Chapter 140: Li Deyu returns to Beijing

Wu Zong summoned, Li Deyu did not dare to slack off. With four retinues, he traveled day and night, and rushed back to the capital from western Zhejiang in the middle of the month.

The three of them washed up and changed into clean clothes at a mountain stream outside the city. The two entourages went home to report their safety, and Li Deyu took the other two entourages directly to the palace.

Although Li Deyu was tired on the road, his eyes were bright. The guards informed Li Deyu that Tang Wuzong was discussing government affairs with the courtiers in the Yanying Palace. He stepped down from the throne and went to greet him outside the temple himself.

The monarch and the ministers were extremely excited to see each other, Li Deyu wanted to make a big salute, but Wuzong stopped him, "Li Aiqing, I finally hope you back!" ”

The monarch and the ministers walked into the hall hand in hand. Wu Zong gave him a seat, Li Deyu took a side, and half of his ass was outside the stool.

The other courtiers who were discussing with Wu Zong retreated after a few words of greeting with him. The long-lost monarch and the minister have a lot to say.

Li Deyu returned to Beijing this time and was summoned as a servant under the door, and he was in charge of the same book. Speaking of other candidates for prime minister, Wu Zong mentioned Bai Juyi.

Bai Juyi is famous for his articles, and the world is vying to copy his poems, which once led to the high cost of Luoyang paper. Since Bai Juyi entered politics, his career has not been smooth.

Deyu was good friends with Yuan Zhen and Li Shen, and was called "Sanjun." "Yuan Zhen and Bai Juyi are best friends in life and death. But at this time, Bai Juyi was nearly seventy years old and frail and sickly.

So Li Deyu said, "Bai Juyi is old and frail, and he is not enough to take on a big responsibility. Wu Zong was disappointed.

Deyu said again, "However, his brother's son, Bai Minzhong, a member of the left division, is not inferior to Juyi, and he has insight and bearing,"

Wu Zong was overjoyed and immediately named Bai Minzhong as a bachelor of Hanlin.

Wu Zong talked about his control of the current situation in recent times, King Chen and King An have already subdued the law, and those who follow them to plot misdeeds have been put in prison.

Deyu listened to the words and said, "When Taizong was the king of Qin, he was often feared by the prince, and Wei Zheng even said that the prince would get rid of the king of Qin several times. Until Taizong ascended the throne, Wei Zheng was not only not convicted of being punished, but became Taizong's minister. ”

"In your opinion?"

"Before Your Majesty ascended the throne, Li Jue and the others were just their own masters. King An and King Chen have already subdued the law, and now His Majesty is in the world and returning to the heart, which is the time to employ people. Li Jue and others are quite talented officials, why didn't Your Majesty open up the net and release a few people from their foreign posts as punishment. ”

Wu Zong said, "Just according to what Aiqing said, it will be played." ”

Wu Zong stepped down from the throne and took Deyu's hand, "Li Aiqing, I will wash the dust for Aiqing today." ”

Deyu politely declined; "Your Majesty is very grateful for your courtier's great love. It's just that the minister hasn't seen his wife when he comes back. Wu Zong then let Deyu go back.

approved Deyu's proposal, Li Jue was appointed as the Guiguan Observer, Yang Si came back as the Hunan Observer, and Xue Yuan was appointed as the Observer of Western Zhejiang.

Li Jue and others never expected to save their lives, not to mention, although they were released from foreign office, they could still serve the imperial court.

What I didn't expect was that there would be Li Deyu all the battles today. You must know that during the Wenzong period, Wenzong appreciated Li Deyu a lot, so why did he attract people's jealousy.

The Niu Party led by Niu Shengyu and Li Zongmin had the upper hand and often slandered Li Deyu in front of Wenzong.

Complained to Wenzong that Li Deyu was plotting wrong. Ji Du Zhongyang, who was the adoptive mother of Li Miao, the king of Zhang, used this to mingle with Li Miao, and plotted to rebel.

Wenzong heard that he was repaid! Wang Ya, Lu Sui, Li Jue and others were brought to Penglai Hall to discuss the matter. Wang Ya insisted that this was indeed the case.

Lu Sui tried to prove that Li Deyu could not have done this, and he said, "If Li Gong is really like this, then I can't drag it out." ”

Li Jue remained silent. Wenzong finally believed Lu Sui's words, and the matter was over. But Li Deyu was transferred out of the capital again for this reason.

