After Huaiyu left the Samurai Ling Mansion, he turned around and went to the Xu Mansion in the same house.
The doorman reported that he was the nephew of Samurai Leng in the square, and gave him a pipa as a gift that Samurai Leng had prepared for him. After Lao Wu said that Xu Luoren was the Xu family of Yingchuan,
The third generation of Guanlong Jiangmen, the third generation of Dukes in the family, grew up with Li Shimin in Wugong County in the west of Beijing.
Many nobles and relatives of Chang'an have villas in Wugong County.
Before the Li family launched an army in Taiyuan, Li Shimin sent a letter to recruit Xu Luoren to join him in big things. In the past ten years, Xu Luoren has been playing the role of captain of the guard beside Li Shimin. He is loyal and loyal. Xu Luoren has never led an army to fight, but there are still
Duke of Jiangxia County, and was promoted to commander of the Ming Dynasty army behind the Xuanwu Gate, leading the army to be the commander of the North Gate of Suwei.
Xu Luoren was Li Shimin's most trusted bodyguard. He didn't study anything about leading troops in battles. His favorite things were studying horses and pipa. Because Li Shimin loved BMWs and pipas, Xu Luoren often contributed BMWs, pipas, and pipa songs to Li Shimin.
"This pipa is quite good. If I'm not mistaken, it must be the one collected by Xuancheng Duke Warrior Leng." Xu Luoren saw the origin of this pipa at a glance and said to his wife Song Shanzhi with a smile: "The warrior Tong was summoned to the court as a
He became the Minister of the Huangmen, and the warrior Yi was promoted to the governor of Shaozhou, which is actually much better than the Yang family."
The Song family is also a general. Both her ancestors and father are Dukes of Yongning County. She plays the pipa well. The couple also likes to play the pipa and study music. They hold the pipa horizontally and play a tune with a pluck. The big pearl
Small beads fall into the jade plate.
"This pipa is indeed a famous piece. It has excellent appearance and sound. It is also old. Duke Xuancheng is willing to give this pipa to a nephew from a branch clan as a gift. It seems that he thinks highly of this young man."
"My lady doesn't know that this Wu Erlang is the owner of the treasure pill that all the noble families in Chang'an City are fighting over. It is said that he came down from Zhongnan Mountain and practiced Taoism with an enlightened immortal in Louguan.
Years ago, Qin Shubao, the Duke of Yi State, was able to heal and make elixirs, and was seriously ill. He was bedridden, and the doctors were helpless. However, Cheng Yaojin, the Duke of Su State, brought Wu Erlang to the Qin Mansion, and he glanced at him.
He saw the situation and prescribed the elixir. After Yi Guogong took the medicine, he quickly got better. Now he has been appointed to an important position again, General Zuo Wuwei, General of Chang'an Dao Banner and Drum. Do you think he is a god or not?
Let me tell you another secret that you don’t want to tell. That day, Hou Junji and I accompanied His Highness the Crown Prince, Changsun Gong and Fang Gong to Wu Erlang’s place incognito. Wu Erlang could tell at a glance that the Lord was sick. Even Changsun Gong and Fang Gong
Fang Gong could see where he was feeling unwell at a glance, and he prescribed a prescription. Later he took the medicine and showed it to Lao Fengyu of Shang Yao Bureau, and he agreed."
"Uncle Cheng, what else do you want to buy? From now on, I will have someone send some to my house for use every month."
"Since he is a good doctor, why is he not recruited into the Provincial Pharmacy Bureau in the palace, the Imperial Medical Bureau of Taichang Temple, or the Medicine Storage Bureau of the East Palace?"
Huaiyu felt that Li Shimin might have a guilty conscience. No matter how the Xuanwu Gate incident happened, after all, people killed their brothers and imprisoned their fathers to seize the throne. So many people died that day. It was normal to feel uneasy and unable to sleep at night, especially
After all, this happened not long ago, and now that he has not yet secured his position, and the Turks are aggressively suppressing the country, Li Shimin must be under tremendous psychological pressure.
Cheng Yaojin asked his last son Chuliang to follow him.
"It's not appropriate."
"Besides, I accompanied Your Highness to see him that day."
