After chatting with Princess Pingyang and his wife for a while, Li Shan went out to find Qu Silang and secretly confessed a few words. He stopped caring about other things and went straight out of the imperial city.
"teacher."
When I left the Zhuque Gate, I happened to run into Wan Xuandao's yamen. This boy had always been very domineering because of Concubine Wan Guifei, but he was respectful to Li Shan. I don't know if it was the beating he received last year or the fact that he was tied up and thrown away this year. Sun Moon Lake.
"I heard that Lingshi County was lost?"
"You are well informed!" Li Shan smiled half-heartedly, "Don't worry, King Qin has sent reinforcements."
"Oh, King Qin will definitely come back victorious when he goes to war." Wan Xuandao said with a smile, pretending to be mysterious: "After this battle, King Qin will take over the East Palace, right?"
Li Shan glared and slapped Wan Xuandao on the back of the head with a moderate slap, "Be careful with your mouth, don't get into trouble!"
"Teacher misunderstood." Wan Xuandao said aggrievedly: "Just now, my sister summoned her disciples to the Manna Hall. Your Majesty..."
"Shut up!" Li Shan really regretted accepting this disciple. He was such a big talker. He relied on Concubine Wan Gui to gain Li Yuan's respect... That is to say, Concubine Wan Gui's only son Li Zhiyun died, otherwise Wan Xuandao would be in trouble sooner or later.
Fortunately, Wan Xuandao was very ordinary in both civil and military skills, as well as in his strategy and scheming. There was nothing outstanding about him. As long as he didn't have a strong desire for power, he couldn't cause any big trouble.
Wan Xuandao felt even more aggrieved. Concubine Wan Guifei secretly told him today that he must never have any contact with the East Palace again. This was a very obvious signal. When he came to inform the teacher, he was scolded instead.
After a few more instructions, Li Shancai got on his horse, and dozens of guards led by Wang Junhao gathered around him and left. Wan Xuandao turned around and left in frustration, but hesitated where to go... Should he go to the East Market or the West Market?
The West Market has more variety, more wine shops, and a lot of Hu girls... Thanks to Li Shan, Hu girls have now established their presence in Chang'an.
Well, some people are beginning to appreciate the whirling bearded girl with white skin, blue eyes and blond hair.
But Dongshi relies on Pingkangfang!
At this time, someone not far away was waving, "Dao Sheng, Dao Sheng!"
"Pei Jiulang, Li Wulang, what a coincidence." Wan Xuandao smiled and greeted him. These two people were friends he had made after leaving the palace last year. After the incident at Renzhi Palace, His Majesty returned to Beijing, and it was these two people who informed Wan The imperial concubine allowed Wan Xuandao to escape from Sun Moon Lake.
From then on, Wan Xuandao regarded the two as close friends and kept close contact with each other.
Pei Jiulang is Pei Shang, a descendant of the Wenxi Pei family. Although Pei Shiju and Pei Ji are both attached to the East Palace, Pei Shang's father Pei Huaijie is a recorder of affairs in Tiance Mansion and is now accompanying King Qin on the expedition.
Li Wulang was a branch of the Li family in Zhao County, Li Fengshi. His father, Li Tong, was well-known in the Sui Dynasty for admonishing Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty to drive south to Jiangdu. After the battle of Hulao Pass in the fourth year of Wude, Li Shimin was recruited by Li Shimin to serve as Tiance Mansion. Fa Cao joined the army and took charge of judicial matters.
All in all, both of them had nothing to do with the East Palace. Instead, they were from the lineage of King Qin, so Wan Xuandao also deliberately had more contacts with them.
"Have you been reprimanded by His Highness King Wei Si again?" Pei Shang teased with a smile.
"The teacher that Daosheng worships can be described as a man of literary and military skills, capable of doing anything." Li Fengshi also joked, "But he's just not very good at teaching."
When Wan Xuandao heard these two sentences, he was full of complaints, but he also knew not to say it casually, so he followed the tone and said: "Who said the teacher can't teach?"
