Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 392 Gifts

Sun Moon Lake, Li's House.

Ling Jingan, who had just returned to Zhuangzi from Tiance Mansion, sat there Ruosu, listening to Su Dingfang's description, there was still a trace of cold sarcasm on the corner of his mouth.

In addition to these two people present, there are also Zhu Wei with a worried face and Zhu Shi who is frowning.

"Ms. Zhu is at ease." Ling Jing persuaded with a smile: "Pei Shiju's second shot, the timing is right, it seems to ask Huairen for the crime, but it really makes him move away, but this matter... the saint knows, the crown prince, King Qin, Pingyang The princess knows."

"You know?" Zhu's brows were furrowed even tighter.

Zhu Wei at the side knew it well, and persuaded in a low voice: "Da Lang is out now, and he is keeping things secret..."

Ling Jing snorted, thinking that Li Shan is quite tight-lipped, and the matter of going out for business in Hedong is no longer a secret, but few people in Guanzhong know about it...but I didn't expect that even Mrs. Zhu didn't know about it.

After a pause, Ling Jing added: "It's just that after Liu Shirang's impeachment and Pei Shiju's indictment from the Palace of Liangyi, I'm afraid that Huairen's reputation will be damaged."

Zhu's attention was immediately diverted, and he slammed down the table, "Old thief!"

"Of course, it's also beneficial." Ling Jing turned back, "Firstly, it is beneficial to the country, and the saints should favor him. When he returns to Beijing in the future, there must be fans. Secondly,..."

Ling Jing glanced at Su Dingfang who felt a bit ashamed, "Princess Pingyang said that Huairen can rest easy in the future."

Mrs. Zhu was stunned, with a happy expression on her face. She has been with Princess Pingyang frequently in the past few months, and she already knows the weight of this woman.

Zhu Wei and Zhu Shi are easy to fool, but Su Dingfang...although he is not astute, but his understanding of Li Shan is higher than the former two, not only looked at Ling Jing suspiciously.

Ling Jing lost his eyes and went over... He and Su Dingfang both have the same understanding, even if Princess Pingyang is tough, or mediates, even if Pei Shiju and Li Dewu give up unwillingly, but Li Shan will let everything before Does the wind blow away?
It's impossible!

If it was just an open and secret fight between Li Dewu and Li Shan's father and son before, but the moment Pei Shiju pushed Li Shan into Yanmen, it meant that there was no room for maneuver between him and Li Shan.

Pei Shiju started the battle, but it's not up to him to decide when it will end!
Ling Jing had thought about these things a long time ago, even if Princess Pingyang came forward, Pei Shiju would not give up... Just think about it, how many years can Pei Shiju live?

Not to mention Pei Shiju, even Pei Ji is over [-] years old. If Li Shan can hold back his temper, after the two of them die, Wenxi, who has no outstanding children, can deal with Pei Ji, who is likely to have reached a high position that day. Li Shan?
The sage is very popular, the prince and the king of Qin are all attracted by Huairou, and Princess Pingyang is very supportive... This is also the main reason why Pei Shiju wants to push Li Shan down as soon as possible.

Zhu Wei thought for a while, then asked in a low voice: "Da Lang is at Yanmen Pass..."

"It must be all right." Ling Jing didn't mention Liu Shirang's possible surrender to the enemy, but only smiled: "The King of Huaiyang moved to Nao County, one day away from Yanmen Pass. General Xue Zhong of Zuo Weiwei led [-] soldiers to enter Yanmen Pass last year. It was Huairen who rescued him from the Turks."

While talking, Ling Jing was thinking in his heart, Li Shan was a man who could be ruthless at critical moments, if Liu Shirang made any changes, Li Shan would dare to behead him.

With the help of Kan Leng, Li Gaoqian, and Xue Zhongzhi, plus the fact that he has been kind to Dai County and Yanmen Pass several times, Li Shan should have no problem controlling Yanmen.

After repeatedly ensuring Li Shan's safety, Ling Jing talked about the matter of going out to Cyprus for trade.

"The news about Liangyi Hall has already spread, and there are quite a lot of discussions in Chang'an City." Ling Jing looked at Zhu Wei, "Has the food stored in Dongshan Temple been shipped?"

"We can leave tomorrow." Zhu Weichi questioned, "It's just that... Huairen set up a granary in Dongshan Temple back then, and it was not allowed to be used outside except for daily use."

