The incident in Luoyang was reported back to Chang'an one after another, and it was exactly as Li Yuanying promised. They really only frightened Duke Xun, but the scope of scaring was too wide. It sounds like a bit much.
However, Duke Xun, Duke Yun, who was harmed by the scourge, did not move at all, as if he had not been intimidated by anyone, and his business had not been suppressed. Luoyang still seemed to be calm on the surface.
However, this calm is only an illusion after all.
Yun Guogong was not a man of heroic spirit, he was happy for a while at the secret map left by the warlock, but when he sobered up, he felt that he shouldn't let the warlocks go. He immediately called a few reliable people, and asked them to click off a few warlocks quietly without leaving any traces.
Those sorcerers also woke up, and realized what they had heard. They were all alert, and felt that a catastrophe was imminent. They usually just say nice things to support Duke Yun. If Duke Yun really wanted to rebel, who would join in
One of the sorcerers felt bad, and wrote a secret letter to his friends in private. He wrote all the dark and private affairs he knew about the official affairs of Yun State in the letter, and hid it in the secret compartment where we usually send letters to each other. His friend is a ranger, and he is an alchemist who wanders around, and sometimes he may not be able to meet him, so he agreed to use this method to leave a message for the other party at home.
If there is nothing wrong, everyone is welcome. If something happens, he will definitely ask Yun Guogong to be buried with him!
After leaving the letter, the warlock fled overnight.
Unexpectedly, the warlock was killed by someone sent by Yun Guogong before he had traveled far. It's a pity that he was just greedy for the good wine, food, gold, silver and treasures given by the Duke of Yun, and said a few obedient words against his will to fool around, but he was buried in the hidden ambitions of the Duke of Yun!
This silent killing was quickly detected by Dai Ting, who was keenly aware that Luoyang should not stay for a long time, and quietly withdrew from Luoyang.
Even if he didn't investigate deeply at the beginning, Dai Ting was sure that Duke Yun's adoption of his adopted son was definitely not because of his addiction to being a father. An ulterior matter - the most likely thing is that Yun Guogong is not reconciled to being just a Duke, and wants to go further!
Li Yuanying had repeatedly warned that he must not get involved in this kind of thing, so Dai Ting stopped intervening, quietly retreated from Luoyang, and flew back to Tengzhou day and night.
For them in the past, Tengzhou was just a distant and strange place, but for them now, Tengzhou is their home. Dai Ting slowed down when he stepped into Tengzhou, and even rested in a neighboring county town for a day before returning to Tengzhou city.
Outside the city of Tengzhou, it is peaceful and serene, with many farmers resting under the trees or busy in the fields; when entering the city of Tengzhou, there are noisy hawkers everywhere, prosperous and lively.
Datang did not encourage common people to join the ranks of merchants. After all, the land is the foundation. Only by growing enough food can more people be supported, and what the merchants do is not conducive to food production, but only for profit. Li Yuanying's idea is different. Li Yuanying thinks that merchants are also very useful. They can drive north-south travel and east-west traffic. With them, Tengzhou City can enjoy the products of the north and south of the river. Therefore, Tengzhou Academy does not prohibit the children of merchants from enrolling, and even promises that if they are The children of merchants are good enough, he can give them a future.
As for food, as long as there is money, Tengzhou will not worry about having no food. The granary in Tengzhou City is always full, and old grain is often exchanged for new grain. Li Yuanying has never relaxed in this regard.
Dai Ting walked in the city of Tengzhou with the curtain fence. Although he didn't know anyone who came or passed, he still felt that he was home. This Tengzhou City is their home, and they will make it more and more prosperous and lively. Everyone yearns for and envies this place, and no one dares to underestimate the people who go out from here!
Walking to the palace, Dai Ting showed his token, entered the palace unimpeded, and went straight to look for Li Yuanying.
Li Yuanying was reclining there reading the paperwork, looking lazy and out of shape. Hearing that Dai Ting was back, he sat up and asked for tea to be served, and beckoned Dai Ting to sit down nearby.
Dai Ting took off the curtain, revealing that flawless face like beautiful jade.
