Chapter 173: thief of sweet potatoes
?? Cui Yingying was excited about getting a new Bichon Frize, and kept playing with the puppy. Li Yin picked up another Bichon Frize and went out to the east.
After two squares, Li Yin arrived at Su More'er's residence. The courtyard was not big, with three houses in total. Apart from the main hall for receiving guests, there were side rooms on both sides. The old locust tree covered half of the courtyard, and a white stone table was placed under the old locust tree. At this time, Su Moer was sitting under the locust tree and reading a book quietly, and the golden sunlight shone through the gap between the locust trees. Reflected on Su More'er's face, it was as if her skin was emitting radiance, adding a touch of beauty to her.
?? "Wow, woof..." The bichon frize in Li Yin's arms suddenly barked a few times, breaking the rare peaceful scene. Su Mo'er was startled, and looked up to see that she was standing at the door in a daze, with a gentle smile on her face.
"Your Highness, please come in!" Su Mo'er's voice came from afar, followed by a "squeak", the side room was pushed open, Su Xiaoyan's small head stuck out of the door, and when he saw Li Yin, it was like a flame He rushed out and happily ran to Li Yin.
??Su Mo'er had nothing to do with this younger sister, so she looked at Li Yin apologetically, and Li Yin smiled sassyly, not taking it seriously at all.
?? "Your Highness...what is this...?" Looking curiously at the things in Li Yin's arms, Su Xiaoyan spoke, but very stiffly.
?? It was the first time Li Yin heard Su Xiaoyan speak, and said, "She can finally speak."
?? "I have to thank Elder Sun, if it wasn't for her, Xiaoyan wouldn't be able to speak so quickly." Su Moer said.
?? "So that's it, this is good!" Li Yin lowered his head and said, "This is called a bichon frize. It's a puppy. I bought two. One is for the princess, and this one is for you."
Su Mo'er glanced at the Bichon Frize, and she also liked it very much. After Su Xiaoyan heard that it was a puppy, she boldly hugged it. Su Mo'er reached out and touched the Bichon Frize, her face turned red. After thinking about it for a long time, I gave Cui Yingying one of the two Bichon Frize dogs. The other one was given to her. Is Li Yin implying something?
?? "Thank you, Your Highness, Mo'er likes it very much!" Su Mo'er's eyes suddenly became very bright.
?? Li Yin's heart suddenly moved. Speaking of which, he knew Su More'er much earlier than Cui Yingying, and he didn't understand Su More'er's thoughts. Today, Li Yin deeply understands that this is the Tang Dynasty. Wouldn't it be too miserable to live here with hands tied?
?? Taking a deep breath, Li Yan stretched out his hand and placed it on Su Mo'er's hand on the bichon frize's head, "Don't say thank you, I owe you too much."
?? Warm temperature came from Li Yin's hand. Hearing Li Yin's gentle words, Su Mo'er's nose turned sore, two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks, and she couldn't help throwing herself into Li Yin's arms. Li Yin didn't escape this time. Instead, he held her in his arms with both hands.
??Su Morer hugged her tightly, as if this was a dream that would dissipate at any time. And Li Yin was still hugged by Su Morer.
?? "No...do not bully...sister!" Su Xiaoyan's voice suddenly sounded, and Li Yin felt a pair of small hands tugging at his clothes.
??At this moment, the two of them remembered that there was another light bulb here.
??Su Moer wiped away her tears and said with a smile, "Xiao Yan, don't be rude."
??Li Yan touched Su Xiaoyan's head. The little girl was still glaring at him. Seeing Su Morer laughing, her little face was full of doubts. She didn't understand why Su Moer was crying and laughing at the same time.
??Piercing the window paper between the two of them, the atmosphere between Su Morer and Li Yin suddenly became much more harmonious. Without the restraint of a monarch and minister, the happiness on Su Morer's face seemed to overflow at any time.
??Li Yin didn't expect that sending this bichon frize would inadvertently break the relationship between the two, but he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed and untied the knot in his heart.
After chatting with Su Morer for a while, the two of them exchanged glances and glances secretly, but with Su Xiaoyan as the light bulb, the two of them didn't become too intimate until the sun set and night fell, Su Morer said: "Your Highness , it's getting late, you should go back!"
??Li Yan was taken aback for a moment, and thought of a ghostly idea, "It's so late, I'm very afraid of walking at night."
Su Mo'er's face turned red and hot immediately. She had read many of the spy war books that Li Yin brought from Hyundai, and of course understood what Li Yin meant. She pushed Li Yin to the door and said, "Princess, what's the matter now?" She must be waiting for His Highness to eat, if you stay here without saying anything, she knows she will be unhappy."
??Li Yin acted shamelessly and refused to leave. He took three steps forward and two steps back, very unhappy, and whispered: "Then I will come over tomorrow morning."
??Su Moer couldn't beat Li Yin, blushed, and responded with a voice like a mosquito. Li Yan was overjoyed, and then obediently walked out the door.
?? When he turned his head, he saw Su Moer quickly shut the door. Li Yin shook his head and walked back on foot.