"The first batch is almost two years old, and the grain and rice can't last long." Ling Jing shook his head, "The prominent family in the east of the river is stuck with the grain, so Huairen has to give in."

"Exchanging horses for food is indeed a clever strategy, but I'm afraid it won't work for a while."

"Send it over for a top first, and bring a batch of good horses by the way."

Before Li Shan took office, he had told Ling Jing to take care of all matters in the village, and Zhu Wei immediately nodded in response.

Ling Jing has thought about these things for a long time. Judging from Li Shan's letter, Yunzhou residents and grassland tribes have a lot of demand for salt, tea, even lacquerware and porcelain, but there are always stratifications, only Yuhuchun does not distinguish Class, men and women, old and young, poor and humble, rich and noble all love it.

Therefore, Yuhuchun has become the most smuggled commodity... Li Shanneng manipulated this trade route, on the one hand, because he acted as the county magistrate and stationed in Yanmen, and on the other hand, it was because of Yuhuchun.

Therefore, Li Shan can't let the noble family of Hedong get stuck in this hole... Just for the first batch of good horses, Li Shan filled all the water from Beishi before taking down all the cattle and horses carried by the Pei and Liu caravans. Most of the next batch of winery production should be sent out.

Su Dingfang was a little surprised, "Why send some good horses back?"

"Buying grain in Hedong can't be bypassed by the prominent families in Hedong. Could it be bypassed in other places?" Ling Jing snorted, "Li Kai, Wang Renbiao, Liu Xun, Fang Yizhi, Du He, Changsun Chong..."

Zhu Wei immediately understood that on the one hand, he wanted to open up relationships, and on the other hand, he wanted to maintain connections for Li Shan, but after thinking about it, he hesitated and said, "It seems that most of them are the children of Prince Qin's family?"

"Jingzhao Wei sent two horses, and Wei Xuancheng, uh..." Ling Jing paused, "Who else wants to send?"

Zhu Wei's expression changed slightly, and he said with a smile: "Prince Zhongyun Wang Shujie, who was born in the Wang family of Qi County, has praised Huairen several times..."

"Prince Zuo Shuzi, Zheng Shanguo, Duke of Xingyang County, appeased Shandong at the beginning of the year, and praised Huairen's contribution to planning Shandong after returning to the court."

Ling Jing nodded casually. Anyway, at least at this time, Li Shan couldn't and didn't want to be directly involved in the fight for the heir apparent. However, the old man also wondered what kind of connection Zhu Wei had with the East Palace, but it seemed that Huairen already had guessed.

Su Dingfang suddenly remembered something, and asked tentatively, "Cui Sheren..."

Su Ding didn't pay much attention to this aspect, he just remembered hearing someone mention that Zheng Shanguo's mother, Duke of Xingyang County, was from the Qinghe Cui family, and she was the cousin of Cui Xin, a member of Zhongshushe, and the two families were very close.

"No need to do that." Ling Jing stroked his beard and smiled, "Hui Ren has already made arrangements over there."

Hey, Li Shan has never given gifts to his father-in-law and mother-in-law in his previous life, so he has no experience. That's right, he was single before time travel... and Ling Jing didn't take this into consideration.

"I met that little lady Cui at Princess Pingyang's mansion the day before yesterday." Mrs. Zhu said suddenly, "I asked vaguely when Dalang will return to Beijing."

Zhu Wei smiled and said, "A masterpiece from Tianhe... But I remember that Miss Cui is only eleven or twelve years old."

Generally speaking, women in the Tang Dynasty were engaged between the ages of nine and 14, and there was still time to make love in the next year or the next.

Ling Jing shook his head slightly, "I heard someone mention that Cui Sheren praised Huai's benevolence and talent, but his wife, Mrs. Zhang, was quite dissatisfied."

"That's not necessarily the case." Zhu retorted: "That day Zhang made many inquiries..."

The other three couldn't help but grinned. As soon as the "Ai Lian Shuo" came out, even if Zhang didn't want it in every possible way, there was nothing he could do.

While talking, Mrs. Zhu thought that Mrs. Zhang liked the golden step that was sent that day, and she specifically mentioned that Da Lang sent it from Yanmen.

Generally speaking, step shakes are worn by women, and it is rare for ladies who have not left the cabinet to wear step shakes.
