Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Western Patrol Team
If it weren't for the fact that he had been getting along with Yuan Shen all these years, there would still be some brotherhood, and Li Hao really didn't want to care about these troublesome things.
It's just that Li Hao didn't go directly to Wanfu to ask for it, so although he could directly achieve his goal, Li Hao wanted to try to help the prince get an errand in addition to this.
After all, this guy really didn't have any contact with Qu Lengjun in private, so Li Hao also planned to help him.
It is estimated that Emperor Wen really understands his son's ability, although the current prince has been arranged to participate in politics, but basically he has always stayed in the capital to deal with some trivial matters.
On the other hand, the third prince, after this guy came to the throne, he was highly used, and even let him implement the great policy of the Dutian Order, which is popular in the world, and let him go to the state capital to deal with officials and dispatch troops and horses, which is too obvious.
It just so happened that Emperor Wen was going to tour the west this time to test the reaction of Shudi, so he could use the name of the prince to take the map of Shu from Wan Songbai to see if he could stuff the prince into the team this time.
Of course, this possibility is not great, after all, now that the crown prince is old, it is not good for both father and son to leave the capital and let Queen Xuan supervise the country again.
Although Empress Xuan didn't do it before, it was when the crown prince couldn't be a director, and it was always a bit inappropriate to do it now.
But as long as he can leave an impression in Emperor Wen's heart, maybe if there is a suitable opportunity in the future, there will be an opportunity for the prince to perform.
However, I am afraid that the prince himself has to take the initiative to have a slight chance in this matter, so if Li Hao is alone, the strength of this persuasion is slightly insufficient.
Although Li Hao boasts that his ability is stronger than Wang Chun and Lou Jing, who made this prince not a person who knows people well.
In his heart, Lou Jing and Wang Chun, teachers and relatives, have a much stronger status than Li Hao.
Among these two, Li Hao has no friendship with Lou Jing, the prince and princess, and the main fight is naturally Wang Chun, an old acquaintance.
As for Wang Ji's matter, it is a trivial matter, and with Wang Chun's character, he will not break off contact with Li Hao for this reason.
So before going to the East Palace, Li Hao took the initiative to send a letter and asked Wang Chun to come to Yuan's Mansion to talk about it, after all, the Wang family has Wen Xiujun here, and Li Hao doesn't want to see the ultimate brother demon.
In fact, just as Li Hao thought, Wang Chun quickly rushed to Yuan's mansion after receiving Li Hao's letter.
And after the meeting, Wang Chun's first sentence was to thank Li Hao: "Ziyang, I have to thank you for the matter of the Ruyang Palace, if you hadn't made a move, Ah Ji Ke would have been in a big disaster that day."
When Li Hao heard this, he replied, "General Wang, don't say this, it's good that you don't blame me for this."
After talking about this matter in two sentences, Li Hao pulled Wang Chun into the main hall, sat down and spoke slowly.
So Li Hao mentioned the matter of letting the prince accompany him on the western tour, and after hearing this, Wang Chun asked the reason: "Why do you want the prince to follow His Majesty's western tour this time, is there any intention?"
Li Hao replied: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now widely known in the world for benevolence, but his martial name is not obvious.
And judging from the current situation, the scale of this military incident will not be very large, and if the prince can intervene in it, it will be beneficial for himself."
After Wang Chun heard this, he looked at Li Hao meaningfully, although Wang Chun is not a capable person, but he has been able to live in a car and ride a general for so long, and he still has a little ability to know what to say.
Since Li Hao said this, it is obvious that he wants to take action by himself, after all, he knows his own details, and he is not the material for leading troops to fight at all.
If the crown prince succeeds in winning the opportunity this time, he will have to fight under the nose of Emperor Wen, and he still has to have some real skills.
However, Wang Chun was not satisfied with this, compared to Li Hao's strength alone, he wanted the support of the Yuan family more, so he asked: "The prince can get the help of Ziyang, and it is naturally easy to deal with this small scene, but I don't know if this generation does not represent the meaning of the Yuan family?"
