Chapter 884: Something Big

Li Zhongyi was in a good mood, and waited for the two little girls to disperse before he took a step and continued to walk leisurely in the garden.

Yang Xiaoyi, who has been quietly guarding his side, vigilantly observes every move around him, lest he miss the slightest abnormality. He is a confidant who has won Li Zhongyi's trust, not only is he qualified to carry a knife with him, but even, with Li Zhongyi's permission, he is also the only guard who can carry a bow into the backyard.

Don't look at Yang Xiaoyi's age, he has just turned twenty-three years old, but he is a warrior who has made great achievements in the throat camp, and there are no less than ten Khitan nobles who were cut off by him to receive merit.

Yang Xiaoyi entered the lecture hall for further study, and after the assessment was outstanding, he was transferred to his side by Li Zhongyi and served as the head of the guard class with a knife.

According to the rules, Li Zhongyi's official travel guard arrangement is divided into three levels, the outermost circle is the guards, the middle circle is the guard class, and the personal guard is Yang Xiaoyi. In addition, most of the houses along the route are occupied by secret sentry marksmen, so beware of sneak attacks with bows and crossbows from a distance.

However, Li Zhongyi has the bad problem of private interviews with Weifu, which has repeatedly caused Li Yunxiao and Yang Xiaoyi to feel a headache.

Li Yunxiao has persuaded me I don't know how many times, but Li Zhongyi still goes his own way, often sneaking out to shop from the side door when people are not paying attention.

Whenever this time is when Li Yunxiao and Yang Xiaoyi are extremely nervous, if Li Zhongyi has a case, the two of them will die.

Li Zhongyi walked around, and came to the side of the heated swimming pool specially built for him by Park Wanyang in order to make a big fuss. He glanced at the few maids who were bowing on their knees in front of the door, and when he saw the people around Caijiao, he waved his hand and signaled them to keep quiet.

Li Zhongyi walked to the door of the mist-filled house, and couldn't help but stop, looking thoughtfully at the blue sky and white clouds. Last time, it was here that he recognized the wrong person and recognized the Zheng family as Caijiao, and as a result, he achieved a bad fate.

"Hee-hee, mother, you're going to arrest me, you're going to arrest me...... I'm here......"

"Ghost girl, it's really naughty, the fog is too big, I can't see you......

In a trance, Li Zhongyi heard Caijiao's giggling sound from the pool, as well as Zheng's doting complaints.

Uh-huh, too much fog? Li Zhongyi's heart moved slightly, raised his chin slightly, waited for the maids by the door, and then bowed his knees and retreated quietly.

"You stay close and don't let anyone get even a step closer, understand?" Li Zhongyi turned his head and ordered Yang Xiaoyi.

Yang Xiaoyi kept his head down, and he didn't squeak, and after clasping his fists and saluting, he turned around and walked out dozens of steps away.

Li Zhongyi glanced at Yang Xiaoyi before entering the door, and saw that he was facing the main entrance of the pool, with his back against a big tree.

This kid has a few brushes, Li Zhongyi smiled with satisfaction, he used to be a famous doctor, not a special soldier, and the knowledge of special operations and training he mastered was also incomplete.

However, even if this is the case, among the warriors cultivated by Li Zhongyi himself, if Yang Xiaoyi is second, no one dares to claim to be the first.

With Yang Xiaoyi present, Li Zhongyi's original lack of heart disappeared without a trace, and he quietly touched into the pool shrouded in thick fog.

"Ghost girl, where are you? When I find you, see if I don't break your little ass......" Zheng's soft intimidating voice became a clear guide for Li Zhongyi to find his target.

Li Zhongyi stripped off his essence in two by three, quietly slipped into the pool water, and touched it in the direction of Zheng.

Because Li Zhongyi's water properties are excellent, this heated swimming pool is more than twice as large as a modern standard swimming pool. The swimming pool was chosen by the local Kanyu master of Kaijing, who first dug the hot spring pool, then built a wall, and then built an eaves roof. The design of the swimming pool is also very clever, with several culverts dug in the upper edge of the pool, which are connected to different large stove houses.

In the stove room, dozens of stoves have been erected, and the stoves are all specially cast large iron pots. There are three seasons in a year, and in order to maintain a constant temperature in the pool, the stove room is manned for twelve hours a day to boil and mix water.

Zheng was playing a game of peek-a-boo with her daughter, and she was immediately frightened, slapping the pool water with both hands, desperately trying to shout for help, but she couldn't shout, and almost cried.

