Rebirth of Tang Dynasty as a dad

After pondering for a moment, Du Shaoqing said: "It's better to send him a group of people and let him secretly form his own hidden guards. It's easy to hide a spear and it's hard to defend against it. When he set off, he brought so many people with him. It’s all in the open, and many things cannot be done by these people.”

Li Er narrowed his eyes, stared at Du Shaoqing's eyes, and asked with deep meaning: "You Chengqian's mentor, did you not teach these things?"

Du Shaoqing didn't shy away from it, and laughed loudly: "Firstly, I don't understand, and secondly, I should not teach these things. He is a prince, and his father-in-law should have taught these things by hand, but I didn't expect him to go to the Southwest all of a sudden. .”

"You are so humble!

You don't have to go around like this when talking to me, I can trust you, even if you taught Emperor Chengqian the tricks of mind, I won't blame you.

It is no exaggeration to say that I trust you more than I trust many sons. " Li Er stretched out his hand and patted his son-in-law's shoulder.

The old father-in-law said it with sincerity, although Du Shaoqing was moved, he didn't dare to believe it all.

"Forget it, since you don't want to travel far, you should stay in Chang'an. If your talent is really limited to one city and one place, you will be wronged.

Chengqian will find another way, if he comes back after five years of experience, this is the last lesson."

How about the last lesson, Li Er didn't say any more, and Du Shaoqing didn't want to know, after all, five years later, Li Er would only be 45 years old, at the age of his prime, could it be possible that he would abdicate after teaching his son?

After attending the family banquet in the palace, Du Shaoqing returned to his home, and did not reveal anything about the prince to his family, just like the emperor, even the queen did not tell these things.

From Chang'an to the southwestern Tubo Road, not to mention the straight-line distance of thousands of miles, and it is all rugged mountain roads. It is extremely difficult to transmit information. There is a saying that the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Even if something happens to the prince, I am afraid that Chang'an will need one at the soonest month to receive the message.

After thinking about it, Du Shaoqing felt that this would not work. Unfortunately, there are no mobile phones in this era, not even radio stations.

Du Shaoqing is a medical student, and he doesn't know how to make these things. At most, he is a popular basic physics. It is no problem for him to build the cheapest generator, but it is difficult for him to make a telegraph.

So in order to solve the problem of information transmission, he finally chose the ancient carrier pigeon method, which is the simplest and has no technical difficulty.

Datang's fastest way to transmit information is eight hundred miles, but that is also a messenger riding a horse, which is extremely inconvenient.

It is said that the carrier pigeon's means of sending messages existed in the Three Kingdoms period, but after experiencing the disaster of Wuhuluanhua, faults appeared in almost all cultures, and many brilliant things were submerged in the long river of history and lost.

And when Du Shaoqing took out the carrier pigeon signaling technology, Li Er was so happy that he wanted to reward him directly.

Why such a big reaction?

Because there is an unacceptable saying in ancient times, that is, the place where information can penetrate in one day is the core ruling area of ​​a dynasty, etc., and the place that an army can reach in one month is the farthest border that a dynasty can rule. In this day and age, information transmission is so important.

After Du Shaoqing took the child to pay New Year's greetings to the acquainted elders in Chang'an according to the etiquette, when he returned home, the princess mentioned one thing, that is, the child learned Hongguan, and he had a mentorship with Master Hongguan, so he also I went to visit Yan Shigu's house during the New Year's Eve.

Thinking of old man Yan, Du Shaoqing shivered for no reason, "Madam, why don't you go instead of my husband this year? After all, you are also Master Yan's student."

Seeing her husband's embarrassment, Princess Changle covered her mouth and laughed.

But this time there is no refusal, "Well, I will go with my husband this time as a concubine. In fact, Mrs. Yan is very easy to get along with. As long as you abide by the rules and regulations when you come to his house, and don't act independently, you will be fine."

"Shou, you must abide by the etiquette. This time, you must behave yourself so that the old man can't find any faults." Du Shaoqing repeatedly promised.

So the three members of the Du family drove a carriage to Yan's house in Chang'an City, and the little girl Xuan Xuan, dressed in a cute little fox fur cape, went up to call the door.

The concierge opened the door and saw that there was a cute little girl carved in pink and jade, and he was immediately curious.

Xiao Xuanxuan said politely: "Hello, I am a student of Hongguan, and I brought my father and mother to pay New Year's greetings to Teacher Yan."

