Chapter 51: The Crown Rite (I)

After Li Hao thanked him, the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly found that Li Hao had really grown a lot taller, and he was almost as tall as himself, and he looked like a young man, so he asked: "Virtuous nephew, I don't know if you have done the crown salute?" ”

Li Hao's heart moved, he felt that the eldest grandson Wuji would not ask this sentence for no reason, there must be some intention, so he replied cautiously: "The kid is not a clerical family, and he does not plan to perform a crown salute." ”

"Well, that's not what I said." The eldest grandson Wuji got up and walked in front of him and said, "You are now a county man personally appointed by His Majesty, and you have entered the ranks of nobles, how can you not do the crown ceremony, so let's pick a good day, and the old man will help you crown, how about it?" After speaking, he looked at Li Hao with deep meaning.

Li Hao understands his thoughts, he wants to win himself over in this way, the ancients attached great importance to the crown ceremony, and the crowned person is equivalent to a teacher to the crowned person.

The eldest grandson Wuji is the first powerful minister of the Tang Dynasty, even Fang Xuanling cannot be compared with him in terms of power and strategy, if he can be crowned, it is really a supreme glory, and it can be regarded as half a foot into the political circle of the Tang Dynasty, and he will be branded as the eldest grandson Wuji, and he will be regarded as the eldest grandson Wuji in the future.

However, Li Hao remembered the tips given to him by Zhiyuan Zhenren and warned that "the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it", and it is not a good thing to climb the big tree of the eldest grandson Wuji now, his foundation is shallow.

As soon as he thought of this, he said: "Maybe I want to disappoint Uncle Changsun, when the kid was in the army, he worshipped Li Daozong, the head of the march, as a teacher, and the head Li said with a smile at the time, if the kid performs the crown salute one day, he will definitely crown the kid himself, so ......"

The eldest grandson Wuji was slightly disappointed when he heard this, but he didn't show it, but smiled and waved his hand: "That's it, since you have an appointment with Li Daozong in advance, and the old man doesn't force it, if you do the crown salute, you must invite the old man to watch the ceremony." ”

"This must be." Li Hao bowed, "If Uncle has nothing else to do, the kid will retire first." ”

"Hmm." The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and asked the housekeeper to send off the guests.

Li Hao took a carriage around, and did not go home, but went to Li Daozong's house, no way, this time, in order to refuse the eldest grandson Wuji, he moved out of Li Daozong as a shield, and the eldest grandson Wuji said it to that part, and he didn't just say it or not do it, the crown ceremony really had to be held, so as not to be held by the eldest grandson Wuji.

Although Li Daozong disliked Li Hao, Li Hao had a life-saving grace for him and his daughter, and he couldn't refuse, so he promised to cooperate with him once, let him go home and choose the next day, and then inform him to go to the crown is, finalized the matter, and Li Hao went home.

In fact, the moment Li Hao just entered Li Daozong's house, someone immediately returned to Zhao Wangfu to report to Changsun Wuji, and Changsun Wuji's expression did not change much after hearing this, but he just nodded and said, "I know, go down." Then he got up and walked slowly to the outside of the hall, looked up at the sunset that was about to set, and sighed loudly: "This kid ...... What the hell do you think? ”

After Li Hao returned home, he asked Du Hong to bring the yellow calendar, and found a zodiac festival, June 12, there are only five days left from today, and the crown ceremony is scheduled to be held on that day.

The next thing is to make a list of guests, Li Hao doesn't know many people in Chang'an, Cheng Biting Jin must be invited, old acquaintances, the eldest grandson Wuji must also be invited, after all, the crown ceremony was proposed by him, Li Daozong is the crowning person, and he has to be invited, after excluding these three people, there is also a Li Jing, after all, he had met with Li Jing a few times when he went out with the army, and said a few words, Li Jing was the head of the march at the time, controlling the army, Li Hao was also a soldier under him, well, I also have to send him a post, think about it carefully, The whole Chang'an doesn't seem to have anyone to invite, so let's put our eyes on Lantian County, Li Hao sadly found that he only knew one Lantian County commander Chen Anzhi in Lantian County, and he met him a few times when he went to buy land, he lived on the boundary of Lantian County, out of politeness, he still had to send a post over, as for whether Chen Anzhi came or not, it was none of his business.

Holding the list of guests and finding that there were only a few people on it, Li Hao shook his head and sighed bitterly: "Alas, sad, I have been in Chang'an for two years, and I only know so many people, sad, blind sadness." ”

Hearing this, Du Hong interjected on the side and said: "Young master, it's not sad at all, on your list, except for the Lantian County Order, the rest are either princes or princes, but they are all the pillars of the Tang Dynasty, and not everyone can invite these people." ”

Hearing this, Li Hao's mood finally improved, and he smiled: "What you said is quite reasonable, but I don't know if Pharmacist Li will come, after all, I don't have much friendship with him." ”

Du Hong said: "Young master, you just send the post, don't let people hold the handle." ”

"That's what I thought too." Li Hao smiled and handed the post to Du Hong, "Oh, go and send the post." ”

"Yes!" As soon as Du Hong heard that he was going to visit the mansions of those princes and princes, he was so excited that he accepted the invitation with trembling hands, turned around and ran.

