Ang Lee would never allow himself to be too idle, because if he was too idle, he would feel very uncomfortable. There was a famous saying, "Idle until your balls hurt". It meant that if a person was too idle, he would feel very uncomfortable. A person who was too idle was very likely to cause trouble. It was commonly known as a person who had nothing better to do.
Just as the Lishan Breeding Base was on the right track, Ang Lee began to design new things. As long as he was still breathing, Ang Lee would continue to launch new products and cover the Tang dynasty with a variety of products, making the Tang Empire a hundred times, a thousand times stronger.
Of course, Ang Lee's hard work was relative. In fact, it was not as hard as others thought. Everything was carried out under the premise of combining work and rest.
In the early winter, there were few leaves on the treetops in the courtyard. Most of the leaves had fallen, and it looked a little desolate.
Desolation was not good for people's health. Because of this, there were so many evergreen trees in the cities of later generations. It was to prevent people from feeling the desolation of autumn and winter, which was good for people's health.
Li An naturally understood this principle, so the mansion also planted many evergreen trees. However, some precious trees couldn't be evergreen all year round. It was inevitable that they would lose their leaves. For example, many fruit trees. When winter came, their leaves would gradually fall off, making them look bare.
In order to make the courtyard look more beautiful, Ang Lee had already made preparations. He asked the mansion's servants to prepare a lot of fake flowers and leaves, and these fake flowers and leaves were fixed on the bare tree trunks. In this way, the tree trunks would look relatively beautiful and lively, which would make people feel comfortable.
Since the leaves were almost gone, the servants also began to get busy. They handled the tree trunks one by one in the courtyard. The male servants were busy moving the ladder, and the female servants were busy taking the fake flowers and leaves. Everyone divided the work, so they did not feel tired at all.
Ang Lee was thinking about the Lishan Breeding Base's underground parking lot, so he was not in the mood to join in the work. Moreover, Ang Lee was the head of the family, so there was no need for him to work with the servants.
"Father, I'll give you a peony."
Tang Er naughtily handed a fake peony flower to Ang Lee.
Ang Lee gently stroked Tang Er's head and said, "Tang Er, go play somewhere else."
Seeing that he could not attract his father's attention, Tang Er felt bored and ran away.
"Alang, Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon sent someone to send an invitation to Alang to the Four Seas Restaurant in Peace Square."
The butler trotted over to report.
"Four Seas Restaurant? Fine! Get the car ready immediately. "
Ang Lee said.
The Four Seas Restaurant was a very famous restaurant in Peace Square. The quality of the food inside was very guaranteed. It was a good place for the nobles to treat their guests. Of course, there was not only food and drink, but also girls who played the piano and danced. There was even a private room on the top floor. If the guests took a fancy to a girl, they could directly bring her up. It was a one-stop service for food, drink, and accommodation.
Of course, most people would not be so vulgar. After eating and drinking, they went back.
As for why Li Yu wanted to invite him to the Four Seas Restaurant for a big meal, Ang Lee had a basic idea. It was nothing more than asking about the underground parking lot. After troubling Ang Lee for so long, Ang Lee should treat Ang Lee to a meal.
After getting on the car, Ang Lee went straight to Peace Square in Chang 'an City. The road was a concrete road that was newly paved a few years ago. It was flat and straight, and the car drove very steadily on it. There were many cars on the road, but it did not reach the standard of a traffic jam. At least, there were basically no traffic jams outside the city. All the traffic jams were concentrated in narrow places such as the city gates and in some of the most prosperous places in the city.
After entering the city gates, the road was still wide, and there was a constant flow of pedestrians and cars. In order to prevent vehicles and horses from hurting people, the main road was divided into many parts. Motor vehicles were in the middle, horses and bicycles were in the middle, and the outermost part was for people walking and sitting in palanquins. Although the palanquins were relatively large, they were, after all, carried by people. The speed was almost the same as the walking pedestrians, so it was most suitable to place them at the outermost part.
Of course, with the popularity of cars, there were fewer and fewer nobles who used palanquins. It was not only because the palanquins were too slow, but more importantly, they had to go to the outermost part and walk with the poor people on foot. This was too embarrassing. As a noble, who would be willing to walk with the poor?
