"Your Highness, please sit here!"
Princess Chao has given up her position there. For Li Zhi, Princess Chao is extremely happy at this time. After all, her son is withdrawn. Princesses can play in one place.
Chapter 377
Although Princess Chao is always at odds with the concubines in the palace, she doesn't want her son to be the same.This is very similar to today's holy majesty, the more he can't get it, the more he wants his son to get it.
His Majesty wants his sons to be united and harmonious, with deep brotherhood, while Princess Chao wants her sons to have fun with other princes and princesses and grow up together.
This is probably a common psychological effect. For example, I am obviously poor, but I hope that my children will be very promising and rich.May I ask, can you give your children the social relationship foundation and wealth foundation they need?
Li Zhi sat down, sniffing the fragrance of tea, and looked at Wu Meiniang, who was 19 years old at that time, smiled at King Jin, gently lifted the teapot, and poured a cup of strong tea for King Jin.
Princess Chao sat there, looking at Li Zhi and Wu Meiniang. As the former Princess of Qi, this woman has also experienced many trials and hardships and too many human feelings. For many things, she is the most accurate and thorough.
Looking at the eyes of the two of them, she already understood a lot. Her younger sister might be thinking about King Jin, but this is a taboo in the palace.
There is only one way to break this taboo, the man in front of him has supreme power, no one can restrain him.
But for King Jin at this time, it seemed difficult. After all, the position of prince alone was already a moon in the water and a flower in the mirror for King Jin at this time, which was beyond reach.
Prince Li Chengqian has been sitting on the throne for a long time, and he has been extremely stable. For him, the biggest threat is Li Tai, not Li Zhi.
At this time, Princess Chao deliberately took a few more glances at Li Zhi, and silently picked up the teacup. The steaming fragrance of tea made Princess Chao's charming appearance a lot more psychedelic, and her slender hand suddenly pressed on Li Zhi's shoulder.
"Your Highness, how do you find the moon in the water?"
Princess Chao suddenly asked a question, but it seemed extremely abrupt.
"It takes nine days to catch the moon, and you can't catch it in the water."
"Oh, I have always heard that the moon is held in nine days, but the sky is too high."
"So you have to step on something or someone to get it."
"Your Highness, what do you think if you hold the moon?"
"Of course I will meet that Chang'e."
Princess Chao smiled lightly, gently twisting Li Zhi's shoulders with her jade hands, then got up, and walked outside with the pottery cup in her hand.
For a while, a few little princes and princesses ran here, making this usually clean palace much more lively.
"Ming'er, run slowly, look at you, sweating profusely."
Li Zhi had already walked out, smiling at Princess Chao, the princes and princesses there had already run to Li Zhi's side, and Princess Chao had asked someone to prepare a carriage, and several people got into the carriage one after another.
"My lord, I will use this carriage for a while more today."
"Well, Your Highness can do it himself."
When Li Zhi left, the teacup in Princess Chao's hand was also empty.There, Wu Meiniang came out from the inside, looked at her sister, and then at the back of the carriage going away.
"Sister, do you think he can hold the moon of nine days?"
"That depends on whether he wants to."
"If you want to get something, someone, you must have a corresponding identity, such as you and me. Only imperial power can destroy all obstacles."
"Your Highness is quite close to the moon."
"Don't take risks, it's very dangerous."
"Sister, do you think the life in this palace is too peaceful?"
"That's true. I have tomorrow, and I want tomorrow to grow steadily. If you want to be exciting, there is nothing wrong with it."
"Sister, I don't want to be exciting, but I just can't get used to the calmness that makes people go crazy."
Princess Chao's hand suddenly landed on Wu Meiniang's jade shoulder, and then the jade hand fell slowly along that perfect shoulder line, and landed on Wu Meiniang's mountains, rivers and moons that Li Zhi had been infatuated with for countless times, and then the hand The jade hand slowly covered Wu Meiniang's heart.
"Your temperament is not like your aunt at all, but like your father when he joined Gaozu in Jinyang. You always want something in your heart, and you are even desperate for it."
In Daming Palace, the pear grove was already full of fruits at this time, and there were very few people here. The fruit trees planted in the palace usually have ripe fruits, then fall freely, turn into fruit puree, and nourish the earth again.
Occasionally, court ladies and eunuchs pick it, and they just pick one or two to quench their thirst.
But today, this pear grove is extremely lively, and several court ladies and eunuchs were also called here, climbing trees to pick pears, and under the trees, there are many ripe pears piled up, and the princes and princesses are not greedy for these pears , I just think picking fruit is fun.
It's just that the king of Jin deliberately asked people to load a lot of pears into a carriage, and it was almost half full before giving up.
