This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!
Chapter 679 Volume 5 A sleepless night!
When Changsun Chong and others rushed towards Jingyang City non-stop, Li Tai also took his younger brothers and sisters out of Chang'an City.
If Li Tai represented the Tang Dynasty, he could actually go as far as the Ten Mile Pavilion. This was already the limit, and it was also the highest standard for the Tang Dynasty to welcome envoys.
However, since this guy was going in a private capacity, he didn't have to pay too much attention to it. He took his younger brothers and sisters and rushed to Jingyang City.
When passing by Shiliting Pavilion, Li Tai pointed to the pavilion and said to his younger brothers and sisters: "This is where Changle and his eldest brother bid farewell to their mother."
Hearing what he said, everyone subconsciously looked at Shiliting, which was getting further away, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
When they arrived at Jingyang City, they went straight to Wang Dequan's residence.
Li Tai naturally knew the whereabouts of Chang Sun Chong and others. The reason why he went straight to Wang Dequan's mansion was because he knew that this guy knew better.
When Wang Dequan saw these people, he was a little surprised, but since they came to the door, he had to respectfully invite them in.
"It is truly a blessing to our house that your highnesses can come to this humble residence." Wang Dequan said with a smile as he led the way.
Li Tai had never been the kind of condescending person, so he smiled when he heard this and said, "Shilang Wang is so humble. Who in Jingyang City doesn't recognize Shilang Wang now?
When we were at Riyue Mountain before, my brother once said that Wang Shilang was the benchmark for the Ming Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty.
Thinking about it from now on, Shilang Wang will have a bright future. "
Li Tai is still very optimistic about Wang Dequan's future. After all, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, this person has been like the magic needle that fixes the sea. He is stationed in Chang'an and handles problems on behalf of the Ming Dynasty. In the future, whether he returns to the Ming Dynasty or Li Chengqian comes back, he will be reused. On this point, there is no doubt.
"Your Highness is very fond of you." Wang Dequan heard this and cupped his hands toward the northwest and said, "Speaking of which, I am just lucky. I met your Highness when I was down and out, and that's why I have achieved what I have today. If it weren't for So, how can this old man be qualified to stand here and chat and laugh with His Highness?"
This is true.
When they met Li Chengqian back then, they only thought that Li Chengqian was a scholar of the Li family in Longxi, but they never expected that they would actually meet a real dragon.
Life is so magical, if you take the right step, you will be successful.
Thinking back again, there were not just a few of them back then, there were also Huang Song and others. Now these guys are probably full of regret.
However, this is the fate of life.
"That is also your own choice." Li Tai nodded, and did not dwell too much on this issue. He said instead, "By the way, when will my cousins arrive? I haven't seen them for many years. I feel nostalgic for them. Speaking of which, I am also very familiar with those guys from Riyue Mountain."
If anyone knew the whereabouts of Changsun Chong and the others, it was naturally Wang Dequan.Wang Dequan returned to Jingyang, which meant that Changsun Chong and the others were coming soon.
Wang Dequan was a little confused after hearing this, but after taking a few glances at Li Zhi and others, he roughly guessed it. He also smiled and said: "Changsun Shangshu and others estimate that they will arrive in more than an hour. If several highnesses come, I am ready to go out of the city to wait for you."
What he said was true, and he really thought so.
It's not that he rushed to flatter Changsun Chong, but that the Ming Dynasty's mission to the Tang Dynasty was really important to them!
He also needed to communicate with Changsun Chong and others as soon as possible, otherwise why would he run from Chang'an to Jingyang City at this time?
"That's just right. We're on the same road. I haven't seen my cousin for so many years. Not to mention, I'm really looking forward to it." How does Li Tai know?He said it immediately.
He knew that he was wasting other people's time.
"How can that be done? Your highnesses are coming to our mansion. At least let me host a banquet to entertain you." Wang Dequan said immediately.
He actually didn't care whether he was being treated or not, it was just a polite word.
And for him, it was appropriate to keep a certain distance from the Prince of Tang Dynasty.
"No need." Li Tai didn't understand this and said immediately, "We are here to pick up my cousin. Don't be so polite. We will only disturb Wang Shilang again when we come back."
