Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Extreme of Benevolence
The state of Yu was recognized by all scholars as the most open dynasty, and Li Huai did not think so at first, isn't this a proper feudal society.
Now that he has seen several old people in Cao Yutang's family, he finally understands a little, his eyes are blank, no matter what happens in the outside world, it seems that it has nothing to do with them.
When they turned around to see Li Huai once, they had to kneel once, and Li Huai didn't know how many times he had helped the second elder, and how many times he said that he didn't need to kneel.
These old men gave him the feeling that they were alive with an empty skin, that their souls had died a long time ago, or that their souls had never existed, and that they had come to the world only to fulfill their obligations as human beings.
In the past, there was a decree that the son inherited the father's business, and the children and grandchildren had to do what the father did.
The Cao family has been supporting boats for generations, and in the previous dynasty, Cao Yutang's father and mother were supporting boats in Weishui.
They don't have a house, they eat, drink and sleep on the boat.
When Cao Yutang was very young, he learned from his father to support the boat, and later Emperor Yu Li Qian entered the main Guanzhong, called the king of Guanzhong, and abolished all the laws and regulations of the past.
Cao Yutang was unwilling to be mediocre, and started building ships behind his parents' backs, endured an unknown number of white eyes, and some people even scolded him for being beheaded.
Laugh at him for being a madman.
Afterward.
Li Gan entered the Central Plains, swept the Eight Wildernesses, established the Dayu State, and the new law was promulgated, and no one laughed at Cao Yutang anymore.
In just over ten years, he has become the largest shipper in Guanzhong, although he is just a civilian merchant without a title, but even if he is slaughtered by Mushen in Guanzhong, he treats him with green eyes, and envy I don't know how many people.
Li Huai tried not to mention his suffering for the time being, so he chatted with their family, in fact, it was him and Cao Yutang who chatted, and the rest would only say: Well! Right, right! Lord Shengming!
Not long after.
Lu Youjia knocked on the door and came in, first brought hot water and towels, and then served dishes and wine.
"Mr. Cao, these are the special orders of the prince to reward Mr. Cao's children's wives and concubines." Lu Youji finally presented a small gift.
It's all candy toys, and soap corners for women.
Li Huai glanced at Lu Youqi approvingly, this guy is quite good at doing things, if he gives him valuable things, it seems that he is fake, and if he sends some useless things, it will seem vulgar, but it is not as good as these small gifts.
The most touching moment of tribulation!
"Thank you, Lord Wang!"
Cao Yutang said with tears in his eyes.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!"
The family members of the Cao family also hurriedly followed and bowed.
"Say goodbye, you should be hungry after such a long journey, come and eat." Li Huai waved his hand and asked Lu Youqi and the others to step back by the way.
It is only when they eat that they show the desire that people should have, perhaps because they have been hungry for too long.
They all gobled up and couldn't stop eating.
Fortunately, the weight prepared by the land gamer is sufficient, otherwise Li Huai will be embarrassed if he doesn't do it well.
After eating.
Li Huai called Lu Youqi in, took the Cao family's family members to rest, arranged housing for them, and prepared hot water for them to bathe.
Li Huai and Cao Yutang were left.
What should be said, it should be said.
Alas!
Cao Yutang sighed, without the previous excitement, and said calmly: "That crazy woman, it is Cha Li's sister, Cha Mu, she is really crazy, she will not let go of anyone who has anything to do with His Royal Highness King Liang." ”
As soon as the news of Cha Li's death reached Xianyang, Cha Mu couldn't stand the blow, fainted for a while, and was woken up by his subordinates.
She actually directly transferred the Zhongfu soldiers, wanting to chase Li Huai halfway to take revenge, but Shen Tuzai found out in time and stopped her.
In this process, Shen Tuzai did two things, stopped Zha Mu to take revenge, and then wrote a note and submitted it to the imperial court.
What is the attitude of the imperial court, it is still unclear, and no news has come.
Zha Mu learned that there was no way to find Li Huai for revenge, so he set his sights on the people who had helped Li Huai.
Cao Yutang once sent Li Huai on a ferry, and although it was allowed by Shen Tuzai, he still became a thorn in her side.
"Shen Slaughter doesn't protect you?" Li Huai interjected and asked, the Yutang shipper is the largest shipmaker in Guanzhong.
Shen Tu should not give up on him.
Cao Yutang cried and laughed, "Of course Lord Shentu doesn't want me to go, but he can't stand his wife, so he has to kill me, that's a madman!" ”
How crazy is it?
Cha Mu not only found Cao Yutang, but also went to Taihua Mountain to ask Wang Chunyang for an explanation.
