Hanhai Hexi 4
On this day, the group lived in the city of Guazhou, but heard that Liangzhou issued a follow-up visit: "There is a monk Xuanzang, who wants to enter Xifan, and the state and county where he is located should be strictly arrested." ”
Li Shouyi sighed: "I don't know who urged my father!" ”
Li Daozong nodded and said: "Ling Zunxiang is famous for his Hui Zheng, and because of the famine of the people, he sold the horses he rode to help the poor and weak. After the extermination of the auxiliary princess, hundreds of slaves and maids were given because of their merits, and Ling Zun could not bear to take the well-dressed children as lowly subordinates, so they were all released. ”
At this time, he slowly shook his head: "Now you have to deal with the aggressiveness of such officials!" ”
Li Shouyi hurriedly thanked him: "The younger brother thanked His Highness for his praise on behalf of his father!" ”
He bowed down and said, "Now I can do things for Your Majesty with His Highness, and I have to taste what I want!" ”
The name of Yumen Pass is because the ancient merchants imported jade from the Western Regions into the Middle Earth, and most of them took the road here, so it is called.
This is a necessary place on the Northern Silk Road, and caravans and envoys gather.
Since the five of them came to this trade hub of beautiful stones in the Western Regions, they naturally had to travel around and take the beautiful jade in Khotan, so as to fulfill the duty of "Prince Sun Gongzi" in the eyes of the world.
They even deliberately publicized it so that passers-by would know that the governor of Lingzhou was the king of the city and county, and the two sons of the military department who were still in the school and the two sons of the Liangzhou governor would go out to hunt the next day.
In this way, naturally no one can imagine that there is an "entourage" among this line, that is, the monk Xuanzang who is being pursued by the governor of Liangzhou.
And a moment earlier, the old man who had delivered the old horses had introduced the "entourage" to a group of camel merchants, and had them travel westward together.
So early the next morning, Xuanzang and the old horse who knew the way went out of the customs with the caravan and headed northwest to Yiwu.
The five princes and grandsons were freshly dressed and angry, armed with eagles and dogs, and went out of the customs in a high-profile manner surrounded by many retinues.
Outside the pass is the dark water, which is today's Shule River.
Beyond the underworld is already the chaotic domain between the Tang Dynasty and the Eastern and Western Turks, and the territories of the three parties are chaotic with each other.
The five of them had no intention of causing a dispute, so they stopped at the waterfront.
On the other side, the Gobi Sea and the yellow sand are reckless, and the sand dunes in the distance are ochre-red.
The five of them watched Xuanzang and the camel caravan cross the water and gradually drift away, until the place where the reckless Gobi and the ochre red sand dunes were connected, and gradually disappeared between the lines......
After seeing Xuanzang go away, the five of them decided to go west along the south bank of the Stygian Water.
From this to the west about 400 miles, there is another Han Pass site, which is the second Yumen Pass built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
After Huo Qubing took down the Hexi Corridor, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "listed four counties, according to two passes", "four counties" is the four counties of Hexi, and "two passes" are the two successive Yumen Passes.
Both passes were built in the south of the secondary pass to form a horn to defend the momentum.
The first sub-pass of Yumen Pass is Suoyang City, which is named after its abundance of Chinese medicine Suoyang.
The second secondary pass of Yumen Pass is Yangguan, which is named because it is located in the south of Yumen Pass.
The five of them went west, and after "hunting" for two or three days along the way, they saw the Chang'an warehouse built by the Han Dynasty for the storage of grain on the shore of the dark water.
From here about 20 miles to the south, is Shazhou, where the Han Dynasty and today are called Dunhuang.
Although the Dunhuang Grottoes, which are famous all over the world, were excavated during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, they did not reach their peak until the Wu Zetian period.
What's more, the time series has entered the middle of March, and the group has no time to visit the grottoes, so they return to Liangzhou at the same time.
As for the migratory bird migration mentioned by the guide on the way out, I didn't have a chance to appreciate it.
