That night, in order to celebrate the saint's official gift, the cousins made a special appointment to have a drink in the Puwang Mansion. This move was not just to respond to the words of the saint, but to enhance the relationship between them. Their positions are very similar, and it is no longer possible to be involved in any life-saving conflict of interests. That being the case, with the same blood passed down by the saints, and the same dragons and phoenixes, why shouldn't they get closer?

During the banquet, Li Jing, who was the youngest in line, poured wine for all the brothers, and shouted sourly: "Brother Boyue, Brother Qianli, Brother Jiqing, drink to win!" When he said these words, he did not hide his envy and jealousy, which immediately caused Li Xin and the three of them to laugh: "These words are good?" Are you wanting one more and more? Don't worry, don't worry, how about we ask grandfather for you again tomorrow? ”

Facing this group of brothers who have no filial piety, Li Jing snorted stupidly: "I have long passed the age of the crown before I got the words from my grandfather, what do you have to be proud of?" Grandfather must have forgotten all of you before, and only remembered to give you words on a temporary basis! If Cousin Hui and I were to hold a crown ceremony in the year of Double October, Grandpa Yang would have given us a loud word! ”

Li Hui, who was sympathetic to the same disease, pulled him to his side and comforted him: "Don't worry." Their characters were all casually thought up by their grandfather, you listen to them - 'Bo Yue', the eldest son and eldest grandson said 'Bo', 'Qianli', isn't it a Qianli horse, not to mention 'Ji Qing', it's just a 'Qing' with a crepe of letters. This was uttered by my grandfather according to their line of conduct and ambition. ”

After his analysis, Li Jing suddenly felt much better. Li Xin and the others decided that it was just jealousy: "Say that our words are taken casually, be careful that grandfather will give you a more casual word in the future!" Grandfather gave us a word, but you commented on it like this, didn't it make his old man sad? ”

The five of them made a fuss for a while, toasted each other, and then looked at each other and laughed. Although they have had completely different experiences since childhood, some have always lived in rich and noble villages, some have fallen and regained glory, and some have died depressed and then reborn. However, at this moment, they can understand each other and treat each other with sincerity.

How nice it would be if after the years went by, and they could be as comfortable every day as they are today? It's a pity that everyone knows very well in their hearts that the undercurrents surging in Chang'an City can stir up monstrous waves at any time, and these waves can completely engulf them at any time. The moment when they can live happily may be long or short.

It all depends on whether their grandfather can continue to dominate the throne; It all depends on whether their uncle is kind enough, rational enough, and concerned enough about brotherhood and friendship between uncle and nephew. However, in front of the stable throne, the so-called friendship is too light, like a feather, and it will fly away in an instant.

After sending off their cousins, Li Hui and Li Xin returned to the Xilu mansion and discussed their current shape after a long absence. Both of them know that the turmoil of the reverse case seems to have subsided, but in fact there are too many doubts. But they checked and checked, but they were never able to determine the source of the rumors at that time. It seems that overnight, the rumors that the family that failed to seize the heir and was exiled were the masterminds of the assassination have spread.

"In any case, it was Aunt An Xing who brought the rumors into the palace, and I always felt that she seemed to have some plan." Li Hui said, "Brother proposed to become a county magistrate, did he originally intend to be in Chang'an County or Wannian County?" Planning to investigate this matter together openly and secretly? "The elder brother must be very clear that the ordinary county order is certainly not in line with the identity of the king of Heipu. With his grandfather's temperament, he would probably give him the Jingxian order.

Li Xin bowed slightly: "It seems to be a very easy time recently, with a lot of flowers, but I always feel that something is about to move...... What do you think my uncle will feel after the three of us are ordained? ”

"I'm afraid my uncle will regret that his son is too young." Li Hui said with a half-smirk, and then replied with a straight face, "I just noticed that the Great Father had never entered the palace before today. When I saw him today, his expression seemed to be getting more and more sad. He's been recuperating in the other hospital, and he doesn't know what will happen in the other hospital......"

