Datang Longya

Chapter 563
Liangzhou City is located on a commercial road, which is considered a relatively developed area. There are endless carriages carrying goods on both sides of the main road in the city.

Seeing Leng Feng looking at the dry roads on both sides of the road in a daze, An Sheji said, "Forgive me, Mr. Xi, I should have cleared the streets when you came to Liangzhou. But Liangzhou is located on a commercial road, and there are a lot of goods coming and going. If the streets are cleared , I don’t know how many merchants’ trips will be delayed.”

It seems that this An Sheji is not a flattering figure.

Leng Feng shook his head: "It's nothing, let's go, don't continue to occupy the main road."

An Sheji was overjoyed, it seems that Duke Xi is as easy to talk as the rumors say, that's good, that's good.If you encounter an unreasonable inspector, you don't even know whether to do that.

The residence An Sheji arranged for Leng Feng was a separate courtyard of his family. The small courtyard was not particularly large, but the decoration was exquisite and elegant, and one could tell that it was carefully arranged by the owner.

"Duke Xi, you must be tired from the journey, how about taking a rest for half a day, and come to accompany you after the officials finish handling the government affairs?"

Leng Feng nodded: "Then Governor An can go to work, as long as he remembers to arrange board and lodging for our army."

After finishing speaking, Leng Feng threw a bag of silver to An Sheji.

Arranging food and accommodation for more than 1000 people will definitely cost a lot of money.This An Sheji doesn't look like a corrupt and cunning person, so there is no need to waste his little salary.

An Sheji took the purse, felt the weight of the purse, and said bitterly: "Since Chang'an, Duke Xi, it is the duty of an official to fulfill his friendship as a landlord. What are you doing?"

Li Tai couldn't help but interjected, "It's for you to arrange the expenses of the army, and the expenses of the few of us will still fall on you."

Such an arrangement seems reasonable.

People in the Tang Dynasty love face. If people from afar pay their own way, it would be very difficult for the receivers to lose their value.

Hearing what Li Tai said, An Sheji breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the best.

Looking at An Sheji who left, Leng Feng asked Li Chengqian: "What do you think of this person?"

Li Chengqian said: "This An Sheji is a good governor, honest but not pedantic, smooth but not treacherous, much better than purely corrupt officials and purely pedantic officials."

Leng Feng nodded. Li Yuanchang's Shiyi was consumed so quickly, he originally thought that he had nothing to do with the governor of Liangzhou, but now it seems that the suspicion of An Sheji is much less.

It is impossible to be tired from the journey, because the speed of the horse has not been improved to the extreme at all. Everyone is walking at the speed of walking the horse every day, so it is naturally impossible to feel too tired.

This other courtyard is equipped with many maids, servants, even cooks and housekeepers.After enjoying the local delicacies in Hanzhong, Leng Feng announced that he would take a rest, but in fact he summoned a businessman.

Hanzhong businessman Liu Chuang, who claims to be a descendant of Liu Bang, is considered to be a very influential person in the business circle. Before that, he was temporarily short of funds and had a loan from Shengshi Bank, so he knew Lao Yuan well.

Long before he came to Hanzhong, Lao Yuan sent him a letter asking him to help him investigate some things.

Looking at the bamboo tables and chairs in Leng Feng's room, Liu Chuang said with disdain: "This An Sheji is stingy, so you should be more generous in arranging your place. Duke Xi, why don't you come to my house."

Leng Feng was very helpless: "He is already very sincere in contributing his other courtyard, why should I be picky? By the way, how is your investigation of the matter that the old man ordered you to investigate?"

Liu Chuang took out a stack of papers from his pocket, put it in front of Leng Feng and said, "After checking for a long time, Hanwang's consumption for a year is here."

Leng Feng picked up the paper and looked at it, and suddenly felt dizzy.

Although businessmen are now adopting forms to keep accounts, but a lot of piecemeal data makes him seem to have a headache.

Putting down the paper, Leng Feng asked Liu Chuang directly: "Did you see anything?"

Liu Chuang nodded, took out a piece of paper and said: "Everything else is normal, except for supplements and women. How vain is this Hanwang, who keeps buying Korean ginseng? This Hanwang must be supplemented." To what extent do you actually need more than a dozen women a day? How beautiful are the women in the brothel, and it costs such an expensive price to spend a day with the King of Han?"

The behavior of wanton squandering, if the squandering is too vigorous, will also attract suspicion.

Li Yuanchang had a lot of places to eat, and at Li Yuan's request, Li Shimin could only give his brother a very high treatment. In addition, he often went to the palace to fight the autumn breeze, so it was not difficult for him to save those family fortunes in the dungeon.

Plus.
Leng Feng looked at the words "Korea" on the paper and fell into deep thought.

Datang has successfully forced Yuan Gai Suwen to rebel against him. Will that guy plot against Datang?If it's really him, it's not surprising that he can give Li Yuanchang some support.

If this is really the case, this Li Yuanchang really would not be a pity to die!
Liu Chuang saw that Duke Lu was lost in thought, so he tiptoed out of the study.

It wasn't until dusk that Leng Feng was awakened from his meditation by Li Chengqian.

An Sheji came to call them to the banquet.

It is estimated that Li Yuanchang will also attend this banquet. Leng Feng is still very curious about this sinister guy.

"Chengqian, the three of you don't want to attend the banquet tonight."

"Master, don't we need to attend?"

Li Ke was very curious, why didn't Master take them with him?

Li Tai patted Li Ke on the shoulder: "Third brother, you are so stupid, I think Li Yuanchang will also be there tonight, when the time comes, do you guys want to greet him?"

In any case, Li Yuanchang is the elder of the three of them. When they saw Li Yuanchang, they had to greet him no matter what, otherwise it would be a breach of filial piety.

Although filial piety is stipulated in this way, but the three of them, one crown prince and two princes, want to greet a useless vassal king, do they still need to be ashamed?
Speaking of this Li Yuanchang is also very embarrassing, although he is Li Shimin's half brother, but he is not as good as Li Xiaogong.Although he has the title of a prince, none of the people in the court know that he is relying on Li Yuan's blood to eat and wait for death.

Li Ke just nodded. Now it seems that the three of them are really not suitable to attend.

Taking Li Erniu, Er Gouzi, and the most talkative Wan Zhu, Leng Feng and the others rode to the lake.

I don't know what An Sheji was thinking, but he actually arranged the banquet on a cruise ship on the lake.

Boating on the lake is a taboo place for drinking, because drunk people can easily fall into the water without guards.

It stands to reason that An Sheji shouldn't have thought of this.
Arriving at the lake, looking at the so-called "cruise boat" in front of him, Leng Feng finally understood why he arranged it like this