According to Ang Lee's estimation, the palanquins would not last for many years in Chang 'an City. Many craftsmen who made palanquins began to change their careers, and the merchants who sold palanquins were also planning to change their careers. After all, the decline of this industry was inevitable. If they did not prepare in advance, they would definitely die miserably.
"Alang, we've arrived at Peace Square. There's still one mile to go to the Four Seas Restaurant. The road ahead is getting more and more congested. It's not easy to go!"
The manservant who was driving said.
"Just stop at the intersection of the cross street ahead! I'll walk there. "
Ang Lee did not want to make things difficult for the manservant. There was too much traffic ahead. If he continued to drive, it would be terrible if the car was stuck inside. It would be better to walk there. Anyway, the security in Chang 'an City was not bad, and there were guards to protect him. There should not be any danger.
Two guards got out of the car with Ang Lee. The manservant who was driving immediately parked the car in a small open space and then rested in the car until Ang Lee came again.
The more he walked forward, the more Ang Lee could feel the prosperity of Peace Square. There were pedestrians everywhere on the road, which made it even more difficult for the cars to pass. Most of the time, the cars were simply moving, little by little.
One mile was only four to five hundred meters away. According to normal walking speed, one could reach it quickly. However, because the road here was too congested, Ang Lee walked for a long time before reaching the Four Seas Restaurant. If he insisted on driving, it might take even longer.
"Assistant Minister Li, my family, Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon, has been waiting for a long time."
As soon as he reached the door, Ang Lee saw the Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon's servant coming to greet him.
Ang Lee motioned for the guards to stay. Then, he followed the Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon's servant to the third floor.
In a private room by the window, the Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon's servant stopped in his tracks.
"Assistant Minister Li, please."
After the Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon's servant finished speaking, he went downstairs to serve the wine and dishes.
Ang Lee walked straight in and saw Li Yu standing by the window. At this moment, Li Yu was looking at the bustling street outside the window, looking relaxed and quiet.
"Peace Square is getting more and more lively."
Ang Lee also walked to the window and looked at the bustling scene outside. He was filled with emotion.
"Assistant Minister Li, look. The cars below are all blocked on the road. If these parked cars are moved away, the road will be much smoother."
Li Yu said seriously.
It could be seen that Li Yu had been thinking about the underground parking lot almost all the time recently, to the point that he was almost obsessed with it.
At the same time, Ang Lee also understood why Li Yu invited him to the Four Seas Restaurant in Peace Square for a meal. He wanted to see the traffic jam with his own eyes and then think of a solution on the spot.
"Haha! It seems that Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon has been racking his brains to think about the underground parking lot recently! This is really a blessing for the Tang dynasty! If there's anything you don't understand or need help with, just let me know. I'll do my best to help Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon. "
Li An said in a good mood.
Li Yu's expression was very grateful. He said, "I knew that Assistant Minister Li is a reliable person. Let's eat first and chat while eating!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter of the restaurant served the dishes.
Ang Lee and Li Yu were eating happily upstairs. However, on the street outside the Four Seas Restaurant, there was a dispute.
A black car that was traveling from south to north collided with a white car that was traveling from north to south. Although the speed of the two cars was not very fast, the impact of the collision was still very high. It made a crisp and ear-piercing sound. Even Li An and Li Yu, who were on the third floor, could hear this sound clearly.
"It seems that something has happened. Let's take a look."
Ang Lee left the table and walked to the window. Li Yu followed him.
When they walked to the window, they saw a well-dressed male servant get out of the black car. He pointed at the white car and cursed. All the vulgarities that came out of his mouth were unbearable to the ears. The arrogance of this male servant also shocked the surrounding passersby. Many people who could not bear to continue watching could only watch silently.
Ang Lee saw very clearly that the manservant was dressed as a servant of the Yang family. Only the powerful Yang family would choose to dress their servants in such gorgeous clothes.
