Fu Tang
Chapter 52
Li Congjia walked over happily and asked, "Is your eyes okay?"
Shi Xueting stared at Li Congjia for a long time, then clasped his hands together and said, "I can already see things, it's just a little blurry."
Li Congjia thought for a while and said, "It's not all over yet, let's ask the doctor to take a look."
Shi Xueting didn't answer, but just turned around and said: "Your Majesty has worked hard, please go take a bath and change clothes first."
Li Congjia always felt that Shi Xueting's eyes seemed a little strange, could it be because his eyes had just recovered?
However, his question was quickly answered.
Li Congjia looked at the bright red lip marks on his neck in the bronze mirror, wishing he could wear it back and wipe his neck clean before coming back!
This damn is completely romantic overnight, and still has the rhythm of criminal evidence.
But Li Congjia didn't come here at all. Compared with Li Jingsui, Zhizhou was much more conservative. All the ladies invited were from Yanghuayuan, and Mr. Xiao Lang didn't have any!
After Li Congjia finished bathing and changing clothes, as soon as he came out, he saw Yang Xin reading the manuscript he had written last night, and happened to read "Teaching the Lord to show mercy".
Li Congjia: ...
He walked over with a blank expression, pulled back the manuscript and said, "Have you finished your homework?"
Yang Xin smiled a little wretchedly: "It's done, it's done, Mr. Lang's words are really well written, teach me."
The corner of Li Congjia's mouth twitched slightly: Who didn't want to learn before?Now here again?My child, you have a very problematic mind.
Shi Xueting looked at Li Congjia's embarrassing appearance with a smile, and waited until he had admired enough before slowly saying: "Since Mr. Lang wrote the lyrics on the spot, there must be some clues about Mrs. Tian Wu."
Li Congjia said with a depressed face: "I was so fed up last night that I forgot to mention it."
Fortunately, the alcohol content is not very high these days. If it is the distilled wine he made... I guess he will come back sideways today. It doesn't look like he just has a slight headache now.
Shi Xueting immediately asked: "Drink too much?"
Li Congjia rubbed his temples: "Yes, this group of people can really drink."
The most frightening thing is that he can't do without drinking.
Yang Xin felt a little sorry: "It's all my fault that Mr. Lang suffered."
Li Congjia shook his head. There is no right or wrong in this matter, after all, he is the one to save.
Shi Xueting said, "Chunsheng, go cook two bowls of hangover soup for Lang Jun."
As soon as Chunsheng agreed, Li Congjia immediately jumped up: "Don't, don't, I'm very sober now, and I don't need hangover soup."
Shi Xueting said: "That is effective for the headache after a hangover."
"It's...not very painful either!" Li Congjia thought for a while, compared with the taste of hangover soup, he decided to choose headache!
Shi Xueting was a little helpless: "Since that's the case, I'll help you press it."
Huh?This can have!
Yang Xin watched the two of them walking towards Li Congjia's bedroom, and was quite puzzled, why did they have to go back to the room?Or go to Lang Jun's room?
But Li Congjia and the others didn't notice anything wrong at all. Li Congjia lay directly on Shi Xueting's lap, untied her hair, closed her eyes and waited for the service.
"If Mr. Lang really saves Miss Tian Wu, will he marry Yang Xin?"
Li Congjia felt the feeling of Shi Xueting's slender fingers gently pressing on his scalp, and said lazily, "It's up to you."
Shi Xueting was quite surprised: "Huh?"
Li Congjia smiled and said, "You are the Shishilang's master. You have the final say on this matter. We have done our utmost to rescue Tian Wuniang. What's more, when the Tian family had an accident, her father and brother were all killed. I'm afraid I have to keep my filial piety." Yes, there is no way to get married."
Shi Xueting originally looked down at Li Congjia, but after seeing Fang Yan smiling at Yanyan, he raised his head subconsciously and didn't dare to look again.
But Li Congjia's words really surprised him, he really hadn't thought about Yang Xin's marriage, he always thought it was Li Congjia's decision.
Seeing that Shi Xueting didn't speak, Li Congjia said slowly, "No matter what, Shi Shilang must like it himself. That kid has the right idea. If he doesn't want to, then I'm afraid it will be a marriage or an enemy."
Shi Xueting said: "This matter is up to you."
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for any response, but heard a slight snore instead.
Li Congjia slept for two hours, and when he woke up, he still felt the comfortable pressure on his head.
After opening his eyes, he realized that the room was already a little dark.
Li Congjia rubbed his eyes, his voice was slightly hoarse: "You... haven't left?"
Shi Xueting smiled slightly: "Do you feel better?"
