Enter the male channel to engage in infrastructure

The moment Guo Lian received the order, Guo Lian almost cried with joy.

His Majesty is going to send someone to collect the military power, does it mean that he will no longer be under the shackles of Lou Yu? !

Prince Qing's mansion without soldiers is like a tiger without teeth, no matter how fierce it is, it won't help.

What's more, when the generals of the court arrived in Gyeongju, wouldn't they report to the court when they saw the current situation in Gyeongju?

great great!

He quickly summoned all the officials in the government office, cleared his throat and said: "There is an order from the capital that General Han Yun will arrive at Qingzhou Prefecture in a few days, and you will come out of the city with me to meet him."

All the officials:? ? ?

They looked at Guo Lian blankly, their eyes full of bewilderment.

Guo Lian lowered his face, "Why, you are not happy that a general from the imperial court has come to take over the military power in Qingzhou?"

He thought that these people, who had been suppressed for a long time, were as dissatisfied with Lou Yu as he was, and they would be extremely happy to hear the news, but he didn't expect that the scene in front of him made his heart shudder.

He stared at everyone, and asked angrily, "You have been kneeling in front of Lou Yu for a long time, and you can't stand up anymore?"

"Master Guo, let me remind you that your son is still in the hands of the prince." An official couldn't help but said.

The rest of the officials also nodded in agreement.

The Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of Engineering are the most indifferent. Due to their special occupations, the two of them have personally participated in agricultural planning and new city construction, and they are looking forward to the future development of Gyeongju City.

I was originally full of enthusiasm, but when I heard this "bad news", I couldn't help feeling cold all over my body.

If His Royal Highness no longer has real power, how can these plans be implemented?

Guo Lian hates the son, and the court generals are afraid of the son, and they will definitely not agree with all the plans of the son.

The thought of Gyeongju returning to its past made the two feel sad.

Guo Lian said coldly: "Have you forgotten that the imperial court sent Future Qing precisely because King Qing's military power has been confiscated, so how can Lou Yu resist?"

Besides, the court came, and as the magistrate, it was impossible not to greet him, right?

His behavior is reasonable and no one can comment on it.

As long as he wins over Han Yun, is he afraid that he won't be able to find a living person?

Guo Lian knocked on the crowd a few more words before announcing the end of the meeting with a gloomy face.

Si Nong and Si Gong walked side by side, both sighing.

To be honest, although they used to resent Lou Yu's tough style, but after witnessing the changes in Gyeongju, their perception of Lou Yu has gradually changed.

"Brother Chen, do you still remember our ambitions before we became officials?" the official engineer sighed softly.

Shen Hong smiled: "How can you not remember? Brother Lu, if you have anything to teach, you might as well tell me."

"I can't talk about teaching. I just think that the world is stable, the world is peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. That's what I want to see most."

Lu You walked out of the government office, and walked slowly to the market with Shen Hong.

Today's Gyeongju City is no longer the Gyeongju City they remembered.

Since the son took over the power, no matter men or women in the city, they can go out of the city to find work.

Because the son never defaults on wages, the common people can make a lot of money after working for a few months.

The surplus money in the hands of the people has also led to the prosperity of the shops and vendors.

There are also more and more merchants coming from other places.

Gyeongju is like a thriving and lively scene.

Isn't what they want to see just such a grand plan?

But right now, the imperial court has sent someone to take over Qingzhou, and the power of the eldest son has fallen to the side. Now that he has not returned to Qingzhou, he does not know what will happen to Qingzhou in the future.

How can we not sigh that ambition is unpaid?

A few days later, Han Yun drove to Qingzhou.

Guo Lian led his officials to welcome him.

Just as the sun was setting, Han Yun was riding on the horse against the light, everyone couldn't see his face clearly, they only vaguely felt that this man was a heroic man, worthy of being a general from the capital.

Guo Lian clasped his hands and said: "General Han has worked hard all the way, and I have prepared food and wine to clean up the dust for the general."

"Your Majesty Lao Guo."

The two exchanged a few words of greeting, Han Yun got off the horse, and everyone saw his appearance clearly.

He was born with an ordinary body and a strong body, no different from ordinary generals.

Guo Lian laughed and said, "I wonder if the general has a seal?"

Han Yun quickly took out the letter of appointment and other things to prove his identity. Guo Lian just glanced at it roughly, and returned it to Han Yun immediately without seeing anything wrong.

But he was very curious, how could such a dignified general have no personal guards around him?

Perhaps this General Han likes to be alone.