The scolding is extremely ugly.
Wang Chunyang has been hiding in Taihua Mountain for more than ten years, and his heart does not say that there are no waves in the ancient well, but it is also as still as water.
I couldn't help but smoke a bamboo stick in the air.
Zha Mu suffered a loss in Taihua Mountain, she went to Chang'an City again, but failed to enter the city, so she scolded at the city gate.
Aunt Li Jinglong's eyes narrowed, Hua Qingyue rode the fastest horse, rushed to the city gate, and gave her three slaps with a raised hand.
Princess Chang'an also dared to insult, isn't this looking for a fight.
"Cha Mu has suffered losses in Taihua Mountain and Chang'an, then you will become a punching bag." Li Huai said lightly.
Cao Yutang sighed and nodded, "Yes, she can also bully ordinary people like me." ”
Ultimately.
In order to keep the family, Cao Yutang made a deal with Shen Tu that was not discussed, but both parties acquiesced.
He left the entire Yutang boat merchant behind, took his family, and the old servants who were willing to follow him, and crossed the Yellow River to Liangzhou.
He can only come to Liangzhou.
"It is said that after Cha Mu drove me away, he went to the capital, and he also had a conflict with Zhao Sheng, the Taishou of Sanchuan County, but it seems that he didn't win, so he entered the capital." Cao Yutang ran the boat, and businessmen from all walks of life had his acquaintances.
It's not hard to gossip.
Li Huai raised her eyebrows, she really didn't let anyone go, Zhao Zhiruo had a love for Li Huai.
If she thinks that Zhao Zhiruo is easy to bully, she is very wrong.
Although Zhao Sheng is only a Taishou, he is the Taishou of the first county in the world, and he is also in charge of the military power of Sanchuan.
Defend Kyoto and guard Hamaya.
Emperor Yu's red man Li Gan.
When Zha Mu's husband Shen Tuzai saw Zhao Sheng, he had to smile politely: I have seen General Zhao.
After listening to Cao Yutang's experience, Li Huai called Lu Youqi in, and then said to Cao Yutang: "Brother Cao, I won't tell you, I have just experienced a catastrophe, and I am afraid of making Brother Cao laugh if I say it. ”
Cao Yutang listened quietly.
Li Huai continued: "I'm about to chase him, no one cares about the official dock now, I'm the Taishou, and I'm also a three-headed and six-armed envoy, if Brother Cao can afford it, please stay and help me take care of it for the time being." ”
Cao Yutang was stunned, reacted, walked out of his seat, stood in front of Li Huai's three steps, and knelt down with a thud.
"The minister is willing to serve His Royal Highness King Liang!"
Li Huai immediately got up and helped him up, "I have Brother Cao, I have no worries about the lower officials, and I have wronged Brother Cao to be the governor." ”
Cao Yutang was grateful in his heart, he was a lost dog, and he came to Li Huai to beg for food with a cheeky face, so that the family would not starve.
King Liang didn't think he was down, he lost his family business, so courteous, he gave him enough face between words, and said that the official was asking for help.
Liang Wang Guo is extremely virtuous!
Lu Youqi also breathed a sigh of relief, and finally someone took over, and asked instead, "Lord Wang, are you leaving?" ”
Li Huai nodded, "I'm going to the Great Wall, passing through the clouds by the way, this matter has been discussed with Shangguan and them, this trip is secret, you must not spread the word." ”
"Yes!" Lu Youji nodded, and immediately stopped asking.
Cao Yutang's reaction was half a beat slow, "Obey!" ”
This time I heard the secret, this ...... It's not very good, quickly forget what you just heard, and you can't say a word.
"Brother Cao......"
"Please call the prince by his name, so as not to ......" Cao Yutang didn't finish speaking, just glanced at Lu Youqi.
He is afraid of messing up the etiquette system and gossiping, since he dares to take over this official position, he must have the confidence and ability to do it well.
It was not because King Liang had a friendship with him that he sat on this seat.
"Governor Cao." Li Huai changed his words, "You have just taken office, this king can't personally carry it, if you don't understand, just ask Lu Taishou." ”
Li Huai turned his head and said to Lu Youqi: "Lu Taishou, you complete the handover as soon as possible, Governor Cao has any needs, it can be cheap." ”
"Yes!"
This time they were in unison.
Li Huai finished this trivial matter, the time is not early, if he doesn't set off, he will have to walk at night, of course, walking at night is nothing.
But he still wanted to rush to the Great Wall as soon as possible, and the moment he made his decision, his heart had already flown to the Great Wall.
This is the destiny of his body and mind.
"Let's go!"
