A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Zhang Jie said in a cold sweat: "Then sit next to Mr. Cheng, and I will guide you to start the game."

Cheng Yaojin looked at each part of the car, with curiosity in his disgusted eyes, Zhang Jie sat down and said, "Turn that valve, and press the lower foot on the right pedal."

"Is that so." Cheng Yaojin did as Zhang Jie asked.

After a few twists and turns, the car finally started to shake, and the rear of the car started to emit black smoke.

"You can let go of the pedal, and it can move." Zhang Jie said.

Cheng Yaojin tentatively let go of the pedal, the car started to move slowly, Cheng Yaojin looked around and said excitedly: "This thing really moves."

The car was driving on Suzaku Street, and more and more people were watching.

"Can you hurry up?!" Cheng Yaojin said excitedly, "This is too boring."

"Then just turn that valve." Zhang Jie said.

Cheng Yaojin turned the valve, and as the car shook faster and faster, the car also drove faster and faster, knocking over several shops on the street, and stopped until the car hit the city wall, and the front of the car was also damaged. Crashed.

Zhang Jie got out of the car with some fear.

Cheng Yaojin wanted to start the car again, but the car couldn't move, "Little boy, why doesn't this thing move?"

Zhang Jie explained: "The front of the car is damaged, just take it back to the factory and have it repaired."

Cheng Yaojin just got out of the car, "It's a rare thing, but it smells a little bit stronger, and it's too slow for this car to run so fast."

"That's true." Zhang Jie echoed.

Cheng Yaojin was very satisfied with the car, both Niu's family and Li Xiaogong's family in Chang'an gave one, these two families are much more refined, they didn't start the car as soon as Cheng Yaojin came up, these two families treated it as a car after receiving the car He made rare items and placed them in his own yard, and invited many relatives to show off, not even distant relatives were left behind, and the neighbors next door were not spared.

The excitement of the car could not dissipate in Chang'an for several days.

In Gu Village a few days later, all the cars had been manufactured. Gu Qing was having a meeting with a group of workers in the factory. The factory had produced a total of [-] cars, and these [-] cars were also the first batch to be distributed for use.

These workers will be drivers in the future. Gu Qing divides them into shifts, and everyone has to drive the villagers around Chang'an.

"Master Gu, what if someone refuses to pay?" someone said.

"You don't have to worry about this. When the time comes, there will be a team of two, and I will let Zhang Jie arrange everything." Gu Qing pointed to the map and continued: "Now the road has been repaired, starting from the south gate of Chang'an, there are a total of three roads, every ten vehicles There are two cars on the same road, each traveling twice, every half an hour, from Chenshi in the morning to Shenshi in the afternoon, a total of five hours, there are no lights, so we don’t arrange it at night.”

The first thousand and 110 eight chapters of Li Xiang's chess game

Seeing a group of workers listening to his own words, Gu Qing went on to say, "Your wages are one hundred guan per month." No more than sixty guan." "I will pay you the salary, if you think it is too little, tell me, if you think it is too much, I will pay you voluntarily." After Gu Qing finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Jie, "The next thing I'll leave it to you." "Okay." Zhang Jie nodded and began to arrange everyone's shift.Gu Qing stood beside Yang Sheng and said, "Do you want to take that car too?" "I still don't want to." Yang Sheng waved his hand and said, "But can these people be trusted? What if they ran away in your car? What should I do?" "I can trust it. Besides, this car is not a small item. There is only one car for each shift. If there is an accident, you can find someone. If you run away, you can't run away from the temple." Gu Qing said in a low voice: "I'm most worried What matters is that they don't cause accidents when they are driving." In Li Er's residence, Li Xiangduan sat in front of his grandfather.Looking at his grandson, Li Er said, "Can you play chess?" "Yes, I learned it when I was in the palace." Li Xiang nodded and said.After tidying up the chessboard, Li Er said to Li Xiang: "I don't know how good your chess skills are. I played chess with your teacher a few days ago, but I didn't win a game. I lost in front of your teacher." "Grandpa Huang Let's settle first." Li Xiang said.Seeing Li Xiang's firm expression, Li Er took the lead and said, "It's your turn." Li Xiang quickly responded with a second, the time passed quickly, the sky gradually became cloudy, and the wind became louder and louder.After a few games of chess, Li Xiang said disappointedly: "Grandpa Huang won again, and grandson didn't win a game of chess." "Do you know why you lost?" Li Er whispered. "Grandson's chess skills are not good enough." Li Xiang said. "This is one of them." Li Er whispered to Li Xiang: "After a few games of chess, you can indeed find and keep your own most important position. You blindly focus on your own rear, but you gave me a A chance to break in." "If the rear is unstable, my grandson will still lose." Li Xiang said in a low voice.The house was very quiet, and the heavy rain was falling. Wang Qin hurriedly put away his clothes and said, "Why is it raining again in this damn weather?" Li Er kept observing Li Xiang's expression and said, "Some things even if you lose yourself The stability of the rear should also allow the opponent to have no chance to breathe. The chessboard is only so big, and a few moves between square inches cannot go far. For you, if you think about how to stabilize your situation, you will give your opponent a counterattack Opportunity, if you try your best to control the opponent, then you will not lose this game of chess, and it will be a draw. There are often only a few pieces that play a key role on a huge chessboard, and the discarded pieces on the chessboard There are always more useful chess pieces, and you have to abandon them at critical times." "Grandson understands a little bit." Li Xiang nodded. "Has Gu Qing never taught you these things?" Li Er asked. "The teacher didn't say this. Most of the time, the teacher just let the grandson read books by himself." Li Xiang continued: "But sometimes you can learn a lot by the teacher's side. The teacher's grandson is very satisfied, and the grandson also knows him in the academy A lot of people have been met." Speaking of this, Li Xiang's original immature expression was not what a child of this age should have, and he said in a low voice: "Grandson met many people in the academy, and some grandsons who have lofty ideals have been We are close friends, if the future can be expected, they will be a great help to the grandson." "Many people outside know that although the current crown prince is not in the palace, Gu Qing is the current crown prince's biggest reliance, even if others say so, I I hope you don't rely too much on Gu Qing, there are some things that Gu Qing hates very much." "Grandson understands that after becoming the throne, grandson will give the Gu family a reward in return, but grandson will never have any contact with Gu Qing again." Li Xiang said.Only then did Li Er nodded in satisfaction, "You have the confidence to say this, but it depends on whether you have the ability to ascend the throne." Li Xiang said a little unconvinced: "Grandpa, let's play another game of chess." Wang Qin stood aside , picked up the boiling tea from the clay stove and poured hot tea for the children and grandchildren.After another game of chess, the rain changed from heavy rain to continuous drizzle. Li Xiang looked at Li Er and said, "Grandpa, the grandson won this time." Li Er nodded and said, "If you are an emperor, you are doomed to be lonely. Are you still willing to be the emperor?" "The grandson has no choice but to retire. If the grandson is given up to others as the prince, it will be a waste of the teaching of the teacher and grandpa, and he will also live up to the expectations of the mother. Even if he arrives Even if he becomes the person he hates the most when he grows up, his grandson will not shrink back, he must let his father know that his contempt for his grandson now will be his biggest regret in the future." Li Er Smiling satisfied, "It's getting late, let's go back." "Grandson will leave first." Li Xiang got up and left.After Li Xiang left, Empress Changsun came to Li Er's side, heard the previous conversation clearly and whispered: "Erlang, will this be too cruel for the other party?" "It's better to be cruel now, but now he If he doesn't experience cruelty, his kindness will harm himself when he grows up." Li Er said while drinking tea.Empress Changsun looked worriedly at Li Xiang's weak back submerged in the rain.Leaving Li Er's residence, Li Xiang returned to Gu's house, looked at Gu Xiao and asked in a low voice, "Brother Gu Xiao, how much did you earn today?" "Not much." Gu Xiao didn't bother. said lift.Li Xiang came to the study, put aside the psychology that Gu Xiao gave to him, and looked at the book written by Gu Qing himself, thinking that it must be important for Gu Qing to write these things down, if these things were written by Gu Qing for his own affairs It is written, which shows the importance of the content. Li Xiang looked at the complicated and unfamiliar names in the book and read the contents of the book.Li Xiang concentrated on reading the book in the study and didn't notice that Gu Qing had been standing outside the door for a long time. When he came back to his senses, he looked up and saw Gu Qing standing at the door of the study, startled. "Do you understand?" Gu Qing asked in a low voice.This question seems to have been asked to myself many times, do you understand?Li Xiang raised his head and looked at Gu Qing: "Teacher, I don't understand, but I want to learn what the teacher wrote, and I want to understand." Important things, do you still have to understand them?" If you like Datang Zhenguan Yi Scholar, please collect it: Datang Zhenguan Yi Scholar.

The first thousand and 110 nine chapters can not change the majority

"The teacher will not think about doing useless things. It must be useful for the teacher to write down these things." Li Xiang said. "What a stubborn boy." Gu Qing touched Li Xiang's small forehead and said: "The chapter you are reading now mainly talks about two social changes. There is a system called the cabinet system, which is also the prototype of the voting system. It is owned by the emperor. Power can dominate the world, but power is layered, from top to bottom, down to the people and up to the sky, everyone speaks differently." Li Xiang listened attentively to Gu Qing.Unknowingly it was time to eat, Wu Mei knocked on the door of the study and said: "It's time to eat, are you still talking?" " "good. "Li Xiang nodded vigorously. After eating, Gu Qing sat in his courtyard, Wu Mei sat beside him and said: "Your bus will start tomorrow? " "Yes, after several months of tossing, it is finally coming to fruition. "Gu Qing whispered. "Do you feel that Li Xiang is a little different recently. " "really. Gu Qing also nodded and said: "Li Xiang is a member of the royal family after all. Even though he lives in our Gu family, he will leave us and return to the palace in the future. It is not destined, but he just wants to take this path." ""You don't want him to be the emperor, do you think he can grow up carefree, just like King Jin and little Sizi. "Wu Mei said. "In the beginning, I really thought so. In the future, I can give him a career without worrying about food and clothing, and make him like King Jin. But he is a prince. Now I wonder if some people want To let him go this way, Li Shimin hoped that Li Xiang would be the emperor, so he would make arrangements for Li Xiang. Maybe it was Li Shimin who arranged for Li Chengqian to come to the village to see me that day. After more than ten years in Chang'an, I became more and more I can't see through Li Shimin anymore. Gu Qing stretched out his hand to the starry sky, "It's like no matter how I escape, I can't escape Li Shimin's Wuzhishan. My self-righteousness is just a drop in the bucket to Li Shimin. He never cares. What he really cares about is to control me and make me Squeeze in the palm of his hand. "Wu Mei could hear the meaning in Gu Qing's words. After following Gu Qing all these years, I really looked back and thought about it. It was okay from the time when Gu Qing first became famous in Chang'an, but when Gu Qing fought in Liangzhou After getting out of the firearm, Li Shimin began to use his actions to tame Gu Qing, wanting to train Gu Qing to be a subject to him, maybe it was because of Li Shimin's imprisoning Gu Qing in Dali Temple for half a year to tame Gu Qing. After reading all kinds of deeds, perhaps Li Shimin stopped probing because he was afraid of arousing Gu Qing's rebellious heart. He was also secretly investigating Gu Qing's life experience, and also investigating Gu Qing's origin. The investigation lasted for several years, and there was no result for several years. Gu Qing made many contributions to Datang, and Li Shimin saw it all. After taming Gu Qing, he began to try to master Gu Qing. For Li Shimin, the whole Chang'an was his chess game, and the whole world was a pond in his eyes. Except for the influence of the five surnames on Guanzhong, it cannot be said that Gu Qing was used by Li Shimin, but Gu Qing had to do what he wanted and followed Li Shimin's wishes, acquiescing to Gu Qing's actions. The popularity gained made Li Shimin pay more and more attention to Gu Qing. The two days and two nights in the Daming Palace were tense, and no one knew what Gu Qing and Li Shimin had said between them, but after that night, Gu Qing could no longer leave Chang'an. , I can’t do it in this life, but Li Shimin gave the Gu family a supreme honor. He gave Gu Qing the status of being under one person and above ten thousand people, and gave the Gu family the youngest Duke of the Tang Dynasty. Wu Mei thought to herself: "After a hundred years, the Gu family will be the most powerful person in the Tang Dynasty, right? Li Shimin gave our family the beauty, but he also gave you a lifetime of imprisonment. " "yes. "Gu Qingchang sighed and said: "There has never been a perfect thing in this world. Li Shimin never thought of letting me go. When I was only one step away, I was tempted, but I dare not take this step. I always have a bottom line in my heart telling me that I can't do this. If I do this, I will never have friends and relatives in my life. . " "Now I am very content. "Wu Mei said in a low voice. "He has already done his calculations. He has calculated what I think clearly. I am afraid that if I stay in the court, I will really take that step. I will not be able to control myself. Just like Changsun Wuji and I have been fighting for so many years. At the end of the day, look at it. Neither he nor I have won. Looking at the mess all over the floor, neither Changsun Wuji nor I have benefited. The winner has already been determined, Li Shimin It is the referee between me and my grandson Wuji. He has the final say on who he wants to win. He doesn’t want anyone to win. Neither I nor Changsun Wuji can win. This is how this era is. The emperor often controls the fate of many people. . " "At least you have worked hard, you have also struggled, you can't change the majority, you can't change this era." "Wu Mei looked at Gu Qing and said: "Although our generation is not good enough, there are still younger generations, and there are so many students in the academy. I have never really seen the utopia in your heart, but I can imagine that there will be people in the era you mentioned. how beautiful. " On the second day, Gu Qing slept until noon, and Fan Jian walked up to him and said, "Patriarch, there is news from Jiangnan that something happened to Xie's family. " "What happened? "Gu Qing said while eating. "The Xie family was in turmoil. The eldest son of the Xie family killed the second son of the Xie family. The entire Xie family was in chaos. It's messed up. ""This is not good news. It would not be a good thing for us if the Xie family eradicates dissidents and there will be peace. Gu Qing put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands and said to Fan Jian: "Is the body of the Xie family son who was intercepted back then still there?" "" Dali Temple has been buried. "Fan Jian said in a low voice. Gu Qing stood up, washed his face and ordered Fan Jian: "Find some nimble guys, dig out the corpses for me, and send them to the gate of Xie's house in Jiangnan. Gu Qing let their souls return to their homeland, allowing them to rest in peace. " Listening to Gu Qing's home, Fan Jian smiled: "Understood. "I want the people of the Xie family in Jiangnan to know that I, Gu Qing, have been watching them all the time. The Xie family killed their own children, and their bones are still cold. It is not over until the mastermind behind the scenes is found." "Fan Jian looked at Gu Qing's face and bowed and said, "Let's make arrangements now.

