Chapter 475 Thin Body

No matter how slow the reaction of Li Xian's head was, he would still be able to react at this time.

Things were definitely not what Webster said. He had been standing on the third floor of Zhenguan Hall to watch, and even asked the eunuch to bring over a telescope.This technique is very simple, and the medicine jade newly sold by Taiyuan Wang's family is very clear and transparent, although in the night, the sight is much better than before.Faintly see the approximate situation.

Wang Hua and Wang Hua's powerful concubine are not crazy, to be precise, they seem to be on the run.

Moreover, the chaos in the city tonight and the fire in the two warehouses all broke out at the same time after Tao Guangyuan's fighting broke out.Is this normal?Could this be an accident?

He asked Webster, "Queen, what's going on?"

The voice is different from the past, very harsh.

Wei Shi also knew that things were serious tonight, if Wang Hua was killed, then nothing would happen.Even if the husband and daughter are angry, they are dead, and life has to pass. Apart from Wang Hua, there is no other figure in the Wang family to seek justice.This matter will be over.But Wang Hua escaped from the palace, and the possibility of killing him this time is less than half.As soon as Wang Hua escaped, she couldn't be safe even if she wanted to be safe.

In fact, this idea is wrong.If Wang Hua died, the consequences would be even more serious.Muzili is ambitious. Although Li Xuejun is pure-hearted and ascetic, Wang Hua is her reliance in her heart. In addition to her son Li Baoer, Wang Hua also has another son of Muzili, which means that Wang Hua has successors.

The soldiers of the Scarlet Battalion were also unwilling. Now that the Wang family wants money and people, Mu Zili himself controls millions of people.That consequence is very bad, very bad.If the Tang royal family can survive, they can only have the last trace of vitality left.And Mu Zili and the others couldn't beat them, and they could retreat to Oceania.Later, I will map Dongshan.In Tao Guangyuan, Webster used people to build Wang's paintings, so Mu Zili is likely to use people to build Tang Dynasty paintings.She doesn't have national righteousness like Wang Hua.What's more, there are Turks and Tubo watching.

But Webster's mind turned quickly, and she immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask you, do you know where Wang Hua's food is obtained from?"

Li Xian was stunned for a moment. Didn't Wang Hua get his food from a distant foreign country through the Central Plains trade?

"You must think he bought it, really? It was planted by his servants overseas. Your Majesty, do you know how many servants he has overseas?"

"Planted?" Li Xian was even more stunned. This is not a few thousand catties of grain, nor tens of millions of catties of grain. The unit is stone. How many people are needed to plant it?He is not Wang Hua, Webster, or Li Dan, he can ask whatever he thinks: "How many servants?"

"More than 200."

Li Xian was startled.

How big is a place in Lingnan Road, including nearly 200 states in Guangzhou, Guizhou, Jiaozhou, and Jiaozhou, with only more than [-] million people.

This is not the main thing. Although there are more than 200 million people, it can't be compared with the Tang Dynasty, and even the population of Tubo and Turks can't keep up.Mainly because of Wang Hua's growth, how old is Wang Hua this year?Not only that, Guan Jian Wanghua was either in the court, or in Qinzhou, or was fighting, and had never been overseas.If this news is correct, then it was only a few years ago that Wang Hua started to operate when he built a boat in Pengli Lake, Raozhou, and launched it into the sea.In this way, it is only a few years.

Li Xian's thinking is not far from the truth, and it is not difficult to analyze.But this staggering number made him a little negligent.Was it really all planted by Wang Hua's men?

More than 200 million is this year's figure, which has grown from scratch, and the number of people in the past was even smaller.But as Li Xian thought, the unit is not based on the catty, and so many people have to open their mouths to eat.Although there are many people and more land, it is primitive fertile land.But now it is primitive farming, and there were not even farming cattle at the beginning.A person's labor is limited. Otherwise, if a person is placed on the American continent, given unlimited fields, and asked to hand over [-] catties of grain a year, he will not be able to grow it even if he is exhausted.

It can only be said that because the land is rich and fertile, the per capita income is higher than that of the people in the Tang Dynasty.

In fact, a large proportion of them came from the authentic trade of Wang Hua, that is, the fleets of various companies also encountered Wang Jia's ship at sea to transport grain back from Tianzhu.The Wei family also tried, but after calculation, they might lose money, so they had to give up.

