The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 533 Going to Luoyang

Liu Wei didn't return to the city last night, and he was very sleepy the next morning.

But even so, Liu Wei left the capital with Princess Ruyi and Chai Feng who had already prepared, and rushed to Luoyang.

Luoyang was very prosperous in the Tang Dynasty. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, it was often fought by military strategists. In these years, the Song Dynasty prospered, and Luoyang also got better.

Luoyang was not very far away from Feng. Although Liu Wei and the others had brought a lot of things, they did not delay for long. On a bleak autumn evening, they finally arrived in Luoyang.

But even though they arrived in Luoyang, Liu Wei and the others did not enter the city in a hurry, but temporarily lived in a ruined temple outside Luoyang city for one night.

At night, the dew was heavy and the wind was a little cold. Everyone lit a fire in the ruined temple and sat around chatting.

Chai Feng was a little puzzled, and said: "My son-in-law, now that we have arrived in Luoyang, we can clearly enter the city before the city gate is closed, but why do you want to spend the night here?"

Chai Feng complained a bit. If they entered the city, they could find a good inn, take a good bath and sleep well. But in such a ruined temple, they were not only cold, but they could not sleep at all. None of the places.

Liu Wei is roasting the game that Zhanqing brought in. The smell of the game is so tangy that it makes people want to eat it.

"Of course we can go into the city, but in comparison, it's better to stay here for one night. Someone will pick us up tomorrow."

Chai Feng frowned slightly, the reason Liu Wei said obviously didn't impress her.

"But Mr. Lou Baiyao, the magistrate of Luoyang?" As far as Chai Feng knew, this Lou Baiyao was quite talented, and he had only come to Luoyang for a year. He said that this Lou Baiyao has a weird temper and doesn't get along with others easily, so when Chai Feng said this sentence, he was somewhat unbelievable.

Liu Wei smiled lightly, now that he is no longer a political adviser, he came to Luoyang as a son-in-law, and I am afraid that he is not qualified to let Lou Baiyao go out of the city to welcome him.

"No, I have already sent someone to choose a house for us in the city before I came here, and the person who picked us up was Miss Qin Yunqin." In fact, before Liu Wei and the others came, Qin Yun had already rushed to Luoyang City. Yan Fang's branch in Luoyang City learned about the situation in Luoyang, and then she paid for Liu Wei to buy a mansion. Liu Wei didn't know where the mansion was, so naturally Qin Yun was needed to lead them there.

There are two reasons for not entering the city. One is because Qin Yun does not know that they have arrived, so it will inevitably make Qin Yun very busy after entering the city. If this is the case, it is better to stay outside the city first. , Send a message to Qin Yun first.

The second reason is naturally to see how Lou Baiyao, the prefect of Luoyang, treats him.

In any case, Liu Wei and the others will probably live in Luoyang City for a while, and during this time, he will inevitably have contact with Lou Baiyao. In this case, he needs to know whether Lou Baiyao's attitude towards him is good or not not good.

They came in a hurry today, Lou Baiyao may not know that they are coming, but at this time the news has already spread into Luoyang City, so it depends on whether Lou Baiyao will come tomorrow.

If he comes, it means that this person still has some respect for Liu Wei, but if he doesn't come, then if something happens in the future, the two of them will inevitably have to deal with business.

It's just that this matter, Liu Weiqiu, talked with Princess Ruyi and Chai Feng.

But after Liu Wei said that, Chai Feng and Princess Ruyi frowned slightly, slightly annoyed, and Chai Feng even asked: "Qin...Miss Qin is here too?"

Hearing what Chai Feng said, Liu Wei nodded with a smile: "We first came to Luoyang, and we need a lot of money. Most of my son-in-law's money is in Miss Qin's hands."

Princess Ruyi let out a sigh. Although she felt that Liu Wei's words were embarrassing and awkward, she didn't say much else. Logically speaking, shouldn't Liu Wei's money be in the hands of her regular wife?

But who let Meiyanfang be in Qin Yun's hands? She also manages a lot of money, but that money is just the expenses of Liu's House. Most of Liuwei's money is still in Meiyanfang and Liujia Winery.

And there is another reason why Princess Ruyi didn't speak, that is, Qin Yun had kindness to Liu Wei, and she did things for Liu Wei that she had never done before, so even if she was jealous, she would not too intense.

Liu Wei didn't seem to care much about the thoughts of Chai Feng and Princess Ruyi. The wild game had been roasted. He tore off his legs and gave them to Princess Ruyi and Chai Feng before smiling: "Okay." , everyone, hurry up and eat, and let people take turns to stand guard after you are full."
-
The night is dark, Luoyang City, government office.

A yamen servant had already told Lou Baiyao about Liu Wei, Princess Chaifeng, and Princess Ruyi coming outside Luoyang City. Lou Baiyao was a very thin man, about 40 years old. After hearing the words of the yamen servant, there was no reaction at all.

Seeing Lou Baiyao like this, a person next to Lou Baiyao who looked like the head secretary frowned slightly, and said, "My lord, although this Liu Wei is no longer an official, but his reputation in Song Dynasty But few people can match it, not to mention that he is still a son-in-law, the son-in-law of a princess and a princess, should we go to greet him?"

Lou Baiyao slightly raised his head and glanced at the speaker. He was fat and always had a kind smile on his face. After seeing him the same way, Lou Baiyao said coldly: "Master Yang Ling, Although Liu Wei is a son-in-law, he has no official position in the court, so what is the matter with me going to meet him? And if this matter spreads to the capital, I am afraid that I will be impeached for being unreasonable."

Yang Ling smiled wryly, and said, "Your Excellency is too worried, who would use this to impeach Your Excellency..."

"If you don't agree with the etiquette, it's not worth it. If you want to meet him, you can go."

Yang Ling smiled wryly, and didn't say much, but he thought in his heart that although Liu Wei was dismissed from the position of being a political advisor at this time, he would be able to re-enter the court if he was not in order, and his two wives were princesses. Lord, if I can get in touch with him, I might be able to make a fortune.

Thinking of this, he gave a wink to a man who was catching his head. The man nodded slightly, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. The two understood, and then hurriedly bid farewell to Lou Baiyao.

After leaving, Yang Ling said to the arrester: "Tong Jingtong arrester, Mr. Lou is so rigid, I'm afraid the two of us will have a hard time under his command, and now Liu Wei, a big man, has come to our Luoyang City, if we don’t make friends with it, then we will miss such a great opportunity.”

The head-catcher known as Tong Jing nodded repeatedly: "Master Yang is right. Master Lou is so inflexible. You and I only have this little salary, which is not enough to support our family. It's time for us to find another way out."

After the two finished speaking, they looked at each other and smiled again.
