Walking out of the West Garden, Li Lizhi hurriedly asked.

"Have you prepared all the food and drinks in the kitchen?"

"Don't worry, princess, I just asked the kitchen, and it's almost ready."

Cui Mo hurriedly replied.

"And the accompanying coachmen, they also have to prepare wine and food, and it is hard to travel all the way!"

Li Li nodded and said, Cui Mo hurriedly replied.

"I'll go and tell the kitchen."

Walking out of the west courtyard, Li Lizhi originally planned to go to the kitchen to have a look, but she always felt that her clothes were stained with the smell of spices.

"Let's go back and change our clothes first! I always feel that the smell of spices is too strong, and Lang Jun will not like it when he smells it. ”

Not only Li Lizhi thinks so, but Cuimo and Yingluo also think so, too many spices are also troublesome! The calf and the guards went straight to the Lu Guogong Mansion and the Wu Guogong Mansion respectively, and after the calf came to the Lu Guogong Mansion, he jumped off the horse directly and said with his hand.

"I am the chief of the guard of the Marquis of Huating, and I came to tell your mansion on the order of the Marquis that the eldest prince of Cheng has returned, and he is now a guest in Lijiazhuang."

The porter of Lu Guogong's Mansion naturally knew that Cheng was the eldest son of his grandfather and his wife, and he hurriedly said.

"Please wait a while, I'll go in and talk to our grandfather."

Cheng Yanjin, who had just returned home and was immersed in sorting out the art of war, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard the news.

"The son is back? That's great! ”

Cheng Biting Jin, who is already a very human minister, has already passed the heart of a thousand sails like an ancient well, and the only concern in his heart is the eldest son Cheng Chuhei who is adrift at sea, because the other one is in Xishan, and the other is in Shudi, but his eldest son went to the sea, and Cheng Chuhei has not returned for a long time, he and his wife are worried, after all, there are many storms at sea, it is very dangerous, and now when he hears Cheng Chuhei's return, he is overjoyed.

"Madam, my son is back, and now he is in Lijiazhuang!"

Cheng Biting Jin strode into the back house and said happily, Cui's face was pleasantly surprised.

"So what are you waiting for? Let's go, go to Lijiazhuang! ”

"Prepare the horses!"

The same situation also appeared in Yu Chi Gong's house, the people in Chang'an City praised Princess Zhenzhu's superb riding skills, in the Tang Dynasty, there are many women who ride horses well, this of course includes the wives of these generals, Cui Shi and Cheng Yanjin in purple clothes rode straight to Lijiazhuang together, I don't know how many people were stunned along the way, people just remembered, don't look at Cheng Biting Jin's stepwife is Qinghe Cui's, but can obey Cheng Biting Jinzhi, it is really impossible to have no ability, Lijiazhuang is extraordinarily lively today, The spices of the dozens of carriages ignited everyone's enthusiasm, and everyone couldn't help but look forward to it, thinking that grandpa should send someone to the sea, right? When they were recruited to the sea for the first time, they didn't go, and they must follow next time, Cheng Yanjin and Cui's jumped off the horse in front of the Huating Marquis's Mansion, and the porter greeted him while leading the horse.

"I've seen Lu Guogong, I've seen Mrs. Guo, our grandfather has expected that Grandpa and Mrs. will come, please come in!"

Cheng Yanjin and Cui's couldn't wait to walk into the mansion, and they heard a hearty laugh from afar, isn't that their son's laughter? The son really came back, and when he walked into the hall, they saw at a glance that Cheng was already with a tiger's back and a beard.

"Heir, I'm looking forward to you back!"

Cui exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, heir, there has been no news in the past year, and we are all very concerned."

Cheng Yanjin looked at his eldest son, who he hadn't seen for more than a year, and looked at the smell of a real soldier on his body, Cheng Yanjin was very satisfied.

"Dad, mother, I'm very good, I haven't seen me for more than a year, you don't need to worry about me, I'm free outside, free!"

Cheng Zhiji smiled heartlessly, Cheng Yanjin almost came to an action movie of father and son filial piety when he heard it, but fortunately, it is not suitable to meet today.

"Uncle Cheng, Aunt Cheng, please take a seat, they are all ready for you."

Li Yong smiled, and Mrs. Cheng smiled heartily.

"Then I'll bother today."

The two sat down and began to chat, and soon Wei Chigong and his wife also arrived, and then kept asking their son when he went to sea, after listening to them, Cheng Yanjin asked curiously.

"Son, have you really arrived in the Wa Kingdom?"

Cheng Chuji nodded and said.