Li Congjia stretched without any image: "Finally, he came back to life, and if he does it a few more times, his life will be shortened!"
Shi Xueting said: "Since that's the case, I will refuse the invitation of the Jiaofang envoy on your behalf."
Li Congjia was taken aback: "The invitation from Jiaofang Envoy? When did it happen?"
Shi Xueting replied: "The invitation was sent by someone at no time."
Li Congjia asked again: "When is the banquet?"
"After three days, Mr. Lang wants to participate?"
Li Congjia said decisively: "Go!"
Shi Xueting frowned: "Drinking alcohol hurts your body."
Li Congjia said with a wry smile: "A person who travels a hundred miles is only a half-ninety, since I have already done it, I must continue to finish it, otherwise my previous sins will not be in vain?"
Shi Xueting was quite helpless, but he couldn't think of any other reason to persuade him.
In fact, Li Congjia had another reason to approach the Jiaofang envoy, that is, he wanted to know more about Zhou Guo's situation. If he could use Zhao Kuangyin's enemies to attack him, it should be a good choice.
Three days later, Li Congjia went to the appointment on time, and this time it was Jiaofang Envoy who was the host, but Li Congjia naturally prepared a generous gift.
After Jiaofang learned about it, he laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, and said in his mouth: "You sent a few new works, which is the best gift. Why did you bring something?"
Li Congjia said with a smile: "I hit it off with the envoy at first sight, and I just worried that some gifts would not catch the envoy's eyes. After all, the envoy came from Daliang. What rare treasures have I never seen?"
The Jiaofang envoy smiled and said: "As expected of a great talent who can utter poems, this mouth is really good at speaking, come on, come on, talk to me more, maybe I am happy, and I will do whatever you want. It's allowed."
Li Congjia was not surprised that the Jiaofang Envoy knew his purpose. After all, Zhizhou would not be willing to endorse for him, so he would definitely inform the Jiaofang Envoy at a suitable time.
Li Congjia felt that there was nothing wrong with this, otherwise he might not have found a chance to mention it.
So he didn't feel embarrassed about what the Jiaofang envoy said, but just smiled and said: "Every word Li Yu said is from the heart, but now I really don't know what to say to make the envoy happy."
The Envoy of Jiaofang pursed his lips and smiled: "No wonder Envoy Dingguojiedu regards you differently."
Um?Li Yu always felt that there was something in the words of the Jiaofang Envoy, so he said cautiously: "The Jiedu Envoy has indeed helped me a lot, and I am also flattered. If it is talent, it is really not worth mentioning."
The Jiaofang envoy pretended to be profound and said: "Jiedu envoys always do what they want, and I can't see through it, but if Li Xiaolang becomes famous in the future, I think I should be grateful to him."
Li Congjia smiled wryly and shook his head: "The Jiedu envoy did persuade me to take the imperial examination, but I'm so busy with many things that I'm afraid I won't be able to calm down and study."
After hearing this, the envoy of Jiaofang had an intriguing expression: "Doesn't Li Xiaolang not want to go to Daliang?"
Li Congjia shook his head: "Now that the burden of the family is on my shoulders, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to go to Daliang."
The Jiaofang envoy looked surprised: "If you can be in the court, you will naturally honor your ancestors, why don't you go?"
Li Congjia pretended to be bitter: "If there is a chance, I still want to find the remains of the elders and let them go to the ground for peace."
The Jiaofang Envoy suddenly approached and asked, "So you really don't want to go to Daliang?"
Li Congjia hesitated for a while: "Although Daliang is good, it is not Li Yu's hometown after all."
The Jiaofang Envoy's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands: "Okay! If you agree that I will never step into the beam, I will let Tian Wuniang go, how about it?"
? ? ? ? ?
Li Congjia's face was full of surprise, this was really too unexpected, it was impossible for him to go to Daliang in the first place!
Li Congjia immediately said: "If Jiaofang makes this statement true, I will definitely not step into the lead in the next life!"
The Jiaofang envoy smiled and said: "Li Xiaolang is quick to talk, and I have a merciless request. Besides, Li Xiaolang will present a poem or word to me every season. I can write whatever I like, how about it?
Li Congjia hesitated and agreed to him. Anyway, when he ran away, he didn't have any poems, so if he had the ability, he would go to Jiangning Mansion to find him!
Jiaofang made a happy smile: "It's very good, but I still need to make a written statement."
Li Congjia looked at the document delivered to him, glanced at it calmly, and found that it was just an agreement that Li Congjia promised not to step into the leader for the rest of his life, and nothing else was mentioned.
Seeing Li Congjia watching carefully, the envoy of Jiaofang said: "I will send someone to come here later on about poetry. Don't worry about Li Xiaolang."