"Housekeeper, from now on my family will no longer buy bath bean noodles and hand ointment. Instead, we will go to Huaiyu's Qianjintang to buy this fragrant soap for use."
"Stand vigil every night for His Royal Highness?"
"His Royal Highness is considering giving him a special official position, but he has not yet decided what official position to give him."
Qin Qiong looked haggard, but did not complain: "If I work harder and can calm His Highness, it will be worthy and worthwhile."
"You can prescribe a calming elixir to help you sleep at night, but..." Huaiyu felt that Li Shimin was still mentally ill.
After all, Li Shimin was only in his twenties, and nightmares were also a sign of excessive physical stress. Maybe he was worried every day that he would be betrayed by someone else while sleeping at night. Wasn't Li Yuan being raped by him in his sleep?
Did he send Hou Junji and others to kidnap him on a dragon boat in Haichi? His cousin Yang Guang was also hanged by the rebellious Xiaoguo army in Jiangdu.
After sitting and chatting for a while, Huaiyu said he wanted to visit Qin Qiong's house.
Compared with the Khitan horse weighing 600 to 700 kilograms, it is a bit taller and its weight-bearing capacity is also stronger.
Such a horse is worth a lot of money. It is only slightly more expensive than the Pipa given by Huaiyu. Of course, Huaiyu's Pipa is also a collector's item. In the eyes of those who really like it, its value is hard to say.
Cheng Yaojin was surprised and delighted when he heard this, "Really?"
Huaiyu thought the horse was too expensive, but the other party insisted that he accept it.
The back, mane, tail, and limbs are all white, without a trace of hair. Such a pure-color white horse is rare, and it makes the horse look more handsome.
Walking down the street with two horses, one black and one white, is quite eye-catching.
The housekeeper specially reminded Huaiyu that this horse was a good horse selected by Xu Luoren himself. It was produced in the land of the river meander in Dangbabu, Tuguhun. An ordinary river meander horse only weighs about 800 kilograms, but this one weighs more than a thousand kilograms and is five feet tall.
feet, much taller than ordinary ones.
Song Shanzhi stroked the pipa gently, "How about I come to see him and say hello to Alang."
"His Highness felt that it was too much to let him become a doctor. It is difficult for a technical officer to have a future. You don't know that that day, His Highness paid a private visit incognito, and the boy started talking at length. I could hear outside the door that His Highness was very fond of him.
appreciate."
Qin Qiong has been very busy recently. He has been promoted to General Zuowuwei. He is also the General of Flags and Drums of Chang'an Road. He also has to inspect and inspect the troops and horses stationed at the north gate of the palace. He has several important positions in one person. He even has to go to the East Palace at night.
Stand guard for Li Shimin.
After hearing this, Huaiyu couldn't help but feel sorry for Qin Shubao. Last time, Qin Shubao promised to go to Bailuyuan to rest and recuperate, but now he not only holds several important positions, but also has to stay on night watch for Li Shimin. How can his body, which has not yet recovered, be able to bear it.
Song Zhishan held the pipa in his arms and said, "In that case, Alang will quickly invite this talented man to his house to entertain him."
Huaiyu waited outside for a long time, and then a housekeeper from the Xu Mansion came out with a Party Hequ horse, "My Alang is not at the house today. Madam likes the pipa Wu Erlang gave her very much, so she accepted it on Alang's behalf, but it's just inconvenient for her."
It's really rude to come out to entertain you, so my wife specially selected this Hequ horse as a gift to Wu Erlang."
I didn't see Xu Luoren, but he accepted the pipa he sent and returned the white horse. Huaiyu felt that this trip was not in vain. At least Li Shimin's close bodyguard did not dislike him, Wu Erlang, and might even reveal that the Wu family
It's relatively safe at the moment, otherwise it would be impossible for him to accept his gift, let alone a good horse.
He suddenly thought of something. Qin Qiong and Yu Chigong were the door gods, but the door gods before the Tang Dynasty were not the two of them. The previous door gods seemed to be called Shen Tu Yulei.
"Sure."
"This thing is better than bath beans, and the scent is quite pleasant to me. It's a good thing."
Cheng Yaojin asked Huaiyu: "Does Erlang have any good prescriptions that can alleviate your highness's condition?"
