Chapter 36 Luoyang, Luoyang

As soon as the news of Li Xi's killing of Ling Qian Chang in Weinan County came out, the ancient carvings caused huge repercussions in the Guanzhong areas such as Jingzhaofu and Xiazhou, and these places are all areas that will inevitably be involved in the rebuilding of the Guangtong Canal, that is to say, in the current situation that the rebuilding of the Guangtong Canal has begun, the officials in these places are going to directly communicate with the Jianghuai transfer envoy where Li Xi is located.

Whether it is said that the rabbit died and the fox was sad and hurt, or that it was disgusted with Li Xi's atrocities, in short, after the news came out, the officials in these places suddenly became panicked, and Wei Yue continued to travel east after inspecting the preparations of Weinan County, and what was ushered in was the policy of non-cooperation and non-opposition of the officials in various parts of Shaanxi. Even some officials who were Gengjie dared to question Wei Yue in public, and for a while, the hearts of the people in the land of Guanzhong fluctuated, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was one stone that stirred up a thousand layers.

Although this has brought great trouble to Wei Yue's work, I have to say that with Qian Chang's example in the past, although the officials in various places have some things that hurt them, but after all, Li Xi's reputation as a hot hand has been played out all of a sudden, and the local officials are intimidated by Li Xi's prestige, although their attitude is extremely negative, but no one dares to openly sing against the Jianghuai transfer envoy.

Moreover, at this time, with the news of Chang'an, Emperor Xuanzong acquiesced in Li Xi's hot hand, and the Criminal Department officially told the world that Qian Chang's crime should be punished, and then, the prince's guest Cui Wei was moved to the left as the county magistrate of Weinan County because he repeatedly asked the emperor to track down Li Xi's killing of Qian Chang, which completely suppressed the local officials.

In this case, the emperor has already made it clear that he fully supports Li Xi's misdeeds, and even among the local officials, no matter how bold and energetic they are, "they simply do not dare not cooperate with the office of the Jianghuai transfer envoy."

After this incident, all the relevant people have already understood that for Emperor Xuanzong, the current matter of Cao Yun is the biggest thing in the world, "For Cao Yun, he will use the greatest strength to support the Jianghuai Transit Envoy and support Li Xi, all those who dare to do it against the Jianghuai Transit Envoy will belong to the crime against the wind, no matter what measures Li Xi takes, he will absolutely support it!"

Just imagine, Li Xi has the power to take the life and death of officials of the fifth grade and below, and with the absolute support of Emperor Xuanzong, then locally, "the power in his hands is greater than the sky, and who would be stupid enough to be disrespectful to him?"

Unconsciously, the wind direction began to slowly deflect again, and even Wei Yue had an obvious feeling: whenever he went to a place, the local government was always accompanied by the chief official to inspect "the attitude was respectful, and the situation of slacking off in the places that Jingzhao Mansion had encountered and not taking the tasks assigned by the Jianghuai Transshipment Envoy Department seriously, had not even appeared once.

It can be said that after this series of dazzling and thrilling incidents, local governments at all levels quickly put their attitudes in a correct manner and put the preparations for the rebuilding of the Guangtong Canal in the most important position. And with the wealth of the Tang Guanzhong "with the ability of the Tang officials during the prosperous period of the Kaiyuan Dynasty", it is necessary to prepare such as people's husbands, cattle, horses, livestock, and carriages, etc., but it is naturally difficult to wait for idle things.

Therefore, "in the last few days of the first month of the twenty-second year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, as the phenomenon of ice and snow melting began to appear in various places", it means that the earth and rivers are about to thaw in winter, and the audience began to be busy everywhere.

Personnel allocation, cattle, horse and vehicle distribution, sectional construction and other work, under the overall arrangement of Wei Yue and Chen Qingzhi, have been fully arranged. As soon as all localities are fully thawed, the project of rebuilding the Guangtong Canal will begin in an all-round way.

