Chapter Ninety-Three: No One Should Be Happy
Li Yifu came out of Ziwei Palace, and only turned from the palace road to the main road, he saw an ox cart full of hay slamming into his convoy fiercely, smoking from the tail of the ox pulling the cart, and at the same time, the hay behind it was also burning in an instant, dragged by the crazy cow like a huge fireball.
Li Yifu did not panic, and the guards under his command quickly thought of countermeasures, put the front carriage across the road, and cut the reins with a knife, allowing the frightened horse to run first.
Before the horse ran away, the mad bull dragged a big fireball and crashed into the carriage, and the lit hay on the cart left the cart at once, passed the crashed carriage and the mad bull that fell to the ground, and landed ten paces away in front of the carriage of Li Yifu.
Li Yifu lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked indifferently at the burning carriage in front of him, as well as the mad cow still struggling in the flames, and said to the leader of the guards guarding beside him: "Didn't catch the thief?" ”
The leader of the guards looked at the unscrupulous people who were scurrying around looking for suspicious people in Luoyang: "Lang Jun, it seems that there will be no result." ”
Li Yifu nodded and said, "In that case, let's go back to the imperial city and rest in the official office in the future." ”
The leader of the guards said: "Lang Jun, in the imperial city, there is no way for the old slave to personally protect you with people, and besides, all the food there is not something that the old slave can pick and choose, and the accident may be even greater." ”
Li Yifu said: "Isn't the imperial city also stable? ”
The leader of the guards said: "So far, the identities of the people who plotted to assassinate Langjun are very mixed, there are dancing girls, there are cooks, there are bad people, there are merchants, there are Tuyuhun people, and it is not surprising that there is a miscellaneous servant in the imperial city. ”
Li Yifu looked at the mad cow that was no longer ricocheting, nodded and said, "We should leave Luoyang as soon as possible and go to Chang'an." ”
The leader of the guards sighed and said, "Judging from the current situation, it may be better to be in the barracks, but I'm afraid of ......."
Li Yifu smiled bitterly: "Yun Chu's reputation in the army has always been very good, and the biggest dream of the Heluo Mansion soldiers is to be transferred to Chang'an to participate in the army, so the army is not so stable." ”
The leader of the guards said, "Since Lang Jun knew that Yun Chu was harming you, didn't he make it clear to His Majesty?" ”
Li Yifu sighed and said: "It's played, Your Majesty doesn't believe it, or rather, Your Majesty doesn't want to believe it, Jiulang, we are in big trouble." ”
The head of the guard said puzzledly: "Lang Jun is in a high position as the prime minister, the holy family is profound, and the queen has a lot of trust in Lang Jun. ”
Li Yifu shook his head with a smile and said, "You don't understand, since you also feel that the Imperial City is not a safe place, let's continue to go back to the house." ”
Seeing that the bad people moved the burning haystack away, Li Yifu's carriage continued to move forward surrounded by the guards, only Li Yifu was inexplicably a little sad when he passed by the burned black mad cow.
A strong man in black walked through Ping'an Fang, stopped at a small bamboo shop in Kaiming Fang, looked at it, and then entered the shop.
The shopkeeper of the bamboo shop greeted him with a smile and said, "The guest officer has needs, and the small shop has everything." ”
The strong man in black took out a piece of money from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper: "The thing has been done, it has not been successful, according to the previous agreement, settle the bill!" ”
The shopkeeper of the bamboo shop took the one with the appearance of a pavilion on it, and said suspiciously: "Why is this?" ”
The strong man in black saw that the shopkeeper seemed to be confused, so he said in a deep voice: "You don't know this thing? ”
The shopkeeper shook his head resolutely and said: "The guest should know that nowadays, the private casting money cannot be sold at a price, besides, the small shop is a bamboo shop, and the silver money is also collected, but the price cannot be given." ”
When the strong man in black saw that the shopkeeper of the bamboo shop said that the bull's head was not the right horse's mouth, he snatched the money and turned around and left the bamboo shop.
As soon as he went out, he saw a man selling straw sandals leaning on the lintel of the bamboo shop and smiling at him.
The strong man in black hesitated, put the money in his palm, and spread his hands in front of the man selling straw sandals.
The straw sandals seller took away the money and said with a smile: "The method of the fire ox to break the enemy is the most thoughtful assassination in the past two days, but it is a pity that it was blocked by the car in front, otherwise the thief will shed his skin even if he does not die."
There is disharmony, after all, it is a helpless thing, oxen, ox carts, forage, count eight times of money, the risk you take is counted as seven times of money, a total of fifteen times? ”
The strong man in black looked at the tattered straw sandal stall opposite, he didn't understand how this man could get fifteen yuan of money.