"It is true that I arrived in the country of Wa, the way was very smooth, the chart given by the Hou Ye is very accurate, the place is mountainous, far less rich than our Tang Dynasty, and the average Japanese man is so tall."

While saying that, Cheng Chuhei also gestured, and Mrs. Cheng asked in surprise.

"So short? But I don't think the envoys of the Japanese kingdom are very short! ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Civilians must be short, they can't eat, they can't wear warm clothes, and they can't keep up with nutrition."

Cheng Chuji also smiled.

"That's right, and the envoy is a matter of face, you must choose someone with good looks to send the envoy, and I originally wanted to bring some special products of the Japanese country to my father and mother, but as a result, there are really no good things in that place."

Mrs. Cheng said with a smile.

"Son, you can return safely more than anything else, so what good things can a small barbarian country have."

Li Yong said with a smile.

"On this trip, they brought back dozens of carriages of spices, saying that some of them were gifts for you, and when Uncle Cheng and Uncle Wei Chi left, you might as well bring a few carriages."

Dozens of wagons of spices? Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong were stunned, although spices were not very strange to them, because they had also invested in merchant ships to go to sea, but for the first time, they were also relieved to see their son so sensible, which made them not regret their original decision, Cheng Yanjin said lightly.

"My son is sensible, but forget about these spices, and our family is not short of these."

Cheng scratched his head and smiled.

"I was looking for other things as planned, but the wind blew to another place, and the supplies on the ship were almost gone, so I came back with these burning things."

Hearing that his son said that these spices that were used as gold in Chang'an were things that burned fire, he suddenly became angry, and he shouted and scolded.

"We know that there is wealth everywhere overseas, but you loser, say that these are things that burn fire, see if I can't kill you!"

After that, he staged a full martial arts of father's kindness and filial piety, and Yu Chi Baolin was beaten by Wei Chi Gong with his head in his arms, and he asked in wonder.

"Dad, did I say this, why did you beat me?"

Wei Chigong said while beating.

"I know, it's not idle, playing."

Meow, can I still do this? Seeing that they were almost done, Li Yong separated them, and then said with a smile.

"Anyway, it was also brought back by your son, and it is also a little bit of their heart to be a son, so you can accept it!"

Cheng Chusi covered his pig-like face and said.

"Daddy, just take it! There is nothing good at sea, and it can be regarded as a son's heart! ”

Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong glanced at each other, and then Mrs. Cheng smiled.

"Since it's my son's heart, let's take two carriages!"

"Okay, let's take two cars with us."

In this way, each of them divided into two cars, which was regarded as a gift from his son.

"No wonder I smelled the fragrance of spices when I entered the house, and I thought that even the yard of your house was smoked with spices!"

Just when Lijiazhuang was staggering, the news of the forty carriages of spices had been fermented in Chang'an City, the battle of more than forty carriages was too big, and there were many people on that long street, many people saw it with their own eyes, Huating Hou sent people to come back from the sea last time on dozens of carriages of spices, this time back and dozens of carriages, that is spice! Precious and luxurious spices! It's not something that ordinary people can expect at all, even if it's a wealthy family, few people are willing to buy spices, even if they buy extravagantly once, they will buy a few taels, only large families are willing to buy by the catty, and the ones who can really afford spices are the noble homes of Chang'an City, so the value of spices in forty carriages is simply immeasurable, and people who hear it are stunned, and they can't imagine how much it's worth, it's really hard to believe! Those who saw it with their own eyes, when they were talking to others, others were stunned, and their faces were full of suspicion.

"This can't be, dozens of wagons of spices? How can it be? Do you know how precious spices are? ”

"Really! It's really dozens of wagons of spices! ”

"You must have heard it wrong, it must have been a few carriages, and you heard dozens of carriages!"

"I saw with my own eyes that there were dozens of carriages, and I couldn't see the end of them in a row!"

"And do you see that the carriage is full of spices?"

"That, I didn't see it, the spices came from outside the Tang Dynasty, with the magic of Huating Hou, I found so many spices last time, and this time it will definitely not be fake."

"That's right, since it's from the Huating Marquis Mansion, it must be true!"

"It's true, it's absolutely true, it's impossible for the people of the Huating Hou Mansion to lie, and I heard it right, there are really dozens of carriages of spices!"

"Whether it's true or false will soon be known, and I believe the news will spread soon!"

When the news was still circulating on this street, Li Er had already received the news, after all, dozens of carriages appeared at once, this battle was too big, and these dozens of carriages were still carriages in Li Yong's mansion, Li Er has always been very concerned about Li Yong, always paying attention to whether he has made anything good, the people of Chang'an will wonder if there are spices in those carriages, but the defenders of Chang'an City Gate will not suspect that dozens of carriages have entered Chang'an City, and they are all covered with tarpaulins, of course they have to check carefully, So they were very sure that the forty-two carriages were full of spices, full of spices, and after Wang Gang's father-in-law respectfully reported it, Li Er was stunned with a pen.