The first thousand and 120 chapters talk with old friends

Li Chengqian also received the news from Wang Jin that the Xie family in Jiangnan was in civil turmoil. Looking at Wang Jin, he said in a low voice, "I want to hurry to Jiangnan according to my order. The Xie family wants to settle the matter before the Chang'an officials arrive in Jiangnan." It's settled." Wang Jin went on to say, "There is one more thing, which is the movement of the Gu family." "Speak." Li Chengqian said with a frown.Wang Jin went on to speak: "The Xie family children who were intercepted before have been buried in Dali Temple, and now Gu Qing has sent people to dig out those corpses. It seems that people have left with the corpses and headed to the south of the Yangtze River , after inquiring about it, it is said that the soul should return to Jiangnan." Hearing this news, Li Chengqian kept a gloomy face and said nothing. "Your Majesty, is there something wrong with this?" Wang Jin said again.Li Chengqian looked back at the memorial and said in a low voice: "Actually, Gu Qing and I think the same thing. We know that the Xie family's civil strife is not a good thing for us. If the Xie family uses this to eradicate dissidents and clean up the tail again, The officials who are sent out may not be able to do so. Xie’s family must have already opened up with some officials in the south of the Yangtze River if they dare to do this at this time. They have been integrated, and when the time comes, the Xie family in the south of the Yangtze River will be monolithic again." Wang Jin said: "The old slave means that Dali Temple made its own decision to let the people of the Gu family take away the corpse. Did Gu Qing go beyond that?" "Just let it go." Let Gu Qing do this, it sounds good to say that his soul will return to Jiangnan, and it’s not good for me to stop it, and besides, the real culprit who intercepted and killed those Xie family children has not been found out, so it should be Di Renjie’s idea." Li Chengqian said in a low voice: "Di Renjie has been doing a good job in managing Dali Temple. I don't want to doubt a minister who is capable of doing things. Do you understand? You can retire after calling Chu Suiliang." "Excuse me for talking too much." Wang Jin bowed and stepped back.Half an hour later, Chu Suiliang came to Li Chengqian to salute, "Your Majesty." "Xue Rengui is still training in the Hexi Corridor?" Li Chengqian asked. "Yes." Chu Suiliang nodded and said, "The Ministry of War will report every ten days. Now General Xue Rengui is practicing a new method of warfare, a method of warfare that combines firearms." Li Chengqian nodded slightly, "What's going on in Tubo these days "Now all the ministries in Tubo are still safe and sound. Rome stopped after Dashi and has not moved for a while. The whole Tubo is preparing. Once Persia is destroyed, it will move to the border east of Tubo. " "Let Xue Rengui walk out of the Hexi Corridor and go to Tubo first, what do you think?" Li Chengqian said.Chu Suiliang thought for a while and said, "Tubo doesn't know about Xue Rengui's military training in the Hexi Corridor, and even fewer people in Chang'an know about it. This large army is prepared for the Western Expedition. If it is sent to the West at this time, it will be inevitable." It will make Tianzhu and Persia jealous." "Then let me ask you again, once Rome and Dashi unite, how long will it take to break through Persia and fight all the way to Tianzhu and Tubo." Li Chengqian continued. "Ten days at the fastest, half a month at the slowest." "Let Xue Rengui's army approach Tubo. Once there is a change in Persia, Xue Rengui will immediately lead his troops into Tubo. I don't want Tubo to be lost like this." Li Chengqian whispered. "I understand." Chu Suiliang heaved a sigh of relief after leaving the Ganlu Palace. Li Chengqian was still a little anxious. The Maritime Trade Department said it would take two months, but now only forty days have passed. For the layout of this Western Expedition It's not too long, and I don't know what happened to Yan Liben in the East China Sea, whether he can send troops to the South China Sea.Thinking of Chu Suiliang leaving Chang'an and coming to the Maritime Trade Department. "I have seen the order of Zhongshu." Li Zhi said when he saw Chu Suiliang and saluted. "I have seen His Royal Highness King Jin." Chu Suiliang also returned the gift and said, "It is okay to return to the Maritime Trade Department in the near future." "Everything is stable." Li Zhi invited Chu Suiliang to sit in the Maritime Trade Department. Are you here for the court affairs?" "Yes." Chu Suiliang nodded. "Tell me, what's the situation?" Li Zhi asked. "Today, His Majesty summoned the officials and said that Xue Rengui is going to leave the Hexi Corridor and march towards Tubo with his troops." After Chu Suiliang finished speaking, Li Zhi thought about it and said, "Is the situation so tense now?" The situation is still unknown, and the Tibetan Protectorate has been paying attention to the situation west of Persia. I think His Majesty is a little anxious. " Chu Suiliang said. "But it's also my fault that the Maritime Trade Department is slow. " Li Zhi poured a bowl of wine for Chu Suiliang himself and said. "Thank you, Your Highness King Jin. " Chu Suiliang took a sip of the wine and praised, "It really is good wine, and the taste of this wine is better than Cheng's strong wine. " "This is the wine brewed by the teacher himself." Li Zhi said again: "I also ask Zhong Shuling to buy some time for the Maritime Trade Department." "No, no, no, His Royal Highness King Jin must not say that." "Chu Suiliang quickly explained: "In fact, this time the Tang Dynasty just needs to take it easy and wait for work. Even if Rome captures Dashi, Persia, and Tianzhu, the preparations made by the DPRK and China for this Western Expedition are to Swallowing Persia and Tianzhu in one go, the fire is still too young, what we want is that the entire trade route will be broken and established, and it will be completely controlled by me in the Central Plains. " Chu Suiliang looked at the busy Maritime Trade Department and said: "Your Majesty is anxious to make achievements, and what you want is nothing more than a reputation. We can't fight this battle in a hurry. Li Zhi also nodded: "So Zhong Shuling thinks that the best time to send troops is after Tianzhu and Persia are eaten by Rome, and then Datang will attack again?" ""That's right, only in this way can we really get the most benefits from this expedition to the Tang Dynasty." Chu Suiliang also nodded. Li Zhipu spread out a huge map and said: "This is the map from the Central Plains to Tubo. Where is the best position for Xue Rengui's army to move to?" Chu Suiliang also looked at the map and pointed to a lake and said, "This is the best location." Li Zhi also nodded: "I heard from Gu Qing that there was a very beautiful lake in Tubo back then. "" At that time, we will have to discuss it with Shangguanyi and Pei Xingjian. "Chu Suiliang nodded. Li Zhi said: "Now our engines have also been sent to the East China Sea, and our fleet has also explored the South China Sea. The fleet is about to set off to Tianzhu, and we will wait for the movement of Rome. " "Well, let's watch the movement in Rome together. "Chu Suiliang also nodded and said.

Xu Jingzong looked at Chu Suiliang who was chatting with Li Zhi from a distance and asked Li Yifu beside him, "Why did Chu Suiliang come to the Maritime Trade Department?" Busy with the matter at hand.Seeing that Chu Suiliang was about to leave, Xu Jingzong said, "I'll go say hello." As he was leaving the Department of Maritime Trade, Chu Suiliang saw Xu Jingzong with a smile and said, "Long time no see." "How have you been recently?" Xu Jingzong Said to Chu Suiliang. "It's okay, you know the affairs of the imperial court, it won't be too easy, sometimes you are busy day and night." Chu Suiliang looked at Xu Jingzong and said: "After leaving the imperial court, I actually felt very sorry. "I am very satisfied that a person like me can be a minister in the court. I know how much I can do." Xu Jingzong walked with Chu Suiliang all the way. "When you left the court, did you blame Li Chengqian or Gu Qing?" Xu Jingzong said in a low voice: "At first I was really not convinced, but after thinking about it, what can I do? After all, I am just one of the big men. If they want me to leave, can I stay? Can I control the grievances between Lord Hou and Changsun Wuji? I have never hated Li Chengqian, nor have I hated Gu Qing, otherwise I would not have stayed here. The Maritime Trade Department will not stay in Chang'an anymore. In fact, Master Gu has always been very good to me, and the Maritime Trade Department is also good." "Back then, I thought that I could be an extremely human minister, but so what? I know how involuntary some things are, and now I am very good at the Maritime Trade Department, and I like this place very much." Chu Suiliang patted Xu Jingzong on the shoulder and said: "We have worked together for several years, and sometimes I still feel in a daze. I thought you were in the Shangshu Province, but now I see that the Shangshu Province has lost a person who is obedient and good at observing words and demeanor." "Now that Pei Xingjian is the Minister of Shangshu, he must be able to do better than me." Xu Jingzong said.Chu Suiliang nodded, "Don't blame yourself for being cold-hearted. I have always seen you running around for the affairs of the court all those years, and you handled many things for the court. Unfortunately, you are notorious for leaving this time." "I don't care anymore." Xu Jingzong sighed and said, "It's all right to be famous, think about what you want to live for the rest of your life, face intrigues in the court, and look at the emperor's face in the court, even if you have The power over [-] people is only given by the emperor when he is in a good mood. I feel a little scared after thinking about it. That kind of life is not what I, Xu Jingzong, want to live. I envy Gu Qing. He saw through it earlier than me. If I had him With my heart, maybe I will earn a little money to buy a house and live happily ever after." Xu Jingzong said to Chu Suiliang: "You are not from a wealthy family, you have no influence behind you, the royal family is not completely trustworthy, don't rely too much on Li Chengqian , give yourself a way out, don't put your life in the hands of others in this world." "I will keep your words in my heart, so you should cherish yourself." Chu Suiliang left after speaking.Seeing Chu Suiliang leave, Li Yifu stepped forward and said, "What are you talking about?" : "It's already the court that will never be hired. There is no hope in this life. Now even if Li Chengqian invites me in person, he will not go." "It depends on your air." Li Yifu smiled.The Gu family, Gu Qing is busy opening the lid of the pot in the kitchen, and the red bean cake is almost cooked. After a taste, it is not sweet enough. Sprinkle some sprinkles on it and eat it much better. After decorating all the red beans, I handed it to Fan Jian and said: "Send these pastries to my father-in-law." "Yes." Fan Jian hurriedly left with the pastries.In the study room, Li Xiang has been reading all this time, Gu Xiao ate the leftover red bean cake and said, "Why is Li Xiang always sitting in the study room and reading recently?" "Take him out for a walk and help you do some things." Gu Qing said. "I've done everything I can do today." Gu Xiao fed the red bean cake to Gu Ling, the youngest brother beside him. "You can't just stay at home reading all the time, it's better to go outside to experience some things." Gu Qing said to Gu Xiao: "During this period of time, I took Li Xiang out to do business, and let Li Xiang go to work. I have to go out, even if he If you want to be an emperor, you must know the life of the people." "There are some things to do." Gu Xiao stood up and shouted to Li Xiang who was in the study: "Li Xiang, we are going to do business." "Come on." Li Xiang Xiang hurried out of the study. "Suddenly it occurred to me that some business recently asked me to go there in person." Gu Xiao said and took Li Xiang out.After the people left, Zhang Yugong came to Gu Qing's side, "Patriarch, our people have also been sent to Jiangnan, and we can reach Jiangnan within three days along the waterway." "After arriving in Jiangnan, we can find Sister Yue. Is it?" Gu Qing asked. "I'm sure, Sister Yue's people are not hard to find, and the rangers sent out are relatively famous and you can find them by asking around." Gu Qing said in a low voice: "I have always wondered what Sister Yue is doing in Jiangnan?" "I can't figure it out either, maybe it has something to do with Hong Fu girl's old affairs." Zhang Yugong said in a low voice: "Sister Yue has nothing to do with Jiangnan, if she must go to Jiangnan this time, it may be because of someone else's arrangement There are only two people who can arrange for Sister Yue. One is Li Shimin's wife, Empress Changsun, and the other is Hong Funu, who should not be Empress Changsun. Some of the many heroes in Erxian Village were from Jiangnan." "Is it reliable to send someone out?" "It's reliable, it's the old man who followed us back then, and went through life and death with us on the battlefield." Gu Qing avoided the sunlight coming in from the window, and the current sunlight made people feel a little hot, and then said: "Our purpose is very simple. You Xia set up eyeliner near the Jiangnan waterway, don't let people from the four Jiangnan families set foot in the waterway, you don't have to pursue other matters, as for the Jiangnan Xie family's affairs, you don't have to worry about it, Fan Jian's people will arrange it." "Yes!" Zhang Yu Gong bowed and nodded. "During this time, you and Fan Jian will follow Gu Xiao." Gu Qing said.Zhang Yugong walked out of Gu's house, thinking that now the head of the family has given Fan Jian to Gu Xiao and himself to Gu Xiao, looking back at the door of Gu's house, it seems that the time for Gu Houye to retire is not far away. It may take decades to reach this point from struggle to glory, but for Gu Qing, it is only a few short years, and these years have passed too fast. Get out of the sight of many people.After thinking about these things, Zhang Yugong looked at the backs of Gu Xiao and Li Xiang and followed them.

