"That's fine, I'll go there right now, and go to the palace for lunch." Lu Bai told Yunniang to ask Gu Qinghuan if she felt uncomfortable after she woke up, and then left with a wine gourd around her waist. .

Eunuch Bai poured down two or three pots of tea, kept looking at the backyard, stamped his legs anxiously.

Of course, it is also possible to hold back urine.

Seeing Lu Bai approaching, he quickly stood up, "Master Lu, you are finally here. Go, go, I've already asked someone to prepare the carriage."

Lu Bai smiled cheekily, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting, Lao Bai, I just packed it up."

Eunuch Bai believed that there was a ghost in him, obviously he didn't even change his clothes, and there was nothing to talk about cleaning up, but he didn't bother to argue, he was afraid that Lu Bai would find an excuse to delay the time until the afternoon.

He hurriedly led Lu Bai into the carriage parked outside the wine house.

When Lu Bai sat down, he asked the little eunuch to hurry up and drive the car. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and brought the food and wine prepared for Lu Bai to the small table in the car one by one. Pad it, pad it.

Lu Bai asked Eunuch Bai to drink with him, "Drinking together is interesting."

Eunuch Bai smiled, but looked at Lu Bai with respect, "Lord Lu, you scared me to death yesterday."

"I was terrified too."

Lu Bai had lingering fears on his face, "If it wasn't for our backing, we would have died in the palace yesterday, but it's also good, if we lure out the ancestors in the sky, we won't be bullied in the future. If anyone bullies us again, we will Spit him to death with the wine of our ancestors!"

Eunuch Bai laughed dryly along with him, and took the opportunity to bring up the topic of the wine, "Master Lu, this wine is descended from the gods in the sky, it is brewed by immortals, you can get—"

Lu Bai interrupted him, and took the topic away from the drink, "By the way, Lao Bai, what happened to Xiao Zhan, the original commander? Why did I suddenly become the commander, and they agreed to some people?"

He remembered that Eunuch Bai had told him at the beginning that the emperor also wanted to send him to the position of commander, but the influence of the emperor was still there. The East and West factories and the commander of Jinyiwei were both members of the emperor, so they couldn't be easily replaced.

How can it be changed today?

Eunuch Bai smiled wryly, "Lord Lu, considering the noise you made last night, who would dare to object to you being the commander?"

What's more, there was such a big problem in Neishutang, so naturally they tried their best to make up for it. Now the emperor wants to appoint Lu Bai as the commander, and even without the emperor's hard work, as long as he makes a start, many people agree.

Even if those ministers do not agree in their hearts, they have to show their agreement on the surface.

After all, no one would dare to offend a person who made the gods appear in the sky and sent down the gods to save them.

"Xiao Zhan's current commander, Tongzhi, is subordinate to you and assists you in dealing with the affairs of the Jinyiwei." The eunuch Bai said.

Lu Bai nodded in relief, "That's very good."

He went on to say with emotion: "I'm short of someone to help me right now. It would be nice to have Xiao Zhan. Hey, I heard that Master Xiao rose in Yongle City, right?"

Eunuch Bai rolled his eyes inwardly, and said in his heart that this is not nonsense, you know it all too well.

But he still nodded.

"Yongle City is good. It borders my hometown Yancheng, but it is much richer than Yancheng. To tell you the truth, I dreamed of being the lord of Yongle City when I was young." Lu Bai looked longingly, "However, I can't bear to part with my hometown, and I thought that it would be great if only one person could be the lord of two cities."

The smile on Eunuch Bai's face was right.

Of course he knew what Lu Bai meant by these words. He was worried that Lu Bai didn't mention conditions, as long as he mentioned conditions, everything would be discussed.

