Chapter 45 The Winter Nights in Chang'an City are Long

"You go," the sage waved his hand, "Ah Zhen will stay, Feng Daban will send the Yuandong Hou out of the palace for a certain person."

Dugu Xinci arched his hand and gave a gift, and when he saw King Qi Yanfan, he said with a smile: "King Qi, can you send the reward before noon tomorrow?" In fact, it doesn't matter if you don't send it, hehe"

Qi Wang Yanfan looked at Dugu Xinci's smiling face, and couldn't help but feel a chill rise in his heart.

This is a person who does not follow the rules, but he is also a person who is the most disciplined, a little around, just because Dugu Xinci is a person who abides by the rules, everything he does is documented, and everything is on the edge of the law, otherwise it is not easy to pass the test in Hanyuan Hall today, so in the eyes of people who often break the rules, this is an unruly person.

Dugu Xinci no longer paid attention to everyone, and left with Feng Yuanyi, the general of the left prison guard of the Gongli Jingmen of Qi State.

When the day is approaching, the Daming Palace is full of lanterns, although it is the winter solstice, it does not seem so deserted.

From time to time, patrol guards passed by, and when they saw that it was these two, they did not check.

Neither of them was interested in talking, but it was also boring to always rush silently, so Feng Yuanyi laughed dryly and said: "Far Eastern Hou is so majestic today."

"A certain grandson has been pretending to be a grandson for so long, how can he be majestic for a while, and the majesty of the Duke of Qi is a lifetime"

"Pretending to be a grandson? Hmm, the Far East Hou is really... It's really..."Feng Yuanyi searched hard for words to describe this son.

"Demons?" Dugu Xinci found a suitable word for him.

"Demons? That's right, the Marquis of Ru Far East is a demon," Feng Yuanyi smiled bitterly.

"You should also add, demon, don't you show your original form soon?"

"Hehe, the Hou of the Far East is so interested"

"I'm not interested, should I leave crying?" Dugu Xinci disdainfully, "Old Feng, you wonder what kind of drama is being played in the pavilion?" ”

"Drama? What drama? ”

"Ah, the drama, guess it, will there be a drama of Song Xianggong's resignation at this moment, the saint will not allow it, Song Xianggong will resign again, and the saint will still not allow it?"

"Rudang court is a pear orchard? Still a joke? ”

"Life is like a play, you still need acting skills, and you haven't reached home yet."

"Your acting skills have also been perfected"

"Hehe, you can see it? IQ has improved a lot, huh? ”

"Far Eastern Hou, Hugh has to insult so-and-so"

"Look, have a tone with that Song Xianggong"

"Hugh Na is compared to that Song with a black face"

"Hehe, when he peeled off Song Xianggong's face, was Lao Feng relieved?"

"Old Feng? Liaoyang County Wangfu tutor is so unbearable? ”

"That's how affectionate it is, a certain said Lao Feng, a certain need to ask for advice."

"Is there anything else that Far East Hou doesn't understand?"

"The world is impermanent, I don't know how to go to the sea, I want to ask for advice, Lijingmen has been the enemy of the world for many years, how do you relieve the pressure?"

Lijingmen was originally a saint to fight against the blood brake, and it was not dismantled after the success, and everything he did was selfish, and the means were fierce, and the scholars and the people were afraid of it like a tiger, and there was a situation of being an enemy of the world.

"I think Far Eastern Hou will taste it soon," Feng Yuanyi sneered.

"Isn't that a certain kind of same-heartedness?"

"Bah, you pity yourself, if you are an enemy of the world, you are an enemy of the world, and you are an enemy of the world? That's self-inflicted."

"Hey, don't slap people in the face, but today's matter still needs to be managed by Chief Xie Feng, if there is no Li Jingmen around, I am afraid that I will not be able to get out easily in Hanyuan Palace."

"When the Dugu Marquis has self-knowledge? Rare. It's just that Lijingmen's actions are sacred oracles, not some original intention."

"Well, I know, but the one who admires Qi Guogong the most is here, and he doesn't want to repay his kindness, but he is disgusted."

"Isn't it the same with the Hou of the Far East?"

"In this way, a certain is inversely similar to the chief manager"

"Who is near you? If you owe a favor, you will receive something in return. ”

"Hey, so close, how can you talk about the word return? Tell me if you have something to do."

Feng Yuanyi had the heart to ignore this annoying boy, but thinking about the current shortage of funds in Lijingmen, he had to swallow his anger, "You extorted more than 10,000 gold from Lijingmen a few days ago, return some first."

