Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 343 Straight Steel Man's Straight Man Performance

Zhao Ji's title also changed from official to emperor.

On this point, Li Shishi is very careful.

Li Shishi changed his name after Zhao Ji stopped calling him a widow.

She is willing to do well what Zhao Huan told her.

She tried her best to make Zhao Ji have no ambitions. As long as Zhao Ji is still alive, her position will always be stable.

Li Shishi is naturally unwilling to go back to Jiaofang. Such a life is not a life for human beings, but she can get to today step by step.

Relying on Li Gang's support, and more because of her constant and cautious work, can she get to the present in a stable way.

"These paintings have just been painted and stamped. Let me take a look." Zhao Ji said with a smile.

And Li Shishi walked to the front, looked at the painting, pretended to be surprised and said: "It's really beautiful."

"I'm afraid that the flowers will fall asleep late at night, and the red makeup will be illuminated by high-burning silver candles. This painting by the official family is at its peak." Li Shishi said with a smile.

In all honesty, this painting did meet the requirements of a famous ancient painting.

The hazy mist, accompanied by the goose yellow moonlight, sprinkled in front of the dark short pavilion and corridor, and the blossoming crabapple flowers, like rouge, lying drunk in the green sand, attracted the servants and the owner of the house gaze.

Begonia flowers under the candlelight and moonlight, plus the owner of the house, leaning on the railing, looking at the thousands of beauties that look like fairy, and the figures in the sea of ​​flowers, I am intoxicated.

"This is you, this is someone." Zhao Ji said to Li Shishi with a smile.

This painting, he painted himself and Li Shishi.

"Concubine, I'm flattered." Upon hearing this, Li Shishi hurriedly said.

She is just a famous prostitute, and Zhao Ji treats her like this at this time, which makes her feel very grateful.

Of course, if there were no hands walking on her body, perhaps Li Shishi would have been completely moved by now.

But Zhao Ji was actually talking about love while making hands up and down, which was especially excessive.

After Li Shishi returned to the palace, she never let Zhao Ji touch her again. She was protecting herself. If she became pregnant, she would have to die.

The current emperor will never allow a new prince to be born.

Therefore, Li Shishi carefully and cleverly avoided all opportunities that might be obtained by Zhao Ji, but this time, Li Shishi was appreciating the painting, and Zhao Ji caught the opportunity.

"My lord, it's time for you to take your medicine." Li Shishi said with a smile.

This is the only magic weapon. If Zhao Ji chooses the prescription, he will abstain from sexual intercourse for three months.

The imperial physicians of the Imperial Hospital gave such orders, and every time Zhao Ji wanted to do something, Li Shishi had to use this reason to shirk.

She has already thought of a wonderful way to avoid Zhao Ji, and when the painting and calligraphy exhibition is held, it will be her chance to do so.

At that time, Li Shishi is confident that he will not be harassed by Zhao Ji again.

"Your Majesty, take a break, and the concubine has arranged a new dance, but please appreciate it." Li Shishi turned around without holding back, and left Zhao Ji's side. The music played and the dance was gorgeous.

"Two poems with a glass of turbid wine, drunk together with yellow flowers on the small threshold. Drunk in the afternoon, red in the evening, and no one rolls the curtain at dusk. You must sit with a thousand kinds of wine and pour thousands of books in your chest." Li Shishi sang leisurely .

Zhao Ji had an idea, patted the table and beat the beat and said loudly: "The eyebrows of the distant mountains are long, and the waist of the willows is thin. After makeup, there is a spring breeze, and a smile is less than a thousand dollars. When returning to Fengcheng, he said Yuhualoudao, and looked at Yingchuan flowers all over the place. , not as good as a teacher."

"Official praise." Li Shishi half covered his face with a silk scarf in his hand, blushing.

Undoubtedly, Zhao Ji is a romantic and talented man, he can write poems as soon as he opens his mouth, and he is excellent in calligraphy, poetry and painting. Another woman might have surrendered to Zhao Ji's literary talent and flair.

But who is Master Li?The woman who came out of the teaching workshop, what kind of man have you never seen?

How did the former martial artist Wailang Jiayi leave the capital?Isn't it just that the man in front of him sent him to Qiongzhou to join the army and never returned to the court?
Li Shishi was extremely helpless at the beginning, and had no ability to resist Jia Yi's demotion, and had no other way except to wash his face with tears all day long.

