[Comprehensive] The five elements are short of money

Yan Lide had just come out of the magistrate's mansion in Taiyuan, and he was going to hand over the wealth and treasures of Tsingyi Building. Clear accounts are his consistent principle in doing business.All the cash was returned to the imperial court, and the Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion left those empty shops and farms, and all the contracts were prepared. This was Yan Lide's reward for helping the imperial court eradicate the illegal "killer organization" Tsingyi Building.Otherwise, the emperor is really so generous, sending the third-rank officials of the court to play with the prince.

This is thanks to Huo Xiu being an old man with a weird temper. In order to prevent people from seeing him clearly, Huo Xiu has been communicating with his subordinates through notes and codes. Many of his subordinates have never seen him in person.Pretending to be mysterious and getting himself involved, Huo Xiu is a typical example of shooting himself in the foot.

For Yan Lide, the situation of Tsing Yi Building will be settled with the court.As soon as Yan Lide sat down in the study, Huo Tianqing came to see him.

"Sit down." Yan Lide pointed to a place for Huo Tianqing to sit down, and continued to write the memorial, secretly reporting the progress of the emperor's Tsingyi Building.

The only sound left in the study was the rustle of brush and ink writing on the declaration, but it was even more silent.

After Yan Lide finished writing a paragraph, he didn't look at Huo Tianqing, he just said, "Come again after thinking about it."

Huo Tianqing entered the door without saying a word, obviously he hadn't made up his mind yet, Yan Lide prided himself on being a peerless boss, as a tolerant boss, he allowed his subordinates to change their minds.

"Young Pavilion Master, Huo Tianqing is here to resign." Huo Tianqing finally got the words out.

"You have served as the general manager for the past few years. You have worked hard and made great achievements. The business share of Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion in Shanxi has increased by 5.00%, and you have reached an agreement with Lanzhou to open Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion to the surrounding areas of Shanxi. I see all of these. You have an idea. People, since I want to leave, I don't want to stay with you. At the beginning, you stayed to learn the experience and techniques of Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion, and I also promised you that you can raise one condition. Now that the time limit is up, you can raise it." Yan Lide still It's so easy to talk, as for Huo Tianqing's stealing from a teacher to learn art in the past few years, being infatuated with Shangguan Feiyan that put Yan Tieshan in danger, and being bewitched by Huo Xiu and trying to step on two boats, there is no need to bring it up to the public.

"It's Huo Tianqing's luck that the pavilion master can teach me. The pavilion master saved my life and taught me the ability to live and live..." Huo Tianqing was still confessing, but Yan Lide was already waiting for his "but", saying So many kind words can never be parting words.

As expected, Huo Tianqing bowed and bowed again, saying: "Huo Tianqing is impudent, I have a merciless request."

"It's okay, let's talk about it after thinking about it." Yan Lide seemed to be comforting the nervous Huo Tianqing, but he was actually beating him. Yan Lide said in the past, since it is an unfeeling request, don't say it.

Huo Tianqing swallowed, but still insisted: "Please tell the young master where Shangguan Feiyan's body is buried."

Yan Lide sighed, shook his head in disappointment and said, "I originally prepared a hundred taels of gold for you, and ten shops, which are enough for you to rebuild the Heavenly Bird School and maintain your daily needs. Now you take this back, and I will not change my mind."

"Young Pavilion Master, please complete it." Huo Tianqing insisted.

"In that case, I will take back the gold and silver shop. Huo Xiu threw the body of Shangguan Feiyan on a straw mat in the mass grave in the west of the city. Shangguan Xue'er collected her body out of blood, and I sent someone to escort her Go, the time will come back soon. At that time, you can ask her to see if she is willing to hand over her cousin's body to you." Yan Lide said flatly, as if he was not surprised by his choice.

"My subordinates have disappointed the Young Pavilion Master." Yan Lide sighed, making Huo Tianqing fidgety. He didn't know that he was a hero, short-tempered and affectionate, and it would be unwise to give up a large sum of money in a gold and silver shop for a dead woman.But this is his last chance. If the money is gone, he can make it again. He believes in his own ability, but there is only one Feiyan. Even if she is not a good person, and no matter how many admirers, he is the only one who can live and die with her.