At this time, on February 2, Emperor Xuanzong officially promulgated the edict of the Eastern Tour, with Zhongshu Shilang, Tongping Zhangshi Zhang Jiuling, the Ministry of Servants Li Linfu, the Imperial Historian Li Shizhi and others accompanying the Holy Driver to the east, with the crown prince Li Hong, Huangmen Shilang, Tongping Zhangshi, Jingzhao Mansion Yin Pei Yaoqing, and Taifu Temple Secretary Yang Chongli and others to stay in Xijing.

On the same day, the Son of Heaven drove Xingqing Palace, with the prince Li Hong, Huangmen Shilang Pei Yaoqing as the 100 officials sent to the east of Baqiao, and the next afternoon, the car arrived at the east gate of Chang'an, Xinfeng County, Jingzhao Prefecture.

According to the original agreement, the Jianghuai transfer envoy will be Zanshi Wei Yue, and the transfer envoy Yang Shenqiao will stay in Chang'an, of which Wei Yue will be responsible for rebuilding the Guangtong Canal together with Chen Qingyi, the young Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and Yang Shenyu will be responsible for handling the daily affairs of the Jianghuai transfer envoy, as well as the liaison with the major yamen in Chang'an, etc. In addition, several envoys will also remain behind.

And Li Xi led the praise Li Yifeng, the chief secretary Liu Rong, and the governor Yang Zhao and Chang Feng to leave Chang'an for Luoyang, except for Chang Feng, everyone else had to go to Sanmenxia with Li Xi to inspect Sanmenxia, and then go to Luoyang.

After arriving in Luoyang, he will be responsible for sorting out several large warehouses in the north and east of Luoyang to prepare for the future storage and transshipment of grain. After inspecting Sanmenxia and arriving in Luoyang, Li Yifeng will represent Li Xi to go south along the Caoyun Road, inspect the river conditions along the way, and prepare for Li Xi's southward journey.

On February 5th, Li Xi and Yang Shenxu waited for the holy car in Weinan County, and also saw Li Yifeng, Liu Rong, Chang Feng and others, after everyone closed the door and Li Xi arranged a specific division of labor, early the next morning, Li Xi and others followed the holy car to continue eastward, until they passed Tongguan before slowing down, inspecting the local transportation situation, and then going to see the three doors of the world with their own eyes, and Yang Shenxu turned directly back to Chang'an City, at the same time, after learning that Princess Yuzhen did not go to Luoyang with the car, Li Xi also asked him to bring a letter to Princess Yu Zhen.

Although the officials who went to Luoyang were only a few after all, the team of Emperor Xuanzong's eastern tour still seemed extremely large, such a huge team, extremely testing the local reception capacity, fortunately, after Emperor Xuanzong ascended the throne, there had been more than one such eastern tour, so the local people were not in a hurry.

From Weinan to Zheng County, less than two hundred miles, the car drove for two days, which was naturally a little depressed for Li Xi, who had official business waiting to be handled, so after arriving in Zheng County, they immediately left the team of the car driver and continued to travel east.

On 10 February, Li Xi, Li Yifeng, Liu Rong, Yang Zhao and others were the first to arrive at Tongguan and "carefully inspected this key site." In the past few years, because the Weishui water is shallow, and the water level changes greatly with the different seasons, it is unbearable to load the transport vessels, so after entering the Jingzhao Mansion, Tongguan is the place where the waterway is changed to land transportation is in the north of Tongguan, the west of Fengling Pass, is known as the Yongfeng warehouse of the first warehouse of Weishui.

Because there has been a shortage of grain in the Guanzhong area over the years, although the scale of Caoyun is not large, but after all, it has been in progress, so the storage facilities on the side of Yongfeng Cang are well maintained, at least Li Xi feels that after seeing it, this warehouse almost does not need any repair, and it can be put into large-scale use immediately.

