Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 114
Seeing someone salute, Liu Mu raised his hand in return.

"I just arrived too." Liu Mu pointed at that person: "Who is that?"

"Liu Renshi, the son of General You Xiaowei, is acquainted with us. If he is disrespectful in front of his uncle, my nephew will plead guilty on his behalf." It was Yuchi Baolin who spoke.

After coming to Datang, Liu Mu knew that many rumors of later generations were not true.

Yuchigong didn't have two wives, black and white, and there was only one real wife, who was pregnant when Yuchigong left home to join the army. According to the current official history of the Tang Dynasty, there are also cases where Yuchigong and his son fought and recognized each other, and Yuchigong sent his wife to commit suicide and keep the festival. Record.

So Yuchi Baolin is the eldest son recorded by the government.

Yuchi Gong is now nearly 40 years old, and Liu Mu is a brother. Liu Mu is seventeen this year, and Yu Chi Baolin is 20 years old, but he still respectfully calls Liu Mu an uncle.

The rest are Cheng Chusi, Chu Liang, and Chu Bi from the Cheng family, as well as Yuchi Baolin's younger brother Bao Qing.The one who beat him was Chu Liang, who was about the same age as Liu Renshi.

All of them arrived in front of Liu Mu, and Liu Renshi hurried over to plead guilty.

Liu Mu said a few words politely, the entourage and servants brought by Yuchi Baolin and others arrived now, a group of hundreds of people entered the West Market in a mighty manner, ordinary guests all avoided.

Officials are not allowed to enter the market, and nobles are cautious about entering.

In Xishi, few nobles sent servants here, and Liu Renshi only came after hearing Cheng Chusi's call.

Liu Mu is still a citizen, he is not afraid, because he is not an official.

The rest of the people were also sons of middle-ranking aristocrats, led by Liu Mu, they also wanted to watch the fun together, and no one with an official position was allowed to enter the market.

As for the West Market, which claims to have goods from all over the world, out of curiosity, they also wanted to follow along.

Unbeknownst to him, Liu Mu came to West Market only to buy one thing.

At this time in the Tang Dynasty, there are various names for this thing, some are called white velvet flower, some are called flower flower, etc. It is a kind of ornamental plant, and the number is not large.

Liu Mu traveled more than half of the West Market before finding the plant in his memory in a flower shop.

There is only one plant, which was placed indoors by the florist. Fortunately, because of the willow charcoal stove, this plant did not die in winter.

"Store." Liu Mu asked.

The shopkeeper and his partner hurriedly came to Liu Mu and lowered his head to wait for the inquiry.

"What does this thing look like when it blooms?"

"If you come back to my lord, the flowers are as big as a fist, and the white wool-like fluff is very beautiful." The shopkeeper replied respectfully.

Liu Mu nodded and asked again: "So, how many do you have?"

"If you go back to Mr. Lang, there is only one plant."

"How many seeds are there?" Liu Mu said to Zhu Yi after asking: "Arrange someone to ask the store to help you buy seeds all over Chang'an and even the surrounding area, as much as you want. Buying enough seeds for two hundred catties counts as your contribution. Enough for a thousand catties, I will reward you with a piece of silver."

"Thank you, sir." Zhu Yi immediately stepped forward to reply.

Liu Mu said to the shopkeeper: "Please help the store, you won't lose your profits. I want as much as you have within ten days." After Liu Mu finished speaking, he put a gold leaf on the counter, then turned and left.

A piece of gold leaf, I have seen quite a few merchants in Dongshi.

The merchants in the West Market have seen the copper coins of the carriage, but they may not have seen the gold leaves, because most of them are in the common people's business.

The young masters didn't ask any more questions.

After leaving the West Market, Yuchi Baolin asked, "Uncle, do you think that flower is a treasure?"

"En, Chongbao. Let's go, I invite you to drink." Liu Mu took everyone to Wenyue Pavilion. At this time, the place was full of people, all nobles, but the three private rooms on the top were empty, and there were ordinary nobles. I dare not ask for a room.

The one in the middle, no one dares to ask, is the private room reserved for the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

When everyone came back, the performers on the stage were still Tang-style singing and dancing, but this is the courtyard where the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty visited, so their status is naturally multiplied.

"Everyone, please watch the wonderful show today." After Liu Mu finished speaking with a smile, he made arrangements for the stewards in the building.

"Wonderful that no one has ever seen?" Someone asked next to him.

Liu Mu replied proudly: "Of course." After answering, Liu Mu turned his head and quickly saluted: "Are you always resting today?"

It was Peng Hai who had just arrived.

"The sage gave Zajia a holiday today, and Zajia specially came here to taste six kinds of pigs. What do you say is special."

"Of course." After Liu Mu replied, he invited everyone to enter.

Yuchi Baolin and the others ran away, they were not used to getting along with this great eunuch in the palace, so they found a place on the second floor where they were familiar with the noble son of Chang'an.

Liu Mu placed a small table at the turn of the stairs between the first floor and the second floor, separated by a screen, and he and Peng Hai sat here.

Peng Hai has a special status, and the nobles in Chang'an will not greet him in public.

The performance on the stage stops, the stage clears, and then someone starts to lift some props, and the scenery comes on stage.

The food and drink in front of Peng Hai had already been served, and Peng Hai was very fond of pig ears.

Two men and a woman on the stage started to talk a little bit. The audience heard that it was interesting, so they stopped talking and laughing ashamedly.

Just a few minutes later, Peng Hai, who was sitting opposite Liu Mu, spit out all the wine in one gulp, but saw that Liu Mu had prepared a large cloth towel in advance, and had already lifted it up to block himself, and the sip of wine did not stick to it On Willow.

Peng Hai couldn't care about Liu Mu, staring at the stage and smiling so hard that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

The first floor was also full of laughter.

"Selling Abductions," though vulgar, is a lot of fun.Liumu's plagiarism, coupled with Tang-style adaptation, made countless people laugh.

Peng Hai laughed out of breath, and after the curtain call, Peng Hai realized that Liu Mu just used a cloth towel to block the wine he spouted.He smiled and asked: "You seem to have known that Zajia would spit out wine."

"You are not the first to spray, and I believe you will definitely not be the last." Liu Mu said very flatly.

Liu Mu was not surprised by such an effect. The entertainment industry in the early Tang Dynasty had not yet started, and modern people who had seen countless entertainments in later generations would laugh, so it was no problem in Tang Dynasty.

When Jinya Qilang came to the stage, he saw countless copper coins raining down on him.

"The villain hasn't said a word yet?"

"This is for the reward." Someone shouted.

Peng Hai took out a small silver ingot and put it on the table: "This is a reward from the miscellaneous family. During the curtain call, the audience forgot to tip the reward. This is the first time in Chang'an, Gao Ming."

"Please listen to the next paragraph."

Jinya Qilang hugged his head from the copper coins, but he couldn't hide. This is a reward, and the copper coins are like rain. This is the highest honor for them, so even if they are smashed to death, he will not hide.

The copper coins all over the floor on the stage were not cleared away, so Jinya Shichiro patted the ring wood on the table lightly, and shook the folding fan.
