Chapter 53: Embarrassment

(Xie Zeng drank the reward of the Canghai brothers, the book has changed its status, and those who have monthly passes can give a few, and those who are willing to reward are very grateful.) )

When Li Shizhi was celebrating his victory in the mansion, a large mansion in the southeast corner of Pingkangfang was also brightly lit. This is Li Linfu's mansion.

Speaking of this mansion, there is a story that circulates in the streets; This official residence was originally the residence of Li Jing, the founding father of the Tang Dynasty, who followed Li Shimin to establish meritorious services in the southern and northern wars. At that time, Pingkangfang in Chang'an City was not a gathering place for fireworks and willow lanes, and Li Jing was very particular about choosing his mansion here.

First of all, Pingkangfang is close to the imperial city, and it is only necessary to go out to meet the saint in the palace, and it is convenient to see the emperor and accept the emperor's summons, and it will never make the emperor anxious. And living close to the emperor is an honor in itself, and non-heroes do not have this kind of treatment.

Secondly, to the east of Pingkangfang is the East Market, and in the words of the future, there is a supermarket near the community, and life is extremely convenient. In the Fang District near the left of Datang East City, the land is the most expensive, which is also very related to the convenience of shopping and trading.

Moreover, the house in the southeast of Pingkangfang, Li Jing invited Mr. Feng Shui to see it, and it is the most prosperous place for people, and it is an excellent location. Therefore, Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, settled a mansion in the southeast of Pingkangfang.

It's a pity that Li Jing didn't calculate whether the descendants were angry, although he was prosperous and honored in his life, but in the hands of the descendants, it was not as good as the next generation, and after a few losers, even the last Patriotic Mansion could not be sold.

During the Kaiyuan period, Li Linfu became a royal official, and gradually gained some power, and the emperor gradually trusted him, his original house lived in Xicheng, too far away from the palace, and was looking for a house close to the palace, which was convenient for entering the palace. At this time, an old Taoist who knew how to read feng shui that Li Jing's mansion had good feng shui, and if he could live here, he would be rich and rich.

So Li Linfu smashed the pot and sold iron to buy this mansion and moved in, and sure enough, from then on, Li Linfu rose to the top until he sat on the throne of the right prime minister, and he sat for more than ten years, and he was favored to the extreme.

Of course, the above are just some of the stories circulating in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, but all the people who have made a fortune and are favored will always make up some anecdotes about this person in the market, either they have a vision when they were born, or they have some magical prophecy, all in all, this kind of remarks is just a very boring conversation of the idlers in the teahouse and wine shop, and no one will be idle to run to verify its authenticity.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the study room of the third exquisite back house of this magical mansion was slightly depressed, and the expressions on the faces of the four or five people sitting high and low were a little dignified. Li Linfu sat on top in a wide silk robe, and in front of him was a pot of burning red charcoal; Although it is early spring, the spring breeze cannot compete with the winter that has not gone for a long time, and it is still bitterly cold at night.

"What are you doing with your weeping faces? It's just a failure of a poetry meeting, the old man doesn't care, the nerd Li Shizhi is happy and makes him happy, what is this? Li Linfu was fascinated, slowly glanced at the people in front of him with the eyes in the gap between his eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"Although Xiangguo doesn't care, we are extremely self-blaming, Li Shizhi has never turned over in the past four years, Xiangguo said back then, Li Shizhi is not self-sufficient, he will overturn him in his most proud place, but I didn't expect him to turn over today. It is a lowly offense, please punish the country, otherwise I will feel uneasy. Yang Shenjin, who was sitting at the bottom right of Li Linfu, blamed himself, and his voice was full of sincerity.

Li Linfu waved his hand and said, "Why do you have to be like this, the old man said that he doesn't care." ”

Yang Shenjin still said: "That's Xiangguo's relief, but he can't help but blame himself." ”

Wang Jie, who was sitting on the left side and was stretching out his hand to bake the fire, frowned and said: "Why should Yang Shangshu be hypocritical, Xiangguo has said that he doesn't care, why are you still hypocritical here?" It's just a poetry meeting. ”

Yang Shen said angrily: "I blame myself from the bottom of my heart, why did it become hypocritical in your mouth." You Wang Ji should also blame yourself, you are responsible for selecting talented people to participate in the poetry meeting, why are they all wastes, and no one has suppressed Wang Yuan. ”

Wang Ji also glared at each other, and said in a deep voice: "Who would have thought that Li Shizhi would dig up such a living treasure from nowhere and turn out to be born and ruin today's things?" Originally, the two poems that Wang Yuan wrote before the poetry meeting were just good, who knew that this guy went crazy at the poetry meeting and wrote such good poems? Do you know how difficult it is for Du Fu to speak? I even coaxed and deceived him to take out to threaten him before he was willing to participate in the poetry meeting, you tell me, if you can compare to Du Fu in poetry? ”

Yang Shen said: "That's because you didn't think it through. ”

Wang Ji jumped up and shouted, "Then why don't you go to Xiangguo to punish me?" I'm afraid you'd have wanted to do that. ”

Yang Shenjin pointed at Wang Ji and said, "You ......"

Wang Ji said: "What am I? When I said that I was thinking, I was speechless, right? ”

Li Linfu stretched out his hand and patted the armrest, making a 'bang' sound, and the two cockfighting cocks shook at the same time, and each sat down stupidly.

