Chapter 123: The Eve of the Chamber of Commerce
The horse's hooves galloped, and it was already afternoon when he reached the city, and Li Miao walked home leisurely. Seeing Liu Sheng coming on horseback, he hurriedly greeted him as if he was pondering: "Liu Sheng hasn't seen you for a long time."
"Brother Li, what are you going to do?" As soon as the reins were pulled, the horses slowly stopped, and Liu Sheng dismounted.
Li Miao looked Liu Sheng up and down, thoughtful: "I just finished handling some official business, and now I have back pain, so I naturally go home." What about you? What are you thinking about on horseback? How I feel like you're sad. Did you know that it is dangerous to be distracted on horseback?"
"Let Brother Li see it, I was just thinking about some things just now." Liu Sheng saw Li Miao's concerned look, his heart warmed, and he prevaricated casually.
Li Miao nodded after listening, looked at Liu Sheng and instructed: "Be careful not to be distracted when riding a horse in the future, otherwise it will be easy to have an accident."
"Brother Li, I will pay attention to it in the future." Liu Sheng smiled slightly, indicating that he understood.
At this time, Li Miao, thinking of a rumor during this time, suddenly gossiped: "Do you know that there is a rumor in the court, which is very interesting."
"What kind of rumor is it?" Liu Sheng saw Li Miao, his face was mysterious, and he asked.
Li Miao looked at Liu Sheng meaningfully and pointed forward: "It's not good to stand on the street all the time." I think it's still us, and it's good to talk while walking."
"It's good ......". Liu Sheng looked at the crowd of people coming and going on the street. led the horse and followed Li Miao and walked forward.
Li Miao asked Liu Sheng tentatively while walking: "Poor and sour, I have heard gossip from the court, and it is rumored that Wang Kexin and Sima Zhao are getting along."
"How can the affairs of our juniors be spread to the court." Liu Sheng was slightly shocked when he heard this, and a trace of sourness permeated his heart. Cast his eyes into the distance, not daring to look at Li Miao. hurriedly pretended to be indifferent, and squeezed out a smile.
Li Miao didn't seem to notice Liu Sheng's abnormality, but he fell into contemplation, thinking about the situation in the court: "Because now Sima Zhao and Wang An have joined forces, and the household and officials are linked. Naturally, the civil and military officials looked sideways. This rumor, naturally, spread to the court."
"No wonder Kexin and Sister Rong have been in Shantang during this time." Liu Sheng heard Li Miao's words and muttered to himself. I didn't expect these civil and military officials to also have a gossip side.
Li Miao's ears were sharp, and he looked at Liu Sheng with a smile: "What are you talking about?" Are you still in a crush, listen to my advice. With your current status, there is no grass at the end of the world, so let's look at it."
"It's easier said than done. There are some things, the more I tell myself to let go, but the more I can't let go. Brother Li, you are from the past, you should understand my mood at this time." After Liu Sheng listened to Li Miao's words, his heart became melancholy. Lovers also have the right to break up, but unrequited love and secret love. But it's just a humble practice that belongs to the heart.
Li Miao looked at Liu Sheng, who had a melancholy face, and shook his head slightly. He couldn't help with this, and there was nowhere to help: "I can understand your current mood. But you have to know that there is nothing but love in life. There is also career, responsibility and responsibility".
"Brother Li, what is pain?" Liu Sheng put away his melancholy mood and looked at Li Miao. The pain is what it is and why it is just. It will spread quietly in the heart.
Li Miao was slightly stunned, and repeatedly confirmed that Liu Sheng was normal: "Pain? The reason why you can feel it now. It's because you haven't experienced something more painful."
"In the past, Brother Zhou and Daoist Mingyi often talked to me about this matter. They told me that it was painful. Only with more pain can the previous pain be solved. Therefore, those who are in pain will be more and more miserable." Liu Sheng recalled the past, in the village. A hint of warmth spreads in my heart.
