429 Borrowing flowers to worship the Buddha
"Hehe, a few princesses are early, the distinguished guests are coming, there is a long way to go, forgive the sins" As soon as Liu Yuan came out, he hurriedly smiled and said to the three princesses.
This time, a total of three princesses came, Princess Li Lizhi of Changle, Princess Li Jing of Qinghe, and Queen Changsun adopted, Princess Yuzhang, who was more loving than she was born, are all heavyweight princesses.
The words are not believed, so that several princesses have not come to the drunken fairy building until their necks have grown, and they have come to the door after the most lush, and the main owner is still sleeping lazily, even the clay man also has three points, not to mention the princess who is high up? Liu Yuan had no choice but to lose his smile.
"Early? General Liu is still really leisurely, it's noon now, and he said that it's early, the shelf is not small, and the three of us don't please move you. As soon as Liu Yuan's words fell, Li Jing, the princess of Qinghe, was immediately unhappy, pointing at Liu Yuan and sneering.
"Qinghe, don't be rude" Li Lizhi drank her sister, turned her head to Liu Yuan and smiled and said, "General Liu, I'm sorry, my sister's temperament is not very good. ”
"No, it's the subordinates who broke their promises first, let the princesses wait for a long time, and ask the three princesses to forgive me." Without waiting for them to ask, Liu Yuan took the initiative to explain: "That's the case, last night, General Cheng invited me to Cheng's mansion, and he made him vomit after the worst, so he let it go, no, I slept all night, and now I still have a headache, and I was careless for a while, and I missed the princess's invitation." ”
Li Jing said a little gloatingly: "Ha Luha, it turns out that you ran into Cheng Lao Guogong, yes, I have to repair you well." ”
It seems that the image of Cheng Lao Demon King is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and even the princess says so.
"Jing Mei Hugh wants to make fun of it, General Liu is doing the right thing, a manly man, since he was early in seeking fame, General Liu and I cooperate to do such small things, which is already very face-saving. It would be nice if we had a little more patience. Li Lizhi explained for Liu Yuan.
This matter is Li Jing's most anxious, as if he can't wait for the newspaper to make a lot of money tomorrow.
Being a businessman is indeed not a decent thing, like Liu Yuan's achievement, in fact, he doesn't care about that bit of silver, and even for his own career, he withdraws away from business, and now he is chasing Liu Yuan to cooperate, which is indeed a bit unwilling.
The princess laughed, this matter was originally mentioned by Liu. It's good to have a beginning and an end, how can you blame the princess", Liu Yuan didn't want to talk to them so much, it was boring and not nutritious. So he changed the topic and said, "Princess, you are in such a hurry to find me." Isn't that all the preparation done? ”
Li Lizhi nodded and said, "Yes." It's four months, four months, and there's nothing we can do, so we rented a house, which is near Moyun Printing. It's also convenient to communicate in this way, Qinghao is not a central location, and the rent is not expensive, I let people rent half of it. Things like paper, ink and other things are ready, just wait for you to come back and preside over the overall situation, and I'll let someone take you to see what is missing, and then make up for it, get ready early, and open as soon as possible. ”
"It's okay, I'll let my people get familiar with it in advance and practice their hands."
At this time, the little lady sent tea, fruits and pastries or something, so that Liu Yuan and a few of them could chat while eating, among which Liu Yuan hadn't eaten today, so he took the opportunity to send snacks and let him pad his stomach, but don't be hungry.
After Li Jing heard Liu Yuan's answer, she was a little disappointed, according to the day of the negotiation, in two months, she will leave the cabinet and marry into the Cheng family, and she really wants to arrange these things as soon as possible, in this way, even if she marries out of Lu, she is not afraid of leaving herself, and when the time comes, she will take more body silver, and her life will be much better.
"General Liu, you said that these are ready, do you estimate, when will our first Chang'an Daily be published?" Although Liu Yuan said so, Princess Qinghe Li Jing was still not at ease, and asked inquisitively.
She was originally an acute child.
"We still need to collect, screen, arrange the board, etc., we either don't do it, we have to do it, we have to do it perfectly, and it will be a hit, by the way, we have to arrange people to interview some people, so that people can really feel that these things are happening around them, so that they can be more real and reliable." Liu Yuan patiently explained that he wanted to let these princesses know how to make a newspaper, not just print a few words, and then it would be done.
Li Lizhi said a little curiously: "Liu Yuan, I didn't say it clearly enough last time, why don't you say it again, what should you do, and we can cooperate with your work." ”
"It's very simple, in fact, what is reported is what happens around you, collect some jokes and information around you, for others to pass the time after dinner, because our guests have three third-rate nine sects, then the newspaper should be elegant and vulgar, high-quality people, like to read, that is, people who have little culture, can also find their own interesting content on it, for example, as long as you pick up this newspaper, it seems to know how the day of Chang'an is lived."