"Let's go to Pingkang today... uh, to Dongshi, it's Dongshi!"
Pei Shang laughed and said, "Hahaha, Daosheng wants to imitate His Highness King Si of Wei... to see all the flowers in Chang'an in one day, right?"
"But having Daosheng here is a real treat. I'm sure Dongshan Restaurant won't fail to give the only student of His Highness Wei Siwang some face, right?"
Wan Xuandao laughed loudly, "Let's go, let's go early, maybe we can meet a cow that fell to death!"
This is a well-known secret in Chang'an Public Security Bureau. Cows occasionally fall to death in Dongshan Restaurant in Dongshi...
More than half an hour later, in the Dongshan Restaurant, three young men of similar ages were chatting and laughing, talking about the war in Hedong... They all had great confidence in King Qin. This was also the mainstream opinion in the court today. After all, Li Shimin's previous achievements were too brilliant.
"Since the King of Qin has sent reinforcements, Huo Yi will surely not suffer any losses." Li Fengshi glanced at Pei Shang, "The Turks should not invade Jiangzhou."
"I was worried at first, but now that King Qin is going on an expedition, I have no worries." Pei Shang said with a smile: "When King Qin returns to the capital, I guess..."
The three people exchanged glances with each other, and they all knew what was going on.
Wan Xuandao smiled and said: "I will ask my two brothers to take care of me in the future."
"What did Daosheng mean?" Pei Shang shook his head and said, "Now that Daosheng has become an official, he is preparing for Qianniu..."
After a pause, Pei Shang sighed, "You two also know that the Duke of South Korea and the Duke of Anyi County have successively attached themselves to the East Palace. My father is now only a ninth-grade official in Tiance Mansion. If nothing unexpected happens, his fortune will be far inferior to the two of you."
Wan Xuandao quickly comforted him, but Li Fengshi didn't say anything. He knew what he knew, because Pei Ji and Pei Shiju were from a double family. Hearing that the Pei family's west family house was famous for a while, but as the King of Qin came to power, he was afraid that although the Pei family would not The lintel has fallen, but it will never be the same as before.
After chatting for a while, Wan Xuandao began to feel itchy and was about to transfer to Pingkangfang next door. In the past few days, he met a man named "Peach Blossom" and asked him to ask the teacher for poems several times.
At this time, Pei Shang suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I heard something a few days ago. Daosheng still remembers that my brother's uncle is a doctor of palace education in the Internal Literature Museum?"
Li Fengshi, who was drinking, almost spat out a mouthful of wine, "Internal literature museum?"
The Internal Literature Museum is affiliated to the Yeting Bureau, with the Ministry of Internal Affairs at the top. In the former Sui Dynasty, scholars were employed, but in this dynasty, eunuchs were used to serve.
"Haha, no, no, no." Wan Xuandao has stayed in the palace for nearly ten years, so he naturally understands the truth behind this, and explained: "In the second year of Wude, the Internal Literature Museum was allocated to the Zhongshu Province, but it is said that Your Majesty I intend to return to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so Pei Jiulang came to see my younger brother a few days ago, hoping to find a good position for his uncle."
Li Fengshi was relieved and looked at Pei Shang curiously, "What's the matter?"
Pei Shang looked mysterious and lowered his voice, and after a moment there was an exclamation.
Li Fenshi was dumbfounded, but Wan Xuandao was thoughtful, seeming to be thinking about something, with a faint look of excitement on his face. Although his sister had never taken sides in the harem these years, he knew that his sister still had hatred for the East Palace. .
Back then, so many people rushed from Hedong to Jinyang, and so many people arrived safely, but my nephew Li Zhiyun was captured by the Sui army. How could my sister not hate it?
Wan Xuandao was present at the time, and Li Jiancheng abandoned Li Zhiyun on the grounds that he was young and difficult to behave. This is nonsense. Li Yuanji and his nephew are the same age.
Wan Xuandao's eyes flashed. He could not only vent his anger on his sister, but also pave a straight path for himself. Maybe he should check it out.
