The commander-in-chief is in the Yanwu Hall on the west side of Weiyang Palace, out of the Yanwu Palace, a team of guards and soldiers followed, the leader is a burly man in his early forties, with a plateau red face, a dragon collar flower, and two gold stars on the gold backing epaulettes, which is a major general with a title.

"Official, where are you going?"

The general is Gesang Dunzhu, who has worked with the Rakshasa people under the jurisdiction of the Beiting Dadu Protectorate, and has done it with the Dzungar people under the jurisdiction of the Western Regions Dadu Protectorate, although he has made military achievements, but he, the general of Yeluzi who was born in the emperor's personal guard, is not as good as the general who was born in the scientific class. And the future of a great general is counting on his son, who is studying at the Whampoa Army Academy, to fight.

Li Shi said casually: "Daguan Garden, take fewer people, just go and relax......"

Gesang Dunzhu went to arrange manpower, and Li Shi asked the attendant again: "Who is free for the girls?" ”

The waiter responded: "Guifei Niangniang went to Hangzhou to preside over the Jiangnan Keju League, Concubine Hui, Concubine Jing and Concubine Ning also went, and several other Niangniang ......"

Li Shi snorted, signaling that he knew, Concubine Xian led a women's society to promote women's education in a country, and now she is inspecting Jiangxi. Concubine Shu returned to Nanjing to attend An Wei's funeral, Concubine Xiao was free, but as she grew older, she lived a pure-hearted life as a monk, and she didn't want to go to the lively places such as Daguan Garden.

Thanks to God's gift, Xiao Fumei also pays special attention to the health of the royal family, in addition to the death of his four sons in the early years, he and his wife and children have been free of illness for more than 20 years. The imperial concubines are busy with their own careers, and they are not entangled in trivial things, and their families are harmonious and beautiful. Even though Li Shi has hidden traces of romance outside, he has always been very sober and did not let the back garden continue to grow, and the imperial concubines also turned a blind eye, and even felt sorry for him, feeling that sometimes he was neglected.

The husband and wife have their own thoughts, and Sanniang went out with the imperial concubine. Thinking that he could spend all day drinking alone, Li Xian's originally suppressed mood was a little high, and he was finally able to enjoy the fun of the emperor's private visit.

After changing clothes, three carriages drove out of the west gate of Weiyang Palace, made a circle, and headed for the east of the capital. There were no cavalry, the carriages were not marked, and they were submerged in the bustling streets of the capital. It seems that it is a trip to the family of a rich and noble eunuch.

At first glance, Li Shi didn't seem to have learned the lessons of the Xi'an assassination case at all, and actually played a private interview with Weifu, but it was Xi'an. In China, especially in Tokyo and Nanjing, Li Shi only made a public appearance with a few entourages, and there was no big security problem, the trouble was just to be surrounded by ordinary people, and there was no pleasure at all.

In the two capitals and even the hinterland of the two souths, the public security control on the surface and the secret spy investigation in the secret have been accumulated for many years, coupled with the national peace and security, the north and the south stop fighting. Li Shi's activity space can finally be close to that of the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and he can go down to the people relatively calmly. The main reason is that most of the current internal affairs are handled by the prime minister, and the law is gradually becoming independent, and the image of Li Shi, the emperor, in the minds of the people is getting closer and closer to a statue of a god, and the responsibilities and grievances that fall on him are becoming less and less, and of course it is getting safer and safer.

But this is also the source of Li Xian's depression. Intellectually, delegating power is an inevitable choice, and the fact that he, the emperor, can be idle shows that his hard work in the past 20 years has not been in vain, and the one-country mechanism is gradually taking shape, operating according to the model he expects.

But in terms of feelings, he, the Emperor of the Holy Dao, is in charge of the affairs, and he bears less and less responsibility. The ability of "wise and divine martial arts" is gradually useless, which is very unpleasant.

He was in charge of many things, including military affairs, diplomacy, colonization, and legislation. But the north and the south are temporarily at peace, and the plot to erode the north is still being handled by Chen Wance. After the Britons conceded defeat, a new situation was also brewing in Europa, and relations between East and West eased. Colonial Tianzhu was again operated by the Western Company and the Western Metropolitan Protectorate. Even the legal power that I was most worried about before. Because the two houses have become more and more active after the restructuring, not only have they done what he wanted, but what he did not think about was also swept into the game chess game by the two houses, the political affairs hall and public opinion. …,

Even in the battle to conquer the Western Regions, because he sorted out the staff system in the General Headquarters, and Fan Jin was in the battle, after he gave the goals, resources and key points, there was no place to intervene. Even if the Rakshasa people intervene sideways, the staff officers of the General Headquarters have already formulated a countermeasure, and after most of the Western Regions Protector Wu Ya has suffered this loss, he will definitely learn a lesson and adjust his deployment, and he doesn't need to talk more.