He echoed: "Don't tell me, Yongle City and Yan City are on the border, and it is suitable for people like Mr. Lu who are civilized and martial arts to rectify them. It's a pity that this capital city cannot be separated from Mr. Lu. How about this, I will turn around and suggest to the emperor. Master Lu recommends candidates for the city lords of these two cities, and I think that with Master Lu's literary skills and military strategy, the person recommended must be as good as Master Lu."

Lu Bai smiled, "That's right, that's right, these two cities need to be rectified. In addition, I think Shuobei City and Ankang City also need to be rectified."

"Uh--"

The smile on Eunuch Bai's face was a little stiff.

Chapter 415 Awakening

"Uh--"

The smile on Eunuch Bai's face was a little stiff.

He didn't expect that Lu Bai's appetite was so big, even if Yancheng and Yongle City were there, he was still thinking about Ankang City and Shuobei City.

Shuobei City is okay.

Not to mention the battle to destroy the city that took place 20 years ago, now that the city is in the hands of Beiman, if Lu Bai wants it, the emperor can write a verbal check. If he really wants to get it, he can let Lu Bai go Find the barbarians.

Ankang City is different.

Ankang City belongs to the Shi family and is the base camp of the Shi family. Although the Shi family in Ankang City is somewhat fragmented after Lu Bai's destruction, once Lu Bai leaves, Ankang City is still in the hands of the Shi family.

Now that the aristocratic family has become Jianzhai's secular power in the imperial court, Lu Bai actually wants to intervene in Ankang City...

The hundred eunuchs didn't know what Lu Bai was planning, so he smiled wryly, "Lord Lu, this Ankang City has been occupied by the Shi family since ancient times. It has been in operation for many years, and they just cooperated with Jianzhai. Yours, take care of it, I'm afraid you have to listen to the Shi family's opinion, right?"

Lu Bai stopped the wine glass in his hand, "Old Bai, it's good if you don't mention this, I was just about to ask you, I remember a few days ago, the Shen family and the Shi family were arguing endlessly over who should cooperate with Jianzhai, why? The winner was decided early this morning?"

Eunuch Bai shook his head, expressing that he didn't know, "I'm also wondering, but the sect chooses the aristocratic family, and the one who pays the highest price wins. It seems that people from the Shi family give more to Jianzhai."

"It's just that?" Lu Bai was puzzled, he felt that there was something else hidden.

Eunuch Bai nodded, "It should be just like that."

Lu Bai felt wrong.

After the Shi family was hit by him in Ankang City, their vitality was severely injured and they lost a lot of money. It is impossible to produce more money than the Shen family in a short period of time.

On the contrary, the Shen family supported King Kang, while the Shi family stood on the side of King Luo, and had a close relationship with King Luo.

Lu Bai was thinking, could it be that Jianzhai is still hostile to the Lu family? After all, the Lu family betrayed them at the beginning, and a sword fairy stole the limelight from their Jianzhai. Now the Shen family supports King Kang, so Jianzhai chose the Shi family ?

Everything is possible.

Lu Bai couldn't figure it out for a while, and then thought of Lian'er.

As the opponent of the Shi family, the Shen family should know why the Shi family won, and he can ask Lian'er another day.

There was a moment of silence in the car.

When we arrived in front of the palace, Lu Bai was about to get out of the car, but the eunuch Bai stopped Lu Bai, "Master Lu, as the Prince's Taibao, is the first rank in the dynasty and has the right to drive in the palace."

He lifted the curtain and showed a token, and then the guard guarding the city gate was shocked and let Lu Bai in.

"Is there such a privilege?" Lu Bai was surprised.

Although the right to enter the palace by car is of little use to Lu Bai, but in the imperial power, this is a great favor.

The car still walked leisurely, but the speed slowed down.

Lu Bai said casually: "Ankang City is really a good place, but it's a pity that it was ruined by the Shi family. Hey, yes, Lao Bai, do you know any good places near the capital? I'm going to build my Haoqimen In the capital."

Eunuch Bai was taken aback, "It was built in the capital?"

Lu Bai saw his surprised face, "Why, what's wrong?"

