Fu Tang

Chapter 287

Shi Xueting was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. To be honest, he never thought in his life that he would be misunderstood and jealous by Li Congjia.

The most important thing is that if this matter is not investigated clearly, he probably won't be able to wash away the dirty water.

Shi Xueting explained: "I really don't know how that woman appeared in my room, but I can check..."

Li Congjia was furious: "You don't know? How dare you say that you don't know who entered your house? Shi Xueting, are you going to the grave to burn newspapers to fool ghosts?"

Shi Xueting wanted to hold Li Congjia's hand to explain, but he retracted his hand half way out, he was worried that it would make Li Congjia even more angry.

At this time, Shi Xueting was probably in a shrinking appearance that they hadn't seen for more than ten years. Li Congjia was indeed a little angry at first, but of course, he might not have the idea of ​​making a fuss after the opportunity. Being calm and unwavering makes people more attached to each other. It is said that it is true to be ordinary, but the days between two people are really full of daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.

It's just that most of the anger in his heart was wiped out with Shi Xueting's action. Seeing Shi Xueting's rare clumsy tongue, Li Congjia instinctively felt that maybe he really didn't know about this matter.

Originally, he thought that Shi Xueting found some good seedlings and wanted to take her as an apprentice, so he lived in the National Teacher's Mansion, but if even Shi Xueting didn't know where she came from and why she lived in, then this matter I'm afraid it's not easy.

Li Congjia was thinking about this, but he didn't want to change his color immediately, so he continued to sit there with a cold face, waiting for Shi Xueting to calm down and explain.

However, Shi Xueting was already a little dazed at this time, and his mind didn't turn. After being together for so many years, Li Congjia had never lost his temper with him. ...he really can't explain it.

Li Congjia waited for a long time but didn't wait for the next sentence, so he couldn't help saying angrily: "Then go and check it quickly, do you want me to go in person?!"

How can a person who is usually very smart turn into a log when encountering things!

Shi Xueting breathed a sigh of relief immediately. He knew that the other party didn't really refuse to listen to any explanation when he heard Li Congjia say this. He came back rationally and became more courageous. He directly leaned over and kissed Li Congjia and said, "Don't worry, this matter There must be an explanation."

Shi Xueting was also furious, because he always likes to be quiet, and there are not many people in the National Teacher's Mansion, so it is easy to investigate this matter, and he also decided that as long as it is found out who is negligent, he will not let it go easily!

If it's anything else, it's okay, a little lady suddenly appeared in his room, how could she get in if no one specifically let her in?

Li Congjia snorted coldly, and wiped his face by the way, looking very disdainful, Shi Xueting wanted to laugh, of course he would never dare to laugh, if he dared to laugh now, Li Congjia dared not let him go to the dragon bed!

Just when Shi Xueting was about to go out to investigate, Chunsheng cautiously reported outside: "Your Majesty, Yang Honglu and his wife came to plead guilty."

Li Congjia and Shi Xueting looked at each other, a little confused about what kind of play Yang Xin was playing, but they couldn't get out since everyone was at the door, so the two adjusted their moods.

Quarrels belong to quarrels, and you still have to put on a show in front of the children. Anyway, you can't let Yang Xin see that the emperor's "empress" is at odds.

After Yang Xin and Tian Wuniang came in, they knelt on the ground. Tian Wuniang didn't speak, but Yang Xin kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty is guilty, please punish me!"

Li Congjia asked in surprise, "What did you do? Why are you still guilty?"

Yang Xin said very succinctly: "Today...the little lady in the master's room...was...brought in by the minister. I didn't notice it for a while, so..." He didn't continue talking here, just kowtowed and said : "This matter has nothing to do with the master, the subject is guilty."

After hearing this, Li Congjia frowned and said, "You really have a deep relationship between master and apprentice."

Shi Xueting began to scold Yang Xin in his heart, no matter whether this matter is true or not, he can't come to plead guilty at this time, Li Congjia's attitude seems to be relaxed and not so angry, you brat, don't you add fuel to the fire?

However, no one expected that Li Congjia's temper would come and go quickly. Yang Xin returned to the National Teacher's Mansion and saw that the little lady was tied up. Tian Wuniang was planning to enter the palace to plead guilty. Hurry up and explain, if his master and father really turn against each other, his crime will be serious.