Originally, my health was getting better after taking the medicine prescribed by Huaiyu, but I have been very busy recently and have become weak again.
Xu Luoren was only in his twenties, Song was a few years younger than him, and Wu Huaiyu was heard to be only eighteen.
A mahogany portrait with talismans and seals and Qin Qiong's weapons and armor was used to stand guard in place of Qin Qiong.
Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong were loyal, brave, and extremely powerful. They wore armor and guarded outside his palace to make him feel at ease.
"Dong Yi's armor, iron spears, and golden maces have gone through hundreds of battles with Duke Qin. They are soaked with countless blood, including the blood of Duke Qin's generals. They are the most deterrent to evil spirits."
"Okay, pick a horse for him."
Huaiyu simply went back to Huaiyuanfang first, leaving the white horse to Runniang to take care of first. He then went to Cheng's house in Huaidefang. Lao Cheng liked the gift he sent and not only took the Ginseng Yangrong Pills but
I just crushed the wax shell and took a pill. I also asked someone to fetch water, and I tried the soap directly. My face was covered with foam and my hands were full of foam, and I was very excited when I rubbed it.
Huaiyu looked at the horse, which was more than one meter and a half tall. It was powerful and powerful, with a head that was slightly longer but not thick. Its ears were long and pointed, erect and smart. Its eyes were large and medium, its waist and back were broad and straight, and its coat color was
It's white.
"In addition to the soothing elixir, I have a method. I can draw a portrait of Duke Yi on a peach board, and then use cinnabar mixed with black dog's blood, saltpeter, sulfur, mercury, etc. to draw talismans and seals, and hang them at the palace gate.
It can make this portrait have the effect of exorcising evil spirits. When the time comes, the big iron spears, gold maces and armors used in Yi Guogong's battle array will be placed in front of the palace, and they will also have the effect of exorcising evil spirits."
"Well, His Highness has often had nightmares recently. Only Shu Bao and Jing De stood guard for him, so that the evil spirits did not dare to approach, and His Highness could sleep peacefully. But in this way, Shu Bao's body, which had just turned around, could not help but be unable to bear it.
, I have to stand in a helmet all night every night, and I have to hold multiple jobs during the day. Where can I eat?" Cheng Yaojin sighed, "I originally wanted to replace Shu Bao and watch the night for His Highness, but I can't control him without Shu Bao's ability.
, His Highness still has nightmares."
"Let's go together."
"Why don't you accept Pipa, return a gift to him, and then say that Alang is not at home today?" Song Shanzhi didn't think so much at first, but when her husband cared about it, he realized that Wu Erlang was a young man who was really not suitable for the two of them.
meet.
"Do I, Cheng Zhijie, still lack that little money? Can I still take advantage of my descendants?"
"Shubao and Jingde are the only ones who can stand guard at night. No one else would be able to do it. I, Hou Junji, Xu Luoren, Zhou Xiaofan, Duan Zhixuan, Zhang Gongjin, Liu Shili, even Gao Shilian, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui can't do it.
"I'm just a little hesitant. I don't want to get involved with the Wu family too early. Although the warrior Xun has entered the court as the Huangmen Minister, it doesn't mean that His Highness really trusts him. Maybe it's just a temporary appeasement. He will be promoted to the emperor in the future, and he will be taken away from Yangzhou secretly.
With most of the power to supervise and govern, how can we just find an excuse to switch to an idle position?"
"Then I'll come visit Mr. Xu next time."
"Please take it, Takejiro."
Qin Qiong said: "I have been working hard for nothing. Previously, I had to change people to keep watch at night, and His Highness could not sleep peacefully. If this method doesn't work, Your Highness will suffer again."
Old Cheng pointed at Huaiyu: "You have personally experienced Erlang's ability. I, Old Cheng, am also very convinced. I follow the old immortal in Zhongnan Mountain. Famous teachers give birth to great disciples. His master is more than a hundred years old and has achieved Tao Sheng.
Master Xian, Lou Guan Dao's ability in refining alchemy and drawing talismans is known all over the world, why not let him try it, so that he can succeed once and for all in the future, otherwise if you fall down from exhaustion one day, who will come to guard the gate for His Highness?"