Perhaps because the manservant couldn't stand the abuse, the door of the white car opened gently. A well-dressed man walked out and pointed at the arrogant manservant. He wanted to retaliate with words. Unexpectedly, before he could say anything, the arrogant manservant kicked him, causing the man to retreat. At this time, the woman in the car was about to come out. After being hit, both of them fell in the car. Suddenly, a cry of pain came from the car. It sounded quite miserable. It must be very painful.
"A servant of the Yang family is actually so arrogant. This is too much."
Ang Lee shook his head and sighed.
Li Yu didn't say anything. He only frowned and looked at the white car. He carefully listened to the sounds coming from the car. Then, he looked at Ang Lee in surprise and said, "Assistant Minister Li, the one who was hit should be this prince's aunt, Princess Guangning. I just thought that the man looked familiar. Isn't he the prince consort, Cheng Chang-yi?"
In fact, Li Yu and the prince consort, Cheng Chang-yi, didn't meet many times. Therefore, he wasn't very familiar with him. When he saw him just now, he only thought that he looked familiar but couldn't remember who he was at that moment.
As for Ang Lee, he couldn't even recognize him. There were so many members of the royal family. How could Ang Lee recognize all of them? In fact, Ang Lee didn't even have much of an impression of the name Cheng Chang-yi. However, he did have some impression of Princess Guangning. After all, this woman was more beautiful, and Ang Lee always paid more attention to beautiful women.
"Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon's aunt is also my aunt. Let's go downstairs and take a look."
Ang Lee said as he went downstairs with Li Yu. How could Ang Lee ignore such a big matter?
After going downstairs, Ang Lee saw that the outside was already crowded with people. The road was completely blocked.
"Make way, make way."
Ang Lee tried to get the crowd to make way. However, it seemed to be difficult because everyone wanted to squeeze forward to watch the show. The speed at which they moved aside was very slow.
"Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon is here. Everyone, make way."
The manservant behind him shouted proudly. The crowd in front immediately made way and bowed respectfully to Li Yu. Some passers-by who recognized Ang Lee whispered to the people around them that the person in front of them was the famous Ang Lee.
"Aunt, how are you?"
Li Yu saw Princess Guangning through the car door, and Ang Lee quickly pulled up Cheng Chang-yi, who was lying on Princess Guangning's body and could barely move.
However, the embarrassing thing was that Princess Guangning was wearing a skirt. When Cheng Chang-yi was pulled up by Ang Lee, Princess Guangning's breasts were exposed in front of Ang Lee's eyes. Although it was an unintentional mistake, it was still embarrassing enough.
Li Yu was standing next to Ang Lee and naturally saw this scene. However, Princess Guangning, who was tortured by the pain, did not seem to realize that she was exposed. She was still groaning with a painful expression. She even involuntarily raised her leg from time to time, making the exposure more serious.
"Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon, why aren't you helping Aunt up?"
Ang Lee used his body to block the view and looked at Li Yu and said.
Li Yu was stunned for a moment. He quickly braced himself and walked into the car to help the frightened Princess Guangning up. After all, Ang Lee was already supporting Cheng Chang-yi. If he did not help, who would?
"Aiya, this kid is finished. He actually hit the Princess."
"Who would have thought that the Princess would be in the car? This is troublesome. "
"The servants of the Yang family have always been arrogant and despotic. This is enough for them."
The onlookers started to discuss.
"Move aside, what happened here?"
At this moment, the yamen runner in charge of the street security finally arrived.
"Gwangbyeong Of Gojoseon, Assistant Minister Li, the Princess …"
The yamen runner was shocked. He did not know how to deal with so many important people at a glance.
"This kid hit the Princess's husband. Do as you see fit!"
Ang Lee said lightly.
When the yamen runner heard this, he knew it was an order. He immediately changed his expression and said, "Men, arrest this audacious guy and put him in jail. Then, arrest the frightened servant."
There was no one in the black car except for the servant who was driving. Since the servant was arrested, the car must be taken away as well.
The remaining yamen runners began to drive away the onlookers and let everyone leave quickly to restore the local traffic order.
Princess Guangning, who gradually calmed down, began to realize that she had just lost her composure. She was angry and embarrassed and vented her anger on her husband, Cheng Chang-yi. She said that her husband was useless. He was kicked to such a state and even caused her to be injured.
