The cultural atmosphere of Qinglian Wine Shop is not low. The drinkers present are more or less poetic. When they saw someone starting a battle, they all gathered around and lowered their heads to watch.
The person who wrote the pen was tall and thick, and he didn't look like a poet. But you can't tell a person's face, and maybe the lotus blossomed in his pen. Who would have thought that this person actually drew a long straight line.
Not writing poetry? Do you want to paint? Really, what is a painter here showing off?
He drew another straight line, and then another straight line. Whether it was a landscape or a figure, where was the straight line?
Li Siye drew three thick lines horizontally and more than a dozen thin lines vertically. He took aim at the beads on the thin lines, put down the penholder and placed it on the inkstone.
The shopkeeper felt that he should take care of the customer's face, and wanted to praise the painting a few words. He shook the paper and said, "Look at this painting... what is it you painted?"
Li Siye pointed to the counting beads on the platform, and then pointed to the painting in the shopkeeper's hand and said: "Put the beads on your counting chip into the frame of my painting, with two beads on the top and five beads on the bottom. From now on,
The numbers moving forward are one hundred, one hundred, one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand, one thousand, one trillion. Place it flat on the desk, dial one bead from top to bottom to be five, dial one bead from bottom to top to be one, and if there is an increase, it will be one.
Carry, and abdicate when there is a subtraction. Long-term additions and subtractions can form a formula, and you don't need to add up the numbers one by one. How about it?"
"It does seem to be a lot more convenient." The store owner raised his fingers and fiddled with the abacus on the paper a few times. He felt more and more wonderful: "It seems like they just added two crossbars to fix the beads on the paper."
On the plate, the speed should be much better than the string of beads."
Seeing that the store owner understood and accepted it, Li Siye was very pleased and said with a smile: "If you think it will be useful, ask a carpenter to build one for you. Since I can't meet Li Taibai today, I have no choice but to let it go." After that, he strode out quickly.
go.
The store owner hurriedly asked: "May I ask your name?"
"Li Siye."
His voice remained inside the door, and the person had already left the wine shop.
The shopkeeper hurriedly chased him out the door, squinting at the towering figure in the distance, and murmured: "Isn't this the friend who sent Li Taibai back that day?"
When the shopkeeper returned to the wine shop, he saw that all the drinkers present were silent, but their eyes were like jackals staring at the abacus drawn on the paper. He looked at it several times and silently memorized the number of beads on the upper and lower levels.
Some people even wanted to slip the paper into their sleeves, but fortunately the store kept a close eye on it, took it in their hands, folded it, and put it in their arms, thinking about which carpenter master in Chang'an City they should find to make this thing as soon as possible.
The store owner looked out the window and praised in a low voice: "No wonder I am Li Taibai's friend. He is also an extremely talented person!"
…
In the Datong Hall of Xingqing Palace, Yang Taizhen was wearing a plain robe and a Ziwu lotus crown, sitting elegantly in front of the chessboard with unfinished pieces, waiting alone and melancholy.
His Majesty is summoning husband Meng Lingcha and his entourage from Anxi in the Xingqing Hall in the front yard, temporarily leaving her as a caged bird here. But then again, the entire West Nei Taiji, East Nei Daming, and Nannei Xingqing
, all the palace maids and officials in Furong Garden are birds kept in cages by His Majesty.
At this time, in the Xingqing Hall, Fu Meng Lingcha stood bowed under the steps, followed by Gao Xianzhi, Li Siye and Ma Phosphorus.
Li Longji held his knees and lowered his head and said: "Let Gao Xianzhi be the military envoy of the four towns and serve as deputy governor. Cheng Qianli will continue to be the envoy of Qiuci Town and concurrently serve as deputy governor. General Zhongwu Li Siye will be appointed as the envoy of Shule Town and concurrently serve as deputy governor.
Ma Phosphorus is appointed as the envoy to the town of Khotan, and he is the envoy to the town of Yanqi. What do you think of him?"
Fumeng Lingcha raised his eyebrows slightly, and Gao Xianzhi was surprised. Li Siye was promoted so quickly. Is this the speed of eight bloody horses? Two of the four towns in Anxi are under his jurisdiction, and Shule Town governs five.
There are thousands of soldiers and horses, and there are 4,000 soldiers in Khotan Town. Together with the small towns under its jurisdiction, the troops in hand are more than 10,000, which is half of the soldiers in the four towns of Anxi.