"I said earlier that you are not my subordinate, so you don't need to care too much about my thoughts. In the future, you will also be a pioneer. It is right to insist on your own opinions." Yan Lide said perfunctorily.

"Thank you, Young Pavilion Master, for your guidance." Huo Tianqing was proud and considered himself a top-notch figure, but he didn't dare to take pride in front of Yan Lide.At the beginning, Yan Tieshan had fallen on the road that Yan Tieshan had to pass and calculated a "life-saving grace in return", but Yan Lide saw through it at a glance.Yan Lide let him stay in the pavilion as he wished.In recent years, if Huo Tianqing really cared about Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion and opened up the territory, Yan Lide would not hesitate to reward him; but if he did things later to buy people's hearts for himself, Yan Lide would often predict the enemy first and act ruthlessly.Repeated several times, Huo Tianqing was too scared to move.flirting with Huo Xiu and admiring Shangguan Feiyan was already Huo Tianqing's greatest resistance. Facts have proved that Yan Lide is not something he can push. Fortunately, no irreparable mistakes have been made, and Yan Lide is still willing to maintain the superficial peace.

"Since you are gracious, I will rely on the elders to say a few more words." Yan Lide is not older than Huo Tianqing, but he has put on this elder's posture for decades, and he is very proficient. "I'm disappointed in you. It's not because you love Shangguan Feiyan, a gentle lady and a gentleman. It's a matter of course. What I'm disappointed in is that you are indecisive. You always think of killing two birds with one stone, and you can do everything. There is no such cheap thing in the world. There must be trade-offs in doing things for others! I'm not afraid of you teaming up with Huo Xiu. A real man is born in this world, and he is not afraid of being taken advantage of by others, but he is afraid of being useless. Since you think Huo Xiu can win, why bother to hold back and act uselessly in front of my father? He treats you well. Trust, killing or arresting, will always make me afraid. You, you are afraid that I will find out later, hesitate to make a decision, and involve Lu Xiaofeng's variables into the game, so that the situation will get out of control."

Huo Tianqing remained silent.

"Forget it, take it as a farewell message, listen to it as long as you can. Xue'er has come back, you go ask her." As soon as Yan Lide finished speaking, there were footsteps at the gate of the courtyard, and Shangguan Xue'er took a few maids to From the study.

Huo Tianqing bowed three times to resign, stopped Shangguan Xue'er in the courtyard, and said, "Miss Shangguan, I want to bring back Feiyan's body and bury her in the Tianqin School. I promised to marry her, but now that the yin and yang are separated, I should fulfill it." promise."

Huo Tianqing hated Yan Lide, if he hadn't forced him so hard, Huo Tianqing would not have sat by and watched Feiyan be killed; he hated himself even more, for not being able to stand up in front of Yan Lide, and thus losing his love.

"Brother Yan, what do you say?" Shangguan Xueer glanced at the study room, she could still save her life if the country was subjugated, Shangguan Danfeng was killed, but she lived a chic life, Shangguan Xueer was very skilled at reading people's faces.

"Young Pavilion Master said that you are in charge."

"Oh, then take it." Shangguan Xue'er readily agreed.

Huo Tianqing pursed his lips, a little unhappy, but couldn't say anything.

"Really, you want me to give it to you, what face do you show me? Shangguan Feiyan killed my sister, I think it's the best of humanity to collect her body for the sake of the same family and surname, what else do you want?" Shangguan Xueer Look rather good-natured.

"Huo Tianqing has no complaints, thank you, and leave." Huo Tianqing cupped his fists and walked out, Shangguan Xueer signaled one of the maids to follow, and handed over Shangguan Feiyan's body.

Shangguan Xue'er bounced over, knocked on the door lightly, and said, "Brother Yan, I'm Xue'er."

"come in."