Li Xin thought for a while: "The eldest mother is busy preparing for Aji's marriage, and Aju is also full of thoughts about the wedding, and she has to find a husband for Qianniang - no, there is indeed something happening in the courtyard that we don't know." Perhaps, it is very likely that the great father will no longer be able to stay in Beijing. ”

The two brothers looked at each other tacitly - would the person who calculated Li Song be kind enough to let Li Tai go?

Li Hui nodded and said, "Brother don't worry, I will keep an eye on Grandpa, and I will never let him go around to participate in any cultural meetings." It's been a hot day lately, so it's better to stay home and cool off. "My grandfather is huge, and he is the least tolerant of heat. Going out at such times is like torture for him, and he doesn't want to run around. Just change the location of those invitation posts a little farther away, and he will be lazy to go out.

At the end of June, Li Xin, the king of Pu, Li Wei, the king of Yue, and Li Ju, the prince of Xunguo, held a grand coronation ceremony one after another, preparing for their debut. Later, Li Xin took office as the county magistrate of Wannian County, and governed the fifty-five squares and one city east of Zhuque Street, which was the place where dignitaries gathered; Li Wei was appointed as the lieutenant of Guoyi of the Right Jin Wuwei, with 480 soldiers under his command; Li Ju entered the secretary prison as he wished, and followed his father-in-law to sort out the books and classics.

At the beginning of August, Li Ju, the Duke of Xunguo, got married. Several of his cousins served as courtiers and accompanied him to his home. In addition, there is also a group of clan brothers, who follow majestically and proudly. When it comes to prosperity, the royal family is not far behind any family. Each of the higher-ranking princes and county kings has many children and flourishes. Because of this, the huge lineage of his own family and the genealogy of the rest of the Li family in Longxi, the king of Xin'an County has not memorized it until recently.

Originally, Li Ju wanted to invite Wang Zixian to come over and serve as a maid, but Li Hui politely refused for him. Although Li Qianniang has been very peaceful in the past few months, and now she may be married, but who knows if she will suddenly become stubborn after she sees Wang Zixian again? He has never forgotten Jì, when she confronted Guozi before school, she refused to give up her resentful eyes. Superfluous things can be avoided, and before she gets married, nothing can go wrong.

Located in the northwest corner of Shanning Fang, Anjia is just a small house with three entrances, but it looks very elegant. Nowadays, the elegance is full of joyful decorations, and it seems to be extraordinarily harmonious. Li Ju's poetry broke through many obstacles all the way, but was stopped by the killing rods of the An family's relatives. So, the cousins finally went into battle together, with the brothers Li Wei and Li Jing rushing ahead, and Li Xin and Li Hui escorting Li Ju forward.

In the midst of the excitement, Li Ju finally came to the bride's courtyard safely and chanted a hypnotic poem. Li Xin and the others happily shouted "Bride, urge out", without the bearing of an heir or a county king. Li Hui looked a little distracted, and suddenly heard the sound of the wind behind him, suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the attacking stick, and looked back-

Holding the stick was a little Langjun wearing a fiery red round-necked robe, who looked only seven or eight years old, the same age as the county lord of Changning. Li Hui thought that he was old, and he didn't take his move to heart, so he smiled and said: "Now that the bride is going to be urged out, it is a bad rule for you to wield the killing rod again." Moreover, it stands to reason that only a woman can stand up for the bride and kill her, and Xiao Langjun wants to fight. ”

That Xiao Langjun blushed, and knew that he had done wrong, and explained angrily: "Fang Cai didn't ...... any of them."

