Everyone in the hall was shocked.
There are those who can see the fire clearly, as if they understand the emperor's intentions.Today's move is just to gather the military power in the hands of the vassal king in a reasonable way.
It was Cao Yan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, who got up to speak.
The emperor's eyes showed surprise: "Cao Aiqing, please tell me."
Cao Yan looked around at the vassal kings and princes, and said in a loud voice: "There are twelve vassal kings in Dasheng, and there are three thousand or six thousand soldiers in the palaces of the princes. If these troops are assembled, tens of thousands can be obtained... "
"You fart!" A vassal lord jumped up against the case, glaring and said, "The government soldiers are protecting the fief, if all the rebels are attacked, who will guard the fief?!"
All the vassal kings and princes finally panicked, and when they saw someone rising up to argue, they agreed one after another.
"That's right! There are also refugees and bandits in our fief. If there are no government soldiers, wouldn't we have soldiers on their necks, and we're going to waste our lives?!"
"Cao Yan, why are you at ease! As the Minister of the Ministry of War, you can't even gather the strength of the army. Are you in the Ministry of War for nothing!"
"Cao Shangshu's words are wrong. If many government soldiers are gathered together, there may be chaos."
"Yes, yes, please think twice, Your Majesty!"
The emperor looked down quietly, without saying a word.
Cao Yan said calmly: "Nowadays, the rebels are raging, the world is in turmoil, and the people are in dire straits. As subjects, do the kings want to ignore the danger of the country? Dare I ask what the kings are thinking!"
Kings: "..."
So far, no one is a fool.
Why celebrating the imperial concubine's birthday? This is a fucking scam!The emperor just took advantage of the power of the rebel army to win over the military power in the hands of the vassal king!
A vassal who has been deprived of military power is no different from a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out, no matter how fierce it is, it loses its threat.
The emperor is so calculating!
There was silence in the Fuyan Palace, and the crowd did not dare to express their anger, and the feudal king was too blocked by Cao Yan to refute.
What can they say?Do you say that you just want to sit idly by and don't want to hand over the soldiers?
Lou Wei's jaw was about to drop.
He couldn't help looking at Lou Yu, trying to find resonance in him, but he saw Lou Yu hanging his head and playing with the bamboo fan, calmly, turning a deaf ear to him.
Did A Yu not understand?
Your Majesty is going to cut down the feudal clan!
After a long time, the emperor suddenly said softly: "Let's not mention this matter for now. The kings and princes have not been to the capital for a long time, and I miss them very much. Why don't the kings and princes stay in the capital for a little longer and accompany me?"
Is this to put them under house arrest? !
The vassal king and the princes were shocked, the emperor came for real this time.
A vassal king got up and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to talk about the past with you, but that my fief is close to Huzhou and has been affected a lot. I must return to the fief in time to guard the city."
"Don't worry," the emperor said with a smile, "the city has its own garrison commander. The world is dangerous now. You might as well settle down in the capital and return to the fief after the rebellion is suppressed."
Why not late!At that time, it is estimated that his soldiers will be recruited by the garrison!
He has become a polished commander!
Another vassal king also said: "Your Majesty, when I left the fief, Zhuojing was seriously ill, and I was worried. Please allow me to return home as soon as possible."
"Oh?" The emperor was surprised, "There is no one in the fief who can treat you? I can send an imperial doctor there to treat the princess."
The face of the vassal king was pale: "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, the clumsy thorn is not a serious problem, but I am worried about it, and my heart is chilled."
Another vassal was unable to sit down.
No one dared to speak anymore, the emperor smiled and said: "The capital is prosperous, and the kings and princes will surely have a good time."
All the kings and princes bowed their heads in silence.
The emperor was condescending, seeing everyone's expressions in his eyes.
Almost everyone was frowning, but Lou Yu was the only one staring at the meal in front of him with a pure expression.
He couldn't help calling names: "A Yu, would you like to stay in the capital for a longer time?"
Lou Yu: "..."
This is called "A Yu", the emperor really doesn't pay attention.
He stood up and saluted, his eyebrows were handsome and graceful, and he didn't look gloomy at all: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I have long been yearning for the capital. Four years ago, because I was young, I didn't know how to appreciate the bustling scenery of the capital, but now I do."
"Oh?" The emperor became interested, "What do you understand?"
Lou Yu said bluntly: "The capital is beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, and the people are also beautiful."
"Hahahaha," the emperor laughed heartily, "A Yu has indeed grown up."
He meant something: "If you like, you can stay in the capital for a few more days, and I will send some lovely people to accompany you."
Lou Yu was pleasantly surprised: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Ron!"
The rest of the feudal princes and princes squinted: I'm afraid this person is not a fool!
idiot!traitor!Mad!
When Lou Yu said this, the rest of the people couldn't refuse at all.
A birthday banquet begins with joy and ends in silence.
Although the emperor has not officially ordered the harvest of military power, but he left all the vassals and princes in the capital, which is a disguised threat.
What he was waiting for was that the kings took the initiative to hand over their military power.
He wanted to weaken the power of the vassal king, but he kept it hidden, unwilling to reveal his thoughts.
Using the concubine's birthday banquet to trick the kings and princes into Beijing, and taking away the military power of the vassals in the name of crusade against the rebels, this hypocritical behavior is really shocking and disgusting.
Who can know the people present?
Xie Xin, Du Qian, and Cao Yan were all contributing to the flames, while the rest of the officials remained silent.
Fan Yusheng couldn't help but look at his grandfather, only to see his grandfather sitting upright, with his brows drawn down and his eyes downcast.
It's not that the Fan family doesn't support the reduction of feudal clans, it's just that it's not suitable right now.
His Majesty connived at the rebels, causing the lives of the people to die and the people to live in dire straits, but he was not in a hurry to put down the rebellion, but only wanted to take this opportunity to persecute the vassal.
It is really……
He couldn't help sighing secretly.
After the banquet was over, Lou Yu was surrounded by a group of vassal princes and princes as soon as he stepped out of the hall.
Lou Wei also showed a little bit of loyalty, bit the bullet and stopped in front of Lou Yu, persuading him with kind words: "Everyone has something to say, and A Yu is right, the capital city is really fun."
Who doesn't know that Lou Yu said the right thing?But I just can't understand his stupid and spineless appearance.
Holding the hundred taels of gold bestowed by the imperial court, Lou Yu asked innocently, "Isn't the capital city fun?"
Everyone: "..."
well!Why did King Qing give birth to such an idiot!
No, King Qing himself is an idiot!
They left the palace with sighs.
Lou Weizhu stood next to Lou Yu, worried, "A Yu, what should we do now?"
"What should I do?" Lou Yu was puzzled, "The capital is so big, it's not enough for you to play with?"
His hands were sore, and he handed the gold box to Lou Wei: "Brother Wei, please do me a favor."
Lou Wei had no choice but to hold the box for him bitterly.
As soon as the two of them left the palace gate, Feng Erbi immediately came up to him, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, I see the faces of the lord and the princes are all gloomy, but is there any change in the palace?"
"It's okay," Lou Yu pointed to the gold, "This is the gold that His Majesty rewarded you, take it."
Feng Erbi:? ? ?
Why did His Majesty suddenly reward His Highness with gold?
Confused, he took the box back into the carriage in a daze.
A group of people returned to Hou Mansion.
Not long after returning to the Hou's mansion, a servant from the palace came to the door.
Behind the waiter were four beautiful and enchanting...boys? !
"Your Highness, this is the beauty that His Majesty specially ordered for you."
Lou Yu: "..."
Well said cute!Why are they all men!
Oh, by the way, he once performed a show in front of an angel, and the emperor knew that he had exerted "pretentious power" on Huo Yan.
But it can't be concluded that he only likes men!
Seeing that Lou Yu was dumbfounded and didn't react, the servant's expression froze: "Your Highness, don't forget to thank you."
Lou Yu came back to his senses: "Elder-in-law, don't blame me, it's just that the beauties in the capital are extraordinary and refined, I was dazzled by them. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift!"
The servant just laughed, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is still thinking about the kaleidoscope, the prince will get it quickly, so that the servant can take it back and present it to His Majesty."
"Second pen, go get it." Lou Yu ordered.
After getting the kaleidoscope, the servant left Hou's mansion with a smile on his face. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell the beautiful boy to serve Lou Yu well.
The four beauties knelt down together and said in a charming voice, "I hope Your Highness will take pity on you."
Lou Yu: "..."
Who will take pity on him?
Feng Erbi also had a headache and asked, "Your Highness, how to arrange them?"
"Take it back to the courtyard first." Lou Yu turned and left without changing his expression.
This is a beauty bestowed by the emperor, can he refuse it?Moreover, these four beautiful boys could be seen as the emperor's blatant eyeliner.
