Chapter one hundred and sixty-five Success in another day
In May, Jinyang finally had a heavy rain to relieve the drought.
Tang gaozu, the left-behind mansion in Taiyuan, looked at the rain, and his face softened slightly. He turned his head and told one side that Li Jiancheng said, "You must remember to be moisture-proof when hoarding food in this heavy rain."
"Yes" Li Jiancheng promised that hoarding food in this warehouse is the most important thing in Taiyuan County. Although hoarding food in this warehouse is not as good as that in Luokou Warehouse in Liyang Warehouse, it is also the largest granary near the border county except Zhuojun. With this warehouse, hoarding food in the city can be done at will. It is no wonder that Tang gaozu has recruited hundreds of thousands of troops in this troubled time.
Soon after the father talked about business, the back door told the official that "the old lady is here."
Tang gaozu was slightly surprised to hear the curtain of the door. A middle-aged woman and a handmaid helped her into the room. At this time, the weather was not hot, but the woman was covered with a big cloak. Her face was pale and her eyes were bright.
When Li Jiancheng saw it, he made a ceremony and said "Niang"
Mrs. Dou nodded, but Tang gaozu said, "If you are in poor health, you will not have a bed. If you have something to ask the servant girl to call me, you can do so. If the wind is so good," Tang gaozu had a heart in his words.
"Xie Fujun’s heart" and Mrs. Dou said out of turn, "I’ll say a few intimate words to your father, so please leave for the time being."
"Yes," Li Jiancheng respectfully ordered Mrs. Dou’s handmaid to withdraw from the door. Mrs. Dou sat on a thick brocade stool and looked at Li Yuan. "I heard that the champion Hou Jia came to Wan’er to ask for relatives and friends yesterday, right?"
Tang gaozu nodded and said "yes"
Mrs. Dou took a deep breath and said, "So what’s your answer?"
Tang gaozu sat beside his wife, took her hand and said with a smile, "Mrs. San Niang is my favorite daughter. It’s not that you don’t know that parents will never hurt their daughters."
Mrs. Dou listened to Tang gaozu’s words and stared at Tang gaozu in tears. "But you know Wan’er’s meaning is …"
When Tang gaozu heard this, he listened to Mrs. Dou with an unhappy face. "Husband, I know that you have always been very assertive in doing things. If you don’t want to marry Wan’er to the champion, you will directly reject others and replace Wan’er with Ruohua …"
Tang gaozu said with a wave, "well, I have my own opinion on this matter, so you should leave it alone and rest at ease for illness."
It is said that Tang gaozu coughed heavily here, and the maid outside the room lifted the curtain and took Mrs. Dou’s sick body and looked at her husband for a long time. Tang gaozu took a look at Mrs. Dou and didn’t turn away.
Soon Mrs. Dou left Li Jiancheng to re-enter the house and saw this scene. She couldn’t help sneering, "Dad, this Li Hufu is really unappreciative. When we look down on hum, I know that such a poor family is inferior, happy and self-pitying. On weekdays, you treat him better, but you feel that others are equal. If you treat him as others, you feel that you look down on him."
Li Jiancheng saw Tang gaozu’s words and went on to say, "Dad, since Li Jiazi thinks that we don’t want this marriage and I don’t want Li Jiazi’s marriage, then we don’t have to take care of the local collusion thieves for them. Which one is not the crime of decapitation? If we echo this, I will be interesting to see who will speak for them."
"Once in power, bathe in monkeys and wait for your official exile!" Li Jiancheng said coldly.
Listening to Li Jiancheng, Li Yuan will hold a drinking bowl and let go of it and ask, "Do you really have this insight?"
Li Jiancheng listened to hurriedly bowed their heads and said, "What’s wrong with dad and kid?"
Tang gaozu sighed and said, "This Li Hufu can have outsiders today. It seems that it is also our Li family’s support. Once the eyes are lost on both sides, outsiders can see that I know people and don’t laugh. Now, if we go out again, what will those outsiders think of me?"
"Let him do what they do, but beg for shame. We must never go back on our word."
Li Jiancheng listened to it with a face of shame and said, "The lesson of dad is that the child is wrong."
Tang gaozu patted Li Jiancheng on the shoulder and said, "I don’t blame your father for being old and his younger brothers for being younger. After San Niang remarried, you and Shimin came to help me. The overall situation will change. It is impossible for us in Taiyuan to watch the fire from the other side. Some things should be prepared for a rainy day. You should remember that everything Dad and I do is our Li family, and so should you."
