Chapter 117: Thirteen Years of Remembrance of the Past
Thank you for the reward of Midnight Tanhua, Ayong thank you!
………………………………………………………………
The thirteenth year of Xiantong is a peculiar year, in this year, a lot of things happened in the Daming Palace in Chang'an City, and most of the historical events that were enough to change the fate of the Tang Dynasty began from this year.
So that people in later generations always like to use one word - eventful autumn, to describe this year.
Starting from the dethronement of Lu Yan, the former prime minister of the Political Affairs Hall at the beginning of the year, to the Shangyuan Festival, a thunder fell from the sky and shook the Xuanhui Yuan envoy Yang Gongqing and Wei Bo Yanei Han Jian incident, and then to Yang Xuanji, Yang Fugong's father and son murdered the six princes and were beheaded, and then to the Guozi Siye Wei Yinyu knocking incident, and then to the madness of Guo Shufei at the end of the year.
These major events and some small events are interspersed with them, and each of them is more or less related to a person, this person is Li Bao, the Shenwu Emperor who was later known as the founder of the super empire.
Emperor Shenwu, who has been debated by later historians, was only an eleven-year-old child that year. Scholars perceive a hint of conspiracy in those series of events.
Therefore, the focus of debate among scholars is whether the boy had a city that did not correspond to his age, or to put it bluntly, Emperor Shenwu was a conspirator since childhood.
For the controversy of later generations, for Li Bao, the prince of Chang'an City at the end of the thirteenth year of Xiantong, he would never feel such trouble.
After all, this teenager is not old enough to worry about new words. The tranquil and peaceful city of Chang'an is also immersed in a peaceful and joyful atmosphere that the New Year is approaching.
Li Bao is going to Zhang Yichao's house in Xuanyangfang recently, where it has been vacant since Zhang Yichao's death. Where is he going to hold an annual meeting of proprietors with the shareholders of Shanhe Society.
The Tang Dynasty had already implemented a policy of providing houses for officials in the capital free of charge, and the government would take back the houses of officials who left Beijing or transferred to other places.
The management of these houses was under the rule of the Xuanhui Courtyard in the palace, so Li Bao instructed Tian Xianyu, who was in charge of the Xuanhui Courtyard, to leave this mansion so that he could often rest temporarily after leaving the palace, and he also planned to use this place as the headquarters of the Shanhe Society.
This year's proprietor's meeting is very important, after all, it is the first proprietor's meeting, and Li Bao attaches great importance to it. This year, the performance of Shanhe Club is very good, and the turnover of the three stores is very good.
Among them, Meiyaya's performance is the most, with a net profit of 250,000 yuan, and although Qianjinlou opened three months late, its performance is not much worse than Meiyaya's, with a net profit of 210,000 yuan. The West Market Department Store has only been open for half a year, but it has also made a profit of 140,000 yuan.
With so much profit, Li Bao doesn't plan to pay out all the dividends, he only plans to pay one-third of the dividends, and the rest will develop new businesses. This is the main content of this year's proprietor's meeting, and he needs to obtain the consent of the shareholders.

Now that the "four nobles" in the Daming Palace have been prepared, after Yang Fuguang returned to Beijing from other towns, he met with Tian Xianyu, Han Wenyue and Ximen Jixuan and other eunuchs one by one, before he took up the privy envoy ministry.
However, Ximen Ji Xuan is now old and faint, and he wants to tell the old man that there is still a lot of competition for who will hold the position of Lieutenant Zuo of the Shence Army.
Li Bao didn't attach much importance to the struggle for power and profit between these eunuchs, as long as they didn't take the initiative to provoke themselves. However, Wu Yipin heard the rumors, and hinted to Li Bao several times that he intended to move his position.
Li Baodu excused himself, this wall grass can't let him do it in one step, otherwise there will be no place to pinch him in the future, and it will be difficult to do.
Zhou Rui and others are very comfortable in the Flying Dragon Army, and now they have the support of Wu Yipin, and they have subdued a group of arrogant soldiers who are above the top on weekdays.
Li Bao told them through Hu Sanbao that they should take this army into their hands as soon as possible, and he would be of great use in the future.
In addition, Li Bao also gave them a large amount of money for buying and training soldiers. And greeted Yang Siqi, the internal military weapon, and the weapons of the Flying Dragon Army were not allowed to be detained.
Now the only army with combat effectiveness in Chang'an City is the Shence Army and the Flying Dragon Army, but most of the soldiers in the Shence Army at this time are young people in Chang'an City.
This army has been corrupted and degenerate, and the Wyvern Army is similar, but the Wyvern Army is fortunately cavalry, and the number of others is small, so it is more convenient to train in this way.
Li Bao is not good at reorganizing the army, and he can't give much useful advice. Fortunately, Wu Anzheng is still in Chang'an City, Zhou Rui and others are his apprentices, and they have Wu Anzheng, an old soldier, presumably the army brought out should not be too bad.
Through Yang Siqi, Li Bao handed over the Zhuge Divine Crossbow production diagram in his memory to the old craftsman of the Ordnance Supervisor, and now he has made a prototype. Li Bao told Yang Siqi that this matter should be kept secret, and then asked Yang Siqi to secretly make a hundred first.
