    In March of the sixth year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty, spring was warm and flowers were blooming, and Luoyang peonies were at their peak.  There is also a peony garden in the Grand View Garden, which is Li Ye's favorite place to stay at this time. She has now fully organized the Grand View Garden, instead of just being limited to one of the four districts in the past.  In Luoyang City, she is also a legendary figure and a common figure. It is difficult to meet her.  Naturally, Luoyang ordered Yang Shenming not to be among them. Therefore, when Yang Shenming held a banquet here to entertain the officials, Li Ye personally came forward to encourage everyone to drink.  Although she was drunk with wine and her face was full of charm, the officials present did not dare to make fun of her.  Everyone knows that this woman is someone whom Ye Chang trusts, and offending Ye Chang, Wei Jian, Li Yong, Huangfu Weiming, etc. is a lesson learned from the past.  What's more, their immediate boss, Yang Shenming, the commander of Luoyang, also has an extraordinary relationship with Ye Chang. Both of them are generals under Li Linfu.  Yang Shenming's elder brother, Yang Shenjin, was recommended by Li Linfu in old records and became the Minister of Household Affairs and the Censor Zhongcheng.  ???????????????????????????????????????????ffi????  Seeing their situation, Li Ye felt both proud and a little disdainful.  Only when she was in front of one of them did she raise her glass from the bottom of her heart: "Mr. Liu, I can't bear the power of wine. But in front of Mr. Liu, I had to drink it all." Just now, when she offered wine to others, she only tasted it briefly, even to Yang.  The same was true for Shen Jin, but only for this Liu Yan, he drank the whole cup and won.  Those officials originally had some evil intentions towards this charming female shopkeeper, but they were afraid of the power of Ye Chang and Yang Shenming and did not dare to take action.  But at this time, they can make a fuss. Even if they can't eat, it's still good to satisfy their cravings.  So someone immediately shouted: "Master Li, what you are doing is wrong. Although Mr. Liu is the captain of Luoyang, Mr. Yang is the order of Luoyang, and his rank is higher than Mr. Liu. When you respect Mr. Yang, you only taste it lightly, but when you respect Mr. Liu, you swallow it deeply.  Could it be that you are bullying Mr. Yang? " After a brief taste and deep swallowing, there was an ambiguous meaning in it. Everyone laughed, including Yang Shenming and the Luoyang captain Liu Yan who was called Mr. Liu. They did not get angry and just waited.  This strange woman with long sleeves and good dancing explained.  Li Ye smiled and said with gleams in his eyes: "This gentleman is wrong. Mr. Yang has just said it. Today we only talk about the friendship between colleagues, not the rank of the official position. Therefore, in the eyes of this slave, I only have Mr. Yang and Mr. Liu, and  There is no Yang Mingfu or Liu Shaofu. Mr. Lang said something inappropriate and should be punished with a glass of wine." The official smiled and drank the glass: "Okay, I will punish you with this drink. But, Mr. Li, you haven't responded to me yet.  "What about Mr. Yang's words?" "Mr. Yang is charming, beautiful, and majestic. I secretly admire him in my heart, but after all, he is not as handsome as Mr. Liu, and he has become a talented person earlier." Li Ye praised the two people in one sentence, and then he started to talk.  Turning around, he added: "It's not for this reason that I respect Mr. Liu and win. It's just because I run the Grand View Garden. Although all the gentlemen are guests, only Mr. Liu gave me two suggestions to make the guests of the Grand View Garden more welcoming."  Duo, loves to spend money. All the gentlemen have great talents, but Nu is a vulgar person who only has eyes for things. Naturally, he treats Mr. Liu even more differently. "Everyone laughed when they heard her laughing at herself.  The official shook his head and said: "If you are a vulgar thing, all the people in the world will be rich." This is the truth. Over the years, Li Ye has been running the Grand View Garden, with an annual income of no less than 100,000 yuan, and Li Ye often spends a considerable amount of it.  Part of it is donated to build bridges and pave roads, especially to adopt abandoned children and orphans who have lost their parents.  Everyone knows that she has good money, and they also know that behind her good money, she uses the money to do good things.  Although behind the scenes was the order from Ye Chang, who was in charge of marching in Liaodong and joined the army, it was Li Ye who was in charge, and Ye Chang didn't even reveal his name.  There are also mean people who secretly whisper that behind this seemingly compassionate move, it is actually a human trafficking business - every one or two months, those children will disappear from Luoyang City, and it is said that they were sent to Liaodong, but who knows  Was he being sold into slavery?  Liu Yan himself knew that the reason why Li Ye treated him differently was not because of his suggestions, but because of Ye Chang.  Because of Wang Changling, he exchanged letters with Ye Chang and discussed some ideas on making money and managing money.  Li Ye was the person who handled these letters. Whether this woman read the contents of these letters or not, she knew that Ye Chang's attitude towards Liu Yan was different from that of ordinary bureaucrats.  Liu Yan drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and a faint bitter taste lingered on the tip of his tongue.  