Jiang De immediately bowed to Zhao Ji and said, "Wechen has thanked the official, and Wechen will do his best not to disappoint the official." ”

Zhao Ji nodded and said with a smile, "Okay!" Come, let's go into the house together to talk and prepare a feast! Let's try this glass first, by the way, Jiang De, you can tell us about what you have seen along the way. ”

Jiang De nodded in understanding.

——

In a place in the palace, a young girl is holding a book silently stupid, and the word white snake exposed on the back of the book makes everyone around her understand what she is thinking.

"Princess! The man is back! A man dressed in a palace maid's costume jumped in like a swallow, and the girl immediately looked back at her, and hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”

The palace maid covered her mouth with a smile and said, "Of course it's the person that the princess thinks about every day, I heard that Jiang Xiaolang entered the palace with treasures today, and that person is Jiang Xiaolang's think tank, and he must be back, princess, you said, last time we gave him a sachet, he didn't reply, this time he came back, are we going to arrest him again!" ”

The girl blushed and was about to pinch the palace maid, and said, "You little prodigal hoof, you are not ashamed!" It's enough to go once, where there are multiple visits. ”

The palace maid smiled and dodged, and he said to the girl, "But he won't reply to us, princess, what do you say?" ”

The girl's mood was a little low, he sat on the stool next to him and said, "Since ancient times, it has been difficult for a princess to marry, especially since I am still the eldest daughter, and I am more concerned, I am afraid that he also has his own ideas, can I still let him give up his future?" ”

The palace maid stomped her feet and said, "That Xu Guanzhong is just a stinky scholar, why does he still dislike our princess!" ”

Zhao Yupan gently touched the book next to him, thought for a while and said, "In this way, you don't have to bring anything, when you get outside the palace, buy a red bean and give it to him, he will naturally understand." ”

Saying that, Zhao Yupan smiled a little uncertainly and said, "Since ancient times, it has been a falling flower, intentionally flowing and ruthless, not to mention that I am still a member of the royal family, I just hope that I can be an ordinary family in the next life, so maybe there will not be so many troubles." ”

——

Xu Guanzhong looked at the red beans in front of him, his heart was shocked, and he asked Tang Huai opposite, "Did the person who sent this thing say anything?" ”

Tang Huai shook his head and said, "No, then the palace maid gave me this, let me hand it over to you, Mr. Xu, what does this red bean represent?" ”

Xu Guanzhong smiled, and he didn't know if Tang Huai could see the bitterness and helplessness in this smile, and said, "It's nothing, it's just an old friend, don't mention this matter to others, just leave it at that." ”

As he was talking, Jiang De walked in and asked, "What's the end of it?" ”

When Xu Guanzhong saw Jiang De, he hurriedly put away the red beans, got up and said, "Lord, it's just a trivial matter, I don't know if the lord's entry into the palace this time will be smooth?" ”

Jiang De sighed, walked over and sat down and said, "Zhao Ji is really mediocre, I gave him cement and glass, he can't put down the glass and disdain the cement, fortunately I am not a loyal person to him, otherwise I would have to vomit blood in anger." ”

Xu Guanzhong said with a smile, "This is also normal, the official family likes to write and vulgar, if the lord shows him the cement floor, he may still like it, if he shows him this cement like dust, he will definitely only disgust it." ”

Jiang De nodded and continued, "In addition, I was given a military officer who was a lieutenant of Yilu, and by the way, I was promised a fellow jinshi, but this is also to say, I don't know what the situation will be at that time." ”

Tang Huai said in surprise next to him: "So, the eldest brother is also a general?" ”

Jiang De knocked him and said, "What general, this is just a military officer, not even a subordinate, at most he just takes some money, it's useless." ”

Xu Guanzhong shook his head and said, "Don't say that, the lord has an official status after all, and many things will be much easier to do in the future, by the way, Shi Qian has already sent Li Gang's address, when will we visit?" ”

Jiang De looked at the sky outside, it was getting dark in late autumn, and it was already full of colorful clouds at this time, and it was dusk.

Jiang De thought for a while and said, "It's better to choose a day, just today, you and I will go with some wine and meat." ”

Xu Guanzhong smiled and said, "It's okay, I have also been famous for Mr. Li Gang for a long time, and I have long been yearning for it." ”

Jiang De nodded and said, "Li Gang is upright, you will definitely get along with him happily, let's go, no matter how late it is, it will be really late." ”

The city of Tokyo is very large, and there are no cars or subways in later generations at this time, and by the time Jiang De arrived at the address given by the time, it was already dark.

"My lord, this is it!" Xu Guanzhong pointed to the dilapidated gate in front of him and said, Jiang De looked at the courtyard, it was not big, Jiang De signaled a black-clothed warrior who came to knock on the door, not long after, the door opened with a babble, and a boy came out, looked at a few people, and asked curiously, "How many people?" ”

Jiang De smiled and said, "This is Li Gang, Li Boji's family?" ”

The boy nodded and asked, "Yes, how many of you want to find my young master?" ”

"Young Master?" Xu Guanzhong looked at Jiang De strangely.