Guo Lian's thoughts flashed, and he concentrated on building a good relationship with Han Yun.

Han Yun was from the capital, and he thought he was superior to others, with a bit of contempt in his eyes. Basically, it was Guo Lian who was speaking, and he only responded occasionally.

Over time, Guo Lian couldn't keep his face off.

He is the magistrate of a state, and he is not a cat or a dog. What does Han Yun mean?

If it wasn't for cooperating with him, Guo Lian wouldn't be mad at him.

He couldn't help comparing Han Yun with Lou Yu, and suddenly felt that although Lou Yu was strong, he would never look down on others.

"I don't know when General Han will meet with the military commander of Prince Qing's Mansion?" Guo Lian asked.

Han Yun asked: "Master Guo, what advice do you have?"

"General Han doesn't know something," Guo Lian said with a gloomy expression, "The soldiers of Prince Qing's mansion are now..."

"My lord! Someone from outside the mansion brought something over!" Suddenly a yamen servant hurried over from outside the door.

Guo Lian's heart skipped a beat, and he said in a trembling voice, "Bring it up."

This is a wooden box.

Guo Lian opened it carefully, and his breath stopped for a moment.

Inside the wooden box were a hairpin and a lock of hair.

The hairpin belongs to Guo Tang, so the hair must also belong to Guo Tang!

What does it mean?Are Lou Yu's men threatening him?

At this time, is it interesting to threaten him?

Could it be that they could still disobey the holy will and prevent Han Yun from confiscating military power?

Holding the wine glass, Han Yun asked, "Why didn't Mr. Guo say anything? How about the soldiers from Prince Qing's Mansion?"

Guo Lian closed the wooden box, and laughed: "I just think that the Qing Palace soldiers have been exhausted for many years, and they really don't have much combat effectiveness. In the future, you need to worry about it, General Han."

"It's okay." Han Yun put down his wine glass and glanced around, "Why don't you see the commander of the army?"

Lu You answered, "I guess he slept a lot in the camp!"

"General Han has traveled all the way, and the sky is getting dark now, why not rest for a night first, and then visit Prince Qing's Mansion tomorrow?" Shen Hong suggested.

The talisman in charge of the soldiers is in the hands of King Qing. If he wants to recruit the soldiers, Han Yun must get the talisman.

It's just that the sky is already dark, so we can only wait for tomorrow.

Han Yun nodded in response.

That night, he was invited to stay in Guofu.

In the middle of the night, when he heard a noise outside the door, Han Yun immediately got up and went out to the porch.

The moon was covered by clouds and mist, and only a ball of paper was thrown on the ground.

He bent down to pick it up, went back to the house, lit a candle and opened it.

It said: The barracks of King Qing's Mansion are different, the general is cautious.

Han Yun snorted lightly, put the note on the candle and burned it.

The next day, Guo Lian personally accompanied Han Yun to Prince Qing's Mansion.

King Qing had "recovered from illness" and received them in the main hall.

With a haggard appearance and a slightly bitter complexion, he sighed softly, "I know the purpose of General Han's visit."

Han Yun was expressionless: "The sage ordered the officials to confiscate the talisman cards, and I hope the prince will cooperate."

King Qing smiled wryly: "The son is still in the capital, how could this king refuse?"

As he spoke, he took out an iron talisman from his sleeve and handed it to Han Yun.

——It was already ready!

Guo Lian was a little surprised, King Qing handed over the military power so easily?

Everything seems to come too easy.

He carefully scrutinized King Qing's expression, and saw that the bitter worry in his eyes did not seem to be fake, so he was a little relieved.

Thinking about it, King Qing is just an idiot, Lou Yu is the only one who is powerful.

Now that Lou Yu is trapped in the capital, King Qing's mansion has no backbone, and King Qing is worried about his son's life, so he has to take out a talisman, which is completely reasonable.

Guo Lian suppressed any misgivings and said with a smile, "Congratulations, General Han."

Han Yun solemnly took the talisman, and said to King Qing: "Please forgive me for disturbing the prince. I will leave."

Get the talisman, and you can order the soldiers.

Han Yun didn't delay at all, and went straight to the government barracks.

"General Han, I wonder if you slept well last night?" Guo Lian followed him around, asking meaningfully.

Han Yun glanced at him lightly, with an arrogant expression on his face: "It's okay."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Guo Lian frowned and pondered, did Han Yun see the reminder on the note?

The two went to the government barracks, and there was not even a guard at the door.

Guo Lian hehe, he pretended quite like it.