"Hey, the water that was spilled and the Kaiyuan Tongbao that was spent, how can there be a gift to take it back? Besides, the 10,000 gold has been lost by a certain flower."

"Done it all? It's only been a month? ”

"Exactly, you don't know, how dilapidated the Rimchuan industry you gave, if you want to live in it, you have to repair it on a large scale, it costs a lot, and a certain is forced to sell 10,000 acres of barren mountains by Jingzhao Mansion, and a certain wants to recycle the ancestral property of Huashi, and the Liaoyang County Mansion also needs a lot of expenses, so a large family wants to raise, the county king is all pushed and so, and this immature arm is almost unbearable."

Feng Yuanyi was almost stunned by the shamelessness of this tired boy, and he returned a large family, so there were only fourteen or fifteen people, right? Still immature arms? Demon Wolf Celestial Star is still immature? Aren't the magicians of the world ignorant and ignorant?

"If you don't do anything, didn't you receive two thousand gold from the king of Qi today? Divide it in half," Feng Yuan said with a smile.

"Yes" Dugu Xinci replied very happily, Feng Yuan choked one by one, he was joking, who would dare to snatch food from the hands of this unwielding iron demon wolf? But he happily agreed, without the slightest hesitation.

"Really?" Feng Yuanyi was suspicious.

"It's more real than real gold, but you need to help someone to ask for an account," Dugu Xinci said indifferently.

"King Qi is not bad for the two thousand gold" Feng Yuanyi is not afraid of King Qi's debts, not to mention that King Qi's mansion is rich, today's transaction is reached in front of the saints and the prime ministers, even if King Qi smashes the pot and sells iron, he has no shame to repay the debt.

"That's good, let you pick up a bargain"

"Tell me, what's the intention?" Feng Yuan sighed, afraid that the price of this thousand gold would be more than a thousand gold.

"I don't have any intentions, just to thank Li Jingmen for his help."

"You better say what you want, otherwise you won't be at ease."

"Look, are you still worried about sending you away for nothing? Must say the request? ”

"Say, as long as so-and-so can do his best"

"That's it."

"Let's talk about it" Feng Yuanyi is considered to have a snack, this is a requirement, you can bargain, and strive to earn this thousand gold at the lowest price.

"Hey, I'm really convinced, the dignified Lijingmen is so embarrassed for a thousand gold"

"Is a thousand gold less? Lijingmen's monthly fortune is only that."

"Lijingmen's income is so high? A certain has also been in office for more than a month, why haven't you seen Yu Lu? What is the geometry of a certain Lijing Doorman? ”

"You are a guest who has nothing to do, say your request, it's almost time to Danfeng Gate"

"Wu Yulu, you are squeezing so-and-so, okay, well, so-and-so will be said"

"Don't hide it, say it quickly" Feng Yuanyi's good temper is about to be worn out.

"Hey, don't worry, don't worry, this winter solstice day and night specialty, you can talk for a long time, hey, really don't worry, just say it" Dugu Xinci couldn't resist the fierce gaze of the head of Lijingmen.

"Didn't you prepare a lot of saltpeter charcoal or something last time? How much was looted? ”

"Looted... Why is it so ugly, a large number of such materials are stored, and Lijingmen is almost empty"

"That's good, this thing can be sold for money?"

"What? How can such a militaristic heavy weapon be sold for money? "Feng Yuanyi is about to run away.

"Don't worry, don't worry, listen to someone slowly"

"If you don't give a reasonable explanation, you will come up with this Daming Palace today."

"Hehe, it costs a lot of money to store this or other military resources in Lijingmen, right? This gunpowder is still in trial production, so how to prepare it practically also costs money, right? This is a massive amount of Kaiyuan Tongbao. ”

"Lijingmen's funds come from the inner treasury, and if you want to pick some funds from Princess Jingshan, I'm afraid it's difficult to go to the sky, right? A certain Zhiru has been throttling, but it is still a drop in the bucket, why don't you want to open source? ”

"Don't say that Lijingmen doesn't have any secret business or anything, but it's also a small fight, right?"

"This gunpowder is a battlefield weapon, but it can also be used for civilian use, don't you believe it?"

"This is what a certain and you are talking about, a certain and your daughter, count as a certain share, how about a certain partnership to make a transaction?"

