Although the death of Wang Jun, the governor of Longyou, Hexi, at the end of the 15th year of Kaiyuan, caused a great uproar. However, with the new governor of Longyou, Hexi, Xiao Song, took office, recommended Zhang Shouqi as the governor of Guazhou, and then used counter-espionage to induce Tubo Zanpu to kill Tubo general Sinuoluo. Longyou, which was once shrouded in the darkness of the war, finally gradually calmed down. Zhao Yizhen, deputy governor of Anxi, defeated Tubo again, thus curbed Tubo's offensive momentum, and everyone in the court breathed a sigh of relief.

Therefore, in the 16th year of Kaiyuan, Li Longji finally lived a comfortable life. The only thing he cared about was that the forty or fifty states in Hedong and Hebei had not yet recovered due to the floods and droughts in the past two years.

Although the Tea Indication Office, which Du Shiyi requested to establish, was very good in Jiangnan and Huainan, and sent considerable money and grain at the end of the year, due to the flood, the waterways of the canal were once congested, which made him very angry. After getting angry with the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Wang Jun for a long time, he realized that this person who was better at fighting was war, and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue was just a name. More importantly, after Yuwen Rong left his post, he had never appointed a new Minister of Revenue to coordinate. The departments of the Ministry of Revenue were all doing their own things. More importantly, after Yuwen Rong left his post, he had never appointed a new Minister of Revenue to coordinate. The departments of the Ministry of Revenue were all doing their own affairs.

It is also because of this that on the day of the Yuan Dynasty, he was lucky enough to be in Jixian Hall, facing the gathering of the most famous literati and scholars in the world. When he wrote poems and chanted the saints, he couldn't be much energetic. He was so excited that he took a walk for a while and then left. He was not interested in going to Wu Huifei to sit there. After thinking about it, he simply turned to the Pear Garden. He originally planned to call Aunt Gongsun to perform the latest rehearsal sword dance, but who knew that Li Guinian came to Yuzhen Temple in fear and fear that Aunt Gongsun had gone to Yuzhen Temple.

"Yu Zhenguan? When did Gongsun get so close to Yuanyuan?"

He was puzzled by his heart. Li Longjisi thought about it and suddenly became interested in leaving the palace to go for a walk with his two legitimate sisters. Although the emperor's departure from the palace was of great importance, if the ministers learned about it, they would definitely advise him repeatedly, and even criticized him if they spread it. However, after Gao Lishi and Yang Sixu failed to persuade him, they could only help the emperor cover up.

When the group of people got off the horse in front of Yuzhen Temple in Fuxingfang, Yang Sixu went to the door to inform him. After a while, Huo Qing hurried out. When he saw the emperor, he was startled and forgot about Yang Sixu's terror. He glared at him angrily: "General Yang, did you actually say that you just have something to see me?"

"Can you let the Lord come out to welcome him? Isn't this an obvious way to tell the Lord that you are here? Besides, on the Chinese New Year Festival today, from princes and people to the people, you can go out to watch the lanterns and have fun with the people. Your Majesty also misses the Lord." Yang Sixu knew that Huo Qing was Princess Yuzhen's confidant, and one of the few people who were not afraid of seeing him. Therefore, although he deliberately showed his fierce appearance, he showed a little helplessness in his voice. "Li Shi and I persuaded him, but I really couldn't stop him. I could only come quietly without hiding Chen Xuanli and the North Gate Guards. Don't just make a statement."

"The master of the temple is talking to Du Shijiulang, and at least I have to report it."

As soon as Huo Qing finished speaking, he suddenly found that Li Longji had appeared behind Yang Sixu. She was caught off guard. Before she could explain anything, Li Longji said in an unquestionable tone: "Lead the way."

These two concise words made Huo Qing dare not refute, and immediately bowed and led the way. When Li Longji asked about Gongsun Aunt Gongsun, she thought about it and asked vaguely: "It is Gongsun’s disciple Yue Wuniang, who is the disciple of Gongsun, who has returned, so the master has borrowed a place so that the master and disciple can meet."

