Chapter 315: Meeting Yang Guang
"My Metropolitan Governor is here." Yang Guang was still very happy to see Li Xinli, I don't know why, Yang Guang liked Li Xin's expression in front of him very much, making him look more real, he was also surnamed Li, Li Yuan seemed more kind and respectful in front of Yang Guang, but Yang Guang just didn't like Li Yuan.
"Minister Li Xin pays a visit to His Majesty." Li Xin didn't dare to slack off, saluted Yang Guang, and said: "The minister is in the northwest, but he thinks about His Majesty day and night, and I wish His Majesty a safe body." β
"Well, this sentence sounds comfortable, come, come, let you see the new palace I will build in Biling." Yang Guang beckoned Li Xin with a smile and said, "Does Cheng Yuan know where Biling is?" β
"I guess it's in the south! There shouldn't be much to go from Yangzhou. Li Xin said while looking at the drawings in front of him, I have to say that the painting technology in this era is quite good, on the huge scroll in front of him, there are countless palaces painted, the scale is magnificent, Li Xin is amazed to see it.
"The general should understand the geography of mountains and rivers, you can't do it like you, and you will accompany me to the south of the Yangtze River when you have time in the future." Yang Guang said with a smile.
"The minister has long wanted to go to Jiangnan, if he goes by holy order, it will be the best." Li Xin didn't know if Yang Guang was doing this on purpose, or if he said it casually, but Li Xin still didn't want to reply without thinking, if Li Xin had the slightest doubt at this time, of course, there was nothing at the moment, and when Yang Guang reacted, the problem would be a big deal.
"Biling is located in the south of Yangzhou east three hundred miles, look at this palace around twenty miles, there are sixteen palaces, in the flow of Qushui, the mountain lake pool only sees, from the left of the Fangxia Pond, there are Liguang Palace, Liuying Palace, Zizhi Palace, etc., there are four cool halls here, around is flowing water, in summer. I live in these four halls, this is the Yuanji Palace, this is the Feiyu Palace, this is the Leaky View Palace, and this is the Jieqi Palace. Yang Guang proudly pointed to the drawings in front of him and said, "Basically, they are all designed according to Luoyang West Garden, but the square circle is smaller than that of West Garden." β
Li Xin nodded again and again, sighing slightly in his heart, the things on this drawing may be smaller than the West Garden, but the luxurious and luxurious Cheng DΓΉ is probably no less than the West Garden. The Sui Dynasty was wealthy. Li Xin has no doubt about this, not to mention that grain can be eaten for decades, even if it is silk cloth and so on, it is all spared on the Luoyang tree. It's just that it's rare to be as extravagant as Yang Guang, who is very good to himself, but extremely stingy with the soldiers, which makes Li Xin feel speechless.
"This is the most luxurious palace that the minister has ever seen, and the minister wants to see it now." Li Xin was scolded for a while, but his face was extremely happy.
Yang Guang was praised by Li Xin. I was even happier in my heart, waved my hand and said, "This time I went south to Jiangnan, you should go too!" It will also allow you to see my Piling Palace. β
Li Xin suddenly felt like he had hit his feet, but he still nodded. said: "Thank you for the emperor for giving the minister this opportunity." β
Yang Guang glanced at Li Xin seriously, saw that he was not fake, nodded, and said, "Recently, there have been rumors in the market. To say that you are a descendant of King Lanling, to say that you have a rebellious heart, is that I don't believe it. Now it seems, you're really good. β
"Your Majesty Xie trusts, if the minister is really a descendant of the King of Lanling, Tang Guogong will not marry his daughter back then." Li Xin was secretly shocked, but his face showed a wry smile and said.
"You're not bad now, I heard that Li Siniang gave birth to a daughter for you?" Yang Guang joked that Yang Guang himself had a lot of wives and concubines, and when he ascended the throne, he also did some ridiculous things, on the contrary, for Li Xin's habit, not only did not object, but he was also very happy, if Li Xin did not have any shortcomings, that is, a saint, how could Yang Guang allow his subordinates to become saints?
"Your Majesty also knows about this?" Li Xin showed a slight embarrassment, and said: "Your Majesty, this is not to blame the minister, the minister and Siniang back then can be regarded as wishful thinking, but the Tang Guogong saw that the minister's background was not good, so he beat the mandarin duck." β
"Okay, don't make a fuss about it. lest the Chai family not look good-looking. Yang Guang waved his hand, his face changed slightly, and said: "This time you are allowed to enter Beijing, it is to see that your heirs are thin, you are now the Duke of Liangguo, don't go to the northwest, stay in Beijing!" Would you like to? β
"The minister thanked His Majesty, and the minister had already had this thought." Li Xin said without thinking: "In the northwest, the minister can't stand the wind and sand, you look at the minister, I feel that I have been much older recently, and it is better to be in the Central Plains." β
"You're talking nonsense." Yang Guang's heart was also much calmer, and he suddenly asked again: "You are also familiar with the northwest, so tell me, after you leave, who can serve as the governor of the Western Regions?" Some people say that the children of the royal family are going to go, what do you think? β
"This, the emperor also knows, the minister is a military general, he only knows the battlefield, where the emperor points to, the minister will fight, the reason why the Western Regions have today is the credit of Pei Shiju, if the emperor asks about the war, this minister knows, if the emperor asks who can govern the Western Regions, the minister will not know. Since someone should shoot the children of the royal family, the minister thinks that the person who knows the children of the royal family best should be the emperor, and the emperor will send whoever he says. Li Xin's face showed embarrassment, and in the end he could only say helplessly.
