Chapter 497: Business blows each other
Although he was very surprised by Feng Zhidai's audience, Li Er's tone was very indifferent, he wanted to give Feng Zhidai a dismount first, after all, Feng Zhixin, the son of the Feng family, dared to brazenly attack and kill the emperor's envoy, this is contempt for the imperial court, the crime is unforgivable, Feng Zhidai couldn't help but feel a sudden in his heart when he heard it, the emperor's attitude was not enthusiastic at all, not only was he not enthusiastic but also very cold! Although he had been prepared in his heart, Feng Zhidai was still inevitably nervous, and Feng Zhidai said.
"Qi Yu sage, Feng Zhixin, the younger brother of the minister, was young and confused, and he had a grudge with Huatinghou because of a misunderstanding, and he had the audacity to attack and kill Huatinghou, causing a catastrophe. The father of the family knew that after the righteous destruction of his relatives, he directly killed Feng Zhixin, but the father also knew that it was a fault of discipline, so he wanted to ask the saint for his guilt, but after all, the father of the family was old, and he really couldn't go all the way north, so he sent his ministers to Chang'an to meet the saint and ask for the sin on behalf of the father. ”
The prince took the concert in Feng Zhidai's hand, and respectfully presented it to the emperor, Li Er took the concert and looked at it, he knew that Feng Ang would definitely petition for sin, but he didn't expect Feng An's son to take the concert to ask for guilt on behalf of his father, Li Er said in a deep voice.
"Feng Zhixin's matter is already known, I didn't expect that in the Tang Dynasty, there would be people who dared to attack and kill a certain envoy, it is really lawless, is there still a court in the eyes?"
Feng Zhidai hurriedly said.
"Feng Zhixin has been negligent in discipline since he was a child, and he has always been mixed with the market, so he has developed a temperament that does not know the height of the sky, and now he has been ambushed, and he asks the saint to forgive his sins!"
As far as Li Er's heart is concerned, can Li Yong still know? It is nothing more than to give Feng Zhi a dismount, first deter Feng Zhidai, now it's time to give Li Er's step down, Li Yong said with a smile.
"In fact, Feng Zhi is narrow-minded, he will repay his eyes, and he acts in an extreme way, and he has nothing to do with the old Guogong, although the old Guogong does have a fault of not teaching, but the old Guogong is old after all, and he has to govern Lingnan political affairs too much, which is also an unintentional mistake."
Li Er nodded.
"What Li Yong said makes sense, if it weren't for this reason, he would never be spared, since Geng Guogong has killed his relatives in righteousness, and the guilt is also sincere, this matter will end here! However, I don't want to have a next time! ”
Feng Zhidai breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, this is someone in the court who is good to be an official! If it weren't for Li Yong helping to tell, he wouldn't know how to pass the test today! Feng Zhidai hurriedly bowed and said.
"Rest assured, the saint dares to promise that there will never be a next time!"
Li Er's face finally showed a smile and said with a smile.
"In fact, Lingnan is still very relieved, in fact, Lingnan has been very peaceful in recent years, which is all the credit of Geng Guogong, and I am very pleased."
Feng Zhidai couldn't help muttering in his heart when he heard this, relieved that it was strange, was he really relieved? Do you really hope that Lingnan is peaceful? In fact, Feng Zhidai underestimated Li Er's mind a little, Li Er really hoped that Lingnan would be peaceful, and hoped that the entire Tang Dynasty would be peaceful, because Li Er's eyes were on the Western Regions, on Tubo, and on Goguryeo. Feng Zhidai has always been in a corner, unable to understand Li Er's ambition at all, Feng Zhidai said respectfully.
"My father and ministers knew that the saint had high hopes, so they kept trembling, and they didn't dare to slack off at all, for fear of living up to the saint's hope."
Next, Li Er expressed his satisfaction with the achievements made by Lingnan, and Feng Zhidai said that it was only under the wise leadership of the emperor that some achievements could be made...... Li Yong listened to it, he couldn't help it, he was really about to can't help it, it's all nonsense! However, Li Er and Feng Zhidai's nonsense showed no sign of stopping at all, but it was very enthusiastic, Li Yong couldn't help but think, at this moment, if he couldn't help but laugh, what would Li Er and Feng Zhidai do? Haha, it's really interesting to think about.
"Lingnan is thousands of miles away from Chang'an, Feng Aiqing worked tirelessly to come to the audience, I am very happy, if I am not in a hurry to go back, I will stay in Chang'an for a long time, let Li Yong treat you well, and a harvest ceremony will be held in a few days, Feng Aiqing must stay to watch the ceremony!"
Li Er said with a smile, and Feng Zhidai bowed.
"It's rare for a minister to come to Chang'an, so he must have a long time to see and see the prosperity of Chang'an."
Li Yong said with a smile.
