~~~~~~

It was already late at night when we left the palace.

The bleak autumn wind was blowing, bringing up many fallen leaves on the street corners.

The sky was a little gloomy, the air was already filled with a moist smell, and it looked like it was going to rain.

Tonight, although he drank a lot of wine, Li Yuanqing's mental consciousness was exceptionally clear.

For a moment, but only for a moment, the little emperor Tianqi also showed that he wanted to pursue upward.

But~~, more often than not, he is still confused by the prosperity in front of him, and is willing to choose to sink and continue to sink.

As for Eunuch Wei...

"call."

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but let out a long breath.

There are too many things that are destined to be beyond the reach of human beings. Even if Li Yuanqing is a time traveler, how can it be so easy to change a person or the world?

Back at Sanfu Inn, the first autumn rain in the capital was already falling, and the air was filled with a moist freshness.

At this time, the capital was considered a big city, even one of the best in the world, but because of its humanities, customs, and structural layout, it was very pleasing to the eye, or in other words, comfortable.

Although it was already late at night and it was raining again, there were still many people seeking pleasure because of the neighborhood of Dashilar. The streets were busy with traffic and the flow was endless, reflecting the ambiguous red lanterns on both sides.

, it makes people feel as if they have returned to the red light district of later generations.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile.

It would be better if history is on track.

At the very least, he will have more foresight when making future judgments, and he will be able to maintain sufficient initiative to the greatest extent.

Back in the small courtyard of Tianzihao, Li Yuanqing's clothes had been soaked by the light rain. Yang Jiao's mother hurriedly greeted him, "Yuanqing, look at you, how old you are, how can you still act like a child? This autumn rain

But you can't get wet! If you get sick, it will be troublesome. Come on, I've prepared hot water, let's take a bath first."

Li Yuanqing smiled and let Yang Jiaoniang take off his clothes, and was pulled into the huge bathtub by Yang Jiaoniang.

Seeing that Li Yuanqing was like a wooden man without much reaction, Yang Jiao~mother also came to her senses and said, "What's wrong, Yuan Qing? Did things go wrong tonight?"

Li Yuanqing smiled: "It's not that it's not going well. On the contrary, it's a little too smooth! I still can't come to my senses for a while."

Yang Jiao's mother also took off her clothes and came to the bathtub. While holding a small ladle to help Li Yuanqing's body, she said: "Yuanqing, why do I feel that you seem to be a lot heavier this time in Beijing?"

, is there something bothering you?"

"hehe."

Li Yuanqing smiled, reached into the water with his backhand, and kneaded Yang Jiao's plump buttocks with some force: "Maybe. Didn't Li Bai say? If you are proud of life, you must have all the joy, don't let the golden bottle be empty to the moon!"

~Mom, please come back to Changsheng Island with me during this trip. This place in the capital is no longer a place to stay for a long time!"

Yang Jiao couldn't help but stop her movements and looked into Li Yuanqing's eyes: "Yuan Qing, what happened?"

Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air: "Jiao~Mother, just take a shower. Let's go back to Wuyu Pavilion first. We'll cook some side dishes and we'll talk while eating."

Yang Jiaoniang had already prepared to meet Li Yuanqing...

But at this time, Li Yuanqing actually didn't even think about that aspect, and Yang Jiao's mother didn't dare to neglect anymore. She simply helped Li Yuanqing take a bath, cleaned up quickly, and the two returned to Wuyu Pavilion through the secret passage.

Yang Jiaoniang had already prepared wine and food for Li Yuanqing before, and soon the maid served them.

After eating a few mouthfuls of meat and vegetables and drinking hot wine, Li Yuanqing's spirit had calmed down a lot. He played with Yang Jiaoniang's little hand and asked: "How is Wuyu Pavilion's current business in Jiangnan?"

Yang Jiao's mother said: "It's not bad. Generally speaking, it's almost the same as the one in the capital. However, in terms of making money, the one in the capital is more profitable."

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly.

Although Jiangnan is rich, it is mostly dominated by wealthy merchants, supplemented by merchants and officials.

There are also many wealthy merchants in the capital, but they are mainly officials and merchants.

Although the words "official and business" seem to be just a simple sequence, the underlying meaning is quite different.

The capital, dominated by officials, was the political center of the Ming Dynasty, and its consumption concept also formed a large flow of officials, who were mainly bold and unrestrained.

In comparison, Jiangnan is equally wealthy, but no one's money is blown by the wind. Their consumption philosophy is naturally a little more conservative.

Especially in a business like Wuyu Pavilion.

"Yuanqing, are you in the palace..." Seeing that Li Yuanqing was reluctant to express his feelings, Yang Jiao finally couldn't help but ask.

Li Yuanqing smiled and said, "Jiao~Mother, in the palace, both the emperor and Eunuch Wei still trust me. However, the situation has changed!"

Li Yuanqing said with a long sigh.

"General trend?"

Yang Jiao's mother was a little confused, "Yuan Qing, since the emperor still has a holy love for you and Eunuch Wei also believes in you, why has the situation changed?"

