Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 525 Reaction

At dusk, on the road leading to Sun Moon Lake Zhuangzi, a carriage was galloping. Occasionally, someone in the carriage gave a low shout, and the driver immediately waved a long whip to drive the horses to speed up.

It has been two or three years since the arrival of Li Shan has brought about great changes in the surrounding environment. The children of aristocratic families and dignitaries come to Dongshan Temple to offer incense. The first and deepest impression is this road, which is filled with fine stones. , It does not turn mud when it rains, and it does not slip when it snows.

But at such a high speed, Ling Jing in the carriage will inevitably feel dizzy. He has been in Tiance Mansion today, and he only found out about Li Shan's canonization as the county king an hour ago, and he was rushed back by Qin Wang Li Shimin.

In the eyes of many, many people, Li Shan was granted the official membership of the clan, which is a generous gift from a sage. If Li Shan hadn't rescued Princess Pingyang last year, even if he made great achievements again and again, it would be difficult to be included in the clan.

In this era, ordinary rural clans or poor families, or even grassroots, often raise their lintels in this way after they have a certain status, but they usually cling to them. Elien came to raise the lintel.

The Li and Tang royal families are generally bestowed, Du Fuwei is no more than a worthless people, Li Shiji's family is rich, but they are no more than a powerful family in the countryside, even Luo Yi and Hu Dayen are just ordinary nobles.

But in the eyes of insiders like Ling Jing and Li Shimin, Li Shan is different.

The great-grandfather Shen Guogong Li Mu has gone through four dynasties, and his reputation is quite high. His father and grandparents have been bestowed with titles, and the family is full of talents. If it is not for Li Jincai's bad deeds, it has been passed down for four generations. A prominent family like the Liu family in Xie County is similar.

Li Shimin even made up his mind that when things come to fruition in the future, he will ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, and he will regain the title of duke of the Kingdom of Shen, to vent his anger on Li Shan.

Ling Jing didn't know how Li Shan would react, let alone how Zhu's would react, so he hurried back to Zhuangzi.

"Duke Ling is back."

The young man who was guarding the entrance of the village greeted him from afar, and reined in his horse, which slowed down, "I can have a delicious meal tonight, and just now Uncle Qi asked someone to buy twenty sheep!"

Ling Jing lifted the curtain of the car, frowned and asked, "Is it Zhu Wei's order?"

"Yes."

"Hui Ren is back?"

"Lang Jun came back for a while, and entered the city again in the afternoon."

After Ling Jing was silent for a while, he got out of the carriage and walked into the villa. From a distance, he saw the commotion around Li's house. When he walked closer, he could hear the congratulations of the women through the wall, and occasionally he could hear Mrs. Zhu speaking... Mrs. Zhu Talking is like cutting a carrot with a knife, very crisp and easy to distinguish.

Maybe it's because I thought badly?

Ling Jing was a little puzzled, thought for a while and went to the opposite door, went straight home, and asked a few words casually, both daughters-in-law looked envious and envious, talking about Zhu's with elation.

In fact, Ling Jing was really wrong. When Zhu was sent to Lingnan, he happened to meet Li Dewu who was exiled. In Lingnan, it is rare to see children from aristocratic families... But after going through all this, Zhu's disgust and hatred for Li Dewu is unbearable. Yan Biao, she only cares about her son now.

For the Zhu family, his son was included in the clan and canonized as the county king, which meant that even if his life experience was revealed to the world in the future, at least his life would not be in danger, and his career would not be hindered too much.

As for the Li family... Li Jincai was convicted of treason, and the whole family died. It would be good if he didn't drag his son down, and he couldn't give any help.

"Mr. Ling."

"Mistress Zhu." Ling Jing was surprised that Mrs. Zhu came to the door suddenly, and said with a smile, "I just found out, congratulations."

Mrs. Zhu said with a chuckle: "Da Lang will eventually have today, and I must thank you for your help."

I really didn't do much to help... Ling Jing blushed a little, and if it wasn't for his thick skin, he would ooze out. After pondering for a moment, he said in a low voice: "Miss Zhu, but don't worry, Huairen is favored by His Majesty, and there is Princess Pingyang." For the sake of aid, there will be no hindrance in the future."

