Li Shui ordered the wine and food to be served. He looked at Zhang Liang, and the more he looked at him, the more comfortable he felt.
This is a big rebel, we can't let him go this time. If this person is left in Shangjun's courtyard, the rebels will no longer be able to recite the curse.
Li Shui was very satisfied with Xiang Yu: This guy is really a treasure. How did he collect these rebels?
After three rounds of drinking, no one spoke. Li Shui felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he asked without words, "Have you met Liu Ji?"
Zhang Liangliang was moved: "It is indeed Liu Ji."
He said respectfully: "I've seen it before."
Li Shui was slightly startled: "Have you seen it before? So early? This is a bit wrong, in my impression..."
Zhang Liang then complimented: "Liu Ji is handsome and brave. He is indeed a young hero."
Li Shui was even more puzzled: Young hero? Liu Ji should be a big boss by now, right? This guy's wording isn't very accurate.
Li Shui thought for a while and then said to Zhang Liang: "Is this Liu Ji thirsty for talents? Has he made any outrageous remarks to you?"
Zhang Liang frowned: "If you are thirsty for talents, that's not the case. He doesn't seem to want to talk to me."
Li Shui was a little surprised: This is even more wrong. Historically, wasn't Liu Ji extremely excited when he met Zhang Liang? Could it be that Sima Qian was talking nonsense again?
Zhang Liang complimented again: "It is true that Liu Ji is a hero, but such a hero has to work under the command of the banished immortal, which shows that the banished immortal is the real hero. Therefore, Zhang Liang recommended himself and asked the banished immortal not to dislike him and let me Serve at Shangjun Courtyard."
Li Shui was a little confused: What do you mean? Liu Ji is here with me? I do not know how?
Suddenly, Li Shui's heart moved and he remembered that Xiang Yu had always called himself Liu Ji.
Could it be that the so-called Liu Ji that Zhang Liang met was Xiang Yu?
Yes, weren't the two of them talking and laughing just now?
Li Shui couldn't help laughing when he thought of this.
When Zhang Liang saw Li Shui smiling, he also smiled honestly: "So, do you agree to banish the immortal?"
Li Shui glanced at Zhang Liang and thought: Why does this man suddenly want to join Shangjun Courtyard? If you came here to seek refuge with me, why did you go to see Xiang Yu first?
This matter is a bit strange.
History books say that Zhang Liang once sold his property and found a strong man to assassinate Qin Shihuang. I don’t know if the money has been spent.
Thinking of Zhang Liang's family property, Li Shui felt a little itchy.
Alas, it is really a sin to not be able to use so much money to benefit the people.
So Li Shui said seriously: "If you want to work in my Shangjun Courtyard, that's fine, but I have some tests. If you can pass the test, then everything will be easy. If you can't pass, then there will be no need to discuss anything."
Zhang Liang said respectfully: "Although it is a test to banish an immortal, Zhang Liang will never complain."
Li Shui nodded with satisfaction.
He and Zhang Liang chatted a few more words and then let Zhang Liang go.
Of course, Li Shui did not let Zhang Liang go home directly. Instead, he asked him to visit Shangjun Courtyard and see the rare things here before leaving. After all... he spent 100,000 yuan to come here.
When Zhang Liang first came in, he was deceived everywhere and defrauded of money from time to time.
After talking to Li Shui, the craftsmen in Shangjun Courtyard became much more polite to him.
He was also visiting Shangjun Courtyard, and now he actually had a special guide.
This guide Zhang Liang had also seen him before, and it was exactly the dog with a snotty nose.
Gou Sheng is young and clever, giving people an impression of innocence and cuteness. Although he is cunning, he does not have any scheming impression.
Gou Sheng took Zhang Liang to visit the printing factory.
The craftsmen were printing books one after another with movable type. Zhang Liang was filled with emotion as he saw the words of the ancient sages being produced like flowing water.
He kept nodding: "The ancients had many opinions, but most of them have been lost. The reason is that writing is expensive, so it is difficult to spread. Often there is only a bundle of bamboo slips. If the bamboo slips are lost, the text is completely lost."
"It's good now. With the immortal paper invented by Ban Xian and printing technology, these words can be preserved."
Gou Sheng smiled and took Zhang Liang to visit the iron casting, copper smelting, coal, and other workshops.
Finally, I showed him the gramophone and camera.
Zhang Liang was shocked and repeatedly said that this was definitely magic.
Now he yearns for Shangjun Courtyard even more.
Seeing Zhang Liangliang's emotions surged with excitement. Gou Sheng asked casually: "Why do I see that you and Lord Banished Immortal seem to hit it off immediately? Do you know each other?"
