Chapter 1120 Watching him build tall buildings, watching him entertain guests
"The mage's eyes are the clearest I've ever seen."
When going out, Xincheng whispered.
"Because the mage doesn't have the thoughts of those sleazy dogs, and he is dedicated to serving the Buddha."
"But is it fun for him to live like this?"
Life in the new city can be called rich and noble. If she is willing, the celebrity circle in Chang'an City is looking forward to it, and she will no longer be lonely.
Jia Ping'an said: "The simpler and simpler you live, the happier you will be!"
Xincheng was taken aback.
"Trust me, the simpler the merrier."
Xincheng shook his head, "But I also live a simple life, why not be happy?"
Because you don't have someone next to your pillow.
Jia Pingan said: "It's just because you think too much."
Xincheng Nu, "When did I think too much?"
"Many times."
Jia Pingan said with a smile: "When people have money, they think about using it. They think about using money to obtain all kinds of comfort and enjoyment. But there is a limit to human happiness. When you feel that the happiness that can be bought with power and money in the world When you are bored, there is nothing in this world that can make you happy, and that is the limit."
Later generations are talking about the threshold.
When the various sensory stimuli that a thing can bring to you reach the threshold, you will naturally feel bored.
But there are only so many things in the world that can bring you happiness. If you have enjoyed the top, you will never find happiness again.
Xincheng was taken aback, "What about the common people?"
"People!" Jia Pingan thought for a while, "People are at the bottom, they know their limits, and their expectations are so much, just food and clothing. When expectations are low, there will be surprises and happiness everywhere in life. And The expectations of noble people are high, and most of what life rewards them is disappointment."
Xincheng looked at him sideways, "Xiao Jia, what you said... sounded like a wise man. No, a wise man would not be able to say such words."
Jia Ping'an laughed and said, "It's just some life experiences."
In his previous life, he was deeply troubled by anxiety and couldn't extricate himself. He was struggling with all kinds of thoughts, just trying to get rid of this pain. During this process, he pondered many life problems.
"So what?"
"Simple, contented."
Xincheng lowered his head silently, "Are you content and happy?"
“Greed is like fire, if not curbed it will start a prairie fire; desire is like water, if not curbed it will spread to the heavens.”
After Jia Pingan finished speaking, he walked forward. After walking for a while, he found no movement behind him. Looking back, Xincheng was staring at him blankly.
These words actually shocked Xincheng.
So, is your understanding of this world so profound?
No, it's human nature!
Jia Pingan was surprised and smiled, "What's wrong?"
Xincheng shook his head, "It's fine."
The two left the temple, Xincheng said: "The spring is beautiful, I want to enjoy the spring."
Spring does not come out.
Jia Ping'an doesn't care.
Xincheng said: "The carriage goes back first, there are too many guards, go back."
Today's weather... is really nice.
The sky was slightly covered with mist, looking hazy. You can feel the moisture when you reach out.
But the Misty Rain in the Central Plains is different from the filaments in the Central Plains, but...
"It's raining!"
The light rain was sparse, which reminded Jia Ping'an of the advertisement on the telephone pole.
"Is there an umbrella?"
Everyone shook their heads.
The umbrella is in the carriage, and now the carriage is gone.
Xincheng's hair was slightly damp, and her face was glowing with water, making her look extremely white and tender.
Jia Pingan took off his coat and put it on her, "It's cold, don't catch a cold."
He moved habitually, but he didn't see the moisture in Xincheng's eyes.
A group of people entered the city, Jia Pingan sent Xincheng outside the mansion, just about to leave, Xincheng said: "You are all wet, go in and change your clothes before leaving."
Huang Shu: "..."
Princess, you invited Mr. Zhao into your house to change clothes?
Xincheng dialect was spoken before she felt it was wrong. She lowered her eyes slightly, "It's not close to go home from here. If you are sick, I will feel uneasy."
is fine too.
Jia Ping'an didn't think there was anything wrong.
After entering, he asked: "Just find a clean clothes for the servants and guards at home."
Xincheng shook his head, "There's no need for that, Huang Shu, let them go to the Dongxi Market to buy clothes."
There are merchants who make ready-to-wear in Dongxi City, and there are all kinds of sizes.
is fine too.
Xincheng went in first to change clothes, and when he came out, he was dressed in light clothes, which made him look a little more delicate.
"Ahh!"
The weather was still a little cold, and Jia Ping'an felt chills all over after the rain.
Damn it, the young man is strong, I'm not that old!
