Chapter 402

Weiyang Palace

"The book of songs Xiaoya": "how is the night? The night is not in the middle."

This is the origin of Weiyang palace. Since the Han Dynasty, Weiyang palace has been the center of Royal activities. Many historical events have taken place here.

In particular, the beheading of Han Xin in Weiyang palace added a bit of mystery to the palace out of thin air.

Today's Weiyang palace is even more lively. The supreme emperor's birthday is held here. He bought wine and dignitaries in the court. Just to solve thousands of worries, he pulled 500 pieces from the wine cellar in Mojia village.

"Mo boy, you're not sincere!" Merton was stopped by Cheng Yaojin and asked as soon as he arrived at the gate of Weiyang palace.

Merton said innocently, "Uncle Cheng, why did you say that? I haven't deceived you."

"This solution to thousands of worries is often out of stock in Chang'an city. I can't buy it when I want to drink. They all say that Mojia village has little supply. It's your boy who hid it." Cheng Yaojin scolded on his face.

Merton smiled and said, "Uncle Cheng wants to drink. My nephew will come to the door and send you a car someday, so uncle Cheng can't finish drinking every day!"

Cheng Yaojin pretended to have a straight face and said, "I can't afford to drink. Your boy looks harmless to people and animals. In fact, he is black hearted. I can't afford to sell a bottle of wine for money."

Merton's face drooped when he heard the speech. The old man didn't want to face up. He was invincible in the world. He wanted to drink and didn't want to owe a favor.

"This is the cost price of the wine in Mojia village!" Merton said with a black face.

Cheng Yaojin suddenly smiled and said, "well, I just know I didn't read you wrong, or your boy has filial piety, which is much better than that Lengtou Qing in my family."

Cheng Yaojin couldn't help saying that he took Merton into Weiyang palace.

"Duke Cheng and Duke Mo are here!" with the eunuch's report, Wen and Wu in Weiyang palace suddenly calmed down and looked at them involuntarily.

Cheng Yaojin's face immediately showed pride. He stepped into the palace and took only a few steps. However, he found that everyone turned a blind eye to him and focused on Merton behind him.

After all, recently, Merton has really been in the limelight in Chang'an city. With the graduation of one of the six subjects of the Imperial College and the amazing masterpiece of Chang'an City, the name of the Mohist school is like thunder.

But Merton spent most of his time in the Imperial College. It was rare for people to see him. Seeing Merton coming today, they all attracted people's onlookers.

"Oh! But the boy Merton came and asked him to come to the audience." Li Yuan, the Lord, couldn't help looking at the news.

He was very impressed by Merton. Last time, Merton followed Li Chengqian and Princess Changle and presented his secret hair dyeing skills, which was very much to his heart.

Moreover, he knew that more than one month later, the secret skills of Taoist hair dyeing began to be sold in Chang'an city. It can be seen that Merton presented the first one, which made Li Yuan very satisfied. After all, he had not felt the feeling of enjoying the world for a long time since he retired from the throne.

"Lord Mo, summoned by the emperor!"

A eunuch from Weiyang palace came up to Merton and said. As for Cheng Yaojin, Li Yuan didn't even ask. For these fierce generals who forced the palace to rebel, Li Yuan has reached this age and has no worries. Although he doesn't embarrass them, he won't give them a good face.

I didn't see Yuchi Jingde, who had invaded the Tai Chi hall and directly threatened Li Yuan to abdicate, sitting in the corner without saying a word and acting as a wooden man.

Cheng Yaojin tactfully touched his nose and consciously sat next to Yuchi Jingde. He also made a statue.

When Merton followed the eunuch to Li Yuan, Li Chengqian and the princes just presented birthday gifts to Li Yuan. Li Yuan looked at the gifts made by the princes and couldn't close his mouth. Li Shimin smiled and agreed.

"See the emperor!" Merton bowed.

"Come on, everyone come and see my great Tang youth!" Li Yuan pointed to Merton and laughed. Merton's "young Tang theory" is famous in Chang'an city. Li Yuan naturally read it, and he was very happy to see Merton come.

"He's really a good man!" a blunt mandarin of the Tang Dynasty echoed. When Merton Yu Guang looked, he saw a man with a big figure, a beard and a pair of Turkic clothes.

Merton's heart moved. Could it be that this person was Jieli Khan.

Jieli Khan is only in his fifties, but his face is full of vicissitudes and looks withered. His spirit is nearly 70 years in a row, not even Li Yuan with black hair.

"Not worthy of the Admiral's praise," Murton bowed.

After Jieli Khan was captured by Li Shimin to Chang'an City, he was granted the title of right back general by Li Shimin. Of course, there was only a virtual position without real power. It was not wrong for Merton to call him a general.

Merton suddenly found a sight staring at himself. He turned his head and saw that on Li Yuan's right, a 30-year-old official dressed like the Nanman he saw at the east gate was looking at him. It must be Feng Zhidai, the nephew of Lingnan Wang Feng ang.

Merton smiled at him, but Feng Zhidai showed a strange smile.

Merton was surprised. He didn't have time to think carefully, but he saw Jieli Khan get up and salute Li Yuan and say, "on the birthday of the supreme emperor, Jieli lives in Chang'an and has nothing. Only this gold knife is always with him. Today, he specially presented it to celebrate the birthday of the supreme emperor."

Jieli Khan looked humble and respectful. Only the eunuch immediately presented a brocade box to Li Yuan. The gold knife is strictly prohibited. Jieli Khan naturally could not take it to the hall and had long been handed over to the eunuch.

When Li Yuan saw his former opponent, he bowed down to himself. He was in a great mood. He took the brocade box and opened it. He saw a glittering short knife lying in the brocade box. It is said that at this time, Jieli Khan's favorite thing was not confiscated after it was brought to Chang'an city because it was short. I'm afraid it was the last thing for Jieli Khan to recall his glory. Unexpectedly, he was willing to give it.

"The general has a heart!" Li Yuan laughed and played for a while. He felt dull and handed it to the eunuch to keep it.

Jericho hunton lowered his head.

Merton glanced at Li Shimin vaguely. Li Shimin thought that this must be Li Shimin's means to please Li Yuan.

"I also have a birthday gift for the supreme emperor!" Feng Zhidai stood up and said.

"Oh!" Li Yuan was so excited that he couldn't help looking at Feng Zhidai. Li Yuan knew that Feng ang had offered many treasures in the South China Sea before.

"What the minister wants to offer is not gold and silver, but seeds!" Feng Zhidai glanced at Merton and said proudly.

"Seed?" Li Yuan wondered.

"What Weichen wants to offer is rice that is three times ripe a year in the country of Johor!"

When Feng Zhidai said this, everyone was suddenly surprised and kept switching between Merton and Feng Zhidai.

Li Shimin gave a meal in his hand and looked at Feng Zhidai with sharp eyes.

At that time, at the western regions Congress, Merton waved the soil like gold and lured Johor businessmen with heavy profits to tell them about the excellent rice varieties that were three times ripe in Johor another year. However, the authenticity of this was unknown, and everyone was skeptical.

But everyone knows that if this is true, it must be a great achievement.

But no one thought that this kind of rice was true and was cut off by the Feng family in Lingnan.
