Just three changed to four, but they pointed to the three brothers vividly. How could Li Sipang not understand?

Crown Prince Li Chengqian is the first disciple, with good talent and established his status as an heir early; the second disciple is him, Li Tai and Li Sipang, with a very literary talent and deeply favored by His Majesty Li Er, but he invisibly neglected the boss, which also made him feel competing for the throne.

So, the first disciple and the second disciple fought to the point where they were incompatible with water and fire. In this way, they also cut off their hope of becoming higher.

If His Majesty Li Er has the intention of protecting his son, he will not let anyone take power. Because whoever takes power, another person will most likely be killed.

If I were my father, I would not want my sons to kill each other and reappear the tragedy of flesh and blood! Li Sipang's face was solemn, and he finally realized this level.

In the end, there was only one result left. The throne was neither passed on to the eldest nor the second, and it was all for the sake of saving their lives. The cowardly and honest third party was the object that had to be chosen.

To put it bluntly, the more I compete with Li Chengqian, the farther I will be from the throne. If the quarrel is so irrelevant, there will be no hope.

Similarly, the relationship with King Li Zhi of Jin is the same. No matter what you think in your heart, you should be harmonious and close on the surface, showing the affection of "friendly brothers and respectful brothers".

So that's it, so that's it! I'm really stupid. I didn't expect that this level was. I just thought that I could be inherited by the throne by pulling my elder brother off. But I didn't expect that I was heading for a hopeless dead end.

Li Sipang finally figured it out, and his eyes looked at Xu Qilin also became strange. He didn't think that this was what Xu Qilin thought of, but instead pressed the pot on the head of Lu Yuxian, which did not exist.

Perhaps it was because Lu Yuxianchang really had such a painful experience that made Xu Qilin feel something.

But no matter what, I finally didn't make the biggest mistake. When I came to Luoyang, I avoided Li Chengqian's suspicion and avoided the possibility of getting into evil with him.

Looking at what just happened, the elder brother was really not ordinary, which made the father angry. He killed Qin Ying and other Taoist priests, and severely scolded the elder brother. He didn't have to do anything, which made the elder brother's position in the father's heart a step further.

It should be his own departure that made the eldest brother a little unscrupulous? The third brother is still young. If he has to be favored by his father in a few years, he should have turned his resentment to him, right?

Li Sipang breathed a long sigh, stood up and bowed to Xu Qilin. Xu Qilin was so panicked that he hurriedly stood up and said repeatedly: "What is your intention? You have killed the official."

"I just woke up now, I am really stupid." Li Sipang said sincerely and gratefully: "Qi Lin repeatedly advised me, but I only realized my good intentions today. Therefore, it has not made a big mistake. It is really too light to express my gratitude."

Xu Qilin also bowed deeply, and after returning the gift, he spoke, "Your Highness is so serious. With your wisdom, filial piety and kindness, you should make your Majesty be a kind father and be good at it all your life!"

Li Sipang nodded vigorously and said, "This is very good, I dare not do it."

After sitting down again, the conversation between the two became much more relaxed. Li Sipang opened his heart and understood the truth. He asked Xu Qilin for advice on how to manage Luozhou well.

In fact, Luoyang is now in a very embarrassing position. The political capital is Chang'an, and the cities with developed commercial economy are Yangzhou and Suzhou. However, Luoyang has a broken palace and a small population, with only one honor for the Canal Transportation Station.

Xu Qilin still had some solutions to this. He developed industry and commerce, renovated urban facilities with money, and gradually returned to the prosperous period of the Sui Dynasty. He could still do it within ten years.

Moreover, when the Western Regions settle down, His Majesty Li Er turned his attention to Goryeo, and Luoyang's status will rise online and become the largest logistics base.

Of course, this takes time. As long as Li Sipang can tolerate it, his political achievements will not be lacking. Far away in Luoyang, if he has political achievements and reputation, he probably should be suspicious and unable to sit still.

But as long as Li Tai does not act and is at ease to do practical things here, Li Chengqian's suspicion and grudge have nothing to do with him, and it will not affect His Majesty Li Er's decision.

Besides, helping Li Sipang is equivalent to helping him. Xu Qilin doesn't like the scumbag Li Zhi at all, and he doesn't even think of him as a cheap man.

After listening to several suggestions put forward by Xu Qilin, Li Sipang accepted them happily. At this time, he was sure that Xu Qilin seemed to have not taken the sidelines, but was his most powerful supporter.

