Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"Guo Changshi, Guo Changshi?"

In order to get closer to Guo Ye, Li Ke called Guo Ye by his new identity when they met, the long history of the Governor's Mansion of Shuzhou.

Guo Ye woke up when he heard the words, and smiled awkwardly at his lack of focus, and apologized: "I was a little distracted thinking about this just now, Your Highness forgive me."

Li Ke shook his head and said: "It's not strange, it's about to leave Chang'an. This king and Guo Changshi have the same thoughts, and they feel reluctant."

Guo Ye could tell that Li Ke was young after all, and he still had a somewhat reluctant love for his family.

It's no wonder that a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, no matter how precocious, suddenly wants to leave his parents, away from Chang'an where he grew up, and be placed in a remote Shuzhong thousands of miles away. normal.

He in turn comforted Li Ke and said: "Your Highness, don't be sad, the young eagle will naturally fly high when it grows up. Otherwise, how can the young eagle grow into a soaring eagle?"

"Eagle soaring thousands of miles?"

Li Ke's eyes lit up suddenly, as if he had realized something, he nodded repeatedly and said, "That's right, Guo Changshi is right. With Guo Changshi following me to the feudal domain, I'm sure I won't be alone , and I won’t be helpless. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot an important thing..."

As Li Ke was talking, he exclaimed, and quickly took out a scroll made of silk-woven Yunfeng brocade from his arms, handed it to Guo Ye with both hands, and said, "This is the scroll that my concubine asked me to hand over to Guo Ye." Guo Changshi's."

Guo Ye took the scroll curiously, opened it and took a rough look, it turned out to be a royal seal?

Gao Feng, that is, Gao Ming Feng reward.

The so-called imperial rewards were not given to the court officials themselves, but to the emperor's great-grandparents, grandparents, parents, and wives for their merits.

If the object of the reward is still alive, it is called a patent, if the object of the reward is no longer alive, it is called a gift, also known as posthumous gift.

Guo Ye saw that it was written on the imperial award, that it was actually His Majesty Li Er who wanted to award his mother as the fourth-rank imperial wife.

The title of Mrs. Gaoming is of course a false title and has no substantive rights, but with the title of Mrs. Gaoming, it is like a kind of honorable existence in the village.

The grades of Mrs. Gaoming can be said to be distinct, and the clothes of Gaoming given by the feudal rewards are also different.

The rank of Mrs. Gaoming is basically linked to her husband or son who is an official in the court. Although Guo Ye, the governor of Shu Prefecture, only has a one-year term, he is always from the rank of the fourth rank. His old lady was awarded the honor of a fourth-rank imperial lady.

When Guo Ye first saw this imperial seal, he was very excited. Isn't this the best gift for returning home and benefiting his family?

He carefully put away the edict, put it close to his sleeve, and thanked Li Ke: "Guo Ye thanked Your Highness, and please have a chance to convey my gratitude to Concubine Yang for me. What a heavy gift!"

Seeing that Guo Ye liked it and was full of thankful words, Li Ke secretly said in his heart that his concubine's method of winning over people is still very good. A concubine who seems to be of no use can actually make Guo Ye very happy.

Invisibly, the relationship between Guo Ye and Li Ke has deepened.

Guo Ye didn't know what Concubine Yang was up to, she was courteous for nothing, raped or stolen.She just wanted to sell herself a big favor so that she could help Li Ke a lot in Shuzhong and do her best for her son.

Although he felt a little overwhelmed, but to put it bluntly, Concubine Yang's gift was too tempting to refuse.

Because, giving his mother the honor of being an imperial wife will not only allow him to return to his hometown in fine clothes, but also comfort his father who has passed away for more than three years, Guo Laohan's spirit in heaven.

Wasn't the old man's wish at the beginning just to let himself go straight to the sky and shine on the Guo family?

Just for this, he has to accept Concubine Yang's favor.

Li Ke said with a kind face: "Guo Changshi doesn't need to be so polite. From now on, you and I will be a family, and there is no need for such a relationship. In the middle of Shu, this king will have to rely on you a lot."

He can talk, he can do things, and his attitude is surprisingly approachable.

This is Guo Ye's first intuitive impression of Li Ke, the king of Shu, who is only twelve or thirteen years old, and it is a super good impression.