"Brother Jiu, what do you want so many pears for?"
"There is no pear tree planted in Prince Jin's mansion, this food is distributed to the people in the mansion to eat."
"Then I'll bring some to my concubine too."
A few princes were picking pears there, and Hengshan looked at the pears in the forest, and picked the biggest ones for people to pick.
The last time I hugged a few pears from the pear tree in Wanchun Palace, but the empress mother liked it, and the foot ban was lifted for myself.
The queen mother likes pears, Hengshan naturally picks the biggest one, and Sizi chases Hengshan, afraid that she will run deep into the pear forest.
After all, this is Daming Palace, not Taiji Palace. At this time, Daming Palace is still too big and deserted. What if my sister encounters something in the forest or gets lost.
Jin Wang Li Zhi looked at half a cart of yellow and orange pears. Last time, my aunt said that she was stingy and let her eat enough these few days.
By the way, it seems that eating too many pears is not very good for the stomach.
Then you can't eat too much, Li Zhi thought while nibbling a fresh and sweet pear in his hand.
When everyone left here and passed by the Taiye Pool, Li Zhi saw a few small boats moored on the lake, and asked someone to pick a bunch of lotus plants.
This is a good thing, fresh and tender lotus seeds, white and fat, very delicious, and also very good for people.
When they returned to Prince Jin's mansion, Murong Xueying, who was watching the half-carriage of pears in the carriage, gently covered his mouth. Li Zhi picked Murong Xueying's chin, and only said one thing, this time, he will not say that the king is stingy.
The past few days have been peaceful, but in the blink of an eye, it is already mid-July, the moon was extremely round last night, and today it will be the fullest time of the month.
Later generations often say that the moon on August [-]th is sixteen round, but when Li Zhi came to Datang, he always felt that the moon on the fifteenth day was the roundest. According to astronomy, the moon on the fifteenth day is indeed the roundest. Six rounds of argument.
Is this a kind of love, or lovesickness, I don't want good things to leave too early.That's why it is said that the moon can always be rounded by one more day.
Li Zhi was admiring the moon in the green bamboo garden tonight, looking at the full moon among the bamboo shadows, a glass of wine slowly poured into his throat.
Cui Yan was sitting next to him, also holding a wine glass. His Highness came here specially tonight and only called himself. Cui Yan understood that His Highness had something to say.
Chapter 378 Full Moon
"Yu'er, how is Yinzhuang's affairs going?"
"I thought His Highness wouldn't ask any questions. Since the last time I sat down with Mr. Tang and Consort Cheng, His Highness hasn't mentioned this matter again."
"That's because I'm at ease with you. With you here, I won't ask any more questions. But this matter is something that my father and queen mother told me, so I have to ask. Otherwise, I won't even know about it when they ask about it." How to answer."
"The affairs of the Yinzhuang went very smoothly. With the help of Mr. Tang and Cheng Yuma, five more Yinzhuangs have been opened in the south of the Yangtze River at this time, basically enabling merchants in Suzhou, Hangzhou and Yangzhou to get money on the spot."
"Oh, your approach is to start in Jiangnan, especially in Suzhou and Hangzhou?"
"The circulation speed of this piece of silver is the fastest at this time."
Li Zhi let go of the wine glass and patted the table lightly.
At this time, in the 16th year of Zhenguan, the south of the Yangtze River is prosperous, and indeed the economy is not comparable to that in the north.
In particular, Suzhou, Hangzhou and Yangzhou, a land of fish and rice, are rich in silk and porcelain, and are naturally the economic center of Jiangnan.
When it comes to the circulation speed of silver, there is really no place that can compare with this place.
This circle will always flourish.
"Very well, I need you to worry more."
"When doing things for His Highness, Yan'er will naturally put his heart into it."
"Over there in the garment workshop, are you still in control at this time?"
"If Your Highness wants to, I will hand it over to the Lin family teachers and sisters."
Li Zhi hurriedly waved his hand, but he still didn't want it, she was already busy enough as female doctors, how could she have time to take care of this, besides, they were not this kind of material.
Cui Yan is the most suitable for running this kind of place. This girl has already proved herself with her past experience and achievements.
Li Zhicai would not take the risk of handing over the garment workshop to others. At this time, this is the place where his wealth is made.
However, all of Li Zhi's operations are in the hands of Cui Yan at this time, which is exactly the opposite of that proverb.
All eggs cannot be put in one basket at the same time, and for Li Zhi, everything that involves money is in the hands of Cui Yan, and with Li Zhi's temperament, he really rarely cares.
"Your Highness, if you are worried about the two Miss Lin, His Highness can hand it over to someone else, and Yan'er won't think too much about it."
