Li An knew that the two roads in front of him could not be followed, and the only thing he could do was to let the emperor take back his order, that is, disobedience and disrespect, however, this disobedience was not an open disobedience, and there was no damage to the emperor's majesty, only a few people knew, it was a tactful refusal, and it could be seen that the emperor did not really want the Yang family to get this property, otherwise, it would have been given to them directly a long time ago, where would Li An be responsible, but in order to make the concubine happy, he casually asked Lao Chen to come over and say a word.

Moreover, after so many years and so many good things, it is not difficult to coax the concubine casually.

As soon as he thought of this, Li An felt that Jiang was still old and spicy, and it was estimated that the emperor had already had this intention and let himself find a way to meet the requirements of the concubine, however, Li An was a little worried, if the requirements of the concubine and her sisters were too high and they couldn't meet them, wouldn't it be bad.

Yang Yuhuan and the Yang sisters have been favored by the emperor over the years, and they can give whatever they want, it is estimated that their appetite has long been raised, if they don't show a little strength, it is really not easy to satisfy them.

"What, you want to compensate the Yang family in other ways, what way, can you tell me?"

Chen Xuanli asked curiously.

Li An shook his head lightly and said, "I haven't completely thought of the specific method, but it will definitely satisfy the concubine and her sisters." ”

"You're so confident that you can satisfy them?"

Chen Xuanli smiled informally.

Li An straightened his chest and replied confidently: "With my strength, I can't satisfy a few of them, Lao Chen, just look at it!" ”

"Okay, since you said so, then I'm relieved, you're busy! I'm going to report to Your Majesty, hahaha! ”

Chen Xuanli left happily.

Looking at Chen Xuanli's walking posture and the clothes he was wearing, the more he looked at it, the more awkward he felt, it is estimated that he was trying to hide people's eyes! Ang Lee bet that he would definitely change his clothes first, and then he would go to see the emperor.

On the side of Penglai Pond, the emperor and the concubine are enjoying the scenery, the weather in the afternoon is very good, the sun is shining, very suitable for the formation of artificial rainbows, after the emperor comes, the fountain has been opened, so that they can enjoy this beautiful scenery, and in the usual suitability, the fountain is not often opened, after all, this power consumption is really not small, if the equipment is too right, it will be damaged, even the palace can not be so wasteful, when the emperor and the concubine appeared, a little waste is also said in the past, but if no one is there, It would be a waste to open the fountain for nothing.

In any era, waste is a very shameful thing, generally only the powerful are qualified to waste, ordinary people are absolutely not qualified, in the worldview of the poor, waste is to be punished by God, is absolutely not allowed behavior.

In the two-person world of the emperor and the concubine, naturally no third person can intervene, including the eunuchs and palace maids who are responsible for serving, and they are all at a certain distance, so when the emperor and the concubine say something in a whisper, others will not be able to hear it.

"Gao Gong, I have come to report to Your Majesty."

Chen Xuanli entered the palace and met Gao Lishi fifty steps away from the emperor.

Gao Lishi asked expressionlessly: "General Chen, things have been done like this, can you talk to the Sprinkle family first." ”

Chen Xuanli nodded and said the matter again, but he didn't hide much, and basically reported it truthfully.

After listening to this, Gao Lishi nodded with satisfaction and said: "The matter is done well, it is the result of Your Majesty's want, this Li An can understand what Your Majesty means, and it makes the Sprinkle family very happy!" It's also saved to let the Sprinkle family go to remind. ”

After speaking, he smiled and stretched out his hand to let Chen Xuanli in.

"Your Majesty, General Chen is back, waiting outside?"

When the distance was less than ten steps, Chen Xuanli stopped outside the pavilion, and Gao Lishi went in to report.

Yang Yuhuan was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "San Lang, it must be done." ”

"How do you know it's done, and if it's done?"

Li Longji said with a smile.

"Impossible, if things are not done well, General Chen can come back so quickly, what kind of people are the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, Your Majesty can not know."

Yang Yuhuan said happily.

Li Longji nodded with a smile and asked loudly, "Chen Xuanli, the matter is done." ”

When Chen Xuanli heard the emperor's words, he hurriedly took a few steps forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know if it's a good job." ”

"What do you mean you don't know if it's done or not, why do I sound a little confused?"

