Chapter 210: Clever Speech

After getting out of the early court, Xiao Yu ran to the gate of the harem with an anxious face and waited, and after a while, the Xiao family walked out accompanied by two palace maids.

Looking at Xiao Yu, who was constantly wandering at the door, Xiao's face suddenly showed a hint of surprise.

"Shiwen!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Xiao Yu suddenly turned around slowly, and called out in a trembling voice.

"Sister, Shi Wen is here to pick you up!"

After speaking, Xiao Yu knelt down towards the Xiao clan with a "poof".

Xiao Yu was born in the Later Liang royal family, after the fall of the Later Liang, Xiao Yu followed his sister Xiao into Chang'an, because of the wife of Yang Guang of the Xiao family at that time, so Xiao Yu was also named the king of Xin'an County, and after the Tang Dynasty, he was named the Duke of Song.

The person Xiao Yu remembers the most is none other than his sister Xiao.

In Xiao Yu's heart, even if Xiao's sister is also her mother, the relationship between the two is naturally very deep, when the Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks and Li Ji returned with Xiao and Yuxi, Xiao Yu's excitement was not to mention.

It's a pity that a few days after the Xiao family returned to Chang'an, he was received by Li Shimin in the harem, because Xiao Yu was very opposed to this matter, and even did not hesitate to contradict Li Shimin many times, so the opportunities for Xiao Yu and Xiao to meet became less and less after that.

So when Xiao Yu was really able to take his sister Xiao home, the excitement in his heart was difficult for outsiders to experience.

And Xiao Shi was also very excited, when she heard Xiao Yu's "sister", tears rolled in her eyes, and the moment Xiao Yu knelt down, she couldn't hold back anymore, and two lines of tears suddenly burst out of her eyes.

"Shi Wen, hurry up, you are now a prince of the country, so it's really inappropriate!"

According to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, Xiao's Zhaorong is the concubine of the second rank, and Xiao Yu's title is from the first rank of the national duke, so according to the rules, it should be the Xiao family who salutes Xiao Yu.

After hearing Xiao's words, Xiao Yu immediately smiled.

"Shi Wen salutes his sister, what does it matter to others?"

Although he said that, Xiao Yu was also worried that his behavior would cause trouble for the Xiao family, so he stood up as he spoke.

Seeing him stand up, Xiao also smiled and nodded.

"This time, Your Majesty was able to let me out of the palace, thanks to King Liang, because of my business, King Liang was beaten by His Majesty, I heard that even his mother couldn't recognize him, and you can find a chance to thank him in the future!"

Speaking of this, Xiao's face suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

The king of Liang mentioned by Xiao is Li Su, and Li Su's mother is Yang, that is, Yang Guang's daughter, and Xiao was Yang Guang's wife at the beginning.

Although Concubine Yang is not Xiao's biological daughter, the two used to be a mother-daughter relationship, so over the years, Xiao's situation in the harem has also felt quite embarrassing, and every time Concubine Yang is mentioned, it is replaced by other titles.

Xiao Yu also knew this, and he would avoid talking about this issue in the past, but after listening to Xiao Shi's words at this moment, he laughed out loud.

"Hahahaha, sister, you were wrong this time, I already got the news from King Wu when I came, it was not King Liang who helped my sister this time, but His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Looking at Xiao's surprised look, Xiao Yu nodded again.

"Yes, it's His Royal Highness the Prince, but this matter is a long story, the sedan chair is ready, sister, let's get on the sedan chair first, and then let Shi Wen tell you in detail after I go back!"

Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Xiao Shi also smiled and nodded.

"It's good!"

With that, Xiao got into the sedan chair, and then followed Xiao Yu back.

After returning to Xiaofu, Xiao Yu told Xiao everything he knew from Li Ke, and after listening to the whole thing, Xiao suddenly cried and laughed.

"I have long heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has changed after his serious illness, originally I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true."

After Xiao's words fell, Xiao Yu also nodded.

"Yes, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also has a great influence on His Majesty, even the King of Wei has suffered his loss, and as soon as the King of Wei left, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince occupied the Furong Garden."

Hearing Xiao Yu say this, Xiao immediately covered his mouth and laughed.

"In this way, the prince is really a master who doesn't suffer, Shi Wen, this time we have received his kindness, we must thank him!"

As soon as Xiao's words fell, Xiao Yu showed a helpless face.

"Sister, in fact, I have already been to the East Palace, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that this time he is planning to teach Li Su a lesson, and helping us can be regarded as picking grass and beating rabbits, which is a convenient thing, so we don't need to be grateful to him."

Looking at Xiao Yu with a helpless face, Xiao suddenly smiled even more happily.

"Haha, it seems that the prince is really different, but although he said so, we can't count it like this, if you have the ability in the future, help him more."

"yes, I know!"

Xiao Yu nodded immediately, and then smiled at Xiao Shi.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be ready to make a move against the Zheng family in Xingyang, so he has implemented a series of measures, and he has been in frequent contacts with businessmen recently, and it seems that he will make another move, and I will support him when the time comes."

Hearing Xiao Yu say this, Xiao suddenly showed a look of surprise.

