"If Brother Li is willing to be a rich and idle man for the rest of his life, then what can I do!" Liu Qi said with a smile: "I can only blame myself for being blind and seeing the wrong person!"
Li Jingye opened his mouth, but was speechless. After a moment, he forced a smile and said, "You will never misjudge the person!"
Watching Li Jingye's back disappear at the end of the corridor, Liu Qi shook his head and walked outside. Just after passing the corner, a person came over, it was Liu Weili.
"What do you think of Li Jingye?"
"We are not from the same group!" Liu Qidao: "So I try to let him know as little as possible!"
"So, he is a guy with a false reputation? Is it nonsense for the world to call him a hero of the world?"
"No, he is indeed a rare hero and very ambitious. But he just wants to use our power to change the status quo and realize his ambitions, and then -" At this point, Liu Qi made a beheading gesture .
"I understand!" Liu Weili nodded: "I think you are right. The more he knows, the greater the possibility of betraying us!"
"That's right!" Liu Qi nodded: "Even if he wants to report us now, he has nothing to report on. By the way, has this guy done something recently? He seems to be very short of money! But according to him With your family background, you shouldn’t be short of money?”
"This is not surprising!" Liu Weili laughed: "In the British days, the family was governed by military law. All Li Jingye could use was his room. Although it was a lot, it couldn't stop him from spending money like water. A few days ago In the polo match in the womb, he bet heavily on the Donggong team, but he didn't want the two sides to draw, and no matter which side he bet on to win, he would lose completely."
"So that's what happened!" Liu Qi laughed: "God really wants him to lose. By the way, have you arranged for someone to keep an eye on Wu Xiaoyi? He is the key. If he goes to the government, it will be troublesome. Very good!"
"People have been arranged to keep an eye on it!" Liu Weili said with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to worry about Xiao Yi. His whole family was wiped out by Empress Wu. If there is a chance to take such a big revenge, how could he take the lead?"
"You still have to be careful. All the hard work I have put in over the years will be ruined if I am not careful!" Liu Qisurong said: "Also, if you spread the news, there will be less rain in winter and spring. Not only will the harvest in Guanzhong be poor, but also the harvest in Guanzhong will be poor. The rivers have dried up, and less food is being transported from Luoyang to Guanzhong. In order to resist the Tibetans and reduce food consumption in Guanzhong, the imperial court wants to recruit 30,000 evil young men from Chang'an to join the army!"
"Ah? Where did this news come from?" Liu Weili was shocked: "How come I haven't heard anything about such a big event?"
"I heard it right here, in that place just now!" Liu Qi pointed to the place where the few people were chatting just now: "I heard it from three idle men!"
"Ah?" Liu Weili couldn't laugh or cry: "Aren't you kidding? Can the nonsense of a few idle men be taken seriously? What can't you hear at the gate of the West Market?"
"Of course I know this is not true, but didn't you believe it just now?" Liu Qi said with a smile: "Don't you think this news is very true?"
"That's true!" Liu Weili nodded. Except for the last sentence that the court wanted to recruit evil young men to join the army, the rest of the news was true. Moreover, there was a precedent for the court to do this. The false ones sounded more real than the true ones. Moreover, even if the government refutes the rumor, it will be considered as an attempt to calm the situation and will not doubt the authenticity of the news. ...."Let's do it like this, add a handful of dry wood to the fire!" Liu Qi said with a smile: "Heat the water a little more."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away!" Liu Weili responded and left quickly.

Pingkangfang.
Wu Xiaoyi walked into the square gate, passed by Bodhi Temple and Wan'an Temple, and stopped in front of a somewhat dilapidated mansion.
Twenty-five years before the events we describe, the residence of Zuopu Shechu Suiliang, the minister who served as Tuogu minister with Changsun Wuji, was recognized by everyone as one of the most elegant and beautiful residences in Chang'an. In the previous life of this house, there was a gorgeous gate, and the horizontal plaque on the door was the imperial pen of Emperor Taizong: "Minister of Gughu". When the emperor came to the throne, another imperial pen was given. Of course, now the mansion has long changed its owner. Naturally, the imperial pen no longer exists.
Due to the light snowfall, there were few people on the street, so Wu Xiaoyi stood out there. The doorman on duty saw this and walked over. Seeing this, Wu Xiaoyi hurriedly turned around and walked forward. Seeing that Xiaoyi was gone, the male servant didn't bother to catch up and ask, so he shook his head and went back.
Different from other squares near the imperial city, in addition to dignitaries, there are also some less respectable residents in Pingkang Square. There are three alleys in this square from the north gate to the east along the square wall, which Chang'an people call It is called Nanqu, Zhongqu and Beiqu. All the Lehu prostitutes lived here. It is said that famous prostitutes in Chang'an such as Yan Lingbin, Wang Susu, Zheng Juju, Yang Miao'er and Wang Tuan'er once lived here. It can be said to be the "gathering place of romance" in Chang'an. .
Because it was still early, the doors on both sides of the street were basically not open, and the street looked a little deserted. Wu Xiaoyi was walking on the empty street, and familiar scenes flashed before his eyes. He could not help but recall the interesting things from his youth, and a smile appeared on his originally stern face.
At this time, the door of a small courtyard by the road was pushed open, and a maid carrying a red lacquered toilet came out. While beating Ha Qie, she walked towards the street and happened to bump into Wu Xiaoyi. She was about to curse, but she found The person in front of me looked very familiar, and when I looked at it again, my anger turned into joy: "Isn't this Brother Xiao Yi? How long have we not seen you? Come, come, come! Come and sit in the room!"
"I have something else to do, I'll come visit you next time!" Wu Xiaoyi quickly declined.
"Next time, when is the next time? I don't know how happy I will be to know that you are back!" After saying that, she didn't want the toilet bowl, grabbed Wu Xiaoyi's arm and dragged her into the courtyard, shouting into the courtyard Said: "Xiao Niang, Xiao Niang, Brother Xiao Yi is back!"
"Xiao Yi is back?" There was a sudden movement in the house, and soon the window was pushed open, revealing a pretty face. Her eyes lit up when she saw Wu Xiaoyi: "My friend, you are finally back, why are you standing outside? Quick, get in the house, it’s cold outside, Xiaoju, prepare some soup and snacks!”
While Wu Xiaoyi was entangled with the maid, another woman came out from the door. She was the same woman who was looking out of the window just now. She rushed to Wu Xiaoyi's side, grabbed his other arm, and said angrily. Said: "You haven't come to see me for so long, you must have forgotten Juju!" It turns out that she is Zheng Juju, a famous prostitute in Chang'an.
"How can there be such a thing?" Wu Xiaoyi looked embarrassed: "I'm just busy all the time and can't spare time!"