Eunuch Bai hurriedly shook his head, "It's not wrong. The main eight sects are either built in famous mountains and rivers, or built between isolated peaks, lakes and islands. It's really rare to establish such a prosperous place as the capital."

Lu Bai smiled disdainfully, "That's because they cherish their own brooms, and mine is different."

Then, Lu Bai took the purple gold wine gourd from his waist, and took the initiative to bring the topic to this wine, "Hey, Lao Bai, what do you think of this fairy wine?"

Eunuch Bai was itching in his heart. Hearing Lu Bai's words, he hurriedly asked, "How?"

Lu Bai was playing with the purple gold gourd, flying up and down between his palms, the eunuch Bai watched it, and his eyeballs kept rolling, fearing that it would spill all over the ground.

Lu Bai seemed to be deliberately teasing him, and the Zijin gourd was poured up with his left and right hands again, "This is just one cup, enough for a non-practice person to enter the realm of cultivation, at least in the realm of breaking the sky."

"What!" The eunuch Bai screamed, his sharp voice pierced the silence in the palace, so that the carriage stopped, and the guards guarding the road outside the carriage had something happened, so they hurriedly gathered over.

In the past few days, because of the fire in the Qingxin Palace, the theft of the internal treasury, and the earth-shattering movement yesterday, the emperor blamed their guards for their negligence of duty and cut off the heads of an unknown number of people. These guards dare not take any more risks.

Eunuch Bai opened the curtain of the car, waved to the people outside, indicating that nothing happened, and asked them to disperse before turning around to confirm, "Master Lu, this is not a joke, can an ordinary person enter the realm of cultivation?"

"What the wicked monk in my house said, if you don't believe it..." Lu Bai threw the wine gourd up, "Then don't believe it."

Eunuch Bai's face twitched, and he nodded quickly after seeing him using the wine gourd, "Believe me, this is something bestowed by the gods in the sky. It is so rare for people to enter the realm of cultivation. Immortals play chess to enter Taoism."

"Oh?" Lu Bai was a little surprised.

He didn't know that Lanke Villa really had a romantic relationship with Lanke.

Eunuch Bai said with a smile: "Lord Lu, what you said just now is quite reasonable, Ankang City needs to be rectified, oh, yes, Lord Lu, the emperor has Huangzhuang in the north, and Ningjiang River in the north. , the south is bordered by the capital city, and it only takes half a day to go back and forth, so I think it is very suitable for Lord Lu's Haoqimen."

He shook his head, "It's a pity that I can't decide what I just said, and the emperor needs to nod."

Eunuch Bai looked at Lu Bai with a smile, "My lord, the emperor has always wanted to taste the fine wine in the sky, but unfortunately he couldn't ask for it. If you can give the emperor a glass of this wine today, maybe you can taste it." Get what you want."

"Really?" Lu Bai looked at the purple gold gourd in his hand, feeling a little reluctant.

He looked up at Eunuch Bai, "Old Bai, you may have forgotten something."

Eunuch Bai was puzzled, he forgot something, "Please show Master Lu."

Seeing the carriage stop, Lu Bai stretched his waist, "Although my wine can't make people live forever, it can make the bones of the dead..."

Lu Bai shook the wine gourd in Eunuch Bai's ear, "It's extremely precious."

After all, Lu Bai got out of the car first.

Eunuch Bai was stunned in the carriage.

After getting off the car, Lu Bai looked around, and saw that what they were going to was a quiet place, which was Yuxi Palace.

Eunuch Bai didn't get out of the car for a long time, and Lu Bai couldn't go there by himself, so he looked left and right, saw fish in the pond in front of Yuxi Palace, and went to the side to play with them.

Fish swim in the water.

Originally free and unrestrained, but pushed by a mysterious force, he swam in the water and made a Bagua diagram.

Lu Bai felt that one was not satisfying, so he even pushed up a pool of fish, and the fish flipped over for a while, looking really good.

