A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

The sky was drizzling, and Gu Qing sent Tang Xuanzang off all the way to the gate of Daning Temple. The place was still as deserted as before, and there were almost no pilgrims like Ganye Temple on the other side of the mountain. The abbot wants to see you."

Originally, Gu Qing didn't want to enter the Daning Temple, so he hesitated a few times and walked into the Daning Temple with a look of infatuated expression, all the way to the main hall to see the abbot here.

"Abbot, long time no see." Gu Qing looked at the old monk in front of him and said.

He stood up from the futon, looked up at Gu Qing with his hunched body, "Benefactor, you have killed too much."

"Do you want to influence me?" Gu Qing helped the abbot out of the hall.

The abbot smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but the benefactor Gu has not changed. I can see the sea of ​​blood behind the benefactor Gu."

"I did kill many, many people." Gu Qing did not deny it.

The abbot went on to say, "Benefactor Gu, you don't have much contact with the old monk. I don't understand it. I believe in a pure nature. Don't go too far on the road of killing."

"I have put my swords and soldiers into the warehouse, and my horse is released on Nanshan Mountain, and I will never leave Chang'an again." Gu Qing also said in a low voice, "Thank you, Abbot, for your warning."

"It's so good, it's so good, it's so good." Fang Zheng nodded and said all the way.

Gu Qing watched the old abbot walk into a small Buddhist temple, and then left Daning Temple.

Fan Jian waited outside Daning Temple, until he saw Gu Qing come out and said, "Patriarch, this Daning Temple is too dilapidated."

"No need to send anything." Gu Qing said, "They will feel uncomfortable if we send something, let's go home."

Fan Jian nodded, the wind was getting stronger and stronger along the way, the drizzle turned into sleet, and the snow particles falling in front of his eyes hurt his face, the cold air made people want to sway, Gu Qing quickened his pace Back home, I saw Gu Xiao standing under the eaves looking at the sky curiously.

"Go into the house, don't freeze." Gu Qing dragged his son into the house, took off his coat and shivered.

"The weather is changing really fast." Wu Mei came with a bowl of hot tea, "Tang Xuanzang sent him away?"

Gu Qing nodded, "He is in Daning Temple now."

"Daning Temple." Wu Mei said in a low voice, "I think my husband lived in Daning Temple for a while before, do you want our family to take care of it?"

"No need, people may not be willing." Gu Qing continued to speak.

"His Royal Highness Jin Wang is still asleep." Wu Mei said, "Yesterday His Royal Highness Jin Wang stayed up all night again, and he was a little too far ahead with the affairs of the Maritime Trade Department."

Gu Qing quietly opened the door of Li Zhi's room. Li Zhi was sleeping on the bed and closed the door and said to Wu Mei, "This kid wants to do something for us to see."

"But it can't be like this." Wu Mei looked a little worried. Although King Jin is a child of the royal family, he has been raised by Gu's parents. After so many years, Wu Mei treats Li Zhi and Xiao Sizi like her younger siblings generally.

"I'll talk to him when I have a chance." Gu Qing nodded, "How is the manpower in the factory?"

"They've all been dispatched." Wu Mei said as she packed up the children's toys, "It's perfume, because the people in the factory don't know how to make it. Although they know the method, they haven't actually done it. I'm afraid that when the time comes Many tests are indispensable in the branch factory."

Gu Qing nodded, "Waguo is an island, and many people of Waguo rely on the sea for their livelihood. If you want to make perfume in large quantities, you still need food to refine alcohol."

Wu Mei continued, "However, the perfume foreman sent by the factory this time is someone who came from Cheng's Winery before. He came here because the wages in our factory are high. He knows that refining alcohol should not be a big problem."

Wu Mei has seen the production of perfume. When she made perfume herself, Wu Mei helped her to do it. In fact, perfume is not difficult to make as long as there is alcohol. Thinking of this, I have to consider that the Gu family’s money flow will be very, very large in the future. Gu Qing still A little apprehensive, such a large amount of running water has to be taken out all at once.

Wu Mei is not worried, the wealth accumulated by the Gu family over the years is comparable to that of the enemy country. It is not difficult for the Gu family to open a branch factory in the country of Japan. Besides, the wages of the people of the country of Japan are very low, and the cost will be much lower. Once you start selling it, the money will come back in a steady stream. Comparing these two things, you don't have to worry about not being able to sell it.