Yang Xin also heard Li Congjia's dissatisfaction, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, I can explain it, really."

Li Congjia glanced at Shi Xueting, he was sure that the two were master and apprentice, and his reaction was exactly the same.

However, Yang Xin is also a member of the court, even if Li Congjia gets angry, he can't just throw him out, that is to say, he doesn't have to give Yang Xin face now, but he has to give Honglu Temple minister face!

Otherwise, if he kicks people out, the cabinet will probably come to ask again after getting the news.

Li Congjia raised his chin and said, "Okay, explain."

Yang Xin organized his language before saying: "Actually, according to her, that little lady is the princess of Kara Khanate."

Li Congjia frowned: "It is said?"

Yang Xin smiled wryly: "It's just that there is no evidence. I have asked someone to investigate."

"Then why did she appear in the National Teacher's Mansion? Just arrange it in the posthouse." Shi Xueting couldn't help it. He suspected that Yang Xin had taken a fancy to the little lady and brought her back. He actually didn't care much about the apprentice. love life, it's just...is there such a thing as cheating on Master?

Yang Xin quickly said: "It is true that she was allowed to live in the post house before, but she said that because of her identity, the Ghazna envoys and Saman envoys who were also in the post house plotted against her. I think she is pitiful. , just... took her back to the National Teacher's Mansion..."

Halfway through Yang Xin's speech, Tian Wuniang stopped her and said, "Let me tell you, Your Majesty, this matter is actually my fault. I... I was soft-hearted for a while and saw that her orphan girl was pitiful, so I brought her back to the country." Master's mansion, I just didn't expect...she actually broke into Master's room, all mistakes are my fault, please don't blame Master or Eleven Lang, Your Majesty."

Li Congjia... Li Congjia didn't know what to say anymore, but he still turned his head to look at Shi Xueting, and Shi Xueting said knowingly: "I will investigate the people in the National Teacher's Office."

It's really embarrassing this time, there are people who dare to steal and play tricks under my nose, I really feel sorry for my frightened heart today if I don't deal with them.

Li Congjia didn't let Yang Xin and the others get up. It's not easy to punish this matter. After all, it's not a particularly serious mistake, so just let them kneel down a little longer.

However, he was still a little puzzled: "Since the Saman envoy and the Ghazna envoy are both present, the identity of that little lady is still uncertain?"

Yang Xin said with a wry smile: "The envoys of Ghazna and Saman said she was deceiving people, but... I think she may not be deceiving people. Although she has no identity certificate, her speech and body accessories are quite inappropriate. The vulgar style is not affordable for ordinary people, and its style is indeed from Islam, and she can also pray, so her identity as a Muslim is undoubted."

Li Congjia was thoughtful: "If she is really the princess of Kara Khanate, how did she get to Datang? What is she doing here?"

Shi Xueting said: "I'll investigate this matter, and I will definitely give you an explanation."

Li Congjia snorted and didn't say anything else. Although this matter was a misunderstanding and it seemed wrong for him to lose his temper, it would blow everyone up, okay?

If only a little lady appeared in the National Teacher's Mansion, he might calm down and ask what's going on, but this one... went directly into Shi Xueting's bedroom, I can't bear it!

Speaking of it, Shi Xueting was unlucky. Li Congjia rarely went to the National Teacher's Mansion to look for him. After all, there were many things. Most of the time, Shi Xueting was with him in the palace. The result was so small. Today Li Congjia ran to the National Teacher's Mansion on a whim I went to look for him, but I couldn't find Shi Xueting, but I saw a little lady in Shi Xueting's room, and I was furious on the spot.

Li Congjia looked down at Yang Xin and Tian Wuniang and said, "Get up, do what you should do."

Yang Xin and Tian Wuniang took a sneak look at Li Congjia's face, and found that Li Congjia didn't seem to be very angry anymore, and they were relieved. As soon as the two of them stood up, they heard Shi Xueting speak.

Shi Xueting said: "Find a place and prepare to move out."

Yang Xin's knees softened and he knelt down again. This...is he kicked out?

Shi Xueting gave a rare explanation: "It's time for you to start a family."

Because Yang Xin was his apprentice before, he could also live in the National Teacher's Mansion, but as the two of them spread out, it is actually not suitable to live in the National Teacher's Mansion, after all, they are not father and son.

