Chapter 639
Li Ke's westward tour has become an established fact. Whether it is to worship the tomb of the ancestors of the Li family on behalf of Li Shimin, to deter Tubo, or to suppress the clan of Longyou, these are all things that must be done, let alone Li Ke.

After the matter was settled, Li Ke went to the Hongwen Museum first. As an elder brother, he wanted to care about the studies of his brothers. More importantly, Li Ke was going to visit Su Dingfang's son Su Qingjie on the way, and also to express his gratitude to the generals under his command. concern.

The Hongwen Hall is within the East Palace, so it is very convenient for Li Ke to go to the Hongwen Hall. This person is Qinling, Tubo's envoy.

A few days ago, Qin Ling came to Datang with Princess Langri Linzhi of the Eastern Monarch of Tubo, and was placed in the Hongwen Museum by Li Ke.If it wasn't for the chance meeting today, Li Ke would have almost forgotten that there is such a person in the East Palace.

When Li Ke came to the gate of the Hongwen Museum, Qin Ling was passing by with some books in his arms. At this time, Qin Ling had already removed the clothes of the Tubo people and put on the Confucian shirts of the Tang people. Spread it out and tie it with a hair crown, and Qinling was originally born in a more handsome place than ordinary Tubo people. If Li Ke didn't know Qinling's appearance, I'm afraid he would have regarded him as the son of some hero.

"Foreign minister Qinling pays homage to the crown prince." Seeing Li Ke standing in front of him, Qinling hurriedly embraced the book, and saluted Li Ke.

Li Ke did not expect to meet Qin Ling as soon as he entered the door. Li Ke raised his hand and smiled at Qin Ling: "There is no need to be polite, get up quickly."

"Thank you, Prince." Qin Ling thanked him and stood up.

After Qin Ling got up, Li Ke asked, "Where are you going?"

Qin Ling replied truthfully: "Master Gai gave a lecture today, and the ministers helped Master Gai move the books over there."

Li Ke asked: "Master Gai, are you talking about Gai Wenda, Xindu, or Gai Wenyi, Hengshui?"

There are two masters in the Hongwen Museum. One is Gai Wenda, one of the eighteen scholars of the Tang Dynasty, who is known as a great Confucianist in the world, and the other is Gai Wenda's younger brother of the same clan. Dr. Zi's Gai Wenyi, so Li Ke asked this question.

Qin Ling replied: "Today the one teaching in the library is Master Gai Wenda."

Li Ke then asked: "Didn't Gai Wenda take leave and return to his hometown? Why is he still in the Hongwen Museum?"

A few days ago, Gai Wenda had an accident at home and asked for leave to return to his hometown. Li Ke still had some impressions of this matter. Today he learned that Gai Wenda was already giving lectures, so he asked Qinling about it.

Qin Ling replied: "Master Gai asked for leave to go back to Jizhou to visit relatives, and he came back yesterday."

Hearing Qin Ling's words, Li Ke couldn't help showing a strange look on his face. Gai Wenda visited his relatives half a month ago. Qin Ling only came to Chang'an at that time, so he shouldn't know about it. Li Ke just asked casually. But he didn't expect Qin Ling to know so clearly.

Out of curiosity, Li Ke asked again: "Then do you know what book, chapter, and lecture Master Gai is talking about today?"

Qin Ling thought for a while, and replied: "Today Master Gai is talking about "The Biography of Gu Liang". It was the eighth year of Duke Xi, but the content is too obscure, and foreign ministers can't understand it."

If Qinling knew Gai Wenda, maybe it was because he was understanding and sociable, which was due to his temperament. Then he knew He "Gu Liang Biography" and even "Eight Years of Duke Xi", which is enough to show that he was a fool. kung fu.

Gai Wenda was a disciple of Liu Zhuo, a former Hongru scholar of the Sui Dynasty. He has read a lot of books, especially "Three Biography of Spring and Autumn", and "Biography of Gu Liang" is one of his masters. At this time, Li Ke also understood that Qinling can After his father Lu Dongzan, he took control of Tubo power and once overwhelmed the Zanpu clan not only because of his birth and family background, but in terms of his ability, he was by no means weaker than anyone else.

Li Ke said with a smile: "My Tang classics are like this. It is hard to understand at first, but if you can understand the deep meaning, you can get something. "Gu Liang Zhuan" said a lot about the way of the king's etiquette, It's good for you to listen at your age."

For Qinling, the future God of War in Tubo, Li Ke arranged for him to go to Hongwen Museum with the intention of asking him to study literature. In Li Ke's view, he was not worried that Tubo would have ten well-educated Kong Yingdas, but what he was worried about was that Tubo would have Qin Ling is famous and handsome.

However, although Qin Ling is a caring person, he will take care of the things around him, but he is obviously not interested in Li Ke's kindness, or in learning various classics of the Tang Dynasty.

Qin Ling suddenly remembered something, and asked Li Ke: "The foreign minister heard that someone in the palace mentioned that the prince will go to Hexi for a tour in the near future. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

Li Ke said: "That's right, my palace is going to the northwest to worship the ancestors under the order of my father, and I will leave soon."

Hearing this, Qin Ling quickly and slowly put down the book he was holding in his arms, and bowed to Li Ke: "I wonder if the prince can bring his foreign ministers with him on this trip."

Li Ke listened to Qin Ling's words and asked, "You want to go to Hexi too?"

Qinling replied: "The foreign minister has heard about the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, but he has never been out of Chang'an. The crown prince is going to Hexi to worship the ancestors, and naturally there will be no shortage of servants around him. If the crown prince does not dislike it, the foreign minister is willing to do it for you. The prince is a pawn, running around for the prince."

Li Ke looked at Qin Ling's earnest appearance, and said with a smile: "Why, but I've been bored in the palace these days, and want to go out for a walk?"

Li Ke's trip to the west this time is to worship his ancestors, so naturally he has to bring his family with him, but Wu Meiniang is pregnant, so she can't travel far, and the one who can accompany Li Ke is the side concubine Langri Linzhi.Langri Linzhi's accompanying tour to the west has almost been finalized, as for taking another Qinling, it is just a matter of raising hands, and he is not in a hurry to refuse.

Qin Ling replied: "The foreign minister is a rough man, and he really doesn't know much. It's okay to do some rough physical work in the Hongwen Museum, but the study of classics is really not my specialty, and it is very boring. If there is a chance, I will naturally do it." I want to go out and have a look.”

Li Ke could understand what Qin Ling said. Young people, after all, have a short heart. In addition, Qin Ling is from Tubo, so he is used to being loose. Living in the East Palace for a long time is indeed difficult for him.

During this period of time, Li Ke's affection for Qin Ling was definitely the majority, and he even admired this unique Tubo boy. However, Li Ke really fell in love with him.

Li Ke asked Qin Ling, "Have you ever worshiped Master in Tubo?"

Qin Ling didn't know why Li Ke would suddenly ask this question, at first he thought that Li Ke might want to know more about him, so he replied: "The foreign minister did not have a teacher in Tubo, but just learned from my father. "

When Li Ke heard Qinling's words, a smile appeared on his face. Li Ke said to Qinling: "In our Tang Dynasty, it is not easy for young people to travel far. If they want to travel far, they mostly follow close relatives or Teacher, how about this, you have never worshiped the master before, so you worship me as your teacher today, how about being my disciple?"
