Chapter 16: Yingguo Gongfu (3)
As for how Li Yuan knew that the warrior was selling his house, it was very simple. Since ancient times, most women basically had no door-to-door words, and the yard was full of sadness, grievances and regrets. Some people insulted his cheap son, but it was not Li Shimin, but the deposed prince Jiancheng.
Li Shimin drove them from the prosperous Chang'an to Lizhou, but they dared not hate them. At this time, there must be a person who attracts hatred. Li Jiancheng, who is undoubtedly dead, is the best target.
No one will have the same knowledge as these lingering women, after all... they are not scolding those in power.
When Samurai heard Li Yuan's slightly concerned words, his face flashed with embarrassment, "Your Majesty knows... I've learned that I've been short of money recently, but I have no choice but to do this."
After saying that, he sighed again, and he shook his head and began to talk about the major events that have happened in the Duke of Ying and the court since Li Yuan was "under house arrest".
Soon a stick of incense passed, and the major events in the court were undoubtedly the change of power. The warriors mentioned it in one sentence, and more about the trivial things that happened in the martial arts family. The bitterness in the words was turbulent, one wave higher than the other.
He was not afraid that Li Shimin would remove his title because of these trivial matters. It was not a big deal to complain in his heart. As long as it was not too obvious that the illegal thing would be fine. It was not as good as the Qing Dynasty's "literary inquisition".
There are many literati who scold Li Shimin, can he block his mouth?
But when Samurai said something happened yesterday, Li Yuan couldn't sit still.
Yesterday, Wang Junguo, Duke of Peng, entered the court from Youzhou and was appointed as the second-rank Zuo Guanglu doctor by Li Shimin. It was nothing at all, but it was very common, but it was vaguely suggested in the mouth of the warrior, Wang Junguo was originally from Li Yuan, and killed the nephew of Lujiang King Li Ai.
"Xinming, it's just a house. In the past, you sponsored me to raise an army in Jinyang, and I can't treat you badly." Li Yuan's mouth curled up slightly, and he secretly wrote down Wang Junkuo in his heart with his small notebook, and then waved to the screen standing beside him.
"Draw the screen, go and take out my jasper coral tree and use it as the tooth at the door. How much is it worth?"
"Jade Coral Tree?" Huaping was surprised and shouted in dismay: "Your Majesty, that Jade Coral Tree is a fine product in the palace. Just like that? I guess I dare not accept those teeth!"
"It's okay, it's just a coral. If I want you to be a coral, then I will be a coral. Where did so many words come from?" Li Yuan frowned.
The screen had no choice but to take the order and retreat, go to the carriage to find the jasper coral tree to be used as it.
The warrior was startled to be a little confused by Li Yuan's hand, but after hearing the 'jasper coral tree', his face changed slightly and he said in surprise: "Your Majesty, I remember that Chen Shubao of the Southern Dynasty once said: The face of the demon girl is like a flower with dew, and the jade tree flows through the back courtyard. This jade coral tree is priceless. Decades ago, the foolish monarch Yang Guang led his army to the Southern Dynasty palace for three days but did not find it. Later, he found Chen Shubao in the dry well. At that time, he was holding this jade coral tree in his arms..."
Poetry from: "Yushu Houting Flower"
Li Yu Fanglin faces the shelf, and her new outfit is beautiful.
The reflecting house is so charming that it doesn't come in at once, and comes out of the curtain and greets each other with a smile.
The girl's face is like a flower with dew, and the jade tree shines on the back courtyard.
The flowers bloom and fall forever, and the fallen reds all over the ground return to silence.
"This... is a broken coral so valuable?" Li Yuan rubbed his forehead, feeling a little uncertain. He knew that ancient corals were precious, but they were not worth it.
In order to show off his wealth, Shi Chong of the Jin Dynasty planted a large number of coral trees in Jingu Garden. Since it was a large number, it means that although this thing was rare, it could still be found. So he specially took this jasper coral tree in his bedroom. Anyway, he came from later generations, so he was not interested in this kind of thing, and he was not as good as a piece of gold in his heart.
"Your Majesty, the jasper coral tree is all over the body, like jade, and is a lonely product among the corals. How can it not be precious? It is worth comparable to the Suihouzhu in the Spring and Autumn Period!" The warrior suppressed his excitement. The warrior died for his confidant. His Majesty treated him like this. He said that the priceless jasper coral tree would be treated as soon as he could.
In fact, the warrior was wrong. Li Yuan really didn’t value him, but he fell in love with his three-year-old daughter. As for pawning the jasper coral tree, it was just an ordinary way of giving kindness. I just didn’t expect that this coral was so expensive?
After thinking about it, I understand that ordinary things can appear next to the Supreme Emperor? The royal things are rare treasures without exception. It is better to have a jasper coral tree inside.
"It's okay! Just a treasure, how can I compare with Xinming you? The King of Qin exchanged the Heshi Bi for the State of Zhao for fifteen cities, but in my opinion, how could Lin Xiang compare with the Heshi Bi? When Lin Xiangru sent to the tiger and wolf cave, King Zhao was wrong, so how could I bear to miss the national sect? However... it was too late to regret it, and only a small amount of money would help him." Li Yuan's heart was bleeding, but he had no choice but to pinch his nose and admit it. He couldn't say that you were not worth the money at this time.
You can only play the iron while it is hot and the emotional card, so that the minister of Warriors is grateful to him, and then devote yourself to learning to show kindness and win over subordinates are essential skills to be an emperor.
In fact, there are many benefits to conquering Samurai. As a former big businessman, his achievements in business are also extraordinary. If Li Yuan wants to restore the throne, he must accumulate strength. The saving of strength requires money. Samurai is one of the candidates Li Yuan is looking for.
Moreover, his kindness to the warrior was also beneficial to him to conquer the heart of Wu Zetian, the daughter.
In a short while, Huaping entered the main room with a jasper coral tree alone. After saluting Li Yuan, she stood by and ignored the warrior. After all, she is a fifth-rank female history and belongs to the palace. She does not have to bow down to the Duke of the State.
Li Yuan carefully observed the Jade Coral Tree for a while, but he didn't look at it carefully when he took it casually this morning. The Jade Coral Tree is only the size of an adult's palm, but it is transparent all over, and shines brightly under the sunlight. Its surface is a skilled craftsman carving fairies dancing gracefully, and it feels as smooth as jade.
In the Tang Dynasty, it is really a rare treasure!
"Draw the screen, call that Yazi in and estimate the price." Li Yuan became more and more reluctant to let it go. He was really afraid that he would say something unchanged at this time, so he could only drive the screen to quickly call Yazi's palm pawn.
The screen had no temper. The fifth-rank female Shi said that she was no longer the same. In front of the Supreme Emperor, she was a maid who carefully placed the jade coral tree in the arms of another palace maid, and then went out of the main room door to look for the figure of the Wang Yajiang.
"Your Majesty, I know your Majesty's kindness, but this jade coral is too expensive, so... forget it." The warrior held back his tears and said, when did the Emperor of Tang Dynasty reach the point where he needed to pawn things to his ministers?
