As Li Hong expected, when the royal mighty procession had just arrived not far from Baqiao, it had to stop slowly, but neither Li Hong, nor Wu Mei, nor the other kings got out of the car, or even stopped.
After Shangguan Wan'er was dressed in palace clothes and walked out of the car gracefully surrounded by palace maids and eunuchs, it was destined that these saints and sages would not get the royal respect they wanted.
Several old men looked dazed, and their thin beards looked a little gloomy and embarrassed in the breeze, especially Kong Yuan and Yan Yude, who thought that even if they couldn't distinguish the current saint today, but at least after arguing with the saint, the status of the saint Confucian sage would rise no matter what, so that the people of the world could at least see His Majesty's courtesy to them, thus greatly increasing their influence.
But things are not as they think, they chose this day because they had premeditated, and even waited here two days in advance, in order to be able to restore the influence of Confucianism to the period of the strong Han Dynasty through the royal momentum in the prosperous scene of the Tang Dynasty today.
Although it is not expected that the current saints will be able to exalt Confucianism like Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it is enough for them to restore the influence of Confucianism to its former heyday.
But His Majesty did not even come forward, and even preferred to risk disrespecting the people of the world, the doctors, rather than argue with them here.
Shangguan Wan'er, who was dressed in palace clothes, stood gracefully and luxuriously in front of Kong Yuan, Yan Yude and others, and did not take the lead in saluting after seeing a few of them as they expected.
As if waiting for them to salute, with a faint smile on his face, he looked at a few of them one by one, and then just glanced back at the eunuch behind him.
The carriage that Kong Yuan and the others stopped on the side of the road was driven aside by the eunuchs and the central army, making way for the royal travel team.
Kong Yuan and the others, who were standing there confronting Shangguan Wan'er, drove away their carriage before both parties also saluted, although it was not too much, but it made these self-righteous Kong Yuan and others, who thought that in the name of the sage and sage, they could naturally let the royal family salute before them, and their expressions became somewhat embarrassed.
overestimated their status in the hearts of the royal family, and even overestimated their influence in the hearts of the people of the world, thinking that with their reputation, how could they get His Majesty out of the car and greet each other with courtesy.
But who would have thought that His Majesty, who never conformed to the rules, even in the face of them, would be embarrassed to close the door twice in a row.
"The old husband Kong Yuan and Yan Yude have seen the Shangguan Imperial Concubine. At that time, Shangguan Yi, the grandfather of Shangguan Imperial Concubine, was smart and studious....... Kong Yuan and Yan Yude took the lead in saluting with red faces.
To their surprise, after a few of them saluted, Shangguan Wan'er just nodded slightly, just like facing the rest of the people in the world, and didn't even salute.
The royal team behind Shangguan Wan'er, after driving those carriages away, began to move slowly and silently, and no one really took what happened here today.
"A few years ago, His Majesty issued an order to prohibit the so-called five wealthy nobles from using various things that are directly related to Taiyi City, and the result is that within two months, they don't even have quilts and cotton clothes for winter, and it is not an exaggeration to describe their respective mansions with four walls. The old gentlemen were obviously not pedantic people, the carriage was not bad, such a wheel was driving, the movement was small, and the sitting was not bumpy, for several old gentlemen, it could be said that it was very suitable. Shangguan Wan'er looked at the black rubber wheels, and even the connection between the axle and the carriage was also equipped with a shock-absorbing spring.
"The imperial concubine's words are wrong, Your Majesty seeks the well-being of the people of the world, and the old man and others are also the ...... of my Tang people."
"Since several old gentlemen agree that they are the people of the Tang Dynasty, then the matter of blocking the royal car, the palace will open the net, and today I will no longer pursue it with the old gentlemen. His Majesty is kind, and naturally he is unwilling to embarrass a few old gentlemen, but ....... Shangguan Wan'er looked back at the convoy behind her, which was slowly moving forward, and it happened that the car where Li Hong and Wu Mei were sitting together had just passed.
Shangguan Wan'er, who turned around, looked at a few old gentlemen, smiled quietly, and then saluted and said lightly: "Your Majesty doesn't know that a few old gentlemen are here, so I don't have anything to say." ”
After finishing speaking, Shangguan Wan'er ignored a few Kong Yuan and the others who were a little stunned, turned around and walked to the carriage where Li Lingyue and Pei Wanying were still sitting in the carriage.
Looking at the few scholars who were struggling to write next to the old men, Shangguan Wan'er pondered for a while, swallowed all the words back into her stomach, she didn't want to do the truth, and she didn't want those old men to misinterpret their words, so as to add glory to their Confucianism again.
Those few scholars who worked hard to write were obviously waiting for Shangguan Wan'er to speak, and no matter what came out of her mouth at that time, as long as it was commented by these people, everything would be different, and it was not impossible to even go against her original words.
"It's as simple as that?" Pei Wanying was a little surprised, and couldn't hold back the surprise and curiosity in her heart, and asked in the carriage.
"Isn't that right? The shadow of the famous tree, the concubine has been arranged by His Majesty to study Confucianism ...... over the years. "After getting into the carriage, Shangguan Wan'er is completely like a different person compared to just now.
"But are you proficient in what others don't know, and we don't know yet?" Li Lingyue leaned on Shangguan Wan'er's shoulder, put one of Shangguan Wan'er's arms in her arms with both hands and said.
After all, if it weren't for the publicity of "The World", Shangguan Wan'er's reputation would not have reached such a peak, which made Kong Yuan, Yan Yude and others a little jealous.
But when it comes to real talent and learning, how could Li Hong really let his imperial concubine become a pedantic female pedant?
Therefore, all of this is not so much Shangguan Wan'er's true talent and learning, but rather that Shangguan Wan'er's fame, which was publicized by "The World", completely shocked Kong Yuan and others the moment they got out of the carriage, so that they did not dare to argue with Shangguan Wan'er easily when they were flustered after they didn't see Li Hong.
Wu Mei was also kept in the dark, although she was somewhat suspicious in her heart, Shangguan Wan'er and Li Lingyue were in charge of "The World in the World" together, and they did have real talent and learning, but could they really reach the point of arguing with Confucian people like Kong Yuan , Yan Yude and others?
Over the years, Li Hong's influence on the people around him is obvious, and it is impossible to be next to a big boss who admires Legalism the most, but there are two people who are prominent in Confucianism lying down.
So when Wu Mei heard Li Hong's strategy, it was just to scare, and she couldn't help but scoff at Li Hong's little tricks.
With the footsteps of their royal family, it will take less than two days to reach Qianling, but Wu Mei is obviously not in a hurry, so this trip to Qianling, which is near Chang'an, took the royal family nearly three days to arrive in the afternoon.
