Chapter 271 Opening up the joints
Wang Zhi was trustworthy in doing things. In fact, Li Su's plan to escape from danger several times was Wang Zhi secretly helped to implement it, and he never failed.
The former young brothers were hanging out in East City, Chang'an for many days and were held high by those idle men all day long. Now Wang Zhi has a bit more mature flavor, but this mature flavor is a bit weird, mixed with a bit of smoothness and aura. When his face sinks, he does have a little bit of aura and aura. He seems to be the style of a big brother in the world.
Perhaps only in front of Li Su did Wang Zhi act as stupid as before.
"It's easy to find people. A few days ago, I met a merchant from Jiangnan Road who came to Chang'an to do porcelain transactions. He just entered Chang'an City and was unfamiliar with people, so he was very careful. He nodded and looked like a servile man when he saw the Hu merchants in the Fanbang. He was very annoying. He was seen by Wuhou who was patrolling the streets and beat him up without saying a word, calling him a loss of the face of our Tang people. Don't think about doing business in Chang'an in the future. When he saw him, he was in bad luck. He didn't say anything about being beaten. He didn't say anything about it. He found that the warehouse had water. Thousands of porcelain were smoked and smashed, and they were all destroyed. The merchant cried so much that he pulled a rope to hang it. As a result, he was hit by me, so he rescued him and borrowed another hundred coins as capital. If he could make a comeback in the future, he would pay me back. If he couldn't, he would be a friend..."
Li Su's cheeks twitched violently, trying to kick him, but she still held back.
Well, Wang Zhi’s approach is actually correct. Nowadays, the folk customs of the Tang Dynasty are very simple. I rarely heard of people with bad hearts and bad helps those who are in trouble. They are almost his rebirth of their parents, and their kindness is too great.
The king said directly: "The merchant collected the money and kowtowed three times in tears, saying that this kindness is like rebuilding, and his life will be sold to me from now on..."
Wang Zhi deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I know this businessman. No one knows it, so if you want to buy that, it is most appropriate for him to come forward."
Li Su nodded: "No, it's good for him to come forward, remember. It's very important to me to be satisfied with this person. You immediately ask the merchant to come forward and use money to open the joints. I can't show up in this matter, so when encountering any difficulties, you can only use money to open the way, and there is no other way."
Wang Zhi nodded in agreement.
Look up and look at the sky. The wind and snow have become smaller, and the sky is still gray. The heavy snow falls from the sky, silently covering up all the ugly and darkness in the world.
Wang Zhi still returned to Dongcheng to hang out, while Li Su walked alone on the cold and deserted street.
The weather was so cold that it was more than an hour before the city gate was closed, but there was no one on the street. Even Wuhou, who was patrolling the street, seemed a little lazy and didn't know where to hide in the snow to keep warm.
After Li Su walked a few steps towards the city gate, his steps suddenly stopped. Then he turned around and walked towards Tai Chi Palace.
The square in front of Tai Chi Palace was still heavily guarded. Li Su stood far away on the edge of the square. He quietly stared at the towering palace walls in the wind and snow, and there were also teams of Forbidden Palace guards holding halberds and holding swords.
Dongyang lived in the palace. I don’t know which palace I live in or whether I was doing well. A fair woman had to become a monk and become a Taoist nun. How much grievance and pain would she have to endure?
The wind snowman is independent, Li Su pursed her lips and looked at the imperial city in the gray sky. She didn't know what she was thinking.
He stood there for a long time until his body was numb from the cold. Li Su sighed sadly and walked back.
Perhaps, it was his luck to come to this heroic and unrestrained era. But what did those storms and tyrants have to do with him? In this strange world, all he wanted was a beloved woman.
******************************************************************
The merchant's surname is Song and his name is Gongyang. He is from Yuezhou, Jiangnan. He is white and fat and honest, a bit like King Li Tai of Wei. From ancient times to the present, it seems that fat people are very honest and look easy to bully at first glance. The difference is that King Wei is ridiculous, because of his prince's identity, no one dares to bully him. Now the people who bully him are planted in the soil, waiting for spring to sprout... But this brother Song Gongyang is really often bullied.