But now Li Shishi has become Zhao Ji's only support, so he has to sigh with emotion, good fortune tricks others.

Although the status is very different, she can't do anything to Zhao Ji, and she even has to protect Zhao Ji carefully to prevent any accidents from happening to Zhao Ji, but she is fully confident that she can't let Zhao Ji touch her.

"Okay! Shishi's dancing posture is the best in the world. Reward! Good!" Zhao Ji's face was full of embarrassment after shouting.

He suddenly found that he had no money in his hands and could not reward anything.

The rewards are all Li Shishi's low-key favors, which he begged from the emperor. After discovering this, Zhao Ji was a little depressed.

But as soon as he lowered his head, he saw the calligraphy and painting on the table, and asked someone to take a pen and ink, write the poem he had just improvised, and wrote it on the scroll.

"Picture of a Beauty Leaning on a Railing and Watching the Moon" became it.

"Miss Shishi feels aggrieved by following someone, this painting will be rewarded to Shishi."

"When I was alive, the painting was definitely not worth much, but if I died someday, this painting would be much more valuable. Master, keep it well, and it can be used as an heirloom."

Zhao Ji praised his wit, and Li Shishi also bowed down to thank him.

What Zhao Ji said was right, because Zhao Ji, the emperor, did a poor job and made the people all over the world full of resentment.

But people are always forgetful. When the new life constantly washes people's memories, and people's scars heal, they will forget Zhao Ji's crimes on the throne.

At that time, Zhao Ji's own calligraphy and painting, it is conceivable that its price will skyrocket.

The painting and calligraphy exhibition was officially opened in the restaurant outside Donghuamen under Li Shishi's help.

Zhao Huan even vacated a building from his shop outside Donghua Gate to show his benevolence and righteousness.

The effect was very good. When Zhao Ji showed up on the third floor, there was a sea of ​​people talking, all praising the current officials for their benevolence and righteousness.

Zhao Huan gained a wave of prestige.

Li Shishi presided over the whole situation in public, sang a few long and short sentences with a light voice, there were beauties dancing, and gifted scholars and beauties recited poems against each other, which was well received by the people of Bianjing.

Of course, it's free for the first day, and after the second day, all [-] Wens will be charged to the building for viewing.

Of course not only that, there are also tea parties, poetry parties, etc. Li Shishi is good at management, and it is difficult for this calligraphy and painting workshop not to make money.

For example, Zhao Huan knew that this painting and calligraphy workshop cost [-] yuan just for the entry fee.

Getting started here is not as simple as simply viewing and viewing paintings.

There are also famous painting appreciation, as well as activities such as auction of calligraphy and painting.It is very high-end, and the threshold is extremely high.

People in the Song Dynasty loved wine, and Li Qingzhao often remembered that the sunset at the brook pavilion was passed down to the world. If a woman loves wine so much, it can be seen how much the people in Song Dynasty love wine.

This calligraphy and painting workshop was named Guanlan Pavilion, and it opened auspiciously. Li Shishi, who received a lot of entry fees, naturally had to drink and have fun.

Li Gang stayed at the banquet in the Shangshan Building very uncomfortable, and he couldn't go with these celebrities and elegant guests.

He is a man of business and he is a prime minister, but he does not form cliques or engage in personal interests.

It is even more impossible to get together with these celebrities and refined guests.

In fact, he is not very popular in the court. Everyone respects him on weekdays, and most of them are the power given to him by the emperor, so people have to bow their heads to him.

Gangzheng is a word that has nothing to do with celebrities and elegant guests. At least at this banquet where the poems were recited against each other, Li Gang looked around uncomfortably and wanted to leave.

Dazaifu still has a lot of official documents to review, and Li Gang has not discussed with the officials how to reply to the letter that Zong Ze from Jinghu North Road handed over today.

The two roads in Sichuan and Central have already started the turbulent Juntian, and the voices of opposition keep coming and going.

Hu Shi will ask for more radical means to deal with opponents.

Li Gang felt that it was already very strict for people to be arrested and escorted to Beijing.He had already seen that Hu Shijiang meant to kill someone.

This matter has to be discussed with the officials before making a decision.

