"Tomorrow we can move to the newly renovated room, the underground is baking, and the four of us don't have to squeeze like this in the spacious space of the Chase Shop." Li Zhi suddenly remembered.

Pang Ti pursed his lips and retorted to him with an unhappy face: "Cry is willing to sleep like this, otherwise there is room to turn over, what if you wake up and are not in your brother's arms?" ”

Yu Ran scratched her nose, "Shame, shame, and I'm not afraid to teach jokes!" ”

"It's not for himself, if he doesn't hug his brother tightly, he will free his hand and reach into Sister Yuran's pajama pants!" Pang Cry looked concerned, and he couldn't see the hidden narrowness at all.

Yu Ran pinched her nose in shame, attracting Qingqi to stop her: "Don't hurt her, the thin skin and tender meat, I can't bear it!" ”

"It's wrong, it's better to be like this, tonight Brother Zhengwen will sleep with Sister Yuran in his arms, and tomorrow he will hold Sister Qingqi, let's take turns to come." As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes at Qingqi.

Qingqi smiled: "Then do what you say, text, Yuran will be yours tonight!" ”

Yu Ran buried her head in shame, thinking about refusing, but she couldn't say anything.

Of course, she knew what Pang Qi was thinking, and she couldn't say that this girl didn't sleep in the middle of the night, so she waited to see if Li Zhi would put her hand in again.

Soon extinguished the candle, Yuran was hugged by Li Zhi in his arms, his heart was pounding hard, Pang Cry took the initiative to the other end, stretched out his legs and put them on the two of them.

On the other side lay Qingqi, turning sideways and looking at them unabashedly, and facing Yu Ran in Li Zhi's arms, she was so ashamed that she buried her head in the man's pajamas.

The ambiguity couldn't stop the slow flow of time, and in the blink of an eye, it was already the afternoon of the next day, although Li Yi had not yet appeared, but he attracted the king of Linhuai County to appear in person.

Qingqi looked at his younger brother as a pair of twins talking about sisterhood and listening to his father at the first moment, and he was so happy that the king of the county smiled, and praised Li Zhi for doing things.

Knowing that the pair of sisters were born in the Ming Wangfu, the county prince was almost about to put down his affairs and go to the Ming Wangfu to confirm this marriage.

Li Zhi was unhappy, "In the end, it is still important to have a biological son, and the future son-in-law has nowhere to place the yard and silver, but he is indifferent, it is really sad to teach a junior!" ”

The king of Linhuai County laughed, "If you miss anyone's business, you can't let my beloved daughter and son-in-law get angry in a hurry!" Let's go with me, that mansion is also solved by the Ming Wang's Mansion, and it seems that we can't get rid of the Ming Wang's relationship. ”

On the way, it was interpreted that it was the seemingly ordinary mansion that Li Yi talked about last night, which was originally a military camp belonging to the Nanya Forbidden Army, because of the increasing prosperity of the east and west cities, and the existence of such an army garrison in the central business district, which is obviously extremely inconsistent with the surrounding environment.

Therefore, Dali Temple and the Criminal Department took over, transformed into an ordinary mansion like a secret office space, Dali Temple is in charge of trial, and the Criminal Department is in charge of judicial administration, and has the right to arrest, imprison and try guilty princes or ministers.

Because that location is located next to the southern ban, the surrounding area is heavily guarded openly and secretly, even if they know that a certain big man is being imprisoned there, no one dares to go to the ventilation to report or even break the prison to rescue.

The Praetorian Guard's duty to guard the access control in the south is not emotional, and there are no people around who secretly wear armor or hide hurting equipment, even those who wear strange costumes and behave arrogantly and strangely, they will also be blocked.

Women in the palace, people carrying public utensils, and guests, if there is no one to guide them, they will be prevented from entering and exiting within a certain range, and once an abnormal situation occurs, not only the palace guards here, but also the twelve mansions and sixteen guards of Chang'an City will emerge from all corners and instantly control the situation.

