Life in Youzhou is more colorful than the boring and monotonous life in Jinyang. Li Cunxu has been running around here and there these days and is extremely busy.
He often went to the recruit training camp, either to observe the training of recruits, or to chat with the managers of the training camp. Here, he also met the former tyrant Zhao Ba twice, and had a good relationship with this expert. The Hebei general who commanded cavalry operations discussed cavalry training methods and cavalry combat tactics.
Sometimes, he would go to Youzhou Academy to discuss poetry and music with his teachers. In the academy, he met Pei Ting, the Prime Minister from Bohai. The two people with profound poetry knowledge fell in love with each other at first sight. , poems and poems were sung several times. Pei Ting came specially from Bohai to congratulate Li Chengzhong. His poems are famous all over the country, and he also has many fans in Youzhou Academy. The academy held an autumn banquet specifically for Pei Ting. , many celebrities from Youzhou came, during which the ink poems were fragrant and the silk and bamboo songs were sung. It was indeed a grand event in the literary world.
Li Cunxu participated in the banquet and was like a fish in water. His elegant music was high and his talents and thoughts were flowing out. The lyrics and music he wrote complemented Pei Ting's poems and prose. They were all seated together, feeling in a daze and not wanting to go home.
At Li Suimo's invitation, Li Cunxu visited wealthy families in Youzhou, made friends with their disciples, and met countless distinguished people. During this period, he negotiated a number of business deals: he planned to open a Jinyang branch of Youyan United Bank, with Hedong Li's holding 40% of the shares. Ke Yong Er, Li Kening and Li Cunxu each have one share; to organize Hexishan Coke Workshop, Li Cunxu, Guo Chongtao, and Li Sizhao each have 10% shares; to organize Yunzhou Ranch, Li Cunxu and Zhou Dewei each have 15% shares; to organize Jinyang Garment Workshop, Li Ke Li Kening each had 20% dry shares, Li Cunxu had 10%, and Li Siyuan had 10%...
Invited by Li Suimo and Guo Bingcheng, Li Cunxu also participated in an autumn hunt. The autumn hunt organized by the Yingzhou Social Development Welfare Fund was located under Yanshan Mountain in Jibei, and distinguished guests from all over the world were invited to gather. Li Cunxu was on the autumn hunt. I met the children from the Bohai Da clan, the Gao clan, the U clan, the Yang clan, etc., and met Zhen Xuan, the governor of Xiongjin Prefecture. I met the children of the Silla royal family, Jin Shunji, the superintendent of the Ministry of War, and the Hua brothers and other leaders of the grassland clans... …
To Li Cunxu's surprise, those invited to participate in the Autumn Hunting were Li Jishen, the son of King Qi, and Qian Yuanguan, son of King Yue. Both Li Jishen and Qian Yuanguan were of the same age and status as Li Cunxu, and the three of them quickly They got it together. It was fine that Li Jishen could come to Youzhou, but Li Cunxu was indeed surprised by Qian Yuanguan's arrival. Once he knew about it, Li Cunxu learned a big news: King Yang Xingmi of Wu and King Zhu Quanzhong of Liang had reached a secret agreement , Xuanwu and Huainan formed an alliance!
After returning from Qiu Shou, Li Cunxu hurried back to Guanyi. He hurriedly came to find Guo Chongtao and told him the news.
Guo Chongtao's life these days is far less comfortable than that of Li Cunxu. Ever since he received the twenty-year plan from Lulong Jiedu Mansion, he has been immersed in the study. After that, he got a lot of books from nowhere. The room was piled full of books. These books included "Military Regulations of Lulong Jiedu Prefecture", "Military Service Regulations of Lulong Jiedu Prefecture", "Interim Regulations on the Promotion of Officers of the General Administration of Military Staff", "Officers and Soldiers of the General Administration of Military Staff" Pensions Detailed Rules", "Official Regulations of the Lulong Jiedu Prefecture", "Political Approval Process of the Magistrate's Office", "General Rules for Tax Collection and Payment of the Magistrate's Office", "Judgments of the Youzhou High Court", "Detailed Rules for Merchants and Industrial Business"... all kinds of things , and so on, he even collected things such as the "Pingzhou Army Front Camp Soldiers' Passage Regulations" that have been abolished.