Li Congjia found it funny, is this a threat or a reminder?
Probably both, but these two things really don't fit on paper.
Li Congjia signed the letter happily, and the Jiaofang envoy kept his word, and immediately ordered someone to send Tian Wuniang to Li's house.
Li Congjia spoke a few more words with the Jiaofang envoy, and then left early, and the Jiaofang envoy didn't stop him.
When Li Congjia returned to the mansion, Tian Wuniang had already been settled, and Li Congjia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Xueting asked: "Your Majesty, why did you respond to that Jiaofang envoy?"
Li Congjia looked at his serious face, and said in a low voice: "I promised two things, one is that I will never step into the lead in this life, and the other is that I will write a poem for him every season."
Shi Xueting was immediately relieved when he heard that: "That's good, that's good."
Li Congjia was a little strange: "Are you worried? Why?"
It's so obvious, it's not like you!
Shi Xueting hesitated for a moment and then said: "It is indeed no coincidence that I heard that Jiaofang Envoy opened Jiangning Mansion by accident today."
Li Congjia immediately asked, "What is he here for?"
I'm so curious, the envoy of the Jiaofang should serve the high officials of the royal family all the time, why did he come here so far?
Shi Xueting said in a low voice: "I heard that Jiaofang envoys came to Jiangning Prefecture to recruit beautiful young girls into the palace."
Oh, choose a concubine for Emperor Zhou.
Wait... boy?
Li Congjia looked at Shi Xueting, and found that the other person had a compassionate and indifferent face, and the corner of his mouth twitched. This person is worried that he will be... selected?
Master, wake up, what they want is Xiao Langjun, he is almost weak, how can he be chosen?
Li Congjia patted Shi Xueting on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry."
Shi Xueting was also a little embarrassed, but the surface was still calm.
Li Congjia also wanted to change the subject, so he asked, "Is Tian Wuniang okay?" After a short pause, he asked again, "Have you been bullied?"
Shi Xueting said: "It looks fine. Wu Niang said that she didn't know how to deal with her when she was opened as a teacher. If it wasn't for Mr. Lang, she might not survive."
Li Congjia instantly understood that Tian Wuniang's image did not conform to the current aesthetics.
But it was precisely because of this that Jiaofang Envoy readily agreed, otherwise it would take a lot of work.
Rescuing Tian Wuniang can be regarded as a solution to a worry.
But Li Congjia didn't expect Zhao Kuangyin to get the news so soon.
"I heard that you agreed to the eunuch's unreasonable conditions?" Zhao Kuangyin's expression was unkind, it seemed that Li Congjia dared to nod, and he meant to beat Li Congjia violently.
Li Congjia was not afraid at all, Zhao Kuangyin had no reason to do it, not to mention that if he dared to do it, Li Congjia would be able to resign in anger.
"Is it unreasonable to see if it's worth it?"
Zhao Kuangyin sneered: "Why do you still think it's worth it?"
Li Congjia looked surprised: "Why is it not worth it?"
Zhao Kuangyin suddenly approached and asked in a low voice: "Then do you know what you have lost? Don't step into the leader for the rest of your life? How dare you answer!"
Li Congjia thought: What have you lost?No, I'm taking my life, okay?
Seeing that he was silent, Zhao Kuangyin stretched out his hand to lock the book case, with a thoughtful expression on his face: "A few days ago, someone searched Tian's house for letters with senior officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty. You did not hesitate to agree to such a condition in order to save Tian Wuniang. Could it be... "
Li Congjia quickly asked: "What? Is he really an undercover agent of Southern Tang?"
Zhao Kuangyin laughed inexplicably: "What? Regret it?"
Li Congjia sighed: "I can't say I regret it. I just followed my heart to save Tian Wuniang. Since I dare to promise, I will naturally have a backup."
Zhao Kuangyin was quite interested: "Oh? How do you say it?"
Li Congjia asked: "Dare to ask the envoy, is Da Zhou going to stop here?"
Zhao Kuangyin frowned: "What do you mean?"
Li Congjia asked again: "Whether it is competent or lost, isn't it the ambition to rule the world?"
Zhao Kuangyin said proudly, "That's natural."
According to the national power of the Great Zhou, there is no need for them to hide their ambitions now.
Li Congjia said with a smile: "Since this is the case, the current Daliang may not be suitable to be the capital of the country if we stay at that time."
Zhao Kuangyin came to a sudden: "So you came up with this idea, but even so, you have wasted many years playing for nothing, isn't it a pity?"
Li Congjia shook his head: "Since I have something to ask for, it doesn't matter whether it's a pity or not. What's more, the agreement between me and Jiaofang envoy is that Zhu Dong will not go to Daliang. breach of contract."
