Yeyue followed Saleh back to Dashi again. On the Baqiao bridge, Bai Chun stood quietly next to the carriage. Behind him stood Lian Tie and Yang Wu. Not far away from the three of them, there was another person. There were two young eunuchs standing quietly with their hands folded in front of their lower abdomens.
The Dashi envoy team, which had nearly a thousand people when they arrived, only had about 200 people left when they returned. On the way to Anxi, they were not as luxurious as some large business travel teams, and looked quite shabby.
Yeyue alone and the things she wanted to bring back from the Tang Dynasty could load five carriages. The number of carriages carried by one person accounted for half of the carriages of the Dashi team.
Saleh was very dissatisfied that Yeyue was carrying so many things as if moving. Although every item seemed to be a luxury item in Dashi, now their team of 200 people wanted to protect these carriages. , it seemed a bit difficult on the long journey.
But Yeyue pouted her little mouth and was unwilling to let go of even one thing. No matter how Saleh tried to persuade her, Yeyue would shake her head like a rattle.
Ye Yue, who was sitting in the carriage, saw Bai Chun in a white dress from a distance, standing quietly on the edge of the Ba Bridge. The Ba Bridge had more than doubled, and the willows on the roadside were lingering. It was the early spring time when people were visiting. It's a good time to greet relatives and friends. Besides them, there are also some common people and scholars from Chang'an on Baqiao, who are either playing with friends or saying goodbye.
But on the large Baqiao, where people were coming and going, there was no one around Bai Chun and others, as if the small space was covered by something.
Tourists and people who pass by will avoid it unconsciously, but they will secretly look at it with the corners of their eyes as they pass by. Bai Chun, who is dressed in white like a fairy in the wind, glances at her. In addition to being amazed, her eyes are also filled with doubts about her identity. I secretly guessed in my heart.
Literati have always been bold and uninhibited, but when faced with such a beautiful and quiet beauty like Bai Chun, they will become uneasy and stop moving forward. Looking at Bai Chun who is as indifferent as a snow lotus, although they are longing for and Amazing, but no one dares to go to chat with her.
Bai Chun looked at Yeyue's beckoning and nodded calmly, without any smile at all. Her bright and beautiful eyes also looked extremely calm.
"What do you think Li Hong likes about her? She's cold and doesn't know how to smile..."
"You don't care, just smile at Li Hong. Why should I smile at you?" Ye Yue teased her brother Wang, then signaled the carriage to stop, then jumped out of the carriage lightly and walked quickly. He ran to Bai Chun's side.
"Why are you here?" Yeyue excitedly grabbed Bai Chun's cold little hand. It was obvious that Bai Chun had been waiting here for a long time.
"Your Highness is worried about you going back to Dashi alone, so he brought two people to accompany you back." Bai Chun pointed to two young eunuchs not far behind him.
Then the two eunuchs immediately bowed over, saluted Bai Chun, and then saluted Yeyue.
"I thought he had forgotten me a long time ago and only has you in his heart." Ye Yue said this, but she still felt a little warm in her heart. The guy didn't say a few words to him before leaving for the battle. I didn't expect such attentiveness.
"His Highness has the whole world in mind. Of course, there is only one person in the world besides you. Since you have traveled far away to return to Dashi, how can His Highness let you go back alone without a servant to take care of you." Bai Chun said as he said , while exchanging greetings with Saleh.
The Sudan also struggled to get out of another carriage, with thick straps wrapped around his shoulders and his arms fixed in front of his chest to prevent the shaking of his arms from affecting the wound on his shoulder blade.
Although Yeyue knew that Bai Chun was telling nonsense, she still felt happy when she heard Bai Chun talk about her importance in Li Hong's heart.
Saleh and Sultan watched the two women standing on the Ba Bridge, ignoring the gazes of tourists and people around them, and continued to chat as if nothing had happened. One of them did not look like they were seeing off, and the other did not look like they were on their way. He looked like this, so he had to cough repeatedly to remind the two of them.
The two women looked at the two people who were coughing repeatedly. Bai Chun then signaled Yangwu and Lian Tie to bring the things brought to Yeyue in the carriage and asked Saleh to send people to move them to Yeyue's carriage.
"What else? You should just send a caravan to deliver it to her! How can you bring so many things!" Saleh opened his eyes wide, looked at the two Tang Dynasty eunuchs who were standing behind Yeyue just now, and hurried A carriage full of goods came and he said dissatisfiedly.
"In that case, let's let this carriage follow us to the Dashi." Yeyue made the decision for Yeyue and Saleh without delay, without giving them a chance to refute.
Ye Yue happily nodded in agreement. Regardless of whether these things were given by Bai Chun under Li Hong's instructions or given to her by Bai Chun on Li Hong's behalf, she was very happy in her heart.
Because in the eyes of the girls from the East Palace, as long as any gift comes from Bai Chun's hand, there is basically no difference between any gift that comes from Li Hong's hand.