Tian Wuniang pulled her husband up and responded, "We will do it as soon as possible."

In fact, she and Yang Xin knew that one day they would move out and have their own mansion, but it is convenient to live in the National Teacher's Mansion. After all, the National Teacher's Mansion is so big, and Shi Xueting is not at home for three days. It is said that Yang Xin and Tian Wuniang's territory is not too much.

Now that Chang'an is very expensive, it is basically impossible to rely on the couple for such a large mansion.

Of course, judging by Yang Xin's current level, it is impossible to build such a big mansion.

Yang Xin also knew that this incident probably touched the master's bottom line. He knelt down just now because he was worried that the master would be angry and want to sever the master-student relationship with him. Now it seems that he is just letting him go out to live by himself.

After Yang Xin and Tian Wuniang withdrew, Li Congjia turned to look at Shi Xueting, and Shi Xueting said, "I was too tolerant of them."

He managed the intelligence department in an orderly manner, but there was such a big loophole in the family, which made him a little embarrassed.

Li Congjia walked over and hugged him and said softly, "Don't take it to heart, I was out of breath just now."

It was because of anger that he ignored the little lady's obvious Turkic appearance. However, it is not that there are no Turkic descendants in Datang, so this does not explain anything.

Shi Xueting kissed him, of course he wouldn't mind Li Congjia being angry, what he was worried about was that Li Congjia wouldn't listen to his explanation, if Li Congjia didn't get angry or jealous when something like this happened, then he would really end up.

Li Congjia touched his bald head and said, "Go and find out the identity of that little lady, I think there is something wrong with it."

Shi Xueting responded, and heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that this turmoil is indeed over.

If you want to know the identity of the little lady, you have to do both, especially why you want to go to his bedroom!

In fact, Li Congjia also wants to know, what is this person who means Princess Karakhan thinking?Could it be that she was actually a spy?

It's just that both Li Congjia and Shi Xueting thought a lot about this matter. After interrogation, the girl's name was Asuma.

Asuma escaped from the Kara Khanate because her father Musa wanted to marry her to Vladimir, the current Grand Duke of Kievan Rus, but Vladimir was young and had died for three terms just now. His wife is dead, and it is said that he is very cruel.

Asuma is naturally unwilling to marry Vladimir, but the status of women in the Tang Dynasty is not low and they must obey the orders of their parents, let alone the little girl of Islam. Whoever Musa asked her to marry, she will marry who to marry.

Assuma couldn't resist, so she just found an opportunity to escape, but the current geographical location of the Kara Khanate... the surrounding area is full of hostile countries, those federal states... On the surface, it seems to be surrendered to the Kara Khanate, but in fact It is false to say that there is no hatred for the Kara Khanate, after all, it was threatened to sign an unequal treaty.Assuma had nowhere to go even if she fled.

She chose and chose Datang, the reason is very simple, Datang has a large land, and it is not difficult for her as a little lady to commit herself.

But after leaving the good life, she could hardly hold on alone, so she could only reveal her identity and was taken to Chang'an.

Li Congjia was speechless after hearing such bloody reasoning, and asked after a while, "Then what is she going to your bedroom for?"

Li Congjia was actually not very interested in Asuma's identity. Women in the Kara Khanate, even princesses, didn't have much status. It was basically impossible to expect her to do anything.

Shi Xueting said with a wry smile: "She went to my bedroom, but the target was you."

Li Congjia froze for a moment: "What?"

Shi Xueting explained: "After Asuma entered the National Teacher's Mansion, she saw the grandeur of the National Teacher's Mansion and thought it was a royal palace, so she tried every means to get to my bedroom, trying to seduce the emperor and become your concubine. The rest of her life will be settled, oh, she actually did quite enough homework before she came, at least she knows that there are only two people in your harem."

It's just too mentally retarded, even the imperial palace can be confused with the National Teacher's Mansion.

After hearing this, Li Congjia expressed sympathy: "Has she misunderstood the Imperial Palace as a royal palace? How shabby is the royal palace of the Kara Khanate?"

Shi Xueting thought about it. After all, Asuma is the princess of the Kara Khanate. She grew up in the palace, and her living standard must be second to none in the Kara Khanate. Seeing the National Teacher’s Mansion like this, she thought she was in the palace. It can be seen The royal palace of the Kara Khanate may be similar to that of the State Teacher's Mansion, or not as good.

