The Yang sisters' mansion in Changxingfang has been expanded repeatedly, and they have taken over half of the square as their own. The most luxurious one is the third sister's house of the Yang family, which not only has pavilions, waterside pavilions, silk curtains, but also tall buildings overlooking other people's homes. It is rich and noble.
The oppressive atmosphere escapes from the buildings, and it becomes a fashion that the wealthy households near Kaihuafang imitate.
I heard that the saint would reward the Yang sisters with tens of millions of dollars every month. It seemed that they all used the money to build luxury houses. He walked leisurely on the white marble bricks and stones in the house and felt that the money was spent too much. Qionglou Yuyu
How many people built it with their blood and sweat.
The servants of the Yang Mansion led him towards the tall building. When the breeze blew, the bells on the eaves of the building jingled.
The servant stopped in front of the building, indicating that he only sent it here. Li Siye stepped in curiously, and looked up at the structure and construction of the building. It was all made of wood, and the fine lines of the wood were smudged in it, exuding an odor.
The smell of rosin.
The building is decorated with gauze screens. Because the caisson is too high, all the furniture looks extremely small. Two maids are standing at the corner of the stairs, holding everlasting lamps in their hands. There are faint sounds of silk and bamboo upstairs, and it seems that they are coming again.
Li Siye walked up the stairs and came to the octagonal second floor space. Except for a screen placed at the entrance of the stairs, the rest of the place was unobstructed. It was open to the outside, and the partitions and windows took in the scenery outside.
Come in.
Walking around the screen, you can see a group of musical prostitutes sitting cross-legged on the carpet, holding a pipa in their arms, holding a harp across the side, or playing a jade flute. The melodious sounds are blowing towards your face, like the spring breeze blowing leisurely. Yang Yuyao is lying on her side.
On the sandalwood bed, she bent her elbows to support her chin. Her wide robe and gauze skirt had distinct colors. Her shoulders were draped with silk shawls, exposing her round shoulders, and her white jade-like skin looked even more radiant.
Yang Zhao was sitting on the hut on the other side, lazily leaning against Ge You, even his eyelids were drooped, and he yawned from time to time.
Li Siye strolled in, and the prostitutes subconsciously stopped playing. Yang Zhao frowned in dissatisfaction and yelled at them: "Why have you stopped? What are you doing? Keep playing!"
The musical prostitutes continued to play the strings, and Yang Zhao continued to lie down lazily, never raising his eyelids to look at Li Siye. Yang Yuyao smiled at him, but still half-lying there without emotion.
The Yang brothers and sisters didn't seem to welcome him, even the most perfunctory courtesy was omitted? The lack of courtesy did not dampen the original intention of his trip. If he wanted to lose face, he would not come to Yang's house to cause trouble.
He walked up to Yang Yuyao's bed. There was no extra seat on the ground, so he sat down directly on the ground and leaned against the pillars of the couch to enjoy the music leisurely.
Several prostitutes were all good at sex and art. They wore white short jackets and gauze skirts that reached to their chests. When they played wind music, their bodies swayed with the rhythm, which made Li Siye feel puzzled. This could be regarded as a kind of beauty.
Audio-visual enjoyment.
The hands of the woman playing the pipa are really beautiful. The emerald green jade bracelet is placed on her wrist, and the emerald white fingers play nimbly, making people feel as if the vocal music is coming from her hands and the jade bracelet.
Yang Yuyao raised her head slightly and glanced at Li Siye who was sitting at the end of her couch. She felt that he was really enjoying the music and the beauty.
She sat up and clapped her hands, and the music in the hands of the prostitutes stopped. They sat upright and waited for further orders from the master.
"You all go down."
"Here." They hugged the pipa and the strings and shuffled away slowly, their long white skirts trailing on the ground. They were both beautiful and dull.
Yang Yuyao turned to look at Li Siye and asked with a playful smile: "What? Do you like these prostitutes? I can give them to you if you want."
