Li Chengqian rushed along the way, and came outside Luoyang City without even entering the city, so he took his people to Song County directly.

When Li Chengqian and other cavalrymen came to Luoyang, there were naturally people in Luoyang City who knew about it.

When Li Zhi heard that Zhou Jin led the cavalry from the East Palace to Songxian to take office, he hurriedly walked to the yard where Li Shimin lived.

"Your Highness King Jin, Your Majesty is having something to do now, so you might as well sit here first!" A voice came from the corridor.

Li Zhi was about to sue Li Chengqian and ignored him, but he looked up and saw the little palace maid serving Wu Cairen, standing in the corridor to look at him.

Knowing that Wu Cairen had something to ask him for something, he walked down the corridor.

The impression of Wu Cairen Li Zhi was very complicated. He knew clearly that Wu Cairen was Li Shimin's concubine. He should not have any inappropriate thoughts, but he could not help but want to approach her.

Moreover, this Wu Cai man is quite strategic and can help him when encountering problems. Last time, he summoned Changsun Wuji and was guided by Wu Cai to guide him.

Li Zhi thought about these things and walked down the corridor, and heard the palace maid whisper: "Your Majesty is angry about the Prince's coming down to Luoyang, so don't go over and find it uncomfortable."

When Li Zhi heard this, he knew that Li Chengqian had made his own decision this time and came to Luoyang to make Li Shimin unhappy.

I was delighted that I was just telling my father about Zhou Jin to increase Li Shimin's disgust with Li Chengqian. However, when Li Shimin was angry and hesitant, I wanted to discuss it with Wu Cairen.

"I'll go to the side hall, you go and invite Wu Cairen." Li Zhi said and walked into the side room.

The palace maid nodded and turned around and left.

At a moment, Wu Cairen walked in lightly.

When Li Zhi saw Wu Cairen, he said happily: "Brother is becoming more and more bold and arrogant. Zhou Jin is not favored by his father because he is short and clown. The eldest brother has repeatedly praised him. Now he has sent him a group of cavalry to escort him to Songxian.

You said if I told my father about this, how angry he would be!"

Looking at Li Zhi who was happy, Wu Cairen frowned slightly, and then smiled and said to Li Zhi: "I heard that there is a big deal outside, so let the ministers outside do this."

"Why?" Li Zhi said inexplicably.

Wu Cairen also had some special feelings for Li Zhi. Seeing Li Zhi's innocent look at him, he patiently explained to him: "Your Highness King Jin, you and Your Highness are brothers after all. At that time, Prince Donglai was disgusted by Your Majesty because he wanted to kill your prince. If you complain now, even if you defeat Your Highness in the future, if Your Majesty thinks you are also involved, it will definitely be a big trouble for you to enter the Eastern Palace."

Seeing that Wu Cairen explained to him gently like his mother, Li Zhi couldn't help but feel more fond of her and was willing to listen to her.

He nodded obediently and said, "I understand. Even if I don't say this, Dai Zhide will find a way to let his father know."

Wu Cairen nodded, then shook his head and said, "If Dai Zhide is exposed today, you can go to His Majesty to report Dai Zhide and push all the matter of plotting against His Royal Highness to him.

Then ask Your Majesty to punish him and the Dao King severely.”

"Huh?" Li Zhi was puzzled when he heard this.

"Why should I save my elder brother? He was determined to enfeoff me overseas."

"Because such a Dai Zhide will mess up the matter and it will affect you." Wu Cairen said confidently.

Li Zhi felt something when he heard this, and then asked, "You mean that you can't tell your father about Zhou Jin today."

"Yes." After Wu Cairen said that, he smiled at Li Zhi and said, "Your Highness King Jin, I have been here for a long time. If I stay here, others will be suspicious."

As he said that, he bowed a little, then turned around and went out.

Li Zhi kept staring at Wu Cairen's back until she walked out of the hall gate and withdrew her gaze slightly disappointed.

He sat in the side hall for a while, and when he thought that Li Shimin was angry in the main hall, he got up and walked out.

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

"The solar term has entered winter. If construction does not start, this canal will not be dug this year." Li Chengqian looked at the gray forest roads on both sides of Yichuan.

"I would like to go to Song County immediately to collect civil servants and cooperate with Xue Shang people to build the canal." Zhou Jin hurriedly asked for his order.

Li Chengqian sighed and said, "No hurry, Yichuan and the gentry and cults in Songxian all opposed the construction of canals. If you are not careful, you will have a big problem."

Zhou Jin and others felt that they could not understand Li Chengqian when they heard this. They set out from Chang'an in a hurry, but when they arrived at the place, they did not hesitate.

How could they know that in later generations, Li Chengqian was familiar with the four-curse selection of Mao Zedong, and he knew best that the power of the people was powerful, so although he was anxious, he was still prepared to do research and research patiently.

