Ye An really didn't want to get involved in the fight in the court. Now the place where all parties in the court were fighting was the Privy Council, and the key to the Privy Council was the Privy Councilor.
Now Cao Li was being roasted on the fire. Not only were the civil servants watching, but Liu E was also becoming increasingly dissatisfied with him.
Although he was unwilling to get involved in this matter, from Ye An's perspective, it was time for Cao Yong to retreat bravely, otherwise his end would be tragic.
In the final analysis, he was just a military commander. What a military commander meant in the Song Dynasty was to behave in court with one's tail between his legs. However, by using such a high profile and even arrogance, Cao Cao was simply seeking his own death.
Chen Lin walked very gracefully. From the gorgeous palace clothes on his body, it can be seen that this old guy finally returned to the palace today. Ye An can finally relax. He has never been peaceful during the time Chen Lin was at home.
, the nerves can be said to be highly tense, and the seemingly relaxed state is the most powerful disguise for Ye An and Qin Mumu.
Ye An had seen the scene of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the history books, where "nine heavens closed the palace, and all the nations wore clothes and worshiped the imperial crown." He could imagine what it was like for all the nations to come to court, but when he saw the appearance of the Song Dynasty now, he realized that his
My imagination is still quite lacking.
"Master Marquis, the ox cart cannot move at all! In the past, rules were followed on this royal road, the carriages and horses were in order, and there were divisions for scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, but today..."
Tieniu sat on the bullock cart and complained, but he had a pleasant smile on his face. From time to time he would grab a handful of dried fruits with his hands and stuff them into his mouth to chew. He also did not forget to pass the candied fruits to the man who poked his head out of the carriage.
Ye An.
Ye An ate the candied fruit and casually threw the copper coins to the hawker. The ten or so coins were easily caught in a small basket, and in exchange for it he sang a loud promise.
There are many Hu merchants in the Western Regions, and even camels in oasis can be seen everywhere in the desert. They carry mountains of goods on their backs, and the ropes are almost pulled into the humps.
The Dangxiang people and the Khitan people are more eye-catching, but their hairstyles are too unique. The Dangxiang people and the Khitan people are both bald, but their styles are different. In Ye An's opinion, the Mediterranean style is just like the Sha Matt in later generations.
Is there something wrong with aesthetics?
The Dangxiang people still have huge earrings hanging on their ears. I don’t know whether this is a symbol of wealth or courage, but when it comes to showing off force, the Khitans are better.
The characteristics of the grassland people mean that the Khitan people will always wear a small knife on their waists. Their identity and status can be known from the shape of the small knife.
The ivory handle inlaid with gems and the gold-plated or silver-plated scabbard exudes dazzling light in the sun.
The small businessmen of the Japanese country are always in the corner to greet every guest who happens to pass by with the most courteous smile, but behind them are a group of women dressed in simple clothes but willing to lift up their sleeves and expose their snow-white arms in the winter.
.
Whenever a carriage from the peach blossom shed passes by, the small businessman will abandon his stall and rush over to recommend the woman he brought to the carriage owner.
This kind of peach blossom boxcar was mostly used in brothels and brothels, and Japanese businessmen came to give women away. They were giving away women, not selling them for money. It was not their "conscience" but in the brothels of the Song Dynasty, Japanese women had always been
None of them are very popular.
Only through free gifts can the brothels be reluctantly accepted, and the only condition of these businessmen is that they must pick up these women when they are pregnant.
Many brothels are willing to do this, so why not do it if there is no loss? Besides, who doesn’t know what these Japanese women are here for? Aren’t they just here to seek seed?
They also had to ask the literati of the Song Dynasty to write poems or identities on their belts so that they could show off after they returned. Of course, these Japanese women were as gentle as water, accepting everything, and they were good at serving others.
.
The madam of the brothel is also happy, after all, the literati who come to buy laughter occasionally want some alternative feelings...
Ye An quickly spotted an acquaintance in the crowd. There was no way Roxana was so conspicuous everywhere. With her wheat-colored skin, snow-white mink fur, and eyes that spoke like words behind a veil, no one could pass her by.
Although the body of a greedy person is despicable, it is a man's nature. Even Tieniu can't help but swallow his saliva when he sees it, let alone a yamen who wears gold and silver.
Therefore, there were the most people in front of Rosanna's stall. Ye An was a little confused as to how he could allow people to set up stalls casually as an imperial minister, but in the Song Dynasty, this was a kind of grace for all nations to come to court.
Foreign envoys would more or less come to the Song Dynasty with goods, not only for subsidies, but also to obtain goods from the Song Dynasty.
Pepper was sold at a sky-high price, and Rosanna kept her feet on the ground, constantly instructing her servants to carry the goods, and occasionally making jokes with those in the office who came to take advantage of the situation. I had to admire her for her all-round intelligence.
How could those uneducated government officials take advantage of her? They were deceived by her in just a few words.
"Master Hou, I see that Madam Hu from the Western Regions is pretty and has a lot of affection for you. Why did she come to our Hou's Mansion?!"
Tieniu glanced at the yamen who was laughing and extending his hands in front of Rosanna and curled his lips in disdain. In his opinion, Rosanna should belong to his Marquis.
"Ha! I don't dare to want this kind of woman. If anyone gets involved with her, I'm afraid they will be sucked dry by her!"
Hey hey hey... Tieniu gave a mean smile. In his opinion, Ye An was talking about "that thing", but in fact, what Ye An was talking about was "this thing".
The money from several yamen quickly flowed into Rosanna's pocket, and then she left happily with the "kind words and persuasion" of Bayi and others.
It seems that they went home to get money, but they didn't know that Roxana had already started to pack things with others. Her goods were sold out the fastest, and she would naturally leave after the goods were sold out!
When the bullock cart passed by Luosanna's stall, a bare hand was placed on the window. Tieniu quickly stopped the car but was kicked by Ye An. He helplessly turned to look at the owner of the hand and said: "Miss Luo, in broad daylight, the world is bright. You
Are you planning to rob it openly?"
"Hey! Is the majestic Lord Yunzhong still worried about this little girl from the Nu family?"
"Hey! You are not a little girl, you are the princess of Gaochang Uighur! I don't dare to provoke you, Tieniu, why are you still standing there? Hey! Hey! Hey! What are you doing?!"
Before Tieniu could drive the cart, Roxana nimbly jumped onto the cart. Tieniu either stopped him or not, raised his hands in the air in embarrassment, and fat Bai Yi also sat on the cart.
, said to Tieniu with a Maitreya-like smile: "Brother Tieniu! This is the master's business, let's just drive the car, right?!"
Tieniu turned around and saw Ye An. When he saw him being forced into the car by Rosanna, he suddenly showed an expression of realization and said with a smile: "That makes sense!"
But in fact it was not what he thought. Ye An in the car leaned on the brocade couch like a scoundrel, tilting his head and squinting at the roof of the car: "No way, you want the butt door of my Puhui Department Store."
