Li Zhongyi walked into his old house, and he was forced to leave at the beginning, and his mood at this time was very different.

Wei Renpu had never been to the Chu State Mansion belonging to Li Zhongyi before, but the flowers he saw along the way withered and the grass withered, and it was conceivable that no one had taken care of it for a long time.

As the saying goes, the tree dies, and the man lives!

Li Zhongyi moved from Kaifeng to Goryeo, and then from Goryeo to Pinglu, and finally, defeated Han Tong, attacked Kaifeng City, and became the new master of the empire.

Wei Renpu seems to be calm and clear, but Li Qiong guessed that this Wei Xianggong must be thinking about a big problem: how to stay on the stage for a few more days and get some benefits for his children and grandchildren to keep their homeland.

The change of dynasty has never been a warm and affectionate invitation. The pie of benefits is always limited, and if someone eats two more bites, others will inevitably eat three less.

The old magnates who stand on the wrong side will inevitably hand over their power, and even the lives of their clansmen.

The new powerful people who have gained power will inevitably carve up the vested interests of the old powerful people, and this is a cruel reality that does not depend on human will.

Under the eaves of the inner study, under the light of bright lanterns, a bewitching woman in costume was waiting for them with a light smile.

"The concubines visit the king, and the king is blessed." Li Cuixuan had already seen Wei Renpu, Li Qiong and Zhao Kuangyin, the three foreign ministers, the original blame had already come to her lips, and then she changed her name to the official occasion and bowed down.

"That's it." Li Zhongyi waved his hand, although he was already the de facto master of the empire, he still didn't want to see too much red tape.

After all, Li Qiong was old, and her old eyes were a little dizzy, until he walked to the bottom of the steps, he saw Li Cuixuan's peerless appearance that brought disaster to the country and the people.

"Zi ......" Li Qiong secretly took a breath of cold air, such a strong enemy served by Li Wuyi's side, could Qi Niang bear it? He couldn't have thought any further.

Although Li Qiong is a military minister, his talent for fighting can only be described as unsatisfactory, and his initial power relied on his courage to not be afraid of death.

I think that at the beginning, after Li Qiongbing was defeated at the hands of Lin Huzi of the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was snubbed by Chai Rong for several years. Over the years, Li Qiong, who was originally semi-literate, especially likes to listen to books, and from the storyteller "Xian'er", he has heard a lot of jokes in the court.

In a word, since ancient times, kings have been lucky, but their faces have been so thin!

According to Li Qiong's understanding, his Qi Niang is already a gorgeous Oiran, but she has cheapened Li Zhongyi, a hungry ghost in color, for nothing.

Unexpectedly, Li Cuixuan, who appeared at this time, was not inferior to Qi Niang in the slightest, and obviously became Li Qi Niang's rival in the inner house.

No matter how to hide it on the surface, as far as the deepest thoughts in his heart are concerned, Li Qiong naturally hopes that his great-grandson, that is, the son born by Li Qiniang in the future, will eventually take over the inheritance left by Li Zhongyi.

There is an old saying, but the words are rough but not rough: one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven!

The great-grandson of the Huayang County Palace, if he ascends the throne in the future, even if Li Qiong's body is rotten, his soul is likely to crawl out of the coffin, laugh countless times, and celebrate with his crown.

Everyone has a love for beauty!

Men are not lustful, either they have no money, or they have no power, or they have a deep wife, or they are old and weak, or they have wilted somewhere!

As soon as Zhao Kuangyin saw Li Cuixuan's calamity and water fairy posture, he couldn't help but take a long breath, Li Wuxuan's Yanfu is really not shallow!

Among the three courtiers present, Li Qiong was worried that Li Qiniang's road to favor was full of thorns, Zhao Kuangyin was in the prime of life, and he only cared about appreciating the rare fairy posture, but Wei Renpu was very sober.

Wei Renpu is old, the beautiful concubine in the family has become an old concubine, and the old Wei family does not have a beautiful little lady who can be dedicated to Li Zhongyi, so his mentality is the most peaceful.

"Ahem." Wei Renpu noticed that Zhao Lao Er was staring at Li Cuixuan intently, and was very worried that he would lose his honor in front of the king, and when the time came, he would drag everyone into the water, so he deliberately coughed lightly.

Zhao Kuangyin got Wei Renpu's reminder, and suddenly came to his senses, and then his old face became hot, and he hurriedly lowered his head, so as not to make Li Zhongyi unhappy.

In fact, although Li Zhongyi didn't specifically stare at Zhao Kuangyin, he paid great attention to his every move.

Zhao Kuangyin's short-term gaffe before beauty, Li Zhongyi naturally had a number in his heart, and his mood was somewhat complicated.

Men, there are fairy concubines in the family, although they can only enjoy it alone, but the envy of others is also essential.

Brocade clothes walk at night, hiding pearls in the coffin, referring to the complex mentality of secretly comparing between men.

It is this kind of envy, jealousy and hatred that makes you drool so much, but there is a moat in front of the beauty, which makes you think about it day and night but cannot get it, and it is easiest to satisfy the desire of a successful man.

Li Zhongyi took the lead in entering the inner study, Li Cuixuan took small steps, kept up with the man's pace, and casually took the red cloak that the man had untied.

"Princess, please sit down for a while, and come when you go." Before Li Zhongyi changed his clothes, he invited the three important ministers into the study, expressing that he must have attached great importance to it.

"Your Lord, please take care of yourself, your ministers are hungry for your best tea." Li Qiong bowed and made a little joke.

Although Wei Renpu ranked first among the ministers, he was not Li Zhongyi's confidant after all, and he didn't have the courage to open his mouth at all for this kind of little joke that only an extremely close relationship dared to say.

As for Zhao Kuangyin, he was originally worried, but he was afraid that Li Zhongyi would use the excuse to find trouble. Just now, Zhao Kuangyin greedily looked at the beauty's fairy posture, and he lost his temper greatly, and his whole heart was not completely lost, where did he get his leisure mixed into Li Qiong's jokes?

Under Li Cuixuan's service, Li Zhongyi went to change his clothes without mentioning it, and the three so-called important ministers with their own thoughts sat around the coffee table and chatted about various topics that were innocuous and elegant.

In the vicinity of the Great Xiangguo Temple in the south of Kaifeng City, there is a well-known slum area inhabited by foreign population. It is a mixed area of fish and dragons, full of gangs, and has always been a nightmare area with extremely bad law and order.

The back door of a small house deep in the slum area of "Squeak...... was suddenly pushed open from the inside, and an old man in tattered clothes and a gray cloth strip wrapped around his head staggered out of the door.

In the moonlit alleys, the air was filled with an unpleasant stench, the after-effects of stagnant water.

The chubby old man walked slowly past the three houses, he looked left and right, and was about to move on.

"Tsk, the richest salt merchant in the entire Kaifeng City, Liu Wanguan, Liu Daguan, when did he fall to this step?"

A gloomy mockery suddenly came from the alley, and the old man who was called Liu Wanguan trembled violently, forcibly restraining the urge to turn his head to look.

"Bang ......" Countless torches suddenly burst out in the alley, and the dense armor soldiers, in the flickering firelight, showed a hideous and terrifying sneer.

At this time, Zuo Ziguang, who was wearing a cyan Confucian shirt, shook a folding fan in his hand, and appeared from the shadows with a smile.

"Liu Daguan, you are really hiding deep enough, it is really hard to let Zuo find it!" Zuo Ziguang's lovely smile, reflected in Liu Wanguan's eyes, is even more terrifying than the devil's heart-digging liver, how much more than ten times more terrifying?
