Chapter 6 Famous traitor, a wonderful flower
"The broom star has been unlucky since he was a child. Let alone making money, he can't even farm. If it weren't for Yang Deli, he would have starved to death! This man...he actually got rich?"
"Look at those purses, they are bulging, there are so many!"
That unlucky guy actually got rich, the villagers still think this is a dream.
Yang Zhongshun returned home all the way, his wife Zhao was still lying on the bed, and when she saw him coming back, she asked, "Why are you coming back so late?"
"The broom star..." Yang Zhongshun thought of the fact that those businessmen almost fought for the tofu earlier, and he really felt incredible.
"The broom star is unlucky again?" Zhao sighed: "That man, I don't know if it's because I have been ill for a long time or something, but I am timid, and I am afraid when I mention him."
Yang Zhongshun shook his head, "He made that tofu for five cents a piece. He sold two large barrels earlier and made a lot of money."
Li Shi was startled, "He actually made a lot of money? Can't he? He has been unlucky since he was a child. When did he make money?"
Yang Zhongshun smiled bitterly and said, "My husband saw it with his own eyes. Then Yang Deli also said that Jia Ping'an believed that those businessmen would come without fear of any bastards. You didn't see that Liu Jia, in order to monopolize the opportunity to buy tofu, squatted down since yesterday afternoon." Standing outside the gate of the fort, the whole body is soaked in dew."
"Are those businessmen crazy?" Mrs. Zhao couldn't help taking a breath, and then her body was involved, she couldn't help crying out in pain, and then passed out.
Yang Zhongshun couldn't help being stunned, his first thought was that he was restrained.
"That broom star!" He hurriedly sent someone to invite the doctor, and then said silently: "Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun, bless the broom star who can't defeat a family..."
…
Yang Zhongshun's family was in chaos, but Jia's family was happy.
Yang Deli is counting money.
"How much?" Jia Ping'an was also a little happy.
Yang Deli looked up, crying with tears in his eyes, "Auntie..."
"Don't cry." Seeing that he was going to report work to his mother who passed away, Jia Pingan felt a little headache, thinking that you should report when you report, what are you crying about.
"One hundred pieces of tofu, five hundred coins! Five hundred coins!" Yang Deli held up the copper coins in both hands, his eyes were full of stars, "Peace, I will sleep on it at night."
Jia Pingan said angrily, "As you wish!"
Yang Deli then went to buy mutton. At noon, Jia's house smelled of mutton that he hadn't smelled for many years.
"Where are you going to eat safely?" Seeing the broom star traveling, everyone quickly backed away to keep their distance.
Just before, a businessman said that he went to ask the eminent monk, and the eminent monk said that as long as there is no grudge with Sao Baxing, then it is fine to keep a distance of three steps away, so everyone followed suit, but the distance was only seven or eight steps away.
Jia Pingan held a big bowl, smiled and nodded when he saw people. He is very busy, not only to make tofu, but also to record a lot of knowledge from his previous life, so if he wants to understand Yangjiawu, he can only come out during the meal time.
Everyone saw that his big bowl was covered with a layer of mutton slices, how greedy!
There is no meat in food, and in Datang, mutton is the first meat.
In rural areas like Yangjiawu, those few families are the only ones who can eat mutton all year round, and those few families don’t eat it a few times a year. According to them, every time you eat mutton, you have to gnaw the meat clean, and then boil the bones several times until there is no mutton smell.
Who covered the big bowl with mutton slices? Nothing.
So there were more drooling people in the village. It was lunch time, and everyone looked at the wheat rice and vegetables without meat in their bowls, and felt that it was extra ridiculous.
"The broom star can eat mutton?"
…
The city of Chang'an is still immersed in grief.
In the Tai Chi Hall, Li Zhi's eyes were red and swollen, and he knelt there blankly.
His father went.
The emperor who was respected by foreigners and called Tian Khan went, leaving the huge Tang Dynasty to the young him.