Naturally, Wang Dequan would not insist. When he heard this, he also smiled and said: "Since His Highness insists on this, I will not insist on it. In this case, I will make arrangements immediately and we will set off."
After that, after chatting with Li Tai for a few more words, Wang Dequan really went to make arrangements.
After he left, Li Zhi asked in a low voice: "Third brother, is this the house where the eldest brother lived in Jingyang?"
Although he was still young when Li Chengqian left Chang'an, he had heard many stories about Li Chengqian over the years. As a big kid, he liked Li Chengqian's legendary experiences the most.
"It's not here." Li Tai said with a smile, "Who would dare to live in your eldest brother's house? But now it is well taken care of by them. When I have time in the future, I will take you to see it. There, but eldest brother built it back then." The holy place where the nobles won the first battle.
I heard that the Cui family planned to spend huge sums of money to buy that house, hehe..."
Speaking of this, Li Tai also had a smile on his face.
"Hmph, those people in the Cui family are so bad!" After hearing this, Princess Chengyang clenched her small fists and said angrily, "They are the ones who forced the eldest brother and eldest sister away. Otherwise, how could the eldest brother and eldest sister go to the Western Regions to suffer? !”
"That's right, I heard that the Cui family didn't let the eldest brother enter the city back then. How dare they? The eldest brother is the prince of the country. Who gave them the courage!" Li Zhi was also angry at the side.
Over the years, Empress Changsun has spent a lot of time on her children, but her efforts have not been in vain. The reaction of the two little guys is the best example.
Even though Xiao Xincheng didn't understand anything, he was very angry when he heard this.
If there was really no reaction, it was probably Yuzhang. After all, she was older, so she naturally knew that the noble family would not fare well in the end.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go. Let's go outside the city and wait for Changsun to rush over. I don't know if that guy has brought us any greeting gifts when he comes back this time. I can tell you, there are rare things in Riyue Mountain. That’s a lot.”
Li Tai still has a way to divert the minds of these little brats. Children, how many of them can pay attention?
This is also true. As soon as they heard Li Tai's words, several children inevitably started to look forward to it.
My cousin hasn’t been back for so many years, so there must be some souvenirs, right?
Not long after, Wang Dequan, who had arranged everything, came over with a respectful look on his face and said: "Your Highnesses, let's set off now. Someone just sent news that Changsun Shangshu and the others will arrive in less than an hour."
Li Tai also nodded when he heard this, and a group of little guys were also inexplicably excited at the moment.
For them, being able to come out and have fun is already very exciting.
Soon, everyone arrived at a place more than ten miles away from Jingyang City.
When they arrived, there were already many people gathered here, all arranged by the Jingyang County Government, and some of them were even transferred from Chang'an by the Ministry of Rites.
There was no way, the Ming Dynasty's mission was too huge, and a small county could not handle it.
A team of tens of thousands of people, haha, there are not so many people in many counties in the Tang Dynasty.
"Your Highnesses, I specially asked people to build a temporary place over there. If your Highnesses don't give up, you can go there and stay for a while. The eldest grandson Shangshu will be here soon, and I still have some things to arrange. , let’s go to the front and have a look after we’re done.”
As soon as he arrived at the place, Wang Dequan smiled.
Li Tai glanced at the pavilion over there and then smiled and said: "Master Wang, just go and do your own business. Let's just wait here. It's getting dark now, so I didn't bring much with me on this trip." Guards, you still have to take the safety of your younger brothers and sisters into consideration."
He didn't understand what Wang Dequan meant, and he was extremely cooperative at the moment.
After bowing and saluting, Wang Dequan watched Li Tai and others go there to rest for a while. After whispering a few instructions, Wang Dequan headed towards the direction of the mission.
In the past, as a merchant, he was not very good at riding horses, but since joining Li Chengqian, he has learned this skill.
Changsun Chong and others were actually not far away from Jingyang City at this moment. After a while, the two people who were running in both directions met each other.
"I have met the eldest grandson, Shangshu," Wang Dequan said respectfully as he rode off his horse.
How could Changsun Chong put on airs in front of him? He knew very well how he came to be a minister, but the person in front of him was really a direct member of Li Chengqian's team, and he was determined to have a bright future in the future.
"Master Wang, please don't do this. This little minister is just here to show his status as an envoy to the Tang Dynasty."
