The next day.
Outside Chang'an City, there is a ten-mile long pavilion!
Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there has been a pavilion every ten miles outside the main city. Later, there was a short pavilion every five miles for travelers. Relatives and friends who traveled far away often said goodbye here.
Today, Wei Zheng led the imperial guards and escorted the Cui family and others, and was bidding farewell to the civil servants and generals in the court.
Although Wei Penzi is usually quite hated for his mouth, his virtue still makes most people admire him.
"Your Majesty is here~!"
Today's morning court was very brief. The purpose was to give the ministers time to say goodbye to Wei Zheng. After the court, Li Er tidied up in the palace and rode over.
"I will see you, Your Majesty~!"
All the ministers bowed and saluted.
Li Er said "no courtesy", then went straight to Wei Zheng, and said seriously: "Wei Aiqing's journey is high and far away, and it may be dangerous. No matter what, Wei Aiqing must take care of himself. The Tang Dynasty cannot live without you!"
For Wei Zheng, Li Er's "feelings" were quite complicated. When Wei Zheng pointed at him and scolded him, he wanted to kill the old man in front of him countless times. After all, as a ninth-five-year-old man, he also needed face! But every time afterwards, he would always be glad that Wei Zheng could speak out at critical moments. This person was like a mirror to him, always able to find his shortcomings. So in general, he both loves and hates Wei Zheng!
Although sending Wei Zheng to Henan Province was partly selfish, it was mostly for official reasons. He also didn't want anything to happen to Wei Zheng in Henan Road. Without Wei Zheng, he would feel that something was missing in his life.
Feeling that the emotion contained in Li Er's words did not seem to be fake, Wei Zheng was touched in his heart. He raised his head and said expressionlessly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will fulfill my mission and eliminate the Henan Dao officialdom in one fell swoop!" It’s getting late, I’ll take my leave now, my Majesty, please take care of yourself!”
After saying that, Wei Zheng bowed his hands to Li Er and all the ministers, then turned and left.
.....................
"The Supreme Emperor allowed me to enter the palace again?"
At Yunshan Courtyard, in the afternoon, the Eunuch Cao next to Li Yuan came again. Everyone in the Li family felt a strong sense of vigilance. A few days ago, Li Zexuan was invited to the palace by Eunuch Cao, and he was almost there. He only came back in the evening, and he looked exhausted when he came back. It was obvious that the experience in the palace was not easy. Although Li Zexuan said that nothing happened, Li Jingmo and Mrs. Li more or less guessed something in their hearts, so today when Eunuch Cao invited Li Zexuan again, everyone in the Li family felt a little repulsive.
"Uh... Don't get me wrong, Marquis Yong'an. The Supreme Emperor just wants you to come into the palace to talk to his old man. He has no other intentions!"
Feeling the aura of vigilance emanating from everyone in the Li family, Eunuch Cao understood instantly and quickly apologized with a kind face.
"Well! My father-in-law, please wait a moment while I clean up and follow you into the palace!"
Li Zexuan nodded, turned around and walked towards the back room.
Han Yuxi and Mrs. Li followed in quickly and calmly. Mrs. Li stepped forward and took Li Zexuan's arm, and asked worriedly: "Xuan'er, doesn't the Supreme Emperor still have a grudge against you?"
Li Zexuan smiled slightly and said: "Mom! Don't worry, last time, the Supreme Emperor had settled the differences with the child. This time, he must really just be talking to the child. You and dad, don't think too much!"
After what happened in Changle last time, Li Zexuan believed that Li Yuan would not be unfavorable to him anymore. Although the old man was a bit overbearing sometimes, he could still distinguish between good and bad.
"If that's the case, then I'll be relieved!"
When Mrs. Li heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
"Well, sir, I will help you change your clothes!"
Han Yuxi stepped forward happily.
"Um!"
…………………………
Putting on his court clothes, Li Zexuan and Cao Sixi rode to Chang'an City.
In fact, if Li Yuan had no ill intentions towards him, he would quite like the old man telling him that he had entered the palace, because in this way, he could ignore the ban and go to Yunshan justifiably!
"Haha! Marquis Yong'an, are you here? No need to be polite! Sit down!"
After passing through the Tai Chi Palace and arriving at the courtyard where Li Yuan was, Li Zexuan was warmly received by Li Yuan this time, unlike last time.
And that little guy Li Yuanchang was actually there. The father and son were sitting around a table. There was a deck of wooden cards on the table. Li Zexuan bowed his hands and sat on the opposite side.
"I heard about this method of fighting bandits from Qingque. I have nothing to do today, so I wanted to find you, Marquis Yong'an, to play two games with me!"
Li Yuan saw Li Zexuan focusing on the wooden sign on the table and said with a smile.
Li Zexuan glanced at Li Yuanchang next to him without leaving any trace, and then said to Li Yuan: "Since the Supreme Emperor is so elegant, of course I will be happy to accompany him~!"
Li Yuan laughed heartily and said: "Haha~! I heard that this battle with bandits requires a lottery to be interesting. Marquis Yong'an, your family has a huge fortune, so you are definitely not short of money! Why don't we use a hundred guan as the base and play a few games? how?"
Li Zexuan couldn't help but feel happy. He thought to himself that after finally going out, he met someone who wanted to give money. If he didn't agree to such a thing, there would be something wrong with his brain. "I have no objection! The emperor is just having fun." Just be happy!”
It should be good to lose happily, Li Zexuan added silently in his heart.
Although he didn't know how good Li Yuan's poker skills were, he, as the landlord, ah, no, the founder of the bandit fight, was confident that his grasp of the rules and techniques would definitely defeat these two people on the field. Besides, with his strong mental power, his head is simply a natural card recording device! Faced with a humanoid plug-in like him, why should Li Yuan and Li Yuanchang fight with him?
"Hehe~! Grandpa Huang, Changle has come to say hello to you! Huh? Brother Xiaoxuan is here too?"
At this moment, Chang Le walked in from outside, wrapped tightly. When she saw Li Zexuan sitting in the courtyard, a hint of "surprise" appeared on her face.
How could a person like Li Yuan not see the little Jiujiu in his heart? However, there was still a hint of kindness on his face, "Haha! Changle is here? Come in quickly! It's cold outside, but don't freeze! It just so happens that your grandpa is going to play two games with Marquis Yong'an against bandits. You can learn from the side. After you learn it, you can come over often to play with Grandpa Huang!"
"Yeah! Then Changle should learn from Grandpa Huang!"
Chang Le responded crisply, then turned to look at Li Zexuan, the complicated emotions in his eyes flashed away, "Brother Xiaoxuan, thank you for your rescue that day, otherwise Chang Le..."
