Li Er's brows wrinkled slightly. To say that these two children were fighting with each other to some extent. In the past, it was a secret fight, but this time it was openly fought. Why?
"Don't be anxious, don't panic. Speak slowly!" Queen Changsun said slowly.
"Back to the Queen, there was a garden party today. I don't know why, but the two princes got into an argument, and then they started fighting, but they didn't call the guards. They all took action by themselves. No weapons were used.
They started fighting with bare hands, but luckily General Qin pulled him away as he passed by, and now he is at the city guard post on Zhuque Street."
The City Guards Station was the former Wuhou Pu, so it is more appropriate to call it City Guards.
After hearing this, Empress Changsun gently pressed Li Er's hand and said to Li Yuanxing: "I'm afraid ordinary officials can't handle this kind of thing well. How about Wu Lang going to take a look?"
"That's fine, my brother, let's go take a look!"
Li Yuanxing understood what Empress Changsun meant. This kind of princes who did not reach adulthood and were originally under the control of the harem, but one was Empress Changsun's own son and the other was the son of Concubine Yang. Neither the queen nor the concubine could come forward.
The other three concubines might not be able to get involved.
Li Yuanxing is the most suitable candidate.
Chang'an City, Zhuque Street City Guard Office, a young city guard is writing official documents.
That means that you two fought in the street and knocked over two dim sum stalls and a lantern stall. So you were fined twenty guan each, of which 16 guan was used to compensate the three
Stalls, as well as the affected roads, including those whose clothes were torn when the dim sum stalls were knocked over.
You know, it's the New Year, even poor people will wear silk, so there are not many sixteen strings.
The remaining four passes are fines, which are heavy penalties.
"They will be punished for sweeping the streets for another three days." Li Yuanxing came in from outside. Someone had already reported the situation here to him.
Qin Qiong was also there. When he saw Li Yuanxing coming in, he took the initiative to greet him: "I didn't want to disturb Wu Lang. It was just a fight between children. It's not a big deal. The money from the three stalls has already been paid."
Two little guys who are eleven years old and not yet twelve years old, have a maturity beyond modern people.
At the same time, he stood up and saluted: "Uncle Five Emperors!"
The city guards from the city guard station also hurriedly came over and saluted: "His Royal Highness King Qin is well." Someone also brought chairs.
"Tell me, why are you fighting?" Li Yuanxing asked with a cold face after sitting down.
The two little guys only used their fists. If they saw blood, they would only break their noses or break them when they fell to the ground. A medical officer had already given them medicine, so it was not a big deal at all. But if they were whipped in future generations, I'm afraid they would follow.
Their guards will be implicated.
Hearing Li Yuanxing's question, the two looked at each other and shook their heads gently.
Li Yuanxing smiled coldly: "It's for the land at the pier next to Balin. You two people in the house have good taste. That piece of land is indeed a good piece of land. It is a straight road from the dock cargo yard, and it is not bad to take the land route. But the important thing is
What's more, there is a small river behind it, and the only land that can be used to build a boat dock is that land. Therefore, this land is the best choice for inland transfer."
As soon as Li Yuanxing said this, the two little guys lowered their heads.
"You didn't ask the guards to take action. There should be two reasons. First, once the guards take action, the noise will be very loud. And there will definitely be injuries. It's inappropriate to let anyone get hurt during the Chinese New Year. It seems that you
It’s not bad to show pity to the people around you!”
"The bidding was a hidden bid, and the piece of land was fairly invested by my nephew. The money was used to sell Yinshan stocks, and some was borrowed from the bank with 10% profit per year." Li Ke spoke first.
This also proves that Li Yuanxing's guess was correct, it was for the land.
Originally, there was more than one place on the small river where a small dock could be built. But that was the natural place where there was almost no need for major construction work.
When dividing the bids, the officials who drew the land did not consider too many terrain issues. They first drew out the road according to the plan, and then found the same size and drew one block after another.
What a coincidence is that the small natural pier is right in the middle of the two pieces of land.
What's more coincidental is that the land for the shops in Jiugang was tendered for one piece. Who would have thought that what Li Chengqian and Li Ke bought were actually two adjacent pieces of land.
Perhaps, if we change people and give another piece of land to anyone, they can cooperate with each other to build a dock.
But it's absolutely impossible for the two of them.
They are the same age, no one is impressed by the other's knowledge, and they are not much different in terms of martial arts. Although one is the son of the queen, the other is the princess of the previous dynasty, so they are both noble.
Even though their personalities are very reserved, they are still eleven or twelve year olds after all.
"You're not convinced, right? How about this, Uncle Five Emperors makes the decision?" Li Yuanxing asked with a smile.
Li Chengqian stepped forward and saluted: "Uncle Five Emperors made the decision, Cheng Qian is convinced." Li Ke also hurriedly came out to express his position. You must know that the most fair person in the Tang Dynasty was the King of Qin Li Yuanxing. When distributing such benefits, no one was dissatisfied.
