Volume 5 Chapter 679 The Ming Mission Enters Chang'an!
Hearing Li Tai's words, Changsun Chong instantly understood.
This is looking for Yao Da.
In fact, before leaving, whether it was Changsun Chong or Li Chengqian, they all asked Yao Da his opinion if he wanted to return to Chang'an this time.
He is different from others, Chang'an is no good memory for him.
Of course, they are also worried that this guy will do something out of the ordinary, and don't forget what will happen to his family in the end.
However, Yao Da at that time rejected this proposal, and Li Chengqian and Changsun Chong did not say more.
Worry is just worry, besides, as far as the security forces around Li Er are concerned, a Yao Da really can't do anything, of course, there are many more reasons.
After all, today's Yao Da is not the lonely man he was at the beginning, there are a group of brothers in the Changming Army, and Yao Er, who is not like relatives but is better than relatives, and the initiators of the year were also solved by him.
The resentment has long since dissipated more than half.
But if you really want to talk about the main reason, that is that the eldest grandson queen is still alive.
Since Yao Da suffered a great change in his family, the person he is most grateful to is his aunt, which is why the eldest grandson Chong and Li Chengqian dared to let him come.
Don't look at the eldest grandson and queen of the female stream, it seems that she has done nothing, but she is really popular.
"I was bragging with my uncle and grandson Yu just now, what about people here?" Eldest Sun Chong pretended to be puzzled and said.
He actually knew that Yao Da didn't keep up with him, and the people who followed at this time were all the nobles of Chang'an.
Yao Da felt that his identity was not enough, so he didn't come to join in the excitement, and at this time, nine times out of ten, Yao Da and Uncle Sun Yu and others were loyal to their duties in the back.
As soon as Li Tai heard what Changsun Chong said, he immediately understood, and said with a smile: "Then I will go to find it myself, and the queen mother specially explained it before I came." ”
During the year he stayed in Sun Moon Mountain, he was very familiar with these guys, and he often went to the Changming Army to play with them, and in front of them, he really didn't have any fight.
Of course, whether this kind of behavior is a cover or something else, it is estimated that Li Tai himself knows it in his heart.
When Li Zhi and the others heard this, they also laughed and said, "Yes, yes, this king has never seen that cousin." ”
When he said this, everyone laughed.
Immediately, they walked together in the direction where the mission had settled.
In fact, everyone was relieved, Yao Da's identity was too sensitive, and they were also worried about Li Erqiu's reckoning.
However, with the words of Empress Changsun, it is estimated that Li Er will not deliberately target Yao Da.
Walking in the crowd, Wang Dequan asked in a low voice, "That person's identity is so sensitive, why don't you let him stay in Sun Moon Mountain?" ”
He couldn't understand a little, what Eldest Sun Chong said might not be easy, but if His Highness spoke, Yao Da would not be able to refuse.
"It's also a temptation." Eldest Sun Chong also said helplessly, "But don't worry too much, even if my aunt didn't speak, something unpredictable happened, and His Royal Highness also arranged a way out for him." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Cheng Chuliang and Fang Yiai, and he was quite helpless in his heart.
The confidence of the envoy to Datang this time is indeed too much.
Don't look at them one by one, it's nothing, but with so many people combined, the power behind the weaving is definitely something that no one dares to underestimate.
Even if it is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty!
And Xue Rengui, who was commanding a group of soldiers to help the mission settle down, was also stunned when he saw so many people walking in his direction, and heard Fang Yiai on the opposite side shouting: "Where is Yao Da? Damn, hurry up and come out, how can you be like a bitch? ”
Yao Da was also a little stunned, and when he heard this, he looked at Xue Rengui, and saw Xue Rengui nodded, so he walked out, and happened to meet Li Tai and the others who were coming on.
"I've seen my cousin." Li Tai bowed.
Behind him, Li Zhi, Chengyang, Yuzhang and even the youngest Xincheng and others saluted one after another: "I've seen my cousin." ”
For a moment, Yao Da was a little confused, he knew who these people were, and he also knew what the relationship between these people and himself was, but he just felt that it was not real.
"What are you doing in a daze, your younger brothers and sisters salute you, you don't have any souvenirs?" Cheng Chuliang immediately shouted.
They actually know and understand that this is a kind of protection from Empress Changsun to Yao Da.
As their own brothers, they were of course happy for Yao Da.
