Views:

His Majesty Li Er's birthday is over, and the New Year is coming in a blink of an eye. Li Yuanying sneaked around to the homes of people he knew, brazenly begging for New Year's money. At this time, he didn't say that he was from the second generation of Li Er, but that he was young and unmarried, so he should ask for auspiciousness.

After coming, Li Yuanying asked for calligraphy treasures by the way, saying that he was going back to hold a calligraphy and painting exhibition and print some copybooks for the students of the academy. It would be even better if you can draw. Give some pictures to help the helpless children in Tengzhou, a backward area.

In short, Li Yuanying took all the benefits he could ask for, and harvested a batch of talents that he missed last time, and then he obediently returned to the palace to stay.

His Majesty Li Er knew that Li Yuanying had gone out to give "New Year's greetings" to others, so he called him to him and asked him what he had the audacity to ask for.

Li Yuanying said unhappily: "How can this be called cheeky? I am young, shouldn't I go to pay New Year's greetings to everyone? I brought a New Year's gift, and it is normal for them to return a little!" Anyway, he never mentioned himself. Usually relying on His Majesty Li Er's younger brother calling him "Old Li" and "Little Yan", of course you have to treat yourself like a child at such a critical moment.

His Majesty Li Er asked again, and Li Yuanying took out a long gift list and spread it out to His Majesty Li Er. He got a bargain and said obediently: "This is all written down by Huang Li, so I am impatient to remember these. Isn't it just reciprocity!"

After reading it, His Majesty Li Er decided to stick to his original opinion: This kid is really thick-skinned.

If someone is a master of calligraphy, he wants manuscripts, if someone is a master of Danqing, he wants paintings, if someone has talent in his family, he will go to borrow someone, this is simply to beg for all the good things in other people's houses!

Li Yuanying was not shy at all, and let His Majesty Li Er look at him with the eyes of "Why do I have such a bad brother like you". When His Majesty Li Er handed back the gift list to him, he ran away in a hurry, for fear that His Majesty Li Er would snatch away the treasure he had painstakingly searched for.

On the day of the Shangyuan Festival, His Majesty Li Er had already asked the Ministry of Rites to make preparations to stop, and issued a marriage decree to Gao Yang and Lu Zhaolin, leaving Gao Yang to stay in Chang'an to be married. Gao Yang had known from Li Yuanying that His Majesty Li Er had promised to grant them a marriage. During the Chinese New Year, he had been looking forward to it and was nervous. When the marriage decree finally came down, she jumped three feet high and invited Sizi and the others to watch the stars. When they got together downstairs, the younger ones had a couple of drinks under Li Yuanying's supervision. Their faces were flushed red, and their eyes were even brighter like stars.

Li Yuanying was also happy for Gao Yang, but he was a little depressed at the same time.

Cheng Yang, who was close to his age, was married long ago, and Gao Yang, who was his age, was also about to marry, and he and his younger sister Shu hadn't gotten married yet.

It's just that he said that before he left Beijing, he said that he would not get married. Now that he hinted a little, His Majesty Li Er had an expression of "Didn't you say you want your younger sister to show off her strengths?", which made Li Yuanying have something to say not out. Sister Shu is happy every day, and he is also very happy, but Gao Yang and the others are married, and he is the only one who can't sleep with Sister Shu in his arms. It's so annoying!

Li Yuanying sighed in his heart for a while, and soon followed Gao Yang and the others to run up to the Star Observation Tower to see the Yuandeng scene.

The Star Observation Tower has a very good view, and you can see the night of Chang'an City at a glance. Li Yuanying and a group of nieces stood next to the railing to watch the lights, and while they were not paying attention, they quietly reached out to hold Wei Shu's hand.

Sizi and the others were all by the side, Wei Shu turned her head to secretly look at Li Yuanying, telling Li Yuanying not to mess around. But as soon as he touched Li Yuanying's bright eyes, Wei Shu was defeated, and with slightly red ears, she shook Li Yuanying's warm hand.