So what if you pretend to look like it?Aren't you about to be incorporated?

It's just that he was warned yesterday that he can't reveal too much now, and I hope Han Yun will not be deceived by false appearances.

Han Yun suddenly said: "Before I was ordered to leave Beijing, I was told by the Shangguan that Qingzhou Mansion had previously reported to the imperial court, saying that it was attacked by many bandits and wanted the imperial court to send more troops to protect the city, right?"

Guo Lian's eyes lit up: "That's right! The imperial court asked me to recruit soldiers by myself, and now the strength of Qingzhou government is much greater than before."

He said it tactfully, but as long as his brain is not stupid, he can find the hint in it.

Guo Lian observed Han Yun carefully, seeing his face getting darker, he couldn't help secretly happy.

When Lou Yu returns to Gyeongju, there will be no more soldiers in his hands, let's see how arrogant he is!

The two stepped into the government barracks.

The camp was desolate and silent, and a few pawns appeared from time to time, secretly hiding not far away to probe their brains.

Han Yun summoned the pawns and said, "Tell your commanders to come and see me."

Pawn: "Who are you? What do you want our commander to do?"

Han Yun: "This general is ordered by the Holy Majesty to come to reorganize the soldiers of Prince Qing's Mansion and go to Yizhou to suppress the bandits!"

The emperor did say that if there are bandits nearby, he can use the name of suppressing the bandits to take the soldiers out of the city.

At the beginning of the recruitment, the government soldiers will definitely not be obedient, but what if they participate in the battle together and wipe out the bandits?

With the friendship of the same robe, I am not afraid that the government soldiers will not return.

As an old fox in the officialdom, Guo Lian could clearly understand the Holy Majesty's intentions.

He thought it was a great move!

These government soldiers are loyal to Lou Yu right now, but once they are taken out of the city to suppress the bandits, how can they listen to Lou Yu's order and fight against the court?

Lou Yu is really coming to an end!

The joy in Guo Lian's eyes could hardly be suppressed.

The pawn was shocked when he heard the words, and ran to find the commander, even though he lost his shoe.

"General Han really wants to lead the government soldiers... Oh no, he wants to lead the troops to Yizhou to suppress the bandits?"

Han Yun's face was cold: "Master Guo, there are some things that don't need to be said too clearly. There are bandits in Yizhou. As a soldier of the imperial court, shouldn't we go and exterminate them?"

"Hahahaha, yes, indeed!"

Guo Lian cupped his hands, "I hope the general wins!"

I also hope that Lou Yu will never be arrogant again after returning to the celebration!

Han Yun ignored him.

After a while, Li Shu came over with a dejected look on his face. When he saw Han Yun, he didn't salute, but raised his eyelids and asked, "What do you want from me?"

Han Yun stopped talking nonsense and showed the talisman directly.

Li Shu said "Oh", "The government soldiers are all in the camp, you call them yourself, I'll go back to sleep first."

"You are also a member of the Fubing, you must obey my orders." Han Yun said coldly.

Li Shu scratched his head, with a gloomy expression on his face: "Okay."

Not long after, the government soldiers walked over sparsely, without even a serious formation.

3000 people filled the open space in the camp.

Han Yun asked, "Are all the soldiers here?"

Li Shu yawned and nodded: "It's all here, if you don't believe me, count them yourself."

As soon as the words fell, Han Yun suddenly launched an attack, and the wind of his fist hit Li Shu's face.

Li Shu blocked subconsciously, his moves were concise and powerful, and he was completely different from the downcast commander just now!

He was shocked and fooled!

Sure enough, after Han Yun tried out his martial arts, he stopped immediately and said with a sneer:

"Don't act in front of this general. You really don't know that King Qing has a different heart? How many soldiers have I brought out? Otherwise, this general will immediately report to the emperor, and then you will be convicted of treason. Can you afford it! "

Seeing this, Guo Lian was overjoyed.

The Holy Majesty has such a plan, no wonder this time there will be such a thunderbolt!

Although this General Han has an aloof personality, he does things really neatly!

Very good!It's so good!

If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Guo Lian would have liked to applaud.

As long as Han Yun takes all Lou Yu's soldiers out, when Lou Yu returns to celebrate, how can he compete against him again? !

Li Shu was exposed and threatened by Han Yun with the crime of treason. After sighing dejectedly, he could only summon all the soldiers in despair.

There are tens of thousands of people!

Han Yun's face remained unchanged, as if he had expected it.

Seeing this, Guo Lian couldn't help being even more excited.

