This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 23
The eldest grandson finally left.

Li Chengqian led Li Lizhi in the ten-mile gazebo and watched the carriage drifting away quietly, after all, there was a little more sadness about parting.

And Li Lizhi, who was still full of curiosity about the new world just now, could not escape the ending of crying.

Taking a last look at the direction of Chang'an City, Li Chengqian waved his hand and said, "Clean up and set off."

Chang'an is not his Chang'an after all, no matter how prosperous and majestic it is, it is not his Chang'an.

This point has been very clear since he crossed over.

Because of the addition of Li Lizhi and a few more court ladies, the original three carriages were not enough.

There was no other way, so the wounded soldiers had to be wronged and squeezed into a carriage, one for four court ladies, one for Li Chengqian and Changle.

Soon, the personal soldiers packed up everything, and everyone set off again.

On the carriage, Li Lizhi lay on Li Chengqian's lap, sobbing softly, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, are we unable to go back? We will never see the Queen Mother and Emperor Father again?"

Born in the deep palace compound since she was a child, even though she is only in her teens, she knows a lot better than her peers.

"Silly girl, as long as you want to come back, no matter when and where, big brother will send you back." Li Chengqian patted her on the head and said with a smile.

Seeing this girl, Li Chengqian thought of his daughter in the previous life for no reason. She was also this old, but she was very naughty and eccentric all day long.

If he had the choice, he really didn't want to travel to this wretched place.

Even if he was asked to transmigrate directly to an emperor, he wouldn't do it!

But things have come to this, he can only do his best to survive.

Yes, everything he does now is just to survive.

To be honest, he would be restless every day he didn't leave Chang'an.

There's no way, he's not the real Li Chengqian, he just inherited Li Chengqian's memory and put on his body.

It is simply nonsense for a person from later generations to immediately integrate into the Tang Dynasty and become a qualified Tang Dynasty person, or even the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

God knows how he survived this period of time?

Don't dare to be sloppy when sitting, sitting, standing and standing. Before saying every word, you have to go through it in your heart first.

Such a day is really tormented...

Seeing that Li Lizhi was still crying, Li Chengqian patted her on the head and said, "How about elder brother telling you a story?"

Li Lizhi didn't speak, but just nodded.

Her mind is in a mess right now, she has expectations for the novelty things Li Chengqian said, and she also has reluctance for her father, queen and queen.

Of course Li Chengqian knew, but it was not difficult for him to coax a child, so he immediately said: "Once upon a time, there was a princess who was as good-looking as our little Changle..."

After talking for more than half an hour, Li Lizhi fell asleep after listening to it, while Li Chengqian patted her on the back lightly, and covered her with the blanket prepared earlier.

This gave him the feeling of coaxing his daughter to sleep back then, perhaps because he needed someone to carry his feelings, otherwise this strange and cold world to him would be too boring.

After setting up Li Lizhi, he was thinking about changing to a carriage.

Although his carriage was regarded as a top match in Datang's eyes, the bumps along the way almost knocked his waist apart.

"Zhao Yan." Slightly opened the curtain of the carriage, Li Chengqian saw Zhao Yan who was riding outside and said, "Take two people and hurry to Jingyang County. We will settle down in Jingyang tonight. You go to find it first." Where to stand."

Zhao Yan was the one who accompanied Li Chengqian to visit Chang'an with Liu San, and he was also the first group of wounded soldiers to recover.

"Then do we need to inform the Yamen?" Zhao Yan asked.

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said: "Since we have left Chang'an, don't put on airs for the prince, just find a clean inn or private house.

By the way, I think we don't have much food. After you arrive in Jingyang, arrange a place to stay and go find a grain store. If you have time, ask where you can buy a carriage. "

"The humble post takes orders." After saying that, Zhao Yan rode away.

He didn't leave in a hurry, but first called other people to guard Li Chengqian's car, and then he took two people and hurried towards Jingyang.

Having arranged this, Li Chengqian continued to make future plans in his mind.

At the same time, in Chang'an City, because of Li Chengqian's westward journey, there was an uproar among the nobles.

Especially among the gentry groups, it aroused public outrage.

It's only two hours before the morning court. Originally, everyone should go home and rest for a while, and continue to work after rest.

But today is different, whether it is civil servants or military officials, they all gather together in twos and threes.

There is no way, Li Chengqian's departure will have too much impact on Datang.

And in Lu Yushi's mansion, the hall was also full of people, all of them were officials of the gentry, as well as some representatives of the gentry in Chang'an City.

Everyone chattered about what happened today, and for a while, the hall was noisy.

"That's enough, that's enough." Master Cui said, "Everyone knows the matter, the question now is, what should we do next? This time, the prince's departure will be a big blow to us gentry, Brother Lu , you are today's party, why don't you tell me?"

Lu Yushi frowned, but he still had to bite the bullet and said: "Everyone, His Highness the Crown Prince let us go today. If he hadn't pleaded for us before leaving, our fate today would be unpredictable..."

He really didn't want to continue to toss with them.

You know, it was really only a matter of one sentence for him to ransack his family today. He finally climbed back from the gate of hell, and he didn't want to try again.

Forcing the prince to abdicate and committing suicide...

Thinking about it now, he is afraid!
"That's not what you said." Lord Cui waved his hand and said, "It is inevitable for the crown prince to intercede for us, if he really drove our gentry to a dead end today, even if he can return to Chang'an in the future, how can he gain a foothold in the court? How to take over the world?
Don't forget that our gentry officials accounted for a full [-]% of the entire Tang Dynasty, and this still counts those honorable officials.

If there is no our gentry to help their Li family govern the world, wouldn't it be impossible to know a basket of generals with those big characters? "

The others all nodded after hearing this.

In fact, it is not surprising that these days, the power of the gentry is indeed too large.

You know, when the "Clan Records" is compiled in a few years, their Cui family will be listed as the first class, overwhelming the royal family of the Li family. In the end, Li Shimin was so angry that he ordered it to be rebuilt. Classified to the third class.

From here, we can see how powerful the nobles are at this time!
It is precisely because of this strength that no matter what the gentry children do, they are more confident than others.

"I have notified Jingyang." Master Cui continued, "The magistrate of Jingyang is from my Cui family, not only that, nearly [-]% of the shops in Jingyang are owned by my Cui family.

As for the prince's westward trip this time, because it was a temporary idea, he will definitely rest in Jingyang and replenish supplies.

What I mean is, everyone should move and mobilize the forces of various families. It is best to let the prince not replenish supplies along the way, and finally come back in disgrace. "

For Master Cui, he only felt that what happened today was a great humiliation.

Even though Li Shimin had been looking for opportunities to deal with the gentry, he had never been so rude to Li Chengqian.

Didn't you say that you want to go west?I will let you not even get the most basic food. It depends on how you go west, and when you come back in disgrace, it depends on how you face the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

To achieve this, it is really not difficult for their gentry.

It is true that the gentry did not produce high-ranking officials, but the low-level officials and middle-level officials were almost monopolized by them!