Zhao Kuangyin looked at him with a half-smile and said, "You have confidence in yourself, but do you know that all you do is to make wedding dresses for others?"
Li Congjia asked strangely, "How did you say that?"
Zhao Kuangyin sneered: "The eunuch has a nephew, and he was adopted by him, so he won the favor of the saint because of what you wrote."
It's plagiarism again, Li Congjia was a little numb, and just said calmly: "Oh."
Zhao Kuangyin asked, "No idea?"
"No matter how good the poems are, but only if the poems are well written, at most they are just jesters. What the Great Zhou needs now are military generals who can fight like the early Tang Dynasty, capable ministers who can rule the world, and who are good at making generals and prime ministers. It's right."
Zhao Kuangyin laughed twice: "Well said!"
Li Congjia finally managed to fool Zhao Kuangyin, and returned home exhausted physically and mentally. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Yang Xin rushing over, grabbed his arm and said, "Mr. to go!"
Li Congjia:! ! !What kind of trouble is this!
Li Congjia, who was full of anger, disappeared after seeing Tian Wuniang, leaving only helplessness.
Tian Wuniang's eyes, which were originally gentle and watery, have now been shown to be full of grief and fortitude.
Tian Wuniang was still courteous, and after saluting to Li Congjia, she said: "Thank you Li Langjun for saving your life, but Wuniang is not what she used to be, even if you don't say thank you, I can only thank you, but don't worry, Mr. In the future, if Mr. Lang has an assignment, Wu Niang will definitely go through fire and water, and will not hesitate to do so."
Li Congjia thought: If I am reduced to asking you for help, I should wipe my neck and kill myself.
Li Congjia waved his hand: "Don't mention this matter, just now Yang Xin said you were leaving? Why?"
Tian Wuniang said softly: "Wuniang is wearing a sinful body, so it's not good to stay here."
Li Congjia smiled and said, "Since you are here alive, it means that there is no danger at all. Why worry?"
Tian Wuniang's eyes turned cold: "Whether there is a crime or not is just a word from those in power."
This is on point, Li Congjia took a look at Yang Xin, feeling rather resentful that iron can't be made into steel, look at his little lady!
"Don't worry, I'm sure, you can stay here with peace of mind, after a while, just come with us." Li Congjia waved his hand.
Tian Wuniang was a little surprised: "Go? Are you leaving?"
Li Congjia repeated the words that had fooled the Jiaofang envoy before, and Tian Wuniang immediately had no doubts.
She hesitated for a while and gritted her teeth and said, "To be honest, I want to leave because I want to find a chance to take revenge!"
"Revenge?" Li Congjia laughed: "Do you know who your enemy is?"
Tian Wuniang said coldly: "Zhao Kuangyin!"
Zhao Kuangyin?Li Congjia's head is full of question marks, he is a Jiedu envoy, how can he compare with other people's little magistrate?
Perhaps seeing Li Congjia's doubts, Tian Wuniang said: "Actually, daddy is just a chicken that people kill chickens to scare monkeys!"
Li Congjia can't laugh or cry, little lady...do you ever describe your father like that?
However, what Tian Wuniang said may be true.
"What's going on? Tell me."
Tian Wuniang said in detail: "Nowadays, there are conservatives and main fighters in the court. The conservatives feel that the pace of Da Zhou's offensive is too fast recently, and the pressure on the military rations is too great. They should stop and recuperate until the treasury is sufficient before continuing. But the main fighters I feel that this opportunity is once in a thousand years, and I should grit my teeth and take down Nantang, and after Nantang is eliminated, the Nantang treasury and grain depot will be used as military rations, so that we can continue."
Li Congjia was terrified when he heard it, and he kept calm and said: "Zhao Kuangyin is the main fighter?"
Tian Wuniang nodded. Needless to say, Tian Tongpan must be a part of the conservatives. There was a conflict of fundamental ideas. No wonder Zhao Kuangyin wanted to be ruthless
"Revenge is not in a hurry, Zhao Kuangyin is not something you can do at will, stay here and plan slowly."
Tian Wuniang didn't say anything, but returned to her yard in silence.
After Tian Wuniang left, Li Congjia turned to Shi Xueting and said, "Zhao Kuangyin learned from the nomads to use war to support war. It's just that this method may not be suitable for the Central Plains. He will always stumble."
But Shi Xueting said: "At present, it seems that this tactic is well executed by him."
Li Congjia nodded regretfully: "It would be great if I could contact some conservative officials in Zhou Dynasty. Through them, I can find a way to trip Zhao Kuangyin. Even if I can't kill him, try to drag him here without using soldiers!"