"You're such a little slipper." Yang Guang glared at Li Xin dissatisfied, looking a little unhappy, but Li Xin still saw Yang Guang's satisfaction. That is, he thinks that Li Xin is not against it. This made Yang Guang very satisfied.
"Your Majesty, the minister just ran into Master Su Wei outside." Li Xin said with some hesitation: "He seems to look down on Weichen." β
"Hmph, not only does he look down on you, but even I am the same, I think I am an old minister, but he puts the shelf higher than mine." Yang Guang snorted coldly and said, "You will suffer some grievances in this matter." I have prepared a house for you in Zunhuafang, and you will live there during your stay in Luoyang! β
"Thank you." Li Xin knew that Yang Guang's summoning of him this time had been completed, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, no matter whether he was under house arrest now, at least there was no problem now, and his life could be guaranteed.
"By the way, Your Majesty, the minister once met His Royal Highness the King of Qi when he was in Ju County." Li Xin suddenly thought of something, and said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi has asked the minister about the matter of the northwest, could it be that His Majesty is preparing to let the King of Qi go to the northwest?" β
"He's going to see you? Also asked about the Northwest? Li Xin suddenly felt that Yang Guang's breathing was much heavier, and there was a trace of solemnity in the entire hall, which made Li Xin regret a little, and he shouldn't have said this.
"Yes." Li Xin swallowed and foamed.
"Go down first! Three days later, you can come too! Yang Guang did not get angry, but let Li Xin retreat. Yu Shiji personally went out.
"Shiji, what do you think of our Liangguo Gong?" After Yu Shiji sent Li Xin away, Yu Shiji returned to the main hall, and Yang Guang looked at Yu Shiji with a smile and said.
"He's a sincere person." Yu Shiji didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said.
"It's a sincere person, and because of this, I let him go, otherwise, no matter how powerful his martial arts are, I'm afraid he won't be out of this hall." Yang Guang waved his hand, Yu Shiji felt as if something was missing from his surroundings, he was slightly startled in his heart, lowered his head and didn't speak anymore.
"King Qi actually went to see Li Xin." Yang Guang laughed angrily and said, "Why didn't anyone report this matter, and how did he get so happy?" didn't sue sΓΉ me, it seems that these Guan Long families also learned from my father and emperor, and abolished me like the emperor of the previous dynasty was abolished. "When Yang Jian was able to ascend the throne, it was mostly the power of the Guan Long family, and everyone abolished Yang Jian's grandson together, which allowed Yang Jian to ascend the throne, and now Yang Guang also thinks that he will be such a fate, and at the same time he is angry, he also has some worries.
"Maybe the King of Qi wants to guard the frontier for the emperor." Yu Shiji naturally didn't dare to tell Yang Mian's conspiracy to rebel, before it happened, saying that these could only be the relationship between the emperor's father and son, if it happened, Yang Guang would not thank you, if it didn't happen, the matter would be even worse.
"Just like that, he still wants to guard the frontier, so don't raise troops to fight against me when the time comes." Yang Guang said disdainfully: "I see that this northwest land is still guarded by Li Xin and given to others, and I still don't feel at ease." β
"And this time?" Yu Shiji heard it clearly on the side just now, Yang Guang was ready to let Li Xin accompany him to Yangzhou, instead of staying in the northwest, could it be that he was just testing Li Xin just now? Yu Shiji felt that there was already a cold sweat on his back, beside the Son of Heaven, although he could enjoy the glory and wealth, but now it seems that no matter what he does, he must be careful, if he is not careful, his head may have to move.
"This is no conflict. Now there is Pei Shiju in the northwest, and there will be no big problems in the future, first let Li Xin accompany me to Yangzhou, and then let him go to the northwest, the newlywed Yan'er, I let him go to the northwest, and he didn't live a few days in the northwest, so he went to the Western Regions, and now the Western Regions is a situation of confrontation between Tiele and the Turks, which can barely be regarded as stable, Li Xin's general Li Jing is encircling and suppressing Tuyuhun, and the rest of the things are civil affairs, which has nothing to do with Li Xin's absence in the northwest. Yang Guang explained rarely.
"If General Li Xin knew the emperor's loving heart, he would definitely be grateful to Dade." Yu Shiji said with sincere appreciation.
"Those who are loyal to me, I will not hesitate to reward. Li Xin is an example, I am old, and I will need people like Li Xin to protect the country in the future, and my descendants will need Li Xin. Yang Guang suddenly thought of something, his face became much gloomy, and he said lightly: "Send someone to tell King Qi, don't leave the palace if you have nothing to do, Li Xinai is an important minister of the country, not something he can contact now." Forget it this time, if it's next time, let him go to the northwest to be a soldier! β
Yu Shiji showed a wry smile on his face, although he didn't know where King Qi was now, but he believed that King Qi was definitely not in Daxing now, but in Luoyang, and he didn't know where it was. (To be continued......)