In this guest house, Guo Chongtao was studying and thinking at the same time, barely leaving the door. When Li Cunxu came in, Guo Chongtao's eyes were red, he was biting his pen and was in a daze. His eyebrows were messy, his clothes were disheveled, and he looked
No different than a refugee.
Li Cunxu was startled and asked what was going on. Guo Chongtao just repeatedly praised "The King of Yan has great talent, great talent." Li Cunxu quickly asked if Guo Dianye had gained something in his heart? Guo Chongtao said that he had watched it for a few days.
How can I dare to say that I have gained something even if I have only a superficial understanding of it?
Li Cunxu asked, if Lulong's military administration was really that good, could he learn something from it?
Guo Chongtao shook his head and said, "It's difficult. I can't learn from it at all, unless..."
Li Cunxu asked, unless what?
Guo Chongtao sighed, unless we sweep everything to the ground and start over again!
Li Cunxu remained silent and advised tactfully, since it is not feasible, then why do you bother to look at so many things?
Guo Chongtao said, these are good systems. With this system, there is no need to worry about the country not being prosperous! Although it is useless, it is good to take a look!
Not to mention that Li and Guo were sitting in relative distress, November 11th was the day when King Yan accepted his concubine. The palace of King Yan was filled with joy, and all the wealthy families of Youzhou gathered together, including the military generals who led the army in other places, and the civil servants who governed the country.
Everyone who could come came, including Bohai, Silla, Cheonjin, Grassland, Hedong, Fengxiang, Wuyue and other congratulatory guests who had traveled thousands of miles. The city of Youzhou was filled with people.
Many people don't understand why King Yan chose November 11th. Although this day is also suitable for weddings in the almanac, it is not as suitable as other days. Only Li Chengzhong secretly enjoys it - I won't tell you
, what is the meaning of Singles’ Day!
Princess Xinna is the Qiniang of the Gao family, a daughter of the Gao Liu family. She is the direct sister of the brothers Gao Xinggui and Gao Xingzhou. Qiniang's nickname is Zhuyu, and her reputation has been spread in Hebei since she was a child. There is a saying that "the Gao family has Zhuyu, Youzhou"
The saying "the city is half empty".
When Li Chengzhong came to Youzhou last year, the Gao Liu family wanted to marry a daughter. Li Chengzhong initially wanted Gao Qiniang to be concubines with Wanzhi, Wu Yunsu and Salanna, but how could the Gao family agree? Not only Gao
The family refused, and all the wealthy families were equally unhappy. The Gao family had been in Guizhou for decades, and had deep roots and luxuriant leaves. They were the representatives of the wealthy families in Youzhou. At that time, Gao Siji, with his white horse and silver spear, was recognized by the world as the number one general in Hebei, and his reputation was extremely high.
.Let Gao Siji's legitimate daughter be used as a concubine, and the world will laugh out loud if word spreads about it? This is not only a humiliation to the Gao family, but also a humiliation to the entire Youzhou wealthy family!
Not only did the wealthy Youzhou families refuse to allow it, but even Li Chengzhong's subordinate Wen Wu objected fiercely.
Feng Dao had repeatedly remonstrated, asking Li Cheng to neutralize the princess; Han Yanhui even used fierce words, denounced Li Cheng's many fallacies, and showed his character and character. For a time, he became famous in Youzhou. After Han Yanhui became famous, many civil servants looked at him.
In order to find an advantage, they wrote to Li Chengzhong one after another, asking for the establishment of a concubine, and most of them were those who asked for the name.
In addition to civil servants, there were also calls among military men to establish concubines. These calls came from military generals who came from wealthy families in Youzhou, such as Li Chengyue, Wang Sitong, Zhao Ba and others.
Even Li Chengzhong's family was not at peace. Wanzhi took the lead, followed by Wu Yunsu. Both of them could not stand the pressure and successively warned Li Chengzhong to take the concubine. Salanna did not mention this matter, but it was obvious that she was quite helpless.
