Chapter 288: Li Er's Suspicions
The heavy snow on the grassland is non-stop, and Chang'an, which is thousands of miles away, is also covered in silver at this time. It's just that unlike the non-stop snowstorms on the grassland, although the snow in Chang'an comes for a long time, it is fortunately slow.
Therefore, although it has been snowing since the month of Wax, until January now, the heavy snow has not caused much damage to Chang'an.
On the contrary, it brings an incomparable aesthetic landscape, living in the north of the city overlooking the Chang'an Palace, the snow is wrapped in the mountains, the clouds are wrapped around the belt, and the sunset is dyed. This is a poetic season for scholars.
And for those farmers who are gearing up, it is also a season full of hope. In a good year, heavy snow not only freezes the eggs in the fields, but also provides essential water for the next year's crops.
The lives of the farmers depend on these fields, and even if it is a cold winter, they can always pick up some frozen hares and pheasants from the fields, which is another "good harvest" for them.
Song Fang was also picking pheasants, but instead of picking them up in the field, he was in an empty courtyard.
The courtyard should not have been empty, it should have been full of people, and the smoke should rise from the chimney, from which an enchanting fragrance would waft out......
But now everything is cold, because his master is not here.
As soon as he thought of the fragrance, Song Fang felt that his stomach was purring, and he thought of the flower chicken made by Qin Ze, and he thought of the steaming noodles. But now, although I have a pheasant in my hand, I always feel that it is not good to make it.
"Squeak squeak~"
There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Song Fang frowned. This courtyard was the mansion that Li Er rewarded Qin Ze, and now because Qin Ze was out fighting, it was completely deserted, how could there be footsteps?
Song Fang quickly climbed onto the eaves on one side, and then jumped off the roof with great force, and then lay on it motionless and stared down. At the same time, he already held a long sword in his hand, and in the absence of the master, it was up to them to protect the safety of the courtyard.
A chubby figure emerged from a corner, and Song Fang breathed a sigh of relief after just one look. Then one of the men exerted force, and the whole person jumped off the roof.
Isn't it Chen Daniu, this foodie hand-picked by Qin Ze......
"How did you get in?" Song Fang looked at Chen Daniu and asked with some puzzlement. In order to ensure that their identities are not discovered, every time they come here, they come secretly, and they always leave a person outside. There is nothing important, Chen Daniu should not come in.
This courtyard used to be the mansion of a lieutenant general, but that guy was unlucky, and he was exiled for taking bribes within a few years. And since then, this courtyard has been empty, and I have to say that although it is a mansion of a lieutenant general, the luxury of the construction is definitely not bad.
This naturally attracts some unruly people, who always want to enter this mansion to explore a thing or two. Since Li Er rewarded this mansion to Qin Ze, the Song Fang and they have taken on the responsibility of guarding this place. And during this time, they have driven out no less than a dozen people with ulterior motives.
Every day, they will send people to guard here, and today it is Song Fang and Chen Daniu who are in charge.
"Just now, Xiao Liuzi came to report a bad news." Chen Daniu looked at Song Fang with a somewhat embarrassed face, and added at the end: "It's about the young master." ”
"Huh?"
Song Fang frowned, then threw the pheasant in his hand to Chen Daniu, and walked out of the courtyard with him.
Today's beggar gang can be said to be the largest gang in the entire Chang'an, and its personnel are mixed, even if the government sees it, it is a headache. But because Song Fang and they neither steal nor rob one by one, the government can't hold any handle.
On the contrary, in order to solve the problem of these displaced people, the government will also select some people from among them to be bad people. The starting point was originally to disintegrate the beggar gang, but I didn't expect that this would happen, but on the contrary, the entire Chang'an Three Sects and Nine Streams, all aspects were infiltrated by the beggar gang. So they are the most well-informed in Chang'an.
No one knew how many people there were, and Qin Ze had expected it to grow to this point.
There is no way that there are more and more people affected by the disaster, and because the beggars are still supported by Wang Fu's funds. So naturally, there are a large number of homeless people who are willing to join it, and the news in Chen Daniu's mouth was heard from the mouth of a person named Xiao Liuzi.
Chen Daniu took the pheasant handed over by Song Fang, and suddenly remembered the flower chicken that Qin Ze made before. You must know that he was able to serve Qin Ze so happily at the beginning, not because it was called Huaji.
"I'll talk about it when I get back to it." Song Fang interrupted Chen Daniu's move to report, waved his hand and said.
Another reason why the beggars can unite so many people is that all decisions are based on everyone's opinions. And with the news, it is natural to share it with each other.
The structure of the beggar gang is very simple now, and the leaders are Song Fang, Sun Sheng, Chen Daniu, and Wu Si. They lived in a ruined temple three miles behind the mansion.
Although the conditions are simple, none of them have ever cried bitterly. Because at least they can fill their stomachs, and that's enough to satisfy them.