Compared with Crown Prince Chengqian and Wei Wang Litai, he is not even a little stronger!

At this time, a group of well-dressed young men suddenly emerged from the south gate, and all of them galloped out of the south gate on horseback, and came to Guo Ye in an instant.

As soon as they approached, all the young men got off their horses one after another, shouting in unison: "Second Brother, we are here, we are here to see Second Brother off~"

Those who came were Wei Shuyu, Fang Yiai, Qin Huaiyu, Cheng Huaiyi, Du He and other Guozijian classmates and good brothers.

Guo Ye looked at everyone with a smile and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Shu is present, how can he forget to salute and break the rules?"

When everyone saw it, they clasped their hands together and clasped their fists again, shouting loudly that the King of Shu is a thousand years old.

Li Ke, king of Shu, saw that these people were all children of important ministers of the court, and he was so happy from ear to ear, he thought, Guo Ye's appeal in Chang'an is still good, um, this king really picked up a treasure this time .

Then he said in a very personable manner: "Guo Ye, your old friends are reunited, and parting is imminent, so this king will not interfere. You talk first, this king will take the lead and wait for you in front."

Guo Ye hummed, and watched the king of Shu get into the carriage, and the mighty thousand-man brigade set off.

Afterwards, Guo Ye searched among Wei Shuyu and the others, but he didn't find the eldest grandson Yumo.

At this time, Qin Huaiyu suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Second brother, don't look for it anymore, Yu Mo seems to have been grounded by his father again. I heard that this time the father and son had a very violent fight."

Grounded again?

Guo Ye was secretly annoyed, the last time he was at his own home, because of Xiao Shen's suicide, he forgot to ask Yu Mo, what was the reason why he got into a fight with his father.

Forget it, let's talk about it later!

Afterwards, he chatted with everyone, and after encouraging each of them, he got on his horse and subconsciously glanced into the south gate.

He was not looking for the eldest grandson Yumo, but the officials of Tiance Mansion.He was very puzzled, what the hell, the fact that he was going to join the King of Shu as a domain was no longer a secret, so why didn't the officials from Tiance Mansion come to see him off?

Changsun Wuji didn't come, Fang Xuanling didn't come, Gao Shilian didn't come, they were all from the Tiance family, and none of them came to see him off.

Grandma, what the hell is going on?

He wondered in his heart, could it be because they felt that His Majesty sent me to follow the King of Shu, and Tiance Mansion never wanted to see Concubine Yang's mother and son, so these people directly expelled me from the Tiance Mansion?

Damn, Guo Ye frowned angrily, and said depressedly in his heart, if this is the case, then this time, His Majesty Li Er will really suffer from messing up the "mandarin ducks".

When he was extremely depressed, the king of Shu who had been waiting for a long time sent someone to inquire again. Guo Ye had no choice but to put away his depression and doubts and prepare to set off.

Then, he clasped his fists to Qin Huaiyu, Fang Yiai and others and said, "Brothers, thank you for coming to see us off. It's almost time, I should go."

Everyone showed their reluctance, and greeted Guo Ye step by step, and sent Guo Ye to the carriage where Zhenniang was.

After boarding the carriage, before getting into the carriage, Guo Ye showed a confident smile to everyone, and shouted: "I will leave Chang'an for a year. In Chang'an, you must learn to unite with sincerity and learn to solve difficulties by yourself. After returning to Chang'an, all of you are full of spirits and proud of the spring breeze. It is best that each of you can be promoted to rank, and the brothers can share the wealth."

After Yin Yin finished giving instructions, she finally arched her hands at them seriously, and shouted loudly: "Let's go, we will meet later!"

After all, the whole person got into the carriage, and the groom slammed it loudly, and the carriage slowly drove towards the King of Shu's team in front of him.

Seeing Guo Ye getting into the carriage and the carriage moving, everyone still had no intention of leaving and returning to the city.

On the contrary, one by one, they were still chasing after trotting, waving their arms and yelling in their mouths.

"Second brother, you have to come back early, without you, we brothers can't play well in Chang'an City!"

"Second brother, the land of wind, flowers, snow and moon in Chang'an City, we brothers haven't started playing yet!"