Li Miao looked at Liu Sheng, nodded and shook his head: "What you said is right or wrong, I can't figure it out." The pain in my heart, why don't you let it go calmly".
"Down? Easier said than done." Liu Sheng shook his head, everyone in the world knows to put down two words. But most people will choose to cover up the pain of today and the past with the more pain of tomorrow. Because they all want to be addicted to the illusion of never giving up.
When Li Miao heard Liu Sheng say this, she seemed to remember a scene she had encountered in the past. He also had one thing at the beginning, and he felt very tormented, and he thought that he couldn't let go: "One day, you are in the temple, and the Sanskrit sound in your ears is everywhere. Looking back on the past, will you still be unable to let go? “。
"Buddhism has been prosperous until now, and there is naturally a reason for it. But how can you put it down, it's so simple." Liu Sheng shook his head, although the scene depicted by Li Miao gave him a sense of relief. But this is not immersive after all, and there is always a lack of charm.
Li Miao shook his head and didn't want to say anything, he could only see this matter by himself. No one can help him, not even Wang Kexin. Because crush and unrequited love are both a journey of spiritual nirvana. Thinking of this, he quickly changed the topic: "Why didn't I see Jia Fu, haven't you always been inseparable?"
"Today I asked him to summon the merchants in Luoyang City. In the evening, I plan to consult with them about something." Liu Sheng saw that Li Miao diverted the topic, and he didn't dwell too much, so he hurriedly followed his words.
Li Miao was puzzled, Jia Fu's little fat man, summoned Shang Jia: "As long as he can, gather Shang Jia." Poor sour, you shouldn't be laughing."
"Brother Li, don't underestimate people, now you are blessed. Among the merchants of Luoyang, it has a great reputation." Liu Sheng saw Li Miao, who didn't believe it, explained, and strongly supported Jia Fu.
Li Miao shook his head and expressed disbelief, as far as Jia Fu is still prestigious: "He is very famous, I agree." But among these businessmen, how much appeal can he have."
"Brother Li, what is going on, after tonight, isn't everything understood." Liu Sheng saw that Li Miao still didn't believe it, and shook his head helplessly, this prejudice really kills people.
Li Miao saw what Liu Sheng said, and his tone was very firm. Could it be that Jia Fu's fat man can really appeal to him? I don't seem to have ever cared about the situation of those businessmen, and I should pay more attention to them in the future: "Anyway, I don't believe it, what are you doing when you gather those businessmen." They are good for nothing but a few stinky money. As far as I know, you're not short of money."
"Help Jia Fu and follow the way of the merchant to destroy the country". Liu Sheng looked at Li Miao in a firm tone and slowly spit out these words.
Li Miao thought about it again and again in his heart: "Merchants destroy the country? What a big breath. Throughout the ages, even Lu Buwei did not dare to say such things. Jia Fu didn't pour cold water on me, he still lacked a little heat."
"Don't rush to conclusions, I'll tell you one thing first......." Liu Sheng told Li Miao everything he talked about last night.
Li Miao suddenly realized after hearing this, looked at Liu Sheng and gave a thumbs up: "I can't see the poor acid, you really have some goods in your stomach."
"Brother Li has a good reputation, and he is ashamed." Liu Sheng hurriedly became modest, this matter is really nothing from the perspective of a modern person.
After thinking about it, Li Miao was still reminiscing about what Liu Sheng said in the palace just now: "It seems that I'm fine, and I have to pay more attention to these businessmen." There is an old saying that the ruler is long and the inch is short. Every thing that exists has a reason to exist."
"Brother Li, I need to go back early and make some preparations. I hope this matter will be smooth sailing." Liu Sheng looked at Li Miao and said goodbye directly, if he didn't go back to prepare for some things, he was afraid that it would be too late.
Li Miao made a gesture to Liu Sheng, pleased: "This matter is important, I won't force you to stay, I wish you a smooth plan."
"Farewell". Liu Sheng saluted Li Miao, turned over his horse, and ran to the mansion.
