Chapter 3 Invitation, Influence

Chang'an Palace

"Niangniang, An Xuangong has returned."

A respectful voice sounded in the ears of Empress Changsun, making Empress Changsun's face carry a hint of joy.

"Order someone to invite An Xuangong to come to the palace."

"And order the kitchen to cook a few more dishes."

"In addition, let the three of them come here to eat."

....

Empress Changsun slowly instructed to know that her father had left Chang'an for ten years, even if her son Gao Ming was only eight years old, and Qingque's words were only six years old.

As for her daughter Changle, she is only five years old, and she has never met her father, this time she can't help but take advantage of this introduction to get to know each other.

In a palace

"Your Majesty, the great drought in Guanzhong has led to countless starvations."

"Folk rice fighting rice is about to catch up with the price of a piece of cloth."

"If this goes on for a long time, the people will not be able to make a living, and I am afraid that the world will be chaotic again."

......

A steady voice sounded, this person was Fang Xuanling, the Zhongshu Ling.

Fang Xuanling talked eloquently and presented the entire Guanzhong famine to this emperor.

However, although Li Shimin's face was listening, in fact, there was some absent-mindedness, which even a few ministers on the side could feel.

"Let's do it the same way."

Li Shimin said a little perfunctorily, revealing a thoughtful look.

Several ministers around couldn't help but look at the green-shirted scribe standing at the top, as if to say that you go and ask.

Because this person is the eldest grandson Wuji, as the elder brother of the eldest grandson queen, that is, Li Shimin's eldest brother, the first thing that everyone thinks of is the eldest grandson Wuji.

"I wonder if there is anything important about Your Majesty?"

Eldest Sun Wuji's eyes flashed with a glimmer of essence and said slowly, of course, his heart was not as calm as on the surface.

"A bunch of old foxes!"

The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but scold secretly in his heart, to know that the royal family is no trivial matter, even if he has the identity of a relative.

But there are some things that he can't know, and of course his heart is not as he wants, but even he has to admit that it is most appropriate for him to ask.

"An Xuangong has returned to Chang'an today."

Li Shimin's gaze swept over the ministers present, and then said softly, there seemed to be a trace of emotion in his words.

After the words fell, the ministers present couldn't help but be stunned, An Xuangong This is a legendary name.

You must know that this person is not a prince of the country, nor is he a noble, but being able to be called a public is a name recognized by the whole world.

"Has the teacher returned to Chang'an?"

The eldest grandson Wuji was the first to speak out, with a hint of joy in his words, An Xuancheng was his first teacher and also a friend of his father.

is also his sister's second father, it can be said that An Xuangong and his eldest grandson Wuji have a close and inseparable relationship.

"The students also want to visit An Xuangong."

A blue-shirted scribe couldn't help but speak, and there seemed to be a hint of adoration in his words.

If there were stars in the Tang Dynasty, then Shu An would be a real superstar, from the scholars to the common people's pawns, all of whom knew the name of An Xuangong.

This person is Du Ruhui, Li Shimin's right-hand man, from Tiance Mansion to the current Shangshu servant, is actually the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.

"Keming, I didn't expect you to respect An Xuangong so much."

Li Shimin couldn't help but say quietly, his words seemed to have some jealousy, if it weren't for An Xuangong being his father-in-law, and there would be no family and rights to speak of.

He may even doubt his father-in-law, after all, An Xuangong's name is extremely influential.

"The students once listened to An Xuangong's lectures."

Du Ruhui said with some embarrassment on his face, you must know that there are countless people who have listened to An Xuangong's lectures, and there are so many students, and he is only one of them.

As for Fang Xuanling on the side, his face was a little curious, in fact, he had been famous for this An Xuangong for a long time.

I even read his articles often, and I have benefited a lot from them, and it would be best if I could meet him.

The disturbances between Li Shimin and the ministers did not affect Shu An, because the carriage from the palace had already arrived at the door of Shu Mansion.

"Laifu, come with me."

Shu An said slowly, he naturally has his own plans, you must know that Laifu's age is younger than himself, and he is familiar with that one.

It can be said that they are acquaintances, naturally Xue Rengui's disciple doesn't matter, after all, he is still young, and he is not in a hurry at this time.

"Yes, sir!"

Laifu said with a hint of excitement on his face, knowing that this was entering the palace, even he didn't expect that he would be able to enter one day.

Compared with Laifu, an existence that has followed Shu An for decades, Xue Rengui is obviously inferior.

At this time, Xue Rengui's face was full of doubt, he didn't know who his teacher had gone to see, but this was not something he should ask.

"Step, step!"

As a richly decorated carriage slowly headed towards the palace, Shu An's eyes fell on the window, enjoying the tranquility of the city.

.......

"Why haven't you come yet?"

Empress Eldest Sun couldn't help but look at the outside of the palace, and kept muttering softly in her mouth, with a hint of expectation in her words.

"Queen Mother, hasn't Grandpa An come yet?"

A crisp voice sounded, and the voice that made it was a little fat man, who was Li Tai, the second word of the eldest grandson queen.

At this time, this little fat man couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he looked at the food on the table, knowing that now the Tang Dynasty was just established, and all kinds of waste were in ruins.

Not to mention that it coincided with the great drought in Guanzhong, even the palace was frugal, let alone such a large harem.

Among them, there are not a few concubines, and they have to spend a lot, and they don't know the cost of firewood, rice, oil and salt, all in all, even the eldest grandson queen is usually just a few simple dishes.

And in order to welcome the arrival of her father this time, the eldest grandson queen has changed her previous frugality, and even has some beef and a lot of pastries and so on.

"Qingque, wait, it should be soon."

Empress Changsun looked at the three children and couldn't help but say loudly, with a hint of distress in her words, to know that it was because she was the queen.

Naturally, you have to lead by example, otherwise there will definitely be grievances in the harem, so you will also treat several children equally.

"Okay!"

The little fat man said weakly, but at the same time, he was also curious about this grandfather An who had never met.

This is the second father of the queen mother, just like the father of the emperor, that is, the grandfather of the emperor, although the queen mother explained a lot, but Xiao Fatzi remembered a few words.

On the contrary, Li Chengqian, who is already eight years old, looks upright, and obviously has the ability to think for himself.