He strode back to the courtyard, and because of the four beautiful boys behind him, everyone in the Hou Mansion looked sideways.
Huo Yan in the courtyard couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
Lou Yu gave him a look, Huo Yan understood, and bowed his head in a docile gesture.
After entering the room, Lou Yu slumped on the soft couch, looked at the four people in front of him, and asked with a smile, "What's their name?"
The boy in white: "Nu Hanshuang."
The youth in Tsing Yi: "Slave ink bamboo."
The young man in red clothes: "Slave Fusang."
The boy in blue: "Slave Iris."
Lou Yu smiled and commented: "The name fits well with the color of your clothes."
Four people: "I made His Highness laugh at you."
Lou Yu asked again, "What will happen?"
Hanshuang: "Nu Shan Danqing."
Mo Zhu: "This slave is good at playing flute."
Fusang: "Slaves are good at throwing pots."
Iris: "Slave is good at manipulation."
Press correction is massage, which is a practical and good skill.
He clicked the iris: "This son is not feeling well, you come and give me a massage, and the three of you step back first."
Yuanwei was overjoyed, walked to Lou Yu's side, and said softly, "Your Highness, please lie down."
He was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was born with delicate features, snowy skin, vermilion lips, and a small vermilion mole at the corner of his eye, which added a bit of charm.
Lou Yu turned around and lay down on the couch.
A pair of hands landed on his back shoulders, and the cuffs were probably covered with incense powder. When he pressed it, there was a gust of fragrance.
I have to say that the skill of this master Iris is really good, comparable to the massage masters in modern high-end clubs.
After sipping a cup of tea, Lou Yu felt so refreshed that he could hardly keep his eyelids open.
He murmured: "Your name is Yuanwei, right? I will correct this son in the future, and it will not lose your benefits."
"His Royal Highness Nu Xie."
Iris smiled lightly, her voice was mellow, very pleasant, with a hint of ecstasy.
Lou Yu felt that the emperor thought highly of him, he was only 14 years old!
"Huo Yan." He called out.
Huo Yan lowered his head and approached.
"Learn how to serve others with Iris."
The young man raised his eyes lazily, his eyes were moist, and his fair cheeks were stained with a blush, which was more touching than the exquisitely made-up iris.
Huo Yan was startled, how could he make such an association!
Is it blasphemy to compare Lou Yu with an iris? !
He secretly blamed himself, felt ashamed in his heart, and it just happened to show something on his face.
Lou Yu thought in his heart: Huo Yan has been with him for a long time, and his acting skills have really improved. This little expression of perfection is really flawless.
He sat up suddenly, looked at Huo Yan's expression, and sneered: "Why? Still think of yourself as the second son of Huo in the past? You are just a lowly slave now, how dare you feel ashamed!"
Iris stepped aside and stood quietly waiting.
Huo Yan lowered his head and lowered his eyes, the veins on his forehead popped out.
"You have such a boring temperament, if it weren't for this face, how could this son like you!"
Feng Erbi boldly said: "Your Highness, I think Iris looks better."
"Why?" Lou Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
Feng Erbi smiled and said: "It is said in the book that beauty is like jade, and it is more suitable for slaves to look at irises."
"What do you know?" Lou Yu stretched out his hand to pinch Huo Yan's jaw, "Wouldn't it be happier to conquer an imposing man than the weak Liu Fufeng?"
Feng Erbi was disgusted: "I still think that how can a rough person compare to a beauty made of jade?"
"The 'rough man' you speak of was once the head of the princes of the capital."
As soon as the words fell, Lou Quan's voice came from outside the door: "Brother, can you open the door?"
Lou Yu immediately let go of Huo Yan, went to bed and straightened his clothes.
Feng Erbi went to open the door.
Hearing the news that His Majesty rewarded the beautiful boy, Lou Quan was startled for a while before coming forward with his skirt lifted.
No matter how stupid your majesty is, he will not reward beauties indiscriminately. Could it be that my younger brother really admires masculinity?
When she stepped into the house, she saw the handsome and flexible Iris.
Lou Quan cut to the chase: "Brother, I heard that His Majesty gave you four beauties, why are they all men?"
"Sister, you've lived in the capital for a long time, don't you know that being a man is a very elegant thing?" Lou Yu asked back.
He read so many travel notes, not in vain.
The travel notes mentioned many times the attitude of the high society in Dasheng towards masculinity. Many places are proud of "raising beautiful men", and Nanfeng Pavilion is everywhere.
Lou Quan's eyes showed concern: "You are still young, you can't go too far."
"Sister, don't worry, I just let Iris massage and correct for me."
Lou Quan just breathed a sigh of relief, but he heard him ask: "Sister, Your Majesty allows me to spend more time in the capital. I wonder if there is a famous Nanfeng Pavilion in the capital? I want to see it."
Lou Quan: "..."
Her elder brother's face is as white as jade, and his eyebrows are as handsome as a picture. If he went to Nanfeng Hall with such a refined appearance, who might take advantage of it!
"No, you are not allowed to go."
Lou Yu didn't want to go at all, he just said it on purpose, anyway, he believed that sister would definitely object.
He lowered his head along the way: "Forget it, anyway, there are Iris and the others. The beauties bestowed by His Majesty must be no worse than those in Nanfeng Pavilion."
Lou Quan: "..."
She said earnestly, "Don't hurt yourself."
"I know." Lou Yu quickly changed the subject, "Sister, do you know if there are any merchants from the Western Regions in the capital? I want to inquire about the kaleidoscope."
The fact that the emperor exchanged one hundred gold for the kaleidoscope of Prince Qing's son has already been heard on the street.
Everyone is naturally curious about something that even His Majesty and the noble concubine admire.
There are already quite a few nobles from aristocratic families who have been secretly looking for merchants from the Western Regions to inquire about the Kaleidoscope.
Lou Quan also knew that this was a rare item, and felt sorry for his younger brother being robbed of the toy, so he said, "Don't worry, Sister has asked people to inquire about it."
"Thank you sister, I'm a little tired and want to rest."
Lou Yu got up early and was tense in the palace, so he was indeed a little tired.
After Lou Quan left, he swung the iris back, leaving behind Feng Erbi and Huo Yan, who fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up, "Kaleidoscope" was already popular in Beijing.
All are looking for a kaleidoscope.
Lou Wei is no exception.
When he had nothing to do, he tried to find a merchant from the Western Regions in the market.Ada, who is recovering from his injuries, accompanied him.
"Why is A Yu so lucky to get three at a time?" Lou Wei sighed enviously.
Ah Da didn't know that Lou Yu was Prince Qing's son before, but after hearing Lou Wei's explanation, he was stunned for a long time.
He is much more sensitive than Lou Wei, and will not be fooled by Lou Yu's perfunctory explanations.
He could see clearly all the way that Prince Qing's heir son and Zheng Yi were clearly different, and each had their own ghosts.
Of course, Prince Qing's son helped a lot along the way, and Ada was very grateful, and would not really seek to prove the relationship between Prince Qing and Zheng Yi.
Hearing Lou Wei's words, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Perhaps he is blessed by the Holy Spirit."
"That's right." Lou Wei muttered, "Stupid people have stupid luck."
Ah Da: "..."
Who is stupid?
He had already heard from Lou Wei about the banquet.Based on what he had seen and heard on the way, he concluded that Prince Qing's son must not be a stupid person.
Although he didn't know what Lou Yu was thinking, he had an intuition that Lou Yu must have something in mind.
"Your Highness, Master Yu has helped us a lot. If you are free, go talk to him more often."
Lou Wei nodded, "Okay."
He was about to go to Ning Enhou's mansion when he suddenly heard a voice above his head: "Your Majesty Wei, can we have a drink together?"
Lou Wei raised her head, it was still the same teahouse as last time, but last time a few spectators were gone, only two teenagers.
One in white and one in green.
He shook his head: "No, I have something else to do."
Fan Yusheng shook the folding fan lightly, "You don't want to find the kaleidoscope?"
"You don't dare to come up, do you?" The young man in green sneered while leaning on the railing.
Lou Wei said in a daze, "You take me to find the kaleidoscope first, and then I will drink tea with you."
The boy in green: "..."
This Prince Cang looked dumbfounded, how could he say such choking words?
As expected of playing well with Lou Yu!
Fan Yusheng laughed and said, "Your Majesty Wei doesn't care if you don't drink."
He never force others.
But this time he gave up, but Lou Wei hesitated.
"Do you really know where to buy a kaleidoscope?" Lou Wei looked directly at Fan Yusheng.
The young man's eyes are clear, black and white are distinct, and he can see to the end at a glance.