Bai Chun, this woman who was nameless and statusless in the East Palace and was still a slave in the Tang Dynasty, could represent more of the will of His Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty. Sometimes, Bai Chun was even like Li Hong's clone, every time The weight of every word is sometimes no less than what Li Hong said.
"Take good care of Yeyue. Your Highness may go to Dashi personally to welcome Yeyue back to Chang'an." Bai Chun said to Saleh, who looked dissatisfied that he had made the decision for him.
"when?"
"I don't know." Looking at Saleh's question, Bai Chun shook his head slightly and said.
Then he ignored Saleh and walked two steps forward to the Sultan. After saluting, he said, "His Highness asked me to tell you that he does not want anyone to harass Yeyue in Dashi."
Sultan was stunned for a moment when he heard Bai Chun's words that were obviously warning him, then a big smile appeared on his face, showing his white teeth and said: "It's interesting, but Dashi is not as good as the Tang Dynasty. He is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, not the Tang Dynasty." The Prince of Shi, I really hope that he will come to Dashi and let me see his majesty again. Oh, by the way, didn't he say something harsh about what he would do if someone harassed Ye Yue? People in Tang Dynasty always say, if you dare to do anything, be careful what I do to you, or don’t blame me for revenge or something?”
The Sultan's expression and tone were full of disdain. In Dashi, would he still let Li Hong bully him at will like he did in the Tang Dynasty? It's your own territory there, and it's up to you to show him a good look when the time comes.
So after Sultan finished speaking, he looked at Bai Chun provocatively. He wanted to know how this very important woman in the Tang Dynasty, at least in Chang'an City, would respond to his provocation.
But to his surprise, Bai Chun still had a calm face, as if he didn't hear the provocation in his words at all, and just said lightly: "It's not necessary."
"What... what does this mean?" Sudan was stunned. It was obvious that he was despised and didn't care at all.
"Anyway, it's best if you remember." Bai Chun nodded to Sultan and did not answer his question. Then he took Yeyue's hand and walked to Yeyue's carriage.
Seeing Yeyue getting on the carriage and waving to her reluctantly, Bai Chun also raised his hand and waved to her.
Until the long Dashi team was completely invisible, Bai Chun still looked into the distance.
The emperor of the Tang Dynasty was finally asked by his ministers to go back to the palace from the palace where he worked with the people outside Chang'an City. Wu Mei was riding in a carriage with Li Zhi along the way, and Pei Wanying and Yan Lingbin were riding in the carriage behind him.
The two stayed in the palace where they worked with the people for three days before following their father and mother back to the palace today.
And a palace or royal farmland that is farmed with the people cannot be left unattended, right
In the end, Concubine Xiao Shu continued to stay in the palace where she worked with the people, and became neighbors with Li Xian's concubine Fang Muqing.
According to the decision of Li Zhi and Wu Mei, in the next few days, another prince, Li Zhe after getting married, will appear in the palace where he works with the people to replace Li Zhi and continue planting new crops.
Wu Mei's mind was still thinking about the mystery of the sun and moon shining in the sky, so she faced His Majesty who was chattering endlessly and was always dissatisfied with Li Hong, so she simply ignored him and let him complain in the carriage. Li Hong, while she continued to think about the answer to the mystery.
"Di Renjie resigned? I didn't know it? He's not like me. He left such a mess and ran away? Is this what a mature prince should do? Is this what a mature prince should do? Be mature and prudent? I think He still needs to be taken care of. The past few years of court administration have not tempered his irritable temper. This is all the responsibility of you, the queen." Li Zhi folded his hands and looked at him from time to time while sitting in the carriage. He glanced at the scenery outside the window, then turned to look at the side and stared blankly at the other side of the window. The queen, who was silent, had an expression full of dissatisfaction.
"Di Renjie resigned, but Li Hong kept his job, right?" Wu Mei sighed and finally looked away from the window.
"What about the past three years? Is the Young Minister of Dali Temple in charge? There is no Zhengqing? What's the point?" Li Zhi saw that Wu Mei finally paid attention to him, so he seemed to be encouraged and continued to complain: " Huh? Isn't that Bai Chun? Why is she here to greet us? "
Li Zhi turned his gaze from Wu Mei's face to the window and saw Bai Chun, Yang Wu, and Lian Tie standing next to the carriage, saluting their emperor and empress.
Wu Mei looked in the direction of Li Zhi's finger and saw Bai Chun, Yang Wu, and Lian Tie with their heads lowered and saluting to herself as they passed by.
"Go and call her over." Wu Mei said toward the front of the carriage.
So at the entrance of the carriage, Wang Lou, who had been standing there with Hua Ji, bowed to salute her and Li Zhi. Then when the carriage slowed down and drove onto the Ba Bridge, he opened the door of the carriage and gently Jumped down with a slight leap.