Li Chengqian wanted to do investigation and research but encountered a wall. Xue Rengui, Wang Fangyi, Cheng Wuting, and Pei Xingjian said that they did not agree with Li Chengqian leaving the 300 cavalry.

Do you want to do investigation and research with a brigade of cavalry?

Isn't this nonsense?

Seeing the sunset, Li Chengqian looked at the four people who established the offensive and defensive alliance with annoyed, without any help.

"Tonight we will live in the village in front. You can go to the nearby area to invite a few people who understand the truth, including old, young, male and female. At night, the Lone King will chat with them."

In the end, Li Chengqian said helplessly.

Upon hearing this, the four of them nodded together and said, "I obey the order."

Li Chengqian couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Just enter the village and call me Li Dalang."

"Dalang" was the eldest son of the family in this era.

Zhou Jin looked at the guards from front, back and left and right and said, "Please call him a young master."

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, only the sons of the monarchs could be called Princes. Before the Han Dynasty, the sons of the emperor were also called Princess. The most famous one was Prince Fusu.

In the Tang Dynasty, the standard for the son of the duke was the only one who was called the prince.

Li Chengqian thought about saying that Dalang didn't believe it, so he nodded as a default.

Pei Xingjian and Zhou Jin took people to the nearby village to find people, and Xue Rengui protected Li Chengqian to the entrance of the village.

The hundreds of cavalry were too loud. They were still far from the village. The whole village was alarmed. Women, children and children were hidden. Several old men stood at the entrance of the village, waiting for the uninvited guests.

Xue Rengui stepped forward and bowed to them, "A few old warriors have invited us. We are escorting the young master to visit relatives in Songxian County. It is too late to get here, so we want to find a few houses in the village to stay for one night."

The old man looked at the hundreds of cavalry behind him in embarrassment, not knowing what to say.

Xue Rengui laughed knowingly and said, "We rough men stayed in the tent outside for one night. The main reason is that my son can't stand the wind and frost, as long as he has two houses."

An old man heard this and bowed, "This is easy, please go to my house!"

"Then I'm thankful for Lao Zhan!" Xue Rengui bowed again.

A few old men led them into the most neat yard in the village.

Li Chengqian rode his horse and saw the situation in the low courtyard wall from afar. Although the courtyard was like other families in the village, the house was obviously newly built, and there were more than ten houses in a two-entry yard. It was obvious that the old man's family had a large population.

At this time, no one was at home in the front and back courtyards. Obviously, someone came to spread the news in advance, and the family hid.

Li Chengqian got off at the gate of the yard and followed the old man into the upper room. The house was cleaned fairly clean, with two worn white wooden tables placed reed mats behind them.

After a brief look, Li Chengqian learned that this house was a place specially used for guests. The countryside farmers still had empty houses to prepare guests, so there must be a place different from ordinary farmers.

Li Chengqian sat casually on the reed mat and asked with a smile: "I don't know the old man's surname?"

Seeing that Li Chengqian was a little more harmonious, the old man hurriedly said, "If you say goodbye to the guest, the old man's surname is Song."

"I think the tidying of the old Song Dynasty courtyard is more tidy than other families in the village. I think it's not ordinary people, right?" Li Chengqian continued to talk.

This suddenly came to Old Man Song's heart, and he grinned and said, "Good eyesight. The little old man's family has been better in the past two years because the little old man has a strong son working in the county."

Li Chengqian nodded in his heart and then continued: "Actually, the village I saw along the way is not as strong as Song Laozhan."

When Old Man Song heard this, he opened his eyes wide and said, "The distinguished guest is indeed not an ordinary person, his eyes are more accurate than others."

When Li Chengqian heard this, he thought to himself that this is true, so he continued: "This place is better than other places. I think the people in this village are hardworking and capable."

Old Man Song said with a complacent look on his face: "I didn't see this distinguished guest." After that, without waiting for Li Chengqian to ask again, he showed off where the people are rich and where the people are poor, and why...

Just as Li Chengqian was listening, he heard a noise outside. He thought it was Pei Xingjian or Zhou Jin who came back, but he didn't expect that Li Yi's mansion had come first.

When Old Man Song saw that Li Chengqian had something to do, he stood up and said goodbye. Li Chengqian rewarded him with two hangs of money, and then went out with great gratitude.

"I met His Highness the Crown Prince."

There were no outsiders in the room, and the dusty Li Yifu hurriedly saluted Li Chengqian.

"Li Qingping, you come to see me so soon, but what happened?"

Li Yifu heard this and said anxiously: "Go back to the crown prince, something big happened.

In order to ensure the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince, I ask His Highness to immediately get up and return to Luoyang."