Li Siye turned his hand to her and said, "Thank you madam for your kindness. Siye is just a commoner. It's refreshing to enjoy music and other things occasionally, but you will get bored after a long time, so there is no need to waste their kindness."
Yang Zhao finally stopped lying down with Ge You, tugged on his robe and laughed, "General Li is self-aware."
"That's natural. It's not easy to be self-aware."
The coldness at the corner of Yang Zhao's mouth became stronger: "It's not easy to know yourself? Are you not smart? If a living person doesn't know what he is and what he is capable of, what is the difference between a pig and a dog?"
Li Siye wanted to say that you didn't have the self-knowledge to counterattack him, but considering that Yang was the host and he was the guest, he had no choice but to continue following his words: "What Yang Lang said is absolutely true. You are the smartest and have the highest starting point.
Of course Siye is ashamed of himself."
Yang Zhao was originally a bit irritating, but it felt like this punch hit cotton and had no effect at all. His original intention was to drive away Li Siye, and he also knew that his intention here was to use the Yang family's
The steps are high, so obstruction is very necessary.
Since he came to Chang'an from Shuzhong last year with a gift from Qiu Zhang Jianqiong, he gained the emperor's favor because of his cousin Yang Yuhuan's relationship. He first served as a member of the Jinwu Bing Cao, and later was promoted to the supervisory censor, a member of the branch, a foreign minister, and an official.
The imperial censor was promoted four times in a row in just one year. This kind of promotion speed could not be achieved by relatives of the emperor.
Of course, this was all through the relationship between his cousin, but he was not satisfied, and even felt a little angry, because many people who came to please the Yang family had higher official positions than him, such as An Lushan, An Sishun, Li Siye and others. This
It gave him the illusion that all the connections in the Yang family had been taken away by these people. I am Yang Yuhuan's cousin and he is only a fifth-rank official, but you are all very good at third- and fourth-rank officials.
So he began to be very stingy about the resources of the Yang family, just like a miser surrounding a pile of gold mountains, and would never allow anyone to come around and ask for it. But the more Yang Zhao thought like this, the more unbalanced he became. Because he found that some of them were not at all like him.
Unable to stop him, he wanted to stop Yang Yuhuan from recognizing an older godson, but this Sogdian godson was so clever and clever that he made Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan laugh as soon as he entered the palace.
I also had to force myself to smile.
He felt more and more psychologically unbalanced, and he also narrowed down the opportunities for outsiders to seek refuge with the Yang family. He would never allow anyone to surpass him relying on the power of their family. It is enough to worry about the mother-in-law having a godson, so don't bother with the godbrother.
Godson.
Li Siye could understand Yang Zhao's thoughts and sneered in his heart. If Li Linfu was petty, then this Yang Zhao was completely low-skilled. Not only was he low-skilled, he was also short-sighted.
Yang Zhao has not carefully analyzed An Lushan's promotion experience. Even if he did, he would not admit that An Lushan was promoted by his own ability. Even flattery must be a kind of ability. Not only An Lushan,
Many people have risen to where they are today. Although they borrowed some help from the Yang family in the process, they mostly rely on their own hard work.
At this time, Yang Zhao sneered and asked: "General Li suddenly came to my third sister's house today. I'm afraid it's not just a visit."
Li Siye knew very well that it was useless to deal with such people in circles, so it was better to start the conversation directly, so as not to make Yang Yuyao think that he was not sincere.
"Of course it's not just a visit."
"Well," Yang Zhao looked up and asked, "What else do you want to do?"
Li Siye bowed towards Yang Yuyao and crossed his hands and said: "I want my wife to go to the palace for me and speak kindly to the empress. I hope that the empress can speak kindly to me in front of the saint and recommend me as the governor of Beiting."
"You have a beautiful idea!" Yang Zhao almost exploded on the spot. This guy named Li was becoming more and more shameless. Before, he just came forward to please and join in the fun, but now he directly made it clear that he wanted an official.
