Chapter 160 (1/2)

Wu Mei asks Banmei to hold the Sleeping Princess Li Lingyue in her arms, and then slowly leaves the east palace. As the Taibao's Li Yifu, Wu Mei sends the queen Huameng and grain of grain under the command of Li Hong.

Just after two steps, Wu Mei suddenly turned to look at the east wall of the East Palace and said, ”what are you going to do with such a large area? Besides, is changlefang really not going to take it? ”

”There is no one to live in changlefang. In the future, the Taiping mansion will be in Prince Pu's mansion. Now changlefang, together with this large area, will be transformed.” Li Hong said with a smile.

”You can do it. I hope your father will agree with your decision.” Wu Mei shakes her head. Everyone knows Li Hong's mind now. The boy only has the position of shangshuling in his eyes.

She hoped that Li Hong could become the second Shangshu order of the Tang Dynasty after Li Shimin.

What's more, what Li Hong has done is not a governor in Beijing, let alone a minister of the Ministry of finance's rights and duties. It is the right that a senior official of the Ministry of finance should exercise.

Looking at his mother's departure, Li Hong continued to sit there to prepare for fishing. With the help of his grandson Xu Yanbo, Xu Jingzong sat down with Li Hong with a fishing rod and began fishing.

”What else? My empress dowager even invited you to come here because of tomorrow's Court Affairs. Come on, what's the matter? You've never suffered a loss. After you've given me advice, you'll have something to do for you. ” Li Hong stares at the water and says faintly.

Xu Jingzong shook his head with a bitter smile. He asked him to do something. Although he said that he had selfish intentions, he was punished by his royal highness in the end?

”Your Highness, even if the old minister doesn't analyze tomorrow's court today, he will ask you for something.” After Xu Jingzong's fishing rod was put into the water, he no longer looked at it, but was staring at Li Hong's side face all the time.

”What's the matter? I can't do it beyond the scope of my authority. By the way, should I call you Xu banchao? I found out that you still have so many people to recommend you in chaotang Li Hong has always been as hard as iron to Xu Jingzong. He knows that if he doesn't, he may unconsciously follow Xu Jingzong's way.

Xu Jingzong could only smile bitterly and said, ”Your Highness, I know that you are going to the western regions for nothing else. I only hope that you can take Xu Yanbo with you when you travel to the western regions.”

Finally, Xu Jingzong's face was full of solemnity.

”Why do you want him to go to the western regions with me?” Li Hong's fishing level is not very good. At the beginning, Li Zhi and Wu Mei once sat in Taiye pool for a whole morning, and they caught two fish in total.

But I don't know what happened today. This fish is like a line waiting for the hook, one after another.

Looking at Li Hong's fishing rod, Xu Yanbo grabs the line in a hurry and starts to untie the fish on the hook.

”I'm selfish. I used to follow the first emperor, and then I got the grace of your majesty. Now I'm old, but the sons of the Xu family need not only loyalty but also ability to continue to serve the royal family. Now Yan Bo has enough knowledge and experience. I hope your highness can take him to practice and have more opportunities to learn around you. This is the blessing of his Yan Boxiu. ” Xu Jingzong's fishing rod was almost taken away by the fish, but Xu Jingzong held the fishing rod still and watched the fish under the water moving.

Li Hong watched Xu Yanbo hang the bait for him and threw the hook into the water again. He said, ”you are a smart man. You know the purpose of my trip to Anxi four towns. Therefore, this trip will not be as easy as I went to Taiyi city. I don't think it's life or death, but it's life or death. I'm afraid I won't be able to make the decision at that time. Are you mentally prepared? In case you follow me out and come back to give you a pile of skeletons, will you

”Your Highness, I have already put life and death out of the way. As long as you can follow the palace, even if you die in the western regions, it is my blessing.” Xu Yanbo respectfully aside, timely interposed to Li Hong said.

Li Hong looks at Xu Yanbo's positive cheek, smiles and nods to indicate that he should step down. How can he not know Xu Jingzong's mind?

In order to ensure the continuity of the family and make sure that the family can become a powerful family, it is not enough to rely on him as prime minister. Instead, he needs future generations to become close to the royal family. Only in this way can his family prosper and be equal with the real powerful families.

So for Xu Jingzong, sacrificing a grandson is nothing at all? The royal family is full of ruthlessness, but there are also people who are not. Today's Prince is a man of love.

Even if Xu Yanbo died in the western regions, the crown prince would never turn a blind eye to the decline of the Xu family. His other grandchildren might follow Xu Yanbo's skeleton and go to the top of his official career. He could not become the Prime Minister of the Council, but it is not impossible for him to be a governor.