June 12 is an auspicious day of the zodiac, but Li Hao tore up the yellow calendar, and swore that he would never believe in the yellow calendar again in the future, because it was raining this day, and it had not rained in the entire Guanzhong for nearly two months.

Fortunately, it didn't rain much, but it had been pouring down since the morning, and it was still windy, which made people upset, and the lanterns hanging outside the courtyard gate were blown away.

Li Hao originally thought that it would be good to have one or two people come in such weather, but the result was greatly unexpected by Li Hao, everyone he invited came, including Li Jing, and what surprised him even more was that someone came uninvited, and that person was Li Ji.

He and Li Ji met once, and they met when they were in the Changting Pavilion outside Chang'an City when they went on the expedition, and the two sides never said a word, but Li Ji still came, and he came with Cheng Yanjin.

Li Hao personally greeted him at the door, and saluted when he met: "Li Hao greets Uncle Cheng, Uncle Li." ”

"Wow Ka Ka ......" Cheng Yanjin let out his signature demonic laugh, stretched out his hand and patted Li Hao on the shoulder, and said, "Good boy, I didn't expect you to salute in a blink of an eye, I still remember the way you wore open crotch pants when I first saw you......

Li Hao glared and exclaimed, "When did I wear open crotch pants?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin glared and said, "You didn't wear it when you were a child?" ”

Li Hao hurriedly said: "When I was a child, I naturally wore it, but when you saw me, I was already fourteen years old!" ”

Cheng Biting Jin waved his hand and grinned: "Don't care about these details!" ”

Li Hao's facial muscles twitched, when did this thing learn his lines.

At this time, Li Ji spoke: "Li Hao, the old man is uninvited, you won't be unwelcome." ”

Li Hao hurriedly saluted and said: "How dare the boy, Uncle Li came to the cold house, and the boy only felt that he was shining and shining, and he would welcome him at any time." ”

Li Ji smiled lightly and spread his hands: "Then don't you invite us in?" ”

"Please, two uncles, please come in." Li Hao hurriedly dodged and spread his hands, invited them in, and said to Du Hong at the same time, "Du Hong, serve tea, serve good tea!" ”

When Cheng Yanjin heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "This bastard boy, so slamming the door." ”

Li Ji next to him suddenly heard this, a little confused, and asked suspiciously: "Zhijie, where do you start with this?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin said with a smile: "I still listen to what my kid said, Li Hao, this kid is very picky, the general guest comes to the door, it is difficult to drink his tea, if it is an eye-catching guest, you can get a cup of tea, but it is generally tea foam or aged tea, if it is a distinguished guest to the door, he will let people serve good tea, that is really good tea, and it is new tea." ”

When Li Ji heard this, his expression became extremely exciting, and he secretly glanced at Li Hao, Li Hao didn't hear what they were talking about, and when he saw Li Ji looking at himself, he replied with a harmless smile.

After glancing at Li Hao, Li Ji smiled and said to Cheng Yanjin: "In this way, we are honored guests." ”

Cheng bit Jin raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course, he dares to give me a taste of Chen tea!" ”

Li Ji smiled and said: "You pulled me here this time, saying how good his tea is, I really want to taste it this time." ”

"Hey." Cheng Yanjin grinned, "His tea tastes a little bitter, but after drinking it a few more times, it feels very fragrant, everyone has different tastes, and their preferences are naturally different, I think this Li Hao is more interesting than his tea." ”

"Well, I think he's funny, too."

……

The two of them had already entered the living room while they were talking, Li Jing, Li Daozong and the eldest grandson Wuji had already arrived, and they were sitting in the position drinking tea, and there was another person Cheng Yanjin and Li Ji who didn't know each other, that was Chen Anzhi, the commander of Lantian County.

As soon as he saw the arrival of these two people, Chen Anzhi hurriedly put down the teacup, got up and bowed, and introduced himself, this is a good time to brush up on his sense of existence, how can he miss it, he feels that this time is the right time, he didn't expect that Li Hao invited all the bigwigs of the court, either the prince or the prince, all of them are boss-level, which can make him happy, he has secretly decided that in the future, he will provide Li Hao with his ancestors, and respond to requests, as long as he serves him well, are you still worried about your official career.

After Chen Anzhi's salute, Li Jing and the others also got up to greet each other, and then everyone sat down to drink tea together, enjoying themselves and painting style very harmoniously.