Lou Yu without the Fubing is just a paper tiger with his teeth pulled out, and he is no longer qualified to wrestle with him!

He was so excited that he didn't pay attention to Li Shu and Han Yun's brief eye contact.

The government soldiers have been incorporated, and there are still a thousand soldiers stationed on the tower.

The current commander of the garrison is from Prince Qing's Mansion, and He Dazhou is the deputy commander.

Guo Lian pondered, He Dazhou was originally a member of the imperial court, and Lou Yu had no choice but to subdue him.

I heard that he had a lot of backbone at the time, but he didn't want to follow Lou Yu, and later he was forced to do nothing, so he reluctantly obeyed Lou Yu's order.

Guo Lian felt that He Dazhou, like himself, was threatened by Lou Yu and had to do things for Lou Yu.

If he persuades He Dazhou to defect, Qingzhou Mansion will return to his hands again.

Before Lou Yu came back, he could order He Dazhou to use the garrison to control Prince Qing's Mansion.

So what if you can't find Guo Tang's hiding place?As long as King Qing and Princess Qing are in hand, Lou Yu is not afraid that he will not follow suit.

The more Guo Lian thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible.

So he asked his confidant to see He Dazhou.

He Dazhou was sitting in the duty room, listening to his confidants report on Han Yun's withdrawal.

He wiped the blade carefully, bowed his head in silence.

The subordinate said: "Commander, now that King Qing has been withdrawn from the army, and the prince is far away in the capital, the Qingzhou government may really change."

He Dazhou put the knife back into its sheath, but remained silent.

The subordinate was anxious, "Commander, express your opinion, our brothers are all panicked."

He Dazhou: "What are you panicking about?"

"I'm afraid we will be under the control of the court again in the future."

He Dazhou put on a straight face: "Why, you don't want to be controlled by the court?"

The subordinates also know that there are some things that cannot be said clearly.

He lamented: "Commander, everyone can see what life we ​​lived in the past and what life we ​​are living now, and you are clear in your heart. What is the prefect of Guo and what is the character of His Royal Highness? The common people can see clearly that no one is blind."

Since the construction of the new city, Shizi has recruited a large number of craftsmen and female workers from the city.

If you have work to do, you can get money, and if you have money, this day is booming visibly.

His mother-in-law is now cooking for people on the construction site, earning twenty coins a day!

Before putting it aside, he didn't even dare to think about it.

Twenty Wen a day, six hundred Wen a month, and more than seven pennies a year!

Because of this, his mother-in-law's voice is much louder than before.

He Dazhou said in a deep voice: "The feudal lord has been withdrawn from the army, you know what that means."

The subordinates were still about to speak, when suddenly someone came looking for He Dazhou.

"Vice Commander He, the prefect has an invitation."

He Dazhou and his confidant looked at each other, the prefect Guo was really impatient.

His face was expressionless: "He still has to guard the gate, and it is inconvenient to leave his job for the time being."

The messenger said: "Commander He is now in the second place, is he really willing?"

He Dazhou's expression changed slightly, and he took a step forward: "Let's go."

He hung behind the messenger, frowning and thinking about the current situation in Gyeongju.

The prince was trapped in the capital, and the emperor sent Han Yun to take back the military power. The Prince Qing's mansion was on an isolated island, and Guo Lian was gearing up for it, eyeing it covetously.

He could think with his toes why Guo Lian was looking for him.

It was nothing more than seducing him with money or a high position, asking him to lead troops to surround Prince Qing's mansion, and wait for the son to return to the city, threatening him with Prince Qing's mansion.

This is a conspiracy, but for Prince Qing's Mansion, it is unavoidable.

So far, the logic of this matter has no loopholes at all. It seems that King Qing and Shizi are indeed at the end of the day.

but--

He Dazhou still has doubts.

Based on his observation and understanding, it is impossible for this young and promising son, His Royal Highness, to allow himself to be reduced to where he is now.

He Dazhou has reason to suspect that Lou Yu must have left behind tricks.

But he couldn't figure out what Lou Yu's back move was.

Is it really lost?

He walked through the market, wherever he looked, there was a crowd of people in front of the shops and vendors, everyone had smiles on their faces and new clothes on their bodies.

The sound of yelling, hawking, bargaining, and quarreling is endless.

The bleakness of last year has completely disappeared.

He thought of the words his confidant had said, and an inexplicable sourness filled his heart.

Gyeongju has what it is today, and it was built by King Qing's son with countless painstaking efforts.