Mrs. Zhu knew that Ling Jing was referring to Mrs. Wenxi and Pei, and this seemingly huge roadblock two or three years ago had been kicked away unknowingly.

After chatting vaguely for a few words, Mrs. Zhu brought up the business with a smile, "Da Lang canonized the county king, and the plaque on the house in Yanshoufang should be changed..."

Ling Jing stroked his beard and nodded with a smile. He has been famous in Shandong for many years, and he was famous for calligraphy when he was young.

Mrs. Zhu took a breath and continued, "I heard from Dalang that there is a scholar in the Hongwen Museum who is famous for his calligraphy..."

The smile on Ling Jing's face was a little stiff, and he pondered for a moment, then suddenly changed the topic, "What do you think Huai Renzuo thinks when he is included in the clan and canonized as the county king?"

Mrs. Zhu blinked, "Naturally, I was overjoyed, and even asked someone to take the money to buy sheep."

Regarding this, Li Shan was only worried that Mrs. Zhu couldn't think about it. He himself didn't care, very indifferent.

In the previous life, Li Shan didn't have any sense of belonging to the so-called family, and in this life it's about the same... Well, because of Li Jincai, almost all the clan members were killed.

What's more, for those who travel through, counting from the Tang Dynasty onwards in history, there are Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there are also Liao, Jin, Mengyuan, and then the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and the blood is mixed... In this era, just find a surname Li's, maybe they are Li Shan's ancestors for several generations.

"Didn't say anything?"

Mrs. Zhu thought for a while, "When I first returned home, I looked a little weird...but I only said that Your Majesty is very kind."

Ling Jing didn't laugh at this moment, he and Li Shimin both had the same judgment on this, His Majesty took Li Shan as the blame... Based on his understanding of Li Shan, this fellow probably jumped up in anger.

Ling Jing asked a few more questions, and after Mrs. Zhu answered one by one, she changed the subject, "That Hongwenguan..."

"But Yu Boshi?" Ling Jing felt helpless, but Yu Shinan's calligraphy was indeed better than his own.

Yu Shinan is a descendant of a famous family, quiet and few desires. He successively studied under Gu Yewang and Xu Ling's family, and later worshiped Sun Zhiyong, the seventh generation of Wang Xizhi, as a poem. He won the true biography of the king and the king.

Therefore, Ling Jing was the first to think of this person. Yu Shinan successively served as an official in Yu Wenhuaji and Dou Jiande.

Mrs. Zhu hesitated for a while, then shook her head and said, "At the beginning of last year, Da Lang once asked him for a book, I remember his surname is Chu."

"Chu Ximing?" Ling Jing frowned. Chu Liang, who is also an [-]th bachelor, is also good at calligraphy, and he made good friends with Yu Shinan, Ouyang Xun, Xu Ling, Gu Yewang and other famous people who were good at calligraphy in his early years.

After hesitating for a while, Ling Jing shook his head and said: "Scholar Chu is nearly [-] years old, and he will be bedridden after the end of the year, so it is difficult to hold a pen..."

"That's not right." Mrs. Zhu said in surprise, "Da Lang said that the man is not over thirty."

"what?"

"Da Lang praised his unique calligraphy, which will be passed down to later generations, and it will not be weaker than Ouyang and Yugong."

Ling Jing's face changed slightly, "Huai Ren is talking about Chu Suiliang, the eldest son of Bachelor Chu..."

"That's right, that's the person. Huairen has been in a hurry for the past two days and will be leaving the next day. Please Mr. Ling."

Ling Jing complied, and sent Mrs. Zhu out with a smile. He had a strange look on his face. He remembered that at the last banquet last year, His Royal Highness Qin Wang praised Chu Suiliang for his unique calligraphy. When he and Yu Shiji are as famous in the world, Yu Shiji also agrees with this statement.

That's natural, Ouyang Xun, Yu Shiji, Chu Suiliang and later Xue Ji are called the "Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty".

It was because of this incident at the end of last year that Chu Suiliang became famous, but Li Shan asked Chu Suiliang for his letter at the beginning of last year.

Ling Jing works in calligraphy, so he doesn't dare to compare with Ouyang Xun's generation, but he has some good eyesight... I can't even tell, your calligraphy is like a dog crawling, but you can actually tell the good from the bad?
