Cui Enshun shook his head: "No, our opponent this time is Du He, not those arrogant officials of Datang. I have met Du He three times so far. To be honest, I still can't see him. through him."

The old man sneered and said, "You Cui family are not even afraid of King Rongliu, but you are afraid of Du He? What I am wondering is that you have always been tough before, and you tend to turn against Datang. Why did you suddenly change your mind later? "

Cui Enshun smiled and said: "King Rongliu is getting old. Over the years, the Gao Clan he led has become stronger and stronger, and has gradually ignored Cui Clan's opinions. Sooner or later, he may attack me Cui Clan. Previously, under the order of the patriarch, the mission to Datang was to provoke the war between Datang and Goguryeo, so that the Emperor of Datang could not bear to send troops to teach King Rongliu and his Gao family a lesson... But now it is different, if there is With the help of Dream Group, I, Cui, can rise quickly, and at that time, I will not take Gao in my eyes..."

The old man sneered and said: "Your idea is to let the people of Dream Group set foot on the land of Goguryeo, and they will never return, and get all the secret glass manufacturing recipes of Dream Group, right?"

Cui Enshun smiled like an old fox, nodded, and said, "That's right! So, before we leave Chang'an, we must be careful when we do things, and we must not offend Du He."

The old man sighed: "If you seek skin from a tiger, you may lose your life."

Cui Enshun didn't take it seriously: "In Chang'an, it was Du He who had the final say, but when he set foot on the land of Goguryeo, he couldn't help it."

……

Time passes day by day.

The disaster relief work in Chang'an City is proceeding in an orderly manner.

Finally, came the twelfth lunar month.

Duhe's disaster relief plan has been fully implemented.

Unknowingly, Chang'an City has completely changed its appearance.

The first is the city wall.

The original Chang'an city wall looked majestic and majestic from a distance, but it was riddled with holes when viewed up close, and some parts were even washed away when the flood came.

After the transformation, the moat became wider, the river bottom was re-excavated manually, and the embankments were all poured with cement concrete. It just looks shocking.

Then there are all the streets including Renmin Avenue, all of which have been turned into concrete roads in the middle, with sidewalks paved with bricks on both sides, which are straight, strong and durable.

Of course, what satisfied the imperial court the most was that Du He took this opportunity to renovate all the dilapidated workshops. Nowadays, in Chang'an City, it is very difficult to see such dilapidated and dilapidated workshops. houses.

When the envoys from all over the world came to Chang'an, they couldn't help feeling: the capital of the Tang Dynasty was too prosperous, it was like a fairyland.

……

The fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.

early morning.

Outside Yongning Gate.

A convoy is coming.

The convoy stopped slowly, the curtain of one of the carriages was lifted, and a figure jumped down, galloping towards the city gate.

Under the city gate, several people were waiting.

The leader was Du Ruhui, followed by Du He, the two princesses, and Du Jinwei.

The man rushed over, prostrated himself in front of Du Ruhui, kowtowed three times, and said with tears in his eyes: "My child, I pay my respects to my father. My child is not filial. When my father was seriously ill, I failed to show my filial piety in front of him." , ask father to punish."

That's right, this person is Du Gou who came all the way from Dengzhou.

At the beginning, Du Ruhui was infected with tuberculosis, so he went to Dengzhou to study, and asked Du Gou to hurry back to Chang'an.

But at this backward time, it took a long time for the letter to be sent to Dengzhou. After the Du Gou family set off from Dengzhou, they also experienced many twists and turns along the way, and it took more than half a year to reach Chang'an City.

Du Ruhui hurriedly helped Du Gou up, and said, "Son, you went to Dengzhou because the imperial court sent you there. Dengzhou is far away, and you have suffered so much. How can I blame you for my father? He'er has been cured for my father. His Majesty, Long En, granted permission for my father to recuperate in the mansion, and my father is recovering very well now..."

Du Gou confirmed again and again, seeing that Du Ruhui was fine, he laughed, laughed, and started crying again.

If you are too far away from home, you will miss your hometown and your loved ones.

At this time, Du Jinwei came over and said dissatisfiedly: "Father, you are such an adult, how can you cry when you meet each other? Look, there are many people watching around. If you want to cry, go back to the Duke of Lai's mansion and cry." .”

Du Gou blushed immediately, and wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, "I didn't cry, it was because the wind was too strong, and I squinted my eyes, who said daddy cried!"

Then, he turned around and looked at Du He.

Du Gou walked over with a limp on his right foot, and slapped Du He on the shoulder suddenly.

Du He suddenly felt pain.

Good guy, this strength is too great.

Du He hurriedly asked: "Brother, your leg?"

Du Gou laughed: "It's okay, when I went to sea to kill the thieves, I was shot by an arrow... He'er, you have grown up, I know what you have done in Chang'an City in the past few years. Mansion, Mrs. Du, it's up to you..."

Du He shook his head and said seriously: "Brother, this is your fault. You are the eldest son of the Duke of Lai, and it is your responsibility to honor your ancestors. Don't try to shirk your responsibility."

But Du Gou shook his head: "He'er, what you said... Sigh, although I am a civil servant, I haven't studied much, and my father is upright, and he doesn't want to sacrifice his face to ask His Majesty, and now I am disabled. In this life, this is probably the case. This time when I come to Beijing, His Majesty will probably not let me go out again, maybe let me spend my days idle in the court. That's fine, my father is getting old, and in the future, I will be the one. If you take care of your father, you will be able to make a good contribution, the title is gone, and you can earn more..."

Although Du Gou is a Dengzhou Sima, he is a standard civil servant.But Dengzhou is near the sea, and the islands are ferocious. He has been in charge of going out to sea to suppress bandits all year round. Over time, his character has been tempered to be bold and heroic, just like a warrior.

However, when it comes to his own experience, Du Gou can't help but sigh.

Hearing this, Du He thought for a while, then smiled and said: "It's up to man, brother, don't give up on yourself. Today, we are members of the family, let alone these unhappy things, let's go and go to the city. We haven't seen each other for many years. Today, we will be together." Just get drunk."

"it is good!"

"Enter the city!"

The convoy marched into the city mightily.

……

Lai Guo Gongfu.

Decorating lanterns and festoons is not Chinese New Year, but better than Chinese New Year.

Du Gou left Chang'an for five years and finally returned.

Du Ruhui was the happiest. He drank a few more glasses at the table, and then was helped down.

Du Gou was also enthusiastic at the beginning, but in the end, his expression was worried, and his face was full of worries.

Du He put down his wine glass and asked, "Brother, are you busy? Could it be that you still care about what you said to me outside Yongning Gate just now?"

Du Gou shook his head and said movingly: "He'er, elder brother is not worried about his own future, but worried about his father. I heard you just said that a few months ago, my father's resignation letter was handed over to the palace. His Majesty has never agreed to his father's appointment. Request, although this is a tactic to slow down the army, but after a long time, it is impossible for His Majesty to agree. Once my father loses the position of right minister, I am afraid that many Xiaoxiao will jump out in this court. At that time, you will be in great danger..."