Fan Yusheng's hand shaking the fan was slightly stagnant, and he couldn't help laughing: "Forget it, I'll take you there."
The young man in green: "Brother Fan, how can you do this?"
Didn't you agree to drink tea before taking him there?
Fan Yusheng has already gone downstairs.
He did not lie to Lou Wei, relying on the power of Fan Mansion, it was easy to find merchants from the Western Regions and get news about Kaleidoscope.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or luck, but there is actually a peddler in the capital selling kaleidoscopes.
The favorite of the emperor and the imperial concubine suddenly became the trend in the capital.
The peddler is not stupid. The price of the kaleidoscope, which was originally sold cheaply, has soared all the way, which is extremely crazy.
But yes, the emperor even exchanged a hundred gold for a kaleidoscope, do other people dare to buy it cheaper than the emperor?
The rest of the wealthy families also got the news, and they secretly competed for bids. The price of the kaleidoscope has reached an extremely crazy situation.
Fan Yusheng and the others came to a Xiajiuliu inn.
This is where the merchants landed.
If it is not a native of the capital, few people will know the existence of this inn.
So Lou Wei searched for a long time but couldn't find it.
There are mixed fish and dragons here, and Fan Yusheng and the others are all dressed in brocade, with a luxurious temperament, which is extremely eye-catching.
However, the Fan Mansion is well-known, and everyone knew Fan Yusheng, so they didn't dare to confront her.
They went straight to the backyard of the inn without hindrance.
Before Lou Wei went in, he heard someone shouting, "190 taels! Is there any bid?"
Lou Wei: "..."
190 taels of gold, he really didn't have any.
He still owes the Du Mansion 200 taels of silver, and the congratulatory gift for the noble concubine was also bought by borrowing money from the Du Mansion.
Fan Yusheng saw his embarrassment at a glance, and couldn't help laughing: "If I give you a kaleidoscope, how will Prince Wei repay me?"
Lou Wei stared wide-eyed, wouldn't it be repayable if he sold him?
He shook his head hurriedly: "No need! No need!"
It's too expensive!
But Fan Yusheng stepped into the courtyard and said loudly: "200 taels."
The courtyard is quiet.
The hawker couldn't help looking at Fan Yusheng, and reminded: "Young master, we are talking about gold."
"nature."
The merchant asked the price again, but no one in the court responded.
Who doesn't recognize Mr. Fan's family?Who dares to ignore him?
Soon, Fan Yusheng and the merchant settled the money and the goods.
He played with the kaleidoscope and asked Lou Wei: "I wonder if Prince Wei has time to drink tea now?"
Lou Wei's eyes were fixed on it: "If you give me a look, I'll drink tea with you."
Several people returned to the teahouse.
The young man in green couldn't wait any longer, and urged: "Brother Fan, take a quick look, and give it to me after you finish!"
Lou Wei also watched eagerly.
Fan Yusheng unscrewed the cover and took a closer look. Even though he has extensive knowledge and extensive knowledge, he was so amazed that he lost his voice.
However, there is such an astonishing feast of flowers in a small tube.
Wonderful.
Mr. Fan, who had always been calm, lost all color, which shows how exquisite the kaleidoscope is.
The young man in green can't wait to grab it immediately.
Fortunately, Fan Yusheng quickly regained consciousness, handed the kaleidoscope to the young man in green, and sincerely praised: "I don't know who is a skilled craftsman who can make such a wonderful thing. I really want to see it."
The green-clothed boy could no longer hear what he said.
He kept asking in his heart: How is it possible?How is this possible?Obviously this tube is no longer than the length of your hand, how can you fit so many flowers in it!
Lou Wei was beyond curious.
Fan Yusheng raised his fan and said, "If you answer my few questions truthfully, I will give this to you, how about it?"
"Brother Fan!" The young man in green was in a hurry, and took the time to reply, "You might as well sell him to me!"
Fan Yusheng: "You don't know how to answer my questions."
The young man in green glared at Lou Wei, who blinked innocently.
"What are you going to ask me?"
Fan Yusheng asked with a smile: "That day in the tea house, I heard you called Yu Shizi 'Mr. Yu', and Yu Shizi explained the reason to you. Why is that? Could it be that you have met on the road?"
"Why are you asking me that?"
Lou Wei is not really stupid, their vassal princes and princes are in a bad situation right now, so he can't talk nonsense.
He drank a cup of tea and asked expectantly, "I drank the tea too, can you show me?"
Fan Yusheng: "..."
It's not easy to deal with people with solid eyes.
Forget it, he doesn't bully people anymore.
So he asked the young man in green to pass the kaleidoscope to Lou Wei.
The young man in green was reluctant to part with him, and stared at Lou Wei several times.
Lou Wei rolled his eyes too much at Du's house, but he didn't care too much, and rolled his eyes straight up.
God!It is really colorful!It's amazing!
How on earth is this made!
When Lou Wei turned around, the color of the flowers inside suddenly changed, it was amazing!
He admired it for a long time and completely forgot about Fan Yusheng and others.
The young man in green was impatient: "Have you seen enough! Come back after seeing enough!"
Lou Wei had no choice but to return it with a dejected face.
"How?" Fan Yusheng smiled elegantly, "If you are willing to answer me, you can play with this thing for as long as you like."
Lou Wei stared at him blankly, then suddenly said: "Is this thing worth two hundred gold?"
Fan Yusheng smiled: "If you don't want to take advantage, you can answer a few more questions."
"That's not what it means," Lou Wei shook his head, "It's just that I've heard that the Fan family is famous, but I didn't expect you to be able to spend so much money all at once."
Fan Yusheng: "..."
The young man in green was angry: "Lou Wei, what do you mean?!"
"I don't mean anything else," Lou Wei waved his hands again and again, apologetically, "I'm just curious."
Fan Yusheng suppressed his smile slightly, but still said: "If you solve my doubts, I can also solve your doubts."
Lou Wei: "Actually, I'm not too interested."
He stood up and cupped his hands: "Thank you Mr. Fan for your generous loan, I'll go back first."
Fan Yusheng didn't stop him anymore.
The young man in green said angrily: "It's a shame, we borrowed him to watch the kaleidoscope, but he didn't answer a single question!"
"It's not bad."
Fan Yusheng put away his folding fan.
If you have a ghost in your heart, you will not dare to speak out.
In connection with the events before and after the kaleidoscope, Fan Yusheng had reason to suspect that this object had something to do with the son of King Qing.
With the evidence of Lou Wei's evasion and refusal to answer, he is even more certain that the seemingly domineering and crazy Prince Qing's son is destined to be extraordinary.
The aristocrats of the aristocratic families are vying to buy the same kaleidoscope from His Majesty, and Ning Enhou's Mansion is no exception.
Xie Mao was recuperating in bed, Madam Hou felt sorry for him, so she sent someone to buy a kaleidoscope at a high price to relieve his boredom.
"My lord, is this kaleidoscope really so magical?"
The head of the couch stuck his eyes on the kaleidoscope, and asked cautiously.
He heard rumors outside that he was crazy, and seeing that his son couldn't put it down, he couldn't help but feel itchy.
Is there anything good that their young master hasn't seen?It must be extremely miraculous to make Young Master so fascinated. If he is lucky enough to take a look, he will have no regrets in this life!
Xie Mao glanced at him when he heard the words, and said contemptuously: "That's it, nothing to see."
"How could it be, Madam bought it for 250 gold!" Chang Sui exclaimed.
Xie Mao's face darkened: "Didn't you tell me before that Fan Yusheng only spent two hundred gold?"
"It's rising again now," Chang Sui sighed, "They are all unscrupulous dealers, selling a few kaleidoscopes can earn gold that others will never see in their entire lives."
Xie Mao sneered: "In the end, Lou Yu didn't provoke it. If he hadn't offered the kaleidoscope, those merchants wouldn't have made much money."
"My lord, calm down. I heard that the princess also sent someone to buy a kaleidoscope to make the prince happy. The merchant has been found, but he has no money!"
Xie Mao said angrily: "Last time Lou Yu stole so much money from the family in Yinlou, it made my mother very angry!"
He slowly rubbed the kaleidoscope, his eyes rolled: "Go, you call him."
Lou Yu was a little confused when he received the "summon".
Xie Mao healed up so quickly, did the scar forget the pain?Still want to rush to find abuse?
He was reclining on the couch, and Iris knelt down to beat his legs, with a flirtatious look.
"Why is Erlang looking for this son?" He asked lazily.
The long follower: "Second Young Master said that he has something good to share with His Highness."
Good stuff?
Lou Yu immediately thought of the kaleidoscope, after all, the kaleidoscope is the hottest thing in the capital now.
He became interested in an instant, stood up and said: "Okay, I will go after packing up my clothes. You go back and report to your life first."
