Chapter 1044: The Groom

Yang Yuhuan still trusts Li Tengkong very much, not because they have become close friends, but because Li Tengkong is pure, there will be no miscellaneous little ninety-nine, and it is naturally easy and comfortable to get along. Otherwise, just change someone and say this to her, Yang Yuhuan's absolute first reaction is disbelief and vigilance.

It's too much of a coincidence, isn't it, not long after Yang Yuhuan was in a dilemma here, someone on the other side told her that there was a 'paradise', no matter how you look at it, it was a deliberate temptation.

But if this was said by Li Tengkong, the convincing power immediately increased.

However, trust is trust, but it does not directly determine the final decision.

In the final analysis, although Yang Yuhuan has a lot of negative emotions, it has not yet reached the time of real despair, at least Li Longji's attitude is okay now, and he has not forced him to a dead end. Yang Yuhuan will not forget how uneasy she was when her father passed away and she was forced to leave Shuzhong, where she grew up, to come to Luoyang.

And now, it is indeed under the fence, but I still miss a little family affection, although I am more restrained, but it is not so uncomfortable to get along. In addition, she gradually grew up and even married a wife, which can be regarded as having a husband's family. Even if you are not familiar with Li Mao, and even faintly disappointed, if you get married, you are married, and the Tang Dynasty is open, but after all, it occupies the mainstream from the beginning.

Otherwise, you will also mess around, and I will too, this world will be messed up for a long time.

Therefore, whenever it is still possible, Yang Yuhuan is more willing to stay, choose a husband and children, and spend this life in peace.

As the days passed, Li Longji rarely took the initiative to summon Yang Yuhuan in the palace now, after all, there were many people, and there were many 'eyes' of Concubine Wu Hui. This kind of thing, of course, is better to hide.

Originally, it was the norm for Li Longji to go out of the palace in micro-clothes, just kidding, whether it was Chang'an or Luoyang, and Li Longji had never visited the Qinglou? Not to mention the Qinglou, it is the people's and even the officials' homes......

Forget it, don't mention it, it's just that kind of thing after all.

Concubine Wu Hui has long been accustomed to this, even if she knows, she will turn a blind eye, otherwise what else can she do, anyway, she can't stop it, as long as Li Longji has a lot of her favor, everything else is easy to say. However, it must still be uncomfortable, so over time, I simply stopped paying attention to it, so as not to feel uncomfortable.

And the person who can follow Li Longji to serve left and right must be the most trusted henchman, and he will never talk nonsense or other people's eyeliner, so that Li Longji is running Yang Yuhuan Here is really not much anyone knows. However, does Concubine Wu Hui really know anything?

Li Longji is not in a hurry, in fact, he rarely has a sense of freshness, or should he say a sense of love?

In the past, which beauty was valued, it was directly snatched, even if it was inconvenient, there were naturally flowers and birds to operate, and it could still be snatched after a while. And now, because he does have some scruples, and he is indeed very excited about Yang Yuhuan, even if he doesn't get Yang Yuhuan at all now, but that rare sense of admiration makes Li Longji addicted to it, is this, old and spring?

Thanks to this, Yang Yuhuan can barely cope with it, otherwise where would it be possible to support it for so long.

However, after Li Tengkong learned about this, he occasionally appeared in the Taoist temple seemingly unintentionally, and then behaved normally with a demeanor that didn't know anything. With outsiders present, even if Li Longji has a heart, he is not good at acting too direct, and he will leave soon, which makes Yang Yuhuan breathe a sigh of relief.

But it's okay to do this once in a while, if this happens every time, then Li Tengkong will inevitably be taken away by his thoughts, and in this way, the gains outweigh the losses.

Time passed, and time blinked to the twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan, that is, 736 AD.

This year can be described as a turning point in the prosperity of Tang Xuanzong's Kaiyuan Dynasty gradually declining.

Above the court, factional party strife is always indispensable, and the Tang Dynasty implemented a group system, that is, in the same period, there was more than one prime minister. As far as the current situation is concerned, there are three prime ministers, Pei Yaoqing, Zhang Jiuling, and Li Linfu, who was just promoted at the end of last year.

Among them, Pei Yaoqing is from Fanyang Zhang's family, a proper family representative, Zhang Jiuling is slightly worse, after Zhang Liang, the Marquis of the Western Han Dynasty, the fourteenth grandson of Zhang Hua, the prince of Zhuangwu County in the Western Jin Dynasty, said that it is a family, but it is far away, and even the family background is very average, it is worth mentioning that the 369 prime ministers of the entire Tang Dynasty, the northern nationality accounts for ninety percent, so Zhang Jiuling, who was born in the south, is the prime minister, which is very powerful. In general, Zhang Jiuling is relatively biased towards the poor, although he has a background, his conditions are also very average, and he can be regarded as a representative of the poor. As for Li Linfu, there is no need to ask, strictly speaking, he is also a relative of the Li family, his own family.