Li Zhongyi was worried that Zheng's kicking and slapping sound would alarm Caijiao, who was hiding in the distance, so he simply covered her mouth and pressed her head into the water.

Because of his perennial insistence on swimming, Li Zhongyi is quite proficient in water, so he stuck Zheng's neck with his arm from behind, even if Zheng's hands were dancing and moving, he couldn't hurt half of his hair.

After Zheng choked a few mouthfuls of water due to panic, and the strength of the resistance weakened, Li Zhongyi held her head, surfaced, and said in a very low voice: "Don't make trouble, it's me, it's your man......" The right hand still covered her mouth firmly and powerfully.

Zheng didn't notice it for a while last time, and was given by Li Zhongyi in the water, and since then he has been occupied. After all, she was the person next to the pillow, and she couldn't be more familiar with Li Zhongyi's voice, so she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and immediately stopped struggling.

After Zheng coughed up all the water that had choked into his nasal cavity, Li Zhongyi let go of the hand covering his mouth and hugged her into his arms.

Li Zhongyi held her buttocks, pressed her against the edge of the pool, deliberately lowered his voice, and laughed: "I haven't seen her for a while, my buttocks have actually lost a little weight, hehe, I want a man, I owe it to clean up......"

Zheng obediently grabbed the man's neck, so ashamed that he was so hot that he covered his mouth and nose, and he didn't dare to squeak.

"Mother, you come to arrest me, you can't catch my ......"

With Caijiao's call and laughter, Zheng's fertile field, which had been abandoned for nearly half a year, was ploughed several times by Li Zhongyi.

When Zheng was completely paralyzed on the edge of the pool, Li Zhongyi quietly left the pool, after all, fornicating with Zheng was not a glorious thing.

Li Zhongyi knew in his heart that even if Caijiao knew about J's feelings, she had no choice but to accept the reality, but after all, it was better to cover it up.

On the way back, Li Zhongyi, who was light-footed, had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

The ancients were honest and did not deceive me! Sure enough, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, stealing is better than robbing, and robbing is better than not grabbing!

In Kaifeng City, Zuo Ziguang, Huang Jingsheng and Wang Dahu got together and held a secret meeting.

After the imperial court sent Zhao Pu to Kaijing to pick peaches, the three people present were all clear in their hearts: the situation was gradually moving towards a tense and completely irreconcilable situation.

Today's old Li family and the court are just a face-saving affair, Li Zhongyi respects the court on the surface, and the court does not dare to completely tear his face immediately.

Although Li Zhongyi's family is small, they are all in the palm of the court's hand, but as long as the powerful Li family's army does not collapse, the court must be a rat trap and dare not mess around.

Before Empress Dowager Fu married Chai Rong, she was a talented woman who was famous in the powerful circle of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Poetry and lyrics, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Fu Empress Dowager is proficient in everything.

What is even more rare is that the Empress Dowager Fu does not release the scroll every day, and there are historical classics such as "Historical Records", "Spring and Autumn", "Zuo Chuan", and "Analects" on the desk all year round.

The historical pen is like iron and like a knife, and the first volume of the Gao Emperor's book of the Book of Han is recorded clearly and clearly.

Emperor Gao's father was captured by Xiang Yu, and Xiang Yu threatened Han Taizu to cook and eat it. As a result, Han Taizu actually said: Divide my piece of the pie.

As the saying goes, no poison is not a husband! The husband here refers to those who have achieved great things, and they must be ruthless and vicious, the so-called mercy does not take care of the generals, benevolence does not take care of the government, yes!

It is impossible for Empress Dowager Fu, who is familiar with historical materials, not to know this truth, and what she is most worried about is this.

The whole family of Guo Wei, the ancestor of this dynasty, was killed by Emperor Yin of the previous dynasty, Guo Wei was angry and raised troops to the Zhou Dynasty, which led to Chai Rong inheriting the omission of the unification as an adopted son.

Don't talk about it far away, let's just talk about Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, slaughtering his brother and usurping his father and stealing his wife, this Li Lao Er for the golden chair, tore the humanistic avenue of Confucianism - the Three Platforms and Five Constants, and even tore his underwear to the point that he was even evaluated by the history books as a rare holy lord Mingjun.

Empress Dowager Fu knew very well in her heart that history was written by the victors, and the careerists who controlled the world would smear the previous dynasty into a dark and smelly mess, and its purpose was just a few words: the sky has eyes, the evening is evil and the present is good, the good is good, the good is good, the good is good, the good is good, the bad is the death!