Immediately, after the hundred divine crossbows were made, they arranged for people to be transported out of the city, and they were all hidden in the first village in the west of the city.
Now the construction of the first village is in full swing, and Wang Daguan has lived up to expectations and successfully bought about 2,000 acres of land around. It didn't cost much, and Li Bao was very satisfied.
Li Bao originally wanted to build a small fortress somewhere, but he was afraid that it would be too public, so he gave up. Only a fence was built around the manor, and a militia team composed of displaced people was arranged to patrol day and night to strictly guard against evildoers.
Of course, there are many people with good deeds who want to go to trouble the first village, but as soon as they heard that it was the manor of Prince Ji in the palace, they immediately retreated.
Weiyangzi is now in a Taoist temple in Xicheng near Yanping Gate, which has no incense on weekdays. Where did Li Bao give 100 guan money, and promised the Guan Zhu to give him another 100 Guan money, so that he could transfer the Guan Zhu to Wei Yangzi.
Without saying a word, the master immediately gathered the big and small Taoist priests in the view, announced in public that he was going to go out to travel, and let Weiyangzi serve as the master.
After Weiyangzi took over as the master of the temple, he changed the name of the Taoist temple to the pure yang temple, and practiced medicine and medicine in the temple, which was very loved by the common people, so he took the opportunity to develop many believers.
Wei Yangzi manages affairs in Guanzhong during the day on weekdays, and at night he will go out of the city to teach those homeless teams kung fu in the first village, Li Bao plans to train a team that has always been capable, which can be modeled on the special forces of later generations, and can help him do something shady when necessary.
Today's Jin Luanwei is still a weak organization, Li Bao still has to put a lot of effort, Jin Luanwei's headquarters he plans to put in the first village first, and he is not afraid of disturbing him.
Wei Yangzi is very excited about such an arrangement, and he is also very accomplished that he can coach a team. In addition, Hu Sanbao also arranged a lot of eyeliner in the palace, but whenever there was a disturbance in the palace, Li Bao could know it as soon as possible.
There are also the affairs of the three merchant groups of Hekang, Qin, and Liu, which have already begun to be done, but the construction of Li Bao's first village has not yet been completed, and the sale of things like soap and fans must be slowed down first.
However, normal things like silk and porcelain have not stopped, and Li Bao has also contacted Zhang Huaishen of the Shazhou Guiyi Army, and promised that in his Shanhe Society, Zhang Yichao's shares will be directly transferred to him to take over, and let him arrange someone to come to Chang'an to serve as the proprietor.
In addition, since Concubine Guo Shu was sent to the cold palace because of madness, Li Yi was very sad, and then suffered a big blow, and her body was not as good as before.
Li Bao was very conflicted about Li Luo's feelings, he didn't have a deep relationship with this father before, and he once despised him.
But in the past year, Li Yi has been very fond of him, and has done a lot of things for him, and has also given him a lot of grace. Li Bao felt that people's hearts were flesh and blood, and in this era of indifference, he was also extremely touched by Li Yi's love.
Li Bao specially arranged for Weiyangzi to go to the palace to treat Li Luo, and Weiyangzi's expression told him the result. Li Bao was a little painful for a while. But this is fate, he can't reverse it, all he can do now is change his own future.
As for Guo Shufei's younger brother, Guo Jingshu is now much more honest, although many people have been exposing him again, but after all, he is still the protection of Wei Baoheng, the prime minister of the dynasty, and he can't defeat him now.
Li Bao has no opinion on this person, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to provoke himself, there is no need to rectify him, as long as Concubine Guo Shu dies, it is only a matter of time before he falls.
Now Guo Shufei has been poisoned, and the skin on her body has been scratched by her, but she still can't stop the itching on her body, Li Luo got a notice from the Imperial Medical Department that day, and went to see Guo Shufei in person, that is, in front of Li Luo, Guo Shufei scratched her beautiful face like mutton fat, and Li Luo fainted on the spot.
Li Ying heard that Li Bao had overthrown Concubine Guo Shu, and she also went to see this woman who had a great hatred for her.
After coming back, she also woke up several times in the middle of the night and cried bitterly, she complained in front of Li Bao, saying that Li Bao should kill her directly. Although this is revenge, it is too cruel.
Li Bao felt that this poisonous woman should suffer these crimes, and for the sake of all the poisoned concubines in the Daming Palace, it was also appropriate to be angry. But there is no need to argue with Li Ying, after all, she is a good girl with a kind heart.
In order to be able to move forward smoothly, Li Bao has done so many vicious things with a hard heart, with Li Ying's kindness and innocence, at least he can give Li Bao a reason to convince himself, his ruthlessness at this time is just to protect more innocence and kindness from poison and harm.
Now Li Bao is facing the thirteen years of Xiantong that is about to pass, and he has a trace of nostalgia in his heart. Although there are many people suffering in different places in this age, at this time, he is very safe, and the relatives around him are also smooth, and he has nothing else to ask for.
But the wheels of history and time are not controlled by his will, and they still move forward with the momentum of destroying everything.
Facing the sky at the end of the thirteenth year of Xiantong, Li Bao suddenly had a feeling of Wenqing in his heart, and he said lightly: "This year is about to pass, I miss it very much!" ”