Li Hao said with a smile: "General Wang said that I laughed, where did I become the master of the Yuan family, I just did my own thing, only when I did my part well, can I talk about the follow-up, right?"
Then they talked
After all, it is not yet the time for the Yuan family to have a showdown, so let's observe the situation first.
After Wang Chun understood what Li Hao meant, he didn't do any more entanglement, so he promised that he would take the initiative to persuade the prince, after all, if this matter is successful, it will make the prince's position more stable, and it will also be beneficial to himself.
After negotiating with Wang Chun here, Li Hao rushed to the East Palace and said to the prince: "The minister heard that His Majesty's western tour is imminent, and now he is looking for a map of Shu Land, and it just so happens that I know where this map is, and I can get it for the prince.
The crown prince can take this opportunity to propose to His Majesty that he follow His Majesty all the way west to learn the way of peace and stability."
Hearing this, the prince asked suspiciously, "It's naturally okay to take the map, but why do you want me to accompany my father and the emperor and stay alone in the capital to deal with state affairs."
Then Li Hao analyzed the current situation for the prince, and deeply analyzed with him what are the benefits of this trip, and finally the prince said, "Well, let me think about it again, think about it again."
This reaction was not what Li Hao expected, and it would depend on Wang Chun's means later, and Li Hao planned to get the Shu land map first.
However, Li Hao did not go directly to Wan Songbai, but went to Cheng Shide's Quling Marquis Mansion, after all, compared to getting Wan Songbai from greedy for money.
Through the Cheng Shi couple, who are more trusting and rational in themselves, it will be much easier for them to come forward.
It just so happened that according to the news inquired by Li Hao, Cheng Shaoshang would still be in the mansion and did not go to Wanfu.
That is just enough to solve this matter as soon as possible, and if Cheng Shaoshang goes to Wanfu again, he will not run into Ling Budo.
When Li Hao arrived at Cheng's Mansion and told Xiao Yuanyi and Cheng Shiyi about the matter, after the two of them glanced at each other, they immediately agreed.
Because they know that whether it is their own family or ten thousand families, their foundation is not reliable, ordinary gold, pearls, beautiful jade, and even weapons and bronze weapons can be occupied, but the power seal and the map of Kanyu can never be kept.
But he still asked, "Lord Yuan, do you think this Shuzhong will really be opposed?"
Li Hao replied: "Not long after Shuzhong is calmed down, it is inevitable that some people will be delusional, but as long as you prepare early, you probably won't be able to set off any storms, just in case."
For Li Hao's explanation, the two of them can also accept it, saying that Li Hao and Cheng Shi were involved in the battle of Shuzhong, and they both know a little about the situation.
After that, Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi rushed to Wanfu with Li Hao, and happened to bump into Ling Budo, who was also in Wanfu, so they sat down together.
[At present, it is the most complete and best app for listening to books, integrating 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and it supports offline reading
I forgot, you and the maid should accompany me to find it."
After speaking, he apologized to Li Hao and Ling Budo, and the three of them walked to the inner courtyard together.
And Ling Budo, who was sitting in the hall, asked Li Hao at this time, "Brother Ziyang came to get this Shu land map today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really knows."
Li Hao replied: "That's natural, I don't dare to deceive Zicheng, or you will ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when you return to the palace."
"That's not necessary, I naturally believe what Brother Ziyang said, it's just that the prince suddenly became so positive, it's a little strange.
It seems that Brother Ziyang's entry into the East Palace is indeed a good thing for the crown prince." Ling Budo said.
Li Hao replied: "Zicheng praised me falsely, although the prince is not resolute and decisive, but his heart for the country and the people is also strong, and I am just helping from the side.
But since Zicheng arrived first today, after General Huiwan brought the map, it would be better for Zicheng to bring it back."
Ling Budo shook his head when he heard this, and said, "No need, since they are all dedicated to Your Majesty, then let the crown prince come, so that Your Majesty can be happier."
At this time, Ling Budo was not completely disappointed with the prince, and this map did not involve what he wanted to take revenge, so he was willing to give the opportunity to the prince.