If Qingzhou really returns to Guo Lian, will these scenes never be seen again?

When he arrived at Guo's mansion, He Dazhou met Guo Lian in person.

Guo Lian went straight to the point: "Commander He, the government soldiers have been recruited now, what are your plans?"

"What does Master Guo mean?" He Dazhou asked calmly.

Guo Lian stared at him: "Back when Lou Yu harmed you and made you a prisoner, he could only obey his orders obediently. He even lost the position of commander and was as humble as a dog. Are you really not reconciled?"

"It's just a winner and a loser." He Dazhou lowered his eyes and clenched his fists quietly.

Seeing his demeanor and movements, Guo Lian felt relieved, it seemed that He Dazhou was indeed resentful.

"Well said, the winner is the king and the loser, you just look at it, who can become the king now, and who is the loser?"

He Dazhou remained silent.

"Commander He, don't forget that you and I both eat from the imperial court! You are the commander of the imperial court's garrison, and you were forced to do nothing before. Why are you still obsessed with it!"

Guo Lian sternly asked, "The situation is so good now, why are you still hesitating! Could it be that you were really fascinated by Lou Yu, and even forgot the word loyalty?!"

"I haven't forgotten!" He Dazhou's eyes were red with anger, "I never forgot!"

He is a soldier, and what he wants to protect has always been Dasheng Jiangshan!

He is the commander of the Gyeongju garrison, and what he wants to protect has always been the people of Gyeongju!

Guo Lian made up his mind, "Well, the court needs you now, are you ready?"

"Master Guo, please speak."

Guo Lian couldn't help showing a smug smile.

Lou Yu, when you come back, I will give you a big gift!

On the grain ship, Lou Yu kept sneezing, and drinking ginger soup didn't help.

Feng Erbi was running around in a hurry, and there was no medical clinic on the water, how could this be done?

Lou Quan urged Lou Yu to wrap up the quilt tightly, lit a charcoal basin, and said with a distressed face: "Why don't you stop the boat at the next pier and find a doctor to take a look at it."

"Yes, yes, Your Highness, you can't bear it."

Both Yang Ji'an and Sun Jingwen persuaded with worry.

Lou Yu huddled under the quilt, leaving only one face, looking rather pitiful.

He sniffed and asked in a low voice, "Where is the next pier?"

Wang Dayong checked the route before and replied, "It's the Hongyun Wharf in Qizhou."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Qizhou is okay, it's not in a mess yet.

Lou Yu was really uncomfortable all over, so he agreed to dock once.

He told Huo Yan: "Be careful in everything."

Huo Yan nodded: "You have a good rest, I will guard the boat."

Lou Quan and Feng Erbi stayed in the cabin to take care of Lou Yu, and the rest left the cabin to perform their duties.

Huo Yan took out the binoculars to observe the movement of the water surface in front, back, left, and right. Wang Dayong followed behind him and asked curiously, "What did the second son take?"

Huo Yan turned his head, and said in a deep voice: "Don't call me Second Young Master again in the future."

Wang Dayong was taken aback: "But you are our second son."

"I am now the commander of the Gyeongju Army, and I take orders from His Highness, and so do you."

Huo Yan's expression is solemn, his eyes are firm, as if he respects Lou Yu.

"But the military power in Qingzhou is about to be confiscated right now. Do you still have soldiers under your command? Why do you still follow Prince Qing?"

Wang Dayong was really puzzled.

In his opinion, Gyeongju is no longer worth investing in, not to mention, they didn't really follow Lou Yu as the main one.

The reason why he stayed in Gyeongju to transport food for Lou Yu was to follow Huo Yan.

But Huo Yan said: "I believe him."

Wang Dayong: "..."

The military power is gone, what else do you believe in?

Could it be that the second son has become a demon?

Huo Yan naturally knew what he was thinking, so he handed him the telescope: "Try it."

Wang Dayong didn't know why, imitating his appearance just now, and put the telescope in front of his eyes.

Whoa!Why did he suddenly see a small fishing boat!

He moved the binoculars away, rubbed his eyes, obviously he couldn't see anything clearly on the water in front of him!

Huo Yan said: "This thing can help eyesight, has Uncle Wang seen it?"

"No." Wang Dayong was stunned.

With this fetish, wouldn't it be possible to know the enemy's movements faster?

"Second Young Master, where did this thing come from!"

Huo Yan bent his lips and smiled slightly: "It was made by the prince."

Wang Dayong: "..."

But the second son, the most powerful is the son, why are you so happy?

