Princess Yan's matter still caused a lot of repercussions in Loulan City, especially on the second day, when Loulan County Ling Wang Zhi was beheaded, the people in the entire Loulan City rushed out to watch, and some people even began to frame more charges on the body of Wang Zhi, a death row prisoner. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}

But these were not regarded by Li Hong as the same thing, and he didn't even bother to ask about it at all, but he promoted the county lieutenant of Loulan to other places as the county commander, and the county commander there rushed to Loulan overnight to take up his post.

After wandering in Loulan for three days, he finally waited for Fang Muqing who came from Chang'an, which naturally made Li Xian very excited, and the reason why he followed Li Hong and Li Zhe who returned to Chang'an to appear in Loulan was to be able to see Fang Muqing as soon as possible in the outermost city of Anxi.

Loulan is still a little more prosperous than it was back then, as the last post station for the Eastern and Western merchants before entering Anxi or the desert, they will often rest here and give the merchants all kinds of supplies before continuing to move forward.

Therefore, in recent years, as the three trade routes in Anxi have become more and more prosperous, and there is less threat to them from thieves on the way, Loulan has become the best post station for business travelers and tourists who do not need to hurry, whether it is entering Datang or leaving Datang, they are willing to come here to stay.

Because of Princess Yan's departure, the vacated mansion became Li Xian's temporary residence and a place for him and Fang Muqing to spend half a year together.

The agreement reached with Li Hong is that when the winter of Anxi comes, Li Xian will go to Jiling City, and as for what the fate will be next, I'm afraid only God knows.

But Li Xian also knows that the more dangerous the environment, the more he can achieve himself, no one can know whether he will be able to achieve a great cause in Jiling City, although he knows very well in his heart that even if he has passed all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, and finally stabilized most areas such as the chaotic Jiling City, so that they can identify and accept the civilization and culture of the Tang Dynasty, it is just to make a wedding dress for Li Hong, but his hidden ambition in his heart is still ready to move, and he wants to try it, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, In the end, can you do one or two things that will impress the royal family?

Starting from Loulan all the way to the east, whether it is through Yumen Pass, or other Tang Prefectures and counties, Li Hong will make a stop for two to three days, so the original half-month trip was extended by him to a full three months.

But along the way, Li Hong's behavior was quite high-profile, as if he was afraid that Chang'an would not know that he had immediately intervened in the affairs of the local government office in Datang since he left Anxi.

As he entered a state or county every time, a major change in officials at all levels in the state and county government offices followed, as if paving the way for him to return to the Tang Dynasty to inherit the throne.

The original state and county parents were transferred by him in large quantities, and a seal also flew to Zhongshu, Menxia, the Ministry of Officials and other places, and at the same time, Di Renjie, who had returned to Chang'an, also began to fly to the place where Li Hong passed.

The two of them exchanged letters several times a day, which caused several officials to be either dismissed or exiled to Jiling City every day, or promoted or transferred.

In short, Li Hong's uncharacteristical dismissal and promotion along the way made Yeyue and Hua Meng and others look frightened, what is this for?

You haven't returned to Chang'an yet, the affairs of the court, after three years of leaving, I don't know what the situation is now, you have begun to rotate local officials on a large scale, if there are more of them, just one is personally appointed by His Majesty, or if it is related to other people in the royal family, when Li Hong returns, this is not a trivial matter.

Li Hong looked at Yeyue's worried look, pursed his lips disdainfully and said: "It stands to reason that after I spent the first year in Shule City, I should return to Chang'an non-stop, but I have been grinding until now, which makes the father and emperor in the Daming Palace, who has been shouting that he will personally participate in spring ploughing this year, but because I did not return to Chang'an on time, I was entangled by the affairs of the court and delayed the major event of his personal spring ploughing, and I must not hold a grudge against me?" ”

"So you are replacing officials in such a high-profile manner, do you want to tell Your Majesty that you failed to return on time because you were delayed by the appointment and dismissal of local officials along the way?" Yeyue glanced at Li Hong.

I always feel that Li Hong's actions are like a child doing something wrong behind his parents' backs, afraid of being found out and scolded by his parents, so he took measures to ask for forgiveness in advance, hoping to escape responsibility.

"It's so smart, that's what I mean, after all, because of Princess Yan's incident, we can't rush back before the spring ploughing ceremony, so even if we rush back quickly, we will be scolded, so it's better to solve these things that will be solved after returning to Chang'an, so that my father and mother think that as soon as I Li Hong returned to Datang, I immediately threw myself into the intricate affairs of my Datang local government, I am on business, he can't scold me again because of business, right?" Li Hong spread his hands and said innocently to Yeyue.

Li Zhe rolled his eyes when he heard it on the other side, but after thinking about it, maybe this is indeed a good way for Li Hong to escape being scolded, no matter what, the queen mother will definitely not scold him because of this.

