Chapter 16 Send another 800,000 guan

Li Mao stood there, the more he thought about it, the more funny he felt, a father would actually embankment his son to this point, no wonder the Tang royal family turned up several generations, all of them were flesh and blood, and swords fought together, maybe in the future, this carefree emperor will also come to the point where he can't help himself! In addition, at this moment, Gao Lishi, who was standing on the side, saw Li Mao leaning on the railing and thinking for a long time without replying, thinking that the little prince in front of him was a wealth addict and was reluctant to bleed.

So the dead old eunuch smiled in his eyes, and then opened up to Li Mao with some seriousness: "Your Highness, the sage wants to use the money in your hand now, and it is just a temporary emergency, if you have any use in the future, you can ask the sage to ask for it back!" Where is the use of the division between father and son so clear, and the charcoal business you just mentioned, didn't he also agree to all of them, the saint? This matter can't just focus on the immediate gains and losses......"

Li Mao turned to look at Gao Lishi with puzzled eyes, although he still felt very speechless, but somehow he always felt that the words of the dead eunuch were somewhat reasonable, so he barely squeezed out a smile and nodded, but in his heart, he couldn't help but sigh again, because the ugliness of human nature is not at all ancient and modern, and many things can be done not only what you think!

"Lao Gao, what you said is also reasonable, if you want to say that the father and the emperor are in trouble, this king should do his best to help as a child, but the money given now is as you said, and he must pay it back in the future, you can tell me a number first, there is actually not much left in the king's hand......"

"Yes, Yes, Your Highness, that's what you said, there is borrowing and repaying, and it is not difficult to borrow him again? Then Your Highness, how about adding up to the two of you to make up two million pieces of money together with the treasury that you have already given to the treasury earlier? Gao Lishi squinted his small eyes and carefully reported the number, and Li Mao immediately howled loudly like a conditioned reflex.

"I'm grass, Lao Gao, do you really think that this Wang's family is a bank? Just that one million guan, this king and I have spent more than half a year saving money, and now you have added an extra million guan when you open your mouth, is this king going to grab it for you? If you talk like this, then I will forget about my father's busyness, who loves to fight in Tibet, who will fight well! Anyway, two million kings can't be taken out even if they are killed! ”

Before Li Mao finished speaking, he turned around and was about to go down the steps to run, but where was Gao Lishi willing to let go of his boiled duck, so what Comrade Gao did next was something that Li Mao was a little unexpected, because the dead old eunuch in front of him seemed to be forced to be a little anxious, and he actually used real kung fu under his instinctive reaction, a harrier turned over, and before Li Mao ran a few steps, he jumped steadily in front of him to block it

And Gao Lishi's inconspicuous appearance of such a light trick was so inconspicuous that Li Mao was completely suppressed on the spot, and then he immediately circled around Gao Lishi like a monster, and his eyes immediately looked up and down the old man's body with green light, and couldn't help but open his mouth again and again to praise while touching.

"I'm sorry, you can be high, this king said before that you are a martial arts master, why can't you hide it now, but now you can't hide it, what do you say about this trick just now, is it the legendary light skill, it is the kind of eaves that walks on the wall, and can climb over the wall into the courtyard......"

"Eh, Your Highness, at this time, why are you so sick! Let's sort out the priorities of things first, let's go back to the kung fu thing, do you see how much of this money is appropriate? Saint, is he still waiting for the old slave to reply? ”

"No, no...... The silver is not in a hurry in advance, your old hand is so light that the king has opened his eyes today, although the girls in the palace play the sword on weekdays, although there is nothing different, but it is a big difference with your old body method, Lao Gao will go to the Shouwang Mansion to help the king train them another day? You won't be able to practice this kung fu for decades, right? ”

"Your Highness, Your Highness, don't touch the legs and feet of the old slave anymore, it's not good for people to see it, it's easy to discuss the matter of teaching kung fu, it's all easy to discuss, do you think it's so successful? The two add up to 1.8 million guan! You take the one million first, and then give it twice, and the time is limited to two months, the old slave knows that the money in your hand also has a lot of uses, as for the saint's side, the old slave will explain and persuade on your behalf, okay? ”

Gao Lishi's face was full of sadness at this time, and even his voice was a little choked, if it weren't for the many guards patrolling back and forth in the palace, he might have wanted to kneel down directly to Li Mao and beg grandpa to tell grandma.

Li Mao saw that Gao Lishi was so embarrassed, so he withdrew his hand very happily in line with the intention of borrowing the slope to get off the donkey, and then nodded and agreed, because he knew from the bottom of his heart that no matter how much money this money was, as long as Li Longji had already spoken, then even if he shirked and dodged now, he still had to give it in the end, instead of making Li Laosan angry, it was better to buy him another favor, after all, Gao Lishi also saved himself 200,000 yuan in silver.

"Okay! Today, you will come to the old high, this king will agree so happily, if it is replaced by someone else, it is our Ning Wang's father to ask for it, I'm afraid it will not be so smooth, the old saying is good, father and mother, it is better to have the silver in our hands, this king's business, how long has you said it has been opened, and some people are so worried about it......"

Li Mao's words behind him were simply blurted out, and Gao Lishi, who knew Li Longji's thoughts, immediately turned pale with fright, his legs were weak, and he was a little unsteady in his standing, facing the peak duel between the father and son, to be honest, he was really powerless to maneuver in the middle, if the prince in front of him was someone else or it would be better to say something, after all, he, the first cronie around the emperor, is not a dry meal.

But the difficult little enemy he is dealing with now really fulfills the old saying: one thing descends to one thing, not that the enemies do not get together. After reluctantly adjusting his mentality, the painful Gao Lishi also hurriedly picked up his robe and pretended to put it on Li Mao, and took advantage of the moment when he was close to him, and he was still very benevolent and righteous to admonish Li Mao.

