"Right away."
Li You's patience was extremely limited. Seeing that Eunuch Han wanted to say something, he immediately shouted it out. Eunuch Han also understood Li You's temper and knew that he was not the kind of person who would listen to advice. If he didn't act now, he might get beaten up later.
Although Handesi was a servant, he had stayed with Empress Yin Fei for a long time and watched Li You grow up. If this guy had a little brains, he would not be so rude to Handesi. However, Li You had always been mischievous. Even such a useful person was only slightly better than other servants in his eyes.
Is it really necessary to inquire about these matters? Eunuch Han had already figured out everything before. On the surface, there seemed to be no danger, but who could be sure once they were on someone else's territory? Niu Jinda's two thousand troops were quite capable, but the question was, could they guarantee everyone's safety? What if the enemy's target was Li You? Even with Niu Jinda's formidable fighting ability, it was hard to say what would happen in the end.
Concubine Yin only has this one son, and Eunuch Han also heard the final order when he came. Although other orders are also important, if they conflict with the last one, then the last one must be followed.
What was this order? It was to save Li You's life.
Although other things are important, compared with this life, this life is the foundation. If even this life is gone, what use are all the other honors? Now the imperial concubine is honored by her son. Regardless of whether she is favored by Li Shimin or not, as long as she has a son, her status in the palace will be different.
Eunuch Han has lived in the palace for many years. Compared with the women in the cold palace, he certainly knows how important a son is. As long as those people have a son, for the sake of their son's face, no matter how big a mistake they make, the emperor will never let any of them live in the cold palace.
Eunuch Han took a walk outside and then returned to Li You, but when he saw Li Xiang, he knew something was wrong.
According to his previous idea, he would just take a walk outside and then make up some scary words. He knew Li You very well. Although wine, sex, money and power were very attractive, the most important thing was to save his life first. So if he used these words to scare him, Li You would definitely not dare to go out. But now that Li Xiang was here, some things were hard to say.
"Are you serious?"
Eunuch Han had just walked in. He didn't know what the uncle and nephew had just talked about, but he only saw that Li You's veins were popping out of nervousness. It was conceivable that the stakes offered by Li Xiang were not low.
"Uncle Wu, don't you still trust me? I may not be great in other aspects, but you can ask around in Chang'an City. As long as I say something, I will definitely fulfill it. If I don't even have this little bit of credibility, will these people outside be willing to follow me and fight to the death?"
Li Xiang said this in a somewhat feigned anger, and Li You beside him also nodded with a smile. In his eyes, although Li Xiang was not a good person, and his elder brother was no good either, but these two father and son had one advantage, that is, they kept their words. It was precisely because of this that more and more talented people followed them.
"Your Highness..."
Eunuch Han still didn't understand what was going on, but looking at the expression on Li Xiang's face, the old man knew that Li You had probably been fooled.
"It's just right that you're back. Go pack up. I'm going to inspect the Western Region tomorrow. Tell everyone below to get ready."
After hearing what Li You said, this guy almost burst into tears. How could he change his mind in less than an hour? Could it be that Li Xiang had magical powers? Eunuch Han wanted to know what Li Xiang had just said.
In front of outsiders, no matter how dissatisfied Eunuch Han is, he has to listen obediently. If you embarrass Li You in front of outsiders, then Li You will have a hundred ways to torture you. No matter whether you are someone close to the Empress or not, as long as you don't give him face, he will not give you your life.
Li Xiang also took his leave with a smile. When he was leaving, Eunuch Han finally got a chance and called a young eunuch over to see what both parties had just said.
After hearing what the young eunuch said, Eunuch Han was finally convinced that Li Xiang could actually make such a big investment.
Yuxiang Tower...
Yuxiang Tower in Chang'an City...
It was the top brothel in the whole Chang'an, and had been taken over by Zhi Daobao earlier. Just to allow Li You to visit the Western Regions, Li Xiang actually gave Yuxianglou to Li You.
Everyone knows that there are five golden flowers in Yuxiang Tower, who are the most beautiful women in the entire Chang'an City. Normally, even if you want to find one of them to accompany you for drinking, it would cost hundreds of taels of silver. But now, they have given it to Li You.
Eunuch Han remembered very clearly that Li You had taken a fancy to one of the Five Golden Flowers and had offered her ten thousand strings of cash, but the other party was unwilling. If it were any other brothel, Li You would have simply hired someone to rob her, but the problem was that this was Zhidaobao's territory, and if he really provoked Li Xiang, Li You would not be able to bear the consequences, so he endured it.
Unexpectedly, Li Xiang got the news from somewhere. Although Li Xiang had various methods, none of them were as effective as this one. Li Xiang directly wrote down the transfer document and signed it. As long as Li You put his fingerprint on it, when he returned to Chang'an City, all the girls in the building would be his, and he would also get 100,000 strings of cash.
To die under the peony flowers is to be a romantic ghost. Everyone understands this sentence, and Li You is the one who knows it best. Eunuch Han may not be very clear about this, but seeing Li You's satisfied look, Eunuch Han also knows that now the matter has been decided and there is no point in saying anything.
"Is this old eunuch Han courting death?"
Half an hour later, Li You cursed in his room, but he could do nothing about it. After all, Eunuch Han did this for his own good.
It turned out that Eunuch Han took out 10,000 strings of cash from Li You's private money and gave all of it as a reward to those who accompanied Li You on this trip to the Western Regions. Each person received five strings of cash, and Eunuch Han also gave instructions on behalf of Li You that anyone who could ensure the prince's safe return would be rewarded with another five strings of cash.
This is all the wealth that Li You brought...