"How many personal guards do you have around you? I'm afraid there won't be less than 200 of them each."
Both little guys nodded.
"Can you play baseball?" Li Yuanxing asked again.
"Uncle Five Emperors, there is no man in the Tang Dynasty who can't play baseball." Li Ke came up and responded.
Yes, baseball seems to be an ordinary sport. What you practice is batting. It can be said that you also practice one of the simplest and most direct sword skills. The power of chopping must not be underestimated. Then
Who among the men of the Tang Dynasty didn't know the art of pitching? The most powerful individual weapon of the Tang Dynasty was the hand-thrown thunderbolt.
Running, teamwork, tactics. Men are crazy about each of them.
"Among your personal guards, form your own team. You will sweep the streets for three days, every four days. The Fifth Emperor has decided to give you half a day in the Lemin Garden Arena, and you will compete. The loser
, is it fair to sell your land to the winning party at 80% of the market price?"
Li Yuanxing asked if it was fair. He was a little worried that the two sides might not have the same strength. Such a game would be like a strong team versus a weak team, and it would not be considered fair.
In fact, Li Yuanxing underestimated the arrogance of these two and a half-year-old children, the bloody nature of the people of the Tang Dynasty, and even the gambling tendency of the Tang Dynasty.
"Thank you, Uncle Five Emperor!" The two of them saluted at the same time.
"Before noon tomorrow, report the list of participants to General Qin. The first rule is that the number of participating team members can reach twenty. Nine are selected and the rest are supplementary. The second rule is that these twenty people must be in
If your guard has been with you for more than three months, temporary helpers will not be counted. The third rule is that tomorrow you will personally sign a letter to General Qin. Go back, the game will start at noon on the Lantern Festival, and the game will be a nine-inning game."
The two princes retreated.
"Wu Lang is brilliant!" Qin Qiong said with a smile.
"There is no way. Young people are very angry. No one can reconcile them if they don't let them out. If you lose, if you are not convinced, you can just come back and gamble next year to see what the stakes are. According to their status, they will never
As for starving to death, it’s impossible not to lose. Besides, it’s much better than fighting and killing.”
Qin Qiong smiled and shook his head: "Their problem is solved, Wulang's trouble will come soon."
"Why?"
"Some evil guests will come to our door tomorrow!" Qin Qiong smiled but did not explain.
Evil guests, will there be evil guests in Prince Qin’s palace?
Li Yuanxing didn't believe it, but Qin Qiong said that he would definitely visit tomorrow and see if there were many bad visitors.
When Li Er heard the following report, he thought that this was also a good way to solve the problem. It is better for two children to fight openly than secretly. Moreover, the money earned was from overseas, so what could happen if one piece less was more than one piece?
.
Empress Changsun said to Eunuch Gao: "I sent a handwritten letter to Concubine Yang."
The tone of Queen Changsun's letter is very gentle. It means nothing more than that the children have grown up and are fighting for some unavoidable interests for themselves and the supporters behind them. Fair competition does not hurt the brotherhood, which is a great kindness. As a mother, support
It is a competitive spirit, but we must suppress the aggressive spirit.
Finally, Empress Changsun said that as a mother, she would naturally support her son as he became a real man.
A bracelet of the finest imperial green glass bets that Cheng Qian will win.
Concubine Yang read the letter and replied.
Supporting Empress Changsun's statement, Concubine Yang was very smart. Knowing that this was a letter written by Empress Changsun in front of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, it showed that Li Er supported it.
So she accepted the bet.
The bet that Concubine Yang made was a Golden Phoenix Chaoyang buckle carved from golden crystal. This is a buckle on the belt. The back is copper and the front is inlaid with this crystal buckle. It is six centimeters long and about four centimeters high. It is made of good material.
, the work is even better.
One is a queen and the other is a noble concubine, both of whom stood up to support their sons.
Even though Li Tai was not usually convinced by Li Chengqian, at this time he placed an order for a 1,300-ton twin steamship. If he lost, he was willing to sell the ship at the original price.
Li Tai's gamble can be regarded as money. You must know that his ship will be launched in two months at most. If it takes at least eight months to reorder, who can say that these six months are not money?
Li Tai dared to be obscene and made it clear that he supported Li Chengqian. Li Ke's half-brother Li Min took 300 yuan for his brother, as well as an order for an 800-ton steamship to be launched the next month.
Thai gambling.
The royal children, whether they were Li Er's younger brothers and sisters, or his own sons, daughters, and nieces, they were all like grasshoppers jumping out of the pot. Poor Eunuch Gao was forced to become
The dealers, the princes, princes and daughters, bet as much as ten or eight cents, and some as little as several hundred pennies.
Eunuch Gao had an idea. That night, the eight major gambling houses that were officially registered in Chang'an City jointly opened the market.
The odds are determined by the betting ratio, and the original odds are naturally one to one. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
