"I never thought that I would see Uncle Yuan Fang here today. It is truly a blessing for Li Xuan!"
Li Xuan returned the courtesy to Lu Yuanfang with a solemn expression, and said sincerely: "Xuan originally planned to visit Taihu Lake when she went to Wu County. She never thought that she would meet Uncle Shi today. I am really ashamed. Xuan should have come to visit!"
Lu Yuanfang's uncle, Lu Jianzhi, was a master of ceremonies during the Taizong Dynasty, a bachelor of Chongwen Hall, and one of the three major calligraphers at that time.
Ou, Chu, and Lu are all equally famous in the world, which shows their abilities.
Ou Ziran is Li Xuan's maternal grandfather Ouyang Xun, Chu Ze is Chu Suiliang, the former Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, and Lu is Lu Yuanfang's uncle Lu Jianzhi.
Lu Jianzhi not only came from the famous Lu family in Wu County, he was even the nephew of the late secretary supervisor and Yongxing Gong Yu Shinan.
Originally, Ou, Chu, and Yu were all called together. After Yu Shinan passed away, Lu Jianzhi immediately took over.
"Xizhong never thought that the prince would stay in Yangzhou, so he came to join in the fun after hearing the news." Lu Yuanfang stretched out his hand to help Li Xuan, and then pointed to everyone and said, "This is Wang Zhe, the Yangzhou soldier and cao. His nephew Wang Yan."
Li Xuan immediately understood that Wang Zhe was not a native of Yangzhou, but Wang Yan was a descendant of the Wang family in Yangzhou.
"I've met Wang Bingcao, brother Wang Yanshi!" Li Xuan bowed her hands in a very polite salute.
"Don't dare, I've seen the prince of Nanchang." Wang Zhe and Wang Yan returned the greeting in fear at the same time.
The Yangzhou Wang family is just a branch of the Taiyuan Wang family who knows how many generations have passed. How can they have the qualifications to be called brothers to the Li family.
Li Xuan can be polite, but they can't take it seriously.
"This is Xu Taizhi, a scholar of Jinke. He is very talented. He is the most confident person in Yangzhou to pass the Jinshi examination next spring. He can even get a glimpse of the number one scholar." Lu Yuanfang looked at Xu Taizhi with a gentle look in his eyes. excitation.
"Brother Xu!" Li Xuan cupped his hands slightly, and then said thoughtfully, "If I remember correctly, the Xu family in Yangzhou was descended from Xu Jing, a famous minister of the Shu Han Dynasty."
"What the prince said is true. The student is the fifteenth generation grandson of our ancestor." Xu Baizhi showed a hint of surprise in his eyes and quickly returned the courtesy respectfully.
Li Xuan nodded. The Yangzhou Xu family came from the Qiantang Xu family, which is also the Hangzhou Xu family.
The most famous person in this dynasty of the Xu family in Hangzhou is none other than the former prime minister Xu Jingzong.
It is a pity that although Xu Jingzong was posthumously appointed as the governor of Yangzhou, his reputation was not good. He revised his history and was incompetent in running his family.
The posthumous title is "Gong", which means "it can be corrected once it has been done", it means it has been done.
"Your Majesty is now serving as the deputy general of the Left Army Guard. I remember that a few years ago, the rebellion in Fuzhou and Qiannan was suppressed by your Majesty's troops."
Fuzhou is in Jiangxi, so Li Xuan was deeply impressed by Xu Tao, the deputy general of the left-leading army guard.
It's a pity that Xu Tao has been leading the army in Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Chaozhou and other places all year round and does not return to the center...
"Your Majesty, I praise you very much. Although my father is capable, he has always been fighting under the command of Marquis Jiaqing. He only achieved success because of his fate." Xu Taizhi was very cautious.
The current ministers in the court have a bad impression of the Xu family, especially the right minister Dai Zhide and others.
Chen Zheng, the Marquis of Jiaqing, was the general of Guide, the left-leading army general Zuo Lang of Wei Yifu, the official of the court meeting, and the marching manager of Lingnan Road. He led his troops to guard southern Fujian and developed Zhangzhou, and he made outstanding contributions.
It's a pity that he met peerless generals like Xue Rengui, Pei Xingjian, and Cheng Chubi, which made it difficult for Chen Zheng to leave his name in history.
"I once met a scholar named Cheng Xingmou. He said, "A generous husband will be loyal and filial in life and death." It's quite talented. If you want to be successful next spring, you need to be careful. "Li Xuan gave a rare reminder that Xu Taizhi was quite different from his original impression of the Xu family in Qiantang.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xu Baizhi bowed with some gratitude. Just this name was enough to increase his confidence by 20% in the spring of next year.
"Yes!" Li Xuan nodded, and then looked at the next person. Members of the four major families in Yangzhou, the Lu family, the Meng family, and the Xu family, had all appeared, and now only two people were left.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy wearing a white brocade robe, and a twelve- or thirteen-year-old boy in a blue robe with bright eyes and white teeth.
