Chapter 445: Only do practical things but not envy the immortals

After staying in Penglai for three days, Li Bai couldn't stay anymore. He wanted to meet Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan earlier, and to see two people who were rumored to call him gods with their own eyes, and to ask them to recommend them.

During the three days, in order to satisfy Li Yu, Li Bai really wrote a lot of poems, and naturally he drank a lot of wine. He reunited with a group of literati who were attracted by high rewards.

Li Yu originally planned to make the literati quarrel according to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's original ideas, but because of Li Bai's addition, he wrote several good poems in succession, which turned out that many people began to agree with the Hei Shui Governor's Office, almost one-sided.

There are very few people who have been to the Heishui Governor's Office and do not know the specific situation there at all. But it can be imagined that people with good literary talent will write a poem or a fu, and those with good painting will also draw pictures of snow scenes based on the winter appearance elsewhere.

The picture of Wang Juan's rime also gave them a reference for imitation and sublimation.

Li Yu chose a good frame and hang it up, and within three days, Penglai became the focus of discussion on the Hei Shui Governor's Office. Anyone who came to Penglai found that if he didn't talk about the Hei Shui Governor's Office, it would seem that he would not be able to keep up with the times.

Seeing that the general situation was ready, Li Yu did not plan to continue to stay in Penglai to waste his time, and arranged a few smart people to be responsible for the subsequent publicity matters. After Li Bai's several hints, he finally took more than 400 people from Anzhou to travel to Jilizhou on a boat.

After half a day of the boat, Li Yu set up a banquet on the bow of the boat and found Li Bai to continue drinking. He wanted to discuss with Li Bai about going to the Hei Shui Governor's Office to help him.

Li Bai was happy to pay the banquet. He had been enjoying the meals in these three days. He had known that the wine and food in Bihai Yinsha was good before, but unfortunately he didn't dare to go up to the third floor once. At most, he was invited to go up to the second floor to take a look. The wine and food ordered were not that expensive.

The price of good wine and bad wine is quite different. For three days, the white wine and wine were drunk back and forth, and then they were praised by other people who were not as good as Li Bai's literary talent, and Li Bai felt a feeling that it was not like being in the human world.

The wind blows from the sea, carrying the fishy and salty smell of the sea. Fishing boats in the distance chase the circling direction of the seabirds. The sun shines on the waves, sparkling endlessly, giving Li Bai, who has never really come out of the sea, a different feeling in his heart.

"Taibai, when he returned to Jilizhou, he saw Xiaobao and Juanjuan. He probably would have you and me go to the Hei Shui Governor's Office to do something. I wonder what errand Taibai wants to do?"

Li Yu was cooking rice wine today. He added some ginger slices, salt and sugar to the pots filled with wine from time to time. During the period of time, he asked Li Bai.

When Li Bai heard Li Yu's words, hesitated for a moment and asked, "I wonder if I can do things around the governor Zhang and Wang Zhanjun?"

Li Yu blinked his eyes and felt a little uncomfortable. He understood what Li Bai meant. Didn’t he just want to do things with someone with great ability and then enter the court? When he talked to him yesterday, he told him that it was not very useful to recommend it now, and he thought it would be better to go another way.

Li Yu thought about it for a while and was angry about it. He was indeed not as good as Xiaobao and Juanjuan. Seeing that Li Bai was still waiting for the reply, he pondered for a moment and said, "Taibai, Xiaobao and Juanjuan also like poetry, but they just like a little bit. What they both like is to do practical things more.

The inner courtyard of the two of them started to learn how to do things when they were from Sanshui County, and they got a lot of training opportunities when they went to Luzhou. Taibai, you might as well go to the Heishui Governor's Office with me first, adapt to the feeling of being an official, organize the accounts, organize the work of manpower, and wait for almost the same time to come to Xiaobao and Juanjuan."

Li Bai felt regretful, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, I wonder what they like?"

"I like money, Xiaobao likes to make money and spend money, Juanjuan likes to turn money into an army. The more soldiers she can control, the happier she is. Many officials in the court said that he was too vulgar, but while talking, he used the things from both of them to be happy for having a top scholar building and a senior membership of Deyiju. You can't help in this regard."