After a bad night of sleep, Gu Qing sat up from the bed, and Wu Mei asked in a low voice, "Did you have a nightmare? Cold sweat all over your head." "Well, a very strange nightmare." Gu Qing didn't dare to wake up from the bed. Then whoever, in the dream, all his efforts were in vain, the Central Plains was full of wars, and the people were devastated. The Central Plains did not become better, but entered an existence like Shura Hell.It was still dark, and the sky was drizzling, and the sky and the earth seemed to be covered with a thick fog.In the quiet home, Fan Jian just woke up and saw Gu Qing whispering: "The owner got up really early today." "I didn't sleep well, I'll go for a walk, you don't have to follow me." After Gu Qing finished speaking, he walked out of his house, When I walked outside the house, the sky was still gloomy and the village was very quiet. I don't know what happened, and I walked out of the village unknowingly and came to the outside of Daning Temple. Looking at this small temple, I may feel a little more peaceful in my heart. "Benefactor Gu." Tang Xuanzang's voice awakened Gu Qing's thoughts, Gu Qing looked at Tang Xuanzang and whispered, "You are still here." "Yes." Tang Xuanzang said in a low voice: "You seem to have something on your mind." The voice of the voice Very low, as if he was afraid of disturbing the creatures who hadn’t woken up in the morning, Gu Qing said: "I had a nightmare, dreaming that the Central Plains was full of wars, there was a sea of ​​blood under my feet, and a rain of blood was constantly falling on my head." Listen After Gu Qing finished talking about his dream, Tang Xuanzang stood quietly. "I have always wondered whether everything I did was right or wrong. I was really afraid that the future would be what I dreamed of. It is ridiculous to say that I have a bad name. Many people say that I am a People who kill people without blinking an eye, I also have something to be afraid of, I am really afraid of the future." Gu Qing whispered. "What's so scary about the future? If the future really happens, what can we do but face it?" Tang Xuanzang then asked.Gu Qing knew that Tang Xuanzang had misinterpreted his meaning, and what's the point of dismantling it, the trajectory took a big turn for him, and now everything is a little fortunate and more worried, and then said: "Tang Xuanzang, do you know? I am full of confidence in many things, because I know what others don't know, and I can stand in front of many people, but now that I think about it, everything I face is different from what I know." "What's the difference?" .” Tang Xuanzang asked again. "In your words, it is a kind of variable. I can no longer predict this variable. I am afraid of what I will bring to this era." Gu Qing said. "Everyone has to bear their own karma, and everyone has to bear their own sins." "I really hate what you say." Gu Qing walked into Daning Temple and saw Bu Chi sitting in front of the Buddha and chanting Buddhist scriptures.Looking at the Buddha statue in front of him, Gu Qing said: "No Chi, you are more and more like the old abbot." "Listening to Gu Benefactor's voice seems to be a little uneasy?" Bu Chi said with his back to Gu Qing. "I never knew whether everything I did was appropriate or not." Gu Qing bowed slightly to the Buddha statue.Bu Chi said: "Benefactor Gu, do you know what scripture the poor monk just recited?" "I'm not interested in Buddhist scriptures." Gu Qing said.Bu smiled and said: "What the poor monk recites is the Shurangama Sutra that must be recited in the morning class every day. Among them, it talks about dispelling confusion and seeing the truth. Everything in the world can be broken and established. In a word In other words, it is the establishment, not Ruo Er, Ruo San, let alone Ruo Wu, it is a city of transformation, not a treasure house." "Sorry, I don't understand." Gu Qing shook his head.Bu Chi stood up and faced Gu Qing with a smile and said: "There are right and wrong things in this world, but some things are hard to distinguish between right and wrong. You killed a wicked person and saved a good person. Are you doing a good deed? You still killed a person, but if you don’t kill the villain, and the villain kills the good person, are you doing the right thing? This is actually a paradox, throwing away this paradox, the rest is to establish, what you do will give you What has been established between what I have done and what others have done." Gu Qing smiled wryly and said: "I am a little confused." "Tell me about the old abbot who left Chang'an and asked me to go out to practice." Buchi said in a low voice: "At the beginning I I was wandering alone, and I rescued a lamb that was about to be eaten by wolves. Afterwards, the lamb became someone else’s meal. Thinking carefully about whether I saved it or not, it would become food. What's the use, I regret that I would rather not save it." "Regret, time will not turn back, I regret what I did, I started to chant Buddhist scriptures for that lamb to save it, I know I have done it I can't change the next thing, and then I ate all the leftover meat of that lamb." "Is it true?" Gu Qing asked.Bu Chi looked at the Buddha statue again and said: "This incident is true, I experienced it myself, and it is still unforgettable to this day. Everything in the world can be broken and established. In a word, it is established! Right and wrong are human beings. It’s up to you to tell the difference, now Gu Benefactor feels that everything he’s doing is right or wrong.” “You have changed a lot, the little monk back then would just follow behind me, but he wouldn’t talk about these things.” Gu Qing stared at Buzhi’s face . "Gu Shizhu, I don't know where you came from, I don't know what you have experienced before, but you can't regret every step you take when you come to this world. Even if you have to bear the bitter fruit brought by yourself in the future, Gu Shizhu will not escape , Just like today’s poor monk, if I hadn’t experienced the incident with the lamb, I might not be able to understand the words the old abbot left for me. This situation will change." After listening to his words, Gu Qing said: "I also believed that as long as my heart is worthy of heaven and earth, it will be fine, but I am just a cheater, and that nightmare is too terrible for me. It destroyed everything I built, it destroyed everything I have." "Actually, the answer lies in Gu Benefactor's heart, if there is such a day, what will Gu Benevolent do?" Bu Chi asked. "I will protect everything I have built." "That's all right, do you have any doubts, benefactor Gu?" Bu Chi said. "Farewell." Gu Qing turned and left Daning Temple.Tang Xuanzang watched Gu Qing leave and asked Buchi, "What kind of person is Gu Qing? I always feel that Gu Qing carries a secret." "The poor monk feels the same way." Buchi said to Tang Xuanzang. "Do you think this secret has something to do with Gu Qing's nightmare and the future?" Tang Xuanzang continued to ask.Don't be obsessed with the Buddha's name and whispered: "What does it have to do with you and me? Don't be obsessed with some secrets. If Gu Qing doesn't tell you, you won't be able to understand it no matter how you think about it."

"It seems that my feeling is correct." Tang Xuanzang said to himself. "The poor monk still said that, don't pursue it any further, no matter what the secret Gu Qing is carrying." Bu Chi looked at Tang Xuanzang solemnly and said: "Perhaps you are not the only one who discovered this secret, and many people may have suspected it. Many people have asked Gu Qing, even Li Shimin!" "Perhaps it is because of this secret that Gu Qing is so disturbed, I remember when I saw Gu Qing for the first time, his eyes have never been so disturbed." Tang Xuanzang said talk. "Everyone has this kind of time. Gu Qing is a mortal, an ordinary person, that's all." Leaving Daning Temple, the sun still didn't shine on the earth, and the rain curtain formed by the rain still fell profusely. Walking outside the village, I saw a figure burning something. When I got closer, I saw that it was Li Chunfeng. In front of him was a spiritual tablet with the words Yuan Tiangang written on it.The flame burns very slowly under the drizzle, and when the wind blows, it will take away some unburned paper money and mix it with sparks in the rain. "Is he really dead?" Gu Qing whispered.Li Chunfeng looked back at Gu Qing and said, "Why are you here?" "I saw you when I walked around." Gu Qing said, "Do you pay homage to him like this on weekdays?" "Once a year, Yuan Tiangang has no descendants. Thinking that I came to pay homage to him, I have received his guidance before I come down, and I have learned a lot from him, and someone will always remember it." Li Chunfeng said. "Is he really dead?" Gu Qing asked again.Looking at the spiritual seat Yuan Tiangang said: "I watched him pass away, and I watched him be buried with my own eyes." "I have met some people and heard about some things. Many times I wonder if he is still alive." Gu Qing went on Said. "Gu Qing, he is already dead. No matter what people say, I will see his burial place with my own eyes." Li Chunfeng continued to burn the paper money, "I also heard some things from him when he was alive. Things, Yuan Tiangang has experienced far more things than I do, he has seen many, many things, but most of the time he just keeps talking about some things, and he doesn’t tell me about many things.” “Longevity?” “Yes. "Li Chunfeng continued: "He also traveled to many places in search of longevity. I don't know why he gave up starting the game later. "Because what made him give up?" " "have no idea? Li Chunfeng looked down at the burning paper money, "I just remember the fear and anxiety in his eyes every time he talked about this reason, Gu Qing, do you think a person is still a person if he lives forever? Knelt down and Gu Qing helped him burn the paper money, "Whether he is dead or not, in your heart he is already dead." " "Um. " Li Chunfeng nodded. After a long time, Li Chunfeng stood up: "Okay, I'm back to the academy. Seeing Li Chunfeng leaving with the spiritual tablet, the paper money hadn't burned out yet, the rain was getting heavier, and it was getting cold on his body, so he followed Li Chunfeng's footsteps and asked: "What did Yuan Tiangang teach you. ""Astrology, Liuren, geomancy, many, many." "Li Chunfeng walked all the way and said: "The knowledge is very vague and elusive. It is different from your knowledge. Your algorithms and formulas are very intuitive, just like the physics you said at the beginning. Let’s get straight to the point, but things like astrology, Liuren, and geomancy are very hazy, not as easy to learn as you. " "But your stuff is very useful and a great inspiration to me. " After Li Chunfeng finished speaking, he came to the back door outside the academy, and said to Gu Qing: "I'm going back, would you like to come to the academy for a while. " "I won't go in, I'll go home." " "good. "After Li Chunfeng finished speaking, he walked into the back door of the academy. Gu Qing was walking alone in the village, and many villagers had already gotten up early to start working. you. "" No, the old man is old, and it's good to move his body. "Fang Xuanling was talking. Gu Qing was still helping Fang Xuanling remove the miscellaneous vegetables in the vegetable garden. Mrs. Fang came out with a bowl of porridge and saw Gu Qing here with a kind eyebrow and said with a smile: "Gu Qing, come here La. " "I passed by and saw the teacher weeding these weeds and thought of coming over to help." Mrs. Fang handed the porridge to Fang Xuanling and said, "I must not have eaten it yet. I'll bring another bowl of porridge." " "Thank you, Mrs. " Except for a while, Gu Qing took the porridge brought by Mrs. Fang and sat by the vegetable garden with Fang Xuanling to eat the porridge. "It's rare to see you go out so early. "Fang Xuanling took off the bamboo hat and sat under the thatched hut drinking porridge and said. "I didn't sleep well, so I just wanted to take a few steps to relax. "Gu Qing is also drinking porridge. The porridge is vegetable porridge with some egg whites and egg yolks. The porridge is very thick, and it is very comfortable to eat warm. Fang Xuanling put the bowl aside after drinking the porridge and said, looking at the vegetable garden in the rain : "It's raining, and how many weeds will emerge. I haven't planted it for many years, and now it's a bit difficult to pick up a hoe. " "Or don't plant it." "Gu Qing said. Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "To be an ordinary person, you must look like an ordinary person. When you are old, you usually have nothing to do, so you just point to farming to relieve boredom. " "That's right, it's good to be self-sufficient." Gu Qing nodded. "After the chess player left that day, what did His Majesty tell you?" "Fang Xuanling seemed to lower his voice on purpose. "He, he still tried to test me in the same way. After all these years, he used me while guarding against me. "Fang Xuanling smiled, "Your Majesty is such a person, he will not trust a person easily, especially a person like you with unknown background and some unpredictable abilities, he needs to be on guard. "According to what the teacher said, I am lucky to have survived till now?" "Gu Qing said. "It was you who saved yourself. In fact, His Majesty wanted to get rid of you a long time ago. Sometimes you are a little confused, but His Majesty wants to keep you. He must have told you that as long as If you are loyal to Datang, he will give you prosperity and wealth for the rest of your life. ""That's right. Fang Xuanling went on to say: "That's right, he is not only guarding against you, he is already jealous of you. Thinking about it, it should have reached this point. When you were the prime minister, if there was any move to usurp the throne , maybe you are already dead. " Hearing this, Gu Qing stopped drinking the porridge, and felt a chill down his spine, "What does the teacher mean by this? ""When he appointed you as prime minister, allowing you to be in charge of the government, then he was going to kill you. How big of a heart does Li Shimin have to tolerate a powerful minister's power over the government? "Then why didn't he kill me again?" " "Because you are lazy." "Fang Xuanling let out a long sigh. Gu Qing: "..." The correct chapters of "The First Scholar of Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty" will continue to be updated on Novels.com, and there are no advertisements on the site. Everyone's collection: Datang Zhenguan No. [-] Scholar.

The first thousand and 120 chapters and four opponents' names

Fang Xuanling smiled and patted Gu Qing on the shoulder, "But don't worry, you are very popular in Chang'an, even if Li Shimin really wants to kill you, many people will come out to stop you, not to mention how many juniors in Chang'an have a good relationship with you, yes Qin Qiong brought you into Chang'an. Li Jing is a moral person. You have cured his leg disease and he will not watch you die. You saved the Empress Changsun in Jiucheng Palace, and you are the disciple of this old man. , You and Cheng Yaojin are old friends." Gu Qing smiled bitterly and said, "I am not old friends with Cheng Yaojin, that old guy has taken advantage of my business." "People in Chang'an can understand, you Gu Qing What kind of person is he?" Fang Xuanling raised the hoe again and said, "If Li Shimin kills you, he will lose a lot of hearts, so before he kills you, Li Shimin will carefully weigh your weight." Listen I was in a cold sweat, if it wasn't for what I said to the teacher today, I really don't know how many times I have been under Li Shimin's sword.After drinking the porridge, Gu Qing helped Fang Xuanling remove the miscellaneous vegetables in the vegetable garden, and went home excitedly. After walking around, he felt a lot more relaxed. It's hard to tell, no matter what the future looks like, I can only face it.As soon as he walked to the door of his house, he saw Li Xiang and Gu Xiao looking at Gu Xue who was beside him.The atmosphere is not quite right. Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the academy has also started to recruit a new batch of students this year. Gu Xue's name has already been placed in the academy, and it is time to go to class today. "I'm not going to the academy!" Gu Xue said stubbornly. "Why don't you want to go to the academy?" Gu Qing looked at Gu Xue and said.Gu Xue raised her head and looked at Gu Qing, "My child can learn things with Grandpa Shigong. I like medical skills." "The academy also needs a Princess Jinyang. She is the best student of Grandpa Shigong. You can go to Jinyang when you go to the academy." Princess." Gu Qing instructed. "Okay, as soon as I arrive at the academy, I'll go find Sister Sizi." After Gu Xue finished speaking, she carried her book bag on her back with a face of reluctance, and then followed Gu Xiao out.None of the brats were easy to deal with. Gu Qing went back to the study, the books on the desk were messy, and saw that his own books were mixed with Li Xiang’s, and saw a book called economics, which was I remember that I handed it over to the academy for compilation last year, but I didn’t expect it to be published now. I opened the book and looked at the content. A lot of content was deleted in the book and written into an easy-to-understand content.Put away the books and organize the desk.Li Xiang hurried over to get the economics book again and said, "Teacher, I forgot to take the book." "Hurry up and go to the academy." Gu Qing said in a low voice.Li Xiang took the book and left in a hurry.Just as Fan Jian was packing up, he came to the study and said to Gu Qing, "Patriarch, it's an urgent letter from Songtsan Gampo." After receiving the letter, Gu Qing said, "What happened to Tubo?" "I don't know, it seems that nothing happened. , I seem to be in a hurry not to use this letter." Fan Jian said.Gu Qing opened the sealing wax on the letter and looked at it. The content of the letter was about the situation in Rome. There was a civil strife in Rome. The civil strife was quelled after three days, and it was immediately united with Dashi, and now it is fighting hard. .Standing beside Gu Qing, Fan Jian noticed that Gu Qing looked very bad, and asked in a low voice, "Patriarch, what happened?" "There is going to be a war," Gu Qing said. A person related to the Central Plains people is called Fuzheng.After reading all of them, Gu Qing sat on the chair weakly and put down the rough letter paper in his hands. He didn't expect that Fuzheng was still alive, let alone that Fuzheng was in Rome now!Looking at Fan Jian, Gu Qing said: "Do you still remember how Wu Lao Qi stole the ship?" At that time, Fuzheng lost two boats in order to find the legendary Penglai Xiandao and Wu Laoqi to steal the ship together. One of them was with Wu Laoqi, and the other was in the hands of Fuzheng. How did he survive on the vast ocean?" Regardless of how Fu survived, he was a hidden danger to himself in Rome, and Fu was a very sinister character. Jian's whole family died at his hands.Some people have things that are out of their control, like Fuzheng, who has seen his methods before, and now he is in the Roman army, who knows what he will do. "Patriarch?" Fan Jian looked at Gu Qing and called out.After regaining his senses, Gu Qing asked in a low voice: "Did anyone in the palace receive this letter?" "I don't know. Received." Fan Jian replied in a low voice.Lighting the credit candle in his hand, Gu Qing put it on the ground and watched it burn into ashes. He was not familiar with Fuzheng at all, and he had only fought against him once, so the enmity between himself and him started from Tang Dynasty. It started with Jian. Tang Jian is still looking for the murderer who killed his whole family. Having him in Rome makes him so uneasy. Does the dream really have a meaning?The man who would destroy everything he had built?Gu Qing thought for a long time before he opened his mouth and said to Fan Jian: "Call Di Renjie here." Di Renjie received the call in the evening, and after finishing his work in Dali Temple, he hurried to Gu's house and followed Fan Jian to the study. Huge map, "Teacher looking for me?" "You are here." Gu Qing looked at the map and pointed to a place and said, "Rome is at this location, on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. I always wondered why Rome would solve such a problem at first." There are many foreign aggressions, and they have killed all the way from the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea to Dashi so quickly." "It is said that Rome is very warlike." Di Renjie said. "Not necessarily. Rome is a country that believes in its own beliefs. Their upper class, that is, the nobles, all believe in gods. Those nobles use the name of gods to control the common people in their territory. It's very stupid, isn't it?" Di Renjie remained silent, Some of them couldn't understand the meaning of Gu Qing's words.Gu Qing pointed to Dashi and said: "Songtsan Gambo sent me a letter. Some time ago, there was a civil strife in the Roman army. It happened very quickly but it was quickly settled down. The confrontation between Rome and Dashi has always been Disappeared immediately, but sat down and united." "When did it happen? This is a very important military report for us." Di Renjie said. "I was very surprised why there was such a big change in Rome, until I heard the name Fuzheng again."

