The carriage made a few circles in the East Market, then got on the main road, and after a few more turns, left Chang'an City from the East Gate and drove into the distance.

After experiencing the initial confusion, Songtsen Gampo quickly regained his composure, and at the same time noticed the difference in sitting in the carriage, and began to look around curiously.

"Don't look at it, this is a carriage that will be custom-made from the overseer, and it's different from what you've done before." Lin Xiyao, who was sitting opposite Songtsen Gampo, suddenly spoke, gently rubbed his broken leg and said, "I don't know where His Highness is going to take you, but you'd better not try to provoke him, because I haven't seen him suffer since the day I met him." ”

"What do you think I should do? Get down on your knees and lick his shoes? Songtsen Gampo sighed: "I admit that it was indeed my lack of heart at the beginning, and I deserved such a punishment, but you have an old saying in Datang that 'killing people is not too much', but why did he Li Chengqian ......." ”

In the middle of speaking, Songtsen Gampo stopped, as if he felt that it was too embarrassing to say this in front of a small official with a broken leg.

Lin Xiyao smiled disapprovingly, seeing that he no longer spoke, he also looked out the window, looking at the scenery outside in a silent daze, until the carriage slowly stopped before he came back to his senses, and made a gesture to Songtsen Gampo: "Get off the car, don't let Your Highness wait for a long time." ”

Songtsen Gampo glanced at Lin Xiyao expressionlessly, and finally nodded in gratitude, and then got out of the carriage through the open door.

Outside the carriage was a busy construction site, Li Chengqian also got out of the carriage, and was standing on the side of the carriage and greeting other people who were transporting goods from time to time, looking approachable, seeing Songtsen Gampo beckoning and saying: "Since you got off the carriage, come here, you won't be so stingy and still angry, right?" ”

Songtsan snorted lowly, took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger in his heart that was provoked by Li Chengqian.

It is said that he should have exercised the ability to be indistinguishable from joy and anger after being in a high position for so many years, but for some reason, Li Chengqian's ability to provoke his anger is a problem that Songtsen Gampo cannot understand.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very compatible with these inferior people!" After walking to Li Chengqian's side, Songtsen Gampo provoked a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said with a prickly voice.

"In my eyes, they are the loveliest people in my Datang, and it is an honor to be able to associate with them. When you can really understand the meaning of this sentence, when will Hongu kill you! ”

Li Chengqian did not go toe-to-toe with Songtsen Gampo this time, and his tone of voice was very flat, as simple as asking the other party if he had eaten it. However, Songtsen Gampo had no doubt about the authenticity of his words, the corners of his mouth twitched, and a sense of humiliation once again appeared in his heart.

It turned out that he had never been regarded as a real opponent by the other party, so he would let himself wander around Chang'an City, and even forbade himself to contact those families or nobles.

In some ways, Songtsen Gampo felt that he had been hurt a lot, far more serious than what Li Chengqian had just said in the teahouse.

"Don't understand?" Li Chengqian glanced deeply at Songtsan Gampo, raised his finger and pointed to the clothes on his body and said: "Look at the clothes in this palace, every stitch and thread on them is from their hands; If you look at the carriage you've been in, even the smallest nail on it wasn't built by Hongu himself. ”

"The reason why my Datang can be so strong and prosperous is because of these simple people, who use their meager strength to support the Datang country, if there is no them, my Datang is rootless duckweed."

"But you say that they are inferior, and do you know that without these inferior people, you would have no food to eat, no clothing. As a high-ranking person, you must know gratitude and be grateful to the world, otherwise you will only be a moth lying on the people to suck blood. ”

Songtsen Gampo was silent, he knew that what Li Chengqian said was right, but while understanding these truths, he knew that he couldn't do it at all. So his curiosity about Li Chengqian became even heavier, and he wanted to find out what kind of person this Tang prince was.

Seeing that the way he greeted those people didn't seem to be fake, it was completely from the heart, and the people didn't mean to stop when they saw him, most of them were arching their hands, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would continue to drive their own way.

This is impossible to exist in Tibet, and even those families or nobles in Chang'an City can't do this.

Looking at the only few people around him, Songtsen Gampo knew that these people were mainly escorting themselves, not guards, and the only one who could really be called a guard seemed to be the person who was dressed as a man who followed Li Chengqian and did not leave an inch.

How dare he, how dare he come to the suburbs alone so boldly, how dare he stand in the middle of countless passing people, is he not afraid of being assassinated?

Of course, looking at the warm greetings of the people around him, Songtsen Gampo knew that the assassination was impossible, but he still couldn't understand why Li Chengqian would be so bold, wasn't he afraid of what happened?

"Let's go. Walking with the main palace is regarded as the main palace giving you a ride. Seeing that Songtsen Gampo did not speak, Li Chengqian raised his hand to invite him.

What does it mean to just 'give you a name'? Do you want to choose a place in front of you to kill yourself? Songtsen Gampo hesitated.

He really didn't understand Li Chengqian, and the tone of his speech didn't look like he was going to kill someone at all, but every word he said gave people the feeling that they would take someone's life at any time.

But fortunately, Songtsan has also experienced some storms in Tubo, and he still has some tolerance for this kind of boundless threat, and his doubts are only for a moment, and he was quickly pressed down by him, and followed Li Chengqian's side.

"What is being built in front of you is the first railway in Datang, and it is also a road that allows Datang to take off, and you are the first person who is fortunate enough to witness a foreign country." While walking towards the construction site not far away, Li Chengqian introduced it, and at the same time did not forget to point out to Songtsen Gampo.

However, Songtsen Gampo no longer cared about listening to Li Chengqian's next future prospects, and the thick steel rails made him feel the strength of Datang.

It was solid steel, and it could have been used to make the best swords, but now it had been paved to the ground and turned into a road, an 'iron' road forged of steel.

Whether it was the Tang Emperor or the crown prince in front of him, Songtsan didn't think that there were fools among them, but if they weren't stupid, why would they spread such a good thing on the ground? Could it be that Datang is really rich enough to waste steel at will? nt
