From north to south from Tongji Canal all the way south, the scenery on both sides of the river bank changed from the original dry yellow to the green in front of him, walked down from the boat, and stepped on the solid ground again, so that Bai Chun had a sense of security as if returning to the world.

She had never been on a ship for such a long time, and it was fortunate that she was not seasick, but it was only because of the long time and the short time for each replenishment that she had been in a wobbly phase.

At this moment, just after taking two steps, I felt that my legs seemed to be a little involuntarily, and I always felt that I was swaying when I walked, and before I could react, a big hand was already on her waist: "Let you practice more when you are in Luoshui, you just don't listen, do you think it's fun to take a boat?" ”

"Why don't you swing?" Bai Chun didn't care about looking at the other ships at the Yangzhou wharf, and what he could see in front of him was that except for the officials who were entourage, as for the people, and even the labor and goods on the wharf where the ships came and went, they couldn't see it.

"I'm of good character." The corners of Li Hong's mouth wiped out the iconic evil smile, which naturally attracted Bai Chun's white eyes.

Li Jingye, Du Qiuren, Li Zongchen and others, this is the first time they have seen Bai Chun, looking at the beautiful fairy-like, white and delicate cheeks, they can't help but secretly marvel in their hearts, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really a blessing, there is such a fairy in the world to accompany him.

And then it was like realizing something! Dressed in white, with hair hanging down behind him like a waterfall, he has a stunning appearance in the world, loyal to His Royal Highness the Prince, and most importantly, he has accompanied His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for many years, and has always been a slave, only the woman named Bai Chun.

Bai Chun didn't know that he was already famous now, because he had followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for many years, and he was about to become half of His Royal Highness the Prince's doppelganger.

The luxurious carriage was parked a hundred paces away from the Wuya battleship, and Li Hong helped Bai Chun to nod at Li Jingye, and then got into the carriage.

"Your Highness...... Your pro-guard ....... Li Jingye didn't expect Li Hong to be so hearty, he got into the carriage directly, and gave himself full authority for everything behind him.

"When you come to your territory, it's naturally up to you." Li Hong glanced at the distance like a city wall stretching over green hills, and thought that it was the legendary Yangzhou City.

Li Jingye's expression was stunned for a moment, and then he was fleeting, and said with a request: "In this case, Your Highness, the minister will take it upon himself to settle your personal guards and others." ”

Li Hong didn't speak anymore, and got into the luxurious carriage prepared by Li Jingye, as for the person who drove the car, it was naturally framed by Mangzhong and Cheetah, and the person who escorted the carriage was lawless.

As for the pro-guards, it was naturally led by Wei Tuqi, but how Li Jingye would be placed, he didn't want to worry about it at all.

Bai Chun looked at the carriage and listened to the two of them, and after Li Jingye left, he said weakly: "Your Highness, is this inappropriate?" After all, there are only so many of us, if ....... ”

"Don't worry, Li Jingye is not a fool, he insists on keeping me in Yangzhou for a day, and I "coincidentally" need supplies, no one is a fool, but they are all pretending to be confused, this is just a preliminary temptation, give him a hundred guts and he will not dare to mess around now. Li Hong smiled and touched Bai Chun Ruyu's forehead, but he had taken too many boats, so he was a little weak, but it wasn't a big deal.

The curtains on both sides of the carriage were lifted by Li Hong, this is also his life to Yangzhou, for today's Yangzhou, more rely on his memory, as for what it is, I have never seen it with my own eyes, or I dare not make a conclusion.

Moreover, the Tang poems he knew about Yangzhou also made him feel that the credibility was not high, after all, the poet's talent was the same as his words and sentences, and most of them liked to be sublimated to an extreme height.

There are two wharves in Yangzhou City, one wharf is outside the city, which is naturally a large ship such as the Wuya warship, and the other is the river on the side of the road today, a small canopy boat-like boat, which is responsible for transporting goods from the waterway to the city.

Compared with the rivers in Chang'an and Luoyang, the waterways in Yangzhou are naturally much more developed, and the ships here are more like horse-drawn carriages in the north, carrying a large number of materials in a city.

Under the escort of Yangzhou officials, Li Hong's carriage slowly passed through the bluestone city gate into the city of Yangzhou, and unlike imagined, the bluestone slab road was not as many as recorded in the history books.

In addition to a few main roads, other small streets and alleys are still rammed by loess, but in the midst of people coming and going, the noisy shouting and noise of selling and clamor are proclaiming the prosperity and wealth of this city of nearly 400,000 people.

The houses on both sides of the street are also mainly built on one floor, blue bricks and loess, and the buildings on a street surface and two floors above are naturally clear and countable, and a two-storey or even three-story building can be seen at a distance.

When walking on the riverside, the painting boat is like weaving, the figure of the warbler Yanyan shuttles on the painting boat on the river, and the laughter like silver bells, the sound of the piano and the song are clearly transmitted to the road on the shore, which is obviously a means to attract customers.