The first thousand and 120 chapters of the five past wars

"Is he still alive?" Di Renjie asked. "Alive, living well in Rome." Gu Qing sat down and said, "You caught him back then, what did you think of him?" Tang Jian is the only one who looks like that, and the government was working as a servant in Tang Jian's house." Di Renjie said. "Do you still know where Tang Jian is now?" "I just know that it should be near Tongguan. It will take some time to find him, but now that Rome and Dashi have united, it is a bit worrying for us that the war in the West is about to break out." No more." Di Renjie's words are correct, now that Dashi and Rome have united, I still remember that in Tubo, Yang Sheng, Su Dingfang and Cheng Chumo had a fight with the little prince of Dashi, and Yang Sheng was in front of the Roman army. The little prince of Dashi who was taken down in front of him cut off the head of the little prince of Dashi.Dashi's hatred for Datang can be imagined, not to mention whether Rome will march towards the Central Plains, Dashi will definitely not let Datang go this time, and there is a guy named Fuzheng, how will the situation change in the future? It's unknown. "Teacher, do we need to let Chaozhong know about this?" Di Renjie said. "Maybe Li Chengqian has already received the news. It is impossible for the Tubo Governor's Mansion not to know about such a big move. Now Songtsan Gampo already knows about it." Gu Qing looked at the map with a serious expression. "The battle is imminent." Di Renjie also said.Looking back at the map, Gu Qing said: "The alliance between Rome and Dashi will definitely want to enter Persia and Tianzhu again, but how many Dashi generals died in our hands, how many Dashi people died in that battle, Dashi I hate Datang deeply, and I hate me even more." "Teacher, do we have a chance of winning this battle?" "They may not win, we fight once when they come, until they die, a group of people will only fight Just use your strength." Gu Qing said with a sneer.Di Renjie added: "The army of Xue Rengui in the court has been dispatched before, presumably Xue Rengui's army is going to enter Tubo this time, and Persia may have..." Gu Qing also nodded slightly, "Persia is just a small country in a corner. It was not an opponent of Dashi in the first place, but Dashi has been very stable internally after the war subsided, and now that it has been cultivated for so many years, Persia is not an opponent of Dashi and Rome." Tai Chi Palace, knowing the situation in the West, Li Chengqian called overnight All the officials from the three provinces and the six ministries went to the Taiji Hall to discuss matters, and issued several orders to send an additional 30 troops to the Hexi Corridor. Xue Rengui arrived in Tubo with an army of 30, and must stop Rome and Dashi in Tubo. All Tang merchants outside , all recalled!Yumen Pass, Hexi Corridor, and Yanmen Pass are all under martial law!With an increase of [-] troops and a dispatch of [-] troops, everyone in Chang'an knows that Datang will face a big battle this time. "We're going to fight again." Fang Yizhi stood on the attic of the academy and said in the direction of Chang'an.Li Tai also nodded, "Although Dashi was repelled in the war back then, Dashi's confidence is still there. At that time, I remember General Yu Chigong said that Dashi had long coveted the prosperity of the Central Plains, and killed one of them last time." Not one piece of armor was left, but the little prince of Dashi died under our knife, and the old king of Dashi is still in power now, he will definitely avenge that bloody revenge for his son." "This time the war may still be In Tubo." Su Dingfang walked up and said. "I've been waiting for you for a long time." Fang Yi poured his drink and said, "I thought you wouldn't come." "Actually, I didn't want to come, I wanted to see the academy." Su Dingfang raised his glass and took a sip of his drink and said, "Good wine " "You said this time the war will still be in Tubo?" Li Tai asked in a low voice, puzzled. "Yes." Su Dingfang looked at the night and said: "The last time we faced the alliance between Persia, Tianzhu and Dashi in Tubo, the strongest among them was Dashi, with an army of hundreds of thousands. People and horses couldn't see the end at a glance. In that battle, the knives in our hands were curled and numb. Who knows how many people I killed at that time. I still remember when I stood on the Potala Palace and saw them I was weak when I was in the army." "It was only in that battle that I realized how terrifying Gu Qing's so-called knowledge is." Su Dingfang drank his drink and said, "I remember that Gu Qing said that the weather in Tubo was very extreme. A very large thunderstorm, because the terrain is very high, and there are many places in Tubo that are struck by lightning for no reason. I never thought that Gu Qing could trigger the thunderstorm to help us tear a gap in the enemy's army. The mountain was shaken for an instant, and all of us lost our hearing at that instant, but many, many people died at that instant, and many of them had almost no bones left, and the ground was covered with charred corpses." "I think about that scene now. I felt a little scared when I started to fight. I didn’t feel this way when I was fighting in the Hexi Corridor, but when I saw that countless people lost their lives in an instant under the heavy rain, I was really scared at that time. I was afraid that it was not Tianwei but It’s Gu Qing.” “There’s also Gu Qing’s firearms. Before the war, we captured a lot of Tibetans to make firearms for us. When I went out, I stepped on corpses, and at that moment I knew that Datang would be invincible with firearms!" "In fact, Tianzhu and Persia are not very strong. I have fought against them, and Dashi is the strongest, so This battle will still be the same as before, passing through Persia and Tianzhu to kill Tubo again." "I heard that the Potala Palace is filled with the smell of blood, and you can see the bones under the soil when you dig the soil. "Fang Yi spoke directly. "I wish the army is still victorious!" Li Tai said with a toast. "The flag has won!" Su Dingfang also took another sip of wine.In the middle of the night, Su Dingfang was drunk and wandered all the way to Gu Qing's house. Gu Qing saw that Su Dingfang was drunk and asked Fan Jian to take him to rest. "Gu Qing." Su Dingfang said in a daze, "I haven't come to see you for such a long time, it's not that I don't want to see you, it's because I can't see you." Gu Qing listened to Su Dingfang talking in a daze.Su Dingfang lay on the bed and said: "Even though I have resigned from the army now, Li Chengqian is still on guard against me. You are the Prime Minister and I cannot get too close to you." "It won't be long." Gu Qing said to the drunken Su Dingfang said: "I can't be a prime minister for long, and one day we brothers can sit together and sing songs over wine." Su Dingfang didn't respond, and fell asleep muttering in a daze. "The general is really drunk." Fan Jian covered Su Dingfang with a quilt and said, "Patriarch, please rest earlier, I will arrange someone to watch over you."

The first thousand and 120 five chapters of kindness

On the second day, Gu Qing didn't sleep well all night. Su Dingfang didn't say goodbye as soon as he woke up. He watched the rain fall all over the sky again. Thinking about it, it was already June. He drank a sip of tea and watched the rain fall between the sky and the earth. fall.Cheng Mansion, Cheng Chumo sat at the door of the house and watched the same heavy rain, and whispered to Cheng Yaojin who was wiping his ax next to him: "Old man, there is going to be a war again." "Quan Chang'an knows it." Cheng Yaojin Nodding his head, he said, "It's a pity that I'm getting old, otherwise I'd drive a horse to lead the army myself." Cheng Chumo also wanted to lead the army and fight in the past, but after all these years of experience, the blood in his heart has long been tempered by the court, Gu Qing Now being guarded by Li Chengqian, Su Dingfang left the army, and now there are people he doesn't know in the army. Back then, there were brothers who could go out to fight together, but now he doesn't have that kind of thought. That blood was poured by the court's machinations off. "Do you think Xue Rengui can stop it?" Cheng Chumo asked again. "How does this old man know?" Cheng Yaojin said.The officials of Tubo, Songtsan Gampo and the Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty moved all the people from various tribes of Tubo to the rear border of Tubo.The open plateau thousands of miles in front of him will become a battlefield in the future. Songtsan Gampo rode his horse and waited for the news from Ludongzan.After more than an hour, a fast horse came galloping, and Lu Dongzan came to Songtsan Gampo, pulled the horse and said: "Xue Rengui's army has come here, and it is now stationed in Qinghai for repair." Hearing this news Songtsan Gampo finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "People from our tribe have all moved away, and we don't know what the outcome of this battle will be." "Do you think Gu Qing will come?" Lu Dongzan asked. "No." Songtsan Gampo shook his head and said, "The emperor of the Tang Dynasty will not allow Gu Qing to step out of Chang'an, not in this life." Lu Dongzan fell silent.Knowing what he was worried about, Songtsan Gambo said to Lu Dongzan: "But don't worry, there are no firearms in the west, and they may not be Xue Rengui's opponents. Xue Rengui fought with Gu Qing and the others back then, and it can be considered that Gu Qing and Su Dingfang brought them out. General." "I know Xue Rengui is reliable, but if Gu Qing comes, maybe the chances of winning will be greater." Songtsan Gampo also nodded, Gu Qing's reputation is very famous around the Tang Dynasty, from the Western Regions to the Wa Kingdom and Goguryeo in the east, Gu Qing's reputation is very famous Loud, it is rumored that every time Gu Qing went to war, he would slaughter a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. It was Gu Qing's battle at Yanmen Pass that almost killed the Turkic people.With Gu Qing in Datang, no one dared to offend Datang, and Songtsan Gampo knew in his heart that Datang would not touch Gu Qing if he was not forced to.A scout from the Tubo tribe came riding in front of Tubo and said: "Zanpu! The Persian army has begun to move." Lu Dongzan looked terrified, "Persia is going to attack?" Songtsan Gampo rode his horse and headed for Persia Going in the same direction, riding for half a day to a high slope, you can see the Persian border in the distance. There are constant Persians preparing to leave their homes with salutes, forming a long team and retreating. "What should these people do?" Lu Dongzan asked Songtsen Gampo.The horse seemed to dislike the dry wind in the Persian border, and kept snorting.Lu Dongzan fell silent and watched the long team withdraw from Persia. It could be seen that those with carriages were Persian nobles, those who walked on foot were Persian civilians, and those with ragged clothes and bare feet were Persian slave. "They seem to be heading towards Tianzhu?" Lu Dongzan looked at the direction of the team. "There are so many Persians fleeing, it is not likely that the Tianzhu people will take them in." Songtsan Gampo felt his heart throbbing when he saw this scene. From another point of view, if these fleeing people were from Tubo, how could I tolerate other people's reluctance to save them? Once the army of Rome and Dashi arrived, these people would definitely not be able to survive. "Lu Dongzan." Songtsan Gampo gritted his teeth and said, "You bring warriors from several tribes. We in Tibet will take in those old, weak, sick and young. We will not accept any other Persians." Lu Dongzan moved towards Songtsan As soon as Bu saluted, he went to work immediately. Songtsan Gampo still had a benevolent heart, at least worthy of his admiration.Turning his eyes away from looking at them, Songtsan Gampo rode back to his camp. Before the war, many Tibetans could not sleep well. "Zanpu, General Xue Rengui of the Tang Dynasty is here." A warrior came to the tent and said.Songtsan Gampo immediately walked out of the tent, "Where is he?" "I'm here." Xue Rengui greeted him with a smile standing not far away. "Long time no see, General Xue Rengui." Songtsan Gambo smiled and looked at Xue Rengui gratefully, "Thank you very much for coming to help us." Do what you say." Xue Rengui said.Seeing that there was another general beside Xue Rengui, Songtsan Gambo asked curiously, "Who is this?" "He is Wang Xuance and my assistant general." Xue Rengui introduced. "Please come in quickly." Songtsan Gampo invited.Xue Rengui took Wang Xuance into Songtsan Gampo's camp, smelling the unique smell in the Tubo tent, asked Xue Rengui to sit down and said: "When we parted at the beginning, several years have passed without knowing it. How have you been these years?" "Very good." Alright." Songtsan Gampo poured Xue Rengui a cup of buttered tea with his own hands, "Through Tang's protection these years, Tubo can have time to cultivate, otherwise life will be difficult." "I I know." Xue Rengui nodded, "I still remember that there were many conflicts between you and Persia and Tianzhu because of this business route. I heard that you took in many Persian refugees. How did Persia treat Tubo back then? Now Tubo can help, and I admire Xue Rengui for your kindness." Songtsan Gampo poured buttered tea for Xue Rengui again and said, "Don't worry, General Xue. Get ready, as long as your army can come, we will give you food and grass, it will definitely be enough." Xue Rengui smiled meaningfully, "Don't worry, we have brought a lot of military rations, I just admire your deeds. " Songtsan Gampo nodded.Xue Rengui continued: "Our army can be stationed in front of Tubo within three days, a total of [-] troops." "Thank you." Songtsan Gampo said.Wang Xuance stood outside the camp. It was very cold in Tubo at night. He watched some people from the Tubo tribe walking between the tents. After a while, Xue Rengui came out, "General, are we going back?" Scholar, please bookmark: Datang Zhenguan No. [-] Scholar is updated the fastest.

