Li Qiniang can't swim, so she only dares to stick to the edge of the pool and simply take a dip. With such a big pool, Li Qiniang can enjoy it alone, which can be regarded as a special mood again.

It's just that, after all, she is a yellow flower girl, and when she first arrived in a strange place, she took off her essence in such an empty pool, and the burning sensation on the root of her ears has never dissipated.

Maybe it was the first time to soak in the pool like this, Li Qiniang soaked in warm water, the more she soaked, the more she wanted to soak, and after a long time, her delicate body bones were soaked, and she didn't want to get up at all.

The problem is that Ziyue was also soaked in soft bones, and she completely forgot about Li Qiniang.

Fortunately, Yueji had been waiting by the side, and when she saw that the situation was not good, she hurriedly asked someone to scoop it up from the pool water and put it on the chaise longue covered with dry linen towels.

Inside the pool, filled with steam and a faint smell of sulfur, Li Qiniang leaned on the chaise longue, only put a thick linen towel on her abdomen, and was extremely lazy with five maids knocking her legs, massaging, and loosening her hands and feet, extremely happy!

is different from her father Li Hu, who is old and coarse, Li Qiniang has been familiar with poetry and books since she was a child, and she is especially good at playing the piano.

Li Qiniang closed her eyes slightly, closed her eyes and recuperated, and a strange thought suddenly flashed in her mind: I think that back then, Tang Xuanzong and Yang Guifei bathed together in Huaqing Pool, was it just a bath?

The heart of gossip is actually not divided into men and women, but the degree is different.

As long as Li Qiniang thought that it was very likely to share the same bed with Li Zhongyi, she panicked in her heart.

Just now, Li Qiniang thought that Li Zhongyi would take advantage of her to strip naked and soak in the water and touch the thing. Who would have thought that Li Zhongyi, who has a reputation for being lustful, unexpectedly did not come.

Li Qiniang recovered some physical strength a little, and was taken to the sauna by Yueji, and after steaming hard, the pores on her body were happily opened, except for the abnormal suffocation.

After steaming, Li Qiniang soaked in the pool again, and the maids washed every pore on her body for her.

When Li Qiniang lay back on the chaise longue, the fatigue of the journey was swept away, she was so comfortable that she wanted to hum, and she made up her mind in private that she would come to soak once a day.

After Yueji softly passed the service project, Li Qiniang turned over casually, and a little girl with some strength gently massaged her back.

Just when Li Qiniang was enjoying it, Li Zhongyi stood at the door of the inner study to greet the mysterious guests from Kaifeng City.

"In Xia Sun Chengdong, meet Li Xianggong."

Li Zhongyi squinted at Sun Chengdong and said with a friendly smile: "Hurry up and excuse me, I have been friends with your marquis for many years, so I don't have to see each other like this." ”

Sun Chengdong is the confidant of Hou Liu Dexian of Qinghe County, Liu Dexian has a close personal relationship with Wang Zhongpeng, the Marquis of Xuchang, and Wang Zhongpeng's eldest son Wang Xuehan was dismissed from the post of deputy governor of the fourth class of the inner temple straight Xiaodi a few years ago.

Li Zhongyi took Sun Chengdong's hand affectionately and led him into the inner study, the guests and hosts sat down separately, and the maid quietly served tea.

In the past, Li Zhongyi had very shallow qualifications, but he was in a high position, and he was neither liked by the Wenchen Group, nor could he smoothly integrate into the meritorious and noble military generals group.

On weekdays, there are only a few scattered marquis who have no real power, and they have some salty and indifferent interactions with Li Zhongyi. Among them, Li Zhongyi pays more attention to Hou Liu Dexian of Qinghe County, the main reason is that this Hou Liu is not only very good at talking, but also has a unique skill that ordinary people can't match: he is very good at raising pigeons.

The army of the Great Zhou Dynasty also had carrier pigeons, but due to the small number, they were generally only used for communication between each other when the multiple armies were marching together.

Liu Dexian is really like his name, since he was pulled off the throne by his younger brother after he was left from the throne of the Jiedu envoy, he simply came to live in Kaifeng City, opened a few shops, and the business was also booming.

According to Liu Dexian, the pigeon is not too difficult to train, but sometimes, if there are more iron tools near the pigeon nest, the pigeon is easy to get lost.

How to raise pigeons, Li Zhongyi really doesn't know anything, but he knows a little bit about the principle of pigeon recognition.

The pigeon recognized its way home mainly by a special organ on the beak with magnetic field lines, which interfered with the pigeon's identification system due to the lack of ironmaking technology in this era, and the magnetic nature of multi-iron tools.

Of course, Li Zhongyi understands in his heart that it is one thing, but he will not explain such an advanced and complex principle to Liu Dexian.

Because, Li Zhongyi doesn't understand what the principle of magnetic field lines is, not only is it not clear to explain, but it is easy to make people suspicious.

Li Zhongyi has a good impression of Liu Dexian, mainly because this guy, after losing his position, can actually endure idleness, although he is not particularly wealthy, he also lives a chic and comfortable life.

From being about to become a festival envoy, he has become a loose marquis with only a false title, but he has not many complaints, just in terms of his broad-mindedness, Liu Dexian is worth communicating.

The main reason is that with Li Zhongyi's more sensitive identity, he has had close contacts with important ministers of the DPRK and the central government on the surface, which is obviously very inappropriate.

