Chapter 74 One million taels, buy your own life

Light porridge and pickles, and even hungry.

This was a very beautiful thing.

"When will you leave?"

I drank a bowl of porridge clean, and half of the pickles on the small plate on one side were left.

This is the eighth floor, of course it is very high. The sun shines on the table through the windows, and many kinds of fragrances float in the street.

Li Xian asked with a sound.

After taking the towel handed over by Xu Yingxiu, Li Xiu wiped his mouth casually and looked out the window. After calculating the time, he said, "Let go at noon."

Murong Yingjie's invitation stated that he would invite Li Xiu to Gusu City to discuss it on October 22.

It will take at least twenty days to ride a horse from Sucheng, Chang'an.

Today is September 29th.

Time is not enough, and it can even be said to be a little nervous.

Especially when Li Xiu had to go to Guanshan, he would be even more nervous.

Li Xian nodded without saying much, sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest. He didn't sleep all night last night. Although he was not sleepy, he was still not used to it.

After dinner, he made another cup of tea, but he ignored the prince. After drinking two cups by himself, Li Xiu got up and jumped down from the building. After a few pauses, he landed on the ground.

Xu Yingxiu naturally followed behind.

The disciple of Tingxue Tower standing at the door quietly retreated.

As soon as Li Xian walked to the window, he looked at Li Xiu's gradually moving away from the long street, his eyes a little complicated.

Ying Zi'an pushed the door and walked in, and his eyes looked over.

"Your Highness the Prince is in danger. Should you let the Right Guard lead you to protect him?"

Li Xian shook his head, and the prince Liulu was inseparable from Kyoto.

What's more, with this dangerous journey, even if you send troops to go, it's just a death sentence, and it's useless.

"It is still unknown whether he can succeed when he goes to Guanshan!"

His voice was a little sighing. Ying Zi'an stood on one side and frowned, not understanding why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this?

Seeing Li Xiu go further and further, Li Xianyi's face is getting heavier and heavier. The success of this trip to the mountains is related to Li Xiu's wealth and life.

There is absolutely no mistake.

......

Guanshan, also known as Langcheng, can be reached by walking north from Chang'an for more than 2,000 miles.

Li Xiu had been with Zui Chunfeng once before, but this time he was with Xu Yingxiu.

The distance of more than two thousand miles is not long, just like before

We set off for lunch and arrived as the evening approached.

From a distance, the ancient and green city gate is wide open, with the word "Langcheng" hanging on it, with a pen that is dragon and snake, and is elegant and elegant.

It should be a newly hung plaque, but Li Xiu saw this last time he came.

There were six soldiers standing at the door, tall figures, sharp eyes, and none of them dared to cause trouble at the city gate.

Since the last time he successfully drove tigers and swallowed wolves, he has closed the gates of Yinshan Mountain.

The Qin family and Jing family in Langcheng also suffered numerous casualties and fell completely. Guanshan has now been completely taken over by the people of the court, and they have been managed from top to bottom with iron-blooded means.

After all, what the people in Guanshan did was too bad at the beginning, and it can be said that they were disgraced by countless Tang people.

After walking into the city, Li Xiu did not rush to do anything, but led the horse around, and then stayed in the place where the upside down appeared for a long time. The cracks on the ground still existed. It was easy to recover the power of heaven and earth as usual, but it was difficult to do.

Many people have been used to this appearance when coming and going, and are not surprised to see Li Xiu and the other two stop. Since the appearance of the upside-down sky, people from other places have come here to watch the ruins almost every day, which is normal.

"Let's go!"

Standing there silent for a long time, Li Xiu led his horse to the same path.

The best inn in Langcheng is undoubtedly Guanshan Inn, where 99% of the high-ranking officials and nobles will live.

Li Xiu did not, and walked slowly along the street. His steps finally stopped in front of the door of Shangru Inn.

Tied the big black horse to one side, Li Xiu was silent at the door for a moment before walking in.

It rained not only last night, but also Kyoto, but also heavy rain in Langcheng, with deep water on the road. In addition, the location of Shangru Inn is not a good place. At this time, there was no guest inside the inn.

"Please sit down, this guest."

As soon as he entered, the person who was running away immediately came up to meet him, and with a smile on his face, he led Li Xiu to a good seat, standing beside him with a flattering face.

"I left two rooms at the beginning, but are you still here today?"

Li Xiu asked, with an inexplicable meaning in his voice.

The person who ran away was stunned for a moment, then patted his forehead and suddenly realized: "It turned out to be the young master. I left it and kept it. The room I wanted was naturally kept. I have never let anyone else go in since that day."

"How much money is left?"

Li Xiu left behind a thousand taels that day, now it's over

More than half a year.

Paotang's smile froze, he coughed awkwardly, then looked up and shouted at the counter: "Scholar, hurry up and calculate how much silver you have left in this young master?"

Behind the counter, the scholar slammed the abacus and then looked up and replied: "There are still four hundred and thirty-six taels left. Remove the storage fee, the cleaning fee and the guarantee fee, and there are still three hundred and ninety-seven taels left."

Three hundred and ninety-seven taels?

Li Xiu smiled softly, and he naturally didn't care about how much money he had left.

Xu Yingxiu took a few steps back and closed the store door.

Without Sunshine Inn, it suddenly became dim.

A woman in an apron pushed open the curtain from the backyard and walked in, shouting, "What's going on? The store is closed in broad daylight? Lao Bai, aren't you afraid of the shopkeeper scolding you?"

The woman was holding a broom in her hand, and her hands looked a little wet. She was washing clothes in the backyard just now.

A bitter smile appeared on Paotang's face: "It has nothing to do with me!"

"Also say it has nothing to do with you? The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, you come out to judge, and Lao Bai in broad daylight actually closed the store door."

This sentence was loud and spread far away.

There was only a sound of the door opening and closing on the second floor, and then there was a sound of going down the stairs.

Then a woman wearing a red and white plain skirt and holding a round fan in her hand frowned and walked out.

"Uh, God!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the woman looked up and saw Li Xiu and Xu Yingxiu. A smile suddenly appeared on her face. She hurriedly greeted: "What do you want to eat?"

After saying that, he didn't wait for Li Xiu to reply and shouted to the backyard twice: "Big Mouth, Big Mouth, Big Mouth come out soon, and a distinguished guest will arrive."

As soon as these words came out, a fat man with a big waist and round waist came out of the kitchen, holding a spatula in his hand.

"What's the matter? I'm busy!"

There is a female shopkeeper, a sour scholar, a chef, a hallkeeper, and a messenger.

The five people appeared at the same time and gathered together, complaining non-stop.

Xu Yingxiu's pupils shrank a little, and her breathing became slightly more rapid.

Li Xiu looked at this scene quietly.

A moment later, he took out a million taels of silver notes from his arms and put them on the table.

"I'll pay a million taels to buy my own life."

The noise became quiet, and the five of them turned around and looked at Li Xiu.

The inn is dark.
