After receiving the imperial edict, Luo Zhang naturally did not delay in Anxi. He had to explain what was needed and just do what he said.
With Su Dingfang watching here, Luo Zhang is relieved. He believes that it won't be long before five majestic cities will rise on the land of Anxi.
By then, this place will be another prosperous place. After all, it connects the Western Regions to the Tang Dynasty and is an important gateway for customs clearance, which can replace Yumen Pass and Yang Pass.
The journey back seemed much more relaxed and comfortable. After all, everything was fine at home and Luo Zhang was not that anxious, not to mention that Mei Niang had given birth to a son for him.
On the way, Luo Zhangguang argued endlessly with Sun Simiao about naming his son.
The old guy wants the child to be named Luo Ting, which means becoming the mainstay of the Luo family, while Luo Zhang wants the child to be called Luo Feng, which means as high as a mountain.
The old guy said that the name was too sharp and was not good for the children, but Luo Zhang didn't care about it. He was already sharp enough, so he was fine.
No matter how sharp his son is, can he be more powerful than him?
The argument between the two continued until Chang'an, and they finally decided to give this right to the old lady of the Luo family, and she could call whomever she liked.
However, Luo Zhang did not enter the house when he returned to Chang'an, but went directly to the palace.
Li Junxian was waiting there at the city gate and called Luo Zhang away directly.
Before leaving, Luo Zhang glanced at Sun Simiao and Lao Duwu. On the way, the two discussed why His Majesty was so anxious to call him back.
He also discussed the matter of the ancestor of the Li family, and finally came to the conclusion that he was afraid that this ancestor wanted to see Luo Zhang. After all, what big deal could Li Shimin do if he wanted to meet Luo Zhang.
When Luo Zhang arrived at the palace, he was led directly to the back hill of the palace, where he saw Li Shimin walking in the garden of the back hill with an old man.
Luo Zhang's eyes narrowed. He was afraid that the only one in the world who could let Li Shimin accompany him even though he was half down. Even Li Yuan, who was imprisoned by him, Li Shimin might not do this.
Seeing someone coming, the figure who originally had his back to Luo Zhang turned around and looked at Luo Zhang.
The gaze shot into Luo Zhang's eyes like a knife, seeming to see through Luo Zhang.
Luo Zhang also trembled, feeling that he was exposed naked in front of the person in front of him.
After standing like this for a while, Luo Zhang felt like a big mountain was pressing down on him, making him feel like he couldn't breathe.
Even when facing the Void Return Realm masters from the Big Food Country, Luo Zhang didn't feel this way. Obviously, the strength of the ancestor in front of him was definitely stronger than those from the Big Food Country. As for how much stronger, Luo Zhang didn't know. , after all, he hasn’t reached that level yet.
On the side, Li Shimin stood with his hands bare, saying nothing, just standing there quietly.
After a long time, the white-haired old man withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "Are you Luo Zhang?"
The moment Luo Zhang looked away, he felt as if he was exhausted and almost sat down on the ground. This was not a shame, but a natural reaction of being relieved.
Upon hearing the old man's inquiry, Luo Zhang hurriedly bowed and said: "Old ancestor, this junior is Luo Zhang!"
"Well, at such an age and in such a state, it's not much worse than what I was back then. What's even more valuable is that you can reach such a state in such an environment without being arrogant or impatient, calm and restrained. The Tang Dynasty can have someone like you. Your Majesty, I am truly blessed by the Tang Dynasty!" I said with approval.
Li Shimin couldn't help but feel happy when he heard these words. This was the ancestor's recognition of Luo Zhang, and it also told Li Shimin that such people can be used without any worries and there is no need to suppress them.
You know, as Luo Zhang gets stronger and more powerful, Li Shimin has some ideas. After all, Luo Zhang is no longer someone he can suppress at will. He is no longer the same person he used to be. , the boy is gone after a while.
At this time, after Luo Zhang defeated Changsun Wuji, he could be regarded as completely replacing Changsun Wuji's status, and even surpassed it. After all, Changsun Wuji did not have so many outstanding military achievements, and even one of them could not compare with Luo Zhang. of.
In the army, Luo Zhang has become the god of war replacing Li Jing.
Among the civil servants, including Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and even Wei Zheng, they all praised Luo Zhang.
Even if Li Shimin wanted to take over Luo Zhang, there would be many obstacles. What's more, without his ancestor, Li Shimin would have no one who could be Luo Zhang's opponent, which had to make him wary.
Emperors are all suspicious. Even if you, Luo Zhang, say that you are loyal, it is impossible to dispel his concerns. Everything that is out of control will be ruthlessly obliterated by him. This is the heart of the emperor and the way of the emperor!