"I've always heard that you're very rigid as an official and don't know how to be flexible, why did you suddenly figure it out this time?"

Looking at Xiao's surprised look, Xiao Yu laughed again.

"Because I only have one sister, okay, let's talk about this later, lunch is ready, let's go together!"

Hearing Xiao Yu say this, Xiao Shi also smiled and nodded, and the sister and brother looked at each other again, and they both saw the inseparable family affection in each other's eyes, which warmed people's hearts.

When the sisters and brothers of the Xiao family felt the warmth of family affection, Gao Ming was experiencing the "bombardment" of family affection.

"Big brother, woo woo...... Big brother, woo woo woo woo ......"

Looking at Li Su, who was sitting opposite him crying grief-stricken, the corners of Gao Ming's mouth suddenly twitched several times.

"Sixth, don't cry so badly, okay? Those who know say that you were beaten so you feel bitter, and those who don't know think that I am dead! ”

After speaking, Gao Ming picked up a piece of cake from the table and stuffed it directly into Li Su's mouth.

"Eat, turn grief and anger into appetite, eat hard, and your heart will feel better after eating."

After hearing Gao Ming's words, Li Su nodded suddenly, and then devoured the cake.

"Hmm...... Let's ......."

After a while, a plate of cakes was all eaten by Li Su, at this time Li Su wiped his mouth, and then looked at Gao Ming pitifully.

"Brother, can I ask you something?"

Hearing his words, Gao Ming immediately raised his eyebrows at him.

"Would you like another plate of bread?"

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Su hurriedly shook his head.

"No, I want to beg you not to pit me in the future, I almost died this time, brother, I'm bitter, woo woo woo ......"

“……”

Seeing him crying so heartbroken, Gao Ming had no choice but to sigh, and then nodded.

"Sixth, you really don't blame me this time, who told you to show your IQ with me? Now you know that we only see the difference in IQ, right? ”

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Li Su first nodded vigorously, and then looked at Gao Ming with a puzzled expression.

"Big brother, what is IQ, can you eat it?"

“……”

Gao Ming was silent, and after a long while, he patted Li Su's shoulder with a sympathetic face.

"Forget it, this thing is too profound, I guess even if I explain it to you, you won't understand, so you just need to live well."

“……”

After sending Li Yu away, Gao Ming called Ye Feng over.

"Ye Feng, you go and tell Wu Mei for me, just let her buy the restaurant opposite the Datang Royal Club today, and then hang the sign of the Datang Royal Business Alliance, as for the internal furnishings, refer to the Royal Club, let her get it done within half a month, go!"

"Yes!"

Ye Feng agreed and went out.

After Ye Feng left, Gao Ming called Su Wan'er to the study, and then smiled at her.

"Wan'er, come and help me write a few words, I'll read you to write!"

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince!"

After speaking, she began to grind the ink and paper, and after seeing that she was ready, Gao Ming nodded.

"Business is humanity, no virtue, no wealth......"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Wan'er's eyes suddenly widened, to be precise, she was frightened.

Since ancient times, everything that involves the word "Dao" is not something that ordinary people can touch, Kong said Chengren Meng said to take righteousness, these are the embodiment of the Tao, if anyone gets it, if it is not done well, I am afraid that it will be scolded by ten thousand people.

So at this moment, Su Wan'er was shocked.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are you going to say it?"

Su Wan'er was born in a scholarly family and knew the most important "three immortals" for literati, namely "virtue", "meritorious service" and "theory".

To establish virtue is to set an immortal moral standard for future generations, which Confucius and Mencius have already done, so they have become saints and sub-saints.

Meritorious service is to make immortal meritorious deeds, which is different in each dynasty, and these "meritorious" people, their names will be invited to the temple to enjoy the incense and worship of future generations.

Because of this, the first thing the new ruler does when there is a change of dynasty is to destroy the temple of the previous dynasty and replace it with his own.

And the so-called "standing theory", as the name suggests, is to write books and make speeches, let their thoughts and opinions influence future generations, and become the standard for future generations, so that future generations can remember their names, so that they will be remembered for generations, which is also the goal of all literati who have been pursuing all their lives!

At this time, Gao Ming, one of his feet has already stepped on the first step of "Lishuo"!

Nowadays, the status of Datang businessmen is low, and there is no so-called code of conduct, so Su Wan'er believes that as long as Gao Ming's remarks are further implemented, it will inevitably become the standard of behavior of Datang businessmen.

At that time, for the merchants, Gao Ming's sentence "Business is humane, and there will be no wealth without virtue" is no less than the influence of Confucius's sentence "Learn and learn from time to time, and not to say" on Confucianism!

If that time comes, Gao Ming will also become a saint, not a Confucian saint, but a saint of businessmen -

Shang Sheng!

Thinking of this, Su Wan'er's face suddenly turned red with excitement.

"Lang Jun, if you can succeed this time, you can become a merchant saint, and the concubine is really happy for you!"

Hearing Su Wan'er's words, Gao Ming showed a confused face.

"Mulberries? Why should I be a mulberry? What's there to be happy about? ”
