Hong sarcastically.

In the end, Wu Mei was too lazy to care about his nosy business, and let him watch the placement by himself, Li Hong didn't have a proper way for a while, so he had to take it with him every day, as if there was another palace maid.

When Li Hong left, Wu Mei looked at the little back and couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, the harem that has been quiet for more than a month should be jumped again, and I don't know who will suffer these days." Lian Tie, pass the order, no matter the palace maids or eunuchs in the harem, it is best not to approach the Wude Hall of the acting king in recent days. Wu Mei said to Lian Tie like a thief, causing several palace maids next to her to cover their mouths and snicker.

Bai Chun pouted in the Wude Palace, mocking Li Hong for imprisoning herself in the harem, and doing no different things than she transported Tang craftsmen to Qiuzi.

Li Hong lay on the couch and warned her solemnly: "You are now a criminal of the Tang Dynasty, but I took you with me because of your identity." When the case is closed in Dali Temple, you should go to prison! ”

After everything in the Wude Hall was cleaned up, the sky gradually darkened, Li Hong got up from the couch carefully, the queen mother didn't seem to beat Li Xian much in the past month, and she kept all this strength for herself, and her buttocks were swollen again.

Early in the morning, leaving Bai Chun in the Wude Palace, Li Hong put on his small backpack and took Xia Zhi and Bai Lu to Li Zhi's Ganlu Palace.

The Tang Dynasty craftsmen held hostage by Qiuzi Kingdom made Li Hong, who was thinking on the way back to the palace, make a bold decision, that is, in the next few years, the main wars of the Tang Dynasty will still take place in the west, whether it is possible to send people to contact those Tang Dynasty craftsmen and train a group of regular spies and agents from them.

This is also the main reason why he is looking for Li Zhi, Yang Wu seemed to know that he was back, stood at the door with his hands down and saluted him with a smile, and said, "Your Majesty is waiting for you in the study early in the morning." ”

For the small backpack with bulging baggage on Li Hong's back, it seems to be invisible in Yangwu's eyes, let alone checking, he doesn't even dare to ask, he knows the temper of the acting king clearly, and he will report it.

Before the person approached the door of the study of the Ganlu Palace, Li Zhi's voice came from inside: "You kid still know how to return to the palace, do you know, if you don't return to the palace, your queen mother will overturn my Ganlu Palace." ”

"The son-in-law Li Hong has seen his father." Li Hong held his head high, and he didn't know what kind of etiquette he was doing, so he shouted and walked into Li Zhi's study.

Yang Wu on the side shook his head, such a prince is really rare, fortunately, he is the only one in the entire palace, otherwise the rules of this palace will really be messed up.

In comparison, Luwang Li Xian is much better than him in this aspect, he is always polite and well-read, knowledgeable, and pleased.

Li Zhi looked at Li Hong dotingly, touched his head and said, "Well, yes, I haven't seen you for more than a month, I have grown taller and stronger." What's the matter, is there something wrong with finding my father at this time? "How could Li Zhi not understand that the little guy chose this time period to find him just to avoid the surveillance of his mother.

"Father, the son wants to discuss something with you." Li Hong was not polite, and said directly.

Li Zhi looked at him and frowned, the little thing just returned to the palace and didn't stay honestly for a few days, selling in front of his mother, why did he think of a way to make trouble as soon as he came back.

Li Hong looked at Li Zhi's study, and at some point there were furniture such as chairs and tables in the palace, and there were already beds, but it seemed that no one was used to sleeping on the bed now, and the role of the bed became dispensable, like an ornament.

And the Hu chair and the Hu table were obviously accepted relatively quickly, and at this moment Li Zhi's study was placed with these, but the opening of the Hu chair was relatively large, and soft futons were also placed on the chair surface.

Li Zhi walked behind the Hu table and did not sit directly on it like the previous generation, but sat on the Hu chair.

This is the correct sitting posture when the Tang people received tables and chairs in the first days, in the later Todai-ji Shosoin in Japan. Nowadays, there are still precious cultural relics such as Hu chairs and Hu beds that have been handed down from the Tang Dynasty, and the openings of the chairs are very large, mainly to facilitate the Tang people to sit habitually, so they make furniture.

Li Hong glanced at Li Zhi who was sitting on the chair strangely, climbed onto another chair in front of Li Zhi's desk, and his buttocks were beaten by Wu Mei and the swelling had not subsided, so he had to squat on the chair even more indecently.

Li Zhi looked at his virtue and sighed helplessly, daring to be so unscrupulous in front of him, I'm afraid there is only this villain in front of him.

"Tell me, something." Li Zhi asked.

Li Hong squatted on the chair like that, and told Li Zhi about the incident of kidnapping his palace maid and the affairs of Ci'en Temple, including the inability to redeem the Tang craftsmen.

took a sip of the boiled water that Yang Wu had prepared for him, and then said his own thoughts, that is, he hoped that Li Zhi would allow the stinging to follow the cheetah, plus two eunuchs to go to Qiuzi to get close to the Datang craftsmen and develop intelligence personnel who were useful to the Datang.

After Li Zhi listened to Li Hong's thoughts, he looked at him strangely, smacked his lips and said lightly: "Hong'er, I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle, my father really can't let Yangwu send two more eunuchs, isn't it enough to stun and cheetah?" ”

"Not enough, because every move of the cheetah and the stinger needs your own people to monitor their every move, and in the future, these people can only follow your orders." Li Hong also said bluntly.

