Chapter 141 Identify difficulties at the beginning

The quiet courtyard was quiet. Li Yu looked directly at Prince Yan's eyes. After a long time, he gently opened his lips and said slowly : "No strong support can be achieved without any force outside. There is a Xiling Temple hidden behind Longqing without any release. If Brother Chongming, you are willing, I believe that my father will never mind sending a letter of fame to your father."

Only the Tang Empire in this world is capable of competing with the Xiling Temple. However, hearing this, Prince Yan was not moved, nor showed ecstasy. Instead, he fell into a long silence.

"Although I don't understand why the Xiling Temple agreed to Prince Longqing's entry into Chang'an City to take over you, I don't want to consider what the purpose of Prince Longqing's intention is to enter the second floor of the academy. I only know that the current situation is extremely beneficial to you. He is difficult to control his capital in Chang'an, isn't it your chance? "

Li Yu looked at Prince Yan's slightly drooping eyelashes and said calmly: "The Xiling Temple is indeed a wonderful and holy place. The great figure of the Judgment Department is indeed amazing. If you regard such a person as a proton, perhaps many people in Jinli, Henan are laughing at me. The Tang Dynasty acted absurdly, but these people didn't know that there was only one place in the world, and they had enough ability to take the No. 2 person in the Judgment Department as a hostage, and that place was the academy."

Prince Yan finally broke the silence, looked up at Li Yu's eyes with a serious expression, and said, "The problem is that as far as I know, even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has extremely limited influence on the academy. If the dean does not want to limit Longqing's humanity Freedom instead makes Longqing more profitable on the second floor. How should I deal with it?"

Li Yu frowned slightly and replied softly, "Academy is in Chang'an City after all, so you don't have to worry too much."

"This has nothing to do with worrying about it." Prince Yan replied calmly: "I know better than anyone else how proud Longqing is. People like him are willing to give up their pride and agree to accept the assessment before they can enter the second floor of the academy. , that means that the academy is a very important place for him. What Longqing is best at is turning all the people or things he thinks seem important into his help. "

"Are you worried that if Longqing enters the second floor of the academy, the people in the academy will support him?" Li Yu shook his head firmly and said calmly: "The academy never interferes in internal affairs of the empire, let alone the dispute over the throne of the foreign countries. ."

Yan Zitai shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Anyway, I always feel that letting him enter the second floor of the academy is not a good thing."

"If it was a pure bad thing for Longqing and Xiling, they would not agree to their father's request a few months ago." Li Yu was thinking, and suddenly frowned and said to himself, "If he can't get in two, he will not be able to enter two days." Floors…"

"I heard that there was a talented man from Southern Jin in the academy..." Prince Yan murmured.

The two looked at each other for a moment, shook their heads almost at the same time. The second floor of the academy opened this time, and it was clear that it was only one person. In fact, it was because of this handover hidden behind the scenes. That position was originally prepared for the Prince Longqing, and with that person's ability, even if they can arrange some competition. It is not enough to shake the other party.

At this moment, a sound of unconfused footsteps sounded on the wooden corridor outside the quiet and deep house. Prince Yan looked at Li Yu with a consultation look. Li Yu replied with a smile: "Hua Shanyue and his comrades. "

As he finished speaking, Hua Shanyue, the commander of Gushan County, dressed in military uniform, and several officers beside him walked into the hall, first clasped his fists and bowed to Li Yu, and then met Prince Yan.

There was a maid and servant who had re-established the wine case . Several people from Huashanyue sat down on their orders, and the house was quiet.

Li Yu looked at Prince Yan calmly and said, "I am the commander Hua Duwei hurried back to Chang'an, thinking that it is better for both sides to meet before Brother Chongming, you will leave."

"At the end of the day, we will be stationed in Hebei Road for many years, and we may be transferred from Gushan County to Shanyin County after the New Year." Hua Shanyue added.

Shanyin County is southeast of Minshan Mountain and is close to Yan territory. Although the soldiers stationed in the Tang Empire in this county are not as terrifying as the border troops led by General Xiahou further north, they are located within the Tang Dynasty. The nearest armed forces.

In the early years, Prince Yan met Hua Shanyue and knew that he was a fanatical admirer of the fourth princess Li Yu, and was also the key training target of the younger generation of the Tang Dynasty military. He naturally thought that Li Yu rushed to summon this person back to Beijing from thousands of miles away. It's not to see you off, but to hide a deeper meaning.