He restrained his shocked expression, thought for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "Second Young Master, tell your subordinates, is Qingzhou's military power really taken away?"

Huo Yan smiled: "I've said it all, I believe him."

Wang Dayong couldn't help hey: "Okay, I listen to you, Commander Huo."

The next day, the grain ship arrived at Qizhou Hongyun Wharf.

Lou Yu was in a daze and was helped out of the boat by Feng Erbi.

Most people stayed on board, Huo Yan, Feng Erbi, Jiang Yong and several government soldiers accompanied them.

In this world right now, it's better to keep a low profile.

The name of Hongyun Wharf sounds bustling, but it is actually full of people coming and going, and it is very lively.

There are many laborers on the wharf carrying goods, and there is an endless stream of business travelers.

Lou Yu and the others were not very eye-catching.

They searched for someone and asked for directions, and went straight to the City Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.

The doctor checked Lou Yu's pulse, said that he had suffered from a cold, prescribed a prescription, and explained some precautions.

Feng Erbi asked: "Doctor, we are all merchants and have no place to stay. Can we borrow some equipment from the medical clinic to make some medicine?"

It is really inconvenient on the grain ship.

The doctor hesitated.

Feng Erbi said again: "I'll pay more for the consultation fee!"

The doctor nodded in agreement, ordered the medicine boy to take the medicine, and led a few people to the backyard to boil the medicine.

The hospital is not too big, and the backyard is very cramped. Once several mighty and strong men stand there, the small courtyard is filled to the brim.

Feng Erbi boiled the medicine with the help of Yaotong, while Huo Yan and several soldiers guarded Lou Yu's side firmly.

Lou Yu couldn't help laughing: "Don't be so sullen, didn't the doctor refuse to agree just now?"

"Doesn't the doctor want to get more money?" Jiang Yong wondered.

Lou Yu laughed again, sitting on the twig, his drowsy head bit by bit.

The backyard is close to the front hall, and the loud voices from the front hall can be heard clearly.

"Have you heard? The king has a baby. I heard that it is an extremely rare flower. The flower looks whiter than clouds and softer than fur. It is called Baiyun flower!"

"How can a flower be softer than fur? Is this still called a flower!"

"It is indeed a flower, with several petals in bloom!"

"That's really strange. I don't know if Wang Yuanwai will hold a flower viewing party this time."

"I heard that he raised this flower himself. It used to bloom pink and yellow, but now it's white again. It's amazing!"

"He is so precious, can we still see him?"

"Don't worry about it. My brother-in-law is working in Yuanwai's mansion. He said that Wang Yuanwai will hold a flower viewing party the day after tomorrow. Everyone, go and watch it!"

"How much do I have to pay to get in this time?"

"It's probably even higher than before, after all, it was planted by a member of the staff."

Lou Yu: "..."

Tickets are required to enjoy the flowers. This Wang Yuanwai is very business-minded.

His drowsy head immediately revived, and he told Jiang Yong: "Go and inquire about the flower viewing party."

Jiang Yong was ordered to do it.

Feng Erbi was curious: "Young Master, why are you interested in the Flower Appreciation Fair?"

Lou Yu's eyes lit up: "Because I also want to see Bai Yunhua."

He has reason to suspect that the so-called white cloud flower is cotton that can keep warm and keep out the cold, and is suitable for promotion!

After Lou Yu finished drinking the medicine, Jiang Yong came back to inquire about the news.

"My lord, my subordinates have inquired about it. The king of the north of the city will hold a flower viewing party in the mansion in the future. If you want to participate in the flower viewing party, you need to pay ten taels of silver."

Feng Erbi said in shock: "Ten taels! Are you stealing money?"

What kind of flowers need to pay [-] taels to take a look at them?This king's heart is really dark!

Lou Yu said, "Then we will stop the boat for two days and wait until the flowers are finished before we set off."

Feng Erbi thought about it, this is good, His Highness can still recuperate.

Having decided to stay here for two more days, Jiang Yong found an inn in the north of the city. The inn is not far from Wang Yuanwai's house, which is very convenient.

Wang Dayong and others stayed on board with the government soldiers, while Lou Quan, Yang Ji'an, and Sun Jingwen all went ashore to live in the inn.

"Brother, I won't go to see flowers. Each person gets ten taels of silver."

Don't look at Lou Quan as a princess, but in the past four years in Ning Enhou's mansion, her life is not as good as that of a daughter of a ninth-rank petty official's family.

She had to live on a budget.