Shangguan Xue'er entered in response, while Yan Lide was still struggling with his memorial, writing non-stop.

"Brother Yan, I gave Huo Tianqing the body of Shangguan Feiyan, and he said that I will decide what you say."

"I said it." Yan Lide nodded, put down his brush, and signaled that he didn't care about it.Picking up a stack of papers from the desk and handing it to Shangguan Xueer, said: "Look at this."

Shangguan Xue'er took it and took a look, there were some gold, silver, jewelry, jewelry and cloth on it, as well as several shops and several farms. "What is this?" Shangguan Xueer asked.

"It was deducted from Shangguan Jin's property and left for you as a dowry. Shangguan Jin swallowed the share of Shangguan wood, which belongs to your Shangguan family. You are the only surviving blood of the Shangguan family, so it is just right to leave it to you. I will take the empty shells and shop." Yan Lide explained: "Since you recognize my father as a foster father, I will prepare the dowry when you get married in the future, and Uncle Dugu Yihe in Emei will also add makeup, so you can rest assured. Daddy, if I marry and have children, I will be loyal to Jinpeng's old court."

Shangguan Xue'er's short ten years of life has seen more than others in a lifetime. When she first heard about marriage and dowry, she didn't want ordinary daughters to blush, but asked with a pale face: "Do you have any arrangements for my marriage?"

"Not now, I will try my best in the future." Yan Lide told the truth, seeing the eleven or twelve-year-old girl turn pale with fright, he also felt pity for him, and comforted him: "I give you the dowry because of my moral drive, you don't have to Burden. If you want to marry a Jianghu person in the future, you can marry an official, and I will also support you. Of course, if you want to marry an ordinary person to live an ordinary life, I have no objection."

"For a person who has never experienced extraordinary things, it is ironic to let her live an ordinary life." Shangguan Xue'er sighed.

"I thought your short life had enough ups and downs."

"Brother Yan is right. I went to find my adoptive father to act like a spoiled child. Maybe I can get some more dowry." Shangguan Xueer recovered almost instantly, and laughed again.

Yan Lide's study room was really busy today. As soon as Huo Tianqing was sent away, Shangguan Xueer came. As soon as Shangguan Xueer left the courtyard, Zhu Houde fell off the wall.

When Yan Lide heard the guard's report, the corners of his mouth kept twitching.It's only been a long time since I left the palace, have all the rules been chopped up and fed to the dogs?Will the queen empress kill him when he goes back?

"The prince of a country, can't you go through the main entrance?"

"It's agreed to call me cousin, and be careful of passing through." Zhu Houde reminded.

If you were really my cousin, I would have spanked your ass a long time ago!Yan Lide slandered, maybe his eyes were too straightforward, Zhu Houde couldn't stand it with his thick skin, so he changed the subject and said: "I heard that the property of Qingyi Building has been counted? How much did the court get?"

Look, it is the prince after all, even if he likes martial arts and is curious about the world, his thinking is still the thinking of people in the court.

"It has been counted and sealed. Except for a Weibo dowry for Shangguan Xue'er, the rest of the cash, antiques, and treasures are all sealed up and will be shipped to Beijing soon." Yan Lide joked. "It's better than money that will only go into His Majesty's private treasury." It has nothing to do with the imperial household department, Yan Lide has been busy for a long time, and has not fought for the slightest interest for his department.

"What about the shop? Don't bully me when I'm young. The shop is the golden hen that lays eggs. You should shut down the shop." The prince looked like he was at a loss, and wanted to bargain with Yan Lide.

"This is what your father promised me, otherwise why would I travel thousands of miles?"

"Sure enough, he is a businessman. His calculations are too smart. Why don't you leave the shop and farm to your father? That's the big deal. Court officials are not allowed to do business!" Zhu Houde's last sentence was close to a threat.

"Don't worry, all the shops and Zhuangzi are recorded in my father's name, and I'm definitely a clean court official." Yan Lide blinked and didn't answer Zhu Houde's question directly.