"So that's it." Li Longji was not unfamiliar with Aunt Gongsun's apprentice. He let go of this and asked again, "Is your noble master Du Shijiulang whom you meet alone?"

Faced with such a problem, Huo Qing felt extremely embarrassed. The kings were not allowed to hand over other officials other than relatives. Although the noble master did not have this restriction, most of them would avoid suspicion accordingly. The same was true for the two princesses and princesses, the two golden branches and leaves that had already entered the Tao and became outsiders. Therefore, even if there were people who helped to recommend famous people in the past, they would probably reduce their contacts in the future. Du Shiyi was a rare exception. After a quick wisdom, she calmed down and thought of a reason.

"Du Shijiulang came to see the noble master for his disciple Chen Jizhen."

After saying this, she finally felt relieved. In addition, the two of them did talk about this matter, so she carefully explained Chen Baoer's life experience one by one, and finally sighed: "Du Shijiulang told the Lord that it would be a pity to miss such a good material and jade from the countryside, but now he is on the right hand to make up for the official position. He is too busy with official duties and is difficult to mention it day and night, so he wants to ask for a relationship, can he make up for the lack of officials such as Lingshi Books and Lingshi?"

The second half of the last was purely because Huo Qing had nothing to say and he made up, and he was secretly regretful as soon as he said that. Seeing that Li Longji showed hesitation and did not ask questions, she couldn't help but be more careful. As a result, when Princess Yuzhen was about to entertain the small building, Li Longji stopped outside the Jiuqu Bridge.

"You are all waiting here."

Although he had already ordered people to take a detour to report the news at that time, he didn't know it was the emperor, but only Yang Sixu came over. Huo Qing was really worried that Du Shiyi would not know what he had just reported. But the emperor said nothing, so she could only wait outside and watched Li Longji slowly walk towards the small building.

"How come General Yang has time to come to me?"

Li Longji, who was in his prime, practiced martial arts in his youth and was proficient in bows, horses, riding and shooting. Now he is over forty years. He is still tall and strong. He stands in front of the door. Because of casual clothes, Princess Yuzhen, who is facing him, is thinking about how to move the next move. He didn't notice who the person was. He thought it was Yang Sixu. Du Shiyi was also distracted and thought about the second use of the two things. He just arranged a tribute to Princess Yuzhen for the Sanqing sacrifice to the balcony of Wangwushan, which Sima Chengzhen was about to be completed. He didn't pay attention to the door at all. When he heard Princess Yuzhen's words, he sighed.

"General Yang came in just the right time. I couldn't play this game of chess. I just asked the master for a little bit of work. She decided to play chess while considering this article "The Three Qingshus of the Japanese and Taiwan Sacrifices". It's so difficult for me to be distracted and use it twice."

Seeing that the two of them really didn't know that they were here at all, Li Longji immediately smiled: "What's the matter with Du Shijiulang begging Yuanyuan?"

Hearing this voice, Princess Yuzhen came back to her senses when she was shocked and found that Guo was his brother, so she quickly got up and saluted. Du Shiyi's reaction was only a little slower. While she was rushing to get up, she did not forget to take the opportunity to knock over the chessboard. As a result, after the salute, Princess Yuzhen's glaring eyes immediately attracted.

"Okay, Du Shijiulang, I'm going to win soon, you did it on purpose."

"Yes, yes, yes, please don't make things difficult for me, otherwise, although I have already gained my flaws in the Three Qingshu, I will not be ugly."

"It's all for the emperor's close ministers, and I can't afford to lose so much."

Princess Yuzhen habitually talked with Du Shiyi. When she looked up and saw Li Longji looking at her and the other two with interest, she quickly smiled and said, "Brother, why are you interested in coming here on the Lantern Festival?"

"Come on your own, I want to see you two sisters, but I don't want you to have someone with you Yuanyuan." Li Longjiyu smiled with a pun, then suddenly looked at Du Shiyi and asked, "Du Shijiulang, I heard that you have accepted a disciple in Shu?"

How come Li Longji knows this?