The princes above the temple all talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in fact, the root cause of the powerful people's torn faces is almost all damage to interests!

Huang Jingsheng took a sip of wine, picked up a peanut with his hand, put it in his mouth and chewed it loudly, let out a long sigh, and said with a smile: "I think that back then, I led the big tiger brothers and was in charge of the edict of Shu. Now, although I have a little earl, I can't get rid of this bad habit of grabbing peanuts with my hands. ”

Wang Dahu stretched out his left hand, grabbed a large handful of peanuts in his hand, stuffed them into his mouth one by one with his right hand, and waited for most of the peanuts to eat, then patted the salt grains on his hand, and sighed: "The third brother often says that the color is also colorful." I'm a big old man, I don't know those things that chew words, and I know that I don't eat a meal and I am hungry and panicked. At that time, Lao Huang was blessed by the nobles in the palace, sitting on the throne of the canonical history, eating fragrant food and drinking spicy food, which was really majestic. I remember very well that every meal of Lao Huang always had four plates of cold dishes, four plates of hot dishes, and one soup. I was miserable, and I had a bunch of sons to feed, and some of the silver money from the hand of the bitter lord had just arrived in his arms before it was hot, and then he sprinkled it out. Alas, the appetizer is just a plate of peanuts. ”

Zuo Ziguang smiled, as long as Huang Shengjing and Wang Dahu get together to eat and drink, before discussing the matter, they will always start a "grievance conference" called "Bitter Memories and Sweetness", which is really super showy.

Back then, Zuo Ziguang started from the Hechi Township Army and followed Li Zhongyi all the way to the present. Although he hadn't experienced the things in front of him, he also knew a lot of interesting things from the bickering between Huang Jingsheng and Wang Dahu.

How to put it, there may be some people who are born with the destiny to do big things. If Zuo Ziguang heard correctly, after the old Li family was raided, Li Zhongyi, who had been imprisoned in the edict, actually had the ability to take advantage of the shortcomings of Huang Jingsheng and Wang Dahu, not only turned over, but also became an important minister of Shu step by step.

What kind of way is this? Zuo Ziguang really can't describe it in words, he can only say: Destiny!

As for Li Zhongyi, under Chai Rong's sandwiching, he became the number one powerful clan in the Great Zhou Dynasty step by step, but Zuo Ziguang was not so surprised.

Zuo Ziguang, who has always been bold and ruthless, has always been cautious and polite in front of Huang Jingsheng and Wang Dahu, and he did not dare to be disrespectful.

Huang and Wang are Li Zhongyi's only two sworn brothers, Zuo Ziguang actually doesn't care much, Li Zhonghao is still Li Zhongyi's brother, he will start without ambiguity.

This person, only with self-respect, will he gain the respect of others, no matter whether this respect is sincere or not, at least on the face, it's okay!

Huang Jingsheng is actually better at business and financial management than Li Zhongyi, as long as it is the golden idea that Li Zhongyi has mentioned, Huang Jingsheng can often draw inferences from one case to another and comprehend more ways to make money.

Over the years, the expenses allocated by the imperial court to Li Jiajun have been far from sufficient in most cases. Relying on Huang Jingsheng's long-sleeved business talent, especially before winning the great treasure house of Goryeo, Li Jiajun actually had no worries about food and clothing, what kind of ability is this?

This kind of person, Zuo Ziguang admires and respects from the bottom of his heart!

As for Wang Dahu, in fact, he and Zuo Ziguang belong to the same kind of people with the same smell, and even Wang Dahu is even more hard-hearted.

Because of Wang Dahu's previous experience as a jailer, there is a group of poor men under his command who need to help the family, forcing him to toss the criminal officials who are in prison. Even if it is a crack in the stone, a puddle of oil must be squeezed out, otherwise, the word king must be written upside down.

Zuo Ziguang also took a handful of peanuts and slowly stuffed them into his mouth, but he pondered one thing in his heart: it is not a family, and it is not a family.

Li Zhongyi also has a bad problem, he always likes to calculate the gains and losses in interests before fighting. If the benefits that may be grabbed are far less than the price paid, Li Zhongyi will try not to consider this kind of battle.

As one of the persons in charge of the secret affairs sent by Li Zhongyi, Zuo Ziguang was very aware of the interests of Li Jiajun.