Song Gongyang's personality is a typical businessman with a kind face, and his smile will not change at all even if he slapped him in the face. His eyes showed a sincere feeling of treating you as a relative. He was all thinking about you, and he did not praise his goods in a scattered manner like other merchants. On the contrary, Song Gongyang looked very honest in doing business. First of all, he honestly told his goods what shortcomings, what shortcomings, what prices and quality are better than other stores, what are the differences, etc., and then he told you, what advantages or disadvantages will you get if you buy mine for the same goods...
He stood completely from the customer's standpoint, shook all the good and bad things in the entire industry, with a warm smile and a warm spring breeze-like speech, mixed with a few words in the middle, "Don't buy this, this is too expensive, I use it to fool outsiders." The customer was confused and was coaxed by Song Gongyang to pay the money obediently. He walked to the street with the goods and suddenly realized that he had lost his money and had a completely useless piece of junk in his hand...
A real businessman has a strange magic, which completely hypnotizes customers like a hypnotist, and then coaxes customers to pay in an extremely charming tone, and then foolishly carries a product home without any use.
Song Gongyang has this kind of ability.
Putting aside the relationship between people, as far as things go, Wang Zhi saved Song Gongyang was definitely a huge investment. As long as someone like Song Gongyang had a tone, he was destined to be rich in his life. Wang Zhi saved his life, which was equivalent to fertilizing a money tree that was almost wilted. When he was short of money, he shook it and shook it again...
At this moment, Song Gongyang was willing to do something for Wang Zhi and do something very strange.
Under Wang Zhi's arrangement, outside the Taichang Temple official yamen, Song Gongyang and Taichang Doctor Liu Fangzhong had a "accidental encounter", which was really a beautiful encounter.
There are many excuses for encountering each other, from accidentally hitting the shoulder to "I saw that the adults are so skeletons are so weird", it is hypocritical but practical. With Song Gongyang's ability to be a businessman, it only takes about one incense stick from the first meeting to making friends. If there is more than half incense stick, Liu Fangzhong will probably chop chicken heads with Song Gongyang and burn yellow paper.
It would be better to invite him if you meet him by chance. Song Gongyang naturally took Liu Fangzhong to the restaurant and drank it all. If it weren't for Song Gongyang's identity as a merchant, Liu Fangzhong really had the urge to worship him. Of course. The main reason was that after the banquet, Liu Fangzhong found that his property had inexplicably increased its value. It was not worth much. It was just 200 taels of silver cakes, which was enough to buy a spacious house in the prosperous town of Chang'an City.
The next development was natural. The next day, Liu Fangzhong invited Song Gongyang to Taichang Temple to watch singing and dancing, and then Song Gongyang saw the handsome and weak boy. He was shocked and his expression was very exaggerated.
Liu Fangzhong knew the elegant meaning when he heard the string song, so Song Gongyang and Chengxin met alone.
He is not tall and has a very thin body. From the aesthetic perspective of a Guanzhong person, this person is obviously malnourished and can be blown away by a gust of wind. The only highlight on his body is probably his charming face.
"The villain is satisfied, please pay homage to the elders in the hall." Shuixin received Liu Fangzhong's advice in advance and was very respectful to Song Gongyang. He came in and bowed down.
After showing off, he raised his head and looked directly at Song Gongyang. He was just a distance away and didn't see clearly. When he looked closer, Song Gongyang's heart was so thumping that he had excessive fat.
What a charming and delicate face!
Like half a peach blossom in spring, or like a lotus from the water, clear and charming, the two contradictory temperaments cleverly merged together in him, as if they were natural and full of bright light.
Song Gongyang sighed secretly, this kid... clearly had a wrong birth.
A fat man like Song Gongyang who is so straight that he can't help but want to bend when he sees Xu Xin. No wonder the big man behind Wang Xiandi wanted to redeem Xu Xin, but it's a pity that this pink and tender daisy...
******************************************************************
The Princess Mansion is still being renovated. The Ministry of Works sent hundreds of craftsmen to work day and night, and it looked no different from the previous Princess Mansion. Until one day, a carriage brought two large incense burners that were ten feet tall, standing side by side in front of the former Princess Mansion, which changed the atmosphere of the entire mansion and finally looked like a Taoist temple.