He also told Yuanwei: "You call the three of them and go to see Erlang with me."
Iris retreated to call for someone.
There are only three Lou Yu left in the house.
Feng Erbi chuckled and said, "I'm afraid it's Mr. Xie Er who wants to show off with His Highness."
But who would know that the merchant who sold the kaleidoscope was someone arranged by His Highness?
Lou Yu rubbed his chin, he didn't expect the effect to be so good.
Originally, he just wanted to find the emperor and the noble concubine to speak for him, to advertise the kaleidoscope, but unexpectedly, the emperor gave him a hundred gold directly.
The emperor spent a hundred gold in exchange for the kaleidoscope, who would dare to spend less than the emperor?
Ever since, the kaleidoscope sold for a sky-high price.
In the past few days, he has earned a full three thousand gold by selling kaleidoscopes!
It is gold, not silver.
How much salt would he have to sell to earn so much?It is even more lucrative than selling salt!
It can be seen how extravagant these big families in the capital are!
With these funds, the dark forces in the capital will be better developed.
Huo Yan said, "Maybe it won't be that simple."
"Yes."
Lou Yu smiled, "He probably doesn't just want to show off to me."
Feng Erbi: "Ah? Then what should I do?"
"What are you afraid of? Soldiers come to block you, water comes to cover you." Lou Yu tidied up his clothes and stepped out of the house, "Let's go and meet him."
He led Huo Yan and Feng Erbi, with four beautiful boys behind him, rushed to Xie Mao's yard in a hurry.
Xie Maochang took a look, why bring so many people?Do you mess up?
Lou Yu stepped into Xie Mao's room again.
The house faces south, is sunny, open and bright, and has a quiet and elegant environment. It is indeed a good place for recuperation.
Ning Enhou's Mansion is really rich.
Lou Yu smiled and sat down beside the table, and asked Xie Mao: "Why is Erlang looking for me? But bored? It just so happens that His Majesty sent me a few beauties, each with their own unique skills, how about letting them relieve your boredom?"
"Lou Yu, what's the use of saying this?"
Xie Mao shook the kaleidoscope in his hand, and said proudly: "I'm afraid you don't know, the kaleidoscope in the capital is sold for three hundred gold. I heard that your sister asked someone to buy it, but she couldn't even get 100 taels of silver."
Lou Yu had a smile on his face, but the smile in his eyes was restrained: "My sister is also your sister-in-law."
"Do you think you are losing money?" Xie Mao ignored his reminder, and taunted himself, "If you didn't present it to your empress, maybe you could earn six hundred gold with two kaleidoscopes."
Feng Erbi on the side couldn't listen anymore.
Is Xie Erlang sick?
Lou Yu's expression was tense, but he pretended to be free and easy and said: "It was originally dedicated to His Majesty and Your Majesty, so how can you suffer? Your Majesty is kind and generous. Didn't you also give this son a hundred gold and four beauties?"
"Lou Yu, if you want to play, I can lend it to you." Xie Mao suddenly kindly extended the kaleidoscope to him.
Lou Yu: "..."
Was this child raised too innocently?Does cheating make such a low-level person?
He asked bluntly, "Is your kaleidoscope broken?"
Xie Mao: "..."
He did hit the kaleidoscope when he was angry, but now he can't see the flowers.
Lou Yu frowned: "Do you still want to blame me? Then I owe you three hundred gold?"
He knew that Mrs. Hou bought it for 250 gold, and Xie Mao said it was [-] gold, but he deliberately blackmailed him.
However, is this conspiracy too childish?Lou Yu didn't even notice.
Of course, if he were Lou Wei, he might really be fooled.
Xie Mao was told his thoughts, his face flushed suddenly, he was ashamed and angry, and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about! How could I blackmail you! What qualifications do you have to let the young master blackmail you!"
"Xie Mao!"
Lou Yu was really "overwhelmed with anger", and suddenly jumped up, rushed in front of him, snatched the kaleidoscope angrily, and threw it heavily on the ground!
"Crackling-"
After a crisp sound, the kaleidoscope fell apart.
Lou Yu snorted coldly: "Okay, now you can go to your mother and cry, saying that I broke your kaleidoscope."
After some silence, Xie Mao suddenly let out a roar:
"Lou Yu! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"
He never thought of breaking the kaleidoscope!
He still wants to go to the merchant to repair it!
But now it's all fucking broken!
Xie Mao couldn't believe it, how could Lou Yu be so arrogant!Why on earth is he!
A cowardly son who is about to be demolished!Why on earth is he!
In a fit of anger, Xie Mao jumped off the bed with one leg, picked up the jade pillow and threw it on Lou Yu's head!
Feng Erbi screamed, and was about to step forward to stop him, but one person was faster than him.
There was another "pa", the jade pillow collided with Huo Yan's arm, and it shattered to the ground.
Lou Yu learned some boxing skills in his spare time, so he could have avoided it, but he hesitated when it came time.
Seeing the broken jade pillow, he secretly sighed.
Feng Erbi didn't see it, but Huo Yan's eyes were like lightning.
He clearly saw Lou Yu turning on his toes, making a gesture to dodge, but in the end he gave up.
Is he planning to be bloodied by Xie Mao!
Once this guess emerged, for some reason, Huo Yan suddenly became angry.
His whole face was darkened, his handsome eyes were dark, and his anger was like a sharp edge.
Lou Yu turned his head and was about to thank him, when he met his eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt a little guilty.
The words of thanks were not spoken.
He twisted back and kicked Xie Mao's abdomen. Xie Mao was unsteady on one leg, and fell directly to the ground, just falling on the broken glass, bleeding from his palm.
The servant hurried forward to rescue him.
Lou Yu's face was gloomy: "Who dares to touch my son! I'll charge him with murdering the royal family!"
The servants froze for a moment.
The second son had to be rescued, but Prince Qing couldn't be messed with, so what should we do!
Immediately, a servant rushed to the main courtyard to inform the mistress.
Lou Yu stepped on Xie Mao firmly, and said condescendingly: "Xie Mao, your Xie family has become so rampant that you even dare to murder the royal family?"
"You are a fart! You are a lunatic! A lunatic!" Xie Mao yelled in pain.
Lou Yu smiled: "I'm a fart? I'm the nephew of the Holy Majesty today. If you say I'm a fart, what about the Majesty? What is the Majesty to you?"
Xie Mao shut up instantly.
"Xie Mao, you humiliated me in the street, planned to frame me, and then hit me with a jade pillow, do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
Lou Yu's eyes were cold and he was exerting force on his feet.
"Lou Yu! How dare you hurt me! Are you afraid that your sister will have a hard time in the future?!"
Frightened, Xie Mao threatened Lou Yu with Lou Quan.
As soon as you enter the Hou Mansion, it is as deep as the sea.
Lou Quan is a married woman, the daughter-in-law of the Xie family has to be restrained by the Xie family, even if the Xie family beats and scolds, Lou Quan can only bear it.
Xie Mao's words directly touched Lou Yu Nilin.
He retracted his feet, stared at him coldly for a while, and suddenly turned around and walked outside without saying a word.
As soon as he arrived outside the courtyard, he ran into Mrs. Hou and Lou Quan who came in a hurry.
He rushed to Lou Quan at once, crying bitterly: "Sister! How much you have suffered in the Hou Mansion! Sister! Just now Xie Mao threatened me with your life, saying that if I dare to fight back, Madam Xie will severely punish you!" Grind you!"
Madam Hou was about to speak: "..."
"Sister! I'm so uncomfortable!"
Lou Yu supported Lou Quan's arm, crying unbearably.
It's not pretending, but I really feel sorry for Lou Quan.
The fact that Xie Mao can say that shows how the Xie family treats sister when he is not around!
Seeing him cry for the first time, Feng Erbi was so panicked and overwhelmed that his heart ached so much that he started crying too.
Lou Yu has always been the backbone of everyone in Gyeongju.
He is gentle and powerful, pouring fire into the river, never showing the slightest weakness, even when facing blood for the first time, he can still pretend to be calm in front of others.
Right now, he was crying bitterly because of Xie Mao's threat.
Huo Yan frowned, even though he knew that he had an element of acting in it, he couldn't help feeling agitated.
For the vassal king and the prince, the capital is like a dangerous place.
When Lou Yu enters the capital, it is like crossing a river with a mud boat. If one is not careful, there will be changes in the prongs.
Even so, Lou Yu never showed the slightest worry.
The longer he gets along with each other, the more he admires Lou Yu.
Originally, he thought that tears would not exist on this person.
Huo Yan stared at Lou Yu.