"Don't tell me, I really wrote a letter to my father to complain! I also told my mother!" Zhu Houde keenly found that Yan Lide seemed to be more afraid of Queen Zhang.

Yan Lide sighed and said, "Cousin, this is not the attitude of asking for advice."

Zhu Houde immediately exploded, "Who said I beg you!"

"Hey, if I teach you, you'll be too long-winded. If I don't teach you, I'll blow my hair again. It really puts my cousin in a dilemma."

Zhu Houde was so ashamed and angrily jumped up to cover Yan Lide's mouth, he didn't explode! "Will you tell me..."

"Say, say! Solemn! Solemn!" No amount of martial arts skills could stop the brat, Yan Lide jumped out of his seat, dodged Zhu Houde's attack, straightened his clothes, and maintained his demeanor.

"Have you heard of the Huangzhuang established by His Majesty Xianzong?" Yan Lide put on a posture and said business.

"I know, the eunuch Cao Jixiang's family property was confiscated, and the Huangzhuang was established, and I also have it under my name." The prince has never been taught by the sour Confucianists that he doesn't know what minced meat is.

"That's right, Huangzhuang is not the estate of His Majesty alone, but the estate of the empress, concubine, crown prince and kings in Beijing. Do you know the income of Huangzhuang? Well, before answering this question, cousin, you Do you know what the income of a general farm is?"

"Am I a fool? Of course I know that Huangzhuang's income is tricky." Zhu Houde is extremely smart, and he also knows that Huangzhuang must be lucrative under the supervision of eunuchs. These supervisors are the first to take advantage of it.But what can Zhu Houde do? He is only a teenager, and the most painful thing is that he can find a problem, but he can't find a solution to it.It's better to live a muddleheaded life, at least I feel relaxed.

"Yeah, it's tricky. Instead of taking advantage of others, it's better to put the rotten meat in your own pot." Yan Lide smiled, "To tell you the truth, my cousin, after the earthquake in Tsing Yi Building and the internal stability, I will reorganize and hand over these farms. Your Majesty bestowing meritorious officials, wouldn't it be better than handing them in now? Your Majesty has just put an end to Li Guangzhi's troubles, so my cousin should pay attention in the future."

"Hmph, you still look down on eunuchs. They accompany... growing up, and there is only one Li Guang. It has been so many years, and they always bring it up. You still hold on to it, right?" Zhu Houzhao was very angry, In his heart, his father is the best emperor in the world. Even the "outspoken" censor in Ming Dynasty had nothing to say, so Li Guang came out and became a stain on his father. Say, who can't make a mistake once?What's more, from Zhu Houde's point of view, it was Li Guang who was wrong in this matter, it was just that he failed his father's trust.Zhu Houde wouldn't be angry if other people said this, but Yan Lide couldn't do it, because Zhu Houde accepted him as one of his own!

"My cousin misunderstood me again. There is never one size fits all, and the same is true for eunuchs. Not to mention Zheng He, the eunuch of the Sanbao, he is a person who wants to be famous in history; his military exploits are as great as Wang Yan, and his temperament is as pure as prosperity. Speaking of Yu Qian's efforts to turn the tide, Jin Ying refuted the theory of moving the capital, and supported the main battle faction headed by Yu Qian. Isn't it the mainstay? These people are all sages I admire, and eunuchs also have heroes. These evaluations are not mine. They are all civil servants who compile history What I said, it can be seen that as long as you are a loyal and upright person, the world has its own opinion. Also, please don’t feel wronged by eunuchs, and don’t feel wronged by civil officials, aren’t they all your officials?”

Zhu Houde was silent for a while, and said: "Only you are willing to tell me that. They always say that Li Guang is not good, and why have they ever seen Eunuch Huai'en and others are good? My father still remembers him. In their eyes, I am a Buddha statue made of clay and wood, I agree with what they think is good, and oppose what they think is bad. Huh, what else do I need to do, just erect a sculpture."

