Red Tang

After some discussions, Yang Zhao and Jia Chang applauded, thinking that giving Gao Lishi a copybook was far more ingenious than gold and silver treasures.

After some instructions, one of his servants wrapped the copied copybook in silk and satin, and put it in Jia Chang's carriage.Giving gifts is also a kind of knowledge, pay attention to timing rather than early.You have to give it in a timely manner without embarrassing the recipient.Take the gift to Gao Lishi as an example, he can only rush in through the side door in the form of a visit when the old man is out of the palace.In this way, the person receiving the gift will not feel the slightest discomfort, and the gift will be given successfully.

Gao Lishi's mansion was built in Yishanfang (Note 1).Because it is close to the Daming Palace, he can enter the palace immediately to wait for the orders of the Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty.Although he was considered the second most powerful figure in the Tang Dynasty, he never forgot his identity.All his honor and favor belonged to Li Longji, so no matter what happened, his position would always be on the side of the Tang Emperor.Loyalty and self-knowledge are the magic weapon for Gao Lishi to occupy a high position for many years.Over the past ten years, both he and Li Sanlang have gotten used to this pattern, and neither of them can take the initiative to break it.

Gao Lishi is obviously in a good mood today. Judging by His Majesty's tone, the assassination case of the Tubo prince should be suppressed here, and he will find a death row prisoner at random to make a nest.In this way, His Royal Highness Wang Guangping will be completely separated, and the disaster will not be directed to the East Palace.

Shaking his head lightly, Gao Lishi walked slowly to the desk and played with a crystal clear jade ruyi.This object should also be a rare commodity, and it would be difficult for the prince.This time I was beating and drumming on the sidelines, but I could see some clues.After all, His Majesty is accommodating to the prince, otherwise he would not soften his heart just because of his few words.Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, so what if it is a heavenly family?

He, Gao Lishi, was not greedy for money, he accepted this gift only for the prince's face.Your Majesty is getting old, and it's time to think about the future.Not to mention that the prince has always been respectful to him, just seeing that cautious appearance makes people feel pitiful.Help where you can, it's not easy for anyone!

"My lord, Lord Censor Yang and Lord Fuping Hou Jia are asking to see you!" Gao Fu bowed his body and nodded, interrupting Gao Lishi's meditation.

"Oh? Tell them to wait in the side hall." Gao Lishi frowned, but decided to go out and meet.He didn't dare not give Yang Zhao the face of this brat. With the help of the imperial concubine, he has now held more than [-] positions, and has faintly become the second person in real power besides Li Linfu.Although Jia Chang has no real power, he is also a popular person who speaks to His Majesty, and there is no need to block his own way as a man.When anyone is not unlucky and frustrated, saving face for others is to leave a way out for himself.

After tidying up his appearance slightly, Gao Lishi entered the side hall and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Master Yang, Master Jia. Rare guest, rare guest!"

"Gao Weng Zhesha!" Yang Zhao, who was drinking tea, quickly stood up and went forward.

Jia Chang didn't seem to be good at talking, so he cupped his hands at Gao Lishi as a return gift.

"Oh, I just came back from the palace, and I heard from the butler that there are distinguished guests asking to see me. Who am I, it turns out that it is the two of you!" Gao Lishi sat on the main seat, picked up a bowl of scented tea, and took a sip.

"For disturbing Gao Weng Qingxiu, Yang should die!" Yang Zhao answered Gao Lishi's words, and the flattery was just right.

"It will be Gao Weng's birthday in a few days. The little old man has nothing to treasure, so I copied "Seventeen Posts". I hope Gao Weng likes it."

"Oh?" Gao Lishi was obviously interested, took the scroll handed over by Jia Chang, and unfolded it lightly.

"Master Jia has such a good handwriting, but has been hiding it from me. He should be punished. Your song "Seventeen Posts" (Note 2) not only shows the boldness of Wang Youjun (Note 3), but also delicate Jingqiao is indeed like everyone else."

Jia Chang's copybook was originally made by a scholar raised in the mansion with a knife, now Gao Lishi praised him, his face turned red to the neck, and he hurriedly cupped his hands in thanks.