The Juntian on Hedong Road and Guanzhong has been completed, Li Gang wants to persuade the officials to bring Sun Bo and He Li back to Beijing, and now Yanjing Road needs someone to take charge of the overall situation.

These are the important matters that Li Gang has to deal with today, and there are more other trivial matters.

Just when he was about to sneak away, Li Shishi sat next to Li Gang with a smile, and said: "Li Dazai Antai, my concubine respects Li Dazai."

"Ah! Li Dazai, are you leaving now?"

Li Shishi's expression was extremely surprised, his eyes were whirling, and he looked like he was about to cry. With a little crying, he said weakly: "Did Li Dazai see the little girl coming here on purpose?" ?”

"No, no." Li Gang panicked.

He doesn't like shopping in brothels, to be exact, he has no money to visit brothels.

Except for the household, all his previous salary was supplemented by the Military Weapons Supervision, and the production of the workshop was resumed, but it cost a lot of money.

At that time, the court situation was dim, and there was no money for him to handle the military affairs.

That is to say, in the past few months as Dazai, his salary has risen to [-] yuan a month.

Li Gang has just become rich, but he is too busy to visit brothels.

He doesn't like it either.

Therefore, another reason why Li Gang can't get along with celebrities and elegant guests is that he is not good at talking flirtatiously, and he really doesn't know much about flirting with women in brothels.

"Miss misunderstood." Li Gang said hastily.He didn't have many tricks to deal with such courtesans.

Li Shishi smiled and said, "That's good, that's good. Give Li Dazai a cup."

Li Gang had to drink Li Shishi's wine.

Li Shishi was an important reliance for Li Gang to lure Zhao Ji back to Beijing, and even many ancient paintings came from the internal funds of Bianjing officials.

The reason why Zhao Ji spent money so quickly in Jiangnan was that most of the money went to the treasury.

That would have been treasury money.

Li Gang used Li Shishi as a medium, used ancient paintings, and made several turnovers, and cheated a lot of the money Zhao Ji took away to return to Beijing.

And the money was finally returned to the state treasury, and the officials took back the paintings that had been raised from within, from Tong Guan.

There is nothing lost in these paintings, but there are more chapters and inscriptions written by Zhao Ji.

At this time Li Shishi toasted, Li Gang had to drink it, and if he didn't drink it himself, it would be contemptuous, like crossing the river and tearing down the bridge.

He picked up his glass and drank it down.

After drinking for three rounds and eating five flavors, Li Gang said with a smile: "It's getting late, so I'm going back home."

"Then invite Dazai to drink this last glass." Li Shishi smiled cleverly and poured a glass of wine for Li Gang, using a trick to put some powder in his hand into Li Gang's wine glass.

At this time, a personal officer hiding in the shadows is about to step forward.

These subordinate officials were sent by Zhao Huan to protect Li Gang's subordinate officials.

Li Shishi's quack tricks, using the blindness of sight to prescribe medicine, can hide Li Gang who is far away from the rivers and lakes.

But you can't hide it from the eyes of these pro-obedient officials!
However, the corporal leader who followed the officer personally held everyone back.He whispered, "Amberx."

All relatives and officials looked at each other, but Li Shishi was willing to spend all his money!

This is ambergris!
Ambergris is made from the condensed saliva of a giant dragon. It is ground into ingredients and is a precious medicinal material that has a miraculous effect on aphrodisiac!

And this holding of ambergris is worth thousands of gold.

"The safety of Dazai is not involved, so we must not act rashly." The corporal leader who was a close official shook his head and said in a low voice. In fact, he had already seen the purpose of Li Shishi's visit today.

Zhao Huan sent them to protect Li Gang, not to interfere with Li Gang's life, so he strictly ordered them not to be exposed easily, and not to affect Li Gang's daily life.

"Is it really ambergris?" A young and inexperienced official asked ignorantly.

The leader, Wuchang, the subordinate officer, patted the young subordinate officer and said, "You, it seems that you have never been to Fanlou."

"Have you smelled the fragrance? It's the smell of Xijiwan." The corporal officer said mysteriously.

Except for the young entourage officer, the other entourage officers showed an expression of understanding, a corporal leader is a corporal leader, and has a well-informed expression.