Shi Xueting asked: "Asuma's identity should be unmistakable, how do you plan to deal with her?"

Li Congjia frowned: "How do I know?"

Li Congjia really wanted to send someone to send her back, but when he thought that this flower-like girl would marry Vladimir after being sent back, and that she might become Vladimir's fourth wife to die, he felt a little bit Could not bear.

It's just that it's useless to keep this girl. The people of the Kara Khanate raised her for nothing, and Li Congjia thought it was a waste of food.

As for instigating against Asuma and letting her go back to be a spy, Li Congjia never thought about it at all. Do you really think that all the women in the world are tough girls from the Tang Dynasty?

The women of the Kara Khanate... have been like dodders since childhood.

"First...let her stay in the post house, don't let her run around, watch it, let me think again."

Li Congjia had some headaches. Seeing him like this, Shi Xueting knew that his lover was softhearted and didn't want to send that princess back, so he said, "Then this news... shall I block it first?"

Li Congjia responded, and then put this matter aside for the first time, and started to solve other things, such as the problem of the International College.

The International College has begun to take shape after preparations. Of course, the most important thing is that the textbooks have been compiled. Li Congjia looked at it and admired the brainwashing skills of Fan Zhi and others.

And the problems of the students were almost solved—the eldest son Yuchi Dharma of Yuchi Sula in Khotan was to be sent, the eldest son of King Funan was to be sent, the eldest daughter of the king of Queen Kingdom was to be sent, and there were other small countries. There are probably more than 20 students in this group, and several of them are even princes from member states of the Karakhan Federation.

These countries were unable to defeat the Kara Khanate and were forced to sign unequal treaties, but they did not dare to offend Datang, so they simply sent their sons there as a hostage. This world is not peaceful, Datang seems to be very prosperous, if these countries are destroyed, at least there will be a prince staying in Datang, who can have a chance to make a comeback.

Li Congjia's requirements for students are not as strict as other colleges, and he accepts them if they want to send them.

Regarding the loose conditions of the International College, there is no opinion within the college—most of these students have read the textbooks of the International College. There is probably no other practical knowledge for writing poems and songs.

As for whether these princes will be protested if they are abolished, Li Congjia doesn't think so much now. Anyway, if these people send their sons here, it is equivalent to handing them over to Li Congjia. How to educate them is not up to Li Congjia.

Li Congjia chose an auspicious day as the time for the entrance ceremony of the new students of the International College. In order to show the importance he attaches to the International College, Li Congjia must go to attend.

As one of the students, Oleg was somewhat excited, especially after seeing that the teachers who taught them were no different from those who taught other colleges, he was somewhat relieved.

The only regret is probably that the gentlemen of the Military Academy will not come to teach them. Regarding this, Oleg even found a time to ask Shi Xueting: "Dear His Royal Highness, if we learn well enough, will there be a chance?" Enter another academy?"

Shi Xueting raised his eyebrows and did not correct Oleg's address. Anyway, the first thing they need to learn when they enter the academy is Datang's etiquette, but he still kindly replied: "If you can master all the knowledge, it should be possible. Yes, but this will not be decided until His Majesty discusses it with the gentlemen of the academy."

Oleg thanked him very happily. Although Shi Xueting didn't say he was dead, it's good to have hope, and there are many of them. Just because he can see the national teacher standing behind the emperor every time he sees him, he Knowing that this national teacher is very favored by the emperor, what he said must be somewhat accurate.

Seeing that he was happy, Shi Xueting smiled slightly, but in fact, it doesn't matter even if he said yes for sure.

After all, as I said before, Oleg and the others must first learn the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty. After learning the etiquette, they must learn the customs and customs of the Tang Dynasty and some simple history. After learning all these, there is also genealogy.

Not to mention anything else, genealogy is a thing that runs through the entire teenage years of the noble children of the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that from the beginning of learning calligraphy, they began to slowly come into contact with genealogy. Although the family has been suppressed by Li Congjia now, but It doesn't mean there isn't one.

Even the people of the Tang Dynasty may not be able to figure out the relationship network of these aristocratic families. These foreign princes... Shi Xueting can only sympathize with their future lives.

