Volume 1 Chapter 023 Digging a Pit

The eldest grandson is gone after all.

Li Chengqian led Li Lizhi in the ten-mile pavilion and quietly watched the carriage that was getting farther and farther away, and finally there was a little more sorrow about parting.

And Li Liqing, who was full of curiosity about the new world just now, couldn't escape the ending of crying.

After a final glance in the direction of Chang'an City, Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Clean up and set off." ”

Chang'an, after all, is not his Chang'an, no matter how prosperous and majestic it is, it is not his Chang'an.

This point has been clear since he crossed over.

Because of the addition of Li Lizhi and a few more palace maids, the original three carriages were not enough.

There was no way, so I had to let the wounded soldiers squeeze into a carriage at once, one for the four palace maids, and one for Li Chengqian and Changle.

Soon, the soldiers packed everything up, and everyone set off again.

On the carriage, Li Lizhi lay on Li Chengqian's lap, sobbed in a low voice, and asked in a low voice: "Big brother, can't we go back?" Never see the queen mother and the emperor again? ”

was born in the deep palace compound since she was a child, even though she is only in her teens, she knows a lot more than her peers.

"Silly girl, as long as you want to come back, no matter when or where, big brother will send you back." Li Chengqian patted her head and said with a smile.

Seeing this girl, Li Chengqian remembered his daughter in his previous life for no reason, who was also so big, but she was very naughty and eccentric all day long.

If he had a choice, he really wouldn't want to travel to this place.

Even if he was allowed to cross directly to an emperor, he wouldn't do it!

But at this point, he can only do his best to survive.

Yes, everything he is doing now is just trying to survive.

To be honest, if he doesn't leave Chang'an for a day, he will be restless for a day.

There is no way, he is not the real Li Chengqian, he just inherited Li Chengqian's memory and wore his body.

Let a future generation immediately integrate into the Tang Dynasty and become a qualified Tang Dynasty person, or even the prince of the Tang Dynasty, this is simply nonsense.

God knows how he survived all this time?

Don't dare to be sloppy when you sit and stand up, and before you say every word, you have to go through it in your heart first.

It's a very painful day like this......

Seeing that Li Lizhen was still crying, Li Chengqian patted her head and said, "How about the eldest brother tell you a story?" ”

Li Lizhen didn't speak, just nodded.

Her mind was very chaotic at this time, not only looking forward to the novelties that Li Chengqian said, but also being reluctant to give up her father and queen mother.

Of course, Li Chengqian knew, but it was still difficult for him to coax a child, so he said immediately: "Once upon a time, there was a princess who looked as good as our little Changle......"

After talking for more than half an hour, Li Lizhi fell asleep after listening, while Li Chengqian gently patted her on the back and covered her with the blanket he had prepared before.

This made him feel like he coaxed his daughter to sleep back then, maybe there was someone to carry his feelings, otherwise this strange and cold world would be too boring for him.

After placing Li Liqing, he was thinking about changing the carriage.

Although his carriage can be regarded as a top match in Datang, but along the way, the bumpy strength almost didn't break his waist.

"Zhao Yan." Slightly lifting the curtain of the carriage, Li Chengqian saw Zhao Yan riding a horse and followed outside, and said, "You take two people to Jingyang County quickly, we will settle in Jingyang tonight, you go to find a good place to settle down first." ”

Zhao Yan was the first to accompany Li Chengqian to Chang'an with Liu San, and he was also the first to heal among these wounded soldiers.

"Then do you want to inform the yamen?" Zhao Yan asked.

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Since we have already left Chang'an, don't put the prince's shelf, just find a clean inn or private house."

By the way, I don't think we have much food, so when you arrive in Jingyang, arrange a place to stay, go find a grain store, and if you still have time, ask where you can buy a carriage. ”

"Commanded by humility." With that, Zhao Yan beat his horse and left.

He didn't rush to leave, but first called the others to guard outside Li Chengqian's car, and then took the two people and rode towards Jingyang.

After arranging this, Li Chengqian continued to make future plans in his mind.

At the same time, in Chang'an City, because of Li Chengqian's westward journey, it caused an uproar among the nobles.

Especially among the gentry groups, that caused even more outrage.

It was only two hours after the morning came, and originally, everyone should go home and rest for a while, and when they were rested, they continued to run errands.

But today is different, whether it is a civilian official or a military attachΓ©, they are all gathered together in twos and threes.

There is no way, Li Chengqian's departure has too much impact on Datang.

In the Lu Yushi Mansion, the hall was also full of people, all of whom were officials of the scholar clan, as well as some representatives of the scholar clan in Chang'an City.

Everyone was talking about what happened today, and for a while, there was a commotion in the hall.

"Alright, alright, alright." Master Cui said, "Everyone knows the matter, but now the question is, what are we going to do next?" This time, the crown prince ran away, and it was too big a blow to our scholars, Brother Lu, you are the party today, why don't you talk about it? ”

Lu Yushi frowned, but he still had to bite the bullet and said: "Everyone, today His Royal Highness the Crown Prince let us go, if he hadn't interceded for us before leaving, our fate today would be unpredictable......"

He really didn't want to continue tossing with them.

You know, it's really just a matter of one sentence for him to leave the house today, and he finally crawled back from the ghost gate, and he doesn't want to try again.

forced the crown prince to abdicate and committed suicide in the court......

It's scary to think about him now!

"That's not what I said." Master Cui waved his hand and said, "It is inevitable that the prince will intercede for us, if he really forces our scholar clan to a dead end today, even if he can return to Chang'an in the future, how should he gain a foothold in the court?" How to take over the world?

Don't forget, our scholar officials account for a full forty percent of the entire Tang Dynasty, and this still includes those noble officials.

If there is no one from our clan to help them govern the world with the Li family, wouldn't they be able to read a basket of generals with those big words? ”

The others all nodded their heads.

In fact, it is not surprising that in these years, the power of the Shi clan is really too large.

You must know that when the "Chronicles of the Clan" was revised in a few years, their Cui family was listed as the first class, and they overwhelmed the Li family's royal family, and finally Li Shimin was so angry that he ordered it to be rebuilt, and the Cui family was classified as the third class.

From here, you can see how powerful the Shi clan is at this time!

It is precisely because of this strength that the children of the Shi clan are more confident than others no matter what they do.

"I've already informed Jingyang." Master Cui continued, "Jingyang County Ling is a member of my Cui family, not only that, but nearly forty percent of the shops in Jingyang are my Cui family's property.

And the prince's westward journey, because it is a temporary intention, will definitely rest in Jingyang to replenish supplies.

I mean, everyone should move and mobilize the forces of each family, and it is best to let the prince not be able to replenish supplies along the way, and finally come back disgraced himself. ”

For Master Cui, he only felt that today's encounter was a great shame.

Even though Li Shimin had been looking for an opportunity to deal with their clan, he had never been so rude to Li Chengqian.

Didn't you speak eloquently to go west? I will let you not even get the most basic food, see how you go west, and when the time comes, you will come back with a disgraced face, and see how you face the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

To do this, it is really not difficult for their clans.

It is true that the scholars do not produce high-ranking officials, but the low-level officials and middle-level officials are almost monopolized by them!