This is also good. Xu Qilin will not be retaliated against by Prince Li Chengqian, nor will his father be dissatisfied. Xu Qilin is valued by his father and promoted step by step, and will help him more in the future.

Xu Qilin of course believed that if Li Sipang did not compete for the legislative power as in history, there was a high possibility of obtaining the throne. Judging from Li Chengqian's current performance, it really made him more confident.

Moreover, Xu Qilin felt that he couldn't speak, and that was the matter of the boss in the court. It didn't matter if he got closer to Li Sipang, who was in Luoyang!

After talking with Li Sipang for a while, they were very harmonious and harmonious. Both of them were quite satisfied with the result. Then, Xu Qilin stood up and said goodbye, and also politely declined Li Sipang's invitation banquet.

Li Sipang didn't care about this. Xu Qilin had already given him substantial help, and this kind of act of showing affection could be avoided. Moreover, Xu Qilin avoided suspicion, which was also beneficial to him.

Xu Qilin left the palace and went back to the house he had just bought. Luoyang was not as good as Chang'an, and the housing prices were still at a low stage. He had money, so he simply bought a house larger than Chang'an, which was a good location in Luoyang.

Xu Qilin is optimistic about the future of Luoyang. He has a place to stay here, which is much more comfortable than staying in an office or a hotel.

In addition to buying a house, Xu Qilin also bought two shops in the southern and northern cities, bought a piece of open land outside the city, and gradually laid out his own industry in Chang'an in Luoyang.

When he returned to the courtyard, Xu Qilin went directly to the study room, lay half lying in the rocking chair, drinking the tea served by his servants, and resting leisurely and caring for the spirit.

Should we bring Jiali's two girls, Jiani, or should they serve them comfortably, especially Scarlett. Xu Qilin also bought a servant maid, but when he was instructed, he always felt that he couldn't be able to handle it.

But when he thought about it, Xu Qilin felt it was too early. In a few days, he would go downstream and inspect whether the arrangements of other sections of the canal transport are implemented and what are the shortcomings.

Moreover, in more than two months, he will have to go back to Chang'an to celebrate the New Year with his relatives! There are no planes, trains, cars, etc., so he summoned the two girls and took them back. It is not enough time to mess around on the road!

Thinking of this, Xu Qilin had to give up for the time being. Let’s see if the situation next year is still necessary to be busy outside. His Majesty Li Er has no accurate letter.

In fact, the environment in Luoyang is better than that in Chang'an. At least the summer is not as hot as it is, and the winter is not as cold and humid.

"Alang, Chen Ertie is looking for a meeting outside." A maid came in and reported timidly.

Xu Qilin opened his half-closed eyes, stood up reluctantly, and went to the flower hall.

Chen Ertie was the one who escaped from famine to Chang'an. There was an older brother named Chen Datie. Seeing that they were working hard, Xu Qilin simply set up a contract team to renovate the houses for people.

For example, when it is hot in summer, it is necessary to install earthen air conditioners for the homes of powerful and wealthy people. When the weather turns cooler, Xu Qilin taught them to set up a fire kang, a fire wall, and install an iron stove for burning coal.

There are really a lot of work. Who makes Chang'an rich and noble families? Even some renovations in the palace will be contracted by them.

Of course, this is all backer with Xu Qilin. Although it is not heavy enough, it can be said and recruited many projects.

Xu Qilin bought a house in Luoyang, and it also needed to be renovated. He felt it was troublesome and after promoting coal burning, there were a lot of work in Luoyang, so he simply divided the contract team into two, and Chen Ertie led some people to Luoyang to make money.

In the flower hall, Chen Ertie sat only half of his butt. When he saw Xu Qilin coming in, he immediately stood up and saluted.

"There is no need to be restrained here." Xu Qilin smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I just arrived and I had to rest for two days, so there is no need to be so anxious."

Chen Ertie smiled silly and said, "When you say Xu Lang, we are not tired, but we are afraid that we will delay Xu Lang's affairs."

"Sit." Xu Qilin pointed to the chair, sat down in the main seat, pondered for a while, and said, "You are here to live in the workshop in Dayingku outside the city. Someone has already visited the place and I guess you can buy a suitable house soon. Then you will move out."

"It depends on Xu Lang's arrangement." Chen Ertie sat half of his butt, owed his body again, bowed and thanked him.

Xu Qilin continued: "First change this house and follow the shape of Chang'an. Then, the Wei Palace, which has already agreed. There may be more work in the future, and you must do it quickly and well. You can recruit workers locally depending on the situation."

