Chapter 142: Change

When the wind was blowing and the east wind was blowing, Liu Xu pulled the sails of the three big ships, and his heart on the way home was very cheerful, as if every cell in his body was jumping.

It is said that fireworks go down to Yangzhou in March, at this time the beautiful scenery of Yangzhou must be the most beautiful, but no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it can't stop its own anxious heart, go directly, and then enter the canal, in the past two years, widening and strengthening the canal, is a major event in the court, in order to facilitate pedestrians, Li Ke this guy actually built a jacking bridge on the canal, two huge wooden plank bridges, with the help of pulleys, when the big boat passes, pull it up directly, and usually close, such a feat has been highly praised by his son Li Er, although, This thing is very labor-intensive and material-intensive, and the weight that the bridge can bear is some, but after all, it is an epoch-making innovation.

The dam, the use of the water level to lift and fall to pass ships, so that the flow of the canal can be more gentle, along the way to set up a wharf in the town, on the wharf to open warehouses and hotels, as well as patrol boats, dispatch the passage of boats, to prevent mutual crowding, these measures, actually all completed in this short period of two years, although on both sides of the canal, Liu Xu saw a lot of foreign captives and clansmen building embankments, but Liu Xu did not feel any guilt at all, this is the Tang Dynasty, a strong synonym, strongman, There should be this strongman posture.

When he was about to arrive in Luoyang, the holy decree had already come, and when he entered Chang'an, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, Cen Wenwen, led many ministers to greet him with a smile. It's funny, I didn't use this treatment when I came back from defeat, but I got a cheap one today.

Of course, people must be self-aware, Liu Xu's purpose today is to show the nobles and rich people in Chang'an the wealth he brought back from the South China Sea, it seems that Li Er's heart is also very big, he is ready to make an amazing deal, gather all the rich and noble around Chang'an, and make a great voyage.

Pearls, diamonds, spices, agate, ebony, as well as precious white elephants, five-colored parrots, these are all going into Li Er's pocket, of course, Liu Xu's fortunate expenses Li Er will not give it, for example, that guy's holy decree said that if he gives the princess of the Cham country to himself, he doesn't need to bring it back to the palace to see me or something, this word makes Liu Xu want to scold his mother, I'll give it to you, you or? Malegobi's.

It is impossible to really give, who is sick to give their women to others? That's Li Er's quirk, he likes to give this minister a palace maid, and that minister a talent. Of course, it's not a real gift, it's mainly used to scare people, isn't Fang Xuanling still because of this, his wife got the name of a vinegar lady, don't you dare to ask for it, eighty percent of the palace maids are from Lijingmen, if you want it, you don't dare to talk in your dreams when you sleep at night.

The ministers' eyes are red, the gems are too dazzling in the sun, the last time Yan Gao took people to Lingnan, many nobles are still hesitating, this time I can't wait to kill the South China Sea in person, is this going to run a sea boat, this is to rob money! After a trip of millions, even if it is a joint stock, how much money will be shared? And it's just three ships.

The big sun in June couldn't suppress their enthusiasm, one by one, their eyes widened, and they opened their ears to listen to the waiter to read these treasures, from morning to afternoon, Liu Xu's belly was drumming, and he finished reading some of the most precious things, as for the ebony spices, who still reads them, they are all pulled by boats, and then auctioned them off.

Li Er suppressed a smile and dispersed, this is estimated to be the longest court meeting, Liu Xu did not escape, was directly arrested into the palace, the eldest grandson came up with tears in his eyes and twisted Liu Xu's ears around, as if it was very funny, Xiaoya, a fifteen-year-old girl, also threw herself directly into her brother's arms and cried loudly, the two-year-old son is the most pleasing, at first glance it is smart, I still remember Liu Xu, and directly babbled and stretched out her hand to Liu Xu to hug.

Changle tried his best to maintain the demeanor that he should have as a princess, but in the end, he hugged Liu Xu fiercely in the corner where no one saw it, and nodded his red lips like a dragonfly, and ran like a little rabbit.

Li Yuan, who was on a dragon's head cane, was already very old, and he walked with three steps and one step, but he still had a lot of strength to slap Liu Xu's arm, and said with a smile that he was a good child.

Concubine Yang handed over a standard white robe to Liu Xu's hands, and she felt like a wanderer's top, she regarded Liu Xu and Li Ke the same. And this robe will also be the clothes that Liu Xu needs to wear for the crown ceremony.

After hurriedly meeting a few familiar people in the palace, although the eldest grandson still had a lot to ask herself, she still kicked herself out, knowing that Liu Xu's family was waiting more urgently, as for Liu Xu's story, she had time to listen, this bastard came back, Li Yuan said that he would live a little longer, let alone himself?

Just simply put some pastries, the stomach was still growling, so hungry that the chest was close to the back, as soon as he entered the Hou Mansion, he shouted loudly to eat, Yun Yan was ready to be sensational, but the atmosphere was completely ruined, and he climbed directly on Liu Xu's back and pinched it without a little rustiness, this hurts, it's really happy!

Since he climbed up, he must not let him go down, Zhu Bajie carried his daughter-in-law, Liu Xu also had to carry it once, and the people laughed and envied, which made Yun Yan, the housewife, blush, and then thought about it, and raised her head decisively, what are you ashamed of, this is her husband, she likes her husband to the core, for him, she will be a "slut" by herself. Of course, she can't say these embarrassing things, leaning on Liu Xu's hot back, her face is also hot, no, she has to meet the queen tomorrow, doesn't it mean that a woman can't meet a man when she gets married? In the end, she is the daughter of the royal family, no matter how she twists it, in order for her husband to be safe and secure in the future, she still has to go back to her "mother's house" once.

Xiao Meiniang, as the elder of the Liu Mansion, naturally wants to sit in the chief, she now regards herself as the elder of the Liu Mansion, sitting in the middle of the table with Liu Xu, her eyes squinted with a smile, and kept saying that she was going to worship the Buddha and chant the scriptures, but later I found out that she hadn't read that thing for a year, and now that she picked it up, will the Buddha Tianzun blame these things? Forget it, read something, your own "son" is a "fairy" instead of reading those, it's better to take a good look at this bastard boy.

"Xu'er, my aunt's inscriptions have been engraved, and Liu Xiao's is written on it, what do you think?"