Du Shiyi secretly complained, but did not dare to neglect at all. After a change of thought, he cheered up and said, "That's right, I just mentioned this to the Lord Yuzhen Temple. He had followed me out of Sichuan and worked as a record room along the way, which was a lot of experience..."

"Since I value this son, how can I let him be from a foreign official?"

Where do you start with this?

Du Shiyi was extremely puzzled and didn't know how to proceed for a moment. But he was quick and quick to follow the emperor's words: "This son was born in a humble background. His ancestors in his family have been working for farming for generations, and never had a scholar. When I was living in Chengdu County, I wanted to add a silk cotton jacket to him. He insisted that it was easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it was difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Now he is still wearing a kapok jacket and always wants to find some life within his ability. If he just eats mine and uses mine, he will feel uneasy, so I really can't deal with his stubborn nature."

Seeing that the emperor was indeed not impatient, he simply told two interesting stories about Chen Baoer vividly. At the end, Li Longji waved his hand and said, "It is much more difficult to choose a foreign item than a foreign item. Moreover, once it is flowing out, it will definitely be looked down upon in the future. Since he is such a talented and beautiful person, why not let him take the Boys's School

"Brother, he is already thirteen years old and is over."

The Boys are specially designed for those precocious boys, so Li Longji said this just now. At this moment, Princess Yuzhen explained, and Du Shiyi shook her head and said, "He started too late. Even if he could recite it through his eyes, his foundation in classics and history is far inferior to those of the children of the official families who have been influenced by family education since childhood. As for the article, it has just started now, and even if he can apply to the Boys, it will be a good source of growth."

"Du Shijiulang is quite like a division commander." Li Longji stepped forward and sat down on the lord seat given up by Princess Yuzhen. Then he said lightly, "I won't talk about you, a disciple. I am in a bad mood today, so I walked around and arrived at Yuanyuan. I only realized that you are there too. You have a good position in financial planning. I will ask you, now there are countless floods and dams in various prefectures in Hedong, Henan, Hebei, and disaster relief has been delayed repeatedly. Is there any way you can?"

Princess Yuzhen didn't want Li Longji to suddenly change his words and talked about the serious matters. After thinking about it, she quietly withdrew. When she went out along the Jiuqu Bridge, she saw Huo Qing, Yang Sixu and others standing on both sides. She waved and called Huo Qing under the willow tree on the side. Before she could speak, Huo Qing suddenly said anxiously: "Master, I just said the wrong thing. Your Majesty asked Du Langjun what to talk to him. In desperation, I said it was for his disciple and said that he wanted to plan a clerk's shortcomings, but Du Langjun clearly did not come for this matter... I deserve to die."

"It's okay." Princess Yuzhen split a hand to support Huo Qing, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, Du Shijiulang followed His Majesty's words to make this happen. Be careful next time. Your Majesty is mixed with Yang Sixu today and is likely to be so contempt next time."

In the small building, Du Shiyi faced Li Longji's sudden problem and was really a little confused. He found himself asking casually, or was planning to ask himself. If he really wanted to talk about financial plans, he was not very good at it. In other words, such things as disaster relief and reduction require practical experience and trustworthy manpower, such as arm and command. Therefore, after thinking about it carefully and thinking, he raised his head and said, "Since Your Majesty is asking, the minister will say something bluntly. For those who have only judged the tea envoy, there is someone more suitable for consulting this matter than those who have only judged the envoys of tea."

"who?"

"Yu Wenrong, the governor of Weizhou"

Li Longji has also considered this name several times. Now Du Shiyi suddenly mentioned it. He couldn't help staring at the person for a while, then he asked calmly: "Du Qing and Yuwen have had a personal relationship?"