There are a considerable number of forbidden army guards and subordinate warriors in the capital, all of whom are strong in martial arts and extremely strong in combat effectiveness, and are the strongest elite forces in the Tang army.

Later, because the important people detained here by the Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, it was already well known, and no matter how strict the precautions were, it could not withstand the criticism of the Minister of Chinese and Military Affairs of the DPRK, after all, Nannai and Ouchi are extremely sensitive, and it is indeed a bit of a lack of face to allow a rather ironic criminal trial institution to be around.

Therefore, this place is vacant, and the ownership is also returned to the imperial court, but the relevant title deed has been in the hands of Dali Temple, because it is thought that once the imperial court sells at a high price, Dali Temple also needs to get a share of it.

It's just that this position and its original nature are too fearful, so no one has taken over it for many years.

This time I heard that Li Zhi intended to buy it, King Ming directly found today's saint, Gaozong waved his pen, the huge courtyard here is attributed to the emperor's gift, the implementation of the name lies in the first name of the poetry conference, of course, it has to go through the official edict, but with the help of Dali Temple, there is no problem to settle in advance.

"Since you don't have a need for an official position, there is no doubt that the reward will be exchanged for a mansion, and the title will still exist. But in order to transport money vehicles in and out of here in the future, King Ming still suggests that you give the Southern Forbidden Army a sum of silver, as a private sponsorship, as a road dredging cost, it will only be convenient for you to enter and exit, after all, it will be used as a vault, but it is a huge benefit to them! ”

"I think this is reasonable, but I don't know how much silver should be paid!"

"King Ming will help you find Zuo Yun Zuo, the general of the Forbidden Guards of Zhangnan Palace, and we are going to meet this person at present. This person is the general of Huaihua in Zhengsanpin, who is in charge of the general power of the inner and outer palaces of the Nangong, because the general is a part-time job, so in fact, he is the one who has the final say in the Nangong forbidden guard. He has a very close relationship with the Ming Wangfu and the Songwang Mansion, which is equivalent to one of our families, and he said a number of three thousand taels, and it is a one-time delivery, which is already extremely low! ”

"Three thousand taels is indeed not much, otherwise just hire a large number of strongmen to guard this place, and it will be more than this in a few years! But do I need to send some of him personally? ”

"Text, you have to remember that those who can be accepted by the Ming Wangfu are at least decent. However, this person's biggest hobby is drinking, and it is normal to give him some high-level alcohol in the future, and it is normal to interact with him as a friend! ”

As they spoke, they came to the guard gate of Xingqing Palace, and just to say their intentions, they were welcomed in, and even the interrogation was saved, obviously that Zuo Yun had already explained.

In a certain building in the palace, two people were arranged to sit on the first floor, and when they saw the guards, they quickly went to report it.

After a while, Zuo Yun came with a smile, bowed his hand to the king of Linhuai County from afar, and laughed when he came closer: "Lord Junwang, Mr. Li may not know, I have known Li Hongzhi for a long time, and I also served as his instructor for January!" ”

Li Hongzhi is naturally Li Yi, because of this words, the relationship between them was instantly closer.

Turning into another room, Zuo Yun looked at Li Zhi, "Mr. Li has been famous recently, especially the development of gunpowder, once it comes out, it will save the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers in my Datang, there is no exaggeration!" Originally, the three thousand taels could be exempted from this matter alone, but after discussing with Lord Ming, I thought that it would be more affordable to spend some silver taels than to waste an opportunity for the imperial court to reward him! ”

This is even more true, it is still the soldier who speaks straightforwardly, without those twists and turns.

The court's rewards are very inclusive, not only can he enjoy certain political privileges, but Li Zhi has no desire to get involved in officialdom, so the direction of giving will naturally be more inclined to him in business, and some power cannot be replaced by a lot of silver.

"Didn't the relevant rewards of the imperial court be issued earlier? It's the shops in the east and west cities! Li Zhiqi said.