I think that at the beginning, this Liu Dexian's title was comparable to Li Zhongyi, not only a little money, but also very leisurely, no matter how close Li Zhongyi was to him, it would not attract Chai Rong's suspicion, and it was very worth handing.

After so many years of communication, among Li Zhongyi's army, the pigeons used for long-distance contact are all high-quality raised by Liu Dexian himself, and this relationship cannot be overemphasized.

All in all, Li Zhongyi can trust Liu Dexian, so he will hand over such an important military pigeon to Liu Dexian to be fully responsible.

As for the situation of Wang Zhongpeng, the Marquis of Xuchang, it is very different from Liu Dexian. After Chai Rong sat on the throne, he deliberately suppressed the old army leader and supported the new army leader, and Wang Zhongpeng lost the military power at hand.

However, in order to compensate for Wang Zhongpeng's loss, Chai Rong promoted Wang Zhongpeng's eldest son Wang Xuehan to the deputy of the real power of the guard with a knife in close quarters.

Who would have thought that soon after Fan Zhen established the new Inquisitor West Court with the support of Empress Dowager Fu, Wang Xuehan, who belonged to the military general system, was actually stripped of his real position and became an idle earl.

Li Zhongyi and the Wang family have a relationship, in fact, it is not complicated, when Li Zhongyi's second brother Li Zhonghao first entered the Guozijian to study, Wang Xuehan's younger brother Wang Xuezhang was a classmate with Li Zhonghao.

The power position of the imperial court has always been a radish and a pit, and if you occupy one more position, others will have one less position. Official positions are always limited, but the people who have huge interests behind official positions are always the majority.

Wang Zhongpeng, who originally had some expectations for the imperial court, has been unusually unhappy since his eldest son was dismissed.

Originally, Wang Zhongpeng and the guards and pro-military divisions both commanded Han Tong to make friends, and they wanted to use his power to find a good errand for Wang Xuehan. Unexpectedly, Han Tong didn't give face at all, and refused directly in person.

In this way, Wang Zhongpeng, who was forced to be anxious, moved the mind of secretly contacting Li Zhongyi, and Hou Liu Dexian of Qinghe County became a middleman because of his small target.

Before he got the world, Li Zhongyi's strategy has always been to unite all the forces that can be united, and strive to promote a better future together.

Therefore, for Wang Zhongpeng's initiative to get closer, Li Zhongyi naturally welcomed it, and his attitude was extremely sincere.

Sun Chengdong took a few sips of tea, and exchanged pleasantries with Li Zhongyi for a while, then he took out a thick letter from his cuffs and handed it to Li Zhongyi with both hands, "This is a handwritten letter written by my lord, please take a look." ”

Li Zhongyi narrowed his eyes, glanced at the letter, and when he received it, he gently rested it on the table and did not open the envelope to read the letter.

Sun Chengdong was originally a smart person, and as soon as he saw Li Zhongyi's movements, he knew what Li Zhongyi wanted to know, so he explained with a smile: "To tell you the truth, unlike last time, only a few lords were willing to take refuge here, in view of your growing prestige, there are now more than 30 scattered lords, who are very happy to serve you." ”

Li Zhongyi nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Yuangong is really hard, I have ordered someone to prepare a few Goryeo ginseng plants that are more than two hundred years old, when Mr. Sun returns, please be sure to bring Yuangong." ”

Sun Chengdong hurriedly got up and threw himself to the ground, and said respectfully: "Thank you Li Xianggong for your generous gift, and I will definitely bring your words to the contempt in person." ”

Li Zhongyi saw Sun Chengdong's calm posture, he smiled slightly, as the saying goes, who gets up early if it is not profitable?

Although this Sun Chengdong was ordered by Liu Dexian, he risked losing his head anytime and anywhere and came to see him with a confidential letter, so he wouldn't be treated badly, right?

"I wonder if Mr. has a reputation?" Li Zhongyi asked so obviously that Sun Chengdong couldn't help but feel a joy in his heart.

In fact, Sun Chengdong has been by Liu Dexian's side for nearly 20 years, and he doesn't dare to say that he knows the big picture in Kaifeng City and even the entire court, at least he knows it.

At this time when the lord and the country are suspicious, seeing that careerists from all walks of life are about to move, it is obvious that there will be earth-shattering changes.

Everyone's future situation is actually inextricably linked to his difficult choices earlier. Long-term investment, and temporary income, obviously cannot be the same.

There is gambling everywhere in life, and if you bet right, you will rise to the top and soar from now on! If you make a mistake, you can only be willing to gamble and lose, and let the winner slaughter.

Based on his past friendships, Liu Dexian completely chose to take refuge in Li Zhongyi very early, and Sun Chengdong, a confidant, had no choice, so he could only bite the bullet and follow Liu Dexian into the pit and fight for his life.

Fortunately, after so many years of rapid development, Li Zhongyi has become the leading strong domain in the Great Zhou, and the hope of success in the Central Plains has become bigger and bigger.

"Alas, I am extremely ashamed to fail in repeated attempts, only through the understanding test." Sun Chengdong's tactful statement full of negative emotions reminded Li Zhongyi of a big problem: the imperial examination without vague names and transcription of examination papers has long been full of diseases, and there are many evils.

PS: The code is very smooth, it looks like it will exceed 12,000 big changes, and the monthly pass is encouraged!