Shi Xueting said: "The Jiaofang Envoy may be a breakthrough."
Li Congjia frowned: "Jiaofang envoy? He is just an eunuch, and eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics in Zhou Kingdom."
Shi Xueting shook his head and said: "If that's the case, why does Zhao Kuangyin dislike Jiaofang envoys? Jiaofang envoys are always with the emperor of Zhou, even if he doesn't make friends, he won't make enemies, right?"
Li Congjia reached out to hold the case: "It's really possible, well, I'll find time to communicate with the Jiaofang envoy."
Shi Xueting instructed: "Be careful, Tian Tong's sentence is so miserable, and now in Jiangning Mansion is Zhao Kuangyin who covers the sky with one hand, if you let him know that you have evil intentions, he will never let it go."
Li Congjia nodded: "I will be careful."
After the discussion, Li Congjia felt that whether Zhao Kuangyin could get his wish would actually depend on Guo Rong, but it was impossible for him to run to contact Guo Rong.
Just when Li Congjia was struggling, Jia Shiqing, the head of the nursing home in the mansion, ran in and said, "Your Majesty, the young lady of the Tian family has robbed our horse and ran away!"
Li Congjia:? ? ? ? ?
He looked at Jia Shiqing and asked, "How did you run away?"
Jia Shiqing said out of breath, "That's...she...she ran to the stable, led a horse, and ran all the way through the back door."
Li Congjia almost collapsed: "I'm asking how you let her run away!"
Nima, do so many nursing homes live for nothing?Can't stop a little lady?Don't you want to do it?
Just when Li Congjia was about to explode, he saw Yang Xin limping in with a bruise on his face.
Li Congjia was startled. Yang Xin's kung fu was taught by Shi Xueting himself. Even though he started late, he had few rivals among his peers. How did he become like this?
"What's going on with you? Who hit you?"
Yang Xin said with a dejected look on his face, "I was beaten by Wu Niang."
Li Congjia:? ? ? ?Did I wake up the wrong way today?
Shi Xueting stared at Li Congjia for a long time, then clasped his hands together and said, "I can already see things, it's just a little blurry."
Li Congjia thought for a while and said, "It's not all over yet, let's ask the doctor to take a look."
Shi Xueting didn't answer, but just turned around and said: "Your Majesty has worked hard, please go take a bath and change clothes first."
Li Congjia always felt that Shi Xueting's eyes seemed a little strange, could it be because his eyes had just recovered?
However, his question was quickly answered.
Li Congjia looked at the bright red lip marks on his neck in the bronze mirror, wishing he could wear it back and wipe his neck clean before coming back!
This damn is completely romantic overnight, and still has the rhythm of criminal evidence.
But Li Congjia didn't come here at all. Compared with Li Jingsui, Zhizhou was much more conservative. All the ladies invited were from Yanghuayuan, and Mr. Xiao Lang didn't have any!
After Li Congjia finished bathing and changing clothes, as soon as he came out, he saw Yang Xin reading the manuscript he had written last night, and happened to read "Teaching the Lord to show mercy".
Li Congjia: ...
He walked over with a blank expression, pulled back the manuscript and said, "Have you finished your homework?"
Yang Xin smiled a little wretchedly: "It's done, it's done, Mr. Lang's words are really well written, teach me."
The corner of Li Congjia's mouth twitched slightly: Who didn't want to learn before?Now here again?My child, you have a very problematic mind.
Shi Xueting looked at Li Congjia's embarrassing appearance with a smile, and waited until he had admired enough before slowly saying: "Since Mr. Lang wrote the lyrics on the spot, there must be some clues about Mrs. Tian Wu."
Li Congjia said with a depressed face: "I was so fed up last night that I forgot to mention it."
Fortunately, the alcohol content is not very high these days. If it is the distilled wine he made... I guess he will come back sideways today. It doesn't look like he just has a slight headache now.
Shi Xueting immediately asked: "Drink too much?"
Li Congjia rubbed his temples: "Yes, this group of people can really drink."
The most frightening thing is that he can't do without drinking.
Yang Xin felt a little sorry: "It's all my fault that Mr. Lang suffered."
Li Congjia shook his head. There is no right or wrong in this matter, after all, he is the one to save.
Shi Xueting said, "Chunsheng, go cook two bowls of hangover soup for Lang Jun."
As soon as Chunsheng agreed, Li Congjia immediately jumped up: "Don't, don't, I'm very sober now, and I don't need hangover soup."

Shi Xueting was a little helpless: "Since that's the case, I'll help you press it."
Huh?This can have!
Yang Xin watched the two of them walking towards Li Congjia's bedroom, and was quite puzzled, why did they have to go back to the room?Or go to Lang Jun's room?