The first thousand and 120 six chapters of the art of life

"Go back." Xue Rengui said without getting on his horse and holding the rein, and walked all the way looking at the scenery of Tubo. "General, when will we bring the army here?" Wang Xuance asked in a low voice. "Don't worry." Xue Rengui looked at the night and said, "This time we sent troops not only to rescue Tubo, but the meaning of the court is that this time, Datang wants to control the entire trade route. You won't win this battle if you beat us." Wang Xuance looked puzzled and didn't ask any further questions.The scenery in Tubo was a bit desolate, and the wind was very loud at night. Xue Rengui said to Wang Xuance, "Songtsan Gampo and I said three days to come here." "Three days is enough." Wang Xuance also said. "I'm just saying that, our army can't come here within half a month." Xue Rengui continued.After hearing this, Wang Xuance understood a little bit, and replied: "If we get here first, the armies of Rome and Dashi will be wary of us, maybe they will give up Tianzhu first and attack us." "That's what I'm afraid of." Xue Rengui lowered his voice. "According to the art of war, Dashi and Rome are about to attack Persia now. If they take Persia, they will definitely attack Tubo or Tianzhu first. The choice between the two, but if they know that we have come to Tubo and give up Tianzhu first Attacking Tubo, Tianzhu is very likely to attack Rome and Dashi from the rear. At that time, troubles will continue. They will deal with both sides at once. If I were a general of Rome, we would choose to take Tianzhu first, and then plan to Tubo. I thought they would not attack Tubo first." Xue Rengui said with a smile: "There are some things you don't know, the grudge between Dashi and Datang is not a matter of a year or two, once Dashi knows that we are in Tubo, they will definitely Attack us first, the big cannibals don't care about the art of war, and the Tianzhu people don't want to attack the rear of the big cannibal and Rome so desperately. The Tianzhu people are not from the Tang Dynasty, and they are happy to see us both fighting like a wind Let the water rise." Wang Xuance nodded, "It is in our best interest for Rome and Dashi to attack Persia and Tianzhu internally." In the East China Sea, Yan Liben and the students from the Academy are rushing to set the iron boat into the sea, and the situation in the West is already very tense Now, looking at the engine and drawings sent by the Maritime Trade Department and the factory, I fell into deep thought again.At the beginning, I built the sea-going ship according to Li Zhi's idea, but after seeing the structure of the engine, it is another matter to actually use it. "Master Yan, the court will give us another half a month at most." The person sent by the Maritime Trade Department said. "His Royal Highness Jin Wang gave me the blueprint, has he actually tried it?" Yan Liben asked. "It's just an experiment. I haven't installed it on the ship for a limited time." Looking at the blueprint, Yan Liben didn't know when it started. Yan Liben realized that he was relying more and more on the blueprint, so he took out a measuring ruler to measure the various parts of the engine. Then he said to the students on the side: "Tell the blacksmith to overthrow everything in the previous cabin and start over." "But we have been busy for more than a month to complete these things, and there is really not enough time." A student said. "Going to sea is not a joke!" Yan Liben sternly shouted.The students on the side had no choice but to stay quiet and not talk.Looking at the structure of the drawings, there is a very huge chimney on board, and the internal combustion engine occupies one-third of the cabin.The person from the Department of Maritime Trade went on to say: "Before coming here, King Jin has explained that everything must be kept stable. If there is anything to say in the court, His Royal Highness King Jin will discuss it. It's okay to be slower." Yan Liben looked at the huge design , and the responsible structure knows that the workload is huge. Although Li Zhi said so, the place that should be rushed still needs to be rushed. I never thought that the internal combustion engine in this drawing is so huge. "Go back and tell King Jin that I will let the iron ship go into the sea as soon as possible, but I can only build one boat so far, and I have to test some places myself." Yan Liben replied. "It's time to work." The people from the factory and the Maritime Trade Department left.After the person left, Yan Liben looked at the blueprint and coughed vigorously. The students beside him quickly poured Yan Liben a cup of hot water. These years, Yan Liben's body has been getting worse year by year. When he first came, Yan Liben was still middle-aged. In the past six years, Yan Liben has turned from 40 years old to 50 years old. His body has been dragged down by fatigue all the time, and his gray hair is getting more and more. "Master Yan, let's rest for a few days. Let's do these things." The student on the side said.Yan Liben looked at the blueprint of the big ship and said, "This is the biggest ship I have built in my life." "Master Yan, you have done enough." The student continued.Yan Liben looked at the drawings with a smile, "I was born in a family of craftsmen. It is such an honor for a craftsman to create something that the world will remember. It is also for this old man. If you don't finish building this boat, the old man's How can I sleep well for the rest of my life." Standing up with difficulty, Yan Liben was always holding a wooden ruler in his hand. To him, this is his own art, and every brick and tile here is his own painstaking effort. I was taught that as a craftsman, everything should be perfect, this port is also the same, these ships are also the same, and this big iron ship is also the same. This is an item that can make the Yan family a family of master craftsmen.In the era of various schools of thought, the Gongshu family and the Mohist pioneered the way. How many people have remembered the wonderful craftsmanship so far. They are the ancestors of all the craftsman families. Their wisdom has been passed down to the later generations of the craftsman families. From childhood to the great Yan Liben They all have a belief that they hope that people in the future can remember the Yan family. The Yan family is a family of craftsmen who can inherit the wisdom of their ancestors.The port became busy again, and began to recruit blacksmiths again, and the port in the East China Sea resumed its non-stop working day and night.Yan Liben's wife supported Yan Liben to sleep and said: "Old man, you don't have to work so hard, what can you do if you break your body?" It's over." "Well, we'll go back to Chang'an after we're done, and we'll go home." Yan Liben's wife also said.Seeing Yan Liben falling asleep peacefully, she left in peace.Nanhai Wu Laoqi has been counting the days these days. It has been more than half a month since the last delivery, and those guys seem to have forgotten their own existence, and no one cares about them.He didn't dare to take chances in his heart, Gu Qing would not be so kind as to just come to give himself something, he must have other purposes. "Boss! I heard some news. It is said that they dug up gold on an island." A subordinate who ran over said to Wu Laoqi.

The first thousand and 120 chapters of Wu Laoqi's plan

Wu Laoqi looked at the excited faces of the subordinates around him, and asked in a low voice: "Do any other brothers know about this?" "No, I'll tell the boss first." He continued in a low voice: "When I went fishing in a small boat, I saw that there were no guards on the island, so I quietly went ashore and took a look. I saw that there was a gold mine on the island! Thinking about it, I came back immediately." Jian Wu Lao Qi pondered and said again: "Master Gu is really good at predicting things. These days, they are wandering around the South China Sea not for anything else, but for these golds. I think that there are so many golds anyway, we can't take some of them." It will be noticed." Wu Laoqi threw a fist at him in the face, "Who asked you to go there to investigate?" "The little one is to catch fish..." He was knocked down to the ground, puzzled and angry Looking at Wu Laoqi intently. "Catching fish, what do you need to run so far?!" Wu Laoqi stepped on his chest and asked again: "Is it really only you who know about this?" The younger one knows." The man saw that no one else was around and quickly said: "Boss, why don't the two of us quietly go over to get some and don't tell the brothers, how about the two of us sharing the wealth equally? I can’t enjoy it forever.” Wu Laoqi stabbed him in the chest after hearing this, and looked at his disbelief Wu Laoqi said in a low voice: “Brother, I’m sorry! I can’t let other brothers I know." "Boss!" He grabbed Wu Laoqi's sleeve and stared at the boss in front of him, blood choked in his throat, unable to speak.Wu Laoqi stabbed again and said: "I know the temper of the brothers. They will do anything for money. I can't let the brothers die. If you take the gold there, the brothers will die. You Do you really think those guys in the East China Sea trust us so much?!" Seeing the brothers in front of him gradually lose their vitality, Wu Laoqi threw the dagger in his hand into the sea, tied the body with stones and threw it into the sea, "Brother, go all the way, every year On this day, I will burn paper money for you." As the body sank into the sea, Wu Laoqi washed off the blood on his body, and sat on the beach weakly, watching the waves roll over to the shore one at a time.After living in this place, Wu Laoqi stood up from the beach, returned to the island, looked at a group of brothers and said, "We should leave, the wind season is coming, this small island may be flooded." "Where are we going?" A group of brothers looked at Wu Laoqi.Wu Laoqi thought for a while and said: "At this time, brother, bring your things and let's go to Nanzhao for a few days of fun." The scene was full of cheers, and the brothers who stayed on this island were almost bored.The boat went out to sea again, and the brothers asked why one brother was missing. Wu Laoqi made it through with a few casual words, and led the brothers all the way to Nanzhao.Looking at the clouds rolling and relaxing in the sky, the weather has become more and more dreary recently. Looking at the speed of the clouds floating in the sky, Wu Laoqi, who has lived by the coast these years, knows that a strong wind is coming, and this year's wind must not be small. Besides, that small island can't go back anymore. It can stop one person, but it can't hide it from everyone. They are all bandits. A few brethren.The boat was moving slowly on the sea. Wu Laoqi stood on the side of the boat and looked at the distant island with a telescope. He could clearly see people walking on the island, and several large ships were moored by the island.The gold cannot be moved, if it is moved, Wu Laoqi knows that he is a real pirate, no one will protect him, even Gu Qing will get rid of him, at least now he has a reliance, although this reliance is only using him, and even Sold his life. "Boss, what are you looking at?" A fellow on the boat stepped forward and asked.Wu Laoqi put down his binoculars and said, "I'm looking at what their boats are doing on that island?" "Why don't we go over and see, anyway, we are all our own people." The man said with a smile. "The windy season is coming, I don't want to die at sea, go to Nanzhao quickly." Wu Laoqi pretended to be absent-minded and said.On the island in the distance, a few boatmen are transporting the last batch of gold back to the port of Shanhaiguan. The wind season is coming. During this time, they can no longer go to sea, leaving hundreds of people guarding the island. Come back after it's over.A boatman listened to the report of his subordinates and found that a person had been to this island before. It stands to reason that there is no one else except Wu Laoqi. He and his subordinates must die. The strange thing is that after that person returned, Wu Laoqi did not come here but changed his way to Nanzhao. It seemed that he was also avoiding the wind season. "Boss of the boat." The boatman stepped forward and said, "Everything is almost loaded." "Heighten the anchor and go back." He also watched Wu Laoqi's fleet disappear from view with the binoculars, thinking about Wu Laoqi in his heart The guy still obeys the rules and can be trusted.The crew was almost ready, and the boss of the ship yelled, "Go back!" It was already late at night when Wu Laoqi brought his brothers to the coast of Nanzhao. When it rains, the fishermen on the shore will accept Wu Laoqi and his gang. They have accepted these guys back and forth several times, and each time they will give themselves a lot of money.Taking his brothers ashore, Wu Laoqi let his brothers eat a mouthful of hot food and figured out what to do in the future. He looked at the fisherman Wu Laoqi who was not fluent in Nanzhao and asked, "Why do you buy it in Nanzhao?" Land?" The fisherman explained: "The land is bestowed by the royal family." It seems that if you want to build a mountain for yourself, you really have to buy the royal family of Nanzhao. Wu Laoqi then said to the fisherman: "I am People of the Tang Dynasty, if you send a message to your officials, tell your officials that I want to see your Nanzhao King." After speaking, Wu Laoqi threw him a small piece of silver cake, and the fisherman took the silver cake and went to work immediately.Datang people are very respected in Nanzhao, and it should not be difficult to use money to open a way to meet the Nanzhao king by virtue of his identity as a Datang person. "Boss, what if the King of Nanzhao doesn't see us?" Wu Laoqi's subordinates asked vaguely while eating.Wu Laoqi took a bite of the dried fish and said, "I'll let them see us." After a hasty sleep, dozens of brothers packed up the things on the boat, and the fisherman went out all night before bringing the local officials. When Wu Laoqi saw this official, he said directly in Nanzhao dialect: "I am from the Tang Dynasty, and I want to meet your Nanzhao king." , There are no advertisements in the site, please collect and share!If you like Datang Zhenguan No. [-] Scholar, please bookmark it: Datang Zhenguan No. [-] Scholar is updated the fastest.

Chapter 998 Suspicion of King Nanzhao

The official in front of him looked suspiciously at Wu Laoqi and asked in Guanzhong dialect: "Is there a guide from the Tang Dynasty?" "No." Wu Laoqi also answered and handed him a bag of money.After receiving the money bag, the official glanced at the copper coins of the Tang Dynasty, which were full of money, and hesitated in his heart. "What's wrong?" Wu Laoqi asked again. .The official understood the scene, and asked again: "But there are other proofs." "No more." Wu Laoqi said.The official took the money and left with a sneer, and wanted to leave without talking to Wu Laoqi.Looking at the situation, Wu Laoqi greeted the boat behind him: "Fire!" After a long silence, only a loud noise was heard, and a shell was fired from the boat and landed more than ten meters away from the official. The flames were burning a forest, and Wu Laoqi came to the terrified Nanzhao official and whispered, "I can see your Nanzhao king now?" "Yes, yes." The Nanzhao official nodded vigorously.Wu Laoqi gave instructions to the brothers on the boat, and left the two of them to follow him to meet the King of Nanzhao. All the other brothers sailed the boat not far away and waited, watching the boat!Carrying a horizontal knife, Wu Laoqi and two brothers followed this official into the territory of Nanzhao. The climate in Nanzhao is very humid, and there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants in the forest along the way. After walking out of this mountain forest, they arrived at a small village. , Wu Laoqi is quite familiar with this area, and often brings his brothers to Nanzhao for recreation in this place.Riding on a not very tall horse, it took four or five days to arrive at the seat of King Nanzhao. Hearing the introduction from the officials around him, this place was Taihe City.After a report, Wu Laoqi became a little impatient. He had been outside Taihe City for a long time before he saw the minister of Nanzhao come to greet him, and it seemed that the minister of Nanzhao didn't believe him very much.The other party looked at Wu Laoqi and said: "I haven't heard that the Tang Dynasty sent an envoy." "I am not an envoy from the Tang Dynasty, I am from the Tang Dynasty, and I want to see you Nanzhao King!" Wu Laoqi said. "Nanzhao King, you just said you just met..." Wu Laoqi stepped forward and interrupted him, "When did you Nanzhao King be so arrogant? It seems that I will go back to Chang'an and have a good talk with Gu Houye, I came to Nanzhao on the boat of Lord Gu." Hearing the name of Lord Gu, the Nanzhao minister became nervous, and several conversations with the officials who brought Wu Laoqi here confirmed that Wu Lao Qi did have a boat in his hand, and he also had a firearm unique to Datang.Now the ships going to sea are all Datang ships, and these fleets are all from Gu Qing. This is something that the surrounding small countries know. We all know. "Sir, please follow me." The minister then brought Wu Laoqi into Taihe City.It was only after entering Taihe City that I saw the appearance of it. It is not a big place but there are indeed many people. It is the harvest season of melons and fruits, and you can smell the fruity fragrance everywhere. Wu Laoqi followed all the way to the palace of Nanzhao.The two subordinates following Wu Laoqi looked at the facade of the palace and whispered, "This Nanzhao king is really rich. Look at the gold-plated pillars." "Shut up." Wu Laoqi whispered.Handing all the horizontal knives in his hand to the guards of the palace, Wu Laoqi took his own people into the palace, and then saw the so-called Nanzhao king. This Nanzhao king looks very young, and should be about the same age as Gu Qing . "I've met Nanzhao King." Wu Laoqi saluted.The King of Nanzhao smiled and said: "There is no need to be too polite. It is said that you belong to Lord Gu. Is he okay now?" "So many years have passed before I think about it." Nanzhao King recalled: "At the beginning, I was still the prince of Nanzhao, and I followed our Nanzhao envoys to the Tang Dynasty to pay homage. At that time, I heard that Datang had a A very outstanding young man named Gu Qing, who was about the same age as this king at that time, but he was not as good as him. This king admires his wisdom very much. If there is still a chance, this king must sit with him and ask him for advice. "Wu Laoqi didn't speak. It's best not to speak at this time. The more you talk, the more flaws you will have. "By the way!" King Nanzhao then asked, "Have you solved that problem at the beginning?" Hearing this, Wu Laoqi was still silent, and Ben didn't know what problem King Nanzhao was talking about. "It's the question about the gate of life and death. The envoys from various countries couldn't answer it at the time. Is there an answer to this question now?" King Nanzhao asked again.Wu Laoqi gritted his teeth and tried his luck and replied, "I've heard of this question before. It's really difficult, but Master Gu must have the answer." I hope that an ambiguous answer can be passed.The King of Nanzhao also sighed and said: "Indeed, since Gu Qing asked the question, he must have the answer." "Actually, we have a request from the King of Nanzhao this time." Wu Laoqi continued. "We can talk about it a few days later." King Nanzhao still said with a smile on his face: "You must have been very tired all the way, go to rest first and have arranged the banquet and accommodation." Lao Qi left with his two men.After they left, King Nanzhao's smile disappeared from his face and he asked the minister who brought them here, "Are they really from Gu Qing?" "The officials who came to report said they were from Tang Dynasty, and these people There is a boat with firearms, which should only be owned by Gu Qing." The minister said.Nanzhao has been sending grain to the Central Plains for these years, and the grain sent every year is more than tens of millions of stones. In recent years, Nanzhao has had close contacts with Datang. The news never stopped. "This person is a bit strange." King Nanzhao ordered suspiciously in his heart, "How many people have they come?" "There are only three of them here. There should be dozens of people on the boat on the coast, and there is only one boat." , but they don’t have guides, letters and certificates, but there are indeed firearms on the boat.” The minister replied.The young king of Nanzhao thought in his heart, "If they are really sent by Gu Qing, what does Gu Qing want Nanzhao to do?" "Now it is said that the Tang Dynasty is going to conquer the West, maybe it has something to do with it?" "No, It’s too wrong.” Nanzhao King shook his head again and said: “Datang knows our Nanzhao’s weakness, they don’t like our soldiers and horses, and it was agreed before that we are only helping Datang’s fleet to sail. It’s just going to Tianzhu, this person has a very strange thing, he said a word of begging, which is not like what Gu Qing did.” Thinking of this, King Nanzhao said: “Send people to the sea to check with the Central Plains fleet in the South China Sea There is this person."