After the beginning of spring, nature is the season of recovery of all things, along the way the withered yellow branches also with the pace of Li Hong and others, began to gradually squeeze out the buds, the original withered yellow grass on both sides of the road, the bare yellow earth, also covered by the long grass.

By the time they arrived at Baqiao outside Chang'an City, the Yiyi willows by the Baqiao River couldn't wait to stretch out their pure green branches, covering the brown bark in winter, and greeted Li Hong and others happily.

Not far away in the field, the apricot blossoms have already bloomed, with a breeze blowing, falling like snowflakes, provoking the handsome men and women who are stepping into the green cheers, from time to time can still be heard, some literati and scholars, facing the splendid fragrance, are occasionally getting good sentences.

Officials at all levels of the East Palace, including the crown princess Pei Wanying and Bai Chun, all appeared in the procession to greet His Royal Highness the Prince, and the prince's chariot, honor guard, etc., were already waiting on both sides of the Baqiao, and the two little people who followed Pei Wanying and Bai Chun were opening their eyes wide at the moment, jumping to see their father immediately.

Although their father did not have any impression in their minds, they heard the word father from the mouths of the imperial grandfather, the imperial grandmother, the mother concubine, Aunt Bai and others every day, which also made them deserve to be instilled with the shadow of their father.

Although this image is very vague, although this father always appears in the quarrels between the imperial grandfather and the imperial grandmother, for some reason, at this moment, for the two little ones who have just turned five years old, they still hope to be able to see their so-called father immediately.

Moreover, the grand guard of honor that was now presented in front of the two of them was extremely rare for them.

This is something that they have never thought of in their young hearts, and they originally thought that no one in this world could put on such a big show except for the imperial grandfather and the imperial grandmother.

After all, when the mother concubine entered the palace every day, she was respectful to the imperial grandfather and imperial grandmother, and many, many people, no matter who they were, were very scared when they saw the imperial grandfather and the imperial grandmother.

"Will my father be afraid of the imperial grandfather and the imperial grandmother?" Li Ye grabbed Bai Chun's jade hand, and suddenly turned his head to ask his younger brother Li Ye next to him.

"Afraid, aren't you afraid?" Li Ye turned his head and was stunned for a moment, replied uncertainly, then tilted his head and thought for a while, and asked Li Yedao: "Is my father the eldest or the emperor's uncle?" ”

"When my father was the crown prince, and when my uncle was the king, I should ...... It should be about the same size. Li Ye was also unsure, tilting his head to look at Li Ye.

"Then if I snatch Li Chongrun's toys again, if Uncle Ying scares me again, will my father care? Will you protect me like the imperial grandfather and grandmother? ”

"I really don't know how to be ashamed, every time you bully Li Chongrun and them, when did the imperial grandfather and imperial grandmother protect you? It's not all about spanking you and reprimanding you, you let your mother go to the palace to get you a few times, and every time your mother is implicated by you, and you have to be reprimanded by the imperial grandfather and imperial grandmother. Li Ye grimaced at him and retorted by exposing Li Ye's lies.

"It's fake to beat me, it's true to protect me, when did you see the imperial grandfather and imperial grandmother ask me to return the stolen toys to Li Chongrun and them? It's not all ...... By the way, if you get into trouble in the future, don't let my mother go to the palace to lead me, how about letting my father go? Have you ever seen your father reprimanded by the imperial grandfather and grandmother? Li Ye's eyes suddenly lit up, ignoring the mother concubine who was holding his little hand, he had already begun to move forward, still turning his head sideways and saying to the imperial sister Li Ye.

"The concubine welcomes His Highness back to Beijing." Pei Wanying's gentle voice carried a surprise that could not be concealed, looking at Li Hong, who had not changed much in front of her, and her eyebrows were full of eager salutes.

After Pei Wanying saluted, according to the system, the officials of the East Palace should salute to greet His Royal Highness the Prince, but obviously the East Palace at this time has a conflict with the system of the East Palace.

"Slave Bai Chun welcomes His Highness back to Beijing." Bai Chun seems to be frozen, what was it like three years ago, and what is it now, and in the eyes of Yeyue, it seems that Bai Chun looks younger than before, but the charming and amorous temperament on her body is getting more and more prosperous, even her Yeyue, she can't help but look at Bai Chun twice.

"Sons, Li Ye and Li Ye, have seen their father." After Li Hong saluted the officials of the East Palace and the Jingzhao Mansion, he turned his head and looked at the two villains lightly.

While he was looking at the two little guys, the two little guys also let go of Bai Chun and Pei Wanying's hands at the same time, and they were looking up at him with an inquiring, curious, slightly adoring, and eager gaze.