Unexpectedly, Zhu Houde, who was only a teenager, already had such deep opinions on the civil official group.Yan Lide smiled and said: "Cousin, didn't you see it? They are jealous? Think about how many years of hard work it takes for a scholar to enter the officialdom? There are countless people with gray beards who are still taking the exam for talents, otherwise there will be no good heads It’s a poor story. But the father-in-laws are young and powerful, and in their eyes, they are only because they are close to the royal family. Wherever they are concerned, the father-in-laws are also outstanding. Not being envied by others is a mediocrity, so you can treat them as having red eyes. If you are jealous and lose the wind, you can tolerate them."

In a word, Liu Jin, who was pretending to be a wallflower in the corner beside him, couldn't help laughing.

"This is a new way of saying it. Thinking about it this way, I'm not so angry." Zhu Houde's eyebrows were curved, and he couldn't help laughing.

"But don't think that you can get away with it like this. You haven't talked about the shop after talking about the farm." Zhu Houde added.

"You really don't see the rabbits and don't scatter the eagles." Yan Lide was helpless, the topic changed so much, how could he still remember it.

"That's right!" Zhu Houde puffed out his chest proudly, if he was so easily distracted, his father wouldn't worry about his silly son coming out to play.

"Before answering, cousin, tell me, if you were to do it, would you do this?" Yan Lide asked.

"Since there is Huangzhuang, why can't there be Huangdian?"

Boom!Yan Lide accidentally knocked down the teacup. Didn't expect that at this time, the notorious Huangdian actually had a plan?

Zhu Houde is also good at observing words and expressions, seeing Yan Lide, who has always been calm, accidentally smashed the teacup, and asked quickly: "Is the imperial shop not good?"

Yan Lide smiled wryly, "It's not only bad, it can't be worse, it's worse than Huangzhuang." The matter involved the ancestors of the Zhu family, and it's disrespectful to judge the emperor by his ministers, but Yan Lide couldn't just sit back and watch Zhu Houde get this stupid thing out of Huangdian.

"Liu Banban is a trustworthy person, but it's okay for you to say so." Seeing Yan Lide looking around, Zhu Houde thought that he was worried about Liu Jin.

"It's not because of Eunuch Liu. Many sages and great scholars have taught you that if you listen, you will be clear and you will believe, and you will be dark. I also think the same way, but I want to ask Your Highness to promise me. Before you are sure that the imperial store is harmless, don't open this for any reason. matter." Yan Lide said seriously.

"Is it that serious?"

"I have always advocated that true knowledge can be obtained through practice, but this matter cannot be practiced, and it is extremely harmful. I am afraid that the sweetness at the beginning will make you lose your mind, and you will not be able to stop if you want to stop later." Yan Lide sighed, "Just like the history books According to the records, kings often ask immortals to ask, don’t they know the harm of elixir? Yes, they must know, but they still think that they are special, let the benefits in front of them fool their eyes, and think that what they shoot is sugar-coated shells, and they want to eat sugar-coated Cannonballs hit back, but they don’t know that the sugar coating is also poisonous. Domineering like the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, and wise like Tang Zong were not spared, how do you think you are better than them?"

"Okay, I agree, but you also have to tell me what's wrong with the Huangdian!"

"What my cousin thinks is whether the imperial store is directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, and the gold and silver go directly to the royal family to reduce consumption. Of course, the emperor has no time to manage these, so he should appoint eunuchs to supervise them. It's not that I'm alarmist, money touches people's hearts, there are many things in the world Worse than loyalty. If the cousin opened the door, he would never be able to stop it. But the most important thing in doing business is tact, and if you are not tactful, things will not go on. Eunuchs grew up in the palace and knew how to manage things. The one who comes with money is nothing more than collecting taxes, and collecting taxes in the name of the emperor. I don’t talk about those fake and empty people competing for profit with the people. Taxes. It is a big hazard to stability, and the real crime is on the heads of officials, further intensifying the struggle between eunuchs and civil officials." It was the beginning of another party struggle, and Yan Lide pointed to Liu Jin who was standing aside, "I said these are not There is no false statement, Eunuch Liu can be a witness."