To put it bluntly, if one is not done well, it will incur very serious consequences, which is equivalent to establishing another Lijing Gate in the Western Regions. It's one thing whether his father can rest assured.

Li Zhi smiled when he heard Li Hong's frank words, he was originally holding a sense of temptation, to see if anyone else gave him an idea, but now it seems that he has thought too much, this is definitely this little thing's own idea.

It's no problem to be out of the house by yourself, but there are two eunuchs missing by Li Hong's side for no reason, if the queen asks, how should he, the father, explain? I'm afraid this is the real reason why the little thing is looking for itself.

Li Zhi stroked the beard on his chin and muttered, "Hong'er, I'm afraid this matter is not feasible, my father really wants to fulfill your move, but ......." ”

Li Hong took off the small backpack on his shoulder, took out twenty crystal cards from it intermittently, and then looked at Li Zhi.

Under the illumination of the light, the brilliant crystal plaque looks even more blurry, crystal clear like winter ice, shining with a gripping light.

"Oh, Hong'er, it's difficult for your mother to explain to your father, you know, because your father ...... for you when you leave the palace." Li Zhi continued to procrastinate.

Li Zhi's implication is: This crystal card is your extended holiday trading item, it can't be counted, if you want your father to help you, you have to come up with something that interests your father.

Li Hong squatted on the chair, listened to Li Zhi's voice, put the small backpack between his legs, lowered his head and took out a glass cover from it, and under Li Zhi's fiery and bright eyes, he asked Yang Wu to bring the candlestick on the table.

Then Li Hong took off the gauze lampshade on the candlestick, and suddenly the room was much brighter, and then Li Hong carefully put the glass lampshade made according to the palace candlestick on the candlestick, the size was appropriate, and it was seamless.

Not only is the room not dark, but because of the translucent glass lampshade, the room seems to have some more luster. The candlelight burned calmly in the lampshade, no longer flickering at all.

"How?" Li Hong raised his head and asked.

Li Zhizheng stretched his neck to look into his small backpack, and when he saw Li Hong asking him, he immediately leaned back again, and said in embarrassment: "Hong'er, my father has to bear a lot of responsibility, and this matter is ......." ”

"Hmph." Li Hong snorted dissatisfiedly, this is because he didn't give enough, but fortunately, he was prepared.

Looking down, he took out two bright new glass goblets from his backpack, and the walls of the cups reflected the light in the light.

Lanling wine Li Hong had already prepared, motioned for Yang Wu to open it, and then poured half a cup into each of the two quilts, the amber Lanling wine swayed in the glass, and the faint ripples were clear through the bright glass wall.

"Let my father see what other treasures you have in this bag." Li Zhi was anxious, this piece is a rare treasure, and he was about to reach out and grab Li Hong's backpack after speaking.

Li Hong's eyes were quick, and he hid his backpack behind him as soon as possible.

Seeing that he couldn't grab it, Li Zhi leaned back on the chair and said lazily: "Hong'er, my father still needs to ...... this matter You still need to discuss ...... with your mother. ”

Li Hongluo got up from the chair, threw himself on the table and began to load the crystal card he had just put into his backpack: "Forget it, Erchen should beg the queen mother to go." ”

"Don't, don't...... My father agreed. Li Zhi hurriedly pressed Li Hong's small hand on the table and said with a smile.

Li Hong withdrew his little hand angrily, and looked at Li Zhi with an angry little face.

Li Zhi looked at the lampshade and asked, "Is there anything else about this?" If it is placed on the palace lamp in the courtyard of the palace, wouldn't it be even brighter? ”

As soon as Li Hong heard this, his heart immediately moved, hmph, since you cheated me regardless of the relationship between father and son, then don't blame your son for cheating Lao Tzu.

"Yes, but it's expensive, and there are cups like this, but it's expensive." Li Hong pondered for a long time and said embarrassedly.

"How much, my father wants it all, how much? Father gives it to you, you go and help your father buy it all back. Li Zhi was overjoyed when he heard it.

"Then it depends on how much you want." Li Hong's bright eyes turned around and replied.

"As much as you want."

"As much as you want!"

"How much does a lampshade cost? How much does a cup cost? "Li Zhi is very much like a local tyrant at the moment.

"Lampshade...... Twenty taels of silver, a cup...... Thirty taels! Li Hong gritted his back molars and asked for a sky-high price!

"Good! I promised you, for your sake! Yang Wu, inform the inner service province, the lampshade is pressed by Hong'er by thirty taels, and the cup is pressed by Hong'er by forty taels! The local tyrant waved his hand and said domineeringly.

"Deal!" Li Hong's heart is full of happiness!

Originally, I was still worried about the cost of stinging and cheetahs going to Qiuzi to develop Tang Dynasty craftsmen, but now it's all solved at once.

The two of them looked at each other with a smug smile in their hearts, and they both felt that they had taken a big advantage.

Neither of them expected that today's harmonious and happy scene will be available in shops on the streets and alleys of Chang'an many years later, when glass jewelry is gradually no longer a luxury.

Li Zhi chased and beat Li Hong with a stick and beat half of the palace, and the entire palace was tossed by the father and son, chickens and dogs jumping, ghosts crying and wolves howling. It was Wu Mei who chased closely behind the buttocks of the two, and personally persuaded her with good words, but she did not persuade Li Zhi, who was bent on teaching a lesson to the son of great rebellion.