Seeing that Gao Lishi was in high spirits, Yang Zhao waved his hand and signaled the servants to bring up a box.Although he had signed the "Seventeen Posts" presented as a gift, he didn't dare to really perfunctory Gao Lishi like this.In fact, he had already searched around for Gao Lishi's birthday, collecting treasures, which can be said to have exhausted his mind.

I saw the servant take out a Yuezhou celadon (Note 4) jar from the box. This bottle is well-proportioned and full of color. It is placed on the Liuqu bookshelf, giving people a sense of freshness and refinement.

"Okay!" Gao Lishi clapped his hands repeatedly, he loves to collect inscriptions and paintings, and he also has a little dabble in porcelain.A jar as perfect as the prototype, even a first-class master may not be able to sculpt it.It seems that this boy Yang Zhao has put in a lot of effort, this time he must have something to ask for himself!

Seeing Gao Lishi applauding, Yang Zhao was overjoyed.But he couldn't make a request to Gao Lishi right now, this is an official rule, the more impatient, the worse the effect.

"The weather is nice today, why don't you two accompany me to the garden?" Gao Lishi narrowed his eyes slightly, and stretched out his hand as an invitation.

Gao Hussar asked first, how dare the two of them refuse to follow?

In the golden autumn and September, the garden is full of chrysanthemum fragrance.

Under the careful care of the gardener, the garden of Gaofu has become prosperous, with all kinds of exotic flowers competing for beauty.Although this place is not as gorgeous as Mrs. Guo's house, it is more delicate and beautiful, which makes people sigh.

"Gao Weng is so lucky to have all the beauty of the world in the mansion!" Yang Zhao gave Gao Lishi a thumbs up, and gave Gao Lishi his compliments without hesitation.

"That is to say, playing with flowers and plants when you have nothing to do, you don't have courage when you are old." Gao Lishi waved his hand and sat down on a stone bench.

"I don't know who will be lucky enough to become Fang Kui in Gao Weng's garden?" Yang Zhao walked to a cluster of chrysanthemums, and threw out the introduction at the right time.

"Well, gold always shines. The smell of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, and someone likes the flowers that His Majesty likes." Gao Lishi squinted his eyes lightly, and replied like this.

The old fox!Yang Zhao cursed secretly in his heart, but he was not willing to be taken by Gao Lishi with a word.

"Good flowers also need a gardener to cultivate them, and good horses also need to be favored by bole. If anyone can win the favor of Gao Hushi, I am afraid that he will be blessed with three lives. I heard that Li Kuo, the captain of Xuanjie, has been standing up for many times recently. I don't know what Gao Hushi thinks about it?" Yang Zhao tried to pry a few words out of Gao Lishi's mouth.

"Some time ago I was walking with His Majesty in the Daming Palace, and I heard the sage mention this son." Seeing Yang Zhao's persistent questioning, and for the sake of the Yuezhou blue vase, Gao Lishi decided to give him some advice. sentence.

"From the tone of the saint, I'm afraid it's not easy to promote him recently." Gao Lishi tied his hands behind his back and sighed softly while looking at the vast clear sky.

"Why?" Yang Zhao didn't know that Gao Lishi would insist that Li Kuo had no chance to be promoted, so he was anxious and cried out a little out of composure.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yang." Gao Lishi shook his head and said, "I don't understand the appointment of Mr. Yang? It is said that he is promoted step by step according to the evaluation of the Ministry of officials. Isn't it just a matter of a sage? Sometimes the promotion is fast. It is not necessarily a good thing, but it is a bad thing if the promotion is slow. Originally, His Majesty wanted to investigate the assassination case of the Tubo prince, but His Royal Highness Guangping was involved in it. In desperation, he suppressed the case. It must have given the Tubo people an excuse. The Tubo people have been ambitious for a long time, and the sage must have used troops in the west. Our Tang Dynasty was a world won on horseback, and everyone knows that earning military merits can be promoted faster than civilian positions!" General Gao Lishi The voice raised, and two jing lights shot out from the eyes.

"Oh!" Yang Zhao patted his forehead and suddenly realized.

It turns out that His Majesty wanted to send this kid Li Kuo to the border to experience training. In this way, although he cannot be directly controlled by him, he will inevitably become a state tycoon in the future with his qualifications, and his influence in the army will be greatly improved. few!

Thinking of this, Yang Zhao's already ashen complexion gradually turned rosy, these days are so fucking comfortable!