To sum up, Li Shi is very idle now, and whether it is Prime Minister Xue Xue or Military Affairs Minister Fan Jin, they still want to push him to be more idle, Fan Jin wants him, the emperor, to go to the Grand View Garden to have fun, can Li Xi not be depressed?

This change has been revealed after Li Xi returned from the northwest two years ago, and the Grand View Garden was created by his leisure. As the founding emperor, Li Shi certainly couldn't bear the loneliness. If it's not good to meddle in state affairs, then stir up the hearts of the people in the country.

Culture, sports, science and technology, and entertainment, these directions are the focus of his attention, helping Zhu Yuyou to promote library construction and women's education, and even opening up women's admission to the imperial examination, the first two years also caused a fierce debate in the country, and now the compromise reached is to open up the highly specialized subjects such as Ming Law, Ming Calculation, Baigong and Tongshi, while traditional subjects such as Jinshi, Erudition, and Jingyi remain unchanged.

This great progress was naturally regarded by the Confucianism and the Manchu Qing Dynasty as evidence of the further decline of the British and Chinese, but for the British and Chinese people, it is not too difficult to cross this psychological threshold, originally the British and Chinese women have been through weaving and other industries, are widely going to the society, and women's education after so many years of accumulation, has established many women's colleges. In particular, the Women's Teachers College has absorbed a large number of educated women, and with the help of them, the work of rolling out primary education in Anglo-Chinese secondary schools will go smoothly. These female masters naturally also have official status, and it is logical to open the imperial examination and promote women to enter other fields to show their strengths.

In addition to culture and education, Li Xi also paid special attention to the "sports career", helping Sanniang to run a large-scale national martial arts league, and the Keju sport is also attracting the attention of the Chinese people with a high degree of confrontation and organization, the Lingnan League and the Jiangnan League have been formed, and then organize the Huguang and Sichuan-Shaanxi Division, which is a national event. As for those small events, such as dragon boat races, they also cross the military and civilian fields and become another bright spot in the lives of people in the Jianghai area.

In the field of science and technology, Li Xian is particularly concerned, and in the past two years, he has also changed his thinking, and the policy of taking over basic science and engineering technology research with the purely national Tiandao Academy, the general supervisor and various manufacturing bureaus has now become conservative and closed. To this end, he reorganized the superintendent into the Imperial Patent Office, which was equivalent to a bidding committee, and the Imperial Court presided over the management through the Central Court. Just act as an intermediary, notary and co-ordinator. The Patent Office absorbs the needs of all sectors of society, publishes scientific research projects to the public, pays patent rewards, and entrusts the enforcement of the Patent Law to the courts.

The state funds are used to support the key engineering and technological research of the Basic Science Research and Manufacturing Bureau of the Tiandao Academy, and the Royal Patent Office relies on the funds of social organizations to promote practical technology research, and realize technology transactions and stimulate technology realization into the market through the patent law, so that Yinghua's scientific and technological undertakings have a three-dimensional level.

After the establishment of the Imperial Patent Office, it not only set off a boom in private research and technology. It also solves many problems for the state and the army. For example, the Navy has been working on light signaling technology, but it has been plagued by the lack of high-brightness dedicated lamps. It was obviously impossible for the Navy to study the lamps on its own, and this need was reported to the general supervisor or the manufacturing bureau, which was suppressed by a large number of other scientific tasks. The Navy itself went to the lamp workshop. It's a needle in a haystack.

Now, through the Royal Patent Office, we have invested together with industries that also have a demand for lamps, such as shipping and performances, saving money and effort, and there are many lighting companies and countless Seiko craftsmen participating in the competition, which has too many benefits. ..., the operation of the Royal Patent Office was quite successful, and in the second year, that is, the twenty-first year of the Holy Dao, more than 600 patents were finalized, and nearly one million taels of patent bounties were issued. This year's growth rate is even more amazing, with more than 500 patents in the first half of the year. These patents cover all walks of life, create a number of emerging industries, and also give birth to many wealthy people, and get patents, which not only means a bounty, but also a steady stream of patent licensing fees waiting.

Culture, sports, and scientific research are all important to state affairs. In terms of entertainment, there is a lot of selfishness in Li Shi.

Daguanyuan comes from his selfishness, Luo Shenniang is his forbidden belly, and Feitian Art Workshop has also been funded by him into a privately owned art workshop. In order to take care of this talented dancer, so that she can rely on her for the rest of her life, and at the same time satisfy his own pleasure needs, he once again funded the construction of this extensive entertainment venue in Tokyo.

