Hearing the voice in her ears, Red Sleeves turned her head in surprise and looked over, although she had heard some rumors about His Royal Highness the King of Chu, what kind of poetry and the like. But as far as I know in the past few months, I feel that meeting is not as good as being famous, and there are many rumors that are untrue. In her impression, His Royal Highness the King of Chu seemed to be a little lazy, and he was definitely not a talented person, because she hadn't seen him study poetry and classics in the past few months. He didn't even go to the East Palace Academy, which the children of the royal family must attend, once. Can such a person write poems that make those great Confucians feel amazing? But when I heard this poem recited by Li Kuan at this time, I felt the deep meaning of the sentence 'people must not be discognizable'.

It's just that this poem is a bit like a praise for Emperor Yang of Sui? This is completely inconsistent with his identity, a prince of Li Tang who overthrew the Sui Dynasty and was able to sit in the world, but wrote a poem praising Emperor Yang of Sui, isn't this a bit like that. So Red Sleeves was surprised, what an unusual person!

Li Kuan didn't think that he had never had the consciousness of being a prince of a feudal dynasty, and felt in his heart that Emperor Yang of Sui was just eager to win, and tried in vain to complete what could be done in a few decades in just a few years. was in a hurry, burying the great rivers and mountains of the former Sui, and at the same time laying the groundwork for his own sad ending. Either way, the Grand Canal will play an invaluable role in the years to come. If it weren't for his eagerness to win, he would have conquered and extorted violently, making the people miserable, I'm afraid there would be nothing to do with Datang. Now perhaps sitting on the throne on the Jinluan Hall are still the descendants of the Yang family.

And the former Sui is not completely destroyed, there are still some people who are loyal to their old master. has been persevering, has been developing his own strength behind his back, waiting to be on the big stage of the world again. And even Li Er didn't dare to underestimate this force. At the beginning, there were also a lot of diehards under the command of Yang Lin, the former Sui backer, and after the death of Sui, these people either fell into the grass or went incognito, and no one could say when they would jump out.

The topic was far away, and then returned to the Jiuxianju Restaurant in Yangzhou, Li Kuan plagiarized a poem praising Emperor Yang of Sui. attracted the red sleeves to look sideways, and then raised objections, saying that this poem is in praise of Emperor Yang of Sui. Not suitable for Li Kuan.

"Why is this inappropriate, this poem seems to praise Emperor Yang of Sui, but in fact it is a self-alert, although it is undeniable that this Grand Canal is a good thing for thousands of years. But because of the water temple dragon boat. But it became a curse. It can be seen that the fall of the former Sui was due to its brutality and inhumanity, and it had nothing to do with the excavation of this canal. Li Kuan explained.

"But......" Red Sleeves wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Li Kuan.

"Don't talk about this now, it's ...... to drink" Li Kuan picked up the wine glass, the aged daughter was red, warm and moist into the throat, as smooth as silk, but after the belly, it was warm. Scattered to the limbs and hundreds of remains.

"The golden bottle of sake is ten thousand, and the jade plate is ten thousand dollars. I couldn't eat when I stopped throwing my cup, and I was at a loss when I drew my sword and looked around. Li Kuan thought about the purpose of his coming out this time, and the eldest grandson Chong, who didn't know when he would propose to marry Li Lizhi again, was a little bored in his heart, and it was difficult to open the situation! So I can't help but chant Li Taibai's "Difficult to Walk". It's just that he only remembers the first four sentences, plus the last sentence, 'There will be a time when the wind and waves will be long, and the clouds will sail into the sea'. Other than that, I can't remember the middle part. So I only recited these four verses, and then I drank another glass of wine. And with a sad face, although he is young, his mental age is not small, and this worry once again surprised Red Sleeves.

'This person, how can he seem to be a different person today, these beautiful poems don't want money, is it really a peerless poet? No, a verse like this would have been written by a lazy and debauched fellow. So the small cup in her hand was held to her red lips, but she was stupid.

"What's wrong? Drink and eat! And there are no outsiders. Li Kuan said that in this era of strict etiquette, maids are not allowed to eat with their masters, and only Li Kuan will let Tianxiang and Red Sleeves sit down to eat together when no one is around.

"Hmm!" Pressing the doubts in his heart, the red sleeves chewed slowly and ate the side dishes on the table, the red lips were soft, the small cheeks were chewed up and down, and the cherry mouth was sticky with oil, which looked very tempting. The plain hands are slender, holding the chopsticks, looking elegant and calm.

"I'm full!" Xiao Tianxiang put down the dishes, stood up and gave Li Kuanbu dishes, and the chopsticks picked up Li Kuan's favorite dishes on the table, and the waiter was very thoughtful, which the novice of the red sleeves couldn't do.

In the restaurant, after the three masters and servants had eaten, they got up and went downstairs and headed outside. Li Kuan was a little ashamed and a little excited in his heart, ashamed that he had made a copy of the text, but he didn't copy it all, only part of it, and he couldn't remember the rest, so he was a little embarrassed. Excitedly, Redsleeves seemed to have changed his attitude towards him a lot. Red Sleeves was born in the hidden school, growing up and in the dust, such an identity makes her vision very high, but she is very sensitive, and she is always vigilant for those who deliberately approach, and she is not eye-catching for those who have no real talent and real learning. So although this little girl has been Li Kuan's maid, she has never looked down on her master.