Li Daozong immediately galloped to the northeast to Lingzhou, while Li Dejian and Li Dexuan rushed back to Chang'an in the southeast.
Li Dejian and Li Dexuan rushed back to Chang'an to resume their lives, and they wanted to rest for a few days.
only found that not only at home, but also in the entire Jingshi, there was a faint atmosphere of slaughter.
Originally......
Nearly two months ago, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Yaoshi, Wang Qi, and Wei Zheng took the position to form a new prime minister team.
This means that none of the prime ministers in the Li Yuan period remained in the center, and Li Shimin completely controlled the court.
What's more, Li Yuan's closest old comrade-in-arms, Pei Lian, was dismissed from his post and not even allowed to stay in Beijing, ordered to return to his hometown, and then exiled.
This means that Li Shimin's prestige as the monarch of the Tang Dynasty has been deeply entrenched, and it is far from being shaken by the emperor.
When Li Dejian's brothers returned to Chang'an, the Hongyi Palace, that is, the West Palace, where Li Shimin once lived, had been sorted out and was ready to "invite" Emperor Li Yuan to move in.
At this time, the two of them realized that their father's request to come back before the end of March was actually so that Li Daozong could rush to Lingzhou in time.
After all, such a major event must be guarded against the Turks taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
In April of the third year of Zhenguan, Emperor Li Yuan "issued an edict" and renamed Hongyi Palace as Da'an Palace.
After praising Li Shimin's political achievements, he immediately announced that he would move to Da'an Palace.
This palace is located in the northwest of the entire palace city, no, the most low-lying northwest of the entire Chang'an City.
At the beginning, Li Yuan "gave a new palace room with the great merit of King Qin", built this palace in the north of Taiji Palace and the west of the inner garden, formed a district of its own, and moved Li Shimin in.
This not only kept Li Shimin's palace away from the court, but also allowed him to live in the lowest humidity and heat in the entire Chang'an City.
Now, Li Yuan himself has moved into this "self-contained area" that was "newly built with great merit".
From this point on, Li Shimin officially entered the Taiji Palace.
This month, looking at the sun, Pharmacist Li and his friends from the three provinces walked into the Taiji Hall together.
It is no longer the Emperor Li Yuan who sits on the Dragon Palace, but Li Shimin today.
The mood is extremely excited, and it is not only Pharmacist Li.
Among the prime minister's team at this time, Fang Xuanling was the earliest.
He has always been sleepy all night, fearing that he will lose something.
As for Du Ruhui and him, the two are the most compatible.
The emperor and Fang Xuanling conspired to draw the country, and Fang Xuanling often responded: "If it is obscure, it cannot be decided." ”
When Du Ruhui arrived, he said: "You should use Xuanling's strategy." The so-called "sheng chime homonym, but Fang and Du", Fang Xuanling is good at building a good plan, Du Ruhui can break the big thing, which is the later generations praised the "Fang Mou Du Break", thousands of years of envy and admiration, endless.
Li Shimin believes that the first position of prime minister is to seek wise men and appoint them according to their talents.
As for listening to the resignation, the day is not time-to-give, and it is not helpful for the court to seek talents, so an edict was issued: "The details of the book belong to the left and right, but the person who should perform the major events is the servant." ”
Pharmacist Li talked to Chuchen about this matter and said, "That's very good. After the elimination of Beijing officials more than two years ago, Fang Xiang and Du Xiang did many things at the same time, which was really too tiring. ”
Pharmacist Li has long seen that Du Ruhui wears many hats, and his mental and physical strength has been overdrawn.
Since he is related to Du Fu, he will be more concerned about this future in-law.
Izuchen stared at her husband deeply and asked, "Are you really just looking at it like this?" ”
Pharmacist Li also stared deeply at his beloved wife: "Could it be that you don't just look at it like this?" ”
Izumi still stared at her husband and nodded slowly.