"Is that just a little bit of the military's heart, or is it just for you to sacrifice the gunpowder formula! Once the development effect is realized, of course, the imperial court and the military will have official rewards and then award, and even the royal family and even the current saints are very likely to have another reward! Mr. Li, you still underestimate the importance of increasing the military power by dozens of times at one time, which is equivalent to an important contribution to the creation of the world! ”

"Haha, in this way, I haven't made a lot of money!" All three laughed.

"These three thousand taels of silver are just to block the expected dissenting opinions, Mr. Li has made such a huge contribution to the imperial court, and he also needs to pay the fee for occupying public resources, what else do others say? There is not much silver, the key is Mr. Li's sincere attitude! ”

"There must be a general in it, I know it in my heart!"

"Don't call me that, just call me a brother, Lord Junwang and Lord Ming are my elders! What kind of help does not help, we are our own family in the future, but I have some rights in my hands at this time, and I can't help anything else. ”

The king of Linhuai County pointed out on the side, "Don't underestimate a few Praetorian Guards, ordinary court officials come here to make way sideways!" ”

Li Zhi hurriedly got up and thanked him: "Then I will be more kind to my brother, how about Qin Long's accord tonight?" I also allow the brothers to say a good word of gratitude in their hearts! ”

Zuo Yun smiled and waved his hand, "I know that your business is booming, but I can't be mistaken because of this, we will have a long time in the future, and there will be a chance to talk!" However, I need to go to your shop to ask my old father for some rice paper, Mr. Li to see if it is feasible? ”

Li Zhixin is very happy, this kind of blatant begging is to treat himself as his own family, and it is more effective than any polite words.

"By the way, bring back the three thousand taels of silver, I have a ready-made vehicle there!"

"Your carriage and horses can't get into here, I'll ask someone to go with you!"

The three of them walked out of the room with a smile, Zuo Yun beckoned the guards and whispered a few words, and led the two of them to the palace gate with open hands.

Not long after, a troika came, sat on the car, Zuo Yun casually handed Li Zhi a jade token: "It's easier to get in and out of this thing, no one will dare to stop you in the future." I don't need to report it in advance, just go and find me! ”

"This entry and exit sign can't be lost or borrowed, General Zuo can take the risk!" The king of Linhuai did not forget to remind.

Talking and laughing all the way, he soon came to Zhengqing Wenqi Hall, parked the carriage outside the passage connecting the backyard door, Li Zhi led the two into the backyard, and a group of officers and soldiers followed.

"Ha, Mr. Li's business is really terrifying for my brother, good guy, just one day's income, there are such a bunches?" In the simple shack where the silver was temporarily stored, Zuo Yun was a little stunned.

Zhengqing Wenqitang does not have so many bamboo baskets, and if you save enough baskets, you will be poured here, less than 20,000 taels of silver, it has become a hill, and the copper coins stacked next to it are also dazzling.

Others didn't know that these were only half of today's numbers, just that, Zuo Yun instantly understood why Li Zhi was in such a hurry to find a warehouse.

Some of the guards rushed to ask Master Liu, who was in charge of financial power, so he naturally needed to come to account.

When several Praetorian Guards squatted on the ground to count the numbers, Master Liu hurriedly came, asked for the details, and asked Zuo Yun vigorously: "The general has helped us solve a big problem, otherwise we will be escorted back to the Eastern Mountains every day, not to mention the fear, the number of police guards occupied is a large number!" ”

Zuo Yun smiled, "I am my own brother with your host, so there is no need to be so polite!" Master Liu, you are always watching here, I want to ask for some rice paper to bring back. ”

Li Zhi gave Master Liu a look, and the old man naturally understood that the officers and soldiers who came always had to give a few taels of silver each, and it was still extremely necessary to make appropriate points.

Coming to the third floor, Li Zhi pointed to the two words, "I don't know when Brother Xiao will go to the Ming Palace?" In the past one or two days, I helped my brother bring these two words over, and yesterday the old king came to ask for it, saying that he needed to appreciate it for a while! ”