Li Yuanqing smiled and drank a glass of wine: "The tree is so big that it attracts the wind! Eunuch Wei is shining so brightly at this moment! You must leave a way for others to survive!"

"Huh?" Yang Jiao's mother was stunned for a moment and then came back to her senses, "Yuan Qing, you mean..."

Li Yuanqing nodded heavily, "Jiao~Mother, we have made quite a lot of money in the capital these years. At this time of crisis, you should first go to Changsheng Island to avoid the limelight. It may take two to three years in the long term, or one year in the short term.

Within a year and a half, this matter should come to an end."

Yang Jiao mother shook her head vigorously: "Yuan Qing, the more things are like this, how can I leave so easily? Although the capital is at the forefront of the storm, it is also the place with the best information. Yuan Qing, don't worry. Although I, Wu Yu Pavilion

What you are doing is a flesh and blood trade, but you are not without energy. If anyone wants to take action against Wuyu Pavilion, they must think carefully about it first. Besides, as long as you are here, who would dare to take action against Wuyu Pavilion?"

Saying that, Yang Jiao's mother suddenly smiled and said, "By the way, Yuan Qing and Wu Yu Pavilion have had a few new characters come these days. They all come from wealthy families in Suzhou and Hangzhou. May I let you try it tonight?"

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Let's forget it tonight. I'm a little tired. But..."

Li Yuanqing suddenly smiled evilly, "Where did you arrange for the little girl I brought to go? Let her come and take a look tonight. My dear, my dear, I have left her to you these past few days.

Help me train Lisuo."

"Well?"

Yang Jiao~niang immediately understood what Li Yuanqing meant. Even if it was her, her pretty face could not help but turn red. But since Li Yuanqing proposed it, how could she refute it?

He nodded hurriedly, "Yuan Qing, I'll make arrangements right away."

…………

He slept until he woke up naturally. When Li Yuanqing woke up, it was already noon.

After asking several maids to get dressed and help him wash up, Li Yuanqing came to the yard to stretch his hands and feet.

The more difficult the situation becomes, Li Yuanqing does not dare to relax even a little bit. Only by doing his best at all times can he have greater capital and leeway when making choices in the future.

The sun was already very strong at noon, so Li Yuanqing simply ran around in the yard shirtless.

In order to cater to Li Yuanqing's habits, Yang Jiaoniang also made great changes to the backyard of Wuyu Pavilion. The small courtyard where she lived at this time was a large courtyard just outside the door. There were all kinds of fitness equipment, just to facilitate Li Yuanqing's visit to the capital.

There is a place to exercise from time to time.

After running for almost ten miles, Li Yuanqing was already covered in sweat. He went to the side and did about a hundred push-ups and a hundred pull-ups. Then he went to the side to do forward exercises, press his legs, and stretch his joints.

.

At this time, Yang Jiao's mother came in from outside with Yueniang, Cai Zi, Xiao Lian, and a dozen maids and mothers-in-law.

Seeing Li Yuanqing behaving like this, Yang Jiao's mother could not help but be speechless for a moment, and said hurriedly: "Go and serve the master and get dressed. Don't get cold."

"yes."

The maids did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly came to Li Yuanqing and helped Li Yuanqing get dressed.

Li Yuanqing smiled, "Jiao~Mother, I'm not that delicate yet. How about it? What's the news today?"

Yang Jiaoniang waved her hands to let the crowd behind her disperse, and she and Li Yuanqing came to the small table under the eaves in front and sat down.

"Yuanqing, as you said, overall, there has not been much fluctuation. The Eunuch Party has already won the victory. However, at the court meeting early next month, Donglin will definitely not give up. It will be another battle between dragons and tigers.

.”

Li Yuanqing smiled: "They fight with theirs, and we fight with ours. Monitor them closely. If you have any news, report to me at any time. As long as they don't mess with us, they can do whatever they want!"

Yang Jiao's mother nodded, "Don't worry, Yuan Qing. Everything has been arranged. By the way, the Japanese female ninja you sent a few days ago is really capable. She has made many achievements these days.

"

"Kyoko Kubo?"

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile.

Yang Jiao's mother also smiled and nodded, "That's right. She is very talented in this line of work!"

Li Yuanqing smiled and nodded, "Very good. Let's do it tonight. Call her back tonight. I haven't seen her for a long time."

Why didn't Yang Jiao understand Li Yuanqing's thoughts? But she said a little unhappy: "Yuanqing is just a Japanese woman, why don't you give your rain and dew to those little maids?"

Li Yuanqing chuckled, "Jiao~Mother, where did you want to go? It's just official business. I have something to ask her."

With that said, Li Yuanqing hurriedly changed the subject, "By the way, Jiao~Mother, have Mao Shuai and Chen Zhong been contacted? Tonight, I'll treat them to a drink tonight."

Yang Jiao's mother hurriedly said: "We have been contacted. They are still at the same place. Yuanqing, where is the banquet arranged? At Wuyu Pavilion or somewhere else?"
