Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

"As long as you can make up your mind, third brother, there is nothing to worry about. I have already found the dead ghost."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.

Li Ke gritted his teeth, and put the seal representing the shopkeeper of the supermarket in Li Tai's hands stiffly.

"Is it reliable?"

Li Tai smiled even brighter.

"No one is more reliable than him."

Lord Yue let out a message, saying that he would go to the Western Regions with His Highness the King of Shu.

Because news came from the front line that a large amount of gold and silver needed to be escorted there, and the two princes were worried about escorting others.

As the news spread, the atmosphere in Chang'an City suddenly became much more relaxed.

The official residence of the three provinces!

After Fang Xuanling heard the news, he was silent for a long time.

He stared blankly at the two brothers standing in front of him, waiting to get the leave slip, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.

Supermarkets and Thai Kee are both related to the lifeline of Datang.

Naturally, these two big shopkeepers should also be included in the imperial court's establishment.

Li Ke, the shopkeeper of the supermarket, is under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu.

And Li Tai, the big treasurer of Taiji, replaced Qian Shi'an, who was once the commander of the Baiqi Division, and also replaced the Dushui Supervisor among the five supervisors.

Without the prime minister's instructions, they could not easily leave the city.

"Have you decided?"

Knowing that the two brothers had made up their minds, Fang Xuanling asked again.

As usual, it doesn't matter whether the two brothers go to the Western Regions or not.

But now at this stall, the emperor has gone, the prince has gone, more than half of the old commanders in the court have gone, and almost all the soldiers of Guanneidao have been dispatched.

If even the kings of Yue and Shu also went

Fang Xuanling couldn't imagine what would happen if this group of people were all lost in the Western Regions.

He looked to his side, Xiao Yu who was on duty today.

Xiao Yuzheng frowned, closed his eyes and meditated, not knowing what he was thinking.

Li Tai smiled and said, "President Fang, time waits for no one, so hurry up."

"Have the Empress and Concubine Yang agreed?"

As soon as Fang Xuanling finished speaking, she knew what she was talking about was nonsense.

Are the two empresses comparable to ordinary women?

They understand righteousness well and know that this is not the time to cherish their son's safety.

If Li Tai and Li Ke don't leave, the court situation will only become more chaotic!

If Li Tai and Li Ke were ignorant, and they were like cowards at this time, I am afraid that the two empresses would force their sons to leave Chang'an City!

Everything is for the sake of the overall situation!

Fang Xuanling let out a long sigh, and stamped his seal on the note.

After handing it to Li Tai, he said quietly: "You have to protect yourselves, once"

He didn't want to continue talking.

Sighing again, he stood up and sent the brothers away.

After returning, he glared at Xiao Yu and said, "Didn't you become dumb?!"

Xiao Yu opened his eyes, not angry at Fang Xuanling's responsibilities.

He said lightly, "I'm thinking, if there is a change in the war in the Western Regions, who in Chang'an City can come forward and preside over the overall situation?"

Fang Xuanling's gaze sank.

In fact, he has been thinking about this question.

For the imperial court, everything must be considered in the worst direction in order to be fully prepared.

If, including Li Er, all the royal families who went to the Western Regions really killed them as the leaders of the three provinces, they would need to immediately elect a royal family who could hold everyone down to preside over the overall situation.

This person is really hard to find.

Xiao Yu continued: "After His Majesty left, the empress has been supervising the country, but this is not a long-term solution. Now it seems that even if the army can return safely, it will be at least half a year later. The sooner the candidate is decided, the better." good"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xuanling seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "Wait!"

"how?"

Xiao Yu asked.

Fang Xuanling frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Do you feel that in the current situation, there is a feeling of déjà vu that will take everyone away, pretending to be empty inside, and let the enemy feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it?" Quite a bit, Liu Bai is good at using the technique of 'leading the snake out of the hole'"

Chapter 947 Why is there such an urgent need for money?

The next day!

Li Tai and Li Ke left the city with their personal guards in the palace and a large number of people from the Liu family's caravan.

This time, they not only carried a large amount of gold and silver, but also some necessary daily necessities and medicines.

There is no way to transport supplies from the Western Regions outside Chang'an City.

In order to fight this battle, Longyou Dao's resources were almost emptied.

Only Chang'an can meet the needs of Da Jun and Liu Bai.

Fang Xuanling and others sent Li Tai and Li Ke out of the city.

Waiting for the team to disappear, Fang Xuanling was still wondering which 'snake' Liu Bai was going to draw out.

It stands to reason that Datang is wholeheartedly preparing for foreign wars, so there shouldn't be any unstable factors inside.

