Chapter 25 The idler soaks in the hot springs

"Your Majesty, when the new establishment is today, the people live and work in peace and contentment, it is really a good time for development, and it is not suitable to build a large number of buildings, and the concubine has heard Sister Mengli say that his husband often says a sentence: making a lot of money in a muffled voice is the royal way. The concubine pleaded with His Majesty Xià ......" Before Empress Changsun finished speaking, Li Er waved his hand anxiously, and the eldest grandson, who knew Li Er's temper well, knew that he was already very angry now, so he also kept silent and no longer spoke.

"Wei Zheng persuaded me, Fang Xuanling persuaded me, Du Ruhui, who withdrew from the court, persuaded me, and now even my wife has to come to dissuade me, Guanyin, tell me how this makes me deal with myself?" Li Er's brows were almost twisted into a pimple, and he said in a disappointed tone: "The construction of Luoyang Palace, I have also been carefully considered, today's Luoyang, without me sitting in the town, the commercial development is as fast as the steam bus on Xuanwu Street, the world's transit station, a big name, plus the Changluo Railway, I have always felt that Luoyang will become the second Chang'an of my Tang Dynasty, and now the construction of the palace is for the benefit of future generations, but you look at what you persuade me!" Li Er's voice roared a little at the end.

Empress Eldest Sun silently listened to Li Er's temper, didn't say a word, just listened quietly, as Li Er's most intimate person, she knew what to do at this time.

"Wei Zheng, the old puppet, was ashamed to compare me to Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, saying that Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty built a lot of buildings, built the Great Wall, built palaces, built canals, worked hard and lost money, and finally led to the destruction of the Sui Dynasty, and Zhang Xuansu made me even more angry, saying that there are many hungry and cold people in the world, and not paying attention to thrift, which is equivalent to killing the people in the pit. We have made several private visits. The people they saw were living and working in peace. Life is rich, where is there so many hungry and cold people like he said?! Li Er seemed to be venting, and said angrily.

"The concubine knows His Majesty's intentions." Empress Changsun gently took Li Er's hand, "Although those courtiers used inappropriate words and said untrue, their original intentions were good, they were all for the people of my Tang Dynasty, and they were all for my Tang Dynasty to be eternal and prosperous." There are a large number of Your Majesty, and you must also be considerate of the difficulty of these courtiers. ”

Li Er snorted from his nose, but it was obviously much calmer than just now.

Just as the two were about to discuss something, a eunuch's voice suddenly came from outside the Lizheng Palace, "Your Majesty, Guiguzi Xu Yang has a letter of advice." ”

Hearing the sound of Bai Mei's play, Li Er's eyebrows were obviously a little more annoyed, and he said angrily: "Now even Guiguzi has come to scold me for being stupid?!" ”

"Qiyu Majesty, Guiguzi is here to support His Majesty to build the Luoyang Palace this time...... "......

April is coming to an end, and the fields are full of life. Everywhere is green, and the young shoots of the seedlings are thriving with the hope of harvest. There are few idlers in the farmland, and the hard-working farmers raise silkworms and go to the fields, and they are busy.

However, the evil landlord class began to run out to enjoy it again, and Xu Yang took Liu Mengli to a newly built Lishan small building in Lishan to soak in hot springs today.

Li Er recently ignored the opposition of the court, and publicly declared in the "Tang News" that the imperial court was ready to spend a lot of money to build the Luoyang Palace in Luoyang, but it caused a shock in the world.

In the past, when the emperor built the palace, he would never give those captured strong men a son, they were all voluntary laborers, at most they were in charge of food and housing, but now Li Er's strategy is to make the people near Chang'an cheer, and the people who signed up to build the palace were overcrowded for a while.

Regardless of the ups and downs in the court, Xuyang's small life is still so leisurely, the carriage slowly drove up the winding mountain road, and the beautiful April scenery of Lishan was also displayed in front of the eyes of a carload of people.

Lishan, also known as "Lishan". It is a branch vein on the north side of the Qinling Mountains, stretches for more than 20 kilometers from east to west, and the mountain is like a horse in the distance, so it is called Lishan.

If you want to say that Lishan is the most famous, it must be the Huaqing Pond built by Tang Xuanzong, and Yang Guifei's jade glory in the mist has been talked about by later generations for thousands of years.

