"Brother Changsun! Come and have a tea!"

Li Yuanai greeted him with a smile without any restraint.

Regarding Changsun Chong's friend, Li Yuanai did not break off contact with him because of Changsun Wuji's relationship.

They had their own friends with each other. If it were someone else, Li Yuanai might have been worried about it, but Changsun Chong would not do so.

The kind-hearted man in front of him is really a humble gentleman. He has not inherited any sleekness and deceit from his father. He is honest and friendly to others. His reputation is completely polarized with his father.

Even though he was in Jiangnan, Li Yuanai also received letters from Changsun Chong from time to time, chatting about family matters and sending out some extremely rare wood and stone materials.

The Qilin stone sculpture in the house-holding house of the King of Wu Mansion in Jiangnan was a large piece of white marble that Changsun Chong accidentally encountered in the West City, and was sent to Jiangnan from thousands of miles away.

When encountering something special in Jiangnan, Li Yuanai will also repay you and give it to the Chang'an Princess Mansion.

For some reason, Changsun Chong was one of the first people in Chang'an to drink fried tea and sleep on cotton bedding.

Changsun Chong bowed to Li Yuanai first. In terms of etiquette, he has always been a model for Confucian children, with various rules and meticulousness.

Li Yuanai had long been used to letting him sit in the seat.

Changsun Chong did not attend the table first, but said to the public: "Send it up!"

Li Yuanai stood up happily. Most of the gifts given by Changsun Chong were in line with his wishes. Today, the gifts came to the door with a gift were not ordinary.

"What good thing happened again?"

Changsun Chong also knew Li Yuanai's character, and he didn't care about it. He said bluntly: "It is a work passed down by Yuwen craftsmen. This thing is not as good as a few pieces of straw paper as someone, but it is no different from the King of Wu."

Li Yuanai was instantly moved and walked up to the servant carrying the big wooden box, and opened the wooden box himself, which contained a roll of wooden book scripts.

This era is not without books, but there are no page-turning books.

Nowadays, scholars are accustomed to the roller shutter-style writing and reading method, so regardless of manuscripts, they are rolled from right to left.

This kind of book is presented in the form of paper and is easy to carry, but is not convenient to store.

Therefore, although bamboo slips are clumsy, they are more likely to be damaged than the moldy and yellowing of silk books, and the bamboo slips still occupy a certain proportion. Especially when they need to be stored, they will deliberately choose bamboo slips.

Li Yuanai took the top book simplified book, and the cover page on the back had four words "The Book of the East Capital" written on it. He couldn't wait to open it, and it was actually about the overall layout of Luoyang in the Sui Dynasty.

If Yuwen Kai's greatest achievement in his life is to design and build Chang'an City, it will lay a firm foundation for the most prosperous city in the next two hundred years.

If it weren't for his reasonable planning and the convenience of transportation of Guangtong Channel, the special terrain of Guanzhong would not be able to support such a huge population at all.

But if you really want to talk about Yuwen Kai’s pinnacle work, it must be the eastern capital Luoyang City.

Because Chang'an City was not perfect, Yuwen Kai was young at that time and did not consider the needs of social development at that time well. The city was too large and exceeded the requirements of the times. The four lilifangs in the south of the city had not many residents after more than 300 years of the Sui and Tang dynasties, and they were very neglected and desolate. Also, although the roads in Chang'an City were very wide, they were all dirt roads. They were muddy during rain and snow, and were difficult to pass. Sometimes they had to stop even going to court. In order to drain, the road surface was higher in the middle, with ditches of more than two meters on both sides and more than two meters deep, which affected the environment, and there were often accidents of drowning in residents.

Yuwen Kai, who planned and built Luoyang, experienced great ups and downs, and his overall layout of the building has reached a state of pure love.

He learned from the experience of building Chang'an, planned Luoyang reasonably, discussed structural layout and attention, and was more important than Chang'an.

In particular, the imperial city called Ziwei City is known as "very poor and luxurious, and the capitals of the previous dynasties are no match for it", which can be said to be the best in ancient and modern times.

It was just because of its extravagance that Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan, the fourth year of Wude, was burned and built.

The current Ziwei City is incomparable to the Ziwei City of that time.

When Li Yuanai saw Ziwei City at this time, he felt that it was not very compatible with Luoyang City. He once complained in his heart that Li Yuan and Li Shimin did not do personnel.

As a new dynasty, it was not too much to slander the previous dynasty. Yang Guang was extremely extravagant. When many major projects were started together, he even built a beautiful palace for himself. It was indeed worth it to be damaged. But the palaces were successfully built, so you burned them out, saying that they were extravagant and wasted, and then they built them again. What's the point?

Li Yuanai was filled with regrets when he failed to see the original appearance of Ziwei City. Now the "Dongdu Picture Record" in his hand has ideas about the construction of the Eastern Capital Luoyang.

Li Yuanai was fascinated by the sight, and even forgot about time and had guests here.

Changsun Chong did not urge him, but waited patiently to taste tea.

I didn't realize until I read the last word of the book in my hand and took the next one. I didn't realize that I was not in the study.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm happy to see the hunt!"

Li Yuanai couldn't put it down and returned the book in her hand to its original place, asking someone to send it to her study, thinking that even if she stayed up all night tonight, she would have to finish reading it.

"This is really a treasure! I thank Ling Zun!"

Li Yuanai knew Changsun Chong so well. If these were Changsun Chong's own, he would have already delivered them when he helped him repair the princess's mansion.

As he said, these things are less valuable than a few pieces of straw paper to him...

The only explanation is that this thing did not belong to Changsun Chong before.

Changsun Chong did not hide it, and smiled and said, "The sword is matched with a hero. This book can only be reflected in the book of Your Highness." He paused and said, "My father was particularly moved and said that what Yuwen Kai learned throughout his life was fortunately inherited by the King of Wu, which was also his greatest blessing."

There was an inexplicable light in Li Yuanai's eyes. Changsun Wuji sent his son to send such a big gift at this time, which was not simply a show of goodwill, but should have something else to say.

After warmly entertaining Changsun Chong, Li Yuanai kept thinking about this question.

Suddenly, I thought of the saying "What Yuwen Kai learned in his life was fortunately inherited by the King of Wu, which was also his greatest blessing." I was cheerful and everything was clear.

Changsun Wuji doesn't plan to play...

Since Li Tai died of illness, the old fox has no bargaining chips to turn over the table. Although he is still controlling the overall situation, as he grows older, the disadvantage of no successors appearing.

Even if you fight yourself and kill all your opponents, so what?

I am still young, and I am young is capital. Even if I am demoted to Lingnan, I will still be able to come back for ten or twenty years.

The more ruthless the fight, it will only accumulate Li Zhi's hatred. When he dies, it will be the time when the Changsun family destroys the clan...

After thinking through everything, Li Yuanai found that he really underestimated Changsun Wuji.

Can take it and let it go.

The open-mindedness of this ranger and beggar is not really open-minded, because they have never had everything.

This is truly amazing for those who have everything but can resist temptation and let go at critical moments.