After tidying up, Wu Mei took Gu Xiao to study and read.

the other side of the village

Wu Wang Li Ke came to Li Er's house again, rain mixed with snow particles hit his body, Li Junxian reported and took Li Ke into the noon.

Li Er, with gray temples, sat by the warm brazier and looked at Li Ke, "What are you doing here?"

"I don't understand." Li Ke bowed to Li Er and said, "Brother Huang has already drawn up the decree, why it has been issued all the time, it has been so long."

Li Er smiled disdainfully, "It's hard for you to come to Chang'an so you can get together more with your brothers. Why leave in such a hurry? Is my Chang'an so unworthy of your stay?"

Hearing this, Li Ke stood there for a while without regaining his senses, and said again, "I understand."

"Your mother made red bean porridge, the weather is too cold, wait until the wind and rain subside before leaving, stay and eat." Li Er whispered.

Li Ke stood aside and didn't dare to say anything more. Li Er's words named something. Perhaps Li Chengqian's refusal to issue the order was actually ordered by his father.

Empress Changsun came with a pot of steaming red bean porridge, "This porridge nourishes qi and nourishes blood. The old doctor Sun said that Erlang should eat more."

Li Er nodded and took a bite of the soft red bean porridge, "Your craftsmanship is still so good."

Empress Changsun also gave Li Ke a bowl, "Ke'er, how have you been all these years?"

"Everything is fine." Li Ke took the bowl of red bean porridge respectfully, and also noticed a girl next to Empress Changsun. This girl was about the same age as Li Zhi, but she didn't dress like a maid. Think about it Said, "This is the confidante of the young slave, right?"

"I have seen His Highness King Wu." She saluted slightly.

Empress Changsun nodded in satisfaction and then took her away, leaving room for the father and son.

After eating the hot red bean porridge, the father and son were relatively speechless. After eating for a while, Li Er put down the bowl and looked at the rain scene outside the window, "Look at the wind and rain outside, what do you think of?"

"My son thinks that the weather is like a child's face, and sometimes it doesn't make sense to cry all over the body." Li Ke said.

Li Er shook his head, "Ke'er, you shouldn't think so. You used to be so loyal, why are there so many more cities now? In Jiangdong, what kind of people are there around you?"

Chapter 781 Repentance

Hearing this, Li Ke knelt down on the spot, "I don't know what the emperor means."

"What do I mean?" Li Er looked at the wind and rain outside the house and said again, "What you should think is that now the wind and rain outside the house are precarious, and the common people can stay warm and snuggle with their relatives at home, the elderly enjoy their lives, and the children can To have care, to have a warm home to keep them warm, to keep them out of the wind and rain."

Li Ke was silent.

"Think about what kind of life the common people are living now, do they have a house that can shelter from the wind and rain." Li Er's words brought some vigor, "Instead of thinking about your so-called sky is a child's face now , complain less and be more grateful!"

"My son is wrong."

"Are you aware of your mistake?" Li Eryu raised his voice a bit, "Where did you go wrong?"

Li Ke knelt on the ground and said nothing.

"I have experienced more of you than I have ever seen." Li Er pressed Li Ke and said, "Don't do shameful things behind your back, you are my King Wu, and you bear the blood of Li Tang's royal family! Not only do you have to think about the Liming people in a place, you also have to think about whether your actions will cause disasters for the world, you want to be the second Li You!"

"My son is guilty."

Li Er stared at Li Ke with very serious eyes, "Go back to your Soochow. In the future, you should judge the situation yourself and think about how many people in Chang'an you can't afford to provoke. You are so ostentatious in Chang'an now, you Think they dare not offend you!? That's because you are my son, you are the prince!"

"My son knows!" Li Ke looked flustered.

……

After the rain stopped, Li Ke left Li Er's house in a daze, feeling powerless rising from his heart, no matter what he did, he couldn't escape the palm of his father, no matter how he ran, he couldn't escape Chang An's eyes, The consequence of Li You's actions was that the country expelled him and sent him out. Li Er's words were like thunder, and his face turned pale in retrospect.
