Zhang Yang stopped for a moment while pulling the car, "What's wrong?"
The guard explained: "Lishan Order should be confined at home now. How can we leave the city?"
Looking up and down at the guard in front of him, Zhang Yang frowned and said, "Is Lishan my home?"
"Um..." The guard looked troubled, lowered his head and said with a smile: "Lishan is the fiefdom of Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Lishan Order, and naturally it is also the home of the Lishan Order."
Zhang Yang glanced at him again, "Isn't that right? Is there anything wrong with me going to the house for a grounding?"
It's not easy for the guards to stop him, after all, Hejian County King has given instructions.
The family just walked out of Chang'an City. After not going to court for a month, they could focus on building a new home.
When the couple arrived at Lishan, they first went to the teacher's home.
Zhang Gongjin was looking at a book, which was printed by Lishan Factory. Each page of this book had brief affairs written on it.
For example, the recent government affairs and rumors about what happened in Chang'an City will be recorded in it. After printing, they will be sent to Chang'an City to sell for money, and the sales have always been very good.
The price is also cheap and is suitable for people to watch after dinner.
Li Yue took his wife's hand and walked into the courtyard.
Zhang Yang walked over slowly, "How is teacher's health lately?"
Zhang Gongjin shook his head helplessly, "It's not the same as before."
For current teachers, maintaining the same status quo and not deteriorating is the best news.
Zhang Yang first looked at the teacher's complexion and asked, "Have you stopped taking medicine recently?"
Zhang Gongjin still nodded, "Sun Simiao and the others said that taking medicine for a long time will put a burden on the body. They have stopped taking it for a while. It has been a month now."
All the doctors at Lishan Medical Center are worried about Zhang Gongjin's condition.
The medical team is getting bigger and bigger, and the business of the medical center is getting better and better. Last year was the first time the medical center made a profit.
Zhang Yang glanced at Zhang Daan who was watching, "Daan is really going to take the imperial examination."
Shaking his head, Zhang Gongjin smiled and said: "The child has grown up and I can't control it anymore. Previously, I took a fancy to Yan Liben's daughter and wanted to find a good match for Da'an. Then Yan Liben asked someone to reply and said that the queen wanted to marry her. Betroth his daughter to the King of Wei."
"King Wei? He is still a child, and the prince is not even married yet."
Zhang Gongjin nodded, "I think so too."
I glanced at Zhang Daan again. He was taking notes while reading. He had developed the habit of taking notes since the East Palace and has persisted until now.
Thinking about the teacher's words, Zhang Yang asked curiously: "How old is Yan Liben's daughter?"
Zhang Gongjin was cutting the potted plant in front of him, "It says he is thirteen years old."
"Thirteen……"
Zhang Yang covered his forehead in pain, "Isn't it too small?"
Zhang Gongjin added: "If you are serious, you can arrange a marriage for Da'an. I am about to die, and my three children will be taken care of by you from now on."
"Teacher, aren't you living a good life?"
Frowning and looking at his disciple, Zhang Gongjin shook his head, "You won't live much longer, and you don't even fulfill my last wish before I die?"
"Arrange it, definitely arrange it. I will make arrangements when something happens in Da'anke."
"Yes." Zhang Gongjin nodded slowly, "This way, old man, I can die with peace of mind."
Talking to the teacher is a very difficult thing, and the conversation always comes up with matters of life, separation, and death. They have been talking about it for so many years.
He looked at the potted plants in front of him, "I thought that I could just sit in Lishan and talk about world affairs. Even in Lishan, I still hear about your affairs from time to time. This time, the conversation between you and Lu Dongzan caused a stir in the city."
"Well, there was a lot of impeachment."
"You are a clever kid, and this so-called Lishan Magazine is your back-up?"
"Teacher, you misunderstood. This is a simple magazine. I will not use it to threaten those old guys in Chang'an City."
Zhang Gongjin smiled knowingly.
After meeting the teacher,
The couple went to Lishan to build a new house together. It was very difficult to put up the beams for the library, so Zhang Yang made a shelf to share some of the weight of the beams.
After setting up the beams, the next thing will be much easier.
The construction of a library is almost completed.
Li Yue looked at the drawings of the new home. There were many buildings on it, and it would take some time to complete the new home.
Some of the houses have very strange styles. For example, the husband wants to build a fountain that sprays water. The drawings of the new home refresh Li Yue's understanding of her husband's strange habits.
It wasn't until evening that the couple planned to go home. They wanted to stay in the village for a few days.