Li Zhongyi calculated the gains and losses, led the troops out to rob, and the things he snatched back, except for a small part of the on-site partition, the rest were handed over to Huang Jingsheng to take care of.

Huang Jingsheng used the advantage of trading and opening a bank, as long as the money allocated by Li Zhongyi came to him, he would double the profits.

Among the monthly profits, there is always a certain proportion of silver money, which is given priority to Li Jiajun's preferential family.

Li Zhongyi has said many times that only when there are no worries, the officers and men of the three armies will really work for you, and Zuo Ziguang deeply agrees with this.

Zuo Ziguang privately calculated an account, based on Li Jiajun's ultra-high pension standard for the dead or seriously injured and disabled soldiers, although Huang Shenghe is very good at making money, but as long as he fights a few defeats with more than 10,000 dead soldiers, Li Zhongyi will go bankrupt immediately.

Objectively speaking, as long as everyone's vital interests are involved, no one is a fool and can calculate that account.

It is precisely because of this that the officers and men of the three armed forces are fighting bravely to be the first, risking their lives to win the battle, and must not lose the battle.

The reason is obvious, Li Zhongyi is broken, and the big thing is broken, and everyone's future is gone.

Let's ask, who doesn't have parents, brothers, wives, sons and daughters to support?

If Li Zhongyi knew Zuo Ziguang's current thoughts, he would definitely praise it, and he would give a real example by pinching his head and tail.

The people of a certain country and a certain dynasty, even white-collar workers with high wages and bonuses, are still panicked, feel overburdened, and worry that one day they will become house slaves, card slaves, and debt slaves.

To put it bluntly, this is the reality that people have no long-term worries and must have near-term worries. No matter how high the accidental income is, it is far less attractive than the huge temptation to solve the difficulties of studying, seeing a doctor, and housing and many other benefits.

I think that at the beginning, after Wang Huzi returned from his visit to Britain in the western Xinjiang, he once said with emotion: The living standard of an ordinary worker in the Great John Empire far exceeded that of the leader of his country.

A more striking example is that the credit card department of a bank favors civil servants, leaders of state-owned enterprises, and Fortune 500 gold-collar groups with stable jobs and incomes. What is taboo is: a freelancer who earns 100,000 yuan today and wants to beg for food tomorrow.

Long live the Emperor of the Mountain, long live, everyone will, but can that solve the fundamental problem? The fart people are just chanting with the monks, and they have no intentions!

After five glasses of wine, the peanuts wiped out half of the plates, and the formal meeting began.

"Li Qiong has been very busy recently, and she has frequently secretly contacted the old subordinates of Tianwuwei. According to what my people have inquired about, the results have been quite fruitful. After all, after Tianwuwei changed to a new master, there was no big movement in the open, but in the secret there were constant small movements, which was obviously the trend of a son of heaven and a courtier. "Zuo Ziguang attaches more importance to the movements of the military, which is also the main direction he is responsible for.

Huang Jingsheng said with a smile: "There are so many businesses that have borrowed the name of others and transferred large sums of money to the north, obviously wanting to do great things. One of them, although I don't have conclusive evidence, always feels that it is related to Zhao Sanlang. ”

Zuo Ziguang nodded, he and Zhao Laosan happen to be mortal enemies, as the saying goes, the person who knows you best is often your enemy.

What kind of thing is Zhao Sanlang, Zuo Ziguang couldn't be clearer, hehe, he was able to catch Zhao Laosan back then, and Zuo Ziguang's credit was indispensable.

What is especially important is that in order to survive, Zhao Laosan betrayed Murong Yanzhao without even blinking an eye, and Zuo Ziguang was the witness.

"I've been sending people to keep an eye on the Anle Hou Mansion, in recent times, Wang Pu and Li Gu have been in close contact with the Du family respectively, even Du Guifei in the palace, the number of times she sent people back to the mansion has not finished this month, it has exceeded twice, do you think it's strange?" Wang Dahu saw Huang Jingsheng and Zuo Zi staring at his face intently, so he continued, "It seems that something big is going to happen." ”

"Most of the people who come out of the palace have a kind of arrogant style, no matter how deep they hide, Lao Tzu's people can see ......through it at a glance" Wang Dahu seems to be serious, and there is a pride that goes deep into the bone marrow, which makes Zuo Ziguang want to laugh but dare not laugh.

PS: Today is expected to be updated with 10,000 words, and the monthly pass is less than enough to lift the spirit!