He sat down next to Li Yuanying as promised.
After leaving for a few months, Li Yuanying didn't feel unfamiliar, and pulled Dai Ting to ask how Luoyang was doing. Hearing how Dai Ting frightened Duke Yun, Li Yuanying was overjoyed, and asked after she was happy, "Aside from these things, did you do anything?"
Dai Ting said: "No." He finished answering, and mentioned the assassination of warlocks by Duke Yun. It's all going to the point of killing people. I'm afraid Duke Yun's plan is not small. You can tell from the fact that he has endured it all the time. Anyone who is suppressed and intimidated by various parties will not be able to help but attack, but Yun Guogong has not moved at all!
If you can't bear it, there must be a big conspiracy!
Li Yuanying became serious when he heard this, nodded and said, "You are right to come back." He thought for a while, and then said to Dai Ting, "Recently, I met some businessmen from Champo's side, and they mentioned Champo's place. There is a kind of rice that has a very high yield, which can yield several times more than the rice we are growing now, why don't you take someone to see it."
This is for Dai Ting to go to sea to avoid the limelight.
Dai Ting nodded in response.
Going out to sea is already commonplace for Dai Ting, after two days of rest, Dai Ting gathered his men and set off for Champa area. It was a bit far away, Li Yuanying personally sent Dai Ting and the others out to sea, and then returned to the palace to write a letter to His Majesty Li Er, reporting what Dai Ting found, and at the same time telling His Majesty Li Er that he had sent Dai Ting Go find Champa Rice Seeds.
Li Yuanying also wrote in the letter that he had asked Dai Ting to issue a military order, and if he could not find it, he would not be allowed to come back!
After Li Yuanying finished writing the letter, he immediately asked someone to send it to Cuiwei Palace and hand it over to His Majesty Li Er as soon as possible.
This Yun Guogong is too careless in his work, why does Dai Ting find out his actions every time he wants to rebel? He himself would die if he wanted to, and he also made others suffer!
Fortunately, it was a coincidence that he happened to hear about the high-yield rice seeds in Champa.
If Dai Ting couldn't find the rice seeds, he would say that Dai Ting didn't come back, and the emperor couldn't find anyone to deal with Dai Ting; if he found the rice seeds, it would be a great deed for the country and the people, and Dai Ting would be established great merit. For such a hero who has made great contributions to the country of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor should not want to kill him again, right
After Li Yuanying ordered someone to deliver the secret letter, he stood in front of the window for a long time, feeling uncomfortable, then sat back at the desk and wrote a letter to His Majesty Li Er, in which he comforted His Majesty Li Er One pass, saying that the emperor is really not a human job, and everything changes when a good friend gets power. Being an emperor is not as good as being a prince. Being a prince is free and easy, with an older brother supporting him and a nephew supporting him below.
Feeling that it is not easy to be an emperor, he described the prospect to His Majesty Li Er, saying that in the future, if he finds high-yielding rice seeds, one mu of land can support people who used to be able to support several mu of land. When people mention him as the emperor, they will praise him as a well-deserved wise king.
Li Yuanying sighed after finishing writing this comforting letter, and sealed it for someone to follow and send it up.
It doesn't matter if you can't catch up, just send it anyway.
He wants to protect Dai Ting, but he doesn't want to hurt his brother's heart, but there is nothing in the world that is good to everyone. Since he has made the decision to let Dai Ting go to sea to avoid disaster, a letter Faith can't change much.
Li Yuanying wandered around the study twice, but finally did not tell the others about Dai Ting's return. No matter how His Majesty Li Er dealt with Yun Guogong, who frequently made small moves, he hoped that the people around him would not get involved, and would not get involved in this kind of thing again, and it would be best not to even know about it.
Li Yuanying made up his mind and asked Wu Mei to prepare now. Tengzhou will start to vote for the first batch of "Tengzhou coins". Do our best to do a good job in the infrastructure construction of these three counties.
In the beginning of spring, they will start to settle in the three selected counties in turn, and sit in one of them to see if the local county magistrate is a good talent, and can give them a chance to go further; if it is really useless , Naturally, it is replaced by one's own person.
