Chapter 99: Qu Tushou
For one night, Pear Blossom was nervous and depressed! Although she didn't believe Yuan Shoucheng's words, she didn't dare to ask Li Ke, for fear that this beautiful life would be ruined! In the end, she still chose to deny Yuan Shoucheng's words......
After Yuan Shoucheng calculated Li Ke's birthday, what made Pear Blossom so frightened and depressed?
……
On the second day, Li Ke surprisingly didn't sleep lazy, and got up early to eat snacks! Although Pear Blossom chose to deny Yuan Shoucheng's calculations, she was still worried in her heart, she didn't close her eyes last night, and finally figured out that what she liked was the person in front of her, and she didn't dare to ......
Just because Li Ke got up early, the three daughters of Pear Blossom also laughed at Li Ke loudly, Bai Yurou directly said that Li Ke This is the eldest girl worshipping heaven and earth, the first time! Startled, Li Ke squirted all the eggs in his mouth......
"Rou'er...... Who did you learn these ...... from" Li Ke suddenly changed his words, and said with a little meaning: "Don't follow Qing'er to learn some things that are indiscriminate......"
Li Qing was stunned for a moment, and immediately said angrily: "Husband! Why did you call learning from me? I slept with you last night, ......" suddenly realized that there was something inappropriate to say this, so he said to Bai Yurou: "Third sister! You said! Did the second sister teach you these things? ”
"Ahh No...... I learned this from others......" Bai Yurou said embarrassedly, she didn't expect that she would say something casually, and something almost happened......
"Oh...... Husband missed you...... Fast! Let's eat! Li Ke chewed the cake in his mouth, beckoned the three girls to hurry up and eat, and forcibly let the reluctant Li Qing sit down......
Li Qing chewed the food in her mouth and muttered, "Husband! Why do you think that these words were taught by Qing'er to Sister Rou? ”
"Oh...... You're a princess, and someone must have taught you literacy, calligraphy, etiquette, and so on when you were a child! And Rou'er's words are a bit like ...... The group of Confucian children who were full of food and had nothing to do said! So...... My husband thinks you taught her! ”
Hearing Li Ke say this, Li Qing hurriedly said: "My husband can say this here, don't say that when you go out, don't say that about Confucianism!" ...... will be participated"
"Uh-huh......"
……
After eating, Li Ke wanted to go out for a walk and see the situation in Luoyang! Before he walked out of the gate, he saw Shi Quanhai walk in!
"Xiaguan meets Master Li!"
"Hmm!" Li Ke answered, looked at Shiquanhai, and saw that he was wearing plain clothes today! It's so ordinary, you can't really see it if you don't look closely!
Although Li Ke was puzzled, he still asked with a smile: "Lord Shi is a little different today?" How? Is Lord Shi so poor? Not even a decent piece of clothing! ”
"Uh...... The lord laughed, the lower official wore this dress today, and he actually went to inquire about the situation to the adult......"
Shi Quanhai looked embarrassed, Li Ke thought to himself, even if you go to inquire about the situation, you won't dress up like this, right? Look...... There was a hole in it, and it looked like a beggar......
"Oh? Thank you so much, Lord Shi! I don't know if Lord Stone...... Did you find it? ”
Yo! That's pretty fast! Yes, a sensible man! Shi Quanhai hurriedly said: "Xiaguan has found three shops in Nanshi, and the location is very superior!" ”
Li Ke was overjoyed and said, "Okay! Hahaha! You're doing a great job! "Take me there now! Shi Quanhai hurriedly walked out with Li Ke......
……
Luoyang City is in a mess, there are many beggars begging around, their clothes are very thin, wearing thin clothes in such cold weather, lying in the corner of the wall shivering...... There are a lot of middle-aged men in it......
Li Ke shook his head and said, "Let's go!" Take the official to see the shop first! ”
It's also a market place, with bustling crowds coming and going! The sound of yo ho is endless, and I can hear it very clearly! There are a lot of people, but there are very few small stalls selling things! This made Li Ke puzzled!
Follow Shi Quanhai to a restaurant, this restaurant is not big or small, like a building built by the modern new countryside, two stories high! All of them are wooden structures, located in a densely populated market, and it stands to reason that they should be popular, but there are no three or two people coming in and out!
"Master Pony! This is one of the shops that Xia Guan said! The location is very good, what do you think? Shi Quanhai smiled and introduced to Li Ke!
Li Ke asked puzzledly, "Lord Shi! The location of this restaurant is very advantageous, why are there so few people coming and going? ”
"Alas......"
Shi Quanhai sighed and muttered: "This matter has to start from the previous dynasty, there are too many strong men requisitioned, and many of them die on the battlefield!" Most of those who stayed were women! It stands to reason that this has been a long time coming, and the children have grown up! Coupled with the benevolence of my Son of Heaven, it is natural that agriculture will be restored, but for some reason...... But this group of people would rather be beggars than cultivate, and waste the fertile land......"
Li Ke pondered for a while and muttered, "Could it be that this group of people has lost hope in life? That's why you don't want to farm? It shouldn't be! Your Majesty has given them land, and they should be happy! Could it be ...... What's hidden in there? ”
"My lord! This! Just one of them! Shi Quanhai shook his head, quite helpless!
