A few days later, Chang'an City.
In the evening, a fast horse galloped from Zhuque Street, broke through the rain and fog, and went straight into the deep palace.
"Report! A letter has arrived from Xiaohou of Sanyuan County!" Outside the Ganlu Palace, the knight who had just galloped half-knelt outside the palace and reported loudly.
"Oh? Submit it quickly!"
Soon, as a slightly excited voice came, the door of Ganlu Palace slowly opened. Eunuch Hong, the eunuch with a pen, walked out of the palace with broken steps, took the letter sealed in the bamboo tube from the knight, and hurried in again. The palace gate.
Then, a hearty laugh came from the main hall, resounding throughout half of the palace.
"Draft a decree to order Zhang Bao, the governor of Hanzhong, to reward the brave men who have served Xiao Aiqing! We also ordered the Ministry of Industry to separate the Firearms Research Institute and merge it into the First Research Institute of the Tang Dynasty. Xiao Aiqing will be responsible for all related matters!"
The sound of rain was getting louder, but it couldn't cover up Li Shimin's hearty laughter! Amid the laughter, even Eunuch Hong, who was beside Li Shimin, had a relieved smile on his face.
How long has it been since your Majesty smiled like this?
It seems that since the Marquis of Sanyuan County left Chang'an, the emperor has never been very happy.
Eunuch Hong was not clear about what happened between the Marquis of Sanyuan County and His Majesty.
But he could keenly feel that there was already a gap between these good brothers in the past! Moreover, he also saw that during this period, His Majesty wrote letters to the Marquis of Sanyuan County more than once, but at the end of the writing, the letters were inevitably burned.
Now it's finally better! Your Majesty couldn't help but feel embarrassed, so the Marquis of Sanyuan County wrote first!
The dark clouds in the sky cleared away in one day!
"Go and get the wine!" Eunuch Hong smiled and drafted the memorial, while quietly giving instructions to Xizi who was following him. When the memorial was finished, the wine would be delivered.
Li Shimin, whose face was full of excitement, was not surprised at all by the wine brought by Xizi. He took a sip directly into the spout of the pot without using a cup, then read the drafted memorial and accepted it. The jade seal was heavily covered on the memorial book.
"Hey, Xiao Hou..."
A moment later, the memorial letter came into the hands of Fang Xuanling from Zhongshu Province.
Looking at the paper: "Ordered by Heaven, Longevity and Longevity", eight bright red characters, Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly, stamped Zhongshu's seal, and then handed the memorial to Changsun Wuji, who happened to be visiting.
"This is?"
Seeing Fang Xuanling handing the memorial to him, Changsun Wuji was not polite. He took the memorial and glanced at it hastily, and immediately frowned.
The first article in this memorial is easy to say, just give something casually, but what about the First Research Institute of the Tang Dynasty? Why does this name sound so familiar?
"Prime Minister, this is the First Research Institute of the Tang Dynasty?" After frowning and thinking for a long time, Changsun Wuji tried to ask Fang Xuanling, but Fang Xuanling seemed to have known that he was going to ask. Nothing special, stroking his beard and smiling:
"Haha, Lord Changsun, have you forgotten? During the Wude years, the Supreme Emperor personally gave Xiao Han a plaque and declared him the dean of the First Research Institute?"
"Oh! Yes! I remembered it, there was such a thing! No wonder it sounds familiar!"
After listening to Fang Xuanling's suggestion, Changsun Wuji suddenly remembered.
During the Wude years, such a thing did happen! At that time, because of the establishment of this courtyard, there was a lively quarrel in the court for a while. .
However, as Li Shimin, who later became the King of Qin, and Prince Li Chengqian had a bad relationship, Xiao Han, who clearly bore the mark of Li Shimin, was also suppressed by officials in the court. This first research institute of the Tang Dynasty was gradually buried from then on.
Until later, after the Xuanwu Gate Incident and Li Yuan's abdication, this department established by Li Yuan, whether to avoid suspicion or for other reasons, was completely buried in the pile of old papers.
"Number one in the Tang Dynasty! Your Majesty wants to let others know that his love for Xiao Han is still the same as before."
Thinking of this, Fang Xuanling also gave a wry smile, then waved his hand to summon the attendant and asked him to deliver this memorial to Duan Lun, Minister of Industry.
Although I knew this would make Duan Lun uncomfortable, there was nothing I could do about it. He is Shangshu's right servant. If he doesn't deliver it, he can't let Fang Xuanling deliver it, right?
Watching the attendant leaving in the rain, Duan Lun's depressed face appeared in the minds of Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling.
Alas, after working so hard for so long, the duck that was about to reach its beak fluttered its wings and flew away. I don't think anyone would be happy!
Inside the palace city, the clouds and waves were strange, some people were laughing, and some were sighing, it was unknown.
But in the Yan Mansion outside the palace, Yan Zhi, who was looking at the letter in his hand, pulled off his last few beards as Xiao Han thought.
"I am born to be useful? Is this written by that bastard?! Wait, I'm a little dizzy, Shigu, get a glass of water!"
Shivering, Yan Zhitui took the tea handed over by Yan Shigu, took a sip, wiped it away, picked up the letter again, and read the poem on it carefully from beginning to end.
Poetry, definitely good poetry!
Even in Yan Zhitui's opinion, it is not an exaggeration to rank it as the first poem of all time!
But was this really written by Xiao Han?
Don’t you see, the bright mirror in the high hall has sad white hair, and it looks like blue silk in the morning and turns to snow in the evening!
Yan Zhitui thinks this is the only sentence! It shouldn't be something that heartless guy can spit out!
And the savior in the back, Dan Qiusheng!
Who are these two people?
Why was it included in the poem?
In ancient times, all the sages were lonely, but only the drinkers left their names!
Wasn't he kicked to Lingnan by the emperor? Why are you still in such a good mood to drink?
etc!
The five-flowered horse and the golden fur will be exchanged for fine wine. Will we sell the eternal sorrow with you?
This is not right! With this kid's worth, do you need to exchange clothes and horses for a drink?
Son? Where did he get his son? Isn’t it just a daughter? It’s hard to say whether I can hold the wine gourd now!
"Good boy! I wrote a poem to enlighten you. Not only do you not appreciate it, you also dare to find someone to write a poem to mock me, right? Okay! Just wait!"
Holding the letter and cursing bitterly, Yan Zhi pushed it away several times without tearing the letter into pieces. Finally, he could only sigh deeply, pick up the pen, and copy down this unique poem neatly.
"Hey, what a pity! For such a good article to be written like this by that kid, it is simply a waste of resources! His claws should be digging in the soil for food, not used to write articles!"
Perhaps, when he wrote this song before drinking, Xiao Han had already guessed the ending.
But what's the point? I won’t admit it, how else can you trick me?
""Can you please lower your voice! "Knocking hard on the wall next door, Xiao Han finally fell asleep with strange gasps.
"Liu Hongji, you beast, drag my two maids into the room, you're not afraid of being fucked all night long!"