Li Jiancheng listen to tang gaozu body a shock eyes bursts with a bright color, "dad, you finally willing to according to uncle liu said"
The room was silent to see the son look like this. Tang gaozu had to smile without a word.
"The sky can be expected!"
Li Jiancheng confidently secretly said that after stepping out of the room, Li Jiancheng suddenly felt that everything around him was different. He was also walking with the wind and his entourage. At this moment, he suddenly made fun of saying that Dalangjun had a majestic gait on his way today, which immediately made Li Jiancheng move her eyebrows.
When Li Jiancheng was in a good mood, he said, "Get ready for Sweet Water Lane immediately."
"It’s a big husband". Seeing that Li Jiancheng is in a good mood, his entourage also said in succession.
Li Jiancheng’s followers came to Sweet Water Lane with fresh clothes and angry horses, and then came directly to the front door of a Jinyang government-run big music workshop. When they saw Li Jiancheng, they quickly welcomed him in.
Soon a middle-aged woman greeted her and said with a smile, "It turned out to be a distinguished guest of the Duke of Tang Dynasty."
When Li Jiancheng saw the attendant raise his hand, he bought a silk and said directly, "Where is everyone?"
When the other party saw this silk smile, it was even stronger. "When everyone came to Jinyang, they said that they had been resting on the third floor and closed their doors."
"until when?" Li Jiancheng hurriedly asked.
"I heard that I will stay after the Jin Yanggong ceremony."
Li Jiancheng couldn’t help frowning. "In this case, Zhou Shancai (note 1) will benefit you as soon as you come."
"How dare you?" The woman smiled. "To tell you the truth, everyone has come to Jinyang these days to see their younger brothers, but I don’t know how many, but they are all rejected. I can’t do it. You have to ask the mother."
Li Jiancheng couldn’t help but nod after hearing that others were rejected. "I might as well be an old friend of Qu Everyone’s East Capital. If I go to tell you, I will be flexible. Let me say it myself."
"Good!" When this good talent led the way, Li Jiancheng left his entourage to step on the wooden ladder and go straight to the third floor. On the third floor, there were a lot of hands pressing the handle. The man heard that everyone was going to stay in Yuefang Yuefang and had already sent a lot of guards to guard it.
Li Jiancheng couldn’t help but shake his head, saying that this well-guarded Yuefang is no less than Taiyuan’s left-behind mansion, but it is also a beautiful song, but the more so, the more eager he is to see the beauty.
"It’s been a long time since the mother was seen." Li Jiancheng should salute a woman with a red coat in front.
Mother said with a smile, "isn’t this Li Gong? It’s a great honor to be here. "
Li Jiancheng laughed and said directly, "It’s just fate that I miss the beautiful woman Dongdu in a hurry to see you again. I wonder if you will reward me for my humble opinion?"
Mother chuckled and said with a smile, "Everyone is an acquaintance. It’s a shame for Li Gong to be so polite, but it’s hard for me to take this trip for you."
"Thank you so much."
Li Jiancheng didn’t wait long before he saw that the mother came out with a full face of regret and said, "Li Gongshi is sorry. Everyone heard that you came and struggled to get up to meet, but Nai was sick."
Li Jiancheng’s heart sank when he heard this. "I don’t want to see it either?"
The bride apologized and immediately presented a string of sandalwood beads, saying, "Everyone said that you can’t greet each other with a gift as a souvenir. Please don’t take it amiss."
When Li Jiancheng saw this string of beads, the loss of his heart eased a little. He brushed his sleeve and said, "Where is the mother? It’s still a long time before everyone comes to Jinyang. Will I be in a hurry? Please tell everyone that if he is better, I will be the host?"
"Thank you, Li Gong," said Yun Niang with a smile.
Say Li Jiancheng nodded and sprinkled, but when he went back to the road, his entourage couldn’t stop complaining for the Lord, but Li Jiancheng smiled. If he went to him, he would be furious, but his eyes were not limited to this after Tang gaozu’s words.
If one day my Li family can seize the control of Gankun, then my father will be the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and my office is that a country will inevitably become a treasure if it takes too long. What is this humiliation today?
Li Jiancheng looked back at Yuefang behind the horse and sneered at him. Dad said, Yes, a man’s ambition doesn’t originate in a woman’s body. Today, she can shut me out. If I can’t get a 95-year-old woman, I’ll see her again. She cried and knelt down and begged me. I thought that Li Jiancheng couldn’t help but be complacent and go straight to the house regardless of the market.
At this time, Li Chongjiu, who is hundreds of miles away from the city, is leading hundreds of cavalry to Jinyang at night.