"It's not a big deal, you two are still arguing here, it's better than the people below. The victory or defeat of the poetry meeting is like a mustard in the eyes of the old man, and the old man just looks at Li Shizhi's face and is not very comfortable. If you really blame yourself, you should think about how to vent your anger, instead of making noise and angry old man here. ”

Wang Ji and Yang Shenjin hurriedly got up at the same time and confessed to Li Linfu.

Li Linfu waved his hand and said, "That's it, sit down." Today, Li Shizhi is in a good mood, and finally look at his proud appearance, hehe, the old man is really pitiful for him. Speaking of which, he was rarely happy, no wonder he was. ”

Wang Ji said: "Xiangguo rest assured, this Wang Yuan will definitely find an opportunity to get rid of him, in the past few years, there have always been some people who are not long-sighted to come out to cause trouble, and in the end it is not to harm himself." ”

Li Linfu sighed: "It's a pity, it's really a poet, look at Wang Wei's appearance, it's like picking up a treasure, it's a pity." This Li Shizhi has killed a lot of people in the past few years, and so many people have died because of him, doesn't he know in his heart? ”

Yang Shenjin said: "He must know, it's just that he is pretending to be confused, in order to sing against Xiangguo and maintain his remaining reputation, he can't care about the lives of these people." But this time this Wang Yuan, I don't know if he will keep him. ”

Wang Ji said: "Protect him? What kind of insurance to take? Unless he protects Wang Yuan in his mansion every day, I will have the opportunity to take Wang Yuan's life. ”

Yang Shenjin waved his hand and said: "Maybe he doesn't have to be like this, this Wang Yuan will definitely be famous in Chang'an City, I am worried that if this person is really too famous like Li Bai back then, we will not be able to kill him." Do you remember that Li Bai back then? Gao Lishi was mad with anger, and Sangkook also suffered a lot from this madman, but he couldn't kill him. ”

Li Linfu frowned and said, "You mean, this Wang Yuan's reputation will reach the ears of the one in the palace?" After he summoned him, he really couldn't do anything. ”

Yang Shenjin said: "It's hard to say, the Holy Aicai should know this Xiangguo more than the humble position, that Li Bai was not only rude to Xiangguo and Gao Lishi, but also rude to the Holy Lord." But the Holy One not only did not kill him, but also summoned him to the Hanlin Academy. The saint is wise and martial, and he doesn't need to be so famous, he can only say that the saint likes this kind of poetry. ”

Li Linfu smiled and said: "Shen Jin, you are very good, now you know how to figure out the holy will, and the head of the analysis is the Tao." ”

Yang Shenjin was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "I don't dare to be lowly, I just talk nonsense casually, and the purpose is not for the things in front of me." ”

Li Linfu waved his hand and said, "Don't be afraid, can the people here still sell you?" Besides, what you say is not necessarily unreasonable, and what you are worried about is not necessarily unreasonable. However, according to the old man, this kind of thing can only happen once, and the saint will not summon the second Li Bai into the palace. What's more, this Wang Yuan is still far behind Li Bai. However, Shen Jin's words gave the old man a wake-up call, if Li Shizhi wanted to protect Wang Yuan, he would definitely recommend Wang Yuan to the saint. It's just that now the saint is not very satisfied with Li Shizhi because of Wei Jian's matter, and he may not dare to recommend Wang Yuan at this time, so that Wang Ji will have a chance to start. Ahead of him. ”

Wang Ji nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it myself for a few days, and let them get away for a few days." ”

Li Linfu smiled slightly, grabbed the teapot and drank a few sips of tea, and in a blink of an eye, he fell on a middle-aged man with an obscene appearance sitting in the corner, and asked, "Ji Wen, tell them about what you told the old man." ”

The obscene man hurriedly got up and saluted Yang Shenjin, Wang Ji and the others, and said, "I am under the orders of Xiangguo to monitor the whereabouts of Wei Jian and Huangfu Weiming in the name of Jingzhao Mansion, and these two have left the capital yesterday morning to be degraded. Yesterday morning, a practice banquet was set up in the Twelve Mile Pavilion of Baqiao, and Li Shizhi, Pei Kuan, Li Yong and others were present to see them off. ”

Wang Ji asked, "Is there any one from the prince present?" ”

Ji Wen said: "Li Fuguo, one of the chamberlains in the prince's mansion, was present and toasted. Before Wei Jian got on the horse, he said that he would find the people who framed him one by one to settle the score, and although he left Chang'an, there would always be a time to return to Chang'an to settle the score. The tone was extremely arrogant, and those people echoed it. ”

Wang Ji said angrily: "This dog thing, after escaping the dog's life, still dares to speak wildly." ”

Li Linfu sneered: "Hehe, what he said is not wild words, what he said is from the heart." This time, the grass was cut down without roots, and it would not be long before revenge was met. ”

Yang Shenjin said: "How come? The emperor won't believe them anymore, what chance will Wei Jian and Huangfu Weiming have to come back? Xiangguo sits here, and the two of them will never have a chance to turn over. ”

Li Linfu's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "You are wrong, of course they have a chance, this opportunity is the prince's accession to the throne, the day the prince ascends the throne, we will have our heads on the ground, this is their biggest opportunity." ”