Just when he was puzzled, the man who sold straw sandals took out a string of money from his sleeve, put it in the palm of the strong man in black and said, "A piece of money is always money, and it is a thousand dollars." ”
The strong man in black looked around with money.
The man who sold straw sandals said: "Don't look at it, your companion in Dali Temple has already won Lao Tzu's split plum blossom plan, and you are left alone." ”
The strong man in black arched his back slightly, and was about to draw a knife from his waist, when he saw the straw sandals seller waving his hand at him and said: "This is the business of Tsing Yi Building, as long as you do it according to the agreement, you can receive the money, as for whether you are from the government or not, it doesn't matter, we only look at the results."
Brother, you look at your forty years old, right? ”
The strong man in black said vigilantly, "How are you doing?" ”
The straw sandals seller said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I just see that your clothes are shabby, and your shoes are almost worn, it seems that your family background should not be good, how about it, the errand of Dali Temple is not enough to support your family of eight, right?" ”
A layer of fine sweat oozed from the forehead of the strong man in black, but the man who sold straw shoes grabbed his arm and put the money back in his hand and said, "The first business is completed, and we will talk about it next time." ”
The strong man in black wanted to pounce on the straw sandals seller, but after all, he didn't move, and watched him clean up the stall and leave the Kaiming Fang with his burden.
When the people of Dali Temple in Luoyang found the strong man in black, the strong man in black shook his head at the head catcher.
The head catcher said: "They won't give money? ”
The strong man in black took out ten coins from his arms and put them in his hand and said, "I didn't see the thief, but I had these fifteen coins in my arms." ”
The head catcher took the ten coins and weighed them in his hand and said, "If you lose it, you should give eleven according to the market price of Luoyang."
However, people are also reputable, and they thought it was a shadowless thing, but they didn't expect to really have money to take it.
It's a pity, we are officials, not thieves, otherwise this transaction is completely done.
Lao Su, since we have given money, we have to do this kind of thing to lure the snake out of the hole a few more times before it can be done, anyway, Shangguan has already ordered to crack the case of assassinating the prime minister within a time limit, no matter how many times we do it, we have an excuse.
Prime Minister we dare not hurt, those from the people ......"
Lao Su, a strong man in black, nodded and said: "What the leader said is that the brothers live a miserable life one by one, and there is this kind of thing that can win fifteen times by doing something, our brothers must not miss it." ”
Just after the people from Dali Temple left, a young man who looked like a man who was very close to them turned around and entered another courtyard.
Xue Changfeng Bala is now popular in Chang'an and Luoyang, and said to Yin Erhu: "In two days, the Nine Sects plotted to assassinate, six died, three were captured alive, and four people ran away, it seems that the guards around Li Yifu are still quite effective." ”
Yin Erhu said dissatisfiedly: "We only have the qualifications to use 10,000 yuan, and you spent almost 300 yuan in two days, so if you use it so lavishly, 10,000 yuan won't last long." ”
Xue Changfeng shook his head and said, "It's not your money, what do you care about so much?" ”
Yin Erhu said: "The money on the lord is not blowing in the wind, I don't allow you to waste it like this." ”
Xue Changfeng said: "Every money spent today will definitely be repaid a hundred times in the future." ”
Yin Erhu said with a smile: "It's the Lord, if you can't talk about repaying or not, it's the Lord who earns more and less, and you and I can only take two points of profit from it." ”
Xue Changfeng sighed and said, "If the tiger is tied to its legs and feet and its sharp teeth are closed, how can it roar in the mountains and forests?" ”
Yin Erhu frowned and said: "Here in the Lord, the rules are the biggest, if the Lord wants money, how much money he can't get?"
If the Lord wants power, he has a better path, Changfeng, this Tsing Yi Building, I helped you ask the Lord for it.
It is a place that can help you fulfill your dreams, you can have a good dream, but you must not make this dream come true. ”
Xue Changfeng sighed and said, "This is to let my horse run, but not let the horse eat grass." ”
Yin Erhu said with a smile: "The lord said that Tsing Yi Lou is black, and if you are not careful, you will become a poisonous dragon, so put shackles on this poisonous dragon and let him dance." ”
Xue Changfeng said: "If this is the case, it will be difficult for things here to achieve what the Lord thinks." ”
Yin Erhu said: "The behavior must be controlled, the matter must be achieved, if this cannot be done, what will the Lord do with this Tsing Yi Building, what do you want you and me to do?"
Also, don't play any tricks in front of the Lord that will discourage the king's life, for the Lord will not allow such a thing to happen.