Chapter 999 Wu Laoqi and Nanzhao King

Wu Laoqi came to a side hall, and Nanzhao King entertained him with delicious food and drinks. The table was full of big fish, meat and fine wine. Seeing his two subordinates eating happily, he didn't have much appetite.Look back and think about whether there is something wrong with what I said before. "Boss, the Nanzhao king's hospitality is really generous." Wu Laoqi's subordinates said with a smile while eating. "Eat less." Wu Lao Qi whispered.I stayed in the side hall for a whole day.He couldn't sleep repeatedly until late at night, walked out of the side hall, and walked around the Nanzhao Palace. There were not many soldiers guarding here, and those soldiers didn't react too much when they saw him walking around like this.He thought in his heart that if he had a thousand troops in his hands, he might be able to sneak into the royal city and directly take down the entire Nanzhao palace. Now the defense of the Nanzhao palace is indeed very lax.When I came to a palace, I saw a lot of people coming in and out. When I got closer, I could hear the conversation inside, as if King Nanzhao and their ministers were discussing something.Nanzhao's words can barely be understood, it is already midnight, Nanzhao king and his ministers are discussing something at this time, leaning against the wall and quietly eavesdropping, listening to the voice Nanzhao king several times Hearing Gu Qing's name and the word "marriage", the other words didn't sound very clear. Could it be that the Nanzhao royal family wanted to marry Gu Qing, thinking in his mind that Gu Qing's three sons had no daughters.It is really a new thing for the king of Nanzhao to marry his daughter to a lord of the Tang Dynasty. It is reasonable to say that a woman from the royal family of Nanzhao married the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Marrying a lord like Gu Qing?Moreover, he is only a county magistrate, thinking in his mind that with Gu Qing's current status, it would be a good thing for many small countries around the Tang Dynasty to win over Gu Qing. At least now Gu Qing almost controls the financial power of the entire Central Plains.The wealth is incomparable to the country and the relationship between Gu Qing and the royal family makes it reasonable to curry favor with Gu Qing. Even if Gu Qing loses power in the future, it is just a matter of marrying a woman. For them, the advantages of marrying the Gu family outweigh the disadvantages.While eavesdropping, a soldier came up and buckled himself, cursing as if he was questioning.Wu Laoqi struggled and responded: "Let me go!" The conversation in the hall stopped, and King Nanzhao asked why Wu Laoqi entered the hall. "I've met Nanzhao King." Wu Laoqi stepped forward and said, "I didn't intend to pass by and heard some words, so I'm sorry for being rude." It's not something shameful, but now I have a younger sister who is going to marry Gu Qing at the age of 16 and marry the Gu family! I don't know what you think." Wu Laoqi thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult, Gu Qing This person attaches great importance to his family, and I have followed Gu Qing for many years and know that he is a man who takes care of his family. He is rich and rich, but there are two wives next to him, one is named Wu Mei, this Wu Mei and Gu Qing grew up together in Chang'an Needless to say, there is another one who is Princess Gaoyang, although there is a complicated relationship between the royal family and the Gu family." Speaking of this, Wu Laoqi whispered: "But at the beginning, for this Princess Gaoyang, Gu Qing almost had a relationship with us in Tang Dynasty. The emperor tore his face, and the two sides were almost at the point of swords. Gu Qing could turn against the royal family because of Princess Gaoyang. In the end, the royal family and the Gu family each backed down a step, and Princess Gaoyang also married Gu Qing." Here, Wu Laoqi deliberately mentioned what happened back then Let Nanzhao King know that Gu Qing even the royal family in the Central Plains will look at the face of the Gu family. Anyway, this is something that everyone in Chang'an knows.Wu Laoqi continued to Nanzhao King: "Gu Qing is a man who values ​​love and righteousness! Gu Qing cares about family affection and dislikes imperial power. Even if one person is under one person and above ten thousand people, he has no thoughts about imperial power. The Gu family and the royal family have almost reached the point of equal status. "Wu Laoqi exaggerated a little, hoping to put pressure on King Nanzhao. "After what you said, I still don't know whether I should marry the Gu family." Hearing what the Nanzhao king said, Wu Laoqi replied, "I think the Nanzhao royal family shouldn't marry the Gu family." "Why?" Nanzhao Zhao Wang's face darkened. "Don't hide it from the King of Nanzhao." Wu Laoqi saluted and said: "I said it before I go down. Gu Qing is a person who values ​​affection and loyalty. He is rich but he doesn't have many wives and concubines. The two wives around Gu Qing are both married to Gu Qing. If the king of Nanzhao gave Gu Qing a woman who has been in love for many years, it will only make Gu Qing feel disgusted, and will not get Gu Qing's kindness. If the king of Nanzhao wants to marry here and let Nanzhao benefit from it, I advise the king of Nanzhao Don't do this, it will have the opposite effect." After hearing this, Nanzhao King became quiet.Seeing that the fire was almost ready, Wu Lao Qi continued: "If the King of Nanzhao wants to benefit from Gu Qing's business, I can point out a way for the King of Nanzhao." "Please tell me." Facing Wu Laoqi, Nanzhao Wang also started to get serious.Wu Laoqi said in a serious voice: "Nowadays, sea trade is going on in the Central Plains, and the harvest is quite good. Now the sea trade is presided over by King Jin Li Zhi, but everyone in Chang'an knows that His Royal Highness King Jin was raised by Gu Qing. Many times, King Jin Your Highness is doing things according to the idea of ​​taking care of Qing. This time, Datang will definitely need the support of Nanzhao during the opening of the South China Sea." "This king knows this, and this king has also promised your Central Plains Maritime Trade Department and Central Plains His Majesty to give Datang in the South China Sea. Help." "That's good." Wu Laoqi said again: "Gu Qing is a businessman, and he pays attention to being willing and rewarding in everything he does. If King Nanzhao wants to benefit from it, he can spend more on sea trade. Let Gu Qing feel the sincerity of Nanzhao, and when the time comes to send envoys to contact Gu Qing, maybe they can go to Nanzhao to get benefits, there are gains and losses, no matter how much Nanzhao contributes, as long as Gu Qing approves, Nanzhao can do it Get the benefits you deserve." "The so-called marriage is just a low-level strategy. I think that Gu Qing doesn't like marriage. Didn't Gu Qing overthrow the princesses of the Tang Dynasty when all the countries asked to marry him? Please think twice." From here After talking, King Nanzhao began to think about Wu Laoqi, maybe he needs such a person by his side to help him give advice all the time, and for Gu Qing, he needs a person who is familiar with Gu Qing to give him advice. People from Nanzhao could not be found.Gu Qing himself had heard of all kinds of deeds in the Central Plains, and Wu Laoqi's words were indistinguishable. After a long silence, he said, "It's getting late, everyone, please rest early."

Chapter 1000 Stay alive

Afterwards, everyone dispersed, and Wu Laoqi also left. Nanzhao Wang left behind only one of his most trusted ministers and asked in a low voice: "Have you found out the details of the people in the Central Plains?" There are results." The minister replied. "Even if the result is false, this King Wu Laoqi wants to keep him." Nanzhao King said in a low voice: "This king needs someone who knows Gu Qing to help Nanzhao. The Department of Trade has gained a lot, and now Nanzhao is too weak, I hope that with the help of Gu Qing's Department of Maritime Trade, Nanzhao can get a chance, a chance to make Nanzhao stronger." The ministers of King Nanzhao also nodded. "Tomorrow, ask him what he wants?" Nanzhao King said with a stern expression.Wu Laoqi returned to his residence, lay down and thought about it, and the King of Nanzhao wanted to make peace with Gu Qing?The Nanzhao Kingdom has always had the least conflict with the Central Plains, and it has always been a subsidiary of the Central Plains. Now Nanzhao has a close relationship with the Central Plains. The King of Nanzhao looks young, but he can't find any faults in his speech, and his mind is much more stable. Look I'm afraid it will be difficult to buy it.After falling asleep in a daze, the maid of the Nanzhao palace woke her up the next day, and saw the Nanzhao king again.The king of Nanzhao still had a smiling face when he saw Wu Laoqi, "I have benefited a lot from what you said last night. If it weren't for what you said, I would have made a big mistake." Please don't be offended by Nanzhao King," Wu Laoqi said. "When you came yesterday, I heard you say that you asked Nanzhao for something. I don't know what it is." Speaking of the topic, Wu Laoqi knew that the Nanzhao king began to believe in him, and bowed and said, "I hope that you will come to Nanzhao." I got a piece of land by the sea in Nanzhao, it doesn’t need to be too big, it’s just a fishing village, I’ll go out to sea often, and I’ll have a place to stay all year round.” “It’s not a big deal, I promise you,” King Nanzhao said.Wu Laoqi didn't expect things to go so smoothly, he was pleasantly surprised and replied calmly, "Thank you, King Nanzhao." "Of course, I also have conditions." King Nanzhao continued, "I hope you can become my Nanzhao king." What do you think of the officials who are in charge of a fishing village in the name of a fishing village?" An official in Nanzhao?Wu Laoqi's smile froze on his face. At this moment, he really wanted to slap himself twice. Why did he join in the fun last night! "Why? Could it be that Your Excellency is unwilling?" King Nanzhao asked. "I am willing!" Wu Laoqi responded bravely, "It's just that there are many things in the sea trade, and I'm afraid I don't have much time to manage a fishing village." Nanzhao King walked to Wu Laoqi's side and patted him on the shoulder and said: "You don't have to worry about this. I will send people to help you manage the fishing village. You can completely leave it to my people. In the future, I will ask you more about many things in the Central Plains, especially those related to Gu Qing. In the future, Nanzhao can grow stronger with the help of Gu Qing's sea trade, this king allows you and me to be nobles in Nanzhao, and it is not impossible for my sister to marry you." Hearing this, Wu Laoqi frowned, thinking that It was just a piece of land. I didn't expect that the king of Nanzhao would throw so many things at once. It would be unavoidable that things would show up. Right now, I can only bite the bullet and take it. I really need such a piece of land. "Thank you King Nanzhao for your trust." Wu Laoqi bowed and saluted. "Very good, you go back first, someone will come to help you take charge of the fishing village in a few days." Wu Laoqi walked out of Nanzhao Palace with his two brothers stiffly, his mind was confused and confused. "Boss, did the king of Nanzhao agree to us?" Got a younger sister, Princess Nanzhao." "Good thing." The two subordinates said excitedly. "Good thing, good thing, what are you thinking about all day long!" Wu Laoqi kicked himself and said, "Do you know how much trouble I will face in the future? On the one hand, Gu Qing's matter has not been settled yet, on the other hand Another Nanzhao king! What a disaster." Back to the fishing village where I came, I found that my boat had already docked at the shore, but none of my men were there.Wu Laoqi was wondering that a horizontal knife was placed on his neck, and there were many footsteps behind him, and Wu Laoqi didn't dare to look back and said in a low voice: "This brother, I don't know when I'm here for the first time. I offended you somewhere." "Wu Laoqi, you are so courageous, even the royal family of Nanzhao dared to cling to you, do you really think we dare not kill you?" Hearing the other party's fluent Guanzhong dialect, Wu Laoqi Qi's heart turned cold, "Master Gu asked you to come here?" "Actually, Nanzhao has always had our eyeliner. Zhongyuan has a lot of business with Nanzhao. Every year, grain is sent to Guanzhong. And will Master Gu stop staring at Nanzhao? Do you really think you can hide the truth?" Wu Laoqi was trembling with his breathing, and the opponent's blade was tightly pressed against his neck. "Fortunately, you, Wu Laoqi, are quite sensible." The opponent put away the knife and said, "Our ship boss wants to save your life, and your life will be of great use to Gu Houye." Until the opponent put away the horizontal knife Wu Laoqi looked back and saw a strange mask on the other party's face. This mask was seen in Gu Qing's dungeon back then, and it was very unforgettable. It was these people who imprisoned him for several years, the boss of the ship?Sure enough, there was Gu Qing's eyeliner on the boat going out to sea. "We all know the matter." The other party still said: "You can take all the benefits that the King of Nanzhao gave you. If you are a princess of Nanzhao, if you have the ability to marry the Marquis, you will not stop you. I will explain to Nanzhao, make sure everything is perfect, save your life, and you will be useful in the future." "I am willing to obey the orders of Lord Hou." After speaking, there was a sudden sharp pain in the back of the head, Wu Laoqi's eyes When it was dark, he fainted on the spot.When he woke up again, Wu Laoqi was holding the back of his head that was still in severe pain. This was a dark and dark room. When he woke up his brothers, everyone was stunned, and Wu Laoqi sat on the ground weak. , I was also afraid for a while, how long Gu Qing's hands are, why I can't escape Gu Qing's palm no matter what I do, I think Gu Qing will know these things when he came to Nanzhao.After Gu Qing knew these things, would he think too much? Wu Laoqi stood up and washed his face with the cold sea water, letting the sea breeze blow him. After waking up, the fear in his heart still could not dissipate. When I was imprisoned in the dark dungeon, the cold and lonely fear came to my mind again.Holding his head in pain, Wu Laoqi felt like he was going crazy.

