Country color

Chapter 63
Seeing Li Hu and Su Suzhi's doubts, Li Chongjiu briefly explained to them the truth that power comes from the barrel of a gun.

In peaceful times, everything is suppressed by the government. If the government has no background and no official protection talisman, no matter how much money you make, sooner or later people will miss it, just like a fat sheep in captivity will be slaughtered sooner or later.

In troubled times, fists are king.No matter how big the bodyguard bureau is, if there is not enough armed force to defend it, everything will be nothing.

Li Hu and Su Su couldn't help but nodded.

However, 100 people cannot be allocated for the time being, and Li Hu and Su Su can only allocate 50 people for Li Chongjiu for the time being.Let Li Chongjiu take him to Shaoshi Mountain, worship Shaolin Temple together, and become lay disciples.

The matter was settled, and the next day in front of the Anxi Gate in Luoyang City, Li Chongjiu sent Li Hu, Su Su, and Wang Mahan to leave Luoyang with all the brothers.

"Xiao Jiu, take care!"

On the occasion of parting, Li Hu deliberated over and over again before choking out these words.

Wang Mahan is also a muddleheaded person, he didn't hold back a single word except for a few hey-hey words for a long time.

Su Su explained Li Chongjiu's reasoning. Although Su Su talked a lot and was a little bookish, Li Chongjiu listened carefully.

"After a few years, things will slow down and no one will remember what the government wanted. You can go back to Shangdang and fight the world together. In Luoyang, King Qi can't protect you for the rest of your life."

After Su Su solemnly warned, Li Chongjiu nodded seriously.

When they parted, they talked endlessly, but when Li Hu and Su Su's backs gradually moved away, Li Chongjiu couldn't help feeling that something was missing in his heart for a moment.

Thinking of this scene, Li Chongjiu couldn't help saying in a long voice: "There are confidants in the sea, and the world is like neighbors. Inaction is on the wrong road, and children share the towel."

After reading it, Li Chongjiu suddenly remembered that this poem was written by the great poet Wang Bo, the four masters of the early Tang Dynasty, and Wang Bo was the grandson of the great Confucian Wang Tong.

Li Chongjiu couldn't help sneering a few times when he thought about Wang Hezhi from the Taiyuan Wang family. "It's a good sentence, a confidant in the sea is like a neighbor in the world!"

Li Chongjiu turned his head, and saw a Mr. Pianpian clapping his hands behind him, followed by a beautiful lady, who looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Li Chongjiu looked at this young master, his eyes were picturesque, but he was very handsome.However, Li Chongjiu could tell at a glance that the other party was a woman disguised as a man. If this person was dressed as a woman, she would definitely be a woman of great beauty, and her appearance would not be inferior to Li Zhiwan.

Thinking of Li Zhiwan, Li Chongjiu immediately remembered the slight unpleasantness with Li Zhiwan last time, that would be good, it would destroy her previous good image in front of her eyes.

Li Chongjiu thought that in the past, he would utter nonsense in front of all his brothers, and wanted to marry him, but now it seems that it is going to be a dead end.But having said that, even if the image hadn't been damaged before, given the current status gap between the two, the hope is extremely slim.

Li Chongjiu saw such a stunning woman, although she was dressed in men's clothing, but the clothes were exquisitely made of materials, she obviously lived a life of luxury, and the other party was fresh and elegant, obviously she was the daughter of some aristocratic family.

Now Li Chongjiu has a big headache for the daughter of such a family, she slightly cupped her hands and smiled, and said: "It's a temporary work, it's hard to be elegant, just laugh at me, laugh at me."

After finishing speaking, Li Chongjiu cupped his hands, turned around and walked away.

Leaving the other party in a daze at the moment, it took a lot of determination for her to come forward to say hello.

The beauty behind her also took a few steps forward, pursed her lips and said with a smile, "I never thought that the world-renowned Master Qu would be shut down today."

The woman who disguised herself as a man must have come to see Li Chongjiu's Qu Yanran.

She blushed slightly and said, "Yunniang, you are making fun of me."

After finishing speaking, Qu Yanran smiled herself, then looked at Li Chongjiu's back and shook her head helplessly.

After Li Chongjiu returned to the inn, he thought that things in Dongdu were over, and it was time to leave.

However, before leaving, Li Chongjiu went to Qi Wangfu to say goodbye to Qi Wang. prison.

