Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Visit
Li Ke invited the businessmen to Concubine Yang's palace, and personally sent her back to Changyin Yuan after the dance, taking this opportunity to talk, but was unexpectedly interrupted by Wu Meiniang, she was really annoyed in her heart, but she had no choice but to go back to her bedroom with a belly of fire, which attracted the palace maids and attendants along the way to look at Li Ke with a straight face, and speculated that it was the eyeless palace person who offended His Royal Highness King Wu.

As soon as he stepped into the door of the study, Yuwen, who was hidden in the dark, appeared and saluted Li Ke.
"How did you do with the Golden Peony?" Li Ke was in a bad mood, and his words were full of anger.
"It's been disposed of, the head of the white peony has been replaced, and her subordinates have warned her not to cause more trouble, I think she should be able to learn smarter with a lesson from the past." Yuwen didn't understand where Li Ke's anger came from, but he didn't want to ask.
Since that injury and dying and being rescued by Shang Shang, for some reason, many things are not as important as before, but he often thinks of Shang Shang who saved him, and her smile makes him can't help but raise the corners of his lips when he thinks about it. This time he went back to Luoyang to dispose of the golden peony, although it was Li Ke's intention, but it also fell into his arms, and he was able to do something for this woman, which made him feel a little inexplicably happy when he thought about it.
"Hmm!" Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed the anger in his heart, Yuwen was his arm, he didn't want to make him dissatisfied because of anger, after all, he was also the old man left to him by his mother.
"Recently, this king has seen the great leader of Tiele wandering around the head offices of major trading houses, and you send someone to follow him to investigate for this king and see what he is trying to do." Li Ke picked up the paperweight on the desk and stroked it between his fingers, this Tiele leader is also a smart person, knowing that the emperor's reward is just a temporary solution, only by opening a trade route, can the people be guaranteed to have no worries about food and clothing!
"Yes, my subordinates understand." Yuwen bowed his head and responded, thought about it and said: "The day before yesterday, my subordinates heard the eyeliner report in the pavilion, it seems that Hu Luge had a conflict with Yao Luoge, and was placed under house arrest by Yao Luoge in the pavilion, but for some reason, Hu Luge disappeared on the second day, and Yao Luoge is now looking for him in Chang'an." ”
"Is there such a thing? Now there is a result, but can people find it? Li Ke raised his eyebrows, for some reason, he had some bad feelings, this Hu Xuange, openly begging for rewards for businessmen above the main hall, which made Li Ke not have a good impression of him, but he was a member of the state, and after being placed under house arrest by the clansmen, he would disappear inexplicably, and this matter itself was a little strange.
Putting the paperweight he was playing with on the table, Li Ke pondered for a while and said: "When you go to stare at Yao Luoge, you will order to go down, this Hu Luge must go all out to investigate, this person is cruel, if he is allowed to wander in Chang'an, I am afraid that he will cause trouble." ”
"Yes, that medicine Luo Ge didn't dare to make a noise, but he sent his subordinates to look for it in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City every day, and there is no news to this day." Yuwen leaned over and replied, Yuwen had also heard about the events in the hall on the day of the dance, and he didn't have a good impression of this Hu Luge, so he was naturally happy to obey Li Ke's arrangement.
After thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing to tell Yuwen again, so Li Ke waved his hand and ordered him to go down, but he sat in the study boredly flipping through the "Historical Records" on the table, read it for a long time but didn't read a word, and in irritability, he changed his clothes and left the palace.
Since she performed a dance in the palace of Concubine Yang, the song "Linjiang Immortal" is well known in the palace, and the name of the talented woman of the merchant is even more noisy, every day there are nobles in the palace who call her to dance in their palace, and the merchant laments the lack of entertainment life of the people in the palace at the same time, but also has to be exhausted, sometimes have to rush to several places a day, this kind of day has to continue until the day of leaving the palace before stopping.
Sitting in the carriage out of the palace, looking at the things rewarded by the nobles in the baggage, the merchants are a little funny, these nobles in the palace, the days are really difficult, as soon as something new happens, everyone seems to be gathered to see the fresh, the momentum makes her look a little shocked, the high position is naturally some privileges, those with a slightly lower rank in order to let her play first, but really did not reward her with things, but let her make a lot of money, these things are not good but also made inside, compared to the outside, how can there be more extravagance, and the materials are all goodAlthough it can't be sold, it's good to keep it for yourself.
Before leaving the palace, the merchant picked out some jewelry from the baggage and gave it to Qin Yue and Liu Xianglian, as well as the sisters who had danced together in the palace. Deng Tong wore a casual dress and sent everyone outside the palace gate, and when he broke up with Ruyi, both of them were a little uncomfortable, Ruyi's eyes were even more red, and tears were about to fall.
Shang Shangshang saw Ruyi's eyes red, and he couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said with relief: "Will the two of you have a long life in the future?" What tears are you shedding at this time? ”
"Shangshang, you also know that Deng Tong is serving in the palace, and he doesn't know how much time he will have, I ---- I'm really afraid!" Ruyi's eyes were full of tears, she had been in the Fengyue Field for a long time, and now it was easy to have someone who looked at the right eye, but the two places were separated, how could she bear it?