Clear, courteous, plus a suit of luxurious clothes, the concierge knew that he was extraordinary at a glance. After asking his name, the concierge hurried in to report.

Yan Shigu had nothing to do, he was chatting with his two sons around the stove, when he heard that Du Xuanxuan brought his parents, the old man couldn't help but laugh, only this child could say such upside-down words.

"Let's go, the honored guest is coming, follow me to meet my father." Yan Shigu instructed his two sons.

"Father, a student came to pay New Year's greetings. You go out to greet him in person? I haven't heard of it. Which prince is here?" The eldest son of the Yan family questioned.

The youngest son echoed: "Even the prince back then did not have such courtesy.

Father, just sit down for a while, and the child will go out to greet you for you. "

Master Yan reprimanded with a straight face: "What do you know? The people here are Du Shaoqing's son-in-law, Princess Changle and daughter Princess Xuanyang. Ordinary people are not qualified to greet father."

what?

When the second child of the Yan family exclaimed, the boss of the Yan family had already rushed out. Obviously, he was in a hurry to go out to meet him.

Yan Shigu's face darkened, and he thought that the eldest son was too snobbish, and he heard that it was Du Shaoqing, so panicked?He was not so active in welcoming his father.

Seeing this situation, Yan Shigu knew that it was not appropriate for him to go out any longer, so he simply stood at the door of the living room and waited.

Du Shaoqing's family was dizzy and was taken in by a caring and shameless young man. Originally, Du Shaoqing was still thinking, who is this guy?Being so attentive, I even thought this was the Du family, not the Yan family.

After hearing Yan Shigu's explanation, Du Shaoqing realized that he was the eldest son of the Yan family?Anyway, it is also a well-known family of poets and books, so it is a bit too low profile.

"Boss, put away your philistine face, you have completely disgraced your father's face." Yan Shigu reprimanded.

Du Shaoqing was surprised and said: "Oh? So, brother Yan is also a businessman? I don't know what kind of business you are doing?"

Yan Shigu explained with a dark face: "It is said that he is a businessman, and he is praised. If he does not read good poems and books, he is greedy for money. He does all kinds of business, and seeks opportunities wherever he has money, but so far he has achieved nothing."

The boss of the Yan family was exposed by his father, so he blushed and said, "Father, why can't you save face for your son when a guest comes to the house for the first time? Anyway, the child is going to walk in Chang'an, so how can he mess around in the future?"

Yan Shigu scolded: "You don't like reading, as a father, you know that coercion is useless, so you don't force it.

If you were a businessman like Consort Du, you would even burn incense as a father to comfort the Yan family's ancestors. After all, your descendants did not dishonor the Yan family's reputation, but look at yourself, do you have any achievements that you can achieve? "

The boss of the Yan family lowered his head instantly, and muttered in a low voice: "I want you to introduce me, and cooperate with Consort Du to make a difference, but you care too much about feathers, what can I do?"

Du Shaoqing and his wife never expected that they would encounter such a thing when they came to this great Confucian's house for the first time, and they were a little embarrassed for a while.

At this time, Xiao Xuanxuan curiously pulled the clothes of the boss of the Yan family and said: "Uncle, if you want to make money, you can come to me. I am the little God of Wealth in Chang'an, and I will guarantee that you will make a steady profit in your business."

I

The boss of the Yan family is embarrassed, and seems to be laughed at by a little girl.

Yan Shigu said: "You are my student, he is my son, don't call him uncle, just call him brother."

Xiao Xuanxuan bit her finger, wondering: "I don't have such an old brother."

The boss of the Puyan family vomits blood!

Du Shaoqing said: "The younger generation is very interested in this brother Yan, but anyone who loves one thing since childhood is not an ordinary person, can I let the younger generation chat with Brother Yan?

How about letting Chang Le and Xuan Xuan talk to Master first? "

Yan Shigu didn't expect Du Shaoqing to say that, his heart moved, he nodded and said: "It's rare for someone to like a dog, Shaoqing, you are called a businessman born out of nowhere, look at the old man's face, give him a few pointers." good."

Bringing Du Shaoqing to the side hall, the boss of the Yan family rubbed his hands impatiently and said, "My son-in-law, I have admired your name for a long time, and you are the founder of new-style paintings. Can you draw a portrait for me?"

"Hehe, Brother Yan, you don't have to be so polite, you and I are of the same generation, and brothers are just as good as each other.