When Prince Yan heard Hua Shanyue admit that he would be transferred to Shanyin County next year, he instantly understood what Li Yu meant. He looked at the wine bottle on the desk and was thinking for a long time. Although there was no expression on his face, his inner struggle and conflict had reached its peak. After a long time, he said in a slight silence: "If something happens, it's a long time later. If I don't develop to the last step, I will never use your chess game."

Li Yu replied calmly: "If you can do not have to go to the last step, then you will naturally be happy. But if you really go to the last step, I hope that Brother Chongming, you will have the courage to regret it when you make a move. I want you to understand. Not only to consider the interests of my Tang Dynasty, I also hope that you can get something that belongs to you."

The so-called farewell is just the final endorsement of certain transactions and commitments. Although there must be a friendship that has been known for ten years, after all, the matter involves the family and country. Once the surface warmth is torn off, it will be difficult to reply to the original banquet. Yuxiaoran looked calm, and the scene seemed a little awkward for a moment.

Hua Shanyue remembered what he saw outside the house and said with a smile: "The terrace by the Deshengju Lake has been wrapped up today. It is very noisy, but it is much more lively than ours."

"Oh?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked curiously: "Who is such a big deal?"

When she said this, she didn't realize that she had bought all the quietest and most expensive back houses of Deshengju. It was a real big deal. After all, she was the most respected princess in the Tang Dynasty. Who can compare with her? ?

"I am a student of the academy today. Situ Yilan and Wucai are among them. When I met her, she said she would come to toast later. I thought that today Your Highness will make a special trip to Prince Chongming. I don't know if it's convenient, so I didn't respond. Down."

"The students of the academy are the pillars of my Tang Dynasty or the whole world. What's the point of meeting them in this palace?" Princess Li Yu, known for her virtuous and cherishing talents, naturally would not miss such an opportunity to win over the hearts of young talents. He looked at Prince Yan with a smile and said, "I believe Brother Chongming also wants to meet the new students in the academy, right?"

"That's natural." Prince Yan nodded calmly.

The students of the academy who were drinking and having fun on the terrace by the lake did not completely forget Hua Shanyue's previous reprimand, but he was a military commander and a senior of the academy. In addition, those words were sharp and ruthless but every word was put into practice. , there was nowhere to argue, so they could only endure it and comfort themselves in the name of their fellow brothers.

When the nobles from the back of Deshengju were summoned, the students realized that their so-called pride was indeed not suitable for attacking in Chang'an City. This magical city may be drunk if you swear in the side alley. The little duke, if you brag in the tea shop, you may meet a prince from Yuelun Kingdom . He just wanted to gather with him on the ground, but he actually met His Royal Highness the Princess of the Tang Dynasty. The prince ...

Deshengju covers a very wide area. That back house is the ancestral property left by an old censor during the Kanfeng period. It is no problem to accommodate two or three hundred people, but after all, it was called by His Royal Highness the Princess, so how could all the students in the academy be allowed to be What is the reason for queuing up to pay tribute and turning Qingyou Guiyuan into a vegetable market? It's just to choose some students with good grades and good reputations as representatives. Among them are the six art subjects led by Xie Chengyun, people with talent and reputation outside, as well as Chang'an such as Situ Yilan and Chu Zhongtian. The powerful children, and someone.

When the students of the academy entered the Qingyou House, Li Yu was talking to Prince Yan in a low voice. Suddenly, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes subconsciously looked over. Sure enough, she saw the familiar and hateful face at the end of the crowd.

For more than half a year, she often called Sangsang to the princess's house to talk to her, but she had never seen Ning Que again. However, through various channels, Ning Que's actions in the academy continued to enter her ears. .

She knew about the bet for the period exam and knew that he was later excluded by his classmates in the academy, but she never spoke. It was just a journey to meet someone on the road. How could the experience of a mere college student attract her attention? Even if she wants, she cannot reveal it in many cases.

"I've seen His Highness the Princess."

"I've met Prince Chongming."

Xie Chengyun, Zhong Dajun and Wang Ying, Linchuan, stood in front of the quiet corridor of the house and greeted the two nobles on the table in turn. After several replies, the students performed well, especially Xie Chengyun and Wang Ying, who spoke quite well. Li Yu felt more satisfied with the purity of the purity of the Qing Dynasty, but it was a pity that Mr. Xie was from the Southern Jin Dynasty rather than from the Tang Dynasty.

"Brother Chongming, what do you think of my young talent in the Tang Dynasty?" Li Yu asked with a smile at Prince Yan.

Prince Yan smiled and replied, "The Tang Dynasty is in the world, and the academy is a sacred place for all ages, so it is naturally extraordinary."

