Chapter 57
After Huaiyu left the warrior's residence, he turned around and went to Xu's residence in the same square.

He reported to the door that he was the nephew of Samurai Ling in the workshop, and gave him a pipa that Samurai Ling gave him as a gift, which was also prepared for him by Samurai Ling. The old Wu said that Xu Luoren was the descendant of the Yingchuan Xu family The family has three generations of Guanlong generals and three generations of dukes. He grew up with Li Shimin in Wugong County in the west of Beijing.

Many aristocrats and relatives in Chang'an have affiliations in Wugong County.

Before the Li family raised troops in Taiyuan, Li Shimin sent a letter to invite Xu Luoren to do important things together. In the past ten years, Xu Luoren has always been by Li Shimin's side as the captain of the guard, loyal and loyal. Xu Luoren has never led soldiers to fight, but there are still The Duke of Jiangxia County, and was promoted to the Commander of the Daming Mansion after Xuanwumen, leading the army and the commander of the north gate of the guard.

Xu Luoren is Li Shimin's most trusted bodyguard. He doesn't study leading troops to fight. He usually likes to study horses and pipas. Because Li Shimin likes BMWs and pipas, Xu Luoren often presents BMWs, pipas, and pipa music to Li Shimin.

"This pipa is pretty good. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the one in Xuancheng's collection by the warrior warrior." Xu Luoren saw the origin of the pipa at a glance, and said to his wife Song Shanzhi with a smile: "The warrior Xun called into the court for The servant of the Huang family is now, and Wu Shiyi has also been promoted to the governor of Shaozhou, which is much better than the Yang family."

The Song family is also a descendant of the general family. Her grandfather and father both have the Duke of Yongning County. She is good at playing the pipa. The couple also like to play the pipa to study and study music. Small beads fall on a jade plate.

"This pipa is indeed a famous product. The appearance and tone are very good. It is also quite old. Duke Xuancheng is willing to give this pipa to a nephew of the side branch clan as a gift. It seems that he thinks highly of this young man."

"My lady doesn't know that this Wu Erlang is the master of the treasure pill that is now said to be scrambled by noble families in Chang'an City. It is said that he came down from Zhongnan Mountain. He practiced Taoism with a Taoist immortal in Louguan In [-], he was good at medicine and good at making alchemy and face-to-face. Qin Shubao, the Duke of Yi State, was seriously injured and sick, unable to get up from bed, and the imperial doctor was helpless. Seeing the situation, he prescribed the elixir. After Yi Guogong took the medicine, he got better soon, and now he was appointed to an important position again. General Zuo Wuwei, General Chang'an Daoqigu, do you think you are a god?

Let me tell you another secret, don’t let it out to the outside world. On that day, Hou Junji and I accompanied His Highness the Crown Prince, Changsun Gong and Fang Gong to Wu Erlang’s place in microfuge. Fang Gong's physical discomfort can also be seen at a glance, and he prescribed a prescription. Later, he took the medicine and showed it to the old Fengyu of Shangyao Bureau, and they all agreed. "

"His Highness is considering granting him an official position, but he has not yet considered what official position to give him."

"Since he is good at medicine, why didn't he be recruited into Dianzhong Provincial Shangyao Bureau, Taichang Temple Imperial Medical Office, or Donggong Medicine Tibetan Bureau?"

"Your Highness thinks that asking him to be a doctor is too condescending, and that a technical officer has no future. You don't know, that day when His Highness made a private visit in disguise, that kid talked at length. I could hear His Highness treating him very well from outside the door." appreciate."

Song Zhishan hugged the pipa, "Since that's the case, then Ah Lang hasten to invite this talented man into the house to entertain him."

"I'm just a little hesitant. I don't want to get involved with the Wu family too early. Although the warrior Xun entered the court as the servant of the Huangmen, it doesn't mean that His Highness really trusts him. Maybe it's just a temporary appeasement. Mingsheng actually descended, secretly taking Yangzhou from him. As for the governorship of the Metropolitan Government, how about finding an excuse and changing to an idle position at that time?"