This is wine, not the high-quality liquor brewed by Ye Chang.  High-strength liquor is a very enjoyable good thing for alcoholics, but because it is too easy to get intoxicated, in real banquet occasions, in order to avoid losing etiquette, everyone would rather drink wine.  Seeing Liu Yan finish drinking, Li Ye smiled brightly and was about to speak when he saw a figure wandering in front of the door.  She had eyes and ears in all directions. When she saw the figure, she was startled, then she leaned over to apologize and went out.  This move was a bit rude, and everyone looked towards the door, but all they saw was Li Ye's back.  "This Mr. Li is very informal. We were having a banquet here, but she left just like that."someone muttered.  "If you have hundreds of thousands of dollars of business flowing through your hands every year, I'm afraid it will be the same." Someone else replied.  "Don't talk about this, let's drink, drink." Liu Yan did not participate in this discussion, but was thoughtful.  There weren't many people or things that could make Li Ye leave. Could it be that Yesima from Liaodong returned to the Central Plains?  The matter of Ye Chang returning to the Central Plains has been rumored for a long time, and the reason is due to his previous military exploits.  Recovering Jian'an Prefecture and killing and capturing over 10,000 Khitan and other rebel tribesmen. Such a great victory was definitely worthy of surrendering prisoners to the palace of Chang'an.  But what is surprising is that the response to this incident in Chang'an City was loud and clear, although everyone thought that Li Linfu, who had always supported Ye Chang, would take the opportunity to show his merits to Ye Chang and let him take over as the general manager of the Liaodong March.  The position of general manager, at least deputy general manager, but in fact, until now, there is no news.  Some people say that Ye Chang¡¯s merits were so high this time that it was difficult to reward him, and there was still some controversy in the court.  On the contrary, An Lushan took advantage of Ye Chang's opportunity to defeat the main force of the Khitans and "recovered" Anshi Prefecture. The rewards from the imperial court had long been awarded, and his official position was promoted from Yushi Zhongcheng to Yushi Dafu.  .  After the banquet, Liu Yan was about to leave, but he saw Li Ye coming in a hurry again, saying goodbye to everyone, and winking at him at the same time.  Liu Yan understood and deliberately stayed until the end. After everyone left, he saw Li Ye and smiled sweetly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu. Yes Sima has returned to Luoyang and wants to invite Mr. Liu to meet him." "You should meet." Liu Yan had something in his heart.  Prepared, he responded with a smile.  But deep down in his heart, he had some doubts. Ye Chang and Yang Shenming had a very good relationship. Both of them belonged to the Li Linfu camp in the court. They cooperated very happily on the resettlement of the victims. Until now, Yang Shenming  He was still full of praise for Ye Chang.  Since Ye Chang arrived in Luoyang and Yang Shenming was present, why did he come to see him instead of seeing Yang Shenming?  " Following Li Ye, he turned around a small courtyard and entered a house. From the outside, the house looked simple and unpretentious, but after entering, Liu Yan felt that the decorations and furnishings inside had a comfortable feeling.  Then he saw Ye Chang bowing to him with a smile: "I came in secret, so I can't welcome you outside. Please forgive me, Mr. Liu." Liu Yan hurriedly returned the courtesy, shook his head and said: "Why did Ye Sima say this? Although you and I are  We met for the first time, but we had known each other for a long time. I admired Ye Sima very much for his economic talent, and I was even more impressed by Ye Sima's achievements in restoring the frontier. I only regretted that I was a useless scholar and could not imitate Ye Sima.  "Serving the country on the frontier" Liu Yan was a child prodigy who became an official at the age of seven. He didn't know that Ye Chang's good intentions towards him were just to recruit him.  But his reputation and qualifications are destined to have a bright future ahead of him. He is not like a has-been like Wang Changling who is over fifty years old and has accomplished nothing, nor is he like a young scholar like Cen Shen who lacks fame and support.  Therefore, this sentence is not only a tribute to Ye Chang, but also a clear position.  Ye Chang said with a smile: "Mr. Liu has a bright future, and he has served the country both in the frontier and in the eastern capital I invited Mr. Liu here because I know that Mr. Liu has a good eye and can recommend people. I wonder if Mr. Liu is suitable."  Can you recommend someone to me? " As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, Ye Chang firmly believes that there must be some people around Liu Yan who are as good at managing money as him.  Liu Yan couldn't dig it out, but it would be nice to be able to dig out these characters.  Hearing him ask this, Liu Yan's heart moved, and his expression became a little strange.  "The land of the two states in Liaodong is full of waste and is in urgent need of talents. If Liu Gong has such a gift in his bag, don't be stingy." Ye Chang looked at his face and said with his hand.  After a slight hesitation, Liu Yan looked at Ye Chang: "There is a person who is very suitable, but he has some troubles." "Oh, I don't know who he is, what's the trouble?" Ye Chang smiled when he heard this.  