On February 9, Li Xi and others had already gone to see the starting point of the Xinguangtong Canal in the design, that is, the confluence of the three rivers where the Xinguangtong Canal would meet with Weishui and Luoshui, and now they had seen Yongfengcang, so in Li Xi's opinion, the matter related to Jingzhaofu on the road to Caoyun could already be completely handed over to Wei Yue and Chen Qingzhi.

Wei Yue has been in the household department for many years, has always been in charge of Caoyun, he is extremely enthusiastic about the matter of Guangtong Canal, and also has sufficient technical preparations, although Chen Qingzhi has been an errand official in the Shouwang Li Qing's mansion over the years, but the reason why he can become the head of Shouwang's mansion shows that his ability must be not bad, other don't believe it, at least for Emperor Xuanzong's vision of choosing talents, Li Xi still trusts, he will not choose an incompetent long history to throw to his son.

Therefore, Li Xi was extremely relieved to give them the matter of rebuilding the Guangtong Canal.

It took a whole day to walk back and forth between Tongguan and Yongfengcang, and when he returned to the official post at Tongguan, he got the news that Emperor Xuanzong's car had just arrived in Huayin, so Li Xi decided not to wait for the car to drive and continue to travel east tomorrow.

Out of Tongguan, it is the mountains and rivers in the surface, and the so-called solidity of Yin Han in ancient times refers to the easy to defend and difficult to attack in the large mountains east of Tongguan and west of Luoyang. This part of the road is very difficult to walk

It took five days of hard work for Li Xi and the others to finally see the danger of the three doors.

The Yellow River crosses the Tongguan Pass and flows eastward for 200 miles, that is, to this place. Sanmen Canyon, the two banks are sandwiched with water, the wall stands thousands, the strange rocks are craggy, the terrain is dangerous, there are two stone islands in the middle of the river to divide the annual water into three strands, respectively called "human gate", "ghost gate", "god gate", so it is called "Sanmen Gorge". The pillar is facing the three gates, the river water grabs the door and comes out, rushes straight to the pillar, and then diverts the pillar to pass through, so it is called "the mainstay".

Standing on a steep road dug out by the hand in the middle of the mountainside on the south bank of the river, watching the turbid yellow river surging below, but it was directly split by the pillars, and the collision between the river and the stone pillars not only stirred up a huge white 1ang flower, but also brought a deafening huge roar.

Seeing the terrifying waves up and down the river with his own eyes, not to mention scholars such as Li Xi and Liu Rong, even high-skilled characters such as Gao Sheng and Li Guangbi couldn't help but change color and sigh.

Li Guangbi walked to Li Xi's side, pointed to the pillar below, and shouted loudly into Li Xi's ear: "My lord, according to what I heard from these local people when I passed by here, every year, this big stone pillar alone kills at least 100 people!" This river is not just a ghost gate, it is simply a place to ask for your life! ”

Li Xi turned his head to look at him and nodded with a heavy face.

This is not only known by the local people, nor only by warriors like Li Guangbi, who care about the national economy and people's livelihood, but in fact, including Li Xi, many officials in the DPRK and China also know it, but it is useless to know.

Shuzhou is the land of abundance, the price of grain is low, needless to say, it is Luoyang and other places, because it is very convenient to get rice grain from Hedong Road and even Jianghuai, therefore, although Luoyang is the eastern capital, the price of grain is not high, a stone of rice is only more than 200 yuan, if there is a good year, Jianghuai's rice grain down after arriving in Luoyang, the price of rice can even fall to a stone of rice is not worth 200 yuan.

However, the grain price in Chang'an often maintains more than 400 yuan per stone of rice, and sometimes, such as last year, the continuous rain in the Guanzhong area for a whole year directly affects the harvest of crops, which also leads to higher grain prices.

If the road is not smooth, the grain price in Chang'an will remain high, and the high grain price will make great profits.

From Luoyang to Chang'an, it is the main grain route into Guanzhong, first by water and then by land, the freight is very high, but even if it is high, it is not worth mentioning in the face of this price difference of up to double or even more.