In fact, after Wang Hua lowered the price of grain to [-] cents per bucket of rice, he really lost money.Although the price difference is earned by bartering, the ship is still its own, the workers are also their own, the tonnage of the ship is increased, and the cost is saved, but it is barely equal.If the above factors are counted, not only will you lose money, but you will still lose a lot.

If you are picky about this, then you are really slandering your conscience. Wang Hua is really doing practical things for the country and the people.

But can Webster have the word "conscience" in his heart?
"Your Majesty, don't doubt it. Wang Hua personally admitted this. Not only that, but Wang Hua's medicinal jade from Taiyuan Wang's family and cement from [-] families are all produced overseas by Wang Hua. That Mayan country is a deceptive lie." .In addition to fireworks and firecrackers, just these few things, how much wealth will be swept away from our Tang Dynasty in a year?"

So if the words are turned upside down, one can say this way, and the other way round, one can say that way.

Without such things as Wang Hua, how much wealth the Dashi merchants took away from the Tang Dynasty in a year.But how much wealth did the Tang Dynasty bring from Dashi?This in itself is a transactional process.Moreover, Wang Hua used many of the proceeds in the Tang Dynasty.If Webster hadn't forced Wang Hua to "awaken", it is possible that all the money would have been spent on the people of the Tang Dynasty.This will make the Tang Dynasty stronger.Besides, Webster didn't say anything about the simplest thing, miscellaneous grains.

"Your Majesty, not only that, the new type of steel was also developed by Wang Hua, and it is possible to prepare a weapon that is more powerful than explosives. This was also said by Wang Hua himself. But did he hand it over to the court? So the concubine Tonight I persuaded him to hand it over, but he turned pale and finally left the palace. Your Majesty, what would you do instead?"

First, crush Wang Hua to death with a big hat.

But Li Xian is not a fool.

Not only is he not a fool, Li Xian had outstanding aptitude when he was young.Some people say that Wu Zetian's four sons are all out of breath and nonsense. Wang Hua scolded these people for being stupid in his previous life, and he continues to scold these people in this life.Li Hong, the eldest son of Wu Zetian, was kind and charitable.For example, soldiers who were in the Liao Dynasty at that time fled or failed to report within the time limit. Not only would they be beheaded when they were found, but their family members would also serve as officials.Li Hongjin remonstrated: "If a soldier fails to meet the deadline due to illness, or unfortunately drowns and crushes to death midway, the military law will not consider them killed in battle. It is called fleeing. In fact, if a soldier really dies, even his family members will be buried with him, but there are many factors behind them that deserve sympathy. There is a saying in "Zuo Zhuan": "Rather than kill the innocent, it is better to be lost." ', I hope that the law can be amended, so that in the future, there are soldiers who flee from the family, and they will not have to suffer the crime of sitting together." Gaozong also agreed to this request.

Things like this happened many times in his short life.If this person is in power, it is possible that the second Song Renzong will be resurrected.Although it is possible that the martial arts are not good enough, there will definitely be great chaos within the Tang Dynasty.

Let's talk about the second son Li Xian.It was a copy of Li Shimin's arrogant son Li Tai.Reading with a photographic memory, in terms of memory, is no less than Wang Hua.With outstanding literary talents, he and scholars commented on "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", which is recognized by the world as the most authoritative commentary on "Book of the Later Han Dynasty".Otherwise, can Shangguan Xiaowan take a fancy to him?
Li Xian was equally courageous when he was young, but in comparison, Li Dan, the fourth son, was inferior when he was young.

It's a pity that they met a mother who was more capable, decisive and ruthless, so they fell down one by one.

Then, the brother-in-law died, the son died, the elder brother died, the uncle died, the cousin died, the cousin sister died, the wife and concubine died, and even the concubine's natal family died.Li Xian was terrified, and Li Dan was also terrified.However, after the two were afraid, their personalities also changed.Li Dan has become more tactful and gloomy, and he already has the foundation for great things.But his character made Lao Wu suffer, and Congo was missing.This is also in history after Li Dan ascended the throne, he did not get angry when he saw Li Longji and Princess Taiping playing a leading role, but just reconciled blindly.The reason why they were transferred to the end, let the two fight each other, and finally voluntarily gave up the throne to Li Longji.But generally speaking, as an emperor, Li Dan is more in line with Li Xian's personality.

Now Li Xian has just become timid and fearful. Why he wants to be the Son of Peace is because he is afraid of any disturbances.