Chen Daniu was also not interested in dealing with pheasants, but immediately told the news he had heard.
"Now it is rumored in Chang'an that after our young master was exiled to the Turks, he has taken refuge in Jieli. I also put forward something like a white stack of floor heating, and I heard that as long as these things can be implemented, the Turkic winter will never freeze to death again. Chen Daniu said everything he had heard, and all four of them fell silent for a while.
After half a ring, Song Fang asked aloud: "Where did the news come from?" ”
"Drunken Chunlou, in the mouths of those scholars."
"Could it be the Cui family's ghost again?" As soon as Sun Sheng heard that it was a scholar, he immediately asked.
"Those people have no friendship with the Cui family, and I heard from Hu Shang of the Tang Dynasty that such a person did appear on the grassland. The matter of floor heating and white stacks is also true. Although Chen Daniu claims to be a foodie, his brain is not stupid at all. It's just that he prefers to use his brain for eating compared to these.
"I'll go to Shaopu Cloth Village." Song Fang frowned and thought for a moment, then Tie Qing put down a sentence and began to walk out.
In all respects, the scholars always have the initiative. And in order to show their initiative, they will use the fastest speed to pass on the news they hear.
So soon, the news has spread throughout Chang'an. Li Er found that Hu Shang, but he was just a greedy person who was afraid of death, and he said everything with a little intimidation.
The news available is even more unoptimistic, there is indeed such a figure circulating in the steppe, and almost all the Hu merchants who passed through the Turks know about it......
Since the beginning of winter, the eldest grandson's body has been a little unwell. She has always had a qi disease, which gets worse when the air is dry. So at this time, she was concentrating on staying in the house to take care of Li Zhi, but now she came to the Lizheng Palace.
Because Li Er was angry again in the court today, I heard that even Du Laohei couldn't persuade him.
The eldest grandson Wuji had already told the eldest grandson the reason, so she had to come forward at this time.
When the eldest grandson came, Li Er was pounding his head with his fists non-stop. This scene also made the eldest grandson feel distressed for a while, and hurriedly rushed up and grabbed Li Er's hand.
"Second brother, don't be like this." The eldest grandson stretched out his hand to untie the ribbon from his head, and then gently wrapped it around Li Er's forehead.
The long hair was draped in an instant, and the long ends of the hair made Li Er's nose itch unbearably, and he couldn't help but sneeze out at the moment. The appearance is a little unbearable.
"Hehe, today the concubine heard that the second brother was angry. Even Du Shangshu had no choice, but he didn't want to be sent away by the strand of hair of the concubine. The eldest grandson covered his mouth and smiled secretly, but with his other hand, he took out a handkerchief, leaned down and wiped the corners of Li Er's mouth.
The fragrance is fragrant, the long hair is like a crisp, especially the clean smile when they first met, which instantly made Li Er lose a trace of temper. took the eldest grandson in his arms.
"Second brother...... "The eldest grandson muttered in a low voice, only to feel a hand wandering over his body, making the eldest grandson's body weak.
"Guanyin, give me another prince."
"Ahh
…………
Since Li Zhi was born, the eldest grandson has not let Li Er touch him again. Every time, he drove him to other concubines, but the suppressed emotions of the two of them today could no longer be suppressed.
Long......
"Second brother is worried about Uncle Jingyang?" The eldest grandson snuggled in Li Er's arms and said softly.
"I'm afraid it's not groundless this time, except for him who can do those things, I can't think of anyone else who has the ability to do this." Li Er frowned and said lightly: "Although I don't know what that floor heating is, I heard that with that thing, the Turkic winter is like midsummer, and I also heard that the clothes made of white stacks, as long as you wear them, you won't feel cold even if you roll in the snow." If this is the case, it is really my Datang's misfortune. ”
As soon as Li Er's words fell, he heard the eldest grandson in his arms laugh out loud.
"Why is Guanyin laughing?" Li Er asked a little puzzled.
The eldest grandson sat up from Li Er's arms with a smile, picked up the ribbon on the ground and began to coil his hair, and said while coiling: "Since the second brother believes in his ability, he should believe in his personality." Although the concubine had not met him a few times, she did not believe that he would do such a thing. ”
"That kid is afraid of death."
"It's because he's afraid, so the second brother should believe him even more. Has the second brother forgotten the military rations and the Cui family? Saying this, the eldest grandson had already coiled up his long hair, smiled slyly at Li Er, and continued: "He! It's never been a loss. If Jieli really believed him, he might not be the one who suffered in the end. ”
As soon as the eldest grandson said this, Li Er also reacted. He has always put his mind on floor heating, but he has forgotten who Qin Ze is. What this guy is best at is playing tricks......
"Haha......" Li Er laughed. Then he stared at the eldest grandson who was arranging his hair on the side, and suddenly reached out and pulled her long hair that had just been coiled up again......