Li Yu knew that Li Bai wanted to meet his preferences, but unfortunately, the things Xiaobao and Juanjuan liked were not very helpful to ordinary people, that is, the emperor could give some help in the policy, which was also the rewards that the two of them earned with their efforts.

Sure enough, Li Bai was worried, so he picked up a piece of Chinese toon bean, threw it into his mouth and chewed it slowly, and asked, "Does the governor Zhang and Wang Zhanjun have other ideas about Tubo and the surrounding areas in the west? I still have a little understanding of it."

"Well, I can talk to them at that time." Li Yu really couldn't bear to attack Li Bai in this regard. Of course, Xiaobao and the others had ideas about it. Not only had ideas, but they had taken practical actions. It would be better to let Li Bai talk about it. Perhaps it could really provide the two with a new idea.

After looking at the boiled wine, he felt that the heat was almost the same. He scooped out two bowls. Li Yu said to Li Bai again: "Taibai, don't look at Xiao Baojuan, but he doesn't know much about it. They don't like things that are too ethereal, remember to be as pragmatic as possible at that time."

"This is natural." After Li Yu said this, Li Bai felt a little nervous and replied in response.

At this time, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were also considering how to arrange for Li Bai.

"Li Bai is coming. What position do you think you should arrange him to? I also know that he has great ambitions, but I can't just arrange a slaughter for him. Even if it is arranged, Li Longji can't do it. There are two prime ministers in the court now. Zhang said that he has not been there. According to Chang's history, he is already done. Alas, we have helped him."

Zhang Xiaobao said while writing a poem on paper with a pen, and the moonlight was bright in front of the bed...

Wang Juan glanced at the poem written by Zhang Xiaobao and smiled, "Why do you think of writing this poem? Who knows what Li Bai can do? You have to wait until you meet to understand what he will do. I hope he can really have some skills so that he can do more things."

Zhang Xiaobao changed a piece of paper and wrote on it that the person who abandoned me, yesterday... he drew his knife and cut off the water and flowed even more, and he raised his glass to relieve his sorrow and sorrow.

After writing, I sang again, "Yesterday was like the flowing water. I was far away from me and I couldn't stay. Today, I was in trouble. I was worried. I drew my knife to cut off the water and flowed even more. I raised my glass to relieve my sorrow and sorrow. Ming Dynasty..."

"The previous paragraph of this one more than a hundred years ago was revised according to the poems he wrote. I think, if he really arranged an official position for him and he really did it well, then will there be any poems we have read before appearing?

You see, Su Shi is good. If his career has always been so good, would he still be a Dongpo pork, or a raincoat for his whole life? The same is true for Li Bai, and the joy of the world is the same. In ancient times, everything flows eastward, will such a sentence disappear?"

Zhang Xiaobao was worried about this matter.

Wang Juan shook his head, grabbed Zhang Xiaobao's hand, and said, "So you just write about the bright moonlight in front of the bed, right? Because this poem is the most difficult to understand. It is very controversial whether this bed is the bed when sleeping or the bench sitting on it, just like a man riding a bamboo horse and playing with green plums around the bed.

Actually, it’s nothing. Even if Li Bai couldn’t write so many unsuccessful poems, he thought he could write another kind of poem. Li Shimin and Li Longji both wrote poems, and many famous court officials also had good poems passed down. Real poets could write at any time, just as people at that time liked to write diaries.

Text is a carrier. No matter what kind of feelings or moods you feel, you can write it. However, some people use it well and it feels comfortable to read it. Then Xin Qiji is still a general. Didn’t he write about looking for him in the crowd? It’s useless to think so much. See Li Bai early and see what he can do and arrange it. After all, he is a celebrity.”

"Okay, you recite a few more poems written by Li Bai, and I will write them down. If he dares to recite poems with me when he comes here, I will bully him to death, and I will not let Xiaoyuan take action.

In a few days, I will send Xiao Bei and the others to Jian'an to become officials. They have moved almost the same. Look at how they manage such a few people. Yesterday, when I went to class for them, I just arrived at the place. Guess what happened to me?"

Zhang Xiaobao was happy when he talked about his younger brother and sister. These little guys each had their own personalities, and it was not easy for him to be together so harmoniously.

