It’s strange to say, it’s been a year or two. Logically, his apprentice should have been given a formal name, but now he is still called by the nickname Baoer. Could it be that Zhao Xuan and the others have forgotten?
"Master Li!"
Suddenly a lively voice interrupted Li Lezhi's thoughts. He looked up and saw Gongsun Miaoran approaching with a smile.
Li Lezhi looked up at the sky again and saw that it was not time yet, so he asked, "Take Baoer back?"
Baoer also looked up at Gongsun Miaoran and politely called him "Uncle."
Gongsun Miaoran walked in, and while his cousin was away, he touched Baoer's head, and then said to Li Lezhi: "I am not here to pick Baoer up this time, it's because of the matter in Yizhou City. Lin Yan of the Yizhou Lin family was once acquainted with me. This time he came to Beijing for the exam, and brought some things from Yizhou City. They were all asked by the people of Yizhou to bring them to you."
"Originally, some people were going to send some fruits to the Taoist priest, but the journey from Yizhou is long and the fruits would go bad. Some wanted to send some chickens to the Taoist priest, but Lin Yan stopped them all. He was reluctant to disappoint everyone, so he built a farm in Yizhou, and all the goods were exchanged for silver and brought over. Some were cloth, which is produced in abundance in Yizhou. Oh, yes, there are also some dried fruits that can be brought over. They are all with me. I will send them to you as soon as you nod."
"Yizhou specialty..." www.jiangnanxs.com Jiangnan Literature Network
"I heard from Lin Yan that you and His Highness returned from Yizhou without alerting anyone. Only people in Yizhou knew about it after you left. They had wanted to send you some things, but when they learned that you were gone, the four families in Yizhou took the lead and collected all the things they had, and found a farm to raise and grow them, and they would send you the harvest every year. Later, more people knew about it, and there were more and more things in the farm, and many people went to take care of it. This year, Lin Yan happened to be going to Beijing, so I asked him to bring everything along."
"Not only did he send you something, Lin Yan also said that he made a wooden statue for you in Sanqing Pavilion and placed it together with the Three Pure Ones."
Li Lezhi:……!!!
Li Lezhi's pupils widened slightly. He must have heard it wrong. Yizhou made a wooden statue for him and placed it together with the Three Pure Ones. How could he be worthy of being on par with the Three Pure Ones? His fate could not bear it.
But he also knew that the wooden statue was definitely not moved in just now. A year had passed, and the people of Yizhou might have been burning incense for more than half a year. He had no reason to stop them now.
If he had known this earlier, he should have calculated it for himself. How could he have caused such a big mess?
It's a big misunderstanding.
Li Lezhi now wants to burn incense and worship Buddha, although there is no Buddha in this world, only the Three Pure Ones.
Facing Gongsun Miaoran's inquiring eyes, Li Le simply nodded and said, "Since it is a kind gesture from everyone, I will accept it, but... that's all..."
Things have come to this point, and he has no other choice but to burn more incense and ask the Three Pure Ones not to blame him.
What he didn't expect was that Taoist Mu and others did not stop him. This was no small matter. Could it be because he performed rituals that made others think he had divine powers, but he did not succeed.
Li Le was confused and could only forget about it and pretend that it had never happened. Otherwise, he would think of it every time he burned incense, feeling inexplicably embarrassed and not daring to step into the Taoist temple.
I don't know how far this story has spread. If everyone knew about it, some people who don't like it would say he crossed the line, and some people would tease him about it...
Thinking of all the possibilities, these things are huge challenges for him, who suffers from social phobia. He just wants to light a stick of incense for himself and say "Amitabha".
After the things were delivered, Li Le was surprised again. He looked at the things that were being moved in continuously and there was no end in sight.
He looked at Gongsun Miaoran, who seemed to know what he was going to ask, and said with a smile: "There are still twenty carriages. Fortunately, the Taoist's family is large, so we can open a few more warehouses and we can always load them."
"Lin Yan said that they were all worthless things, and he was afraid that the things he gave were not good enough."
"..." Li Le just relaxed his mood and said with some complexity: "Love is not precious."
Giving these is better than giving him valuable things.
The things that were delivered, such as cloth and so on, were put into one warehouse, the money was put into another, and the remaining dried fruits were stored separately, which also made it convenient for him to take them out.
After everything was packed up, Li Le only took out a large portion for Gongsun Miaoran to take home and eat, and took a small portion for Baoer.
After finishing all this, Li Lezhi also remembered what he had thought before and asked, "Bao'er hasn't been named yet, what do you think, Your Highness?"
Gongsun Miaoran also followed Li Lezhi's gaze and looked at Baoer who was standing next to him. Baoer was holding dried fruits in his arms. Now when he heard about the decision to take a name, he looked at the two of them curiously.
Looking at his nephew's chubby little face, Gongsun Miaoran thought of the fact that his cousin had not yet given him a name. This was something he should not forget. If his cousin did not give him a name, then His Majesty should give it.
But Baoer is already three years old and he doesn't have a full name yet. This shouldn't happen. So, there is only one possibility. Baoer's full name, His Majesty and his cousin both want Taoist Li to name him.
After Taoist Priest Li gave Baoer the name, the friendship between him and Baoer became even deeper, and he would be able to support Baoer in the future. It was probably because of this incident that His Majesty and my cousin wanted to find a backer for Baoer, so they came up with this plan.
But Taoist Li probably doesn't know about this either. Considering Taoist Li's current reputation, if Taoist Li hadn't mentioned it, His Majesty and my cousin probably wouldn't have spoken a word.
Gongsun Miaoran's expression relaxed after he figured it out. He smiled and said, "Master Li, you are Bao'er's master. As the saying goes, once a teacher, always a father. Why don't you give Bao'er a big name?"