He was born very delicately, but his voice was very low, as if he wanted to deliberately highlight his bravery. Li Hui fixed his eyes and smiled: The An family only has two daughters, where did Xiao Langjun come from so much that he doesn't regard himself as an outsider? This must be the little daughter, right? "I've never heard of it, and I can sneak up and fight again without fighting. Anyway, if you are reluctant to sister, I will forgive you. However, the next is not an example. ”

Little Lady An was stunned, looked at him carefully with wide eyes, and then gave up the stick and turned to leave. It wasn't until the bride came out with a fan that Li Hui saw her change into a skirt and follow beside her, looking at her sister reluctantly.

The wedding car left from An's house and went all the way to the courtyard of Buzheng Fang. Because the second square is not far away, the greeting team specially went around a few more miles of square and encountered countless car obstacles. The bridegroom and the bridegroom complemented each other with civil and military strength, politely asking them to get out of the way, and threatening each other with force, and finally they all passed with joy and money.

When passing by Yankangfang, Li Hui vaguely felt a familiar gaze falling on him. However, he looked around, but did not find the figure of Wang Zixian in the surrounding crowd.

Of course, he didn't know that in a small restaurant on the street, the three brothers of the Wang family were sitting by the window, watching this grand wedding. The prince watched him ride away with determination, and suddenly the new son-in-law in front of the wedding car seemed to have changed into his appearance, which made him frown.

Wang Zi Ling looked enviously at the crown on his new son-in-law's body - Jiuhan, Tsing Yi, and Silk Dress, which are the dresses that can be worn by high-ranking officials and lords. In the court of the Tang Dynasty now, how many courtiers can wear such a dress to worship? And how many scholars who are studying in school have made wearing such a dress their lifelong goal?

"Tsk, royal people, just reincarnation is much better than us...... Even after the abolition of the crown prince, he can even have the scenery he has today......"

"Second brother speak carefully." Wang Zimu tightened his eyebrows, "Don't talk about the affairs of the heavenly family. ”

Wang Ziling also knew that he was speechless, but he just snorted lightly: "It's beautiful now, but I don't know how long it will last." ”

"No matter how long you can be beautiful, it has nothing to do with us." Wang Zixian glanced at him lightly, "You still have to think about how to worship the famous teacher." I can't get the quota of Guozixue and Taixue, but I can try the four courses. But there are few gentlemen and too many students, so it is better to apprentice. ”

"It's not okay to ask the Pu Wangfu to help?" Wang Ziling looked at him suspiciously, as if he felt that he hadn't tried his best at all, "Prince Tangtang, isn't it just a matter of words?" If my brother takes us to King Pu's Mansion to say hello, can I ask His Royal Highness King Pu to help me with this little favor? ”

Wang Zixian narrowed his eyes, and suddenly smiled: "The places of Guozixue and Taixue are not so easy to get. After all, King Pu is the only heir of King Pu who has served as the county commander for 10,000 years, and has no other connections. Moreover, I have only a few face-to-face relationships with the king of Xin'an County, and I have exhausted my friendship by being recommended by him to enter Guozixue. If Ah Di has a good method, he might as well teach me how to make the King of Xin'an County willing to go to great lengths to help people he doesn't know to disturb King Pu? How can King Pu be deeply impressed and willing to stand up for strangers in person? ”

"Since the eldest brother feels that it is very difficult, then there is no need to be embarrassed - let's go to worship the famous teacher." Wang Zimu hurriedly said, "No matter how friendly the king of Xin'an is, it is impossible to help him again and again. If Guozixue can enter with a word, where can we get our turn? And, didn't you say that the gentleman who worshipped Yang Zhuangtou in the first place was very famous? Why don't we give it a try? If you can enter the same door as the head, not to mention the examination of the scriptures, it will not be a problem to be admitted to the science department in the future. ”

"The third brother is right." Wang Zixian nodded, "These days, let's all go and inquire where that gentleman lives and what his preferences are for accepting disciples." When the time is right, we will go and meet you. ”

"Now that you've all decided, let's go." Seeing that the two of them looked at each other and smiled, Wang Ziling became more and more secretly hateful in his heart, and turned his head away and said no more.