He knew that his father wanted to stay longer, to teach him something, to increase his prestige, and to slowly transform some courtiers into his courtiers...
For example, Li Ji, his father meant that because he had no kindness to Li Ji, he could not be reused at that time. So his father demoted Li Ji out of Beijing when his body felt inappropriate. It is kindness to call Li Ji back after he ascends the throne.
There were heavy footsteps behind him.
"Your Highness."
Li Zhi stood up, showing a little weakness, "Uncle."
Standing inside the door was a slightly fat man. His eyes were slightly squinted, as if smiling, but his majesty followed his gaze.
This is the uncle of the Tang Dynasty, the prime minister of the dynasty, and the chief minister of the first emperor, Sun Wuji.
"Your Highness belongs to the world, so don't be too sad."
"Yes." Li Zhi bowed his head.
Changsun Wuji raised his head slightly, and said to several servants: "Your Highness's health is very important, you must wait, it is always admonishing."
The servants bowed their heads in response, very respectful.
Immediately, Changsun Wuji showed a smile, approached and said: "Your Highness is pure filial piety, if the late emperor's spirit in heaven knows it, he will surely be happy."
Li Zhi is only in his twenties, but he has been worried about his father's illness, and even has gray hair.
"However, there are some people who have no mercy and lower their arms."
It's rude to hang your arms at the emperor's funeral!
Changsun Wuji looked at his nephew gently, until he raised his head and asked: "Who?" Then he slowly said: "Xu Jingzong!"
Xu Jingzong is a man of Li Zhi, and he is known as the loyal dog of the East Palace. This person's literary talent is good, and he was deeply loved by the late emperor. This person's experience is a bit interesting. In the former Sui Dynasty, when he encountered Yu Wenhua and the rebellion, his father cried and begged, which saved his life.
Then he went to Wagangzhai again, but ended up on the street, and finally surrendered to Datang. Maybe it's because he has experienced life and death, so he is very so... say whatever you want, and do whatever you want.
Such a temperament is logical to rush to the street, right? But Lao Xu is different, he will look at the boss's eyes and handle things effectively, so he has been promoted all the way.
Say what you want, do whatever you want, everyone will think that it is impossible to appear on the body of a high-ranking official, wrong! Let's take a look at Lao Xu's wonderful performance...
This shows that the officials were not sad about the death of Empress Changsun, but Xu Jingzong went too far, pointing at Ouyang Xun and laughing.
MMP! My queen, my first wife has left, you are not sad, but you are still laughing!
Old Li is angry!
So Xu Jingzong was kicked out of the capital, but he was recruited back within a few years, and was reused, becoming the right concubine of the prince Li Zhi.
It stands to reason that a lesson has been learned, should this Donggong loyal dog learn to behave?
No matter, no, this man immediately made a rude move at the funeral of the late emperor, which can be called a strange flower in the political arena of the Tang Dynasty.
Follow-up, Xu Jingzong still has many wonderful things, which make people laugh or disdain.
Although this person is wonderful, but he can't stand up to his advantages to make the emperor's heart flutter!
—I will do whatever the boss says, I will never go west when the boss says east, and I will never catch chickens when the boss says chase the dog.
Although it is a strange flower, it is absolutely loyal, the number one thug...and capable of handling things.
Li Zhi tilted his head slightly, avoiding his uncle's gaze, and then said embarrassingly: "Although Xu Jingzong is bad in every way, he acts recklessly and does not lie. I think..."
Uncle, that is my loyal dog, just let him go.
Changsun Wuji sighed, his eyes still warm, "Pheasant slave, your heart is too soft, it's not good!".
He stood with his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "The first emperor is about to die. If you are soft-hearted, the officials will treat you as nothing."
Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The servants trembled all over, afraid of being cannon fodder.
If there is a conflict between the crown prince who is about to ascend the throne and Sun Wuji, the uncle and chief Tuogu minister, there will be an earthquake in the court.