"Your Highness, it's good that you understand it in your heart, you don't dare to say it again in the future, you are making such a fuss today can be regarded as completely letting the saint remember it, everything in the future, you have to think twice before acting! And why do you want so much money from the eighteenth prince, the saint wants it, you can give some obediently, don't worry too much, the old slave will send you out of the palace now! ”

"Thank you Uncle Gao for mentioning it, but this king is such a straight man, there are some things it can't hide even if it wants to, you always say no, don't send it, at this time the people in the palace should send someone to wait at the palace gate, the father and the emperor can't leave Uncle Gao for a moment, you should hurry back and report the matter of the silver, the one million guan will be sent to the household tomorrow, and the other half a month and a half The first 400,000 guan will be delivered on time!"

"In this way, the old slave will go back to his life first, Your Highness, you can walk slowly......" Gao Lishi put his coat on Li Mao's shoulders, and then slowly retreated to the side and bowed to see him off.

And after Li Mao trotted down the steps all the way, he didn't even look back and flew towards the palace gate.

In addition, not far from the Suzaku Gate, where the carriage was parked, Wangcai and Shuang'er, as Li Mao expected, waited there early with a food box, and after seeing Li Mao walk out of the palace gate, Xiao Shuang'er rushed straight to the front of the guards with a shout.

"Your Highness, why did you come out so late, this good hour has passed, have you eaten?" Li Mao shook his head while greeting the guards, and then immediately reached out and hooked the neck of the big and small shuang'er after waiting for the people to get out of the iron fence.

"Let's go, talk to the carriage again, the weather of this dog day is almost freezing this king!" Hearing this, Xiaoshuang immediately curled up and snuggled into Li Mao's arms, and after the three of them tiptoed into the carriage, Wangcai quickly followed.

"Your Highness, are we going back to the palace, or where are we going?" "Let's go to the east to visit the city, the matter of the restaurant has always been taken care of by Yu Aweng, and this king has never been to see it once!"

"Your Royal Highness, you really say this, I haven't seen how you have gone out since you went to Ningwangfu to serve as an errand soldier, and then we moved to the new palace, you are also a thoughtful nest in the study, according to the small one, Your Highness, you should walk around more often."

"Who said that this king doesn't go out much, it's just that he doesn't go to the city often, haven't you seen that the owners of the sheep soup restaurant outside the Suzaku Gate are familiar with this king? There are many places where this king has been, I don't believe you ask the big and small pairs! ”

After hearing Li Mao say this, Wangcai immediately felt that his identity as the first entourage was offended, so he looked at Da Shuang'er who was fiddling with the food box, he very much hoped that Li Mao was coaxing himself, but before he could ask, Da Shuang'er warned him with a white eye, but it was a simple-minded little Shuang'er who smiled and showed off his own words.

"Hmph...... Now dumbfounded, I usually always brag to people that I am inseparable from His Highness, in fact, His Highness sneaked out with the two of us at night, you don't want to follow the door, do you know how lively those places are? Everywhere there are beautiful women and music ......"

"Xiaoshuang, don't talk nonsense, Your Highness, how could he take us to such a place, if you let Sister Qiuxiang know, not only Your Highness will be scolded, but we will also be punished...... "Ah...... Then we haven't been there, Brother Wangcai, you can't go out and talk nonsense......"

"No, no, even if I am stupid, I know what to say and what not to say, otherwise His Highness will trust me so much, right? The eldest sister and I are also tired of Qiu Xiang's steward, I am in the same group as you and His Royal Highness, and Xiao Qiang's family reports everything to Sister Qiu Xiang, which is very hateful! ”

Wangcai saw that Li Mao was just looking down and pulling food in the food box, and he didn't say anything to stop it, so the more he talked, the more energetic he became, from the daily flow of customers in the palace to the number of melons and fruits in the kitchen...... Anyway, some sesame mung beans are big gossip, as long as they are related to Xiaoqiang, he will add oil and vinegar to the complaint one by one.

"You said that Xiaoqiang often takes the leftover meals from the kitchen and follows Qiu Xiang to the welfare workshop?" "Yes, Your Highness, the two of them seem to have come out of the welfare workshop when they were young, and the Qiu Xiang steward took Xiaoqiang back every once in a while, and every time he brought a lot of clothes and food, I didn't tell you that I secretly went there once, that place is full of old people and children, and there are some military ruffians who have injured their legs and feet, Your Highness, you can never go to chaos very ......"

After Wangcai said this, he looked up at Li Mao with a little weakness, and saw Li Mao nodding disapprovingly, so he slowly took a deep breath and closed his mouth without continuing.

After eating two bowls of rice and putting down the chopsticks, Li Mao immediately closed his eyes and leaned on Xiaoshuang's lap and fell asleep, so the carriage was silent for an instant, and after about half an hour, the carriage entered the east visit city on Chang'an Street, so Wangcai whispered to wake Li Mao.

"Your Highness, the visit to the city has arrived, let's get off! Do you want to ask the six sons to drive away some irrelevant people? "No need, let them guard carefully, just wait for you to call this king Langjun, so as not to cause trouble!" "Oh, the little one will be ordered!"

After the guards parked the carriage properly, Li Mao plunged into the lively Dongwan City, although it has been ten years to come to the world of flowers in Datang, but just like he and Wangcai said before, it is really the first time he has been wandering in the most famous commercial street in Datang in such casual clothes as today.

As a result, Li Mao felt curious and novel about everything he saw with his eyes at the moment, so that he couldn't pull it out when he saw it...... Even the vendors selling snacks on the street, he stepped forward one by one to look at them and ask about the prices.
