Chapter 023 Du Fuzi, drinking flower wine

Li Zaixing fisted with one hand and tofu with the other hand, and used both kindness and power, coaxed and scared, forcing the monks to start their daily training. He ran around the garden for ten laps, but it seemed not far away, and it was not the case that he actually ran. After running three laps, half of the monks became tired and showed fear of difficulties.

At this time, Li Zaixing began to run. He shook his arms and took big steps, and took out the energy of cross-country for five kilometers in his previous life and ran all the way. By the time the monks ran to the fifth lap, he had already rushed up.

When he passed by the monks, he said nothing, but just looked at him with contempt, then took big steps and continued to run.

All the monks were stunned. Take revenge? The strength is not a little bit worse.

By the time the fastest monk finished eight laps, Li Zaixing had already completed ten laps. He said to Zhiyuan: "Look for me. If you don't finish ten laps, you won't even give them water. Whoever dares to rob will break his leg and kill him. I will be responsible."

"Oh." Zhiyuan responded proudly, picked up a wooden stick, and stared at the unlucky monks. Behind him, there were several slaughter monks sent by the deacon Wuneng, who were big and round waists and greasy on their faces. He knew at a glance that he had stolen a lot of good things.

Li Zaixing showed his strength, returned to the west courtyard, took off his wet clothes and threw them to Ashin, fed two buckets of water in the yard, rinsed them, changed into clean clothes, and came to find Du Fu.

Yang was cutting fabric under the window and preparing to make clothes. Du Zongwen surrounded Yang and touched the silk fabric from time to time, his eyes were very excited. Seeing Li Zaixing come in, Yang wanted to get up and salute, Li Zaixing quickly waved his hand: "I'll look for Brother Du, sister-in-law, don't worry about me, you're busy with yours."

Yang smiled and said, "He is writing an article. Zong Wen, go and cook a pot of tea for Uncle A and get some snacks."

The Tang people did not just drink tea, but also had to serve various snacks. Du Fu was so poor that he could only go to the temple to give tea, so of course he couldn't pay attention to it. The situation is different now. He bought a lot of snacks and fruits in the West Temple in the morning, and Yang could finally buy a decent tea ceremony.

Seeing that he had the opportunity to eat snacks, Du Zongwen responded happily and jumped to prepare. Li Zaixing turned around and entered Du Fu's bedroom. Du Fu was twisting his beard in front of the desk and pondering, with a pen and ink on the desk and a draft of half a piece of paper.

"Brother, you are here just in time. Please help me read this essay."

Li Zaixing's black thread on his forehead, stop teasing, I'll show you the article? It would be great if I could recognize all these words. He coughed dryly: "Brother Du, why don't you read it to me?"

Du Fu did not refuse, picked up the manuscript, shaking his head and reading it. Without listening to a few sentences, Li Zaixing waved his hand and stopped.

Du Fu was a little disappointed: "What, my good brother thinks it's inappropriate?"

Li Zaixing thought for a moment and said carefully: "Brother Du is opposing the emperor's use of troops to the frontier?"

"Of course." Du Fu was righteous and indignant. "The emperor valued border merit, and those Hu generals fought for merit and favor, regardless of the lives and death of the soldiers. Gao Xianzhi made great moves in Anxi, and Geshuhan attacked Shibao City in Hexi last year, and lost more than 10,000 soldiers for an isolated city. An Lushan sought credit and repeatedly attacked the Khitan, killing countless deaths and injuries..."

The more Li Zaixing listened, the less uncomfortable he felt. How could the three heavy generals guarding the border be all Hu? Taizu said it well, the power came from the gun, and why were the heavy soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in the hands of Hu?

After hearing Li Zaixing's question, Du Fu sighed: "Originally, I did not use Hu people as border generals in the Tang Dynasty. People like Ashinasheer, Qibirhe Li and others made great contributions, and they could not be the generals. Those who truly held military power were Han people. They were all Li Linfu's dictatorship. In order to prevent the border generals from becoming prime minister, they appointed Hu people as generals. Over the years, elite troops have gathered on the frontiers, with the outside emphasis on the inside, the branches are strong and the dryness is weak, and the situation is in danger. If this situation is not reversed, I am worried that it will cause trouble to Xiao Yun and cause trouble to the confidant."

Li Zaixing nodded, but did not fully agree with Du Fu's opinion. Du Fu was right. Heavy troops gathered in the hands of the Hu people, which is indeed not good for national security, but this is different from giving up the border. Without strong national defense, how could there be a stable social environment?

He pondered for a moment: "Brother Du, do you think your gift will be effective?"

Du Fu's face turned dark and hesitated for a moment: "Although it may not be effective, it would be considered a pleasure to remind Your Majesty."

"This is what Du Fu is wrong." Li Zaixing said bluntly: "You only care about your own peace of mind, but don't ask whether you can accomplish anything. This is not the idea that responsible people should have."

"What should I do if my brother thinks?"