Therefore, although a person's aptitude and personality are partly determined by innateness, the acquired growth process is also very important.Most of the children educated in a relaxed and lively family are lively and cheerful, while those educated in a strict family education are mostly introverted.Another example is Wang Hua. When he debuted, he was said to be a romantic in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, which is really justified.

But now?Has not completed a real villain.However, he still misses the nation and the people in his heart, like a full moon, no matter how dark the night is, it still cannot erase the ray of light in his heart.The reason why there is such a consequence is that his personality has changed due to the weird court struggles in the past few years.

Li Xian's character is weak and can be bullied, but he is not really Jin Huidi.

After the Yizhou incident, he clearly saw the greed of his wife's natal family.Li Xian has already known Wang Hua's tricks behind his back. If it were put on other people, the nine clans would be exterminated, and the three clans would be more than enough.But Wang Hua couldn't count it that way.For example, even if Wang Hua's subordinates planted the grain, so what, Wang Hua didn't want a penny, and let the court fetch it. God knows that in that corner overseas, even the shipping fee might not be more than [-] cents per bucket of rice.

Putting aside previous achievements, let’s talk about Wang Hua, who gave 200 million coins to his wife and more than 300 million coins to his daughter.Let’s not talk about food prices and money wars. After arriving in Qinzhou, we will build roads, build Qinzhou, resettle refugees, and distribute large-scale distribution. The sum of these funds exceeds 1000 million yuan.How much was the annual tax in the Tang Dynasty?

The money was earned by Wang Hua in private, but the money he earned was still used for the country, and even his wife and daughter had "pocket money" to use.

But it cannot be said that it is not Wang Hua's selfishness.His family's porcelain kilns didn't make as much profit as the Wei family's, and the fleet was divided in half, so the Wei family was honest.But when Li Hong mentioned the dock in the front, he was about to reach out later.The blaster appeared in the front, and the back was about to reach out again.These industries were originally obtained by Wang Hua's amazing wisdom. In his hands, he can continue to subsidize the country and the people, and even stabilize his own status.But in the hands of the Wei family, can you spare a dime?

He even vaguely felt that Zong Chuke's matter was promoted by his wife and the Wei family, and that it was a failed attempt to seize Wang Hua's property, so he wanted to kill Wang Hua.Including tonight, it's not what my wife said, but my wife is doing the trick.

This is tantamount to forcing Wang Hua to turn against Tang.

Thinking of this, a burst of anger rose in his heart, but he did not turn back when he opened the bow.It would have been better if he had reacted and stopped the matter in time, at least it would have warmed Wang Hua's heart.But now?And he also felt that the chaos in the city and the fire in the two warehouses were arranged by Wang Hua to save himself.

At this time, Wang Hua couldn't take back her heart.

He said wearily: "You can arrange this matter."

Yun'er faded a little more, and in the cold night wind, it kept flowing and running, as if urging a curved crescent moon to run.

At the end of the first lunar month, Luoyang has not yet reached the time when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. At night, it is still a little cold, and the moonlight has a melancholy taste.

The icy moonlight fell, there was frost on the ground, there was ice beside the canal, and a faint murderous intent rose from the surrounding fields.

Wang painted the horse, because he saw that Xuanren Gate, the only gate in the east of Dongcheng, had been opened, and many cavalry came out of Dongcheng.

Therefore, Wang Hua slapped his horse, and the four galloped eastward.But now Luoyang is in chaos, like a pot of boiling water.The streets are full of chaotic crowds.In fact, the lines of Chengfufang and Yujifang where Wang Hua left were even more chaotic.The three cities of Luoyang are the real targets of the people, followed by Tianjin Bridge in the north and Dingding Gate in the south. This street, which is more than seven miles long, is called Tianjie by Luoyang people. This is also the way when Wang Hua saw off.It is the place where damage is next.Then there is the south bank of Luoshui, along the river from Huixunfang to Yanqingfang, which is also the place where the most dignitaries and nobles in Luoyang live, and the new residence of Painter Wang is also on this line.This is the third damaged place.However, Tongyuanfang in the northernmost part of the city, which is the place where Painter Wang first lived, and Lirenfang in the south of the city, where remote and poor people live, did not suffer any damage.

But the line Wang Hua walked was close to the imperial city, and there were also many officials and nobles living there. For example, the mansion of King Xiang was in this area. Although it was not the center of chaos, there were many people on the street.

