Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty

His Majesty Li Er leaned on Pingji and opened the letter, only to see that it was not Li Yuanying's name for him at the beginning of the letter, but the word "Cheng Qian". He raised his brows and knew that Li Yuanying had caused an oolong.

His Majesty Li Er never paid attention to any indecent assault, and the letter was delivered to him, of course he read it before speaking. He swept down and saw Li Yuanying praised Li Chengqian indiscriminately. Only by looking at ten sentences could he pick out a key point. He suddenly snorted, feeling that this kid was too insatiable and what he wrote about!

After choosing and reading for the most part, His Majesty Li Er learned from the letter that what they were communicating was about Xuanzang's return to the east.

Xuanzang went west without notifying the court, but when he returned, he deliberately asked the court for general documents because he brought back more than 600 books and a hundred relics. So many scriptures, if no one helped, it would be difficult for Xuanzang to translate all of them in his entire life!

Li Chengqian also asked him to report this matter to His Majesty Li Er as soon as possible, saying that he had selected a group of Buddhist disciples to help Xuanzang translate the scriptures and write "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty".

Both His Majesty Li Er and Li Chengqian were more interested in "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty", and even wanted Xuanzang to return to the vulgar to administer the Western Regions for the court, but Xuanzang himself was obviously more interested in translating Buddhist scriptures.

Since the scripture allows monks to travel far and wide, Li Chengqian believes that as long as there are enough benefits, many merchants are definitely willing to re-enter the Silk Road. Therefore, Li Chengqian planned to let Fengtailou write some stories about the Western Regions and spread it to the outside world. It does not have to be related to Buddhism, as long as it can attract people.

The territory of Datang is currently so large, so much food can be grown, and the wealth that can be accumulated will not increase out of thin air. Therefore, some people of insight must be encouraged to go to the Western Regions for exchanges, and buy everything they want. The useful ones will come back, and what they lack, Datang can also send them!

Even if Li Yuanying's ostentatiously "advancing closeness and good neighborliness" cannot be achieved, the neighboring countries must be turned into fertile ground for the development of Datang.

Only in this way can we communicate with each other so that Datang can truly be full of vitality.

These opinions were discussed by Li Chengqian and Li Yuanying. Li Chengqian did not hide it, and they all told his Majesty Li Er.

It is precisely because the selected serious content is known to His Majesty Li Er, so His Majesty Li Er looked at it and felt that the letter was written as useless, all nonsense!

His Majesty Li Er snorted in his heart when he read a sentence, and then saw Li Yuanying say that he missed the days of playing with her eldest nephew. His Majesty Li Er felt that this kid did not grow at all, and he still wanted to play when he was so old.

His Majesty Li Er wrote a letter of reprimand on the spot, scolding Li Yuanying bloody, saying that he can even pretend the letter is wrong, and how he can do other things better. Halfway through the reprimand letter, someone came to report that the prince had arrived.

His Majesty Li Er was in a bad mood and asked people to put Li Chengqian in.

Li Chengqian was in charge of sitting in Chang'an. He shouldn't have left without permission, but as soon as he saw the letter sent to him, Li Chengqian couldn't sit still. The letter Li Yuanying wrote to him should not contain any ulterior motives. But considering Li Yuanying's unobstructed virtue in his mouth, Li Chengqian still felt that he had to catch him personally!

In order to rush to retrieve the wrong letter, Li Chengqian went straight to Cuiwei Palace without stopping for a moment. Along the way, he even thought about several topics that needed to be consulted with His Majesty Li Er. He was ready to ask his majesty for advice before he said something casually. Letter thing.

His Majesty Li Er probably wouldn't read Li Yuanying's letter for the first time!

Li Chengqian's plan was perfect, and His Majesty Li Er was also very cooperative. He didn't mention anything he had read and believed, so he listened to the serious things that Li Chengqian found out temporarily.

After Li Chengqian felt that the business was about to be discussed, he tried to pretend that Li Yuanying was wrong and told His Majesty Li Er.