Lou Yu held her hand distressedly, "Sister, I have money, and besides, the emperor gave me a hundred gold, what is ten taels, I just want to take you to see it."

His elder sister has lived carefully for four years, and she finally got out of the cage. Lou Yu wanted her to be more relaxed.

Lou Quan couldn't hold back him, so he had no choice but to agree.

She even thought that when she returned to Gyeongju, she would make a lot of money so that her parents and brother would not suffer.

Life in Qizhou was fairly peaceful, Lou Yu slept in the inn for a day and a night, and finally recovered.

Yang Ji'an and Sun Jingwen came to look for him, and said sincerely: "Your Highness, we don't want to go to enjoy the flowers, why don't we wait for you at the inn tomorrow."

Lou Yu knew exactly what the two children were thinking.

It's nothing more than not wanting to waste money.

Lou Yu has never been one to save money, especially when it comes to raising children.

He smiled and said: "You are still young, it is not a bad thing to learn more."

Yang Ji'an chuckled: "I know His Highness is doing it for our own good, but I think it's too bad to spend ten taels of silver just to look at the flowers."

Sun Jingwen also nodded in agreement.

"I heard that Wang Yuanwai has collected a lot of exotic flowers and plants, but Baiyun flowers are not the only ones. You will be able to broaden your horizons at that time, and you will not lose at all. Moreover, most of the flower viewing parties will be celebrities from Qizhou City. Long experience is also good.”

It is necessary to see more people and the world.

Seeing that the two were struggling, Lou Yu asked directly: "Could it be that you don't have confidence in yourself, and you won't even be able to earn ten taels of silver back to me?"

Yang Ji'an immediately stated: "Of course not! Your Highness, I will definitely make a lot of money in the future!"

All the money earned will be handed over to His Highness!

In a blink of an eye, the day of the flower viewing party came.

The flow of people from Qizhou City to the north of the city surged, there were wealthy businessmen in silk and satin, ordinary people in coarse linen and linen clothes, and peddlers hawking.

The former two are to watch the fun, and the latter is to make a little money.

Rich people pay money to enter the house, while those without money can only watch the fun outside the door.

Lou Yu led Lou Quan, Huo Yan, Feng Erbi, Yang Ji'an, Sun Jingwen, and others, pretending to be wealthy businessmen, to the front of the palace.

They were all dressed in silk and satin, with outstanding appearance and extraordinary demeanor. The porter did not dare to neglect them when he saw them. He stepped forward and said with a smile: "Dear guests, each person needs to pay ten taels of silver to enter the house to enjoy the flowers."

Lou Yu glanced at Feng Erbi.

Feng Erbi immediately took out 60 taels.

"Hold on, honored guest," the concierge accepted the silver tael with a smirk, and took out six pocket wooden plaques, "This is a token of admission to the park, everyone, please keep it safe, and don't lose it."

Wang Yuanwai had a special liking for exotic flowers and plants, so he specially set up a garden in the house, which was called "Treasure Garden".

The six of Lou Yu walked all the way, and wherever they looked, there were a lot of flowers, water trees and clear flowers, and the water pavilions and pavilions in the house were exquisite and gorgeous, unique and refined.

"It's a good place." Lou Yu couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Feng Erbi said: "If the young master wants it, we can also build a courtyard, it must be more beautiful than this."

"You're the one who is cunning," Lou Yu tapped his forehead with the tip of his fan, "Is there any place to spend more money?"

Although he doesn't like to save money, he doesn't spend it casually either.

The huge city of Gyeongju is in urgent need of construction, how can he have the heart to build a garden?

Feng Erbi covered his head and smiled: "Then wait for a chance in the future."

He turned his head and asked, "Huo Yan, do you think so?"

Lou Yu shook his head helplessly, it would be useless to ask Huo Yan this question.

With Huo Yan's old-fashioned temperament, he would definitely think that building a garden is not as practical as increasing the military pay.

Unexpectedly, Huo Yan nodded in agreement: "Yes."

Lou Yu looked at him in surprise: "Don't you think it's extravagant?"

"will not."

Huo Yan's eyes were sincere, without any falsehood.

He really felt that it was not a waste to build a unique garden for the person in front of him.

Lou Yu couldn't help but said to Yang Ji'an: "After admiring the flowers, we have to find a Taoist temple to exorcise evil spirits."

This Huo Yan might not be a ghost.

"Haha, Huo Yan, quickly prove that you are not a fake!" Yang Ji'an teased.

Huo Yan was a little helpless.

"Brother," Lou Quan covered his lips and snickered, "If you want it, how can it be called a waste?"

