Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After making arrangements for Liu Yanqing and Zhao Long, and having a detailed discussion with Zhong Ruinian, Li Congjia already had a preliminary structure in his mind for his trip to Jianghuai.  If he is officially crowned king, he can have an army. According to the usual practice, it can be around 10,000. The more than 30 people mentioned by Zhao Long will be the basis for his army, and he must recruit them well.

    Recruiting troops requires money. Although the court has regulations, it is far from enough for me. If I want to do what I discussed with my cousin, I must master the local area as soon as possible, and it is extremely important to make good friends with those local officials.  ; And this matter cannot be too radical, otherwise your actions will make people suspicious. Not only that, but you can't play too many tricks on the number of soldiers. There are so many constraints and so little time.  Tight, really embarrassing.

    But the only plan for the present is to go to Jianghuai first. In any case, we must not let the history of losing the Jianghuai land happen again. Otherwise, don¡¯t talk about the world!  Although Li Congjia was 100% sure about the matter of seizing the king of Jianghuai, he was still a little uneasy because his father, the emperor, and his mother did not express it clearly!  There is no point in being anxious about this matter. In addition to strengthening training in the following days, Li Congjia also collects information about Jianghuai through various means.

    In the eyes of the servants, His Highness can be said to be extremely honest during this period. He gets up early every day and wanders around the courtyard, and then goes to Yangxin Pavilion to receive the teacher's teachings. He usually just spends time in the room with Liuzhu Ni. It seems that the Queen understands this.  After finding out Liuzhu's identity, His Highness began to favor her again. On the contrary, Yaohongshaofeng and Yaohongshaofeng, who were inseparable a while ago, are now being ignored!

    The person who can most feel the change in Li Congjia is Liuzhu. Firstly, she has served His Highness since she was a child and knows his temperament very well. Secondly, she has been facing him day and night during this period. Everything His Highness does is in her eyes.  !  Now Li Congjia can give people a sense of calmness, which is completely different from the frivolity he used to have. Since the incident with Xiaoyu, His Highness seems to have changed his temper. He no longer lingers on women, but he was not interested in them at all before.  Those books are now treasures he loves, and he lets himself read them to him every day without interruption.

    Others thought that His Highness had restrained himself after being reprimanded by the Queen, but Liuzhu knew that all this was his original intention. Although there would be embarrassing things between the two of them in the evening, Liuzhu could feel that His Highness was interested in him.  The affection was by no means a simple love, she couldn't tell what it was, she was just happy in her heart. Now Li Congjia suddenly had a lot of perseverance, and she persisted in studying and exercising!  It was impossible for her not to have any doubts about these changes, but she soon found the interface. His Highness was about to reach adulthood and was about to be crowned king. Of course, he would no longer be the same as before. Such Li Congjia would also make her feel more at ease.  Serve with all your heart!

    The son's adult is approaching, and the queen's mouth is unknowingly, how can she not be attentive?  Liu Zhu Mingzheng has the purpose of supervision. Through this girl, she can also know Li Congjia's recent actions. Her thoughts are basically the same as Liu Zhu's. Her son has grown up and is more sensible. The remarks of the two gentlemen also support her.  This view!  I couldn't help but feel very pleased.

    Although Li Jing is a bit ambitious and talented, as the emperor, he is not incompetent. His current state of mind is very different from when he ascended the throne. Although the brothers are close, they are not as good as his own son. On the throne  In terms of succession, he was inclined towards Wu King Li Hongji, but it was his own words that the brother and the younger brother said, but now he can't go back on his word.

    However, there are some things that he does not need to do personally. Nowadays, Li Hongji is extremely powerful in the court and has the support of many veterans. His power is still higher than that of the emperor's brother Li Jingsui. Although it has a lot to do with him, Li Jing's  Intentional indulgence is also key.  Li Jing would not turn a blind eye to the importance of the Jianghuai land. Apart from military affairs, the salt administration alone was a huge source of income for the Tang Dynasty. He handed it over to Li Jingsui to show his intention, but this time the situation changed.  , how can he feel at ease now? This matter is not trivial. The only people he can trust are his own parents and children!

