Ma Ye finally decided to go to Feinusi. He didn't know how he convinced Princess Guanghua and Hen'er. Anyway, the mother and daughter reluctantly agreed. However, they heard that they set a lot of rules for Ma Ye, such as not drinking anymore, and the time to go to Feinusi every day is limited, etc. Of course, Ma Ye would not tell anyone about these conditions. But Li Xiu heard some from Hen'er, but he didn't dare to ask Ma Ye for confirmation. After all, with Ma Ye's personality of sacrificing face, he would not admit it even after asking, and he might even scold Li Xiu.
Li Xiu wrote the letter to Zhao Deyan and sent it out, but Hongzhou was too far from Chang'an. Even at the fastest speed, it would take a few months to communicate with each other. This still used Feinusi's message transmission channel, otherwise it would only be slower, so Li Xiu had no choice but to wait patiently.
However, Zhao Deyan had not replied to him, but a bad news came from Gaochang, that was, some riots suddenly occurred in Gaochang, which was originally determined, especially the Gaochang nobles rebelled in Gaochang City. Although they were suppressed by Hou Junji, they still caused a lot of chaos. Afterwards, the originally prosperous Gaochang City suddenly became depressed.
It is also worth mentioning that the news from Gaochang was not reported by Hou Junji, but was sent back by Feinusi people. Now Ma Ye has begun to take over some of Feinusi's affairs, so Li Xiu learned about this, and his first reaction was that something was wrong.
In fact, not only Li Xiu felt something was wrong, but Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others also felt something was wrong, because according to Hou Junji's previous report, after Gaochang City was defeated, the people in the city did not resist much. In fact, before the Tang army besieged the city, many people secretly became loyal to the Tang army and planned to offer the city to the Tang army, but now someone suddenly rebelled, so there is no need to think about it and know that there is something wrong.
What's more, this news was quietly sent back by Feinusi. There was no news from Hou Junji. So after thinking for a few days, Li Shimin decided to send someone to Gaochang to investigate. After all, Gaochang was a stepping stone for the Tang Dynasty to march into the Western Regions. He even decided to set up the Anxi Protectorate in Gaochang to strengthen the Tang Dynasty's rule over the Western Regions, so Gaochang must not be in chaos.
When Li Xiu heard that Li Shimin sent someone to Gaochang to investigate, he suddenly remembered that after destroying Gaochang, Hou Junji was not only not rewarded, but was also questioned. As a result, it was precisely because of this incident that Hou Junji held a grudge, and later the incident of his follower Li Chengqian's rebellion.
When Li Xiu thought of the above, he couldn't help but feel heavy. No matter how he affected history, some events still happened according to the original historical trajectory. There was Li Shimin's Xuanwu Sect before, and now there was Li Chengqian's thing, but he was powerless. This made him sigh and simply reduce the frequency of going out, trying to isolate communication with the outside world as much as possible, so as not to be upset when hearing some news.
After the Lantern Festival, Zhao Deyan's reply finally arrived, which made Li Xiu very excited. He immediately took his reply to the study room, and then opened the study room to watch. Speaking of which, he and Zhao Deyan have often communicated over the years and are very clear about each other's situation. Therefore, in addition to a few polite words on the beginning of Zhao Deyan's letter, he quickly got to the point.
"That's great!" When he saw the content of Zhao Deyan's letter, Li Xiu couldn't help but slap the table, because Zhao Deyan agreed to come to Feinusi to serve. As long as Li Shimin officially issued an order, he would immediately leave and rush back to Chang'an.
Seeing Zhao Deyan agreeing, Li Xiu finally let go of his heart that had been hanging. After all, Ma Ye is old and cannot keep up with his energy. He seemed a little overwhelmed when he started taking over Feinusi's affairs during this period, and there were no capable people around him. If Zhao Deyan could come back, Ma Ye would be much more relaxed.
There were some greetings to Li Xiu and his current situation at the end of the letter. The letter also specifically introduced his current family. He married Queen Xiao’s granddaughter. Although the two were quite different, their relationship was good. Moreover, after Zhao Deyan went to Hongzhou, his wife gave birth to a pair of children for him. Now his children are at the age of studying, but Hongzhou is located in a remote place and there are no famous teachers, so Zhao Deyan also proposed to send him to Li Xiu to study.
Seeing Zhao Deyan’s description of his children after seeing him, Li Xiu was also very happy because Zhao Deyan had only hatred in his heart in the past and was even a little sick. However, now it seems that he has also begun to think about his children. The reason why he agreed to enter Feinusi this time was not only for Li Xiu’s face, but also for his children. After all, compared with small places like Hongzhou, Chang'an is more prosperous, and the education of his children is also very important.
It was getting late at this time. Li Xiu estimated that Ma Ye should have returned from Feinusi, so he took a letter to Ma Ye's house, preparing to tell him the good news. As a result, as soon as he arrived at Ma Ye's gate, he saw a carriage slowly coming from a distance. It was Ma Ye's carriage, which made Li Xiu happy and said: "Uncle Ma, you are back, you are so coincidental. I happen to have good news to tell you!"
Hearing Li Xiu's voice, Ma Ye also opened the car door. When he saw the letter in Li Xiu's hand, he also said happily: "Has Zhao Deyan replied to him? What did he say?"
"Zhao Deyan has agreed. Uncle Ma, you can ask Your Majesty to issue an order tomorrow and just transfer Zhao Deyan back to Beijing to assist you." Li Xiu also smiled and raised the letter in his hand.
However, just as Li Xiu finished speaking, he suddenly frowned again and walked forward a few steps. Only then did he realize that Mr. Ma in the car looked a little wrong, which made him ask anxiously: "Uncle Ma, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so ugly?"
"It's okay, you don't have to worry. It's just that you encounter some things, so you feel a little excited. As a result, you get older and you will easily feel dizzy when you are excited. But it's nothing serious. Now it's much better." Mr. Ma chuckled at this time, and then tried to stand up from the car, but he failed to succeed after exerting force several times.
Seeing this, Li Xiu was also very worried and did not need the help of the servants around him. He jumped into the carriage and helped Master Ma up. Only then did he realize that Master Ma was weak all over, and it was definitely not as simple as just dizzy.
"Go and invite the doctor!" Li Xiu hurriedly ordered.
"No, I know my own body. I don't need a doctor. If the doctor comes, Guanghua and Hen'er will be more worried!" However, Ma Ye said at this time, and at this time he finally stood up with force and stopped Li Xiu's support, so as to show that his body was fine.
Seeing that Mr. Ma seemed to be really fine, Li Xiu was relieved a little at this time, but he still couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Ma, are you really okay? What happened to make you so excited?"