After the Shangyuan Festival, Li Yuanying will return to Tengzhou. The momentum of Li Yuanying's departure from the capital this time is huge, but it is not small, and there are carts of treasures, horse-drawn carts and people following. Naturally, the common people would not know about Li Yuanying's sneaking out to sea, they only thought that His Majesty Li Er had a good relationship with Li Yuanying and called him back for the New Year. Seeing Li Yuanying's convoy, the people naturally sighed again, thinking that His Majesty Li Er was really kind to Li Yuanying, and he gave so many rewards for coming back!

Changsun Wuji and the others wanted to vomit blood when they heard this. These things were what Li Yuanying wanted to leave from their house, and they were not gifts from His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er sent Li Yuanying's family to pay New Year's greetings, and turned around and said to them: "If you have given Yuanying so many good things, I don't need to reward him."

These brothers did it on purpose!

They gave the things, and now it's good. The people said that His Majesty Li Er and Li Yuanying are brothers, and they give good things by the cart!

Who has the face to clarify this kind of thing

Changsun Wuji and the others now only hoped that Li Yuanying would cause less trouble, and His Majesty Li Er would be less concerned about letting Li Yuanying return to Beijing, so as not to cause them to bleed again and again.

After Li Yuanying slaughtered the big family, he took Wei Shu back to Tengzhou in awe, not at all conscious of being caught and beaten this time.

On the way, Wei Shu took over the gift list from Huang Ying and Huang Li. When she saw the large list of treasures on it, she felt sorry for Changsun Wuji and Yan Liben. When she stopped to rest in the evening, she asked someone to unpack and pack some extra thick paper so as not to damage things on the way. This is a baby that if one is broken, the second one can't be found!

Compared with Li Yuanying's happiness, Li Tai's life is not so wonderful.

Since he went to Korea, his mentality has also changed a lot. He stopped drinking and drinking every day, and would go out to inspect the fief from time to time, which is a bit like a feudal king should be. But Quan Wanji didn't stop, Quan Wanji still conscientiously picked his thorns, which really annoyed Li Tai. Fortunately, his wife and son often relieved him, otherwise Li Tai would have risked Quan Wanji's return to Beijing to sue him and beat him up!

Hearing that Li Yuanying went back to Tengzhou with a long motorcade, Li Tai felt sour, and murmured to Yan Shi: "Father is really partial, obviously he was punished when he returned to Beijing, and it is good to reward him so much." thing."

He had thought of competing with the crown prince for power, but didn't that fail? At the end of the year, His Majesty Li Er celebrated his birthday, and he could only go to Beijing for the birthday ceremony, but he could not go back.

Yan Shi rubbed his forehead for him, and comforted him softly: "I heard that Uncle Yao built a seaport to the east, and Emperor Father probably values this."

Li Tai snorted and said, "I brought so many good things, don't be targeted halfway." Li Tai didn't say this out of thin air. Thirty cases, but that doesn't mean everything is peaceful. It is said that money touches people's hearts, and some bandits who can't get out of their nests in the mountains know that Li Yuanying passed by with so many treasures, maybe they will have the idea of grabbing them for the rest of their lives!

I don't know if God thinks that Li Yuanying's life is too smooth, or thinks that he has treated Li Tai too badly. This time, Li Tai's unfortunate words are true: Li Yuanying was blocked by bandits when he passed a valley road!

Li Yuanying went well last time, never thought that he would encounter such a thing, this time he knew that he was surrounded by two people, and he was stunned for a moment. Don't they all say that the world is peaceful now? How come there are still people who fall into the grass and become bandits, living such a life of gaining money with their lives!

Li Yuanying asked people to prepare their bows and arrows and waited for the battle. He turned his head to comfort Wei Shu, but saw Wei Shu standing beside him without saying a word, neither afraid nor hiding.

Li Yuanying swallowed back his comforting words, looked at the gloomy sky, and took a bow and arrow with Wei Shu. He said: "These people come here strangely, I don't think they are necessarily here for money."