The carriage drove out of the street. Entering a boulevard, in the distance, a magnificent stadium gradually came into view. If you look down from the air, the Grand View Garden is like two half-moons facing each other, and the big half-moon is faintly wrapped around the small half-moon. The Half Moon Center is a five-story pagoda-style high-rise building with cornices and walls. Red bricks and green tiles, three-storey small buildings stretch out from the left and right of the pagoda, and there are pavilions and corridors connected to each other. There are pines and cypresses downstairs, the pavilion corridor flowers and trees are flourishing, at this time the night is falling, red, purple, blue and blue lanterns are hung between the trees and the courtyard, it is really like Penglai Wonderland.

Getting closer again, the fairy aura was suddenly broken by the noisy voices. These two and a half moons of Grand View Garden are located in the north of Tokyo, by the Huangpu River, covering an area of three or four hectares, half a moon away, across a circle of square used for parking, and surrounded by countless inns and restaurants, at this time there are tens of thousands of people gathered.

The carriage did not stop at the big half moon, but passed through the guarded stone and brick path, came to the little half moon by the river, did not stop in the square, and went directly into the garage under the main building of the little half moon.

Daguanyuan is an "entertainment supermarket", just like Nanjing's Xiaojin Mingchi. Stage troupes from all over the world gather here to sell their singing, dancing skills and even lip service. Shaanxi's Qin dialect, Hebei's Zhili Bangzi, Shandong's Allegro, the north and south of the river, inside and outside the Guan, and even overseas performances of various customs can be seen.

The team of most of the half moon is more popular, and there are even juggling and animal taming shows, the small half moon takes the high-end route, occupying the third floor of the main building of the small half moon The Feitian Art Workshop focuses on the ancient music of the Tang and Song dynasties, which is no longer the most sought after place, the second floor of the Sifang Dance Club and the first floor of the Delin Society are the new stars, the former has dancers from Dongying, the Western Regions and Tianzhu, Persia and other countries, and the latter has gathered the best storytellers in Jiangnan and Lingnan, commenting on current affairs and making fun of them.

Only a few people know that the Sifang Dance Club and the Delin Society are also the industries of the Feitian Art Workshop, and the Luo family of the Feitian Art Workshop is the owner of the Banyue Main Building, and even fewer people know that the emperor is the first proprietor of the Feitian Art Workshop and the Grand View Garden. The permanent manager of the Flying Arts Workshop was of course one of the very few, and he had been waiting for a long time in this special passage in the building. Before the emperor arrived, the plainclothes guards had secretly informed him that even if it was a private visit by Weifu, there would be no shortage of necessary homework.

"The Luo family was recruited to Hangzhou by the concubine Niangniang to help the Keju League, Your Majesty ......"

The steward was very frightened, Li Xian heard this, and he also screamed in his heart, Sanniang won't embarrass Luo Shenniang, right? Think again. Over the years, Sanniang has become more and more tolerant, and she didn't know that Luo Shenniang's relationship with herself should not have anything wrong, so she settled down.

Luo Shenniang was not there, Li wantonly was in a hurry, and was about to leave, when the music of the Hu Flute came from the second floor. Melodious and melodious, my heart moved, "I'll go to the second floor to have a look, everything is as usual." Don't make a fuss. ”

Gesang Dunzhu took two guards and pro-military officials, plus one attendant, and the five masters and servants went down to the second floor and sat down in the reserved VIP seats. At this time, on the stage on the second floor, the light and shadow were misty, and a slender and beautiful shadow dressed as a bearded girl in the Western Regions swayed at the willow waist, stretching and dancing in the cheerful music, and hundreds of audiences in the audience held their breath and were fascinated. ..., even though the dancing girl was veiled. It can be seen that the starry eyes are circulating, as well as the soft body dancing, makes Li Xian frown, this woman is so familiar, very similar to the Ma family girl I saw in Xi'an two years ago......

"Good! Good! Reward! ”

A shout broke the silence, causing everyone to look at them angrily, and Li Xian looked over in displeasure. The song is noisy before the dance is finished, which is really a bad scenery.

"Miaoren, let's list it today, waiting for the master to love! Lift the veil, let the master take a look first! ”

The man didn't realize that he had swept everyone's interest, and he even spat out wild words, which made the audience even more stunned, this, where did this guy jump out of? When the Grand View Garden is Yihong Mansion? People are actors. Not a prostitute!

In this era, even in Yinghua, the status of the drama is still not high, but it is not comparable to the north. The drama will also make bids in private to attract benefactors, but after all, it is something you and I want. And the drama of this Grand View Garden is the top person in a country. It is not an object that can be insulted casually.

Probably because he felt that this person was too out of tune, the dancing girl on the stage was unmoved, and continued to dance dutifully, and the steward of the Quartet Dance Club did not respond strongly, and hoped that this person could know something.