Li Chengqian said, "I didn't think it was right at the beginning, so I didn't look down." Li Chengqian was telling the truth. He really didn't have a peek at Li Yuanying's letter. After all, His Majesty Li Er privately gave the letter to others. The habit of seeing, he doesn't need to look secretly at all!

His Majesty Li Er seemed to have just remembered the letter, and said calmly: "I have read the letter your uncle wrote to you." He asked someone to take out the wrong letter from Li Yuanying and return it to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian: "..."

Li Chengqian withdrew the letter silently. Knowing that His Majesty Li Er had already read the letter, he didn't have to rush over to intercept it! He complained to Li Yuanying in his heart, couldn't this kid check it before pretending to be a letter? This is all right, His Majesty Li Er has read the letter ceremoniously!

At this point, Li Chengqian could only secretly pray that Li Yuanying didn't write anything that shouldn't be written.

The son came here, and Li Er did not drive him away, leaving him for a meal, and by the way read Li Yuanying's wrong letter. Li Yuanying's letter also boasted that the sky was overwhelming. First, he said how good Yan Lide he borrowed, and how good Li Chunfeng he borrowed. With them, his plan for the Pearl of the Orient is really even more powerful! What's left is to explain his plan to issue tickets, saying that as long as those who have surplus money in Henan Province's hands all put out their consistent money to support the construction of the seaport, the seaport will be built soon!

His Majesty Li Er read the letter and found that Li Yuanying had given another fresh idea.

This is lightly said, but it is not easy to do it! If you really want to count this way, as long as each of the people of Datang pays a consistent amount of money, wouldn't it be possible to have 10 to 20 million? As for the profit Li Yuanying said, it is all about paying out money to build a seaport and train a navy. Where can we make a profit?

His Majesty Li Er said: "Your Uncle Yao is too optimistic."

Li Chengqian said, "Maybe Uncle Yao can do it?"

His Majesty Li Er made a final decision: "Then let him do it."

Since he allowed Li Yuanying to take Li Dejian and Du He over, he allowed Li Yuanying and Li Chengqian to form a navy.

This time, Goryeo's service was weakened. Not only did they return most of the city of Silla, but they also gave sincere tributes and coins. His Majesty Li Er wanted to fight but couldn't speak to the civil servants in the DPRK. However, in the heart of His Majesty Li Er, Goryeo still had to fight sooner or later. Na Yuan Gai Suwen didn't put Datang in his eyes at all. This time he was softened because of their internal and external difficulties, and they didn't want to recruit the Grand Master of the Tang Dynasty!

Since it is going to fight, the navy must be well trained, so as to realize the joint outflanking of both land and water, and take down Goryeo all at once.

His Majesty Li Er is very at ease with Li Yuanying and Li Chengqian. He is willing to let them go and try. Of course, if they failed his trust, he would never be merciful.

Li Chengqian understood the meaning of His Majesty Li Er's words, and naturally made another statement: "Uncle Yao and the others will definitely not let the father down."

His Majesty Li Er didn't say anything, and the father and son sent Li Chengqian back after eating together.

It was still early, and His Majesty Li Er continued to write back letters to Li Yuanying. In the second half of the letter, His Majesty Li Er still scolded Li Yuanying bloody, saying that he was exaggerated and unrealistic. Just forget about messing around in Chang'an, do you think there are people who will support him in Henan Province?

After a nasty scolding, His Majesty Li Er said: If you can do it, you will do it, anyway, the court will not give money. If you are scolded by Wei Zheng and the others, just carry it yourself!

After scolding Li Yuanying like this, His Majesty Li Er felt a little more comfortable. Just thinking of Li Yuanying's compliments to Li Chengqian, Majesty Li Er still feels unsatisfied. This kid actually praises everyone when he sees it. It's really unprincipled, a lively flattering villain!

