Prince of Tang Dynasty

It was evening when Li Zhi arrived at Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs.

Li Yu and Li Mingda also just came back from Bailu Village, and they were frightened when they saw Li Zhi coming with "magnificence".

Li Zhi didn't come alone, but came with twenty guards armed with swords.

These twenty guards with swords were all tall and tall, exuding a cold aura from all over their bodies, making people feel chills just by looking at them.

Li Yu and Li Mingda looked at each other, not understanding why Li Zhi brought so many people here.Suddenly there was a bad premonition, Li Yu's face became panicked, and he said to Li Mingda: "Couldn't these people be sent by Aye to arrest us?"

Li Mingda felt that it was very possible when Li Yu said that, and suddenly panicked, "Then what should we do, are we going to run away now?"

Li Yu looked at the twenty guards at the gate of Zhuangzi, and sighed resentfully: "We can escape the first day of the junior high school, but we can't escape the fifteenth day."

Li Mingda raised his pink mouth and said unhappily: "I still want to live in Zhuangzi for a few more days."

Li Yu reached out and patted Li Mingda's shoulder, "Go, let's go and have a look."

When Li Yu and the others took a closer look and saw that they were moving things from the carriage on Monday and Wednesday, they were even more puzzled. They didn't understand what was going on?

The guards who followed Li Zhi came, to be precise, the soldiers found Li Yu and Li Mingda, and hurriedly saluted them: "See His Royal Highness King Rui and Princess Jinyang."

The other soldiers also quickly saluted: "See His Royal Highness King Rui and Princess Jinyang."

Only at this time did Li Yu realize that the twenty soldiers following Li Zhi were the sixteen guards.The person who was the first to salute them just now was an old acquaintance, Song Zhengyi, one of the sixteen guards who had been guarding the Ganlu Hall.

The sixteen guards belong directly to the emperor and are the national army.When not going on an expedition, he would stay in the imperial city.If an expedition is to be made, generally after the emperor and the prime minister agree, an edict is issued to the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War then issues a deed to send troops to each prefecture or prefecture at the same time as the edict.

In the past few years, the battles in Datang have not been as frequent as in previous years.Therefore, the sixteen guards have not had the opportunity to go out in recent years.However, the members of the sixteen guards were all members of the former King Qin's army, and they fought with Li Shimin all the year round, so each of them exuded a chilling aura from top to bottom.

Li Yu often went to Ganlu Palace, so he naturally knew Song Zhengyi. When he saw him, he asked directly: "General Song, you didn't come to arrest me under the order of Aye, did you?"

Listening to Li Yu's words, Song Zhengyi unconsciously revealed a smile in his eyes: "His Royal Highness, the emperor sent officials to protect you, not to arrest you."

"Protect me?" Li Yu didn't quite believe it, and looked at Song Zhengyi suspiciously, "Aye would be so kind to ask you to protect me?"

Song Zhengyi was almost amused by Li Yu's words, but fortunately he held back.

"His Royal Highness Rui, I really didn't come here to arrest you, but to protect you." His Royal Highness Rui Wang is really too funny. If the emperor heard His Royal Highness Rui said that, he would definitely curse in anger. His Royal Highness King Rui. "The emperor learned that you and the princess will live in Zhuangzi for a few days, and was worried about the safety of you and the princess, so he sent officials to protect you."

When Li Mingda heard that he was not here to arrest them, he immediately jumped up cheering, "That's great, we don't have to go back to the palace."

"No, why did Old Li send you sixteen guards to protect us?" Li Yu felt that Comrade Old Li's handwriting was too big, and some of them were rushing to show their gallantry and steal, "Is there something tricky about it? ?”

When Song Zhengyi heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry, His Royal Highness, is the emperor so bad in your heart?

"His Royal Highness Rui, there is really nothing tricky. It is really the emperor who is worried about the safety of you and the princess, so he sent his ministers to protect you." Song Zhengyi thought to himself that the emperor is not here, otherwise His Highness Rui will be angry again. "You and the princess live in such a remote Zhuangzi, the emperor and empress are worried about your comfort, so they sent ministers to protect you."

Li Zhi came out at this time, and when he saw Li Yu and Li Mingda coming back, he quickly ran towards them.

"Xiao Yu'er, Mingda, you are back."

"Ninth Brother, we're back."

"Where did you go?" Li Zhi asked.

"We went to the nearby Bailu Village to extract oil." Li Yu raised his arm and handed it to Li Zhi, "Ninth Brother, smell it, isn't it very fragrant?"

Li Zhi lowered his head and smelled Li Yu's body carefully, and he really smelled a scent of oil.The scent of this oil is not that of sesame oil.

"Little Yu'er, have you successfully squeezed the oil out of the bean?"

Li Yu nodded again and again: "Yes, the soybean oil has been squeezed out successfully."

"Ninth Brother, let me tell you that oil pressing is very interesting." When oil was being pressed in the oil mill of Bailu Village in the afternoon, Li Mingda stared at it like a curious baby. "When the oil is squeezed out, it's really amazing. You must go and see it tomorrow."

Li Zhi was intrigued by Li Mingda's words: "Okay, I will definitely go see it tomorrow."

"Ninth brother, what's going on?" Li Yu still didn't believe Song Zhengyi's words, so he asked Li Zhi again.

