Chapter 52: Wonderful Flower Blossoming
Ma Yishan, nicknamed Ma Dadao, was originally Tianyunsi Special Wei. He was as famous as his name, and was good at using Dadao and loyalty and righteousness.
In the 18th year of Kaiyuan, the leader of the Khitan nobles, Ketugan led the crowd to surrender to the Turks and invaded Pinglu Town of our Tang Dynasty. Ma Yishan was ordered by Tianyun Department to escort Princess Donghua, who was pro-Khitan, back to his country. On the way back, he was surrounded and killed by the most elite Khitan warrior group "Qingbai Yisai". Ma Yishan was seriously injured and was cut off his arm, so he tried to protect the princess without any obstacles.
After returning to Beijing, Ma Yishan was not praised by Tianyun Department, but was reprimanded for being frightened by Princess Donghua. She was disheartened and Ma Yishan withdrew from Tianyun Department.
The world is so miserable. Two years ago, Mayishan was hired by a timber merchant in Lingnan to become the warehouse manager of Xintan Wood Factory. Well, it’s just the gate.
Ma Yishan, the second person on the six-person list.
When he heard Gao Mang report his home, the vigilance in Ma Yishan's eyes disappeared. He looked Gao Mang up and down in surprise, and smiled and said, "The little immortal master is famous in the capital when he first arrived. He has seen the little immortal master!" After that, he held his fists and saluted.
Gao Mang replied, looked up at Ma Yishan: "I need manpower, come here, there is enough wine and meat!"
Through the fence gate, Gao Mang could already smell the strong smell of alcohol on Ma Dadao.
Ma Dadao laughed loudly and said cheerfully: "Thank you for the little immortal master, you dare not to obey your orders. You just have to wait three days before you say goodbye to the master's family before you go to find the little immortal master."
Gao Mang nodded happily, looked at the puppy at the foot of Ma Dadao, and asked with a smile: "Which noble man is this Kang Guozi from?"
Ma Yishan's hideous face showed a complex look and nodded silently.
Gao Mang smiled absurdly. Is there anything more ironic than just one arm for a pet dog?
"Has the sage named?"
"Never."
Gao Mang said lightly: "From today, it will be called Xihua, and it is the guardian dog of my little immortal master's mansion!"
Hahaha, Ma Yishan laughed loudly, tears came out of laughter, and bowed deeply to Gao Mang.
Gao Mang didn't know the specific location of his new house in Jishanfang, so he left An Guoguan's address and said goodbye.
Back at Xintan Wharf, Gao Mang asked Xiao Yingshi: "Maoting, are you familiar with Lichunyuan in Qinghuafang?"
Xiao Yingshi nodded and looked up at the Heavenly Dao: "It's not far from Xintan, but we're going a little early now, right?"
Seeing Gao Mang looking at him with a strange expression, Xiao Yingshi's face turned slightly red and said embarrassedly: "Students have been there a few times, just listening to music, just listening to music."
Xiao Yingshi really forgot that the little immortal master was only six years old, and when asked about that kind of place, it was definitely not for the sake of the romantic.
OK, don’t explain, explanation is just to cover up, Gao Mang ummed twice.
If it weren't for the rescue of the miserable aunt, who would have been willing to go to the kiln in broad daylight?
The carriages and horses were noisy, and the group left Xintan Wharf and drove towards Qinghuafang to the north.

In the Palace of Changsheng, Emperor Li Longji sat at the desk, holding a few impeachment notes in his hand, and was really feeling a little frustrated.
He had just finished discussing state affairs with the ministers not very happy, and he came back to play chess to relieve boredom, but before his butt was still hot, the memorial to impeach the little immortal master came over.
"Lishi, look, this kid is too brave. He actually smashed the Guangxing Pavilion of King Guang and the Prince, and was still under my name." Li Longji threw a few pieces at Gao Lishi, then walked to the Go table and sat down.
After taking the note, Gao Lishi took the note and shook his head with a wry smile.
He is more than just a big deal, he is simply bold, but why isn't I surprised at all?
Li Long flipped through the glass chess piece in his hand and said angrily: "What is he trying to do? Concubine Wu Hui doesn't take it seriously, and the prince doesn't take it seriously. He thinks that Sima Chengzhen can do whatever he wants?"
"Sanlang," Gao Lishi couldn't help but say, "The little immortal master is not relying on Sima Chengzhen for such a reckless act."
"Oh?" Li Longji looked at Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi bowed and said, "Our little immortal master is reckless, but in fact he is very smart. He knows who is the most powerful person in the Tang Dynasty, so he is arrogant and domineering in front of others, but he acts in a manner and flatters in front of you. Saint, he relies on no one else, but your dragon power."
Li Longji smiled on his face. Of course he knew this, but he didn't feel as useful as others.
Isn’t it just smashed a Guangxing Pavilion, a place with dirty and dirty things, and it’s smashed well.
Li Longji has long been dissatisfied with the prince's secretly joining gangs to bribe ministers. I am still in the prime of spring and autumn. What do you want to do?
Compared to those powerful ministers who have been cursing the prince all day long, Gao Mang should not be too cute.
"By the way, where did he go at this time?" Li Longji asked curiously.
Gao Lishi was prepared and called a small eunuch and asked the eunuch to tell Gao Mang about his itinerary.
"Xihua?" Li Longji smiled playfully when he heard the puppy's name, and signaled the eunuch to continue speaking.
The eunuch said obediently: "After the saint, the little immortal master left Xintan Wharf, he went to Lichunyuan in Qinghuafang."
"Lichunyuan?"
Gao Lishi hurriedly explained: "Sage, Qinghuafang is next to Xintan Wharf, not far from Taipei City, so there are many fireworks and willow alleys, and Lichunyuan is the larger one."
Li Longji couldn't help but realize that the Tang people went to places where the flowers and flowers were romantic was an entertainment method and it was not illegal. It was a kind move for literati officials.
In fact, there are more prostitutes in the palace of the Tang Dynasty and official prostitutes, and the Jiaofangsi belongs to the same kind of place. As for the fireworks opened by the people, there are more places.
Li Longji was just surprised that Gao Mang went there and was definitely not drinking wine, nor was he going there in broad daylight. Could it be that those who woke up in the sky became prostitutes?
Suddenly he thought of something, he got up and took out a booklet from the desk, and read Zheng Sanniang's information in a moment.
It would be fine if I didn't look at it, but when I saw it, Li Longji's brows frowned.
Zheng Sanniang, the former Tianyun Department's female official, was good at charming skills and trained hundreds of brothel women as peripheral spies.
In the 15th year of Kaiyuan, Tubo general Xinuolu Gonglu led his army to capture Guazhou and immediately attacked the Yumen army. In order to hinder the Tubo army, Zheng Sanniang led more than 30 brothel women to sneak into the Tubo camp in the name of labor troops, waiting for an opportunity to burn the enemy's food and grass.
After the incident, in order to avoid being ravaged by the Tubo people, these more than 30 women either died in water or committed suicide by taking poison. Only Zheng Sanniang escaped from the enemy camp.
Unfortunately, these strange women in the Tang Dynasty were just peripheral personnel, and the Tianyun Department did not even record their names, so naturally there was no question of paying pensions.
In a rage, Zheng Sanniang withdrew from the Tianyun Department and sold her property to borrow money everywhere. She has been secretly taking care of the families of more than 30 dead people over the years.
It was a helpless move for her to commit herself to the fireworks. Only in this way could she escape the Shadow Department's enlistment. Obviously, in her heart, Shadow Department and Tianyun Department were both good people.
Li Longji frowned and looked at Zheng Sanniang's information, unable to speak for a long time.
