Chapter 464: At the Lantern Festival Banquet

The little son's eyes were still filled with tears and she was frightened, her mouth opened several times, and finally she spoke again, "Brother-in-law." ”

The Lizheng Hall was quiet, and only the little lord in the queen's arms was still crying.

The palace maids around were lying on the ground, and the princess of King Jin was nearly two years old, and she didn't call anyone until now, and the first time she called was not her father, nor her mother, but her brother-in-law.

"Queen, the little princess will speak." The palace maid bowed and said.

Zhang Yang realized the situation and raised the little son again, "It turns out that you didn't know how to speak before." ”

Finally, the little son howled in the face of this fierce face, and Zhang Yang had no choice but to hand her over to the palace maid here.

The queen handed over the child to Li Yue, and only stopped crying in her mother's arms.

Under the appeasement of the palace maid, the little son stopped crying, she still dodged and didn't dare to look at Zhang Yang.

Empress Eldest Sun sighed: "This child has not spoken until now, and ordinary children will shout after they are a year old. ”

Li Yue comforted: "There are also children who speak at the age of two, so the queen mother doesn't have to worry too much." ”

The laughter of children came from outside the hall, and Zhang Yang walked outside the hall and was melancholy, what a big family this is.

Faced with so many younger brothers and sisters, Zhang Yang thought about how to cultivate such a child.

Li Zhi is a very curious child, and Gao Yang can't see what talent she has.

Li Lizhi is two years older than Xiao Wu, this girl's talent is not as good as Xiao Wu, but she is studious.

There is also Dongyang......

And also......

Not long after, Concubine Yang also came with Li Ke.

Zhang Yang saluted Concubine Yang slightly and looked at Li Ke.

Li Ke stood up straight, "Brother-in-law, the training has been quite effective recently. ”

This guy spoke as if he was reporting on the military situation.

"It's good to be productive."

"Dare to ask my brother-in-law, is there any other way to train?"

"Have you made the soldiers read and write?"

Speaking of this question, Li Ke's expression was difficult, "Back to my brother-in-law, the general needs the general's permission to find the master's house, and the master is difficult to find." ”

Concubine Yang had already entered the palace and greeted the queen.

Zhang Yang touched the stubble on his chin, and the little son cried when he saw him, could it be that I really looked too fierce?

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu, am I very fierce?"

Li Ke was a little stunned for a moment when he asked about this sudden question, and replied after a long time: "My brother-in-law is not fierce, he looks like a literati." ”

In front of others, there will be some comfort in the words.

Li Ke is a different child, he has been talking in the army since he was a child, and saying that one is not the rule in the army, what should be what is.

He was a kid who couldn't lie.

Zhang Yang touched the stubble on his chin and nodded again.

"Brother-in-law, how do I go about finding my master?"

It's like asking how to get food into your mouth with chopsticks.

"Let's go to Chang'an City to find it." Zhang Yang replied lightly.

Li Ke also blinked.

is still a simple child, the same age as Li Tai.

Not all children can live as shrewdly as that little fat man.

Zhang Yang sighed: "There are a lot of masters who sell their reputations, it is estimated that they will be deceived, I will let others arrange one for you, if you can't enter the Wei Mansion, you can pull the soldiers out to practice, and let the master teach outside the school field." ”

"Brother-in-law Xie's advice." Li Ke bowed.

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu must remember that in addition to the usual training, the supplement of cultural knowledge must not be left behind, at least so that the soldiers in their hands can read, write, and read articles."

"Is it useful?"

Zhang Yang gasped when asked, it was very tiring to deal with a shrewd little fat man like Li Tai, and it was as tiring to communicate with an honest and honest person like the prince, not to mention the outrageous King of Shu in front of him.

Can't the sons of the Heavenly Khan be a little more balanced?

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu, there is no other reason for them to read and write, it can make them smarter, for example, you can let them see the Red Mansion, let them see the sinister nature of the human heart, so that the group of killers will not be easily deceived, and they will not be fooled by the enemy if they go behind enemy lines in the future."

Zhang Yang nodded again, "That's it, don't ask, I'll beat you up if you ask again." ”

Li Ke stood aside silently, wanting to say that the Red Chamber is a banned book, is it really okay to do this in the world?

After a while, an old eunuch walked in small steps, and he stood outside the hall and said, "Empress, the Taiji Hall is ready. ”

Empress Changsun took Li Yue and Concubine Yang to the outside of the hall and went to the Taiji Hall with a group of children.

The queen walked at the front, and Li Yue walked on the side.

Looking at himself again, Zhang Yang found himself walking in a group of children, which was particularly conspicuous.

All the way to the Ganlu Palace, Li Chengqian came out of the hall first.

"Zhang Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time." Li Chengqian stepped forward quickly.

"The last time I saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was just before Chinese New Year's Eve, and it wasn't too long."

"Yu Gu said, there is no filial piety in the East Palace, Da'an and you are really lonely, and Gu often thinks of the way you and Xu Xiaode argued."