The entrance ceremony can be said to be very successful, and the guests and hosts had a good time. During this process, Wei Renpu and others were pleased to find that the relationship between the crown prince and the emperor had returned to the past. To be exact, the crown prince stopped being awkward, and the emperor... the emperor was still the same.

But Li Congjia was very calm, he was just being himself, he knew how to treat his son, how to treat the prince, as for Li Zhongyu's thoughts... After all, he was still young, in the second stage of middle school, it would be abnormal not to suffer from the second-grade illness.

It's just that he didn't think that his son's secondary illness might not be cured. On the way back, Li Zhongyu asked, "Father, I heard that the princess of the Kara Khanate... is in the posthouse?"

Li Congjia was a little surprised why he brought up this matter, but still nodded and said, "That's right."

Li Zhongyu rubbed his palms against his trousers, and asked nervously, "Then...then daddy is going to send Asuma back?"

Li Congjia shook his head, and then realized: "How do you know the name of Princess Karakhan?"

After Shi Xueting asked the name of the princess of the Kara Khanate, she kept it a secret and did not reveal anything. She only told Li Congjia, and Tao Yun might not even know about it. How did Li Zhongyu know?

Li Zhongyu was stunned for a moment, and found that he accidentally slipped his mouth, he could not help but smile embarrassedly, bowed his head and stopped talking.

Li Congjia felt something was wrong, and couldn't help asking: "Have you seen her?"

Li Zhongyu knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, even if he denied it now, when his father asked the national teacher later, he would know everything, so he nodded and said: "Yes, I have been there."

Li Congjia had a bad premonition in his heart: "What are you doing to meet her?"

Li Zhongyu said heartily: "Father... I... I... I like that princess, I don't know... can I..."

Li Congjia wanted to sigh when he heard that, just now he had a premonition, and now Li Zhongyu said it directly, which gave him quite a headache.

He really never expected that his son is actually a big radish. Thanks to Li Zhongyu's kindness to the princess before marriage, he thought that Li Zhongyu was also a consistent person, but he didn't expect his true colors to be revealed after marriage.

But... Li Zhongyu is really Li Yu's son, and Li Yu... It can be seen from his cheating with his sister-in-law that he is not a man of integrity. Thinking about it this way, it's not surprising.

Li Congjia asked: "There are so many beautiful ladies in the Tang Dynasty, why...why did you fall in love with her?"

Li Zhongyu was a little embarrassed: "I... When I saw her for the first time, I wanted to protect her and not let her suffer any more. Dad, anyway, Musa may not know that her daughter has arrived in Datang, so let her hide her name, no Is it resolved?"

If it was any other young lady, Li Zhongyu could get the East Palace without going through Li Congjia. However, Asuma is the princess of the Kara Khanate and is still registered with Li Congjia. Of course, he has to ask Li Congjia for instructions.

Li Congjia was a bit ridiculous at this time, Assuma tried all her best to seduce him, but failed, but instead seduced his son, what's the matter.

However, Li Congjia didn't want to reject Li Zhongyu too forcefully. In fact, this is really not a big deal, and maybe Asuma himself is very willing.

He thought for a while and said: "You wait for a while, I will ask the national teacher to check again, and if there is no problem with this Asuma, you can take her back, but let me explain first, is she in the East Palace? Might be famous."

Li Zhongyu was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you dad for your kindness!"

When Li Congjia saw that Li Zhongyu didn't care about Asuma's status at all, he knew it in his heart. If it was true love, Li Zhongyu would definitely not be willing to let Asuma be wronged. Now it seems that he may have taken a fancy to this Turk Female appearance and submissive character.

This is really nothing, as long as there is nothing wrong with Asuma itself, but Li Congjia still reminded: "You can love, but don't indulge, and don't embarrass the princess, and don't be dazed, otherwise... I will take action personally at that time." Clean her up, understand?"

Li Zhongyu nodded and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, my son knows it well."

Li Congjia thought it was the same, and he wouldn't be fascinated by a dodder. Speaking of which, Li Zhongyu really didn't let him worry about it since he was a child.

But soon, he was slapped in the face.

Three days later, Liu Yi ran over in a panic and said, "Your Majesty, the crown prince, together with King Wenxin, King Qichang, the prince of Shu, the son of Duke Qin, and the youngest son of Fan Zhuguo, beat up several princes from the International Academy." !"

Li Congjia: What is it?
