Chapter 523: Return and Layout
With this night's experience, things have become lackluster after that, and the eldest grandson Chong who is a little interested in setting a horse or something. Ad-free site.
He is different from Li Chongyi and Cheng Chumo, who are genuine martial arts children, he can't play such a high-end thing when he loses weight, and he was almost calculated that night, which makes Changsun Chong a little depressed.
Zhenzhu Yi Nan never showed up again, it seemed that there were really his people in the meeting that night, so this old guy was very dissatisfied with the transactions between Changsun Chong and the others with other clans, and it was reasonable to avoid it.
Five days later, the group returned to Xue Yantuo's tooth tent at the foot of Yudu Golden Mountain from the racecourse, and after a dull banquet, Changsun Chong and others embarked on the way home.
A business negotiation that lasted four months, not to mention what kind of impact it would have on the economy of Datang and Xue Yantuo, just in the hearts of the gentlemen, this was a baptism.
They had seen the impoverished herdsmen of the steppes, challenging the wolves with rudimentary weapons for a lamb; I have also seen the nobles of the steppe make wine cups out of the heads of shepherds, only for their own pleasure; But what they see is more of a deception for the sake of profit.
In Chang'an, they can rely on the rights of their fathers to run rampant in the city, and in the grassland, they can still do it, but they can feel the difference.
The grassland people are afraid of the Tang Dynasty and also hate the Tang Dynasty, and the backwardness, poverty, and barbarism of the grassland are in stark contrast to the prosperity and wealth of the Tang Dynasty.
These can be felt by the gentlemen, which makes them proud and vigilant at the same time.
Changsun Chong can now understand why Li Chengqian must let him come to the grassland.
On the grassland, he saw undisguised desires, ...... for power and money, which could not be seen in Datang.
In the Tang Dynasty, everything is covered up by the 'civilization' on the surface, humble and gentlemanly during the day, polite, intrigued and competitive in the dark, what is the difference between this and the grassland?
"Chongzi, don't we want those people to disperse?" When approaching the border of the Tang Dynasty, Cheng Chumo rushed up from behind and pulled the confused eldest grandson Chong back from the 'fugue'.
"Leave them alone, it's their choice." The eldest grandson rushed back and glanced in the direction he came, and said lightly.
"It's a lot of work to talk to you sours." Cheng Chumo complained with some emotion and then asked, "What have you all learned?" ”
"Does a barbecue count? The level of Lao Tzu's barbecue has grown a lot. Li Chongyi said with a smile.
"You've all learned badly, a bunch of, and no truth." Cheng Chu pursed his lips silently, bent down on the horse and picked up a handful of weeds, picked a relatively neat one in his mouth, and ignored everyone.
This thing is relatively simple, whoever doesn't beat it honestly, that's what he does, so he can learn according to it, this is called a tutor.
"What do you want to hear? They want to fight for fame with their lives, can you stop it? Tang Shanzhi said on the side.
Cheng Chu sighed silently and took over Tang Shanzhi's words: "Mao's fame, isn't it just a map?" What's the big deal, the old men didn't use any elaborate maps in the first place, and they didn't build such a large territory? ”
"Okay, you go back to Gao Ming and say this, see if he can get your chicken feathers and duck blood!" Li Chongyi interjected with a wicked smile on his face.
Cheng Chumo shuddered, thinking of Li Chengqian's bad stomach, and immediately said: "Get out of the calf, Lao Tzu just feels that it has nothing to do with Gao Ming, if any of you dare to say it after you go back, brother will have nothing to do." ”
"You set up a table in the welcome building, and this matter should be revealed, how about it?" Eldest Sun Chong had already recovered at this time and joined the ranks of ridicule.
Cheng Chumo pulled out the hob meat frame, and shook his head: "If you want money, you want to die, you say go, Lao Tzu will fight with you." ”
"Hahaha......" In the laughter, the gentlemen unconsciously accelerated their speed. Dingxiang City is already in sight, that is the direction of home, after more than four months, finally back.
The picture turns back to Chang'an, in the welcome building that everyone has never forgotten, Li Chengqian and a middle-aged man sit opposite each other, and there are two night ghosts and white bats standing behind them.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Xuanli is back." The middle-aged man sat down in his seat and bowed to say hello.
Li Chengqian smiled lightly and motioned to the middle-aged man not to be polite, and asked casually: "Are you still used to it in the Wa Kingdom?" ”
"I'm a little uncomfortable, but I feel more comfortable in Datang." The middle-aged man said frankly, not at all like a Japanese from a country.
Li Chengqian nodded quietly: "Then don't go back, stay here, the palace will arrange for your children to go to the Wa Kingdom." ”
"What, what?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment.
"Don't you want to see your children?" Li Chengqian raised his chin behind the middle-aged man.
With confusion, apprehension and incomprehension, the middle-aged man slowly turned around and looked behind him.
The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, but I obviously don't know them, why ......?
After a while, the middle-aged man turned around and looked at Li Chengqian: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister...... Yes, sir! ”
This middle-aged man is Gao Xiang Xuanli, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty sent by the Wa State, representing Emperor Shu Ming.
Gao Xiang Xuanli, as the Sui envoy on behalf of the Shangdai, followed Inugami Mita to return to the Wa Kingdom, because he was familiar with the situation of the Tang Dynasty, he was recommended to Emperor Shu Ming, and because of his meritorious advice several times, he had become Shu Ming's confidant within a few years.
It's just that Shu Ming didn't know that this kid was actually a nail sent to him by Li Chengqian, all just to send another group of people to the Japanese country.
Gao Xiangxuanli, who had a spy experience, was also a smart person, and when he saw the two behind him, combined with Li Chengqian's words just now, he quickly thought of a possibility, which was to say the word 'obey orders'.
Li Chengqian beckoned to Yang Tian and Xiangxin, who came in, and asked them to come in and sit down, and then said to Gao Xiangxuanli: "During this time, you take them with you, train them well, and when they go to the Japanese Kingdom, you can go back and reunite with your family." Of course, if you want to work in the intelligence department, you can also do it, Datang is very short of professional intelligence officers like you! ”
"Is it really possible?" Gao Xiang Xuanli was a little excited.
This is not because he particularly wants to join the intelligence department, but because he is afraid that he will be killed after leaving Li Chengqian's circle.
Li Chengqian shook his head with a smile, and roughly guessed what Gao Xiangxuanli was thinking, so he comforted him: "Since this palace has said it, you don't have to doubt it, and this palace has always said that you don't need to be suspicious, and you don't have to be suspicious, so you don't have to worry about killing people and killing people, everything is only voluntary." ”