Thirty-year-old Master Jia feels that he is still strong.
Xincheng hurriedly said: "You have caught a cold, go and call a doctor."
"No need!"
Jia Ping'an didn't think this was the case, "Just ask the kitchen to cook a bowl of **** soup."
In later generations, he dealt with it like this after being exposed to rain in cold weather, and the effect was really good.
Xincheng hurriedly ordered people to do it.
The wet and cold feeling on his body was too uncomfortable, and Jia Ping'an was restless.
Xincheng felt anxious, "I was caught in the rain in early summer, and I had a fever that night, and I was groggy for several days. I almost couldn't pass it. Xiao Jia, how do you feel?"
"I'm okay."
Jia Pingan just felt a little drowsy. After the emperor fell ill, he seemed to be calm, but he didn't sleep well for the past few days, thinking about all kinds of possibilities.
In a daze, he thought of many things.
Approximately half asleep and half awake.
—Meiniang, from now on, you are in the previous court, and you just need to report your daily affairs to me.
-yes.
Subsequently, Ajie became the master of the court, and the emperor hid behind her as a behind-the-scenes.
Both the husband and wife thought it would be good, but what they never expected was that Li Zhi left first. After losing the emperor, the elder sister who had been in charge of the government for a long time was stunned.
"How do I?"
On the one hand, there is the temptation of power, and on the other hand, the traditional father dies and sons succeed.
"The sun and the moon are flying in the sky, Zhao, I am Wu Zhao!"
The empress stood on the high platform, and the courtiers knelt down one after another.
"Meet Your Majesty!"
A group of men knelt in front of Ajie.
This huge empire ushered in a queen.
Sister, this is inappropriate...
Jia Pingan was in a daze and wanted to stop Ajie from ascending the throne.
Seeing him drowsy, Xincheng got up and came over.
"Xiao Jia."
She reached out to touch Jia Ping'an's forehead.
The slightly cold hand touched Jia Ping'an's forehead, and he was caught immediately.
Xincheng was startled, and saw Jia Pingan raised his head and stared at her fiercely.
Immediately after he pulled hard, Xincheng fell into his arms involuntarily.
She sat on Jia Ping'an's legs and subconsciously hugged his neck.
"Xiao Jia, it's me!"
Xincheng was frightened by the fierce eyes.
Jia Ping'an's eyes were bloodshot, and Xincheng swears that she saw a murderous intent just now.
Xiao Jia actually wanted to kill me?
Xincheng suddenly felt very sad.
Jia Ping'an's eyes froze for a moment, then slowly softened, "Xincheng..."
So Xiao Jia was confused?
Xincheng was inexplicably happy.
Immediately she felt something was wrong.
Jia Ping'an actually put his arms around her waist.
The two of them are almost in love with each other.
Looked at each other.
Xincheng's red lips are slightly parted, and the white teeth are shining.
The long eyelashes blinked anxiously.
There are more waves in the eyes, looking weak, it reminds people of a small white flower.
Jia Ping'an's hand suddenly tightened.
Xincheng let out a soft cry, and stuck his whole body on Jia Pingan's body, his head was slightly higher than Jia Pingan's. She looked down at Jia Pingan, her face flushed.
The breath of the two hit each other's face, slightly burning.
Jia Ping'an slipped his hand and lightly touched Xincheng's buttocks.
Xincheng straightened his body like an electric shock, and his lips touched Jia Pingan's forehead.
She felt anxious and sat down.
After sitting down, the two of them were facing each other, their eyes were facing each other, and their lips almost touched each other's lips.
Jia Ping'an's eyes suddenly became more aggressive.
Xincheng's hands and feet were weak, and he wanted to say no, but he couldn't make a sound when he opened his mouth.
Xiao Jia...
She looked at the approaching face, her heart was beating so fast that she couldn't tell the difference.
"Princess!"
Someone is coming outside.
In an instant, Xincheng was like a frightened deer. He let go, jumped up suddenly, and returned to his place to sit down.
"What is it?"
The noble princess came back again, except for the blush on her complexion, there was no sign of anything wrong.
Huang Shu came in, "Princess, I bought the clothes."
Won't you come back later?
Jia Pingan felt that Huang Shu really didn't know how to wink at people, so he couldn't help thinking that Xu Xiaoyu and her problems should be carefully considered.
Xincheng stood up, "The hot water is ready, Xiao Jia, let's take a bath."
Well!
Huang Shu was surprised, "Princess..."
Leaving a man here to change clothes is already great, let him take a bath...