Li Ke was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Oh?!" What else is the reason? Let's talk about it together! ”
Shi Quanhai whispered: "This is the second one, which is the history of the Luoyang Thorn...... In fact, they all have land, but ...... Their land was expropriated! ”
"Ahh
Li Ke was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "This is the foot of the Son of Heaven, how dare this Luoyang assassin do this?" ”
"Nope! This Lord Thorn is not a fool, the land is expropriated and all the subordinates cultivated by the Thorn Shi! got the silver two thorns Shi Na got the big head, and if something happened, the stabbing history must have flashed aside! And...... The officials in Luoyang basically don't know about this, and the lower officials still heard the prefect Zuo Gang talk about it......"
Shi Quanhai whispered the ins and outs of the matter, and Li Ke understood! This assassination history is acquiesced in the dark, and those subordinates dare to occupy the fertile land so blatantly, in this case, even if the people go to sue, it will be sued to the prefect Zuo Gang and there will be no result!
"They didn't think about going to Chang'an to assassinate Shi and the prefect?" Li Ke muttered, but after finishing speaking, Li Ke secretly scolded himself for being stupid! Even if they go to sue, they may not be able to reach Chang'an alive, even if they are not robbed and killed halfway! Their physical condition may not be able to go, and even if they arrive in Chang'an, they will be escorted down by people in the dark!
Sure enough, Shi Quanhai explained the reason why they couldn't go to Chang'an, exactly the same as Li Ke thought!
Li Ke suddenly thought of something and said, "Since this is the case, then isn't he alone in this Luoyang?" Became a soil emperor? How daring! ”
"My lord took office late, and some officials are not very familiar with it and do not know it! Xia Guan also said that Lord Yu listened to ......" Shi Quanhai muttered: "This Luoyang assassination history is true, but there are still people above who suppress him!" Even if it is the emperor of the soil, it is just soil, and there is a prince in Luoyang...... It's Jiang Guogong Qu Tutong! ”
"Oh? Qu Tutong? Li Ke didn't have much impression of this person, so he could only nod!
"That's right! This Jiang Guogong should be the year of Pingtou Jiazi and Ershun this year! It's the governor of Luoyang! As soon as Shi Quanhai said this, Li Ke finally understood who this person was, this person was the person who fought against Li Yuan at that time, when Li Yuan raised troops and besieged Hedong, it was this person who defended the city and made Li Yuan have to make a detour to cross the west of the river!
Li Ke didn't say much, but glanced at the sign hanging at the door of the restaurant to sell the restaurant, and said, "Let's go!" Let's go inside first...... That's right! Don't reveal the identity of the official! ”
"Yes! Xia Guan understands! ”
……
As soon as he walked in, Li Ke looked around, there were not many people inside, 5 or 6 people were drinking tea, but not drinking and eating! Suddenly, a figure ran towards him! This person has just the right figure, not fat or thin, with a smiling face, and when he saw Li Ke at this time, the smile was even brighter!
"Guest officer...... Ah! Lord Stone! You're here today...... Hey! It turned out that this was the owner of the restaurant, and when he saw Li Ke, he hurriedly said hello, and suddenly saw the person behind Li Ke, and hurriedly greeted Shi Quanhai!
"Hmmm! But don't be too happy, this is the official...... Uh......" Shi Quanhai thought about how to introduce it? Let's talk about it...... Li Ke has a higher status than himself! That's a big deal...... Li Ke didn't let his identity be revealed!
Li Ke knew that Shi Quanhai was not sure of his position at this time, so he said with a smile: "Li is a good friend of Lord Shi, don't care about the shopkeeper, I came here this time, I heard that the shopkeeper wants to sell the restaurant, so ...... Let's take a look......"
"Ah...... Yes! Plum...... Brother Lee...... This one...... I fancy your restaurant, you said before, this restaurant ......"
"This restaurant is good...... Young Master Ben bought it!"
Li Ke and Shi Quanhai, who were introduced by this sentence, both changed their faces, thinking that there are really people who are not afraid of death! Li Ke and the three turned around to look, only to see a white-faced scholar wearing a hair crown walking in!
This white-faced scholar man is not very old and looks similar to Li Ke! It's just that he has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth, and a face like jade, but Li Ke is ...... compared to him Forehead...... There is no comparison!
In the weather in December, he was holding a folding fan in his hand! The folding fan is inlaid with gold and jade, and you can see that it is worth a lot of money at a glance! Wearing cotton clothes, his body is almost 1.8 meters long, and he doesn't look bloated at all! On the contrary, it seems very extravagant and stylish......
At this time, he looked at Li Ke and the three of them with a smile, this smile is really sunny and handsome, this is not girly!
Li Ke saw him look like this, and knew that he definitely couldn't compare to him! I saw him holding a folding fan in his hand again, and secretly scolded him for pretending to be x! It is undeniable that Li Ke is fortunate to have a strong heart, otherwise...... I'm really afraid that he will be forcibly bent......
"Oops! Little Grandpa Qu! What is the wind that is blowing you? The shopkeeper smiled as cute as a pug, and hurriedly stepped forward to compliment him!
Shi Quanhai was also taken aback, and immediately recognized who this person was! This is the eldest son of Qu Tutong, the famous governor of Luoyang and Jiang Guogong - Qu Tushou!