"Master Yan's words are very possible." Liu Jin lived up to his sincerity and was very cautious.

"That's because the servants below didn't do a good job. I'll choose a group of loyal and capable eunuchs..."

"His Majesty Xianzong must have thought so when he established Huangzhuang." What does Huangzhuang look like now?Yan Lide didn't say this sentence, but it was self-evident.

"Let me think about it, let me think about it." Zhu Houde waved his hand. He knew that Yan Lide still had a lot to say. It was not for him, a courtier, to comment on matters related to the Xianzong. Zhu Houde was going to accumulate all these questions. After returning to the palace Ask his father the emperor.

Yan Lide does have a lot to say. Huangzhuang started the wind of land annexation in the Ming Dynasty. The clan, eunuchs, and local officials wantonly annexed land. The disaster of overthrow.And this is still the world of martial arts, Yan Lide is not sure how much reference value the official history has.

What Huangdian opened up was to use administrative means to suppress the market, and power would destroy the entire commercial system.In his previous life, what Yan Lide was most proud of was that he was an "official businessman" with state support and business means.But it was later discovered that this was his biggest failure. Any successful businessman or business method should not be linked to politics.Maybe your idea is good, but the road is going astray.Even if you can keep your heart, the successor must have a little knowledge.Yan Lide's evaluation of "Biographies" was very serious. He thought his life was a glorious life, but in the long river of history, he was nothing more than a small person with a little reference value.

This topic is too heavy, after Zhu Houde left the study, he tossed and turned without sleep all night.

In Yan Lide's memorial to the emperor, he was delighted to write that "His Royal Highness rekindles his desire to seek knowledge, thinks sharply and argues sharply, and understands people's sentiments." Liu Jin copied Yan Lide's words verbatim in the secret report to the emperor, Without a trace, he commented, "Your Highness thinks deeply about it." As for Zhu Houde's letter?I'm sorry, the emperor didn't wait for it, and the brat who threw it out expected him to remember his family's safety, obviously thinking too much.

The next day at the dining table, I saw Zhu Houde frowning deeply, with two big dark circles. He was only in his teens. The dark circles under the eyes that were full of collagen couldn’t be saved, which proved how deep Zhu Houde’s thoughts are. .

"Cousin, you went to be a thief last night. It's not worth it to make trouble with your body." Yan Lide comforted him heartlessly. Wasn't he the one who caused the matter?

"Yes, my nephew, don't take all the responsibility on yourself when you are young, don't learn from your cousin, there will be a tall man to take care of you when the sky falls." Yan Tieshan said, he didn't know the nephew he was talking about It's the prince, and Yan Lide fooled him by saying that he was an old friend of the court and China, so he couldn't reveal his identity.

"Is my cousin actually the one who takes care of things?" Zhu Houde was very skeptical.

"Hahaha, I can see that you have been teased again. Did he say some worrying things to you, and said that if you don't do things today, you won't be able to see it, and if you don't do it tomorrow, you won't be able to see it. Wait until you don't do it for a year, and then think about it." When you are chasing, you can no longer catch up with others."

Zhu Houde stared at Yan Tieshan with round eyes, whether he could pinch it or not.Yan Lide didn't say this yesterday, so he could have said it before.

"Father, don't bully your cousin." Yan Lide looked at his father who was making trouble, feeling helpless, and gave him some food, urging him to let go of this festival.

Yan Tieshan looked at the small green vegetables on the plate, closed her eyes cruelly and stuffed them into her mouth, as if taking medicine.Yan Tieshan felt that she was a disgrace to the world of fathers, a coward!Whose son is in charge of his father, that's his family!He also said that he is too fat to eat meat all the time. Is he fat?fat?He is mighty!A belt of ten circumferences, the face of a great general!

"Cousin is also relieved. Just like what dad said, there will be someone taller than you if the sky falls. At least my cousin won't be able to escape. Eat obediently, and I'll take you to learn later."