"This gunpowder can crack the rocks, is this useful? How do you say it is practical? Isn't there a barren mountain of 10,000 acres? Thou shalt send someone to Rim Chuan tomorrow, and let you see how you can use gunpowder to make money."

"And now the power of the gunpowder in Lijingmen is still young, how to use it on the battlefield is far away, but it can be used elsewhere first? What else? ”

"Hehe, has Qi Guogong seen fireworks? Every year, there are cannonballs and fireworks on the first day and the Lantern Festival, and the people of the Warlock Guild will also cast spells to help the fun, but if gunpowder can also achieve that brilliant effect, do you say that there is a market? ”

"What market? The market is just someone who wants to buy? There are so many dignitaries and nobles in Chang'an, and not every family has a warlock, if they are allowed to set off fireworks with their own hands, is it rushing? ”

Feng Yuanyi fell into deep thought, he had also seen gunpowder experiments in the dark night, and that kind of scene was indeed comparable to the fireworks technique of an artist.

"Okay, I will believe in you, a thousand gold, tomorrow someone will be sent to the Dugu County Mansion to get it, and it will be counted as your shares?" Feng Yuanyi said generously

"Ichisei? You are really black-hearted, aren't you afraid of a certain unsatisfactory heart? Thirty percent, if it doesn't work, it will be scattered in two" Dugu Xinci bargained

"It's good to be 30%, but it needs to be the net profit after deducting materials and labor"

"That's natural, you don't need to go to the county king's mansion, you can take Jin to Chunmingmen and you tomorrow, and you will send someone to escort the supplies to go to Gongchuan with you."

"That's fine, I'll go with you in person."

"Oh, you have to bring food money."

"Food? Missing you for a meal or two? ”

"Well, although Lijingmen is poor, Qi Guogong is still rich"

"What do you say?"

"When a certain didn't say, this has arrived at Danfeng Gate, open the door and let a certain out."

"Open the door, don't you know that the nineteen gates of Chang'an City will no longer be opened for the night retreat? Whoever opens it shall be punished with rebellion."

"It's so serious, how do you get out?"

"Jump off the tower"

The two of them went up to the city tower, of course, they couldn't let the dignified prince make a move to jump off the building, and Feng Yuanyi, the general of the left prison guard, ordered someone to use a hanging basket to put Dugu Xinci down the city tower.

"Qi Guogong, I have time to go to your mansion to watch the dance scene in clothes," Dugu Xinci, who was in the middle of the city wall, did not forget to shout.

"Do you believe that so-and-so will cut the rope of the hanging basket?" Feng Yuanyi was furious when he saw the strange eyes of the guards around him.

Dugu Xinci saw that the hanging basket was still two feet high from the ground, and he thought that he would fall if he fell, so he shut up.

The winter night of Chang'an City is very long, and it is also very cold, there are still traces of rain and snow a few days ago, but people come and go in front of Danfeng Gate, the road has dried up, and it is not muddy and difficult to walk.

There was a cold bright moon in the sky, and a team of Jinwuwei soldiers who had recently checked on the street, the captain of the team took a look, and saw that it was Dugu Xinci, the newly baked Far Eastern Marquis, and also knew that he was a guest of Lijingmen, and he was his own family, so he politely greeted him.

Dugu Xinci naturally and generously took out a few pieces of gold leaf, annoying everyone to escort them.

Captain Jin Wuwei didn't push it, generously took the gold leaf, and hugged him towards Chongrenfang.

Dugu Xinci arranged for Wen Wei and the two Langjun to go to the Chongrenfang Chang'an Club to celebrate the banquet, and they should rush to the meeting at this moment.

When he arrived at Chongrenfang, Captain Jin Wuwei called to open the door of the workshop and let Dugu Xinci enter alone.

Dugu Xinci and the soldiers of Jin Wuwei said goodbye, Shi Shiran walked along the cross street, and the two Wuhou carried lanterns to lead the way.

Chongrenfang is still brightly lit at the moment, people come and go, there are 25 Jinjuan houses from all over the country in the fang, there are already many vassal countries stationed, and the private houses of Fangshi restaurants are feasting and drinking at the moment.

The driving degree is the new Yan Tang vassal country, its concert courtyard is in the northwest corner of Chongrenfang, and the Chang'an Club is located on the edge of the driving degree mei entering the courtyard, which is a four-way mansion, the courtyard door is open, and there is laughter and laughter inside.