"I choose it?" Li Le looked surprised, with a hint of shock in his eyes. Isn't it a bit unreasonable for him to choose this name when the prince is still alive?
Gongsun Miaoran saw the hesitation in Li Lezhi's eyes. In order to ensure that his nephew would have a backer that no one could surpass in the future, Gongsun Miaoran hurriedly said, "Why not? Just think about it. His Highness will not blame you whether it is suitable or not."
Li Le just lowered his head to look at Baoer, and met the boy's eyes. He saw the expectation in the boy's eyes, and there was such a good opportunity in front of him, so how could he not try it.
Compared to others, it is Zhao Cong, and he selfishly wants the child he raised himself to be the one.
Li Le just touched the kid's head and said with a smile: "Auspicious jade is often used in sacrifices as a Cong, so let's call him Zhao Cong."
"Zhao Cong," Gongsun Miaoran called out softly, with joy flashing in his eyes. He immediately said, "This is a good name. Bao'er will be a well-known person in the future. There won't be many days left for me to call you Bao'er."
Bao'er, which is also the name of Zhao Cong, is temporarily decided. Gongsun Miaoran knows that Bao'er will not be called anything else in the future. Zhao Cong is his real name.
Gongsun Miaoran suppressed the joy in his heart and did not turn around and leave. Instead, he waited until Li Lezhi finished teaching before taking Zhao Cong away and telling his cousin about the matter.
When Zhao Xuan learned that Bao'er was named Zhao Cong by Taoist Li, he was overjoyed. He picked up Bao'er and walked inside. As for Gongsun Miaoran, he was driven back home.
Due to the busy government affairs, even if he intended to rest more and take good care of his body, there were many things to do. Zhao Xuan also knew that his body was not as good as it looked. The poison in Yizhou still caused him a lot of pain, and it was unknown how long he could live.
This time, he could rest assured that Bao'er was named Zhao Cong by Taoist Li. If there was really an accident and he got into trouble, the two of them would be left alone. With Taoist Li as their teacher and his father's care, the third brother would not compete with his nephew for the throne.
Before that, he still had to clear the obstacles for his son.
Zhao Xuan did not reveal what he was thinking on the surface. He continued to tease his son with a smile and chat with the Crown Princess about family matters. He also shared with her the good news that Baoer had a great name.
The news that Bao'er had a famous name also spread to the palace. Emperor Zhao learned that Taoist Li really gave Bao'er a famous name, Zhao Cong, and offered auspicious jade. It can be seen that the Taoist priest also had high hopes for Bao'er, and he no longer had to worry about the future of them father and son.
Emperor Zhao coughed, and the eunuch Liu beside him immediately stepped forward to serve tea and said, "Your Majesty, please call Imperial Physician Zhang to take a look."
Emperor Zhao took a sip of tea and waved his hand, saying, "It's just an old illness, nothing serious. How's the situation over there?"
"Everything is going smoothly, just waiting for the right time."
"good."
When the third prince learned that Taoist Li named Zhao Xuan's son Zhao Cong, he sneered inwardly, laughing at himself for having been so wishful thinking in the past. His father was so devoted to Zhao Xuan that he even planned this matter.
In the past, the Third Prince still wanted to compete with Zhao Xuan, but as Taoist Li became more famous, he no longer had the need to compete. If he really drove Zhao Xuan away, he would be labeled a traitor.
It would be better to hope that Zhao Xuan dies early so that his nephew can take the throne and have a good end, or become a frontier king.
The fight between the three kingdoms has been going crazy recently. When the dust settles, it will be time for Daliang to make his debut.
If you cannot become a sage king, then become a general who sweeps across the battlefield. In the end, you will leave your name in history.
Perhaps even if Zhao Xuan had become emperor, this general would not have become famous.
After the Sixth Prince knew that Zhao Cong had become famous, he secretly resented Emperor Zhao's arrangement even more. He originally planned to win over Li Lezhi and make him his assistant, but it happened that Li Lezhi was only his nephew's teacher.
He did not forget what official position his father had given to Li Lezhi.
The prince's tutor.
Not only was Zhao Xuan designated as the crown prince, but even his sons were designated as the crown prince. His father was too biased. Aren't they his sons?
The Sixth Prince was furious. He walked into the inner room and opened the secret compartment beside the bed. There was a small white bottle in the secret compartment.
He picked up the small white bottle and rubbed it twice. The thing inside was a good thing given to him by Prince Yin. It was said to make people drunk for a thousand days. After taking it, people would be like being drunk and in a long dream, and finally die after a thousand days.
Originally, such a good thing should have been used after Zhao Xuan's death when he was named the crown prince, but now he can't wait any longer.
We have to think of a way to get his father to take it.
Xuanyang Palace
Xuan Yang Ziye observed the sky and found that the star in front was dim. This was not a good sign, as it meant that the prince's life was about to come to an end.
In order to make sure he had seen it wrong, Xuan Yangzi immediately found Li Lezhi.
At this time, it was already dark, the yard was empty and not very crowded. Li Le only lived in the front yard, his apprentice was still in the academy and had not returned yet, and only Xiao Wu was with him.
Xiao Wu had sharp ears. When he heard the noise, he immediately went to open the door. When he saw Xuan Yangzi, he was startled at first, then he stepped aside and led Xuan Yangzi inside.
After hearing the noise, Li Lezhi stood up, put on his clothes and walked out. When he opened the door and saw the figure of Senior Xuan Yangzi, he was also startled and slightly confused.
I don’t know why you come here so late at night.
It’s strange to say, it’s been a year or two. Logically, his apprentice should have been given a formal name, but now he is still called by the nickname Baoer. Could it be that Zhao Xuan and the others have forgotten?