"What happened to you? Tell me about it? Is it Xiaobei bullying others again?" Wang Juan became curious.

"No, Xiaoyuan started to create after memorizing the rhymes of Liweng and the Book of Songs. When I went there, Xiaoyuan recited poems for Xiaobei. I don't know how long I had been holding it in. I put it in a seven-character poem and laughed to death, hahahaha..."

Zhang Xiaobao was so happy that he squatted on the ground.

Wang Juan blinked her eyes and looked incredible, "Really? Tell me what the seven-character poem is written by Xiaoyuan?"

"What can he write? Don't look at how much he memorized, it's like a nursery rhyme if he really writes it."

"Then tell me."

"Okay." Zhang Xiaobao responded and began to imitate Xiaoyuan and said, "Babe, look at how round the moon is tonight, and I suddenly had an idea, haha, I'm so laughing to death."

"Haha, what happened later?" Wang Juan also laughed twice.

"Later, our Xiaobei asked Xiaoyuan if you are sick. Today is the sixth day of the lunar month, please find a full moon for me to see. Haha, oh, I can't do it anymore."

After Zhang Xiaobao said that, he laughed again, and Wang Juan pursed her lips hard, her face flushed.

Zhang Xiaobao then learned from Xiaoyuan, "The moon is full when my heart is full, and I wrote a poem to chant the moon, which is about the moon."

"Then you praise me. I'm hungry and want to eat eggplant boxes. I'll have someone make a copy and I'll send it to you after you praise me." Zhang Xiaobao imitated Xiaobei's voice again.

Wang Juan listened to Zhang Xiaobao's words and pinched his thighs hard with his hands, "What?"

"Then Xiaoyuan pulled Xiaobei not allowed her to leave, and promised a lot of benefits. He promised his eleven guards to ask Xiaobei to order him. Xiaobei then barely stayed to listen. You don't know what Xiaoyuan said. Oh, I'll take a break."

Zhang Xiaobao said that, and fell to the ground and rolled hard.

Wang Juan stopped urging him at this time and tried his best to endure it to prevent him from being like Zhang Xiaobao.

After a while, Zhang Xiaobao grinned and stopped with a painful expression, "Calm down, be calm, smile again, your intestines will break my laughter. Listen, Xiaoyuan said that the moon was not round last night, but today the moon was round and round. The weaver girl's tears fell from the galaxy, and the moon sea once floated on Chang'e silk. Don't say that it is not easy to tie the magpie on the bridge, but it is difficult to pound the medicine. Gods have their own suffering, but mortals can sleep together. Xiaobei, are you sleepy? Go to sleep? You are next to the wall, I am outside you, blocking the wind. Xiaobei, stay away from me, I heard what you said colder. I really went to eat, do you eat? Do you don't eat it? I won't bring you a portion if you don't eat it hahaha..."

Another day, the boat Li Bai finally approached the dock of Jilizhou. When everyone was on the boat, they were very curious about this place. They all said that Jilizhou was poor in the past, but later when the governor Zhang and Wang Zhanjun came, they became rich.

Listening to the ears is false, and seeing to the eyes is true. Everyone does not know how poor Jilizhou was before, but at this time they saw the prosperity.

Anzhou is located north of the Yangtze River. There are large rivers passing through the river. There are many people coming and going, and it is quite prosperous. It is much better than the places in the west. It is often heard that the north is bitter and cold, but now in Jilizhou, you can't see any bitter and cold appearance.

People came and went on the docks in Jili State, and the people carrying the living shouted and rushed to a spacious place on the shore where there were countless cars and horses, and they would leave every time they loaded.

On the shore, there are many restaurants and inns, restaurants and tea shops, and there is a long street where people are coming and hawking becomes a tide.

Li Yu once again warned Li Bai, who looked curious, that "Xiaobao and Juanjuan like to do the most is to make a poor place rich and let the people have a good life. In ordinary times, what they would rather hear is the homely routine that a certain person said, saying how good their life is in their homes, rather than listening to the gods or not.