Only this young pro-obedient officer looked left and right with a ignorant face, hoping that colleagues could explain to him what Xijiwan is.

A close servant shook his head, and whispered something in his ear, which made the young close follower blush.

It turns out that this Xiji pill is ground into powder with dozens of medicinal materials such as musk kernels, Korean ginseng, cinnamon twigs, poria cocos, peach kernels, safflower, etc., and the pills are made with oil and pasted on the navel.

After using it, the complexion is delicate, the skin is like creamy fat, the skin is fragrant and sweet, youthful and not old, the breasts are full and firm, and the strange fragrance from the pills is easy to seduce people's hearts and make them irritated.

It is the real medicine for tigers and wolves used by the imperial court.

The corporal has seen this kind of pill in the palace, and he has also smelled this kind of fragrance.

As a personal official, Cha Zi of the Imperial City Division, how could he not even smell this smell?Therefore, when Li Shishi approached Li Gang, the corporal leader who was a close official knew the woman's purpose.

The former Li Shishi had a humble status and had only heard of Xijiwan, so how could he have the conditions to make it?
The precious medicinal materials are enough to make her bankrupt.

There is everything in the palace. When Li Shishi was asking for medicine for Zhao Ji, he also asked for a pair of Xijiwan medicinal materials, mixed it, and finally made this Xijiwan.

Of course, this Xiji Pill has been used too much, and if it is used for a long time, it may range from whether there will be any heirs, or it may be life-threatening.

She had never used such a strong medicine before, but in order to deal with Li Gang, she had gone all out today.

How could Li Gang be able to withstand the ambergris stimulant muscle pill?
Li Gang didn't care, he left in a hurry, drank the wine in the glass, and said with a smile: "Everyone have fun, one step ahead."

"Farewell to Li Dazai!" All the celebrities and poets said in unison.

But no one dared to offend the popular Dazai, Li Gang who was in charge of the government. When the sun was shining, no one dared to stop Li Gang from leaving.

"The concubine is sending Dazai off." Li Shishi still smiled sweetly and stood up and said.

Li Gang stood up and took two steps, his lower abdomen actually felt a fiery feeling, he took two more steps, he was a little dizzy, looking at Li Shishi's appearance, he felt a bit hazy and impulsive.

He reached out and grabbed Li Shishi's arm.

Li Shishi pushed open the door of the cabin in the building with a smile, and dragged Li Gang to fall into the room.

She had seen the official following Li Gang a long time ago, so she believed that she would never be disturbed!

It's a big deal!

Li Shishi showed a triumphant smile, closed the door, but the smile on his face stopped abruptly.

A pair of big hands like iron tongs grabbed Li Shishi's neck!

And the strength of these big hands made Li Shishi so hard he couldn't breathe!
Li Gang is very tall, and he also worked as a four-wall guard for a period of time, and even personally went to the workshop of the Military Weapons Supervisor, where he forged iron. The strength in Li Gang's hands is really great.

He is not a traditional scholar-bureaucrat who is powerless and useless.There is even a chance that he, Li Gang, can be a general and lead troops to the front.

A gentleman has six skills, but he didn't fail in everything.

"Say! Who sent you here! Is the Supreme Emperor wanting someone's life?!"

Li Gang's voice was very low, like a beast from the underworld, roaring in a low voice.

He was panting like a cow, his eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes and madness, and he said with bursting veins!

Fearing that the changes in the palace would reappear, at this moment, his eyes are full of murderous intent!
Ever since the official ascended the throne, he has already experienced Zhao Kai's stupid rush to the palace, and the incident of the eight sects entering the capital. At this moment, Li Gang has completely lost his usual warmth, but has become the Bian who killed him at the beginning. Li Gang, who is bleeding in Beijing!

Moreover, after three days in the black coffin, Li Gang had already keenly sensed that something was wrong with his spirit.

Obviously, Li Shishi's current behavior made the evil dragon in Li Gang's heart, which was constantly suppressed, roar suddenly.

And Li Shishi was so frightened by Li Gang's actions that his face turned pale!

Li Gang in this shadow is completely lacking in his usual elegance.

The crazy aura on Li Gang's body was telling Li Shishi that if something went wrong, it would be the consequence of his death on the spot!
"Too...zai...you...listen...to me..."