Deng Tong was also a little unbearable when he saw it, but because he was at the gate of the palace, he had to force the love in his heart, gently pulled Ruyi's hand, pinched it, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
"You don't have to worry, after I go back, I'll go to Lu Duzhi to discuss and see if there is any way to transfer me to Luoyang, if it can be done, won't we be together again?" When you cry like this, my heart is very uncomfortable. Deng Tong whispered in Ruyi's ear.
Ruyi blushed shyly, gently pushed Deng Tong, and glanced at him coquettishly, which couldn't help but amuse the businessman.
"That's it! You don't have to worry, Deng Tong will take care of these things, you! Let's settle down! You need to remember that if the love between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight? Shang Shang looked at Ruyi playfully, a little funny of her coquettish appearance, where was the pungent look when she first arrived at Yunshuifang? Now she has truly become a woman in love, with a tender appearance!
"Shangshang, what you said is very good, if the relationship between the two is long, how can it be in the morning and twilight!" Deng Tong's eyes lit up, it was said in the palace that he had always believed only half of it, but now the casual words of the merchant made him feel amazing, and it really spoke to his heart.
Shang Shang looked at Deng Tong with a stunned face, and then remembered with some embarrassment that this sentence seemed to be a sentence in Song Ci, and he hurriedly prevaricated and laughed dryly.
Ruyi glared at Shang Shang and said, "What are you laughing at?" I love that! I don't care, you can't send me the words you sang to Concubine Yang, you must fill this out and leave it to me, I want to have these two sentences in it! ”
The merchant laughed and said, "Does it have to be this?" You can't change it! To be honest, she didn't remember the word too clearly, and it took a lot of effort to think about it, and she wasn't sure she could remember it.
"No! That's it! Ruyi pouted, and his face was full of coquettishness.
Deng Tong looked at Ruyi playing petty at the businessman with a conniving face, and was glad that she was finally no longer so sad.
"My good sister! Am I still not going to be able to promise you? Shang Shang looked at Ruyi with a frustrated face, and wanted to smoke himself to death, why did he have more than that mouth?
"That's it! Still reluctant? Time to go! Linglong sat in the car and called out to the three people standing next to the car, the smile on his face couldn't be hidden, this Ruyi can really toss people, plainly, where to ask the businessman to fill in the first word?
"Get in the car!" Deng Tong persuaded the two of them, although they were reluctant, there will always be a time to meet in the future, since he promised Ruyi, he will definitely do his best to rely on her!
Reluctantly glanced at Deng Tong, and finally ruthlessly, pulled the merchant into the carriage, opened the curtain in the car and said to Deng Tong: "You go back!" It's getting hot. ”
Deng Tong stood aside and said, "I'll watch you go." After speaking, he waved his hand towards Ruyi, and there was some moisture in his eyes.
Ruyi lowered the curtain, tears in his eyes, and the merchant sighed and said to the coachman: "Let's go!" "If you don't leave, when you get out of the city, I'm afraid that you won't be able to find a place to stay at night.
The carriage of Yunshuifang drove away from the palace gate in the carriage that came to pick up the singers of each fang, Ruyi still couldn't help but open the curtain, and watched Deng Tong's figure get farther and farther away in sight, until he was gone, and then he put it down in amazement.
Because the merchant was invited by Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, to visit his mansion, the carriage of Yunshuifang quickly separated from the carriages of other squares and turned into another fork in the road.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of the Patriotic Mansion, and the merchant jumped out of the carriage, put the prayer sticker in his sleeve together with his own, held it in his hand, and walked up the stairs to the gate inlaid with copper nails, and knocked lightly on the knocker.
The red-lacquered door opened, and a porter wearing a small hat showed his head, looked the merchant up and down, and said in a humming voice: "Is there something wrong?" ”
The merchant handed over the worship sticker in his hand and said: "The slave family is a Luoyang singer merchant, the day before yesterday in the palace, Meng Weiguo Gong did not give up, invited the slave family to come to the house to talk, today just out of the palace, then come to the house to visit, this is the worship sticker." ”
The porter heard this, and looked at the merchant with some suspicion, took the sticker and took a look, but saw a very delicate pink sticker, and a gilded thorn, opened it to see, it was the worship of his own lord Wei Guogong Li Jing, the porter immediately looked at the merchant a few points, although he didn't understand what his master did to hand over such a valuable sticker to a singer, but the master must have his reason for doing things, and they are the next people, and it is inconvenient to ask more.
hugged his fist at the merchant, and the porter asked the merchant to wait outside the door for a while, and then he took two pieces of worship and went into the inner courtyard.
The merchant thought that he handed over the post, but the porter might not reply immediately, so he would have an excuse to take the carriage back to Luoyang directly, but he didn't think about it, the porter did not have the arrogance of the seven-rank official in front of the prime minister, and he really took the bow and went back, so that the merchant had to wait outside.
Ruyi and the others opened the curtain a little worriedly, but saw the merchant waiting in front of the door, seeing Ruyi and the others a little worried, the merchant smiled at Ruyi and the others sitting in the carriage, signaling that it was okay, Ruyi put down the curtain with confidence, and sat in the car and waited for her to come back.