"Master, what have I seen?" Zhu Houde muttered, biting a big mouthful of the steamed stuffed bun. As a native of the capital, he was very proud. Seeing that everyone was a bumpkin, he didn't need to gain experience.

After breakfast, Zhu Houde went out with Yan Lide in high spirits, with Liu Jin who followed closely behind him three steps away as standard.

In summer, the dawn is early, and the morning breeze is very cool. Most people go out at this time. By noon, there are few pedestrians on the street.

Yan Lide and Zhu Houde just caught up with the rush hour of travel, and there were too many carriages on the main street of Taiyuan City to turn around. The two walked to the intersection of the street, Yan Lide pulled his little cousin out of the car, and turned around in the alley without knowing where to go When I went to a back street, it was immediately clean.

"Where are we going?"

"Go to Jiangnan."

"What? But why should I pack up and salute!" To be exact, he hadn't even finished his tour of Shanxi, so why did he have to change the map again.Also, the things he bought for his father and queen are piled up in the Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion, and he is going to Jinci Temple to have a look.

"Eunuch Liu has already prepared it." Yan Lide misfortune.

"Liu Banban, you already knew about it?" Zhu Houde asked in disbelief.

"Don't worry, young master, I have my subordinates to take care of the follow-up. If you go to Jiangnan, just have a bank ticket, and you can buy it on the rest of the way. As for knowing, the slave will be with you at the same time." Liu Jin said that she did not take the blame.

"Let's go, let's go, isn't it about wandering the rivers and lakes? What's the future in Shanxi? Cousin, you only have half a year. This may be the only free half year in your life. Are you sure you don't want to go?"

"Who said I won't go, I'm just angry that you left without telling me, it's so disrespectful!" Zhu Houde prefers to make decisions at a young age.

"Yes, yes, I have wronged my little cousin. Come on, let's hitch a ride, don't wait for the time." Yan Lide led Zhu Houde to wander around in the back street, and in a short while came to the gate of a different courtyard, where he wrote a letter to a flower house.

"This is Huamanlou, one of the three people you said you must never miss?" When he arrived in front of the house, Zhu Houde couldn't react anymore, and he was not His Royal Highness, who is known for his intelligence.

"Yes, let's take the Hua's car down to the south of the Yangtze River, from the Yangtze River to Sichuan, then to Guizhou, to Guangdong and Guangxi, and then return to Beijing by the canal. What does my cousin think?"

"Don't we have any money? Why should we take Hua's car?"

"Who thinks he has too much money? It's a little bit if he can save a little bit." Yan Lide didn't want to fight with him, and had already knocked on the door.

Zhu Houde stomped his feet fiercely, which obviously coaxed him into being a child!

In Shanxi, no one would not give face to the master of Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion, so the person who notified him soon asked Yan Lide and his party to go, and met Huamanlou who came to welcome him in the yard.

"Qitong, good morning."

"Morning, Brother Yan." Hua Manlou surprised Yan Lide, who was full of energy, but still received them in a gentle and refined manner, and served tea in the living room.

"Qitong, where's Lu Xiaofeng? He said he's going to Sichuan, we're here to find him as a companion." Yan Lide cut to the chase.

"He was invited away by Miss Xue from Shenzhen Villa, and he left overnight."

"So this is sex over friends?" Yan Lide teased.

"If brother Yan doesn't give up, why not walk with me and pass through the south of the Yangtze River, so that Huamanlou can fulfill the friendship of the landlord."

"Huamanlou is still loyal enough." Yan Lide put the high box that he had carried in his hand since he got off the carriage on the table, pushed it to Huamanlou and said, "It's in vain for me to bring a gift to bribe you." .”

Yan Lide hardly concealed his purpose, he knew that Lu Xiaofeng had already left, and he just wanted to go with Huamanlou.

The box has not been opened yet, but Huamanlou can already smell the fragrance of flowers.

"Is it a flower?" Hua Manlou asked.

"Yes, lavender and grass, for you." Yan Lide opened the box, and the living room was filled with a strong fragrance.