Li Zhi stretched out his hand, and lightly pressed Cui Yan's hand. After pressing for a while, he had already got up.
"I still need to make you suffer more, but after the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will leave Chang'an for a period of time. You must find a helper so that you can take care of my property in Chang'an."
"Your Highness is going to leave Chang'an with me for a while, could it be that His Highness is already planning to go to Xingyang?"
"Well, it might be possible to abduct a woman with five surnames."
Cui Yan covered her lips and smiled lightly, Li Zhi walked behind her, put a pair of generous palms on the beautiful woman's shoulders, kneading gently.
At this time, Li Zhi leaned down and moved close to Cui Yan's ear, even if he was gently holding the earlobe, this jade earlobe also had a crystal clear jade color, seeing it always makes people a little greedy.
Cui Yan raised his jade hand, gently placed it on Li Zhi's hand, and rubbed the back of Li Zhi's slightly protruding veins.
"This king wants to taste the taste of women with five surnames at this time."
"Your Highness, Yan'er counts as half at most!"
"No, not half of them. One day, I will make the Cui family beg you to re-enter the Cui family and admit your identity as the second young lady of the Cui family."
At that moment, King Jin unconsciously squeezed his hands a little tighter, Cui Yan frowned slightly, then took King Jin's hand and pulled it into his arms, and she sat up gently from the chair so that Li Zhi didn't have to hug himself across the back of the chair.
Under the light of the full moon, Li Zhi hugged Cui Yan tightly, the jade man's ears, side face, and pink neck had already added a lot of crystal color, which was the trace of someone's wanton kiss.
Cui Yan slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the wantonness and aggression of this man.
Every time he kissed deeply, Cui Yan was deeply fascinated. The man's aggression made Cui Yan turn his body slowly without knowing it. Touching King Jin's aggressive lips.
Li Zhi's hand fell on Cui Yan's waist, and an azure belt was untied by King Jin.
The lips were also parted, Cui Yan looked at the man's eyes that seemed to be burning with flames, and raised his hand gently, Li Zhi grabbed the jade hand and placed it on the corner of his lips, kissing every jade finger lightly.
"Yu'er, why did you make this king so intoxicated?"
"Your Highness, I'm afraid that you will not only say this to Yan'er."
"This king tells every woman!"
Cui Yan clenched his fist and lightly beat King Jin's chest, that hand was tightly held by Li Zhi again, greedy for the rouge painted on that finger.
"Haha, you also believe this king's words."
"Yu'er doesn't believe it, but His Highness won't be the only one who said this to me."
"It seems that this is the first time this king has said this sentence, and I may not be able to say it to others a few times in the future."
Cui Yan heard that, but he was overjoyed in his heart, he just hugged King Jin's neck and let him mess around with his jade shoulders and collarbone.
When Li Zhi raised his head again, the shoulder straps on Cui Yan's jade shoulders fell slowly, and the tie of the small coat behind him was also pulled away by Cui Yan.
"Your Highness, Yan'er will serve His Highness to rest."
July [-]th is not a festival, but more or less, there will always be some wonderful things happening on the night of the full moon. Probably at this time, the full moon always makes people think of some joys and sorrows. In the middle of January, it is also the night of the full moon. Chang'an ninth floor business is the best time.
But this year, Qingyue Tower's business is surprisingly good. Recently, the bustling guests almost collapsed the building.
The women in the building, not to mention those singing and dancing prostitutes who would not easily commit themselves to others, even those prostitutes who come and go as soon as they are called, have undergone a huge change in body shape at this time.
The small clothes that King Wei got from Zhuyuan Clothing Workshop had already been distributed to the group of prostitutes who had the most outstanding performance in Qingyuelou.
Now that they got this new equipment, the performance of these prostitutes has skyrocketed. The ones with the best business have already had constant customers all day long, and at night they are still full of customers every night.
This speed of earning money completely exploded on July [-]th. Compared with usual, the income on July [-]th was exactly doubled.
The excited Qingyuelou bustard had sent someone to give the news to King Wei early on. This wave of investment has indeed made Qingyuelou firmly suppress the remaining eighth floors of the ninth floor in Chang'an.
The Qionghua Building was the most affected. In fact, the second floor was the closest, and the guests all ran away there.It's not a leisurely place here, except for the usual regular customers, there are basically no new customers coming here at this time.
The matchmaker looked at the full moon and the few scenes, and sighed.
Her Royal Highness said that Qionghualou will be fine, but at this moment, all the guests have been snatched away.
The matchmaker leaned on the table, and saw a prostitute leaning against the gate, looking at the bustling market at night.
