Time flies, Yu Lu has nothing to say, and about mid-October, Li Chengqian and his entourage finally arrived at Qingzhou Mansion in Shandong.

"The ministers have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Because Li Chengqian traveled lightly, there were not many people outside Qingzhou to greet him, only envoys from Qingzhou, Dengzhou, Cangzhou, Laizhou and other prefectures (which can be regarded as the current mayor).

"Excuse me." Li Chengqian took the little Lori in a Western-style princess dress, got off the carriage, and said.

"Wu Zhao has met all the uncles." A simple half-squat salute,Cute little Lori like a doll said sweetly。

"This is the righteous sister of this palace, the lord of Xinyang." Looking at the somewhat confused magistrate, Li Chengqian briefly introduced.

The title of the county lord of Xinyang in Wuzhao came down not long ago, and the original reason was that Li Chengqian's 'Monkey King' brought Lao Li a twist and turn (or a book is more appropriate).

In the compromise, he first made clear the identity of Wu Zhao, and then said that he was abducted, and then said that he got along well with him, and finally mentioned that she Lao Tzu and Lao Wu donated money and materials to the Tang Dynasty, and wrote thousands of words freely.

The old man's reply was very simple, not much, five words - do your business well, and then it was the edict to canonize Wu Zhao as the lord of Xinyang. When Li Chengqian got the reply, he even wondered if the old man had read his own recitals and why he didn't say a word about cracking down on human traffickers.

However, it is enough to have an edict, and the main purpose of Li Chengqian's purpose of writing a recital for the old man has been achieved. With this edict, the matter of Wu Zhao's entry into the palace in the future was finally blocked. I believe that Lao Li, who is very face-saving, should not marry his righteous daughter in the future, right?

Of course, the question of whether she will be married out in the future is something that Li Chengqian needs to consider in the future, and it will not be more difficult than preventing this girl from becoming the emperor.

There are many princesses and county lords in the Tang Dynasty, and the patriarchal thinking of the Tang Dynasty, which is extremely heavy on martial arts, is seriously heavy, so Wu Zhao's greeting is just in exchange for a sentence that is not salty or light: "I have seen His Royal Highness the county lord." ”

After the greetings, the group set off again, and the Qingzhou envoy had already set up a banquet in the Huichun Building in the city, waiting to catch Li Chengqian.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although this palace bears the imperial order and has the duties of the governor of Shandong, but after all, it is young and shallow, if there is anything wrong in the future, I hope to forgive you, so this first glass of wine, this palace respects you first." Upstairs in Rejuvenation Building, Li Chengqian relied on his identity, and without waiting for everyone to speak, he was the first to raise a glass and say.

"Your Highness is serious." "That's a big deal." After some politeness, a large group of envoys raised their glasses at the same time and drank in.

"This second cup." After everyone had drunk, Li Chengqian poured another glass of wine: "This palace respects you on behalf of the people of the Tang Dynasty, and thanks you for crying blood for the people of the Tang Dynasty and working hard day and night." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"This third cup." After two rounds, Li Chengqian raised his glass again, looked around at everyone and said with a light smile: "Chengqian likes to mess around on weekdays, and he is really not very good at political affairs. ”

Three glasses of wine basically set the tone for his trip to Shandong, so a banquet can be said to be a pleasure for the guests and the hosts.

"Brother Prince, why are you so polite to those officials?" On the way to the post house, Xiao Wuzhao asked with a pair of beautiful big eyes.

"Because we have to stay here for a long time, we can't just pull up countless enemies as soon as we arrive in Shandong, right?" Li Chengqian habitually pinched Wu Zhao's little nose.

"Then why did Brother Prince say that he was not good at political affairs, wasn't he telling them plainly, let's just go through the motions?" Although Wu Zhao is not very old, he has begun to show his strong political talent.

"How else to say it? After all, no one likes to have someone pointing fingers at their head, right? Like that, do you like someone to keep an eye on you all the time? Li Chengqian asked with a smile.

"Of course Zhao'er doesn't like it, but ......" Little Lori tried hard to express her meaning with suitable words, but in vain found that her meaning was too complicated to express at all.

"Do you remember what my brother told you about boiled frogs in warm water?" Li Chengqian looked at the little Lori, who was flushed and tried hard, and asked with a smile.

Regarding Wu Zhao's talent in politics, Li Chengqian was deeply touched during this time, and the comprehension of a little doll was no less than that of an adult like Wu Chen.

This made Li Chengqian, who had always taken Wu Zhao by his side, faintly have a trace of fear, a fear of the future, countless times in his sleep, he would dream that little Lori stepped on his corpse and sat on the high dragon chair.

Talent is a terrible thing that can create a deep sense of powerlessness.

Just like when we were in school, some children were playing every day and always sleeping in class, but they would be at the top of every exam, and no matter how hard we tried to go home, we couldn't catch up.

Li Chengqian could already understand what Lao Li felt when facing him, so he decided to learn from the old man.

Since you can't kill her, then take control of it, cultivate Wu Zhao according to your own will, put her by your side, and make her your right-hand man.

In this way, even if you really can't control it in the future, you can take precautions in advance.

"Of course Zhao'er remembers, Zhao'er remembers every story my brother said. But what does boiling frogs in warm water have to do with those officials? Wu Zhao's coquettish voice disrupted Li Chengqian's thoughts.

"Of course it matters, we say we're here to play, so they let their guard down, at least they don't just hug us right now and go against us." Li Chengqian said with some distraction and Wu Zhao.

I drank a little too much wine just now, and I felt a little dizzy, so Li Chengqian said to Wu Zhao again: "Brother is a little tired, is Zhao'er okay to accompany my brother for a while?" ”

"Okay, Brother Prince, lean here first, and go get water for Brother Prince." Little Lori nodded very obediently, ran to the side to get water, and muttered: "Those officials are really big villains, they let the prince's brother drink so much wine." ”

There is not much time, Xiao Wuzhao has already brought water, Li Chengqian took a sip and put it aside, patted Xiao Lori's head and said to her: "Zhao'er, you have to learn to look at things objectively, don't look at some things based on your own subjectivity, understand?" ”

After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that what he said was a little unclear, and Li Chengqian continued: "Actually, in my opinion, these officials are very good, they are indeed doing things for the people under their rule, and some of them will even use their own money to subsidize the people, and cut down on their own food and clothing. ”

"But their method is wrong, because what they learn is not suitable for governing the place, and the Confucian thing is engaged in research, and it is okay to talk about the big truth, and it is really used to govern the place, hehe......" Li Chengqian, who was surging with wine and dizziness, said halfway and fell asleep decisively.