"You have to think about how to get Your Majesty to adopt your suggestions, rather than being content with your heart." Li Zaixing stood up and walked back and forth in the room. Du Zongwen walked in with a tea tray and snacks, placed them on the table, then held his chin, squatted aside, waiting eagerly. Li Zaixing picked up a piece of snacks and stuffed them into Du Zongwen's mouth, and continued, "So, you have to give your preferences, say something he is willing to listen to, and then mix your thoughts in it, so that Your Majesty feels that you are right and accept it happily."

Du Fu lowered his face and looked unhappy: "Did you advise me to be a slander?"

"Of course not." Li Zaixing smiled bitterly: "How could I persuade Brother Du to be a slander? I just suggest that Brother Du change his statement and improve his success rate."

"If you make suggestions, be frank. How can you invite favor with me? In this way, what is the difference between me and those slanderous ministers?"

"Otherwise." Li Zaixing shook his head patiently: "The slanderous ministers are asking for favors for their own selfish interests. Brother Du said it more tactfully, to give advice and benefit the world. The methods may be similar, but the goals are different..."

Du Fu interrupted Li Zaixing and said firmly: "Then I can't do anything to degenerate myself."

Li Zaixing was speechless. This old master is not ordinary pedantic. No wonder he has never been able to become a high-ranking official in his life. He immediately ended the argument: "Brother Du, I know nothing about writing poetry and essays. Don't take it seriously. It's getting late, so should we set off?"

When Du Fu heard about drinking wine, his mood immediately became higher. He kept saying, "That's right, we should set off. It's too late and we have to spend money in vain." He shouted outside the house, "Madam, where is my new clothes?"

Yang walked in, handed the new clothes to Du Fu, served Du Fu to put them on, carefully smoothed the corners of his clothes, and finally said lightly: "Husband, I think Brother Zaixing is reasonable. If Prime Minister Zhuge did not tolerate and seek progress, how could he be famous in the universe?"

Du Fu glanced at her: "What do you know about a woman? If a gentleman is a slander and seeks progress, will the Hongnong Yang family have the reputation they are today?"

Yang sighed and turned and went out. Du Fu shuffled his new clothes on his body, his eyes brightly: "My brother, let's go."

...

Although there were not a few steps, Du Fu still asked Li Zaixing to ride a horse, and Lu Hu and A Duan had to lead the horse and put it in full swing. If it weren't for El Maddy's leg injury, he would even suggest that Li Zaixing bring her with her. Although this Ugly man was tall and big, he was not delicate at all, but had beautiful blonde hair, which was enough to attract attention. What's even more exaggerated is that she was well-versed in martial arts. If she stood behind her with two scimitars, it would be very cool.

When it comes to matters related to drinking flower wine, Du Fu is not only not pedantic, but also very romantic. The change is too fast, so Li Zaixing cannot adapt to his changes.

"My brother, this prostitute has rules. He drinks wine every time normally, but only about 800 quotas, but only a thousand quotas. But if he goes by himself, he will see that you are a new face, he will be twice as much." Du Fu stroked his beard and said proudly: "But, I have been to several families before, and of course they dare not bully him as a newcomer."

Li Zaixing couldn't help but want to laugh, thinking that I was going to fight and cause trouble, so I didn't care about spending more money. I didn't plan to spend money at all, and I wanted to grab two more.

"Brother Du, which houses do Rangers who often appear in Pingkangfang go to?"

"This is going to be divided." Du Fu looked like an old horse knew the way: "I told you that the goblins in the capital were divided into two categories. One was the children of wealthy families. They were rich and powerful and spent a lot of money. The ones they often went to were Nanli and Zhongli, and the other was the goblins. Most of them were rogue boys, but they were tyrants and had to go to Beili to hang out. Those who often appeared in Pingkangfang and would go to Bodhi Temple to cause trouble. Of course, they were the goblins with low status. If you want to find them, you should go to Beili."

"Brother Du is familiar with the prostitutes in Beili?"

"I'm not very familiar with it." Du Fu was a little satisfied: "I was a little embarrassed after my father passed away, but when my father was alive, I was a little rich. I often went to famous prostitutes like Nanqu, Zhongqu, and Mingkeli Li's family."

"Which house is the most famous villain in this area often?

"The Li Xuanzhen family in Beili is at most Zheng Juji's family who goes to Zhongqu."

"Then let's go to Zheng Ju and his family first."

Du Fu hesitated for a moment, and said nothing, leading Li Zaixing all the way forward. As soon as they passed the cross street in the center of the yard, there were more pedestrians on the road, including bright clothes and angry horses, brocade hats and sable fur. None of them were full of spring breeze and were full of energy. Even the grooms who followed were dressed better than ordinary people. There were many horses in front of each house, and from time to time, they heard people boasting.

However, along the way, no horse could compare with Li Zaixing's Teller Piao. As soon as Li Zaixing appeared, he attracted countless gazes. Not only did he hand over some eyes at the prostitute who was welcoming guests at the door, but even the eyes of the boys in brocade clothes showed a little envy.

Li Zaixing passed by, glanced at the crowd, and saw an acquaintance. He raised his hand and shouted loudly: "Wei Sanlang, are you okay?"