Li Su's mood is neither good nor bad about changing the Princess' Mansion to a Taoist Temple. Perhaps this is an inevitable result, but it is by no means the final result. He and Dongyang are only sixteen or seventeen years old, and there are still infinite possibilities in his future life.
When Li Su lived in the palace, he was not allowed to see him. He returned to his boring days before. He often sat alone by the familiar river beach. After an afternoon, he moved his hands and feet that were frozen and covered in cold hands and feet, and then went home alone.
Occasionally I went to the greenhouse to see. Green vegetables in greenhouses are not divided into seasons. After planting seasons, I calculated by bye bye. The powerful families I knew in Chang'an City had given all the gifts I should give. Even Li Su couldn't help but want to give herself a thumbs up. This favor was so real. The green vegetables delivered to the doors of various powerful families in the winter were as precious as a truck of gold.
However, the green vegetables were sent here and there, but Li Shimin was not sent.
Since the private affair with Dongyang, the relationship between Li Su and Li Shimin instantly fell to freezing point. Although the two had never met after the incident, there was a bit of an inaccurate smell of gunpowder between them. Li Shimin was furious and locked up Li Su in confinement, then promised Dongyang to the Gao family, and released him for no reason. Finally, he compromised with the ghosts and gods and had to terminate the marriage with the Gao family...
One by one, Li Su looked at him coldly. Li Shimin didn't expect that from the beginning to the end, there was always a pair of invisible black hands behind the scenes, turning their hands into clouds, turning their hands into rain, borrowing the power of ghosts and gods, fooling the king and ministers of the palace, and using their own strength to completely reverse a dead end that could not be solved.
In fact, things have developed to this day. The secret battle between Li Su and Li Shimin was only a loss-win situation, but the relationship between the monarch and the ministers has been stalemate until today.
After the incident, Li Su never went to the Firearms Bureau again. For some reason, Li Shimin did not kill or beat him in anger, and did not even remove his official title, but Li Su exiled himself.
That's right, lazy people are so willful, of course, claiming to the outside world is to "think about mistakes behind closed doors."
…………
The cold winter and snowy days also have a mood for Li Su. Idle people will always come up with various ways to make themselves comfortable.
The large bath and sauna steaming room that were specially built when building a new house finally came in handy.
The tragic servants at home suffered. Buckets of hot hot water were poured into a clean bath. After pouring the hot water, they mixed with cold water. After the water temperature was right, Li Su shook his back and jumped into the big pool. He leaned his head against the edge of the pool and let out a comfortable sigh.
The bathroom was filled with misty mist, as if swimming in a fairyland. On the water surface of the pool was a specially made square wooden tray, which was loaded with a small pot of liquor and a small wine glass.
Fill yourself with wine, then drink it all, pursing your lips and feeling the fire-like heat flow spread from your throat to your limbs and bones, and your whole body is comfortable.
Twist a hot towel and tilted his head up to cover his face. Li Su felt so comfortable that she felt sleepy.
What method should be thought of next to let Dongyang meet him. He and she still have a long way to go in their life. Moreover, Li Su made up his mind that this road must be taken together, so it doesn’t matter even if Dongyang becomes a Taoist nun. Li Su only recognized this woman. Even if he had no status with each other in this life, he and she could not be separated.
Therefore, the saying "boring causes disaster" is still very reasonable. During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, everyone worked hard and self-reliant, and contributed to the prosperity of the Tang imperialism. When they did their best, there was a man lying comfortably in the large bathhouse, but his mind was full of ideas on how to abduct the daughter of the current emperor...
…………
Before he could figure it out, an uninvited guest came to the Li family. From the perspective of Buddhist Zen, it was Li Su's retribution.
Just as Li Su was lying comfortably in the bathhouse to plot, the thick curtain outside the bathroom was suddenly lifted up ruthlessly, and a biting cold wind blew in. Li Su, who was soaking naked in the pool, shivered coldly. Who would dare to break in at will at will? Now he must have a strong position.
Li Su immediately turned her head and stared outside the door full of anger.
The curtain was opened, but the sound was heard first.
A thick and majestic voice came from outside the door: "Wow, this guy really did not treat himself badly. My Tai Chi Palace has never been so extravagant. Come and give me loose clothes, and I will also go in and soak it."