"Rest assured, saint! When the minister went to Lingnan, he was taken care of by Geng Guogong, and now that Feng Tingshi has come to Chang'an, of course the minister must do his best to be a landlord. ”
Li Er laughed.
"I'm happy today, I'm coming, I'm going to have a feast, I'm going to have a few drinks with Feng Aiqing!"
Banquet in the palace? This is really a rare glory, generally only the courtiers who have made great achievements will have the glory of the palace banquet, how can he Feng Zhidai He De, even let the emperor give a banquet in the palace? You know, when he just entered the main hall, the emperor's attitude towards him was very cold, how could he give a banquet in the palace? Besides, he entered the palace to ask for sin! How can anyone enter the palace to ask for sins but be given a banquet by the palace? However, it did happen. Why? Feng Zhidai couldn't help but glance at Li Yong, it seemed that there was only one possibility, the reason why he could give a banquet in the palace was because of Li Yong, but no matter what, Feng Zhidai was pleasantly surprised, what does this mean? This shows that the emperor trusts their Feng family, and all this is because of Li Yong! If the news of the banquet in the emperor's palace spreads, who will dare to attack their Feng family in the future? At this moment, Feng Zhidai's feelings in his heart are very complicated, not only feeling excited and surprised, but also full of gratitude to Li Yong, the banquet in the palace is actually more of a glory, no one really eats, after all, there is the emperor in front of him, who dares to really treat it as a meal? Feng Zhidai's mentality is like this at this moment, but he still feels very curious, the palace has a banquet! What kind of dishes are the imperial banquets in the palace? When the imperial banquet was put on the table, Feng Zhidai couldn't help but be slightly stunned, wasn't this the dish he ate in Li Yong's mansion yesterday? That's right, it must be Princess Changle who brought out the secret recipe of the palace, Feng Zhidai couldn't help but sigh in his heart, look at Li Yong, what he eats every day is the imperial banquet in the palace, he has eaten at Li Yong's place before seeing these dishes, Feng Zhidai felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, Li Yong next to him has already eaten a lot, what is reserved and what is reserved is not within Li Yong's consideration at all, for Li Yong, the number of times he came to the palace to eat the imperial banquet was about the same as the number of times Li Yong went to the Qinglou, Feng Zhidai next to him saw Li Yong's casual appearance, I am more and more sure in my heart, the reason why the emperor gives a banquet in the palace is simply to see Li Yong's face! I am so grateful, Li Yong's face in Chang'an is big, and Li Yong's eighty percent of the people are really not much at all! Since Li Yong, a regular customer, led the way, Feng Zhidai felt a lot calmer, but when he actually ate it, Feng Zhidai was suddenly stunned again, how did he feel that the taste was not as good as the taste he ate in Li Yong's mansion yesterday? A thought suddenly popped up in his heart, the dishes in the palace couldn't be learned from Li Yong's mansion, right? Then the emperor persuaded him to drink, Feng Zhidai took a sip, and it was really a glimmer of heaven! This is exactly the same as what I ate and drank in Li Yong's mansion yesterday! And the dishes in Li Yong's mansion are not as delicious as they taste, this is the imperial banquet? I don't know why, Feng Zhidai was suddenly a little disappointed, no matter how it tasted, but at least it was glorious, wasn't it? Thinking about it this way, Feng Zhidai felt much better in his heart, when he left the palace, Feng Zhidai still had a feeling like in a dream, God knows, how anxious he was when he went north this way, for fear that the emperor would be angry, and he went north to see the strength outside Lingnan, he finally understood the old man's caution and worry, he had long lost the confidence to resist the imperial court, but he never expected that the trip to Chang'an would be so smooth, not only calmed the emperor's anger, but also was given a banquet in the emperor's palace, It's so smooth that it's beyond imagination, and of course all this is because of Li Yong's presence, and there are people in the court who are good officials! What's more, Li Yong, who is still very important in the court and has a deep holy family, walked out of the palace gate, Feng Zhidai bowed deeply with a grateful look on his face.
"Huatinghou, thank you very much, if it weren't for Huatinghou's presence, I really don't know how to calm the saint's anger, and how can I be given a banquet in the saint's palace?"
Li Yong said with a smile.
"Brother Feng is polite, it's all because the old man is loyal to the country, I'm just telling the truth, there is no need to say thank you, now we are in the same breath!"
Feng Zhidai said with a smile.
"Also, it's hypocritical to say polite words again, Huating Hou's kindness, our Feng family has it in mind!"
Seeing Feng Zhidai's gratitude overflowing, Li Yong was really embarrassed, because he felt that he really didn't do anything, Li Yong felt that even if there was no him, Li Er would not treat Feng Zhidai well, and after beating him, he would still give a banquet in the palace, Li Er, this guy is in the dark! Li Yong said with a smile.
