Chapter 93: Crisis (5)
The Zhixian Fang in the west of Chang'an City, before the Wu Dynasty, was originally the residence of the envoys of the state dynasties, and in the words of later generations, it was the Beijing Office.
Later, due to various changes, these mansions were slowly abandoned, and in Kaiyuan, they were sold by the imperial court, and the price would naturally be much cheaper, and Rao was so, and it was not something that ordinary people, or even ordinary officials, could afford.
Dali Si Zhiyuanzai lives in this area, at this time, with his official salary, let alone buying, even renting is a little difficult, but fortunately, his wife still has some savings, and she will not be too embarrassed for a while.
When he returned home, he unexpectedly found a familiar figure talking to his wife in the hall.
Wang Yunxiu always has a just right smile on her face, neither overly enthusiastic, nor misunderstood, with the demeanor of a lady, which is a good education received from birth, and it has been cultivated almost engraved in the bones.
Her father's name is Wang Zhonghe.
"My husband is back, let's talk, I'm out of company."
The position where she was sitting, facing the door, saw the figure of her husband at a glance, quickly got up, squatted down and saluted.
"Sister-in-law, please."
Liu Shan didn't dare to look at her, got up and saluted back, and when she walked into the back hall, he turned around and greeted Yuan Zai, who had just walked into the lobby.
"Brother Gongfu."
"Renfu, when did you arrive in Beijing?" Yuan Zai was pleasantly surprised, and stepped forward to take a closer look at his arm: "Looking at your complexion, it must be more than one day." ”
Liu Dan shook his head with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many days, you still like to pretend to be a ghost like this, but you don't believe it, you are in Beijing, you will not hear of it." ”
"Haha, I just heard about it, congratulations, the first letter sent by the ministry in two months fell on you, and I didn't dare to believe it, but I had to believe it."
The two sat opposite each other in the hall, and in the middle was a low table, and some people had already offered some dried fruits, cheese, wine, etc., tea and other things, which had not yet become a common hospitality, and even the practice was very different from that of later generations.
As the master, Wonjae poured wine for him while secretly thinking about his intentions in his heart.
"Please."
No matter how anxious he was, the etiquette still had to be said, Liu Shan picked up the cup, drank a cup with him, and spoke slowly.
"It's not a secret, I arrived in Beijing three days ago, and I was summoned into the palace as soon as I came, why did Your Majesty have this intention, and now it is still like falling into the clouds, and I am about to come to find my brother to solve my doubts."
Wonjae glanced at him, picked up the flask unhurriedly, and poured it for him.
"I can't think of you Liu Renfu, and there are times when you can't say anything, don't you know why? People say that the son depends on the father's shadow, but you are the father and the son are expensive, and you envy others. ”
Liu Shan was exposed by him, and he was not annoyed, so he said that he was tempting, if he couldn't even find out such news, then he would be a visiting old friend today.
"When, Dali Si Zhi, doing the work of a spy."
"It's an eventful season, and you have to prick up your ears, and who knows which cloud will make it rain?"
Liu Dan laughed, knowing that the time had come.
"Brother and Donggong, are there any acquaintances?"
"Then it depends on whether Renfu is here for himself or for others." Yuan Jae took the wine cup and turned it in his hand, revealing a playful expression.
Speaking of which, he is not a subordinate official of the East Palace, and he can get close to the East Palace, thanks to the relationship between his wife, you must know that Wang Zhonghei was once the prince's playmate, and the two have an extraordinary friendship.
"What do you say for yourself, and what do you say for others?"
"If Renfu is for himself, and the prince praises you, what should you do, you know very well, if it is for others, you can only say, it will come naturally, understand?"
Liu Dan was stunned: "There is no room for this matter to turn around?" ”
"It turned out to be for this, I might as well tell you the truth, before returning to the house, the prince has already sent someone to the high mansion, if things go well, if the one is in doubt, you go back and persuade him, this is not only the prince's meaning, the Son of Heaven also nodded."
Speaking of which, Liu Dan still didn't understand something, and suddenly lost his mind for a while, Yuan Zai looked at his expression in surprise, a little puzzled.
"It's not your head and tail, what are you doing?"
Liu Dan sighed: "Don't hide it from Brother Yuan, the dog and the lady of the Fengfu have already had a marriage contract." ”
"Ahh Won Jae was so surprised that the cup almost dropped.
"Your eldest man is already married, presumably Gorou, but didn't he get the blue eyes of the Son of Heaven and intend to recruit him as a concubine?"
"The strange thing is here, two children, who agree to be together, but now they are going to be broken up, how can it be so coincidental?"
Yuan Zai was a little speechless: "One is going to marry a princess, the other is going to become a princess, how many people can't look forward to a good thing, you are worried here, what is the matter of the little children, what is the matter, your Liu Mansion is not five surnames and seven gates, Guan Long is a powerful person, become the son of heaven's family, not to mention, befriend the prince, in your career, there is still a lot of help, this account, but you have to be careful, don't lose big because of small things." ”
Listening to his persuasion, Liu Dan silently drank all the wine in the cup, and a burning sensation surged up his throat, making his face unbearably hot.
In the Gao Mansion, Gao Xianzhi also bought a table of wine, and cooked with Feng Changqing, only Cen Shen was the only one to accompany him, and several small ones were all driven out of the middle hall, so as not to be strict with their mouths and be taken advantage of.
"Feng Er, you have such a temperament, you are too stubborn, to be your superior, if you are not good-tempered, you will be angry to death, now that you have become the lord of a town, it is okay to be in Anxi, what kind of place is the capital, how many pairs of eyes are staring, waiting for you, the son of heaven, to make a mistake, you are good, you don't even leave a little room, offend the prince ruthlessly, what will you do in the future?"
Feng Changqing shook his head: "If you don't do this, how can the prince say it, the backyard will catch fire first, if so, Wulang will take Sanniang and leave, then it will be a big disaster." ”
Gao Xianzhi and Cen Shen were stunned.
"No, his father is still in the house."
"His temperament, where can Liu Renfu suppress it, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't have been thrown in Anxi for several years."
"You can refuse the prince, but can Liu Fu refuse the will of the Son of Heaven?"
Feng Changqing didn't know that this was a dead end, and the result was likely to be unbearable to him, but it was just a step at a time.
But he must take this step of his own, because only by letting Liu Ji see his determination, the latter will not take risks, the matter is too big, this time, he is really powerless.
I can only hope that the good luck since the war can continue in this kid's body, and the miracles created by the other party one after another seem to give him an indescribable confidence, that is.
There is nothing that can stump Liu Wulang!