Liu Yuan added: "We can publish some excellent and talented articles on it, and let those scholars contribute by giving a pen fee, and we can also collect information on where the two cities will be discounted tomorrow, and tell those people to purchase, anyway, anything can be written, as long as there is something to see." ”
After saying so much at once, Li Lizhi and the others didn't seem to understand, but they felt very reasonable when they heard it, and Li Jing, the princess of Qinghe, said with a smile: "Liu Yuan, they all said that you are a great talent in Chang'an, have you prepared any masterpieces?" With you in charge, maybe we can even save those pen fees. ”
"That's right, Liu Yuan, when the time comes, your masterpieces will be bound into a book, and it is estimated that they will also be very popular." Li Lizhi also quipped on the side.
Although Liu Yuan is a famous general, but the status and prestige of the scholars are still quite high, in fact, in Yangzhou to defeat Xu Hongji, who is known as the first genius in the north, Liu Yuan's talent has been spread in Chang'an, known as "Cai Gao Jiudou" Xu Hongyue is outstanding, stepping on his position Liu Yuan's prestige is naturally rising, as Liu Yuan is favored day by day, vaguely, there is a momentum to replace Xu Hongji himself as a talent.
But what surprised everyone was that such a talented literati did not participate in the scientific examination, took the military route, and was actually awarded the military position of a Zhaowu lieutenant by the emperor himself, and was sent to Tubo to fight in the last year.
"Actually, to tell you the truth, I also write, but I'm not writing poetry, I'm going to write a novel, write a hundred or dozens of times, and then once a day, serialize it in the newspaper, I think, if that story is excellent, maybe there will be a lot of people." Liu Yuan suddenly said in a shocking voice.
What the? Writing a novel?
Li Lizhen, Li Jing and Princess Yuzhang looked at each other, all stunned by Liu Yuan's whimsy.
"Liu Yuan, you have a lot of experience in this area" Li Lizhi said with a smile: "You are in charge of coordination, if there is anything, just open your mouth, we will listen to you." ”
Since she didn't know how to do it, Li Lizhen decided to let go of power, Liu Yuan could toss as much as he liked, but listening to Liu Yuan's words, he had some expectations.
The people deliberated for a while, divided the labor and worked together, and tried to get the first newspaper out within seven days.
Liu Yuan despised Li Er a little in his heart, looking at the princesses of the Tang Dynasty, all of them are so good, but they are not good at pampering, in order to earn a little pocket money, they show their faces one by one, always saying that they will cut court expenses, and for the sake of the reputation of the first emperor through the ages, their daughters and concubines will not have a good life.
"By the way, Liu Yuan, before the Chinese New Year, didn't you help my mother repair a piece of jewelry? Because of your expedition, it has not yet been completed, and now that you are back, you have to worry about it even more. Li Lizhi said with a smile.
Li Lizhi didn't say it, Liu Yuan almost forgot that the work was "Danfeng Chaoyang", which had already reached the most critical steps, but he didn't expect a Tubo to commit a crime, messing up all his plans, and the new jewelry created for the eldest grandson queen with deep respect has dragged on long enough.
"Back to the princess, that piece of jewelry has been processed, and it only takes a few days for the subordinates to present a piece of jewelry that will definitely satisfy the eldest grandson queen." Liu Yuan said confidently.
"You're so confident, then I'll wait." Li Lizhi said with a smile.
After sitting for a while and chatting a few words, Li Lizhen and the three of them stood up, said goodbye to Liu Yuan with a smile: "General Liu, I'm waiting to come uninvited, I'm disturbed, it's not early, it's time for the three of us to go back to the palace." ”
Li Jing waved his fist at Liu Yuan and said, "Hurry up, you said it so well, and then ran to Tubo again, hanging our appetite for a few months, this time we can't delay it any longer." ”
Han, this little money fan, if it wasn't for your Lao Tzu's order, if you don't do it, I will pin my head to my belt and run to a place where birds don't? A few times I almost put my life on the line, and I'm afraid of you if you want to blame it.
"Three princesses, please wait a moment" Liu Yuan stopped Li Lizhen and the others, asked her to wait for a while, and turned around and entered the room.
Soon, Liu Yuan came out with three boxes, handed them to the three princesses, and said with a smile: "It's a small meaning, it's not a tribute." ”
Princess Yuzhang asked curiously, "General Liu, what are these coming from?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just a little local product that I got back in Tubo, Liu is just borrowing flowers to worship the Buddha, just don't dislike the three princesses."
As soon as they heard that it was a souvenir, the three of them didn't care, they accepted it casually, and when they waved goodbye, got into the carriage, and opened the "souvenir" at will, the three of them were stunned all at once:
Li Li's box is dressed in a blue sapphire, Qinghe Princess Li Jing is lying in the box, it is a fist-thick best agate, Xiao Yuzhang is holding a valuable night pearl, smiling so much that he can't see his teeth.
What a "souvenir". (To be continued......)
