20 Keys

Li Jing and the dragon robe rushed out of the Taiji Palace, and in the morning the thick fog filled all parts of the palace, and the road was very unclear, Li Jingsui followed behind, and did not reply.

The little eunuchs who led the way and held the lamp, and the little eunuchs who held the fan didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, after all, it was a matter of losing their heads, on weekdays, the emperor was very easy to get along with, but the companion was like a tiger, this is true, Li Jing was angry, maybe only Li Jing, the king of Yan, dared to go up and say a few words.

After arriving at the vertical arch hall, Li Jing seemed to have just dissipated his anger, today is a small court meeting, it stands to reason that the officials of various ministries should come at the right time, participate in the court meeting, participate in the governor's affairs, and now it is only a moment in the morning, the time is still early, but the emperor Li Jing came first.

When he arrived at the side hall, the old emperor straightened his clothes, put on the bright dragon robe, and after retiring from the palace maids and eunuchs who were serving beside him, he pulled Li Jingsui to sit beside him.

"Jing Sui! You have also seen that the prince is so unusable, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are forming parties for personal gain, which makes this court a miasma, and how many people can do practical things? The only person I can rely on is you!"

"I persuaded the imperial brother before, rectify the rule of officials, and the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, but now the disadvantages are so redundant that it is out of control, and the imperial brother should have listened to me in the first place!" Li Jingsui was in front of Li Jing, naturally he was not an outsider, so he had something to say.

"I regret it! Jing Sui, I'm confused! I think they can't afford to make any waves, but it's wrong! Jingsui, the situation was still under control before, but once the news of this Xinjiang happens, the DPRK and China will be chaotic, and my Li clan is in danger!" Li Jing didn't care about the majesty of the emperor, and now he was like a child who was in a hurry.

"Blockade the news, but to do the worst, the news of the new Song Dynasty sending troops into Shu will not spread until half a month later, we must not sit still, start in advance, and stop the war with force, at that time, the DPRK and China will eradicate it in one fell swoop, and the next thing is to confront the New Song Dynasty and defend according to the river, this is the best result!"

Resolute and capable, Li Jingsui said his thoughts, he knew that Li Jing would do what he said one by one, if it went well, the Southern Tang Dynasty would exist for decades, or even longer.

"Stop fighting with force? Isn't it too risky?" Li Jing naturally knew the gap between the Southern Tang Dynasty and the New Song Dynasty, and he was too risky.

"Not with the New Song Dynasty, but with Wu Yue, Min ......"

The old emperor Li Jing listened, frowned, very puzzled, the two countries are small countries, both submit to the Southern Tang Dynasty, every year near the tribute, there is no difference, even Jinling has two protons, a few days ago at the Xingqing Palace banquet also saw the two of them, one is the second prince of Fujian, the other is the prince of Wu Yue.

"Although we surrender, we are still in a foreign country, and we can't guarantee that when the new Song Dynasty comes to attack, they won't stab us in the back, so let's strike first!"

"Oh......" Li Jing replied with a long sigh, remembering the words in the Taiji Hall before, Li Jing suddenly became cheerful, it turned out that the first strike refers to the two countries, not the new Song Dynasty.

"Then call the second brother who is on the border of southern Xinjiang to do it, and take him by surprise!" Li Jing said again, if you talk about the understanding of southern Xinjiang, it must be the second Li Conggu, who has been in the border for more than ten years, Wu Yue, and Fujian have dealt a lot, and it can be said that he knows everything about it.

"There is more than enough to fight on the border, but this war is not his strong point, I think the old man An is the best!"

"Old man?" Li Jing squinted his eyes and thought about it carefully, it turned out to be that old guy, probably in his seventies! That's a character from the Tang Dynasty.

"I'm going to send Grandpa An Guo to preside over the overall situation, but before that, we still have to act in a play, so that people can't see the flaws!"

"Acting?"

"Yes, acting!" Li Jingsui smiled slightly, as if everything was under his control.

…………

At that time, the fog has gradually dissipated, the early merchants, the officials looking for the street, the drunken son, the gambler who did not return all night, there are many people on the street in this early morning, all kinds and all kinds of people, the officials scolded and scolded the drunken sons who fell to the ground, and the young masters pulled them back to the county office one by one, waiting for them to wake up, and then go home.

"Where did you go?"

"Right at the end of the alley!"

"Why don't you wake me up!"

"It was still early, and I was afraid that you would be listless all day, so I wanted you to sleep a little longer!"

"Young master, why do you get up so early, it's not like this on weekdays!"

"Your young master, I was drunk yesterday and slept for a long time!"

"Oh...... I forgot about that, so let's go wash my face and have breakfast!"

The conversation between the two seemed to be so real forever, so undetouring, washing their faces, several people sat around a small table, one carrying a small bench, waiting for breakfast.

First, a basket of white flour steamed buns, then four bowls of gruel, and finally a large bowl of pickled dried radish.