"When I was the first to serve as the Zuoshiyi and the Chengdu Order, Zeng had a good personal relationship with Yuwen Envoy." Du Shiyi knew that this was impossible to hide from the emperor, so he admitted it calmly. "But after leaving Shu, Yuwen Envoy had exchanged opinions with me on the matter of two taxes and planned to promote it all over the world. But at that time, I felt that it was not the time and had a debate. Then, for some reasons, Yuwen Envoy and I were a little unhappy. However, public is public and private, Yuwen Envoy had been in charge of disaster relief two years ago, and now he is in Weizhou, and he happens to be in charge of this matter. He has had the experience of being the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue to coordinate financial planning, which is far better than me."

Although there is no spy agency to supervise all officials, as the emperor, even if Li Longji is not smart, if he wants to know something, he can still find out roughly through the eunuchs in the palace. Especially before, Yuwen Rong and Zhang said that he was extremely concerned about this kind of party struggle, so he naturally could understand what happened. This time Du Shiyi got married, Yuwen Rong had never even given a gift, which shows that the relationship was indeed a bit stiff.

"Well, I know your recommendation, don't tell anyone."

Du Shiyi owed her body, and at this time, Li Longji suddenly stood up and said, "I heard that Gongsun's disciples are coming. I have never seen them perform on the same stage for many years. I have to take advantage of Yuanyuan's place to watch.

Li Longji said this, which means he had passed the test, but he said he was going to see the sword dance of Gongsun and Yue Wuniang, but Du Shiyi was a little happy. You know, Yue Wuniang brought Luo Ying together today. The kind of scene that was exactly the same as when he first met Princess Jinxian must have happened between Gongsun and Luo Ying. However, it was necessary to stop Li Longji. He followed him out of the small building. Seeing that Princess Yuzhen and Master Huo Qing were standing under the willow tree, he suddenly had an idea.

"Today's New Year's Day, will Your Majesty go to Huayou Xianghui Tower to enjoy the lanterns?"

In the second year of Kaiyuan, Li Longji officially changed Xingqingfang, which he lived before ascending the throne, to Xingqing Palace. Since then, he has expanded one after another, and has begun to expand the court since the previous year, and has been used as a preparatory use for Li Longji to listen to the government. The opposite of the building of Qinzhengwu is the Huaye Xianghui Tower, which is used to promote the friendship between the emperor and the brothers. At this moment, he asked this question, and when he saw Li Longji nodding slightly, he smiled and said, "My minister advises you, today on the New Year's Day, your Majesty will watch Gongsun and Yue Niangzi's master-apprentice sword dance in Yuzhen Temple. Why not ask their masters and apprentices to perform in front of Huaye Xianghui Tower, and your Majesty and the people will have fun?"

As soon as these words were said, Li Longji was stunned at first, and then he was very happy: "Since that's the case, I'll ask you."

When he came to Princess Yuzhen and Huo Qing, he smiled and said, "I originally planned to give Gongsun a master and apprentice a talent with Yuanyuan, but Du Shijiulang was in a bad mood. I returned to the palace to go to the evening banquet of Huaye Xianghui Tower. Tell Gongsun that she and his disciples can show their skills in front of Huaye Xianghui Tower. I and the ministers and the people will have fun together. You and Ba Niang remember to come earlier.

Princess Yuzhen didn't mind that her brother had almost said a few words to her and went back. When Yang Sixu and others surrounded the emperor and left, she gave her a few symbolic steps, but she stopped because she was afraid that others would notice the clue. Then she said angrily to Du Shiyi beside her: "You are so bold. In order to cover up their master and apprentice, she forced her brother away."

"Aren't I forced myself to do anything? Just now when I went to play chess with the master, they hugged their heads and cried bitterly. What if His Majesty asked anything, wouldn't it be troublesome? He can only see Jian Wu's heroic figure from afar and can't see people clearly. Even if he called them up, there were others next to him. After being sad just now, their master and apprentice would not be as uncontrollable as they are now."

"You, it's true that you are pitying for the beauty." Princess Yuzhen was not angry. After asking Huo Qing to send a message, she asked Li Longji what he asked and said, and then she took away the joke expression just now, "Gu'an is about to leave, this is a dangerous move."

Du Shiyi smiled slightly and said firmly: "Even if it is difficult, I have to leave."

