Li Chongjiu asked, "Who is the owner of the Lushi family in Fanyang?"
Wen Yanbo said, "Lu Chisong, Lu Sidao, has heard that Li Yuan is an elegant man. In his hometown of Zhuojun County, Lu Chisong’s younger brother Lu Qiandan presided over the event!"
Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "The two brothers, one person, and one person, are echoing outside the heads of families."
Li Chongjiu asked, "Does Wen Sima know Lu Qian?"
Wen Yanbo thought for a moment and said, "Beizhi Lu Qian is a stranger, but Lu Chisong and Lu Chengqing sang a few poems and talked about them in detail."
Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "Well, then let’s go to Zhuojun without pomp. I’d like to see a Fanyang Lujia." To be continued …
Chapter two hundred and fifty-two ostentation and extravagance
A caravan of the ancient city of Jixian staggered to this ancient city. Li Chongjiu rode a horse in a fur robe and looked at the head of the city. The word Jixian couldn’t help laughing. After 1,300 years, high-rise buildings were crowded with traffic. This later generation has a population of more than 20 million. According to today’s point of view, the imperial city of China is just a small county with tens of thousands of people.
Jicheng was called Yan Dou or Yanjing in ancient times, which was the ancient capital of the state of Yan among the seven heroes in the Warring States. Mu Xianbei once established the capital briefly and then moved to Jicheng, Longcheng. It has been experienced twice.
Tens of thousands of people are nothing now. Jixian is the largest city in ancient Youzhou, and the first town in the north. People in the north are more accustomed to calling this place Youzhou instead of Jisheng. That piece of Guangsha in the north is Linshuo Palace, which was the camp of Yang Guangzheng in Liao Dynasty, and the south waterway is the terminal of the Grand Canal Tongji Canal.
This trip from Huaihuang Town, traveled by Taihang Zhongjun, bypassed the Great Wall and came to Jixian County. Of course, Li Chongjiu didn’t come to meditate on the past. His trip to Jixian County was intended to be the enemy before the enemy. If you can win over Fan Yang’s Lu family, it is best for Li Chongjiu to be heavy in the future. If Fan Yang’s Lu family fails to negotiate, Li Chongjiu will be wiped away with a cruel hand.
Anyway, it doesn’t matter what you think. I’m a comrade-in-arms on one side, but my party is an enemy.
At this time, the crescent moon is still hanging on the horizon, and people’s vendors are lining up to enter the city. There is a long queue waiting patiently outside the city. This Jixian county is a border town vendor, and many vendors can enter the city directly without a permit.
The inspection of the gate ranks is very lax. I took one look and put it in. Li Chongjiu took one look at the long queue behind him. If I check the past one by one, I really don’t know how long the gate will be blocked, but the more so, the more prosperous Jixian County is.
When Li Chong-jiu arrived, the gate soldiers looked at Mr. Li Chong-jiu’s appearance as if Wen Yanbo was suspicious. At this moment, Lin Dangfeng said a few words before the gate soldiers saw Lin Dangfeng, and when they showed a happy smile, they nodded their heads to signal their caravan to enter.
When you enter the city, you can see the white rice line, slaughter line, oil line, five-cooked line, fruit line, charcoal line, pig iron line, grinding line and silk line everywhere in the bustling streets of Jixian County, which have not been affected by the war.
Jicheng was besieged by Wang Xuba not long ago, and has never suffered from war again. Although rebels have started fighting everywhere, with Xue Shixiong and Fan Yang’s Lujia sitting in the north, it is still a place for the people to settle down.
Li Chongjiu walked in the city with his hat down and looked at the prosperity of Jixian County and nodded secretly. At this moment, there was a sudden noise all around. Li Chongjiu saw that zuyu people were avoiding the road. Li Chongjiu secretly wondered that Sui Jun, armed with a spear and wearing a khaki shirt, came in and listed the roads on both sides to separate pedestrians from each other.
After that, more than a dozen servants each took a basin of water and paved the road in front. Then, servants pulled up a long yellow curtain on both sides of the road to cut off the line of sight.