Wherever the two families of Zhang and Wang have served as officials, the people will not worship gods and worship gods, and wherever King Zhang has lived, all the people will be promoted to smoke. If you prepare the lives of the people in a certain place and get a real formula for the people, you don’t have to go to Xiaobao and Juanjuan. They will send someone to come to you and arrange a larger official for you. Six officials have already received this treatment."

Li Bai was indeed shocked by what he saw in front of him. He looked around and asked in confusion: "Why don't you see the children? Can they really arrange for officials to do it?"

"Where is class, do you have no school in Anzhou?" Li Yu asked back.

"I didn't care, and no one mentioned it." Li Bai really didn't care about such things. Xu, who was standing next to him, leaned into Li Bai's ear and said, "Husband, the same is true for Anzhou. My father would take out several thousand dollars to the school every month to participate in the Chaoyang Operation. My husband was busy and never knew."

Li Bai's face turned red and then turned white again. He suddenly remembered what Li Yu said just now. Xiaobao and Juanjuan like to do practical things. When they meet, if they ask, they can't say it, wouldn't they lose a good opportunity?

Li Yu said at this time: "It would be too easy for Xiaobao and Juanjuan to arrange an official position for someone. The nine little kids from the two families are now from fourth-rank literary officials, and there are also seven or eight-rank actual positions in hand. Taibai has to work hard."

Li Bai responded repeatedly, thinking about finding Xu Guiduo to ask about specific things, especially those related to people's livelihood.

"I'll send someone to send a letter to Xiaobao and the others so that they can know in advance." Li Yu said, waved his hand and asked someone from a distance to come over. He gave a few instructions and the man quickly left.

Before Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan could wait for Li Yu's letter, they first waited for three bad news.

The three news arrived almost at the same time, not far apart for a quarter of an hour.

One from the other side of the Nihe River, one from the capital city, and the other was sent by a merchant from the east of Jiangnan.

Three letters were placed on the table, Zhang Xiaobao looked at Wang Juan, pointed to the one on the far left, and said, "The news came from the capital that people from the Turks suddenly gathered to go further north, and sent a letter to Li Longji, saying that he was willing to be a minister and asked Li Longji to send someone to govern the place.

Li Longji was obviously unhappy. He was gone. Who was sent to govern the officials? It seemed that the Zuo Xianwang Que Teqin was not willing to accept it. He would rather risk the cold of the north than really join the Tang Dynasty. What do you think?"

Wang Juan bit her lip and exhaled a heavy breath with her nose. "Is there a mountain there? It's not easy to climb over the mountain. Now I don't have time to deal with them and let them suffer a little more. When I finish the work of Silla, I will see if they are really determined to be hostile.

The second letter said that Silla and the Nihe River on our side were in conflict. The people of Silla were unwilling to clear the river and gathered there to hinder construction. This is the attitude of King Silla. There are now many mountains and few plains. Do you think you can fight or not? If you fight, I will mobilize the army immediately."

After saying the second letter, the two people looked at the third letter. The letter was written by a merchant from Jiangnan East. In the past, many large ships wanted to join forces with local merchants to explore overseas, seeking to dock on Xinyuan Island and replenish supplies.

"Why do I think they have agreed on it? No need to worry about it. Tell the merchants in Jiangnan Dongdao not to cooperate with the *** people, otherwise there will be no good fruits to eat. If you are willing to go on an adventure, go by yourself. I don't believe that their current ship can run to Malacca without the help of our people.

There is no hurry to do things about the Turks. It is not suitable for survival at all. You dare to go north and freeze them to death. Didn’t they give up the place? Tell our Fengzhou people to organize armed guards and invite other merchants to enter the Turks and open up the ranch."

Zhang Xiaobao lit his hands on his face. Wang Juan knew that he was really angry, and some people just didn't cry until they saw the coffin.

"So we have to take care of Silla now?"

"Yes, Silla, the army does not need to recruit too many. There is only 3,000 people. Let's go and see first. If it can be solved without force, then there will be no fight. But the river must be connected, otherwise the transportation needs to be around a large bay." Zhang Xiaobao gritted his teeth.

It was even later. I was sleepy at seven o'clock, and I was one thousand words short of it. I wanted to take a 20-minute slept and I had already slept.
Chapter completed!