Chapter 1001

A letter was sent from the South China Sea to the port of the East China Sea. It took ten days to arrive in front of Gu Qing after passing through the Central Plains waterway. Gu Qing opened the letter from Fan Jian's hand and looked at the contents of the letter. Some of the people who have been sent out of the sea and are still in the East China Sea are part of the Green Gang.The letter described the results of the development of the South China Sea. Now it is possible to go to Nanzhao, and it is ready to go to the south of Nanzhao. Yan Liben is still driving the iron boat. The iron boat has been groping for half a year, which can be regarded as You can see the results, as long as one boat is successfully built, more and more iron ships will appear.The content of the letter also stated that a gold mine was indeed discovered on an island designated by the King of Jin. Wu Laoqi did not attack the gold mine, but now he is in Nanzhao and was appointed by the King of Nanzhao as an official of a fishing village.Some did not expect that Wu Laoqi could hook up with Nanzhao King. Was Wu Laoqi seeking a way out for himself?He was born as a robber in the mountains and forests, and he went to Nanzhao and became an official, which is a bit interesting. "What's going on in Nanzhao recently?" Gu Qing asked Fan Jian.Fan Jian replied in a low voice: "Recently, Nanzhao hasn't done much. They still send food to Guanzhong on time every year. Now the Nanzhao prince who came to ask for the princess has now become the king of Nanzhao. Even though he is young, the governance of Nanzhao is still stable, and now Nanzhao's ministries are also very stable." "Nanzhao is now a transit point for sea ships to Tianzhu, and Nanzhao, an ally, cannot be missing." Gu Qing told Fan Jian Said: "Send me a message to send some gifts to the King of Nanzhao. You don't need to send too expensive, just send some silk clothes, potatoes and some jade." "Yes." Fan Jian nodded and said: "Wu Laoqi Now that he is an official in Nanzhao, does he have second thoughts about us?" Gu Qing lay on the recliner, took a deep breath, frowned and said, "This Wu Laoqi has always had second thoughts about me, At the beginning, he listened to my words and did things because he had no influence. In his temperament, he was not a guy who would obey others. Now he has his own little influence. In the past, he would not think of breaking away from me. Now he must Thinking about getting away from me." Fan Jian nodded quietly, "Would you like to mention some Nanzhao kings, Wu Laoqi is not a peaceful person, will the smog he tosses Nanzhao be bad for the Patriarch? Big plan." "Don't worry, now he wants to enjoy the prosperity and wealth in Nanzhao, he is up to him, once the first battle of Tianzhu starts, I will ask Wu Laoqi's people to play forward for me." Gu Qing said. "Yes, let's prepare a gift for the King of Nanzhao." Fan Jian bowed and left to prepare.Gu Xiao's business is also much more convenient than before because of the bus. The road was repaired before and now he has a car. Before that, he had been thinking about horses. Once the road is far away, he needs horses to transport. Now Now with the bus everything is much more convenient.Sitting in the study, Gu Xiao saw Li Xiang was reading a book attentively, and left the study to find Gu Qing after hesitating in his heart: "Father, now my trackers have become the biggest customers of your bus business." "Why do you think the cost is too expensive?" ?” Gu Qing looked at Gu Xiao and said, “Taking a bus can save you a lot of money compared to buying a horse.” “It’s indeed saving money, but it’s too expensive for a trip of three Wen. People are cheaper, this bus can take 45 people in one trip, and each person can earn [-] Wen for a three-way trip, and it’s just superficial for a few round trips, isn’t it? Besides, my people will definitely grow up in the future. customer." Gu Xiao put on a bargaining attitude. "That won't work. This car was made by our factory, but the money for the car was paid by the state officials in Chang'an. They paid a lot of money to make these cars. Although I was in charge of the business, the official car earned a lot of money. The money is not from our family, you should go to them." Gu Qing said. "I'm still young, what if that old man Cheng Yaojin cheats?" Gu Xiao said again. "Mr. Cheng is highly respected and won't play tricks." Gu Qing lazily rolled over and took a nap.Gu Xiao kicked away the stones at his feet. If he lost a penny or two every time he transported the goods, how much money could he save in a year, and if he could save this money, his own profit would be even greater. After thinking about it, this money must be saved. Come down, there are more and more people recently. Compared with the previous few months, the salary I have to pay now is several times that of before.Li Xiang also walked out of the study and relaxed his hands and feet, seeing Gu Xiao, who was frowning, stepped forward and asked softly, "Brother Gu Xiao, what's the matter?" "I want to do business." Gu Xiao picked up a branch and wrote and drew on the ground After a long time, he said: "If everyone can save one penny each trip, then I can save thirty silver coins per month." Li Xiang nodded and said after seeing it clearly: "If you can save more money over the years " Gu Xiao thought for a while and looked at Li Xiang's sad face that immediately turned into a smile. He still has a prince in his hand. No matter how rascal Cheng Yaojin would be to the prince, he made up his mind and said: "Let's go to Chang'an to see See Mr. Cheng." "Okay." Li Xiang nodded and agreed, "I haven't been back to Chang'an for a long time." "Let's go!" The two children got into an ox cart in the village and said to go. just go.Sitting on the bullock cart, Li Xiang whispered to Gu Xiao: "Brother Gu Xiao, when I first came to the village, I remember that Grandpa Huang said that one of my father's daughters would be promised to you." "I know this , I heard about it too." Gu Xiao looked at the scenery along the way.Seeing that Gu Xiao didn't respond, Li Xiang went on to say, "If brother Gu Xiao married the emperor's daughter, then brother Gu Xiao would be Datang's son-in-law?" The agreement, in fact, is that in order to win over our Gu family, your grandpa's grandpa hopes not to break away from the royal family in my generation. My father has not agreed to this matter. Even if there is such a thing, our Gu family may not agree. I don’t like girls from your Li family.” Li Xiang looked at Gu Xiao with a proud expression and said with a smile: “Recently, sister Yang Zhao is that Yuhuan, how many times have you asked me to inquire about you?” “What do you want me to do?” Gu Xiao bit the grass root and said. "I don't know. I asked her a few times and she hesitated. Maybe she was bullied by people from the academy." Li Xiang was a little worried.Gu Xiao nodded seriously, "Maybe it's true. Let's ask the brothers from the academy to ask if someone has bullied Yang Zhao's sister recently."

Chapter 1002

Talking all the way to the city of Chang'an, Gu Xiao jumped off the carriage and took Li Xiang to enter the city gate, but was stopped by the guards of the city gate. The officers and soldiers guarding the city looked at Gu Xiao and Li Xiang and said, "My lord What about it?" "Why? Can't you enter the gate of Chang'an City?" Gu Xiao asked, "Tell you to come over and see who I am!" "Hey! The little baby is not so soft-spoken." Several soldiers surrounded Gu Xiao and Li Xiang became interested. "What's wrong?" The corporal guard guarding the city gate came lazily, seeing his subordinates surrounding the two children and yelling, "What are you guys doing around the two children?" "Look back, they are going into the city, But they have no adults to accompany them and no guides." The soldier replied.The captain looked at Gu Xiao intently, and slapped him on the back of the head, "You blind people, don't even look at who this is, you still want to mess around." Several soldiers were confused by the anger of their chief.Wu Zhang smiled and stepped forward to say hello: "I think this is Gu Houye's young master. Don't be offended by the poor-sighted people in his subordinates."The head of the corps smiled and said: "I think back to when Lord Gu was stopped by me when he entered the palace for the first time. At that time, I was still a small guard in front of the palace. So many years have passed in a blink of an eye, and I am still a head of the corps. Lord Hou is now the Prime Minister." "Can we go in?" Gu Xiao interrupted his emotion, "If you don't let us in, we will have something to eat." "Please come in, please come in." This The corporal quickly made way for the two children to enter Chang'an City.Unexpectedly, this child was the son of Gu Houye, and he quickly calmed down the matter while the city gate guard didn't notice. I was almost hated by Gu Houye before, and after so many years, I finally survived from a soldier to a soldier. Long, I dare not offend him again, wondering if it is a horoscope offense, there was Gu Houye before, and now he has provoked Gu Houye's son, life is so hard, I looked up and sighed and held back tears, life is bitter!Walking on the streets of Chang'an, Chang'an is still lively, walking all the way on Zhuque Street to the door of Cheng Yaojin's house.In front of the huge gate, Li Xiang whispered: "Brother Gu Xiao, shall we go in now?" "Of course we are going in." Gu Xiao stepped forward and said to the porter standing by the door: "Please also report to Old Duke Cheng. Gu Xiao, please see me." The porter looked at Gu Xiao and said, "The old man is not at home, so he went to the Niu's house opposite to have a drink." "The opposite door..." Gu Xiao turned his head to look at the Niu's Mansion opposite Cheng's Mansion. "Yes, it's the opposite door." The porter said lazily.Gu Xiao came to the gate of the Niu Mansion, and said to the gatekeeper of the Niu Mansion: "Please report to General Niu, Gu Xiao asks to see you." The gatekeeper of the Niu Mansion looked at Gu Xiao and Li Xiang and said, "What is it? Don't dare to disturb." "We are here to discuss business with Cheng Laogong and General Niu." Gu Xiao said again. "To talk about business, are you just a little kid talking about business?" The concierge of the Niu Mansion picked his nose and said, "Where do you go?" "How do you talk!" I can’t do business now, and I have a big sale to discuss.” “Go, go.” The concierge of the Niu Mansion said, “Hurry up and go home, or I’ll drive you away!” “How dare you!” Gu Xiao stared at the other party . "Hehe! You're still stubborn, aren't you?" said the concierge of the Niu Mansion, who was about to pick up a stick and drive people away.Li Xiaogong happened to come to the mansion with a pot of wine and saw this scene, and said to the gatekeeper of Niu's mansion: "You guys are arguing with a child!" I have been pestering to see General Niu." Li Xiaogong glanced sideways at Gu Xiao and Li Xiang, seeing these two little ghosts became more and more familiar, and after a closer look, this is the little ghost of Gu Qing's family and the current prince!Saying that, Li Xiaogong laughed three times, took one in one hand and walked towards the Niu Mansion, and said with a loud smile: "Wow ha ha ha! Old man Cheng, come out quickly and see whose bastard I caught!" "It's over !" Being caught in mid-air, Gu Xiao's heart turned cold, as if he was about to be slaughtered.Walking into the house, Li Xiaogong threw Gu Xiao and Li Xiang on the ground and said, "I saw these two little brats sneaking outside before entering the door." "We didn't sneak around, we came to discuss business. "Li Xiang also said.Gu Xiao looked around, turned around and saw Cheng Yaojin, and saw his big eyes staring at him as if he was looking at a piece of fat that was about to be cooked. He mustered up his courage and saluted and said, "I have seen the King of Hejian , I have seen Old Duke Cheng and General Niu, the boy is here to discuss business with the three of you." "To discuss business." Cheng Yaojin said with a smile: "To discuss business, you need to drink. Wine!" Niu Jinda also yelled: "Come and serve wine." Li Xiang was a little timid hearing the loud voices of the two, and said to Gu Xiao: "Brother Gu Xiao, let's go back." "I'm afraid we will go back in a while." I'm not going." Gu Xiao also said in a low voice, just sit down and watch Niu Jinda, Cheng Yaojin, and Li Xiaogong with wary eyes, and then said loudly to the three of them: "The boy is here this time to discuss business, not to drink." " How can we talk about business without drinking, when your father came to discuss business with us, he also had to drink." Cheng Yaojin said leisurely.Seeing a bowl of wine poured in front of his eyes, Gu Xiao took a deep breath, took the wine bowl and gritted his teeth and drank it down. The strong wine was hot in his throat, and he was choked and coughed.Cheng Yaojin looked at Gu Xiao's actions, his eyes sparkled, "My boy, you really dare to drink my Cheng Yaojin's wine. If you are so drunk at such a young age, I'm afraid you won't be another demon king in the future." Gu Xiao held his breath. After drinking a bowl of wine, panting, facing Niu Jinda, Cheng Yaojin and Li Xiaogong, he said loudly, "I've already drank this wine, can we talk about this business?" "One more bowl!" Cheng Yaojin Said. "Okay." Li Xiaogong quickly stopped him, "I'm still a child." "Now is a good time to practice this kid." Cheng Yaojin shouted, "Come on, fill him up!" Another bowl of wine was full Going up, Gu Xiao stared at Cheng Yaojin who was holding a wine bowl bigger than his own face in front of him, drank it down to the end, put down the wine bowl and endured the rising of alcohol, and said in a daze, "Mr. Cheng Duke, can we talk about it?" "Wow ha ha ha, he is really a good boy, he is much more courageous than Gu Qing back then!" Cheng Yaojin laughed heartily and said, "Let's talk about it, you want to talk to me?" What kind of business does my old Cheng do, you can first agree, my old Cheng does not do business that loses money." Supporting his drowsy mind, Gu Xiao looked at Cheng Yaojin with a flushed face.

Chapter 1003 Who Earned

Seeing Gu Xiao's appearance, Niu Jinda hurriedly asked the servants at the side to wash his face to sober up, even a man in his prime can't drink like that, how can a child do it.Gu Xiao became sober after washing his face. To Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda, Li Xiaogong and the three said: "Nowadays, the bus business has been very good, but the manpower in the boy's business has to make several bus trips every day. You can earn hundreds of guan in a month!" Cheng Yaojin said: "This bus, our three families add up to a total of [-] guan in a month." "But this is a slow-flowing business, as long as the distance is long enough to earn The more you are, the kid is right." Gu Xiaoqiang said while supporting himself.Li Xiaogong looked at Gu Xiao with a smile on his face. It is indeed as Gu Xiao said that this business is a huge profit. As long as the road is far enough, the more and more people who want to take the car along the way, the more they will earn. If you want more income, you need to build a longer road. Gu Qing's road construction has stopped until now. Now that Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda are counted, the three of them might pay for Gu Qing to build the road.Thinking of this, Li Xiaogong whispered a few words in Cheng Yaojin's ear.Gu Xiao was still talking endlessly: "Now each person has to pay three Wen to get on the bus, but my people will be regular customers of the bus business in the future, and they will go back and forth several times. This is all paid by myself, so I wonder if I can make it cheaper for the kid." "It's all three pennies, you kid want to make it cheaper." Niu Jinda also said. "One penny! As long as my people are cheaper, one penny will be enough." Gu Xiao stretched out a finger that was a little bit precarious.Cheng Yaojin patted the desk and said with a smile: "I thought it was such a big business, and it's a big deal for a penny. Gu's boy, I'm afraid you've lost your drink." Cheng Yaojin said, Li Xiang, who was sitting on the side, immediately understood what Cheng Yaojin said about drinking and discussing business. It is reasonable to say that Gu Xiao is a junior. As long as Gu Xiao drinks, he can definitely make the business bigger. As long as Cheng Yaojin does not lose money, what's the matter? They will all agree, but does it mean that one penny is too little?Gu Xiao rubbed his face with cold water again and said, "What do Mr. Cheng think about this business deal?" Pay the old man’s family money every month, calculated according to the number of people you have, and you will lose one penny per trip per person. You have to give the old man an amount in advance every month. How about it!" "Grandpa Cheng is generous, I admire you." Seeing that Gu Xiao picked up a bowl of wine and was about to drink it, Li Xiaogong hurriedly snatched it and poured Gu Xiao a cup of tea, saying: "I can't drink any more, I'm still drinking. Go down and be a good kid, don't be stupid." "This is the end of the conversation, I won't send it off, you two go back." Cheng Yaojin nodded and said: "The specific regulations, the old man will send someone from the family to come and talk to you Discuss." Gu Xiaogong was shaking and nearly passed out, but Li Xiang helped him out.Walking on Zhuque Street in Chang'an, Li Xiang supported Gu Xiao and said in a low voice: "This Cheng Yaojin is too much." Gu Xiao said with a smile: "This drink is worth tens of thousands of guan, it is worth it." Li Xiang went all the way He struggled to support him, thinking that if he stood in front of Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda and Li Xiaogong, he might have flinched, and he might not be able to sit down and bargain with them like Gu Xiao, let alone drink their drinks.Walking with Gu Xiao this time, Li Xiang felt faintly in his heart that if he encountered the same thing in the future, he would know how to deal with it.Outside Chang'an City, Li Xiang helped Gu Xiao get on the bullock cart and took out some copper coins to the driver of the bullock cart and said, "Old man, we are going back, please forgive me." The bullock cart driver took the copper coins and smiled haha Said: "Young master, don't be polite. You are a child of our master's family, and you are all from the same village. I should be ashamed of you as an old man." The people in the master's family are all from the same village. Li Xiang felt a little proud and warm in his heart. People in the village would help each other. This kind of feeling is not felt in the palace. But speaking of himself, he is a child of the royal family, not a villager. I am very envious when I think of it. Gu Xiao can live in this humane place.The coachman yelled, and the ox cart started to leave the city gate of Chang'an. Li Xiang helped the drunk Gu Xiaosheng to prevent him from overturning the ox cart.The coachman drove the ox cart all the way to the door of the house. Fan Jian helped Gu Xiao get off the ox cart and looked at the drunk man and said, "Why do you drink so much wine?" He also jumped off the bullock cart and said.Fan Jian gave the coachman some money again, "It's troublesome." "Don't be polite, the money has already been collected, and you are the masters, I can't take more money." The coachman drove the ox cart and left after talking.When Gu Xiao returned home drunk, Gu Qing didn't react too much, but let the family servants take care of him. Sun Simiao gave Gu Xiao some sour fruit soup borrowed from the wine, and said to Gu Qing: "You are really a boy. Why did you let him do business, maybe there will be a next time." "It's good to practice him more, I'm at ease when I talk about business with Cheng Yaojin, but I don't feel at ease if I talk about business with others, I don't practice now How can he bargain with others in the future." Gu Qing looked at the scroll in his hand and said.Sun Simiao regards Gu Xiao as his grandson, and his heart aches.Gu Xiao was so drunk that he couldn't wake up for a while, Gu Qing listened to Li Xiang tell the ins and outs of Gu Xiao's going to discuss business this time, it was Cheng Yaojin who served Gu Xiao with drinks, and stopped after only two bowls. The guy still knows a little bit about the process. Hearing the final result of the business, it seems like a monthly subscription. Cheng Yaojin is learning fast, and the business is becoming more and more proficient. This result is not a loss for the Cheng family.As long as Gu Xiao gives money every month, the Cheng family can earn a fortune, and this month, the people in Gu Xiao's hands can take the car without money, but it is determined according to the number of people. "Who do you think made the money this time?" Gu Qing asked Li Xiang. "Students think that brother Gu Xiao made the money." Li Xiang continued: "It seems that I have to pay a part of the money every month, but it costs three pennies per person to take a car, and Gu Xiao's people can save one penny every time they take a car, but Mr. Cheng lost a penny." "Not necessarily." Gu Qing shook his head and said, "For them, a car with ten people is a trip, and three people are also a trip. The more people there are, the more money they earn. Many, as long as there are a group of very stable regular customers, the business will not lose money. The Cheng family has found their first long-term income, and they will definitely continue to find such people in the future. Except for scattered people, these people are their largest source of income."