Li Chongjiu smiled and asked Wen Yanbo, "Which family can have such a fight?"
A butcher-looking man said, "Is this the first time for this guy to come to Youzhou? Where else is there besides Fan Yang’s Lu family?"
Wen Yanbo said, "I heard that there are four daughters in the Lu family. I don’t know which one is traveling?"
The butcher ha ha smiled and said, "You’ve asked the right person. My little San Lu Fu cop told us yesterday that it was the big lady, Miss Er and Miss Si who went to Yakushiji in the east of the city to make pilgrimages."
The butcher said, "A long carriage ran over Li Chongjiu on the loess road. Although it was visible through a layer of yellow curtain, the maids beside the carriage were all gorgeous and beautiful, and they walked with the carriage. There were more maids and grooms, but the curtains of the carriage were all pulled open. You could see a few pretty figures but you couldn’t see each other’s faces."
Can’t get a glimpse of Li Chongjiu’s face. It’s a pity that he turned his head and looked at the slaughter. His mouth was watering and he shook his head.
The butcher suddenly saw Li Chongjiu’s face and said with a smile, "Don’t laugh, don’t laugh, alas, there is a saying in Jixian that those who regret in this life failed to marry Lu Gu’s daughter."
Li Chongjiu heard the words and laughed. "Does the Lu family girl have this heart?"
The butcher smiled and said, "Of course, this sentence was not said by me, but by a prime minister who was an official in those days, but everyone said it for a long time."
Aside, Wen Yanbo nodded his head and said with a smile, "I have also heard that it is indeed a prime minister of Wei Dynasty who said that it is a lifelong regret not to marry Lu Gu’s daughter."
The butcher nodded and said, "I said it was good."
After the Lu family drove, they withdrew from Huangman Street and resumed walking. Li Chongjiu continued on his way. Wen Yanbo said, "People’s marriage is not official, but it is well known that the Lushi family in Fanyang is ashamed of all the married gentry."
Aside from Lin Dangfeng, he said, "It’s not only good for marriage, but also for treating people in 369. When my father was my family, there were several big businesses in Youzhou, but when I got to Lujia, I didn’t even have the qualification to be a purlin. Even the servants bluntly said that I couldn’t let the laity pollute my house."
Li Chongjiu couldn’t help but be surprised. Although the merchant status is humble, it would be too much for Lu Jia to treat the Lins like this.
When Lin Dangfeng and Li Chongjiu jokingly said, "The four young ladies of the Lujia family all stay in the boudoir. If the monarch wants to accept Fan Yang’s Lujia, it is better to choose a marriage. Well, he will also be angry with his concubine, so he will be a self-sustaining aristocratic brother."
Li Chongjiu smiled, but Wen Yanbo said seriously that "the marriage of the four major families of the Lujia family, even if the court suppressed the situation in recent years, chose Li’s in-laws in Longxi."
"Li in Longxi?" Li Chongjiu couldn’t help asking
Wenyanbo nodded and said, "It was in those days that Lu Jia’s master Lu Yuan and Li Ping in Longxi got along well with each other. After Li gained power in Longxi, Lu Jia also had many marriages. But a few years ago, Li Hun and Li Min’s family in Longxi were hit, and several women in Lu Jia were involved in exile. Therefore, Lu Jia has changed Li Yuan to be very close, even though Li Yuan is not the orthodox Li in Longxi."
Li Chongjiu suddenly realized that this was another big Sui department valve struggle. At that time, there was a saying that Li deserved to be the best. At that time, Li in Longxi was the first giant in Gansu, and Yang Guang started to kill his heart and cut it off. However, the death of Li Hun and Li Min not only made the cremation in Gansu more hostile to Emperor Yangdi, but also made Li Yuan take advantage of Li’s family status to win over Li’s forces in Longxi.
Lin Dangfeng is a businessman who doesn’t know much about this struggle in the imperial court. He said, "Li Longxi, who is also surnamed Li, can be a satrap. I think we must strip them of this pride before we can accept them."