Don't forget, in the first year of Zhenguan, after the rebellion of the eldest grandson Anye and Li Xiaochang, although there was a reason for the eldest grandson queen, the eldest grandson Anye's family was spared from death and was assigned to the state of Xichang (Xichang in later generations) (Xichang in later generations was also Daliangshan), but in the end the family disappeared, although it was later confirmed by Yao Da that his family was slaughtered by Yin Hongzhi, but the sea fishing documents issued that year have not been withdrawn until now.
In other words, Yao Da is still a fugitive wanted criminal in Datang......
However, Yao Da was a little dazed at this moment, he didn't bring any souvenirs, and he was a little at a loss there for a while.
At this moment, Fang Yiai shouted: "Oh my God, you are stupid with excitement, right?" I've got it for you. ”
Saying that, Fang Yiai also handed Yao Da a cloth bag, Yao Da didn't know what his brother meant, so he turned it up in the cloth bag at the moment, picked out a few fluffy puppets and sent them to a few people in Xincheng.
At this moment, he actually enjoyed it quite a bit.
The word "relatives" is too strange to him, and he is too eager to do so.
"These puppets are really not suitable for His Royal Highness King Jin." Yao Da said, touched it in his arms, and actually took out a dagger inlaid with gems, handed it to Li Zhi, and said with a smile, "This is the trophy from the previous time when the Western Turk rebellion was quelled, but it is suitable for His Royal Highness the King of Jin." ”
He likes this dagger quite a bit himself, otherwise he wouldn't have kept it with him all the time, and he gave it away as soon as his brain was hot.
Li Zhi looked at the dagger, but he was happy, boys, they like to dance with guns and sticks, of course, it doesn't matter to him anything, he still has this kind of upbringing.
Looking back at Li Tai, Yao Da was a little helpless, and finally had to untie the scimitar on his waist and said: "Although this knife is not a treasure, it is also my first trophy, and it has followed me into battle to kill the enemy for a long time. ”
"How can you dislike it." Li Tai took the knife, it was not polite at all, he actually knew that Da Ming was not short of weapons, and this knife was not a high-quality product, if he really wanted to say that it was precious, it would mean a difference to Yao Da.
On the other side, Li Jingren didn't know when he touched Fang Yiai's side, and said in an unhappy tone: "You kid, did you give Lao Tzu's things?" ”
"Ah, that's yours, I thought it was mine?" Fang Yiai pretended to be surprised and said.
Li Jingren was angry, but there was no way to take Fang Yiai's kid, seeing him like this, Fang Yiai smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it's all your own brother, you can't watch your brother lose face, right?" ”
"Humph!" snorted coldly, Li Jingren didn't speak, he actually didn't mind about this matter, the key is why do you take Lao Tzu's things as favors?
Of course, for the sake of this matter, they will not turn their faces, they are all stirring horses and spoons in a pot, not to.
On this night, it was quite lively outside Jingyang City.
On the other hand, Chang'an City is actually not inferior, I don't know how many fast horses sent the news back overnight.
Although there is a curfew, but for these people, the curfew can also be a thing?
In any era, a privileged class exists.
The next day, early in the morning, the entire Chang'an City seemed to be waiting for something.
In particular, the little grandfathers and little marquis of various noble families filled the tea shops and taverns along Suzaku Street early in the morning, not only them, but also the sons and daughters of the major scholars.
And early in the morning, the officials of the Ministry of Rites headed by Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, led a huge team out of the city and went straight to Shili Pavilion.
"What's going on today?" Outside a restaurant, the guy who had just finished his work asked puzzledly.
The shopkeeper of the restaurant said with a smile: "The Ming mission is here, otherwise the king of the county will take the officials of the Ministry of Rites out of the city to greet him?" ”
They had actually heard the news of the Ming mission's entry into Beijing for a long time, but they didn't know the specific time, but today's movement is already very revealing.
……
In the Ten Mile Pavilion, the old god Li Xiaogong was sitting on the ground waiting for the Ming mission.
As a member of the Tang Dynasty, he has no pressure at all.
So it's extra easy at this time.
As far as these people are concerned, as long as they are in a clear position, they really don't want to be too comfortable on this day.
"Lord Wang, the mission has arrived." At this moment, a pro-soldier walked in and said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Li Xiaogong nodded, and then walked out of the pavilion.
A group of officials from the Ministry of Rites also hurriedly followed.
Of course, they are only outside the pavilion and will not go out to greet each other again, and being able to get here is already the highest standard.