Chapter 1004 Divide the cake

"These old guys are old, and their brains are not confused. If they can pay once a month, they can get their income a month in advance. Regardless of whether the payer takes the car or not, they all earn it. Cheng Yaojin is earning money. Now, Gu Xiao can only say to reduce the loss." After listening to Gu Qing, Li Xiang understood a little bit, although he didn't understand, but it seemed to open a new door between interests, and the swap between the first and the second in front of him can be seen To the immediate benefit, but in the long run it is another look.Li Xiang thought about it and said: "If brother Gu Xiao drank wine this time, the car that originally cost three pennies per trip was replaced by two pennies, if brother Gu Xiao took a step forward, he might be able to cut a penny, but if If this is the case, wouldn’t Old Duke Cheng lose a lot? If there is one, there will be three. After Brother Gu Xiao starts the business, maybe more people will do this, and Old Duke Cheng will lose more and more. The students still think that two pennies is the most appropriate." "It has nothing to do with the money, it has something to do with the way of riding." Gu Qing said while stroking Li Xiang's small head.Li Xiang was still a little confused, Gu Qing whispered to Fan Jian: "Send some cakes to the Cheng family, and take me a message to Cheng Yaojin, this cake must be shared." Fan Jian said with a slight smile: "Understood , let’s make arrangements.” Waking up early the next morning, Gu Xiao endured the headache after drinking and poured cold water into his mouth after getting up. There are also some things that I can’t remember clearly, bits and pieces.When I came to the academy, it was the same as usual, until noon, when a servant from the Cheng family found Gu Xiao after dinner.The servants of the Cheng family smiled and said to Gu Xiao: "The master invites the young master to go to the Jingyang River in Chang'an to have a talk." Cheng's mansion!Business?Gu Xiao agreed without saying a word, and brought Li Linfu, Yang Zhao and Li Xiang with him.All the way out of the academy, got into a carriage and left, Li Tai looked at the four children getting into the carriage and asked curiously the guard outside the gate of the academy, "What did these four brats do?" The guard bowed and said, "Go back to His Royal Highness , was taken away by the servants of the Cheng family, who said they were talking about business." Li Tai nodded slightly, since he was a member of the Cheng family, he should be at ease.All the way to the bank of Jingyang River, Gu Xiao watched Cheng Yaojin roasting a hare, stepped forward to greet him and said, "Grandpa Cheng, you really have a taste for it." He smiled and said: "Come, please sit down, and I will taste the old man's handicraft with you today." After sitting down, Cheng Yaojin distributed the roasted rabbit meat to the four children, and then put another marinated rabbit meat on the shelf himself. The prepared hare is then roasted.Gu Xiao ate the rabbit meat and said, "I drank too much yesterday, so I couldn't remember some of what I said. I hope you don't take offense if you offend me so much." Cheng Yaojin smiled heartily, "After you left yesterday, your father I gave the old man a few cakes, and said that the old man should share it, which means that Sang scolded Huai and said that the old man is not honest." "Where is the matter?" Gu Xiao really didn't know that there was such a thing. "But I'm an elder, so I really can't take advantage of your juniors." Cheng Yaojin flipped the roasted rabbit and said while roasting: "It's a bit unreasonable for the old man to think about it when he has nothing to do, but now he wants to come up with it." One way." "Grandpa Cheng, please tell me." Gu Xiao said again. "Of course you can't go back on what you said yesterday, but I can't monopolize you. The road was repaired by your family. Although the car is used by the old man, if your family doesn't build the road, the old man can't earn the money. From now on, the old man will give you money every year." How about a sum of travel expenses for your Gu family?" Gu Xiao didn't sound right, what does this mean that you can't monopolize the advantage, the old man Cheng has indeed earned the advantage, and then why does his father share it, which is called not taking advantage of it? The cake is his own cake, and it's his father and this old man Cheng who divided his cake. Both parties took advantage of it, but he was the only one who lost everything. What's the matter.There is always a feeling of being calculated after the fact. "Is there something wrong with Mr. Cheng?" Gu Xiao said. "Whether it's right or not, it's settled!" Cheng Yaojin said, looking at Li Xiang who was eating Zhengxiang, and said, "His Royal Highness, is it delicious?" "Delicious." Li Xiang nodded vigorously while eating.Gu Xiao was not interested in eating at all, he was tricked!It's a big loss, I shouldn't drink that wine yesterday, this old man Cheng is really a rascal, he is looking at Li Xiang, who is eating Zhengxiang, and Li Linfu and Yang Zhao are all eating so heartily, they are really betrayed I don’t even know that I’m still counting money for others, it’s a headache!Should I change teammates? "Old Mr. Cheng, the boy drank too much yesterday, and his speech is confused and gibberish after drinking..." "What gibberish after drinking!" The water splashed by the married daughter." Li Xiang added. "It's all the same." Cheng Yaojin looked at Gu Xiao, "Little baby, if a man does what he says, he is not a man if he takes it back." Gu Xiao gritted his teeth and worked with both hands, "This time the boy has been taught, thank you Mr. Cheng, teach me." "Yeah." Cheng Yaojin nodded in relief.Biting the rabbit meat ferociously, Gu Xiao secretly remembered this experience, eating a sting and gaining wisdom, this old man can still speak so righteously with his own benefits and being divided by others. Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy. Be on guard.After eating the rabbit meat, Gu Xiao found an excuse to leave, and Cheng Yaojin happily asked the driver to take the four children back. "I didn't expect Mr. Cheng's craftsmanship to be so good." Li Xiang was still thinking about it.Seeing that Li Xiang was in a bad mood, Yang Zhao asked in a low voice, "What's the matter? I see that you have been in a bad mood since you met Mr. Cheng." Be vigilant, I will definitely get back this loss next time." Gu Xiao scratched his head in pain.In time for class, the four children returned to the school.Sitting at home, Gu Qing listened to the servants of the Cheng family come to report and nodded with a smile, "I'm sorry to trouble you, Mr. Cheng." Getting rich is the best," said the villain.Gu Qing drew up the contract and handed it over to this servant, "In the future, it is not so sensible to ask the old man to take care of the kid about Gu Xiao." "That's natural." The good contract bowed and said goodbye.After the servants of Cheng's mansion left, Gu Qingchang sighed, the tuition fees paid this time were quite a bit fortunately recovered, and I don't know how much Gu Xiao learned from this encounter.

Chapter 1005 The Value of Cen's Text

After returning to the academy, Yang Zhao took his younger sister who had just finished working in the Library Pavilion of the academy to the cafeteria for dinner. Unlike Gu Xiao, Fang Chengxian and the others were born noble and naturally they didn’t have to eat in the cafeteria. Yang Zhao brought a pot of wild vegetable soup and a pot of stir-fried The meat was placed in front of Yang Yuhuan, and the two brothers and sisters ate like this. Although the food was not good, there was enough meat for every meal, which made them very satisfied. Yang Zhao knew that his family was not rich enough.Yang Yuhuan ate the food and asked in a low voice: "I see that my brother is very busy recently." Yang Zhao nodded while eating the food and said, "Gu Xiao's business is getting bigger and bigger, and I have to help him with many things." " Hmm." Yang Yuhuan nodded and said, "What did you guys go out with Gu Xiao today?" "I went to see Mr. Cheng today..." As he spoke, Yang Zhao looked at his sister strangely, "Are you asking?" What are these?" "Just asking." Yang Yuhuan lowered his head and ate the food.Yang Zhao looked at his younger sister, put down his chopsticks and said, "I have watched you grow up since I was a child, and I understand what you have to think." Yang Zhao's face turned redder as he spoke.Yang Zhao went on to say: "Gu Xiao is the son of Gu Qing, his family is the prime minister and even richer than the Gu family, and Gu Xiao is the youngest Duke of the Tang Dynasty, the first one since the Tang Dynasty was born who was a Duke character." "I know." Yang Yuhuan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.Looking at his younger sister, Yang Zhao heaved a long sigh, "Our family was born in a humble family, but he was just a local official. What about Gu Xiao? Today's princes have to call Gu Xiao Big Brother and Gu Qing Teacher. Without them, it is not an exaggeration to say that Gu Qing's power is comparable to that of the royal family. The Gu family is the richest family in the Central Plains, and almost controls the financial power of the entire Central Plains. If Li Xiang ascends the throne, the future Gu family will also be comparable to the royal family." " Gu Xiao was born on a high place, so he can't see you." Yang Zhao said as he cleaned up the dishes.Yang Yuhuan stopped eating, and remained silent without saying a word.Seeing his sister suffering, Yang Zhao said again: "Don't be so sad, we are still young, and my brother will study hard, and he will surely become a leader. When the time comes, let Gu Xiao see us. Life is very long, and the day when my brother becomes outstanding , I will make Gu Xiao look at you seriously." After a meal, Yang Zhao sent his sister back to her own dormitory and came to the classroom alone, picked up the book again and watched the teacher's lecture today. past content.It was dusk, and the masters of the academy had almost left. Cen Wenwen was about to leave the academy when he saw Yang Zhao still reading.Looking curious, Cen Wenwen stepped forward to greet him, "Aren't you going home?" Yang Zhao raised his head to see Cen Wenwen and immediately saluted, "Student has met Master Cen." "What are you looking at?" Cen Wenwen looked into Yang Zhao's hands "Zuo Zhuan? Can you understand it?" "If you don't understand it, just write it down and you will understand it later." Yang Zhao said.Cen Wenwen looked at Yang Zhao. Now the masters in the academy are most concerned about Gu Xiao. Gu Qing founded this academy, and Gu Xiao is the son of the founder of this academy. Although Gu Xiao is lazy in class on weekdays, every time the master goes out He was able to answer all the questions quickly, and this was also the fault of the Gu family. They were all on the same starting line. The Gu family let Gu Xiao learn what the other children had to learn in five years.So much so that what Gu Xiao has learned is one step ahead of his children.Thinking in his heart, Cen Wenwen observed Yang Zhao. In the years when he was an official in the court, he could not say that he had seen countless people, and he could see through some things. This Yang Zhao was a little too eager for quick success, let alone whether he can see it now To understand Zuo Chuan, just his previous words are enough to see his mind. "Do you want to be an official in the future?" Cen Wenwen asked tentatively. "Think!" Yang Zhao nodded vigorously and said, "I want to be an official. I came to the academy to study to learn skills. If I can become an official in the court, I can get ahead." "Does being an official in the court mean getting ahead?" Cen Wenwen sighed.Yang Zhao replied: "After I became an official in the court, the people I saw and the things I came into contact with were completely different from before. If I had been in the academy, I would only be in touch with the things in the academy every day, just like a farmer. I can only farm for my whole life, and I can only learn more by jumping out of the circle in front of me." "You are an official because you want to get ahead?" Cen Wenwen asked suspiciously. "Isn't it all like this?" Yang Zhao was puzzled.Speaking of this, Cen Wenwen became more and more sure of what he wanted in his heart. Yang Zhao did not regard being an official as a responsibility, but he regarded being an official as a springboard to jump into power.Simply sitting down, Cen Wenwen said to Yang Zhao: "Do you know why I became an official in the first place?" But to me, living a good life is such a luxurious delusion. At the beginning, all I worked hard was to survive. In that war-torn era, there was only one way to survive. People think you are useful, people think you It's valuable, that's all." "I don't really understand." Yang Zhao shook his head. "I was an official just to survive, and they would let me live in order to make the princes and generals feel that I have value." Cen Wenwen recalled and said: "When the war subsides, I don't have to worry about living anymore. , because the world is too peaceful, I was also confused at that time, until I saw what Fang Xuanling did, sometimes being an official was to realize the revenge in his heart, a child in a village saw the injustice in his hometown, saw When it comes to the dangerous side of the world, he will study hard and work hard to climb up. Then he wants to be an official not for other things, but for upholding justice." "Is being a county magistrate in one place considered getting ahead? It may be to you Not for others, but for others, if he becomes an official, and he uses his actions to make the people's life better, he is a leader. Everyone has an ambition in their hearts. Aspirations are never cheap, but very high. , Even if you work hard for most of your life, you may not be able to realize your own burden, but some ambitions are very cheap." "What kind of ambition is cheap?" Yang Zhao asked.Cen Wenwen said with a smile: "It's like the person next to the emperor. He has no skills, and he became a powerful person only because the emperor took a fancy to him. But this kind of person often climbs higher and falls harder. His value depends on the emperor's momentary joy and anger, and his status depends on the mood of the emperor today, don't you think such an ambition is a cheap one?"