"This is the son of my uncle, the son of He from Qiantang, and the son of He Mo, the governor of Xuzhou, Jizhen
, met the Prince of Nanchang County. " Lu Yuanfang made a move. The young man in white brocade clothes with a calm expression took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Qiantang He Zhizhang, I have met the Prince of Nanchang."
He Zhizhang and Li Xuan paused for a moment, but then they calmed down. His behavior was all caught in the eyes of others. Li Xuan said with a slight surprise: "It's the disciples of He Ji and He Zhi, both bachelors of Chongxian Hall. Nephew, when I was in the capital of the gods, I heard that two bachelors had a nephew who was smart. I didn’t expect to see him today, he is really lucky.”
He Zhizhang's grandfather, He Deren, was a bachelor of the imperial family in the Sui Dynasty. Later, after entering this dynasty, he successively served as the prince's minister, the prince's horse wash, and the prince's bachelor. Although he died of illness soon, he escaped a catastrophe. .

Because the prince served by the He family is Prince Yin Li Jiancheng.
In addition, the He family was friendly with Qi King Li Yuanji. Therefore, during the Taizong and Gaozong dynasties, although the children of the He family were prosperous, they were not valued by the court. This is the reason.
He Zhizhang became famous at a young age, but he really started his career after Wu Zhou and during the Xuanzong period. The reason for this is self-evident.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Mr. Zian has arrived in Jiangdu. I wonder if I can meet him." He Zhizhang stared straight at Li Xuan, not caring about the identity gap between the two parties. What he wanted and what he wanted to say was extremely direct.
Si Ming Kuang Ke has been crazy since childhood.
Li Xuan smiled calmly and said, "Sir, he went out of the city to visit friends. As for where he went, I didn't ask anything about him."
He Zhizhang came for Wang Bo and spoke very directly.
But looking at the people around him, many of them were actually coming after Wang Bo.
"I don't know when my husband will be back, so I might as well pay him a visit." He Zhizhang did not give up easily and stepped forward to ask.
"I will definitely come back tomorrow evening, because I will go south to Runzhou in the morning. If brother He Xian is free, he can go to the post house to ask for a visit. However, whether you can see me depends on your wishes." Li Xuan's attitude He was still gentle, not because He Zhizhang was a celebrity in later generations, but because behind him stood the Qiantang He family and the Wujun Lu family.
The real master of Southeast began to show traces of himself.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" He Zhizhang breathed a sigh of relief and stepped back, but there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
He Zhizhang and Wang Bo, Li Xuan couldn't help but want to laugh.
It feels like they are from two eras, but who would have known that the age difference between them is only ten years.
"Your Majesty!" Meng Qingran walked up from behind, pointed at the twelve-year-old boy at the end and said, "This is the Prince Yongchang, Liang Fu."
Liang Fu, who was wearing a green gown, bright eyes, white teeth, and a childish face, immediately cupped his hands towards Li Xuan and said, "Liang Fu has met the Prince of Nanchang."
"I've met Liang Xiandi!" Li Xuan returned the greeting very seriously, but his eyes were looking at Meng Qingran and Lu Yuanfang who were aside.
The expressions on both of their faces were also a little strange, because they both knew that the child in front of them was a little girl.
"I wonder if the Prince of Nanchang County had ever met my father when he was in Luoyang." Liang Fu, like He Zhizhang, stared directly at Li Xuan, but Liang Fu looked even more nervous.
Li Xuan raised her eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help but recall the night in Shendu Garden, where the Thousand-Faced Buddha Gao Gao died in his hands, and the Chang'an concubine Jin Fu died in Zuo Qianniu Guard's secret prison.
Yongchang Bo Liang Ming's token fell into their hands, and Yongchang Bo might not survive.
"It seems that I have met him before, but I didn't talk to him." Li Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Because I have a sacred mandate, I set off early, so I was unable to attend the crown prince's canonization ceremony. Yongchang Bo should have arrived after the crown prince's canonization ceremony. He will set off to return south, probably three to five days later than me, and if something happens, it will be even later. Why, didn't Uncle Yongchang send a message to the mansion?"
This time in Luoyang, no one expected that the emperor would announce Li Xian as the new prince after the 36th day of the prince's funeral.
Therefore, the original schedule had to be postponed for a few days. If there were rewards and appointments, the time might be delayed even longer.
Even not being able to come back is normal.
"I don't know." Liang Fuyan
There was a flash of confusion, but then he held his hands with a clear expression and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Young Master, you're welcome!" Li Xuan looked up at Lu Yuanfang and said with a smile: "Seeing all the dignitaries today, I finally regained some confidence. Not everyone in this world is like Wang Zi'an or Yang Lingming. Otherwise, In this world, there is no room for my generation to show off."
Yang Jiong passed the Jinshi examination at the age of nine, Wang Bo was able to write at the age of six, showed flaws at the age of nine, and passed the exam at sixteen, which means he was already a genius.
He Zhizhang was still a little worse, but at this moment, there was a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.