Behind the door, Su Mo'er was clutching her chest, her heart seemed to be about to jump out. Thinking of tomorrow, she was looking forward to it but also shy, thinking that when Li Yin was serious, he was very serious, but when he was not serious, he became another people.
When Li Yin returned to the palace, dinner was just ready, fried potato shreds, sweet and sour fish, mutton soup, and a plate of venison, three meat and one vegetable. Now Zhang San uses modern cooking materials and tools. The taste of the dishes is basically the same as that of modern times, and Li Yin can eat comfortably.
"Come to Baixue, eat a piece of meat." Cui Yingying's novelty hadn't passed in the afternoon, so she put the puppy on the table and prepared a special plate for it, and put a piece of meat on it. To begin with, "Your Highness, give me some advice on the matter of Qianxiufang. How to sell this kind of thing?"
Cui Yingying tossed about the matter of Qianxiufang for several months, and used Shu brocade to imitate the style of modern underwear. Li Yin also cooperated with him and bought a lot of steel wire and elastic from modern times to bring her. Only then did she produce qualified underwear. Clothes, but there is a shop in Qianxiufang, and Cui Yingying also put underwear on the shelves for sale, but few people care about it. Li Yin didn't ask much about it at first, in order to see if Cui Yingying could do it herself. Opening the market, it seems, is a failure.
"Isn't this a very simple matter? Others don't know what you are selling, what is the function of the clothes, of course they will not buy them, and the door of your Thousand Embroidery Workshop is wide open, and that lady is willing to stand in the eyes of others Choose underwear." Li Min took a sip of the mutton soup, which was very spicy and strong enough.
?? "For this door, I'll have someone install a bead curtain and put it behind the door. You can't see the inside from the outside, but it's definitely not suitable to hold an exhibition because it's in broad daylight." Cui Yingying put down her chopsticks and said.
Li Yin nodded, "Not just bead curtains, but also hang a sign outside, which says that men are not allowed to enter, and set up several changing rooms in the store, and install a full-length mirror in each changing room." , let them see the effect of wearing it. As for the exhibition, it can’t be done publicly, but can be done privately. You can invite all the rich and noble ladies and ladies in Yizhou to a party, choose a place where only women are allowed to enter, and then spend money to invite young ladies Lou geisha try on them, or simply give a batch of free gifts to brothel geisha, let them wear it when they pick up customers, and their fame will soon be established."
??Li Yin was eloquent, Cui Yingying slapped the table and said, "That's right!", after explaining the frowning look just now, her eyeballs rolled around, and she didn't know what the **** she was thinking.
??The two of them were eating together, when Cui Yingying seemed to remember something, and said, "By the way, Your Highness, Shangguanyi came to see you this afternoon."
??Li Yin said: "Did he say something?"
?? "He said he caught a thief who stole sweet potatoes. Jin Daqian went over to identify them in the afternoon, and he said that they were indeed sweet potatoes from our field." Cui Yingying said, frowning, obviously very unhappy.
??Li Yin put the bowl heavily on the table, "I really got the guts of a bear, and actually stole it into the field of the palace." He turned to Xiaocui and said, "Go and call Jin Daqian."
??Xiao Cui responded and left. After a while, Jin Daqian, who was still greasy on his mouth, followed Xiao Cui, probably eating.
?? "Your Highness!" Jin Daqian bowed.
?? "Did you ask the thief who stole the sweet potato?" Li Yin said.
??Jin Daqian replied: "This old slave is thinking about what he will tell His Highness tomorrow. The thief who stole sweet potatoes is not from Tang Dynasty, but from Tubo."
?? "Tubo people!" Li Min scolded, "I really deserve a beating, but I'm quite courageous!"
Jin Daqian also showed a resentful expression on his face, "Your Highness, you don't know, the arrogant appearance of those Tubo businessmen after they were arrested, saying that Yizhou is under the feet of Tubo, if they are not released, their Tubo army will be destroyed." Yizhou will definitely be razed to the ground."
When Cui Yingying heard this, her eyebrows stood on end. She wanted to say something angry, but she calmed down again, "Your Highness, although the national power of Tubo is not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty, it does not belong to the Eastern Turks in the period of complete victory. These businessmen Dare to say this must be something to rely on, it is better to handle it carefully."
Li Yin glanced at Cui Yingying. Her opinion on Tubo came from the Cui family, which represented the opinion of the vast majority of people. It seems that people in the Tang Dynasty were really afraid of Tubo, and Li Shimin and Tubo got married out of helplessness in history. He was unwilling to fight such a strong opponent again. At this time, Li Shimin and Songtsan Gampo were like two tigers testing each other's strength, neither of them dared to take the risk of starting a war. Scruples, began the invasion of the Tang Dynasty for more than a hundred years.
Li Shimin conquered Turks and Goryeo in the north, and Tuyuhun and Gaochang in the west. His merits will last for thousands of years, but although the marriage with Tubo brought a temporary peace, it buried a hundred years of hidden dangers. He suddenly remembered a sentence to describe the Ming Dynasty: At the gate of the country, when the king dies in the country, he will not be a subject, will not pay tribute, will not make peace, and will not cede land.
?? And since he has arrived in the Tang Dynasty, he will never let the tragedy of history repeat itself.