There are still many things at home, and the husband also has to go home to make some small parts.
No furniture was brought.
The setting sun was on the horizon. Today's setting sun looked much bigger than usual. Xiao Wu sat on the carriage shaft and watched it for a long time.
Finally arriving at Chang'an City, the guard guarding the city asked: "Didn't the Lishan Order say to go to Lishan to be banned in the morning? Why did he come back again?"
Zhang Yang packed up the carriage and glanced at him, "I'm grounded in Lishan Mountain during the day and in Chang'an City at night. Do you have any objections?"
The guard took a step back and saluted, "I don't dare to have any objections because of my humble position."
"My home in Chang'an City is also my home, and my home in Lishan is also my home. I just like to run in both directions. Does your Majesty's decree stipulate that I must be banned in one place?"
"That...that's not the case." The guard hesitated.
After cleaning up, the family returned home.
Li Yue was packing the clothes that had been dried in the yard, "My father grounded my husband and continued to take care of the affairs of the Foreign Affairs Council. There are so many people in the court impeaching my husband, so that my husband can avoid these impeachments. Concentrate on the affairs of the Foreign Affairs Council?"
Zhang Yang put on straw sandals and wore loose coarse clothes, "That's because your father wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and wait for things to develop. If things don't develop as he expected, maybe I will be fined a few more years of salary." , if things develop in a good direction, your father will not give me too many rewards."
Noticing his wife's suspicious eyes, Zhang Yang said helplessly: "Don't think too highly of your father. All his motives are for the country, so don't be moved by the emperor's kindness. His care for you is all You have to pay it back, and you have to pay it back double.”
The daughter-in-law's eyes changed from suspicion to disbelief.
Zhang Yang cleared his throat and continued: "It should be said that the people who are emperors are not good people. Most of them have abnormal views, because they sit in that position and think about problems in the same way as ordinary people when weighing the pros and cons. People are different.”
Continuing to straighten his clothes, Li Yue asked puzzledly: "How is it different?"
Zhang Yang whispered: "For example, your father doesn't care about how his daughters and sons will live in the future. On the basis of achieving power in his own hands, he also considers the lives of his children. .”
Since ancient times, most of the father-in-law and son-in-law have been at odds with each other.
Li Yue also liked her husband's prejudice against her father. She looked up at the sky in her yard, "Even if the future is bad, I hope my younger brothers and sisters can live a better life."
Zhang Yang shook the cattail leaf fan in his hand, "It's always good to have a beautiful vision."
Li Yue whispered: "Perhaps our family is not powerful enough. My husband will wait until we are strong enough to make our younger brothers and sisters live a better life."
[In view of the general environment,
"Well, I listen to you."
Hearing her husband's words, Li Yue smiled happily.
Xiao Wu is studying questions about improper fractions and integers.
The longer she stayed with Li Yue, her progress in mathematics learning has been steady.
As it was getting dark, Xu Xiaode walked out of the palace before the Chengtian Gate closed, and Chang'an City slowly turned from the bustle of the day into the tranquility of the night.
Xu Xiaode returned home. Since Zhang Daan left the East Palace, he has been very busy in the East Palace.
There are many more things.
The meal was already prepared at home. He took out a book and handed it to his daughter, "Hui'er, this is the book on mathematics that my father brought from the East Palace."
"Thank you, dad." Xu Hui took the book and said in a sweet voice.
Just after opening the book and reading it, Xu Hui asked curiously: "Dad, who is Zhang Yang?"
Xu Xiaode was eating the food and asked in confusion: "Why do you ask this?"
"My daughter recently watched the children in the neighborhood play games. They were all vying to be Zhang Yang, and the children who were usually bullied were Lu Dongzan."
The Kuaizi in Xu Xiaode's hand slowly stopped, "Zhang Yang is a young and energetic man. I heard from the prince that he is very far-sighted. As a father, I think there are some shortcomings in handling official affairs."
Seeing my daughter reading the book quietly, I don't know if she listened.
In the middle of March in the eighth year of Zhenguan, another military report was delivered to Chang'an City at noon. Li Daoyan and Su Dingfang attacked Luoche, captured most of the tribes north of the Maquan River, and fought all the way to the south of the Luoche River. , all the Tubo tribes wherever they passed were captured.
Li Shimin looked at these military reports with a solemn expression.
Su Dingfang and Li Daoyan swept all the way to the north of Tubo without encountering almost any obstacles. Songtsen Gampo took away most of the strong men in order to attack the border, which also caused Su Dingfang and the others to sweep all the way.