Li Longji asked.

"Your Majesty, Li Shilang said, the matter of the battery workshop, he has already told the businessmen as a Tang Shilang, it is to compete fairly, this matter Li An's ordinary people and the Hu people from outside know it, if you regret it, it will damage the prestige of the Tang Dynasty officials and be unfavorable to the Tang Dynasty, so Li Shilang will never dare to obey his fate."

When Yang Yuhuan heard this, he naturally felt a sense of loss in his heart, but what Chen Xuanli said also made sense, if Li An did something contrary for the sake of their Yang family, it would not only damage Li An's personal reputation, but also lower the image of the Tang Dynasty officials, and Yang Yuhuan obviously cared more about the former, she still liked Li An very much from the bottom of her heart, and it was not clear why she was exact, anyway, she was very favorable.

Before, she didn't know about this matter at all, her three sisters just asked her to blow the pillow wind for the emperor and fight for a benefit for the Yang family, and didn't tell her about it.

"Since everyone in the world knows about it, it can't be forced, it seems that General Chen ran away in vain this time."

Yang Yuhuan said very openly, without a trace of anger in his expression.

This not only made Chen Xuanli stunned, but also surprised Li Longji, he didn't expect to solve the problem with such an easy sentence.

Chen Xuanli felt that the concubine was too reasonable, much better than her sisters, and Li Longji was also very surprised, this concubine was not so easy to coax before, and this time it was too easy.

"Your Majesty, my three sisters are too, they didn't tell the truth, if they knew about it, they didn't have to let General Chen run for nothing."

Yang Yuhuan said apologetically.

Chen Xuanli hurriedly said: "The concubine is serious, it is the duty of a courtier to do things for His Majesty, even if he breaks his leg, the minister has no complaints." ”

Li Longji suddenly understood, the concubine still doesn't know anything? This also shows that he didn't hurt her in vain, she is too sensible, and she knows how to advance and retreat.

"Chen Xuanli, what did you mean by what you just said, I don't know if you have done it? What the hell does Ang Lee have in mind? ”

Li Longji asked.

Chen Xuanli replied truthfully: "Your Majesty, Li Shilang said that there will be good things for the concubine soon, which will definitely satisfy the concubine Niangniang, and may be able to make up for the matter of the battery workshop." ”

"Good stuff, what a good thing!"

Li Longji asked.

Chen Xuanli shook his head lightly and said: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know very well, Li Shilang he refuses to say, but the minister believes Li Shilang, since he said so, there should be no problem." ”

"How long will Hongu wait?"

Yang Yuhuan asked.

"This, I was in a hurry just now, I forgot to ask, it should be soon! Your Majesty, the minister can go again. ”

Chen Xuanli said.

Li Longji shook his head and said, "No need, you go back and rest!" ”

"The minister retired."

"Barbar, what kind of gift do you think Ang Lee will prepare for you?"

After Chen Xuanli left, Li Longji asked.

Yang Yuhuan thought for a while, shook his head and said, "San Lang, what gift he can prepare, I really can't guess, I'll know in a few days." ”

"It's really reasonable, but I think this gift will be very special, and maybe it's still an industry, and it can be handed over to your three sisters to run when the time comes, so that you can make up for the battery workshop."

Li Longji said.

"If that's the case, then I'm going to tell my sisters to stop competing for the battery workshop and save money for new projects."

Yang Yuhuan said.

"What if what Ang Lee gave was just an ordinary gift? Your sisters will not lose greatly. ”

"San Lang, they are just greedy and insufficient, there is a profanity workshop, in fact, they have already earned a lot, and this is worried about the battery workshop, if there is a project in the future, they will definitely ask for it, and Your Majesty doesn't have to be too accustomed to them."

Yang Yuhuan said.

Li Longji took it into his arms with satisfaction, looked at Yang Yuhuan with old and doting eyes, and said: "My barbarism is really reasonable, what do you want to eat at night?" ”

"Whatever San Lang wants to eat, I want to eat?"

Yang Yuhuan said very flatteringly, which made Li Longji very excited, and he had the feeling of being young.

