Li Luo replied calmly: "Father, I have no intention of gaining power in the city. I'm sure my uncle won't make me the crown prince, so it would be better for me to withdraw as soon as possible."
Prince Chun muttered: "Now that I think about being single, it will be difficult to reach the sky. Lou'er must remember not to be too ostentatious, so as not to be criticized by the public.
Just like when you were in Dizhou, the legislative changes were very different from other places, and it was inevitable that the young people would make excuses, so don't be careless."
Li Luo respectfully agreed, and the two chatted for a few more words. Li Luo apologized and retired. Prince Chun called Li Luo to his side and said calmly: "I have the opportunity to advise your uncle, but even as a father, I can't guess what the Holy Master is thinking."
What, I'm afraid only you can have a few words with the Holy One."
Li Luo agreed and quietly left the tent.
It's almost midnight when night falls.
The place where the dignitaries camped was still brightly lit, with strings of strings, bamboos, and the singing of birds and warblers, and it was a glitzy scene.
Li Luo randomly asked a few people and found Zhang Zeliu's residence. He walked over and when he got closer, he heard bursts of wild talk and laughter coming from the tent, mixed with the sound of women's laughter.
, even passers-by hurriedly passing by outside the tent couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Li Luo smiled bitterly, took a long breath, stood outside the tent, looked at the faint mountains in the distance, and was lost in thought.
Inside the tent, there are fine wines and delicacies, brocade clothes, red candles and flying sleeves.
Zhang Zeliu stood with one foot on the table, holding a cup in one hand and akimbo in the other, talking loudly, eloquently, spitting, but he was talking about Li Luo.
"Li Luo, Li Xuanlou, and my fourth brother Zhang Zeliu, you all, take a good look at how this momentum is comparable to that of Ling Gumian and others. Let them be hypocritical and sanctimonious. How?
How can someone be as magnanimous as Lao Si?
He still pretends to be arrogant all day long and thinks he is noble. Only if he has the ability to go to the border gates of the Western Regions and show off with great authority will it be great."
"Yes, yes." Several people in the seats under the tent responded casually.
Zhang Zeliu became angry and cursed loudly, which was really not much different from a common man.
A dandy rich man said feebly: "Brother Zhang, the times are not as good as in the past. The young prince is now a highly decorated general. He is a well-known general with hundreds of thousands of troops under his command. Who has the leisure to hang out with us? In my opinion,
, I’m afraid it’s hard to say.”
Although Zhang Zeliu is not doing his job properly, he is not stupid. He can naturally understand the meaning of the speaker.
Li Luo's reputation is getting stronger day by day, so he may not be able to respect himself, and he may not get too close to people like him, or he may become more and more indifferent.
Just when Zhang Zeliu hesitated slightly, Di Chengning shouted coldly: "Fart."
Zhang Zeliu was stunned and shouted: "Cheng Ning scolded you well, damn, is the fourth person like this? I've blinded you."
Huh, I don’t believe that the fourth child will not miss us. If it’s like you said, I’ll cut off my head and use it as a chamber pot for you.”
Everyone in the tent started laughing, even the rich young man who was scolded was not annoyed and just kept to himself and started teasing the woman next to him.
Zhang Zeliu's anger skyrocketed and he was about to curse when he heard a chuckle from outside the tent: "When I wake up in the middle of the night and see a chamber pot with your appearance, I'm scared to death even if it's peeing."
Everyone in the tent was stunned for a moment. Zhang Zeliu was also startled. He looked at Di Chengning and said with a joyful smile: "Li Luo!"
The curtain moved slightly, and Li Luo walked sideways into the big tent, glanced at everyone in the tent, looked at each other with a smile, and said softly: "Long time no see."
Di Chengning stood up and shouted: "Li Luo, you are really here."
Zhang Zeliu took a few steps forward with all his strength, ran in front of Li Luo, put his arm around Li Luo's shoulders, and laughed loudly: "After all, you are here."
Li Luo smiled slightly, glanced at Di Chengning, nodded slightly, then looked at Zhang Zeliu, Qi Yan said: "We haven't seen you for two years, but you have gained some weight."
Zhang Zeliu was so drunk that he leaned against Li Luo and gasped: "Fourth, it's not like you don't know me. I can eat and sleep all the time, but I tend to gain weight easily. You have been away in Xifu all these years.
You see, I worry about it a lot. The more I worry about it, the more I want to eat, which is good. I didn’t expect you to come back, but I gained a few pounds instead, hey."
Li Luo laughed dumbly and said, "So, it's my fault."
Zhang Zeliu waved his hand and shouted enthusiastically: "Li Luo, sit down quickly and take a closer look. These girls today are very elegant and tight. They were all specially selected by me. They don't sell their bodies in the studio, they don't."
How about those rouge powders?
Sit down quickly, we brothers haven't had a drink together for a long time, and we must not get drunk tonight."
After saying that, Zhang Zeliu hurriedly found a table, pulled over two women with surprised faces, asked them to put down tea and drinks, and got busy.
Li Luo looked at the candlelight in the tent quietly, and in a trance, he seemed to have returned to many years ago. When he was young, he had nothing to ask for, no desires, indulgence but not freedom. In front of the flowers and under the moon, in the pile of rouge, he spent a lot of time indulging in money and spending nothing.
False.
There was a sudden silence in the tent. Everyone looked at Li Luo, wondering what Li Luo was thinking.
Zhang Zeliu was still busy refilling the cups when he suddenly felt a condensation under the tent. He looked up and saw everyone staring at Li Luo. He didn't know why. He stood up and was about to call out when he suddenly saw Li Luo, who was in a daze.
He looked like he was swallowing the words that came to his lips, his heart felt cold, and the drunkenness just now disappeared without a trace.
Zhang Zeliu and Di Chengning looked at each other, their hearts darkened, and they sighed slightly, feeling an inexplicable sadness welling up in their hearts.
Zhang Zeliu forced out a smile in frustration and was about to speak. Suddenly, Li Luo coughed lightly and said loudly with a smile on his eyebrows: "I only know that flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year, but I don't know
Year after year, month after month, the flowers are different and the people are different, but the wine is still there and the wind and moon are fragrant."
After saying that, he paused for a moment, looked at Zhang Zeliu and Di Chengning, and said with a big smile: "The righteousness between you and me is between you and me. Li Luo has no regrets. You blame me for being late today. I will punish you with three cups first. Zeliu, Chengning, please forgive me."
Sin, everyone, we will not return until we get drunk tonight."
Zhang Zeliu let out a long breath, touched his chest, and said with a wry smile: "General Li, I thought, hey."
Li Luo pulled Zhang Zeliu to sit down. Hearing Zhang Zeliu's unfinished words, he chuckled and looked calm. He drank three glasses in a row. The beautiful woman beside him hurriedly filled it up. She looked at Li Luo curiously but with some awe.
Dare to get too close.
Li Luo raised his glass and smiled slowly: "Li Luo borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha, and I would like to toast you all first."
Everyone in the tent hurriedly returned the gift, and Zhang Zeliu burst out laughing. He was very proud of himself and felt that everyone was honored.
Di Chengning snorted coldly, but drank it all in one gulp.
Zhang Zeliu blushed, slapped the table and shouted: "Okay, we brothers are all together, no one is allowed to leave early today, and whoever can get Li Luo drunk, I will give him a hundred taels of gold, the beauty here
, except for those who have a master, I will not be stingy if I pick one." (To be continued.)
