Li Hong slowly closed it after reading the letter, this is Yuan Shuji reported to himself that there was cement passing through Yumen Pass, because he had the royal customs documents, he couldn't check the quantity, and only knew that there was a part of the cement inside.

There is a royal document out of the city! Li Hong knew that it was Yuan Shuji who noticed the abnormality, but he didn't have the right to check it, so he urgently notified himself.

Li Hong was very relieved in his heart, he didn't expect that a word in Yumen Pass would make Yuan Shuji enlighten all of a sudden, and what is even more commendable is that Yuan Shuji's vigilance is so high, after knowing the huge role of cement, I am afraid that he will be more cautious than himself when inspecting the goods in Yumen Pass, otherwise these cements will not be discovered by him.

Li Hong was even wondering, was the hole in the cement bag deliberately poked out?

After letting Xu Yanbo leave, Li Hong thought in his mind that cement is now in Datang, and there are too many businesses that can make it, and it is impossible to investigate it on a large scale.

It can only be checked through the royal pass, and there are not many people who can use the royal pass to take anything out of the Yumen Pass.

But no matter what Li Hong thinks, he doesn't know who is such a loser, and he wants to make money by bringing cement to the Western Regions? Or do you want to betray the country? Or was it fooled?

Thinking of the word fool, Li Hong couldn't help but think of his ruined father, who could give the new money template to Shangguan Minyue to play, I'm afraid it's not impossible to give this cement to others.

Shaking his head helplessly, the stove in the room was burning very strongly, and the little wolf ran to the stove from under his feet to keep warm.

Xia Zhi brought the best grapes, looked at the cute appearance of the little wolf, and suggested: "Master, give the puppy a name." ”

Li Hong has already taken it, how many times have he said it, several of them are simply uncivilized, they are good wolves, they have to call people dogs.

However, Xia Zhi's suggestion reminded him that it was time to give the little wolf a name, so that he could bring it back to Chang'an when the time came. The nobles have raised tigers, and they should not be impeached by the imperial history if they raise a wolf themselves.

"You said that its fur is black and shiny, how about calling him white?" Li Hong looked at the little wolf holding his bones and grinding his teeth, and said with a wink at Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi looked frightened, glanced at Banmei and the others, and pretended to be frightened and said: "Master, make up your own mind, if you name it Bai Chun, I'm afraid you are the only one who is qualified to shout, if we shout, Bai Chun will not eat us." ”

"Call Bai Qi, a famous general of the Warring States, and he is worthy of him." Li Hong suddenly looked a little lonely.

Xia Zhi and Banmei and the others were a little strange, looking at Li Hong's sudden loneliness in his eyes, he was a little unsure whether he was Bai Qi of the Warring States Period in Li Hong's mouth, or Bai Qi who was lying on the stove and gnawing bones.

According to Li Hong, if you can't find Bai Chun's parents, brothers and sisters in Anxi, you will give the little wolf to her as a younger brother, anyway, they are all surnamed Bai.

Pei Xingjian led the two chiefs of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and Ma Zai and Li Jingxuan came to Li Hong's mansion.

Li Hong did not choose the mansion arranged by Pei Xingjian at the beginning, but chose this three-entry courtyard that is not large, a decent one, and the same medium scale, and the front and rear courtyards have always been arranged by the pro-guards, only this middle courtyard, counting him and the six people of Xia Zhi, and the seven of them live, for Li Hong, it is enough.

And there are not many guards, except for his personal guards of 200 people, the rest are the Tiefutu who is responsible for the defense of the city and guards in turn.

Ma Zai and Li Jingxuan came for the first time, naturally the two of them were not in Qiuci during this time, and after returning to Qiuci today, they were hurriedly pulled over by Pei Xingjian to meet the new Dadu Protector.

The two knew that Anxi had a new Dadu Protector, and as soon as they took office, they immediately put down Shule's rebellion, and at the same time dealt a powerful blow to the Ashina Du branch and other departments.

But as for the identity of this Dadu Protector, it has always been a suspicion in their hearts, because until now, Pei Xingjian has not told them what kind of person this Dadu Protector is.

"The last generals Pei Xingjian, Ma Zai, and Li Jingxuan have seen Dadu Hu." The voices of three people rang out at the door.

"Let them in." Li Hong snatched the bones in the little wolf's hands, and made Bai Qi whine.

After sitting down, after the greetings were completed, Ma Zai and Li Jingxuan were even more surprised, this court is too nonsense now, so casually sent a young man to be the capital protector of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate.

"The chief of the Anxi Protectorate has been running to Khotan for a while now, and he will talk about the recent situation in Khotan." Li Hong looked at the confusion in the eyes of the two for a long time, and did not explain.

Ma Zai and Li Jingxuan, who are now officials from the fourth grade, looked at this young man's relaxed appearance, muttered and glanced at Pei Xingjian, and finally Ma Zai stood up and answered.

