Chapter 162: Accidents
Everyone unanimously decided to take 500 yuan into the account room first, and use it as the cost of repairing the house, buying slaves, mules, horses, etc., and the rest of the money was put away for the time being. For safety, all the gold was moved to Gongsun Lan's house for safekeeping. In Wang Yuan's opinion, there is no safer place in the entire Chang'an City.
Gongsun Lan scoffed at this, laughing at Wang Yuan's petty family, he had never seen the world, so he felt that such a little money was amazing, Wang Yuan ignored it and insisted on this, Gongsun Lan had no choice but to sacrifice the space under his bed and let Wang Yuan hide the gold there.
Wang Yuan was indeed a little childish, because he was restless all morning sitting in the public room of the Hanlin Courtyard, and he didn't read a word of the book. made a windfall all of a sudden, which made Wang Yuan suddenly feel a little overwhelmed. 20,000 is by no means a small amount, it is said that the total budget of the two pavilions in the Xingqing Palace, the Calyx Xianghui Building and the Diligent Government Building, is only 9 million yuan, and the windfall he made is enough to buy four such pavilions, which is the first time for Wang Yuan in his previous life and this life that his pocket is suddenly so bulging.
After drinking several cups of hot tea in a row, after going to the toilet several times, the passion in his heart was slowly drained with the urine, and his mood gradually calmed down, and Wang Yuan finally admitted that he was really a little childish. 20,000 yuan is indeed a lot, but it is not as much as imagined. There are thousands of people with furniture in Chang'an City, and I don't see these people living restlessly every day.
Not to mention anything else, just take the Yang family brothers and sisters around you, which one is not more than your own money? That Yang Zhao bought and sold foreign slaves and maids in a few months, and he paid less than half of the money, and the family made more money every day, more than his own money, and he didn't see Yang Zhao get carried away. Speaking of which, Yang Zhao is not a shabby in Shudi, and he has seen the world anyway, so he will be disturbed by such a little money.
Besides, Mrs. Qiuguo, the two luxurious mansions in and out of the city, the East Garden that I saw on the bank of the Bahe River alone is afraid that it will be worth millions of dollars. There is also the drunken immortal building that I saw that day, and the worth of dozens of Silla maids is millions of dollars, not to mention the price of the garden industry.
Thinking of these, Wang Yuan suddenly found that he was actually very poor, the poor were a little embarrassed to say that they were rich, Chang'an City was more rich than he was, and more importantly, people not only had money but also power, compared with them, he could only barely be regarded as a small nouveau riche.
In the afternoon, Wang Yuan left the palace and went to the palace of Mrs. Qin to give Liu Jun a lesson.
Liu Jun was very dissatisfied, only half of the battle of Weishui was discussed, and he was talking about the difficult situation of the Beifu army facing a large army several times his own, and it was when he couldn't stop, but he was disturbed, so he was naturally not happy at all.
"Mother, what are you doing? I know we're in class but we interrupt it. She forced me to read when I didn't read, and now that I'm reading seriously, she comes to make trouble again. Liu Jun said angrily.
Wang Yuan comforted: "There must be something important, the coming day is long, I will go to school today, I will take a look." Your mother won't interrupt us for no reason. ”
Liu Jun was unwilling, so he had to give up. Wang Yuan walked out of the lecture hall and followed the servant to the door of the back house, and saw the maid Zi'er coming in a hurry, and said angrily when he saw Wang Yuan: "Madame, please you, you are so slow, you are a teacher with a really big shelf." ”
Wang Yuan smiled: "I only gave birth to two legs, and I didn't have wings, can't I fly over?" What kind of madness is this girl? ”
Zi'er said with a heavy face: "If you want to take care of it, don't come with me quickly." ”
Wang Yuan felt very puzzled, and received a speech from this woman for no reason, it seems that he must have been angry somewhere. However, he didn't have the same knowledge as her, and followed her into the inner hall of Mrs. Qin's mansion, and as soon as she entered the courtyard where Mrs. Qin Guo lived, she heard Yang Zhao's familiar voice.