"Is it two kinds of flowers?"

"Yes, it's the grass that has a strong fragrance. The purple flowers are bright in color, and the bunches are pungent if you smell it." Yan Lide pushed the small flowerpot towards him again, and said: "This kind of grass He likes a warm, humid and sunny environment, and your small building is his best home."

"There is also this lavender, which sounds like aromatherapy. In fact, the fragrance is more elegant, and it is also purple, and the color is darker than the ratio. But it is wonderful because it can extract essential oils. The third brother asked me to find it. It took a long time to find it in the Western Regions. The most suitable variety will be planted in small buildings in the future, and the extracted essential oil can be used to massage acupuncture points, which is good for your eyes."

"Third Brother is always so careful, thank you Brother Yan." Hua Manlou treasured the two plants close to him, and touched them gently with his fingers.

"Lavender likes sunlight, is heat-resistant, drought-resistant, extremely cold-resistant, barren-resistant, and saline-alkali resistant. It needs sufficient sunshine and good ventilation. It is not easy to survive in the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River, but I believe that the flower planting technique of Huamanlou, you must not have it." It's a problem." Yan Lide laughed, if lavender is useful, it's because of Huamanlou's own superb skills, and it has nothing to do with him.

Hua Manlou thanked him again, and asked, "Shall we go out in time?"

"Everything is up to your arrangement, we will do whatever we want, if you have something to do, go and get busy." Yan Lide didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, and sat in the living room carelessly waiting for Huamanlou to make arrangements.

"Hey, let me tell you, isn't Huamanlou blind? Why are you talking to him about color? Isn't this poking someone's scar? You're too heartless for ordering him to do things." Zhu Houzhao leaned over and whispered .

"Little cousin, your cousin's name is not Hey."

"Do you dare to remove the small print?" Zhu Houzhao muttered, and the two of them were in the same boat.

"If you don't treat him as blind, he is not blind. Do you think Hua Manlou is blind?"

"It's not like, are all people in the Jianghu like this? I heard that he can distinguish his position by listening to his voice, and he also has a powerful martial art move called Liuyun Feixiu." Zhu Houzhao is really interested in Jianghu.

"It has nothing to do with whether he is from the Jianghu, because this person is Huamanlou. Has my little cousin seen many disabled people?"

"not much!"

Well, I can't go on with the persuasion, and I forgot that disability is a punishment from God at this time, and I dare not appear in front of the nobles, while being "dirty and unlucky".

"Ordinary people have all their flaws, and most of them complain about others. One or two self-improvement is a rare person. Huamanlou is not only self-improvement, but also helpful. He has a small building in the south of the Yangtze River. He never closes the door and protects everyone who enters the small building. It is said that the strong help themselves, and the saints cross people. Is Hua Manlou a rare hero? Someone asked Hua Manlou why he was so gentle and calm when he couldn't see. He said, "Actually, being blind is not bad. Although I can no longer see, But you can still hear it, feel it, and sometimes even have more fun than anyone else. Have you ever heard the sound of snowflakes falling on the roof? Can you feel the wonderful sound of flower buds slowly opening in the spring breeze? Vitality? Did you know that autumn winds often carry the fragrance of leaves from distant mountains?’, isn’t it very powerful?”

"It sounds a little fake." Zhu Houde didn't buy it.

"The good virtues of a sage are always close to perfection. It seems a little fake, but Huamanlou has done it. It is not fake, but great kindness. The heart is like a bright moon, happy to know fate, and willing to do good things... If you want to see the world, I will It will show you the best people and experience the most legendary things, don’t think that there are greedy, cunning and sinister people like Huo Xiu, or flattering and contemptuous people like Ma Xingkong, Jianghu has his own demeanor.”

"Okay, since you admire it so much, I'll take a hard look at it." Zhu Houde said arrogantly.

Yan Lide, who was flabbergasted and praised, blinked at the courtyard. Hua Manlou had just walked to the gate of the courtyard, so he could hear and see with his martial arts.