Several people talked and laughed and walked to the gate of Zhenyuan.

Just as he was about to hand over the wooden token, a voice suddenly shouted from behind:

"Master Zhifu is here—"

Lou Yu turned around and looked over.

A middle-aged man with small eyes and short beard walked over with a big belly, followed by a string of entourage, who put on a good posture.

It just so happened that Lou Yu and six people were standing at the gate of Zhenyuan, blocking part of the road.

The prefect's entourage immediately stepped forward and shoved: "The prefect is here, hurry up and avoid it!"

Who would have expected the magistrate's followers to be so arrogant?

Lou Yu couldn't react in time, staggered a step back, accidentally stepped on a small stone, and was about to fall.

A hand quickly wrapped around his waist, using skillful strength to help him up.

After standing still, Lou Yu looked at Huo Yan: "Thank you."

Huo Yan's face was serious and his eyes were cold, staring at the attendant who was still pushing.

"What are you looking at! Look at your dog's eyes again!"

The attendant looked contemptuous and uttered wild words.

Lou Yu: "..."

He was even more arrogant than Guo Lian.

Huo Yan's right hand moved slightly, and the attendant suddenly felt a numbness in the knee, and knelt down on the ground involuntarily, howling in pain.

Seeing this, the magistrate frowned and looked at Lou Yu and the others.

When he saw Lou Quan, he couldn't help but pause slightly.

Lou Yu felt something, stepped forward to block Lou Quan, and Huo Yan blocked Lou Yu again.

Feng Erbi laughed: "Oh, you don't have to give such a big gift if you want to apologize!"

The attendant opened his mouth to scold, the magistrate said: "Today's flower viewing party, don't let Mr. Hongzhai's elegance go."

Wang Yuanwai's nickname is "Hongzhai", and he once wrote a poem chanting "Luohong" and got this nickname.

The attendant endured the soreness in his legs, and gave Lou Yu and the others a vicious look.

There are servants as there are masters. It seems that the prefect of Qizhou is also an arrogant person on weekdays.

"My lord is here today, the small garden is full of splendor!"

The king went out of the treasure garden, walked quickly to the magistrate, bowed and bowed to show respect.

The magistrate smiled and said: "Mr. Hongzhai, you don't have to be polite. Today, the official came here just to enjoy the flowers, so you can be casual."

That being said, none of the people present knew that if you were really casual, the magistrate would definitely write it down in a small notebook, and seize the opportunity to give you small shoes to wear.

Wang Yuanwai stretched out his hand respectfully: "My lord, please."

After they entered Zhenyuan, Lou Quan worriedly asked: "Brother, did you get hurt just now?"

Lou Yu smiled and said, "No, but the follower was injured, right?"

He looked at Huo Yan.

Huo Yan frowned coldly: "Yes."

The knee will hurt for ten days and a half months.

Yang Ji'an's eyes were burning: "You are amazing! Can you teach me?"

Huo Yan: "This technique requires strong wrist strength."

The implication is that your little arms and legs are not up to standard.

When Yang Ji'an thought of Huo Yan's terrifying physical strength, he couldn't help feeling sad.

Six people entered Zhenyuan.

Zhenyuan is worthy of being Zhenyuan, with exotic flowers and plants in it, competing for beauty.

Sun Jingwen was a little girl, and she didn't have much experience, so she couldn't move her legs.

His Highness is indeed right, so he should gain more insight.

Most of the people who participated in the Flower Appreciation Party were wealthy locals from Qizhou. They knew each other and exchanged pleasantries when they met.

Lou Yu and the others were unfamiliar faces, no one came forward to greet him, so he was happy and quiet.

"My lord, which one do you think is the white cloud flower?" Yang Ji'an searched all over the garden for flowers and plants, but he couldn't find any that matched the description.

Feng Erbi said: "Of course the good show will come later. Young master, don't you think so?"

Lou Yu nodded.

Just when everyone was waiting impatiently, Wang Yuanwai came late with Bai Yunhua.

He stood on the high platform, and two servants behind him brought out a large flower pot, and a piece of red silk was draped over the plant and dropped to the ground.

Everyone was surprised that the flower was as tall as one person!

The red silk clearly outlines the shape of the plant, and the top is even with Wang Yuanwai's hair crown.

Wang Yuanwai laughed and said, "It's a great honor for you to be here today. If you don't mind, can you take off the red silk for this white cloud flower?"

The prefect stroked his beard and said with a smile: "This is my honor."