If this wasn't the first time that the Ming Dynasty had officially sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty, and knowing that the Ming Dynasty's mission was huge, it would not have been possible for them to even come here to greet them.
"The envoy of the Ming Dynasty, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the eldest grandson Chong, have seen the king of the Tang River and the ......" As soon as the eldest grandson Chong arrived, he turned over and dismounted, bowing down to give a salute.
The rest of the people did the same.
After the politeness of the "Tang Hejian County King, the Ministry of Rites and the ...... of Shangshu", the two countries began the formal handover work.
This work is more tedious.
Ceremonial and military.
There is nothing to say about the etiquette, just follow the steps, but the military one, it is a little troublesome.
After all, the Ming Dynasty sent a whole Changming army to escort the mission, and when they arrived at the boundary of Chang'an City, how to settle this army became the key to the problem.
Of course, I have to say here that Li Er is such a proud person.
It stands to reason that it is impossible for this Changming army to enter Chang'an City.
It's not that Datang is afraid of anything, but the rules.
But Li Er is trying his best to disagree, since people are here, how can they not let people see the prosperity of Chang'an City?
For this reason, he also changed Xue Wanche to the general of the right guard, and at this time, Xue Wanche with the 20,000 soldiers under his command was handing over security matters after handing over to Xue Rengui.
In this regard, whether it is Changsun Chong or Xue Rengui and others, they have no opinion, but they are just a little surprised.
After everything was handed over, someone reported to Li Xiaogong and Changsun Chong respectively, and the two glanced at each other invariably.
Not long after, the mission set off again and approached Chang'an City.
This time, though, the team is even bigger.
"You stinky boy, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you're actually on par with the old man?" On the way, Li Xiaogong joked with a smile.
The eldest grandson shook his head modestly and said, "The prince actually knows what's going on, so don't make fun of the kid." ”
Beside them, Li Tai looked back at a carriage from time to time and asked curiously, "Cousin, who is in that carriage?" ”
He'd found out since last night, but was too embarrassed to open the carriage to take a look.
When the eldest grandson Chong heard this, he glanced back, and said with a smile: "It's Wei Shuyu's kid, maybe he has a cold wind, and he has been lying down for the past two days." But don't bother, the accompanying team doctor has seen it, and it's no big deal. ”
"He's back, too?" Li Xiaogong was a little surprised when he heard this, although there were many noble sons who came back this time, but except for Changsun Chong, almost all of them were from the Changming Army, and even Gao Chunxing and Xiao Yue didn't come back, but I didn't expect this guy to come back.
"I heard that Duke Wei has not been in good health in the past two years, so His Royal Highness asked him to come back and take a look, after all, he is different from us, after all, he is the only seedling in the family." Changsun Chong explained.
At this time, he was still very excited, not only him, but Cheng Chuliang and Fang Yiai were all like this, and they were timid.
I didn't understand this sentence before, but when they really left Chang'an, they finally had their own understanding.
There was a conversation without a word, and in a short time, everyone came to the city gate.
Because they knew in advance the enormity of the mission, the city gate had been temporarily closed today, and looking at the familiar Chang'an City, Changsun Chong and the others could not suppress the excitement in their hearts.
"It's finally back!" Fang Yiai suddenly roared.
The last time he came back, it was sneaky, but this time, he came back openly.
The rest of the people are actually pretty much the same.
The most special one is probably Yao Da.
Looking at the familiar word Chang'an, he had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
It's back, yes, it's back......
"Into town!" As Li Xiaogong shouted, everyone also restrained their emotions and rushed in.
When they entered the city gate, there were more people on both sides of the street, and they naturally did not come to greet anyone, but just curious.
For a while, looking at this huge mission, people on both sides of the street began to talk about it.
Changsun Chong and the others listened to their discussions, and the joy in their hearts was needless to say.
This is a sense of accomplishment that the family could not bring them before!
Li Tai and Li Zhi, who were mixed in the mission team, were also very happy, after all, they had never seen this meeting.
Of course, why Li Tai was mixed in it, that's a lot.
When the front of the mission turned into Suzaku Street, there was still a long queue slowly entering the city at the city gate, which made the people watching the excitement exclaim.
"How many people are there in this mission?"
The officials of each class who were in charge of the order said: "Let's wait, I heard that the Ming mission, tens of thousands of people, walking on the road for dozens of miles, that is, my Chang'an City, but any other country, which city can receive such a huge mission?" ”
"That's right." Speaking of this, some people immediately laughed and said, "Don't look at them on the road for dozens of miles, but it is only an embassy of tens of thousands of people, and a Suzaku Street is all blocked." ”
This is their pride as a Datang person.