Zhang Liang smiled slightly and said proudly: "I did have a relationship with the banished immortal once. Now the banished immortal pretends not to know me, and I can't tell him the truth, so I have to accompany him to act in a play."
Gou Sheng immediately made a look of admiration: "I didn't expect you and the banished immortal to have such a fate?"
Zhang Liang said proudly: "That's natural."
Gou Sheng jumped up and said, "Can you tell me about it?"
Zhang Liang said: "I can't reveal too much about the identity of the banished immortal. I can only say that that day, the banished immortal transformed into an old man. He once asked me to help him walk on the bridge."
"At that time, I thought, this is simply too insulting. I originally wanted to walk away. But looking at the extraordinary temperament of the banished immortal, there is a faint aura that is convincing. He is clearly an expert from this world."
"So I bowed my head and accepted the shoes, and I passed the test of being banished to the immortal. The banished immortal gave me a book of heaven, called..."
Having said this, Zhang Liang smiled slightly: "I won't talk about the rest."
"In short, although the appearance of the banished immortal has changed, his earth-shattering abilities have not changed, and his habit of testing people has not changed. I can recognize him at a glance."
Gou Sheng said, "That's it."
He said to Zhang Liang: "I have some abdominal pain, please wait for me." Then Gou Sheng quickly entered the toilet.
Zhang Liang had to wait outside.
Gou Sheng didn't go to the toilet at all, he jumped out from the back wall and quickly found Li Shui.
Li Shui asked: "How? You can ask, why does he want to join our Shangjun Courtyard?"
Gou Sheng said: "I guess I found out. He said that the banished immortal was his old friend. He once transformed into an old man and taught him the heavenly book."
Li Xin, who was drinking, spit out a glass of wine. He coughed repeatedly and laughed loudly: "Brother Huai, is this the genius you mentioned? I don't think he is very bright."
Li Shui coughed dryly: "This is understandable. The more people like Shen Shen Nao Nao, the more likely they will be deceived by Shen Shen Nao Nao's things."
He asked Gou Sheng, "What else did Zhang Liang say?"
Gou Sheng said: "He said that the old man who was banished to immortality once tested him and asked him to walk on the bridge."
When Li Shui heard this, he immediately understood: It seems that he regarded me as Huang Shigong.
Huang Shigong is unpredictable, like a fairy or a demon. And he is also known as an immortal. Not only did he invent many magical things, but he also revealed the origin of Zhang Liang.
No wonder Zhang Lianghui looked so adoring. It turns out that there is this origin in it.
Gou Sheng and Li Shui chatted for a while. Li Shui was very satisfied and took out a string of Qin Banliang and stuffed it into Gou Sheng's hand.
The dog was so happy that he ran away jumping up and down.
As a craftsman from Shangjun Courtyard, their family was not short of money, but all the money was taken away by Gou Sheng's parents, under the pretext that it would be used to marry him in the future.
Therefore, the dog does not have much pocket money left. I still drool when I see vendors selling snacks.
Gou Sheng happily hid the string of Qin Banliang given by the banished immortal today.
After leaving Li Shui's room, Gou Sheng couldn't wait to arrive at the door of Shang Jun's courtyard.
There are some vendors setting up stalls selling things here all year round, and Gou Sheng has had enough shopping today. I tasted all the things that I couldn’t usually afford and couldn’t bear to eat.
Until Gou Sheng's parents came to the door, dragged him back to Shangjun Courtyard by his ears, beat him up, and took away the remaining money.
Gou Sheng sat at home and cried for a long time, wiping his tears, and suddenly felt that he had forgotten something.
He sat at the door and thought for a while, then suddenly slapped his forehead: "I forgot about Zhang Liang."
Panting, Gou Sheng ran to the back wall of the toilet, climbed over the wall, and then came out through the front door.
Zhang Liangzheng stood at the door with a tired look on his face and saw the dog come out, as if he were seeing a relative.
Zhang Liang said with emotion: "Why have you been gone for so long? It's been almost two hours."
Gou Sheng sighed: "My stomach has been a little bad lately."
While talking, Gou Sheng burped.
I ate too much at the food stall outside just now.
Zhang Liang: "...Shang Jun's Villa is really unbelievable."
Gou Sheng took Zhang Liang for a quick browse, and then said to him, "That's it for today. Let's talk about it another day."
Gou Sheng turned around and wanted to slip away, but Zhang Liang stopped him: "The Exalted Immortal said he wanted to test me. Do you know what the content of this test is?"