"Oh, General Song and the others were sent by my father to protect us." Li Zhi knew what Li Yu was suspicious of, and said to him with a smile: "Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs is too remote, father and mother are worried about our safety, so they sent General Song is here to protect us."

Hearing what Li Zhi said, Li Yu completely believed it.

"Okay." As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yu thought of a very important point, "Brother Jiu, do you want to live in Zhuangzi too?"

"You and Mingda live in Zhuangzi, so I'm sure I'll come too." Li Zhi smiled happily, "Besides, my father and queen also let me accompany you." Although Li Zhi is usually smart and steady, he is still an eight-year-old child .Compared with studying in the palace, he prefers to play with his younger siblings in Zhuangzi.

When Li Yu and Li Mingda heard that Li Zhi was going to live with them in Zhuangzi, they jumped up happily hugging Li Zhi, "That's great."

Seeing that his brother and sister were so happy about his arrival, Li Zhi was also very happy.The three children surrounded the city in a circle, happily jumping up and down.

Song Zhengyi and the others couldn't help laughing when they saw Li Yu and the others happy.

"Brother Nine, let's go, we'll show you the room." Li Yu just walked a few steps, remembered something, and hurriedly asked Tuesday to bring the fresh soybean oil squeezed out this afternoon to the kitchen, and asked the cook to use soybean heads to stir-fry.

He responded on Tuesday, and hurriedly took the bucket of soybean oil that was squeezed out today to the kitchen.

Li Yu and Li Mingda first showed Li Zhi around their room.Because this Zhuangzi used to be the palace of a certain prince in the previous dynasty, the decoration of each room is naturally very luxurious and comfortable, not inferior to their rooms in the Tongxin Hall.

After visiting the room, Li Yu and Li Mingda took Li Zhi to visit the courtyard in Zhuangzili.

The courtyard scenery in Zhuangzi is the most beautiful, with rockery, flowing water, and pavilions, which are very unique and exquisite.

"Ninth brother, what's going on in the palace?" Although Li Yu said that the affairs in the palace had nothing to do with him, he was still concerned.

Li Zhi knew what Li Yu was asking, "After the morning court ended today, my father invited the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty to have a pork feast."

Li Mingda interjected: "The ministers must be astonished."

"Well, the ministers think it's very delicious." Next, Li Zhi vividly told Li Yu and the others about the reactions of the lower and military officials after eating the pork feast.

Li Yu and Li Mingda could imagine the reaction of the ministers after eating the pork feast.

"Brother Prince is very careful, and he even asked people to write various recipes for pork, and then sent them to the ministers." Li Zhi said.

Li Yu raised his thumbs up, "Brother Prince is so witty and caring. He even sent the recipe of pork to the ministers, so that the ministers can take the recipe home and let the cook at home make it."

"Yes." Li Zhi continued, "I heard that after the pork feast, the first thing the ministers did when they returned home was to send people to buy pigs, especially Uncle Cheng. Before I came to Zhuangzi, I heard that Uncle Cheng had already The whole Chang'an city is searching for pigs."

Li Yu was not surprised by Cheng Yaojin's reaction, "There should be no pork in Chang'an City."

"No, so the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty sent people to search for pork outside Chang'an City."

Li Yu thought that fortunately he was smart and bought a lot of pigs in advance, otherwise he would not be able to buy pigs tomorrow.

"I heard that many ministers have already sent people to their hometowns to buy pigs." Li Zhi sighed, "In a few days, pork will be popular all over the Tang Dynasty."

"It's pretty good." Li Yu thought that pork is so delicious, it should have become popular long ago.

"The ministers have been praising the prince's brother all the time." Li Zhi said, "Father gave the promotion of pork to the prince's brother."

Li Yu was not surprised at all. At the beginning, the eldest grandson Wuji approached Li Yu and asked him to hand over the pork banquet to the prince Li Chengqian, in order to let the prince Li Chengqian promote pork, increase the income of the common people, and let the prince Li Chengqian get more from the common people. A good reputation increases Prince Li Chengqian's prestige among the people.

"Isn't the fourth brother going to be pissed to death?" The pork incident will greatly enhance Prince Li Chengqian's reputation and status among the people, and it will give him a sense of presence among the people.In the past, Prince Li Chengqian had a sense of presence among the people, but the sense of presence was not strong.It can be said that the common people know that the prince is there, but nothing else.

The crown prince Li Chengqian did not have much reputation among the people. On the contrary, Wei Wang Li Tai was very famous among the people because he was a great talent and good at calligraphy.The common people in Chang'an City all know that Wei Wang Li Tai is a great calligrapher and is deeply loved by the emperor.

Compared with the talented Wei Wang Li Tai, Prince Li Chengqian has a reputation as an idiot among the people.The common people in Chang'an City all know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not good at writing and ink, not as talented as King Wei Li Tai.

The pork incident this time will make Prince Li Chengqian ruthlessly break it back among the people.Compared with writing and ink, ordinary people are more concerned about livelihood.Pork will increase the income of the common people, and this will make the common people always remember the "favor" of Prince Li Chengqian.

Little cuties, there were only three or four comments in the last chapter, which hit me hard.Let the passion of nine thousand daily changes be extinguished by half in an instant.