At any rate, he is also the prince of Tang Dynasty, why is he so embarrassed to praise the prince so shamelessly? People who don’t know look at it, and they can’t tell what to say about him!

The more His Majesty Li Er thought about it, the more he felt reasonable, and added a paragraph to the end of the letter on the spot, seriously warning Li Yuanying not to write this kind of letter to Li Chengqian. Even if he doesn't care about his reputation, don't let Li Chengqian get stuck on the backbone!

As for what he wrote, it was his brother’s respect and love to his elder brother. After listening to others, he would only feel that they are brothers and friends respectful, and would not gossip!

In short, it is not allowed to write to the prince, but continue to write to him. His Majesty Li Er finished writing the letter and read it again, and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. That was the reason!

His Majesty Li Er asked someone to send this thick reply letter to Tengzhou, especially instructed the person who sent the letter to let Li Yuanying take a good look and reflect on it!

After being so upset by Li Yuanying, His Majesty Li Er wanted to see Xuanzang. He asked someone to go to Hongfu Temple and order Xuanzang to come over tomorrow.

Although His Majesty Li Er did not believe in Buddhism, he was still very interested in what Xuanzang brought back from the Western Regions. He also wanted to personally persuade Xuanzang to return Xuanzang as an official.

Xuanzang was able to travel through more than 100 countries in the Western Regions without the support of the imperial court. His skills are not small. Such a capable person cannot be used by the imperial court. His Majesty Li Er feels regretful!

Early the next morning, when His Majesty Li Er and Wei Zheng finished discussing government affairs, Xuanzang came.

Compared with the last time I met with Li Chengqian, Xuanzang now has a clear understanding of the current situation in Chang'an and a better understanding of Li Yuanying. He was able to judge that Li Yuanying, like His Majesty Li Er, was not a person who believed in the principles of Buddhism. They were only going to use Buddhism as a tool.

Xuanzang felt very sad about this.

It is not for translating and disseminating the scriptures, he would rather not have the honor of seeing the emperor. He has no restrictions on entering the dynasty and being an official, nor is he interested in being admired by thousands of people. He just wants to pass on his sincerity to more Buddhist disciples. Unfortunately, even Buddhist disciples, many are unwilling to study the scriptures sincerely!

Among the masses of beings, there are few people who trust the Buddha with integrity, and there are many people who seek personal gain in the name of Buddha.

Xuanzang sighed in his heart, and went inside to see His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er really repeated the old saying, expressing the hope that Xuanzang would return to the vulgar.

Xuanzang refused again.

His Majesty Li Er was not surprised, and invited Xuanzang to have tea and talk about his trip to the Western Regions.

Xu was influenced by Li Yuanying, and His Majesty Li Er now likes to listen to people telling stories. As for the veracity of the story, His Majesty Li Er didn't care. As long as more people are sent to the Western Regions in the future, the truth will be found out!

The two had a good conversation. His Majesty Li Er generously assigned Xuanzang to approve people, all of whom had just returned from Tubo. He had the experience of helping his younger brother to compile "The Travel Notes of Tubo", and he was quite suitable for participating in the translation of the scriptures and scriptures. Compiled "Da Tang Western Regions".

Xuanzang responded gratefully.

His Majesty Li Er also rewarded Xuanzang with a watermelon and asked Xuanzang to take it back to taste it. He said that his younger brother had asked him to retrieve it from the place westward from Tubo.

His Majesty Li Er said a sentence from the left to the younger brother and the right to the younger brother. Xuanzang quickly understood it, and praised Li Yuanying with kindness.

His Majesty Li Er was very satisfied and happily let him go.

Xuanzang came out of Cuiwei Palace holding a big and round watermelon, and said silently in his heart: Twenty years ago, who would have imagined that His Majesty Li Er would raise his younger brother as a son? You can raise it if you raise it, and you should also expressly imply that others praise him for raising it well! What's wrong!

The author has something to say: a critical issue in travel!

Little Prince: What about me, what about me?