But Li Congjia and the others didn't notice anything wrong at all. Li Congjia lay directly on Shi Xueting's lap, untied her hair, closed her eyes and waited for the service.
"If Mr. Lang really saves Miss Tian Wu, will he marry Yang Xin?"
Li Congjia felt the feeling of Shi Xueting's slender fingers gently pressing on his scalp, and said lazily, "It's up to you."
Shi Xueting was quite surprised: "Huh?"
Li Congjia smiled and said, "You are the Shishilang's master. You have the final say on this matter. We have done our utmost to rescue Tian Wuniang. What's more, when the Tian family had an accident, her father and brother were all killed. I'm afraid I have to keep my filial piety." Yes, there is no way to get married."

Li Congjia rubbed his eyes, his voice was slightly hoarse: "You... haven't left?"
Shi Xueting smiled slightly: "Do you feel better?"
Li Congjia stretched without any image: "Finally, he came back to life, and if he does it a few more times, his life will be shortened!"
Shi Xueting said: "Since that's the case, I will refuse the invitation of the Jiaofang envoy on your behalf."
Li Congjia was taken aback: "The invitation from Jiaofang Envoy? When did it happen?"
Shi Xueting replied: "The invitation was sent by someone at no time."
Li Congjia asked again: "When is the banquet?"
"After three days, Mr. Lang wants to participate?"
Li Congjia said decisively: "Go!"
Shi Xueting frowned: "Drinking alcohol hurts your body."

The Jiaofang envoy smiled and said: "As expected of a great talent who can utter poems, this mouth is really good at speaking, come on, come on, talk to me more, maybe I am happy, and I will do whatever you want. It's allowed."
Li Congjia was not surprised that the Jiaofang Envoy knew his purpose. After all, Zhizhou would not be willing to endorse for him, so he would definitely inform the Jiaofang Envoy at a suitable time.

The Jiaofang envoy smiled and said: "Li Xiaolang is quick to talk, and I have a merciless request. Besides, Li Xiaolang will present a poem or word to me every season. I can write whatever I like, how about it?
Li Congjia hesitated and agreed to him. Anyway, when he ran away, he didn't have any poems, so if he had the ability, he would go to Jiangning Mansion to find him!
Jiaofang made a happy smile: "It's very good, but I still need to make a written statement."
Li Congjia looked at the document delivered to him, glanced at it calmly, and found that it was just an agreement that Li Congjia promised not to step into the leader for the rest of his life, and nothing else was mentioned.
Seeing Li Congjia watching carefully, the envoy of Jiaofang said: "I will send someone to come here later on about poetry. Don't worry about Li Xiaolang."
Li Congjia found it funny, is this a threat or a reminder?
Probably both, but these two things really don't fit on paper.
Li Congjia signed the letter happily, and the Jiaofang envoy kept his word, and immediately ordered someone to send Tian Wuniang to Li's house.
Li Congjia spoke a few more words with the Jiaofang envoy, and then left early, and the Jiaofang envoy didn't stop him.
When Li Congjia returned to the mansion, Tian Wuniang had already been settled, and Li Congjia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Xueting asked: "Your Majesty, why did you respond to that Jiaofang envoy?"
Li Congjia looked at his serious face, and said in a low voice: "I promised two things, one is that I will never step into the lead in this life, and the other is that I will write a poem for him every season."
Shi Xueting was immediately relieved when he heard that: "That's good, that's good."
Li Congjia was a little strange: "Are you worried? Why?"
It's so obvious, it's not like you!
Shi Xueting hesitated for a moment and then said: "It is indeed no coincidence that I heard that Jiaofang Envoy opened Jiangning Mansion by accident today."
Li Congjia immediately asked, "What is he here for?"
I'm so curious, the envoy of the Jiaofang should serve the high officials of the royal family all the time, why did he come here so far?
Shi Xueting said in a low voice: "I heard that Jiaofang envoys came to Jiangning Prefecture to recruit beautiful young girls into the palace."
Oh, choose a concubine for Emperor Zhou.
Wait... boy?
Li Congjia looked at Shi Xueting, and found that the other person had a compassionate and indifferent face, and the corner of his mouth twitched. This person is worried that he will be... selected?
Master, wake up, what they want is Xiao Langjun, he is almost weak, how can he be chosen?
Li Congjia patted Shi Xueting on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry."
Shi Xueting was also a little embarrassed, but the surface was still calm.
Li Congjia also wanted to change the subject, so he asked, "Is Tian Wuniang okay?" After a short pause, he asked again, "Have you been bullied?"