The women of Tubo should not be underestimated. Many soldiers were injured due to carelessness. Fortunately, Su Dingfang had always marched cautiously, so there were not too many soldiers lost.
At such a young age, they were able to go deep into Tibet with three hundred people and capture a large area of land in the capital of Songtsen Gampo. These two boys were considered the leaders among the young generals of the Tang Dynasty.
What worried Li Shimin was the other two military newspapers.
Unlike Su Dingfang and Li Daoyan, Niu Jinda's manpower had adapted to the plateau of Tubo. After adapting to the plateau, they felt like walking on flat ground in the depths of Tubo.
With Zhang Dashu's lessons learned and Su Dingfang's results, everyone in the court understood that the Tubo Plateau was not invincible.
After Niu Jinda and Li Daliang chased the Tubo people into the plateau, many soldiers became ill.
This gave Songtsen Gampo an opportunity to counterattack, and he lost a lot of troops in a short time.
After reading these military reports, Li Shimin's eyes turned gloomy, "Is it true that, as Zhang Yang said, you can't march on the plateau?"
The military newspaper only said that 30% of the troops were lost, and they did not know what the situation of Niu Jinda and Li Daliang was now.
Yuchi bowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead troops into the plateau to help Niu Jinda."
Changsun Wuji advised: "General Yuchi, don't lead your troops into the plateau again at this moment. Being on the plateau will make the Central Plains very uncomfortable. If you enter rashly again, greater losses will inevitably occur."
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Zhang Yang has reminded me many times before not to enter the plateau easily."
The Manna Hall was silent again, and the military reports were mixed.
Li Shimin said loudly: "Can you send a message to Su Dingfang now?"
"Your Majesty, Su Dingfang is currently in the deepest part of the Tubo Plateau. General Niu's people cannot even enter the plateau, let alone contact them."
Fang Xuanling said the most difficult part of this battle.
The two groups of troops encircling and suppressing Songtsen Gampo encountered the same situation. Due to the discomfort on the plateau, they encountered a counterattack by the Tibetan troops.
Yuchigong whispered: "Your Majesty, even though the rear of Tibet has been lost, Songtsen Gampo can still remain calm in this situation, is not in a hurry to return to defend the rear, and can still fight with our generals on the plateau. Hui, I have to say that this person is able to unify the Tubo tribe and has talents that are better than ordinary people."
Hearing this, Li Shimin nodded, "I want to meet this Songtsen Gampo even more."
A person who can maintain the situation in such adversity can show that this person has certain attainments in deployment and strategy.
Niu Jinda and others pursued smoothly all the way, but they didn't know the climate of the plateau, nor did they understand the terrain on the plateau.
And deep in the plateau is Songtsen Gampo's territory. He can slowly surround and kill these Tang troops and encroach on them step by step.
Qin Qiong, who was standing at the rear, said solemnly: "If Niu Jinda and Li Daliang can still make a decision, they should withdraw their troops at this moment."
Li Shimin looked away from the military newspaper, "It is indeed hasty to enter the plateau this time. Send an order to the border. If Niu Jinda and Li Daliang show signs of retreating, they will go immediately to respond."
Yuchi bowed respectfully and said: "General, I will draw up military orders and send troops along the way to meet Niu Jinda and Li Daliang."
Li Shimin said again: "Auxiliary machine, go to the Foreign Affairs Academy and see if the people in the Foreign Affairs Academy can contact Ashinadur in the Western Regions and ask them to find a way to send news to Su Dingfang and Li Daoyan so that they can Be careful."
"Here."
Even if the message is sent now, it may be too late by the time it reaches Tubo.
Su Dingfang and Li Daoyan were a lone army deep into the plateau. When Songtsen Gampo returned to Luosuo, they didn't know how they should deal with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Did Zhang Yang have other preparations.
On the plateau, Li Daoyan and Su Dingfang were learning Tubo dialect. This was what they had to do. Learning Tubo dialect would allow them to make correct judgments on the news.
Standing on the plateau, it seems like you can see the horizon at a glance.
A group of soldiers were taking a bath in the Zangbo River. Li Daoyan understood what all the Tibetan people said in front of him. The soldiers and horses led by Songtsen Gampo had withdrawn from the border and were dealing with the Tang army in the Hehuang area.
After telling Su Dingfang the news, Li Daoyan looked worried, "It's time for us to rush to help."
Behind the team was a large group of Tubo people, who were brought out from various tribes to wash clothes, cook barley and do various chores for the soldiers.