The young son's eyes were red, tears rolled down, his pitiful appearance was really worrying
There are those who can see the fire clearly, as if they understand the emperor's intentions.Today's move is just to gather the military power in the hands of the vassal king in a reasonable way.
It was Cao Yan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, who got up to speak.
The emperor's eyes showed surprise: "Cao Aiqing, please tell me."
Cao Yan looked around at the vassal kings and princes, and said in a loud voice: "There are twelve vassal kings in Dasheng, and there are three thousand or six thousand soldiers in the palaces of the princes. If these troops are assembled, tens of thousands can be obtained... "
"You fart!" A vassal lord jumped up against the case, glaring and said, "The government soldiers are protecting the fief, if all the rebels are attacked, who will guard the fief?!"
All the vassal kings and princes finally panicked, and when they saw someone rising up to argue, they agreed one after another.
"That's right! There are also refugees and bandits in our fief. If there are no government soldiers, wouldn't we have soldiers on their necks, and we're going to waste our lives?!"
"Cao Yan, why are you at ease! As the Minister of the Ministry of War, you can't even gather the strength of the army. Are you in the Ministry of War for nothing!"
"Cao Shangshu's words are wrong. If many government soldiers are gathered together, there may be chaos."
"Yes, yes, please think twice, Your Majesty!"
The emperor looked down quietly, without saying a word.
Cao Yan said calmly: "Nowadays, the rebels are raging, the world is in turmoil, and the people are in dire straits. As subjects, do the kings want to ignore the danger of the country? Dare I ask what the kings are thinking!"
Kings: "..."
So far, no one is a fool.
Why celebrating the imperial concubine's birthday? This is a fucking scam!The emperor just took advantage of the power of the rebel army to win over the military power in the hands of the vassal king!
A vassal who has been deprived of military power is no different from a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out, no matter how fierce it is, it loses its threat.
The emperor is so calculating!
There was silence in the Fuyan Palace, and the crowd did not dare to express their anger, and the feudal king was too blocked by Cao Yan to refute.
What can they say?Do you say that you just want to sit idly by and don't want to hand over the soldiers?
Lou Wei's jaw was about to drop.
He couldn't help looking at Lou Yu, trying to find resonance in him, but he saw Lou Yu hanging his head and playing with the bamboo fan, calmly, turning a deaf ear to him.
Did A Yu not understand?
Your Majesty is going to cut down the feudal clan!
After a long time, the emperor suddenly said softly: "Let's not mention this matter for now. The kings and princes have not been to the capital for a long time, and I miss them very much. Why don't the kings and princes stay in the capital for a little longer and accompany me?"
Is this to put them under house arrest? !
The vassal king and the princes were shocked, the emperor came for real this time.
A vassal king got up and said: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to talk about the past with you, but that my fief is close to Huzhou and has been affected a lot. I must return to the fief in time to guard the city."
"Don't worry," the emperor said with a smile, "the city has its own garrison commander. The world is dangerous now. You might as well settle down in the capital and return to the fief after the rebellion is suppressed."
Why not late!At that time, it is estimated that his soldiers will be recruited by the garrison!
He has become a polished commander!
Another vassal king also said: "Your Majesty, when I left the fief, Zhuojing was seriously ill, and I was worried. Please allow me to return home as soon as possible."
"Oh?" The emperor was surprised, "There is no one in the fief who can treat you? I can send an imperial doctor there to treat the princess."
The face of the vassal king was pale: "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, the clumsy thorn is not a serious problem, but I am worried about it, and my heart is chilled."
Another vassal was unable to sit down.
No one dared to speak anymore, the emperor smiled and said: "The capital is prosperous, and the kings and princes will surely have a good time."
All the kings and princes bowed their heads in silence.
The emperor was condescending, seeing everyone's expressions in his eyes.
Almost everyone was frowning, but Lou Yu was the only one staring at the meal in front of him with a pure expression.
He couldn't help calling names: "A Yu, would you like to stay in the capital for a longer time?"
Lou Yu: "..."
This is called "A Yu", the emperor really doesn't pay attention.
He stood up and saluted, his eyebrows were handsome and graceful, and he didn't look gloomy at all: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I have long been yearning for the capital. Four years ago, because I was young, I didn't know how to appreciate the bustling scenery of the capital, but now I do."
"Oh?" The emperor became interested, "What do you understand?"
Lou Yu said bluntly: "The capital is beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, and the people are also beautiful."
"Hahahaha," the emperor laughed heartily, "A Yu has indeed grown up."
He meant something: "If you like, you can stay in the capital for a few more days, and I will send some lovely people to accompany you."
Lou Yu was pleasantly surprised: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Ron!"
The rest of the feudal princes and princes squinted: I'm afraid this person is not a fool!
idiot!traitor!Mad!
When Lou Yu said this, the rest of the people couldn't refuse at all.
A birthday banquet begins with joy and ends in silence.
Although the emperor has not officially ordered the harvest of military power, but he left all the vassals and princes in the capital, which is a disguised threat.
What he was waiting for was that the kings took the initiative to hand over their military power.
He wanted to weaken the power of the vassal king, but he kept it hidden, unwilling to reveal his thoughts.
Using the concubine's birthday banquet to trick the kings and princes into Beijing, and taking away the military power of the vassals in the name of crusade against the rebels, this hypocritical behavior is really shocking and disgusting.
Who can know the people present?
Xie Xin, Du Qian, and Cao Yan were all contributing to the flames, while the rest of the officials remained silent.
Fan Yusheng couldn't help but look at his grandfather, only to see his grandfather sitting upright, with his brows drawn down and his eyes downcast.
It's not that the Fan family doesn't support the reduction of feudal clans, it's just that it's not suitable right now.
His Majesty connived at the rebels, causing the lives of the people to die and the people to live in dire straits, but he was not in a hurry to put down the rebellion, but only wanted to take this opportunity to persecute the vassal.
It is really……
He couldn't help sighing secretly.
After the banquet was over, Lou Yu was surrounded by a group of vassal princes and princes as soon as he stepped out of the hall.
Lou Wei also showed a little bit of loyalty, bit the bullet and stopped in front of Lou Yu, persuading him with kind words: "Everyone has something to say, and A Yu is right, the capital city is really fun."
Who doesn't know that Lou Yu said the right thing?But I just can't understand his stupid and spineless appearance.
Holding the hundred taels of gold bestowed by the imperial court, Lou Yu asked innocently, "Isn't the capital city fun?"
Everyone: "..."
well!Why did King Qing give birth to such an idiot!
No, King Qing himself is an idiot!
They left the palace with sighs.
Lou Weizhu stood next to Lou Yu, worried, "A Yu, what should we do now?"
"What should I do?" Lou Yu was puzzled, "The capital is so big, it's not enough for you to play with?"
His hands were sore, and he handed the gold box to Lou Wei: "Brother Wei, please do me a favor."
Lou Wei had no choice but to hold the box for him bitterly.
As soon as the two of them left the palace gate, Feng Erbi immediately came up to him, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, I see the faces of the lord and the princes are all gloomy, but is there any change in the palace?"
"It's okay," Lou Yu pointed to the gold, "This is the gold that His Majesty rewarded you, take it."
Feng Erbi:? ? ?
Why did His Majesty suddenly reward His Highness with gold?
Confused, he took the box back into the carriage in a daze.
A group of people returned to Hou Mansion.
Not long after returning to the Hou's mansion, a servant from the palace came to the door.
Behind the waiter were four beautiful and enchanting...boys? !
"Your Highness, this is the beauty that His Majesty specially ordered for you."
Lou Yu: "..."
Well said cute!Why are they all men!
Oh, by the way, he once performed a show in front of an angel, and the emperor knew that he had exerted "pretentious power" on Huo Yan.
But it can't be concluded that he only likes men!
Seeing that Lou Yu was dumbfounded and didn't react, the servant's expression froze: "Your Highness, don't forget to thank you."
Lou Yu came back to his senses: "Elder-in-law, don't blame me, it's just that the beauties in the capital are extraordinary and refined, I was dazzled by them. Thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift!"
The servant just laughed, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty is still thinking about the kaleidoscope, the prince will get it quickly, so that the servant can take it back and present it to His Majesty."
"Second pen, go get it." Lou Yu ordered.
After getting the kaleidoscope, the servant left Hou's mansion with a smile on his face. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell the beautiful boy to serve Lou Yu well.
The four beauties knelt down together and said in a charming voice, "I hope Your Highness will take pity on you."
Lou Yu: "..."
Who will take pity on him?
Feng Erbi also had a headache and asked, "Your Highness, how to arrange them?"
"Take it back to the courtyard first." Lou Yu turned and left without changing his expression.
This is a beauty bestowed by the emperor, can he refuse it?Moreover, these four beautiful boys could be seen as the emperor's blatant eyeliner.