In the face of the danger of the three worlds, the imperial court has to take care of prestige, fear of the dead, fear of arousing public resentment and anger, and even afraid of being written into the history books for future generations to scold, so although everyone knows that Guanzhong is short of food, but the scale of Caoyun has always been not big, but the local businessmen will not be afraid of this, as long as the profit is enough, there is nothing in the world that they dare not do.

Because human lives are often involved, in addition to the official transportation, the government has been very strict with the large-scale transportation of grain into Chang'an by non-governmental organizations, but no matter how strict you investigate, there will always be some special people who can find a solution.

Among them, Luoyang Zhou is the largest private grain dealer.

As far as Li Xi knows, this Zhou clan went through the door of the crown prince Li Hong, while sending people to directly collect rice in Jianghuai and other places to organize transportation to Luoyang, while taking care of the official offices along the way, and at the same time they directly spent money to buy lives and shouted slogans to kill as long as they died on the way to transport grain, how much is a life, and then they transported grain to Chang'an on a large scale. Even, it is said that their Zhou family's grain can also be temporarily stored in the warehouse of the government along the way, so to speak, the road is very smooth.

Of course, no matter how large the scale of Zhou's grain transportation is, when faced with the problem of feeding more than one million or nearly two million people in Chang'an, it still seems insignificant and extremely insignificant, except for filling it with human lives and earning a lot of money by taking advantage of Chang'an's high grain prices, the inhibitory effect on Chang'an's grain prices is almost impossible to see at all.

But even so, after all, they still transported the grain to Chang'an, and therefore, except for people like Li Hong who had special interests with them, there were still quite a few people in the DPRK and China who supported them.

According to Pei Yaoqing, a few years ago, there were even people who simply suggested that the mouth of the folk grain transportation should be completely liberalized, but fortunately, Emperor Xuanzong knew very well about the bloody process of transporting grain, and he didn't want to leave a reputation for eternity, so he immediately withheld this recital, and since then, this discussion has gradually dissipated.

Since he has built the Jianghuai Transit Envoy Yamen, since he has been appointed as the deputy Jianghuai Transit Envoy and has taken charge of the Cao Yun stall, Li Xi naturally hopes that this bloody road will stop, but he also understands in his heart that as long as the Cao Road is not smooth for a day, as long as the grain price in Chang'an does not fall for a day, there will always be someone to do this business.

Maybe he can knock out the Zhou family, and even in this way, he can take a financial path that has broken off the crown prince Li Hong, but if the Zhou family is defeated, there will be Li family, Wang family, Zhao family and the like.

Therefore, there is not much need to do this kind of thing that treats the symptoms but does not cure the root cause, and is easy to cause controversy.

Speechlessly, looking at the rapids below, as well as the boats that occasionally flashed into his eyes that were undulating or going up or down in the rapids, watching them avoid the three natural dangers under the impact of the turbulent current, Li Xi was speechless for a long time.

Then, he turned around, looked at the people behind him, pointed to Sanmenxia behind him, and said loudly: "When I was in Chang'an, Pei Xianggong and Wei Yuewei both said that it would be difficult to build a section of Cao Canal to replace these three natural dangers!" But no matter how difficult it is, this period of luck, we must cultivate! ”

Everyone nodded solemnly when they heard this, Liu Rong looked down again, turned his head, he pointed to his feet, and then pointed to the north bank of the Yellow River, and said loudly: "The south is more dangerous than the north, in my opinion, we can first build a land route in the north, the water of this big river is very large, and the water flow is also very fast, I am afraid that the canal is not so easy to repair, with a land route, we can first bypass this section of the river and slowly find a way to repair the canal." ”

Li Xi nodded and agreed with his statement.

