Chapter 22 Eating a trench grows a wisdom, and it is difficult to move an inch without money

Suddenly, the atmosphere was a little awkward. However, Empress Wu was still calm, and soon ordered a few palace maids to clean up. Although it seemed that the guests and hosts were happy next, a group of noble ladies were not very clever, and they were eager to go back as soon as possible, so the feast ended half an hour earlier than usual.

As soon as the scene ended, Li Xian was hurriedly dragged to the apse by Empress Wu. Seeing that expressionless face, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, knowing that he was in a hurry. The reason why he tried it on a whim just now was nothing more than that he had a good reputation as the queen mother, and if this happened to the favored minister, he should be dealt with in the same way as he had belittled those martial artists before. Now it seems that the Empress Wu is no better than others, and she can't use common sense to figure it out.

"Xian'er, you said that the prime minister released the prisoner's wife, did you really hear it from the community?"

Glared at by those sharp eyes, Li Xian shrunk his neck and replied honestly: "I heard about it when I was wandering around in Nanshi, so I just talked about it casually. He paused for a moment, and suddenly ahhh......h

"Say no more!"

Being drunk by Empress Wu like this, Li Xian was suddenly startled. Seeing that her face was already pale, he knew that today's matter was completely out of play. blame yourself for not thinking it through, blame yourself for not expecting Li Yifu to be so favored. All in all, it's over pretending to be a good baby, and don't talk nonsense.

Still thinking about it, his arm was grabbed by Empress Wu, followed by a fierce reprimand: "The prime minister's business is the affairs of the imperial court, just take care of yourself at a young age, don't pay attention to other people's nonsense!" If it reaches the ears of the minister, it will inevitably think that you, the prince, are frivolous, understand! In the future, if you casually take out the outside and talk nonsense, I will no longer let you walk freely outside, and you will have to be grounded for a year and a half! ”

Feeling that her attitude towards her son was too strict, she quickly softened her tone and patted Li Xian's cheek gently: "You used to wander around, and your father and I didn't care about you, but you are a prince after all, and everyone watches your words and deeds, and you can't ignore them at all." What you said today has already been dealt with by your father, but it's just a rumor. You said that you want to learn the art of war with the British public, and when the time comes, I will go and mention it to your father, even if you call the palace maids for drills, it is not a big deal. There is only one thing that should not be forgotten in the future, on an occasion like the palace when there are many people, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, understand? ”

Seeing that Empress Wu had changed from a strict mother to a loving mother, Li Xian almost couldn't react, but finally agreed: "Erchen understands!" ”

He finally understood that all the measures of the Empress Wu had a bottom line, and the so-called selflessness was just an appearance. Those relatives of the martial arts family have nothing to do with her at all, and they are promoted because they show the magnanimity of the queen, and the reason why they are derogatory is only because their dignity has been violated, and the so-called reputation is only very secondary. In this case, the queen mother's route will not be able to go in the future, and he doesn't want to touch the mold three or two times, and then the queen will not be treated at all.

When he returned to his palace, he summoned two of his henchmen and sent them to inquire about the true situation of the incident in Li Yifu.

He knew early on that the loyalty of the people around him was very important, so he used a little bit of grace and power to successfully entrap those who served closely. The history of Empress Wu's fortune has always been the object of his pondering, so what happened to the queen Xiao Shufei at the beginning, he will never repeat it, Infernal Affairs is very beautiful, but it is not so wonderful when it happened to him.

Building a team like an iron bucket is his biggest task at the moment. However, there is still one thing he lacks - money!

If he opened a house and built a house, he would have money, the problem is, he had to wait until he was sixteen! His queen mother sent an old palace maid A Luo to his side in the early years, and his monthly expenses were managed by A Luo. In the first days, as long as he used money, Ah Luo must have been stuck and refused to give it, even if he gave it, he nagged and asked about the use, but when he inquired about the situation in Ah Luo's family and asked Li Jingye to manage to get the family letter of Ah Luo's only brother, all the problems were solved.

Empress Wu's envelope is nothing more than money and small favors, he doesn't have so much money, so naturally he can only use family affection to attack. Of course, Li Jingye and Cheng Bohu have helped a lot, these two people's families are rich people, and it is of course a trivial matter to do this kind of thing.

Li Xian ordered someone to summon Ah Luo, and after holding the others back, he asked, "Ah Luo, how much money do I have now?" ”

Goose yellow shirt, moon red long skirt, Ah Luo can now be called a spring breeze, Empress Wu just promoted her to be the only female official by Li Xian's side a few days ago, and her younger brother is a letter once a month, so the sadness on her face has long been gone. At this time, as soon as she heard Li Xian's question, she smiled and said: "Your Highness now has a savings of 220,000 yuan, and when the Dragon Boat Festival is over, Your Majesty and Niangniang will definitely have a reward." ”

Two hundred and twenty thousand dollars, which sounds like a lot, plus those gold and silver guys who have deposited it, there is no problem with counting 500,000 yuan. However, if you want to do anything big with this money, it is simply not a dream! Besides, Ah Luo is indeed reliable, yes, but if you transfer too much money from her, you will definitely alarm the Empress Wu when the time comes!

"Okay, anyway, you'll do it all for me, the housekeeper!" Li Xian glanced at Ah Luo, saw that his face was full of joy, and knew that he had given this reassuring pill correctly, so he suddenly jumped up and grabbed her hand, "When the time comes to write to your brother, don't forget to tell him to study hard, I will open a house and build a house in the future, and I can still give him a place to go!" ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!" A Luo's hand was caught, she was stunned at first, and when she heard what she said, she cried with joy, and she quickly knelt down before she had time to break free of Li Xian's hand, "Your Highness is very gracious, slave and maid ......"

Li Xianwei was afraid that he would hear any more words such as knotting grass and rings, so he hurriedly dragged the person up, and blocked the second half of the sentence back: "You are my person, and your brother is not an outsider, and when the time comes, it will just be a gesture!" Okay, okay, hurry up and go down to touch up your makeup, otherwise people will think I've bullied you! ”

Soft words coaxed away Ah Luo, and he lay on the bed and thought about it to himself. A penny is difficult for a hero, and it seems that he really has to find a few ways to make money.

Wait, someone sent him a lot of money the last time, but he didn't ask for it!

He jumped up from the bed all of a sudden, and then recalled what Li Jingye said when he heard that Hu Gong in Ankang Building was giving away the property, and his eyes suddenly lit up!

That Hu Gong definitely had something to do with Li Yifu, so Li Jingye would cause Li Yifu to provoke this kind of emotion. Also, behind this matter, is there any Li Ji's calculation in it?