He strode back to the courtyard, and because of the four beautiful boys behind him, everyone in the Hou Mansion looked sideways.
Huo Yan in the courtyard couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
Lou Yu gave him a look, Huo Yan understood, and bowed his head in a docile gesture.
After entering the room, Lou Yu slumped on the soft couch, looked at the four people in front of him, and asked with a smile, "What's their name?"
The boy in white: "Nu Hanshuang."
The youth in Tsing Yi: "Slave ink bamboo."
The young man in red clothes: "Slave Fusang."
The boy in blue: "Slave Iris."
Lou Yu smiled and commented: "The name fits well with the color of your clothes."
Four people: "I made His Highness laugh at you."
Lou Yu asked again, "What will happen?"
Hanshuang: "Nu Shan Danqing."
Mo Zhu: "This slave is good at playing flute."
Fusang: "Slaves are good at throwing pots."
Iris: "Slave is good at manipulation."
Press correction is massage, which is a practical and good skill.
He clicked the iris: "This son is not feeling well, you come and give me a massage, and the three of you step back first."
Yuanwei was overjoyed, walked to Lou Yu's side, and said softly, "Your Highness, please lie down."
He was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was born with delicate features, snowy skin, vermilion lips, and a small vermilion mole at the corner of his eye, which added a bit of charm.
Lou Yu turned around and lay down on the couch.
A pair of hands landed on his back shoulders, and the cuffs were probably covered with incense powder. When he pressed it, there was a gust of fragrance.
I have to say that the skill of this master Iris is really good, comparable to the massage masters in modern high-end clubs.
After sipping a cup of tea, Lou Yu felt so refreshed that he could hardly keep his eyelids open.
He murmured: "Your name is Yuanwei, right? I will correct this son in the future, and it will not lose your benefits."
"His Royal Highness Nu Xie."
Iris smiled lightly, her voice was mellow, very pleasant, with a hint of ecstasy.
Lou Yu felt that the emperor thought highly of him, he was only 14 years old!
"Huo Yan." He called out.
Huo Yan lowered his head and approached.
"Learn how to serve others with Iris."
The young man raised his eyes lazily, his eyes were moist, and his fair cheeks were stained with a blush, which was more touching than the exquisitely made-up iris.
Huo Yan was startled, how could he make such an association!
Is it blasphemy to compare Lou Yu with an iris? !
He secretly blamed himself, felt ashamed in his heart, and it just happened to show something on his face.
Lou Yu thought in his heart: Huo Yan has been with him for a long time, and his acting skills have really improved. This little expression of perfection is really flawless.
He sat up suddenly, looked at Huo Yan's expression, and sneered: "Why? Still think of yourself as the second son of Huo in the past? You are just a lowly slave now, how dare you feel ashamed!"
Iris stepped aside and stood quietly waiting.
Huo Yan lowered his head and lowered his eyes, the veins on his forehead popped out.
"You have such a boring temperament, if it weren't for this face, how could this son like you!"
Feng Erbi boldly said: "Your Highness, I think Iris looks better."
"Why?" Lou Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
Feng Erbi smiled and said: "It is said in the book that beauty is like jade, and it is more suitable for slaves to look at irises."
"What do you know?" Lou Yu stretched out his hand to pinch Huo Yan's jaw, "Wouldn't it be happier to conquer an imposing man than the weak Liu Fufeng?"
Feng Erbi was disgusted: "I still think that how can a rough person compare to a beauty made of jade?"
"The 'rough man' you speak of was once the head of the princes of the capital."
As soon as the words fell, Lou Quan's voice came from outside the door: "Brother, can you open the door?"
Lou Yu immediately let go of Huo Yan, went to bed and straightened his clothes.
Feng Erbi went to open the door.
Hearing the news that His Majesty rewarded the beautiful boy, Lou Quan was startled for a while before coming forward with his skirt lifted.
No matter how stupid your majesty is, he will not reward beauties indiscriminately. Could it be that my younger brother really admires masculinity?
When she stepped into the house, she saw the handsome and flexible Iris.
Lou Quan cut to the chase: "Brother, I heard that His Majesty gave you four beauties, why are they all men?"
"Sister, you've lived in the capital for a long time, don't you know that being a man is a very elegant thing?" Lou Yu asked back.
He read so many travel notes, not in vain.
The travel notes mentioned many times the attitude of the high society in Dasheng towards masculinity. Many places are proud of "raising beautiful men", and Nanfeng Pavilion is everywhere.
Lou Quan's eyes showed concern: "You are still young, you can't go too far."
"Sister, don't worry, I just let Iris massage and correct for me."
Lou Quan just breathed a sigh of relief, but he heard him ask: "Sister, Your Majesty allows me to spend more time in the capital. I wonder if there is a famous Nanfeng Pavilion in the capital? I want to see it."
Lou Quan: "..."
Her elder brother's face is as white as jade, and his eyebrows are as handsome as a picture. If he went to Nanfeng Hall with such a refined appearance, who might take advantage of it!
"No, you are not allowed to go."
Lou Yu didn't want to go at all, he just said it on purpose, anyway, he believed that sister would definitely object.
He lowered his head along the way: "Forget it, anyway, there are Iris and the others. The beauties bestowed by His Majesty must be no worse than those in Nanfeng Pavilion."
Lou Quan: "..."
She said earnestly, "Don't hurt yourself."
"I know." Lou Yu quickly changed the subject, "Sister, do you know if there are any merchants from the Western Regions in the capital? I want to inquire about the kaleidoscope."
The fact that the emperor exchanged one hundred gold for the kaleidoscope of Prince Qing's son has already been heard on the street.
Everyone is naturally curious about something that even His Majesty and the noble concubine admire.
There are already quite a few nobles from aristocratic families who have been secretly looking for merchants from the Western Regions to inquire about the Kaleidoscope.
Lou Quan also knew that this was a rare item, and felt sorry for his younger brother being robbed of the toy, so he said, "Don't worry, Sister has asked people to inquire about it."
"Thank you sister, I'm a little tired and want to rest."
Lou Yu got up early and was tense in the palace, so he was indeed a little tired.
After Lou Quan left, he swung the iris back, leaving behind Feng Erbi and Huo Yan, who fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up, "Kaleidoscope" was already popular in Beijing.
All are looking for a kaleidoscope.
Lou Wei is no exception.
When he had nothing to do, he tried to find a merchant from the Western Regions in the market.Ada, who is recovering from his injuries, accompanied him.
"Why is A Yu so lucky to get three at a time?" Lou Wei sighed enviously.
Ah Da didn't know that Lou Yu was Prince Qing's son before, but after hearing Lou Wei's explanation, he was stunned for a long time.
He is much more sensitive than Lou Wei, and will not be fooled by Lou Yu's perfunctory explanations.
He could see clearly all the way that Prince Qing's heir son and Zheng Yi were clearly different, and each had their own ghosts.
Of course, Prince Qing's son helped a lot along the way, and Ada was very grateful, and would not really seek to prove the relationship between Prince Qing and Zheng Yi.
Hearing Lou Wei's words, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Perhaps he is blessed by the Holy Spirit."
"That's right." Lou Wei muttered, "Stupid people have stupid luck."
Ah Da: "..."
Who is stupid?
He had already heard from Lou Wei about the banquet.Based on what he had seen and heard on the way, he concluded that Prince Qing's son must not be a stupid person.
Although he didn't know what Lou Yu was thinking, he had an intuition that Lou Yu must have something in mind.
"Your Highness, Master Yu has helped us a lot. If you are free, go talk to him more often."
Lou Wei nodded, "Okay."
He was about to go to Ning Enhou's mansion when he suddenly heard a voice above his head: "Your Majesty Wei, can we have a drink together?"
Lou Wei raised her head, it was still the same teahouse as last time, but last time a few spectators were gone, only two teenagers.
One in white and one in green.
He shook his head: "No, I have something else to do."
Fan Yusheng shook the folding fan lightly, "You don't want to find the kaleidoscope?"
"You don't dare to come up, do you?" The young man in green sneered while leaning on the railing.
Lou Wei said in a daze, "You take me to find the kaleidoscope first, and then I will drink tea with you."
The boy in green: "..."
This Prince Cang looked dumbfounded, how could he say such choking words?
As expected of playing well with Lou Yu!
Fan Yusheng laughed and said, "Your Majesty Wei doesn't care if you don't drink."
He never force others.
But this time he gave up, but Lou Wei hesitated.
"Do you really know where to buy a kaleidoscope?" Lou Wei looked directly at Fan Yusheng.
The young man's eyes are clear, black and white are distinct, and he can see to the end at a glance.