As Du Shiyi said, the old lady Gongsun and Yue Wuniang, who met with their masters and apprentices, were unable to perform any sword dance for Li Longji just now. The old lady Gongsun, who was always strong in front of others, had red and swollen eyes, and tears were scars. Yue Wuniang, who had always laughed and scolded all by her heart, had her eyes swollen like peaches. As for Luo Ying, who was standing on the side, she had a bright red slap on her face, and she stood aside with her head down.

"Five Niang, since you have agreed to his proposal and have worshipped the world in the wilderness, you don't have to do it for me now. You two have kowtowed me, even if you have done a courtesy." Having said that, Mrs. Gongsun suddenly looked at Luo Ying, and her eyes suddenly became as sharp as the light of a sword. "Luo Ying, since you already know what kind of suffering Wu Niang has suffered in the past, and it almost caused her to die. If you have any place to be sorry for her in the future, even if you escape farther, I will definitely chase her with a sword. Do you understand?"

Luo Ying raised her head in disbelief. Seeing that although the cold light on Aunt Gongsun's face was revealed, deep sadness appeared in his eyes. He immediately gritted his teeth and knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed again: "As long as Gongsun everyone is willing to marry Wu Niang to me, I will treat her well and will never let her suffer any more."

"You dare to say, who has been causing trouble on the road?" Yue Wuniang glanced at Luo Ying, then said with a smile, "Master, don't worry about me anymore. Even though the little monk is so bad, he only has me in his heart.

"Five Niang" Aunt Gongsun stepped forward and hugged her beloved disciple tightly, patted her back, and then said word by word, "If you can find someone you like, the master will no longer have any worries."

"Gongsun, Madam Yue"

Huo Qing, who was hurriedly seeing the scene, felt in his heart that Du Shiyi had wisely swearing the emperor, otherwise it would be difficult to explain. Seeing that the master and apprentice were finally separated from each other and looked at her, she explained the whole story just now. When Du Shiyi actually gave Li Longji away, Yue Wuniang immediately smiled.

"After all, it's Du Shijiulang. He is really skilled and brave. If the saint really comes unexpectedly, I will not be in the mood to dance a sword for him, but it won't be tight at night. At worst, I will run away after the sword dance. I don't want to perfunctory those lustful and nobles." Speaking of this, Yue Wuniang suddenly realized her grammatical problem and couldn't help but say guiltily, "However, leaving the master alone in the palace, the disciple is really unfilial."

"I can stand it more than you. If you enter the pear garden, I'm afraid you won't know what happened in a flash." Gongsun aunt thanked Huo Qing and waited for the others to leave, she smiled, "But I haven't seen you dance swords for many years, I don't know how skill you are now. Wu Niang, can you dance with your master again?"

"Okay." Yue Wuniang nodded without thinking, and then signaled to Luo Ying, "Luo Ying, go and invite Du Shijiulang to come. His song of Chu and Han must be more and more perfect."

That night, in front of Huayou Xianghui Tower, countless people who wanted to pay tribute to Tianyan and those top people in the palace, such as the palace, were fortunate to see the scene that they were worthy of boasting to others throughout their lives.

In the song "Chu and Han" performed by the musicians in the Liyuan Garden, they not only saw the style of overlords dominating the world, but also saw Yu Ji, who was different from the legends in history books. The red dress followed the overlords and fought with him until the end of the end, and Yu Ji, who had just committed suicide with the overlords, brought some unusual sadness to this Shangyuan Ye.

However, at the end of the song, only Aunt Gongsun climbed the third-floor Huaye Xianghui Tower. According to what she said when she thanked the emperor for the reward, Yue Wuniang was not used to appearing in front of others and had already left. Even though Li Longji sighed, his own Liyuan already had Aunt Gongsun, who was unparalleled in the world, and could not take over his disciples, which was just a faint regret.

But the song finally ended up in the crowd. In an instant, Yue Wuniang, who was disguised and slipped away with Luo Ying's help, met Du Shiyi and Wang Rong, who had made an appointment to meet earlier, said a word with a smile.
Chapter completed!