It is conceivable that they should all be busy next.
As midsummer approached, Lu Zhaolin set off for Beijing to marry Gao Yang. Li Yuanying has never received a reply from His Majesty Li Er. He feels that His Majesty Li Er may be really angry with him, but it really has nothing to do with him if Zhang wants to rebel. Ting then let Dai Ting go to sea.
After all, Yun Guogong was one of the people who followed His Majesty Li Er early, and he had a relationship with him for so many years. Regardless of whether Dai Ting's series of actions had something to do with Yun Guogong's rebellion, they should not get involved in this matter, let alone point it out.
Before Lu Zhaolin left, Li Yuanying took his hand and said, "Help me see if Brother Huang is eating well and if he has lost weight. Brother Huang will soon be your father-in-law. You will always have a chance to see him. Then you Just take a sneak peek, don't let him know," he sighed, "Brother Huang doesn't reply to me, I'm afraid he doesn't want to talk to me."
Lu Zhaolin naturally agreed.
Li Yuanying was only depressed for a while, and then earnestly told Lu Zhaolin to treat Gao Yang well and bring Gao Yang to Tengzhou as soon as possible. He has already built the Princess Mansion in Gaoyang, and then the young couple can live in the Princess Mansion and continue to work hard for Tengzhou, oh no, continue to contribute to Tengzhou!
Lu Zhaolin still liked to see Li Yuanying in high spirits, so he readily agreed to leave Tengzhou and return to Chang'an. His parents have already arrived in Chang'an, and someone is preparing for the wedding. He just needs to send someone out. After they get married, they can go back to Tengzhou together after going through the necessary procedures!
Li Yuanying sent Lu Zhaolin away, and murmured to Wei Shu sourly: "When will the emperor and your grandfather let us get married? They are both married, and I am the only one who stays in the empty room." He also wanted to hug his wife to sleep , It must feel very comfortable!
Wei Shu heard his words "keep the empty room alone", and couldn't help pinching his palm. Has he ever said that about himself? A dignified man is not ashamed to say such a thing!
Li Yuanying was not ashamed.
What face do you want for your own wife!
…
At this time, His Majesty Li Er was in a bad mood, not only because the summer weather was too hot, but also because of Li Yuanying's secret letter.
Li Yuanying's two letters arrived in Chang'an one after the other. His Majesty Li Er read the first letter first, and after reading it, he was naturally furious.
His Majesty Li Er was not only angry with Zhang Liang, but also angry with Li Yuanying.
Zhang Liang is both a adopted son and a superstitious warlock. He was stared at when Li Yuanying first reported it to him, but Zhang Liang has never moved, and he has always turned a blind eye.
This time, Zhang Liang suddenly attacked the warlocks who had always been trustworthy. It was obvious that these warlocks knew something-this also showed that Zhang Liang did have a different heart.
As for why he was angry with Li Yuanying, it was very simple. As soon as Li Yuanying found out about this, he sent Dai Ting to hide in the sea, obviously because he didn't believe that he could accommodate Dai Ting who noticed Zhang Liang's strange movement.
Although he did have murderous intentions towards Dai Ting, but Li Yuanying was wrong to think so!
His Majesty Li Er threw the letter away furiously, and received a second letter from Li Yuanying.
What was written in this letter was all nonsense. Even through the letter paper, His Majesty Li Er could imagine how Li Yuanying scratched his head to write this comforting letter. But it was Li Yuanying's letter full of nonsense that successfully extinguished His Majesty Li Er's anger.
This kid still has a bit of conscience, so he can be left alone for a while.
His Majesty Li Er thought about it for two days, and asked Ma Zhou to go to Luoyang to thoroughly investigate the matter mentioned in Li Yuanying's letter.
Before Ma Zhou arrived in Luoyang, someone went to Beijing to report that Duke Yun wanted to rebel!
When Li Chengqian heard the news, he immediately went to Cuiwei Palace to report to His Majesty Li Er.
The author has something to say: Little Prince: My conscience is more than a little bit, my conscience is very big!