Fan Yusheng's hand shaking the fan was slightly stagnant, and he couldn't help laughing: "Forget it, I'll take you there."
The young man in green: "Brother Fan, how can you do this?"
Didn't you agree to drink tea before taking him there?
Fan Yusheng has already gone downstairs.
He did not lie to Lou Wei, relying on the power of Fan Mansion, it was easy to find merchants from the Western Regions and get news about Kaleidoscope.
I don't know if it's a coincidence or luck, but there is actually a peddler in the capital selling kaleidoscopes.
The favorite of the emperor and the imperial concubine suddenly became the trend in the capital.
The peddler is not stupid. The price of the kaleidoscope, which was originally sold cheaply, has soared all the way, which is extremely crazy.
But yes, the emperor even exchanged a hundred gold for a kaleidoscope, do other people dare to buy it cheaper than the emperor?
The rest of the wealthy families also got the news, and they secretly competed for bids. The price of the kaleidoscope has reached an extremely crazy situation.
Fan Yusheng and the others came to a Xiajiuliu inn.
This is where the merchants landed.
If it is not a native of the capital, few people will know the existence of this inn.
So Lou Wei searched for a long time but couldn't find it.
There are mixed fish and dragons here, and Fan Yusheng and the others are all dressed in brocade, with a luxurious temperament, which is extremely eye-catching.
However, the Fan Mansion is well-known, and everyone knew Fan Yusheng, so they didn't dare to confront her.
They went straight to the backyard of the inn without hindrance.
Before Lou Wei went in, he heard someone shouting, "190 taels! Is there any bid?"
Lou Wei: "..."
190 taels of gold, he really didn't have any.
He still owes the Du Mansion 200 taels of silver, and the congratulatory gift for the noble concubine was also bought by borrowing money from the Du Mansion.
Fan Yusheng saw his embarrassment at a glance, and couldn't help laughing: "If I give you a kaleidoscope, how will Prince Wei repay me?"
Lou Wei stared wide-eyed, wouldn't it be repayable if he sold him?
He shook his head hurriedly: "No need! No need!"
It's too expensive!
But Fan Yusheng stepped into the courtyard and said loudly: "200 taels."
The courtyard is quiet.
The hawker couldn't help looking at Fan Yusheng, and reminded: "Young master, we are talking about gold."
"nature."
The merchant asked the price again, but no one in the court responded.
Who doesn't recognize Mr. Fan's family?Who dares to ignore him?
Soon, Fan Yusheng and the merchant settled the money and the goods.
He played with the kaleidoscope and asked Lou Wei: "I wonder if Prince Wei has time to drink tea now?"
Lou Wei's eyes were fixed on it: "If you give me a look, I'll drink tea with you."
Several people returned to the teahouse.
The young man in green couldn't wait any longer, and urged: "Brother Fan, take a quick look, and give it to me after you finish!"
Lou Wei also watched eagerly.
Fan Yusheng unscrewed the cover and took a closer look. Even though he has extensive knowledge and extensive knowledge, he was so amazed that he lost his voice.
However, there is such an astonishing feast of flowers in a small tube.
Wonderful.
Mr. Fan, who had always been calm, lost all color, which shows how exquisite the kaleidoscope is.
The young man in green can't wait to grab it immediately.
Fortunately, Fan Yusheng quickly regained consciousness, handed the kaleidoscope to the young man in green, and sincerely praised: "I don't know who is a skilled craftsman who can make such a wonderful thing. I really want to see it."
The green-clothed boy could no longer hear what he said.
He kept asking in his heart: How is it possible?How is this possible?Obviously this tube is no longer than the length of your hand, how can you fit so many flowers in it!
Lou Wei was beyond curious.
Fan Yusheng raised his fan and said, "If you answer my few questions truthfully, I will give this to you, how about it?"
"Brother Fan!" The young man in green was in a hurry, and took the time to reply, "You might as well sell him to me!"
Fan Yusheng: "You don't know how to answer my questions."
The young man in green glared at Lou Wei, who blinked innocently.
"What are you going to ask me?"
Fan Yusheng asked with a smile: "That day in the tea house, I heard you called Yu Shizi 'Mr. Yu', and Yu Shizi explained the reason to you. Why is that? Could it be that you have met on the road?"
"Why are you asking me that?"
Lou Wei is not really stupid, their vassal princes and princes are in a bad situation right now, so he can't talk nonsense.
He drank a cup of tea and asked expectantly, "I drank the tea too, can you show me?"
Fan Yusheng: "..."
It's not easy to deal with people with solid eyes.
Forget it, he doesn't bully people anymore.
So he asked the young man in green to pass the kaleidoscope to Lou Wei.
The young man in green was reluctant to part with him, and stared at Lou Wei several times.
Lou Wei rolled his eyes too much at Du's house, but he didn't care too much, and rolled his eyes straight up.
God!It is really colorful!It's amazing!
How on earth is this made!
When Lou Wei turned around, the color of the flowers inside suddenly changed, it was amazing!
He admired it for a long time and completely forgot about Fan Yusheng and others.
The young man in green was impatient: "Have you seen enough! Come back after seeing enough!"
Lou Wei had no choice but to return it with a dejected face.
"How?" Fan Yusheng smiled elegantly, "If you are willing to answer me, you can play with this thing for as long as you like."
Lou Wei stared at him blankly, then suddenly said: "Is this thing worth two hundred gold?"
Fan Yusheng smiled: "If you don't want to take advantage, you can answer a few more questions."
"That's not what it means," Lou Wei shook his head, "It's just that I've heard that the Fan family is famous, but I didn't expect you to be able to spend so much money all at once."
Fan Yusheng: "..."
The young man in green was angry: "Lou Wei, what do you mean?!"
"I don't mean anything else," Lou Wei waved his hands again and again, apologetically, "I'm just curious."
Fan Yusheng suppressed his smile slightly, but still said: "If you solve my doubts, I can also solve your doubts."
Lou Wei: "Actually, I'm not too interested."
He stood up and cupped his hands: "Thank you Mr. Fan for your generous loan, I'll go back first."
Fan Yusheng didn't stop him anymore.
The young man in green said angrily: "It's a shame, we borrowed him to watch the kaleidoscope, but he didn't answer a single question!"
"It's not bad."
Fan Yusheng put away his folding fan.
If you have a ghost in your heart, you will not dare to speak out.
In connection with the events before and after the kaleidoscope, Fan Yusheng had reason to suspect that this object had something to do with the son of King Qing.
With the evidence of Lou Wei's evasion and refusal to answer, he is even more certain that the seemingly domineering and crazy Prince Qing's son is destined to be extraordinary.
The aristocrats of the aristocratic families are vying to buy the same kaleidoscope from His Majesty, and Ning Enhou's Mansion is no exception.
Xie Mao was recuperating in bed, Madam Hou felt sorry for him, so she sent someone to buy a kaleidoscope at a high price to relieve his boredom.
"My lord, is this kaleidoscope really so magical?"
The head of the couch stuck his eyes on the kaleidoscope, and asked cautiously.
He heard rumors outside that he was crazy, and seeing that his son couldn't put it down, he couldn't help but feel itchy.
Is there anything good that their young master hasn't seen?It must be extremely miraculous to make Young Master so fascinated. If he is lucky enough to take a look, he will have no regrets in this life!
Xie Mao glanced at him when he heard the words, and said contemptuously: "That's it, nothing to see."
"How could it be, Madam bought it for 250 gold!" Chang Sui exclaimed.
Xie Mao's face darkened: "Didn't you tell me before that Fan Yusheng only spent two hundred gold?"
"It's rising again now," Chang Sui sighed, "They are all unscrupulous dealers, selling a few kaleidoscopes can earn gold that others will never see in their entire lives."
Xie Mao sneered: "In the end, Lou Yu didn't provoke it. If he hadn't offered the kaleidoscope, those merchants wouldn't have made much money."
"My lord, calm down. I heard that the princess also sent someone to buy a kaleidoscope to make the prince happy. The merchant has been found, but he has no money!"
Xie Mao said angrily: "Last time Lou Yu stole so much money from the family in Yinlou, it made my mother very angry!"
He slowly rubbed the kaleidoscope, his eyes rolled: "Go, you call him."
Lou Yu was a little confused when he received the "summon".
Xie Mao healed up so quickly, did the scar forget the pain?Still want to rush to find abuse?
He was reclining on the couch, and Iris knelt down to beat his legs, with a flirtatious look.
"Why is Erlang looking for this son?" He asked lazily.
The long follower: "Second Young Master said that he has something good to share with His Highness."
Good stuff?
Lou Yu immediately thought of the kaleidoscope, after all, the kaleidoscope is the hottest thing in the capital now.
He became interested in an instant, stood up and said: "Okay, I will go after packing up my clothes. You go back and report to your life first."