"That's right, Minister Wang, please don't give him too much face. Before we left this time, His Highness told us that when we arrived in Chang'an, we should listen more to Minister Wang's opinions." From the side, Fang Yiai also came over immediately.
Although they had not met Wang Dequan a few times, they were still familiar with him.
Last time they massacred Yin Hongzhi's family, it was this man who arranged their escape.
They still have confidence in this person's ability.
Changsun Chong was not angry, but nodded and said: "It's very, very true, His Highness specifically explained this before leaving. This time we have to rely on Wang Shilang."
This was an obvious sign of goodwill, and how could Wang Dequan, an old fox with a long experience in shopping malls, not hear it.
But he actually understands that even though he is just a minister of etiquette in name only, the weight of their Jingyang ties in the court is not ordinary.Not to mention Li Qinjian, the Minister of Household Affairs, and Yang Lin, the county governor, their sons all held important positions.
Although they are all Han people, within the Han people line, they can be subdivided into several factions.
Maybe this is the Han people. When there are foreign enemies, it is called unity. When there are no foreign enemies, haha, our own people are the biggest enemies.
"By the way, the King of Yue, King Jin, and His Highnesses Chengyang, Xincheng, and Yuzhang all came to Jingyang City, saying that they were coming to take the eldest grandson Shangshu back to Chang'an." Wang Dequan stopped dwelling on those issues and immediately put the final The important questions were extracted, "They found me, and I couldn't figure out what the King of Yue was thinking. But when I saw the princesses, the queen must have nodded. I guess there's no big problem, right?"
He is still doubting Li Tai's intentions. If it weren't for the presence of a few people from Xincheng, he would not have brought Li Tai here at all.
Of course, if Li Tai comes here on his own, he has nothing to do with it.
"That guy is actually here?" Fang Yiai immediately perked up when he heard this. "Last time he was in Riyue Mountain. Before he left, he went into the zoo we built for Changle and took the foxes raised in Changle. He stole one and ran away! Changle complained about him a lot!"
Hearing this, everyone seemed to remember that at that time, Changle thought that the fox was sneakily eaten by these guys and was causing trouble for them every day.
"Don't think about it. I heard that one year the King of Yue's birthday gift to the Queen was a white fox scarf. It might be that one." Wang Dequan also seemed to have remembered something.
Hearing what he said, Fang Yiai and others smiled sadly and said nothing.
If Chang Le knew about this, huh, that would be interesting.
Changsun Chong also said angrily: "Thankfully it's not that little white, otherwise Changle would probably be able to come back to Chang'an with a knife."
After joking, Changsun Chong saw that Wang Dequan still looked worried, and then said, "His coming this time is not a bad thing, this guy is most likely here to see the fun.
Plus there are Prince Jin and several princesses here, so he won't mess around. "
"It's best so." Wang Dequan said in a low tone.
This actually meant something to Changsun Chong and the others.
Everyone is smart and naturally understands this truth. They chatted a few words about the situation in Chang'an before everyone set off again.
On the other side, Li Tai and his younger brothers and sisters were not bored.
Especially for several children, there is little chance of leaving the womb when they are so old, especially at night.
Of course, their leisure was also obtained by countless guards sacrificing their rest time.
At this moment, countless people were silently guarding their safety.
Not to mention secretly, but openly, there are hundreds of arrogant people.
Even though some people from the Jingyang Yamen and the Chang'an Rites Department knew what was going on here, no one dared to come and cause trouble.
This is a huge difference in status.
"Coming, coming!" At this moment, someone shouted.
Li Taixun looked over, but saw nothing.
Li Zhi and others also retracted their heads in disappointment.
"Your Highness, the Ming Dynasty's envoy has arrived." When everyone thought they heard wrongly, Li Tai's bodyguard came to report.
"Are you here?" Li Tai stood up immediately.
"We're here, but you have to walk to the roadside to see it. Not to mention, I've never seen such a large mission before. Just a glance at it, it's quite shocking."
"Let's go!" Li Tai immediately called to his younger brothers and sisters and walked out without any hesitation.
The main reason is that sitting here is too boring, and besides, he needs to act like this now to protect himself.
A prince who doesn't look like a prince can't threaten that one, right?