Shi Xueting said: "It looks fine. Wu Niang said that she didn't know how to deal with her when she was opened as a teacher. If it wasn't for Mr. Lang, she might not survive."
Li Congjia instantly understood that Tian Wuniang's image did not conform to the current aesthetics.
But it was precisely because of this that Jiaofang Envoy readily agreed, otherwise it would take a lot of work.
Rescuing Tian Wuniang can be regarded as a solution to a worry.
But Li Congjia didn't expect Zhao Kuangyin to get the news so soon.
"I heard that you agreed to the eunuch's unreasonable conditions?" Zhao Kuangyin's expression was unkind, it seemed that Li Congjia dared to nod, and he meant to beat Li Congjia violently.
Li Congjia was not afraid at all, Zhao Kuangyin had no reason to do it, not to mention that if he dared to do it, Li Congjia would be able to resign in anger.
"Is it unreasonable to see if it's worth it?"
Zhao Kuangyin sneered: "Why do you still think it's worth it?"
Li Congjia looked surprised: "Why is it not worth it?"
Zhao Kuangyin suddenly approached and asked in a low voice: "Then do you know what you have lost? Don't step into the leader for the rest of your life? How dare you answer!"
Li Congjia thought: What have you lost?No, I'm taking my life, okay?
Seeing that he was silent, Zhao Kuangyin stretched out his hand to lock the book case, with a thoughtful expression on his face: "A few days ago, someone searched Tian's house for letters with senior officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty. You did not hesitate to agree to such a condition in order to save Tian Wuniang. Could it be... "
Li Congjia quickly asked: "What? Is he really an undercover agent of Southern Tang?"
Zhao Kuangyin laughed inexplicably: "What? Regret it?"
Li Congjia sighed: "I can't say I regret it. I just followed my heart to save Tian Wuniang. Since I dare to promise, I will naturally have a backup."
Zhao Kuangyin was quite interested: "Oh? How do you say it?"
Li Congjia asked: "Dare to ask the envoy, is Da Zhou going to stop here?"
Zhao Kuangyin frowned: "What do you mean?"
Li Congjia asked again: "Whether it is competent or lost, isn't it the ambition to rule the world?"
Zhao Kuangyin said proudly, "That's natural."
According to the national power of the Great Zhou, there is no need for them to hide their ambitions now.
Li Congjia said with a smile: "Since this is the case, the current Daliang may not be suitable to be the capital of the country if we stay at that time."
Zhao Kuangyin came to a sudden: "So you came up with this idea, but even so, you have wasted many years playing for nothing, isn't it a pity?"
Li Congjia shook his head: "Since I have something to ask for, it doesn't matter whether it's a pity or not. What's more, the agreement between me and Jiaofang envoy is that Zhu Dong will not go to Daliang. breach of contract."
Zhao Kuangyin looked at him with a half-smile and said, "You have confidence in yourself, but do you know that all you do is to make wedding dresses for others?"
Li Congjia asked strangely, "How did you say that?"
Zhao Kuangyin sneered: "The eunuch has a nephew, and he was adopted by him, so he won the favor of the saint because of what you wrote."
It's plagiarism again, Li Congjia was a little numb, and just said calmly: "Oh."
Zhao Kuangyin asked, "No idea?"
"No matter how good the poems are, but only if the poems are well written, at most they are just jesters. What the Great Zhou needs now are military generals who can fight like the early Tang Dynasty, capable ministers who can rule the world, and who are good at making generals and prime ministers. It's right."
Zhao Kuangyin laughed twice: "Well said!"
Li Congjia finally managed to fool Zhao Kuangyin, and returned home exhausted physically and mentally. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Yang Xin rushing over, grabbed his arm and said, "Mr. to go!"
Li Congjia:! ! !What kind of trouble is this!
Li Congjia, who was full of anger, disappeared after seeing Tian Wuniang, leaving only helplessness.
Tian Wuniang's eyes, which were originally gentle and watery, have now been shown to be full of grief and fortitude.
Tian Wuniang was still courteous, and after saluting to Li Congjia, she said: "Thank you Li Langjun for saving your life, but Wuniang is not what she used to be, even if you don't say thank you, I can only thank you, but don't worry, Mr. In the future, if Mr. Lang has an assignment, Wu Niang will definitely go through fire and water, and will not hesitate to do so."
Li Congjia thought: If I am reduced to asking you for help, I should wipe my neck and kill myself.
Li Congjia waved his hand: "Don't mention this matter, just now Yang Xin said you were leaving? Why?"
Tian Wuniang said softly: "Wuniang is wearing a sinful body, so it's not good to stay here."
Li Congjia smiled and said, "Since you are here alive, it means that there is no danger at all. Why worry?"