    Li Hongji is already quite talented. If Li Congjia were to have a large number of troops outside and control the salt administration, it would be even more difficult for the emperor's brother to compete with him!  Based on his understanding of his second son, he wouldn't have any wishful thinking. It wouldn't be a big deal to have Liu Rengan as his military assistant!  Song Guogong, Taishi, and even the emperor's uncle were quite supportive of Li Congjia's decision to enclose Jianghuai, which further strengthened his belief.

    In the evening of that day, the queen's personal maid Feng'e arrived at Li Congjia's courtyard and asked him to meet Liuzhu. Li Congjia was naturally happy when he heard this and went happily. However, this time he did not go to Yixiu Palace but went straight to Yixiu Palace.  The Heart Palace is where Queen Zhong¡¯s bedroom is located.

    When they arrived at the palace, the queen had arranged a small banquet, and only Feng'e was left. Although she was a maid, no one in the inner courtyard dared to be disrespectful to Feng'e. Even brothers Li Hongji and Li Congjia had to be polite when they met.  Qi, she has been with the queen for a long time, and she seems to be the spokesperson.

    "Chongguang, Liuzhu, bothYour Majesty, there are no outsiders today, and I want to talk to you about my family.  "Empress Zhong was now dressed in casual clothes and said to the two of them with a kind smile.

    "Sister E came here in person today. The mother must have something to say to her son. The son is all ears to listen to the mother's teachings!" Li Congjia said seriously. Usually, the messengers are female officials, but today it is different, and the mother seems to be worried.  Hence this statement.

    "You kid, you must have heard some rumors, but I can't hide this from you. I think your eldest brother, uncle, and emperor uncle have all told you. The emperor has already made a conclusion, and he will be canonized as Jianghuai after your birthday.  The prince, guard the north of the Yangtze River for the Tang Dynasty!" Empress Zhong said.

    "Since the father has this intention, the son and ministers should obey the order. However, the child has been by his mother's side since he was a child and has never been far away. Now he has to be separated from his mother. The son is reluctant to let go!" Li Congjia was overjoyed when he heard this, but his face was filled with confusion.  He wanted to show his helplessness appropriately, pretending to be happy, and at the same time show his attachment to his mother!  With the experience of later generations, I have mastered the fire at this point just right, and my words are sincere.

    "Hey~~ How can I let you go as a mother? This is the intention of both the court and the people, and this outer seal is the law of the ancestors. You must not disrespect it! My son should also gain more experience and share your father's worries. The land of Jianghuai is barren.  There is a danger of military disaster again. You should take good care of yourself when you go!" After saying this, Empress Zhong's eyes were also slightly red. The old son and grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady. Even if you are a queen, you cannot escape human nature.  !  This youngest son has always been by her side. Now that once he is sealed off, he will not be allowed to return to the capital without an order from the court. How can she, a mother, not be worried about him!

    "Mom, the child must follow your mother's teachings when you go here, and you won't be disappointed. Besides, there are still Liuzhu by your side, so don't worry, mother!" Seeing his mother's true feelings, Li Congjia was also moved in his heart, and hurriedly said softly,  Shi Zhiyan already comes from his true heart.

    "Don't worry, Queen, I will do my best to serve Your Highness." Upon hearing this, Liuzhu hurriedly stood up and knelt down in front of the Queen. Queen Zhong was very kind to her.

    "Good boy, get up quickly, Chongguang, you have been by my mother's side since you were a child. This time you go out, the emperor will definitely have something customized, and my mother will not treat you badly. These things are given to you by my mother. I will find two of them later in the evening.  A capable person will send it to you." Empress Zhong reached out to pull up Liuzhu, opened a large sandalwood box next to her, and said kindly to Li Congjia.  As soon as the box was opened, it shone brightly under the light. It was filled with rare treasures and her savings for many years. Regardless of her status as a queen, her love for her son was the same as any other mother in the world.

    "Mother, how could you do this? The child is really scared!" As a prince, Li Congjia knew the value of this box of treasures very well. What moved him even more was this deep maternal love. This was exactly what he wanted in the future, even if it was  With the respect of a mother, I am afraid that I have given all these things. Even if I am short of money, I dare not accept it at this time, and there is a natural choking sound in my words!
