The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 287
From the vanity point of view, it is indeed something that makes Li Muyun very proud to be favored by Princess Datang.

But after all, he is not a child of seven or eight years old. The thinking of an adult tells him that in this era of Tang Dynasty, if you want to live a better life, you must not rely on such things as vanity, and better reflect your own value. The foundation of the family's survival.

Although later generations have been talking about the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the rule of Zhenguan, those are all big situations.

When you are really in the Tang Dynasty, you will know that this is still a feudal construction society after all, and it is still a society where the emperor wants to chop off the head and move the house.

Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, in addition to the emperor, there were also noble families, gentry, and nobles. Even in later generations, the concept of class had not been completely eliminated, let alone in the era of the Tang Dynasty, when life was as cheap as grass.

Therefore, if Li Muyun really wants to live well in this world, he must reflect his own value. Only by reflecting his own value will he be recognized by the upper class. Live your own thoughts.

This is the survival experience of Tang Dynasty that Li Muyun summed up in more than a year!
"Mr. Li, we're here!" Just as Li Muyun was distracted thinking about his own affairs, the eunuch leading the way stopped and stood solemnly in front of the gate of a small house.

"So fast?" Li Muyun turned around in surprise and looked at the road, and it seemed that he could still see the palace wall from a distance: "Haven't you left the palace yet?"

"This is Chongrenfang. It is just across the street from the imperial palace, so it is convenient for His Majesty to summon you at any time." The eunuch explained the location of this house and the reason why Li Shimin placed someone here in as simple a way as possible.

Li Muyun nodded mechanically, now he wished that Li Shimin would never think of him again, and it would be better if there were fewer summons at any time, otherwise his head would be lost at any time.

After entering the house and walking around twice, I found that the house is indeed not very big, but it is not a problem for ten or eight people to live there.

Several maids and servants sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs have already arrived. At this time, half of the house has been cleaned, and some necessities for life have also been moved in one after another.

It's different when the emperor speaks. Think about it, if an ordinary person moves, let alone an hour, even if you give you a week, you may not be able to handle a two-entry house.

While enjoying the convenience brought by power, Li Muyun cursed the evil feudalism in his heart, and at the same time, he did not forget to stop the eunuchs who guided him: "I said father-in-law, please ask, where am I near here?" Can you find a blacksmith?"

"Blacksmith?" The eunuch thought for a while, "As far as I know, the nearest place to have a blacksmith is the mansion of Lord Changsun, and the other is the prison!"

"Then can you trouble your father-in-law to find one for Li?" Li Muyun thought about these two places, and it seemed that he couldn't go in now, so he finally had to give up his plan to find it himself.

"No problem, but I don't know when you want someone?" The eunuch had been ordered before coming to meet all Li Muyun's requirements, so naturally he would not embarrass him on such a trivial matter.

"The sooner the better."

"Okay." The eunuch agreed, turned around and went out to give a few simple instructions, and then came back again: "The person you are looking for will arrive in about half an hour, and if you have nothing else to do, you can go back. "

"Eunuch, go slowly!" Li Muyun was not an ignorant person, the eunuch obviously didn't care to talk to him, and if he wanted to go back to serve the emperor, of course he wouldn't hold him back, so he sent him away with fists in his arms.

"Why are you looking for a blacksmith?" The eunuch left, and Gongsun Lan appeared from an inconspicuous corner.

"Make a good thing, don't worry about what it is, go shopping first, just buy some dried jasmine, peony and fresh flowers." Li Muyun said while pushing Gongsun Lan outside the gate of the house, waving his hand to signal him go quickly.

As a result, instead of leaving, Gongsun Lan stretched out his hand.

"What are you doing?" Li Muyun took a step back.

"Give me the money!" Gongsun Lan said angrily.

"You put it on first, and I'll give it to you later. It's not something valuable." Li Muyun waved his hands rascally. He doesn't have much money in his hand now, so let's save some money if he can.

……

Li Muyun's tossing took an afternoon. After the blacksmith was called, the biggest task was to connect a pipe to the lid of a steamer. This was relatively simple and did not take much time to complete.

But Gongsun Lan's task is more troublesome. She needs to make all the jasmine and peony into powder or flower puree. This is indeed a very troublesome task in the age when there was no juicer.

And when everything was settled, it was already evening.

What happened next made Gongsun Lan even more incomprehensible. After driving everyone out of the kitchen, Li Muyun put all the wine on his body into the steamer, added firewood and started to steam it .

"What on earth are you going to do? It's not that you want to do something bad, is it?" Gongsun Lan looked suspiciously at the tired Li Muyun, with some uncertain questions.

"What else can I do? Of course, prepare a birthday present for the queen. Let me tell you, this is a big deal. Even if His Majesty's business is not done, the Queen's business must be done first, otherwise you will know the pillow immediately. The wind is strong." Li Muyun chatted with Gongsun Lan indifferently, while paying attention to the movement of the steamer.

After most of the night, only less than half a catty of the few catties of wine he brought was left, but the concentration of that 'wine' was terrifyingly high.

Gongsun Lan really wanted to know what use Li Muyun made of this thing, but before she could ask, she saw someone separate the 'wine' from the jasmine flower powder and peony flower mud that she had previously ground into together.

Then, under her suspicious gaze, Li Muyun stuffed one of them into her hand: "Take it and shake it, you don't need to sleep tonight!"

"Why?" The bottle that Li Muyun handed over was tightly sealed, but there was still a strong smell of alcohol coming out. Gongsun Lan received it in his hand in great confusion, and asked with some uncertainty: "Is it really necessary to shake it to the end?" tomorrow?"

"To be precise, it's tomorrow afternoon!" Li Muyun shrugged his shoulders: "Although I'm a little tired, but for the sake of my brain, please help me, don't be lazy! Otherwise, you will only be able to see me when you burn paper."