"Li Shuangshuang, why do you want to deduct our food, why do we only eat radish?"

"It's good to have steamed buns, why do you dislike my pickled radish?"

"I can't swallow the steamed buns dry."

"Isn't there gruel there? I deliberately made it a little thinner so that I could swallow it!"

"Why are you so lazy? Do we deserve to eat this from morning to night? ”

"Otherwise! If you talk again, you won't even have to eat steamed buns!" Li Shuangshuang grabbed a steamed bun and stuffed it into her mouth, the soft steamed bun made a loud noise in her mouth, as if this steamed bun had the same hatred as Li Shuangshuang.

"Heh......" Xiong Da has nothing to say, every day for this to eat, there is no less quarrel with Li Shuangshuang, but in general, it is himself who suffers, steamed bread is steamed bread, it is better than nothing.

Xiong Er ate it with relish on the side, with pickled radish, and the bite was also loud, and it was very crispy.

Li Congjia didn't touch the pile of steamed buns, after all, it was for two people who had to do work, and he, a person who had nothing to do and basked in the sun every day, didn't need to eat so much.

This porridge is indeed very thin, you can see the rice grains at the bottom of the bowl, this dried radish is a little salty, but with the porridge to drink, the taste is just right, a bite down, it is also a loud sound, it is simply crispy.

So, on the table, Li Shuangshuang and Xiong stared widely, no one was convinced, Xiong Er was eating his own, Li Congjia was a little slow, half a pickled radish, a mouthful of gruel, never more, not less, biting one bite at a time, drinking one bite at a time.

This breakfast is over like this, and there is something in the stomach, which is still good.

Seeing Li Shuangshuang cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, she looked very skilled, after all, she had been doing this work for more than ten years.

Li Congjia watched from the sidelines, holding his head and looking at this little girl, obviously the youngest, but the pillar of the family, for more than ten years, she has to take care of three "children".

"Shuang'er, are you going to bargain with that old gentleman later?"

"That's natural, his price is set so high, of course we can't suffer this loss, I've already thought about it, go every day, annoy the old man to death, see how long he can last!"

"It's not good to do this......" Li Congjia pursed his lips, scratched his head, and said.

"What's wrong, I didn't do anything hurtful!"

"You are not welcome to the old gentleman!"

"I know, when I get the shop, I'll never talk to him again!"

"You just want a shop and a restaurant?"

Li Shuangshuang tilted his head and looked at Li Congjia, "Of course!"

Then, he took the dishes and chopsticks he had packed up to the kitchen, and when he was finished, he stuck out his head, "You two, do a good job for me, and strive to get my new stove for me as soon as possible, the room is dark and can't see anything clearly!"

When Li Shuangshuang washed the dishes and came out, he untied the apron he used for cooking, and then went out to reason with the old man.

"Li Shuangshuang, give you the key!" When Li Shuangshuang was on his way, Li Congjia handed over the key he got in the morning to Li Shuangshuang.

"What is this?" Li Shuangshuang took the somewhat rusty key and asked.

"You've always wanted it, that shop!"

Li Shuangshuang frowned slightly, then stretched, and then rushed out of the yard like a wild horse, and in less than a few breaths, she ran back again, shouting and screaming, like some kind of hysteria, crazy.

"Ah......h

There was a howl on Wutong Street in the early morning, and people really couldn't understand what was going on, and even those who were drunk were excited, looked left and right, and continued to get drunk.

The old gentleman next door spit out a mouthful of tea and listened with his ears pricked up, "Is the girl next door calling?" ”

"Seems to be, sir!"

"Oh!" The old gentleman answered, and continued to drink his morning tea.

Li Shuangshuang ran back and forth in the yard, howling, and couldn't stop, "I have a shop, I have a shop......"

Li Congjia watched from the side, looking at this ecstatic little girl, how long has she not been like this now, thinking, Li Congjia also smiled, just like some people got the gift they always wanted, the sugar gourd of the child, the fame of the reader, and the money in the eyes of the gambler are all what they want in their eyes.

Li Shuangshuang is different, she has always wanted to have a shop, be a shopkeeper by herself, and make a lot of money, she held the key high, screaming and shouting in her mouth, and she was happy in her heart.

After waiting for a long time, maybe he was tired, Li Shuangshuang stopped, his whole little face was flushed, sweat was hidden between his temples, and he was really tired.

"Come here, rest for a while! Look you're sweating all over your head!" Li Congjia pulled Li Shuangshuang to sit down, helped her wipe her sweat, and at the end, helped her fan her with her sleeves to make her cooler.

"Young master, I have a shop!"

"Well, I know, earlier, the old gentleman gave me the rent of the shop at the market price."

"Did he give in?"

"Seems so!"

"Hahahaha......" Li Shuangshuang stood up again, "I'm going to make fun of him." ”

Before Li Congjia could speak again, she slipped out of the door and headed towards the old gentleman's courtyard.

Then, I heard the angry voice of the old gentleman in the courtyard next door.