From time to time, you can see the windows of the flowing painting boats, women holding silk handkerchiefs and letting them flutter in the wind, revealing half of their faces, or joy, or contemplation, or sadness, or gloom, etc., wine cups, tea cups are placed on the table in front of them, incense burners curl up with clear smoke, dancing with the wind, faintly disappearing, everything is to create a comfortable environment for rich customers.

Musical instruments such as pipa, harp, zheng, etc., are either touched and wiped by slender jade hands, or borrowed from the piano to think about people, or quietly put aside, quietly waiting with the owner for the arrival of literati and scholars and elegant men when the lanterns are on.

Li Jingye originally wanted to take His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a banquet, that is, to charter a painting boat, and then shuttle freely through Yangzhou City, but just now the prince passed the word that there are too many boats these days, so he doesn't want to go to the river anymore.

Li Jingye looked at the person who passed the message, and had no choice but to salute respectfully and replied yes, thanks to Du Qiuren's preparation, so he had to change the route halfway and go to the famous Manjiang Garden in Yangzhou.

Manjiang Garden is like the style of Suzhou gardens in later generations, but now in Li Hong's eyes, it is full of poetic and small jasper-like mood.

The vermilion windows, snow-white walls, blue brick houses, and dark black doors all reveal an idyllic scenery that follows the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

"Your Highness, I don't know if you are satisfied, Manjiang Garden, as a place of celebrities and literati in Yangzhou today, is Liandanyang...... Oh, all the merry inkmen of Jinling are here. Li Jingye walked with Li Hong on the winding path, the green woods, and the moist air made everything fully contaminated with the atmosphere of poetry.

"It's not bad, the first time I came to Yangzhou, I didn't expect Yangzhou to be such a quiet and elegant place, it's rare." Li Hong looked at Manjiangyuan appreciatively and nodded frequently.

"If His Royal Highness doesn't dislike it, the minister is very willing to give this garden to His Highness, I don't know if His Highness is willing to give the minister ......."

"Send me?" Li Hong turned his head to look at Li Jingye in some surprise, was it a blatant provocation?

"Yes, I don't know what His Highness thinks?" Li Jingye looked at Li Hong's eyes and said with a smile.

"Under the whole world, is it not the king's land, is it the shore of the land, is it not the king's ministers, I don't know where the British duke got the courage to give me the things of my Li family? Or do you think this Yangzhou city belongs to you? Li Hong didn't let his eyes go, stared at Li Jingye's eyes tightly, and said coldly.

"Your Highness laughed, how dare the minister have this intention, the minister just thinks that if His Highness likes it, in the future, he will not let anyone enter this Manjiang Garden, except for Your Highness, even the minister can't step into it." Li Jingye was still stunned for a moment, and then said again.

And behind the two of them, with the entourage of Bai Chun, Lawless, Du Qiuren and others, they were already twenty steps behind the two of them at this moment.

Mang Chong and Jing Zhen have been following behind Li Hong, not leaving an inch, as the personal eunuch of His Royal Highness the Prince of the Tang Dynasty, this has always been their duty.

"That being said, filial piety is sincere enough, but when Lone leaves, how will Lone know that there is no one coming in here, or will Lone send someone to supervise it, just change the supervision of the imperial history here? Now, many courtiers make Gu Du can't believe it, such as Pei Yan, Gu thinks that he is already loyal to the Li family, and even regarded as a model for courtiers by his father, but in the end? But don't you want to oppose my Li family and sit on your own? Li Hong said with his hands behind his back relaxedly.

Li Jingye avoided Li Hong's eyes, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "Your Highness, the minister only heard about this after the Yuan Ri, but...... According to what the minister heard, there seem to be rumors in Chang'an now that he was framed by his colleagues ....... ”

"Really, not only have you heard about it, but I have also heard about it, I heard that he was confused, saying that you Li Jingye secretly colluded with him? But is there such a thing? Li Hong's tall figure stood in front of Li Jingye, looked down at Li Jingye's eyes and asked.

Feeling an invisible pressure brought by his tall body, Li Jingye had to put away his contempt for Li Hong just now.

Originally, I thought that Li Hong, who came to Yangzhou for the first time, and brought two hundred guards tightly, it was impossible not to know how to restrain himself, right?

After all, he has just arrived in Yangzhou, and he hasn't figured anything out yet, so he won't make trouble at will, let alone face himself with a tough attitude.

But everything that happened in front of him was somewhat beyond his imagination, even if he only brought two hundred people, even in the face of his "slip of the tongue", His Royal Highness the Prince's attitude was still the same as usual, just like his style in Chang'an, there has never been the slightest change.

This reaction caught him a little off guard, and the purpose of wanting to use the "slip of the tongue" to give His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a dismissal was not achieved, but Li Hong detained Pei Yan's rebellion on himself.