"Besides, I accompanied His Highness down to meet him that day."

Song Shanzhi caressed the pipa, "Why don't I come to see him and greet him on behalf of Alang."

"It's not quite right."

Xu Luoren was only in his twenties, Song was a few years younger than him, and Wu Huaiyu was only eighteen.

"Why don't Pipa accept it and return him a gift, and then say that Alang is not at the house today?" Song Shanzhi hadn't thought about it that much at first, but when he saw that her husband cared, he realized that Wu Erlang was a young man who really wasn't suitable for the two of them. meet.

"Alright, pick a horse for him."

Huaiyu waited outside for quite a while, but a steward of Xu's mansion led a Dangxiang Hequ horse out, "My family, Alang, is not at the house today, Madam likes the pipa Wu Erlang gave me very much, so I accepted it on behalf of Alang, but it's not convenient for her It's really rude to come out to entertain you, Madam specially chose this Hequ horse as a gift to Wu Erlang."

The housekeeper specially reminded Huaiyu that this horse was a good horse that Xu Luoren personally selected, and it was produced in the Hequ area of ​​the Eight Departments of Dangxiang in Tuyuhun. An ordinary Hequ horse weighs about 1000 catties, but this horse weighs more than [-] catties and is five feet tall. , much higher than normal.

Compared with the Khitan horse of six or seven hundred catties, it was a lot taller, and its load-bearing capacity was also stronger.

Such a horse is very valuable, and it is more expensive than the pipa Huaiyu gave. Of course, Huaiyu's pipa is also a collector's item. In the eyes of people who really like it, its value is hard to say.

"Wu Erlang, please accept it."

Huaiyu looked at the horse that was over 1.5 meters tall.The eyes are large and medium, the back is broad and straight, and the coat color is white.

The back hair, the mane, the tail hair, the limbs, the whole body is white, without a trace of stray hair. Such a pure white horse is still rare, and it makes this horse Xiongjun look better.

Huaiyu felt that the horse was too expensive, but the other party insisted that he accept it.

"Then I will visit Mr. Xu next time."

I didn't see Xu Luoren, but the other party took the pipa that was given to him, and returned a horse called Junhequ Baima. Huaiyu felt that this trip was not in vain. At least this Li Shimin's close bodyguard didn't dislike Wu Erlang, and he might even reveal that the Wu family It is relatively safe at present, otherwise it would be impossible for others to accept his gift, let alone return a good horse.

It is still very eye-catching to lead two horses, one black and one white, on Fang Street.

Huaiyu simply went back to Huaiyuanfang first, and gave the white horse to Runniang to take care of first, and then went to Cheng's house in Huaidefang. I just crushed the wax shell and ate a pill, and then asked someone to fetch water, and tried it out with the soap, and it covered my face and hands with foam, and I was very excited when I rubbed it.

"This thing is better than bath beans, and the scent is quite good for me, good stuff."

"Housekeeper, from now on, the family will stop buying bath bean noodle medicine and hand ointment. They will all go to Huaiyu's Qianjintang to buy this fragrant soap for use."

"Uncle Cheng, what else should I buy? From now on, I'll send some to the family every month for use."

"I, Cheng Zhijie, still lack that little money, can I still take advantage of the younger generation?"

Sitting and chatting for a while, Huaiyu said that he was going to visit Qin Qiong's mansion.

"Go together."

Cheng Yaojin asked Zi Chuliang to go with him.

Qin Qiong has been very busy recently. He is now promoted to General Zuowuwei, and he is also General Chang'an Daoqigu. Stand guard for Li Shimin.

Originally, after taking the medicine prescribed by Huaiyu, her body was improving, but recently she became weak again due to busy work.

"Stand guard for His Royal Highness every night?"