Zhang Yang said wistfully: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince misunderstood, I didn't pay attention to Xu Yushi when his mouth was broken, he was arguing alone, and it had nothing to do with me." ”

Li Chengqian smiled awkwardly and rudely, "That's right, Gu still remembers your annoying expression." ”

When Li Shimin walked out of the Ganlu Palace, everyone continued to walk towards the Taiji Palace.

Zhang Yang and the crown prince walked all the way and asked in a low voice, "How's the progress?" ”

Li Chengqian also replied in a low voice: "There are occasional letters and exchanges. ”

"Occasionally?"

"About twice a month."

"Is it really all about missing?"

Li Chengqian's expression was troubled, "Lone should be cautious, the words you explained have always been remembered." ”

When I walked to the Taiji Hall, I heard the noise in the hall.

With the eunuch shouting in front of the hall, the hall was quiet again.

Zhang Yang followed into the hall, and the hall was full of people on both sides.

The crown prince walked straight to his place, and Zhang Yang glanced at the crowd looking for where he was going to sit.

Finally, there was a violent cough in the hall, and when he heard this, he saw Li Xiaogong, and there was a vacant seat next to him.

Everyone sat on the floor, and some people didn't sit well.

Zhang Yang stepped over some legs and feet and came to the vacant seat next to Li Xiaogong and sat down.

Li Yue was holding the child in her arms and wanted to sit next to the queen.

Seeing his daughter-in-law sit down in front, Zhang Yang withdrew his gaze.

"Zhang Shangshu, you and I meet again."

The voice came from behind him, Zhang Yang looked back and saw that it was Ma Zhou, a guy with a round face who was still fat, and turned his head to look at Li Xiaogong, "Is Yushi also sitting in this position?" ”

After confirming it again, the people sitting here are obviously the children of the clan, or they are the same horses as themselves.

Li Xiaogong took a bite of the radish, "Ma Zhou is a poor child, Your Majesty thought that he was humble and studious, and his bearing was extraordinary, so he arranged a place for him here." ”

Zhang Yang glanced back at him again, and said to himself: "What an extraordinary bearing." ”

"I have heard the name of Zhang Shangshu for a long time, and I can only see it today."

Zhang Yang looked for the sound again, and there was a person in front of him who was similar to his youth, and he couldn't help asking, "Dare to ask in person?" ”

"Tang Shanzhi, Tang Jian, who lost his food because Zhang Shangshu was admonished in the Ganlu Palace, and was relegated to his hometown after being grounded for several months, is his father."

Listening to the other party's self-introduction, Zhang Yang sat melancholy, this seating arrangement is really interesting.

Li Xiaogong said again: "Knowing your difficulties, the old man coughs because he hopes you don't sit here, who knows that your kid will be wrong." ”

Zhang Yang's face was expressionless, and he didn't know how to say it with all kinds of feelings in his heart, "Except for the arrangement, is it all a misunderstanding?" ”

"Quack, quack, ......," Li Xiaogong was still chewing on radish in his mouth.

Ma Zhou piled up a smile, "Zhang Shangshu was able to help the Tang Dynasty recover the Hexi Corridor at a young age, which is really good. ”

Zhang Yang replied in a low voice: "I'm just lobbying, it's the king of Hejian County who is presiding over this matter, and the people who do the work are many important ministers in the court." ”

Tang Shanzhi said with a smile: "Is it a coincidence to recover the four towns of Anxi?" ”

Zhang Yang's face was embarrassed, "Everyone in Chang'an knows that I, Zhang Yang, is not involved in government affairs, is lazy, has a strange temperament and is withdrawn, even the Foreign Affairs Yuan will not go if he can, does Brother Tang deliberately want to make things difficult for me?" ”

Tang Shanzhi explained with a smile: "My father deserves to make a mistake, and His Majesty has left the status of my father." ”

"Brother Tang is reasonable."

While talking, Zhang Yang looked at the pots of dishes in front of him, including chopped radishes, a large boiled leg of lamb, and it seemed that some salt was sprinkled.

There was even a garlic clove.

A group of maiko from the palace entered the temple, and the bells rang and they danced with their sleeves waved.

Then he looked sideways at Li Xiaogong, he watched the dance chew a mouthful of garlic, tear off a piece of meat and put it in his mouth to eat with relish.

Ma Zhou said with a smile: "Even if Zhang Shangshu is not involved in government affairs, the Foreign Affairs Yuan has made a lot of contributions, but he is still a county marquis." ”

The leg of lamb is very woody, and there is no oil and water, so the taste is not good.

Zhang Yang chewed the radish in his mouth, "What if it's a county marquis?" It's a lot of work, but it's just a matter of time, life is so interesting, isn't it? ”

Ma Zhou couldn't speak for a long time.