Wang Hua was anxious, but seeing the current situation, she felt a little guilty after all, and couldn't bear to gallop away.As long as you run, you will inevitably step on innocent people.But the pursuers don't care about these, Webster's orders are very strict, and hundreds of horses are galloping, and the common people get out of the way just because of the momentum.

Even though there was a house across the street, Wang Hua knew intuitively that the pursuers were getting closer.But Wang Huazhi was not here, and he didn't intend to rush out from that city gate.Originally, the city gates of Luoyang were closed at night, not to mention the chaos in Luoyang tonight.Even if it wasn't for him, the gates of Luoyang would not have been opened.

He still planned to use Shui Xun to escape from Luoshui outside the city.

There is no problem with water-based Wang's paintings. He grew up by the water in his previous life, and he is not far from Zhihe in this life, so he often swims.But Li Xuejun and Aunt Gongsun are slightly inferior.In order to prepare to escape, Wang Hua specially built a super large pool at home, the depth of which reached more than three meters.But for the sake of confidentiality, this pool is in the room, and then put warm water in it to train Aunt Gongsun and Li Xuejun.This is temporary cramming, but fortunately, the two of them have outstanding martial arts skills and quick brain reactions, and their swimming skills have also improved in the past few days.

And the night before yesterday, he took them and a few guards, under the cover of one of his own boats, back and forth at the sluice, and quietly came for a practical training.He is very familiar with this Sluice King painting, and it's not impossible to pull it to death.Therefore, even if you leave from Shuitun, you have to reach Wenluofang or Yanqingfang's Luodi, which are next to this sluice gate.When they jumped into the water, the soldiers guarding the sluice had no time to pull the sluice to death.But it can't be too far away from the sluice. After all, it's not diving quietly now, and it may be under the watchful eyes of everyone.Just don't close the sluice, which needs to be ventilated in the water. If there are random arrows on both sides of the bank, it's true that the arrows can't hit the water surface?
So turn around Yujifang and head south immediately.Of course, no one knew their target, and they thought they wanted to escape southward from the Huitong Bridge.On Luodi, the road is wide and the speed is faster. There is only Yulinfang between Tongtuofang and Wenluofang, which is only two miles away. With the current speed, it can be said that it can be reached in the blink of an eye.

But at this time, two small accidents happened.

Tonight, none of the ministers smiled.The ministers who usually have bad character are basically out of luck tonight, and some houses have been burned down.Some ministers of Qingliu have been affected by the aftermath, and now people are jealous, not every commoner is conscientious, even the painter Wang who has the best impression in the hearts of the common people has received the aftermath, let alone other ministers.It is safe, after this night, Tang Chao said it was too heavy, Luoyang can be said to be a devastating damage, and Zhong Zhong was worried in his heart.

But the most urgent thing is not Webster, Wang Hua escaped, it can be said that he will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future, but now in a peaceful and prosperous world, it is not easy for Wang Hua to rebel. .So the most urgent one is Zong Chuke.

As long as Wang Hua escapes, Zong Chuke can imagine what kind of fate he will have in the future, probably even if he wants to die well.So he took advantage of his power to immediately order the whole city to be under martial law, and then allocated troops to guard several bridges over the Luoshui River, and brought another thousand soldiers to try to cross the Huitong bridge and join the forbidden army in the palace to the west. The net-like siege blocked Wang Hua again.

Just in time to see Wang Hua coming out of Yujifang and turning towards Tongtuofang, he immediately ordered all the soldiers to rush across the Huitong Bridge and stop Wang Hua and the other four.

At this time, there was another accident. After all, Wu Chongning was too young. After running around, he returned home in a daze, and was reprimanded by Princess Taiping who hurried home just now.But Princess Taiping was at fault, it was she who pushed her daughter into Wang Hua's arms on her own initiative.

But Li Chiying is grown up and sensible now.When I came to the palace in a daze, I really encountered refugees who were thinking badly about her. However, more people knew Li Chiying because they had a good impression of Wang Hua. With compassion, and thus rescued.

This affected Li Chiying's thoughts even more.

When they came to Xuanren Gate, Li Xuejun and the others used hooks and ropes, what could Li Chiying use?Even with a hook, she couldn't even throw it over the city wall.Not only her, even ordinary people do not have this strength and skill.