"Brother Feng, let's go, take you to the East and West Markets, to say that the most lively in this Chang'an City is the East and West Cities!"
The east and west cities can be said to be the largest and most lively markets in the world today, and the goods are dazzling, walking on the bustling streets of the East Market, Feng Zhidai was dumbfounded, too prosperous and too lively, compared with Lingnan, it is simply a heaven and an underground!
"It's so bustling! Although I have heard of the names of the eastern and western cities for a long time, I realized that it was still beyond my imagination when I actually saw it. ”
Feng Zhidai couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and Li Yong asked with a smile.
"Do you know why Chang'an is so prosperous, and the eastern and western cities are so prosperous and lively?"
Feng Zhidai said as a matter of course.
"Of course, Chang'an is the capital of the Tang Dynasty!"
"Of course, there's that factor, and there's a look, look at the merchants, look, them!"
Li Yong said with a smile and then pointed his finger at a merchant from the Western Regions, Feng Zhidai pondered for a while, and suddenly said.
"What does Hua Tinghou mean, trade?"
Li Yong said with a smile.
"That's right, trade, that's the benefit of trade, the abundance of materials, the rolling wealth, the prosperity of the city." I have to say that what Li Yong said is indeed reasonable, Chang'an can have such prosperity and wealth, and it is indispensable to the credit of the Western Regions trade route, although Lingnan is too remote to participate in the trade of the Western Regions, but it can go to sea to trade! Look at how prosperous these two cities are! Look at the prosperity and magnificence of Chang'an City! Once the imperial court set up the city department in Guangzhou, then the city of Guangzhou will be allowed to go to the sea for trade, which will definitely bring earth-shaking changes to Lingnan, Feng Zhidai is really looking forward to it, and asked excitedly.
"Huating Hou, is there any eyebrow about the establishment of the City Division?"
Seeing the prosperity of the East City, what he is most concerned about now is whether the matter of the City Department has been decided, Li Yong said with a smile.
"Actually, as soon as I returned to Chang'an, I reported to the sage, and the sage has promised to set up a city in Haizhou, Mingzhou and Guangzhou. Steady! ”
Feng Zhidai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, since it was proposed by Li Yong, and the emperor had already approved it, there would definitely be no twists and turns, stable! Feng Zhidai said excitedly.
"Great!"
Completely relieved Feng Zhidai began to tour with great interest, imagining the prosperous scene of Guangzhou City in the future, Li Yong did not bring Feng Zhidai back to Lijiazhuang, but brought back to a house in Chang'an, Li Lizhi had already sent the housekeeper to clean the house, let Feng Zhidai live in Lijiazhuang, it is inconvenient for Feng Zhidai, it is not convenient for Li Yong, and Feng Zhidai is not necessarily happy to live in Lijiazhuang, after all, it is outside the city and not free, Feng Zhidai must want to live in Chang'an City and understand Chang'an City, so, Li Yong's arrangement is very appropriate for Feng Zhidai, he went to the Shenji Battalion, and went to the firearms prison, Li Yong, the chief officer who had disappeared for more than half a year, finally appeared again, so that the officers and craftsmen of the Shenji Battalion and the firearms supervisor were very excited, and after a brief understanding of the situation, it was already dark, and when he returned to the Xishan Courtyard, it was already bright, and Li Yong couldn't help but sigh, it was so busy, there were too many things, if the officials in the court knew about it, they would definitely not be able to help spraying him, where are you! Which of the chief officials of the yamen and the chief of the military camp in the DPRK and China will be the shopkeeper like you? As soon as Li Yong sat down on the soft collapse, Chunlan served fragrant tea, yes, Chunlan had returned to Xishan from Huating County, because she was Li Lizhen's personal maid, and there was nothing to do in Huating County, Li Lizhen called her back to help herself, Li Lizhen walked over, and Yingluo behind her was holding a thick stack of account books.
"Lang Jun, this is the family's accounts for the past six months."
Li Li said with a smile, and Li Yong waved his hand.
"I'm worried about the things outside, you can take care of these things."
Li Lizhen, who was personally taught by the eldest grandson, is undoubtedly a little housekeeper, and Li Yong still trusts her ability to take care of the family business, and Li Yong is indeed impatient and has no time to reconcile with the housekeeper and a big shopkeeper, Li Lizhen is very sweet when she listens to it, but she still insists.
"Lang Jun is the head of the family, even if Lang Jun doesn't want to ask about these mundane things, he must know it in his heart!"
Saying that, Li Lizhi took the account and began to talk briefly, Li Yong listened quietly with tea, although Li Yong never asked, but he still knew it.
"That's pretty much it, by the way, and the caravans of Goguryeo are also starting to make a profit, and by the way, there's a letter from Yuangae Suwen here."