After procrastinating for more than a year, in order to take the overall situation into consideration and to have Hebei Civil and Military Forces surround him more closely, Li Chengzhong finally nodded in agreement, held high the banner of accepting concubines, and held a grand wedding banquet in Youzhou. Well, it is actually a bit shameless to say that.
According to the "Youzhou Huaben", Zhou Zhiyu, the governor of Yingzhou, and Zhang Zaiji, the governor and censor of Pingzhou, rushed back to Youzhou from Liucheng specifically for this matter. Together with Guo Bingcheng, the three elders dragged him away.
He dragged Li Chengzhong to a banquet in Gaofu... Then, when Li Chengzhong came back, he was a little distracted and finally nodded and agreed to the marriage.
Qiniang is indeed beautiful. Compared with the three concubines Li Chengzhong has married, she is more refined. Although she does not have Wanzhi's dance and music, her knowledge of poetry and literature is much deeper; she is not as simple as Wu Yunsu, but she behaves tactfully.
; Not as heroic and handsome as Salanna, but full of grace and splendor.
Qiniang of the Gao family welcomed into Prince Yan's Mansion from the middle gate and became Li Chengzhong's official wife, known as Princess Yan. A memorial from the Prince of Yan's Mansion to the imperial court has also been issued, asking for the title of "Mrs. of the State". The Gao family's ancestors were from Xianbei, in the 45th century.
After the descendants of the Qi Emperor a hundred years ago, Feng Dao gave the suggestion of imperial conferment - Mrs. Qi in the memorial he drafted. Of course, the memorial does not need to be sent to Chang'an, it can be sent directly to Han Quanjie, and the prince will be the emperor's bequest.
This is the greatest convenience when hunting in Youzhou.
In addition to the title of "Mrs. Qi" given to Qiniang of the Gao family, Wanzhi, Wu Yunsu and Salanna are also planned to be titled "Ruren", which is the second rank among the prince's wives and concubines, second only to the head wife.
Called "concubine".
The moment Gao's Qiniang entered the palace, Gao Liu stared at her with a smile and tears. Brothers Gao Xinggui and Gao Xingzhou had been laughing from ear to ear all day long, inviting everyone to drink. Zhao Ba didn't know when to find him.
They gathered a group of old friends and took the opportunity to force the Gao brothers to crawl on the ground. Even Li Chengyue and Wang Sitong were dragged along. Zhao Ba also took advantage of them and forced them to vomit and have diarrhea.
After Zhao Ba showed off his power, he went out and laughed three times, "We will take revenge today!" After laughing, he walked away.
That night, Li Chengzhong entered the bridal chamber. Under the high candlelight, he sat on the bedside and looked at the bride. He stared blankly for a long time and couldn't help but sigh. The seventh lady of the Gao family smiled gently: "Li Lang is not satisfied with the slave's appearance?"
Li Chengzhong shook his head and said: "It's so...beautiful! I'm so stupid, I delayed it for a year before marrying you, what a sin, what a sin!" As he said that, he gave himself a slap on the face.
Gao's Qiniang's face turned red, she couldn't help but smile like a flower, which made Li Chengzhong dizzy. Li Chengzhong suddenly stood up, hurried to the table, extinguished the candlestick, and acted like a beast. Gao's Qiniang was pressed down by Li Chengzhong
He fell on the bed, struggled slightly and said: "We haven't drank yet..."
Li Chengzhong murmured: "I can't care less..." In a hurry, he took off his clothes very freely. Just as he was about to draw his gun and go in, he suddenly got up from the bed and went to get a fire to light the candlestick.
Gao's Qiniang was squeaking on the bed and asked softly: "What is Li Lang doing?"
Li Chengzhong chuckled and said: "It's too dark and I can't see anything clearly. It's so refreshing to enjoy it while doing it!"
This sentence made Gao's Qiniang shrink into the brocade quilt in shame and refused to come out. Li Chengzhong was anxious and kept pulling the quilt and said: "Isn't this candle lighting in vain? The wax is wasted... Huh?"
Could it be that this is what Bai Fei said?" (To be continued...)