In this way, there is a taste of tripartite balance in it.

There's nothing wrong with that, the art of the emperor lies in balance, and this move should be said to be the most appropriate, but what about when this balance is broken?

In the same year, Li Linfu recommended the chief of the Shuofang marching army, Niu Xianke, which was strongly opposed by Zhang Jiuling, who thought that Niu Xianke was talentless, but he was a general, and how could he enter the center. So Li Linfu was very unhappy.

At this time, Li Linfu won deep trust, and under the open and secret fighting, in November, Zhang Jiuling and Pei Yaoqing were all dismissed. Niu Xianke was appointed as the Ministry of Industry Shangshu and Tongzhongshu Menxia Sanpin, and was in charge of the affairs of the province under the door. Well, in short, also the prime minister. And Niu Cyclamen has always looked at Li Linfu's horse, saying that the east does not go west, so that Li Linfu's power in the road officially opened. Since then, coupled with Li Longji's increasing greed for pleasure, the Tang Dynasty has gone downhill.

In short, there are more open and secret battles here, and things are far more than that, Concubine Wu Hui has entered a white-hot stage in order to compete for the position of the crown prince for Li Mao, and the situation is becoming more and more intense, especially after Li Linfu began to control the power of the court, Concubine Wu Hui's advantage is still becoming more and more obvious. You must know that these two people are allies, Li Linfu has risen all the way, but he has not been helped by Concubine Wu Hui.

Think about it, since Li Linfu is with Concubine Wu Hui, then Li Linfu is covering for Li Longji to meet Yang Yuhuan in private, will Concubine Wu Hui really not know?

A series of things, coupled with other government affairs, are also a headache for Li Longji. This also made Li Longji run more often to Yang Yuhuan. Even if he just said a few words in the past, he felt that his bones were a few taels lighter, and he couldn't say how comfortable he was.

As the saying goes, a good girl is afraid of being entangled.

Li Longji has always been well-behaved, and when he came over, he told his heart to show his haggard side, but it didn't work for a short time, and after a long time, it really made Yang Yuhuan relax his vigilance and sympathize a little, at least in his attitude, he no longer resisted as much as he did at the beginning.

But that's basically it, everyone is like Li Longji without taboos. Yang Yuhuan has not forgotten who he married, and what Li Longji's identity is. The attitude has eased to the limit, as long as the other party still has the intention of peeping at her, Yang Yuhuan will not really let down the last guard in his heart. That is, Li Longji has always been very honest during this time, which made Yang Yuhuan a lot more comfortable.

Perhaps, although the intention is intentional, it can be restrained or not?

Yang Yuhuan comforted himself like this.

So did Zhou Shaoyu really continue to watch? Of course not, it's still not in a hurry to come forward in person, but can you pave the way first?

On that day, Yang Yuhuan had just finished chanting the scriptures, and saw Li Tengkong walking in with a food box, and Yang Yuhuan immediately quipped: "You went to that senior again?" Always eat and take, but it doesn't bother you? ”

Li Tengkong rolled his eyes, hid the food box behind him, and said: "It's not to share it with you, but you don't appreciate it, and you have to joke with me, it seems that you don't want to eat, I will eat alone in the future." ”

"How can you, then, be a cultivator, and how can you fight for your desires? I'm helping you fulfill your Dao heart, and quickly take it out and open it to see, what is eating today? Yang Yuhuan quibbled, and said with some expectation.

That's right, the old rules! There is no more suitable way to treat a girl than to gradually win over with food, not to mention that it is better in this period, that is, it is the only one, and there is no place to eat at all. After a long time, afraid of not being raised?

Originally, Yang Yuhuan still had the heart to ask who the senior was, but Li Tengkong didn't say it, Yang Yuhuan would not entangle. It's always been the predecessor's senior, and I don't know who it is.

The two frolicked and ate delicious food together, and then Li Tengkong suddenly said: "By the way, the predecessors calculated a hexagram before, and said that the purple qi moved westward, I am afraid that Your Majesty will return to Chang'an soon, and I am afraid that you will have to go to Xijing together, so it is better to prepare earlier." ”

During the Kaiyuan period, Li Longji basically stayed in Luoyang, Tokyo a few years ago, but the reason is simple, that is, because the grain transportation problem in Chang'an has not been solved, which leads to the fact that Chang'an is prone to lack of grain.

