Traveling through the Gaowu Tang Dynasty, Li Kuan and Li Shimin became the second sons of the Prince

Li Kuan did not stay too long in Kucha City, and he did not even go to see Princess Yicheng who lived in seclusion here.

He and Li Ji only stayed in the city for two days, and then set off again with the large army and headed for Qianquan City together.

But this time, it would take more than a month just to travel.

What His Royal Highness the King of Chu didn't know was that when he was about to arrive at Qianquan City, His Majesty Li Er looked at the former King of Gaochang, Ju Wentai, the current foreign minister of the Tang Dynasty, and his son Qu Zhisheng, standing in front of him, smiling uglier than crying. , and the three consecutive seals "Ordered by Heaven, Live forever" that the other party presented to him...

His Majesty Li Er's head is buzzing right now...

"You said..." It took him a long time before he came back to his senses and said to Qu Wentai: "My rebellious son wants you to go to Chang'an to receive the title?"

"Your Majesty..." As soon as Qu Wentai heard what His Majesty Li Er said, he immediately fell to his knees and said with a mournful face: "Can't you just keep your word?!"

Although these words were not originally spoken by His Majesty Li Er, but His Royal Highness King Chu is your son, right?

This letter...bah...imperial edict...bah! ——Qu Wentai, who learned the true meaning of the eight-character seal on the way, can’t tell what His Majesty Li Er has in his hands now...

"..." His Majesty Li Er's longing for his son reached its peak after Qu Wentai said these words.

Little bastard... I'm waiting for you to return to Chang'an... waiting for you to return to Chang'an!

-------------------------------------

"Li Ji, do you feel a chill on your back?" When Li Kuan was about to arrive at Qianquan City, for no reason, he suddenly got goosebumps on his body, which made him feel uneasy for a moment.

what happened? Is this king being targeted by something unclean?

"Your Highness King Chu, I feel everything is fine." Li Ji looked back at Li Kuan with some surprise: "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, maybe it's an illusion." Li Kuan shook his head after hearing this.

Li Ji beside him looked towards Qianquan City not far away: "After nearly two months of long journey, we have finally arrived..."

"Yes, the opportunity for us to show off our skills has finally come..." Li Kuan nodded after hearing this.

"..." After hearing this, Li Ji silently turned his head and glanced at Li Kuan: He really wanted to know how His Highness the King of Chu could show off his skills to be worthy of the wandering life...

But what Li Kuan and Li Ji didn't expect was that as soon as they entered the city and found an inn to stay, someone came to the door.

"His Royal Highness King Chu, Brother Li, you are well." When Dou Shilun appeared in front of the two of them with a smile on his face, it really shocked someone.

"Uncle Dou? Why are you here?" Li Kuan looked at Dou Shilun, who was dressed as a Hu Shang, and his head was filled with big question marks.

"Your Highness King Chu, this is not the place to talk. Please come with me." Dou Shilun said, and looked at Li Ji again: "Li Gong, it's not that I don't want you to know the secrets, but this matter involves a lot. You still..."

"I understand." Li Ji was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then nodded and said, "Mr. Dou, please don't worry, I will definitely keep everything about your appearance here."

"Thank you very much." Dou Shilun smiled when he heard this, and then made a "please" gesture to Li Kuan.

"Oh...Uncle Dou...Li Ji is now a good minister of my king..." Li Kuan really doesn't feel the need to carry Li Ji behind his back now.

"Your Highness, King of Chu, this matter involves a lot." Dou Shilun still said the same thing. Seeing that Li Kuan was not going to buy it, he added: "Involving Mr. Li will do him a lot of harm but nothing good."

Dou Shilun had finished talking about this, and Li Kuan could only nod his head and said, "Okay then... Mr. Li, I'll come back as soon as I go, you..."

"Your Highness, King of Chu, please rest assured. I will be waiting here with peace of mind." Li Ji suddenly felt that the pain he had suffered following the King of Chu these days did not seem so unworthy now that he thought about it.

"What I mean is, take good care of my goods and don't allow corruption."

"..." Li Ji pursed his lips, King Chu... this person... is so damn... it's hard to describe in words!

-------------------------------------

After joking with Li Ji, His Highness the King of Chu followed Dou Shilun on a camel and arrived at a remote residence in the city. Then the two got off the camel and entered a small room under the leadership of an old man covered in black gauze. In the courtyard.

"Your Highness the King of Chu," Dou Shilun, who was standing in the courtyard watching the old man leave, suddenly said: "Is the golden hairpin that the old lady left for you before she died still there?"

"Yes." Li Kuan nodded when he heard the words, and then took out the gold hairpin from his arms: "Here, here it is."

"Keep it away, Your Highness. It will be of great use later." After Dou Shilun saw the gold hairpin, he just nodded slightly, and then took the initiative to lead Li Kuan to the grape trellis to enjoy the cool air.

"Uncle Dou, who are we waiting for?" At this moment, Li Kuan could see the situation: Is there someone here, my dear grandmother?

"Your Highness, please wait patiently. When you meet that person, I will talk to you in detail later." After Dou Shilun said this, he began to close his eyes and rest.

Not long after, a dull sound of footsteps came, and then Li Kuan heard a loud voice coming from the door: "Dou Shilun, you better not lie to me. Is the head of the family really here? Strange, isn't the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty? Did you let Li Shimin become the head of the family?"

Before Li Kuan could see the person clearly, he saw the mountain-like figure of the person suddenly kneeling to the ground. The person lowered his head and saluted Li Kuan respectfully: "The Dou family's retainer, Yu Wenqing, has met the head of the family! "

"Ah?!" Looking at the person in front of him, Li Kuan felt that his brain was a little hard to use, but he still said habitually: "This strong man, please get up quickly..."

"Thank you, Master!" Yu Wenqing's voice was choked with sobs.

"Uncle Dou... What's going on? This..." It was only at this moment that Li Kuan finally saw Yu Wenqing's appearance clearly: a nine-foot tall man with black hair and blue eyes. Although he was dressed as a barbarian, judging from his appearance, the bridge of his nose Extraordinarily tall and straight, he doesn't look like a Han Chinese.

"Before his death, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yuwen Yong, once handed over an army of the Emperor's troops to the old lady. His original intention was that the old lady would still be protected by him after his death. But he did not expect that after Yuwen Yong's death, his son Soon after Yu Wen Yun came to the throne, he was unwilling to make progress, was tyrannical and immoral, and was extremely dissolute. The old lady couldn't bear it. She went to the palace several times to persuade her, but was blocked by her cousin. Later, Yu Wen Yun became the eldest son of Yu Wen. Chan died of illness the following year, and before his successor Yu Wen Chan had time to show off his talents, he was deprived of the throne by his grandfather Yang Jian..."