After Li Chongjiu came to Qi Palace, he knew that Princess Changle was a guest in Qi Palace, so he went in directly.

When Li Chongjiu went straight into the living room, there was a long row of court officials dressed in scarlet and green, sitting and waiting.

In the Sui Dynasty, the official system was purple for grade five and above, scarlet and green for grade six and below, and blue for minor officials.Li Chongjiu was wearing a soap suit among the crowd, which was very eye-catching.

King Qi's dude is used to using the palace as an official office, so all the big and small matters of his subordinates go to the palace of Qi.And this group of officials had been waiting for a long time, and they almost vomited blood when they saw Li Chongjiu's clothes were as straight as in Prince Qi's mansion.

Li Chongjiu was also secretly amazed, wondering when did he lose face so much.

After entering the room, Princess Changle sat behind the curtain, abiding by etiquette, while Qi Wang Yang Hao sat casually.

Li Chongjiu saluted according to the rules and saw that behind the curtain, Princess Changle said: "Chongjiu, I heard that the pipa song that is famous in Dongdu today was written by you for King Qi, but it is true."

Li Chongjiu said: "Reporting to the princess was not done by grass-roots people. It was because I heard a wandering Taoist chanting back then, so I remembered it in my heart."

After the curtain was drawn down, Princess Changle nodded slowly, and said: "So that's the case, you are honest. As a mountain citizen, you are expected to be unable to make such brilliant words."

Li Chongjiu was taken aback for a moment, Princess Changle seemed to be dissatisfied with herself in her tone.

I only heard Princess Changle speak slowly: "Chongjiu, I heard your words that day in the outskirts of the Eastern Capital, and I felt that you were a virtuous person who cared about all the people in the world, so I always respected you. I heard that you were in Taiyuan, and Shangdang murdered six people in a row, which made me really sad."

Speaking of this, Princess Changle sighed, and said: "That's all I said, and it's hurtful to say anything else, I hope you can do it yourself in the future."

Li Chongjiu listened to Princess Changle's words, but instead smiled slightly, and said, "Does this mean that life is just like seeing you for the first time?"

Princess Changle couldn't help being surprised when she heard Li Chongjiu.

Li Chongjiu knew very well about Princess Changle. This princess was born in the emperor's family and had little contact with the outside world. She was also a woman with a strong sense of justice and a woman's compassion. Just like when we first met, She will protect that elk like.

Although the other party has a natural sense of justice, Li Chongjiu can understand it, but his own disgust is that such noble women have a common problem, they look at things from their own point of view, and don't understand the position of others.

Li Chongjiu said seriously: "Princess, I didn't intend to offend, but not everyone lives in the emperor's house. For me and other ordinary people, there are too many helpless things."

"I don't say this to complain about my background. Among the six people, I dare say that none of them were killed by me. They were all self-defense, and there were reasons for it. If the princess still blamed the grassroots for this, the grassroots have no choice but to kill them." You can talk, but please punish the grassroots to rectify the law of the country."

Princess Changle heard what Li Chongjiu said, and said angrily: "Don't you dare to treat me?"

Li Chongjiu said: "It's not about daring or not. The grassroots have always done things with a clear heart, so I speak frankly, and I ask the princess to forgive me."

Seeing that Li Chongjiu and Princess Changle were about to have a conflict, Yang Hao felt very sorry, and immediately stood up and said, "Okay, for my sake, let's forget about it." Princess Changle listened to Yang Hao's words, and immediately With a soft snort, he walked away.

Yang Hao saw Li Chongjiu's displeasure, smiled and said: "Sister has this temper, but I quarreled with her countless times when I was young, although she was angry at the time, it will be fine after a day, don't worry superior."

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "How dare you be angry with the princess."

Yang Hao laughed and said, "Oh, by the way, you are here to say goodbye to me? Don't you want to stay in Prince Qi's mansion to do business?"

Li Chongjiu said: "Thank you King Qi for cultivating, the grassroots did not want to work in the officialdom."

Yang Hao felt a little emotional when he heard this, and said: "Chongjiu, Chongjiu, you are honest and straightforward. How many people dream of asking for a job with me, but they can't get in. But that's okay, it's okay to be flattering and flattering." I am determined to kick him out of the door, so that I can believe that you are a sincere friend to me."

Li Chongjiu smiled slightly and said, "Thank you for your love, Your Highness."

"Since it's parting, I'll give you something as a souvenir." Yang Hao said with a smile.