"To Chang'an?" Yang Yuhuan was stunned, her childhood was spent in Shu, and then she has been living in Luoyang, as for Chang'an, it can be described as a strange tight, unfamiliar with life, it is inevitable to be worried.

Similar things have happened more than once, in addition to food, Li Tengkong will reveal some things that will happen in advance from time to time, and they are accurate every time, after a long time, Yang Yuhuan will no longer doubt the truth of the words, and subconsciously chose to believe that since the predecessors said that they were going to Chang'an, then it must happen.

Although it has the meaning of fooling, it is also a way to build trust.

Just when Yang Yuhuan was worried, Zhou Shaoyu also sighed. This time, it is definitely the longest time for him to hook up with a girl, if everything goes well, it will be next year at the earliest, that is, the twenty-fifth year of Kaiyuan to hook up Yang Yuhuan, in other words, it will take three years!

It's a shame that I can call the girls over now with nothing to do, otherwise it would be so boring to be so hard to even show my face.

In November, Li Longji, who had lived in Luoyang for 11 years, finally embarked on the road back to Chang'an.

This is not a simple trip, but represents a shift in the center of political power, not only the emperor and his concubines, palace maids, eunuchs, and janissaries. It also includes the Chinese military officials, and even their family members, who need to migrate there. Even if it is not concentrated in one place, some people have already begun to let relatives go over first, but on the day of Li Longji's trip, it can still be described as mighty.

It is conceivable how long the team can stretch.

Yang Yuhuan's identity is very special, she can be regarded as the princess of Shou or not, after all, she has become a monk. Then the question arises, should they follow the royal family in the procession, or should they follow the families of the hundred officials? Even, the transfer of troops directly attributable to the common people?

Of course, the common people here do not refer to the simple low-level people, but some wealthy businessmen and the like, Luoyang moved so many people at once, which means that business opportunities are transferred, and if you want to continue to make a lot of money, you naturally have to go to Chang'an to pave the way. After all, there is no problem in terms of safety, not to mention that the emperor's team is in front, these rich businessmen are also desperate for their lives, who can have some guards.

Obviously, Li Longji didn't want to link Yang Yuhuan with the royal family at this moment, and let Yang Yuhuan become a monk, in addition to opening up her contact with Li Mao, wasn't it just to dilute her identity? If you really put it in the royal team, wouldn't it remind people of this princess Shou?

And the family members of hundreds of officials also inevitably knew Yang Yuhuan, so Yang Yuhuan finally followed the end of the team and walked with those wealthy businessmen.

Compared to those rich businessmen who loaded silver money in a carriage and a carriage, Yang Yuhuan's team can be described as simple. The first carriage was shared by Yang Yuhuan and Li Tengkong, the latter was to place items, and the last one was a few women who specialized in serving.

said that it was a woman's way, but in fact, it was not, those people were all sent by Li Longji to take care of Yang Yuhuan's daily life, and they were more or less eyeliner. During the Tang Dynasty, the highest quality of care was the Silla maid. Silla maids are professionally trained, well-behaved and capable, and they are very popular in Datang, because they are sought-after, and they are probably only consumed by big families. Is it from this point of view, is Yang Yuhuan's treatment bad?

It is worth mentioning that there are many real black people in the team.

There was a popular saying in the Tang Dynasty, called 'Kunlun Nu, Silla Maid', Kunlun Nu was as strong as an ox, gentle in temperament, down-to-earth and upright, and was also very popular, and it was the most suitable to watch the home guards. But there is also a difference between Kunlun slaves.

Most of them are dwarf blacks living in Southeast Asia and South Asia, and are of the Negritto race, not really black. And if they come from North Africa, they are monks and slaves. Of course, in fact, the big guy is not so detailed at this time, no matter where he comes from, as long as he is darker than us, it is Kunlun slave, as long as he is down-to-earth and willing to work, then it is not a matter.

Looking at these black people, as well as the larger number of Hu people, Zhou Shaoyu felt inexplicable, how can it be said that he saw foreigners in ancient times, and there were more than one or two, which was really rare.

If you calculate it this way, uh, the slave trade in our Great China is really early.

Zhou Shaoyu shook his head in the carriage, waved a horsewhip, turned his head sideways, and smiled in the carriage: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't want Yu Niang to still be so defensive of me, can't you give me a chance to defend myself?" ”

That's right, Zhou Shaoyu finally showed up! And pretending to be a groom again!?