Since he promised to give the concubine a gift, of course Ang Li can't break his promise, and besides, he has to satisfy the concubine.

What should I give to the concubine? Moreover, it can also form an industry.

Li An thought for a while, and suddenly had an inspiration, so he didn't dare to develop the craftsmen of the center, and directly ran to the mountains outside the city with more than a hundred guards.

"Li Shilang, what are you asking us to bring so many bamboo baskets for, are you trying to catch fish? You shouldn't come to the mountains to catch fish! Should go down the river."

After arriving in the mountains, the guards looked at Li An with a suspicious expression.

More than a hundred guards, each with a fish basket, was out of the city, bought on the side of the road, all brand new fish baskets, in fact, Li An did not plan to buy a fish basket, after all, Li An did not plan to catch fish, and the reason why he bought this was because he encountered it on the road, and the structure of the fish basket fully met Li An's needs and had a strong loading capacity.

Li An looked at the chrysanthemums all over the mountains, and said excitedly: "You are all very good, today's task is to pick flowers, pick chrysanthemums, as long as the flowers, not branches and leaves, everyone must work hard for me, to fill the fish basket in my hand, whoever finishes first will be rewarded." ”

After saying that, he waved his hand and asked the guards to go to work immediately.

Naturally, the guards did not dare to disobey, and scattered around to pick chrysanthemums.

"You say, what does Li Shilang want so many chrysanthemums for?"

"Why do you ask so much, we just pick."

"I think it's to bathe the lady, and the wife of the rich family has to use flower petals for the bath."

"It's too extravagant to add flower petals to take a bath! But that doesn't take that much! ”

"Yes! This fish basket is quite large, more than 100 fish baskets, and you can't use so much for bathing! Moreover, I haven't heard of chrysanthemums in the bath, there are a lot of roses, so what about the flowers? ”

"Hey! Let's pick it! We are all guards, and we are actually allowed to pick flowers, this matter must not be spread, if the guys of Long Wujun know, it is estimated that they can laugh at us for a whole year, and the face will really be lost. ”

"Be quiet, Li Shilang is here."

These are rough people, and they are usually very good at fighting guards, but they are really not very good at letting them pick flowers, because they are not born to do this, and they are not very willing to do this in their hearts.

"What are you rubbing about? Before dark, everyone must fill the basket, and who can't finish it, and is not allowed to sleep at night, say you? ”

Li An saw that five or six people were gathered to chat, and the speed of work was very slow, so he reprimanded him loudly.

The task is so heavy, these guys still dare to get together to chat, this is the rhythm of not wanting to work, if they don't work seriously, before dark, they will definitely be difficult to rush back.

Although Ang Lee is not afraid of walking at night, however, walking at night is also very bad, unless it is absolutely necessary, Ang Lee doesn't want to go back after dark, go back as soon as possible, the sooner the better.

After being reprimanded by Li An, the guards no longer dared to work in groups of three or five while chatting, and the speed of work had accelerated a lot, and it looked like that was the case.

Looking at the serious work of these young men, Li An was quite happy in his heart, no matter what his ability was, an obedient guard was a good guard, and there was no battle to fight anyway, and picking flowers could be regarded as cultivating sentiment.

And the reason why Ang Lee asked the soldiers to pick flowers was naturally to make a small gift for Yang Yuhuan, and she would definitely like this small gift.

The small gift that Li An said is a perfume made of flower petals, which is a very common feminine product in later generations, and in the era of the Tang Dynasty, there is no such high-end goods, but there are a lot of incense powders, but unfortunately it is far from being comparable to the fragrance, after all, perfume is obtained after refining, all of them are the essence of flowers, as long as you spray a little bit of fragrance, you can fragrance far away.

For the gift of perfume, Li An has enough confidence, he believes that Yang Yuhuan will be very satisfied after receiving this gift, which can increase the charm of women, especially for stinky women, perfume is a necessity of life.

In addition, perfume refining requires a certain technology, if there is no professional equipment and instruments, it is difficult to control the quality of the fragrance, the most important thing is the concentration, just like the ancient wine, at most a dozen degrees of intensity, and the later generations of civilized society, liquor above 50 degrees have been very common, this is because the ancient purification means are not high enough, and the later generations of alcohol purification technology is smart.
