Chapter Eighty-Six: Take the beautiful girl to Chang'an
After seizing the moral high ground, Li Xian's expression became generous and sincere, full of tears.
It is worthy of the results of several rehearsals, and Li Ran even prepared onion water for him, for fear that he would not be able to cry.
"Your Majesty, the sons and daughters built this palace to ask the immortal family to bless their mother."
Here's a more dignified reason to shut up the officials.
"Immortal blessing?"
Wu Zetian was quite moved, not to mention the effect, this filial piety alone is a good thing.
"Li Ran, what the prince said, can it be realized?"
Of course, for such a large project as the palace, the people's and material resources must be considered as a whole, and it is more appropriate to ask the authorities.
Just asked Li Ran, is this different from a weasel catching a chicken, and asking another weasel if the chicken should be hairy?
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare to assert it."
Li Ran simulates two things, the wingman is a technical job, if it is affirmed on the spot, it is clear that he is singing a double reed, if he denies it, maybe Wu ZenaΓ―ve will take his opinion as the standard, and the matter is only funny when it is yellow.
You have to take it step by step, let her take the bait a little deeper and then close the net.
"The things of the gods have something in common with mortals, pay attention to sincerity and spirit, when the palace is completed, if the prince sincerely touches the heavens, it is also possible for the gods to bless."
"So, the key is whether the prince is sincere!"
Li Ran's voice was loud, with a hint of hidden excitement...... His routine has reached the most critical step.
Come on, old man, show 'sincerity'!
"Your Majesty, the sons and daughters have thoughts and dreams day and night, it seems that in the dark, there are gods whispering in their ears, saying that when building this palace, things related to the gods are placed in it, such as murals, utensils, etc., which can satisfy the gods and may attract good fortune."
"Oh? How can these things be easily collected? Wu Zetian was really interested.
"What the emperor thinks about is that the ministers should fast and pray, chant scriptures in the White Horse Temple from time to time, and pray for the gods to give the immortals related utensils, which are listed in the palace."
Li Ran knelt down on his knees and said resolutely, "I also ask my mother to agree, in this palace, the sons and daughters will collect the money, and they don't need the treasury to move a penny." β
At the end of the performance, I scored ninety-nine points, one less point because I was afraid that this old man would be proud.
Collecting immortal artifacts is naturally a cover for Li Ran to create props for eating, drinking and having fun, and pushing these things that have never been seen in the Tang Dynasty to the name of immortal artifacts, and the flickering effect is very good.
On the surface, Li Xian spent a lot of time in the temple and gave up the right to control the prison country, but at the same time, it also paralyzed Wu Zetian's vigilance.
Anyway, whatever motion he proposes now has been vetoed by one vote, so it is better to grasp the big and let go of the small, and only take the disposal of a few key affairs.
Look at this demeanor, action and expression, it fits perfectly, if it weren't for Li Ran's lines in advance, I would almost have to believe it.
The hundred officials praised again and again, this Weng and his son-in-law, what a good person, one repairs a mausoleum and a cultivation palace, they all pay out of their own pockets, they are simply a model of courtiers.
ββ¦β¦ It's rare that you have this filial piety, okay, I allowed it. β
Wu Zetian was full of face, very satisfied with his good senses, thinking that there were many palaces and there was nothing bad, so he generously agreed.
Very well, this girl is making great strides in the direction of 'not thinking about it'.
This palace is naturally the 'play' and 'fun' in the eating, drinking and merrymaking plan.
Li Ran smiled and invested 50,000 fiat currency in a familiar project.
"You have invested in a 'compound square', this investment project is a self-selected investment, which requires the investor to provide a certain land area, and select the type of building owned by the square in advance, and after providing materials, it can have the corresponding building function after the completion of the construction within the specified time, and keep it permanently!"
The miracle of Feng Chantai, why not replicate it again.
What is Li Ran going to do this time...... It is the Tang version of Fangte Oriental Mythology Paradise!
Cheng Bo took the engineering team to calm down the site overnight, and the work was in full swing, and the officials praised it again after knowing it, and looked at the implementation strength, which is worthy of being a project for his mother.
Of course, this time Li Ran did not sing the leading role.
Cheng Bo, who has construction drawings, is enough, and he still has his own job...... The sooner the construction starts, the better.
Therefore, it is necessary to take a trip to Chang'an.
No matter how awesome Wu Zetian is, he will definitely be buried near the emperor's mausoleums in Chang'an after his death, otherwise under Jiuquan, he won't even be able to get together a pair to play mahjong.
Besides, only after he and Li Xian are separated, Wu Zetian's vigilance will be completely lowered, and he will no longer worry about what this stupid son will do.
Moreover, the three nests of cunning rabbits, the two core cities of the Tang Dynasty, one Chang'an and one Luoyang, this Luoyang city was pinched to death by Wu Zetian, Li Ran won the dominance of Chang'an, and only then did he have the political capital to give it a go.
Three birds with one stone, Chang'an walked.
The only problem is that the number one leader in Chang'an City is Zheng Su, a close confidant of King Liang, and if he doesn't get rid of this person, he can't get his hands on Chang'an's regime.
Wu Zetian warned Li Xian not to touch King Liang, so it would be difficult to clean up this Zheng Yu with the power of the crown prince to supervise the country, but fortunately, Li Ran also had a big helper.
On the carriage to Chang'an, one of them was resplendent and carved with sterling silver, which was extremely magnificent, and the interior was even more graceful and luxurious, and there was a smell of rose perfume.
Does this count as a woman's boudoir?
Li Ran had to admit that Princess Taiping did live exquisitely, but her smooth calves exposed outside, was she really deliberately seducing people?
"Auntie, it's cold, it's better to cover a blanket."
was pulled into the carriage by her, Li Ran was a little flustered...... In the face of a bold and seductive young woman, normal men reacted somewhat to a bit.
"Hmph, I'm so hot."
Princess Taiping not only did not restrain herself, but also deliberately straightened her legs, almost touching Li Ran's left hand.
The scene is so embarrassing, she shouldn't want to 'do things' in the car, right?
"If it's hot, the carriage can still open its windows." , Li Ran bounced up instantly, and once again separated the distance between the two by pulling the curtains.
ββ¦β¦ You're boring. β
Princess Taiping glanced at him, took a pillow and leaned on the carriage, stretching, "However, the craftsmanship is really good, this special carriage is the most comfortable I have ever sat in, and it is not bumpy at all." β
"That is, if you don't have a bit of craftsmanship, how can you invite your aunt to Chang'an?"
Li Ran said that the thugs who were invited with a lot of money always had to be treated more generously, and he easily found a ceramic bottle from the storage compartment in the carriage.
"Come, auntie, you can taste this fairy water."
"This is the fairy water you offered to the mother emperor before you left? Something called 'Coke'? β
Princess Taiping pecked lightly and frowned slightly, "The taste is okay, but it's a little pungent." β
"Drink once in a while, it helps to be appetizing."
Li Ran also poured a glass, sat opposite her, raised his glass and said, "I wish our trip to Chang'an a smooth one." β
"Excuse me, you haven't fulfilled your promise last time."
Princess Taiping snorted arrogantly, and didn't drink it, but was dissatisfied, "What about the four waiter positions I asked you to arrange?" β
