Cui Gengdao: "In Chang'an City? Where is the place? โ€

Cao Tianjiao did not answer directly, but said: "The most beautiful person in Chang'an City recently, do you know who it is?" โ€

"Who?"

"Zhou Renliang, he now has at least twenty carts of white sand at home, isn't it enough for you?"

Of course Cui Geng knows this person Zhou Renliang.

More than 20 years ago, when Li Xian first ascended the throne, he wanted to promote his father-in-law Wei Xuanzhen to Shizhong (the head of Menxia Province and one of the prime ministers).

At this time, Prime Minister Pei Yan didn't do it, and said that you can get a little bit, it turns out that Wei Xuanzhen is just a small Puzhou to join the army, with a rank of seven grades. As soon as you ascended the throne, you made him the assassin of Yuzhou, and he was the fourth product. Well, it's not been March yet, and it's too unruly for you to make him prime minister again.

As a result, Li Xian said the sentence that has been passed down through the ages: "I think the world and Wei Xuanzhen, why not?" And cherish the evil in the middle!"

With just such a sentence, they were caught, Wu Zetian and Pei Yan joined forces to oust Li Xian from the throne, and Wei Xuanzhen's family was also exiled to Qinzhou on the coast of the South China Sea.

It was a plague land, with few Han people and many bureaucrats, and the rule of the imperial court was very unstable, and it was only stronger than the confined area.

After the family arrived in Qinzhou, Wei Xuanzhen soon died of illness. The dilapidated house was even more affected by the overnight rain, and his two daughters were taken by the local chieftain Ning Cheng brothers, and they wanted to be taken as concubines.

Wei Xuanzhen's wife Cui resolutely refused to allow it, and was killed by Ning Cheng's brothers. Also killed at the same time were Wei Xuanzhen's four sons: Wei Xun, Wei Hao, Wei Dong and Wei, and only two daughters escaped under their cover.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Wei family was destroyed by the Ning Cheng brothers.

A few days after the Shenlong coup, Li Xian issued an order to order Zhou Renliang, the governor of Guangzhou, to lead 20,000 troops to avenge Wei Xuanzhen's family.

After Zhou Renliang arrived in Qinzhou, he slaughtered the local sultry tribes, and the Ning Cheng brothers went into exile at sea.

Then, Zhou Renliang personally led the troops to escort the coffin of Wei Xuanzhen's family to Chang'an City. Empress Wei ascended the Changle Palace, wept in mourning, and asked Li Xian to crown Zhou Renliang as the general of the Zhenguo, the ambassador of the five prefectures, and the prince of Runan County.

Not only that, but she also personally summoned Zhou Renliang and treated him with fatherly courtesy through the curtain.

Okay, when the new father of the dynasty, can it not be beautiful?

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhou Renliang is the most beautiful person in Chang'an now.

Cui Geng said strangely: "Qinzhou is on the coast of the South China Sea, and it is not strange that there is white sand. But Zhou Renliang escorted Wei Xuanzhen's family's coffin back to Beijing, what did he do with so much white sand? โ€

Cao Tianjiao said: "At the beginning, Wei Xuanzhen's second daughter Wei He and third daughter Wei Lan lived in Qinzhou for a period of time, and they were particularly impressed by the local white sand beach. Now I heard that Zhou Renliang was coming to Chang'an, so I asked Zhou Renliang to bring some white sand. โ€

"I see!"

Hearing this, I instantly understood Doufu in seconds!

Now the nobles of Chang'an are competing for luxury, for example, Li Bao'er built Dingkun Pond, and Princess Changning built the largest mansion in Chang'an. The rest of the nobles did not show weakness and decorated their mansions in different ways.

Sand is common, and white sand is not worth much. But, alas, Chang'an didn't.

This is to make such a snow-white sand beach by the lake of your own house. If someone else doesn't have it, they have it in their own family, so how much more can it be done?