He also told Yuanwei: "You call the three of them and go to see Erlang with me."
Iris retreated to call for someone.
There are only three Lou Yu left in the house.
Feng Erbi chuckled and said, "I'm afraid it's Mr. Xie Er who wants to show off with His Highness."
But who would know that the merchant who sold the kaleidoscope was someone arranged by His Highness?
Lou Yu rubbed his chin, he didn't expect the effect to be so good.
Originally, he just wanted to find the emperor and the noble concubine to speak for him, to advertise the kaleidoscope, but unexpectedly, the emperor gave him a hundred gold directly.
The emperor spent a hundred gold in exchange for the kaleidoscope, who would dare to spend less than the emperor?
Ever since, the kaleidoscope sold for a sky-high price.
In the past few days, he has earned a full three thousand gold by selling kaleidoscopes!
It is gold, not silver.
How much salt would he have to sell to earn so much?It is even more lucrative than selling salt!
It can be seen how extravagant these big families in the capital are!
With these funds, the dark forces in the capital will be better developed.
Huo Yan said, "Maybe it won't be that simple."
"Yes."
Lou Yu smiled, "He probably doesn't just want to show off to me."
Feng Erbi: "Ah? Then what should I do?"
"What are you afraid of? Soldiers come to block you, water comes to cover you." Lou Yu tidied up his clothes and stepped out of the house, "Let's go and meet him."
He led Huo Yan and Feng Erbi, with four beautiful boys behind him, rushed to Xie Mao's yard in a hurry.
Xie Maochang took a look, why bring so many people?Do you mess up?
Lou Yu stepped into Xie Mao's room again.
The house faces south, is sunny, open and bright, and has a quiet and elegant environment. It is indeed a good place for recuperation.
Ning Enhou's Mansion is really rich.
Lou Yu smiled and sat down beside the table, and asked Xie Mao: "Why is Erlang looking for me? But bored? It just so happens that His Majesty sent me a few beauties, each with their own unique skills, how about letting them relieve your boredom?"
"Lou Yu, what's the use of saying this?"
Xie Mao shook the kaleidoscope in his hand, and said proudly: "I'm afraid you don't know, the kaleidoscope in the capital is sold for three hundred gold. I heard that your sister asked someone to buy it, but she couldn't even get 100 taels of silver."
Lou Yu had a smile on his face, but the smile in his eyes was restrained: "My sister is also your sister-in-law."
"Do you think you are losing money?" Xie Mao ignored his reminder, and taunted himself, "If you didn't present it to your empress, maybe you could earn six hundred gold with two kaleidoscopes."
Feng Erbi on the side couldn't listen anymore.
Is Xie Erlang sick?
Lou Yu's expression was tense, but he pretended to be free and easy and said: "It was originally dedicated to His Majesty and Your Majesty, so how can you suffer? Your Majesty is kind and generous. Didn't you also give this son a hundred gold and four beauties?"
"Lou Yu, if you want to play, I can lend it to you." Xie Mao suddenly kindly extended the kaleidoscope to him.
Lou Yu: "..."
Was this child raised too innocently?Does cheating make such a low-level person?
He asked bluntly, "Is your kaleidoscope broken?"
Xie Mao: "..."
He did hit the kaleidoscope when he was angry, but now he can't see the flowers.
Lou Yu frowned: "Do you still want to blame me? Then I owe you three hundred gold?"
He knew that Mrs. Hou bought it for 250 gold, and Xie Mao said it was [-] gold, but he deliberately blackmailed him.
However, is this conspiracy too childish?Lou Yu didn't even notice.
Of course, if he were Lou Wei, he might really be fooled.
Xie Mao was told his thoughts, his face flushed suddenly, he was ashamed and angry, and shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about! How could I blackmail you! What qualifications do you have to let the young master blackmail you!"
"Xie Mao!"
Lou Yu was really "overwhelmed with anger", and suddenly jumped up, rushed in front of him, snatched the kaleidoscope angrily, and threw it heavily on the ground!
"Crackling-"
After a crisp sound, the kaleidoscope fell apart.
Lou Yu snorted coldly: "Okay, now you can go to your mother and cry, saying that I broke your kaleidoscope."
After some silence, Xie Mao suddenly let out a roar:
"Lou Yu! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"
He never thought of breaking the kaleidoscope!
He still wants to go to the merchant to repair it!
But now it's all fucking broken!
Xie Mao couldn't believe it, how could Lou Yu be so arrogant!Why on earth is he!
A cowardly son who is about to be demolished!Why on earth is he!
In a fit of anger, Xie Mao jumped off the bed with one leg, picked up the jade pillow and threw it on Lou Yu's head!
Feng Erbi screamed, and was about to step forward to stop him, but one person was faster than him.
There was another "pa", the jade pillow collided with Huo Yan's arm, and it shattered to the ground.
Lou Yu learned some boxing skills in his spare time, so he could have avoided it, but he hesitated when it came time.
Seeing the broken jade pillow, he secretly sighed.
Feng Erbi didn't see it, but Huo Yan's eyes were like lightning.
He clearly saw Lou Yu turning on his toes, making a gesture to dodge, but in the end he gave up.
Is he planning to be bloodied by Xie Mao!
Once this guess emerged, for some reason, Huo Yan suddenly became angry.
His whole face was darkened, his handsome eyes were dark, and his anger was like a sharp edge.
Lou Yu turned his head and was about to thank him, when he met his eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt a little guilty.
The words of thanks were not spoken.
He twisted back and kicked Xie Mao's abdomen. Xie Mao was unsteady on one leg, and fell directly to the ground, just falling on the broken glass, bleeding from his palm.
The servant hurried forward to rescue him.
Lou Yu's face was gloomy: "Who dares to touch my son! I'll charge him with murdering the royal family!"
The servants froze for a moment.
The second son had to be rescued, but Prince Qing couldn't be messed with, so what should we do!
Immediately, a servant rushed to the main courtyard to inform the mistress.
Lou Yu stepped on Xie Mao firmly, and said condescendingly: "Xie Mao, your Xie family has become so rampant that you even dare to murder the royal family?"
"You are a fart! You are a lunatic! A lunatic!" Xie Mao yelled in pain.
Lou Yu smiled: "I'm a fart? I'm the nephew of the Holy Majesty today. If you say I'm a fart, what about the Majesty? What is the Majesty to you?"
Xie Mao shut up instantly.
"Xie Mao, you humiliated me in the street, planned to frame me, and then hit me with a jade pillow, do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
Lou Yu's eyes were cold and he was exerting force on his feet.
"Lou Yu! How dare you hurt me! Are you afraid that your sister will have a hard time in the future?!"
Frightened, Xie Mao threatened Lou Yu with Lou Quan.
As soon as you enter the Hou Mansion, it is as deep as the sea.
Lou Quan is a married woman, the daughter-in-law of the Xie family has to be restrained by the Xie family, even if the Xie family beats and scolds, Lou Quan can only bear it.
Xie Mao's words directly touched Lou Yu Nilin.
He retracted his feet, stared at him coldly for a while, and suddenly turned around and walked outside without saying a word.
As soon as he arrived outside the courtyard, he ran into Mrs. Hou and Lou Quan who came in a hurry.
He rushed to Lou Quan at once, crying bitterly: "Sister! How much you have suffered in the Hou Mansion! Sister! Just now Xie Mao threatened me with your life, saying that if I dare to fight back, Madam Xie will severely punish you!" Grind you!"
Madam Hou was about to speak: "..."
"Sister! I'm so uncomfortable!"
Lou Yu supported Lou Quan's arm, crying unbearably.
It's not pretending, but I really feel sorry for Lou Quan.
The fact that Xie Mao can say that shows how the Xie family treats sister when he is not around!
Seeing him cry for the first time, Feng Erbi was so panicked and overwhelmed that his heart ached so much that he started crying too.
Lou Yu has always been the backbone of everyone in Gyeongju.
He is gentle and powerful, pouring fire into the river, never showing the slightest weakness, even when facing blood for the first time, he can still pretend to be calm in front of others.
Right now, he was crying bitterly because of Xie Mao's threat.
Huo Yan frowned, even though he knew that he had an element of acting in it, he couldn't help feeling agitated.
For the vassal king and the prince, the capital is like a dangerous place.
When Lou Yu enters the capital, it is like crossing a river with a mud boat. If one is not careful, there will be changes in the prongs.
Even so, Lou Yu never showed the slightest worry.
The longer he gets along with each other, the more he admires Lou Yu.
Originally, he thought that tears would not exist on this person.
Huo Yan stared at Lou Yu.
The young son's eyes were red, tears rolled down, his pitiful appearance was really worrying