After the report, Wang Yuan entered the house, Mrs. Qin Guo and Yang Zhao both stood up, Yang Zhao laughed and said: "I didn't expect Bachelor Wang to be a teacher, Liu Jun is so difficult to study, just now the eighth sister praised you as a flower." ”
Wang Yuan looked at Mrs. Qin Guo, and Mrs. Qin Guo smiled and said: "This is the case, Jun'er is a stubborn disease in my heart, and now I finally settle down, follow Mr. Wang, and I will definitely have a future in the future." ”
Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Liu Jun is actually very smart and studious, don't think he is stubborn, but you just didn't find his interest." ”
Yang Zhao nodded and said: "What I said is that I don't have such a careful mind as you, I have been busy since I entered Chang'an, and my nephew really didn't care about everything, it's all my fault." ”
Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Is there anything that Madam called me to come for?" ”
Mrs. Qin Guo smiled: "It's my cousin who wants to find you, and the slave is just passing on the word." Liu Jun's child and his cousin don't get along, so he can't let him know that his cousin is looking for you, so he called you to the inner hall. ”
Wang Yuan smiled silently, he already knew the relationship between Liu Jun and Yang Zhao, this uncle and nephew were completely wrong, and when they saw him, their noses were not noses and eyes were not eyes. Several times Wang Yuan heard Liu Jun laugh at him, a distant uncle, who lost the battle when he was a soldier, and finally relied on the help of his mother and several aunts to settle down in Chang'an. Yang Zhao didn't want to provoke Liu Jun, or he didn't want to be embarrassed and offend Mrs. Qin, so he tolerated everywhere and avoided it if he could, so as not to be embarrassed.
"If Yang Duzhi wants to see me, he can go to the Hanlin Academy to find me, I can't be idle in the morning."
"Brother, I can't go too often, so as not to misunderstand, especially in this special period, it's better for me to go to you less publicly, in case someone accidentally says bad things behind you, it's not good." Yang Zhao said with a smile.
Wang Yuan said: "So, something big happened in the court? ”
Yang Zhao said: "Of course, it is precisely when you come to tell you about this, you have a good brain, and you help analyze and analyze." ”
Wang Yuan said with a smile: "Du Zhilang has tormented me, everyone is a staff officer together, let me guess what happened in the DPRK?" Is An Lushan making a lot of trouble, and Li Shizhi is about to fall? ”
Yang Zhao laughed and said: "It seems incredible to say, originally we thought that Li Shizhi would be difficult to escape this catastrophe this time, especially after Xi Jianhou's death without proof, An Lushan would definitely refuse to give up." Moreover, Wang Jie, Yang Shenjin and others also wrote a letter of impeachment, under the attack of the two major forces, guess what happened to the court this morning? ”
Wang Yuan said: "What? ”
"Your Majesty actually just reprimanded Li Shiyi, fined him for a year, and warned him to take evidence in the future, and not to chase after the wind and shadows, so it's over."
Wang Yuan was stunned and said, "That's it?" ”
"Ah, isn't that the end of it?"
Wang Yuan pondered for a while and said, "What is Li Linfu's attitude?" ”
Yang Zhao said: "What other attitude can you have? After going down to court, I was angry and very unhappy, not to mention him, I was also very unhappy. Li Shizhi is not down, isn't it far away for me to recommend Zhang Qiu and Qiong's household department? Then Pei Kuan and Li Shizhi resolutely refused to allow this, and there was nothing I could do. ”
Wang Yuan was silent, relying on the fall of others to put others on the throne, although it is not very authentic, but this is the common rule in the court; If you don't get off me, you can't go up, there are more monks and less porridge, and there are only a few important positions, and the situation is as simple as that.
"I can't figure out Your Majesty's thoughts, why would you report Li Shizhi in such a situation, isn't it difficult to explain?" Yang Zhao said.
Wang Yuan thought for a while and said, "Of course Your Majesty's mind can't guess it, but if this matter is analyzed from another angle, it is not difficult to understand. Madame should remember that I told you a few days ago that Li Shizhi might not fall this time, and Madame didn't believe it at that time, but now it is as I expected. ”
Mrs. Qin Guo nodded and said, "Because of this, I suggested that my cousin come to you for analysis, and I was also surprised that I was actually said by you." ”
Yang Zhao was dissatisfied: "Little Brother Wang, this is yours, since you have already made such a judgment, why don't you tell me?" ”
Wang Yuan said with a smile: "You thought that Li Shizhi would fall at that time, did I tell you that you would believe it?" Besides, I'm not very sure, so I shouldn't say more. ”
Yang Zhao said: "Then can you tell me what happened here?" ”
Wang Yuan nodded and said: "I'll try to analyze it, if there is any fallacy, I hope to point it out, let's refer to it together." ”
Yang Zhao nodded in agreement, and Mrs. Qin Guo ordered hot tea and snacks to be put on the table, and listened to Wang Yuan quietly after retreating from everyone.