Wen Wei and the two Langjun are in the main hall of the first entry with many fellow scholars throwing pots for play, in the hall Luohan bed lying high on an old man, satin black robe, black hair combed without any mess, and five huge jasper wrenches in his hands, highlighting the wealth of this person. The big bear and the dog also squatted and chewed on the plate.

"Gu Weng can be fair, this game is a certain win, and you need to punish Zu Yonglangjun's wine" Wei Erlang Wei Bin shouted.

On the opposite side are several leaders in today's Jinshi, Zu Yong, Du Juan, Gao Shi, Zhang Yi, Wei Erlang, Wen Yu Wang's brothers, two groups of eight people are bidding, and there are more than ten Jinshi watching the battle.

I didn't see the two sons of the princes, Yang Qiu, the little sword god of the Sword God Mansion, was impressive, and he was also smiling at the moment.

Zu Yong and the four of them raised their glasses and drank them all, which was very bold, and everyone applauded.

The house had not yet noticed the arrival of Dugu Xinci, but the old man on the Luohan bed got up with a bone, ran outside the hall, and when he saw Dugu Xinci, he immediately prostrated on the ground, saying "Master, I want to kill the old slave"

"Get up, it's not bad, this equipment makes people's eyes hot when they look at it" Dugu Xinci smiled.

"The old slave has not all the gifts from the master," Gudra, the butler of the demon wolf, hurriedly ripped off a few jasper wrenches and offered them.

Everyone in the house also saw the arrival of Dugu Xinci, and they were all silent and dumbfounded.

This Gudra is the new person of Chongrenfang, Chang'an Club is one of the best luxury places in the square, there are all kinds of novel entertainment plays, mahjong pai gow, cockfighting lackeys, especially mahjong, which is so that many wealthy nobles flock to it.

Everyone knows that this person is the teacher of the driving of the prince, and he is also good friends with Duan Yun, the eleventh lang of the Baoguo Mansion, and even this club also has Duanfu shares, Gudra is also polite on weekdays, but he is proficient in Yantang people's feelings, Chang'an Club is like cooking oil on fire, Gudra is also a guest in the palace of the princes and ministers, although the Jinshi are not afraid, but still feel that this person is extraordinary.

At this moment, it is really like a slave seeing his master, and the respect for Dugu Xinci comes out of his bones.

I was relieved to think about it again, Dugu Xinci, the heir of the king of Liaoyang County, the new Marquis of the Far East, the third in the new branch A list, a few hours ago in Hanyuan Hall bravely fought the ministers, and won the battle, the saint personally sealed the Dugu family with a double halberd, that is not an ordinary person!

"How did you come so late?" Wei Erlang complained loudly.

"The punishment should be punished, everyone forgive me" Dugu Xincijin was in the main hall, bowing in a circle, wearing a jasper wrench that Gudra had just presented.

The new science and technology jinshi is Yan Tang Junjie, who is one in a million, and when he woke up, he immediately coaxed him to be punished for drinking.

Dugu Xinci smiled bitterly, today in the Lin De Hall is also a circle toast, and it is repeated at this moment, fortunately, it is all wine, if you burn the knife, you are afraid that you will be drunk and fall asleep.

None of the more than 20 new science and technology scholars let go, and Dugu Xinci felt a little unbearable under more than 20 glasses of wine.

Gudra hurriedly brought warm sugar water, Dugu Xinci looked at the table, there were actually several plates of cherries, all the salt, sugar and cheese on the side, all cold food, Dugu Xinci frowned, Gudra hurriedly ordered someone to bring hot soup.

"Everyone, go on, first fill your belly, today is still a little early, and now you are still with an empty stomach to gallop a horse" Dugu smiled and let Zhu Jinshi continue to play.

"The imperial banquet of the Lin De Hall actually didn't fill your stomach?" Wei Erlang didn't believe it.

"How can a jade plate of delicacies be worth a bowl of chicken noodle soup," Dugu Xinci concentrated on dealing with the bowl of clear soup and chicken noodles in front of him.

Everyone laughed heartily when they saw the new Far Eastern Marquis eating noodles with a snort, and the purple robe prince of Liaoyang County, the heir of the king of Liaoyang County, the new upstart of the Far Eastern Demon Wolf Chang'an, at this moment is the true temperament.

Dugu Xinci also felt that it was far less bright than the spacious lobby of the Huiqing Pavilion of the Linde Palace, and the cold winter night in Chang'an City was a little warmer.

The winter night in Chang'an City is long, why not roar and walk slowly