At this moment, a noisy sound suddenly sounded outside the Qingyou backyard of Deshengju, with blocking and scolding sounds, as if someone was rushing straight towards this side. Li Yu looked at the passage hidden behind the bamboo outside the corridor, holding a small wine glass between his fingers and not saying anything, but his eyebrows slightly frowned. Hua Shanyue, who was sitting on the mat two feet behind her, had a solemn expression and shouted loudly. : "Who is so bold that he dares to break into the place where His Highness feasts!"

The noise outside the courtyard turned extremely quickly into a sound that was still messy but represented a completely different meaning. The sound of silk and bamboo sounds in the bamboo forest behind the corridor suddenly became a messy tune, faintly mixing with the girl's surprise shout, and the report man rang over the banquet when he was shocked and passed the message. The sounds of the sounds, and then all of them disappeared in the next moment.

In the quiet courtyard, under the rain corridor and beside the bamboo wall, there was no sound, and it became quiet, quiet and heart-pounding, except for the sound of footsteps that fell between the stone paths and seemed to fall on people's hearts.

The footsteps that were slowly moving outside the courtyard did not belong to only one person, and were not neat, but the ears of the people in the courtyard seemed to hear only one of them. The footsteps were extremely stable and could be released only from the auditory sense. It showed a strong smell of pride, as if he was stepping on the heaven leading to the sky every step.

...

...

Boss Deshengju, who looked painful and helpless, walked forward like a pitiful servant. Although he led outsiders to the Fourth Princess' banquet venue, it was undoubtedly the fastest way to die , but this At that time, the guests behind him were also very famous, and more importantly, the reasons given by the other party could not be refuted at all.

Walking on the stone path was Zeng Jing, a great minister of Wenyuan Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty. This senior official in the court who was trusted by His Majesty and the Queen, had a faint smile on his face and could not tell the true emotions.

On the right hand of Grand Secretary Zeng Jing, there was a middle-aged man wearing a black Taoist robe and a Haotian Divine Sword around his waist . He was the deputy director of the Tianyu Academy of the Xiling Temple. He visited the capital Chang'an .

The Tang Empire is well known to everyone. Although the relationship between the Empress and the Fourth Princess is not incompatible, it is naturally in the hostile camp because of the succession of the throne in a certain year in the future. Now the Chief Minister under the Empress is about to break into His Royal Highness. At the banquet, there was also a big man from the Xiling Kingdom of God. Who would like to get himself caught between such terrifying turbulence? What's more, among the crowd who came to the banquet , there was the one...

Grand Secretary Zeng Jing and Priest Mo Li came hand in hand. According to principles, they were destined to attract the attention of everyone in the courtyard. However, in fact, everyone's eyes fell on the young man behind the two of them at this time.

There is a kind of person in the world who naturally has a certain charm, even if he is a stubborn boy covered in mud among the thousands of people, even if he is an ordinary girl among the devout believers in the dark , no matter how low-key and silent he walks in the crowd No matter how many glorious people around him are, as long as he is in that picture, you will definitely see him first when you look at him, and then you will never be able to move your eyes away.

That young man in the crowd is such a person. He was about twenty years old, wearing the lifeless Taoist robe of the Judgment of the Xiling Temple, wearing an ordinary sword around his waist, and his footsteps were smooth and stable. He followed Grand Secretary Zeng Jing and Priest Mo Li in silence. The courtyard instantly snatched all eyes.

His handsome eyebrows and eyes were as impeccable as the legendary ones, reflecting the faint sky light leaking from the treetops, shaking away the lingering willow catkins. Prince Longqing appeared in people's sight, like a son of god.

There was no negative emotion on his face, and he was calm, but like the sound of footsteps with clear rhythm , everyone in the field felt his pride, the proudness hidden deep in his body, which was so proud that he was disdainful to show. pride.

In a brief silence, the people in the empty and quiet courtyard subconsciously stood up to greet each other. The students in the academy instantly guessed the identity of this person, with a faint confusion on their faces, a little uneasy in their eyes, and their emotions seemed extremely complicated.

Li Yu, who was sitting on the top mat, lowered his eyes slightly, and the surprise and cold vigilance in his eyes flashed in a flash. Prince Yan, who was sitting opposite her, had a more complicated look, and a little sad. Then he slowly stood up with his face. He showed a gentle smile on his face and said, "Longqing... It's really gone for many years."

At this time, she had been sitting in the remotest corner of the courtyard, constantly complaining that Ning Que, who was really not in line with human mechanics, finally noticed these uninvited guests, opened her mouth and looked at the outstanding Prince Longqing in the crowd, and exclaimed. He said, "This is really a thunderclap, and the male pig horn finally made a bright appearance."