Jiang De explained, "Although Li Gang is in his thirties, his family is actually a family of eunuchs, and his father is the pacification envoy of Jingnan Road, thinking that this boy was brought from home, so he is called the young master." Xiaolang, am I right? ”

The boy hurriedly nodded and said, "That's right, a few of them must be my young master's old friends, hurry up and go first, my young master is eating, wait for me to report it." ”

Jiang De sighed and said, "I am your young master's brother, what is there to report, you lead the way in front, I brought good wine!" ”

The boy saw that Jiang De really brought good wine, and saw Jiang De dressed as a son, Xu Guanzhong looked elegant, and he didn't feel that there was any problem, so he said, "Okay, please come in." ”

Jiang De asked the black-clothed warrior to wait outside, and he walked in with Xu Guanzhong, the courtyard was really not big, and it was the inner room within a dozen steps of entering, Jiang De saw someone eating in the house from a distance, so he shouted, "Brother Li!" I've come to see you! ”

The figure inside sat up with a swoop, and then rushed out, still holding chopsticks in his hand, he looked at Jiang De, rubbed his eyes and smiled, "Xiao Langjun!" Is it really you? ”

Jiang De laughed and said, "Brother Li, don't blame me for being late, right?" ”

Li Gang immediately grabbed Jiang Dexi and said, "How come, it's not too late, it's not too late, I said a few days ago, aren't you going to recognize me as a friend!" As he spoke, he looked at Xu Guanzhong and asked, "Who is this?" ”

Xu Guanzhong arched his hand and said, "Student Xu Guanzhong is the chief of staff!" ”

"My lord?" Li Gang looked at Jiang De and said with a smile: "It seems that your business is really getting bigger and bigger." ”

Jiang De smiled and said, "Just play, look!" I brought you wine, you won't go to court tomorrow, right? ”

Li Gang pulled Jiang De and walked inside and said, "No, no, today we have to talk at night, if we don't get drunk, we won't return!" ”

When he came to the house, Jiang De saw four dishes, a bowl of soup, a bowl of rice, a pot of tea, and only one dish of meat in the dish, and couldn't help sighing, "I said Brother Li, your family is also the home of the eunuch, why are you living so hard?" ”

Saying that, Jiang De sat down, the little boy had already brought the bowls, chopsticks and wine glasses, Xu Guanzhong put the meat and vegetables on the table and opened them, Jiang De poured the wine, and a smell of wine suddenly emanated, floating all over the house, Li Gang looked at the wine and said with a smile, "Qiong wine?" Xiao Langjun is really exquisite, and what he takes out is good wine! ”

Jiang De smiled, "That's nature, come on, let's have a drink first, and then talk about the rest!" ”

After drinking the wine, the three of them sighed for a good time, Jiang De looked at Li Gang and asked, "I have been in the capital for a long time, I only came to see my brother today, is it mine, and please don't blame my brother!" Come, I'll have three drinks first! ”

Li Gang hurriedly stopped and said, "Xiao Langjun, don't be like this, you are still young, your body is not fully grown, you can't drink like this, I Li Gang is not famous, you can find me, I'm afraid it took a lot of thought."

Actually, I've heard a long time ago, Xiao Langjun, that you came to Tokyo City, but because you have concerns, you haven't dared to look for you. ”

As he spoke, Li Gang punished himself with a drink.

Xu Guanzhong looked at Li Gang and asked with a smile: "Brother Li didn't dare to come to my lordship, could it be because of the matter of the prince?" ”

Li Gang crooked his mouth, and Jiang De smiled, "I said, Brother Li, aren't you known for your integrity?" Why is it so difficult at this time? ”

Li Gang sighed, ate a piece of meat, and said, "Let me ask you first, Xiao Langjun, what is the relationship between you and Taishi?" ”

Jiang De took a sip of wine, spit out a mouthful of turbid breath and said, "It's just using each other, it doesn't matter, at most, it's just the idea that he shelters me to do business and I give him a fortune." ”

Li Gang was stunned and asked, "What idea?" ”

Jiang De replied, "You also know, I am good at innovating products, these months I am not in the capital, I went to the bank of Jishui, built a factory, made glass cement, I tell you, the benefits of glass cement, huge, comparable to taxes all the way!" ”

Li Gang said in surprise: "There are really so many? ”

Xu Guanzhong said to Li Gang: "Mr. Li, doesn't you know what my father-in-law is?" My father-in-law will only be modest in such a matter, and will not exaggerate! ”

Li Gang gasped and said, "In this way, the glass was originally made by you Xiaolangjun, in order to gather wealth for the country, then I should have re-written the folds." ”