When he was in Luoyang, he discussed with Pei Yaoqing, Wei Yue, Chang Feng and others about repairing the Cao Canal to replace Sanmenxia, although Li Xi had not been to Sanmenxia at that time, but the prestige of Sanmen was still heard, so he had this proposal, but as soon as he said it, it was opposed by Pei Yaoqing and Wei Yue.

To build a canal on this section of the river is not as simple as building a canal in the Guanzhong area, because on this section of the river, the big river has just left the plateau, and it is when it is rushing down, and the water flow is very turbulent. Even if the canal is repaired, the amount of water and the flow of water will still be uncontrollable: if the Yellow River is large, the water of the canal will be turbulent; When the Yellow River is in water, the canal will dry up, and in the end, the boats will still have to go through the three gates.

However, when Li Xi saw with his own eyes the dangerous scenes below, he still decided that this canal must be repaired.

If there is a problem, you can try to solve it, there is no way to think of a way, even if you really can't think of a good way, you have to repair it, repair the canal, even if there will still be problems like Pei Yaoqing and Wei Yue said, but at least, when people go through three more doors, the danger will still drop by more than half.

When the water of the Yellow River is large, the water flow in the canal is also turbulent, but at least the channel is fixed and the water flow is stable.

When the Yellow River was in water, the water level in the Cao Canal was not enough, of course, it was abandoned, but at that time, the amount of water in the Yellow River also changed a lot, and the water flow was not so turbulent, and when the boat went through the three gates, the danger was also reduced.

Therefore, standing halfway up the mountain with his waist crossed and thinking for a long time, he still waved his hand, "Repair!" Cao Canal and land routes have to be repaired at the same time, after repairing back, they will go to the Ministry of Industry to ask for a plan, the court has raised those masters, but it is not for nothing, to overcome such natural dangers, they must stand up and help! ”

…………………………………………………………………………

In the next few days, Li Xi and his people visited, inquired, investigated, and measured in Sanmen, carefully deliberating about the construction of the Cao Canal and the land route to replace the dangerous road in Sanmen, until February 27, after staying at Sanmen for 13 days, they left Sanmen with exhaustion and continued to walk east.

At this time, Emperor Xuanzong's chariot was only three days away from Luoyang.

On March 2, Emperor Xuanzong arrived in Luoyang by car, so far, Emperor Xuanzong and the officials accompanying the court have already been exhausted by the journey, so after the short excitement of the car into the city, although the entourage in the yamen of each yamen are busy cleaning the yamen of Luoyang, but the people are sleepy and the horses are lacking, Luoyang City is not lively because of the injection of a large number of people. It wasn't until after March 5, as everyone rested for a few days and gradually rested, that Luoyang City suddenly became lively.

On March 7, Li Xi and his entourage also arrived in Luoyang. Because they had always sent people and horses to contact the Holy Driver along the way, when Li Xi and the others arrived in Luoyang, the governor sent Chang Feng to wait at the gate of Luoyang.

As soon as I arrived in Luoyang, I learned a good news.

Emperor Xuanzong personally ordered and gave Li Xi a mansion, which was located in Yongshoufang in the west

Although Luoyang is known as the eastern capital, and even in the era of Wu Zetian, there was a large-scale renovation and construction, but in terms of scale, in the end it is still much worse than Chang'an, moreover, the eastern tour of Luoyang is only a short-term expedient measure, since Emperor Xuanzong ascended the throne, after all, it is still based on Chang'an, so except for a few ministers, most officials in Luoyang are not even a place to stay. Many of the officials who traveled eastward with the holy car were arranged to live in temporary accommodations, which would be taken back immediately when they returned to Chang'an.

Among them, those who can be given to the mansion by Emperor Xuanzong himself, although there are only a handful of people in the Manchu Dynasty, but with the toes, it must be enough: only one or twenty people!

This kind of mansion given by Emperor Xuanzong himself will be immediately classified into the name of the individual and belong to the private property of the individual, even if he leaves Luoyang and returns to Chang'an in the future, the mansion is still personal and will not be recovered.