Tang Shanzhi nodded, "Life is indeed very interesting, Zhang Shangshu admires it for his open-mindedness." ”

Ma Zhou said again: "Zhang Shangshu is alone, and there is no one to help him after all. ”

Seeing the end of a dance, the palace maids retreated, and Zhang Yang replied in a low voice: "How good it is to live alone, at least you don't have to worry about whether your distant relatives at home will commit the great crime of the Jiu clan and be implicated." ”

Li Xiaogong shook his head and smiled, and then looked at Ma Zhou and Tang Shanzhi like a fish in their throats, this is the end of talking to this kid.

He often makes it impossible to refute one or two simple sentences, but after thinking about it carefully, he still feels that there is some truth.

Cheng Yanjin carried the horse lance, planning to dance the horse lance to help the fun.

There were also many generals present, and the killing of the generals had never read any books, and they couldn't appreciate this dance.

With His Majesty's consent, Cheng Biting Jin danced the horse lance and used a move to point the horse lance directly at Wei Zheng.

Just for a short stay, Cheng Biting Jin continued to swing.

Seat ......

Ma Zhou coughed his throat, "Zhang Shangshu, Xia Guan thinks that even if Tian Khan Rende commits any major crime, it will not implicate the Nine Clans, and there are very few people who can be punished by the Nine Clans since ancient times. ”

The Lantern Festival has been going on for an hour.

Li Xiaogong looked at the leg of mutton and frowned, "Not to your liking?" ”

Zhang Yang explained: "This leg of lamb still has blood streaks inside, and it looks like it is not cooked enough. ”

As soon as the words fell, a big hand reached out and took away the leg of mutton, and Li Xiaogong gnawed fiercely.

The horse lance in Cheng Yanjin's hand was still dancing, and this time the tip of the spear fell in front of Wei Zheng again.

Several times are obviously deliberate.

Cheng Yanjin's face almost had the words Xiang Zhuang dancing with the sword.

Again, the tip of the spear fell in front of Wei Zheng's eyes.

The clay man also has three points of anger, not to mention Wei Zheng, under the eyes of everyone, I saw Zheng Gong shoot the case and leave, "Cheng Biting Jin, you deceive people too much." ”

Cheng Biting Jin snorted coldly: "I didn't hurt you Wei Zheng at all." ”

Wei Zheng breathed heavily, "Didn't the old man impeach you for killing the cow, didn't you want to murder the old man in the palace?" ”

Everyone's eyes were on the two of them.

Cheng Yanjin put down the other end of the horse lance, or let it go, this one was placed in front of Fang Xuanling.

provoked Fang Xuanling to look at the sharp spear tip, and was also shocked, and shouted angrily: "Old horseman, dare to bully my literati!" ”

A good Lantern Festival banquet is about to quarrel.

Li Shimin shouted: "Shut up! Know, you step aside! ”

Cheng Yanjin saluted and glared at Wei Zheng again, handed back the horse lance to the guards in front of the palace, and he returned to his seat.

A eunuch bowed down and entered the hall, "Your Majesty, the Tibetan envoy is here." ”

Li Shimin nodded and motioned for people to come in.

Zhang Yang moved to Li Xiaogong's side, "King of Hejian County? There is also a performance by the Tibetans at this dinner? ”

Li Xiaogong nodded.

Zhang Yang was curious again: "What can they perform?" Isn't it a whirlwind dance? ”

Li Xiaogong swallowed the mutton in his mouth, "The old man doesn't know much either. ”

raised his head and looked at Li Shimin's position again, and also saw the queen, the queen was next to her daughter-in-law, and the baby in swaddling clothes did not cry, it seemed that she was asleep.

A short Tibetan man walked into the temple.

Zhang Yang looked at the people who came more and more familiarly, and after thinking about it a few times, he remembered that in the middle of the year, in Qujiangchi, he was the one who took the test for a long time.

At the beginning, Tubo was defeated in the first war, but Songtsen Gampo had not yet declared himself a vassal to the Tang Dynasty, and he originally said that he would come to the court this year.

According to the information of the Foreign Affairs Yuan, Songtsen Gampo is still building the Potala Palace.

The Tibetan man took out a water bladder and told it in Guanzhong dialect with a strange accent: "When the water bladder breaks, the water will flow out, and the subordinates have a way to keep the water from flowing out, I don't know if you know this method?" ”

As he spoke, he took out an iron needle and punctured the water bladder, and the water flowed out of the pouch and fell on the ground in the Taiji Hall.

The needle is very thin, and the hole that pokes out is also very small.

Niu Jin Dalang said: "What is the way to keep the water from flowing out?" ”

The Tibetan envoy had a smile on his face, "If you can crack it, and your wisdom can be higher than that of your subordinates, then go and ask Tubo Zanpu to come to Chang'an and congratulate the Heavenly Khan." ”

With guns and sticks in his words, everyone present has no good impression of this Tubo person, what does it mean that wisdom is higher than him?

If he hadn't been stopped by his own son, Cheng Yanjin would have wanted to kill this arrogant Tibetan envoy now.

"This Songtsen Gampo is so good that he dares to send someone to provoke us like this." Ma Zhou gritted his teeth.