But just as they were not far away, Li Zhi, Chengyang, and even Yu Zhang covered their mouths with their hands.
"Is this the mission?" Yu Zhang said in disbelief.
Li Tai was also a little confused. He had never seen this battle before!
I saw endless torches in the dark night. It would be an exaggeration to say that the night was dyed fiery red, but it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a winding fire dragon.
"I finally understand why they settled outside the city, and the Ministry of Rites also sent officials to receive them along the way." The soldier beside him said angrily, "If they suddenly appeared outside the city, the soldiers guarding the city would think there was a rebellion. Woolen cloth!"
It doesn't matter if there are a lot of people, but it can't stand up to the captain of the mission. This endless team appears under the city. If they are not notified in advance, they can really scare the soldiers guarding the city.
Li Tai actually had a lot on his mind at the moment. Although he knew that the Ming Dynasty had a large number of envoys, knowing and seeing them were two different things.
Some things can only be fully understood if you see them with your own eyes.
"Are those from Chang'an?" Li Tai asked softly after looking around.
The soldier glanced in the direction pointed by Li Tai, then nodded and said: "Well, I just went to inquire about it. They are all from the big families in Chang'an, including scholars and various princes. I heard that the King of Shu We’ve also sent people here.”
"Haha, I don't know how many people in Chang'an will have sleepless nights tonight." Li Tai said with a smile, "Although that person didn't come back, his envoy is here, bringing the most elite Chang Ming army of the Ming Dynasty. .”
He was extremely relaxed at the moment.
Sometimes, after giving up some desires, the pressure is inexplicably reduced.
The soldier also laughed when he heard this: "That's right, Chang'an has just started to jump up, and that person sent such a huge envoy. I don't know if those people can bear it."
He was a little lucky, but also a little gloating. His Highness didn't have that kind of thoughts. At this moment, he was just watching other people's jokes. What was he unhappy about?
Li Tai didn't speak, just watched quietly, watching countless people get on their horses and run towards Chang'an.
It is estimated that Chang'an is very lively tonight.
At this moment, the team at the front of the mission finally appeared in front of everyone.
After negotiating with the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Yamen of Jingyang, Changsun Chong went straight to Li Tai under the leadership of Wang Dequan.
Of course Li Tai did not move. As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he still had to take the face of the Tang Dynasty into consideration at this time.
"Foreign Minister Chang Sun Chong, I have met your highnesses." Chang Sun Chong bowed and saluted as he came over.
"The foreign minister's love..."
"Foreign Minister Cheng Chuliang..."
……
"Cousin, we are all our own, so don't bury me." Seeing this, Li Tai helped everyone up one by one. When it was Fang Yiai's turn, he slapped him on the back, "In Japan Why didn't I see you so polite when we were at Yueshan?"
"You also know that is Riyue Mountain?" Fang Yiai was not so restrained. He straightened up and said, "By the way, I tell you, you are finished!"
"Huh?" Li Tai was a little confused?
Fang Yiai didn't show off: "Hehe, Changle knows that you stole her fox, hehe..."
When he heard this, Li Tai had a dark look on his face...
However, he quickly retracted his thoughts, looked at Changsun Chong and said, "My cousin, it's been a long journey, thank you for your hard work."
Behind him, Li Zhi and others also followed suit.
In terms of status, they are naturally taller, but in terms of age, Changsun Chong is his cousin.
This is not usually the case, but Li Tai, what a talented person he is?
Changsun Chong immediately helped all his cousins up and said, "Who said you were too polite just now?"
Li Tai smiled and said nothing. Instead, he glanced at the crowd and asked, "Is there another cousin?"
A difference of [-] comments!Let’s each say a word!It's okay to scold me, otherwise there won't be enough power!
If Li Tai represented the Tang Dynasty, he could actually go as far as the Ten Mile Pavilion. This was already the limit, and it was also the highest standard for the Tang Dynasty to welcome envoys.
However, since this guy was going in a private capacity, he didn't have to pay too much attention to it. He took his younger brothers and sisters and rushed to Jingyang City.

This is a huge difference in status.
"Coming, coming!" At this moment, someone shouted.
Li Taixun looked over, but saw nothing.
Li Zhi and others also retracted their heads in disappointment.