As far as Li Xi's status in the DPRK is concerned, this is definitely a favor.

Therefore, Li Xi had just entered Luoyang City, and immediately went to Luoyang Palace to thank him, although he did not see Emperor Xuanzong in the end, he still expressed his gratitude.

Then, Li Xi, who was extremely tired, went directly back to the mansion given by Emperor Xuanzong, anyway, the mansion was very big, so he simply let Li Yifeng, Liu Rong, Yang Zhao, Chang Feng and others also live in.

……………………………………………………………………

Luoyang, once renamed the Shendu, after Emperor Xuanzong ascended the throne, renamed Luoyang is also known as the Eastern Capital.

This is a city loved by Wu Zetian, during the Great Zhou Dynasty she established, Luoyang City has been overhauled many times, so don't look at the Tang Dynasty is Chang'an as the national capital, Luoyang is just similar to the status of Jinyang, it is considered to be a companion capital, and the scale cannot be compared with Chang'an, but in Luoyang City, there are many Tang Dynasty most.

First, the largest palace city in the Tang Dynasty was in Luoyang, named Luoyang Palace; Secondly, the largest palace in the Sui and Tang dynasties was in the eastern capital, called Qianyang Palace; Again, the largest market in the Sui and Tang dynasties was in the eastern capital, called Fengdu, and the eastern and western cities of Chang'an each occupied two places to visit, but the Fengdu city of Luoyang occupied the land of four squares: again, the largest royal garden in the Tang Dynasty was also in the eastern capital, "called Dongdu Yuan: and it has to be said that the highest palace building in the Tang Dynasty was also in the eastern capital, that is, the Ming Hall that had been burned down.

Therefore, Luoyang is really a city of extreme magnificence.

During the previous stay in Sanmen, Li Xi and others climbed the mountain and went into the water every day, and they didn't eat and drink well for so many days, and as soon as they rested a little after coming to Luoyang, they immediately showed their exhaustion. Therefore, after writing some memorabilia, Li Xi rested completely, and every day he did not care about anything other than the routine rush to ask for some news about the DPRK and China, as well as the progress of the construction of the Guangtong Canal in Guanzhong.

After resting at home for three days, in addition to still having sore muscles and bones, "my spirit gradually improved."

From the fourth day onwards, Li Xi would go to the Yamen of Chang'an every day to stay at the Yamen of the Jianghuai Transfer Envoy in Chang'an, and in the afternoon he would take two lieutenants around Luoyang City to see the special customs of the eastern capital of the Tang Dynasty.

When he came to Luoyang, Yang Zhao had already done it for him what he cared about the most.

Yang Huahua's uncle Yang Xuanjiao was serving as a Henan Governor in Luoyang City at this time, and was an official under Zheng Qipin. Not to mention that there are countless big officials suddenly pouring into Luoyang City right now, even in normal times, he, a Xiao official, is very inconspicuous.

But for Li Xi, this Yang family is of great significance.

Yingran definitely knew that Yang Yuhuan's classmates were not married, and even at this time, except for in Luoyang, their Yang family sisters were still famous, and basically no one knew the name Yang Yuhuan, but according to Yang Huahua, Yang Yuhuan is sixteen years old this year, and he has reached the age where he can marry.

As a historical idiot, Li Xi can't specifically calculate how old Sister Yang is or what year she married Shouwang Li Mao as a princess, but this time Emperor Xuanzong toured Luoyang in the east, and Shouwang Jiqing also came, and this alone was enough to make Li Xi's heart tremble.

Now that I have come to Datang, and I am fortunate to have crossed over before Yang Meiren got married, it is pure nonsense to say that Li Xi doesn't care about her!

Fortunately, at this time, Shouwang Li Qing had not changed his name to Shouwang Ji Mao, so if the name in the history textbook was not wrong, Li Xi still had time to think about it.

The day after coming to Luoyang, on March 8, Yang Zhao, as a clansman, had already gone to visit Yang Xuanjiao with gifts. According to what he said after he came back, Yang Xuanjiao was very surprised.

