Datang: Only by resisting the will can one become stronger

Chapter 185

As soon as he saw the samurai Tong coming to visit, the Emperor Li Yuan, who was still furious because of a trivial matter a moment ago, immediately seemed to be a different person.

I was in a good mood and greeted him personally.

Without waiting for the samurai to salute, he laughed and pulled the samurai's wrist.

"Alas, Zixin, you haven't come to me for at least a month, have you?"

Wu Shi Tong also smiled, "Emperor Taishang, don't you know that in this cold winter season, there is a leak of wind everywhere in this imperial city and palace.

"My ministry is full of people who come to urge every day.

"But I can't offend any of them. "

I was only recently separated, and then I came to see the Emperor Taishang as soon as I came!" As soon as he

saw Wu Shitong, Li Yuan's mood suddenly improved a lot.

"Let's go into the house and talk. "

And you, go to the palace, I have a guest here, and ask the imperial dining room to make more wine and food."

"If they dare to use those leftovers against me again this time, look at how I will sue you when that unfilial Li Er comes again!"

For his roar, the palace maids and eunuchs of Tai'an Palace were silent.

And the guards guarding the palace have all been selected layer by layer, and they have also turned a deaf ear and never heard it.

For this, the samurai Tong is also not surprised.

At this time, I saw him smile and say to Li Yuan: "Emperor Taishang, you don't need to send wine from the palace today." "

I've got you covered.

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows, "Oh, what kind of good thing?" "

I was really curious when you said that." "

Bring it up and I'll take a look!" As

he spoke, the eunuchs also brought up the twenty jars of wolf wine.

As soon as he saw this shooting wolf, Li Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

I was very happy to come up, and that look was like a child seeing his favorite toy.

Now he is confined in this Tai'an Palace, which is almost like squatting in prison.

If it were replaced by those common people, if they were placed in a palace, there would be eunuchs and palace maids waiting for them.

There are brocade clothes, jade food, and many beautiful concubines, so they must be happy.

But for Li Yuan, the former emperor of the Ninety-Five, this taste is too difficult.

"Zixin, could it be that these wines are all shooting wolfs

?" "This wine has reappeared?"

At this time, the samurai Tong explained to him with a smile.

"Emperor Taishang, I told you last time that the child who made this wine was named Li Qiu.

"Halfway through, because of some things, it was interrupted.

"Now he has settled down again, so the wine has reappeared.

"But, today's wine, to be exact, was not given to you by me.

"It's the two of them, Wu Jue and Li Qiu, who specially entrusted me to honor your little heart.

Subsequently, Wu Shi Tong also briefly talked about the matter between Li Qiu and Wu Jue.

Emperor Li Yuan, when he was the emperor, he was welcomed by courtiers everywhere.

He didn't think anything of the icing on the cake.

But now that he has fallen into this situation, he can better see the true feelings of a person who sends charcoal in the snow.

After listening to the stories of Wu Yu and Li Qiu, Li Yuan also sighed again and again.

"Alas, both of them are good boys!" "

I accepted their filial piety, and you thank them for me when I turn around."

"This time flies so fast.

"I remember the last time I saw Wu Jue's girl, she was still so young.

"I didn't expect to grow up now, to the point where I want to get married. "

Come, Zixin, you have to accompany me to drink some wine today, so that I can get drunk happily."

"Now, only in a drunken dream is the most comfortable thing..."

At noon, Li Yuan and Wu Shi Tong drank the shooting wolf cup by cup.

As for the so-called delicacies of the imperial dining room, I am afraid that it is not as good as the samurai Tong's own home.

During the banquet, Li Yuan was drinking while reminiscing about the past.

Samurai became a very good listener.

He also tried his best to help this emperor who was kind to him, his old friend for many years, to relieve the pressure in his heart.

As he spoke, Li Yuan sighed and didn't want to mention the previous things anymore.

Because since entering this Da'an Palace, he doesn't know how many times he has repeated these things in his heart and in his mouth.

Even he felt deeply tired of it.

"Zixin, tell me about the two children, Li Qiu and Wu Jue.

"I've heard you say a little bit before, and it's kind of funny.

Seeing Li Yuan's request, Wu Shi Tong also smiled, starting from the first time he took Wu Yu to Li Qiu's small restaurant to eat.

Then there is how Wu Jue developed feelings with Li Qiu, and the follow-up things.

And when he heard that Li Qiu led a hundred Shenwu troops to collide with the formation, beheaded five Turkic generals in a row, and finally seriously injured Jieli with a halberd and relieved the siege of Chang'an, Li Yuan slapped the table heavily.

shouted "Okay!",

and when he said that Li Qiu was squeezed out by the officials of the scholar clan above the court because of his status as a businessman, Li Yuan also snorted angrily.

"None of these scholars are good!"

"I was deceived by them back then, and I didn't feel anything.

"But now that I think about it now, I know more about their scum!" In

the end, when Wu Shi Tong finished talking about Li Qiu, Li Yuan hesitated for a long time, but still said his request.

"Zixin, there's something I want to ask you about.

"Alas..."

"If it's convenient, I really want to meet Wu Jue and Li Qiu's two children."

Today's Li Yuan is also clear about his situation.

An old friend like Samurai Tong, he also didn't want to drag him down because of himself.

Especially his children.

And after hearing his request, Takeshi Tong also felt embarrassed.

After a pause, he exhaled lightly and said, "Emperor Tai, I still have to go back and ask Li Qiu about this matter."

"He's also a county king, and there are some things that are hard to force. "

Come to the Emperor, let's continue to drink..."

...

Li Qiu, on the other side, was not idle.

He ordered the trustworthy family to bring the four hundred taels of gold to purchase grain and prepare to send it to Youzhou.

Now that the New Year is over, the luck has stopped.

In addition, the impact of this year's drought is emerging, and now the price of grain around Chang'an has also risen from 5 yuan to 50 yuan for rice.

It's a tenfold increase.

The lives of the people are getting harder and harder.

But that's the case, Li Qiu still has to buy rice and transport it to Youzhou, as much as he can, so that a few fewer people will starve to death there.

Anyway, in two months, the third batch of Sky Shooting Wolves should also be on the market.

At the same time, because of the New Year's Festival, he was a county king, plus a princess of Ake, and various food and rewards in the court were also sent down in a steady stream.

The abundance of materials made Li Qiu feel quite good.