What is rhythm?
Huang Shu didn't dare to think about it.
Jia Pingan nodded, "Alright."
Xincheng lowered his eyes slightly, not daring to look into his eyes.
When passing by, Xincheng's hand was shaken, and he stomped his feet immediately.
Huang Shu: "..."
When did the princess become so young?
The bathing room is elegant.
Most of the furniture in Jia’s family is precious wood, which made Jia Ping’an a half-expert in wood. Just by looking at it, you can tell that the wood here is very valuable.
The bathtub is also made of precious wood.
It was steaming inside, and there was a bath towel hanging beside it.
There is actually a stool underneath.
Jia Pingan stood up and found that he was too tall, and the bathtub was suitable for people who were shorter than him.
The water was steaming, and some dried flowers were sprinkled inside.
I'm going to play flower bath?
Jia Pingan got into the tub, sniffed, and found the smell familiar.
Why does it look like the fragrance of Xincheng?
Could this be the bathtub in Xincheng?
Jia Ping'an's body shook.
…
"Princess."
Huang Shu was a little uneasy, especially after seeing Xincheng in a trance.
"What is it?"
Xincheng asked casually.
Her mind is full of aggressive eyes from before.
And...Xiao Jia is really bold, dare to touch my...
Huang Shu said: "Princess, they took Zhao Guogong to your bathroom."
"Um!"
Xincheng's willow eyebrows are upside down, and the majesty descends instantly.
Those two maids are going to be unlucky.
Huang Shu explained: "They thought it was the princess who wanted to take a bath."
Xincheng had a straight face.
"Scream!"
What?
Huang Shu was stunned.
Scolding... Isn't this a penalty of three glasses of wine?
"Princess, then... the tub needs to be changed?"
That is a special bathtub for Xincheng, not to mention men, even women are not allowed to go in.
Huang Shu thinks it should be changed.
There are experts in making bathtubs in the palace, and depending on how popular the new city is, you can get a better one by just asking.
Xincheng frowned slightly, "It's not easy to build a bathtub. The emperor saves so much, but I don't want to waste money."
A bathtub is not wasteful, is it?
Huang Shu lowered her eyebrows and said, "Yes."
Later she went to wait outside the bathroom.
"Duke Zhao hasn't come out yet?"
The maid outside shook her head.
Huang Shu suddenly realized, "No one is waiting for you!"
Nobles have to be waited on when they take a bath, and they must be women.
Huang Shu pointed to a maid and said, "Go in and serve Zhao Guogong."
The maid blushed, and excitement flashed in her eyes.
"who?"
Jia Pingan, who was taking a bath, saw the maid come in, subconsciously retracted into the tub.
The maid said shyly: "Duke, I'm here to wait for you to take a bath."
What a **** thing!
Jia Pingan pointed to the outside, "I never need anyone to take a shower, go out."
The maid thought he was just showing off, so she came over.
"go out!"
Jia Ping'an's voice and expression were all serious.
The maid realized it was true.
She went out resentfully, Huang Shu had heard the movement, so she went back to report.
"Mr. Zhao Guo refused to ask someone to serve him, saying that he always bathed by himself."
Xiao Jia is so self-conscious?
If judged by the eyes of future generations, the lives of the nobles of this era can be described as chaotic. For example, maids serve them when they get up and get dressed, wash up, eat...even go to the bathroom for convenience.
During these processes, once the man is in heat, he will hold the maid hehehe.
Such things are commonplace, and everyone is used to it. If you are not like this, you are an outlier.
So Jia Ping'an's performance shocked Xincheng.
So Xiao Jia is this kind of person?
Jia Ping'an is thinking about the aristocratic treatment in this era.
To take a bath and have to be served by a woman, how does this feel like going to the big sword.
But the big sword is a business, but this is a common practice.
After bathing and changing clothes, Jia Pingan felt energetic.
"hungry!"
After seeing Xincheng, Jia Pingan asked for food.
"Set a banquet."
Xincheng ordered.
"What kind of banquet are you throwing?" Jia Pingan sat down casually, "Just let them make a bowl of Hutou, or make mutton soup and add a piece of cake."
He was a little lazy, and he couldn't help being happy when he found Xincheng's eyes flickering and avoiding his own sight.
"New City."
Xincheng hummed.
Jia Ping'an said: "You don't need to worry about Your Majesty, you will get better after a while of recuperation."
"Um!"
"Well... spring is here, why are there no flowers and plants here?"
The flowers and plants are in the backyard!