"Forty-two carriages, all full of spices?"

Li Er asked, and Wang Gang's father-in-law replied respectfully.

"The city gate guards reported it like this, they have personally tested it, and it will not be wrong."

Li Er couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he heard this, although he was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he had never seen dozens of carriages of spices! He missed it once last time, and this time he pulled so many back, spices are known for their preciousness, who has ever seen dozens of wagons of spices pulled back in a year? It's no wonder that he, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, has never seen the world, it's too unimaginable, dozens of carriages of spices, too gluttonous, since the guards of the city gate have been checked, of course there will be no mistake, Li Er's memory is surging, and he can't help but think of the words that Li Yong advocated going to sea at the beginning of the curtain, which is the spice island, there are many spice islands overseas, and the island is full of spices. How can it be? Therefore, Li Ercai felt suspicious, but he didn't expect Cheng Yanjin and them to invest in buying a boat from Li Yong to go to sea with them, and also brought back a large amount of spices, which made him and those who did not invest regret it at that time, and today they pulled dozens of cars back, isn't this a slap in the face!

"What about the spices? Why was it sent to Chang'an City? ”

Li Er suddenly asked with some confusion, and Wang Gang's father-in-law hurriedly explained.

"Sage, the fleet of the Huating Marquis Mansion has been at sea for almost a year, and I didn't know that he had moved outside the city to live, so I went directly to the mansion in the city, and now these spices have been sent to Lijiazhuang."

It's all in Lijiazhuang! Although I didn't see it, but Li Er's heart was very greedy, Li Yong, who had no conscience, didn't even know how many carriages to send into the palace, and the baby girl also hurt in vain, sure enough, it was the water that the married girl spilled out, and now Li Er regretted it very much, Li Yong tried his best to encourage everyone to buy a boat to go to sea, to be honest, he was also very moved, he also sent people south to collect wood, ready to build a ship to go to sea, but he didn't pay much attention to it, after all, there are too many major events in the DPRK and China, and there are many places to use money, and I always feel that building a ship to go to sea is a distant thing, It's good to take your time, if you use too much force all of a sudden, the officials in the court should be on the book again, but now, he regrets it so much! Let's go and see what the situation is with the dozens of carriages of spices, Li Er immediately put down his pen, and then got up and prepared to leave, suddenly he felt embarrassed again, he couldn't come back empty-handed, right?

"Go and invite the queen!"

In the Lizheng Palace, Empress Changsun was holding her son to tell a story, and when she heard the eunuch's report, she couldn't help but wonder a little, didn't the emperor just leave not long ago? Why was she suddenly in a hurry to go to the Manna Temple? Handing over the son to the grandmother beside her, the eldest grandson queen walked to the Ganlu Palace, and came to the Ganlu Palace, the eldest grandson queen raised her eyes and saw the emperor standing in front of the Ganlu Hall with her hands behind her back.

"Let's go, accompany a certain person to Lijiazhuang!"

"Go to Lijiazhuang?" Empress Eldest Sun had a trace of doubt in her beautiful eyes, this is almost dark, what are you doing in Lijiazhuang?

"Didn't Li Yong's fleet go to sea again, and now the people are back, pulling a full forty-two truckloads of spices."

Li Er explained, Empress Eldest Sun was sluggish, and there was a trace of doubt in her beautiful eyes.

"The saint is mistaken, right? Dozens of carts of spices? ”

Li Er shook his head and said.

"That's right! It's really dozens of carriages of spices, the guards at the city gate have checked it, it can't be fake, Li Yong has been there before, there are spice islands overseas, and the islands are full of spices, didn't you pull dozens of carts back last time? ”

Since it has been checked, there will naturally be nothing wrong, but what happened last time, Empress Changsun didn't know, because she was still sick at that time, Empress Changsun smiled and said.

"Spices are precious and scarce, even if there are not many in the palace, I didn't expect Li Yong to pull back dozens of cars and dozens of cars of spices as soon as he made a move, I can't imagine that the concubine has seen so many spices in her life! You have to go and see it for a long time! ”

Li Er laughed.

"I haven't seen this emperor yet! That's why I asked you to go and see and see together. ”

The chariot had already been prepared, but there was no preparation for the queen's phoenix drive, Li Er directly pulled the eldest grandson queen into the carriage, and the guards escorted the carriage out of the palace and drove towards Lijiazhuang.
