Looking at Wang Deyi's face, Liu Deng also felt that it seemed a bit too much.
"Well, why don't we get a dozen or so cars first?"
Liu Deng said weakly.
"promise!"
Wang Deyi's expression finally softened a bit. Although these dozen cars were still a bit exaggerated, the emperor should still hold his nose and endure it.
"Your Majesty!"
While the two were talking, a man dressed as a butler walked by.
Liu Deng took a closer look and found that he actually recognized him.
"You, are you Dou Zhong?"
Liu Deng thought for a long time before calling out the name.
"Your Majesty has a good memory, so the Queen Mother personally issued a decree asking me to select some capable people for your Majesty, so I recommended the younger ones to temporarily take care of these servants for Your Majesty."
"In that case, you can be a housekeeper in my house! You can take care of the daily affairs!"
Anyway, for Liu Deng, Chang'an is a temporary residence after all. His foundation is in Jinyang. It would be good to have a loyal person to take care of the property in Chang'an City.
In any case, Liu Deng was very grateful to Dou Zhong for traveling all the way day and night to Jinyang to report the news. Naturally, his loyalty to the Dou family was beyond doubt.
During this period of time in Chang'an, all Liu Deng had to do was to keep a low profile and bide his time. After the marriage between the two families, Liu Deng was tied to the Dou family's chariot.
For a long period of time in the future, the interests of both parties will be consistent, so Liu Deng can fully trust the Dou family's manpower.
"Your Majesty, I will send you the missing things immediately after I return! I still have some things to do in the palace, so I'll take my leave now!"
Seeing Dou Zhong coming, Wang Deyi hurriedly started to say goodbye.
After all, in such a short period of time, I had lost more than a dozen cars of treasures. If I had been grinding for a while longer, I might have lost something more!
Others may know what it means to give up as soon as you see fit, but this guy really doesn’t know!
God knows if this man will slap his thigh and take this opportunity to empty out half of the palace.
"Well......"
Before Liu Deng could speak, Wang Deyi had already disappeared.
It looked like he was running for his life. Liu Deng could only curl his lips when he saw it, such a stingy spirit!
"Your Majesty, these are gifts from Your Majesty and the Queen. The list is here. Look..."
In any case, Liu Deng settled in Chang'an, and the emperor had to deal with the daily expenses of this residence.
Although Liu Deng was not lacking in things like land, property, and servants, the royal gift was an honor after all.
In addition, Liu Deng is getting married soon, so the emperor and queen are really generous in taking action.
The two of them just waved their hands, and Liu Deng opened two more imperial palaces outside Chang'an City.
"Just watch and deal with these things! I'm a little tired, take me to rest first!"
"promise!"
Although he suddenly gained a lot of land, for Liu Deng, he really doesn't value these things much now.
They are just two Zhuangzi. Compared with the power of appointing and removing officials who have to pay for the country, what do they mean?
Although Liu Deng also knew that centralization was something that could not be helped, and it was also a need for social progress. After all, the centralized system of feudal society was the basis for social stability.
Generally speaking, the parallel operation of counties and states like the current one will do more harm than good!
After all, a country's internal affairs have many internal affairs, which itself is the source of chaos. Since Liu Bang divided the princes, aren't the rebels in the world all the children of princes?
Human desires are endless. No matter how much you get, you will always feel that what you don’t get is the best!
However, Liu Deng was really unwilling to hand over his power to a bastard like Tao Qing.
Liu Deng had drank a lot today, and he had made such a fuss today. Now that he had returned to his own territory, he relaxed and fell asleep after a while.
But on the other side, Tao Qing was blindfolded. After walking around Chang'an City for a few times, he entered a large mansion.
However, since they came in, the two people disappeared, leaving only two maids to serve Tao Qing to drink tea, which lasted two hours.
"When will your master come? Do you want me to wait until dawn tomorrow? Go and tell your master that I will come to visit another day! Farewell!"
It was almost getting dark now. Tao Qing could be considered a Marquis after all, and he had been tormented like this for a long time.
Coupled with the tea soup that was half full, I naturally couldn't say anything good now.
"Master Marquis, my master has sent word that your noble man will be here soon. Please take care of him, Master Marquis!"
Seeing Tao Qing losing his temper, a man dressed as a butler walked out with a smile on his face.
Looking at that unfamiliar face, although Tao Qing was angry, his heart was full of curiosity.
He can be considered well-informed. All the utensils in this place, from furniture and ornaments to wine and tea utensils, are of ordinary quality, and many of them are used by the royal family in the palace.
In addition, when they picked him up today, the tokens held by those two people were all identity tokens in the palace.
He is really curious about the owner of this place now, and he doesn't know who the owner is!
As for the noble person over there, he was even more curious. Who is this noble person?
Although he has lost power now, he is still a marquis after all!
How dare they leave themselves here for so long, aren't they afraid that they will overthrow his lair?
"I hope you will still remember that although I am not famous, I can still be regarded as the Marquis of the Han Dynasty!"
Tao Qing gritted his teeth and said.
"Master Marquis, please be patient. My master promises that this noble man today will never disappoint you after you meet him!"
"I don't know what to call you?"
After much hesitation, he sat down again, and the two waiting women hurriedly gave Tao Qing new tea.
"Let the Marquis laugh. I am just a servant, and my nickname is not worth mentioning. The Marquis can just call me Hou San!"
Hou San had a mechanical smile on his face as he spoke, which really made Tao Qing lose his temper at all.
He is also well-informed. People like Hou San who speak and act impeccably are rare even in the homes of ordinary officials. Now he is even more curious about the person who invited him.
"If the Marquis feels bored, how about letting me have a chat with the Marquis?"
Looking at Tao Qing who was a little restless, Hou San smiled and pointed to a pair of Go games beside him.
"Can you also play chess?"
Tao Qing was a little surprised.
"Although I can't compare with the Marquis, I still know a little bit about it, so I can still relieve the Marquis' boredom!"
While Hou San was talking, the two serving maids had already set up the chessboard for them.
There was nothing else to do now, and Tao Qing didn't refuse. The two simply got into a stance and started fighting on the chessboard.