After experiencing this time, presumably in her heart, Li Kuan's image should have changed. Although Li Kuan doesn't care what most people think of him, the people around him still want to understand him, not like before Red Sleeves, when he is a deal, and the two sides just take what they need.

This time pretending to be B, Li Kuan felt that it still had some effect, but he didn't dare to guarantee whether there would be a recurrence in the future, this little girl's prejudice against him was a little deep. Because in the previous years, Li Kuan did not take the children of the military generals to Qujiangchi to drink, although because these little guys are still young, they can't do those things that are full of ups and downs, but mouth flowers are indispensable. So Red Sleeves has never treated Li Kuan very well, and even thinks that this is a vulgar guy. It is a difficult process to change the preconceived mind. Li Kuan is slowly reversing her image in the heart of Red Sleeves and letting her truly accept herself. Don't be in Cao Ying, and your heart is in Han. Li Kuan will not tolerate such an anti-bone boy, he is afraid that one day he will break with this delicate little girl. That's how hard it is.

After getting off the restaurant, Li Kuan walked around Yangzhou City, there is no curfew here, so at night, many people are still taking a leisurely walk, inviting friends to blow a cool breeze by the river. Drink two glasses. It is really a great pleasure in life, and Yangzhou City has developed commerce because of the convenience of water transportation. So a lot of merchants gather here, and they bring things from all over the world and sell them here to whoever wants them. Li Kuan's master and servant walked around the business district here and found a lot of interesting things. Like spices from the Western Regions. There is also glass and so on. These things were bought by Yangzhou merchants from the Hu merchants on the Chang'an side, and they were sold here again to earn the difference. Li Kuan is not interested in these things, they are interested in some local specialties in Yangzhou, which cannot be seen in Chang'an. So Tianxiang and Red Sleeves each bought a lot, and Li Kuan specially hired someone to help with the things.

Back at their boat, it was already the end of the unitary hour, and the stars twinkled in the night sky. There is also the waning moon on the horizon, accompanied by the sound of the rushing tide. made Li Kuan fall asleep.

After staying in Yangzhou for three days and equipping the necessary supplies, Li Kuan and the others set off again, this time to Xingyang. There is another big family with five surnames and seven wangs - Xingyang Zheng family. This family also has a lot of people in the Tang Dynasty, is the descendant of the great Confucian Zheng Xuan in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, although the background is only three or four hundred years, but because of the war in the Three Kingdoms period, this family took the opportunity to pull up a private army, which has been maintained until now. So it's also a behemoth, and the formal style of this family is very straightforward because it was in the midst of war when it was first established. If you want it, you can ask for it directly, and if you don't accept it, you will be convinced. Therefore, the place where they are entrenched is really resentful in the hearts of the people.

Li Kuan and the others came here quietly, this time, the painting boat did not drive in, but took a carriage, the horse pulling the cart is not much worse than Li Kuan's mount Chasing Yunlai, but such a carriage is not noticeable.

Not long after Li Kuan and the others arrived, Xingyang Zheng received a post from Chu Liuxiang, this time asking for a copy of the "Analects" annotated by Zheng Xuan, which was the original book written by Zheng Xuan and Confucianism during the Three Kingdoms period. The whole book is on silk silk, and there are countless classic commentaries. This book is the heirloom of the Zheng family, the root of life. It is precisely because of this "Analects" that the Zheng family dares to claim to be the descendants of Zheng Xuan's great Confucianism, otherwise who will buy your account, your surname is Zheng, and your ancestor is Zheng Xuan, so the surname Liu, the ancestors are all Liu Bang? Are all the people surnamed Gongsun the descendants of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor?

Therefore, Chu Liuxiang's post directly tore his face with the Zheng family, and the two sides can be said to be endless. This time, the Xingyang Zheng family learned the lesson of the Qinghe Cui family, and did not do any superfluous actions such as dropping the bag, and many of the messages between the five surnames and Qiwang were exchanged, and most of these families were in-laws, and marrying each other was already an old tradition for hundreds of years. Therefore, what happened before the Qinghe Cui clan has become a lesson for the Xingyang Zheng clan.

Hundreds of dead family members guarded the Zheng family's study in Xingyang that night, where the "Analects" that the Zheng family regarded as their life was stored. was about to transfer this scroll to another place, and at this time, Zheng Duo, the patriarch of the Zheng family, also appeared in this study, this time he made a special trip back from the capital, just to catch Chu Liuxiang and fight for their families. As long as this thief is caught, then not only will he keep the "Analects" left by his ancestors, but he will also take the opportunity to spread the signal that the Cui family is not as good as the Zheng family, and let his family become a leader. When compiling the "Clan Chronicles", because the host was the Cui family, the Qinghe Cui family ranked first, and then because Li Er was dissatisfied with the ranking, it was changed, but these families in the world did not accept the version that Li Er had changed, but believed in the version compiled by the Cui family.

The clans of the world, the Cui family is the first. This point is in all the big and small families of the Tang Dynasty, and the unimpeded pass is definitely timed, and the other families in front of this are all red-eyed. So this time there is a chance to tear off the Cui family and take the throne of his own family, and the head of the family ignores the troubled waters of the capital, just to make his own reputation. Because he is full of confidence, with these private soldiers of his own family, he will definitely be able to catch Chu Liuxiang. (To be continued......)