The eunuch Bai got out of the carriage at this time, seeing Lu Bai's playfulness, he stayed for a while, and after thinking about it, he said carefully: "Master Lu, I don't know who is not good at spreading the word that Master Lu rose from the market In the past, he used to start his business by smuggling salt. Now seeing that Mr. Lu likes to play around so much, it seems that he is really similar to a child in the market."

Lu Bai smiled, "Yeah, when I was a child, I was forced to do nothing. I can't be a good son of a thousand families, so I can only do this to make a living."

Eunuch Bai brought the topic back to Shuobei City, and didn't know what to say for a while.

But his gaze was fixed on the wine gourd in Lu Bai's hand.

Lu Bai shook his arm at this time, and showed off to the eunuch Bai: "Old Bai, my arm was just broken yesterday, but now I can't see it at all. Isn't this wine magical?"

Eunuch Bai's mouth twitched, obviously trying to seduce him.

No, seduce the emperor behind him.

But resurrecting from the dead and stepping into the realm of cultivation, these two points can be said to have poked the emperor's heart. This is something that the emperor cares about more than money. Now that Lu Bai has this thing in his hands, the emperor will covet it without his temptation feet.

Seeing that Eunuch Bai didn't speak, Lu Bai walked over and patted Eunuch Bai on the shoulder, "Old Bai, I'm short of money, and you know that the biggest shortage of this school is money. Where do you think you can get this money?" Ah, oh, yes, I also want to establish Haoqi Academy in the whole country."

"Haoqi Academy?" Eunuch Bai was taken aback.

He knew that Lu Bai wanted money in front of him, but what the hell is this Haoqi Academy?

"A academy of my Haoqimen mainly selects and trains suitable qualified disciples from all over the country, and finally sends them to my Haoqimen." Lu Bai explained with a smile.

"Oh?" Eunuch Bai felt that this idea was quite new.

However, in his view, this is not a strict condition. Most of the academies across the country are built by Confucian scholars or aristocratic families themselves, and have nothing to do with the imperial court. The imperial court is responsible for the annual imperial examinations to select talents.

What was difficult was the money that Lu Bai asked for.

The emperor has a lot of ways to raise money, but the treasury was stolen, and now it has been looted. The most important thing the emperor lacks is money. How can there be any surplus food to help Lu Bai.

The rest of the way is to learn from the Supreme Emperor and give Lu Bai money from the tax every year.

But this...

Eunuch Bai secretly shook his head, why is the emperor so keen on making money?Part of the reason is that his character is greedy for money, and another reason is that the Supreme Emperor left him a mess. When the emperor ascended the throne, the court did not have much money at all.

Fortunately, after the emperor ascended the throne, because of the relationship between the Gu family, the relationship with Qiushanzhuang was not very friendly, and gradually stopped supporting Yiqiushanzhuang, and then it took so many years to slow down.

If the power of the imperial court is used to support Haoqimen to open the door and establish a faction, the emperor will only be able to eat chaff and swallow vegetables in the future.

Eunuch Bai couldn't make up his mind for a while.

While he was hesitating, a young eunuch ran out from Yuxi Palace, and rushed over after seeing the two eunuchs, "Eunuch Bai, Lord Lu, you go in quickly, the emperor is in a hurry, this is already urging me No.20 came out to pick you up."

Eunuch Bai regained his senses, and replied: "I'll go in and report first, and you take Mr. Lu to the side so that you can wait for the emperor to summon you."

The little eunuch responded.

Eunuch Bai raised his hand to Lu Bai, and quickly entered Yuxi Palace.

The little eunuch respectfully led Lu Bai to a nearby pavilion for tea.

Eunuch Bai spent a long time discussing with the emperor. After Lu Bai drank two cups of tea, Eunuch Bai wiped the sweat from his forehead and came out to announce Lu Bai's audience.