Cui Geng said: "I'll go to Zhou Renliang's mansion...... Eh, no, Zhou Renliang brought white sand to Wei He and Wei Lan, why didn't he give it to them immediately? โ€

"One is that Zhou Renliang has just entered Beijing, and he hasn't had time yet. One more ...... What does it mean to have a bare white sand beach? These two are repairing the house, and after the house is repaired, they will bring the white sand over to repair the beach. โ€

"That's ......" Cui Geng was still a little strange, and said: "I said Uncle Cao, how do you know so clearly about Zhou Renliang?" โ€

"That's the case, Zhou Renliang was named the general of the Zhenguo, the ambassador of the five prefectures, and the prince of Runan County, which is considered a big promotion, and he has to hold a roasted tail banquet."

Suddenly, Cao Tianjiao was silent.

Of course, Cui Geng knew about the "Burning Tail Banquet".

This is a custom at this time, when it is said that when a tiger becomes a human, its tail must be burned; Second, when sheep enter the new flock, they must burn the old tail before they are accepted; The three said that the carp jumped over the dragon gate, and the fish tail was burned by the heavenly fire before it could turn into a real dragon

All in all, after the official is promoted, he has to have a big feast, not only to entertain colleagues and nobles, but also to send a copy to the palace for His Majesty the Emperor to taste.

"And then?" he asked. โ€

"The people with heads and faces in Chang'an are all invited. But ......"

Cao Tianjiao stopped talking again, and looked at Cao Yuechan with some weakness.

Cui Gengdao: "What's wrong? Don't sell your old man! โ€

Cao Tianjiao swallowed and foamed, "I want to go, but it's Yuechan who is invited, not me." As for Yuechan, she didn't want to go. Can't I convince Yuechan about this? So, I know a little more. โ€

"Dad, why don't you avoid the important and take it lightly?" Cao Yuechan said: "Erlang, don't listen to him. With my father's net worth, is it possible that there is still a lack of such a meal? The reason why he wanted to go to the roasted tail banquet was because of the jade exquisiteness. โ€

"Who is Jade Linglong?"

Cao Tianjiao was not happy when he heard this, and said: "I said Erlang, they are all a family, can you be honest?" Yu Linglong, that is now the first prostitute in Chang'an. People are proficient in poetry and songs, and they can be called national players in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the most important thing is that body and appearance...... Child...... Eh, Yuechan, what are you doing twisting me? โ€

"Dad, do you still have the face to say?" Cao Yuechan was dissatisfied: "It's just that you and Cao Hao both like to mess with flowers and grass, and they both chase this jade Linglong, you are not ashamed, I am still ashamed?!" โ€

"I don't want to talk to her about anything, I appreciate it, I appreciate it, can't I?"

"Do you believe this?"

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Okay, this father and daughter actually pinched up.

Cui Geng heard the ins and outs of this matter, but his heart moved. I want to bring over the white sand of Zhou Ren's rail, and it is not difficult to say that it is not easy to say.

The point is, the ownership of this thing is unknown, do you think he is Zhou Renliang's? Or is it Weho's or Weyland's?

In addition, the relationship between himself and the Wei family seems to be friend and foe, neither friend nor foe, plus Li Longji is eyeing him from the side. If you speak rashly, there are too many unpredictable factors.

Now the opportunity has come, Zhou Renliang's roasted tail banquet, Wei He and Wei Lan will participate. If you can act at this banquet, when the atmosphere is relaxed, can you ask for Baishazi?

Thinking of this, Cui Geng persuaded: "Don't quarrel with the two of you, isn't it just a tail-burning feast?" I'll take you! โ€

Cao Tianjiao smiled happily and said, "I'll just say, the charm of jade is unmatched." Erlang, you must also ......"

Cui Geng stretched out his hand and grabbed Cao Yuechan, who had a frosty face beside him, and interrupted: "You can think wrong, I took you there, not for Yu Linglong, but for your old man's happiness." โ€

"Pull it down, this excuse ......"

"What an excuse! This time I will not only take you there, but also Yuechan. โ€

Cao Yuechan turned her anger into joy in an instant, leaned on Cui Geng, and said, "I know that Erlang has the most conscience." โ€