I remember that when he came to Anxi with his father, he rose from the rank of low-level officer step by step. It took him seven or eight years to reach the position of envoy. However, he was expelled by Gai Jiayun to Khotan as the deputy envoy. Fortunately, his husband
After Meng Lingcha was appointed as the Protector, he was appointed again and had just become the military commander of the four towns.
But starting from the 25th year of the lunar calendar, Li Siye has been progressing almost every year. In just five years, he has become the general guarding two towns. It is estimated that he will not have to wait long before he is caught up.
How can this be done?
He was quite worried in his heart, hoping that Fu Meng Lingcha could raise objections to the saint and let him serve as the guardian envoy of two towns, which might be too biased.
But Fumeng Lingcha did not object as he expected. He bent down and crossed his hands and saluted, saying: "Your Majesty's arrangement is particularly appropriate. Fumeng Lingcha obeys your order."
The three of them also crossed their hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Right Prime Minister Li Linfu, who was standing aside, stood up at the right time, saluted Li Longji, and said to the four people in Anxi: "It has been a year since Ashina Xin was granted the title of Khan of the Ten Turks, and he has not stayed in Chang'an for a long time.
It’s not appropriate to leave, so you immediately escort him to Anxi to control and balance the ten Turkic tribes.”
Fumeng Lingzha hesitated for a moment, then crossed his arms and said to Li Linfu: "The dispute between the two surnames of Tuqi Shi and Black and White has made his strength plummet, but he is still powerful among the Wudu Lu tribe in the left compartment. He rashly escorted Ashina Xin there.
If Sui Ye takes office, he may suffer the vicious hands of Khan He Mo named Huang."
"Can you think of a way to do this?" Li Linfu inserted his hands into his sleeves and narrowed his eyes and said, "Tu Qishi is not a monolithic person, not to mention that the black and yellow surnames of the Wudu Lu tribe are still incompatible. Well, escort him there.
Talas, a place where black surnames live, took office. Due to the dispute between the black and white surnames, the name of Xin, the ten-surnamed khan, is a flag that the black surnamed forces can erect, so that the power between the two surnames will be balanced, Ashi
Then Xin can safely control the north and south of Suiye River for the imperial court."
This is also a white wolf with empty hands, Li Siye thought to himself. The only thing the Ashina family has now is one surname. There is not a single pasture in the north and south of Suiyechuan Tianshan, and not a single wolf soldier belongs to him. Just relying on one surname
Maintaining the Western Region? As long as the balance is slightly disturbed, the first person to die is the puppet-like Khan named Ten.
It is estimated that the Khan Guards formed for him by the four towns of Anxi for free will not exceed 500 people. As far as Li Siye knows, in history, Ashina Xin was attacked and killed by Hemo Dagan when he was on his way to the Western Regions.
Lan Cheng, he needs to take a look at this matter and see how the situation goes and whether he can remedy the situation by then.
Fumeng Lingcha did not raise any objections and accepted this arduous task. He crossed his hands and said, "What the right minister said is absolutely true. Before we leave for Anxi, we will definitely take him with us and ensure that he goes to his post safely."
Xuanzong sat on the couch and suddenly asked with a sigh: "It seems that the only seedling of Ashina Buzhen is left."
Li Linfu quickly crossed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, yes."
Li Longji said again: "Bu Zhen is Zhenguan, and he is a distinguished minister of Longshuo and Longshuo. I can't bear to put his heirs in danger. How about this, Brother Nu, you can draw up a decree for me, and the Longwu Army from the left and right will be thousands of cavalry." Select 500 people from among them to be the bodyguards of Khan Jue. Your Anxi Protectorate will send out another 500 people. These 1,000 people will be the foundation for Ashina Xin to establish a foothold in Mengchi Protectorate. They should be able to keep him safe. .”
Li Linfu immediately bowed and praised: "Your Majesty takes good care of the orphans of old ministers. Ashina Buzhen is a wise spirit in heaven, and he will shed tears of gratitude for your Majesty's kindness."
Li Longji looked delighted, stroking his beard and saying with a smile: "Without the merits of these martyrs in the past, how could the prosperous Tang Dynasty be like today? How could I forget their merits, and how could I not sympathize with their descendants?"
Fumeng Lingcha and others were also very cooperative. They immediately bowed and crossed their hands and said: "Your Majesty has been so kind to me. I will do my best until I die!"
The emperor waved his hand with satisfaction: "Generals of Anxi, please retreat, and urge Ashina Xin to get on the road to Qixi as soon as possible."
"Here!"