However, during Li Er's reign in the early Tang Dynasty, Lishan had not yet been developed into a palace villa on a large scale, and Li Er only built a "Tangquan Palace" next to the hot springs in the south of Lishan.

Some time ago, at an auction, Xu Yang earned a lot of money, and a pile of sand was exchanged for countless cattle, sheep, gold and silver, but he envied those officials in Chang'an.

Unlike the rigid Tang Dynasty people, in Xu Yang's dictionary, there is no habit of hiding money, and the money that is not spent is as useless as a waste gold and silver mine, so after getting more than 100,000 guan for no reason, Xu Yang specially applied to Li Er, requesting that he buy several small hot springs in the north of Lishan with 100,000 guan for his own rest.

100,000 yuan, just for a few hot springs, Li Er smiled very happily, it just so happened that he was going to build Luoyang Palace recently, although the treasury had sufficient money, but most of it could not be used lightly, plus he proposed to give each worker 30 yuan of sky-high labor fees, so his money was also tightly spent.

Now a fat sheep is sent to the door lightly, and it is really intolerable if Li Er does not accept it, so in a harmonious atmosphere where he is willing to fight and suffer, Xu Yang spent 100,000 yuan to wrap up the entire northern part of Lishan.

Today Xu Yang brought Liu Mengli to a hot spring in the north of Lishan, since the land was bought, Xu Yang is very active in the reconstruction of the entire mid-mountain, not only from Xujiazhuang to transfer people to build, but also from Luoyang to buy a group of slaves, together to speed up the construction of Lishan hot spring pool, to today is also half a month, today finally heard that the first hot spring pool has been built, which is impatient to take Liu Mengli out to enjoy the wild natural scenery.

"Husband, isn't it too expensive to buy a few hot springs in Lishan for 100,000 yuan?" Sitting in the carriage, looking at the scenery of the mountains in the distance, Liu Mengli also asked in a good mood.

"How can it be expensive, you must know that this is a national five-A scenic spot in the future, and now it only costs 100,000 yuan to pack this down, and the husband can make a lot of money this time." Xu Yang also said excitedly, after all, a scenic spot has become his private property, and he is a little excited to imagine it.

Although Liu Mengli couldn't understand what Xu Yang said, she was very happy to laugh with Xu Yang when she heard that she had earned it.

The mountain roads are paved with cement by the workers, so the carriage does not encounter the slightest inconvenience when climbing the mountain, as if it were driving on a straight road.

"Lord Jun, grandmother, we're here." The car slowly stopped, and Liu Qi sat on the wheel and said to the car.

Feeling that the car stopped, Xu Yang also pulled the curtain, stepped on a small guy and got out of the carriage, and then stroked Liu Mengli's hand and helped her out of the car.

At this time, it is the end of April, it is the time when the warm flowers are blooming, and the air seems to have a fragrance of earth, which makes people feel refreshed when they smell it.

Xu Yang sniffed the fresh air fiercely, if in the future life, this fresh smell has not been smelled for a long time, compared to the world full of haze, this is simply a paradise.

The birds of the empty mountains and the green eyes are green, even Xu Yang was attracted by this beautiful natural scenery, his eyes widened, and he wanted to take this qiē into his eyes, which was not worth the trip.

"Lord Jun, the hot spring pool is in front, and the small one will show you the way." A small servant walked up and said respectfully.

"Good! ~" As soon as Xu Yang clapped his hands, he took Liu Mengli and followed the little guy towards a delicate building not far away.

Unlike the tourist attractions of later generations, there are no heads, no back heads, and some are all natural beauty, and the little guy soon brought Xu Yang to a building, Feige Liudan, red and black tiles, typical Tang style buildings.

Walking inside, I heard the little guy's respectful voice, "Qiyu County Lord, all the hot springs here are surrounded according to the instructions of the County Lord, outsiders can't see the inside at all, the only entrance and exit is this house, which is very suitable for the County Lord to soak in the hot springs, the small one is waiting outside here, and the County Lord has something to order." ”

This little guy is sensible, looking at Liu Mengli beside him, Xu Yang shook his hand, and a piece of silver flew into the little guy's hand...... (To be continued......)