"Well, His Highness has often had nightmares recently. Only Shu Bao and Jing De stood guard for him, so that the evil spirits would not dare to approach, and His Highness could sleep peacefully. But in this way, Shu Bao's body that has just recovered cannot help but be unable to bear it. , Standing on the armor every night, and having to take on several jobs during the day, how can I bear it." Cheng Yaojin sighed, "I wanted to replace Shubao as His Highness's night watch, but I can't hold back without Shubao's ability. , Your Highness is still having nightmares."

After hearing this, Huaiyu couldn't help but feel sorry for Qin Shubao. Qin Shubao promised to go to Bailuyuan to rest and recuperate last time, but now he not only holds several important positions, but also has to stay overnight for Li Shimin. This unrecovered body can't bear it.

"Only Shubao and Jingde stand guard and watch the night. No one else can do it. I, Hou Junji, Xu Luoren, Zhou Xiaofan, Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Gongjin, Liu Shili, and even Gao Shilian, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui can't do it.

Qin Qiong looked haggard, but she didn't complain: "If I work harder and can calm His Highness, it should be and worth it."

Cheng Yaojin asked Huaiyu: "Does Erlang have any good prescriptions to relieve His Highness's situation?"

Huaiyu felt that Li Shimin might be a little bit guilty. No matter how the Xuanwumen Incident happened, after all, people killed brothers and imprisoned their fathers to seize the throne. So many people died that day. It is normal to feel uneasy and unable to sleep at night, especially After all, this incident happened not long ago, and now he has not yet secured his position, and the Turks are aggressively suppressing the situation. Li Shimin's psychological pressure must be enormous.

After all, Li Shimin is only in his twenties, and having nightmares is also a manifestation of excessive physical pressure.Maybe he also worried every day that he would be rebelled by others when he was sleeping at night. Didn't Li Yuan be kidnapped by Hou Junji and others he sent to Haichi Dragon Boat in his sleep? His cousin Yang Guang was also arrested in Jiangdu. The rebellious Xiaoguo army was hanged.

Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong are both loyal and brave, and their military strength is superb. They put on armor and stand guard outside his bedroom, so that he can feel at ease.

"We can prescribe a elixir to calm and soothe the nerves, which will help us sleep peacefully at night, but..." Huaiyu felt that Li Shimin was mainly troubled.

He suddenly thought of something, Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong were the door gods, but the door gods before Tang were not the two of them, the former door gods seemed to be called Shentu Yulei.

"In addition to the elixir to soothe the gods, I still have a method. I can draw a portrait of Yi Guogong on a peach wood board, and then use cinnabar mixed with black dog's blood, saltpeter, sulfur, mercury, etc. to draw talismans and seals, and hang them on the palace gate. First, it can make this portrait have the effect of exorcising evil spirits, and when the big iron spear, golden mace, and armor used in the battle of Duke Yi are placed in front of the palace, it will also have the effect of suppressing evil spirits and exorcising evil spirits."

"Duke Yi's armor, iron spear, and golden mace have gone through hundreds of battles with Duke Qin, and they are soaked in countless blood, as well as the blood of Duke Qin's generals. This is the most deterrent to evil spirits."

A mahogany portrait with affixed talismans and Qin Qiong's weapons and armor was used to replace Qin Qiong to stand guard and guard the gate.

Cheng Yaojin was both surprised and delighted when he heard that, "Really?"

"Definitely."

Qin Qiong said: "I've worked so hard that nothing happened. Before changing the vigil, His Highness couldn't sleep peacefully. If this method doesn't work, His Highness will suffer again."

Old Cheng pointed to Huaiyu: "You have personally experienced Erlang's ability, and I, Lao Cheng, are also very convinced. Zhong Nanshan followed the old god, and the famous teacher gave birth to a high-ranking apprentice. His master was more than 100 years old and became a fairy. My master, Lou Guandao's ability to make alchemy and draw talismans is well known in the world, why not let him have a try, so that he can once and for all in the future, otherwise one day you will be exhausted, who will guard the door for His Highness?"

"Then try?"

"Try it!"