And Li Hao naturally would not refuse, after all, this is not a personal matter, when he said: "In this case, then I will thank you for His Royal Highness the Prince, and I will inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of this matter when I go back."
Ling Budo smiled and nodded, and after that, the two didn't speak again, just quietly waited for Wan Songbai and them to come back.
On the other hand, after Wang Songbai learned what happened from Cheng Shi, he knew that he had almost made a big mistake, so he naturally didn't dare to keep the map of Shu anymore.
But another question came again, now that the two of them outside are going to be able to get a map, so who should this map give it to after it is taken out, whether it is Ling Budo or the prince, they are all people they don't want to offend.
In the end, Cheng Shi made a decision and said, "Let them decide this matter for themselves, Ling Budo and Yuan Ang are both smart and wise people, in this case, I estimate that they have already decided.
Anyway, Brother Wan and I will go back later, and Yuan Yi and I will go back to find out Yuan Ang's tone first, and then you can go in after you are sure, so as not to be embarrassed."
Wan Songbai also agreed when he heard this, and then the three of them went to Mrs. Wan together, and after explaining the situation, they got the map.
After coming back, according to what was originally said, Wan Songbai stayed outside the hospital, and Xiao Yuanyi and Cheng Shi went in first.
Facing the puzzled eyes of Li Hao and Ling Budo, Cheng Shi took the initiative to say, "I have already found that Kanyu map just now, but when I was searching, Brother Wan was dirty and had to wash it for a while before coming over."
When Li Hao and Ling Budo saw that only two people were back, they roughly guessed Wan Songbai's concerns, so they simply didn't wait for the temptation, and said directly: "It's good to find it, I finally lived up to the prince's expectations, and I can go back to pay the errand."
When Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi heard this, after seeing that Ling Budo did not react, they immediately understood who to hand over to Kanyutu.
So Cheng Shi pretended to cough a few times unintentionally, and Wan Songbai, who was waiting outside, rushed in and handed over the map to Li Hao under the guidance of Cheng Shi.
After getting what they wanted, Li Hao and Ling Budo didn't stay here for long, got up and said goodbye to Wan Songbai.
Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi did not leave, saying that there were some things to discuss, but Li Hao and the others did not care.
However, if the two of them really knew the purpose of their stay, Li Hao might be okay to say, Ling Budo estimated that his jaw dropped.
Because these two people went to Mrs. Wan to complain, in the end, Wan Songbai was pressed and beaten by Mrs. Wan, so that he could remember for a long time and know what he could and couldn't keep.
Li Hao returned to the East Palace, and before Li Hao came back, Wang Chun had already come over, discussed the matter of his entourage with the prince, and finally persuaded the prince.
After that, Li Hao handed over the map to the prince and told him about what happened in Wanfu.
Of course, about Wan Songbai in front of the pushing
Ling Budo's matter, Li Hao didn't mention it, but said that Wanjia actively cooperated after learning the news, and found this Kanyu map after rummaging through the cabinets.
After hearing this, the prince first sighed at Wan Songbai's loyalty, and then said that this matter was unfair to Ling Budo.
Then Li Hao persuaded: "Brother Zicheng also wants to help His Royal Highness the Prince, after all, you both grew up together in the palace, didn't you save him from the water at the beginning, so it doesn't matter who sends it."
As long as you are in front of Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will tell you the truth, and I think Your Majesty will be happier to know that you have such a deep relationship."
The prince thought about it and felt that what Li Hao said was right, so he didn't refute it again, but went to Emperor Wen with Kanyu to fight for the opportunity to accompany him.
Perhaps it was because he was pleased that the prince took the initiative to fight for the first time, and Emperor Wen didn't think there would be any great danger along the way, so Emperor Wen thought about it again and agreed to the prince's request.
For this reason, Emperor Wen also called Li Hao to praise Li Hao, after all, not long after Li Hao entered the East Palace, the crown prince changed, and Emperor Wen attributed this credit to Li Hao.
And logically, as the crown prince who commanded the East Palace Guards, Li Hao was also named to lead the East Palace Guards to escort him, and the responsibility of supervising the country fell to Queen Xuan.