Not for money, but for people. Although Li Yuanying wasn't a good tempered person, he didn't seem to have really offended anyone. Wei Shu would rather that these people came here just for money! If it was really aimed at Li Yuanying himself, it would be terrible. Losing money and things is not a big deal. If the other party insists on killing them, they will not have an advantage in the situation of being in the urn!

Wei Shu held the bow and arrow tightly.

If anyone dared to hurt Li Yuanying, she would kill them first!

Although they have only used bows and arrows in riding and archery lessons, and have never even shot decent prey, she dares to kill anyone who dares to harm Li Yuanying!

The guard in charge of the investigation brought bad news to Li Yuanying: "Your Highness, there are trebuchets on the mountain."

This shows that these people came prepared, and they came for the purpose of keeping Li Yuanying here forever!

Li Yuanying ordered without hesitation: "Those things are lost, those who are not good at bowing horses get into the cart, and those who are good at bowing horses get their bows and mount horses. Let's protect the female family and rush out first!" No matter what is going on outside, rush out of the encirclement Better than being passively stuck in a valley. He didn't believe it anymore, these bandits could still get thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty! Although there were only 200 guards escorting them back to Tengzhou this time, these 200 guards were all elites who had seen blood, they were not comparable to ordinary soldiers and bandits, and rushing out of the valley was not a problem.

Li Yuanying gave an order, and everyone quickly abandoned the heavy carriage on the spot, cut off the thick ropes at the joints, mounted their bows and mounted their horses to protect the carriage with the female relatives in the middle. Li Yuanying didn't hide in the car, and took the lead in rushing towards Taniguchi.

Seeing Li Yuanying taking the lead, all the guards' eyes turned hot, and they hated their incompetence even more, they chased after him relentlessly, shooting arrows straight at the bandit's throat.

Those bandits who blocked the entrance of the valley were also ferocious men who licked blood with their blades. Seeing Li Yuanying in brocade robes leaping forward, they had no time to react. Didn't it mean that Li Yuanying is a dandy prince who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun? If you are really a dude, how dare you rush to the forefront!

These bandits haven't been shocked for too long, the sharp arrows have pierced their most vulnerable throats, and they only opened their eyes until they died.

Li Yuanying rushed out of the valley with the fastest speed.

The people lurking on the mountain immediately threw the boulders they had prepared earlier into the bottom of the valley, but it was too late, only the carriage abandoned by Li Yuanying was left in the valley, and no one was left behind.

Since the origin of these bandits was unknown, Li Yuanying led his men to wipe out the bandits blocking the entrance of the valley, leaving a few alive, and did not disperse the people to go up the mountain to investigate. . At the beginning of the chaos, Li Yuanying asked one by one if he was frightened or injured, and finally went back to Wei Shu.

At the beginning of the breakout, Li Yuanying asked Huang Ying and Huang Li to pull Wei Shu back into the car to protect her. It's not that he doesn't believe in Wei Shu's resilience, but that Wei Shu is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and Li Yuanying doesn't want her to go through this. A man should of course protect his wife at critical moments! Li Yuanying held Wei Shu's hand and said, "These people are mobs, not worth mentioning. None of us were injured."

Wei Shu thought of the thrilling scene just now, her palms were still cold. If Li Yuanying hadn't led the people to kill the other party by surprise, without the slightest hesitation during the whole process, they might have been intercepted and killed in the valley. Now that they have broken through, they are the only ones who suffer with their loads of luggage! Wei Shu couldn't care less about those treasures anymore, she held Li Yuanying's hand tightly and said, "It's too risky, you were too risky just now."

When Li Yuanying rushed out, their hearts were in their throats.

But if it wasn't for Li Yuanying's unhesitating charge, those boulders falling from behind would have destroyed the carriage they were riding in.

Li Yuanying said: "Since I brought them here, I will take them to Tengzhou safely." He took Wei Shu into his arms, "Your grandfather handed you over to me with confidence, and I will never let you go." One less hair, or your grandfather will scold me for the rest of my life."

After the two cuddled together for a moment, Li Yuanying released Wei Shu and went to personally interrogate the captured bandits.
