A few days later, Jing and the Qian family set a wedding date, which was August 24.

The Tian family knew the movements of the Li family best, and the Jing family did not deliberately conceal it, and the Tian family soon knew about the marriage between the Li family and the Zhongchang family.

Li Ji lit the note and put it in the brazier, and the tongue of fire swallowed the note at once. Mayday, midsummer has seen the signs, he is coming back, Li Ji is very calm in her heart.

Li Ji called Sanyu over, and Sanyu, as Liji's most relied on servant, probably knew what Li Ji called her for, the Li family.

As Sanyu expected, Li Ji said as soon as he spoke, "His eldest son is getting married, his in-laws are Qian Ziyan, the servant of Zhongchang, and the engagement is the second daughter of his family." ”

Sanyu said, "Zhong Chang is barely a close minister of the Son of Heaven, but no matter how close you are, you can't get close!" Sanyu comforted, she knew that Li Ji didn't mean that. Niangniang just wanted to talk to her about that person, Sanyu was Li Ji's personal servant, and she followed Li Ji when she was a little girl. Later, when Tiandan wanted to liquidate the people around Li Ji, Li Ji kept Sanyu down. Sanyu and Li Ji have common memories, memories of Li Kang.

Li Ji doesn't care, what is the use of marrying the daughter of a close minister of the Son of Heaven, it's just that she is well-informed and can speak at a critical time. Li Bu had not been entangled with a woman when she was now, and that wife must have been chosen by Jing. In the eyes of outsiders, General Annan is a regular servant in Shangzhong, and this marriage should be a good match.

But in Li Ji's opinion, the Zhongchang family is still not worthy of the Li family. Qian Ziyan, a regular servant in the middle school, is from Jiangdu, and he was lucky to be able to come to Beijing to be an official, all because of Qian Ziyan's ability. Li Dang is the son of the founding general Cheng Jihou, the elder brother is among the three dukes, and Li is the queen's nephew. It was the Qian family who climbed high.

Li Ji wanted to ask Sanyu what the character of the Qian family's daughter was, but what does this have to do with her. Stop.

Sanyu saw that the master wanted to speak and stopped, and knew that the master's old mistake had been committed again. Instead of ignoring and worrying, it is better to solve it now. Let's talk about the common thing first, "Niangniang, I have also heard of the second girl of the Qian family, she is known to be virtuous, she has followed her mother to take care of family affairs since she was a child, and she is a good housekeeper." She has a gentle temperament and is a rare beauty. ”

Unlike just now, Li Ji, who was still a little lonely, now had a sparkle in her eyes, and said, "Really?"

Sanyu smiled, "Yes, at the beginning, Niangniang wanted to marry her to the King of Changyi, but her status was not high, and she couldn't be a concubine, so she gave up." ”

Li Ji remembered that she was a girl with a pair of eyes that could talk, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, which was impressive. Jing's will be picky, that girl is good. Thinking of Li Bu again, the most profound thing is his eyes, which are very similar to Li Kang.

I really couldn't think about it anymore, Li Ji changed the subject, "What has Tian Rui been doing lately?"

"Back to Niangniang's words, Miss Tian Jiaqi has recently been learning from Mrs. in the Guannei Hou Mansion with peace of mind, and has participated in several banquets during this period. She handed over a post to this morning, hello, you see?" Sanyu looked at Li Ji's expression, not disgusted.

Li Ji nodded and said, "That's right." "Look at what Tian Rui has been doing recently, there has been no movement in the Guannei Hou Mansion recently," you say, when will the Guannei Hou come back?" At the beginning of the year, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was the prince of Dafeng, and Tian Dan was still in the city, witnessing the ceremony of the two nephews being crowned kings. When you're done, head back to the north.

Sanyu thought that her mother missed her relatives, so she said, "The slave maid estimates that the general will come back before the hunting ceremony, and the eldest prince will also come back before that." ”

Li Ji asked again, "The eldest son, by the way, did I send someone to send a special mink coat to the eldest prince?"

"Yesterday the news came, saying that it was delivered", Sanyu replied.

Li Ji said to herself, "Tian Yi, this child, is not her own, and only my aunt cares more." ”

When Sanyu heard this, he didn't dare to talk. The eldest son, Tian Yi, is the only son of Hou Tiandan in Guannai, and he is not from the current wife, but is recorded in the name of the current wife. The general didn't say anything, and no one knew who the child's mother was. However, wherever the general went, he took this only son with him and his love.

Seeing that Sanyu was silent, Li Ji said curiously, "Sanyu, do you think Tian Yi's mother will be gone? If she is, my brother should take her into the mansion, even if her status is not high, she is also a noble concubine." ”

Sanyu sighed, "If it's really as Niangniang said, then it's a pity!"

Li Ji smiled, "Forget it, if there is nothing, let's not speculate." I was worried that my brother wouldn't marry him, but then he got married. Later, he had been married for many years and had no children, and I have sent him many people, and even his wife has a grudge against me, and he has no children. I suspected that there was something unspeakable about his body, so I didn't give it away. In the end, he took Tian Yichong back outside, and I wondered if this child was born to my brother. Fortunately, Tian Yi looks like my brother, otherwise I wouldn't believe it. ”

Sanyu also smiled, "Yes, Niangniang is not worried. Now that the eldest prince is sixteen or seventeen, in a few years, you will be relieved to become a biological child. "Although, Li Ji has a complaint about Tian Dan, but the care she should have is still there, and blood is thicker than water.

Li Ji's mood finally improved, so much so that she was full of smiles when she met Tian Rui.

On a midsummer afternoon, Li Ying received a stack of letters from the concierge, mixed with a book, "Chang'an Miscellaneous". Li Ying's brows jumped, is it him? These days, Li Ying often goes out alone, but he has never been to that bookstore again. When I opened it, it was no longer the original one, the content was more detailed than that one, and it was also illustrated. Li Ying accepted it quietly, will there be a next one? What is the next one?

Sure enough, the next one is "Zhang Qian's Westward Journey". Needless to say, this is a famous diplomat of the Han Dynasty, who sent an envoy to the Western Regions and opened up the Silk Road from the Han Dynasty to the Western Regions. Now that sweaty BMWs, grapes, pomegranates, flax and other things have been introduced into the Central Plains, Li Ying is especially grateful to this big man. If it weren't for his feat, Li Ying wouldn't have been able to eat grapes and pomegranates.

Because of the interesting book, Li Ying didn't go out at home, and it was more than ten days in a row. Zhou Yishan couldn't see it, so he came to Li's house as a guest. When Li Ying learned that Zhou Yishan was coming, she was still a little surprised. She has been in the capital for several months, and is often summoned into the palace by the queen mother and Princess Liu Ying. didn't go to the palace, and was bombarded by the posts of Miss Zhou and her future sister-in-law, Miss Qian, and kept going to banquets and playing. In the circle of noble ladies in the capital, they are already familiar. It's just that the eldest lady of the Wang family is okay with her face, but she secretly doesn't want to see her. Li Ying didn't care.

The moment Zhou Yishan opened the curtain, the sunlight outside the house hit Li Ying's face, and Li Yingcai remembered that tomorrow would be the first day of August.