Lu Sui was hated by the Niu Party because of his defense of Li Deyu, and was soon removed from the post of prime minister.

Now Li Deyu repaid his grievances with virtue, saved Li Jue's life, and kept his official position. Li Jue was very ashamed.

Tang Wuzong wanted to hold a banquet to celebrate Li Deyu's return, but he politely declined.

The emperor values him and gives him a stage to display his talents, he only needs to work hard and serve the emperor. I don't want to pull up too tall and make a big move.

When he returned home after bidding farewell to the emperor, Mrs. Wang had already prepared a banquet and was waiting for him. Li Nian has already started a family, and Li Yi has also grown into a young man. He is especially fond of children, hey, he should not have this daughter.

Li Deyu sat in the east, the four attendants sat in the south, and Mrs. Wang and several of her concubines sat in the north. Li Nian and his wife, Li Yi sat in the west.

Mrs. Wang figured out Li Deyu's expression, knowing that he remembered Bao Chuan, and hurriedly Zhang Luo to create an atmosphere.

"By the grace of God, my lord returned to Beijing to take up his post this time. For people over half a hundred years old, the family reunion is gratifying. ”

Both Huansha and Guizi are busy in the kitchen, roasting suckling pig, boiled mutton, sashimi, sauced beef, cheese, Biluo cherries, apples, algae soup and so on.

Guizi has daughters, and Huansha is in her early twenties and has entered the ranks of leftover women.

How good it is for the family to be happy, where is the young lady drinking the wind or drinking the dew, there is no news. Huansha makes soup, the soup pot is boiling, and she misses Bao Chuan.

Li Deyu's family education is extremely strict, although Li Nian has become a family, he still does not dare to make a mistake in front of his father.

Li Yi is arrogant and a little willful by his mother on weekdays, but when he sees his father's sharp eyes, he immediately behaves in a proper manner.

After eating, Mrs. Wang chatted with her husband about the big and small things in the family. "Master, the third girl was abducted by Xue Shang back then, I really want to sue him for abducting a woman from a good family and let the government punish him."

Mrs. Wang's words changed, "But I think about the reputation of our girls because of this, and our family has become a laughing stock in the world." There's no way, dumb and you have to eat if you don't eat. ”

Li Deyu's face sank, "The Li family doesn't have this person, so don't mention her again." ”

Li Nian and his daughter-in-law cooked and made wontons for supper and brought them to their father. Mrs. Wang and her daughter-in-law went out and asked the father and son to stop talking.

Li Nian talked about Zhang Honghong's case, and with Jiang Yao's help, he was able to avoid an unjust case. Almost innocent people were killed, leaving the real culprits unpunished.

"Is that the child who learned art from Master since he was a child?"

"Father, Jiang Yao is the child of Bao Chuan's nurse."

"Hugh is going to pretend to her in front of me."

Li Deyu hates his daughter for not being angry, if he could stick to the etiquette law back then, he would also be the imperial concubine today, not to mention that Wuzong is a Ming monarch.

The master has a background, and it seems that he has obtained the true inheritance of a master, Li Deyu thought to himself.

"You can invite him to your home when you have time."

The eunuchs controlled the government for several years, and the talents could not stand, and they were all squeezed out. Villains such as Zheng Zhu and Li Xun who are too selfish are soaring.

Li Deyu is thirsty for talent, if Jiang Yao has the talent to help the world, he will strongly recommend it.

Li Nian expected his father to ask Bao Chuan, but he was disappointed. Not only did his father not mention it, but he tentatively opened his mouth, but he was stopped by his father and warned that he did not want to hear it a second time.

He never gave up searching, hoping to find Bao Chuan's traces one day, but she seemed to have evaporated from the world.

Li Nian didn't know that Xue Shang had become a treacherous person. But Li Deyu heard the word Xue Shang from Mrs. Wang again today, and he suspected that Xue Shang, who eloped with Bao Chuan back then, and Li Guyan's Chenglong fast son-in-law may be the same person.

Although I don't know if it's the same person, why would he appear in Yizhou, thousands of miles away? How did he become Li Guyan's son-in-law again? But intuitively, he decided that the two Xue Shang were the same person.

Thinking of this, he didn't worry about the situation of the abandoned Bao Chuan? He only hates, hates Bao Chuan for life, hates her for being unladylike, hates her for throwing her away and switches to such an ending, hates her for insulting the wind and follows the villain who forgets his righteousness.

She is to blame for everything, and she should not have given birth to her!