Xincheng was silent.
Jia Ping'an also felt that he had made a slip of the tongue.
"The weather is good, you should go out for a walk when you turn around, don't stay at home."
Otaku is not a derogatory term in this era. If you are capable, you will live forever, and the neighbors and relatives around you will not blink their eyelids.
But Jia Pingan knew that he was depressed, "You can go out and have a walk."
"Um!"
Xincheng suddenly felt something was wrong.
I keep answering, why do I look like a bride?
"There are many benefits to going out for a walk, good mood and good health. It's not a problem at home, you can walk more."
Xincheng didn't want to respond at first, but he hummed again out of nowhere.
After Jia Ping'an left, Xincheng sat there with a beautiful face that was almost perfect. She didn't know what she was thinking, her eyes were more shy, her face was more flushed, like a painting.
Drizzle has been falling, looking up, the outdoors are full of water vapor, the nose is full of the smell of damp wood, and the ears are almost indistinguishable rustling.
The whole world seemed to have come to a standstill.
Huang Shu came to the door, raised her eyes, and saw a painting.
…
The emperor lay down, but the queen took over the scepter and quickly stabilized the court.
Once the court is stable, the world will be stable.
"This is an opportunity. It is reasonable for Jia Pingan to jump up and down, but he... ran away again today?"
Cui Chen asked.
Lu Shunzai nodded, "Since the day before yesterday, he has been the same as usual. He went to the Ministry of War for an interview every day, and then he found an excuse to compile a book and left. It is reasonable to enter the palace today, but he didn't."
"The empress is in charge of the court. This is a good opportunity for him. He can collude with a group of courtiers to get closer to the empress and gradually grow in size."
"This person, is he playing hard to get?"
"Most likely, who would miss such an opportunity?"
…
"What? Say I should form a party?"
Facing the news sent by Xu Jingzong, Jia Pingan couldn't help laughing.
Xu Jingzong said angrily: "The old man said that you may do other things, but you don't like troublesome things. There are many things about forming a party. You have to drink with those courtiers every day and hook them up...Others are angry You can't get angry yet... Everyone is willing to do such things, but you are not willing!"
"Grand Xu really knows me!"
My sister is in charge of the government, so many people are watching, wanting to see what style and rhythm this queen is.
Different from the past when the emperor could listen to the government, this time the emperor has no control over anything, so everyone thinks that the queen will panic, or at least feel guilty.
The Tubo envoy thought so, and then bowed his head and left after what the queen said.
This queen is not simple.
"Li Yi's mansion has been very proud recently, and the court with his gang in a mess."
Xu Jingzong became angry, "That lowly dog slave, how dare he talk to the old man today...I will wait for the old man to deal with him later."
"Grand Xu, don't worry about it, just watch him torment."
"No need to worry about it?" Xu Jingzong felt that Jia Ping'an had drunk too much, "The queen is your elder sister. Do you think it's a good thing for Li Yifu to jump up and down like this? He is bringing enemies to the queen."
Look, Li Yifu's fault is all instigated by the queen.
Everything is the queen's fault, the emperor is flawless.
Li Zhi mastered the balancing technique with such proficiency that even the first emperors couldn't match it.
A sister has now become the vanguard, and Li Zhi has become the behind-the-scenes.
How will this situation develop?
"Li Yifu is proud, but the old man is frustrated."
Xu Jingzong blurted out his frustration.
"Watch him build tall buildings, watch him entertain guests."
Jia Pingan said: "Tomorrow I will go to the court."
…
On the second day, the DPRK and China were discussing matters.
"Queen, Zhao Guogong is asking to see you."
Li Yifu, who was frothing, was taken aback for a moment.
The queen was also taken aback.
Since the emperor fell, Jia Pingan has never entered the court. In the first few days, he squatted at the Ministry of War. After the emperor's condition stabilized, he started to study books every day.
Jia Pingan like this made everyone forget his tough record.
Li Ji glanced at Li Yifu's cheek, which made Li Yifu hate him.
What Liu Rengui thought of was the years when he fought with Jia Pingan in the country of Wa, that murderous Zhao Guogong! palpitating.
But Jia Pingan, who returned to Chang'an, seemed harmless. It wasn't until he slapped Li Yifu's cheeks that his cheeks were swollen, and everyone remembered...
Dou Dexuan said quietly: "Duke Zhao killed people outside the imperial city."
Xu Jingzong made up the knife, "It was still under the watchful eyes of everyone."
"Queen, Duke Zhao is here."