Eldest Sun Wuji looked at his nephew with gentle eyes, "But Xu Jingzong is your man after all... The old minister just learned that there was a farmer in Huazhou who died when Emperor Gaozu was born, and then everything went badly."
Li Zhi frowned, "This should be a coincidence."
"Yes! The old minister also thought it was a coincidence."
The atmosphere immediately became harmonious. Just as a servant was about to come up to serve tea, Changsun Wuji's face darkened, causing him to back away in fright.
"But at the moment the first emperor died, that farmer just fell ill."
Li Zhi raised his head, his eyes became more serious, "That's a broom star!"
Whenever a comet drags its long tail and flies across the distant sky like a broom, the world will panic, saying that someone is going to be unlucky.
"Yes." Changsun Wuji's eyes became more stern, "The old minister wished he could cut him into pieces, but he fell ill and killed His Majesty, what would happen if he was killed?"
He looked at Li Zhi with kindness in his eyes, and Li Zhi couldn't help feeling a little cold.
"The old minister was worried that if you moved him, something unpredictable would happen to you, Your Highness, so he suppressed it."
Li Zhi also thought of this, suppressed the killing intent, and said lightly: "In this case, it's a trick of the mouse."
Changsun Wuji nodded, also depressed.
Eldest Sun Wuji sighed, "The governor of Huazhou just fell ill, and the veteran thought that Xu Jingzong was an excellent successor."
He bowed his hand and resigned, and the servants looked confused.
There is a broom star in Huazhou, and then you suggested to get Xu Jingzong there, because you want old Xu to die there.
Li Zhi was silent for a moment, and his embarrassment disappeared without a trace. He said lightly: "Let Xu Jingzong come."
He just stood there, his eyebrows gradually wrinkled.
Footsteps came from far and near, and a fair-skinned official came.
This person is Xu Jingzong.
Xu Jingzong came in with a respectful face, and the moment Li Zhi turned around, he said solemnly: "Your Highness looks more and more majestic, and I am terrified."
According to the arrangement, Li Zhi will ascend the throne next month. As the chief loyal dog, Xu Jingzong felt that he was about to ascend to the next level. He might be able to work as a prime minister in a few years. At that time, he would look down on the officials. What a pleasure!
Thinking of this, Xu Jingzong couldn't help laughing proudly.
Others would bear their emotions, but this strange flower smiled unabashedly. Thinking that he dared to laugh wantonly at the funeral of Empress Zhangsun, you can know what kind of **** this man is.
Do whatever you want!
Why!
Li Zhi had a headache. If it weren't for Lao Xu's loyalty and ability to handle affairs, he would definitely drive this person out of the capital, as far as he could.
"A censor impeached you for being rude."
"This is slander, shameful slander!" Xu Jingzong panicked, knelt down and said, "Your Highness, I am loyal, and I swear to die to serve Your Highness!"
Li Zhi sighed: "Go, go to Huazhou."
"Your Highness!"
Xu Jingzong yelled, then burst into tears, and said while crying: "I am loyal to Your Highness, and I want to serve His Highness all my life. If I don't go to Huazhou, I..."
He stepped forward on his knees and hugged Li Zhi's thigh. She raised her head and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Highness, I have no other intentions towards Your Highness! Whatever Your Highness says, you will do whatever you want. Your Highness will let you commit suicide. Your Highness..."
He turned his eyes, then got up and rushed towards the wooden pillar.
Is this a suicide attempt?
Li Zhi just wanted to call him to stop, but Xu Jingzong ran slower and slower. When he reached the wooden pillar, it was no different from walking. At such a speed, it would be difficult to hit a bag, let alone a death.
This wonderful flower! It's really helpless!
Li Zhi covered his forehead and said, "Go, I'll get you back after a while."
…
The traitor Xu innocently looked at the sky: I am wronged! What about recommended tickets? What about support?