Although Yang Huahua is only one of Li Xi's concubines, even at this time, Li Xi has not officially married her, and she is not even a concubine, but after all, because of Yang Huahua and Yang Zhao, their Yang family has a relationship with Li Xi, a fourth-grade master, and thanks to his strength, Yang Chuang actually awarded the seventh-grade superintendent in a blink of an eye, which is one level higher than himself, who has been an official for half his life.

This alone was enough for Yang Xuan to come to Li Xi's door upside down.

Yang Xuanjiao is of medium stature, middle-aged, and slightly rich, but he is handsome, and a little rich not only does not make him look ugly, but makes him have a touch of elegance and roundness, and among middle-aged people, he can be regarded as a beautiful man.

Although Yang Huahua has not passed the door yet, in Li Xi's heart, she is already her own woman, so no matter how humble and polite Yang Xuanjiao is, Li Xi still treats him as a father-in-law in his heart.

Yang Huahua and Yang Yuhuan's sisters' father Yang Xuanyan died in Shuzhou at an early age to join the army, at that time, except for Yang Huahua who stayed in Shuzhou with her mother and waited to get married, the other brothers and sisters all went north with their uncle Yang Xuanjiao, and Yang Xuanjiao joined the army as a Shicao of Henan Prefecture, and they all settled down in Luoyang.

Yang Huahua's eldest sister Yang Yuyao has already been married, married to a local ordinary official family in Luoyang, her husband is called Cui Xun, the current record of Luoyang County, Henan Province, is an official from Jiupin. According to Li Xi's speculation, this Yang Yuyao should be the Korean lady among the three ladies who later shocked the sky.

After the New Year, Yang Huahua is already twenty-two years old, according to what she said at the beginning, it is not difficult for Li Xi to deduce that this eldest sister Yang Yuyao is already twenty-five years old this year, according to Yang Zhao, she and Cui Xun only have one daughter under their knees, and they are already six years old this year.

And Li Xi's calculation of the Mrs. Qin is named Yang Cao, also known as Yang Caocao, is Yang Xuanjiao's daughter, she ranks eighth among her brothers and sisters, only three months older than Yang Yuhuan, and she is also old this year.

In addition, Yang Xuanjiao also has two sons, named Yang Qi and Yang Zhu.

Yang Qi is the eldest son of Yang Xuanyu, the fourth among his brothers and sisters, twenty-one years old this year, he has married a wife and had children, but whether it is his eldest uncle Yang Xuanyan, his second uncle Yang Xuanyu, or his father Yang Xuanyu, they are not big officials who can give him grace, so he has never been an official, but just helped his father; Yang Zhu is the second son of Yang Xuanfu, ranked sixth, only eighteen years old this year, has already made a marriage, the other party is a local gentry in Luoyang, it is said that he will marry this year.

In addition to these people, Yang Xuanyu, the second eldest in Yang Xuanyu's generation, died early, and he also left two sons and two daughters in his hometown of Yanxiang, Yuzhou, but he had already cut off contact with Yang Xuanyan and Yang Xuanyu's brothers, so Yang Xuanyu never had the idea of taking his nephews and nieces over. Besides, he is just a xiao official under the seventh grade, and Luoyang is the eastern capital, although it is not as good as Chang'an, but compared to the locality, it can still be regarded as expensive, and he can't afford to take it over.

This time, the people who accompanied Yang Xuanjiao to visit were the brothers Yang Shu and Yang Zhu, and both of them can be regarded as beautiful men with good manners. It's just that for them, although Li Xi is young and is the man of his cousin Yang Huahua, he is in a high position after all, and in front of Li Xi, they shrink back and can't show their demeanor.

Yang Xuanjiao came to visit with his two sons, trembling, but after sitting for a while, he said goodbye and left, and Li Xi also promised them to visit Yang's house in person in a few days.
