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

The chaos in Chang'an came to a temporary end.

And His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who is far away in Gaochang, is now in a dilemma.

“Xuan Ce, do you think I should let Lian’er, Wan’wan, Shuyi and Yue’er wait in Chang’an for a year or two? As for sister Wu Xu, should she stay in Jingzhou first? After I have arranged everything in Qiongzhou, I will send a ship to dock in Yangzhou to pick them up. Or should I take them all with me when I go to Qiongzhou this time? But… I’m afraid they won’t be able to stand the long journey.” In the evening, in a roadside restaurant in Gaochang City, King Chu was worried: “But… Jiaojiao must follow me to Qiongzhou first, so in this case…”

"Your Highness, are you afraid that you can't control yourself?" Before Wang Xuance could even open his mouth, Yuan Tiangang on the side had already started to cut into His Highness the Prince of Chu's center lane: "Your Highness... you are a young hero, full of vigor and vitality, and with this beauty by your side... it is indeed difficult to resist the temptation..."

"Gangzi, you talk too much, do you know that?" Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu grabbed a roasted rabbit leg from the table and stuffed it directly into Yuan Tiangang's mouth: "Even eating can't stop your mouth, what do you want to do?! Hey! Rabbit leg, come and eat!"

"..." Upon hearing this, Yuan Tiangang silently accepted the "humiliation" of His Royal Highness the King of Chu. However, from his trembling shoulders when he turned his head, it can be seen that Taoist Yuan did not feel pain or sadness, but...

Well, very happy.

"Your Highness, the baked naan here is delicious. Shall we bring some back for the old Taoist priest to try?" At this moment, Pei Xingjian, who was sitting next to His Highness the King of Chu, suddenly spoke.

"Zhenxuan, take a look." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu immediately turned his gaze to Zhang Zhenxuan who was enjoying the roasted lamb leg alone: ​​"The gap has already emerged!"

"Your Highness, didn't you have people prepare all these?" Zhang Zhenxuan, who was teased by His Highness the King of Chu, said helplessly, "You have bought up all the rare herbs in Gaochang City. I'm afraid you prepare dozens of kinds of medicinal food for my great-grandfather every day. It's really hard for you to be so attentive."

"Haha, I just got the hang of this recently." His Royal Highness the King of Chu laughed out loud when he heard this: "As long as Old Heavenly Master, Yu Aweng, Lai Aweng, Zao Aweng, Master Yu, Master Xiao, and Master Li can prolong their lives, of course I am willing to spend money."

"Your Highness, if the Western Regions can maintain long-term peace and stability in the future, you will not have to worry about the sales of your colored glaze, which is also a good thing." Speaking of money, Wang Xuance, as the counselor of His Highness the King of Chu, immediately thought of a way to make money: "It would be great if Gaochang City could always be your fiefdom - after all, it is a transportation hub connecting the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions, and there are endless merchants traveling along the Silk Road. As long as we manage Gaochang well, it will be a treasure trove!"

"I have many ways to make money." His Royal Highness the King of Chu waved his hand upon hearing this: "No need to rush - when we reach Qiongzhou in the future, I will directly use seawater to make salt. As for mining and smelting... there are many mines in Japan. If you need raw materials, I can just go and buy them - in addition, there is a huge island further south of Japan, where the minerals are even richer, but these are things that will happen many years later, so take your time."

"Your Highness, why do you know all this so clearly?" Yuan Tiangang, who was originally afraid of being given a "beggar's kick" again, was obviously amazed that His Highness the King of Chu could actually master such rich geographical knowledge.

"The old master knows how to do it, but I don't." His Royal Highness the King of Chu blinked his eyes when he heard this: "But the old master doesn't know how to do it, either."

"Master Yuan, if you have any more questions, let's practice together?" As a good retainer of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Zhang Zhenxuan's response was much simpler.

"No, Zhenxuan, don't bully Gangzi." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu began to add fuel to the fire upon seeing this.

"That's right." Yuan Tiangang was rarely protected by His Royal Highness the King of Chu, which made him very happy: "Little Heavenly Master, I am just curious."

"..." Zhang Zhenxuan silently put down the chopsticks in his hand after hearing this, and on the bench behind him, the ancient long sword that had been sheathed suddenly made a clanging sound.

"Zheng!"

Yuan Tiangang was immediately shocked.

"Steamed?" His Highness the King of Chu's ears were not very good, and that was well known: "Who? Who said there was steamed food? Shop owner? If you have steamed food, please bring it up quickly. Don't worry, I will not only give you enough money, but also make sure you get rave reviews!"

"..."To be honest, if the owner of this restaurant didn't consider that His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu and his group were really not easy to deal with, he would rather not do this business than want the other party to patronize his shop.

Didn’t you see that ever since those guys came in, no passerby dared to step into the shop?

Especially after His Royal Highness the King of Chu called out "This King", people had already guessed that the Han young man in luxurious clothes was some queen of the Tang Dynasty. The shopkeeper now had to hold on to the stove to barely stay standing.

"Your Highness, stop making trouble..." Wang Xuance saw that the shopkeeper's face was beginning to turn pale, so he could only persuade him helplessly: "If you want to eat, just eat well and don't scare others. Do you plan to stay in the City Lord's Mansion from now on?"

"Oh, not really." His Royal Highness the King of Chu waved his hands and said, "I don't eat people."

“Bang!” At this moment, the shopkeeper who had been struggling to hold on finally lost his legs and fell to the ground: “My… My Lord, our shop is a legitimate business, no… no…”

"Pa..." Seeing this, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu could only slap his forehead helplessly: "Well, this is also a case of poor hearing..."

After experiencing this little episode, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu lost interest in continuing to wander around and returned to the City Lord's Mansion early.

The old Taoist priest had been waiting for a long time in the small courtyard where His Royal Highness the King of Chu lived.

"Old Taoist Priest, you're leaving?!" After the old Taoist Priest explained the situation to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, he was a little confused: "Don't... You're already old, why are you still making such a fuss? From Gaochang to Yizhou, the road is full of mountains and rivers, and you're old, it's not appropriate. How about this, you leave the matter to me, and I'll send someone to go." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu meant that he could send his own death squad to go, as it had been nearly three months since the battle of Qianquan City, and the shadow assassins under his command had almost recovered.

It's perfect for running errands or something like that.

"Your Highness, there are some things that I must do myself." Upon hearing this, the old Taoist patted His Highness the King of Chu on the shoulder and said, "Only then will I feel at ease."

“Old Heavenly Master…” His Royal Highness the King of Chu pursed his lips after hearing this: “But whenever I think of how you have been running around and working so hard for me, I can never let it go…”