Think about it, the family is gone, the Chinese are poor, and the grandson Wuji is down.

Those under him, such as Chu Suiliang, were all placed in marginal positions, with nothing to do all day long and no power in their hands.

Who else will threaten the court?

Fang Xuanling thought hard, but did not come up with a result.

Judging from all the current signs, it looks too much like a game set up by Liu Bai.

"Who is it?"

When he returned to the mansion, Fang Xuanling was still full of question marks.

Sitting in the hall, someone made himself a cup of tea.

Just at this time, the eldest son Fang Yi went home from a business trip.

Recently, Fang Yizhi has been busier than his prime minister.

He belonged to the property department of Shierfang, and he climbed up to the sixth-rank official position at a young age.

When his old man was at this age, he was still in Brown State, working as a not-so-well-known little master bookkeeper.

He is very satisfied with this eldest son.

"came back?"

Fang Yi took off his robe, handed it to the old housekeeper, walked over and bowed.

"father!"

"What have you been up to lately? According to your mother, you haven't been home for five or six days."

Fang Yi sat straight down, staring straight at the teacup in Fang Xuanling's hand.

Fang Xuanling handed him the teacup, and asked someone to make another cup for himself.

Fang Yizhi finished his drink, wiped his mouth, and said: "Tomorrow, my child will go on a business trip, and it will probably take a month."

With that said, he took out the leave note that he had written.

He is also the official of the imperial court. Although the official is small, he only needs to go to the Ministry of Industry where the property department is affiliated, and ask Han Tong for leave, but it is more convenient to go home and ask his father for approval.

While Fang Xuanling was reading the note, Fang Yi said directly: "The construction on the Baqiao side has almost been completed, and the house there will be put on sale on the second floor of the Stock Affairs Bureau in a short time. Xiao Rui and the others plan to follow Bianji's engineering team to Weinan for investigation."

"Investigation?"

Fang Xuanling took out her own seal from her bosom, intending to cover it, but when she heard her son's words, she couldn't help being taken aback.

"Meng Da, the treasurer of the Liu family engineering team, said that after the construction of the northern residential area, the construction of Weinan will start immediately. It seems that the Liu family is short of money recently. In order to get the money back as soon as possible, even the northern residential area has planned promotional activities. The price of the house , It’s hard to drop by [-]%!”

Hearing this, Fang Xuanling frowned deeply.

He still vividly remembers the scene when Twelve Square opened for sale.

That's a lot of fun!

Among them, a silk merchant named Pang Chun bought the king of the house at a sky-high price of 600 million yuan.

The total value of the entire Twelve Squares will not be less than 6000 million guan!

The geographical conditions of the houses in the northern residential area are much better than those in Twelve Squares.

Especially in the area near the imperial palace, it is estimated that every house will not be cheaper than the king's house in Twelve Squares.

If the profit is fully [-]%, the Liu family said that they will lose nearly ten million yuan in profit!

The Liu family was already wealthy beyond compare.

Why is there such an urgent need for silver?

You don't need to think about it, it must be Liu Bai's idea.

Others do not have this power.

Why?

Fang Xuanling seemed to have grasped some kind of clue, but couldn't figure it out.

"Pay attention to safety on the road, bring a few more guards when you leave, and go to see your mother later, she has been arguing in my father's ear these days."

Saying that, he waved his hand and told Fang Yi to go straight to the backyard.

"Who is Liu Bai planning to trick?"

Fang Xuanling rested one hand on the table, tapping with his fingers.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the entire Tang Dynasty, there is no one worthy of Liu Bai's trap.

The emergence of supermarkets destroyed the original trading environment in one fell swoop, and seized more than [-]% of the market in all walks of life in Datang!

The nautical trade is booming, and fleets come back every month, and the profits cannot be underestimated.

Because of this, the Fang family made a lot of money.

Could it be that Liu Bai intends to trick the aliens?

Not right!

If it is a scam, why should all those who are qualified to compete for the throne be transferred away from the royal family?

I really can't figure it out.

Fang Xuanling couldn't sit still anymore, so he simply called a few servants to deliver letters to the old guys who were friendly with each other one by one, and the big guys discussed together, maybe they could guess Liu Bai's mind.

Jingyang County, Liuyexuan!

If we say that Chang'an is Datang's largest trade center.

Then Jingyang County is Datang's largest storage center.

The land price here is not much cheaper than in Chang'an, but with the Liu family's bonus, the common people can enjoy a good meal along with it.

The standard of Liu Yexuan is getting higher and higher.

It was originally open to ordinary businessmen, but now it has completely become a membership system.