"Your Highness, the Ming Dynasty's envoy has arrived." When everyone thought they heard wrongly, Li Tai's bodyguard came to report.
"Are you here?" Li Tai stood up immediately.
"We're here, but you have to walk to the roadside to see it. Not to mention, I've never seen such a large mission before. Just a glance at it, it's quite shocking."
"Let's go!" Li Tai immediately called to his younger brothers and sisters and walked out without any hesitation.
The main reason is that sitting here is too boring, and besides, he needs to act like this now to protect himself.
A prince who doesn't look like a prince can't threaten that one, right?
But just as they were not far away, Li Zhi, Chengyang, and even Yu Zhang covered their mouths with their hands.
"Is this the mission?" Yu Zhang said in disbelief.
Li Tai was also a little confused. He had never seen this battle before!
I saw endless torches in the dark night. It would be an exaggeration to say that the night was dyed fiery red, but it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a winding fire dragon.
"I finally understand why they settled outside the city, and the Ministry of Rites also sent officials to receive them along the way." The soldier beside him said angrily, "If they suddenly appeared outside the city, the soldiers guarding the city would think there was a rebellion. Woolen cloth!"
It doesn't matter if there are a lot of people, but it can't stand up to the captain of the mission. This endless team appears under the city. If they are not notified in advance, they can really scare the soldiers guarding the city.
Li Tai actually had a lot on his mind at the moment. Although he knew that the Ming Dynasty had a large number of envoys, knowing and seeing them were two different things.
Some things can only be fully understood if you see them with your own eyes.
"Are those from Chang'an?" Li Tai asked softly after looking around.
The soldier glanced in the direction pointed by Li Tai, then nodded and said: "Well, I just went to inquire about it. They are all from the big families in Chang'an, including scholars and various princes. I heard that the King of Shu We’ve also sent people here.”
"Haha, I don't know how many people in Chang'an will have sleepless nights tonight." Li Tai said with a smile, "Although that person didn't come back, his envoy is here, bringing the most elite Chang Ming army of the Ming Dynasty. .”
He was extremely relaxed at the moment.
Sometimes, after giving up some desires, the pressure is inexplicably reduced.
The soldier also laughed when he heard this: "That's right, Chang'an has just started to jump up, and that person sent such a huge envoy. I don't know if those people can bear it."
He was a little lucky, but also a little gloating. His Highness didn't have that kind of thoughts. At this moment, he was just watching other people's jokes. What was he unhappy about?
Li Tai didn't speak, just watched quietly, watching countless people get on their horses and run towards Chang'an.
It is estimated that Chang'an is very lively tonight.
At this moment, the team at the front of the mission finally appeared in front of everyone.
After negotiating with the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Yamen of Jingyang, Changsun Chong went straight to Li Tai under the leadership of Wang Dequan.
Of course Li Tai did not move. As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he still had to take the face of the Tang Dynasty into consideration at this time.
"Foreign Minister Chang Sun Chong, I have met your highnesses." Chang Sun Chong bowed and saluted as he came over.
"The foreign minister's love..."
"Foreign Minister Cheng Chuliang..."
……
"Cousin, we are all our own, so don't bury me." Seeing this, Li Tai helped everyone up one by one. When it was Fang Yiai's turn, he slapped him on the back, "In Japan Why didn't I see you so polite when we were at Yueshan?"
"You also know that is Riyue Mountain?" Fang Yiai was not so restrained. He straightened up and said, "By the way, I tell you, you are finished!"
"Huh?" Li Tai was a little confused?
Fang Yiai didn't show off: "Hehe, Changle knows that you stole her fox, hehe..."
When he heard this, Li Tai had a dark look on his face...
However, he quickly retracted his thoughts, looked at Changsun Chong and said, "My cousin, it's been a long journey, thank you for your hard work."
Behind him, Li Zhi and others also followed suit.
In terms of status, they are naturally taller, but in terms of age, Changsun Chong is his cousin.
This is not usually the case, but Li Tai, what a talented person he is?
Changsun Chong immediately helped all his cousins up and said, "Who said you were too polite just now?"
Li Tai smiled and said nothing. Instead, he glanced at the crowd and asked, "Is there another cousin?"
A difference of [-] comments!Let’s each say a word!It's okay to scold me, otherwise there won't be enough power!