Gou Sheng thought for a while and said, "It's just a test of sincerity. If you are aboveboard, you can pass it."
While Zhang Liang was deep in thought, Gou Sheng had already disappeared.
…………
"Exiled Immortal, have you passed the examination?" Zhao Tuo, who was in ragged clothes in the small courtyard, said with a dry smile.
When he went to court today, Zhao Tuo followed Feng Renji's instructions and asked Li Si for one hundred yi gold at the entrance of the Yizheng Hall in front of the civil and military officials of the court.
After the court today, Li Si borrowed money and ordered his servants to deliver it.
The last time he bought a sword, Li Si had gone bankrupt and owed 20 million yuan in foreign debt. Now the one hundred yi gold is all borrowed money.
But Li Si was not in a hurry. He completely regarded Zhao Tuo as his own treasury. The money was just put away in Zhao Tuo's home for a while, and he would get it back when the time came.
After Zhao Tuo received one hundred yi gold, without any delay, he immediately changed his clothes and came to deliver the gold to Lishui.
He was a little proud that he had made Li Si look bad in public. This could be regarded as a job well done.
Li Shui took the gold without ceremony. Then he frowned and said: "One hundred yi of gold is not a small amount, but it is not too big either. What if you colluded with Li Si and put on a play... then the capital of one hundred yi is not considered a big sum. There are so many.”
Zhao Tuo immediately wanted to swear.
Li Shui waved his hand and said to him: "You don't need to swear, just do something to prove yourself."
Zhao Tuo was a little nervous: "Do you still have to prove yourself?"
He was a little scared.
Although fire is fun, it can easily burn you if you play with it too much.
Li Shui raised his eyebrows: "What? You don't want to?"
Zhao Tuo laughed dryly and said: "Yes, why not? The general is sincere in his work to banish the immortal. Of course he is willing to prove himself."
Li Shui hummed: "I heard that Li Si is not young anymore?"
Zhao Tuo responded: "Yes."
Li Shui sighed: "At such an old age and still having a romantic relationship, it is easy for something to happen. Li Si is the pillar of my court. If anything happens to him, it will be Great Qin's loss."
Zhao Tuo was frightened when he heard this: "The meaning of banishing the immortal is..."
Li Shui said: "I heard that he just bought two beautiful women? Alas, this shouldn't happen at such an old age. He also has to take good care of his body."
Zhao Tuo's heart trembled: Wouldn't he be banishing the immortal to...
No matter what he was afraid of, Li Shui said with a smile: "How about you go and take these two women away?"
Zhao Tuo almost fainted.
First I want money, then I want people, this...
But he gritted his teeth and agreed.
If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cubs? There is no room for bargaining here.
After leaving Shangjun Courtyard, Zhao Tuo thought about it and felt that Feng Renji's analysis that day was correct. Now Li Si is trying to win over him. Even if he has some excessive demands now, he will not refuse.
Take advantage of now and complete the test of banishing the immortal as soon as possible. The longer you delay, the more complicated things will become.
So Zhao Tuo changed his clothes and went straight to Li Si's house.
Coincidentally, Li Si was giving a banquet. It was really a packed house today.
Zhao Tuo took a deep breath, not knowing whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
In the middle of the banquet, Li Si said with a smile: "I recently got two new beauties. How about letting them come out and dance a song?"
Everyone clapped their hands and cheered.
Beauty, at night, must be used by the master. During the day, it needs to be shown off as an item. They will even give rewards to those close to them.
Zhao Tuo drank in silence and thought: After a while, I will say that I have fallen in love with these two people and ask Li Si for a reward.
After Zhao Tuo made up his mind, he poured himself a few glasses of wine to gain courage.
He had to be brave. After all...throughout the ages, beauty has only been given as a gift. It would be rude if you asked for it. Besides, asking for it from the superior is simply insulting.
I hope Li Si can endure it.
Soon, two beauties came up.
These two people are indeed as beautiful as flowers and jade, which is a pleasure to watch.
Li Si was even more proud.
In the past, when I couldn't even decide on my own concubine, how could I think about buying any beauties? Since drinking the herbal tea, the effect has been very good, and Li Si has become more and more confident.
These two beauties are gentle, gentle and very pleasant. These days, Li Si is in Wenrou Township every day. He is so happy that he doesn’t want to leave for a moment...
Li Si looked at the envious eyes of the courtiers and felt very proud.
Suddenly, Zhao Tuo stood up.
He saluted Li Si and said with a red face: "Master Tingwei, please grant your permission, Master Tingwei."
Li Si's heart tightened: What is accomplished? Could this beast be thinking...