The man didn't get a response, as if he was annoyed, urging the people around him to do something, the people around him explained in a low voice for a while, to no avail, and then turned his head to look around, as if he wanted to find someone, but he couldn't find it, so he had no choice but to raise his hand and throw a piece of something on the stage.

The dancing girl spun gracefully and dodged the thing, which smashed into the crotch of the stage.

"Ten taels of gold, take off the veil for a wonderful person, it's enough!"

The man got up and showed his figure, not very old, with a melon skin hat, a knurled silk shirt, a string of jade pendants hanging from his waist, jingling, a string of golden chains hanging on his chest, a fan in one hand, and the golden wrench fingers in his hand flashed so much that people were about to be dazzled.

As he spoke, he looked around with his head held high, as if waiting for a flood of exclamations and praises.

"Where did the Shanxi Yankees come from! Dare to be powerful under our British rule!? ”

The audience is finally excited, is this guy with a Shanxi accent looking for death!?

The steward finally came over, and politely bowed his hand: "This guest officer, this is a place of etiquette and music, and the people of the Quartet Dance Club are also performing arts, and they are not involved in prostitution, please respect yourself!" ”

The young man sneered disdainfully: "Selling your art or not selling your body!? It's just that the price is not enough, and this Grand View Garden has so many tricks, isn't it just to serve people like Ye and take money from the pockets of people like Ye? Don't pretend to be in front of your grandfather! Ten taels of gold is just a glance, and a hundred taels of gold can't be bought overnight!? The Oiran in Beijing City is only this price code overnight, hey...... Don't leave! ”

The dancing girl on the stage had stopped, and was about to retreat from the audience, but the young man did not stop.

Seeing that the steward was not moved by his words, and the dancing girl ignored him, the surrounding audience was even more angry, and the young man was a little panicked, and turned his head and shouted: "Shen Fuyang!" Where is this guy dead! Leave it here and don't care? ”

"Shen Fuyang" said, everyone secretly gasped, and the enthusiastic people who were going to come over to help the steward drive people out also stopped. I didn't expect this guy to have a relationship with Shen Fuyang, listening to this tone, Shen Fuyang seems to have to rely on him, this young man...... I can't afford to offend.

Shen Fuyang is not only an industrial tycoon in the country, but also has a close relationship with the Chaoshan consortium, and his cement, salt, infrastructure and other industries have fed hundreds of thousands of people and paid hundreds of thousands of taxes every year. The Shen family has a courtyard in the Western Courtyard of Guangdong and even the National Academy, and has a direct relationship with the emperor, even if it is Prime Minister Xue, he will not snub Shen Fuyang. Such a character, but this young man called casually, I don't know what the background is.

Showing the hole cards, seeing that everyone was timid, the steward frowned even more, and the young melon skin hat was proud, and hummed: "I didn't expect the name of the Shen Dong family to be so useful in this south, hehe...... Forget it, there are a lot of adults, so I won't make it too difficult for him. ..., he pointed at the dancing girl: "The master is not here to make trouble, or to have fun, this dancing girl, the master is going to decide!" The master made a bid, you look at it! ”

The steward and everyone around him laughed angrily, but Shen Fuyang's head was too loud, and they didn't know how to respond for a while.

Seeing that everyone was in a daze, the young man said irritably: "You people in the south really don't know how to serve people!" Add another hundred taels of gold, come, go and bring people directly, you don't like to procrastinate like this......"

The subordinates around him were also bold, and they pushed away the steward and others, and they were about to go on stage to pull the dancing girl.

Here, Li Xi and Gesang Dunzhu have been watching the play for a long time, and Gesang Dunzhu said: "It's not a trap, that person should be a son of a Jin merchant in the north, and it is estimated that he has a big background, and he can go straight to the head of the Internal Affairs Office." ”

Li Shi rolled up his sleeves and said, "It's good that it's not a trap, I ...... I want to play the role of a hero to save the beauty", I raised my hand and wanted to say, "Wait!" ”

"Wait!"

As soon as his hand was raised, a person stood up next to him, and a crisp cry rushed in front of him.

The net scarf covered the long hair, the plain cloth shirt wrapped the petite body, and the delicate and delicate facial features revealed a pitiful weakness, but the sparks in the eyes made her whole person full of a knife-like sharpness.

A female in men's clothes, this is not surprising, at the moment Yinghua's daughter is walking outside, some are cutting the original women's clothes, and some are wearing men's clothes directly, and the wind of the Tang Dynasty is blowing.

It was surprising that such a daughter's family actually came to the Grand View Garden to watch the women's music and dance......

When Li Xi saw this men's beauty appear, the corners of his eyes twitched, and his hand was quickly put down.
