Chapter 1140 The Night Party Comes to the Old Man
Guo Ye came out of the palace and went to Jiangxia Palace.
He met Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, in the palace, and presented him with the oral message of His Majesty Li Er.
Regarding His Majesty Li Er's forgiveness of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Daozong was not much surprised. After all, he worked with Li Shimin, who was the king of Qin when he was with the eldest grandson Wuji, and he couldn't talk about the eldest grandson Wuji. And he knows very well that the emperor and the empress have a very strong relationship with each other, and the emperor is even more dedicated to the empress, so he also thinks that the emperor will open up to the eldest grandson Wuji sooner or later, it is just a matter of time.
However, he was still quite surprised that the emperor would take back Chen's order, restore the title of Duke of Zhao to the eldest grandson Wuji, and give back the holy oracle of the Duke of Zhao's mansion.
It was surprising that the emperor, who had always been rigid and self-serving, would take back Chen's life so easily and give these glories back to the eldest grandson Wuji.
Li Daozong followed Li Shimin when Li Yuan's father and son rebelled in Taiyuan, and later served in Li Shimin's Qin King Tiance Mansion, so he knows Li Shimin very well as the current Ninth Five-Year Honor.
Li Shimin has always been the same in his eyes, and the words he says are like water spilled out, and he has never had the habit of taking it back. Especially the holy decree of the eldest grandson Wuji, who told the world to dismiss officials and cut off the lords and expel them from Chang'an, in Li Daozong's mind, it was impossible for the emperor to take back Chen's life, which not only affected the authority of his golden mouth, but also made him, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, lose face. It is no secret that the emperor cherishes face and reputation the most.
But he still underestimated the weight of Guo Ye in Li Shimin's eyes, but he didn't expect that the inconspicuous hairy boy back then, the bastard boy who cheated himself fiercely back then, turned into a big tree with full wings, and was able to influence the decision of the saint today.
He is not a fool, since the Holy Lord can let Guo Ye to convey this will to himself, then it must be Guo Ye who played a role in it, allowing the emperor to take back Chen's order and give back the title and mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji.
Li Daozong secretly contrasted, he firmly believed that it would be absolutely difficult to be like Guo Ye and make the emperor willingly make a decision that violated his original intention.
Not to be underestimated!
Guo Ye is no longer the former Ameng, and he must not be underestimated!
Soon, Li Daozong's heart not only no longer underestimated Guo Ye, but on the contrary, he added up to Guo Ye's courtesy.
not only frequently asked the people of the palace to add water to Guo Ye's tea, but also put down his previous figure and chatted with Guo Ye.
However, he is very smart, as smart as a businessman, and he does not talk to Guo Ye about things like current affairs in the court, but about wind. The matter of Hua Xueyue is also in line with Guo Ye's appetite.
Li Daozong's purpose in doing this is tacitly understood, it is nothing more than that he doesn't want Guo Ye to feel that he is a dignified Jiangxia king who is suspected of clinging to sycophants and becoming a popular magnat, otherwise this will be too low.
After talking for a while, Li Daozong saw that it was getting late, and was about to open his mouth to invite Guo Ye to stay overnight.
Who knew that Guo Ye got up and refused to leave, pretending that he had just given a son before the month, and his good wife was confined after giving birth, so it was not suitable to stay in other people's houses. Regardless of the affection of Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, he left the Jiangxia Palace, got into his own carriage and left the imperial city, and walked to Suzaku Street.
He made an excuse to insist on leaving, not because he hated Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, but in fact, Li Daozong was still okay in his impression, at least he had cheated Li Daozong back then, and won the Changle Fang in his hand.
The reason why he was reluctant to spend the night in Jiangxia Wangfu was because when he led his eldest grandson Wuji into the palace today, he received a letter of submission at his home, and a stranger came to his house to meet him and submitted a letter.
This stranger is nothing more than an idler in the city who specializes in running errands and delivering letters.
After letting his subordinates give a little broken silver and send away the idler, he opened the letter and read it, and was immediately shocked, it was the old man!
If it weren't for the fact that he was going to attend the birthday banquet of Empress Changsun, he would have gone to see the owner of the letter according to the address left in the letter. However, the birthday of Empress Changsun was not delayed, and he could only put aside the matter of the deceased's letter for the time being.
At present, after participating in the birthday banquet of Empress Changsun, he has completed the tasks assigned by His Majesty Li Er, fulfilled the original promise for Changsun Wuji, and finished meeting Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, to convey the will of His Majesty Li Er.
Naturally, he drove out of the imperial city to meet the old man who sent someone to surrender for a while.
According to the address left on the letter, he asked the groom to drive along Suzaku Street, then turned into a small alley, and finally because of the curfew at night, the groom showed the waist sign of the Pingyang County Mansion and successfully entered Luoshuifang.
Luoshuifang is different from the Taiping Fang where Guo Ye lives, it is also different from the Pingkang Fang where the night is singing, and it is different from the Chongren Fang of the office of the state capital in Chang'an, it is one of the few Li Fang in Chang'an City for the poor to live, which is commonly known as the slum.
You must know that now is the Tang Dynasty Zhenguan period, the first peaceful scene of Zhenguan's prosperous era has appeared, although it is not enough to talk about every household, not to mention that every household has hidden gold, but at least the people of Chang'an City, the people of the imperial capital have passed the well-off level, it is definitely not bragging.
As a result, slums like Luoshuifang are rare. Almost all of the people living in Luoshuifang belong to the people of Chang'an who live below the level of food and clothing. In the next generation, they can basically meet the standard of receiving subsistence allowance.
Therefore, the people living in Luoshuifang are either engaged in the business of begging for food during the day, or doing the work of pouring night incense and collecting dung at night.
The presence of the carriage of the dignified Pingyang County Mansion in Luoshuifang also shocked the night guards who were responsible for guarding the gate of Luoyangfang.
Guo Ye motioned to the groom to explain to the night watchman, telling them not to make noise and alarm others.
Then continue to let the groom drive the carriage and shuttle through the small alleys in Luoshuifang.
After a while, the carriage stopped in front of a small courtyard with a dilapidated earthen wall.
Guo Ye got out of the carriage and saw that the wooden door of the small courtyard had already rotted to the ground, and the middle door was wide open.
And there is not even a lantern to guide the way outside the courtyard, if it were not for the fact that there is still a crescent moon hanging in the Tianshan Mountains today, I am afraid that it would have been pitch black and I would not be able to find the door to enter the courtyard.
The groom immediately lit the lantern for Guo Ye, and was about to lead the way to take Guo Ye into the hospital, but Guo Ye stopped him and said: "You don't have to go in, just wait outside the hospital, give me the lantern, and I'll go in by myself." ”
The groom is an old man in the county mansion, and he is loyal to Guo Ye, and said with some concern: "My lord, let's go in with the little one, not to mention the pickled inside, and it is black, in case the adults are ...... inside."
"You're thinking too much."
Guo Ye stretched out his hand to take the lantern in the groom's hand, and said with a smile: "I can break through thousands of troops and horses, do I still have to be afraid of such a small broken courtyard?" Besides, today I am an old man from the night party, where is there any accident? Don't worry, I'll just go in by myself, and you'll wait for me outside. ”
After that, Guo Ye put the lantern in front of him, and slowly walked into this dilapidated courtyard that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time by the orange candlelight scattered by the lantern......