Tian Wuniang's eyes turned cold: "Whether there is a crime or not is just a word from those in power."
This is on point, Li Congjia took a look at Yang Xin, feeling rather resentful that iron can't be made into steel, look at his little lady!
"Don't worry, I'm sure, you can stay here with peace of mind, after a while, just come with us." Li Congjia waved his hand.
Tian Wuniang was a little surprised: "Go? Are you leaving?"
Li Congjia repeated the words that had fooled the Jiaofang envoy before, and Tian Wuniang immediately had no doubts.
She hesitated for a while and gritted her teeth and said, "To be honest, I want to leave because I want to find a chance to take revenge!"
"Revenge?" Li Congjia laughed: "Do you know who your enemy is?"
Tian Wuniang said coldly: "Zhao Kuangyin!"
Zhao Kuangyin?Li Congjia's head is full of question marks, he is a Jiedu envoy, how can he compare with other people's little magistrate?
Perhaps seeing Li Congjia's doubts, Tian Wuniang said: "Actually, daddy is just a chicken that people kill chickens to scare monkeys!"
Li Congjia can't laugh or cry, little lady...do you ever describe your father like that?
However, what Tian Wuniang said may be true.
"What's going on? Tell me."
Tian Wuniang said in detail: "Nowadays, there are conservatives and main fighters in the court. The conservatives feel that the pace of Da Zhou's offensive is too fast recently, and the pressure on the military rations is too great. They should stop and recuperate until the treasury is sufficient before continuing. But the main fighters I feel that this opportunity is once in a thousand years, and I should grit my teeth and take down Nantang, and after Nantang is eliminated, the Nantang treasury and grain depot will be used as military rations, so that we can continue."
Li Congjia was terrified when he heard it, and he kept calm and said: "Zhao Kuangyin is the main fighter?"
Tian Wuniang nodded. Needless to say, Tian Tongpan must be a part of the conservatives. There was a conflict of fundamental ideas. No wonder Zhao Kuangyin wanted to be ruthless
"Revenge is not in a hurry, Zhao Kuangyin is not something you can do at will, stay here and plan slowly."
Tian Wuniang didn't say anything, but returned to her yard in silence.
After Tian Wuniang left, Li Congjia turned to Shi Xueting and said, "Zhao Kuangyin learned from the nomads to use war to support war. It's just that this method may not be suitable for the Central Plains. He will always stumble."
But Shi Xueting said: "At present, it seems that this tactic is well executed by him."
Li Congjia nodded regretfully: "It would be great if I could contact some conservative officials in Zhou Dynasty. Through them, I can find a way to trip Zhao Kuangyin. Even if I can't kill him, try to drag him here without using soldiers!"
Shi Xueting said: "The Jiaofang Envoy may be a breakthrough."
Li Congjia frowned: "Jiaofang envoy? He is just an eunuch, and eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics in Zhou Kingdom."
Shi Xueting shook his head and said: "If that's the case, why does Zhao Kuangyin dislike Jiaofang envoys? Jiaofang envoys are always with the emperor of Zhou, even if he doesn't make friends, he won't make enemies, right?"
Li Congjia reached out to hold the case: "It's really possible, well, I'll find time to communicate with the Jiaofang envoy."
Shi Xueting instructed: "Be careful, Tian Tong's sentence is so miserable, and now in Jiangning Mansion is Zhao Kuangyin who covers the sky with one hand, if you let him know that you have evil intentions, he will never let it go."
Li Congjia nodded: "I will be careful."
After the discussion, Li Congjia felt that whether Zhao Kuangyin could get his wish would actually depend on Guo Rong, but it was impossible for him to run to contact Guo Rong.
Just when Li Congjia was struggling, Jia Shiqing, the head of the nursing home in the mansion, ran in and said, "Your Majesty, the young lady of the Tian family has robbed our horse and ran away!"
Li Congjia:? ? ? ? ?
He looked at Jia Shiqing and asked, "How did you run away?"
Jia Shiqing said out of breath, "That's...she...she ran to the stable, led a horse, and ran all the way through the back door."
Li Congjia almost collapsed: "I'm asking how you let her run away!"
Nima, do so many nursing homes live for nothing?Can't stop a little lady?Don't you want to do it?
Just when Li Congjia was about to explode, he saw Yang Xin limping in with a bruise on his face.
Li Congjia was startled. Yang Xin's kung fu was taught by Shi Xueting himself. Even though he started late, he had few rivals among his peers. How did he become like this?
"What's going on with you? Who hit you?"
Yang Xin said with a dejected look on his face, "I was beaten by Wu Niang."
Li Congjia:? ? ? ?Did I wake up the wrong way today?