Chen Ertie bowed again and said, "Don't worry, Xu Lang, this job must be done quickly and well. I have brought more than a dozen people, each of whom is already an expert, so it's okay to lead a team."

"That's good." Xu Qilin nodded and said, "What materials are needed? Go to the housekeeper to pay for it. After the wages are settled, you can pay the materials and pay them back."

After pausing, Xu Qilin smiled and said, "If there is too much work here and enough expenses, it is okay to bring your family back. If you buy a house and land, you can also borrow money from a certain place."

"Xu Lang is so kind." Chen Ertie thanked: "Everyone is thinking about your good deeds, and I think it's better to go home and farm now than to farm."

Xu Qilin pondered for a moment and said, "If you want to farm, it's not impossible. You can find a way. There should be no big problem in Luozhou."

Chen Ertie thanked him deeply and stood up and left. Xu Qilin called a servant and took them to the workshop outside the city for a while.

Just as Xu Qilin was about to return to the study, Wu Song came over and reported that Zuixiaolou had brought food again.

This Zuixiao Tower was not opened by outsiders, but also by Boss Xu. If you want to say that they are the businessman's mind, and the new dishes are very popular in Chang'an, he opened a branch in Luoyang and was managed by relatives.

After Xu Qilin arrived in Luoyang, this relative also received a letter from Boss Xu and came to see Xu Qilin. Afterwards, Zuixiaolou often brought food to express his closeness and attentiveness.

Xu Qilin was not very righteous and insisted on giving money. He was all acquaintances, so wouldn’t he be unfamiliar? Anyway, Zuixiaolou would not suffer any loss. If something happened, Xu Qilin would naturally help settle it.

Seeing that it was almost dinner time, Xu Qilin asked the servants to take the meal to his study and specially ordered to add two more pots of wine.

After the weather became colder, the night came much earlier.

Xu Qilin returned to the study, and the maid had already lit the candle, waiting for his orders.

"Let's retreat first, I'll call you if you have something to do." Xu Qilin waved his maid back and closed the door again.

Just as they sat at the table, a cool breeze blew up, and the candlelight shook violently for a few times, and Daya and Xiaoye appeared one after another.

Xu Qilin smiled faintly, reached out to signal, and said, "Sit down and have a meal!"

That's right, Xu Qilin left Chang'an and brought these two ghosts with him. He was worried that he would not be there, and no matter how evil spirits these two ghosts had, it would be bad for scaring their family members.

Daya was not polite either. She sat opposite Xu Qilin, and consciously reached out to get a pot of wine, without using a glass, and took a sip of it into the spout. As the wine smelled, her eyes lit up.

Xiaoye sat down obediently, picked up the chopsticks, scanned the dishes on the table, held a piece of meat, and stuffed it into his mouth to chew it carefully.

Such a scene is not very common. It is not like a human being. Three meals a day are indispensable. Moreover, Daya and Xiaoye often ask Xu Qilin to be included in the Soul-Retention Card, saying that they are afraid that people with Taoism can see through it.

"You should be able to stay at home for a while, right?" Daya said with a guess: "Since you bought this house, you haven't lived there for a few days."

Xiaoye glanced at Xu Qilin and then picked the dishes he liked.

Xu Qilin thought for a while and said, "If you can stay for more than ten days, you will have to take a boat along the Cao Road to see if the arrangements along the way are complete. In winter, some rivers will freeze and you cannot sail. The canal transportation will start in April next year and cannot be delayed."

Daya curled her lips and teased: "I'm not old and I have a lot of things to do. I'm not short of money, why are you busy with?"

Xu Qilin smiled and said, "Who made us have great skills? I can't lack it!"

Xiaoye raised his head and stuck out his tongue, showing that he was contempt for bragging, which was quite normal, and his tongue was not on his chin.

Xu Qilin didn't care and looked at Daya and Xiaoye thoughtfully. After a while, he spoke: "By the way, you two seem to be very moist in the Soul-Retention Card, and your condition looks like it has changed."

"What kind of change?" Daya suddenly felt a sudden heart, but pretended to be indifferent, and joked: "I am more beautiful, are you a little distracted?"

Xiaoye looked at his sister, then looked at Xu Qilin, and started giggling.

Xu Qilin rolled his eyes and said to himself: You female ghost, I don’t want to go to you for nothing. She is quite narcissistic!