After standing for a while, he walked back in a daze, instead of going back to Xiangwang's mansion, but unknowingly walked to Wang's house, and happened to come to Huitong bridge.Zong Chuke didn't pay attention to Li Chiying when he didn't call out, but when he called out and looked back, Wang Hua actually broke out of the palace.Li Chiying was overjoyed, at that moment she felt so happy that she almost fainted.

It was because of her feelings that she became extremely crazy.Otherwise, Li Longji would smash Wang Hua's shop?Others will smash it, but Li Longji will not. He is not an ordinary person.This is because of pity for my sister's infatuation, which caused great resentment.

But she didn't know Wang Hua's plan, so when she saw Zong Chuke's army coming, she opened her thin arms and tried to stop a thousand troops.

This is a naive move, how wide will the bridge be?Three or five Li Chiying couldn't stop them.But the thousand troops really stopped her.

Originally, she was not very healthy, she broke with Wang Hua, and the little girl was even more thoughtful, like a small bamboo pole.If the horse only needs to touch it lightly, the result can be imagined.

Don't think that King Xiang is being suppressed by Webster now, but he is King Xiang after all.What is Zong Chuke?It is very red, but as Wang Hua said, it is just a rootless duckweed.He could speak ill of Princess Taiping behind his back, but Princess Taiping sent someone to his house to beat people, would he dare to send people to Princess Taiping's house to beat people?Wang Hua dared to smash his house to pieces, did he dare to send people to smash things in Wang Hua's house?If Wei Shi didn't want to kill Wang Hua tonight, would he dare to lead troops to attack Wang Hua?

So I dare not hurt Li Chiying.

Just this stop, because of the sudden brake on the Huitong Bridge, almost rolled over.But Zong Chuke still knew the seriousness of the matter, stopped for a while, and saw Wang Hua and the others continue to run towards Yulinfang, a little anxious, with a wink, can you Li Chiying stop one meter, and can you stop five meters and eight meters?Since the army he brought over, at least the generals were his cronies and lackeys, he immediately understood and ordered the soldiers to rush over from both sides.We don't touch you, can you please?
Seeing this, Li Chiying became even more anxious, and Wang Hua and the others were not far away. This time they rushed up, only the poor four people, especially in the presence of 1000 people, they were particularly eye-catching.So he ran to the side again, clinging tightly to a war horse that was about to gallop.

But the war horse was already running, and Li Chiying's poor and thin body, like a scarecrow hit by a hummer, fell to the ground lightly.

Aunt Gongsun gave Wang Hua a hand. If it wasn't for this pull, Wang Hua would have pulled his horse back.But at this moment, his eyes were moist.

Gritting his teeth, he slapped the horse hard on the horse's back, and ran fast without even looking behind him.Originally, Zong Chuke couldn't catch up, and with Li Chiying's resistance, he couldn't catch up even more.When Zong Chuke came to Wenluofang, the four of Wang Hua had already waded through the thin ice and dived into Luoshui.

Zong Chuke climbed to the top of the city from the Lu wall, and Wang Hua had already drilled out of the city along Luoshui.But after this time, Luoshui's sluice was repaired again.

Maybe Wang Hua is short of troops now, but is he still short of manpower?It was already prepared outside the city, ten war horses, anyway, the more the better, the two supporters brought these war horses over.They even prepared a few robes to keep them warm. It was obviously too late to change clothes, but it was better to have a robe than wet clothes let the cold wind blow.

Wang Hua looked back at the city, just in time to see Zong Chuke, he shouted: "Kill!"

He didn't say what to kill, but Zong Chuke seemed to see sharp knives coming at him.

But Wang Hua didn't take Zong Chuke seriously, and always looked down on Zong Chuke and Wang Hua.With the expansion of power, this contempt included more people, including Li Xian, Li Dan, and Princess Taiping.The original contract was Li Gu'er's marriage, but now it has failed, and it can be said that he has a brighter future.

After finishing his sentence, he turned his head to look at Aunt Gongsun regardless of Zong Chuke's reaction, and thoughtfully said a joke: "Grand Gongsun, you follow behind me, just like Mu Zili and the others, you learned lawlessly. gone."

Aunt Gongsun squeezed the long sword in her hand, her eyes were a little wet, and she finally escaped.Moreover, Wang Hua's words about the great grandson warmed her heart, and she said loudly, "I am willing."

But Wang Hua turned his head again and glanced at the tall city wall of Luoyang, wondering if that thin figure was injured?
Then as soon as they reined in their horses, six people and ten horses disappeared into the vast darkness.