When Jiang De heard this, he immediately asked, "What kind of twist?" ”

Li Gang said, "I have long heard about this glass, it is said that someone sent glass into the palace today, and the official family will have a glass banquet, and the scene is said to be extravagant!" You say that the official family is the world, doesn't this call on the people of the world to be proud of extravagance? ”

Jiang De nodded and asked, "I heard that during this time, you and the Taishi have a lot of contradictions?" ”

Li Gang took a sip of wine and sighed, "I and the Taishi, the quarrels and quarrels are all official matters, I actually think about it on weekdays, and I have to admire the Taishi, who can tolerate me so far!" ”

Jiang De asked, "Aren't you afraid of being kicked out of the court?" ”

Li Gang laughed and said, "Raise your arms for the world, why be afraid?" ”

Xu Guanzhong applauded: "Zhuang! When the float is white! ”

The two drank from each other's cups, and suddenly the table was jubilant.

When the wine was gone, Jiang De, Xu Guanzhong, and Li Gang were all drunk, so they slept together at Li Gang's house, and the next day, Jiang De and the two returned to the restaurant.

"Lord, this Li Gang is really upright in his heart, but he is a little pedantic." Xu Guanzhong said to Jiang De on the road.

Jiang De smiled and asked, "What do you say?" ”

Xu Guanzhong sighed, "The official family is best extravagant, it is useless to admonish with words, it is better to find a way to gain the trust of the official family first, and then slowly persuade him, or choose a prince and cultivate him as a Ming Jun, which is much more useful than to make a statement." ”

Jiang De nodded, smiled and said, "Li Gang has the ability, but he doesn't have any power skills, such a person is relieved to use, but it's a pity that he can't be used by me now!" ”

Xu Guanzhong hummed and said, "This person has a lot of feelings for Da Song in his heart, I'm afraid that if he doesn't take the last step, even if he is good with the main bus, it will be difficult to drive the main public." ”

Jiang De looked at the sky, blue sky and white clouds, such a sky is extremely rare in the future life, he said to Xu Guanzhong, "I've been out for a long time, I'm a little homesick, it's almost time to go back, do you think we have anything else to do?" ”

Xu Guanzhong thought for a while and said, "The students think it's best to leave now, after the glass banquet, the rarity of glass will inevitably spread all over the world, and the world will inevitably look for glass everywhere, such as the lord here, the prince and the grandson, the big and small officials, how can it be settled?" It's better to send a pair of hands and hide behind yourself. ”

Jiang De thought about it, and said, "Then listen to you, let's leave on a certain day." ”

Walking on the road, suddenly, Jiang De saw a group of people gathered in front of a building, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's going on here?" ”

The black-clothed warrior stepped forward to inquire and said, "Back to Xiaolangjun, someone is playing the qin." ”

Jiang De sighed, walked forward with Xu Guanzhong, and sure enough, he slowly heard the sound of the piano, Jiang De didn't have much research on these classical music, but he just felt that the piano was played so well that even he could listen to it quietly, and Xu Guanzhong was already addicted to it with his eyes closed.

"Lord, there is a peerless beauty here!" Xu Guanzhong opened his eyes and said.

"Peerless beauty? How so? Just by the sound of this piano? Jiang De asked.

Xu Guanzhong nodded and said, "Look at people with sound, this person's piano sound is distant and quiet, clear and charming, it can be seen that his person is a generation of beauties, the most rare thing is that this person is probably only over double ten, there is already such a level, after a while, it will become a generation of everyone!" ”

Jiang De has great trust in Xu Guanzhong, since Xu Guanzhong said that it is a generation of people, it must be a generation of people, Jiang De asked, "Go and ask, who is the one who plays the qin?" ”

After a while, the black-clothed warrior came to report, "Hui Xiaolangjun, he is the first prostitute in the capital, Master Li!" Today is the day of his charity performance, and he will give all the money he earns from his performance to the widows and orphans, and this is what he will hear here. ”

Jiang De sighed, Master Li, this name can be said to be one of the most dazzling names among the women of the entire Northern Song Dynasty. Especially the peachy news of her and Zhao Ji, it can be said to be the first gossip in the late Song Dynasty.

Jiang De asked Xu Guanzhong, "Mr. Xu, do you know this Master Li?" ”

Xu Guanzhong nodded and said, "This Master Li is actually a stage name, there was one before, it is said that Zhang Xian and others lingered on the old Master Li, but that person has already fallen into the jade pendant, this is Xiao Li Shishi, as far as I know, it is a Shao Shengnian person, as early as the Daguan years, it is slowly famous, it is said that the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are omniscient, singing, dancing and swords, known as the first prostitute, if you want to see her side, even if you spend money like earth, you have to coincide with its meeting, I didn't expect to meet here. ”