Suzaku Street, about ten zhang wide and more than ten miles long, how can a district mission not be able to plug it in?
Of course, having said that, they were equally surprised by the size of the mission.
And on Suzaku Street, Cheng Chumo looked at his brother, which was called envy.
Like him, there are also the eldest grandson family, Li Jing's family, Cheng Yanjin's family, Li Daozong's family, and at this time, the second ancestor of the Xungui family in Chang'an is looking for their familiar figures in the mission.
"That's my second brother's Fang Yiai...... "A half-grown boy who looks like Fang Yiai has seven points" shouted.
"That's my brother!"
……
In fact, there is no need for them to shout, Fang Yiai and these guys are all searching for their brothers in the crowd, of course, there is no trace on their faces.
It's a bit of a bone, but you have to pretend to be good, if you really want to make a fool of yourself, it's not to come back to show off, but to be ashamed.
In the crowd, there were also people from Cui and Lu Kefu.
Their gaze is different from that of others.
The common people stared at the rarities on the carriages, the nobles stared at their brothers, and they stared at the most inconspicuous people in the mission.
With such a huge mission and so many people, could there really be ordinary people?
This is an envoy's mission!
Do you really think you can just make up a number?
Of course, there are also Li Er's secret spy divisions in the crowd, and their eyes are even more different, staring at those Chang Ming Jun who are not very old, but have resolute eyes.
It is this army, although it has not been in existence for a long time, but it has created the most deadly war in recent decades, who would dare to underestimate it?
"Chang'an City has changed." In the team, Yao Da shook his head and said to his uncle Sun Yu beside him.
Uncle Sun Yu didn't pay attention to him, he came once, and he still came in in the dark, and he knew what a fart did he change?
He was also looking around at this time, as a professional warmonger, he was thinking about how to take Chang'an City in the fastest and most efficient way, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "It's a little difficult......
Yao Da didn't understand what he was saying, he was still immersed in his own memories, and he didn't know what he saw and said to Yao Er on the other side: "Do you remember that over there?" Did we first meet His Highness there? ”
Yao Er glanced at it, nodded, and said, "That's right, that's it, how many years have it been in a flash, I've been thinking all these years, why did we go to Jingyang back then?" ”
Hearing his words, Yao Er was stunned for a moment.
He also remembered, and looked at the place where they first met Li Chengqian.
Is everything really a coincidence?
On the other side of the team, Xue Wanche and Xue Rengui were in parallel.
Maybe because of the same surname, the two are quite familiar with each other.
is also a military general, so he naturally prefers to look at the other party and his subordinates.
But just looking at it this way, Xue Wanche also somewhat understands why the Changming Army under Xue Rengui can become famous in one battle.
At the moment, he also smiled and said: "General Xue's command of the army is really worthy of his reputation, if nothing else, let's just say that this ability to train soldiers, General Xue is also among the best among the people that the old man knows." ”
As a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty, the geometry of an army can be seen from many details.
Xue Rengui smiled when he heard this: "General Xue is serious, the kid is just a vulgar person in the countryside, how can he know what to do to train soldiers, but it is just the family history of the thousands of commanders in the army." ”
The first time they met, even if they were sympathetic, Xue Rengui would not show his bottom.
Besides, Chang Mingjun's drills, hehe, have really nothing to do with him, in the final analysis, it's just a supervision.
"General Xue is polite." Xue Wanche said, "After all the handover of the mission is completed, the old man will have a banquet for General Xue and his officers and soldiers of the Changming Army in the army!" They are all people in the army, and there are not so many vain things. ”
His task is to entertain the Changming army, of course, the hospitality is only on the surface.
Xue Rengui said with a smile: "Since General Xue is gracious, the kid doesn't dare to brush off the general's kindness." ”
After the temptation, they also had the intention of testing the reality of the Tang army this time.
What the future will look like, no one can say.
It is also advisable to do some preparation in advance.
Not to mention, tens of thousands of missions, there are really tens of thousands of hearts and minds at this time.
Even the rest of the mission, who didn't make a sound, were extremely active.
Of course, there are also people who are dazzled by such a prosperous Chang'an City......
Come on, scold me a few words to loosen my muscles, there are too few comments, I'm looking for excitement!