He is not afraid of trouble, he is just afraid of being alone.  Jili Prefecture and Jian'an Prefecture, to a certain extent, were his independent kingdoms. The imperial decrees here were not as effective as his words.  If there is any trouble and someone is taken to Liaodong, who can extend a hand? ???????? Didn¡¯t even Concubine Mei, with her troublesome status, live a good life in Lushun?  "This person has the fifth surname, named Qi, courtesy name Yuqi, and is from Jingzhao." Liu Yan smiled, stared at Ye Chang and said: "He once worked for the prefect of Shaanxi County, and was later demoted and returned home, but recently I heard that he is in a bad situation.  "If Ye Sima wants to use this person, it's the right time." "The situation is not good?" Ye Chang asked, "What's wrong?" "It has something to do with Ye Sima," Liu Yan said calmly.  He was originally Wei Jian's official when he was the governor of Shaanxi Province, but he was implicated in Wei Jian's affairs and was dismissed from office. Now there are rumors that someone in Chang'an is complaining about Wei Jian and others. Although he has not yet been imprisoned in Dali Temple, he is somewhat implicated.  It's dangerous." No wonder he looked strange just now, this person turned out to be from Wei Jian's party.  Ye Chang may be one of the most hated people in Wei Jian's party. Liu Yan recommended Wu Qi to Ye Chang. Firstly, he wanted to use Ye Chang's power to help Wu Qi.Get rid of the current situation; secondly, I also want to test and see what Ye Chang's caliber is.  When Ye Chang heard about the case involving Wei Jian, he knew something was wrong. This was a case that Li Linfu was closely following. If he reached out in the middle, would it arouse Li Linfu's suspicion?  However, although he hesitated in his heart, Ye Chang smiled on his face.  "I don't ask what's wrong with him, I just ask if he deserves Liu Gong's recommendation." Ye Chang stared at Liu Yan.  "Of course he deserves it. His ability to manage finances and economics is not inferior to Liu's" "That's the case, please write a letter to Mr. Liu to gain his trust." Ye Chang said again.  Liu Yan burst into laughter and nodded Ye Chang with his finger: "Ye Sima is young, he is obviously an old vixen." This was half praise and half ridicule. He asked Ye Chang a problem, and Ye Chang also solved it for him.  A difficult problem.  This letter is not easy to write. If Wu Qizhen is convicted because of Wei Jian's involvement, then this letter can also implicate Liu Yan.  Ye Chang just smiled. Li Ye looked at his face and gave him pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Liu Yan finished it. After finishing, he handed over to Ye Chang and said, "That's what Ye Sima wanted." "Please rest assured, Mr. Liu, at least."  I will find a way to save the life of this fifth gentleman," Ye Chang also said.  "I see that Ye Sima is so secretive. There must be a lot of trouble when he returns to the pass this time, right?" Liu Yan was slightly moved when he heard what Ye Chang said. Ye Chang really valued his opinions, so he slightly  After hesitating for a moment, he said, "If you don't think Liu is a fool, if you need my help in any way, please let me know." Ye Chang smiled bitterly. A smart person's vision is accurate. Just relying on his secret whereabouts,  Then he realized the embarrassment of his trip.  Unlike the last time when he got the imperial edict and returned to Chang'an, this time, he could be said to have left Liaodong privately and returned to the Central Plains.  The reason for this is that there was a big problem with the secret agreement with Li Linfu.  Originally, Li Linfu promised to replenish his population from the Central Plains, but six years after entering Tianbao, the matter was stopped.  Not only now, Dengzhou Sima Yuan Highway has also received news that his position is quite unstable. It seems that someone thinks this position is a good job and is preparing to replace him.  Yuan Gongdao and Ye Chang can be regarded as allies of interest, and the Dengzhou he governs is the choke point for communication between Liaodong and the Tang Dynasty. In this position, Ye Chang certainly hopes to arrange someone close to him.  If Yuan Highway really needs to be transferred, its successor should also be sought.  "It's just a little trouble, please ask Mr. Liu to take care of it." The root causes of these two problems are in the court, and may even be in Li Linfu, but they are not something Liu Yan can solve.  Moreover, there were some things that Liu Yan should not know. Therefore, Ye Chang thanked Liu Yan, but did not say anything directly. Instead, he went to other things: "In his reply, Mr. Liu once mentioned the use of salt tax to support national needs, but a certain person said otherwise.  I have an idea and would like to discuss it with Mr. Liu." Seeing that he did not want to speak out, Liu Yan naturally did not force it. After the two discussed and argued, Ye Chang added: "Economic skills are often despised by scholar-bureaucrats for their financial management.  , but I think that the so-called economy means managing the world and making it practical. Those who are in government do not understand the art of economics, that is, they do not understand the science of managing the world and making it practical. Although there are many people in the world who are called famous officials, they are just mediocre.  There are only a few people who are knowledgeable about economics. I have discussed with Liu Gong, and I want to compile it into a book and print it widely. I wonder what Liu Gong wants?"