Moreover, what the Lord hates most is that others surprise him, so even if we fail to do things in a bland way, it is a hundred times better than making a big surprise to the Lord. ”
Xue Changfeng looked at Yin Erhu's sparkling eyes and said, "Who is our lord?" Chang'an Cloud? ”
Yin Erhu smiled: "You can continue to guess." ”
Xue Changfeng hesitated and said, "I only know that you are a shopkeeper in the Jinchangfang Canteen. ”
Yin Erhu smiled: "You can continue to guess." ”
Xue Changfeng said: "The unreasonable point is that Helan Minzhi, Yun Chu and Helan Minzhi seem to be just gentlemen's friends, there is no grudge, and there is no kindness, why do you want to deal with Helan Minzhi in every possible way, this is the only thing I can't figure out." ”
Yin Erhu patted Xue Changfeng on the shoulder and said: "Don't think about it, it's tiring, if you don't like Tsing Yi Building, you can give it to someone else, you can go to participate in next year's National Dynasty Competition, and it's not bad to get a Jinshi to go back to Guangzong and Yaozu." ”
Xue Changfeng gritted his teeth and said, "I was born to be a dissolute person, and I can't live a stable life. ”
Yin Erhu said with a smile: "Then continue, so that Li Yifu can't go to Chang'an smoothly." ”
Li Yifu's carriage and horses walked very slowly, and it was not until the sky was about to get dark that they returned to Luoyang Mansion safely.
Entering the back house, he did not go to his wife Zhao's room, but walked into a lonely courtyard near the left.
Chun Yu put down his pen and ink and went out to greet him, and without waiting for Chun Yu to speak, Li Yifu said: "Can the divine text be used?" ”
Chun Yu pointed to the tortoise shells and keels all over the table, and sighed: "The deeper you delve, the more loopholes there will be. ”
Li Yifu circled around the room and said: "I have a feeling that a great disaster is coming, if you can't write an edict for your majesty in the divine text when your majesty canonizes Mount Tai, I am afraid that a catastrophe will come." ”
Chun Yu looked at Li Yifu and sighed: "Now even if the Li family is a domestic servant, he can have an official body, not to mention that all the children in the family occupy the position of Qinggui, and the concubine originally thought that Lang Jun would be satisfied here."
Unexpectedly, last year, Lang Jun migrated Aya's bones to the side of Yongkang Mausoleum, if he did this quietly, Lang Jun just recruited the people of seven counties to build tombs for Aya, and the regulation was only one zhang lower than that of Yongkang Mausoleum.
What the concubine didn't understand the most was why Lang Jun was so reckless in this matter that the gift-giving queue was seventy miles long?
Lang Jun, these ways of yours are hating yourself for not dying. ”
Li Yifu was blushing by Chun Yu's words, and slapped Chun Yu's face and said angrily: "It's just a cheap maid, and I dare to comment on the big husband." ”
After the fight, he didn't even look at Chun Yu, who fell to the ground, and walked away, only to feel that there was a fire in his heart that was really burning violently.
Chun Yu waited for Li Yifu to leave, then slowly got up, rubbed his red and swollen face that was beaten, and a maid quietly walked over and said to Chun Yu: "Lang Jun is gone." ”
Chun Yushi rubbed his aching face and said to the maid: "The people I want you to contact have been contacted?" ”
The maid hesitated and said, "Madam, do we really want to leave the county mansion?" ”
Chun Yu looked at the maid and said, "The building here is about to collapse, and it is no longer possible for us weak women to shelter from the wind and rain." ”
The maid has been following Chun Yu's side since she was a child, loyal to her, and seeing that her wife has made up her mind, she nodded and said: "The maid has already looked for the best dart master in the guild, they said that there are only 700 miles to Anyang, basically all official roads, there are not many thieves, if you follow the light car, you can arrive in five days." ”
Chun Yu said with a smile: "If we arrive in Anyang, our master and servant will be completely safe, and we have some savings over the years, so we will be able to accompany these oracle bones and keels in the future, and we can study with peace of mind." ”
The maid looked at her wife and said puzzledly: "We are just two weak women, helpless in Anyang......"
Chun Yu said: "Naturally, I have to rely on, but people dislike my bad reputation, so they don't want to contact us directly."
My reputation is not good, and my body is also dirty, but fortunately, learning is a thing that is born with the ability not to be contaminated with dirt, even if it is knowledge that comes out of the latrine, when it should shine, it will still shine, and when it should be admired by everyone, it will still be admired by everyone. ”
The maid cautiously pointed to the slap print that appeared on Chun Yu's face and said, "What should I do here?" ”
Chun Yu pointed to the scars on his face and said, "This is the last bit of heart I have given him to protect us over the years.
When he fished me out of prison, he valued nothing more than my color, and now, I have nothing to worry about, and this is the best time to go.
I don't want to see him beheaded all over the house, even if it's the last bit of tenderness I give him. ”