"Back to Daduhu, now Khotan is relatively stable, but the twelve states where the Qiang people mainly live, now the people's hearts are a little chaotic, and the last general and others have been pacifying and other related matters before they come back. Recently, it is said that some generals of the army in Tibet have died mysteriously, which has also made the pressure on Khotan and other places relatively relaxed, but the last general believes that when the cause of death of the army generals in Tibet is ascertained, they will still covet the twelve prefectures where the Qiang people live. Ma Zai stood up and said solemnly.

"Normally, after Tubo invaded Tuyuhun, it began to set its sights on the twelve states of Qiang, but if Khotan is stable, Tubo will not act rashly. Thank you very much. Li Hong motioned for them to drink tea.

Vegetables are scarce here, and in winter, they are all transported from Kannai. And because of eating meat all year round, if you want to dissolve the oiliness in your stomach, Pu'er tea is the best drink, which is why Datang's tea has always been popular.

Although they don't know the scientific basis for it, the benefits of Pu-erh tea for them are obvious.

Pei Xingjian took out an invitation card and handed it to Li Hong, on which Zeluo invited the Dadu Hu of the Anxi Metropolitan Protector Mansion and others to go to his mansion for a banquet tomorrow.

Li Hong looked up at the ceiling, and after thinking for a while, he motioned to Xia Zhi to hand his token to Ma Zai and Li Jingxuan, in his memory, these two people can be regarded as virtuous and famous generals.

The two looked at the token handed over by Xia Zhi, and after carefully observing it, the expression on their faces was even more shocked: "His Royal Highness the Prince!?" ”

They did not expect that in the current chaotic period of Anxi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would come to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate in person and sit here to face the turbulent situation in Anxi with them.

Pei Xingjian looked at the two of them with a smile and said: "Now I know why I have been refusing to disclose it, the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the top priority of Anxi, naturally it is not possible to disclose the identity of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to others at will, and now His Royal Highness has informed you two is also a loyal recognition of the two of you, but remember that this matter is only known to a few of us." ”

"That is, what General Pei said is reasonable, the last general and others will never tell others easily." Li Jingxuan looked at Li Hong and said hurriedly.

Ma Zai is the same as him, his eyes are excited and worried at the moment, and he is excited that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not concealed his identity from himself and others, and he is worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, will he hinder the various strategies of the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses in Anxi, after all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a newcomer who has never led troops to fight.

Seeing that the sky outside was dark, Li Hong got up and beckoned, and said, "You haven't eaten today, it's just right, I bought a sheep in Qiuzi today, and I ate mutton skewers today, let's just talk while eating." ”

"Lamb skewers?" The three of them asked suspiciously at the same time.

"It's a pity that there are no more spicy condiments, otherwise it will be more delicious, but it doesn't matter, it won't be difficult to eat." Li Hong looked at the virtue of the three of them with questioning faces, and said angrily: "Pei Xingjian, don't you believe it again?" ”

Pei Xingjian was taken aback, the consternation on his face immediately turned into a smile, and he hurriedly said: "How can it, your craftsmanship is clear to the general and others, you said it was delicious, it must be unpalatable." ”

Just kidding, since he didn't catch the messy stew for the first time, Pei Xingjian has completely believed it, and now even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince says that the loess outside is delicious, he will not hesitate to believe it.

"That's okay, Hua Meng and Mangzhong should be almost tinkering, several hours have passed, it should be okay. Bai Qi, come here, go with the master. In the end, Li Hong looked at the bones bigger than the white body in his mouth, and ran happily after him obediently.

As for Ma Zai and Li Jingxuan, after knowing Li Hong's identity, there was a worry in their eyes, Pei Xingjian naturally saw it in his eyes, and on the way to the small garden behind the mansion, he informed the two of them 1510.

After some explanation, it seemed that a thunderbolt was put in the hearts of the two people, and the two people who were shocked were stunned on the spot and at a loss.

This is incredible, with 20,000 horses, he was able to flee on the grassland with Ashina Duzhi, known as the steppe wolf, and Li Sha crawled away, and shrank into the depths of the grassland and did not dare to show his head.

Hua Meng and Mangzhong, with a few members of Li Hong's personal guard, had already put on the skewers at this time, and the charcoal had already been lit, so they were waiting to put the meat on it and roast it.

Pei Xingjian looked at the simple operation and muttered, "This way of eating is very common here." ”

"What you say is nonsense, who told you that it's rare, roasted whole sheep is not the same as this, the meat is more tender in this way, and it is all cooked, although the roasted whole sheep is also good, but it is not as good as this, you will know it after a while." Li Hongyi sat on the chair placed on the summer solstice.

The little wolf smelled the smell of blood nearby, and watched Mangzhong throw a bloodshot bone, and immediately the wolf howled, and pounced excitedly, and excitedly began to fall on the ground with the leg of mutton.
